Endless Debt

soul.

The most mysterious and noble unknown existence among all things, it maintains the shackles of human nature and is the cornerstone for the condenser to embark on the path to transcendence.

Ever since humans realized the existence of souls, the study of souls has never stopped.

Judging the boundary between humans and demons based on the amount of soul storage, the pale void left after the soul is removed, the mania driven by one's own instinctive longing for the soul, the condensed blood-colored philosopher's stone, and even the remaining content in the philosopher's stone. Memory echoes...

Soul, a magnificent and beautiful thing.

After Boluogo said this, he fell into silence. His blue eyes looked at Teda's expression, trying to catch all his reactions in his sight.

"Soul?"

Teda whispered, he was lost in thought because of Boluogo's judgment. After a while, he shook his head with a smile.

"Who knows about such a thing?"

"You don't know either?" Boluogo was a little surprised. He thought TEDA knew more.

"How could it be possible to know that you are the first Sublime Master to successfully usurp the power of the Overlord in seven years. Before you appeared, all our research materials came from the surviving memories and the body of Overlord Xilin. "

Teda sighed, but soon he cheered up again, looking at Boluogo as if he were a treasure.

"You should know Xilin's life, right?" Teda added, "In the King's Secret Sword who knew the inside story of the Bloody Night, someone once called Xilin a fugitive. He spent his whole life escaping from his father. Nightmare of the Bloody Night.”

Boluogo nodded. He had done enough homework before coming and carefully read the information given by TEDA several times.

The impact of the Bloody Night was huge. Once the crazy truth was leaked to the people, it would only cause turmoil. For this reason, the King's Secret Swordsmen spent a long time blocking and modifying the information.

Under layers of lies, the truth of the bloody night was finally covered up, and those who died silently disappeared into history.

"During the long escape, Xilin joined the King's Secret Sword and continued to be promoted and improve his status. According to reports, the King of Terror tried to recall him several times, but Xilin refused... He was disobeying the king's orders. ." TEDA said.

"But he is the only descendant of the King of Terror. Even if he disobeys the order, the king will not kill him. At most, he will be placed under house arrest like an animal." Bologo stated.

"That's true, but what's interesting is that the King's Secret Swords all support Xilin. Although they are directly serving the royal family, there are only two people left in the royal family. In the eyes of many of them, young Xilin Far more worthy of allegiance than the crazy King of Terror."

Teda continued to talk about the unknown secret.

"According to intelligence, Xilin has been in constant dispute with the Pillar of King Power, but as he becomes more powerful, the restraint of the Pillar of King Power on him is also weakening day by day, until Xilin becomes the Glorious One, even if he is afraid of The King of Killing has to admit that he can no longer control his child."

"I've read all these in the information... Is there anything worth noting?" Boluogo asked curiously.

"Don't you notice the contradiction?"

Teda said slightly surprised, he thought Bologo would notice this.

Boluogo was silent for a few seconds, then he spoke with a strong sense of surprise rising in his heart.

“We still don’t know why the King of Terror set off the Bloody Night, nor do we understand why only Xilin survived among the entire Kogadel royal family.

But if the King of Terror wants to restrain Xilin, the easiest way is to let Xilin live as an ordinary person, instead of implanting an alchemy matrix into him to make him a condenser. "

The silver snake wrapped around the palm of his hand, and its delicate scales scratched Boluogo's skin, bringing a slight chill.

"In this case, it is impossible for Xilin to become a condenser, nor possess such strange power, let alone become a gloryer."

After listening to Boluogo's words, Teda nodded with satisfaction and affirmed.

"This is a judgment circulated within the Bureau of Order. Perhaps Xilin and the King of Terror are in opposition, and in the confrontation, there is another force that helps Xilin... You must know that during the bloody night, he was just a My child, even if someone in the King's Secret Sword is inclined towards him, he cannot be saved by the King of Terror."

"Overlord Xilin is the most powerful sword holder in the history of the King's Secret Sword. The alchemy matrix he carries has always been an unsolved mystery before I appeared," Boluogo murmured to himself, "If the order The judgment of the Bureau is correct, so in order to control Xilin, the King of Terror will never give such power to Xilin..."

"We hypothesized another mysterious and powerful being who protected Xilin, nurtured his growth, and gave him such an alchemical matrix."

