Chapter 72: The Origin of the Transfigurers
The scene in front of him was exactly the same as what Heine saw in the "fish pond" in the underground secret room of the Lord's Palace.
Those silver fragments of light were the primordial spirits that helped Mr. Sa recover.
But Barry clearly couldn't see that.
At the same time, in Heine's mind, the two were desperately calling.
However, Mr. Sa did not react as if he was asleep.
Barry walked up to Mr. Sa's soul flame and stared at the unadulterated silver flame, his eyebrows furrowed.
"That's not right...... It's still a soul quality, and there is no soul access, so could it be that the reaction just now was all done under control?
"No, no, no, this is obviously impossible, excluding the possibility of spirit souls and heroic souls, there is only one result left......
"The consciousness that controls the soul is hidden within the soul? Could it be that the zombies themselves are conscious? But how can this be ......?"
Soul.
The last time I heard this word was after pouring Naga with soul-losing water.
At that time, along with the murderous spirit of the primordial spirit, they all burrowed into the body of the master, and his soul manifested into a soul substance and was expelled from the body.
And in the process, Naga is in the same situation as the dying shapeshifters outside.
The body was covered in silver shatters, but it had not yet coalesced into silver spots.
"What the hell are you researching?" Heine couldn't help but ask.
Barry was still immersed in his world, as if he hadn't heard Heine at all.
He is working backwards, refining, and dismantling the problem step by step.
As a result, self-talk gradually returned from the nouns Heine did not understand to the most essential and basic content.
Barry is a master, and he says these things as simply as teaching a man how to eat with a spoon.
It was as if he was telling another self who didn't know anything about it, or re-checking the process.
Heine could understand it now.
Undead summoning is essentially a "lease" from the underworld to attach a geist to the body of the deceased.
And the zombie is as he thinks, the carrier of the soul.
Barry's research is how to transfer the souls of living people to "zombies".
This is the most crucial step in breaking the cycle of life and death.
The reason why the soul of a living person cannot exist independently is because the attraction of the underworld and the shadow world is everywhere.
It's the rule.
But geyers from the underworld can ignore the Shadow Realm.
This is also the reason why Hades is called a false god by the people of the Shadow Temple.
He was an introgressor.
Sanatos diverts the souls of the dead who should have belonged to the Lady of the Dead.
They are then rented out at an extremely "cheap" price.
But the greedy necromancer wants to go further.
They didn't even want to pay this rent, so they had two paths.
Becoming a Lich is one of them.
Barry came up with the second one.
He also removed the faint consciousness attached to these souls, leaving only the remaining soul essence.
This results in a Zombie.
Then the living can parasitize their consciousness on the zombie and exist in this world in the form of a soul.
He has not given up his body, but his soul has soared.
The biggest difference between him and the Lich is that he has eternal life without becoming a "dead man".
And the carrier can be constantly changed.
This is undoubtedly the necromancer's version of "snatching".
Of course, there are many problems with the implementation of such a great idea.
One of the biggest problems is that Barry's deconstruction circle has limited accuracy.
It is true that the circle not only separates the body and the soul, but also splits the soul into consciousness and soul matter.
It's a pity that it's limited to the revenants of the beast for now.
Because the beast follows its instincts perfectly, the consciousness of the revenant's attachment is even weaker, and it is almost impossible to eliminate it.
So Barry can only make beast zombies.
And when the consciousness of a living person is attached to the beast figurines, it can dominate two bodies at the same time.
That's where the shapeshifters in the hall come from......
So the Transfiguration School was actually necromancy at the earliest!
As for how their bodies are "compressed", Barry did not say.
Now, the conundrum before Barry is:
When he separated his soul from his body, his soul took on a pure soul form.
In other words, Mr. Sa's soul cannot be split in the next step......
It's already a zombie.
Pure, immaculate.
Zombies without a hint of self-awareness.
Cleaner than animals.
Is this possible?
That's impossible!
As a veteran necromancer, Barry knew better than anyone what that battle was about.
The handling of the details of the battle between these three skeletons could not have come from the control of the necromancer.
No one's "micro-manipulation" can be so fine.
The skeleton in front of him must have a sense of self, at least a sense of battle.
And such a complex consciousness is now completely eliminated......
If he can do this, he can "take away" everyone!
It's nothing short of a miracle!
Coupled with the feather and the fact that they could get in, he guessed that the other party had something to do with Sabellia.
Could it be that Sabellia has achieved research that she couldn't even do herself!?
Heine was able to answer this question......
Because Mr. Sa's consciousness is asleep.
He didn't know where their consciousness had gone when they slept and dreamed, and it wasn't in the soul fire anyway.
In a way, Barry is now infinitely closer to the right answer.
This deconstruction circle of his even has some of the characteristics of the Yuan Spirit Circle......
If the Yuan Ling Array is a plug-in, then he has already walked on the road of simulating a plug-in.
This is undoubtedly an incredible achievement.
