Bone Sculptor

Milos followed Nadine to the place where the plant originally grew, but they rummaged around within a thousand meters, and they did not find a second plant.

Milos thought about it and decided to return to the camp first. The camp is currently unguarded. They cannot leave for too long. After the soldiers who have been cured wake up, they can plan the next move.

After returning to the camp, Milos found An Yi had disappeared for the first time. During this period of time, An Yi has been acting very obediently, causing Milos to gradually let go of her guard and regard her as her friend and help. She did not expect that she would choose to leave in the end.

He opened his personal terminal and tried to connect to the signal of An Yi's full-armored uniform. He was certain that An also would not throw away her uniform, because it was an indispensable disguise for her to contact human society.

Looking at the words "connection failed" displayed on the screen, Milos was not surprised, but felt a little lost in his heart.

"Major General Milos!" Nadine's surprised voice came not far away, "Come and take a look!"

Milos condensed his mind, strode over, and followed the direction of Nadine's fingers, and saw a few plants beside the camp, which were exactly the kind of vermillion they were looking for.

Milos's complexion was condensed, and the corners of his lips were slightly pursed. That guy, even if he left, he walked so hard that he couldn't hold his beak. He raised his head and looked into the distance, his eyes sparkling: It doesn't matter, they will see you again someday!

After leaving the camp, An Yi traveled leisurely in the forest alone. While looking for bone carving materials, he was familiar with the environment.

Skeleton Beast Wangwang and Sri are running around her, seeming to be very happy. Tutu was sent by her to send Zhu Guo to Milos. That kind of vermilion fruit grows on a single plant, and the number is scarce. If it weren't for the help of the skeleton beast, I might not be able to find one in two or three days.

The few strains she gave to Milos were treated as their "breakup fee", and neither owed nor owed them.

However, she seems to have overlooked something important? An Yi thought about it seriously, but couldn't remember it, so she had to give up.

She didn't know how much trouble she had neglected had caused human beings.

The gestation process of a good fungus is to have the mother first, and then spread to other people through the mother's breath. The infected people can be cured by only eating the juice of vermilion. But the mother is different. They are not affected by the fungus themselves, but they become a permanent source of transmission and can no longer recover. On the contrary, the cured group of people can be immune to the parasitism of good fungi from now on, and the mother will only spread the first-level good fungi. Only after more than two spreads, the good fungi will begin to evolve.

In the 36-member team led by Milos, apart from An Yi and Milos who possessed the bead body, the other 33 became immune bodies, and Nadine, the source of maternal transmission, was ignored by them.

"Major General Milos, where's Sergeant Andrasuka?" Omo didn't see An Yi again after waking up from a coma. She was saved by his fate, and she should be grateful anyway.

"I was sent to perform a special task." Milos replied without raising his eyes.

Was sent to perform a special task again? This is a jungle with complicated terrain. Can she come back alive after leaving the camp alone?

Omo cast a look at his chief as if he was looking at a saddler. The major general was so good to Andasuka before, and thought how much he cared, but it turned out to be just sugar-coated cannonballs?

Omo never questioned the chief's decision. Although he muttered in his heart, he didn't ask any more questions.

After this accident, everyone has become extra cautious, and they must be fully armed when going out to investigate. People in full armor uniforms can be seen everywhere in the camp. Milos was in a daze, as if seeing dozens of An Yi swaying in front of him.

Omo also sighed: "I finally know why Andasuka always wears a full armor uniform."

Milos: "..."

The subsequent inspection went smoothly, without encountering dangerous creatures such as black wolves and poisonous insects that An Yi specifically marked. The task was completed one month in advance, and the harvest was quite fruitful. So Milos returned to the base with the team.

An Yi sat on the tree, watching Luye shuttle carrying Milos and the others gradually go away, and said in his heart: Good luck.

She had already taken off the full-armor uniform at this time, and she was covered with white bones, and the flames were extinguished. It was clearly a species that represented death, but there was a sense of tranquility and security.

Suddenly, she turned over and got down from the tree, and followed Wangwang towards the depths of the dense forest.

Not long after, Wang Wang stopped beside a pile of skeletons, and An Yi also stopped.

She didn't waste time, knelt down and began to refine the creature that had just been attacked by the green demon. With her current ability, small animals can be transformed into skeletons, but large beasts can only be partially refined to extract a few pieces of spiritual bone material.

In the hollow eye sockets, two clusters of light blue flames suddenly lit up, and an animal skeleton resembling a lizard stood up from the ground. It raised its head and looked around, then swished into the lake next to it.

