Starting From Zero

Volume 19, Chapter 222: Everyone Returns to Their Respective Places

Ling, who was holding the woman's soul, pushed me away and then said: "Don't worry, this magic circle can turn us back to the wrong position, but it just takes time. And you'd better move us first." Figure out who is who, even if you want to come back, you have to figure out who is who first!"

After hearing what she said, I also reacted, and then quickly asked everyone to stand in a row and tell each other who they were. After a simple exchange, we finally figured out the current personnel situation.

First of all, the bodies of the woman and Ling were swapped, which meant that the souls of the woman we saved before and Ling's souls occupied each other's bodies. This was a mutual exchange of places.

Apart from the two of them, the rest are in more trouble. Those participating in the conversion magic circle control include Xiaochun, Crystal, Victoria and Xiaolongnu, and the current situation is like this. Xiao Chun's body is filled with Victoria's soul, and Crystal's body is filled with Xiao Chun's soul. Victoria's body is actually filled with Xiao Longnu's soul, and Little Dragon Girl's body is currently filled with Crystal's. soul. To put it simply, these four people have transferred their "sexuality" to each other, and the four people need to perform a reverse rotation to move their souls back.

"Now we know who is who, but how do we turn around?" I said, looking at the woman who had taken over Ling's body.

The woman did not answer my question, but said: "There are two ways to solve the problem, it depends on which one you want to choose."

"How to say?"

"Because my soul had to be forcibly extracted from the monster's body and then inserted into my body that had no soul in the first place. In addition, the monster's body contained a magic circle that sealed the transfer of the soul. And I can't control the operation of the magic circle in the monster's body, which is why the transfer just now was so troublesome. Now my soul in this body can control the operation of the magic circle, and without the interference of the imprisonment, I can control the magic circle. It will become much simpler. As for the two methods I mentioned...it depends on whether you want to save trouble or trouble."

"What does it mean to save trouble and waste time?"

"To save trouble, let me and the owner of the body I occupy perform a one-to-one transformation first, and transfer our souls back first. Then I'll control the magic circle to make one-to-one adjustments for the four of them. In this way, After a few adjustments, everyone can be put back into the correct body.”

"Why use troublesome methods when there is such a good method?"

The woman said: "This method is indeed trouble-free, but each conversion requires consuming some gems, so it will cost a lot of money."

"The troublesome method doesn't require gems?"

"The troublesome method is to use the magic circle just now to adjust our souls all at once. Although it also requires gems, it is done at one time and the total consumption can be reduced a lot. However, this The trouble with the branch is that everyone’s soul positions need to be slowly adjusted during the conversion, so the entire conversion process may take a day.”

"Then you'd better use the method that saves trouble. I'll go crazy waiting here for a day."

"Oh well."

Since I have promised to provide gems, the woman is naturally more willing to use the less troublesome method. She first took the key and adjusted the position of the magic circle on the ground again. She felt that the key was the control core of the magic circle. It could be used to create many different effects on the magic circle at will. Watching the woman adjusting the magic circle there, I already made a plan in my mind. When I leave, I must move the floor of this floor and the entire magic circle. This technology of being able to assemble magic arrays as needed is really awesome. It would be even more perfect if it could be reduced in size. Just thinking about it briefly, I have already thought of three important uses of this variable magic array, and its value will be immeasurable. Of course, that is a problem for later. The first problem now is to adjust the souls of my demon pets back.

After preparing the magic array, the woman removed all the extra external array disks, leaving only two magic array disks in the end. This time, no guidance was needed. Ling and the woman immediately stood on the two magic array plates. The woman occupying Ling's body said through Ling's body: "I will activate the magic circle in a moment. You just need to be careful not to resist the power of the magic circle. You don't have to worry about anything else."

Ling Cao manipulated the woman's body and nodded, then waited for the other party to activate the magic circle. This time, the woman didn't do anything wrong. She directly pressed her hands on the magic circle, and then two streams of light flashed through. The magic circle completed the soul conversion in less than five seconds. Looking at Ling walking down from the magic circle, I tentatively asked with some uncertainty, "Are you Ling?"

Ling nodded and said: "I've changed it back, but I always feel a little dizzy."

"That's because part of the soul energy is consumed during the soul transformation process. You will feel this way for the next ten hours, but the symptoms will become lighter and lighter."

"I feel like throwing up now."

"Those are all normal reactions. After all, this magic circle is not perfect yet."

After the woman finished speaking, I went over and grabbed his shoulders. I paused for a few seconds in her puzzled eyes before letting her go and said, "Your attributes are pretty good. Then... fulfill your promise and become my magic pet."

