Chapter 916 Doubts
Chapter 916 Doubts
"Look, don't be anxious."
When Director Scorpio's expression was escalating from fear to being completely distorted by mysophobia, the old man of the third generation grabbed his pants and explained with a smile:
"What I put into your soul is actually my belt, but the material of this belt is hair.
Although I failed to become a Pillar God, at least I am a human with a value of 80 points. My body is naturally an excellent forging material, even stronger than the Four Supreme Pillar Gods.
So after I died, I processed my body, collected the hair, and added some other materials to make a belt to deal with some special situations. "
"Special circumstances mean..."
"To save my life. You all know that I am so weak, and I have a bad relationship with the world of the dead. I have been staying in the Sage Cemetery for many years. What if some overlord of the world of the dead suddenly gets angry and attacks me and hurts me?
So in order to avoid being bullied, I specifically targeted the situation in the dead world and forged this belt into an abnormal object that can avoid death. Even if you fall off the cliff of the end, you can float up. But I didn't expect that I didn't use it myself, but I gave it to you first."
is that so?
After listening to the explanation of the third-generation old man, Director Scorpio's distorted face finally calmed down a little, and then he turned around and cast an inquiring look at Leon.
After a moment of silence, Leon asked expressionlessly:
"Is there a difference?"
"..."
"Ahem! There is still a difference."
Before Director Scorpio's expression became distorted again, the old man from the third generation coughed dryly and interrupted:
"The realm of the dead seems to have stabilized again. Although my belt can delay death, it cannot completely avoid death, so let's hurry up and rescue them! It will be bad if we delay any longer."
"..."
This old man...there must be something wrong with him!
Looking at the old man of three generations who disappeared into the ebony coffin, Leon couldn't help but move his hand that had grabbed his collar before, and an inexplicable look appeared in his eyes.
Ever since he knew that he could obtain information about "abnormal objects" through touch, the third-generation old man seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally keeping a "distance" from him, avoiding any direct physical contact. The most he could do was touch the clothes it was wearing.
What's even more strange is that the clothes worn by this "dead man" are not extensions of memory evolved from the soul like those of other deceased people, but are completely independent of his soul. They are genuine ordinary clothes.
When he wanted to go a step further and take the opportunity to touch the "flesh" of the third-generation old man, his fingertips directly swept across nothing, as if he was really just a piece of intangible obsession.
And it's not just his body, the same goes for his coffin. He can touch all the other coffins in the cemetery, but this one is different. He can clearly lie in it with Emma, but when he reaches out to touch this coffin, he can't touch anything at all, let alone get any information.
So he must be on guard against me...or even more than just me!
After quickly reviewing the information about three generations of old men in his mind and discovering some strange and suspicious points, Leon's eyes narrowed unconsciously.
The realm of the dead is definitely not a good place. The six-sided elephant deer even went crazy from staying there for too long. However, the old man of the third generation stayed away from the Cleanup Bureau and lived in the Sages Cemetery all year round. Doesn't he feel uncomfortable?
Also, it seems that after each generation of Taurus directors "takes office", the three generations of old men will immediately come over, and will not return to the world for a while until the Taurus directors die of old age. This is also full of doubts.
According to him, if he couldn't be the strongest blacksmith among the living, then he would have to be the strongest blacksmith among the dead. This reason seemed reasonable, but was he really after the title of the so-called strongest blacksmith, or was he deliberately avoiding something?
This thinking is complicated and lengthy, but in terms of the speed of thinking, it is just a blink of an eye.
After taking a glance at the coffin of the third-generation old man, Leon did not continue to try to explore his secrets. Instead, he took out two coffin-carrying demons from the mirror world and threw them at the coffin of the third-generation director.
The third generation old man already knew his "ability". If he really wanted to find out, he would have to reveal his true abilities. However, he had no idea what he was like. Apart from other things, the abnormal things on his body were extremely dangerous. He only collected his own hair and made a belt that could avoid death. So where were the other parts?
Bones, flesh, blood, marrow, fingers, teeth, skin, tendons, five senses, internal organs, limbs and torso... three generations of old men even make use of their own hair, so how could these "materials" that are obviously more advanced than hair be wasted?
"Are you two stupid?"
The urging voice of the third-generation old man interrupted Leon's thoughts. He poked his head out of the coffin, glanced at the two invisible demons carrying the coffin, and then said with disgust:
"How can two people carry the coffin in the middle? If my body hadn't rotted away long ago, you two idiots would have thrown all my bones out!"
"..."
……
"Have you recovered yet?"
Half lying in the dark void, looking up at the steep cliff above, the Cancer director, who was being strangled by a bunch of curly hair and slowly falling down, couldn't help but move his strangled neck, and then said with a puzzled look on his face:
"When you were taken down just now, did you feel like you suddenly lost control?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Have"
After a long silence, Director Sagittarius, who was floating more than 20 meters away, finally slowly opened his eyes, shook his twisted limbs, and replied expressionlessly:
"I was ready to die with the carver, but my soul was suddenly pulled away, and my secret technique failed. Then I was swept down by the lantern in the faceless man's hand."
"me too."
The sleepy Pisces director thought for a moment and then said:
“When I was targeted by the Digchuan Yellow Earthworm, I considered abandoning my own body, replacing my soul with its body, forcibly dragging its consciousness into a dream, and completely destroying the incarnation of the Six-Faced Elephant Deer.
But just as I was about to do so, my soul was also pulled and swept down... Joan of Arc, is it the same for you?"
"I didn't... ahem..."
Director Taurus, whose front was bleeding, coughed, then shook his head and said in confusion:
"I simply have never fought before... The incident at the Watchtower Palace caused my soul to be missing. Granny Crow-Eyed and the Carver almost pulled my soul out of my body...
How are the others doing? Are we the only four who were shot down? Are Capricorn and Director Huang Dao safe?"
