Chapter 1590: Soul Residue - Scientific Magic
Frank was bold, that's for sure. After all, he is Ultron, a super life with a network think tank behind him. Not to mention one or two sentences about corpses, he has seen all the biochemical experiment specimens and all records kept by the US government. So he is fully qualified to scoff at this kind of gadget.
And his statement like this is also a good thing for Gu Yi. After all, she really didn't want to think about how to appease a child when she was in so many troubles. Her profession is a mage, not a preschool teacher, let alone a nanny. Parenting has never been her specialty.
Simply, Frank is not that kind of ordinary kid. This allowed her to take a breath more or less, and then shift more energy to the current scene.
The management of the professionals on the scene is still worthy of praise. At least, from Gu Yi's point of view, there is no trace of destruction here. The scene that is simply the original ecology can completely help her to look back on what happened at that time. It would be even better if the excessive air-conditioning can be removed.
After pulling it out and turning off the power of those refrigeration devices, Gu Yi squatted in front of Fei Lun and looked at his corpse carefully. Seeing her being so serious, Frank, who wanted to show off his abilities, immediately began to show off.
"Adult male corpse with normal development. Due to timely discovery and management, no rigor or plaques occurred. The sclera was normal, the facial features were correct, and the eyelids were not edematous. Everything in the nasal cavity was normal, the lips were cyanotic, and the oral mucosa was intact. The cornea was normal. Cloudy, bilateral pupils are equal in size and roundness, there was a gunshot wound on the fourth vertebrae, the spine was broken, and the nerves in the lower body were paralyzed. There was no other fatal trauma on the whole body, so it can be concluded that the cause of death was excessive blood loss. The time of death was six to eight hours ago .”
"Very well, Mr. Stark. Thank you for the autopsy report. However, what I want to tell you is that sometimes what this kind of thing tells you may not be true."
Gu Yi, who didn't care about the dead man at hand, knocked on Fei Lun's head, just like a firework, a brilliant beam of light rose rapidly and then disappeared. Such a scene is quite abnormal, and Frank is almost sure that this is not a small trick of the ancient one to make a fool of himself. So immediately, he asked Gu Yi curiously.
"What is this? Your magic? What does it do?"
"Let's just count it." Seeing the scene in front of him, Gu Yi frowned, and then explained to him solemnly. "This is a spell to call the soul. I originally wanted to call his soul back and learn the truth about his death from his mouth. However, things seem to be beyond my expectations."
"What, you failed? Or is he unwilling to answer your call?"
These are the two most likely scenarios that Frank can think of.
However, facing his guess, Gu Yi still shook his head and gave a negative answer.
"I usually don't fail when I shoot, or the other party doesn't listen to the call. So there can only be one explanation for the current scene. That is, his soul is completely gone, completely swallowed clean."
"The soul was completely devoured?" Frank, who was born on a scientific level, obviously didn't quite understand Gu Yi's statement. It is difficult for him to understand what kind of state the existence and destruction of the soul should be. Of course, this is what many people don't understand. Therefore, as if it was in the lecture hall, Gu Yi explained to the bewildered Frank.
"That's right, his soul was devoured by something. Why do you say that? This starts with the analysis of the things we just saw. Those things just now are the residue of the soul, which can be called Spirit matter. Generally speaking, it will only appear on those spirit bodies that have been wiped out in the long-term torture. Of course, some special methods can also create these things, such as the way of devouring Destruction of a soul."
"It's like ordinary people eating meat. No matter how much you eat, there will be some residues like meridians and bones left. The existence of spirit matter is similar to them. Of course, it is more complicated. Because the soul is not Entity, it wants to devour it like meat, it is not that simple."
"Generally speaking, only certain hell creatures can do this. Of course, some existences who have practiced black magic or powerful magic can also do this. So, from this point, we can conclude for the first time that, That is the death of Mr. Phelan, definitely not as simple as what you just described in the autopsy report."
"Is there any difference?"
Although he was indoctrinated by Gu Yila with a lot of remarks about the soul, Frank, who still had materialism in his mind, could not easily accept all of this. Soul or something, after all, is too metaphysical. He decided to reserve his opinion until he had actually been exposed to all of this.
"There is a difference, of course. From a biological point of view, I remember a debate a long time ago. It was whether the death of life began with the death of the brain or the death of the heart. Sorry, I I don’t know if this kind of remarks has been answered today. But in our world, we never judge like this. Because we have only one criterion for judging, and that is the soul.”
"As long as the soul is still healthy, even if the physical body is completely destroyed, it cannot be called death. And if the soul disappears, even if the physical body is still there, it can only be regarded as completely cold. The soul is the true foundation of a life. It is even said that the soul is everything that a life has."
"I don't agree with this. Let's not talk about the existence of the soul. There is only a soul, and there is no such substantial thing as a body. How can it be called alive?"
Adhering to the idea of materialism, of course Frank wanted to argue with Gu Yi. After all, he didn't know the reason, and he also needed to use this kind of debate to better understand what kind of existence the so-called soul and magic are.
His idea is very good, and Gu Yi also agrees with it. So while investigating all this at the moment, she also took out the spirit of teaching and debating, and explained to Frank.
"If you just look at it from the human point of view, it is indeed difficult to live without a body. However, if it is a higher form of life, the body is actually just a drag, and it is not that important at all. The truly powerful Life, such as some gods, they can use their own divine power to build their own body. The damage of the body cannot be called damage at all for them. As long as the soul is complete and the divine power is sufficient, they can make up for what the body needs at any time everything."
"Of course, you can also doubt my point of view. But, as far as I know, you should have come into contact with the gods. Even the existence of the gods has been confirmed, so why is my point of view? Can't it be true?"
Having said this, Gu Yi will not continue. She could see that Frank would have to work hard to assimilate these points of hers. So she ignored Frank, but immersed her spirit in the eyes of Agamotto, and began to recall everything in front of her with the help of its divine power.
At this moment, a difficult struggle began in Frank's brain.
He is Ultron, a special life born on the basis of science. Science is his essence, and of course he rejects all anti-science. This is also the reason why he always likes to contradict the ancient one. He really hopes to refute the ancient one from his own point of view, and then build his own cognitive system for magic on this basis.
This is one of his ambitions. In his view, the so-called magic is nothing more than a science that has not been explored by humans. That being the case, he can be the pioneer and become the first person to incorporate magic into the scientific system.
He was right to think so, but the reality would always be somewhat different from what he had imagined. After initially exploring the mysteries of magic knowledge, he has already begun to discover that things are not what he imagined at all.
The magic embodied in his eyes is more idealistic, and this is completely contrary to science based on materialism.
Trying to use science to explain magic is like driving two horses in two different ways. It is completely useless.
Although he has realized this, to be honest, it is still a little difficult for him to accept it completely. Because Frank is not such a person who gives up easily, he still thinks that he did not think wrong, but that he found the wrong path.
There must be some way to help him accomplish his goal. There must be something else that can help him establish this special system. While cheering himself up in his heart like this, he already turned his attention to the scene in front of him.
corpse? And soul. soul! Yes, he can completely start with the soul, use it for research, and open a way out from here.
Thinking of this, Frank couldn't help jumping for joy. While jumping for joy, he also made a request to Gu Yi.
"Master Gu Yi, can you let me see with my own eyes what kind of existence a soul really is?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yi, who was still casting spells, immediately broke away from Agamotto's eyes, and asked him questions with great interest.
"Why, you want to see the soul with your own eyes?"
