Angel looked up and down at Reynolds. His soul was quite pure, without any impurities inside. Compared to other people's souls, Reynolds' soul was still full of vigorous vitality.
"What are you looking at?" As soon as the purple giant beast left, Angel kept staring at Reynolds, which made Nice a little curious.
"I'm wondering if there's something about Reynolds that increases his luck." Angel expressed his suspicions.
Nice laughed and shook his head: "How is this possible? I checked Reynolds' soul as soon as I came here."
Nice gestured with his eyes: "As long as it is hidden in the soul, nothing can escape my eyes. There must be no weird things in Reynolds' soul, let alone the items you said to increase luck.
.”
Cindy on the side also heard their conversation, and she whispered: "Mr. Nice, is it possible that Reynolds was born with a lucky bonus?"
"You think so too, that the monster left because of his luck?" Nice asked doubtfully.
Cindy hesitated for a moment and nodded: "The sea beast came here once before, and we saw it swimming towards us with our own eyes. However, it left again halfway through the swim."
Nice was a little surprised and said: "Is there such a thing?"
The fat apprentice on the other side also pondered for a moment and said: "I also thought of something. Since we took Reynolds with us, it seems that we have never encountered a storm again. Before that, we always encountered all kinds of terrible things in this sea area.
celestial phenomena."
Cindy also nodded: "By the way, when we met Reynolds, Lord Ferro also said that he was a lucky guy, because Reynolds had been wandering deep in the fog zone without encountering any attacks."
As one thing was said, everyone recalled all the details that they had not noticed before.
When mentioned individually, there seems to be no problem, but when they are all put together, the coincidences are a bit abnormal.
Reynolds seems to be a truly blessed son, always able to escape all kinds of dangers. The place where he is is the safe zone.
At this time, Nice couldn't help but look back at Reynolds. After a while, he still shook his head: "Still nothing was found. It's a normal soul. If there is really something that increases luck, maybe it is near his body.
At least his soul is not abnormal."
Cindy asked with some confusion: "After a person dies, can the body still affect the state of the soul?"
"Who told you that Reynolds is dead?" Nice wanted to sneer a few words, but seeing that it was Cindy who asked the question, he held back the curse words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"Reynolds is not dead?" The other apprentices looked sideways.
Nice: "I advise you to go to the Tree Spirit Court to take a few courses on soul systems after you go back, and listen carefully to the content of the courses. Such a pure soul cannot be achieved by a dead soul."
The apprentices showed a look of realization, "Because Reynolds is not dead yet, if there are items that increase luck on his body, it may really affect his soul."
Nice nodded: "That's right, but I still think it's a bit too taken for granted. Does something that can continuously affect one's luck really exist? Moreover, it is not a lucky thing for him to appear here in a soul state now.
.So, even if you are really lucky, there must be a limit."
Angel thought of the lucky leather scroll that he had spent so much effort to find, and nodded secretly.
Maybe, it's really just a coincidence?
Nice shook his head: "Forget it, luck or unlucky things are not the focus now. All I want to know now is what happened to that monster just now?"
Ness looked in the direction where the purple giant beast disappeared, his brows furrowed.
Speaking of the monster, Angel was also quite curious: "You just said it has a backer? Does that monster have any extraordinary background?"
"That's what I guessed, but it basically didn't run away." Nice was about to tell Angel about the situation of the monster when he suddenly thought of something and looked at the surrounding apprentices. They also pricked their ears at this time, thinking
To listen.
Nice: "Since you have encountered it, it doesn't matter if I talk to you. However, its matter is related to some secrets of the Devil Sea. What I say today must not be spread outside. Do you hear me?"
Cindy and the other apprentices looked at each other and nodded without hesitation. According to the Ness wizard, this is a secret blessing! Sometimes it costs hundreds or thousands of magic crystals, but it may not be possible to obtain it.
, they can make money by hearing it.
"I'm giving you an advantage. This news is my private information. I found it from the ruins of a research institute in the Heart of the Swarm. I have never told anyone else." Niss snorted a few times and told Angel:
"This monster, if I read it correctly, may be related to the beast of disaster."
