It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

What she has to do is to bring her life and soul as close to divinity as possible and create the conditions to accommodate it.This is the so-called heterogeneity of the soul mentioned by Ulysses Philip in his armor theory.

But... In a sense, she can hardly be called a real life.

The essence of the magical soul is a question-and-answer machine, and it can evolve into what it is now only because she has accumulated too many questions and answers over a period of 2000 years.

Sibyl Constantine's outstanding creation ability makes her different from ordinary magical souls. Apart from basic intelligence, the prophet in her later years even dyed this magical soul with some colors, giving her a strange and bad personality.

In a very accidental opportunity, she used the contract to occupy the body of the mirror owner, depriving part of the power that belonged to Ella Williams or the evil god Yafum.

These may make a magical soul have more humanity, but these are just embellishments after all.

Can the soul of a puppet also be heterogeneous?

Shadow laughed at himself, thinking about it was pointless.At least she is indeed the most compatible with the divinity crystal left by the owner of Luoyan City. The appearance of the vision on the outside will not deceive people, and most likely will not deceive a puppet.

"How can I get more in tune with His divinity?"

"It won't be that the deeper it sinks, the more suitable it will be..."

Although he said so, Shadow soon found out speechlessly that as he continued to sink, the black-blue gem actually showed signs of melting and being gradually absorbed.

Then keep sinking.

Talking to herself, she even felt that this process seemed much easier than she imagined.

-

Judging from the body sensation and sinking speed, her current position is more than 1000 meters below sea level, which far exceeds the deepest diving record of ordinary humans in this era.

Even some wizards who are greedy for the treasures of shipwrecks, or looking for ancient heritage in the underwater ruins, will rarely dive below this depth.

The sea is a collection of unknowns and fears for human beings. Even many years ago before the doomsday bell was tolled, dangerous creatures rarely seen on land were active in the inaccessible deep sea.

Legends and ghost stories are continuously produced on the dark and violent ocean as a hotbed, and they are constantly passed on and fermented in children's stories or sailors' mouths.

Whether it is a fairy tale that has been beautified and becomes ambiguous, or some weird rules that old sailors will abide by, their origins all point to the same point-that is, human beings' fear of the ocean.

After the shadow dived to more than 3000 meters, she could already feel that the solid puppet body began to tremble under the huge water pressure. After all, there was a structure in her body that could not penetrate the sea water. It would also cause quite a bit of trouble.

However, the progress of containing the divine crystal is less than half completed, and the world below 3000 meters under the sea is almost completely dark, but even so——she suddenly felt more voices appearing around her.

It was the sound of creatures swimming in the water and pushing away the current, they were communicating in unknown ways, it was the erratic singing that gradually became clear.

Although it was almost impossible to move, Shadow could confirm that countless eyes were focused on the foreign object that appeared on the bottom of the sea, that is——to her body.

The shadow began to try to move, and the magic power furnace burned violently, sending magic power to her limbs, and the green pupils shrank and then enlarged to adapt to the surrounding environment to provide better night vision.

This is the advantage of the doll body. From the very beginning, the designer has considered the functions she needs in different environments.This adaptability far exceeds that of naturally occurring life.

When the magic power reaches a certain level, her body is strengthened and can repel the huge pressure.

The shadow finally adapted to the accommodation of the divine crystal and the transformation of the body, and regained a certain ability to move.

Even so, her visibility in seawater was still no more than 20 meters, and even her spiritual vision was suppressed to a considerable extent.

When Shadow adjusted her posture and looked around, the uncomfortable peeking suddenly disappeared, and all the eyes staring at her disappeared.

At this depth, seafloor plants are already very rare.

Shadow saw a tall cliff behind her, which made her understand that she was in a bottomless trench.

Occasionally, you can see completely blackened and collapsed shipwrecks on the cliff, like destroyed tombs.Shadow could feel that some of the eyes peeping at her were hidden in the rotting shipwreck, but she was not interested in dealing with that timid thing now.

So she adjusted her posture, swinging her legs downward with her head, speeding up her descent.

Those sights reappeared and were left behind by her, and the shadow continued to dive like a squid into the abyss that no one had ever stepped on.

"How is the situation now?"

Hyde's gaze remained on the altar, where a beautiful girl with long black hair lay quietly, her complexion was pale and delicate like a doll.

A black-blue gemstone was held in front of her chest by her folded hands, and a substance like blood vessels and tentacles grew under the gemstone, covering half of her body and slowly descending.

The altar was never broken, and the shadow's body didn't really sink into the bottom of the sea, she was as quiet as if she had fallen asleep.

Ella frowned, and she saw something quite familiar to her from the state of the shadow.

"I can feel her soul and spirit. They should still exist in this place... but the state is a bit strange."

"The shadow's magic heart is burning, and she has used considerable magic power to protect this body. I can feel that she seems to be resisting some kind of pressure, but I can't find the source of this pressure, it seems to be out of thin air It appears the same.”

Hyde still didn't take his eyes away. He continued to observe the changes in Shadow's body and explained.

"How to say it."

"Her current state is a bit like a human being entering a nightmare. If you have studied the part about dreams in magical psychology, you will be familiar with this term."

"Did you ever feel like this when you were a child? You had woken up from a dream and could see everything familiar inside the room but couldn't move your body. You were in a weird state of being awake yet asleep?"

