Chapter 796: Prayer and Fulfillment
That was when Turas had just died. He had not fallen into the undead for a while and was in a state of soul. His soul escaped from his body. He did not realize that he was dead at the time. He found that his body was very light and began to float upward.
As a result, the earth finally emerged from the hole in the ground.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable when he walked on the ground. But in fact, he successfully passed through the thick earth.
He thought that he had gained extraordinary abilities and could fly and penetrate the earth, so he wanted to leave this four-dimensional sea area blocked by fog. He flew into the sky with all his strength, only to find that there was no place to escape even to the sky above his head.
At this time, Turas finally understood that he seemed to be trapped in a box-like world with no exits on all sides.
So, he returned to the hole in frustration.
He still remembered that when he returned to the cave, he muttered: "What's the use of flying to the sky and escaping to the earth? Why not give me the ability to teleport in space, and I can teleport out directly..."
As a result, when he looked up, he saw a bright golden light emitting from the inside of the skull beside the bed, which lasted for several minutes.
But Tulas didn't think it was strange, because during the time when he was dying, the skull often glowed, and it was no longer strange. He didn't care about the light of the skull, but wanted to go back to bed to recuperate and reduce consumption... although he didn't feel hungry at this time.
But just when he was about to lie down on the bed, he was surprised to find a shriveled and skinny man lying on the bed, with a horn helmet on his head...
Only then did Turas suddenly realize that he was dead.
But now, he is just a ghost.
Turas looked at his body, unwillingness and resentment burst out from his heart.
He is an extremely positive and bright person, full of hope for life. Even when he fell into the darkest place, into isolation and loneliness, he never gave up on his life. He obviously wanted to survive so hard, why did he treat him like this?
In unwillingness, Tulas went crazy.
Then there was a dividing line in his memory. Since then, Tulas's memory has been chaotic.
Come to think of it, he has fallen into an undead form since then.
…
When Turas told this story, Angel belatedly discovered that the context he had been looking for appeared without warning.
A shining golden skull.
Whose skull is this? Lucas's.
Why is Lucas's logbook so strange? Because there will always be inexplicable prophecies.
Turas said "He wants to teleport in space" next to the skull, so the skull always lit up with golden light. Finally, Tulas' wish came true.
Moreover, like other prophecies, his wish was delayed for hundreds of years, and it only began to take shape after he became an undead!
Angel understands now! No wonder when Turas talked about fatalism just now, he felt a flash of inspiration in his mind. Because, he only now discovered that the so-called "prophecy" is actually not a "prophecy" at all!
But a force similar to the law of cause and effect!
Through the mysterious power in the dark, intervene in the future and cause certain results. Finally, let this "cause" become "effect".
However, this kind of power obviously requires a process of accumulating power, and the accumulating time is extremely long, causing both Lucas's "prophecy" and Turas's "prayer" to be delayed for hundreds of years. accomplish.
As for why the "subject" always changes, for example, the protagonist of the sea of flowers changes from Lucas to the beauty Naya, it is most likely because this ability to interfere with the future actually has limitations. It only considers future things, but not the future. In reality, for example, it does not take into account the life span of the recipient.
Lucas's lifespan has expired, and it takes hundreds of years to accumulate energy to realize his wishes, which makes it impossible to realize the desired results on himself.
Therefore, the power in the dark made a "forced correction" as a result.
The receptors for the desired results were modified, which resulted in everything Lucas recorded in the logbook becoming the "fruit" of others.
As for this kind of power that can create something similar to the "law of cause and effect", there is no doubt that it must be some mysterious thing!
According to Turas, the mysterious object is probably the skull on the bedside!
"If that skull is really a mysterious object, why didn't I feel the mysterious power at the beginning?" Although Angel still had some doubts in his heart, he could not find any other context to explain it.
Only this context can connect all the stories.
Angel temporarily ignored Tulas, who fell into sadness because of recalling the past. As long as he doesn't fall anymore, be sad.
Angel took out Lucas's logbook. He decided to alienate his thoughts again and wanted to see if his logbook could correspond to what happened in later generations.
Angel followed his own ideas and quickly found a journal. This journal was the second chapter in which Lucas said that he had killed the pirate leader and seized a large amount of treasure.
