Struggling to survive in the hands of the male protagonist who also wears books

It was still the familiar cold, and the air exhaled from his mouth would condense into ice mist in an instant.

Behind is the howling wind and snow all over the sky, and in front of me is a clear and cloudless night sky.The scenery was the same as before, but Philip's state of mind was completely different.

A few months ago, when the group of them came here, they worked hard and proceeded cautiously, and finally reached the Evernight Tundra after going through dangers; but now, on the back of the Thundering Lion, Fili hugged the unconscious Crete. In just a few days, he passed through the frozen forest and the Aurora Mountains, and came to the edge of the evernight tundra.

The scene of the last time they took an adventure together is still vivid, but now Crete is being corrupted, Arangelo's life and death are uncertain, Vera's rebellion, and Lacey's whereabouts are missing...

Fili looked at the desolate and lonely rocky ground on the evernight tundra, and smiled wryly in his heart.

The Thundering Lion sent Fili and Crete to the outskirts of the Evernight Tundra and refused to go in: "I can't enter the Evernight Tundra in my current posture. Back then, my mother fought a dragon here, and the dragon came Before I died, I cast a curse on this land, if I enter in the form of a lion, my body will not be able to bear it."

Fili didn't force it, just nodded, took out a small cart from the space ring, let Crete, who was still in a coma, lie flat on it, and then prepared to pull the cart to the interior of the Evernight Tundra .

The lion lay prone in the snow, and as soon as the wind and snow approached it, it was blocked by the electric light excited by its body.Its lion head was full of expressions, and with a little worry on its face at this time, it asked, "Are you sure that magic circle can solve Crete's erosion? Why didn't he think of it himself?"

"He doesn't know how to activate the magic circle." Fili waved his hand at the lion without looking back, "I won't harm him."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you here, come back as soon as possible!" The lion hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help shouting again, "Both of you must come back!"

"……it is good."

When running, the oncoming cold wind carried a sub-zero temperature, and was blocked by the cold repelling magic on Feili when he approached Feili.

After stepping into the evernight tundra, the sound of wind and snow in the Aurora Mountains was gradually left behind, and the surrounding gradually became quiet, only the sound of Philip's own running footsteps, the friction of the wheels pulling the cart against the rough rocky ground The voices are mixed, and it looks more and more lonely in the silent environment.

Fili even had the illusion that he was the only one left in the whole world.

——No, not only him, but also Crete who has been sleeping in the car behind him...

"Host, do you really want to do this?" The system suddenly said, with deep anxiety in his words, "I'm so worried..."

Fei Li smiled in his heart: "What are you worried about, isn't it that the soul barrier you guarantee can completely defend against the erosion of the blackened Phoenix bloodline?"

"That's right, but what if!" The system muttered unhappily, "Even if the soul barrier is fine, after 0378 wakes up, he will definitely find that I have exchanged Crete's points, and if he takes back the authority, I can't do anything other than be cute to the host!"

Feili couldn't help laughing: "Could it be that you have other uses besides being cute?"

"Of course—is there...?"

"It doesn't matter, even if 0378 withdraws the authority, we have not lost; now we are surrounded by enemies, and what the two of us can do is too limited. We must restore Crete and his system to a clear consciousness, otherwise nothing can be done."

"The host is not afraid that Crete will hold resentment towards you if he finds out that you are a foreign host and takes away his sub-holy strength?"

A look of bewilderment flashed in Fili's eyes.

He is not very afraid that Kriter will have resentment towards him - he has known Kriter for so long, if he can't see what kind of character Kriter is, then he won't stay by Kriter's side so wholeheartedly up.

He was at a loss as to whether Crete's feelings for him were for "Fili" or for himself hiding in the body of "Fili".

——If it is the former, can he still stay with Crete?

——If it is the latter, how should he face Crete?

This made him a little panicked: he was already used to being by Kriter's side, if Kriter didn't want him, where would he go?

"Host?"

Fili recovered from the doubts and urging of the system, concealed all the thoughts he had just flashed, and asked with a smile: "Why, are you not afraid of being discovered by 0378?"

The system froze, and he said in a low voice with puckered mouth: "If you find out, you will find out... At worst, you will be ridiculed by it... Anyway, I am used to it..."

Fili smiled, feeling warm in his heart.

The system was so afraid of being discovered by 0378 before, but now that it has made up its mind, it does not object, but expresses its support for itself with worry.

In any case, I still have the system.

The starry sky above his head remained unchanged, and the rocky ground under his feet remained unchanged. Fili pulled the car and ran on the cold tundra, chatting with the system in his heart, and even forgot the time.

It wasn't until the system reminded him that the magic circle was in front of him, and Feili suddenly realized that he had reached his destination.

The burn marks of magic, the fragments of the undead, and the traces of fighting the undead at the beginning are still clearly preserved. The Evernight Tundra is like a huge specimen warehouse, permanently retaining the traces left on it by everyone until the next day. The wave trace overwrites the previous wave trace.

