[187]
The continuous weathering quickly disappeared, but it can still be clearly seen that it is Xiao Yang's own head.
"You finally have a real feeling now." Rena behind him said, "You are already an immortal monster soul messenger. You must survive in this form."
"Bun bastard!" Xiao Yang angrily elbowed behind him, but was dodged by Reina.
Rina flashed a few meters away from Xiaoyang and said, "By the way, I'm sorry that I spent almost 200 of your rebirth potential just now."
Xiao Yang looked down at the bottom of his collarbone, and the number had indeed become 802.
"It seems that you still can't accept your new identity?" Rina smiled and approached Xiao Yang again, "Then let me kill him. In this way, everyone is happy."
"Don't dream!" Xiao Yang roared, and King Kong's fist came out on his arm, and he bombarded Reina with Wanjun's momentum. Rena didn't dodge and let him kick himself far away.
"Listen to me! Even if I die, I won't take advantage of you! And I have decided that I have to live, no matter what way!" As Xiaoyang said this, she was wary of Rena to attack herself again, but she didn't seem to mean it. She just stopped and smiled and said, "Sure enough, I didn't miss it. You finally began to face the reality."
At this moment, there were two "pops" behind Xiao Yang. He looked back and saw that the two cages that trapped Luo Ruzhi and Jill had disappeared, and they also reappeared in front of him.
"Captain..." Luo Ruzhi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, "I'm not dreaming now, am I?"
Not only Luo Ruzhi, but Jill also has a pale face. It seems that both of them had nightmares just like themselves.
"This is not a dream." Xiao Yang lowered his voice and said, "I have to tell you a cruel truth. The three of us have become soul messengers.
The two were stunned when they heard this, and then Renee interrupted, "I have to correct your statement. Although you are a soul messenger, they are not a soul messenger.
"What?" This time it was Xiaoyang's turn to be surprised.
"Although they have also been reincarnated, their medal level is not enough, so they can only become lonely souls when they are reincarnated, and they can't become soul messengers like you." Rina pointed to Luo Ruzhi and Jill, "Look carefully. There is a black circle printed on their eyebrows, which is a sign of loneliness.
Luo Ruzhi and Jill quickly touched their foreheads, but they didn't feel anything strange.
"She's right. There is a thumb-sized black circle in the middle of your forehead. Xiao Yang said and looked at Rena, "Tell me, what's the difference between a lonely soul and a soul messenger?"
The nature of the lonely soul is similar to ours. They also have a certain rebirth potential and can also regenerate their bodies, but they can't be regenerated after death. Rena added, "However, the lonely soul is not free, and the soul messenger can take them as soldiers, that is, the meaning of subordinates. Once the lonely soul becomes the number soldier of the soul messenger, they can't resist the will of the soul messenger. No matter what the soul messenger ordered them to do, they must obey.
"What the hell... there is such a rule." Xiao Yang held his forehead and said. He believed Rina's statement, because the only time he met a lonely soul before, the lonely soul was killed as bait by a soul messenger. In this way, the soul messenger does have absolute command over specific souls, and the latter is the so-called number soldier.
"The way to turn the lonely soul into a number soldier is very simple, just point the black circle on their forehead with your right index finger." Rena said.
Xiao Yang turned his eyes to Luo Ruzhi and Jill.
"Captain, can't you believe this woman's words?" Luo Ruzhi said in a doubtful tone. Jill was silent and silent.
Seeing that Xiao Yang did not immediately follow what she said, Reina smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't accept them. I will accept your two companions without any kind.
After saying that, she walked towards Luo Ruzhi and Jill.
"You can't think about it!" Xiao Yang immediately ran to two companions before Rena. He said, "Luo Ruzhi, Jill, I'm sorry, let me order you."
Luo Ruzhi and Jill could only agree at this time.
Xiao Yang stretched out his right index finger and gently pointed the black circle in the middle of Jill's eyebrows. A small lightning burst between Xiao Yang's fingertips and Jill's forehead. The black circle in Jill's eyebrows disappeared in an instant, and Xiao Yang felt a warm current pouring into his chest.
"Successful conclusion of the master-slave contract with the lonely soul. The lonely soul has become your number soldier, and she will not be able to disobey your orders. Xiao Yang immediately heard this sentence in his mind. It seems that Reina didn't lie.
Xiao Yang then clicked Luo Ruzhi, who also became his numbered soldier. After that, Xiao Yang assured the two that she would not force them to do the above. Both of them sincerely said that it didn't matter, which moved Xiao Yang very much. Although Xiao Yang had no choice but to accept them as soldiers, their ability to accept this matter calmly also shows their trust in Xiao Yang.
"You trusted companions, this really makes me jealous." Reina, who had been watching, said, "If only you were my companions."
Xiao Yang stared at her: "Is this the purpose of not killing us but helping us? Do you want to join hands with us?