TEDA's expression became excited, and the fanatical emotions on his old face were completely released. He stretched out his hand and pointed at Boluogo.

"We don't know who that existence is, but now... this power has been transferred to you."

…

The excited discussion between the two did not last long. Compared with theoretical words, Boluogo and TEDA preferred practical operations. For this reason, various metal products were added to the blank workbench.

Boluogo was like a blacksmith, using his secret energy to continuously hammer the metal and shape the material he came into contact with. As bursts of green light burst out, TEDA put on thick goggles and watched from the sidelines.

It felt like being at a construction site. Boluogo was a skilled master, using a welding gun to repair the metal in his hands, while Teda was a hard-working apprentice, wearing a protective mask and watching the master's operations.

Well, Boluogo has to admit that Palmer has a strange infectious charm. After working with him for a long time, your thinking will be like being corrupted by a weak mind, and sometimes you will suddenly come up with some boring jokes.

Boluogo can effectively control these, so at work, he is still the cold expert, treating all the jokes made by his partner as if he is talking to himself.

The eyepiece TEDA wears is not a protective mask to protect his eyesight, but a kind of alchemical equipment called the "ether flow eyepiece".

Ether is like air, overflowing in the world and everywhere. Correspondingly, they are like airflow, with its own flow trajectory. Driven by some condensers, ether will even set off invisible storms.

The ether flow eyepiece is an alchemical weapon for observing ether, making these nihilistic forces have color and substance.

In the eyes of some condensers who master the perception of ether, ether is vaguely visible, but the requirements for alchemists are too high. For this reason, most alchemists use ether flow eyepieces to observe ether. .

At this moment, in Teda's eyes, one can clearly see the blue track wrapping around Boluogo's body. Where the ether is thicker, the colors are more vivid and bright, even turning into dazzling daylight. Where the ether is thinner, The color will be dull, approaching gray and colorless.

After Boluoge learned about this thing, his first reaction was to wonder if this thing could be used in combat, but TEDA quickly gave up Boluogo's idea.

There is a certain delay in the observation of the ether flow eyepiece, and it will also interfere with the line of sight, so it is not suitable for use in combat, but this is not absolute. I heard from TEDA that some condensers of the origin school will use this in combat. equipment.

"I heard you say that, but it's really interesting when you see this... First the alchemical matrix extends to the material, and then the ether is injected into it, causing it to distort."

Teda took off the ether flow goggles, rubbed his sore eyes, and said to Boluogo.

"It reminds me of my days as an apprentice. There was something new waiting for me every day, and my curiosity was like a firework that couldn't be extinguished."

"Sounds pretty good." Boluoge said as he released the secret energy, and the glow from his body dimmed. "Have you discovered anything?"

"Well...Actually, this is the first time I have encountered a school of control like yours." Teda thought for a moment and said something of unknown meaning.

"What's the meaning?"

"The School of Control uses ether as a medium to give orders to matter, but you are different. You need to extend the alchemy matrix before giving orders," TEDA gave an example. "Do you remember your partner? He is also from the School of Control. Yes, but during the battle, you didn’t see the glow of the alchemical matrix spreading across the storm, right?”

"Of course, we can't say it so absolutely. The so-called schools are just classifications based on the characteristics of secret energy, so that we can understand them later.

The school has developed over the years, from the original six schools to the eight schools today. It is not impossible that there will be a few more wonderful exceptions. "

Teda pulled the chair over, sat down, turned his back to Boluogo, and started writing something like experimental records on the workbench.

"Are you saying that I am a special case of the Dominion School?"

Boluogo didn't feel anything about this. After learning about the mystery and weirdness of Overlord Xilin, he no longer thought that his alchemy matrix would be so simple.

"Probably... maybe you are not from the Dominion School." Teda said shocking words.

"What did you say? It's not the Dominion School." Boluogo was stunned.

"Didn't you hear what I said? Schools are just classifications of secret powers of different natures. Sometimes there are special cases like this, which conform to the classification of multiple schools. In uncertain circumstances, this kind of secret can If you can, you will be classified as a school of artifice."

Teda continued, continuing his thoughts.

"Of course, your current secret energy characteristics are mainly for the control school, but as you advance, this power will be revealed bit by bit, and then you will know its true nature."

Teda turned his head, looked at the somewhat surprised Boluogo, and said in a deep tone.

"Hopefully I'll have the chance to witness that day."
