Super Dimensional Wizard
Chapter 2764 The Secret of Possession
Probably only the Black Earl can give the answers to these doubts. But this must involve the secrets of the Noah family, and it’s hard for Angel to ask...
"What on earth is going on? Didn't you say you were about to die? Why are you married to Lord Black Earl now?"
While Angel was thinking about the etiquette that should be observed at this moment, Doakes on the side spoke directly, regardless of the occasion and the atmosphere, and asked all the doubts in his heart.
"Also, who are you now? Are you... yourself, or Lord Black Earl?"
Doakes stared into Vai's eyes.
Vai originally wanted to continue to sarcastically say a few words, or to cheer up as before, but seeing the suppressed complex emotions in Doakes's eyes, he choked back the words that came to his throat.
"Of course I am still me. I thought I was going to die just now, but didn't you see that the adults saved me." Vai shrugged, with an expression of 'who could have expected that things would turn out like this'.
Doakes: "You just said that you would become a puppet? Become like Ella? What's going on?"
Vai's eyes wandered: "You said that... it was just a misunderstanding."
Doakes had asked questions continuously before because he was in an emotional state. Now he has calmed down a little, and he can see that Vai's answer was very perfunctory. He didn't want to mention what happened before.
Doakes was silent for a moment: "There are no benefits that come out of thin air in this world. Everything has a price. So, what price did you pay?"
Doakes did not continue to dwell on the previous topic, but directly asked the core question.
Vai's words when he was "near-death" were sincere and sincere, and they were definitely not staged. From those words, we can know that Vai will definitely have to pay a price, and before that, Vai believed that this price was enough to make him completely destroyed.
Although it seems that Vai has not changed much now, how long will this state last? Will he still become the "puppet" he calls it? Does he still have... a future?
This is Doakes' biggest concern.
What if Vai only gets temporary integrity, and when they are separated, or in other words, one or two years later, he becomes a puppet?
Vai looked at Doakes' solemn expression and suddenly didn't know what to say. He really wanted to lie like he did in the past, but Vai knew that Doakes could tell whether what he said was a lie. In the past, not exposing it was just a kind of tacit understanding and tolerance.
Doakes took it seriously, but he lied. Wasn't it too inappropriate?
But if he was asked to tell the truth, Vai actually didn't know where to start. Although his parents had communicated with him about some situations before, he was still confused. He only knew that his past thoughts might be a bit too naive. The Black Earl used his clone to follow his descendants. He indeed wanted something, but he would never let them die.
Moreover, he did not dare to say it without his own master's permission.
Vai could neither talk nonsense nor tell the truth, so he could only remain silent.
Doakes knew Vai very well. Looking at Vai's awkward expression, he knew the struggle in his heart. Doakes sighed softly: "I have many friends in the Southern Territory, but very few of them are willing to pursue the truth. I still remember that when I was a wandering apprentice and first heard the meaning of truth, I felt so moved. The yearning and passion surged in my heart, and the one who told me about it at that time was you."
"The path of a wizard, the pursuit of truth, is endless. Even though you have wasted many years, I still think that only you will make the same choice as me."
"You have your own concerns, I understand, and I won't ask again."
"But I will not stop on the road of pursuing the truth, and I hope you will always be here."
Doakes's words are a confession after analyzing his heart, and also a revelation of his true feelings. Why does he care about Vai's future? Because the path of pursuing truth is destined to be lonely. It would be a blessing to have a close friend to accompany him, even for a short distance.
And now they are not even qualified to embark on the path of truth. At this time, if any of them fall behind, it will be a great regret.
Vai probably didn't expect that Doakes would say these words in such a solemn tone at this time.
Vai has always felt that his requirements are actually very low, and he belongs to a rare group of people with low desires in the wizarding world.
He also believes that no one will have any expectations of himself, let alone high standards.
With such a peaceful thought, Vai spends his days in boredom. But he thinks, is it really the truth? What is his real inner thoughts?
During that period of dawdling, Vai occasionally went to the highest point in Mesoemia, where he looked at the distance from the top of the mountain known as the "Eternal Mountain".
Why he went there and what he was thinking about, Vai no longer remembers, or in other words, he deliberately forgot about it.
But at this moment, hearing Doakes' words, he seemed to vaguely see those forgotten memories.
When he is at the top of the Mount of Eternity, he will not think about fortune telling shops or gossip magazines. He will think about himself.
What I am thinking about is my true self, my id, and the superego that only exists in my imagination.
He also thought about the future, but...
While Vai was immersed in himself, a cold snort came from his ears.
"Your words are decades late." The voice came from Vai, but it was not said by Vai.
With such a tone, there is only one person...Black Earl!
After the Black Earl said these words, he flew out of Vai's face and stuck to the previous stone slab again.
There is a dark hole on Vai's nose.
