Chapter 1679: Evil Demon? Inner Demon?
Time passed by minute by minute, and Angel kept an eye on the fluctuations of the Heart House.
Although he could not spy on the specific situation in the Heart House, he could roughly guess the situation inside through the illusion fluctuations.
At the beginning, the fluctuations rose rapidly, and when it reached a certain peak, it slowly dropped, but did not fall back to the origin, but continued to rise and fall.
According to Angel's speculation, if Cell really encountered his own inner demon, or obsession. They should be in a battle at this time, restraining each other, and the battle was stalemate.
About five minutes later, the illusion fluctuations finally began to drop, and it was a cliff-like drop. If expressed in coordinate axes, it is directly falling vertically at a certain coordinate point, the horizontal axis position remains unchanged, and the vertical axis returns to zero.
When seeing this scene, Angel turned his head to look at Cell.
The Heart House was placed on the table, and Cell was lying on the table, covered by the energy of the Heart House.
The illusion fluctuations returned to zero, and the energy covering Cell was gradually withdrawn. When the energy completely disappeared, Cell suddenly opened his eyes.
He sat up suddenly, as if he had a nightmare, stroking his chest with his hands, and breathing heavily.
After a long while, Cell's breath gradually calmed down.
"Am I not dead? Where is this place?" Cell turned his head and looked around, and finally fixed his eyes on Angel and Frode not far away.
"Don't worry, you are not dead." Frode's eyes were also focused on Cell at this time: "It seems that you have experienced a nightmare. I wonder if you are interested in talking to us?"
It seems that Frode is asking for Cell's opinion, but his eyes are staring straight at Cell, as if with a threat.
Cell has not recovered yet, his eyes subconsciously glanced around, and when he saw something, his pupils suddenly shrank.
It was a miniature wooden house, right in front of him.
This wooden house looks like a toy for children, but its style... is exactly the same as the wooden house he saw before! Cell could even smell a faint floral scent from this mini wooden house.
In this floral scent, Cell's panic slowly dissipated, and his rationality began to return.
Frode's question, coupled with the wooden house in front of him, made Cell realize that his previous experience was definitely not a simple nightmare. If it was really an ordinary dream, then this wooden house could not have come to reality from a dream.
In other words, the wooden house, the long corridor, the three doors, and the terrifying monster he encountered before were not accidental, but were caused by external forces?
Cell knew that Angel and Frode were extraordinary people with magical powers, and it was indeed possible for them to do all this.
However, Cell did not understand why they did this?
When Cell was confused, Frode asked again: "If you tell your nightmare, the level of intimidation will be much lower. Are you really not going to tell it?"
This time, Frode's eyes were narrowed into a slit, and the dangerous light flickered from time to time. Cell could feel that if he remained silent, he might not experience a nightmare, but make the nightmare a reality.
"I went through a strange journey." Cell paused and looked at the mini wooden house on the table: "I saw this wooden house, and when I entered this wooden house, I came to a corridor with three doors on it."
"Three doors? It seems that you have a lot of obsessions." Frode chuckled.
Obsession? Cell caught this word, his eyes flickered, and he pointed to the wooden house on the table and asked: "Master Tison, what exactly is this wooden house?"
Frode did not answer, but turned his head and asked Angel with his eyes. After seeing Angel nod slightly, Frode pondered and said: "It doesn't matter what the wooden house is, but it did lead to your journey."
"However, compared to the journey, I think it is more appropriate to describe it as 'trial'."
Cell: "Trial?"
Frode nodded: "Yes, this is a treasure for training demon hunters to face their inner weaknesses."
What a demon hunter is, Cell doesn't know. But according to the literal meaning, it should be a person who hunts monsters.
Then, could this monster be the terrifying monster he fought before?
"My answer is over, now it's your turn. I hope you can tell every detail of your entry into the trial, after all, you once had the opportunity to become a demon hunter, and your experience can also add a set of data to the evil hunting team."
He once had the opportunity to become a demon hunter? And the evil hunting team? Cell captured this information, but did not ask immediately, but buried it silently in his heart.
"It's my honor to help Master Tisen." Cell paused: "But I have a small question, will I have the opportunity to participate in the trial again in the future?"
"Why, do you want to try it again?" Frode raised his eyebrows. Cell's appearance just now was obviously that he had experienced a nightmare of imminent death. One time was not enough, and he wanted to try it again?
Cell hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Yes, but not now."
At this time, Angel suddenly said: "If you can give a sufficient reason, I don't mind making an exception for you."
Cell turned to look at Angel: "I will."
In the following time, Cell told his experience in the House of Heart. However, he did not talk about the significance of the three doors to him at the beginning, but directly said that he entered the third door and fought with the terrible monster.
"Its head is like a worm, and its ears have butterfly wings. Isn't this..." Frode hesitated for a moment and said the name that Angel hastily named: "Ophidia?"
Angel nodded, "It is indeed an Ophidia."
"That's a bit wrong. As an evil demon, the Ophidia has been expelled from his body. Why does it still appear? Is there any remnant?" Frode was a little puzzled, "And if it is an Ophidia, then this experiment seems to be in vain."
Evil demons are neither obsessions nor obsessions. But from a macro perspective, it is more like obsession, which runs counter to Angel's desire to experiment with obsessions.
Angel: "Ophidia is an evil demon, but the Ophidia that Cell experienced before is not necessarily a real evil demon."
Frode: "What do you mean?"
"Having the image of an evil demon does not mean that it is a real evil demon. It is also possible that his inner demon is an evil demon." Angel replied. Although he only said "maybe", his tone was very firm.
The Ophidia on Cell was expelled by him personally. Therefore, Angel was very sure that there was no evil demon in Cell.
Since there was no evil demon, why did the Heart House project an evil demon? Then there was only one possibility, that the evil demon itself was Cell's inner demon.
Frode also pondered for a moment: "It seems to be like this. Knight Sabel also encountered the Sharp Tooth Acer in the Heart House. Although the Sharp Tooth Acer looked fierce, it did not actively attack Knight Sabel."
Cell was different. He did not show any aggressive behavior towards the Snaketail Worm in the Heart House, but the Snaketail Worm took the initiative to attack him.
This means that the Snaketail Worm is definitely not an evil demon that tends to be obsessed.
It is an obsessive demon itself!
