Offer a savior to the infinite world!

Ah, yes, domestication.

It was not until this moment of near-death that she realized that she had long been tamed by her past life, tamed by that man, and completely transformed into a different person.

"There is actually no difference between humans, animals, and beasts. It is the same whether they are humans or the Guiling people."

"All it takes is some hunger, some suffering, and some cases of people being treated badly."

"At that time, dignity and personality are just things that can be easily discarded. Once you fall to that point, whether you can still live as a human being is no longer something you have the power to decide. So, don't fall to that point..."

Yes, just a period of hunger, just watching those who starve to death, just some painful punishment, is enough to completely change a person.

I have no way of remembering what my life was like before that.

All I can remember is how I tried my best to please that crazy master, and how I begged for survival.

The reasons are usually very simple. Crawling on the ground like a dog may just be to get more meat and vegetables for the daily meal. Helping the master to hold down the hands and feet of others, or playing those cruel and bloody "games" on behalf of the master, is to avoid being tortured in this way.

And just like that, I was changed little by little. When I finally realized it, I had become distorted. Even if I escaped from that hell, my soul had become the same as hell.

I have completely forgotten what my parents looked like, and what I would have looked like if I had not experienced this disaster. Even if I try to recall, I can only remember a vague house and the songs my family taught me, but I can no longer remember the tunes, and even only remember one or two sentences of the lyrics.

If she forced herself to recall further, the house would become like a dungeon, the only thing that would truly impress her, the only past she could still remember.

It was as if she was actually born and raised in a place like that.

"What exactly is Atreus's ability?"

Lin Yi, who was standing aside and watching all this, suddenly asked.

"...Heh, do you think I would say that? Isn't that a bit too much of an underestimation?"

Bashir, who was already on his deathbed, sneered and his body gradually fell limply.

"Mr. Lin Yi?"

Lixiang turned around, unable to understand why Lin Yi suddenly asked such a question.

"Well, it's almost time to get going, Basher, the King of the Guiling Tribe. No matter what evil deeds you have done, at least now, death will give you the final peace."

During the next conversation, Lin Yi turned around and no longer paid attention to the other party's situation.

After hearing this, Basheer closed his eyes, stopped talking, and his body finally collapsed completely, losing the strength he had been maintaining.

The King of the Returned Spirits, Basheer, died.

Chapter 38: Sudden Cold

At this moment, another battle has finally come to an end.

According to the information provided by the Guiling Hunter Team, there are a total of three Guiling Kings in the Guiling Clan. Now, two of these powerful beings have died at the power of the Savior.

Lin Yi felt that if he wanted to investigate the reasons for the extinction of the Guiling tribe in the future, the savior might occupy a very important part.

“It’s really hard to relax…”

Lin Yi could only sigh and mutter to himself about this.

The enemies we face in this mission are completely different from those in the past.

No matter what kind of power the enemies had in the past, they were either pure scum with corrupted character or monsters that could not understand or communicate with each other. So if you want to fight, you fight; if you want to kill, you kill; there is no need to think too much.

However, the enemies encountered in this mission, such as Niltat and Basher, are strong and cunning, but the reasons behind their evil deeds make it impossible to simply view them by the standard of good or evil. Especially considering the position of the [Savior] itself, Lin Yi felt even more uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, no matter what they thought, the two sides could not communicate normally. The first one who jumped out, Niltat, was completely crazy, and the second one, Basher, was also very abnormal. And the last one, Atreus, who had not made any movement so far, Lin Yi was sure that the enemy that the savior would face next must be him. It was estimated that he was probably not a normal person, at least his brain was definitely not normal.

Normally, he would not have just watched his two teammates die one after another and done nothing.

To be honest, both of the opponents this time are very powerful. If they didn't have to come up one by one, why would they play the confusing game of you alone against a group of us? If only Basher and Neiltat combined to attack, Lin Yi was sure that the Saviors would suffer casualties and it would be impossible to win the battle without anyone sacrificing.

However, now is not the time to think about this kind of question.

Let’s first find a way to investigate what’s going on in this strange place.

"Is everyone okay? If you still have any physical problems, I still have a lot of Holy Grail bottles in stock."

Seeing Lixiang covering Basil with the bedding from the next room, barely leaving a little dignity for the dead King of the Spirits, and then standing up, Lin Yi began to speak and was the first to walk out of the room and return to the corridor.

"I'm fine, Miss Bachelor...I wasn't hurt."

Li Xiang lowered his head and spoke softly, his tone a little low.