The Black Earl slowly floated in the air, his nostrils pointed at Doakes: "If you had said this a few decades earlier, he might have become an official wizard. But fortunately, it is not too late now. "
The Black Earl scolded Doakes for a few words, then turned to look at Vai.
"Although I don't think that this kid Doakes has the ability to embark on the path of truth, but what he said is quite right. You have a chance to embark on the path of pursuing the truth."
"Are you still planning to waste time like this?"
Vai didn't answer, but his eyes were brighter than before.
What he thought he thought before was actually wrong. Doakes still had expectations for him, but he kept silent and waited silently; Earl Black also had expectations for him, otherwise Earl Black would have left long ago and would not have wasted many years with him.
The feeling of being expected is actually a kind of responsibility and burden. Although it is a bit troublesome, Vai now has the courage and is willing to bear such trouble.
Although Vai didn't speak, his expression said everything. The Black Earl sneered slightly, which was regarded as his approval of Vai.
After confirming Vai's wishes, the Black Earl continued: "Tell him, although this is the secret of the Noah family, those who know will eventually know."
"...It's like someone, if I don't tell him, he will still know if he goes back to ask his mentor or my old friend."
No need for the Black Earl to name him, everyone knew that this "someone" must be referring to Angel.
Angel does have such an idea...but! After all, he hasn't implemented it yet. Isn't it a bit too much to scold him in advance? !
Angel was complaining in his heart, but his face was calm and composed, as if he didn't understand the Black Earl's words at all, as if he had nothing to do with it.
The Black Earl agreed with Vai's story, and Vai breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to hide his best friend.
However, after a long time, Vai did not speak.
When everyone looked at Vai in confusion, Vai said to the Black Count at a loss: "Sir, I, I actually didn't understand much just now."
Everyone: "..."
The Black Earl had already planned to finish Vai's story and then make another round of taunts, but now he was no longer in the mood.
With a cold snort, the Black Earl took over Vai's words and explained himself.
…
With the Black Earl's narration, everyone finally understood what happened before.
Vai was able to resist the death of Guao's Eyes, but he actually paid a considerable price... that is, he "sacrificed" his talent, the smell of death.
I say "sacrifice" just to make it easier to understand. In fact, it was Vai who withstood the blow of Gu'ao's Eye in exchange for the smell of death inherited from Noah's bloodline.
After making this decision, Vai had actually already thought about the next path.
Either be content with being ordinary, or be like Sister Ella and be possessed by Lord Black Earl's clone and become a puppet.
However, what Vai didn't expect was that he didn't even have the right to choose. Because the death light of Gu'ao's Eyes was too terrifying, even if he sacrificed his talent, he still could not completely resist the death light, and could only barely save a life.
When he stepped down in a dying state and the healing spells had no effect on him, Vai's choice became: die or be possessed by the Black Count.
Between the two, Vai chose to be possessed by the Black Earl. Even if he becomes a "puppet" like a living dead, it is better than disappearing completely.
As for why Vai didn't become a "puppet" in the end? This starts with a "conspiracy theory".
Many people have always been puzzled as to why the Black Earl placed his clone next to the descendants of Noah. There were two speculations at the beginning. One side thought that the Black Earl was trying to protect his descendants, and the other thought that the Black Earl had other motives.
Judging from the behavior of the Black Earl, his clones have protected his descendants many times. Therefore, the descendants of Noah all prefer the former.
When did the wind direction change?
When several descendants of Noah died after venturing into the ruins, and the Black Earl's clones manipulated their corpses to return to the family, rumors began to spread.
The Black Earl's clone did recommend that the descendants go explore and adventure in various ruins, but the Black Earl wanted the descendants to grow up, but it was rumored that he was... uneasy and kind-hearted.
Since then, many descendants of Noah have begun to be wary of the Black Earl's clone, and the "otaku" style has begun to prevail among the descendants of Noah.
But among the descendants of Noah, there are actually people who truly love exploring the unknown. Although they are wary of the Black Earl, this does not stop them from dreaming of distant places.
Among them is Vai's biological sister, Ella.
The former Vai was also influenced by his sister Ella and loved exploring unknown places. This is how he got in touch with Doakes and became lifelong friends.
But one day, Ella returned to the family. When Vai saw her, he found that Ella was dumbfounded and could no longer speak. Like a puppet, controlled by the Black Earl...
Only then did Vai realize that his peers were right to be wary of the Black Earl.
So, from that day on, Vai also suppressed the real desires in his heart and began to "stay at home".
Decades passed by in a blink of an eye, and we arrived today.
During this period, Vai also tentatively asked the Black Count, and the answer given by the Black Count was as others had guessed: possession.
The Black Earl told about the situation of sacrificing talent and then possessing the clone... Ella took this step.
The Black Earl only said the reason, but not the conclusion.