He claimed that he had a treasure house that no one could find in the dark world, but he could only enter it.
"Right." This treasure place is probably the dead island. Under the influence of some mysterious power, it finally materialized.
Other flower fields, island spirits, wishing trees, etc., which were not related to the dead island, Angel did not look carefully. He had to find a log related to the island.
Suddenly, Angel saw another log: "... I saw a dragon with fire all over its body, fighting with another monster on the sea. In the end, the fire dragon died. The monster on the sea was also dying. I want to conquer it and make it the watchdog of my treasure place!"
In this log, the watchdog... could it be Livia Tang?
Then Angel continued to read down, and in the next log: "My treasure is enough to shine and shock the world for three thousand years!"
In just a short sentence, it seems that there is no information, but in Angel's eyes, he always feels that this sentence seems to imply some information: for example, his treasure place may appear in the world three thousand years later?
If this is really the case, it seems to be right. Three thousand years later, the closed island was really opened, but it was opened by the watchdog Livia Tang.
Angel continued to flip through the logbook, and there was some information about the treasure place at the back.
It was clearly recorded that the Lingshan was placed in the treasure place by him, and he would stay in the treasure place for a long time... Both of these were finally realized. The Lingshan appeared on the island, and Lucas was brought in by the mysterious power in the dark after jumping into the well and dying.
At this time, Angel had basically determined that this third-party force should be the mysterious thing that has the power to intervene in the future and realize cause and effect.
Angel closed the logbook and looked at the title of the logbook: "The logbook of Lucas, the most honest captain in the Golden Age".
Perhaps Lucas was really a liar in history.
Perhaps Lucas himself did not know that he had a mysterious thing that was being born in his body.
It was because of this that the farce happened later.
Thinking of this, Angel could not help but think deeply. He knew that there was a difference between mysterious things that were born naturally and those that were artificially refined. If his speculation was correct, the mysterious thing in Lucas' body should be born naturally, but what law did the mysterious things born naturally conform to? Why can Lucas, who is a habitual liar, give birth to a mysterious object?
All this is a mystery, and it can only be left for Angel to explore in the future.
Of course, all of the above premises are that Angel's guess must be correct, there is indeed a mysterious object, and the function of this mysterious object must also involve the scope of causality, otherwise all his ideas will be overturned.
However, Angel personally believes that it is almost right.
Although he is now analyzing it very well, his heart is actually bleeding. That is a mysterious object, and it is extremely powerful, and it can even interfere with future results!
Even if his implementation method may have limitations and disadvantages, and it may even be delayed for hundreds of years or even longer before it is realized.
But this cannot cover up the fact that this is a powerful mysterious object!
"If I have this mysterious object, wouldn't it be a direct prayer for myself to become a legend in the future, wouldn't it be done?" Angel was fantasizing in his heart. Of course, he also knew that this kind of wish must have limitations, and it may even be forcibly corrected to other wizards, but it doesn't hurt to think about it.
Anyway... he didn't get the skull either. I guess Lucas's skull has now fallen into the hands of the Deep Sea Song or the Xialu Sea Ridge?
When Angle thought about the mysterious object that was once within his reach, but was not discovered in the dark, he was heartbroken. Toby even reminded himself at the beginning...
The only thing he can do now is to comfort himself that at least he survived.
As long as he is alive, he will encounter similar mysterious objects in the future... Although he himself does not believe it.
"Life always needs ups and downs, otherwise it is a pity to be too perfect."... No wonder.
Just when Angel was still feeling sad, Tulas suddenly exclaimed: "Master Wizard, is that skull some kind of wishing artifact? I said I wanted to teleport, and it came true?!"
After Tulas said that, his expression suddenly became puzzled: "But... if it is a wishing artifact, I clearly prayed to leave the island, why didn't it come true?"
Angel said lightly: "Aren't you out now?"
"But I'm dead now, and it's been more than two thousand years."
"No matter how long it has been, no matter what state you are in now, even if you are dead, it still fulfilled your wish, didn't it?"
Tulas hesitated for a long time, "It seems to be right... If that's the case, then my prayers for more ships to come in, for someone to take me out, and even for not dying... seem to have all come true?"