It's just that no matter how much he thinks about it, he can't guess that there is such a thing as a traverser......
Seeing that Barry might crack if he thought about it any longer, Heine hurriedly spoke:
"Is it possible that consciousness is asleep? So undetectable? ”
In front of him is a "human relic" who can speak of the Grand Duke of McCarall.
Combined with the fact that the other party is suspected of being "imprisoned" here.
He has reason to believe that the other side is a potential ally.
Maybe he's been locked up here by the Night Elves to mass-produce shapeshifters.
"Consciousness sleeping?"
Barry was stunned suddenly, and then his eyes suddenly appeared:
"Makes sense...... Makes sense, genius design.
"Even consciousness needs rest, and soul is undoubtedly the cradle of the finest......
"Yuan Ling, yes, yes, Yuan Ling can make up for the friction damage caused by the active soul period, so that you don't even have to replace the zombie as often.
"So he's slowly recovering now? Damn, my Yuan Spirit affinity is so bad that I can't see ...... at all."
"I can feel it." Heine spoke, "The primordial spirit is merging into his soul and making up for his shortfall, you guessed right. ”
Barry was stunned: "You really can?" ”
Heine nodded: "I summoned them, I strengthened them, and I communicated with them.
"I have done everything you can think of, what you can't do, you let go of me first, and we'll talk slowly."
Barry was skeptical: "Can you feel the emotions of the primordial spirits involved in the deconstruction of the magic circle?" ”
Heine approached the base of the circle, but was stopped by a wall.
This familiar feeling has also been felt by him on the control module of the Floating City.
It should be some kind of encryption.
"Your circle is locked."
syllable
Barry slapped his head.
"I'll do it."
He removes the barrier that separates perception, and Heine tries again.
There is indeed a feeling of the Yuan Spirit Array.
But if the Yuan Ling Circle is a large piece of boiled beef, then the circle in front of you is a beef broth without meat.
The taste is there, but the meat is really not.
But Heine could still hear the sparse lala.
"I'm tired ~~~ I'm tired ~~~"
"Yuan Ling is tired." He replied.
"That's ...... so"
Barry touched his chin thoughtfully.
"It's no wonder that the circle has been getting slower and slower lately, and the response speed is also slow, and it is useless to replace so many parts......"
He paused suddenly: "What about the primordial spirits on those shapeshifters outside?" ”
Heine didn't answer, signaling that he should do something.
Barry lifted the mage's grip.
"Can you feel it?"
Heine nodded: "They are in pain, crying for help. So ...... those people in the end?"
"Sure enough, something is wrong here......"
Barry smiled a little nervously.
But in a flash, it quickly became calm.
"Fusion. Their bodies are merging.
"The primordial spirit is a universal particle that can achieve all the purposes of the spell, and any spell is originally based on the imitation of the primordial spirit's behavior.
Sebitiga did the same.
"When I stuff the soul of a human into the Beast Zombie, the soul begins to 'merge' as a blueprint, and the body merges with it.
"But the process was far more complicated than I had imagined, and I had hoped that the Yuan Spirit would fulfill my wish and allow me to observe the true method...... There are no shortcuts to research. ”
Barry said it all with a blank expression.
No guilt, no compassion, no chagrin.
Nothing.
Heine: "Is this your wish or is it a goal imposed on you?" ”
Barry shook his head.
"It doesn't matter anymore, too many memories just make me old. I only write down what I have to do. ”
He suddenly patted Heine on the shoulder.
"You're nice, honest, candid, and a good boy like my youngest son."
Heine was speechless for a moment.
However, the thought that his seniority is not many times higher than Dylan's does not seem to be unacceptable.
Barry returned to the stone chair, his gaze sweeping over the other two skeletons.
Especially the Guardian Kite.
"Annihilation...... The smell of obsidian, have you been exposed to those northerners? ”
"It's not just touched."
Heine wanted to think of Timeno Gittil, but when he thought about it, the two were hundreds of years apart, and it was impossible for them to know each other.
But he still gave it all.
“…… That's why I'm here, the former crypt of Sabellia. ”
After a pause, he asked, "So what is your relationship with Jungle Wind?" ”
"Relationship?"
Barry thought about it.
"At first, it was probably the relationship between the kidnappers and the hostages, then the relationship between the employer and the researcher, and then the relationship between the missing person and the inheritance...... As for now, I don't know, I haven't seen him in a long time. ”
It's been a long time...... Nearly a thousand years.
"Can you tell me?" Heine asked.
Barry shook his head.
"It was about hatred, anger, and I stripped away all these strong negative emotions, and the thing was forgotten.
"I'm not going to reach out to those, that would accelerate me into the underworld, and become a lich before the research is realized.
"But I wrote something before I made that decision, you can look it up on the bookshelf over there.
"Now I'm going to do my research, don't bother me."
He waved his hand, and Mr. Sa's soul returned to his body.
"Yes."
Heine walked over to the bookshelf and rummaged through it.
