What does it feel like to die?

Even in the entire multiverse, there are not many people who can personally describe this kind of feeling, because the self-aware undead are actually only transformed into their own life forms when they die physically, and they have not really 'died', and the dead who have really died and resurrected are not the dead person at all, so they are not in person, and the people who have died and resurrected are even rarer, and they need to be extremely powerful, at least with the help of the legendary power, to have a certain chance of being able to do it.

But Nameless is fortunate to be a rare 'resurrection from the dead' in the entire multiverse.

The feeling of death was nothing, and when the nameless maintenance worker lifted the furnace ray emitter to destroy his brain in a desperate calm, he simply died neatly, and seventy-three seconds after his death, his wandering soul began to gradually decompose in the atmosphere, like his corpse that should have been decomposed by various microbacteria a few days later.

He has been accepted by death, and at the moment when his soul is completely broken, the nameless mechanic has been completely dead, but, even death, in this multiverse, is not absolute, everything is possible, as long as the strength is strong enough, both death and fate will be trampled underfoot.

As it is now, the shattered soul that hovers in the abyss of the soul is reunited in the silver light, he coalesces into one, and then returns to his body—the nameless mechanic opens his eyes in a trance, and what he sees is a strange ceiling.

"Are you awake?"

He heard a calm and deep male voice: "It seems that I have repaired it well, and you have been resurrected completely." ”

Who is it?

The nameless mechanic instinctively wanted to ask, but because he hadn't communicated with anyone for many years, and his current body had changed from before, he didn't speak smoothly, but coughed heavily several times.

That's right, the body! When he noticed that his body was different from before, the nameless mechanic immediately noticed that his current body was very different from before, in short, he was much younger...... No, it's a direct reversal to the time when you were a teenager and a minor!

"It's a little too young to accidentally overexert your head."

The calm male voice continued, as if describing a minor mistake in an experiment, with a hint of annoyance: "And the body structure of the Siboya people is not adapted to the world of Microf, so I took it upon myself to give you a new set of respiratory and circulatory organs. ”

It was only at this time, with a dazed face, that the nameless mechanic, who had just escaped from death, had the strength to raise his head, look in the direction where the voice appeared, and take in his surroundings by the way.

He saw that he was lying on a white flat surface similar to the maintenance table in the maintenance workshop, and a silver pillar of light fell from the sky, enveloping him and the entire operating table, in fact, the entire maintenance table was floating in the air and did not touch the ground.

The surroundings were clean and tidy, it could never be the repair workshop where he committed suicide, all four walls were silver, all seemed to be forged from metal, the nameless mechanic could faintly see the flow of magic on these metal walls, every time the faint blue light flickered, all the dust in the surrounding air was absorbed, and there was no residue.

Of course, that's not the most important thing, the nameless mechanic let out a breath, he shook his head a little dumbfounded, and then focused his eyes on the being standing directly in front of him.

It was a man in a white robe, but so tall that even loose medical clothes could not cover it at all, ordinary people would wear a wide and flowing white coat, and even gave people the illusion of a vest, and the other party's face with strong lines revealed an almost tangible and qualitative majesty, almost making the nameless mechanic who had just done it lie back down.

In fact, he did lie down again, but Nameless quickly sat up straight again, and he even jumped off the operating table that was still floating in mid-air, and then helped it to stand up straight.

“…… I'm dead. ”

After barely being able to stand still without relying on the operating table, the nameless mechanic was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I remember very well, I burned my brain with a furnace ray...... According to medical knowledge, I would have died, but you saved me. ”

He looked around at the operating table, which was already clean and tidy and free of other clutter, and then bowed deeply to Joshua and said, "Such kindness cannot be repaid. ”

This man who has been reborn and got a young body, the first thing he did after waking up was to stand up straight, although Nameless couldn't figure out the current situation, but he could understand why he could continue to speak, and from the words of the tall man before, it was the other party who saved him, so the first thing he had to do was to sincerely thank him.

"It's just a normal return, don't worry too much."

On the other side, Joshua, who was taking off his white coat, shook his head: "After all, I used your physical body to act for a period of time when I was in the Xiboya world before, and resurrecting you is just to confirm your strength, a simple exchange, this is what I promised, even if you died at that time, it would be the same." ”

At this point, the nameless mechanic was a little incomprehensible, and fell into a daze - he actually didn't understand the words like the world of Sibeja from the beginning, and he didn't understand why he could become so young after being resurrected, to be honest, he didn't even know who Joshua was, but he knew that the other party was not a soul puppet, and seemed to have a self-will, and should be one of the people who had been fighting against the soul puppet.

