Chapter 355: The Victims

After hearing this answer, Leo acted very calmly. After all, he had obviously expected it. It was just that the idea of ​​divine seeds was a bit exaggerated in his opinion, but since Grandma Wumu said so, it meant that there must be

reason.

Mother Wumu, who was paying attention to the change in Leo's expression, seemed a little disappointed, and was also curious about what else could surprise Leo.

"Why do you think, Aunt Wumu, that the parasites in the obsidian are divine seeds?" Leo asked.

Aunt Wumu said in a deep voice: "I don't think so, it was my Lord who told me."

After saying that, she signaled Leo to wait a moment, stood up, turned around and walked out of the room. After a while, she walked in with a box, then handed it to Leo and motioned for Leo to open it.

Leo took the box and opened it without thinking too much. He saw a transparent crystal stored in the box, and inside the crystal, there was a golden cocoon. If you look carefully, you can see

There are a large number of golden symbols around the cocoon. Each of these golden symbols has extremely powerful power, and they not only imprison the golden cocoon, but also nourish and cultivate the cocoon.

"This is the result of my master extracting the parasite from obsidian and cultivating it." Aunt Wumu explained: "As long as the cocoon breaks open and the adult insect is absorbed, you can become a god.

Opportunity."

When saying this, Grandma Wumu looked at Leo's expression, and there was something strange in her eyes.

"Nice stuff." Leo just memorized all the golden symbols in the transparent crystal, and then re-covered the box very abruptly and handed it back to Aunt Wu Mu.

Aunt Wumu looked at the box in her hand and asked Leo with a confused look on her face: "Don't you have a little bit of greed?"

Leo didn't answer, he closed his eyes and meditated for a while. After opening his eyes, he looked at Aunt Wumu with a strange look.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Aunt Wumu looked at Leo with a puzzled face.

"Nothing," Leo looked away, shook his head, and then said: "I have no more questions to ask. Since you want me to help Alice complete her plan, then you must know how to return to White City. I

Make an agreement with Alice to wait for her at the Giant's Gate in White City."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Aunt Wumu agreed readily, stood up, and walked out of the room.

When Leo was alone in the room, the expression on Leo's face became a little solemn. His eyes fell on the transparent crystal placed in the box on the table by Mother Wumu, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Leo stood up, walked to the door, opened the door and looked at the scene outside.

The scene that appeared in front of him was no longer the spiral staircase of the tower, but an endless reed field. The sunset spread from the end of the sky, giving the blue sky a layer of gorgeous red. A fresh breath

The breeze blew from the reeds, taking away some of the fragrance of the reeds, and then blew it on Leo's face, pouring the fragrance into Leo's nose, making his nervousness slightly relax.

Although the scene in front of him was extremely strange, Leo did not show any surprise at all. Instead, he walked into the reed field very naturally.

The moment he entered the reed field, the door behind him gradually dispersed into dust like weathered stones blown by a breeze, scattered in the air, and fell into the reed field.

The disappearance of the back road did not make Leo feel any fear. Instead, he looked at the extremely beautiful scene in front of him with interest, a smile appeared on his face, and said: "I really miss it! I haven't seen such a beautiful scene in many years.

Should I thank you for reminding me of this scene buried deep in my memory, Your Majesty the Sufferer?"

"You're welcome, I also like this scene very much. I never thought that Velen would have such a beautiful scenery." A voice suddenly sounded from beside Leo, and I didn't know when, there was another person beside Leo.

This person's appearance is very similar to Leo's, but his temperament is more noble. After seeing him, people can't help but have the urge to worship him.

"This scenery is not Velen, it is another place." Leo could also feel the invisible power of the existence beside him. In order to prevent himself from being affected, he did not turn his head to look at the other person, but always looked at the distant place surrounded by reeds.

The original blocked sun.

"Isn't it Velen?" The victim murmured thoughtfully, and then asked with interest: "Why do you doubt me?"

Leo was not polite and said: "You are too impatient! When I took out the bugs, I knew there was a problem."

"Are you too impatient?" The victim muttered and said, "Do you know what a cocoon is?"

"I know, divine seeds." Leo said.

The victim asked doubtfully: "Since you know it is a seed from the gods, why are you not interested? I can't feel any greed for the seeds from the gods in your heart."

"I used the seeds of gods to become gods, am I still me?" Leo asked calmly.

The victim fell silent, and Leo did not speak. He just quietly felt the cool breeze and the warm sunshine falling on his body. Apart from the rustling of reeds, no other sounds could be heard around him.

I don't know how much time passed before the victim sighed and said, "Did you expect that I would not be able to cause you any harm?"

"Yes." Leo nodded and admitted, "If you could really do something to me, you wouldn't have spent so much effort to guide me." As he said that, he paused and turned to look at the face and face.

His identical victim, trying hard to suppress the side effects of the other party's invisible power, asked in a deep voice: "Why? Why are you, the gods of Velen, interested in me?"

The victim also looked at Leo and said: "Because even the gods don't want to die silently, they also want to live for a long time. Your body is very special, so special that even you can't imagine it.

Less than that.”

Leo said doubtfully: "In that case, why don't you be more direct? Anyway, I don't have the power to resist in front of you gods."

The victim repeated what he said before and said, "You still didn't understand. I told you that your body is very special, so special that you can't even imagine it." After saying that, he saw him raise his hand and touch Leo.

On his forehead, he said: "Since they have given you the mark, then I can't be an exception."

