"How did he survive for so long?" Alyssa couldn't help but ask.
This is also a question for Irina and Sharon.
With only a hundred years to live, Alberisi has clearly surpassed the limits of human beings.
"I don't know the specific method."
Rean shook his head and sighed. Even if you see the truth through the "Moon Mirror" and listen to the enemy say a lot of things, it is impossible to cover everything.
"I only know that this is a special ability or technology that Albelisi has."
"Is it related to that person not leaving a body?" Irina suddenly said this.
"Yes." Rean nodded.
"Wait a minute!" Alyssa slapped the coffee table, "How come there's no body left? Why don't I know?"
"Because the eldest lady was still young at the time, so-" Sharon explained.
"Then you shouldn't hide it from me. Even if I was still young at the time, you can tell me in a few years." Alyssa said dissatisfied.
"Tell you, what can you do?"
Irina asked calmly, her attitude was not like that of her daughter, nor did she mention her husband, but two strangers.
"No matter what I can do or not, you shouldn't hide it from me. I am your daughter and I have the right to know!" Alyssa argued.
"Maybe he doesn't regard you as his daughter, nor does he regard me as his wife. If what Rean said is true, a person who has lived for a thousand years and has been striving for the same goal may have lost his emotions long ago."
"ah……"
With one sentence, the situation that was developing towards a quarrel was cooled down.
Yes, thousands of years of life and experience.
How can a marriage and family relationship that lasts for a few years or more than a dozen years compare to that?
"Alyssa, President Irina, don't rush to a conclusion yet. Living a long life does not necessarily mean that you will lose your humanity. The leader of the witches, Roselia, has also lived for eight hundred years. She has not lost her humanity. On the contrary, We value feelings more than many people. But, Albelisi’s situation is indeed a bit special——"
With the same sentence, Alyssa's mood, which had improved, sank again.
Albelisi is different from Roselia.
The latter means immortality, eternal youth, and the ability to live younger and younger.
Albelisi's immortality has limits. He is more like a program installed in goblin genetics, or a personality parasite parasitic in goblin blood.
Choose a suitable descendant and operate it step by step. First, it will influence his behavior unconsciously and let him develop in a certain direction. When the time is right, he will "awaken" from the descendant, replace the descendant and become Albelisi, and Receive everything that descendants accumulate.
In this way, Alberisi has had many identities over the millennia.
He once went to Crossbell and stole the artificial human technology from the alchemist of Korois.
He once taught the magician in the Dark Ages the "Magic Huangbing" technology and promoted its development.
He once gave weapons to a top-notch Chasseur Regiment to obtain combat information.
He once joined the Thirteenth Workshop and became the first disciple of Schmidt, Epstein's favorite disciple. He eventually married a lady from the Leinfort family, the world's largest heavy industry manufacturer, and had a daughter - Asia. Lisa's father, Franz Leinfurter.
These identities are all independent, with different names, looks, backgrounds, and experiences.
The only thing they have in common is that they are experts in related fields, they are all descendants of goblins, and they were chosen as carriers by Albelisi.
They lived different lives, met different people, and experienced different lives, until at a certain moment, Albelisi woke up and was gradually eroded and replaced by him.
"So President Alyssa, President Irina. Mr. Franz's feelings for you are not false, nor did he have the idea of using you from the beginning. He was just influenced by Albelisi. And he was completely influenced by The node that Alberisi replaced, Miss Sharon, do you know which one it is?"
"It was—that night."
Sharon reacted immediately, and Rean calling her name was the best reminder.
"I went to visit Mr. Franz because of the association's mission. It was also that night, I-"
At that time, Sharon was still the "Death Line Domain" Kruger. According to the request of Dr. F. Novartis, the sixth pillar of the association's apostle, she entered the Leinforte house disguised as a maid and met with one of the members of the "Thirteenth Workshop" Franz contacted and took away the research results agreed upon by both parties.
The cooperation between the two parties had been very pleasant before, and Sharon thought it would be a very ordinary task.
Franz promised well at first, but suddenly changed his mind mid-sentence.
"That's my pseudonym. I also have a real name. The name that has been passed down for thousands of years and is the servant of a giant existence - the time has come. It's great that you chose to show up at this time. I refuse to hand over the research results to you. , feel free to grab it."
Then a strange mechanical sphere was summoned, and the fight really started.
Sharon's state at that time was that she only knew how to complete the task and did not act as a puppet for him.
If you hit me, I can only fight back.
After the First World War, the laboratory was destroyed, Sharon was seriously injured and dying, and Franz died.
Taking this as an opportunity, Sharon and Irina entered into a contract.
Looking back, that battle was indeed full of doubts.
Inconsistent dialogue, and Franz's display of fighting prowess.
Sharon is a master who can compete with A-level guerrillas and has strong strength. Franz is shown in the data to be a weak researcher. Even with all kinds of magical equipment and assistance, what about combat experience? Where does this come from?
There are also weird behaviors during the battle, sometimes extremely violent, really wanting to kill people, sometimes showing mercy at all times, and even deliberately sending swords to the edge, which is more contradictory than the dialogue.
If this were not the case, Sharon would not only be seriously injured, but would directly die.
Just because people died and everything was gone, so even if there was an abnormality, Sharon didn't think much about it - after all, he was really dead, not a fake death, and more than one person had confirmed it.
It wasn't until this time that someone suspected of Franz appeared that the lingering doubts were lifted again.
Resurrection of the dead.
Normally it would be a fantasy, but the goblins just have such technology in their hands.
"Immortal" - a special state formed after the initiator dies in battle and is resurrected with the recovery of the Riding God.
The existence form was fixed at the moment before death. This is how the Hunter King came back to life. Moreover, the goblin used a special method to make a contract after death to resurrect.
Although Albelisi does not have a riding god, he is the leader of the goblins and a lackey of Ishmag, allowing his personality to continue to be passed down in the goblin bloodline. Whether you rely on Black's power or your own skills, it's normal to develop non-activator undead skills.
Franz's appearance was exactly the same as ten years ago, and his final disappearance was consistent with the characteristics of an immortal.
Simply considering research, immortals are more convenient than humans. They don't have to worry about illness and aging, and they don't have to worry about accidental harm to themselves through research. They can also take the opportunity to escape from Leinfort.
Isn't it beautiful to achieve multiple things with one stone?
PS: Rean is the comeback of Badend. I don’t know that to fully inherit the personality of a goblin, he needs to die once. And this Badend actually has a lot of things that can be manipulated. Rather, it is Badend's experience that makes many of Rean's actions more interesting. I feel more and more that the entry point I chose is really great, it is simply amazing.
PS2: Maybe it’s because I’m over 30. I obviously don’t have as much energy as I did when I was in my 20s. I don’t feel like I have more time on weekends so I can do more coding. I just feel like I don’t get enough sleep.
