Chapter 881 Miriam's Question
"...What 'why'? Anyway, let's go! The boss is waiting for you to go back!"
The shadow man named Ahaz saw that Miriam was still sitting on the ground, and in desperation, he didn't care that there was something wrong with her expression, so he reached out to pull her up.
At first, he pulled Miriam up, but after that, Miriam withdrew his hand forcefully.
"No, I don't understand!" She staggered back a step, a little lost and said, "When I went back to the headquarters, why was there no one in there? Do you know? You know that I brought the unconscious Aya Is it how it felt when Sa came home and could only look at the empty corridors and rooms?"
There were no tears in Miriam's eyes, because this incident had caused her pain countless times, so that even the feeling of grievance had been replaced by disappointment.
"Ahaz, tell me—where did Grandpa Lavin, you, and the others go? Why didn't you even give me any news when you knew I might be back? Why?"
Ahaz frowned when he heard this.
"Why else?" He asked a little puzzled, "Because we are dead soldiers, isn't it? The boss judges that if you go back, Hai Erbo will probably be lured there, so we must evacuate in time and secretly. "
When he said this, he suddenly spread his hands and said:
"Besides, didn't the boss ask me to rescue you? What else do you have to complain about... Also, didn't the boss say it? It's best not to use that name outside—"
"'Dead man'..." Miriam muttered the word softly, and shook her head after a long while, "Ahaz, this period of imprisonment made me think a lot...Really, I don't understand, why did I choose If a child undergoes bloodline transformation, must he become a so-called 'dead man'?"
"Yes, we were all voluntary at the time, and we could spend our lives quietly as ordinary people without taking risks." She said, "When we knew this, most of us were moved by Grandpa Lavin's kindness. I was touched... especially those of us who chose to change bloodlines."
"But don't you think it's strange to change the life after success without mentioning the success rate of bloodline transformation?"
Miriam looked at the room, then at the magic shackles on her feet, and then moved her feet, making a rattling sound of chains rubbing against each other.
"Why should we be dead soldiers? Why can't we repay Grandpa Lavin in other ways? Why are there so many dangerous and terrible tasks waiting for us?"
"Are those tasks also our own choices?"
Before the words fell, Miriam closed her eyes slightly, and said lightly:
"I don't understand why such a kind and kind Grandpa Lavin has allowed this terrible reward to continue until now. I heard that our organization has been around for nearly a thousand years, so...after the bloodline transformation is successful, it will inevitably become a dead man When did the practice start?"
Miriam's tone seemed very sincere, because she really couldn't figure out these questions. And speaking of this, she couldn't help but sighed lightly, and her expression became more and more confused.
"To be honest, I am very grateful to Grandpa Lavin for saving me... If it's just me dying this time, then I will never say anything. But when I watched Asaph collapse in the corridor of the headquarters, I couldn't find When everyone's figure,
I started thinking about all this. "
"Ahaz, what do you say—for Grandpa Lavin, what is the meaning of our existence?"
The shadow man, who was a little confused by Miriam's series of questions, shook his head in a daze.
To him, Miriam was his predecessor in the organization. Back then, he joined the organization a few years later than Miriam, and it was Miriam, the "big sister", who led him to grow up.
And since he also survived the blood transformation, Miriam took him through the harsh training and took care of him during that time.
In fact, until he discovered his talent for soul magic, Miriam was always the one who led him and encouraged him.
Even the concept of "dead man" was first told to him by Miriam himself.
But now, Miriam herself suddenly expressed confusion about the meaning of the existence of "dead soldiers", and even seemed to want to deny this so-called "convention" that seemed somewhat inconsistent in the organization.
"This... I don't know what you are talking about. How can we guess the wisdom of the boss at will?" Ahaz hesitated. Bo is back..."
"Well," Miriam nodded immediately, "If you want to leave, take this girl first! Remember to return to Grandpa Lavin as soon as possible..."
"Miriam!"
When Ahaz heard this, he immediately grabbed her arm again.
"I'm here to take you away—don't you, don't you want to leave? Even... Even if you don't go to see the boss, you can go out with me first!"
But Miriam broke free from his grasp again.
