Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2763 The Secret Of Possession
These doubts, probably only the Black Earl can give the answer.But this must involve the secrets of the Noah family, and Angel is not easy to ask...

"What the hell is going on here? Didn't you say that you are dying? Why are you now united with Lord Black Earl?"

While Angor was thinking about how to be polite at this moment, Doakes on the side spoke directly, regardless of the occasion or the atmosphere, and asked all the doubts in his heart at once.

"Also, who are you now? Is it... yourself, or Lord Black Earl?"

Doakes gazed into Vay's eyes.

Vay originally wanted to continue to sarcasm a few words, or say hi as usual, but seeing the suppressed complex emotions in Doakes' eyes, he still choked back the words welling up in his throat.

"Of course I'm still me. I thought I was going to die just now, but didn't you see that the lord rescued me." Wai shrugged, with an expression of 'who would have expected things to develop like this'.

Doakes: "You said you were going to be a puppet? Be like Ella? What's going on?"

Wai's eyes fluttered: "You said that...it was just a misunderstanding."

Doakes kept asking questions before because he was in a high mood, but now he has calmed down a little, and it can be seen that Wai's answer is very perfunctory, and he doesn't want to mention what happened before.

Doakes was silent for a moment: "There are no benefits in this world that come out of thin air. Everything has a price. Then, what price did you pay?"

Doakes did not continue to dwell on the previous topic, but directly asked the core question.

Wai's words when he was "near death" were sincere and sincere, and they were definitely not staged.From those words, it can be known that Wai must pay a price, and before that, Wai believed that this price was enough to make him die completely.

Although it seems that Wai has not changed much now, how long will this state last?Will he still become the "puppet" in his mouth?Does he have... a future?

This is Doakes' biggest concern.

What if Wai got nothing but good for a while, and when they parted, or after a year or two, he became a puppet?
Seeing Doakes' solemn expression, Vay suddenly didn't know what to say.He really wanted to be like in the past, just open his mouth to cheat, but Vay knew that Doakes could hear whether what he said was a lie, and it was just a kind of tacit understanding and tolerance to not expose it in the past.

Doakes is serious, but he lied, isn't it too inappropriate?
But if he were to tell the truth, Wai didn't know where to start.Although his own adults had exchanged some information with him before, he was still in a daze. He only knew his past thoughts, which might be a bit naive.Earl Hei used his avatar to follow his descendants. He really wanted something, but he definitely didn't want them to die.

Moreover, he didn't dare to say it without the permission of his own adults.

Wai is neither good at talking nonsense nor can he tell the truth, so he can only be silent.

Doakes knew Wai too well. Looking at Wai's awkward expression, he knew the struggle in his heart.Doakes sighed lightly: "I have many friends in the Southern Territory, but few of them are willing to pursue the truth. I still remember that when I was a wandering apprentice and heard the meaning of truth for the first time, that kind of The yearning and passion welling up in my heart, and it was you who told me about it at that time."

"The path of a wizard, the pursuit of truth, is endless. Even though you have been wasted for many years, I still think that only you will make the same choice as me."

"You have your own concerns, I can understand, and I won't ask again."

"But on the road of pursuing the truth, I will not stop, and I hope you can always be there."

What Doakes said was a confession after analyzing his heart, and it was also an expression of his true feelings.Why does he care about Wai's future? Because the path of pursuing the truth is doomed to be lonely. It is a kind of luck to have a close friend to accompany you, even if it is only a short distance.

And now they don't even have the qualifications to embark on the path of truth. At this time, if some of them fall behind, it would be a great pity.

Wai probably didn't expect that Doakes would say these words in such a solemn tone at this time.

Wai has always felt that his requirements are actually very low, and he belongs to the rare low-desire group in the wizarding world.

He also believes that no one has any expectations of himself, let alone high standards.

With such a peaceful mind, Vai was just dawdling in boredom every day.But does he think it is really the truth?What is his real thought?
During those dawdling days, Vai occasionally went to the highest point in Mesomia, looking out into the distance from the top of what was known as the "Mount of Eternity."

Why did he go there, what was going on in his mind, Wai no longer remembered, or rather, he deliberately forgot.

But at this moment, hearing Doakes' words, he seemed to vaguely see those forgotten memories.

He is at the top of the Mount of Eternity, he doesn't think about the fortune-telling shop, and he doesn't think about gossip magazines, what he thinks about is himself.

What I think about is the real self, the id, and the superego that only exists in the distant imagination.

He also thought about the future, but...

When Wai was immersed in himself, a cold snort came from his ear.

"Your words are decades late." The voice came from Vai, but it was not Vai who said it.

With such a tone, there is only one person... Earl Black!

After Earl Hei said these words, he flew out of Vay's face and stuck to the previous slate again.

As for Wai's nose, there is a dark hole.