An also has a panoramic view of the underwater scenery through its spiritual fire eye. In the azure blue lake, countless colorful little fish shuttle freely among the lush water plants. Layers of reefs are stacked and criss-crossed, like a chessboard, quietly distributed in the bottom of the water. Various creatures of weird shapes roamed and moved in it, turning the calm lake water into waves from time to time.

"F"-The fourth skeleton creature refined by An Yi, originally a water lizard, amphibious.

F obviously didn't have the consciousness of being a skeleton. It quickly rushed towards a fish, bit it, swallowed it into its stomach, and then the fish got out of the gap in its bones.

F glanced at the fish in confusion, and swallowed it again unwillingly. Of course, the result was the same. The little fish happily swam around in its skeleton. F whirled violently, swallowing what he saw, and leaking what he swallowed.

If it can't catch food, it will starve to death!

No, you don't have to worry about starving to death in the future. An Yi chuckled and comforted it seriously.

F will be suspicious, swim aimlessly in the water for a while, and find that he really has no appetite at all. F is melancholy, can't eat, what fun is there in life!

An Yi is speechless, you are a skeleton water lizard, do you want to be so sentimental?

When I was in F, I suddenly saw a few lights flashing in the water plants. It hurriedly swam over, poked its head into the water plants, and saw dozens of shining gems, large and small, scattered in it. The gems were of different shapes, crystal clear, and very beautiful.

The spiritual fire in F's eye sockets became unusually shining under the reflection of the gems.

It suddenly felt that it had pursued again in its life!

An Yi withdrew her consciousness, worried that if she continued to sense, she would become the same as F. Thinking about it carefully, F seems to have a more independent thinking mode and self-awareness than the other three skeleton beasts. Does this mean that her abilities have been improved and can refine higher-level skeleton creatures?

An Yi still couldn't figure it out for the time being. When the Skeleton Race grows up, many things will naturally become clear.

Skeleton lives day and night, and An Yi wanders in the mountains and forests every day, following the trail of the green demon, collecting spiritual bones and refining the skeleton.

It's a pity that the skeleton bones that have just been transformed by the green demon are not easy to find, but she has collected a lot of spirit bones.

An Yi sculpted spiritual bones into objects according to the original forms of these creatures, and found satisfaction and joy in the carving. Only at this time would she feel that she was alive.

After becoming a skeleton, many feelings disappeared, including the longing for family members, gradually blurred.

She doesn't want to forget the past, but the memory of the skeleton seems to be slowly replacing her past.

On this day, An Yi made a decision. She will write down all the things she has not forgotten with words and pictures, and make them all into bone sculptures.

This is a huge project, but she has enough time to complete it. One of the most important is text, which is the foundation of all knowledge; the second is graphics, which is the multi-dimensional cognition of various things by humans and another form of language expression.

Popper divided human knowledge into seven categories, one for common sense, two for experience, three for myths and legends, four for science, five for philosophy, six for art, and seven for religion. Of course, it is impossible for An Yi to understand so much, but she can assign all the words with corresponding meanings according to this classification method. For example, "fly", if it is included in the category of "experience", it can be integrated into the principles of bird flight she has learned.

Of course, if she doesn't know enough about a certain kind of knowledge, then she may not be able to give the words any meaning. Everything must be built on the knowledge she has accumulated over the past two decades, which is also the best way for her to deepen her memory.

With the goal, Anyi's carving forms became more and more abundant. Except for carving the creatures of this planet, other spiritual bones were used by her to carve characters and patterns that she was familiar with.

The text starts with the simplest, and the zodiac sign is the first choice for the pattern.

She has carved the Chinese zodiac many times, and the shape has not been repeated. Logically speaking, it should be handy, but the result was unexpected. She included the zodiac signs in common sense. Among them, the sculptures of rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig went well, but the dragon failed. So she included the dragon in the myth and gave it a higher meaning, but she still failed. Perhaps it should not be said that it was a failure, but lack of spiritual power, and could not finish carving at all.

After that, she included the dragon in the art again, and this time it was completed, but without any special power, it was just a very beautiful work of art.

Through these several experiments, An Yi gradually figured out some doorways. Things that exist in reality, as long as she knows them, they can basically be carved out according to common sense. If it is a legendary thing, it can only be carved into a work of art. Even if it is made of spiritual bones, it does not have any special power.

However, An Yi faintly felt that once these legends are successfully endowed with the meaning of "legendary", then they are likely to possess unimaginable powerful power...
