Chapter 571: Battle of the Dead Go to the Fortress
"You're not a survivor?" Hemiel asked doubtfully.
"Am I not a survivor? And, sir, could you please move your feet?"
Rebos unlocked the gravity lock, and Si Zhan was finally able to sit up.
"Alas... Gravity Lock actually has no effect on Old Foehn... After all, apart from this patchwork armor being affected by reality.
The resilient soul that experienced the Battle of Kallorax will not be swayed by this power."
"If you want to say something, be clear and provide some key information about this place, not just remember the glorious names."
Hemiel put down his halberd sarcastically, but he was still in a position to see the overall situation.
"Hehe...what about you, Royal Guard? When you introduced yourself, did you simply state your name?"
Si Zhan Fenfeng stood up and reached out to adjust his crooked breastplate.
"I did survive thanks to my honor. What kept me from dying in that war was my reluctance to give up these glorious titles.
Foehn...Orc Strangler, Guardian of the Putuolin World, Battle Master Challenger...
Pursuing fame and fortune is not good, but it is indeed the foundation that supports me to see you all and the basis for watching the Ark World sail.
I believe you can understand this and the determination to destroy the enemy."
Hemiel responded in silence, and everyone understood that he just didn't want to agree with what an alien said.
"Thank you, Lancelot. I'm sorry you've lost another flower."
Foen Feng thanked Lancelot behind him. The guardian said nothing, stood up without shaking off the dirt on his body, and staggered towards the shrine again.
Foen Feng was eclipsed and sighed at the change in his friend.
"Sister, your faith is truly peculiar. To be honest, before I died, I was not a staunch believer in Asuryan.
But now, the God of War Cain seems to have bestowed upon me His blessing. Tell me, is this a blessing or a curse?
Caroline seemed to be lost in thought. Facing the alien, she also didn't want to say much. However, as her neck felt inexplicably itchy, some fragmented memories began to emerge.
That was before pirates plundered merchant ships, when I was ignorant of the world. Because of my negative psychic energy, no one liked me.
Almost everyone said she was a bad omen, and no servant would even think of getting close to this beautiful little girl.
In addition, there is a group of robots wrapped in latex, who can only speak "Hello, Miss", "No, Miss", and "Go to bed, Miss".
Her childhood was essentially lonely and sad. Although her parents did not abandon her, the damage caused by negative psychic energy was irreversible.
After a few years, his parents became emaciated, deprived of even this fleeting glimmer of love.
Isn't this a curse...
"Click."
"Truth" made a self-locking sound, and the itch immediately disappeared, and the emerging memories were immediately interrupted.
Caroline felt extremely ashamed of her sudden loss of consciousness, although her sudden revelation made her happy that she knew her life story clearly.
But now, indulging in it is not the state she should be in. She should be steadfast from beginning to end - she is a combat nun!
“It depends on what you do and what you stand for.
The situation that you think is causing you trouble may actually be a blessing from the God-Emperor, the most powerful tool to fight against danger.
Your immortality, your unconsciousness, is a test, but also a protection. It allows you to fight against the chaos of this ghost hall, and it also prevents you from being wiped out by chaos."
In response to Caroline's sonorous words, Foehn sighed a second time, this time it was noticeably longer and heavier.
"That's right... It's a pity that we can't find the shrine here, and..."
"And Asuryan is gone."
Rebos made the final conclusion. Fenfeng smiled bitterly and his body seemed to tremble twice, as if he was trying hard not to faint.
"Your body's condition is probably the same as those of the shadows, except that it has not been contaminated by the psychic energy of the insect swarm."
"Yes."
"So, is the shattering of your soul also a consequence of that war?"
Foehn Feng sighed three times, and with each sigh, everyone felt that his armor seemed to be a little dimmer.
"No...it's the consequence of going to the Wraithbone Fortress..."
Foehn Feng waved his hand, and the two tribe warriors stopped opposing each other. However, one of them tried to stammer, but after not saying anything for a long time, he simply turned around and left.
