Chapter 364 Dismembering the Will of the Mirage Dragon

Ah Da chose to take the initiative to become the carrier of the "Mirage Bead" and transformed into a skeleton giant when Zhao Mu was five or six years old.

At that time, he didn't know what a "child of the mist" was, nor did he know what the world beyond the mist meant to him.

Ah Da only knows the "outside world" that Zhu Nu said, which is completely different from the "outside world" described by the village elders.

There are no monsters in that world, only ordinary people who are almost the same as themselves.

Until a certain invisible thing swept over, almost causing Zhao Mu to be assimilated by the mist.

Ada, who grew up in the village since he was a child, and Zhu Nu, who came to the village not long ago, learned the truth about the "son of the mist" from the mouths of the old people in the village.

Therefore, in order for his son to break the curse of "Son of the Mist".

Ada chose to take up the responsibility of being a husband and father, took the initiative to go to the depths of the mist, made a deal with Zhou Sheng, and became the new "grave-slayer".

However, it is different from the previous "grave-slayer beasts" who lost their minds and only had instincts left.

After Ada turned into a skeleton giant, he didn't lose his mind a little bit. Instead, he felt an unprecedented closeness to the entire foggy world.

At the same time, some memory fragments that did not belong to him began to appear in Ah Da's mind.

In the description of those memory fragments, it seems that all of this should not be what it is now, and the culprit of all this is the old people in the village.

Those half-understood memories made Ada question the words of the old man in the village for the first time.

Therefore, in order to find out the truth of the whole incident, Ah Da secretly contacted his wife and shared with her the memories he came into contact with.

Then, in the next ten years or so, Ah Da joined hands with Zhu Nu, and gradually figured out the truth of the entire foggy world bit by bit.

This world shrouded in mist is a marsh where a real dragon turned into a marsh after the fall.

And those old people living in the misty village are the collections of the real dragon.

Before the fall of the real dragon, they have been living in the body of the real dragon.

And after the fall of the real dragon, as the fog spread, they also began to "rebirth" gradually.

Not only regained the ability to interact with the outside world, but even the basic ability to be a living being—reproduction.

Only after the initial surprise, the "people in the painting" discovered that the children they gave birth to would not live long at all, and would be assimilated and swallowed as soon as they came into contact with the mist.

In this way, Pei Wende's biggest question appeared after he learned of the existence of the "Village of Mist".

Is it true that the "people in the painting" are so obsessed with having children because of their desire for family affection and offspring?

After all, before Zhou Sheng appeared, those new generations could not live to adulthood at all. Under such circumstances, what is the reason that still drives the "people in the painting" to have offspring?

Until Ah Da's appearance gave Pei Wende a definite answer—the "people in the painting" tried to weaken the power of "phantom" in this way.

Because "Mirage" has long since fallen, but as a true dragon who has lived for an unknown number of years, He has never stopped trying to "resurrect" himself.

The "people in the painting" living in the mist discovered it by accident.

Even though the body of "Mirage" is dead, the number of prayers who are looking for him has not decreased at all, on the contrary, there is a trend of increasing.

This only shows that the "phantom" has not died completely.

Zhou Sheng broke into the fog under such circumstances, intending to seek a way to revive his wife.

Theoretically speaking, once the "Mirage" collects enough wish power, it is very likely that it will be revived again with the ability it has shown.

Therefore, not only to protect themselves, but also to retain their own eternal life, the "people in the painting" began to actively look for ways to weaken the "phantom".

Since there is no way to prevent "Mirage" from continuing to collect will power to resurrect, why not consider dismembering "Mirage"'s remaining will?
There is no concept of life and death in the mist, and naturally there is no such thing as soul reincarnation.

Then it becomes easy to guess who the offspring of the "people in the painting" are.

After figuring this out, through continuous birth and reincarnation, weakening the remaining will of the "phantom" became the original intention of the "people in the painting" to continue to have children.

And when these children who could be counted as "Dragon Avatars" returned to the mist, the first invisible things were born.

In other words, those so-called monsters and so-called invisible things in the mist were not creatures that existed in the mist at all.

They are all poor people artificially created by the "people in the painting" in order to check and balance the real dragon that is constantly recovering.

......................................................................................................

"If you want to say cruelty, you guys are more cruel."

Gazing at the silent old man in black, Pei Wende softly expressed his emotion while listening to these cruel truths about the fog.

The last doubt about this "mist village" has finally been completely resolved.

"I think the reason why you insist on letting Zhao Mu swallow the 'Mirage Pearl' is also because of this!"

Speaking the questioning sentence pattern in an affirmative tone, Pei Wende's next words were even more cruel.

"One side is the mirage dragon whose resurrection is getting closer and closer, while the other side is an invisible thing that is getting harder to suppress..."

"You need a 'grave-suppressing beast' that is similar to Ada, or even more powerful, in order to maintain this delicate balance between the two sides."

"And Ah Da's son is undoubtedly the best candidate."

"To be honest, this is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. It is a very dangerous behavior."

"I think it is precisely because Zhu Nu realized this that she wanted to send her son away from this mist no matter what!"

As a qualified mother, Zhu Nu does not want her son to become a victim of the village, let alone a monster like her husband.

Therefore, even at the cost of psychic reincarnation and complete abandonment of her current identity, she will send Zhao Mu away from here.

"Hey, maybe it's just like what you said, what we're doing now is just drinking poison to quench our thirst..."

After listening to all of Pei Wende's narration, the old man in black finally did not continue to quibble, but admitted all this with a sigh.

"'Mist Village' is a place that shouldn't exist, and we are also some people who should not have existed long ago."

"Desiring something that shouldn't exist is itself an act against the laws of nature."

Seeing that the old man in black seemed to let go of his knots, Pei Wende pouted quietly.

And the next development really did not meet his expectations. The old man in black who was sighing just now suddenly changed his expression, and rushed towards Pei Wende, brandishing a rusty sword.

"But even if it's against the laws of heaven, even if it's an enemy of gods and demons, I must live on!"