The so-called beast of disaster refers to a terrifying giant beast that lived in the Devil Sea a long time ago, perhaps dating back thousands of years.
This giant beast was born in the ocean, gallops in the sky, and is the true overlord of the Devil Sea.
"Although there have been various horrific celestial disasters in the Devil's Sea a long time ago, what really makes the Devil's Sea famous is this giant beast. Its destructive power is extremely strong. If it is willing, it can even overturn an entire area.
The sea area. Wherever it swims, there is deathly silence. For this reason, it is called the beast of disaster."
"At the time when it existed, there were many legendary wizards in the Southern Region. But even legendary wizards would not usually provoke this one."
Although this giant beast is also at the legendary level, its huge and indestructible body, as well as its spiritual power that can shake an entire sea, have already exceeded the upper limit of human legendary wizards.
In addition, it is not keen on landing on the mainland and only likes to stay in the Devil's Sea. Therefore, the human wizards are directly separated from it. It has occupied the ocean, while the human wizards are entrenched on the continent.
"There is such a powerful giant beast in the Devil Sea? Did it die later?" the fat apprentice asked curiously. It should be dead, right? After all, they have never heard of such a giant beast in the Devil Sea today.
"Death?" Nice glanced at the fat apprentice with contempt and said, "You are really ignorant. For a being with such strength, it would be difficult for him to seek death."
"I don't know why it disappeared later. I just saw it in a manuscript written by Insecott in the 'Heart of the Swarm'. It seemed to have left on its own, and it must not have died anyway."
He left by himself? Everyone secretly speculated that maybe it was because the world could no longer tolerate it and had "expelled" it out?
Cindy: "Does this giant beast have a name? Or is it just called the Beast of Disaster?"
Nice: "Insekot called it 'Siz' in the ancient Naz language in its manuscript. But I can't be sure whether that is its name."
Shiz, in the ancient Naz language, means the feather of salvation that carries the kingdom of God.
But that giant beast didn't have any sense of salvation, it was more like a world-destroying existence.
"It's difficult to verify the real name. Let's call it Sheeds for the time being." Nis paused and said, "The purple giant beast that looked like its whole body was covered with ore just now is at least 80% consistent with the sketch of Sheeds I saw in the manuscript.
resemblance."
Because of this, Nice guessed that the purple giant beast just now had a close relationship with Sheets. Maybe it was the offspring of Sheets left in the Devil Sea. As for why the offspring hatched after so many years, this... is not
important.
"I see, if it is really the descendant of Sheets..." The apprentices shuddered. According to Nice's description, Sheets' power is enough to destroy most of the wizarding world in the Southern Territory. If you mess with Sheets, you are simply looking for death.
Fat Apprentice: "Fortunately, Lord Ferro didn't kill it at that time, otherwise the consequences would have been unpredictable."
While they were lamenting, Angel, who had been silent for the whole time, said softly: "I seem to have seen the thing about Schiz that you mentioned."
Nice looked over in surprise: "No way? You also broke into the ruins of Insecott's research institute?"
"If I had broken through the ruins left by the Heart of the Swarm, I wouldn't have asked you for the manuscript on hatching soft-morphing insects." Angel said angrily: "I saw it in a notebook.
.”
The name of this diary is "Chronicles of Crowley No. 14". Because Crowley's matter involves secrecy, it doesn't matter if he talks to Nice, but there are apprentices with low strength around, so Angel did not mention Crowley.
name in.
"In this diary, a secret is recorded. It is said that there is a mysterious giant beast in the Devil's Sea that was born in the ocean but can fly. It can incorporate the Devil's Sea into its own territory by affecting the energy field of the Devil's Sea, and monitor it.
Movements throughout the Devil’s Sea.”
Nice nodded: "Yes, it should be Sheeds."
Angel continued: "This giant beast was very powerful and occupied the Devil Sea for an entire era. However, it was later brought to the Phantom City by Gruzdeward... and then nothing happened."