The Nameless Mechanic didn't know what was going on at all, he had never even communicated with humans, and what he just said was just a retelling of what he had learned in the book, an instinctive use.

And Joshua understood this, so he waved his hand, made a chair in a silver flash, and then sent it to the other party, motioning for the other party to sit down. Then, he said calmly: "Think about it, I have put everything in your mind. ”

Hearing this, the nameless mechanic subconsciously recalled.

Then he knew what had happened...... Everything is about the thousand-year-old history of the world of Sibeja, the lamentations of civilization, the wars of betrayal and despair, and the end of gazing into the past...... The majestic sea of information surged directly into his mind.

So the nameless mechanic fainted again.

“…… Well, forget that there is a limit to how much a normal person can receive information. ”

Standing in front of the silver pillar of light, Qiao Shuya, who was about to ask the nameless mechanic how it felt to be resurrected, couldn't help but pat his forehead after seeing this scene, and said helplessly: "It seems that if you use the power of steel to instill too much information, it will burst out at once, and ordinary people can't bear it...... However, if you are dealing with an enemy and use the power of steel to frantically output information at the moment of contact, it may also be able to hinder the opponent's normal thinking, which can be regarded as a means of attack. ”

Thinking of this, the warrior couldn't help but be a little excited, and he put the unknown mechanic who had passed out back on the operating table, and let the other party lie flat on the table. But soon, he frowned again: "No, isn't this the same as the information shock of the evil god?" ”

The reason why the evil god makes people fall into madness when they face or touch it is precisely because of the conductivity of the information, and even as long as someone mentions the real name of the evil god, such as the famine evil god and its dependents' 'Urdaimas', it will cause the information of the other party to be transmitted from the other side of the distant star sea, and the crazy spread of a large amount of useless erosion information, causing the contact to reduce their sanity. And Joshua's ability is not as good as that, because the information transmitted by the evil god is not actually worthless, and there may be some fragments of knowledge left over from the destruction of the other world, and if Joshua wants to use this method to attack, all the information poured out will definitely be garbage.

“…… Joshua, is it really okay for you to resurrect him directly like this? ”

And just when the warrior was still thinking about the magic of his steel power, Qing Ling's voice sounded, and half a second later, as the magic power condensed, a worried projection appeared on Joshua's side: "After all, he is from the Siboya world, and he will definitely not be better off when he learns that his home world has been completely reforged under the manipulation of the Steel Python, right?" ”

"That's better than dead, Number Three."

Joshua didn't care about this: "This nameless gentleman chose death because of desperation and to resist the exploitation of the soul puppet - and now, the world of Siboya has been reborn, the rule of the soul puppet has disappeared, even Fatroorvi has been killed by me, and he has no reason to die." ”

"No matter how bad the situation is, it can't be worse than before, and besides, if he doesn't want to go back to the world of Sibeya, I can hire him to work for us, right?"

Number 3 didn't try to refute Joshua's words, because everyone had already been resurrected, and there was no point in saying more, she just took a deep look at the nameless mechanic's body, and she could see the soul light surging in the other person's body.

"I didn't expect you to reach the point where you can repair your soul...... Coupled with the fact that you can create a vibrant body at will, this is basically a resurrection without limits. ”

The AI whispered, "This is ...... A realm that even God can't touch. ”

As he said this, a glint flashed on No. 3's forehead, which formed a pair of wing-like marks, which were the emblem of Geer, the god of the sky. Number Three's words weren't false in the slightest, she really hadn't found any knowledge about this from the Sky God's heritage.

"No matter who dies, as long as there are still souls left, you can forge new bodies for them, and then stuff the souls back into the memory personality...... No one has ever heard of such a simple means of resurrection. ”

"It's not easy."

Regarding No. 3's emotion, Joshua shook his head solemnly and criticized the other party's optimistic opinion: "First of all, the soul of the deceased must be complete and strong enough to record all his personality and memories - this is something that most people do not meet the conditions, only those whose souls are strong enough and whose will is strong enough can be resurrected by this method. ”

"And those who have not achieved the extreme intent of the soul and whose strength has not reached the extreme intent stage will have the self-collapse of the soul between thirty seconds and seven minutes, which means that even if it is a gold-level powerhouse, if I am not around within seven minutes after death, and if the soul is not collected, then it will be considered a complete death. I'm not like some god who can be resurrected, who can use magic to collect broken soul fragments and then resurrect them, and after a certain period of time, when the memory fragments begin to fall into the soul cycle, then even if I resurrect someone with the remaining souls, that person's memory is incomplete. ”

