Humanoids on the way to upgrade [Comprehensive British and American]

"...I hate people disturbing me the most." Phoenix's tone was gloomy.

After she finished speaking, she fell into silence.

"My name is Gu Yi, and I am a mage who guards the earth from other dimensions." The bald-haired woman introduced herself.

Gu Yi didn't seem to have the intention of attacking directly, her tone was neither hasty nor slow, as if she was having a friendly conversation with Zoe.

"I know who your power comes from, and I also know what you want to do, but I have to remind you, whether it is recorded in ancient books or I have seen it with my own eyes, people who have been possessed by a phoenix throughout the ages have never had a good end," Gu said. One said flatly, "They either went mad or self-destructed, without exception."

Zoe stood still, this kaleidoscope-like different space put a lot of pressure on her, this was the opponent's domain, Zoe didn't dare to act rashly.

"If the Phoenix hosts go crazy, the destructive power they cause is enough to wipe out a galaxy, and destroying a group of people in the universe is a breeze. I don't want you to follow in their footsteps."

"I'm normal now, and I'm not controlled by the dark power of the Phoenix." Zoe said, "If what you mean by disrupting order is that I change the timeline, this is my own choice."

"The choice you made yourself?" Gu Yi looked at her with clear eyes.

"It's wrong, and I get it," Zoe whispered, "and I can't help but take chances—what's done can't be undone, but if it's all back to how it started, then it will be There is room for redemption.”

"Is this really the choice you made?" A ray of golden light flashed in Gu Yi's pupils, "Why do I see that your soul has been polluted?"

Zooey looked at her blankly.

"Have you ever done a deal with Phoenix?" Gu Yi asked, "Have you ever done a deal with her? To what extent do you trust her?"

"I once jumped the timeline once, with her help - if that counts as a transaction. Isn't the transaction equivalent? She didn't charge me for it," Zoe said.

She paused, compared to the previous time when she knew that Phoenix had suddenly awakened in her body, Zooey did relax her vigilance towards Phoenix, perhaps because she told Zooey about her life experience.

"Deceit - the most common method used by human beings," Gu Yi thoughtfully, "I don't know when you learned this method, Phoenix."

Gu Yi's slender fingers drew a golden-red magic circle in mid-air, and she made a gesture of pushing her palm forward, and the magic circle passed through Zoe's body with a bang.

A force that tore the soul forcibly took Zoe's soul out of the body.She opened her eyes and found herself floating in mid-air, while her body was lying on the ground.

Zooey lowered her head and saw that she was translucent in the soul state, but her entire right arm was dyed black.

Her fingers trembled, and she asked softly, "... Am I polluted?"

Fiery red energy overflowed from Zoe's fallen body, gradually converging in mid-air into the shape of a phoenix firebird.

"Whenever I'm about to succeed, someone will stop me... Whenever my hosts are about to go crazy, they always choose to self-destruct..." Phoenix said softly, "I don't quite understand why, people They all live for themselves, why can they abandon themselves without hesitation?"

Zoe asked, "What the hell is going on?"

"The phoenix lures you into the abyss with poison wrapped in honey. Fortunately, it's not too late." Gu Yi pulled Zoe's soul to his side, using golden mana to soothe her restlessness.

The woman with a solemn face like a monk said to Fenghuang, "You have learned the cunning of human beings, but you cannot learn the virtues of human beings."

"I still don't understand, I didn't make a mistake, but you are accusing me of hypocrisy-don't forget, you are actually as hypocritical as me in essence." The firebird transformed into a phoenix made a sharp cry, "I am not wrong, I Just wanting to fulfill what I've always wanted, and there's nothing wrong with this girl, she just wants to save her family! What's wrong with us?"

There was a piercing pain in Zoe's dark right arm, and she felt an emotion in her right arm—anger.The wrath of the phoenix.

"What did you do to me? Why did my soul become like this? What did you do to my soul!" Zoe's translucent spirit body was constantly fluctuating because of the pain.

"The more you use the power of the phoenix, the more she will pollute you. If you trust her, you are opening the door of your soul and letting her in." The Eye of Agamotto hanging on Gu Yi's chest released green The magic circle, the spell that formed the seal sank into Zoe's right arm, her pain disappeared immediately, and the emotions belonging to the phoenix also disappeared, but the black color of her right arm could not be eliminated.