Angel added the whereabouts of Sheets. It did not die, nor did it leave on its own initiative, but was taken away by a more powerful mysterious being.
"Lord Pat, is Gruzdaward a personal name? And the City of Phantoms...where is this?" The fat apprentice looked at Angel with curiosity on his face.
Angel: "You don't need to know this, they are not from the Southern Region anyway."
Nice had vaguely heard about the City of Phantoms, and secretly muttered: "So Shiz went there..."
Nice: "I heard that once a monster enters the City of Phantoms, it is difficult to come out again. So we don't actually need to be afraid of that purple monster just now. We can just capture it and study it next time we encounter it."
Nice's eyes suddenly lit up.
Angel: "I don't know much about Gruzdaward's Phantom City, but as far as I know, he loves monsters very much, and he also classified the monsters in the Phantom City into different levels. Sheets
Now I am a diamond-level citizen.”
Angel's hidden intention was also very clear. If Sheetz sensed that the larvae of his own bloodline had been killed, and asked Gruzdaward to handle the matter as a diamond-level citizen, Nice would definitely not be able to escape. - Of course, the premise is that
That purple giant beast is the bloodline left behind by Sheets.
After listening to Angel's words, Nice was also a little resentful: "I just said it casually, yes, just said it casually."
"It's best not to reveal the fact that it was in the foggy belt," Angel said.
Angel was not worried about Sheets, but Gruzdaward... Frost had reminded him that if Gruzdaward saw Toby, given his passion for monsters, he would probably rob him by force.
Go. So, it is best not to offend the other person, and walk around him.
"I understand this." Niss also looked at the other apprentices, who all swore an oath to not reveal the existence of the Shitz larvae.
After the party was finished, Ness looked in the direction where the purple giant beast disappeared: "However, putting aside other things, I am very curious, why did it suddenly leave just now? What happened in that direction?"
"Who knows, maybe it's another turf war." Angel said casually.
The disputes between sea beasts are basically territorial issues. The reason why the sea beast just targeted them was because the aura released by Toby's snake-bird form was considered a provocation to the other party.
"Ignore it." Angel didn't want to waste too much time on this monster of unknown origin. What he wanted to know more now was Nausicaa's situation.
Back to topic.
Reynolds still looks dazed to this day. He was unmoved even when the purple giant beast attacked him before. He looked like a fool.
Angel looked at Nice: "Reynolds' situation, what exactly is going on?"
Nice: "I checked, and there was nothing wrong. It was just a kind of emotional stress. His consciousness was suppressed, and his emotions took over."
The fat apprentice on the side muttered in a low voice: "I don't think Reynolds has any mood swings."
Nice glanced at him coldly: "Emotions dominate, but it doesn't mean anger or excitement."
After a pause, Nice said to Angel again: "I also discovered something. Reynolds initially showed memory loss, not because the memory was hidden, but because his consciousness was fragmented, and part of his consciousness was not in the soul body.
"
Angel: "Separation of consciousness? What do you mean?"
Nice: "I guess there is a very small part of consciousness left in his physical body."
In other words, the lost memory may remain in the consciousness of the physical body.
This situation is actually similar to a dual personality. But Reynolds is not a dual personality, and the consciousness remaining in the physical body cannot support an independent personality.
His pure consciousness was partially separated. The specific reason is currently unknown. This is the first time Nice has seen such a case.
But what is certain is that memory loss is definitely related to the separation of consciousness.
Looking at Reynolds, who had his back to them and stared blankly at the sea, Nice said: "I guess his current condition is probably due to the separation of consciousness."
Angel: "Is there any way to wake him up?"
Nice pondered for a moment: "I can try to use some soul-based abilities to interfere with the flow of his soul power from the inside, causing his main consciousness to fluctuate and draw out his sleeping thoughts. However, direct interference
The effect is not ideal, it is best to have a primer.”
"Introduction? What introduction?"
"An external source of stimulation should preferably be able to stimulate his emotions to fluctuate. For example... Nausicaa."
