Chapter 231: Online Meeting
Chapter 230 – Online Meeting
“Where’s Lloyd, how’s he doing?”
As soon as he entered the gladiatorial phalanx, Heine asked Maharaja.
The latter had been helping Lloyd with his “brain recovery training” these days.
Heine also realized that as long as someone was chasing Lloyd and forcing him to react, the speed at which he inhaled the metamaterials to repair his soul would increase.
“He can already call out his name, my lord!”
Maharishi immediately shouted to the cabin next to him:
“Lloyd!”
The human-looking Lloyd ran out of the house and looked at Maharishi blankly.
“Who are you?” Nobita asked.
“Lloyd Gittler!”
Lloyd shouted as if by reflex.
Heine connected with Lloyd and asked him, “Do you really know who Lloyd is?”
“It’s familiar, but I can’t remember yet.”
He had only mistakenly recognized the two spirits as ancestors, could this guy not have eaten all the spirits of his ancestors?
Pinto looked dumbfounded.
Heine guessed that this was mostly someone of note that Lloyd had met before.
Lloyd was no stranger to the voice that appeared in his head.
It was a psionic technique similar to “Soul Suck”.
Heine: “You’re just in time, he’s become one of your people?”
“It’s okay. Do you remember Hathar? Clan Split Toe, Priest of Souls, and Copper Mirror, Underworld, Thanatos ……”
“Go ahead and get busy, I’ll talk to him.” He said.
Lloyd visibly shuddered when Heine said “Thanatos”.
“Ursa?”
Lloyd tried hard to remember, but eventually gave up.
The shattered silver light around him darted into his body, causing his form to rapidly become solidified.
Heine was busy asking, “Where did you escape from, a prison cell?”
Lloyd was still changing.
“Hathar?”
It just seemed a little odd to have such a fearsome head on a thin frame.
Soon, he recovered and said excitedly to Heine, “My lord, I seem to have remembered something …… The reason why I appeared in the Split Toe Clan was to communicate with Thanatos …… No, not to communicate, but to deceive …… disguise! That’s right, disguise! I’m going to disguise myself as someone else to establish contact with him, that’s my mission!”
Then holding his head, he crouched on the ground.
He also rubbed his eyes.
“I’m sorry, my lord, I just remember the joy of this aftermath.”
“I …… my mind is a mess, I see many fragmented memories, but can’t be sure if that belongs to me …… but one thing I’m sure of is that I escaped, I made it.”
Nobita had a face that invited credit, and Heine was speechless for a moment.
Nobita walked away beautifully.
It had been a long time since Heine had personally parsed a skill since the skeletons had gotten better and better at generalized language.
“Look, my lord!”
Unsure, take another look.
He shook his head.
“Yes my lord, the one in front is the Matriarch, and the one in the back is Hathar, the Priest of Souls.”
The pinto who was watching from the sidelines exclaimed in shock.
Lloyd was completely immersed in his own world and continued to change.
He didn’t block the other man, but carefully sensed the fluctuations around him.
“Yes, my lord!”
“So what all do you remember?”
As Lloyd spoke, his body was writhing and contorting as fast as a soft mud monster.
“It’s really ……”
That is, instead of praying for the meta-spirit to help it, it took the initiative to use the meta-material to disguise itself.
But no one would recognize the next appearance.
His head suddenly became larger, and his features were hideous.
But this time the unfailing resolution went awry.
This skill is too complicated …… for him to follow.
It’s not a matter of “the eyes will be able to do it but the hands won’t”, but even the eyes can’t keep up with it.
After a few attempts, he directly called off Lloyd.
“What did you used to talk to Thanatos about after ‘disguising’ yourself like this?”
“It seemed to be passing messages …… That’s exactly why I came to the Split Toe Clan, they were brewing a plot that I had to stop because it would jeopardize …… jeopardize… …”
Lloyd banged his head hard and finally gave up in dismay.
“Can’t think of any more ……”
So Heine asked in a different way, “‘At midnight, make sure the person is in front of the mirror and no one is around,’ is that instruction familiar to you?”
Lloyd was instantly excited, “That’s what the first call means, a most fortunate situation! To be able to go to Him without a disguise, I just love that command!”
So that’s it? ……
Heine pondered.
For the first time, Hathar had received a directive that required an “online meeting”, and it didn’t look like he needed a disguise.
