Chapter 354 William Dodd
Leo knew his situation very well. According to common sense, his body should have died on the battlefield that year, and the biochemical warrior who was the main consciousness should also have died in that conflict, but the two should have died.
The person who died is still living in the current state of the fusion of different spirits and bodies, which makes his current life form appear to be in a state between life and death.
Leo doesn't know much about the current condition of his body and soul, but the only thing he can be sure of is that his current state is extraordinary. His body alone can easily accommodate the marks of various gods and integrate various
The power of the gods is already extraordinary.
"Are they preparing for the advent?" Leo suddenly remembered that he had seen a book about the underground church in Rembrandt, which was among the banned books. It mentioned the process of the underground church's divine descending ceremony.
This content made Leo couldn't help but think about his own situation.
During the divine descending ceremony recorded in that book, the sacrifices as carriers of the gods will be killed in the final stage of the divine descending ceremony. During the period between death and life, the divine descending ceremony is completed and the gods possess the sacrifices.
body, completing the process of final arrival.
Now Leo's body is in a state between life and death, and it is not in this state for a short time, but is permanently fixed in this state. In other words, he is the best descendant of the gods in the world of Velen.
As Leo's spiritual power level increased and he acquired more and more mysterious knowledge, he also understood more and more about the gods of Velen world, and he also realized the gods and universe of Velen world.
Psykers are very different.
Although the gods in the world of Velen, except for those false gods, the rest of the gods are omega-level advanced creatures, there are essential differences among these gods, and the differences between these gods make them face the same disastrous things.
, the end result will be completely different.
For example, the Mother of Plants has a real body. She relied on the continuous evolution of her body to finally sublimate into a god. Therefore, her power comes entirely from herself. No matter what changes she encounters, as long as there are no accidents in her original body
, He will not disappear, and He will not even need believers.
Another example is the gods that were created due to a certain belief in the world. Their power and even themselves come from the belief in the world. Once the belief in the world is shaken, such gods will fall and disappear no matter how powerful they are.
This is why when the world of Velen entered the age of steam industry, a large number of gods, whether they were the evil gods of the underground church or the righteous gods of the Orthodox Church, were all affected and disappeared from the world one by one.
The state of the Mother of Plants is almost the same as that of the real Omega-level advanced life forms in the universe. The only difference is that it cannot escape from the huge star body of Velen World, and the nature of other gods without original bodies is completely different from that of cosmic psychics.
The only way for these gods, who are gradually declining due to the transformation of secular people's ideas and concepts, to save themselves now is to have a body that can contain the power of their gods, so that they can come to the world of Velen and live like normal people, and Leo's
The body should obviously be the body that such gods dream of descending into.
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing that Leo was deep in thought after listening to her words, Grandma Wumu asked curiously after waiting for a while.
Leo responded calmly and said: "I'm thinking about some things about the gods. But I don't think you like the things I think about." After saying that, he didn't allow Grandma Wumu to think too much, and asked again: "
Do you know what is going on in the Black City?"
Aunt Wumu replied: "You have to ask Alice about the Black City, because she is the only one who has entered the Black City."
Leo asked again: "Speaking of Alice, she mentioned that there is a way to leave the island..."
"Yes, there is indeed a way to leave here. Of course, the prerequisite is that the person leaving is a living person." Aunt Wumu nodded and acknowledged this statement before Leo finished asking, and added: "As for the details of leaving,
Only Alice knows the method and location. I don't know much about it, I just know that the location should be in the Black City."
Hearing Grandma Wumu's affirmative and quick answer, Leo was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Have there been any examples of successful departures before?"
"Yes." Aunt Wumu nodded and quickly added: "It's a pity that he is already dead and died here."
"Already dead." Leo frowned, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Isn't that the person you mentioned is the person who studied the mysteries of this island?"
"Yes, that's him." Aunt Wumu admitted: "He left the island through the method he found, but he managed to return here because of other reasons. Unfortunately, his body is no longer suitable for here.
It can only grow old and eventually die."
Leo was becoming more and more interested in this person at this moment, so he asked: "What's his name? Where is he from?"
Aunt Wumu did not hide anything and said truthfully: "He is also from England, his name is William Dodd. He has the same surname as you, both are Dodd. If the surname Dodd was not very common in the Kingdom of England,
I might have thought he was a relative of yours, because your looks are similar in some places."
When Leo heard this, he felt a little weird, and he couldn't tell what the weirdness was. He originally planned to ask if he could see the relics left by William Dodd, but he gave up.
After changing his mind, Leo thought for a moment and asked a new question, saying: "Leon Belmont asked me to go to the cliff where the Thunderbird is to get a statue of the god. Do you know anything about that statue?"
"She actually asked you to get that statue?" The expression on Wumu's face showed that she stood up from the chair and asked anxiously: "Then have you got it?"
"Yes, I got it." Leo nodded and said, "After I got it, something happened on the island..."
After Leo then took him to the statue of Gaia, he told him all the changes that happened on the island. He also talked about the black mist, the eyeballs transformed by part of the power of the Night God's sigh in the black mist, and the way to disperse the eyeballs.
Mysterious power.
Mother Wumu's face was extremely solemn as she listened to what Leo said. She even couldn't help cursing Alice several times. After finally listening, she calmed down and sat back a little decadently.
When I got to the chair, I lowered my head and didn’t know what I was thinking.
Leo did not disturb her, but quietly waited for her to recover from her meditation.