Fenfeng had no choice but to invite the three of them to sit beside the shrine. Surrounded by the blazing flames, he began to tell the story of what had happened.
"Alas... the last fragment of our memory was frozen in that great battle. When I woke up, I didn't realize that my body was dead.
Perhaps because my soul was damaged and I couldn't pay attention to the changes in the dense forest, I believed that the war was still going on and summoned my old subordinates to continue marching towards the Bone Fortress of Red Moon Fortress.
We were in a daze until we arrived at the Wraith Fortress in our memories, and only then did we realize that it was the souls that flowed into the circuit that were still supporting the bodies to survive.
At that time, we tried to communicate the unknown situation from limited information and connect the last fragments of each other's memories.
But when we woke up, we were no longer in the ruined fortress.
Everyone's soul was severely damaged, only I still vaguely retained the general structure.
After waking up, we went through a period of confusion, like some kind of zombies wandering in the dense forest, not knowing what to do.
Until we met the big guy, yes, the Nether Guardian. He was besieged by ghosts at that time. That moment suddenly aroused our fighting spirit.
Then it slowly developed to the present day, and I don’t know how many decades or hundreds of years it has been, and in the end there are only five of us left out of the dozens.
Guardian Lancelot, tribe warriors Skechers and Xavier, and the big guy whose soul still remains unknown..."
Foehn took off his helmet, and the three of them were finally able to take a peek at his transformed body.
The white crystals spread and grew from the skinny body. If you look closely, you can still see subtle facial features.
And inside the crystal with a blurred face, a spirit with a faint glow seemed to be staring silently at the three people.
"Well, it's a very strange change, and also a very boring battle." Hemiel said in a muffled voice.
Skech, the tribe warrior on guard, crushed a beetle and threw it into the brazier at the shrine.
The exploding dust rushed towards Hemiel, circling around him as if expressing their dissatisfaction.
"But this process of regaining faith is something to be happy about, even for you aliens."
Caroline looked from the shrine to the truth. She agreed with Hemmel, but there was also some merit in these things.
Guardian Lancelot turned around and greeted him. He took out another crystal flower from his waist bag and handed it to Caroline.
Like an orchid, its five transparent petals are dotted with blue and purple silk threads.
Instantly, Caroline felt as if she had been struck by something, her heart suddenly constricted, and she didn't know what was going on. (Chapter 37, Lin Heng's Gift)
“Before Lancelot wore the mask, he was a gardener at the altar. The power of faith allowed him to cultivate magical plants in such a place.
The quantity is very small and very precious. It seems that he agrees with your idea, ma'am." Foehn Feng said with emotion.
Caroline lost her mind again. She silently thanked the other party. When she saw Rebos looking at her, she immediately handed the treasure to him.
"Do you want to study it?"
Rebos did not hesitate. He was very interested in this crystal forest. This extraordinary alienation would definitely give birth to unique items that belonged to this place.
These crystal flowers that can stabilize the soul, those crystals that can materialize the soul, and the crystal network that can disperse psychic energy.
These alienated spirit bone crystals are a completely new form of matter, and if he can get enough of them, he will be able to study them.
Then he became more and more confident in dealing with Lin Heng.
The blue-purple light shone around, and everyone had their own thoughts. Fenfeng added a handful of new firewood to the shrine, listened to the crackling sound, and brought out his long-dormant obsession.
"Now, in exchange, it's time for you all to tell me about your situations."
This time, Rebos did not hide anything and revealed the cooperation he had reached with Aidalad, and also explained it to the other two.
Neither Hermione nor Caroline are cowards. They are not afraid of death at all. What they really worry about is their reputation.
Such a rebellious act would be difficult for them to accept unless it could bring enough benefits to the empire.
The purpose of Rebos is very unclear, and Hemiel always feels that the other party is hiding some unknown secret.
After the last failed protection, Caroline has completely obeyed Rebos's orders, fearing that she would do anything to disappoint the God-Emperor again.
