Bobota clenched his fists. There was a sharp contrast between his strength not long ago and his extreme weakness now.
From heart to mind, from body to soul. The endless emptiness made him understand one thing.
All is lost.
Clan members, the fire of worshiping the source...and, my sister.
"I'm sorry." Bobota murmured to himself in a low voice. Images flashed through his mind, and his eyes became misty after these memories broke through.
"Popota."
At this time, a sighing voice sounded in my ears.
…
Angel also didn't expect that he had just finished chatting with a sobbing young fire demon a moment ago, and now when he came to Bobota, he heard crying again.
Popota heard Angel's call, raised her head, her eyes were still watery, and she repeatedly muttered: "It's over."
"This is your choice, so you should expect the ending." Angel sighed softly.
Listening to the voice in his ears, Bobota's mind slowly woke up from the chaos. He glanced at Angel, his eyes darkened for a while:
"I knew I was destined to die, but I just wanted to delay a little longer. I wanted to sacrifice Olussia to delay a little more time. I didn't expect that I would get such consequences. I had already expected that today's situation might happen, but
I was arrogant enough to think that I could control the situation."
"However, I actually didn't accomplish anything."
The biggest illusion in his life is "I can".
When Popota mentioned Orusia's body, Angel raised his eyebrows: "You still want to use Orusia's body to sacrifice?"
Popota smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He had already understood everything before when he wanted to pray for the Lord of the Profound to descend with a gift, but the other party ignored him at all.
From the beginning to the end, he was actually being toyed with and applauded by the Lord of Profundity.
Even if he gets Orusia's body now and sacrifices it to the Lord of the Deep, he probably won't get what he wants. What's more, Orusia's body has been taken away by Angel.
"Making a pact with the devil is like conspiring with a tiger." Angel said calmly.
"I got my sister's prophecy and thought I could transform from a chess piece to a chess player. But now I realize that when I pray to the devil, I can't do anything..." Bobota lifted up the one with only one floor left.
Pi's cloudy eyes looked at Angel: "Your choice is right. Never believe in the devil, and never use falling objects."
Blood and tears mixed with viscous liquid flowed from Bobota's eyes.
Angel just looked at him quietly.
After a long time, Popota raised his head and said: "Angel, can you do me a favor..."
"No." Angel refused without hesitation.
Popota was stunned. He did not expect Angel to refuse so decisively. In his mind, since Angel came to look for him, there should be some meaning. If he wanted to refuse, why did he
Want to come over?
Or is Angel just here to laugh at himself like a winner?
"You are still alive now. The abnormal energy has disappeared and the bubble dream brought to you has ended. Return to reality. At least you are not dead yet. Whatever you want to do, you can do it yourself."
"I am already a useless person. There are cracks in the source of magic, and there is no chance of healing. And the source of fire..." Popota glanced at Grewu in the distance, and immediately received a blank look: "The source of fire is gone, too.
It’s all over.”
"Is Source Fire important to Source worshipers?" Angel asked.
"Only the source fire can ignite the ancestral altar of worshiping the source and leave a fire that can be passed on within the clan. The prophecies of our ancestors have clearly stated that when the fire of worshiping the source is rekindled, we can regain our glory. Therefore, the source fire is important to us.
For a clan, it is the spiritual pillar."
Angel nodded thoughtfully.
"I can give you the source fire." Angel pointed to his earlobe. The purple and white source fire sealed Olusia's soul and could not be given to Popota. But there was still a flame mark in his earlobe.
A source of fire.
Popota looked at Angel in shock. Since Angel said he wouldn't help him, why did he give him the Source Fire?
Angel did not explain his reasons, but just said: "Since there is a source of fire, you should live to light the ancestral altar of worship in your mouth. Also, you have to find your sister in person.
"
When Popota heard this, how could he not understand that he had completely misunderstood Angel before. He did not come to laugh at himself, but used this method to encourage him to live.
There were muddy tears in Bobota's eyes, but this time it was because he was moved. If he was still in the Savage Cave, maybe he could become friends with Angel... But now.
"Thank you." Popota's eyes were filled with sadness: "However, even if I choose to light the ancestral altar of worship, I will still die."
Angel looked at Bobota, waiting for his explanation.
This matter is actually related to the core secret of the source worshipers. A look of hesitation flashed in Bobota's eyes, not knowing whether he should say it. After a long time, Bobota sighed: Anyway, he was about to die, so he was carrying
If you die with these secrets, you can only bury them in the grave. Why not tell Angel that he should be... trustworthy.
Thinking of this, Bobota eloquently told a secret about the source worshipers.
The so-called ancestral altar worshiped by the source worshipers does not actually exist in the real world. Bobota himself does not know where it is. It is just the Tao. It exists in the thinking of every source worshipper. As long as he calms down and feels it, everything will happen.
