Chapter 1127 Who fears who
"Can you tell me about existing things like me?" the pregnant woman asked with some anticipation.
Leo did not answer, but was silent for a moment and asked, "Can you tell me how the five missing people are doing now?"
The pregnant woman replied calmly: "If they are lucky, they have woken up and returned to Torch City. If they are unlucky, they may have been eaten by a monster in the forest." Then, she looked at Leo with a deep meaning and said: "You should know that I don't eat any intelligent life. I am only interested in the strong emotions in the intelligent life. Joy is like barbecue, and love is like a dessert..."
"So frightened?" Leo asked again.
The pregnant woman said bluntly: "Teniority is like soothing grass. It smells smelly, but it can refresh you and become addicted. I am already addicted."
Soothing grass is a herb used by shamans in Mosang during ceremonies. It can soothe people's emotions and make people feel energetic for a period of time. The medical school absorbs this herb into common medicines and extracts better-effect medicine juices to treat mental diseases.
However, soon the medical school discovered that the refined soothing herbal juice not only has better effects, but also has extremely strong side effects, that is, it is easy to get addicted. Moreover, when addicted people cannot get the soothing herbal medicine they want, they will quickly become manic, violent, and finally even have the thoughts and behaviors of self-destructing and destroying others.
Because of this strong side effect, medical schools have to give up this special medicine for the treatment of mental diseases and list the soothing grass on the list of banned drugs, and countries have also imposed bans on this medicine.
However, as the world changes, although most of the bodies of ordinary humans have not undergone drastic mutations, they have more or less changed, such as the ability to withstand side effects of the agent. People in this era generally feel desperate and panic about a world where monsters are rampant. The mental pressure is far more than more than 20 years ago. Therefore, the soothing grass, a potion that can boost the spirit, was removed from the list of banned drugs again and made into various finished potions that are convenient to take and carry.
In the caravan of the Fire Dancers, many people, especially those who directly participate in the front-line battles such as guards and hunters, have the habit of taking soothing herbs. Every time they go shopping, they are fighting for their lives, and the pressure they bear is far greater than those who live in cities protected by high walls. If there is no help from soothing herbs, many of them may have collapsed due to excessive pressure.
Although Leo has never used soothing herbs, he is very familiar with similar potions. When in the Earth Federation, the federal army will distribute similar potions to ordinary frontline soldiers to increase the combat time of the warriors and reduce the mental stress caused by long-term combat.
However, even such agents developed by the technology of the Earth Federation have extremely strong side effects and will cause irreparable mental damage to the warriors who take them for a long time. He hardly needs to verify that this soothing herb will definitely not be as harmless as rumored outside.
It can be foreseen that even if these medication takers resist the side effects of soothing herbs through their strong bodies and make the body appear to be uninvited, their spirits have been completely eroded by soothing herbs. Once they lose the supply of the medicine one day, they will become completely useless due to their trauma and holes.
A pregnant woman is a spiritual life body. Her spiritual understanding of intelligent creatures is definitely greater than that of the world, and even at all levels of life in the universe. Therefore, she must also understand what kind of mental state the people taking soothing herbs are. But now she uses soothing herbs to describe her love and addiction to panic, which also made Leo feel a little worried.
Just as people taking soothing herbs will continue to increase their doses to improve the efficacy of the medicine, pregnant women may not be satisfied with the amount of fear they are sucked now, and will definitely expand their food source. By then, they will no longer be a caravan, but may be a city or even a county and a country.
After Leo thought of this, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and his emotions changed slightly, thinking about whether he should tell the information about the spiritual life he knew.
Although higher civilizations have never found irrefutable evidence to prove the existence of spiritual living organisms, they have made extremely in-depth research on spiritual living organisms through other means, especially in some of the published materials, most of which are the abilities of spiritual living organisms.
Just as Leo was able to find her own psionic skills through his understanding of the psychics, the spiritual life form in front of him could also find her own power and ability through research materials from higher civilizations. Who can stop a spiritual life form that is extremely addicted to panic?
If it were in the past, Leo would not consider what consequences would be for these research materials. He would only use these materials to trade with spiritual living organisms and obtain what he wanted. As for what adverse effects would have on others and the world, he would not care too much.
But the situation is completely different now. He has gained ordinary emotions and needs to consider more things, and he has also had a lot of concerns in his heart.
Just as Leo was hesitating, the spiritual life body also accurately detected Leo's emotional changes, realizing that she might no longer be able to know information about her existence from Leo's mouth. This made her a little angry, and her expression on her face became gloomy.
"You won't tell me anything about existence like me." The pregnant woman straightened out Leo's thoughts at the moment.
Leo nodded no longer, admitted, "Yes."
The pregnant woman said carelessly: "It doesn't matter, I can find it myself."
After saying that, without waiting for Leo to react, the pregnant woman disappeared directly from Leo's eyes, as if she had never existed.
The emergence of the abnormal situation made Leo instantly understand that the other party might have entered his spiritual world through his own abilities, so he immediately used his known methods to let the consciousness enter his spiritual world to view the situation, and at the same time quickly check the status of the database memory in his brain.
However, after repeated and careful inspections, Leo did not find any abnormalities in himself, nor did he show any signs of being invaded. This did not relieve him, but instead made him more alert.