“Is there anything to keep in mind when meeting Him?”
“Prostrate yourself humbly, pray respectfully, and bring your sincerest praise after every word.”
Heine: “Is that all?” Lloyd seems to fall into some kind of trance and loses the ability to respond.
Seeing this Heine was not going to continue.
It was too much torture for Lloyd.
After thinking about it, Heine relieved him:
“If you were referring to jeopardizing the McCalla Mountains, then you’ve already done that. The mountains are safe now.”
“Safe? ……”
Lloyd murmured in a trance.
It was as if he’d let go of a preoccupation, and his expression slackened.
……
Heine left the phalanx and hoofed it to the eastern stronghold to find Gawain.
However neither Gawain nor Catch the Goat and the others could give him any help in this regard.
Sheep Catchers and Northeasterners were even discussing the possibility of using a toilet plunger to suck Thanatos over from the mirror side, scaring Heine so much that he hastily dismissed the idea of seeking help from these two goods.
Based on past experience, once Sheep Catchers were babbling along with him, it was a dead giveaway that this was not going to work.
It seems that we can only rely on the wisdom of the aborigines!
…
At midnight, the secret room of the lord’s mansion.
Chief Sa’s soul fire floated silently above the spell, but the light was dim.
Cyan-colored streams of air frantically pooled into it, replenishing the magazines he had emptied.
Chief Sa was resting in a fish pond at the moment, and the outline of half a cranial cavity had appeared around the soulfire.
He was performing three kinds of recovery in one breath – soul quality, torso, and transcendental energy.
It could be called the most efficient utilization of the fish pond.
At this rate, it would take three days for his body to recover.
After confirming that he was fine, Heine returned to the study and took out the mirror.
The time was up.
The vortex on the mirror resurfaced, and a force that pulled at the soul emanated from it.
Heine didn’t resist, letting the thing pull her into it.
After a moment of heavenly rotation, he felt as if he had been submerged in cold water, and a piercing cold came from everywhere, stimulating his soul.
But at the same time there was also a feeling of groundedness.
He regained his sensory abilities and looked down at himself.
It was exactly the same as when he had entered the Magic Web through the middle of Quirkus’ heart chamber.
The silver-colored surface of the soul mass was covered with a layer of black bark-like spirit embers.
He then looked around with relief.
The dark purple sky was densely populated with stars, and the dark earth was empty.
Every now and then, ghostly green wandering spirits drifted through the air, but one by one, they were far away from him.
Other than that, there was nothing here.
Unsurprisingly, this was the Underworld.
Presumably it was related to the medium, his senses were suppressed to death, unable to leave his body at all.
At that moment, a miserable white spot of light floated in, converging in the air to form a sentence.
“Follow me.”
Heine followed it forward.
It didn’t take him long to see a man wrapped in the same blackness as himself.
The other person had the appearance of a wood elf, and looked quite excited to see him.
The moment the two met, the white spot of light disappeared.
Then there was no more sound.
“Is it Priest Hathar?”
The other greeted him excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Heine couldn’t help but be shocked.
Wasn’t Hathar dead?
No. ……
He instantly recalled the debriefing that Mr. Xia had given himself-
There was no mention of Hattar’s death in half of the information Hattar’s father had provided to the mirror!
In addition, this mirror was not bound to an identity, and the “notice to attend the meeting” that he had given himself had not been verified in the least.
In other words, Thanatos didn’t care about these details.
–The person who got the mirror could just follow the instructions.
That’s probably what it means.
Considering that only necromancers can feel the soul fluctuations of the mirror’s vibrations, as well as the treatment of necromancers in this world that people dislike dogs, in addition to being able to use this thing to communicate, it can even be used to expand the staff and serve as some sort of propaganda.
Worthy of being Sa General!
Heine’s thoughts raced for a moment.
“Yes.”
He responded indifferently.
He analyzed Hathar’s persona for a moment and felt that the Zanroc should have no feelings for elves.
But because of his identity as a soul priest, there were definitely few people who usually held his stinky feet, so he should be rather condescending.
“It’s fine if you call me Gray.”
Gray didn’t mind.
He just looked nervous, probably the first time he’d ever been to an “online meeting”.
“Time is limited, so I’ll make it short, here’s what happened ……”