"No," she said stubbornly, "you don't understand the horror of Haierbo at all - if there is no shelter, no matter where we escape, it will be useless. I missed Mr. McLean's help last time, and I regret it...so This time, I won't make the same mistake again."
At the end of the conversation, Miriam said in a deep voice: "Whether Asaph is dead or not, at least I want to live until I see him with my own eyes."
...
Not to mention the huge change in Miriam's state of mind, Maca, who followed Haierbo just now, has already really fought with the other party.
Compared with the previous few times, today's Hai Erbo is obviously very negative in mentality.
Speaking of the previous Hai Erbo, whether it was the first time when he clearly had the upper hand, or the latest time when he retreated strategically, his mentality was actually pretty much the same.
As for Maca McLean, a modern young wizard, Haierbo admitted that he had excellent talent and sufficient strength, but he never regarded Maca on the same level.
Of course, Haierbo's second-level rules are indeed much stronger than Maca's first-level peak. Even though it sounds like the two are not far away, the actual gap is huge.
But also because of this, when Haierbo saw Maca using magic power to outline the soul rule rune - "arrogance", he was really taken aback.
When did the research on secondary rule runes become so worthless?
But where did he expect that Maca has the volume of truth and notes from his "future self", as well as a series of tests from the bronze eagle, each of which is a sharp weapon that can assist him in the study of rules.
Right now, in the Muggle building that Haierbo was looking for, Maca was chasing and intercepting while controlling wisps of cold air, while holding up his staff to release the power of the soul rule.
Even though his current usage is still a bit rough, none of the students in this living room whose souls have been transformed by Haierbo are not allowed to act rashly—the order of Haierbo, the "master", has expired.
"Chi Chi Chi—"
Suddenly, a series of rock-formed thorns formed under Maca's feet, easily piercing through the wooden floor. But Maca's movement speed was faster than those ground thorns formed, and it didn't affect him at all.
And as the terrible cold air circulated rapidly in the room, while blocking Haierbo's way out, it also gradually turned the entire living room into an ice cave.
Not only were the walls and the ground covered with thick ice crystals, but even the roof and the open doors and windows were covered with a lot of icicles.
It can be said that as long as Haierbo has not recovered his original strength, this narrow indoor environment is undoubtedly extremely unfavorable to him.
But if it wasn't for Maca's soul rule rune that cut off Haierbo's "subordinates" first, Haierbo might have disappeared without a trace. Otherwise, he might not have dared to hide Maca in the basement and wait and see secretly.
It's just that it's too late for Haierbo to regret it now. Because he found that he might really fall into Maca's hands again this time...
"Boom—"
A large group of flames exploded suddenly in this ice cave, but they couldn't hold on for even a second, and were instantly extinguished on the spot by a large amount of cold current.
With the support of the current sentence of the flesh, the few spells that Haierbo can cast using the rules of the soul are the soul flames similar to Fiendfyre.
But how can he embed his soul and shape various flame-like life forms when the flame itself cannot be formed?
"Tsk...does this body have to be given up too?"
If you only talk about the quality of the body, the one brought out from the ground is actually stronger, and it is not only stronger than one and a half centimeters.
This point can be seen from the fact that even Maca was forced to use his brains.
It's a pity that the body of the ancient wizard, which was originally obtained thousands of years ago, was scrapped at once by the death rule that Maca induced him to detonate the backlash, which was really a considerable loss.
Compared with that, Hai Erbo doesn't really care much about his current body.
However, suppressing other people's souls and taking other people's bodies by force obviously requires a lot of energy. So before waiting for the demon summoning technique, it's better not to waste it, isn't it?
"boom!"
Seeing that Maca wanted to control the cold air again, Haierbo immediately pulled up a rock slab from the ground to block it, and then wanted to break through the wall and get out.
But before he took the second step, a stream of cold air mixed with ice crystals passed in front of him, forcing him to stop.
At the same time, a third cold current fell from the sky, and it was about to engulf him the moment he paused.
Even if the line of sight is blocked by rocks, Maca can still accurately know Haierbo's position. It can be seen that it was no accident that he discovered the existence of Hai Erbo in the basement.
"Hairbo, don't struggle—it's not like you can't escape!"