In his opinion, if there was no big mistake in the research on spiritual life forms, then the spiritual life form just now might have invaded his spiritual world and began to read various information in his brain.
Faced with this situation, Leo could not find any effective way to deal with the various abilities he had mastered. Not to mention him, even the gods in the world of Viron would probably be difficult to resist the invasion of spiritual life.
The only thing Leo can do now is to use any method he has mastered to target his own spiritual consciousness to repeatedly check, hoping to find some traces of invasion.
Time passed by little by little, and the same examination results made Leo very disappointed, but he was also confused because with the ability of the spiritual life body, if it had really invaded his spiritual world, then the other party should have read his memory thoroughly and left his spiritual world, but now that spiritual life body seems to have truly disappeared and never appeared again.
"Have she left?" The abnormal situation made Leo have a guess, but soon he shook his head again and denied the guess, because according to the situation where he had just contacted the spiritual life body, even if the other party had obtained the information he wanted, he would still appear in front of him again.
"Or she has disappeared?" Leo then had another thought, and this thought was completely impossible under his rational analysis, but his intuition told him that it might be the fact.
Under the guidance of intuition, Leo repeatedly analyzed the reason why the spiritual life form did not appear, and gradually felt that the speculation that the spiritual life form had disappeared may be correct.
Because Leo found that when he was facing the spiritual life form just now, he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding of thinking, and this misunderstanding of thinking was enough to make his subsequent series of analyses and judgments go in a wrong direction.
For example, all the information about spiritual life forms he knows comes from unverified public information, and even the existences of the Supreme Council of the Universe are vague about whether spiritual life forms are real. Then there is no substantial object for research on spiritual life forms. All research materials are derived from illusions, but because these researches all come from higher civilizations and the Supreme Council of the Universe, their authoritative effect makes all those who obtain these information subconsciously believe that these information is correct and that spiritual life forms are real.
But what if the spiritual life form does not exist? Everything is just a guess? Then the mysterious existence disguised as a pregnant woman just now is not a spiritual life form, and all abilities related to spiritual life form will naturally not appear in this mysterious existence, such as the ability of immortality.
Let’s take a step back and think about it. Even if the spiritual being exists, the other party is indeed a spiritual being, but the surrounding environment is completely different. This is not in the void of the universe, but it is likely to be a subspace plane, and all the laws in the universe cannot be fully applied here.
Just as the spiritual energy will be greatly restricted here, the power of the spiritual life body may be greatly suppressed. In this way, the various abilities related to the spiritual life body in his memory will naturally be counted.
And more importantly, the power here is different from that in the universe. It is not certain whether the spiritual life form that cannot be restrained in the universe will be restrained in this world. Maybe there is a certain force in this world that just happens to restrain her. It is not impossible for her to be restrained.
Thinking of this, Leo shifted the focus of his examination from his spiritual world to other parts of his body, especially the divine marks in his body.
Soon Leo discovered that when he gathered the stone throne in his brain through his mental power, he found that there was an relief on the base of the stone throne, or more correctly, he felt that there was an relief in some places.
Leo cannot describe what this relief looks like, because it is a vague concept, not a specific image, but Leo knows that it is the spiritual life form.
Obviously, when this spiritual life body invaded Leo's spiritual world, it happened to hit the power of the Stone Throne and was directly absorbed by the Stone Throne.
A special existence that was enough to make the entire universe feel tricky disappeared silently, which made Leo feel a strong sense of unreality, and even felt that this might be the illusion created by the spiritual being based on his memories and thoughts.
But his intuition told him that all this was true. The Stone Throne had indeed swallowed this spiritual life form that was addicted to panic. Since intuition could allow Leo to find this spiritual life form, intuition could naturally discover the status of this spiritual life form.
Leo was naturally happy to see that he could solve a problem so easily, but at the same time he felt regret that a strange life form that was enough to change the records of the universe's life form disappeared in his hands, and regret that he had not obtained more useful information from this spiritual life form.
But even so, Leo was able to analyze some extremely bold content from some clues.
For example, from the previous conversation, Leo could hear that this spiritual life form may have changed in the universe. She had no idea about some common sense things in the universe, but she could understand some of the concepts of the universe mentioned by Leo, as if this knowledge was something she had been born with. This also made Leo guess that this spiritual life form was not reborn, but reborn.
Since there is rebirth, there will naturally be destruction. Apart from the current stone throne, the only way that Leo knows to destroy the spiritual life body may be the destruction of the entire universe. All the intelligent creatures in the universe have all died and have lost their spiritual sustenance. The spiritual life body naturally cannot continue to exist.
However, Leo did not think that this analysis was correct, and not to mention the impact of the demise of the universe on subspace, even if the demise of the universe, the demise process would probably be very long and possible for hundreds of millions of years. This is contrary to the time when life appeared in the world of Viron, unless the power of subspace has been able to distort and compress such a long time of hundreds of millions of years to thousands of years.
In any case, for Leo, this spiritual life form was just a special existence he encountered during his early journey. Now that things have passed, he no longer thought about it, and his consciousness retreated from the spiritual world. He did not go back to the Fire Dancer Caravan, but continued directly along the mountain road towards the other end of the Newsky Mountains.
