I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones
Page 493
"You can call me Taoist Heming."
A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"You are Taoist Heming?"
Stone frowned slightly. He took out his revolver and aimed it at Byron, not believing his nonsense.
"Yes, I am Taoist Heming, or I used to be Taoist Heming."
Byron put his hands on the table, very relaxed, as if he was not facing Stone's muzzle, but his disciple who was studying.
"I experienced a lot in the abandoned capital, and finally discovered one thing, that is, the human body can never resist pollution, so I chose to abandon my body and merge with the family of the old ruler, You must know the creature well."
"Are you Byron, Taoist Heming, or a mud monster?"
Stone knew that these silt monsters would imitate the appearance and will of the creatures they devoured in most cases. Except for a few cases, the will of those devoured guys would be obliterated, and they could control the silt in turn. Monsters, few and far between.
Just like Io and Liz at the time, Stone knew very well that it was impossible for her to reproduce a miracle that she could maintain a certain level of consciousness.
"These are all me."
Byron laughed.
"I abandoned the body of Taoist Heming and merged with the family of the old ruler. Immediately, I took control of this monster and transformed into a new existence. However, some existences are not willing to witness all this."
"Some existence?"
Stone did not put down his gun, but still asked vigilantly.
"The old ruler who walks the land, the real ruler of the abandoned city, you may have heard that that lady is not a gentle and kind existence, she created a little trouble for me on the day I fully integrated .”
said Byron, spreading his hands as if helpless.
"A part of my consciousness was split and remained in this Rainstorm Villa. Although I tried to use some rituals to completely sublimate and transform myself, the incomplete soul was still unable to integrate, and I would never be able to go further. "
"So, I can only linger on in my current form. Fortunately, this body is strong enough to have a lifespan far exceeding that of a human being, and it can devour other human beings to become their appearance, mingling in the abandoned city, avoiding that lady investigation."
"That's why you came back here and wanted to hold a soul-calling night?"
Stone asked in a deep voice.
According to Byron, he did enter here very early. Before that, Browning purchased many paintings of the ancient capital to suppress a certain existence. This may be the wisp of will that Taoist Heming left in Stormy Rain Villa. Under the influence, Browning resisted.
However, Browning died in the end. Gao De, one of the incarnations of Taoist Heming, was slaughtered by Taoist Heming's will in Stormy Rain Villa, and Byron, the last pawn, woke up.
"It can dominate human will, create all kinds of illusions, and even control your body through subtle pollution. You should have experienced that feeling, right?"
Gu Yi
Byron looked at Stone with a half-smile, and he seemed fearless in the face of the black muzzle of the gun.
"Now, that will may have occupied someone's body and is looking for my trace. Hehe, he tried to replace me and become the real Taoist Heming, but he didn't know that this was all arranged by that lady. Having obtained the initiative, you and your companions will die here on the evocation night, and even your soul will be absorbed and become nourishment."
"Why did you tell me this?"
Stone understood that no matter whether the person in front of him was the real Taoist Heming or not, he must have a purpose in saying these words to himself.
In connection with what he mentioned that he was unable to sublimate due to the incompleteness of his soul, then Byron's purpose is obviously to let Stone and the others get rid of their lost will.
"It's very simple, as long as you remove all those paintings and break the shackles that Browning imposed here, then that childish will will lose its support, and my strength will increase. At that time, I don't need your help. It can also be absorbed back and start the real road of sublimation."
Byron spread his hands and said, as if to say that this is quite simple, like laying hands.
"It's not a bad thing for you that I became the Old One. You have helped me. At least, I can help you reshape some of the things you cherish."
"you mean"
Stone quickly understood what Byron meant.
Since he is in that state now, he naturally knows about Liz and Io, and what the smell left on Stone's body represents.
"Do you know that in the body of this creature, the souls of all the deceased will never die, they will only merge into one, intertwined in the eternal and silent years."
Byron laughed.
"In other words, if I find the wreckage from that time, with just a little processing, they will stand in front of you intact, with your familiar memory and personality, and even their souls will be as if they were fake."
His voice whispered in Stone's ear, like the whisper of the devil tempting mankind to fall.
"If you can help me achieve these, I can complete this transaction. Isn't that what you expect?"
Stone fell silent.
He is thinking about two things.
The first is whether the person in front of him can believe it. Of course, Taoist Heming, this guy Stone thinks it is very dangerous, but right now, at least Byron has no malice towards him, and he may indeed have come here earlier than Browning. And the ghosts lodged in the Rainstorm Villa have indeed caused harm to the people living here.