Lin Yi didn't know how to persuade the other party to be more open-minded, so he reached out and patted Lixiang's head gently, then looked at Gu Mingdi Jue.

Without saying a word, the monster girl just shook her head slightly, indicating that she was fine at the moment and there was no need to worry.

"This place feels like a completely independent world. Hmm, it reminds me of Merlin. If he were here, I wonder if he could see anything..."

The young knight called Lily, although she looked like a young girl, was wearing majestic white armor. She stood beside Ritsuka with a serious face, holding a long sword, keeping guard, and whispering to herself.

Judging from his appearance alone, he is just a half-grown child, but according to Ritsuka, this child is a "king". The existence of Heroic Servant is truly magical.

"From what we can see so far, this building should be a two-story building. Most of the rooms on the second floor have been confirmed, but the first floor has not been fully investigated. Next, let's see if we can find some clues on the first floor. Oh, yes, and that thing..."

Lin Yi suddenly thought of something and turned back to the room he had just been in, and pulled off a bunch of small keys from Basheer's neck.

When Gu Mingdi Jue explored Basher's memory before, there were fragments of this key in it. It seemed that this was an ancient relic of the Guiling tribe obtained by the person who once imprisoned and tortured Basher from some channel. Basher's shadow power also changed after touching this key.

Lin Yi suspected that this key itself had some obscure connection with this strange multi-layered shadow space, but they did not have the characteristics of the Guiling clan, so they had no way of seeing the specialness of this key.

After taking the key, Lin Yi returned to the corridor and found that Ritsuka and her servant Lily had entered the warehouse next door.

This warehouse may not look big on the surface, but you can feel how spacious it is once you enter. Although it is inside a residential building, it feels like you have stepped directly into another different space, and its size is completely comparable to that of a warehouse in a large factory.

Stored in this huge warehouse are cans of food, some canned vegetables, some canned fruits, and some that appear to be canned sea fish. However, the vast majority are plain-looking canned raw meat.

"This is what is called a war grain storage depot."

Lily reached out and poked a can of fish, as if she instinctively wanted to open the can. But considering that she was in an unknown area, she tried her best to be patient and continued to perform her guard work honestly. Well, although it was very difficult to look away.

"These cans, well, there's no expiration date or ingredients or anything like that."

Li Xiang, who was holding a can of raw meat, frowned and said this in confusion.

"…Don't touch that can."

Lin Yi spoke at this time, and at the same time, Gu Mingji Jue reached out and took the can from Ritsuka's hand.

"Oh, sorry, just curious."

Thinking that she had done something wrong, Ritsuka shrank her neck, but then she noticed that Gu Mingji looked at the can with some disgust, and Lin Yi's expression looked very ugly, as if the can itself was something very bad.

By the way, the name translated by the system is [Meat and Livestock Canned Meat], does this refer to pork? It doesn't seem like it, meat and livestock... Ugh... This building is not a product of human technology in this world, so it is very likely the legacy technology of the Guiling tribe. According to the elders of the Guiling hunters, long ago, humans were slaves of the Guiling tribe and lived a very miserable life for a long time.

So these canned meats, so these canned raw meats...

"Your mind works very quickly. You understood it right away."

Seeing the drastic change in Lixiang's expression, Lin Yi smiled helplessly and looked at the canned meat that filled up half of the warehouse, numbering at least 100,000. The expression on his face became even uglier than before.

"How do you tell?"

Gu Mingdijue looked at Lin Yi at this time.

"Why do you suddenly ask such a question? How can you tell the difference?"

Lin Yi was somewhat puzzled by the monster girl's sudden question.

"I am a monster, and monsters naturally eat humans. So even though I am not a monster that feeds on humans, I can still distinguish between human flesh and the flesh of other creatures."

Gu Mingjijue said this very confidently.

[However, you are a human being. Normally, you shouldn't be able to judge this kind of thing so easily, but you did. And, you shouldn't have deduced it from the name of the can like this little girl did, right?]

[You judged it in a more direct way, but how did you do it and why were you able to judge it? Do you know the reason for this? ]

The words transmitted based on telepathy entered Lin Yi's mind. Perhaps realizing that this kind of question might not be appropriate, Gu Mingji Jue did not continue to ask in front of Ritsuka, but chose to communicate mentally.

[So why did you suddenly ask this question? If I were to make a judgment based on this, it might be because it smells strange...]

Lin Yi answered somewhat uncomfortably, and then he suddenly froze.

A strange smell, indeed, the meat smelled wrong, very strange.

But why can I smell this special scent?

I don't have Tanjiro's amazing sense of smell.

