Chapter 63: Finding the Murderer

"Your Majesty, forgive me for being unaccompanied, and please summon me if necessary."

Sensing the arrival of a visitor, Director Jon leaned over to report the black sharpness, and then left silently. The visitor did not appear in the reception room, but waited directly outside the door, and in fact the visitor was also the little master of the palace, and it was his freedom to meet the steward wherever he wanted. He is none other than Anigil, who has now grown up and has become the Pope of Souls.

"What is the matter with Your Highness?" Chief Jont saluted before asking. His Royal Highness did not inform Black Sharp Sharp, but went directly to the chief manager, which was obviously for private matters.

"Grandpa," said Anigil, who had not forgotten his past title to the steward, even though he was in a high position: "I have recovered my childhood memories in meditation, and it turns out that I once had a nurse named Wumu. ”

Jon shook his head and said, "Your Highness, your eyes are bloodshot and your face is pale now, you must have overdrawn your spiritual power. ”

"That's not important! She was my biological mother, and she was killed! But her father didn't avenge her! ”

"The past is in the past, Your Highness, your life has just begun, there is no need to dwell on the past."

"The past is condensed into memory, and memory accompanies us throughout our lives, as a spiritual imprint, deeply ingrained in our souls. If I were to give up my memory of my mother, it would be like giving up my own ...... This is a betrayal of myself! ”

In the face of the loud speech, the chief manager groaned for a while and said, "I understand." Your Highness, not only have you become an adult on **, but your spirit has also grown. Are you going to find out the killer? ”

Annigil nodded.

"It's been a long time, and the murderer may have left our country."

"If that's the case, it's good to find a clue."

"I'm afraid you haven't investigated anyone else, have you? Am I the first suspect? ”

"On the contrary, grandpa, you are the first person I excluded. You have been absolutely loyal to your father, and you have never wavered even when Saramonroe returns. ”

…………

When His Majesty appeared in the Underground Palace......

Jont raised his head high, his face was cold, and his voice was unwavering: "I am only loyal to the Kingdom of Salamonro in this life. If you unify the Sea of Bones and rebuild the Kingdom of Saramonro, I will naturally join you and give everything to you. ”

His Majesty breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's what you said. ”

"Yes, the kings of Salamonro bear witness to me." Jont held out a finger and scratched it across his chest. It is the highest vow of the Salamonroes, and once it has been issued, it cannot be broken, especially for the aristocracy that values its glorious traditions.

…………

Thinking back on the past, the steward smiled, "That's true. I owe allegiance to Your Majesty, to the Twilight Empire. ”

"Your father's interests are higher than yours. And mom is a subordinate created by his father with [soul replacement], and basically he will not betray his father, so you don't have any motive to kill mom. ”

"Very sensible reasoning." The steward replied.

"Do you have any suspicions?"

"Your Majesty knows as well as I do that the assassination of Wumu is for the protection of **. The killer did not want His Majesty to take full control of the 'City of Waiting', which led to a second assassination. ”

"The second?"

"It can only be said to be suspicious, because the soul fire made the demon escape. The incident is undetermined, and not many people know about it, but His Majesty is very sure that it is a new assassination. ”

…………

At the end of His Majesty's first visit......

As soon as the [Soul Force Field] was opened, a blue fireball swooped towards His Majesty's side, and it turned out to be a soul fire demon. This little thing slammed into His Majesty's arms, making him a little surprised: "Huh? What's going on? I didn't look for you, why did you come here on your own? ”

Brian said, "The Soul Fire Demon likes to be close to people with strong souls, so it's not surprising to get close to you directly."

"No, there's a problem!" Feeling that the little guy in his arms was trembling violently, His Majesty frowned, looked at the corner of the soul force field, and said loudly: "Your Excellency wants to hurt my subordinates? ”

No one responded.

His Majesty summoned a Skyweb Spider, rushed there, and began to check for clues. No footprints, no hair, no residual wavelengths, it's pretty clean here. He summoned a few more of his passers-by, one of whom said he vaguely saw a figure wandering, but the others did not see it. It's as if that person only exists in fantasy and never appears at all.

"It was Your Excellency who killed Wumu, right! Your Excellency has not made a soul pact with me, because I believe that no one among my subordinates will harm my colleagues! His Majesty shouted, and the wavelength traveled far away.

Still no one responded.

After a while, Xue Duocai said, "Host, that person is already gone, right?" ”

"You know, Xue Duo, he must still be in the 'City of Waiting', waiting for the best time. For the sake of Wumu, I will find out about him. His Majesty held the soul fire demon with a calm expression.