Leo only felt a hot torrent pouring in from the place where the victim's fingers touched, and poured into his body instantly. Under the interaction of various forces in his body, it was finally divided into two and injected into

His left and right feet immediately returned to normal after a sharp pain in the soles of their feet.

The moment Leo was hit by the victim, he fell into a state of confusion. Apart from being able to feel the various conditions of his body, he could no longer feel any movement from the outside world, as if he was in the void of the universe.

generally.

But he soon woke up from that state, but when he woke up and started to look at his surroundings, he found that the previous reed field had disappeared, and the tower had also disappeared. And the place where he was standing at the moment was still

The city wall of Baicheng, but the city wall is no longer made of skulls, but has returned to its original appearance of piled stones. The powerful force is still ready to move inside the city wall.

In addition, everything around has returned to the White City built of huge rocks. The only things that have not changed are the gray fog covering the entire White City and the mutated monsters from the parasites that are still plundering the White City.

Seeing that he was back in the White City, Leo breathed a sigh of relief, and when he felt the power in the city wall flowing under his feet, even though he knew that this power would not hurt him now, he still jumped off the city wall and found him nearby.

He walked into an empty stone house, sat on the ground, took off his shoes, and looked at the soles of his feet. He saw that there was now a rune-like pattern on the soles of his feet.

When he focused on this mark, some information immediately poured out from the mark and merged into his consciousness, allowing him to instantly understand the use of the power contained in this mark, just like other gods integrated into his body.

The mark is the same.

Although he had gained new power, Leo was not happy at all and could only smile bitterly.

At this moment, Leo has determined that the power that drove away the eyeball should be the victim, and it was also the victim who secretly acted to make him directly enter the World Sanctuary in the White City the moment he entered the White City, and also possessed the body of Aunt Wumu.

, guiding him, hoping to make him swallow the seeds of the gods spread by using obsidian parasites without knowing it.

It's a pity that the victim was so eager for success that Leo noticed it. If he could be more patient and let Leo focus all his attention on the various knowledge he revealed before taking action, he might have succeeded by now.

Already.

However, even if the answers to Leo's questions were purposeful, the content of those answers were not random fabrications, but real things.

For example, the world in Baicheng City is real, the shelter is also real, only the people in the shelter also exist, and even some of the things and people mentioned in the conversation may also be real.

Thinking of this, Leo couldn't help but regret that he had been so anxious to expose Aunt Wumu. If he delayed a little longer and found a chance to look at the relics left by William Dodd in the shelter, he might be able to find out some information about the island.

Details.

In fact, after Leo entered the world of Baicheng, he instinctively felt that something was wrong, especially the scene when he met the little boy. He always felt that something was very weird. But at the time, he thought it was because of other reasons, such as entering deep consciousness.

The statue of Gaia, the blood of giants, etc. The power integrated into his body made him feel a little abnormal, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.

It wasn't until Grandma Wumu suddenly took out an invisible crystal that sealed the cocoon and saw the golden runes inside that he truly realized something was wrong and discovered the existence of the victim.

However, he did not expect that the spirit of the victim would appear in person and talk to him. This was completely beyond his expectation and made him feel extremely weird.

Because, if he remembered correctly, the victims should believe in gods. Gods of belief cannot appear in front of others anytime and anywhere like gods with bodies like golden giant deer. Their arrival must have certain rituals and there must be someone to live in.

's body.

For example, a god like the Corpse Collector seems to be able to come at any time and anywhere, but the process of his coming is not without any sacrifice. Every time he comes, he should pay for the souls he collected, and this is in a special place like the Sea of ​​Abyss.

place.

But the Sufferer, a god born out of the belief in suffering in the world of Velen, is a pure god of faith. If He wants to show his holiness in front of people, it is absolutely impossible to be available at any time. The only thing that can be explained is that the Sufferer is always a god.

They are all here. The sanctuary in the world of Baicheng may be the body of the god Victim, so he can appear in front of Leo anytime and anywhere, and can also suddenly appear to help Leo drive away the eyeballs transformed by the power of Night God's Sigh.

But what confuses Leo even more is that the reason for the appearance of the victim god is really far-fetched, because he said that the reason why the god covets is to survive. Other gods of faith say that this reason may be valid, but he said this reason is just

It's a little weird.

Because as the incarnation of suffering, as long as the suffering in the Velen world does not end, he will exist forever. Even when the Velen world enters interstellar civilization, he can still follow the footsteps of the Velen people and enter the interstellar civilization, so he has no

Any pressure on faith will not weaken and eventually disappear due to the reduction of faith like other faiths in gods.

Therefore, after thinking about it carefully, Leo felt that the victim may not have told the truth, or not all the truth. The only thing that may be true is that his body is very special, but it is just as the victim said.

, he still doesn’t know what’s so special about it.

At this moment, a series of dog barks suddenly came from outside the abandoned house. The barks got closer and closer, and finally stopped outside the house and barked at the inside.

In this situation, it was almost unnecessary to think twice before he knew that his whereabouts had been discovered. Leo put on his shoes, quickly walked to the side wall of the house, and looked out through the gap in the wooden boards.

However, he did not see any dogs. There was nothing outside, but the barking of dogs did not stop and was accompanied by bursts of barking and the sound of heavy objects hitting the door and walls. Look.

It looked like something was constantly hitting the wall.

For this reason, Leo activated his spiritual vision skill, and then looked outside.

I saw that the scene outside had completely changed at this time. On the originally empty street, there were seven or eight incense burners holding lanterns, and around the incense burners were more than a dozen people entangled with skinned human body parts.
