196. Return, new abilities

Dean, Catherine, Hope, and Shadow return the way they came, picking up little Sarah halfway.

Hope pleaded, "Man, it seems to me that you can do anything, to be honest, is there a way to bring Sarah back?" ”

Dean shook his head regretfully as he gripped the board in his arms and felt it.

In the real world, it can absorb and contain souls, but in the Spiritual Prison, its ability is not comparable to the rules of this world, and it cannot absorb these souls that have turned into entities.

"You want to bring her back to meet your ex-wife? But in the real world, ordinary people simply can't see ghosts with the naked eye. It's better to wait for the next opportunity, and I will help you take your family to Lingbo Prison for a short reunion. ”

"But that will soon be separated," said Hope, holding her little daughter in her arms, unsatisfied, "can't the family be together forever?" ”

Dean shook his head, his eyes turned between the father and daughter, and touched little Sarah's head.

"Don't you think it's selfish to do that? Sarah stays with you in the form of a ghost to satisfy your love for your family, but what about herself? Always be a young underdeveloped ghost, unable to enjoy food, sleep and dream, and not be able to experience the joy and bitterness of normal people in graduation, work, marriage and childbirth. ”

Hope glanced at the daughter in her arms, she looked confused, obviously didn't understand the meaning of Dean's words at all, which made Hope even more distressed.

"If it's time to let go, let it go, after the next reunion, send little Sarah to the door of the cycle, so that she can restart a complete life."

Hope's face turned pale, and he didn't give an immediate reply.

Then everyone's footsteps became more and more anxious, and the tireless ghost body almost ran all the way across the woodland surrounded by ancient trees, causing the forest spirits to cast surprised glancesβ€”

Time is meaningless in the Soul Thin Prison, why are you in such a hurry?

"Hurry up, hurry up, the door is about to close completely!"

Dean kept urging his companion, and the slab in his arms was trembling slightly, warning that time was running out.

"What happens if you don't get back in time?" Hope felt the light body of his daughter around his neck, and asked with a hint of anticipation,

"Our bodies will die quickly, and we will be completely captives of the Spiritual Prison!" Dean looked at the system, after staying in this ghost place for so many days, the charging progress of the Spirit Thin Hell Shuttle was only five percent, and he missed this opportunity to return, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait to go back, "I will never allow this to happen!" Fast! ”

The clock tree turned dozens of times, and everyone finally returned to the original place,

Hope put down her daughter on her shoulder, "Sarah, I promise to come back to see you soon, and next time I'll bring my mom." ”

The little girl wiped her tears and waved her little hand reluctantly, "Woo... I've been waiting for you, Jim, but don't keep me waiting. ”

"Quick, Hope, the tunnel will disappear soon."

"Goodbye, Sarah, goodbye my daughter."

"Goodbye Dad."

The father and daughter hugged each other and said goodbye, and then Hope shortened and followed Dean and the three into the dark triangular tunnel.

They didn't take a few steps...

Bang!

The branches and vines that supported the end of the tunnel snapped, and the ceiling slammed into the ground.

Thundered!

The entire tunnel triggered a domino effect, and from the last section onwards, it continued to collapse forward, like the giant mouth of a monster closing, constantly chasing the ass of the four Dean and biting forward, and the flying debris and sawdust fell on everyone's backs layer by layer, causing them to turn pale.

Run, run, run!

They ran for their lives, chasing behind them with a huge sense of oppression, every second seemed to be a kind of torture, and five minutes seemed to have passed five difficult years.

When they ran to the entrance of the tunnel, Dean's face sank, and there was only a ten-centimeter section of the black zipper that was originally two meters high perpendicular to the ground, and he couldn't get out at all!

Shet!

Dean rushed to the entrance, pulling his hands apart and pulling them to the sides, his full load of telekinesis pulling the black zipper slowly apart.

The whole tunnel shook the sky.

But it was too slow, it was too late, the zipper was only opened a gap just big enough for their heads, and the collapsed tunnel was already close to five meters behind them.

The rumble was deafening, and the black silhouette of the mountains swooped down on Hope's back, leaving his mind blank.

At this critical moment.

Ahhh

A series of childish, resolute growls came from beyond the cracks.

It contains thrilling magic, almost instantaneously opening all the black lines that Dean couldn't pull open with all his strength, completely penetrating the space and the barrier of space.

The tunnel that kept collapsing behind several people was even more rigidly frozen.

Outside the fully open gap, Owen's bathroom was exposed to Dean's eyes, and between the three unconscious bodies stood a petite figure in denim bib pants, with thin lips pursed, and bright eyes filled with a brighter light than the sun.

