As a player, can you be normal?

Chapter 790 Spiritual Communication
As she spoke, she slipped her fingers into her hair and pulled out a silver needle.

This needle sealed her entire appearance, making it impossible for even the most perceptive Li Nuo to see her true state.

Miaham's body began to deform.

A thin crack appeared below the collarbone, followed by a second, a third... One after another, cloudy eyeballs squeezed out from the flesh, their pupils contracting, rotating, and all staring in the same direction.

Her waist, abdomen, arms, and even the side of her neck were gradually filled with these sticky, bloodshot eyeballs, which blinked and oozed transparent mucus.

Her lower body was even more repulsive, with several thick tentacles bursting out of her body, curling and stretching restlessly like the appendages of some deep-sea monster.

They fell to the floor and dragged along, making a sickeningly sticky sound and leaving behind a slime that shimmered with an eerie glow.

"Do you... really want to keep asking?"

Miaham's face remained sweet, and her clear eyes even held a hint of innocence.

The face and the deformed body form a horrifying contrast, as if the most exquisite doll had been forcibly sewn onto a nightmare creation.

Aita stepped forward, walked to the front of the group, put Miaham's clothes back on her, and shook her head at Li Nuo.

Miaham handed the needle that sealed him to Aita, so they could see the whole thing.

The Silver Needles of Illusion

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: Seals the distorted body, making the user indistinguishable from a normal person; even the most powerful perception in the world cannot detect it. It is a forbidden item.]

[Brief Description: Produced by the "Bulma Trading Company," this forbidden item was found at great risk by Miaham's benefactor after her suffering. Its use by uninfected individuals will cause widespread outbreaks of ominous signs.]

The above is from the panel description of "Sky Corridor".

Aita displayed the panel for Li Nuo and the others to see.

“Miaham…why didn’t you tell us…” Mr. Derby stood there, stunned. This girl was his student, but he didn’t know about this: “Your resume clearly states that you are…an ordinary student.”

“Mr. Derby, my past cannot be revealed; it’s a requirement of the Academy.” Miaham shook his head with a wry smile. “The reason I am the way I am now is because I had a child with an ancient god back then…”

Derby: "Huh...?"

Players: "..."

Miaham: "Yes, I had a child with an ancient god."

Miaham recounted his painful past.

Because of her family's genetic predisposition, she was captured and subjected to experiments.

They mate with ancient gods to produce "artificial ancient gods".

In Bloodborne, the gods can use human bodies to give birth to offspring.

The true "final boss" in the original game, Queen Yharnam, had a child with an Old God named Mego, who is the true creator of the dream world in the Bloodborne movie.

The story of Bloodborne originates from the Sumerian mythology, which the Sumerians believed was a sacred thing to bear children for the gods.

Because the common characteristic of the Outer Gods of the Krishnamurti system is that they are indescribable, this is similar to spiritual communion.

“Where are your children?” Aita asked.

Miaham shook her head, saying only, "They died in the experiment."

After a long silence, she spoke again.

"My place with the ancient gods... was wiped out by 'Bayerkinworth,' and I was rescued. Since then, I have become a student at the academy... Perhaps as a student, under the watchful eye of Bayerkinworth, it is safer for everyone."

Mr. Derby: "Then you still dare to come here... This dreamland is related to the Healing Church."

A dim light shone on Miaham, the shadows flickering and swaying. A cold wind blew in from outside the door, and she shivered, hugging her shoulders. "It's the academy's requirement."

……

1888 1 Month 2 Day.

"Is that so?" Li Nuo asked.

Blackie nodded: "If Miaham is right, the problem originated from this place."

She entered a series of commands on the computer and opened a sealed letter. Accessing this information would be extremely difficult without special personnel.

In the "Deep Water City" area, there was a "Paradise of Debauchery." As the name suggests, it was meant to be a place of pleasure for the wealthy and powerful. Later, some minor incidents occurred on the North Coast. It was actually a dispute between two farmers over cotton in their fields. The butterfly effect caused this utopia, which was meant to provide pleasure for the wealthy and powerful, spread to this place.

The upper echelons of the cotton production organization were arrested at this amusement park when a policeman accidentally stumbled into an underground warehouse and discovered a group of girls being used for human experimentation.

“Deepwater City…” Li Nuo understood.

“I remember that the city Fenrir controls is Waterdeep,” Xiaowu said.

“Human experimentation is often associated with the Healing Church,” Blackie said.

“Miahham was one of the girls who were rescued back then?” Piek asked.

Lenny said, "It was probably done by the Fifth Academy of Bayer Kinworth. Those guys are all militant. They probably blocked the news afterwards. After all, Miaham's situation is special, and it's safer for her to stay in Bayer Kinworth."

Blackie said, "And then the purpose of sending Miaham to find Cain becomes clear..."

She couldn't say what came next, but everyone knew the truth.

Miaham's alienation was out of control, and five years of college life proved that she had no research value. Out of humanitarian considerations, she could not be destroyed, so she was sent with a rescue team to find "Cain Hearst".

Theoretically, this will lead to two possible outcomes.

First, Miaham died in Cain's world. Her death may have triggered an abnormal energy burst within her body, causing the entire Cainhurst to disappear.

Second, Miaham's successful discovery of a cure for Cain will be a revolutionary achievement for the academic community.

“No matter how you look at it, Bayer Kinworth is the beneficiary,” Li Nuo said with a smile. “I quite like the style of your college.”

"Stop joking... I know it's awful, but sometimes... never mind, I won't argue," Blackie said.

"Li Nuo, can we rule out Miaham as the problem?" Xiao Wu asked.

"Yes, but also no," Li Nuo said.

If Miaham dies, she will unleash an unstoppable energy—a power beyond the World Tree—and besides, she has a child of an ancient god.

Waterdeep is Fenrir's territory. Fenrir must have played a crucial guiding role in Miaham's spiritual communion. It's hard to say what Fenrir might do using the curse on Miaham.

What is certain now is that Fenrir's individual combat ability is approximately 0.9 to 0.95 times that of Nanami, and he can summon Lennon, and he holds the souls of thousands of players in his possession.

Therefore, the best option now is to prevent Miaham from being killed and to prevent her from having contact with Fenrir alone.

Xiao Wu moved closer to Li Nuo.

"Hey, you mean that level 200 side quest..."

"Yes, it's related to Miaham's curse."

In any case, the level 200 side quest will definitely bring you a lot of benefits. The fairest thing about the Corridor is that the more you put in, the better you get out.

They need something stronger, and they're willing to go through fire and water for it.