But the feeling at that moment, the feeling that I had smelled this smell somewhere before, even the smell of blood lingering between my teeth, and...

[In other words, is it related to the past that you have forgotten? ]

【…】

Lin Yi did not answer.

In an instant he realized that this matter was related to the past and his lost memories. He seemed to find it difficult to control his emotions. At the same time, he didn't know how to express the inexplicable thoughts that surged from the bottom of his heart at this moment, so he froze in place.

What's wrong with me?

I didn't feel anything just now, how come I suddenly...

[Sorry, I was just considering whether it would involve some things, but now it seems that the stimulation is still too great. Please forgive my offense.]

Gu Mingji Jue's voice rang out again, allowing Lin Yi to break free from that strange state.

After realizing the nature of the meat, Ritsuka no longer wanted to stay in the warehouse for a moment, so Lin Yi and Gu Mingdi Jue followed her and left the place together with the female knight who followed Ritsuka.

But until now, until this moment, Lin Yi still couldn't completely get rid of that strange feeling.

The smell of blood on the teeth, the feeling that consciousness was on the verge of collapse, and everything was shattered... This feeling...

I...I...

...At that time, dignity and personality are just things that can be easily discarded. Once you fall to that point, whether you can still live as a human being is no longer something you have the power to decide...

Suddenly, the words of Basheer, who had just died, made Lin Yi break out in cold sweat on his back.

Chapter 39: Part of the truth?

Lin Yi has always not cared much about his past.

If he lost his memory, he lost his memory. If he was expelled from the original universe, he was expelled. Anyway, he now had a place to settle down and a group of good friends. Moreover, the savior mission of saving civilizations in crisis was in line with his ideas. Therefore, Lin Yi continued to live his life with a carefree attitude.

Don't actively pursue the lost past.

Even when relevant clues were in front of him, such as the time when he faced the Fire of Rebirth, Lin Yi did not do anything afterwards.

Chapter 40: Shelter?

In the small square that has completely turned into ruins, Basheer's body in the real world has completely turned into minced meat, and his original appearance can no longer be seen.

Under the order of the Returning Soul Hunter elder, the area was quickly sealed off and cleaned up, and the reason given to the outside world was still the same, that of a pipeline explosion or something like that. As for whether others believed this reason or not, the Returning Soul Hunters did not have the energy to care for the time being. The appearance and death of the two Returning Soul Kings had made Elder Jelf realize that something was wrong, and he immediately contacted the Returning Soul Hunter headquarters, and after explaining the situation, he prepared to stop the ship and return.

As for Jotaro, he has not yet contacted the elders, but returned to the bathroom where Lin Yi and others disappeared.

At this moment, the bathroom was still empty, as if part of the ground and walls had disappeared out of thin air. Ritsuka Fujimaru and Kakui Komeiji, who were originally in the bathroom, and Lin Yi, who came into the room later, had all disappeared without a trace.

Jotaro felt that they should have entered the world of shadows, but he had no way of judging the situation inside. The only thing he could be sure of was that his teammates should be safe, or at least alive, otherwise their coordinates would not be there. Moreover, Basheer's death should be the result of what they did inside. It can be considered that it was their efforts that allowed them to completely defeat this enemy.

But, after such a long time, they still haven't come out.

Is there anything else going on in there?

"Sir Jotaro, you are seriously injured. Let me help you take care of it first."

While Jotaro was frowning and thinking, Hassan the Cursed Arm appeared from the side, carrying alcohol gauze and needle and thread that he had got from somewhere.

"Um……"

Since his teammates weren't going to show up for a while, Jotaro simply left the bathroom, sat down on a chair in the room, took off his coat and allowed the assassin servant to disinfect and apply medicine to his wounds before stitching them up.

"I didn't find any anesthetic on board. Is that okay, Your Excellency?"

The cursed wrist picked up the suture needle and looked at Jotaro and asked.

"no problem."

After answering in a calm tone, Jotaro looked towards the bathroom and returned to silence.

Then the cursed wrist began to sew up the shoulder wound, then the wrist, and finally the leg. During the whole process, Jotaro Kujo did not make any sound, as if he did not feel the pain of the wound, and just sat there quietly.

"You are truly a savior, Mr. Jotaro. However, this treatment can only be used as a temporary emergency measure. The wounds on your wrists and soles are penetrating wounds. If the internal organs are not treated in time, they will easily become infected. Well, thanks to the useless shadows that attacked you, they did not bring in dust, otherwise such wounds would easily cause tetanus. In addition, severed blood vessels and tendons are also difficult to heal, but it should not be a problem in a short period of time."