The light pours into the dark tunnel, bringing hope for life.

Dean, Hope, I'm here to save you!

Open!

The girl flicked her hand lightly.

The giant palm of telekinesis pushed the four of Dean out of the tunnel and into the real world.

Suddenly, the three translucent geisms were attracted by the darkness, and the flickering hazy glow returned to their own bodies.

The "shadow" flew back into the board.

Click!

The little girl let out a long sigh of relief and retracted her mind.

The door to the Spiritual Thin Prison in mid-air completely closed into a black line, and faded and disappeared in a second.

And in this dilapidated bathroom, there are shocked, surprised, and curious Latin teacher Owen, a helpless nanny Becky, an excited superpower Jane, and Dean who has completed the adventure.

"Hmm..." Dean opened his eyes, and the corners of Jane's mouth with slightly curly black hair were grinning tiredly and happily, and between her nose and upper lip, a caterpillar-like blood trail hung from it.

The girl who creates miracles can open the spatial rift with instinct alone.

Dean sighed and reached out to wipe her nosebleed, "Jane, you saved our lives, what reward do you want?!" ”

"It's good if you come back," Jane smiled proudly and hugged Dean hard, "As for the reward, I'll have to think about it." ”

On the other side, the director also woke up from his coma, got up to look at the surrounding situation, his eyes were in a trance, and the previous experience of almost being crushed to death flashed through his mind, and he took a deep breath in fear,

"Owen, how long have we been away?"

"Eight hours and thirty minutes, it's twelve o'clock in the morning."

Everyone was shocked, they had been in the Lingbo Prison for eight or nine days, and it was only more than eight hours here, and the time flow rate on the two sides was actually dozens of times different.

Hope staggered to support his numb body, and suddenly saw that excited little face, "Jane? Why are you here? ”

"I saw that you were in danger, so I asked my aunt to send me over to save you!"

"You saved us? But I'm not telling you to stay at Becky's house, why are you running around?! Hope rubbed his temples irritably at the thought of the complicated finishing touches, and looked at Jane sternly, "Do you know what will happen once you are exposed?" Don't mess around next time. ”

The little girl pouted aggrievedly,

"That's enough, Director, Jane saved our lives, we should reward her!" Dean retorted, and turned his gaze to Catherine, a sleeping beauty with a serene face.

Finally, after all the hardships, the female reporter snorted lightly, opened her big bright eyes, frowned, and her eyes were intertwined with pain, exhaustion, and dazedness, and then as soon as she looked up, she reached out and grabbed Dean in surprise,

"Dean, what happened to me?"

Dean helped her up,

"Dear Catherine, you just had a nightmare, and now that you wake up, everything is back on track..."

……

An hour later.

While Jane and Betsy are left in the living room by the sheriff, Owen begins secrecy training with his stern warning, and discusses the repair of the bathroom.

Dean sent Catherine home.

After a simple wash, Catherine changed into close-fitting white pajamas, her slender legs rested on his thighs, her towering sternum pressed against her chest, her eyes flashed, and she murmured,

"It was as if I had traveled to hell, with white smoke like sulfur and wild animals everywhere, and I was hung by the goat-people on the edge of a cliff and subjected to terrible punishment."

Catherine raised her head from Dean's arms, with fear on her pretty face, but there was a hint of anticipation in her eyes, "Are these real?" ”

"It's all an illusion created by the goat-man, in order to penetrate your psychological defenses and completely take away your soul," Dean felt the softness and elasticity of the huddle in his arms, and his lips touched her smooth forehead,

"But the goat-man is real, right?" Catherine pursed her lips unwillingly,

"Yes, but I've destroyed it for you, and you'll never have to worry about it haunting you again, Catherine, you're cured of your strange illness."

A trace of gratitude and irrepressible emotion flashed in the woman's eyes, and she grabbed him by the collar,

"Prove it to me!"

Dean leaned over and cupped her blushing face, feeling the sweet and burning breath.

Thoughts are like electricity in my head.

Obviously, I have experienced so much: crossing the plane, fighting the goats in blood, touching the gate of circulation, and almost being crushed to death by the collapsed plane tunnel.

But I don't know if it's the reason for the rapid narrowing of the gap between the will and the spirit after the surge, all the experiences just passed by in the heart, and they didn't leave too many traces to affect Dean's emotions.

Even when he took the initiative to recall the concepts of Midian, Paph, and other concepts that made him mad, he did not produce any auditory hallucinations or discomfort.