Worshipers of all origins can perceive this ancestral altar that exists in nothingness.
When Angel heard this, he was suddenly enlightened. He had read it in books, and it was said that there must be source fire in the settlement of the source worshipers. This was also the reason why some wizards wanted to hunt down the source worshipers. However, the source worshipers were killed.
Everything was scattered, but no wizard found this so-called "source fire".
It turns out that the altar carrying the Source Fire is not in reality at all.
"Since the fire in the ancestral altar has gradually disappeared, it has become more and more difficult for worshipers to sense the ancestral altar. It is recorded in the books left by our ancestors that when the fire in the ancestral altar is burning, you can see it as long as you close your eyes.
But now, to sense the ancestral altar of worship, we need to use auxiliary rituals."
"The time required for the auxiliary ceremony is at least two days. This is why, after coming to this world, I did not light the source fire immediately." Popota's eyes were filled with sadness.
Auxiliary rituals can help worshipers find the location of the ancestral altar again.
After finding the ancestral altar, can it be ignited as long as there is source fire? The answer is no. If you want to send the source fire into the ancestral altar, you still need to consume a lot of energy.
The total amount of energy consumed is very large, at least reaching the wizard level.
This is why Bobota contacted the Lord of the Deep and forcibly increased his strength. Firstly, it was to disrupt the situation in Rasudran, and secondly, it required strong strength to ignite the Source Fire.
This cannot be replaced by others, because only the source worshipers can perceive their ancestral altar.
"My demon source has been broken now, which is irreversible. If I want to ignite the ancestral altar, I don't have that much energy at all."
"So, the only way is to sacrifice yourself and use the flesh and blood of the worshiper to light the ancestral altar."
In other words, Popota will still die.
After Bobota finished speaking, he said to Angel: "Thank you for fulfilling my last wish. I am the only one left in the Baiyuan clan, so I have to do this."
"Also, although the collapse of my physical body has stopped temporarily, it will collapse again one day. Even if I survive, I can only live for one or two years at most, so I will choose to sacrifice myself. The only one I am sorry for is my sister.
...Angel, can you help me go see my sister and tell her that I still..."
Before Popota's emotional words were finished, Angel said expressionlessly: "No."
Then Angel said again: "I won't give you the Source Fire either."
Popota was stunned. Wasn't the atmosphere good before?
…
The reason why Angel decided to hand over the Source Fire to Bobota was actually based on two considerations.
First, the Source Fire is very important to the Source Worshipers. According to Popota, the Source Fire is the key to the continuation and survival of the Source Worshipers. And Duodoro, it is basically certain that he is a Source Worshiper, so
Bobota ignites the source fire, which is actually good for Dodolo.
Second, Angel doesn’t want Popota to die, at least not within a short period of time. This is not because Angel is so moved by what happened to Popota. Angel said early on that he would make no choice.
, he would have to bear the consequences of his failed choice. What's more, Bobota kidnapped him by force, and Angel had a bad impression of Bobota from the beginning.
But even so, Angel didn't want Bobota to die.
Because once Bobota dies, as a believer who has received the mark of the Lord of the Deep, his soul will return to the Deep Abyss and be controlled by the Lord of the Deep.
Once the soul of Bobota is controlled by the Lord of the Deep, everything that happens here will be known to the Lord of the Deep.
When the time comes, Angel will inevitably enter the sight of the Lord of the Deep, which is extremely dangerous.
This is the real reason why Angel doesn't want Popota to die. At least, before returning to the wizarding world, if Popota can't die, don't die, otherwise there will be endless troubles.
As for killing Popota and destroying his soul... Angel still can't do it. It's not that he can't do it, but that part of Popota's soul is already in the hands of the Lord of the Deep. When Popota dies, his soul will directly
Arriving from the land of void souls to the deep abyss, he had no chance to destroy Popota's soul.
In this case, ensure that Bobota survives.
Hearing that Bobota would die immediately if the ancestral altar was set on fire, Angel naturally rejected him without hesitation.
…
"Why?" Popota asked after being stunned for a while.
"Why did you give me hope and then let me..." be disappointed.
Angel looked at the absent-minded Bobota: "I said, you'd better survive."
"But lighting the ancestral altar is my only wish!" Bobota growled.
"Is it really the only one?"
Popota paused, a picture flashed in her mind, and she seemed to hear her sister's innocent laughter.
It was his obsession to light up the ancestral altar.
But protecting his sister is also what he wants.
"Don't think that just because you dedicate yourself to lighting up the ancestral altar, everything you have done can be erased." Angel paused: "Besides, you are not the last person of the worshiping source clan. You still have a life left and can go there in person.
