I have a hero simulator

"You, you, don't come over here! Do you want to vent, no, bully girls to vent your anger? But you are a man! Demon Shen Yuan!"

"You also know that I'm a demon? But it's too late! Use your power, the "Book of Wisdom", to predict the future and see what you will become!"

The dark demon Rhaast showed a brutal grin, and then grabbed Echidna, who was still trying to struggle, with his giant hand. She had no power to resist and her soul was pulled out directly.

In an instant, the entire green hill returned to normal and turned into a dark and gloomy tomb. Under the shocked gaze of the other witches, the soul sealed in Echidna's body (corpse state) was forcibly pulled out and grasped in the palm of the devil's hand.

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

"Should I eat you? Or should I throw you into hell?"

The Darkin Demon opened his shark-like bloody mouth, and he could easily swallow the Soul Echidna, which was only half the size of his arm, in one gulp.

"Wait! Don't bully me like this! I was wrong! Isn't it enough that I promised you? Let me go! I will honestly follow your plan. I won't dare to offend you again!"

Echidna became nervous. With her profound wisdom, she could easily guess that the demon in front of her was no ordinary person. He possessed methods comparable to those of a god.

"Okay! Then I'll eat half of your memory!"

However, despite agreeing verbally, Rhaast still bit off half of Soul Echidna's body.

A soul-tearing pain came, as if punishing this guy.

"I've eaten half of your soul. If you want to regain the 'knowledge of the other side' you lost, then you must honestly assist me in completing my plan. Otherwise, you will lose this knowledge forever!"

"No--!!"

Soul Echidna's face turned extremely pale. Nothing could make her more panicked than now.

For a scholar who seeks knowledge, suddenly losing half of his knowledge and memory is more painful than death.

For example, the world's only encyclopedia and dictionary, which programmers have worked hard on for more than ten years, suddenly had half of its pages torn out and half of its code deleted.

That feeling is undoubtedly despair and collapse.

This is also the best punishment for the Greedy Witch, so that she will never dare to deceive herself again.

"Wow, I'm sorry..."

Echidna was on the verge of tears. She was like a scholar meeting a soldier, a beauty meeting a ruthless bandit.

Chapter 257: Perfect Resurrection! The Heroic Template of the Soul Shepherd Yorick!

The soul of Echidna obviously went too far. Her test angered Shen Yuan, and he transformed into the dark demon Rhaast.

Then, after Rhaast destroyed the Dream City.

The next to suffer was Echidna's real tomb.

"I've swallowed half of your soul, and your body will become my puppet. If you want to take it all back, you must complete my plan!"

Heavy footsteps sounded in the real tomb. Rhaast's huge height made him look like a Gundam warrior.

He brazenly destroyed the walls and dug in the underground tunnels.

"It's over, it's over!"

Soul Echidna's expression kept changing. After half of her soul was eaten, she was already in tears.

Now, she didn't expect that Rhaast's nose was so sharp that he could smell that this tomb was not where her body was buried. Instead, he dug straight towards the real tomb at an extremely fast speed.

Maybe it's because of its large size and strong strength.

Rhaast spiraled the living scythe in his hand into a drill-like weapon, transforming it into a battle tornado and charging towards the true tomb.

Half a minute later.

Another huge tomb was broken open, and the barrier was torn apart, and Rhaast's body appeared inside.

There were several candle-like things in the witch's tomb, which were lit as lights in the tomb. Under the illumination of the lights, only the last door was left, protecting the coffin of the greedy witch.

"Stop. It's filled with witch miasma. If you open the door, you'll go insane and fall into a cycle of nightmares. That's called the demon-breaking miasma."

Soul Echidna's words slowed Rhaast's movements.

"You finally said something caring. If you had been hospitable from the beginning, you wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament. But now, the right to open this door is in my hands. I'm not afraid of the witch's miasma at all!" "Nine Eight Seven"

Having said this, Rhaast raised his scythe, ready to chop open the door.

"Regarding the Witch of Envy—the place where that witch was sealed is also filled with this miasma!"

Soul Echidna suddenly called out, continuing, "You should know it well enough. No, even if you didn't, you should know it by now. The Witch of Envy slumbers in the shrine containing the Demon Sealing Stone beneath the Dune Sage's Tower. That very place is filled with a thick, invisible miasma. If someone is rejected for not meeting the graveyard requirements, the miasma will invade their mind, destroy their body, and abuse their soul. It's truly a malicious phenomenon! And even the witch cultists who seek to resurrect the witch are rumored to be forbidden from approaching."