In response to my request, the woman unexpectedly had no intention of denying the debt. She directly chose to become my demon pet. After confirming it, I immediately saw her under her character attributes. Familiar information. To be honest, there are not many guys with her ability and such trustworthiness.

Before, I pinched her shoulders and just used Star Pupils to check her simple attributes. Now, after becoming a demon pet, I can directly see her detailed attributes. The column for this woman's name was empty, and she obviously needed me to name it, but her racial identity column actually read Valkyrie.

"Are you a Valkyrie?"

"Any questions?" Hearing my question, the other party asked me back.

"No, I'm just surprised. Well, is your warrior god a race, or are you a god?"

"I am a protoss, and my original title is Valkyrie."

"Which divine clan are you originally a Valkyrie from?" Ling suddenly asked.

"Of course it's the Free Gods. Are there any other Gods that can set foot on the territory of the United States?"

My brows immediately furrowed when I heard the other party's answer. It is obvious that this woman has a strong sense of belonging to the Free God Clan. The words she just said showed that she is quite proud of being a Free God Clan. Originally this was nothing, but the problem is that our relationship with the Free Gods is quite tense now. Once she knows about my relationship with the Free Gods, how can I cultivate her loyalty? Besides, even if her loyalty is no problem, it probably won’t be easy for me to cause trouble for the Free Gods in the future. As my demon pet, I can't hide my affairs from her at all, and if I want to hunt down the free gods to obtain the soul in the future, she will definitely have an ideological struggle. Do I have to force her not to intervene?

"Then what... let's not talk about this first. You'd better convert them all back first."

After hearing my words, Xiao Longnu and the others who had been waiting quietly on the side immediately ran over and asked for the switch. After I took out the gems, Valkyrie began to prepare the magic circle for them. Previously, because it was a two-person exchange led by herself, she could just use two auxiliary magic circles. Now she needs to control it from the side, and there are two positions for the two people who are exchanging souls, so it is necessary to add another magic array disk, and the structure of the main body of the magic array also needs to be adjusted.

After working hard for more than ten minutes, the magic circle was finally adjusted. After a fierce game of guessing, Victoria finally got the first chance to transform back into her own body. Of course, I have always had deep doubts about the fairness of this result. Is it possible for ordinary people to win in a luck-related game like guessing game with the goddess of victory?

Because Victoria's soul is now in Xiao Chun's body, and her own body contains Xiao Longnu's soul, so the first scene is about Victoria and Xiao Longnu exchanging souls. After the two stood still, the magic circle was activated, and it took only five seconds to complete the soul conversion of the two people. Victoria finally returned to her body, but now Xiao Longnu's soul ran into Xiao Chun's body.

After helping the dizzy Victoria to rest, the little dragon girl dragged her dizzy head and prepared to compete with the other two players for the next round of conversion opportunities, but they were interrupted by the Valkyrie before they even started.

"You have just completed one transformation. If you perform a second transformation immediately, it will cause permanent damage to the soul. It is better to let the two of them do it first."

Helplessly, Xiao Longnu could only stay back, and then let Crystal and Xiao Chun start swapping bodies first. The soul of the crystal is now in Xiao Longnu's body, and the body used by Xiao Chun is made of crystal. In this way, after the two people switch, the crystal will return to his body, but Xiao Chun ran into Xiao Longnu's body. .

I replaced the gems on the magic circle and started it again. This time, the soul conversion was still successfully completed. Of course, they were happy to have their crystal souls returned, but Xiaochun and Xiaolongnu were dazed waiting for them to exchange souls. However, because this one-to-one soul exchange method places a heavy burden on the souls of both parties, neither person can perform the soul conversion immediately and can only wait for the soul to stabilize first. But fortunately, according to Valkyrie, this process only takes two hours. Compared to the complicated method which requires waiting for a day, this is already fast. Of course, these two hours cannot be wasted. I plan to use this time to study the notes mentioned in the mission.

Not all mission items in "Zero" need to be turned in. For example, there is a mission that asks you to dig for a treasure. The reward is ten gold coins, but when you dig out the treasure and open it, you will find a skill book inside. A skill book must cost more than ten gold coins, not even ten crystal coins. At this time, you can choose not to submit the task and obtain the skill book directly. Of course, not all tasks can be skipped. For example, if you accept some tasks but do not complete them, there will be penalties. For such tasks, you need to weigh the gains and losses yourself.

The task I got to get the experimental notes has no failure penalty at all, and the reward doesn't seem to be too important. Besides, the Gunslinger promised me that I can choose the reward of two tasks. If this notebook is valuable, then I will take it. Get this mission, then leave with the notes and abandon the mission directly.