Even at this moment, he didn't have much fluctuation in his heart, just enjoyed the intimacy easily and put his attention into the system:

Meditation Lv2β†’ Lv3 (0/400)

You have received a gift of "Infinite Wisdom" and "Eternal Power" from the Red Dragon.

You have +1, 6/6β†’6/7 skill slots.

Will +0.9, Will: 17.7β†’18.6.

At this time, the will is completely balanced with the spirit.

Dean's eyes flashed with a cold light like ice, and his past life experiences and countless streams of information slid in front of him like lightning, but his mind was rock-like and motionless, and his emotions did not fluctuate in the slightest.

The clutter of distractions is gone.

Out of the darkness came the deepest wish of his heart:

Become stronger, transcend the law of convergence, and have true freedom.

Find Lena and Light.

These two purposes are more important than anything else.

Call... Suck...

Dean opened his eyes and looked at Catherine, whose eyes were closed and trembling in front of her, and lowered her head to her white neck.

The woman's fingernails sank into his skin.

Incident – "Reynolds' Purpose":

You have found out the truth, the prodigal son in order to repay the favor and avenge the death of the exorcist parents, carefully arranged to give his life to exorcise the evil goat man in Catherine's body.

But because you and the police investigation inadvertently sabotage his setup, the exorcism fails and Reynolds is wiped out.

Realizing your mistake and making amends, you break into the Prison to avenge Reynolds' blood, complete the exorcism, and save Catherine.

Event completion – 170 percent.

You can withdraw your rewards at any time.

"It seems that only by saving Reynolds in the first place can we achieve 200 percent completion."

Extract.

XP +190, Personal Level Lv5 (210β†’400/700)

Depending on the degree of completion, you can choose two special rewards from the following.

A. Superpower "Abyss": Your will holds all the light in a certain area, so that the rest of the existence in the area except you fall into a state of absolute darkness and disorientation.

The lost will spontaneously stare at the only source of light, your eyes, and be tested by your soul, and those who are less willful than you will follow your will and fall into a state of absence, coma, soul detachment, or even soul collapse.

Note: Activating this ability requires 15 Will.

Increasing this ability will increase the Will stat by a small amount.

B. Superpower "Healing of the Will": Use the container of the will to contain your body and soul, so that they can quickly return to the intact state before the injury, and the effect is proportional to the will. The stronger the injury, the longer the cooldown time after the skill is activated.

Increases this ability by slightly increasing your Will stat.

C. Superpower "Soul Parasitism": Your soul can leave your body at any time and possess other targets whose will is lower than you.

You will perceive all his memories and thoughts, and exert subtle influence to transform him into a slave to your word, and in the end, you will even be able to devour his soul and strengthen yourself.

At present, parasitism is limited to humans.

Note: It takes 25 Willpower to activate this ability.

Increases this ability by slightly increasing your Will stat.

D.1 Point Free Attributes.

……

"Three will-like superpowers, the goat-man with green eyes is actually a monster with a will specialty rather than a mental specialty."

Dean suddenly realized that the will is no less important to the soul than the spirit, and that the will is high enough to evolve many incredible magical abilities.

……

Back to the point, although you can choose two rewards, Dean only got one skill bar for meditating on the upgrade just now, so you can only choose one of the superpower rewards.

A has both field control and lethality, and it is a group skill. Mastering it, Dean can quietly make the target ineffective without punching or kicking.

Dean currently has more willpower than ninety-nine percent of humans and other creatures, and there is no pressure to use this ability.

Focus on investigation.

Item B is equivalent to over-speeding self-healing, and it affects not only the body but also the mysterious soul, and its effect exceeds the mimetic changes that can only heal physical injuries.

It's just that I don't know how long the cooldown time will take after use.

Consideration.

C Soul Parasitism, which can freely flip through the target's memories and obtain information from them.

But its greatest effect is to turn the owner into an immortal and immortal evil spirit.

After being severely injured and weakened, you can use this ability to change your body to continue to survive, and you can also devour the souls of others to improve yourself.

This was the most perverted ability Dean had ever seen, and if he could, he would have chosen it out, but the 25-point will limit kept him out.

It can only be ruled out through pain.

Finally, choose between A's area of effect and control and B's quick reply.

Dean made a decision based on his heart-

I choose A and D.

"Dean, Dean..." The burning call in his ears woke Dean, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Catherine's white and delicate skin was stained with a layer of "hot rouge", and her eyes were flowing with intoxicated water, "Carry me to the room..."

"Yes, ma'am."

Soon, Catherine's blonde hair waterfell and swayed like seaweed.