"To be able to 'resurrect the dead' means that you have broken through the boundaries between death and life, have mastered fundamental authority, and can even be said to be on the path to eternity...... You're strong enough, don't be so demanding. ”

Number 3 frowned, she didn't like Joshua's overly rational thinking mode, she floated beside the warrior, and said with some dissatisfaction: "And you spent almost a week, it can't be just to resurrect someone, right?" What have you done in such a long time, obviously it was not easy to return to the territory once, but you ended up staying in the dust-free laboratory here in Wintercastle every day, and Hei ran out yesterday to play fairy cards with Xiaoguang and those dwarves, and you don't care......"

Number 3 was babbling about a lot of things, as if he was complaining, while Joshua listened quietly...... She did need to vent, because since the warrior returned to Moldavia on January 5, 838, until the afternoon of January 11, Joshua has spent most of his time conducting some strange experiments in the dust-free laboratory on the second basement floor of Wintercastle Academy, and resurrecting the nameless mechanic is only one of his many jobs, and it is clearly not the result of what he has been seeking for so long.

And Joshua really didn't just want to resurrect the nameless mechanic, which is why he stayed in retreat for so long.

After No. 3 finished babbling and complaining, the warrior grabbed the hand of the artificial intelligence lady and motioned for the other party to look up at the silver pillar of light that shrouded the nameless mechanic and the operating table, while No. 3 didn't know why it suddenly stopped for a moment, and only looked up a moment later to take a closer look at the light of the power of steel, which didn't seem to have anything special.

"It seems...... Nothing big, huh? ”

For a moment, Number 3 didn't see any clues, but soon, she noticed that something was wrong: "No, this pillar of light is completely composed of your steel power...... It's not light at all! It's a pool of energy filled with the power of steel! It emits its own light, causing it to look like a pillar of light! ”

"That's a good point."

After seeing No. 3 quickly sense that something was wrong, Joshua smiled and clapped his palms, he looked at the 'Steel Power Energy Pool' that he had spent almost a week to build, and said proudly: "I really only wanted to resurrect the nameless mechanic alone, but then I thought, since it is so simple for me to create and repair a complete body, why can't I come up with a system that can automatically repair the human body?" ”

As he spoke, Joshua raised his hand and drew a light curtain in mid-air, and pictures and images appeared in the light curtain, most of which were about adventurers and soldiers who were seriously injured by their ruined limbs, had to amputate their limbs, and even had their companions end their suffering, the warrior showed these materials to No. 3, and then said calmly in the other party's thoughtful eyes: "For me, repairing a person's limb only requires a little less effort than breathing, and resurrecting a person is just a matter of trouble, if everything meets the requirements, It's just a gesture. ”

"But the vast majority of ordinary people are different, they don't have the strength of me, even if they have the magic to regenerate limbs, it is estimated that they can't afford to pay the price of treatment."

Number 3 blinked and said with some incomprehension, "So...... You created this Steelforce energy pool? As she spoke, she raised her head, glanced at the silver pillar of light, and then said rather uncertainly: "I can probably understand its function, it should be to repair all the injuries on the other party's body according to the situation of the entrant, and the severed limb is also one of them—wait, are you going to popularize this thing?" ”

Thinking of this, No. 3 couldn't help but be taken aback, she flew around Joshua several times, and then shook her head in a little panic and said: "Hey, don't be so kind, the power of steel is also very important to you, if you create too many of these energy pools, it is equivalent to thinning the reserves of your steel power!" At that time, if you encounter a strong enemy of the level of Fatroorvi that you mentioned earlier, then this weakening will be fatal! ”

"Although I have good intentions, I am not so virgin."

Joshua expressed dissatisfaction with No. 3's opinion that he thought of such kindness, he shook his head with a smile, and then stared at the silver pillar of light in front of him and said: "This thing, I plan to call him 'repair the pillar of light', place one every few cities, anyone in need, can use it to repair the injuries accumulated on their bodies - of course, they have to pay the price, gold and silver, strange things, collected classics or other precious resources can be, my steel power condensation has its own ability to calculate and think, They're actually part of me, so I can tell what the other side should pay based on the injury. ”

"No one can get treatment for nothing, because every pillar of repair light can directly connect with me, and whoever wants to destroy it will suffer my instinctive counterattack."