This made Vai misunderstand that once possessed, he would no longer be him. His consciousness will die and he will become a living dead puppet with only his physical body left.
Only then did Vai say his "last words" loudly with tears in his eyes.
The above is all what the Black Earl said.
Many things were briefly mentioned, including why the talent inherited by blood can be sacrificed, and why the tone of the Black Earl encouraged sacrifice?
This may involve the secrets of the Noah family, and the Black Earl deliberately avoided these details. But this is not too critical, because whether to sacrifice the talent or not is ultimately not the decision made by the Black Earl, but the choice of the descendants of Noah.
The Black Earl is more like a witness and a bystander.
"Why didn't Vai die in the end? Nor did he become a puppet of the living dead?" The Black Earl did not explain these two questions in the end. He just said that everything was "rumors", which made Doakes couldn't help but ask again. .
Black Earl: "He will not die in the first place. The possession of my clone will only allow him to regain his past talents. It will not let him die, let alone turn him into a puppet of the living dead."
At this time, Vai also explained: "Your Majesty is right, I misunderstood you before."
Doakes: "Then your sister Ella..."
Vai waved his hand weakly: "Sister Ella is actually not dead."
not dead? Then what were you doing crying and yelling just now?
Doakes still couldn't believe it when he saw Vai's 360-degree change in attitude. Unless he knew Vai very well and confirmed that the person in front of him was not played by someone else but Vai, otherwise he would really suspect that everything was acted by the Black Earl.
"I don't know the specific situation yet, but your Excellency has clearly told me that Sister Ella is not dead." Vai explained again that he believed what the Black Earl said. At least in this matter, the Black Earl had no reason to deceive himself.
The Black Earl also spoke at the right time: "His sister Ella, followed by my tongue. Ever since my tongue possessed her, Ella rarely speaks, probably due to psychological awkwardness, and has never come out of the shadows."
Vai also proved what the Black Earl said at this time. The Black Earl's clone following Ella was Tongue.
Everyone imagined for a moment that if their own tongues were sacrificed and replaced by someone else's tongue, they would still be unable to control their tongues. It would be quite disgusting to think about it.
What's more, if Ella, a witch, wears the tongue of the opposite sex, she will most likely have psychological shadow.
However, they were all wrong.
What the Black Earl didn't tell them was that the ability of the tongue was actually related to "speaking".
It can be understood that saying good things will not work, but saying bad things will be accurate.
Not every character of the Black Earl's clone is as stable as the nose, but more like the original character. The character of Tongue is an exception. He is a bit out of touch, and he is particularly mean-mouthed. He always likes to say things that make people unlucky.
In the past, when Ella had her own talents, she would not say "bad things" on purpose, so it was normal.
But Ella sacrificed her talent and was possessed by the Black Earl's tongue. Even though the talent came back bit by bit, the tongue's bad mouth condition did not change.
In order to avoid hurting the people around her with her bad tongue, Ella simply lived alone and remained silent even when she returned to the family. Even when Vai came to see her, she refrained from speaking.
This is actually to protect Vai.
But Vai misunderstood, and Ella became a puppet living dead.
It can be said that there are layers of misunderstandings here.
The Black Earl was actually aware of this, but he did not interfere or explain anything.
The possession of the Black Earl is not for nothing, what he wants is his own detachment. As for the specific operation, this is a secret, and the Black Earl will not tell anyone about it.
But what can be said is that he wants these descendants, but he will not really kill them. Even if the Black Earl really transcends and becomes a legend, he will not do much harm to these descendants, let alone trap and kill them. Even the legend can feed them back in the future. Overall, it is a good thing that has advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.
As for the objects of possession, the Black Earl has a choice. Those who have potential and are willing to break through between life and death are the ones truly worthy of possession.
If you have been staying at home, avoiding the unknown and blocking the way forward, it is better to let these people continue to misunderstand. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com
So the Noah family is now divided into two groups: one group is possessed, they know everything, but they will not tell the truth; the other group does not know the truth and avoid it by "staying at home" Those who believe in rumors.
Vai used to be the latter, but this time the duel forced him to join the former's team.
It can be regarded as opening the door to a new world for him.
This is also the reason why the Black Earl decided to let Vai have a duel. From the first duel, the Black Earl could see that Vai's sharpness has not completely disappeared, his potential is still there, and his decisiveness is still there. exist. Therefore, the Black Earl gave Vai a chance to make a choice between life and death.
However, the Black Earl did not expect that the opponent would be so cruel, Gu Ao's eyes would be on him, and Vai would not even have a chance to choose.
Either die or be possessed.
In this case, Vai had to choose to be possessed. After all, the Noah family trained him, and he was willing to do something in return before "death".
But the result was something Vai didn't expect.
Being possessed is not death, but the beginning of another journey.
Although Vai was more forced to choose possession, he eventually embarked on this path. Maybe this can be considered... luck?
