The werewolf folded his arms and spoke in a deep voice again: "In the final analysis, just as Lord Li Re said at the beginning, ghosts and gods are scary, but in essence they are the same as the supernatural, so if we use the rules of the dungeon world reasonably, everything will be fine!"
It can be seen that after this "Ashura Wolf" devoured the supernatural, his understanding of the supernatural directly reached a higher level.
Li Re couldn't help but smile as he watched the two players' thoughts. He was just speaking out all the information he knew and summarizing it. He thought that although the world was out of control, it actually followed the most primitive order of the survival of the fittest. He thought that if the Day and Night Wandering God was already so strong, what about other ghosts who could stand on equal footing with these two ghosts? How terrifying would the stronger judge be?
Such a world...it's really great!
"Speaking of..."
The Mirror, who was smiling but silent as always, suddenly spoke. Her clear and pleasant voice echoed in the dust reflected by the rising sun. The woman with loose blond hair tilted her head and suddenly asked, "Where is the 'reincarnation of Hades' who performed the ceremony last night?"
As soon as this sentence came out.
The players were stunned.
They looked in the direction of the mirror, towards the hut from last night... The window they saw was wide open, revealing only the old woman who was holding the reincarnation of Hades last night.
The old woman lowered her head, and her exposed face and neck were covered with corpse spots, as if she had been dead for a long time.
There was nothing in her hands.
That 'reincarnation of Hades'...disappeared!
Chapter 330: Anchor Point, the Perfect Way to Pass the Level
The sun was rising, and a scarlet blood sun appeared in the sky like the eyes of a devil. The sparkling sunlight was cast between the undulating mountains and on the thatched cottages in the village surrounded by the mountains. The breeze blew the curtains slightly. The other three players who heard the words of "Mirror" were stunned at the same time. They looked at the scene in the house and couldn't help but shrink their pupils.
"Another one died..."
The 'werewolf's' face darkened slightly.
"The 'Reincarnation of Hades' is missing?" The priest's eyes widened suddenly. "Could it be that it is really as Lord Li Re said before - the old people in this village are sacrifices, and the 'Reincarnation of Hades' himself is also a sacrifice?"
"What a cruel 'Pluto'..." He couldn't help but smack his lips. Possessing the professional ability to communicate with all the 'ghosts and gods' that have ever existed in the world, he was also very sure that the 'reincarnation of Pluto' was really the reincarnation of Pluto and not some false existence.
"Whether it is or not, you will know if you go and take a look."
Li Re was still calm and composed when he spoke, but while speaking he glanced at the 'mirror' over there, thinking that this guy was indeed a 'mirror monster', with careful observations. The mirror in his sight gathered her long golden hair beside her ears in the sunlight, and in front of her was a standing mirror. She seemed to sense Li Re's gaze at the same time and looked at him again, with a smile at the corner of her mouth as if to say, "Don't thank me."
Li Rexin said, "Thank you so much..." He raised his feet and walked straight over.
The werewolf and the priest looked at each other and followed closely. No matter if they were real or not, they had to observe closely - the old people in the village were still leaning against the door of the thatched house. Those old faces had obviously noticed the situation in the house a long time ago, but their expressions were all very calm.
It was as if he had foreseen this outcome.
The six old people who died earlier.
And the old woman who died in that house at this moment.
For them, it seems inevitable... inevitable death!
"My Lord Tianren, you are here."
Entered the hut.
The window cast a dancing light and shadow, covering the stiff and cold body of the old woman who was still holding the baby on the couch, and also the shadow of the old man with a long beard in front of the couch. He had been in the room for a long time, and when he saw Li Re, the werewolf and the priest coming, he greeted them calmly.
The hunched figure of the long-bearded old man in a shabby grey robe looked at the old woman who had stepped on the ground. His expression was very calm, with just a hint of reluctance and attachment in his eyes.
The old man said: "The ceremony was successful..."
"If the ritual succeeds, will the 'baby' disappear?" asked the priest who was walking behind Li Re.
"Yes." The old man with a long beard raised his head and looked at the tall and thin priest who was a head taller than him.