"But...... What's in it for you? ”

That's a vulgar name. No. 3 despised the warrior's ability to name in her heart, but she couldn't think of any good names, so she didn't express her opinion, and after listening, No. 3 nodded as if she didn't understand, she understood what Joshua meant, and knew that the other party didn't intend to spend her strength to take care of the general public, but even so, she didn't see any benefit to Joshua in this matter.

For this, No. 3 even valued the warrior himself, thinking of this, she immediately wrinkled her slender little eyebrows, and turned her head to Qiao Shuya with some anger: "To put it bluntly, you are still the only one who pays!" ”

"How is it possible, I took advantage of it."

Seeing that No. 3 cared so much about his own interests, Joshua naturally wouldn't be angry, he patted No. 3's head on the side, and chuckled: "Think about it, I repair their injuries, it's nothing more than consuming some energy and substances to reshape or repair some limbs and injuries, and this kind of thing is everywhere." But the price I had to pay was far greater than what I had to pay, and they would even think that I was too cheap. ”

"In this way, it is equivalent to having countless people collect all kinds of precious resources for me at the same time, making me stronger, which is much faster than me going out to the other world from time to time to find one or two energy-poor dead worlds to swallow mud, and most importantly, creating this repair light pillar is just a convenient thing for me, and it can help the public, and it is a win-win situation that is beneficial to both parties, so why not?"

"It's not good news for the doctors and the clergy."

No. 3 touched his head and pouted, "They don't have a lot of money." ”

"Only if they can't solve the injury, they will come to me." Joshua didn't care about this, he had already thought about it: "After all, my price is not low. I can also connect this thing with Wintercastle and the contribution system of the Department of External Exploration, so that they can exchange credits and contribution points for healing opportunities, and to be honest, I think my contribution system can completely replace cash, but unfortunately Israel has not supported it, saying that at least the information terminal can be popularized to do this. ”

"By the way, maybe you can also let the external exploration team carry a repair light pillar with them, so that the risk of exploring the other world can also be minimized."

"Woo, you've thought so well, then I don't have anything to say......" Listening to everything Joshua said seriously, No. 3 blinked, and couldn't find any loopholes, so after she sighed, she put her hands on her knees and slowly floated towards the gate of the laboratory, while floating, she reminded solemnly: "Remember to go back to the lord's mansion for dinner in the evening, and never come back......"

"You're going to be angry — I know, you'll go back."

Joshua watched as Number 3 left the lab, and then, looking back again, at the 'Repair Pillar of Light' in front of him, the warrior's eyes glinting with a light and shadow.

In fact, in addition to what he said to No. 3, he has a bigger plan, but he didn't tell Miss Artificial Intelligence.

That is, he doesn't intend to promote this thing only in the McCrove world.

Karlis, Irgena World, Kronos World, Sibeja World...... In addition to these small worlds, and even worlds that have not been connected for the time being, there is also the real highlight, the Star Sea World.

If it's just the Northland, it's just the Northern Empire, then no matter how much the repair pillar of light is diffused, there is no way to gain too much, but if it's the entire Microf world, then the daily income alone is very considerable, not to mention the plural world, as long as it takes a little longer, then the power that Joshua has accumulated in various places will reach an astronomical amount, and in comparison, the little steel power he paid is only a drop in the bucket.

In the atrium civilization of the Star Sea World, he is a true god with a god name, and repairing the pillar of light will definitely be regarded as a real miracle, and the so-called price is nothing more than a sacrifice, and the people of the atrium will be willing to pay. If the people of the Atrium encounter other civilizations, they can also be allowed to diffuse the pillar of light, and in this way, maybe the benefits of one Star Sea World will be much greater than that of the other small worlds combined.

This kind of efficiency is definitely much faster than spending a lot of energy wandering around the desolate void, looking for substances that can be collected, after all, not every void realm has the energy density of the Void Maelstrom, and it is impossible for him to stay next to the Void Maelstrom all the time to draw energy.

"In this way, as long as I regularly recycle these accumulated powers, I can quickly accumulate enough high-energy substances to accelerate the formation of the world."

In the dust-free laboratory, Joshua clenched his right fist, he stared at his fist, which was absolutely strong, absolutely smooth, better than all the material in the world, and whispered to himself: "Moreover, the power of steel is the carrier of my message, it is a part of me and my soul, and every pillar of repair light has a trace of my will...... If I spread them in different worlds, it would be the same as if I were in several different worlds at the same time. ”

What are the consequences of this strange way of being?

Joshua didn't know.

But he's looking forward to it.