"Actually, in this state, you are not really awake. The scene you see in front of you actually comes from your own memory of the environment. You think you have woken up, but you are actually still in a dream. "

Ella thought about it.

"You mean that although we can observe the shadow's body and soul, it's actually an illusion?"

"Do not."

Hyde shook his head.

"There is nothing wrong with our observations. I mean the shadow. Although her soul and body do exist here, what she feels now is not necessarily the case."

"Like a person in a nightmare, she now believes that everything she has experienced is real, and believes that her spirit and body have come to another dimension due to the influence of divinity."

Ella repeated it in a low voice, and captured the key points.

"You mean, she...thinks...?"

"Yes, this kind of cognitive confusion is not terrible for ordinary people, because they have no power to control their bodies that have not yet awakened. The sense of urgency will make them feel fear, so that their heart beats faster and their breathing becomes short of breath, but that's all Rather."

Having said that, Hyde paused.

"But wizards are different."

"The stronger the spiritual power of a wizard, the more difficult it is to enter this state, because they have a great degree of control over their mental and physical state, and they will not easily appear cognitive confusion."

"But on the other hand, once people like this get stuck, they will take risks that are far greater than ordinary people."

"Shadow's spirit is very powerful. Although she is not a wizard who specializes in spiritual power, she has survived as a magical soul for more than 2000 years. The spiritual power she has accumulated is much greater than that of ordinary wizards. This makes her irreplaceable. Being a qualified person also makes her face far more dangers than others."

"So, when the shadow believes that she is in the deep sea, her body really appears to be in a state of being oppressed by sea water. If her consciousness believes that she has been harmed, this harm will really act on the physical body under the spiritual suggestion on, and she also retains control over her body, just like she is using magic power to protect her body now."

Saying so, Hyde let the golden light film cover the surface of the shadow's body, but he didn't feel any pressure on the defense he had set up.

"This kind of damage comes from herself, and the defense we impose will have almost no effect. I don't know what the symbolic meaning and specialness of this divine crystal are, but if we forcefully interfere and let her wake up, most likely It will interrupt the fusion process and even cause huge damage to the shadow."

Professor Chambers just sat on the recliner beside him, half asleep and half awake with his eyes slightly closed.

Ella glanced at the professor, then turned her head and said in a low voice:

"It seems that the so-called "sinking" is not just sinking to the bottom of the sea. The sinking of consciousness and eternal sleep also belong to the concept of sinking. "

"If the risk is too high, I will take action to forcibly interrupt this process. No matter what, at least the safety of the shadow must be guaranteed."

Hyde was silent for a moment.

"Wait a little longer, I believe her."

-

Five thousand five hundred meters, five thousand eight hundred meters, six thousand meters!

The shadow glanced at the black and blue gemstone on his chest, it has now mostly sunk into Miss Doll's chest.

It's almost done, it's almost done.

Along with this process, she felt that her movements were much easier, and she was able to see farther in this environment.

This should be the change brought about by the crystallization of divinity. Things like blood vessels or tentacles pierced the body of the puppet from under the gem, and spread to the limbs along the gap between the material materials.

They brought about an imperceptible change. Shadow noticed that under his torn dress, the originally pale skin became somewhat transparent, and a layer of phantom scales spread out from the center of the gem.

Not only that, she vaguely felt some strange temperature in her body, and some gaps in the joints of the body were filled with unknown substances, but this did not make her feel unhappy.

A strange frequency similar to the heart of the magic furnace resonated with the structure in the chest. This feeling... was simply like when she used the contract to seize Ella Williams' body many years ago.

Not a puppet body, but a real life!

Shadow could feel something that was yet to be formed beating violently - and sure enough, her guess was correct.

With the previous examples of Ella and Hyde, the shadow believes that containing the divinity will give the ascender a chance to reshape the body.She will become the superior, get rid of the shackles of the magical soul and body, and become a real life!

Somewhere in her heart, this was more important than having divine power.

"This way, I can really..."

Thinking of this, the shadow speeded up.

-

6000 meters below sea level, this is truly an inaccessible area.

Even if you look at the entire history, few people have entered such depths.

The huge pressure is enough to pose a threat to the body of most wizards. Even if they control familiars or use magic such as transfiguration spells to turn themselves into fish, they still need to overcome the problems of manipulation distance and insufficient data of disguised samples.

And among the powerful wizards who can overcome these, most of them would not choose to enter such an extreme environment.Being attacked by dangerous creatures in an unfamiliar environment is not a pastime, and wizards who can reach this level are generally quite life-saving.

However, in this environment where life is almost unique, a certain outline vaguely appears in the dim light, but it goes against the common sense that Shadow has accumulated in 2000 years.

An extremely large city appeared in front of the shadow.

Although she was in an area where she could see the city, the height of the buildings could not be measured with the naked eye. They looked like a stone forest spinning upward from the ground.

——This is not the ruins of a city where humans once lived.

Shadow was sure of that from the first moment he saw it.

In the past 2000 years, she has never heard of such a city in the world. Its architectural shape does not conform to the normal structure of human architecture. Its spatial structure and dimensions are abnormal and distorted. Geometry is the complete opposite.

Like the frenzied strokes of a mad artist, everything in this city is distorted and unreasonable.