It didn't take long. Aunt Wumu sighed heavily, raised her head, and said to herself: "She finally took this step, and finally she was ready to do that."
"Can you explain it?" Leo said in a deep voice.
Aunt Wumu did not respond immediately, but asked Leo: "Where is that statue now?"
Leo was silent for a moment, then raised his finger and pointed at his head, saying: "Here."
"Ah?" Obviously this answer was completely beyond the expectations of Sister Wumu. She had thought that the statue had been taken away by Alice Belmont, and she had also thought that the statue was lost in White City, but she couldn't.
Unexpectedly, the statue of the god would actually merge into Leo's body.
"Do you know what that statue is? Right?" Leo saw a lot of connotations in the reaction of Wu Mu, so he asked tentatively.
Aunt Wumu was obviously still immersed in surprise. She reacted instinctively to Leo's inquiry and nodded. However, she soon realized that her actions were inappropriate and she shook her head remedially.
But after seeing Leo's expression, she already knew that the remedy was useless. She could only sigh, and with a somewhat frustrated look, she took out the obsidian she just got from Leo and threw it to the table next to her without cherishing it.
He went up and said: "It's useless, this thing is useless."
Leo watched Grandma Wu Mu showing a completely different attitude from before. He did not urge her to tell her what she knew, but quietly waited for her to recover on her own.
After a while, Grandma Wumu recovered from her depression, at least on the surface, she had returned to her previous appearance, and said to Leo: "I'm sorry, I was a little out of control just now, mainly because of you.
The matter is really too serious.”
"Is that statue related to the survival of this island?" Leo asked tentatively.
Aunt Wumu nodded, shook her head, and said: "I don't know about this either. It's just that when William studied some ancient mysteries, he said that he had found a way to make the island disappear and all the victims on the island be freed.
method, but the method was not perfect at the time. He didn’t say much, but mentioned that one of the key points was the statue of Thunderbird Cliff. Later, because there was no further news, I thought that his research had encountered a bottleneck, and maybe he had given up.
, so there was no further follow-up, until the day William died, he told Alice that he had found a way to destroy the island."
Leo asked doubtfully: "Do you think the method William obtained after research will be useful?"
"I just know that there were no mistakes in what William did in the past. If he said it would be useful, then it must be useful again." Aunt Wumu seemed to have great respect and trust in William Dodd, so she was extremely sure of it.
He responded in a tone of voice, and continued to add to what he had just said, saying: "Alice came to me later, and he wanted me to assist her, and he also wanted me to reveal some of the plan, but I hesitated at the time and did not agree.
Her proposal."
"Why are you hesitating? Don't you want to help these victims get out of here?" Leo asked.
"Do you think I look like a dead person?" Aunt Wumu did not answer, but asked in a leap of thought.
"It's not like that." Leo said honestly.
"I feel the same way." Aunt Wumu nodded and said: "I also need to eat, I will also be injured, I will also feel pain, and I will also have the same emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy that any living person has. So,
Is there any difference between us and living people?"
Leo replied briefly: "No."
"Yes, there is no difference between us and living people. The only difference is that we can never have children." Aunt Wumu sighed again and said: "We are all victims like living people. Being able to come here is almost impossible.
It's like getting a second life. But if we really follow Alice's approach, then what difference does it make if we slaughter these victims? Now you know why I hesitated at the time."
"What does that statue have to do with this island?" Leo asked in a urging manner.
"I don't know the specific relationship, but after William's research, he found that the statue appeared for a very long time, almost at the same time as the war that changed the world." Aunt Wumu did not go around in circles and said: "
However, on the day when our Lord came, our Lord mentioned that the statue was one of the foundations of this island. Once it moves, it will cause a series of unpredictable results, just like the things you saw, and this is also
It’s just the beginning.”
"Will your place also be affected?" Leo asked.
"Isn't it going to be affected? But it has already been affected." Aunt Wumu seemed unwilling to say more and simply responded.
Leo asked again: "What kind of statue is that statue?"
Aunt Wu Mu responded. "I don't know the name of this god. I just know that it is a very ancient god. And she was not born in our world. She was born in the void outside the world. She is very great.
, Noble, even my Lord can only see the radiance of this ancient god by looking up."
Leo was not surprised by Aunt Wu's answer. As one of the oldest omega-level advanced creatures in the universe, Gaia's power can no longer be described in any words. Most of the omega-level advanced creatures are under her
I'm afraid I'm just like ordinary people in front of me.
Leo picked up the obsidian on the table and asked, "Should our transaction continue now?"
"Of course we have to continue," Wu Mu seemed to have made a decision and said, "Since Alice has already started, I shouldn't hesitate any longer. Mr. Leo, if you have any questions, you can continue to ask, I'm sure
I will tell you everything I know, but I hope you can help Alice complete her plan. I believe her plan is completed and you can leave from here."
"Is there no other way to leave here?" Leo frowned and asked.
Aunt Wumu shook her head and said: "If before you took away the statue, you still had a chance to leave the island the same way William left back then, but now..."
Leo asked again: "Does Alice know that this will happen if I move the statue?"
Aunt Wumu didn't answer, but the answer was already obvious.
Leo was silent for a moment and then asked: "Do you know what those parasites are in the obsidian?"
Seeing Leo continue to ask, Grandma Wumu was slightly relieved, because this meant that the transaction between Leo and her would continue, and Alice would not be blamed for her previous behavior, so after hearing the inquiry, she quickly
