Chapter 1042 Lion Head Secret Sutra
At the beginning, Aiwass did not know the specific situation.
But then he heard "The Swan King is not dead yet, and his soul is still looking at the iris somewhere." Aiwass suddenly understood which copy this was -
——There is a saying, and this statement is really not wrong.
After all, according to the original game plot, almost all the powerful forces or individuals in the world who had the intention to change the world were basically beaten to death by the players in the end.
At the time, Aiwass didn't realize there was any problem here - as a player, is there anything wrong with making NPCs who have different positions and opinions from you into BOSS? No problem!
As a BOSS, it is normal to have broken dreams, to be persecuted or not understood by others. It is even more reasonable to have firm determination and perseverance. Only those who meet these conditions can be called strong. The leader of the villain - and breaking the villain's lofty dream is what the "protagonist" as a player should do!
——I'm too lazy to listen, you don't deserve to speak!
From the player's perspective, this can even be regarded as a cool plot - all organizations that have a bad attitude towards "players" will eventually be found to be villains, and there will never be any "whitewashing" plot; and as long as they are villains, basically Xanadu was beaten to death very thoroughly, and at most he ran away once or twice.
But now, more and more various advanced bosses are following Aiwass, and he gradually realizes that something is wrong.
——It is known that there will be an unknown doomsday in the future, and now is the time of transcendence... Is it really necessary for those who try to seek change at this time to be beaten to death? What exactly is the player's position? In other words, as "player" controllers, what is their personal stance? Is it just "world peace"?
At least in this world... In this idealistic world, one needs to have a firm Taoist heart to become strong.
It can be said that... every big villain is a hero who has failed.
——The BOSS known as the "Box of Nothingness" is exactly like this.
Version 4.0 has a total of four difficult editions, of which there are only two Tiansi. The last one is the disaster dragon as the half-body of the Crown Lord. In the original world line, Professor Moriarty took away the heart of the Disaster Dragon at the end - and that was also the precursor of "Aiwass' death".
Among the four high-difficulty books, the easiest one and the first BOSS is called "The Box of Nothingness".
Aiwass rarely fights this dungeon because it is a purely mechanical BOSS. The copy is full of various mini-games, and it feels like playing a game of jelly beans. Aiwass's short-term memory is not very good, and he hates the kind of snapshot memory mechanism - that is, the kind that looks at the color of the colored floor, and then the floor returns to black, and then according to the prescribed mechanism, the skills of different colors are guided to On the same color grid.
Aiwass could only follow his teammates throughout the whole process and could not remember anything at all. As for players like him, Aiwass visually estimated that there are at least 70% of them - as social animals, everyone basically beats himself mercilessly with no intelligence, unlike young students, whose brains have become so rigid that this mechanism can no longer be used. Can't make it through...
And because he kept making waves while playing this dungeon, he clearly remembered the unskippable first five seconds of the CG at the beginning:
The "empty box" like a treasure chest was opened, and what jumped out was not a Mimic - but a handsome human head with eyes closed.
Looking back now, that should be the head of the Swan King.
"——According to my speculation," Aiwass said, "the head of the Swan King should be kept in the home of a Moonchild Earl."
"...Where did this come from?!"
Sherlock blurted out.
He clearly remembered that when he asked Aiwass "What do you think?" Aiwass also said "I'm not sure"!
At that time, Aiwass didn't even know if the Swan King was still alive... He still had to check the answer with himself. As a result, when he turned around, he even knew where the Swan King's head was.
Simply outrageous!
This is not "speculation" at all!
Sherlock became increasingly suspicious of whether Aiwass really had some unspeakable ability to predict...
Aiwass carefully recalled the preliminary tasks of the "Desolate Courtyard of Nothingness" copy, and said from behind: "The Sons of the Moon actually have a secret technology... They can preserve other people's heads, thus Keep others 'alive'."
"Well, I know that."
Unexpectedly, the old Duke nodded and responded: "This is a skill from the "Lion Head Tantra".
"In the past, when the path of love was still the path of beasts, there was a lion god on the path of beasts. He called himself the king of beasts, but his head was beheaded by the supreme heaven, and his head was made into Ornaments...and even so, He is not dead.
"He endured it until the Supreme Heaven left his throne, and then finally escaped to the lower world. This technique of using 'a head' to protect himself is called the 'Lion's Head Technique'."
The old Duke had obviously heard of this technique. Even know the background.
Considering his age... I'm afraid he was promoted by the Children of the Moon.
After all, at Bing Xin Gong's age, if he didn't step into the twilight path, his deadline would be within the next few years. He is an old man who has experienced the third rebellion. He is probably over a hundred years old.
If Bing Xin Gong does not want to be transformed into the Son of the Moon, they can also provide another way to prolong his life - that is, the "Lion Head Technique".
"The 'Lion Head Technique' originated from the Taichu Empire. It is called the 'Lost Head Technique', and the people who master this technique are called the 'Falling Head Clan'."
Evans was also impressed by it: "The sorcerer who uses this technique is also called the 'Flying Head Barbarian' - its feature is that the head can survive without the body and fly freely. If the 'Lost Head Technique' is not practiced well, it must return to its own body within a limited time, otherwise it will die. And they can obtain the vitality of others by sucking human blood. If the 'Lost Head Technique' is practiced to a deep level, it can even directly eat the head and take away the body of others to 'act on their behalf'.
"Although it is easy to die if you can't return to your own body, on the other hand...if you can keep 'sucking blood' to keep your blood vigorous, you won't die immediately.
"The Swan King is stuck between 'death and life'. The Sons of the Moon placed his head in a blood box to provide a constant supply of fresh blood... and for a Count of the Son of the Moon, it is a very reasonable need for him to store blood.
"--Therefore, no one would suspect that he would use this blood for other things.
"For example, use this blood to nourish the head of a former king."