Earl Black slowly floated in mid-air, his nostrils pointed at Doakes: "If you said this decades earlier, he might have become an official wizard. But fortunately, it's not too late now. "

Earl Black scolded Doakes for a few words, then turned to look at Wai.

"Although I don't think that Doakes has the ability to embark on the path of truth, but he is right in saying that you have a chance to embark on the path of pursuing truth."

"Are you still planning to waste time like this?"

Wai didn't answer, but his eyes were brighter than before.

What he thought before was actually wrong.Doakes still had expectations for him, but he just kept silent and waited silently; Earl Hei also had expectations for him, otherwise Earl Hei would have left long ago, so he wouldn't have spent many years with him.

The feeling of being expected is actually a kind of responsibility and burden.Although it is a bit troublesome, Wai now has the courage and is willing to bear such troubles.

Although Wai didn't speak, his expression said everything. Earl Hei let out a light sneer, which was regarded as his approval of Wai.

After confirming Wai's wishes, Earl Hei continued: "Tell him, although this is a secret of the Noah family, but those who know will eventually know."

"...It's like someone, if I don't tell you, he will go back and ask his mentor, or ask my old friend, and he will still know."

Earl Hei didn't need to call his name, everyone knew that this "someone" must be Angel.

Angel did have such an idea...but!After all, he hasn't implemented it yet, isn't it a bit too much to scold him in advance? !
Angel was complaining in his heart, but his face was calm and composed, as if he didn't understand Earl Hei's words at all, as if staying out of the matter had nothing to do with it.

Earl Hei agreed with Wai's story, Wai was relieved, and he didn't want to hide his best friend.

However, after a long time, Wai did not speak.

When everyone looked at Wai suspiciously, Wai said to Earl Hei at a loss, "My lord, I, I actually didn't understand much just now."

Everyone: "..."

Earl Hei had already planned to make another wave of ridicule after Wai finished his narration, but now he was in no mood.

With a cold snort, Earl Hei still took Wai's words and explained it himself.

……

Following Earl Hei's narration, everyone understood what happened before.

Wai was able to resist the death of the Ancient Eye, but he actually paid a considerable price... It was "sacrificing" his talent, the sense of death.

Saying "sacrifice" is just for easy understanding.In fact, it was Wai who exchanged the sense of death inherited from Noah's blood as a price to resist the blow from the Eye of Ancient Ao.

After making this decision, Wai has actually already thought about the next path.

Either be willing to be ordinary, or be like Sister Ella, let Lord Black Earl's clone become a puppet.

However, what Wai didn't expect was that he didn't even have the right to choose.Because, the death light from the Eye of Ancient Ao was too terrifying, even if he sacrificed his talents, he still couldn't completely resist the death light, but managed to save his life.

When he steps down in a near-death state and the healing spells have no effect on him, Vay's choice becomes: die or possess the Black Earl.

Between the two, Wai chose to let the Black Earl possess him.Even turning into a "puppet" like a living dead is better than dissipating completely.

As for why Wai didn't become a "puppet" in the end?This starts with a "conspiracy theory".

Many people have always wondered why Earl Hei placed his avatar next to Noah's descendants.At the beginning, there were two speculations. One thought that Earl Hei was trying to protect his descendants, while the other believed that Earl Hei had other plans.

Judging from Earl Hei's behavior, his avatar has protected his descendants a lot.Therefore, the descendants of Noah are all inclined to the former.

When did the wind direction change?
When several descendants of Noah died in succession because they ventured into the ruins, and as a result, the Black Earl avatar controlled their corpses to return to the family, rumors began to spread.

Earl Black's avatar really suggested that the descendants go to various ruins to explore and take risks, but the Earl Hei more hoped that the descendants could grow up, but it was said that it was... uneasy and kind.

Since then, many descendants of Noah have become wary of Earl Black's doppelgänger, and the style of "homeboy and housegirl" has become prevalent among Noah's descendants.

But among the descendants of Noah, there are actually people who really love to explore the unknown. Although they are wary of Earl Black, this does not stop them from dreaming of distant places.

Among them was Vaye's own older sister, Ella.

In the past, Wai was also influenced by his sister Ella, and loved to explore unknown places. Only then did he have a relationship with Doakes and became a lifelong friend.

But one day, Ella returned to the family, and when Wai saw her, she found that Ella was so stupid that she could no longer speak.Like a puppet, controlled by the Black Earl...

Only then did Vai understand that his peers were right to be wary of Earl Black.

So, from that day on, Way also suppressed the real desire in his heart and began to "stay at home".

Decades have passed in a blink of an eye, and we have come to today.

During this period, Wai also tentatively asked Earl Hei, and the answer given by Earl Hei was as guessed by others: possessed.

Earl Hei will sacrifice his talent, and then tell about the situation of the body being possessed... Ella has taken this step.