…………

"Your Highness, your father has never given up avenging the black mother."

"I blame him?"

"Yes. Can escape the eyes of the Necromantic King, the murderer you are looking for is so powerful. If you ask me who I am going to choose, I can only say that I want that person to be Schroeder.6 Bray. Of course, if you ask him, he won't say anything. ”

"Thank you, I asked everything I wanted to ask. May the soul God take care of you. ”

Annigil saluted and turned to leave.

Above the sea, the ghost fleet, the flagship "Lanhui", on the deck.

"Xue Duo. I'm wondering, why don't otherworldly creatures have souls? Have you ever thought about this? ”

Facing Qingyi's question, several black question marks popped up in the shadow: "Host, I thought you were going to ask me about the 'law' and 'domain'?" ”

"Recently, the Dark Church has made a new discovery, saying that your otherworldly creatures are creatures that only have a spirit imprint and no soul." As if he hadn't heard Xue Duo's words, Qingyi said to himself: "Indeed! You have [parasitism], I remember who came from, formalin, didn't you master a very powerful technique? ”

**Formalin, the Sewer: Level 67, Spider (Otherworldly creature). Formalin is a fusion spider. (omittedly) recently independently developed a new technology that can [parasitize] otherworldly organisms on vertebrates. It is very proud of this technology, and hopes to one day promote it in the other world, so that the leader will notice its small self. (omitted)

"I was thinking, why can you [parasitize] perfectly? If you are seen as an alien spiritual imprint, it is easy to understand that you are simply sharing souls with your host. Speaking of the puzzling [sucking], you can suck the player's attributes, which I see as 'incomplete parasitism', or in short, a 'infestation'. You injected fragments of the spirit imprint into the target's body, 'limiting' the target's attributes, but the name of the skill [Sucking] is so confusing that it looks like you are 'stripping' the attributes. If it is parasitized by you, then it is the same as the 'carrier', and the target is under your control. Why am I so associated? It's because of ghosts. Ghosts have a strong spiritual imprint, and they can be possessed. ”

Xue Duo stretched out two shadow hands and applauded: "Go on, go on." ”

"I certainly have proof. Necromantic creatures can resist your [sucking] and can also resist [parasitism], because the spiritual imprint of the necromantic creature is closely integrated with the soul fire, and your spiritual imprint has no way to interfere at all, and may even be bound by the host's body in turn, such as you, you can't do without me at all. In the first 'Doomsday Encounter', the necromantic creatures played a huge role, and it was because we restrained you perfectly. Your essence is a spiritual imprint, so only the Necromantic King has developed the application method of 'seriously ill people', why? It's because other races are far inferior to us in the study of the soul. ”

After a pause, Qingyi said again:

"I talked to Diesel. What is the soul? Is it an intellectual difference that humans have souls and insects have no souls? So, when I picked up Anigil, he was still a baby waiting to be fed, was he intelligent? Not at all! Babies only have instincts, and even if they have souls, they are weak flames. So now Annie Gill, he has a soul, how did his soul come to be? It's a spiritual imprint. The bits and pieces of his growth are his precious life experiences, which have formed his personality and worldview. It is difficult to imagine that a spiritual imprint can exist apart from the soul. ”

"What are you trying to say? I was almost asleep when I heard it. Xue Duo asked.

"I'm thinking, Xerdor, otherworldly creatures may have souls, but this soul doesn't accompany you. I remember that in your legends, you were shatters of ashes that had burned out...... Assuming that all of your otherworldly creatures are fragments of something, then it is not impossible for you to assign a spiritual imprint, which holds your soul. Qingyi looked at the full moon in the sky.

Xue Duoha laughed: "Host, I think you really have a talent for making up stories!" I'm almost convinced! Then again, how did you suddenly become interested in these questions? ”

"It's not a sudden idea, I've always felt that necromantic creatures and otherworldly creatures don't have to be opposed to each other."

"Even if you restrain us perfectly?"

"You can also understand that the two sides can work together. If I regard you as an additional spiritual imprint of mine, my combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced, just like the 'seriously ill people' of the past. ”

"Give up, how many times have I told you!" Xue Duo waved his hand: "This is not the opposition of two races, it is the opposition of two worlds!" ”

"And how do you explain your performance these few times?" Qingyi asked with a smile.

"Haha, how good my relationship with you is, how can I compare! Come, host, who will be the target of special training this time? ”

"Of course, it's the other side of the lotus flower."

The shadow pinched the lifelike Red Lotus Witch, and the shadows danced all over the ground, like a sea of fire.