"I think she has learned a lesson... She wants to achieve her goals more secretly." Gu Yi thought deeply.

The green magic circle of the Eye of Agamotto kept rotating, forming an elliptical shield around it, and the complicated patterns on it kept shining, and a mysterious power protected Gu Yi.

Phoenix's energy boiled violently, and then she burst into hysterical laughter.

Zoe shuddered, she had never heard such a crazy laugh from Phoenix, just like the terrorists Zoe saw on TV kidnapped a child, and he showed it when he held the child's head with a gun It showed madness and cruel emotions, with a thick black breath.And Phoenix's laughter reveals more disdain, just like humans look down on ants, and gods look down on humans from the clouds.

"A lesson?" Phoenix said with a smile, "I did learn a lesson."

"For example... I learned to do it step by step. I was always too eager before, always thinking of polluting my host with dark power at once, but I always underestimated their power, more than once. They resisted me and wanted to Get rid of me——When they find that they can't do it, they choose to self-destruct. Why would I underestimate their power? Why should I choose a powerful person to be my host? Because I am one of the core forces of the multiverse, I How can I just find those cats and dogs to use my precious energy? Every host of mine is the most powerful warrior in the universe, but the reason why life is mysterious is because it is impermanent. So even if I am already at the top, I Still failed."

"After my countless failures, I have learned my lesson. I am not in a hurry for success. I have plenty of time to wait slowly. I found that girl, lodged in her body, and slowly induced her to go to the abyss, but I Failed, a bald man in a wheelchair woven a spiritual cage and imprisoned me in it... Even so, I still didn't give up! I retreated and polluted half of the girl's soul, and finally got what I wanted—— The other half of her soul broke free from the cage and became my faithful puppet."

"She is..." Zooey guessed the answer.

"She is your poor and kind mother, little Zoe." Fenghuang's tone was gentle, but Zooey only felt creepy.

"Kindness, morality, devotion, sacrifice...you are the virtues that human beings admire so much, these insignificant things have become my obstacles time and time again." Phoenix's voice faintly reveals hysterical madness, "Everyone does it for themselves. And alive! But Qin, she chose to self-destruct after regaining consciousness! My plan was destroyed by her!"

"Why did you do this, why did you find so many innocent people? Why did you let them lose control and make them crazy?" Zoe spoke faster and faster, "What is your purpose!"

"Of course it is to find someone who is willing to do things for me. I need an obedient dog and a puppet who is loyal to my strength." Phoenix said slowly, "If you want to ask the purpose?"

"—I want to gather."

Gu Yi and Phoenix faced off at a distance of tens of meters. The power of the Phoenix relied on Zoe's body, and she never left the three-meter range of Zoe's body.

"Since ancient times, no one has been able to make the phoenix gather," Gu Yi said, "I have traveled the universe for hundreds of years, and I have heard many legends about the phoenix. A person controlled by the power of the phoenix lost control, and she swallowed An entire galaxy of stars, causing the demise of all cosmic races in that galaxy—I guess the reason why you devoured so much energy is to accumulate power across the multiverse to gather scattered Phoenix fragments."

Phoenix giggled and said, "You guessed it—but I'm not finished with my story. You seem to want to hear my story too, so let me continue."

"Jean self-destructed, she chose to go to the end, because she didn't want to hurt others, but due to the energy of the collective disappearance of the mutants on the earth, I was called back to the earth, and raised the bones of Jean from the grave. Good Jean wants again She wants to self-destruct, and she wants to release all my energy to make mutants reappear on the earth." Phoenix's voice was full of irony, and when she said the words "good zither", she bit her accent very hard.

"This child is so heartless. I spent energy to revive her, and she repays me like this. How can I make her wish come true? I can only let Qin 'sleep' again." Phoenix said in a soft tone, "...I destroyed the time axis and completely collapsed that universe—thanks to the energy brought to me by more than 1000 million mutants around the world, I have the strength to turn into a cocoon, hide in your body, and wait for the awakening That day."

