Disaster Is Coming: Sequence Detective

Soul-guiding lantern?

Xu Nian looked at his wife in surprise and asked, "How do you know the name of this thing?"

"It told me."

His wife looked at the lantern in her hand with a strange tone, and then handed it to Xu Nian: "And it wants to talk to you."

"Me?"

Xu Nian took it subconsciously, and just as he was about to reply, he heard a baby-sounding little girl's voice in his mind: "Dad, Dad, is that you?"

Xu Nian's mind was blank, and he stammered for a long time: "Who are you? Why do you call me dad?"

He was completely confused.

He knew he had a son, but he didn't have a daughter. Why did this little girl call him dad? Wait, daughter?

Xu Nian seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help but take a breath, and said in horror: "Are you Siyu?"

"Siyu? Who is that? Such a familiar name, it's really strange, why don't I have any impression of it? Is this the name my father gave me before? Great, I have a name, I have a name!"

The little girl in his mind first talked to herself in confusion, and then shouted excitedly.

Xu Nian opened his mouth in shock, not knowing what was going on.

He could tell that this little girl was most likely Song Fangqin's daughter Song Siyu, but Song Siyu was swallowed by him along with the cockroach, so how could she appear in this lantern. Oh, no, the soul-guiding lantern?

With this thought, he couldn't help but ask, "What is a soul-guiding lantern?"

"Dad, a soul-guiding lantern is a soul-guiding lantern."

Song Siyu's voice was full of confusion, as if she was wondering why her father asked such a strange question.

Xu Nian wanted to say that I am not your father, but he swallowed the words back and said, "Okay, then what is the use of this soul-guiding lantern? Do you know this?"

"I know this."

Song Siyu laughed and said, "Dad, it was the lantern that told me that it was once an epic artifact, and its former owner was also a great old god, but with the outbreak of a huge war, the old order collapsed, its owner fell, and it fell into a deep sleep until a ruler named Cthulhu got it, and it was forced to be controlled by the other party. Use, and then there was another war. Its second master Cthulhu was sealed, and it fell into a deep sleep again. It just woke up just now, but its power was almost gone. "

"As for what it is used for, Deng Deng said that it can only gather spirits, devour spirits, replenish spirits, and gather spirits. The other things can only be used after it devours more power and recovers. "

"Oh, by the way, it also told me that it felt the breath of its former master Cthulhu in you, Dad, so its awakening this time should be related to you. "

Xu Nian opened his mouth in shock, and a huge wave of waves rose in his mind.

He thought that the lantern, oh no, it should be called the soul-guiding lantern, might not be simple, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

He didn't know what the Old Gods were, and he didn't know what the Old Ones were, but he knew the six words "epic artifact"!

Epic, artifact, such words, even elementary school students know what it means.

For a moment, his eyes looking at the soul-guiding lamp were not right, and the resentment in his heart because the coffin brother stole the Samurai Knight set also disappeared for the most part.

"Dad, Dad, is that mom next to you? And is that brother in the hilt?"

At this time, Song Siyu's baby voice sounded again.

Xu Nian was shocked, and looked at his wife with a frown beside him in disbelief, and said: "Can you see Qiaoqiao and Wu'er?"

"I can see them, but Deng Deng said that their current situation is very dangerous. Although the three of you have relied on obsession to keep your souls from dissipating, this is only temporary. As time goes by, they will eventually disappear."

"What?" Xu Nian was shocked.

"Dad, this is true. Deng Deng said that it has the ability to gather souls. If you agree, you can let them live in Deng Deng's body like me."

"Like you?"

Xu Nian keenly caught the key point in Song Siyu's words. "Yes!"

As the words fell, the flame of the soul-guiding lamp flashed, and an illusory, several-month-old baby girl appeared in front of Xu Nian.

This familiar, cute face gradually overlapped with the little baby girl on the swing in Song Fangqin's villa room.

"Siyu, it's really you!"

Xu Nian took a breath, and a deep horror flashed in his eyes.

Song Siyu floated around Xu Nian barefoot, and then happily flew into his wife's arms, and said coquettishly: "Mom, are you mom?"

A trace of surprise flashed in his wife's eyes, but then she seemed to have thought of it, gently pinched Song Siyu's little nose, and smiled: "Siyu, of course I am a mom."

"Great, I knew you were a mom."

Song Siyu immediately rolled happily in his wife's arms.

Xu Nian looked at this scene with complicated eyes, and then looked at the body pieces on the ground, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Although Song Fangqin was probably killed by Yu Man a long time ago, what he chopped up just now still belonged to Song Fangqin's body.

"Mom, mom, you and brother live in Deng Deng's body. With it, our souls will not dissipate, and we can have our own power." At this time, Song Siyu stretched out her white and tender little hand and made a cute fist-shaking gesture.

The wife smiled slightly, glanced at Xu Nian, and then said softly: "Okay, but I have to ask your father what he means?"

Xu Nian was startled, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Siyu, is the lamp you are talking about a soul-inducing lamp?"

"yes!"

"Is it intelligent?"

"Well, Dengdeng said that its form of existence cannot be described in words. He said that when dad gets stronger, he will naturally understand."

"." Xu Nian was silent for a while and said in a deep voice: "Then help me ask why it wants to help me?"

Song Siyu blinked and said seriously: "Dengdeng said that although it is an epic artifact, it must have an owner to exert its abilities. Moreover, it needs to restore its strength now, so it must swallow a large number of souls."

Xu Nian understood the meaning of the soul-inducing lamp and said, "So, it wants to recognize me as its master and let me help it regain its strength?"

"Well, that's right, but Dengdeng said that it doesn't actually want to recognize you as its master, because you have the aura of its former master, Cthulhu, and it hates Cthulhu, so..."

Xu Nian frowned.

Seeing this, Song Siyu suddenly said with a proud smile: "Hehe, dad, Siyu is teasing you! Dad, don't worry, Siyu has said a lot of good things to Deng Deng, and Deng Deng promises to recognize you as his master."

"That's it!"

Xu Nian nodded thoughtfully: "Then what should I do to make it recognize its master?"

"Dad, you don't have to do anything." Song Siyu said with a smile: "In fact, after Deng Deng woke up, he found that he recognized you as his master. He just felt a little awkward."

Xu Nian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and muttered: "It turns out that I have recognized my master a long time ago. No wonder it swallowed the soul when it was still a lantern. My spiritual power will increase."

"Yes, Dad, Dengdeng also said that if you help it devour souls, you will also increase it, although it won't be too much."
