Chapter 1244: One-year period
"What's the problem?" asked Eric.
"Why are you ...... all of a sudden?" replied Wuqi, but was interrupted by Eric before he could finish his sentence.
I saw Eric's eyes flash, as if he had guessed Wuqi's thoughts, nodded, and said, "Why did you suddenly become friendly to you, right?"
Wuqi nodded, responding in silence.
"It's actually quite simple, because I want to study the soul of the mind. Eric replied frankly.
"Research?" Wuqi listened, and suddenly showed a puzzled look, looking at Eric in confusion.
Eric smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said, "Don't think about it. I'm talking about research that doesn't hurt you, I'm just curious about the soul of the mind. Because, this kind of soul should not exist in the first place, and when Emperor Yan told me, I always believed that it was a soul that could not be born.
But, at the same time, I was actually looking forward to the birth of this kind of soul, because then I could study carefully why such a soul was born. You've been in Hell for a short time, haven't you? At least you know some of the world's secrets when you come here, right?
Hell is the place where the soul is in charge, and the simple understanding is that any soul will be controlled by our hell, even if he has not yet come to hell, for example, to live well in the world, but as long as we want, we can take that person's life at any time, so that the life opportunity is lost, the soul returns, and returns to the place where the soul belongs, that is, we come to hell.
This is hell, and the master who governs all the souls in the world is none other than our master of hell, Lord Yama. However, Emperor Yan said that the soul of the mind was actually a storage that was difficult for him to control, so I was interested and wanted to study it well. Now do you understand why?"
After hearing this, Wuqi suddenly realized that it was all because Eric was suddenly so friendly to him, he had become an anomaly, an anomaly different from any soul, just like the sudden appearance of a certain being in the world that broke people's cognition. There must be a large number of people who want to capture it and study it carefully. That's what I'm doing.
Even, so to speak, if you are not the soul of the mind, then. This Eric had already killed himself with so many clones just now. Instead of going out of their way to explain so much to themselves. I wouldn't be so excited to make friends with myself. This is the reason why we are in the current situation.
Thinking of this, Wuqi nodded. Knowing that Eric wasn't going to be in danger to him again, he said, "I see. Then you want to study me, I promise you is. I'm not here to play, though, and I'd like you to set a deadline for me and my friends to leave after that, okay?"
"Leave? Oh, do you want to go to the sixth hell? I'm in charge of it too, and if I say a word, you can go there right away, and it's not that difficult. After hearing this, Eric nodded with satisfaction, not thinking about it at all, he thought that Wuqi's destination was only the sixth layer.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Eric was stunned, because the answer given by Wuqi made him very shocked.
"Nope. Wuqi shook his head and said, "Lord Blood Demon, I don't just want to go to the sixth layer. My destination is the last level, the eighteenth level of hell. β
As soon as these words came out, Eric was suddenly startled, his eyes suddenly changed, and the whole person immediately looked at Wuqi without blinking with the eyes of a monster, and asked in disbelief: "You...... Boy, are you sure you're not joking with me?
"That's right. Wuqi nodded seriously and said.
"Can you tell me why? boy, don't say I didn't warn you. Lord Yama, it's not like you can see it if you want to. Besides, even if Emperor Yama agrees with you, you may not be qualified to talk to him, and you have a lot of hell to break through before you meet him, are you sure you can meet Emperor Yama?" asked Eric, with a look of deep puzzlement.
Wuqi smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Of course I'm not sure." After all, it's only my first time in hell, but I'm going to keep going, and I won't give up even if there are more and more obstacles ahead, because I have a reason why I have to go on, and that's my answer. β
After hearing this, Eric was silent, not that he really agreed with Wuqi, nor did he see from Wuqi's answer that the other party's thinking was a little too naΓ―ve, or even stupid, but that he was shocked by Wuqi's focused and determined eyes when he said this.
He had only seen that kind of look in the eyes of one person, that was the Lord of Hell, it had been a long time since the last time he met the Lord of Hell, but until now he remembers it clearly, how firm and awe-inspiring the eyes of the Lord of Hell were at that time.
Especially when the Lord of Hell uttered the words that impressed Eric to this day, the focused, confident and determined gaze was shocking.
"Eric, maybe my inference isn't necessarily correct. However, I believe that such a soul will be born. Because there is no such thing as a complete absolute thing in this world, since we hell can control the soul in the world, then there will definitely be a soul that we cannot control in hell.