Earl Hei only said the reason, but did not say the conclusion.

This made Wai misunderstand that once possessed, he would no longer be him.His consciousness will die, and he will become a puppet of the living dead with only his body left.

Only then did the "last words" that Wai said aloud with tears just now.

The above is all the content that Earl Hei said.

Many things were briefly mentioned in it, including why the talent inherited by blood can be sacrificed, and why the earl's tone encouraged the sacrifice?
This may be related to the secrets of the Noah family, and Earl Hei deliberately avoided these details.But this is not too critical, because whether to sacrifice talent or not is ultimately not the earl's decision, but the choice of Noah's descendants.

Earl Hei is more like a witness, a bystander.

"Why didn't Vay die in the end? Didn't he become a puppet of the living dead?" The Black Earl didn't explain these two questions until the end, but said that everything was "rumor", which made Doakes couldn't help asking again .

Earl Hei: "He will not die in the first place. My clone will only allow him to regain his past talents, and will not let him die, let alone turn him into a puppet of the living dead."

At this time, Wai also explained: "My lord is right, I misunderstood my lord before."

Doakes: "Then your sister Ella..."

Wai waved his hand weakly: "Miss Ella is actually not dead."

not dead?Then what were you crying and screaming just now?
Doakes still couldn't believe it when he saw Wai whose attitude changed 360 degrees.If he didn't know Wai very well, and confirmed that the person in front of him was not played by someone else, it was Wai, otherwise he really suspected that everything was played by the Black Earl.

"I don't know the specifics yet, but my lord has clearly told me that Sister Ella is not dead." Wai explained again that he believed Earl Hei's words. At least in this matter, Earl Hei had no reason to deceive himself.

Earl Hei also spoke at the right time: "His elder sister Ella is accompanied by my tongue. Ever since my tongue possessed her, Ella seldom speaks, probably due to her psychological awkwardness, and has not come out of the shadows."

Wai also proved Earl Hei's words at this time, and Earl Hei's avatar following Ayla is the tongue.

Everyone imagined for a while, if their own tongue was sacrificed and replaced with someone else's tongue, it was still a tongue that could not be controlled by themselves, it would be quite disgusting to think about it.

What's more, Ella is a witch, and if she puts on the tongue of the opposite sex, there is a high probability of psychological shadow.

However, they were all wrong.

What Black Earl didn't tell them is that the ability of the tongue is actually related to "speaking".

It can be understood that it is not effective to say good things, and it is accurate to say bad things.

Earl Black's avatar, not every personality is as stable as the nose, and they are more inclined to the original personality.The tongue character is an exception, a bit jumpy, and very mean-spirited, always likes to say some unlucky things.

In the past, when Ella herself had natural abilities, she would not deliberately say "bad things", so it was normal.

But Ayla sacrificed her talent, and Earl Black's tongue was possessed. Even though the talent came back a little bit, the situation of the tongue and the mouth did not change.

In order to avoid hurting the people around her with her tongue and mouth, Ella simply lived alone and stayed silent when she returned to her family.

This is actually to protect Wai.

But Wai misunderstood, and Ella became a puppet living dead.

It can be said that there are layers of misunderstandings superimposed.

Earl Hei was well aware of this, but he did not intervene or explain.

Earl Hei's possession is not without desire, what he desires is his own detachment.As for how to operate it, this is a secret, and the Black Earl will not disclose it.

But what can be said is that he has something to ask for these descendants, but he will not really kill them.Even if Earl Black really transcended and became a legend, the damage to these descendants would not be too great, let alone kill them.Even, legends can feed back to them afterward. Generally speaking, it is a good thing that has advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.

As for the object of possession, Earl Black has a choice. Those who have potential and are willing to break through between life and death are truly worthy of possession.

If you have been staying at home, avoiding the unknown, and covering the way forward, then it is better to let such people continue to misunderstand.

As a result, the Noah family has now been divided into two groups: one group has been possessed, they know everything, but they will not tell the truth; Believers in rumors.

Wai used to be the latter, but this time the duel forced him to join the former team.

It can be regarded as opening the door to his new world.

This is also the reason why the Black Earl wanted Wai to fight. From the first duel, the Black Earl could see that Wai's sharpness has not completely disappeared, his potential is still there, and his decisiveness is still there. exist.Therefore, Earl Black gave Way a chance to make a choice between life and death.

However, Earl Hei didn't expect that the opponent was so ruthless, the ancient eyes were all on, and Vay didn't even have a chance to choose.

Either die or be possessed.

In this case, Wai had no choice but to choose to be possessed. After all, the Noah clan had trained him, and he was willing to do something in return before "death".

But the result was something Wai didn't expect.

Being possessed is not death, but the beginning of another journey.

Although Wai was more forced to choose possession, he finally took this path.Maybe this is also a kind of... luck?