The second is, can he really allow the dead to be resurrected?
Is it Stone's own arrogance to wake up those souls that have been silent?
He hesitated.
After a long time, after taking a deep look at Byron, Stone slowly put down the revolver.
"Tell me, what do I need to do to fulfill your request?"
Stone's expression remained unchanged, still grim.
The storm outside the window became more violent, and the wind whipped the windows, making a weeping whimper.
Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
===642. I have something to tell you===
"You said Gothe's internal organs disappeared?"
Browning seemed to be thinking, he asked a question, but did not wait for Lu Jian and Shia's answer, he murmured to himself.
"My remains have the characteristics of a silt monster. He can absorb other people's souls and mimic them. After being attacked by me, he differentiated his internal organs and became someone else?"
"But you must have seen everyone in Rainstorm Villa. No matter who he wants to become, he will be noticed, unless he becomes someone who does not belong here."
Browning looked at Lu Yi and Shia.
"Did you also meet someone who wasn't here in the first place?"
The thunder exploded at this time, and it seemed that another tree was struck by lightning in the distance, bursting into raging flames, shining brightly in the dark night, reflecting the deep purple thunder and lightning, as if the end of the world.
"Yes, his name is Byron. He is a charlatan. He got a few pages of your treatise and obtained extraordinary abilities. He was invited by Gao De to come here, but he was locked in a wine barrel in the underground wine cellar."
Shia briefly explained what happened to them.
"Byron is now with our companions in safe custody."
Hearing this, the expression on Browning's face became serious and dark.
"broken."
Browning sighed, and then said.
"This Byron is probably imitated by my remains. Gothe and him are different manifestations of the soul. After being killed by me, he hid himself as Byron, ready to wait for an opportunity. Now, your companions It is estimated that he has already had contact with him, and he is likely to confuse your companions, deceive him with sweet words, try to find my existence, and complete the soul-calling ceremony."
Hearing Browning's words, Shia raised her eyebrows.
So far, there is nothing wrong with Browning's words, basically the logic is smooth. The night of the soul is indeed carried out by Gothe and Byron, and they do have many doubts. Since the task is to survive the night of the soul, they are unstable. Elemental Byron does need serious handling.
However, who can guarantee that Taoist Heming in front of him will not hurt himself?
Of course, there is no end to infinite suspicion. It will only be timid, and you will never be able to move forward.
"Then what do you want us to do?"
Lu Jian asked directly.
Now they can only help Taoist Heming. It really won't work. After solving his problem, they can also solve Taoist Heming.
Since he said that there was a problem with his sublimation, Lu Jian felt that if he was given a song sung by a great being, maybe he would be more honest.
"It's very simple, you just find Byron, use this thing to petrify him, and then bring him to me."
Browning's fingers flicked across the air, and the trajectory of the fingertips formed a trail of meteors, and a character appeared in the air. Then, with a wave of Browning's hand, the thing floated towards Lu Yi and Shia.
The words stayed in front of the two of them, and Shia quickly discovered how to use them.
"Is this knowledge?"
Shia looked at Browning.
"Correct."
Browning nodded slightly. This is concrete knowledge. As long as it is touched, it will flow into the brain. Naturally, pollution will follow one after another. This is the price.
"If I want to harm you, your body and consciousness will be dominated the moment you see me, and there is no need to do it at this time."
He added that he had no malice.
"I go first."
With the thought that he is not afraid of these things anyway, at worst it will melt, Lu Jian reached out to touch the tracer text floating in mid-air.
The moment his finger came into contact with the text, Lu Trian felt a trickle of water flow into his brain.
The numbness of the scalp lasted for a while, and Lu Jian immediately felt that knowledge emerged in his mind.
Gu Hiroshi
It was a simple ritual, but it could cause huge trauma to the silt monster. As long as the ritual was successful, the silt monster hit would become a glass flower as hard as cement, allowing others to move it.
Those silt monsters did not die, more like they were sealed.
"Taoist Heming can master such spells, and there is reason to believe that he can indeed control the mud monster."
Shia whispered in Lu Ban's ear.
"really."
When Lu Jian nodded, Xi Ya also touched the words at the same time. After bearing these, she obviously felt more pain, the expression on her face was slightly distorted. The girl mage closed her eyes, then opened them, as if she was pondering over the sealing spell essence.
"This spell is very simple, it just needs to touch the other party, but in turn, if Byron is aware of this, he may turn to attack us first."
Shia said quickly.
They had already seen those evolved silt monsters in the waste capital ten years ago, just looking at them could make people's internal organs explode and turn them into glass flowers.