"You can also think so." Reina smiled and stretched out her hand to Xiao Yang, "How's it going? Would you like to be with me?"
"I will ask you some questions. You have to answer me truthfully." Xiao Yang said, "After that, I will consider whether to join hands with you."
"Xiao Yang, you are really cautious as always." Reina continued to smile, "You were alive before, and I can't answer you. But now we are all soul messengers, and it doesn't matter to answer you. All right, just ask. I'll let you know. I'll tell you."
Xiao Yang asked, "That's the first question. As long as you die in the mission, will you become a soul messenger or a lonely soul?
Rina shook her head: "No. There is only one situation in which a living person will become a soul messenger or a lonely soul, that is, after completing the task, the points or medals are not enough to be left in the original scene, and then sentenced to be reincarnated asura. As for becoming a soul messenger, you must have a hell medal above the Rasha level at the time of reincarship.
Xiao Yang was still hopeful, thinking that those companions who had died before had also become soul messengers. But now it seems that this is just a delusion. He can only sigh and then ask, "After becoming a soul messenger, is there still a chance to return to a living person, or return directly to the real world?"
"I have never heard of any soul-envoy who has become a living person. However, some people say that the soul messenger can be upgraded to another existence, which is easier to return to the real world than living people. Rina smiled again, "Of course, this is just a legend, maybe it's a rumor."
Xiao Yang felt more at ease. At least this still retains a little hope.
"The third question, can soul messengers or lonely souls kill each other at any time?" Xiao Yang asked again.
"That's right. Both the soul messenger and the lonely soul belong to the Asura Road. The creatures of Asura will never stop fighting and bleeding. This is the fate set by the 'presages' for us. Rena sighed rarely, "In fact, the system encourages the soul messengers to fight with each other. As long as you kill other soul messengers or lonely souls, you can get the life index. The life-saving index is functionally similar to the number of living people, but it is not only that. It can be said to be the soul messenger or the lonely soul*, because once the life index is reduced to zero, we will immediately destroy and the soul will fly away.
"...So that's it." Xiao Yang asked again, "Then I still want to ask..."
"Hight first." Rena interrupted Xiao Yang's question, "Now I can't continue to answer your question. I'll tell you more about it later."
Xiao Yang was about to ask why the voice of the "sages" sounded: "The blood sea voyage was officially opened. The bloody sea bamboo raft set sail immediately.
A few "kaka" sounds cracked a crack in the air ahead. Opposite the crack is a blood-red sea, and there are stormy waves on the sea. When Xiao Yang was still surprised, the bamboo raft carrying them had automatically driven into the crack.
When the bamboo raft completely entered the crack, the crack automatically closed. Xiao Yang looked back and could no longer see the sea area of the frozen Sanna Island and those "sons of Iger". This is a completely new world.
The bright red sea around is surging crazily, and the bamboo rafts are swaying on the sea.
"What is this place?" Jill couldn't help asking.
"This is an ocean made of blood, generally referred to as the sea of blood." Reina whispered, "From now on, until the bamboo raft comes to the shore, please don't shout, preferably not say a word. Otherwise, those ghosts in the sea of blood will drag us down together.
As soon as the voice fell, a huge wave rose from the sea of blood in front right of the bamboo raft. A big fish with an ugly face jumped out of the waves and rushed towards the bamboo raft.
Rina immediately cut off her right arm and threw it at the mermaid. The human-faced fish held Reina's right arm with its sharp teeth, and then dived down with satisfaction.
Seeing this situation, everyone was stunned and no one dared to say a word. The bamboo raft automatically drove forward, and soon everyone saw a black continent in the sea of blood in front of them, which was the destination of the bamboo raft.
After the bamboo raft resisted the land, everyone got off the bamboo raft. Xiao Yang then asked, "What were those things just now?"
"I don't know. All I know is that we can't afford to deal with that. Once the manned fish was bitten by it, there was no way to break free, but to fall into the sea of blood with it. As soon as they come out, they must give something to them as soon as possible, otherwise they will not stop. Rena said seriously.
"Can't you fly? Just fly to the sky, right?" Luo Ruzhi raised this question.
"The sky here has a limit. Thirty meters up from the sea level is the 'sky cover', which is a barrier that can't be broken in any way. Rena smiled at the corners of her mouth, "And human-faced fish and other things can jump to the height of the 'sky cover'. So it's useless to fly. But you don't have to care too much about those things. As long as you stay quietly on the bamboo raft, they won't appear.
"What is this place?" Xiao Yang asked as he glanced around. It is surrounded by black conglomerate and strange rocks, which looks mysterious and strange.
"This is a big island, a rest area for soul messengers and lonely souls, etc. The name is Shura Island." Rena explained, "Our current destination is the special camp 'Soul Cave'. As long as we reach any soul cave on Shura Island, we can rest safely.
Xiao Yang found the strangeness of Reina's words: "Safe rest? According to you, we are not safe now?"
