Lu Yao drank glass after glass of ice cola.
He needed the sugar to increase his brain power.
I accidentally got big news today: Song Shiyi might be a Lord God level player.
She’s in the same class as the God of Forests and the God of Darkness. That’s an omnipotent existence in the lower dimensions, capturing other gods at will and connecting different shard worlds. ……
But Lu Yao felt that Song Shiyi wasn’t like that.
She was busy every day, working as a prosecutor at the Commission, with the appearance of a dedicated and exemplary civil servant.
It couldn’t possibly be that all the Commission’s on-staff were main gods, could it?
That would be too much of a stretch.
Public officials are so demanding now?
If the committee was really that strong, what with Liza, Jia Xiaokai, and Lin Zecheng not being at their fingertips, there would be no need for him, a citizen, to see justice done.
Lu Yao thought about it and felt that it was too outrageous, and crossed out this speculation.
That was that Song Shiyi herself had problems.
She had daily amnesia, and the memories of the previous day didn’t carry over to the next, so maybe it had something to do with this.
However, Song Shiyi’s realistic personal information was so scarce that Lu Yao really had no way to speculate.
The important information he had came from the [Eye of True Vision].
There were two abilities in Song Shiyi’s detailed panel that caused Lu Yao to be extremely concerned.
One was [Symbiosis].
It was an ability he had seen a few times.
Phyllus the Skeleton Man had it, so it was able to build exoskeleton armour-like skeletal creatures that piloted themselves inside, one and the same.
The Wishing Spirits also have it, and they compel humans with words and spirits to dismantle them and incorporate them into themselves.
As for Song Shiyi, what was she symbiotic with?
That Sparrow Apostle, Ming?
Unknown.
Another one is [Curse of the Old Gods].
Lu Yao was no stranger to this, Jimmy the Snowman also had it. However, the Yeti had offended the God of Darkness and was cursed with a punishment that made it constantly die and live, enduring repeated torture.
Which god was Song Shiyi hated by again?
Lv99’s [Old God’s Curse], completely hate-pulled.
Even Song Shiyi herself couldn’t undo it.
Perhaps the curse had something to do with her memory clearing.
Song Shiyi was haunted by many mysteries.
Behind these secrets lay unpredictable risks, and Lu Yao was not prepared to delve into them without sufficient information and definite gains.
What he was concerned about was that Isabelle and Song Shiyi had further crossed paths. Although Song Shiyi’s memory would still be cleared, it would leave a record in her notepad, so it was considered to be hooked up.
In the future, if there was any information that he wanted to inquire about, it would be easier to find Song Shiyi.
Next was the second thing.
……
Lu Yao looked at the amber in his hand.
The [Sobbing Amber] sealed the Wishing Spirit Baroye.
At this moment, the Wishing Spirit in the amber was curled up into a small black ball, shaped like a glass bead.
Unfortunately, there’s a version update going on in the simulator right now, so I can’t drop it in for further observation and testing.
Lu Yao changed his mindset.
If people on this side of Earth could enter the crossbelt, could the wish-granting spirits of the crossbelt enter the Earth world? Song Shiyi didn’t talk about that either.
Use the counterfactual to work backwards.
If wish-granting spirits could invade in groups across cross-belt groups, the city, and the world, would have been in chaos a long time ago.
Why can’t they get across?
Lu Yao could only think of one reason.
The Wishing Spirit needed to pay an unbearable price.
There is precedent for this in the Pixel World. Blood Knights stationed in castles, demoted into Wrecking Rasa Gods and Tapestry Gods, have been suppressed and significantly weakened by the power of the rules.
Lu Yao inquired about Isabelle.
“Entering another world from one world, even if the boundary dimensions are extremely close, the difference in the power of the rules will lead to the outside entrant being weakened to varying degrees, or even appearing to be alienated.”
Isabel replied.