That is the soul of the mind. It was like an exception to anything that happened, and the soul of the mind was an accident. It may not be born now, and it may not be born in another 100, 1000, or even 10,000 years, but I believe that it will be born one day. β
That's right, it will be born someday.
It was this last sentence that made Eric change his impression of Wuqi at this moment, he no longer regarded Wuqi as a reckless person who bravely entered hell, but as a guardian of hell who could be equal to himself. Because, Wuqi's current gaze gave him the same sense of awe as the Lord of Hell.
Eric, though I'm not sure I'll ever meet the Lord of Hell right now. But if you keep at it, I'm sure we'll see it one day.
That's right, it's this "someday" that moved Eric.
"Good. Now that you already have such an idea, it doesn't make sense for me to persuade you more. Still, I'll keep you for a while for me to study the Soul of Mind. Well, how about you give me a year?" asked Eric.
"A year?"
"Yes. You give me a year to study the soul of your mind, but you don't have to worry too much. I will also do my best to help you throughout the year. Since you're going to go to the last layer of hell, then. It's not enough to rely on your current strength.
The time of the year. I'll also help you improve as much as possible, and then, when the one-year deadline is up, I'll let you go. Allows you to skip the sixth layer of hell directly. Go to the seventh floor. What do you think?" explained Eric.
This is definitely the answer that no wonder dreamed of, a year here is not a long time, and. This year's time for me to get Eric's guidance is definitely much better than leaving this layer of hell now.
As soon as he thought of this, Wuqi almost didn't hesitate to agree to Eric, but at the moment when he was about to speak, Eric's face changed suddenly, and in an instant, the whole person seemed to have changed into something particularly frightening, and he trembled violently, revealing a look of horror that he had never seen before.
What the hell is going on? Isn't Eric the master of this layer of hell?Why did the ruler suddenly become so frightened? What did he see?
Wuqi was puzzled for a moment, but before he could speak, he heard a sharp, piercing and penetrating voice, which suddenly sounded behind him.
"Hehehehe...... Hey, hey, hey...... Hum Hum Hum ...... Eric, you're doing a great job of blood, don't you want to keep doing it? You're so bold to meet a living person who trespasses into Hell and not kill him. Aren't you afraid that Emperor Yan will condemn you?"
Hearing this voice, Wuqi immediately turned his head and looked behind him, but at first glance, he was not a little depressed.
Because, he did see a person appear behind him in a silent way, and that person immediately approached him in a ghostly way, giving people a feeling of strength at the same time, it was also very dangerous, but the strange thing was that this person was hiding in a cloak, all his facial features were firmly covered by darkness, and he couldn't see the person's appearance clearly anyway, which was where Wuqi was depressed.
However, the depressed mood did not last long, just for a moment, Wuqi's face changed greatly, his body was shocked, obviously he did not receive any attack, but his mind was as if he had suddenly suffered a terrible blow, and his legs were even more unstable on his feet, like a powerless feather, which was blown high by an indescribable force, and flew backwards.
At the same time, just as Wuqi flew out upside down, "Bang bang bang...... Bang bang......" A dull loud sound echoed from his body one after another, and his body trembled violently involuntarily, and the whole person was like being pierced through the body by spears one after another, starting from the head, and quickly giving birth to one blood hole after another through the front and back.
These incessant muffled sounds are the sounds made after the body has been pierced by something unnecessary.
This scene happened so weirdly, and it was too fast, so that while Wuqi was taken aback, he couldn't help but be a little scared. Because, he didn't know how he became like this, obviously he had already reacted fast enough, and he directly used the power of his mind and breath to protect it as soon as he noticed that something was wrong, but it still didn't work.
Who the hell is this man? What a terrible power! Could it be that he is the Lord of Hell? Otherwise, how could Eric suddenly be so frightened?
As soon as he thought of this, he was startled, he never expected to meet the person he met the most here, although he was still frightened, but at the same time of fright, as time went by, he couldn't help but be a little excited.
But before he could be happy, the cruel truth gave him a painful blow, because at this moment, Eric spoke, and as soon as he spoke, he completely shattered Wuqi's illusion and pulled Wuqi back to reality.
"Beyer, why are you here? This is my territory, although you are stronger than me, but if you leave your jurisdiction without permission, are you not afraid that I will sue you for leaving your post without permission in front of Lord Yama?" said Eric's eyes were cold, and his voice was low.