"That's of course. Before arriving at the Soul Cave, we may be attacked by other soul messengers at any time. Rena's eyes are shining, "Because this Shura Island is not a special place for us, and the enchanted messengers in other scenes will also come here. Some powerful soul messengers will even ambush on Shura Island for sniper warfare. For them, the weak soul messenger is just equivalent to a bunch of life indexes.
"...This is too cruel." Jill couldn't help saying.
"We are all creatures of Asura. Everything speaks with the knife in our hands, and we will see blood when we meet. This kind of law of the jungle is the common sense of Asura. Reina looked into the distance and said, "I'm used to all this."
Xiao Yang couldn't help but be a little moved: "Rina, how long has you been a soul messenger?"
"Four rounds. The enchanting messengers around me have changed four groups, and you are already the fifth group. I have killed or indirectly killed more than 30 living people, and 11 soul messengers killed by me. Rena said naturally.
Hearing Rena's words, even Luo Ruzhi and Jill stepped back a few steps in shock.
"Are you afraid of me?" Reina laughed and said, "I can understand that. After all, I'm a real killer.
"...Let's go." Xiao Yang didn't say anything more. The group was silent and walked forward carefully.
"She...is really lonely." Jill whispered to herself at the end of the team. At this time, Xiao Yang seemed to see Rena's ears move.
He shook his head. Maybe it's just an illusion.
Xiao Yang and others only met a soul messenger on the road. But the other party seemed to have no intention of fighting and quickly fled when he saw them.
"It seems that it's the right time to come back this time, and a large number of soul messengers have not come back yet." Reina relaxed and pointed to the front, "There is a soul hole. Let's go in."
Everyone turned their eyes to the direction Rena pointed out. Luo Ruzhi asked doubtfully, "Is there nothing there?"
"No, take a closer look." Rena said.
In the black gravel, two cross-cutting marks can be faintly seen, like a large fork cut on the ground with a knife.
"Sure enough, it is something that conforms to the identity of the soul messenger." Xiao Yang said, "That fork is the soul hole you said."
"That's right." Reina said as she stepped towards the fork, "I'll go in first."
As soon as she stepped on the fork, she immediately disappeared to the ground as if she had been sucked in. And the big fork immediately turned bright red. Xiao Yang tried to step on the bright red fork, but with a "bang", he shouted "Ouch", and his whole body was ejected ten meters away.
The bright red fork opened like a closed gate on a spaceship. Reina poked her head from inside, covered her mouth and smiled, "I said Xiaoyang, who told you to be in such a hurry? You deserve bad luck. As long as a soul messenger enters this thing, it will become an automatic defense state. The soul messenger inside does not take the initiative to open the door, and no one outside can enter.
Xiao Yang stood up and patted the sand on his body and said angrily, "Hencinal bastard, you deliberately didn't tell me, did you?"
"I'm not that bad." Rena snorted, "Beides, you are also a soul messenger. We are half a catty. What right do you have to talk about me?"
Xiao Yang was speechless. Reina shook her head with a smile: "Come in."
After all the members entered the evil soul cave, Xiao Yang began to carefully observe the situation in the cave. This place is much narrower than the home platform, and there is no such high-tech feeling at all, just like an ordinary cave. The cave is overgrown with weeds and some skeletons and other things. The only thing that makes this look like a system rest camp is the virtual image of the "presages" standing in the middle of the cave.
This "sage" is about the same size as the "sage" Xiao Yang saw in Wangxiangtai before, but it seems to be a little different. Xiao Yang looked at it for a while, and then found that there was a sense of indifference and murder in his eyes, and a cruel smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. The images of the "vansages" he has seen before all have the same gentle smiles as the receptionist, compared with the "sages" now much more horrible. Perhaps this shows the difference between living people and enchanted messengers to a certain extent. In any case, the living people move forward in a state of mutual assistance, and the soul messengers must survive in killing each other.
Rina stood next to the "Psage", cleared her throat and said, "The use time here is two days. Two days later, we will be automatically transmitted to the bloody sea of bamboo raft and return to the scene. There are also some facilities here, and I will introduce how to use them. But before that, I think it is necessary to explain the difference between us and the living, so that you can know yourself more clearly so that you won't make mistakes in the future.
Xiao Yang and the other two found the raised stone and sat down. Then Reina began to explain.
"First of all, you were all living people before, and the goal in the scene is to complete the task. And the soul messenger and the lonely soul are the opposite of the living. The purpose of our existence in the scene is to obstruct living people and make them unable to pass smoothly. Reina paused and said, "You should all know this. We are not going to kill the living, but to prevent them from completing the task. Finding a way to kill living people is just a means to prevent them from completing the task, not our purpose.
"Then why do you often kill us?" The question was Luo Ruzhi.
"Are you wrong about your position? You are not alive now like me." After reminding this sentence, Reina further explained, "I just said that killing living people is just a means, not a method. The reason why this method is very common is that in many cases it is the fastest
