Chapter 913: Interception
As the six-faced elephant deer uttered its last words full of grief and indignation, and fell on its back without moving, the huge world of death seemed to have received some kind of signal, and the whole world fell into an extremely strange "stillness".
The gray mist that permeated outside the Gate of the Dead stopped floating, and the crows that flew up from the Death Crow's Nest stagnated in the air. The Yellow Spring that rolled endlessly all year round stopped flowing completely, and countless dead people also solidified on the road of no return that meandered to the deepest part of the dead world.
In Leon's perception, the death that was countless times more stubborn than time and never stopped for anyone actually stopped for a very short moment, and then condescended to bend down its huge body and cast a scrutinizing look at itself.
Is this the feeling of being chosen by the power of death...
Unconsciously looking up at the sky, and after "looking" at the non-existent tall figure, Leon faintly had an extremely wonderful illusion.
At this moment, his soul seemed to fall into the bottom of the dead world, becoming the leak of a huge "funnel", and the solidified dead world, driven by a certain will, began to "collapse" towards him.
"Zizi..."
Accompanied by the familiar harsh noise, [Materialism], which had been lying quietly in the badge panel and firmly occupied the first slot, suddenly bloomed with an extremely dazzling red brilliance.
[The current immersion value has exceeded 60 points, and the ability to contact and initially master the rules has been obtained. The hidden characteristics of the heterochromatic badge "Materialist Soul" have been activated]
[Materialist Soul (Red): As a firm materialist, you firmly believe that matter is the basis of objective existence, and spiritual and conscious phenomena are all products of matter. Things that cannot be understood are all due to the fact that your understanding of the world is not accurate and profound enough...]
[Wearing effect: ...]
[Advanced route: has reached the highest level and cannot be advanced further]
[Hidden characteristics: Whenever the understanding of the core rules of a world reaches a certain level, you will gain the ability to transform it to a corresponding degree.
Current analysis progress (arranged by level of understanding): the present world (15%), the dead world (12%), the dream world (9%), the abyss (1.5%)... the star world (0.1%), the old land (0.1%)]
"Zizi..."
[You passively accepted the injection from the power of death, and your understanding of the dead world has been improved...]
[You are gradually understanding death...]
"Zizi..."
[Since the understanding of death by the living cannot reach 50%, the analysis progress is suspended. The current analysis progress of the dead world is 4 9.9%]
[The power of death is continuing to tilt towards you]
[The "living" part of you from the present world is being covered by the power of death. After the coverage is completed and you are completely transformed into the dead... an abnormal situation has occurred, the power of death is being diverted, and the speed of coverage is decreasing]
"?!"
After hearing the prompt that the coverage has stopped, Leon, who was closing his eyes and looking up to accept the "baptism" and preparing to temporarily take over the mess of the dead world, was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to think of something and turned back subconsciously.
In Leon's astonished gaze, a figure that he was very familiar with was standing next to the Gate of the Dead at this moment, and took the initiative to accept the gaze of the majestic "eyes".
"Wait!!!"
Feeling the power of death tilting towards Emma, Leon couldn't help but suddenly feel a tug in his heart, wanting to interrupt her behavior of actively entering death to prevent her from being left in the dead world.
However, the dead world without the Lord of the Dead World has entered a state of complete shutdown. Before the new Lord of the Dead World appeared, it was almost a huge piece of amber. As a mosquito frozen in it, Leon even had no chance to move.
What's more terrible is that although Leon swallowed almost all the Lords of the Dead World, as a living person who has never really experienced death, his understanding of the power of death is not very profound.
But Emma not only has the blood of blurring life and death, but also is a dead person who has returned to the world from the road of no return. As a person who has successfully comprehended the existence of the power of death when she was "alive", she is much closer to death than Leon.
If she didn't stand up, Leon, who swallowed the most deaths, would smoothly take over the power of death by attracting "quantity", and now that she has stood up, the power of death will naturally begin to instinctively lean towards the real dead.
Damn it! I should have sent her back earlier!
After finding out that he might not be able to win against Emma, Leon's face suddenly turned pale, and a strong regret emerged in his heart.
Although he seemed to be indifferent when he was mocking the six-faced elephant deer just now, and threatened to shoot him at most, it does not mean that the shot can be fired casually.
No mistakes, one sentence, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
Not to mention that to "kill" the dead, you must consume the same level of "ammunition", and you can't just revive it at will. Just looking at the chaotic situation in the dead world, the person who took over the power of death will definitely be firmly tied to the dead world.
You know, all the masters of the dead world have been killed by me, and it is unknown how long it will take for the next existence that can comprehend death to emerge, but the dead world must have someone to preside over the power of death, so that it will not be completely shut down like it is now.
This means that even if there is a way to return to the real world, it is likely that the first shot will take a long time to fire. If you are unlucky enough, it is not impossible to wait for hundreds or thousands of years at a time.
If I take this job, I may be able to rely on the badges I will get in the future to find a way to run back to the real world in advance, but if Emma takes over, she doesn't know how long she will have to wait here.
"Emma!"
After glaring at a shrinking old man with annoyance, Leon knew that he must have instigated this matter. He couldn't help but look grim, and then gnashed his teeth and shouted from a distance:
"Don't listen to that old man's nonsense! I have a way to return to the real world in advance, and you don't need to replace me! Stop!"
After hearing Leon's call, Emma's figure in the distance couldn't help but shake slightly, and then stopped "looking at" death itself, lowered her head and looked at this side softly.
After receiving that gentle look, Leon immediately understood what she meant. Emma was telling him that taking over the power of death for him and sitting in the dead world was a choice she made willingly. He didn't need to feel guilty, let alone stop her.
And Leon knew her character very well. For Emma, who looked gentle and beautiful on the outside but was extremely tough on the inside, once she really made a choice, no matter how much he persuaded her, it would be useless. She would definitely try her best to the end.
Damn it! Damn the third generation old man!
