Chapter 22 Nether Energy and Soul

The beginning of memory is a hazy, hazy darkness.

Boom--boom--boom...

The continuous knocking woke up the memory owner.

As the body stretched, light penetrated into the eyes amidst the heartbreaking sound of cracking stones.

Because of the protective mucus and stone debris all over its eyes, it paused for two seconds before it could really see.

A huge, green nose caught its eye.

This is a goblin holding a stone and knocking it against the cracks in the rock.

Seeing the stone suddenly open, there was an extremely ferocious face inside. The goblin was obviously startled for a moment, and then let out a sharp laugh: "Gahahaha..."

Laughing, the goblin threw the stone in his hand on its head, making a thud.

The owner of the memory was confused by the goblin's reaction, but without thinking much, he further stretched his body and straightened his legs.

The angle of view was raised upwards, and the goblin, which was only about one meter in height, was quickly surpassed, leaving only a few curving hairs on the top of his head.

The goblin raised his head and continued to laugh, half screaming, half roaring.

This seemed to remind the owner of the memory, who stretched out an arm covered with rocks, grabbed the goblin, opened his mouth and stuffed it into his mouth, bit it, and the juice splashed.

This little thing tastes pretty good, crispy and salty.

"Gaha!" A sharp sound came from all around.

Only then did the memory owner realize that he seemed to be surrounded by such green little monsters.

Using his strength, he tore off half of the goblin corpse and threw it into his mouth again. After just two chews, half of his head and face were covered with blood - the extra lush moss on its body was probably the reason.

So it grew.

This seemed to stimulate a group of goblins, who screamed and began to charge towards the owner of the perspective.

Countless sticks, stones and even physical fists hit its body, but apart from the continuous thumping sounds in its ears, they had no impact on it at all.

After swallowing the flesh and bones, he just waved his arms twice, and the forelimbs with astonishing quality due to the rocks attached to them easily smashed many goblins into pulp.

But the goblin still screamed and rushed towards it.

Two of them even waved at the back of the head of the goblin in front because they couldn't squeeze in front. This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the goblin in front, and they immediately turned around and fought back, causing chaos in the scene.

It's a pity that being brave and unafraid of death is not enough to erase the gap in strength. In fact, because the goblins did not flee in all directions, they were defeated faster.

Only ten minutes later, the owner of the memory sat on the ground, selecting a large and fleshy stump and stuffing it into his mouth.

And at this moment, there was a snap.

A splinter of a stick hit it on the back.

It turned its head and saw a naked goblin running towards it.

Boom—The Goblin was flattened with a hammer.

It continued to bite.

"Gah!" A sharp scream came from the other side again.

He casually threw a stone about half the size of a man and killed him.

But before it could swallow the meat in its mouth, a healthy and complete Goblin suddenly emerged from the pile of "delicious food" that it had just actively selected and gathered in front of it, howling towards it.

It launched an attack.

The owner of the memory still didn't think about it, but grabbed it with great interest and stuffed it into his mouth.

Just like that, until it was full and left, goblins kept popping up intermittently nearby, and I don't know where they were hiding before...

…………

Tsk——

I didn't expect that the goblin would taste like this in the monster's mouth.

Considering that this can barely be considered a kind of human flesh, should I retching?

But then the master gave up this idea. His digestive system had long been transformed into a genetically sequenced organ, and he couldn't vomit anything even if he wanted to.

The memory of the rock-skin monster actually only has reference value.

You can tell from the crunchy texture when it eats goblin food that its memory is based on its senses, which may be a fallacy.

"Agatha, do you think so?" the Lord took the initiative to ask the dragon and lion lying next to the sofa.

Since being liberated from the task of controlling the creep, as the only unit with autonomous consciousness and advanced intelligence around the Overlord, Agatha has recently been continuously absorbing knowledge from the Hive Mind to better complete the work of staff officer and adjutant.

"There is a separation between their instincts and behaviors." Agatha analyzed calmly, "Their bodies are trembling, their pupils shrink uncontrollably, and their physical instincts are fearful, but they still continue to attack."

"Maybe it's because of the influence of culture and collective." The Lord speculated that there will always be brave men or lunatics who are not afraid of sacrifice, and there are also similar examples among humans.

"Their behavior does not show the complexity that advanced intelligent creatures should have." Agatha continued, "Their attacks are unorganized, their language is rudimentary, and their interactions with each other are not even as good as social beasts."

Unless the goblin can communicate through ultrasonic or infrasound waves that have a range that the rock-skin monster can distinguish - the rock-skin monster is a Warcraft and can hear a much wider range of sounds than humans. And it is not like the goblin's throat can produce

What ultrasound looks like...

"With declining intelligence, weird behavior, and the ability to appear and disappear, their situation is very close to that of intelligent creatures that are highly infected by psionic energy." Agatha concluded.

In the Koprulu sector, some creatures that are stunned by terazine and demons will have similar symptoms.

Of course, Goblins most likely do not have psionic powers.

In the past few days after coming into contact with the special power of the suspected "soul" in the dragon and lion's body, the Lord conducted in-depth research while moving and remodeling his new home.

From single-celled amoebas to powerful dragons and lions, almost all life forms with the ability to move freely have exquisite energy field structures that resemble "souls". Even the Overlord has discovered similar structures on some ancient trees.

On the contrary, their degree of compatibility with psionic energy is zero.

The situation in the Koprulu Sector is completely opposite. There is no "soul"-related information recorded in the Hive Mind. At the same time, almost all independently evolved lives on the planet have a certain affinity for psionic energy to a certain extent.

——In other words, void energy is an important catalytic force for the birth of life.

Even if there is really something wrong with the supernatural power, there is a high probability that some kind of mutation has occurred in the "souls" of the goblins.

Of course, no matter how in-depth the discussion between Master and Agatha is now, it is meaningless. If you catch a goblin and study it, everything will be clear.

Fortunately, the rock-skin monster still remembered the location where the goblins appeared, and the Lord had sent Arrow Gulls to search.

Having said that, the swarm of insects has now annexed the territories of dragon lions and rock-skin monsters. If the active areas of goblins can be annexed, the construction of the hatchery can be put on the agenda...