Li Re did not ask, nor did he go forward to observe the old woman's body closely - in fact, there was nothing to observe. The old woman was dead and could not be deader, and it was as if all her time had been taken away at once. Judging from the stiffness of the body and the appearance of corpse spots, she looked like she had been dead for at least three days.
Three days...three days - Li Re glanced over, then suddenly turned around and walked out of the door, heading towards another hut!
The priest and the werewolf were both stunned.
Thinking they were the long-bearded old men who came to inquire about the whereabouts of the 'reincarnation of Hades' - the village chief was also stunned.
They stared blankly at Li Re as he walked into the next hut.
And that hut is also where the 'reincarnation of Hades' is located.
The 'baby' that was one of the other six 'reincarnations of Hades' was indeed still there...still crystal clear, but seemed a little bigger.
"it is as expected."
Li Re glanced at the look and couldn't help but grin.
He walked past the other six huts where the 'reincarnations of Hades' existed one by one, looked at the conditions of the six reincarnations of Hades one by one, and finally confirmed one thing.
"These reincarnations of Hades are neither offerings nor sacrifices, they are just 'anchors'!"
Li Re walked back to the original hut and spoke like this facing the confused looks of the werewolf and the priest.
At this time, 'Mirror' floated in from outside following Li Re. She certainly wanted to listen to Li Re's speculation from a close distance.
The werewolf's tall figure, over two meters tall, almost touched the ceiling of the hut. He folded his arms with a gloomy face, but did not speak.
"Anchor point?" The priest chewed on the word and waited for Li Re's explanation.
"Yes, it is 'anchor point'."
Li Re glanced at the old woman on the couch and whispered, "This is what I said before, the 'information' that could not be confirmed - but now, it can be confirmed."
"In fact, I was a little confused before. Although the rule systems of the many realities and copy worlds included in Paradise are different, there are always some rules that are the same along the way, such as heaven and earth, and life and death...High-level beings naturally have the ability to resurrect, but that kind of resurrection often has prerequisites."
Even the resurrection in the reincarnation places of the realms such as 'Shengxu' and 'Guixu' in the mountains and seas is actually limited - He cannot resurrect beings that have been dead for too long. Even if he is resurrected, it is not the original person, but another brand new existence reshaped with his soul as the origin.
It's not so much a resurrection.
More like 'reincarnation'.
"As for the Hades of this world, according to the background of the dungeon quest, He has been dead for three thousand years. Even though the gods and ghosts are one, the evil ghosts are immortal. The essence of divinity is ultimately just 'consciousness', and consciousness will die. After so many years and so many reincarnations in so many years, this divine consciousness should be dead beyond demise!"
"Now it seems that 'Pluto' is indeed dead. He has been dead for three thousand years and can never be resurrected..."
"So the so-called 'Pluto Reincarnation' ritual is not a resurrection ritual at all."
"It's a 'return' ceremony!"
"I see!" Mirror blinked her eyes. After listening to Li Re's words, she, who always regarded herself as a bystander, could not help but exclaimed after understanding: "Is Pluto just using this ceremony to return from the past when He was still alive to the present?"
"Yes."
Li Re glanced at the mirror and thought that although he only understood it after his reminder, this guy could react so quickly, which showed that he was quite knowledgeable.
Even the priest who dealt with ghosts and gods the most besides Li Re realized it belatedly: "Returning from the past... That's how it is!"
"The voice of Pluto that I heard earlier was actually his will transmitted from the past to the present!?"
"I thought my ability had improved and I could clearly hear the voices of ghosts and gods that no longer existed, instead of just vague words -" the priest suddenly realized and was a little disappointed.
Having said that, most people understood.
I understand that the essence of this ceremony is not resurrection but return. Since we are returning from the past, we naturally need an anchor point in the present time, and we need sacrifices. These "reincarnations of Hades" are really reincarnations with the soul of "Hades". They are also the anchor point for Hades to return from the past to the present. The channel opened with one's own soul as the anchor point is more stable...
"Now, the first day's ceremony has been completed. The first 'reincarnation of Hades' has turned into an anchor point to open the passage and lead to the 'eye' of Hades!" Li Re pointed to the 'moon' that still existed on the horizon.
He said, "The first day is the eye, and the next six days are the rest of Hades."
Go day by day.
Coming back little by little.
The baby that has become an anchor will naturally disappear.