"It's only natural that the Witch Cult can't enter. If they could remove the seal, the Witch of Jealousy would be resurrected, which is why they've created this miasma barrier."

Laast recalled the purpose of the lazy Stuart Petelgeuse. He chose Emilia as a living container because he was afraid of this miasma.

"But I am! The Darkin! I! Am! Rhaast!!"

"You are crazy!"

As the soul of Echidna stared in amazement, Rhaast, in the form of a giant demon, violently destroyed the stone door. In an instant, the witch's own miasma that had been sealing her coffin surged in, surrounding Rhaast's body like a swarm of bees, and a suffocating sense of despair surged into the spiritual realm.

Pain...Shen Yuan truly felt the triple torture of body, mind and soul.

But he did not make a sound, but endured it. His extremely strong will resisted the erosion of the witch's miasma, and he walked slowly towards the coffin in front.

"What the hell is wrong with you! Aren't you worried about yourself at all?!"

Soul Echidna was stunned, but she soon discovered that Rhaast's flesh, which was constantly corroded by something like a strong acid, was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The speed of cell regeneration almost offset the dissipation of the miasma.

"Tired, old, and half-dead, yet I come for you."

Rhaast arrived in front of a coffin, his movements suddenly becoming gentle as he gazed at the corpse of the Greedy Witch Echidna.

"Madman! Demon! What are you going to do to my body?!"

Soul Echidna didn't dare float into the miasma, and watched Rhaast's movements anxiously.

"I will not punish you, I will resurrect you."

"Resurrect me...?"

The soul Echidna did not know that Shen Yuan possessed the power of the [Ruined King]. This power could unlock a series of powers related to the Icebreaking Curse or Shadow Island heroes, including [Shepherd of Souls Yorick], commonly known as the hero template of the Gravedigger.

"The mists roll, searching for a place to take root. From the earth they came, and to the earth they return. This land will never heal, but I will lay it to rest."

As if performing some kind of ritual, Rhaast recited a eulogy, and the evil green mist transformed into a spell of destruction, beginning to devour the witch's miasma and transform it into his power.

"I am the rift between life and death, the breeze between breath and grave~"

"I will take these souls back to their final destination. Wherever that may be, the mist will take everything away!"

"Echidna, I will perform your ritual!"

"Wait in the realm of transcendence, die with me, and then, be free!!"

After releasing the skills of [Final Rites + Mist of Sorrow + Resurrection Eulogy], along with the disappearance of the witch's miasma, a soul-sucking suction force came from the direction of her corpse, followed by the astonished and unbelievable gaze of the soul Echidna.

Rhaast opened his bloody mouth and spat out the other half of the 'witch soul' he had swallowed. The soul fell on the corpse, which almost fully displayed the beauty of white and black, coldness and elegance.

"Wait—are they resurrecting me? But half of my soul hasn't returned yet!"

Soul Echidna was anxious. If her body was resurrected, what would happen to her other half of consciousness?

But Rhaast ignored her and continued with the resurrection ceremony.

"Join our immortality, Echidna! More... For the dark path of the mist requires more!"

"what......"

A sudden breathing sound came from the corpse of Echidna, like cardiopulmonary resuscitation. She suddenly opened her eyes and let out a pleasant moan.

"I... am resurrected?"

Echidna looked down at her familiar body, all physical collisions and tactile sensations returning.

"Alive, but only half alive! I'm still out there!"

Soul Echidna shouted angrily, she seemed very anxious.

Anyone who knows that his soul is split into two, and then one half of the soul is resurrected with the body, while the remaining half of the soul becomes a wandering ghost, will feel uncomfortable.

It's like I became my own stand-in!

"I am your master, Echidna. You will join my army of immortals as the Maiden of the Mist!"

Rhaast explained, laughing as if to deliberately irritate Echidna's spirit. "You now possess the power of immortality. Whether you like it or not, your body belongs to me. I can awaken all the corpses and force them to sign a contract."

"Come, come to me and bear witness to your loyalty."

"I...?"

Under the gaze of the soul Echidna, her body seemed to be controlled as she walked towards Rhaast's body step by step, approached his tall body, and then leaned on his legs.

"Ahhhhh!!"