"You resurrected my mother because you wanted to give yourself an obedient dog!" The unprecedented anger burned Zooey's nerves, and she almost lost her mind, "You hid in my body just to make me become a Become a dog!"

"Yes, I don't deny it. But I do love Qin and you very much. I put my feelings into you and hope that you can help me accomplish those things, but you let me down again and again." Phoenix sighed sadly, "I just want to Just to gather."

"Then what did you do to this innocent child?" Gu Yi asked flatly, "If you gather together, how many universes will collapse because of you? You are one of the supreme beings in the universe. Instead of protecting this universe, you lead it to destruction."

"No, no, I didn't do anything to this child, everything was her own choice, I just exerted a little spiritual influence on her, and made such a small invasion of her soul. "Phoenix said.

"What did you do to me?" Zoe asked.

"Did you feel that this period of time was particularly irritable and impulsive, wanting to kill people, and doing things completely reckless? Do you feel that you often sleep restlessly at night and are prone to nightmares? Do you not remember every time you have a dream? What happened?" Fenghuang said softly, "I said, I have learned a lesson. I will not pollute you roughly like I did to my previous hosts, and I will not only control half of her like I did to Qin. It is such a big hidden danger. I will only teach you, induce you, let you obediently walk the path I chose for you, and make you think that this is your own choice...I will let you accept my power willingly , Thank me from the bottom of my heart - I will make you loyal to me and help me reunite!"

Gu Yi's face darkened, "This crack in the universe—so you did it!"

"You guessed it right again, but it's useless. Do you know why I revealed my plan so easily? Is it because the famous Supreme Mage came so I couldn't hide it?" Phoenix asked calmly.

Zooey felt a cool air coming from the soles of her feet.

"Because you can only listen to me, little Zoe." She said softly, "You can only choose to help me get together."

"I'm like a magnet that will keep attracting people who also have the power of the phoenix. If there is a universe between the phoenix fragments and the phoenix fragments-then the two universes will attract each other. When I destroy the parallel universe where your mother is, I devour Losing the core means that the attraction between the phoenix fragments is stronger."

"You can only choose to help me, otherwise you can only watch the tragedy repeat itself - watch this universe die."

The ancient face was furious, and her golden robes were bulging.

"You can't attack me," Phoenix turned to the Supreme Mage and said, "If you attack me, I will destroy this girl's body, and then escape into someone else's body, or return to the universe to continue wandering, are you sure you can find me ?”

"I don't ask for much." She said with great patience, "I want to be together."

The author has something to say: In the last one, many readers said that the heroine is annoying, so let’s hate it. I can’t help it. After all, my plot is set like that, and there is no way to change it.

Almost everything that needs to be explained has been explained. There are some hidden lines that are not obvious. Let me tell you.

In Chapter 21, when Phoenix woke up, Zoe clearly asked Phoenix what price she would have to pay for reversing time, and Phoenix told her that there was no price, they were one, and she was her strength.In the following articles, Fenghuang told Zoe many times that they are one, the most beloved person in the world, and other nasty words.Zooey gradually relaxed her vigilance.

In Chapter 34, Zoe asked Phoenix "Why did the universe break?" Phoenix said that this is another long story and will not tell her for the time being, but in fact she is hiding the truth of a key part.Zooey asked several times and gave up, because Fenghuang had just told her about her mother, and Zooey had trust in Fenghuang.

I also mentioned the setting of Phoenix in this article in the author's words. In Chapter 21, I reminded everyone that Phoenix is ​​a lunatic, and Zoe will be influenced by her.That's because Phoenix has been secretly exerting spiritual hints on her brain, just as her positive energy has influenced Qin to produce her dark personality.

When Fenghuang just woke up, she persuaded Zoe to kill someone, but Zoe refused. Afterwards, Fenghuang said that a powerful person does not need to estimate any consequences. Zoe told her to shut up, but in fact she acquiesced.

The longer the phoenix wakes up, the greater the impact on Zooey. This is subtle, and Zooey doesn't even know that she has changed, thinking that it is her own choice.

Phoenix pretends to be Zoe's mentor, but she's actually the one with the worst intentions.