Lu Yao looked towards the Blood Knight standing in the corner, “Nevid, what do you think?”
“What His Excellency says is right.”
The Blood Knight’s voice was cold and hard.
Three unanimous votes.
Lu Yao was going to do an experiment with the Wishing Spirit to see what would happen.
Isabelle opened her palm and whispered to Amber, “Sobbing Oblivion, return and revive.”
As the incantation was recited, the amber began to melt. The black ball inside rapidly expanded, slowly returning to the black slime monster form of the Wishing Spirit itself.
Isabel raised the nature wand in her hand and aimed it at its body.
The greatsword in the Blood Knight’s hand, on the other hand, was pressed against its head.
Although the Wishing Spirit could keep resurrecting, it would be considered indirectly controlling it if it could keep letting it die.
At this time, the wishing spirit Baroye but his voice trembled, “Please …… please don’t hurt me, Baroye is just a humble wishing spirit, Baroye has never harmed anyone.”
The [Eye of True Sight] was unleashed once again.
Through Isabelle’s eyes, Lu Yao saw the data panel of the inverted A Baroye, and it had indeed changed.
……
[Wishing Spirit LV12] Baroille
Life Value: 266/266
Mana: 133/133
Damage: 0
Defence: 0
Speed: 15
[Spirit Body]
Special resistance to normal damage and double damage from spells.
[Symbiote]
Exist in a multi-individual symbiotic stance to gain additional benefits.
……
Lu Yao looked and laughed.
Wishing Spirit’s [Undead], [Spirit of Speech] and [Long-Wished-for Cloister] were directly gone, but there was one more [Spirit Body] ability. The rules on this side of the earth were cut down with a knife.
Lu Yao had a bottom in his heart.
In the Waste Land World, the Wishing Spirit was indeed immortal and could chatter away infinitely and rampantly.
But on Earth, Baroye was too wimpy to speak, curled up into a black slime form, and humbly begged for forgiveness ever.
As the old saying goes, it’s not the fierce dragon that counts.
There was naturally a reason why Xu Wishing Spirit only dared to hang out in the crossbelt.
A monster with zero damage defence was a walking experience baby over here, and any random hero or apostle could kill it indiscriminately.
“First time in your area, please take care of a few bosses.”
Baroye slowly coalesced into his human form and knelt on the ground.
It placed its hands on its knees and thumped its head against the floor, “Baroye kowtows to you all.”
Lu Yao looked momentarily lost for words.
Worthy of being a Waste Land Salesman, the way these Wishing Spirits turned to concede was truly silky smooth.
“Enough.”
Lu Yao couldn’t look away, “So, you guys aren’t coming over because you’re afraid of death?”
“Yes, yes, Big Boss.”
Baroye knelt on the ground and said carefully, “Wish-fulfilling spirits cannot enter this world because the power of the rules will suppress our gifts and make us lose our only power ……”
“To Wishing Spirits, this world is terrifying and full of all kinds of dangers, we can easily get hurt and die.”
“I’ve heard that there are bold wish-granting spirits who enter this side of the world and are then chased around by some horrible monsters.”
“They go by many names, Taoist priests, monks, priests, exorcists ……”
Although it still had the appearance of a humanoid black slime monster, the Wishing Spirit at the moment was no longer threatening in any way. It was also very restrained in its speech, fearing that it would say something wrong.
Lu Yao nodded as he listened.
In the crossbelt, people were afraid of wishing spirits.
On Earth, wishing spirits fear humans.
Both sides all depend on who is at home, and home field advantage is the deciding factor.
Lu Yao asked a key question, “Is there anything of value in the cross belt …… which is the overlap of the two worlds?”
“There is!”
Baroye nodded like garlic, “There is! Just before I was in the overlap zone, it peeled off a shard mini world. That world is moving away, but it can still be accessed through the passage for now. It’s small, but it certainly has some value.”
“Where?”
“In the sky, that’s the moon.”