The soul of Echidna screamed as if her hopes were dashed. In the past, she believed that controlling the world was as easy as breaking an object with a wave of her hand, but she decided to focus her efforts on protecting this fragile world.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't do anything on her own, which made her feel so powerless and hopeless.

The current scene made the worries of her past life resurface in the consciousness of the soul Echidna, making her feel that the devilish monster before her was as far away as her "world that can never be overturned".

"Calm down! My other self."

At this moment, the physical Echidna suddenly spoke. Unable to resist interrupting the spirit Echidna, she spoke, "Do you remember that saying—'One person cannot lift the Stone of Kwiyin?' That's our motto. It means never give up hope. Only by gathering like-minded people can we achieve our goals. Only in a world of mutual understanding can we realize our original aspirations. Therefore, by joining hands with Mr. Shen Yuan, using 'killing' as a sharp weapon, and striking a bargain with the dragon, we can move towards our aspirations."

"No...I don't remember at all!"

Soul Echidna crouched on the ground, clutching her head, wailing, "I don't think I've been given this part of my memories! Damn, I've become a 'pessimist.' My other self, you should be the optimism and hope that embodies my personality. But as the pessimistic and anxious me, all I remember are failures, burning myself in unattainable dreams, and bleeding profusely from my own greed!"

That's right. Rhaast split Echidna's soul in two. The good part remained in her body and was resurrected. The bad part was separated and became a sad and lonely ghost.

"You devil, give me back the other half of my soul!"

Soul Echidna shouted angrily.

"Give it back to you? That's not impossible. If you're willing to take on the role of another representative of the optimists, I'll agree to sew up your soul."

A long time ago, Echidna was worried about everything, so a witch with an antisocial personality appeared.

If her worries and pessimism were suppressed and her optimistic and hopeful nature took over, perhaps the witch would become a good person.

"Okay...Okay, I promise! It's all my own business anyway, so there's nothing wrong with being a little happy."

The soul of Echidna had no choice but to obey, and then Rhaast squeezed her soul into a ball, and then pulled out the witch soul from the zombies nearby and merged them together.

Shen Yuan was extremely skilled in soul manipulation and stitching techniques. Like a master craftsman who had worked on a factory assembly line for more than ten years, he quickly stuffed the complete Echidna into her body.

When she opened her eyes again, Echidna stared at the strange yet familiar ceiling of the tomb, as if in a daze.

Then tears flowed from her eyes. The fusion of the two memories made her recall a series of events in the past. Only then did she realize how important the things she had lost were. At the same time, her eyes towards Laast were no longer so hostile, but respectful.

"sorry......"

The true Witch of Greed, Echidna, wiped her tears and said, "All of these 'trials' are merely a script that I and the other witches have agreed upon. While I have my own selfish motives, I regret not being able to explore my own future. However, I respect your terms and will no longer resort to schemes and intrigues to achieve my own goals."

At this point, the Greedy Witch Echidna gazed deeply at the Darkin Rhaast and said, "Please take me and the other witches out of the spirit world! We don't want to stay in this dark tomb anymore. We want to return to the human world. Please! Reincarnate their souls into my artificial elf, Luz, and other replicas, and leave the Dream City."

Then, Echidna revealed many secrets.

Based on the clues she provided, the Witch of Envy wasn't their real enemy, and the witches seemed to have a common enemy, and Echidna had been hiding from him, her, and it.

...

After half an hour.

"Echidna, what do you know about Pandora, the Witch of Sin hidden in history?"

Shen Yuan sat back down at the table in the tomb and conversed with Echidna.

"The Witch of Disguise? She's still alive..."

Greedy Witch Echidna nodded slightly, then half-jokingly said, "But do we really have to keep talking here? Or are you worried I'll escape? You resurrected my body, and we have an unbreakable contractual connection. You can cut off my life source at any time."

"Okay." Shen Yuan looked at the surrounding environment and understood what Echidna meant.

Then he glanced at the other five witch souls: Pride, Gluttony, Wrath, Lust, and Sloth. They had different postures and were all looking at this side curiously.

"Let's go out first."

Shen Yuan walked in front, and Echidna, the 'Mist Maiden', followed beside him. Behind him, there were five witch souls attracted by their families. They looked like a team of imps summoned by a necromancer.

This camp is extremely luxurious, with 1 demon and 6 witches.

Apart from Shen Yuan, his fighting power is second only to the top-level Witch of Jealousy and Sword Saint in this world.