Fili also saw the silver spear thrown by Crete in order to save himself from being attacked by the head of the lich in the process of fighting the undead dragon.

The gun was still firmly stuck in the cold and hard rock, and there were still a large area of ​​phoenix flames around it.It's just that the lich's head that was strung on the tip of the gun at that time has disappeared, and it is unknown whether it escaped or was taken away by the president of the Magicians Association who came here later.

Fili glanced at the gun, then dragged Crete to continue walking, and came to the open space where the magic circle where the Black Phoenix was born in the original book was.

After Crete took the mysterious red bead, the light of the magic circle dimmed; but Philip knew that the magic circle didn't disappear, and it only needed to inject a little magic power to activate it.

He carried the sleeping Crete out of the car and put it in the center of the magic circle, then stood aside, took a deep breath, and asked the system: "Have you finished exchanging the soul barrier?"

"The exchange is complete, and it can be activated at any time." There was a hint of confusion in the system's voice, "Has the host really thought it through?"

"Well, I've already thought about it."

Fili took a deep look at Crete, who was lying quietly on the ground—there was hardly any golden part left in his hair color, and the black part was approaching half of the range, which indicated that Crete Ritter was getting more and more eroded by the blackened phoenix bloodline.

According to the system, the host's soul has the ability to purify and heal itself, but if the soul is too polluted, there will be no cure.

The blackened blood on Crete must be removed as soon as possible.

Using the magic circle used by Black Phoenix in the original book to deprive Critter of all the Phoenix blood on himself is Philip's current plan.

Although in this way, Crete will lose his sub-holy level strength and the world's top phoenix bloodline, but at the same time, he will also get rid of the erosion of the blackened phoenix bloodline and be released from the shackles of the phoenix bloodline.

After all, for Crete, his biggest reliance is not the blood of the Phoenix, but a system beyond the level of cognition in this world.Fili believes that if Kriter is allowed to choose, Kriter will also choose to abandon the Phoenix bloodline!

On the contrary, I will replace Crete to bear the erosion of the blood of the blackened phoenix, and like Philip in the original book, I will be transformed into a black phoenix.

Of course, the difference is that I "borrowed" Crete's points to redeem the soul barrier in advance, which can prevent the erosion of the soul by the blackened phoenix bloodline. Unlike Crete, most of the power is used to resist erosion, almost I can't play my own strength.

Fili breathed out lightly, stood beside Critter, his mental power was connected to the magic circle, and he said in a soft but firm voice, "Come on."

The system was silent for a while, then activated the soul barrier with a sigh, and then passed the method of activating the magic circle described in the original book to Philip's mind.

Fili activated the magic circle according to the method provided by the system.On the flat rocky ground, the hidden magic circle patterns lit up one after another, and then under the guidance of Philip's spiritual power, red magic patterns flowed under Crete's body, like blood sucking Leeches generally got into Crete's body.

Afterwards, those magic patterns became much thicker, and the light emitted changed from pure red to half-black and half-red like Crete's hair, and these captured Phoenix blood was passed into the hands of the magic circle operator. Fili.

In an instant, Feili felt a cold and evil aura flow into his body, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, he shuddered.

"Is that how Crete persisted in this feeling for so long?" Fili was shivering from the cold.This feeling was as if he was facing a bunch of entangled colorful poisonous snakes through a glass, which made him feel terrified and nauseous, wishing to escape immediately.

——Oh no, Crete is a little bit worse than him, without the existence of the "glass" layer of the soul barrier...

"Is the host okay? Although the soul barrier doesn't seem to be a problem..." the system asked worriedly.

Fili gritted his teeth and said, "No problem!"

A few months ago, also here, on this rocky ground in the Evernight Tundra, Crete had saved him twice like a god.

Once saved him from an attack by a lich's head, allowing him to survive;

The other time was to save him from the confusion of the soul and let him re-establish the goal of life.

At that time, he began to look forward to his little sun in his heart, trying to get closer to Crete, trying to live the life he expected, and secretly swore in his heart——

He also wants to be a person who can share light and heat with others like Crete!

It may not be possible to have the temperature of the sun like Crete, but at least at this moment, when his little sun needs help, share your light with Crete!

As more and more blackened phoenix blood flowed out of Crete's body, the entangled black and red in Crete's hair color gradually faded, and the original bright pure gold was restored; the color of the skin was never normal His paleness returned to his original skin color; the faint black air that occasionally lingered around his body also gradually disappeared.

Philip watched with relief as Crete gradually returned to normal, and he no longer had any doubts about his choice.

And when Crete opened his eyes, what he saw was that familiar yet unfamiliar face.

It's the person he used to get along day and night, but his appearance has changed a lot.

Black hair, scarlet eyes, pale complexion...

Dark Phoenix.