"As expected... your destination is also at the Wraithbone Fortress."
Foehn Feng stood up and clenched his fists. It seemed that his prayers day and night had earned him the help of the gods. Although they were aliens, at least they had more hope than his own kind.
"Over the years, I have met several Eldar warriors from outside. They also went to the fortress to investigate the changes inside.
But either he was taken over by the shadow on the way, or he went crazy in the fortress.
Now that they are letting you join them, it seems they know that this place is a place of eternal damnation for the spirit race."
"What's inside the fortress?" Caroline inquired.
"Everything and nothing. Everything is real and nothing is fake."
"Another riddle..." Hemiel said disdainfully.
"I can't help it. My impression of the fortress only remains in this abstract state. I'll have to wait until I get there to find out what's inside."
"Do you want to go with us too?" Rebos asked.
Foehn nodded. The young warrior longed for merit, while the calm commander wanted the war to end.
"We also want to go home, we also want to return to our big family, and we also want to take a look at every corner of Iyanden.
Neither the shadow nor we will be resurrected after death. We will all be absorbed by the alienated circuit.
Those souls gathered at the base of the fortress, growing like a tumor until they finally devoured Iyanden.
This is something I don't want to see happen, but there's nothing I can do about it. I can't save Iyanden."
Rebos felt that what Aidalad was talking about was not the clearing of this so-called alienation circuit.
Of course, if he could solve it along the way, he could bypass Eldarad and get the help he wanted from Iyanna - the Webway.
This seems to be simpler than such a broad topic as the future of the two races.
"Do you still remember how to get to the fortress?"
As Foehn nodded heavily, the problem seemed to be solved.
"However, no matter which entrance, it has been occupied by those alienated shadows.
They have united with the goal of storming the fortress and clearing out the remaining unconverted Eldar.
I certainly don't doubt your strength, but the numbers on the other side can already be called an army, and I'm afraid we are powerless."
"Then can't you unite with the outside world and the surviving Eldar soldiers like you?" Caroline asked.
Fen Feng shook his head and sighed, pouring out all the troubles in his heart tonight.
To the extent that the emotional fluctuations caused the face to be mottled with glass-like spots.
"Iyanden has great heroes risen from the dead, their stories of entering the nether constructs that surround the Craftworlds could fill a thousand volumes.
Phoenix Lord Deam, Draci Starhand, and the crone banshee Elendri Deathlure... just these three heroes who broke free from the veil of death have created stories of rebounding from the bottom and escaping desperate situations.
If all these heroes could be awakened, perhaps, as the Eldar believed, their race would once again possess the power to reshape the stars.
Unfortunately, the longer a soul remains in the Infinite Circuit, the more its spiritual energy dissipates, and the less pressing the concerns of the living become.
A recently buried soul, with the memories of its family and friends still bright in its flickering consciousness, always ready to take up arms again.
At least after overcoming the mental shock of death and rebirth with Twilight.
However, as decades pass, the ties to the dead gradually fade, and the soul's personality is absorbed into the Gestalt whispers of infinite circuits.
Coupled with the chaotic psychic energy of the Alien Circuit, the number of surviving Eldar soldiers is decreasing. Even if there are some, many are just idiots who can be slaughtered at will."
"I understand. There is no soul guide."
Ribos's answer made Feng Feng not know whether to be happy or sad. He was happy that the other party was much smarter than he thought, but he was sad that what the other party said was absolutely right.
“Yes, but even with enough soul guides, this task of penetrating the spiritual world is not easy to accomplish.
The soul leaves the body and enters an infinite circuit, condensing the lost consciousness until it becomes an indestructible will entity, which is inherently dangerous.
Now, the alienated circuit has obviously started to play the role of a soul guide, but the negative effects it brings are also increasing.
Therefore, given time, the Soul Guide that Yi Yang ascends to might be affected by this alienated circuit."
Rebos is confident, so in that case, Iyanna needs him even more.
"Then get ready, we're going on a killing spree."