And the old people who serve as sacrifices for the energy needed to open the channel will die.
Even right after death, it was as if he had been dead for a long time!
Because what is needed to open the passage to the past is not simply energy - but 'time'.
It's 'time of death'.
This is why the other babies all grew up a little bit in an instant - because as Pluto's souls, they will also be affected and grow up at this moment when Pluto is close to the 'now'.
At last, Li Re continued to add: "Because there is only one moon, Pluto has only one eye to look at the world, and he has only one sight from the past to the present, so only one ceremony can be held every day-"
"But with each day that passes, Pluto's power returns from the past to the present more."
In other words, as time goes by, although the enemies they encounter will become stronger, the help will also increase.
This is the essence of this ceremony.
It is the most correct way to complete the tasks issued by the park.
This was exactly the thought that emerged in Li Re's mind when he saw the image of Pluto appear!
At that time, he, who also possessed the ability of "Law of Heaven and Earth", looked at the huge and majestic image of Hades, which did not look like he had just been resurrected, and felt that this did not look like a resurrection.
Coming back from the dead and returning to the world would not be like this, in this state.
This state is more like He has always been in this world.
Never leave.
It just exists in a realm that even ghosts and gods are unclear about.
But at that time, Li Re didn't know what that field was. Now he knows - that "field" existed in the past of this world!
"so..."
After a long silence, the werewolf, whose face became increasingly gloomy, said in a deep voice: "In the end, are all the people in this village going to die?"
As soon as these words came out, 'Mirror' and 'Priest', who thought he was still confused, paused. The priest thought, wasn't this a question that had been determined before?
Li Re couldn't help but look at the other party——
He looked at the werewolf's slightly flamboyant gray hair and those beast-like pupils.
The wolf seemed angry.
Or rather, he was always angry.
I've been angry since before.
When he heard that the ritual required sacrifice and knew that the old man would definitely die in the ritual...otherwise, he would not have been so angry when facing the arrival of ghosts and gods!
He was upset about the fate of these villagers and these old people!
“Lord Celestial Being, this is our fate!” Although the old man with long beard could not understand what the celestial beings were discussing before, he now understood what the beast-like celestial being said, and he could not help but say, “It is already very good for us to live to this age, and it is already lucky for us not to become livestock raised by ghosts and gods. It is also our honor to let Lord Hades return next…”
"What a damn honor!"
The wolf bared his teeth and said, "Sacrificing something in exchange for something else, this kind of thing - I haven't practiced it since I was a bronze warrior!"
"Just like what Lord Li Re said before - in this world, except for this village, the humans in other places are muddle-headed and have no self-image, just like livestock. Only the people here can be called human beings - so is it worth it for us to sacrifice humans to save the 'livestock'?"
"I don't believe in that so-called Hades even more!"
"An evil ghost is still an evil ghost after all. Even if he puts on the cloak of God, he is still just an evil ghost!"
"Sir Werewolf, don't you want to complete the mission?" Jing tilted his head and blinked his scarlet eyes as his flower umbrella moved slightly.
The priest also opened his mouth.
"Quests and such - they also have to follow my mood!" The werewolf spoke in a low voice. While he was speaking, he did not look at other players, but stared at Li Re and whispered: "If we can't even protect the people in front of us, how can we save the world?"
"If you only focus on the present, you will have no future - but if you don't even have the present, there can be no future!"
"And you don't actually want to die, do you?"
The werewolf looked at the old man and said, "You, too, want to see the world return to normal, and want to truly live... instead of hiding in the mountains and lingering on like this, right?"
The old man with a long beard fell silent.
Of course he did.
Of course they did!
After all, they are just barely surviving now, but who doesn't want to truly feel life rather than just survive?
"Then it's decided." The werewolf bared his teeth and said in a low voice: "I don't care what you think, but next - I will protect the people in this village as much as possible on the premise of completing the mission... I will take the initiative to attack in my own way, instead of sitting and waiting for death - I can see that if we really sit here for this so-called ghost mission, we will definitely be wiped out!"
"Just like I said before!"
"I don't care whether you agree or not."
"Anyway, I don't like any necessary sacrifices. I will protect everyone, including you!"
"It was so in the past, it is so now, and it will be so in the future!"
