"eaten.:"
"again."
"Come again."
"Ah, mine, be mine soon."
"Hahaha, everything about you will belong to me right now, spirit, soul, body, everything~"
Like text message notifications that kept ringing on his cell phone, Chrollo heard the greedy sounds that kept ringing one after another in just a short period of thinking.
Elias's collective will is as powerful as a burning sharp knife cutting through butter, invincible and unstoppable. Countless collective wills are divided into countless small spiritual bodies, just like a book bag is eaten by insects and silkworms are eating mulberry leaves. The past experiences of celluloid are nibbled away one by one, swallowed densely, and carefully integrated.
After Chrollo absorbed one memory, he was involuntarily pushed to another memory place.
Snow-white walls, snow-white sheets, and gray floors. Everything in this room is pale. The girl lying on the hospital bed is also pale. The light blue hospital gown is slightly too wide and is covered like a sack. The girl looked even weaker, thinner, depressed and defeated.
The scene of the sick girl always gave Chrollo a sense of déjà vu. After searching in his memory, he remembered one thing. When he met the girl in Meteor Street, he asked Pike Notan to check the celluloid. Memory, after repeated inquiries, only one memory was obtained. The girl was seriously ill, and after struggling for life and death, she finally got rid of the disease. The whole family wept with joy. He had seen the girl lying on the hospital bed now during the search for memories.
After thinking about it, Chrollo kept some thoughts on the memory in front of him, but at the same time he was thinking divergently, trying to contact the knights and others, and at the same time, he also found out about Elias's collective will and Cellululu's current struggle. Condition.
Thanks to him being one of the collective wills of Elias, his current state can be said to be 'I think, I think, I see, I am'. From a certain perspective, he and other wills are one, although If you can't achieve a comprehensive and full thinking perspective, after all, if you do it, Chrollo will no longer exist. There will only be Elias who has all the thoughts and memories of Chrollo, but it is still feasible to temporarily substitute other wills.
When he diverged to capture other wills, he could know some of the situation of this will. At the same time, seeing the memories of Celluloid it was facing at this time, Chrollo did not stay too long, although most of the wills He has already lost himself. In a single situation, he cannot pose a threat to Chrollo when they merge with each other in an instant. However, constantly intervening in the will of others too frequently can easily lead to the collapse of his own personality. Therefore, Chrollo is very Mastering this speed well, he would just find out at the moment of contact that he was not the person he was looking for, and he would immediately break away and pounce on the next person.
As for the memories on celluloid they faced, it was not that Chrollo was not interested, but all the memories seemed to be just daily trivial matters. Even though some of the life backgrounds in the memories could be seen as somewhat magical, I think it was because The world is different, but even if Chrollo is interested in it, it is not worth risking his own disappearance to watch it, because the celluloid life in those memories is too ordinary and dull, no matter life Her experience and her personal emotions are as boring and unsurprising as boiled water. A little sadness, a little happiness, a little anger, a little distress, a little fear, ordinary people's life experiences, ordinary people's joys and sorrows, nothing worth noting. at.
Chrollo intervened in one consciousness after another, and glanced at countless celluloid memories, but gradually, he felt an indescribable strangeness, but the strangeness was so erratic that no one could find it. The source of the sense of dissonance, Chrollo, who was in a hurry to find someone, could only let the strangeness stay in his heart, slowly fermenting until it exploded.
However, Chrollo noticed another thing. The other dispersed wills did not seem to have clear shapes. Of course, it is a strange thing for the will to have a body, but before in the collective will of Elias, he Everyone else looked like light spots of light and dark. At this time, in Cellululu's spiritual world, there was a hazy, dirty black mist. Chrollo didn't know why. He is the only one who is special enough to materialize his own body. Whether it is because he still retains his self or for some other reason, he has no way of knowing at the moment. It’s just that the way the mist eats up celluloid memories is like dripping ink into water. It slowly smudges and erodes the picture. When the entire memory picture is swallowed up by the fog, it means that Elias has swallowed up another memory.
Chrollo didn't try to stop him. He was powerless. Everything he faced in this state was groping.
Chrollo captured another will, but it was not the person he was looking for. In the flash of lightning, he was still distracted and paid attention to Cellululu's memory. This time, there was a familiar figure in this memory that surprised him. The person was Yu Xiaoli, the noble noble lord whom he had met in the female world. At that time, Cellululu was very embarrassed because of him, but the next second, Chrollo rejected the answer. The person in front of him was much more immature than Yu Xiaoli. , he looked to be only around twelve or thirteen, and his expression and posture were completely different from Yu Xiaoli's. Even though he was wearing women's clothes, he didn't feel weak and submissive at all, as if he was a dodder who couldn't survive without clinging to a big tree. General.
Yes, this person who looks the same as Yu Xiaoli seems to be a woman, but Cellululu's original attitude was not like facing a sister, but more like facing a lover, but Chrollo never I thought that Celluloid would be a lily, but of course Chrollo rejected the idea of being both male and female. Celluloid’s usual words and deeds really had nothing to do with lace.
Because of this special point, Chrollo stayed for a while longer. Although this memory excluded the person who looked exactly like Yu Xiaoli but did not know whether he was a boy or a girl, it was still boring enough to make people want to yawn. Cellululu was teaching that person. When painting, he whispered instructions on how to use the brush, how to color, how to lighten and light appropriately, and how to use thick ink and heavy colors. Because the memory of eating celluloid is equivalent to becoming my own memory, so slowly along with this memory Falling into the hands of Chrollo's temporary intervention, he himself also has a clear and clear understanding of the fine brushwork mastered by Celluloid. If Chrollo is allowed to paint by himself now, I believe that it will probably only take a few years to get past the initial skill. , he can also paint very well. Of course, it is impossible to be a master, because this memory only has the initial shallow skills of traditional Chinese painting.
Realizing that the black mist had almost swallowed up the entire memory, Chrollo was about to leave, but at this moment, a bright golden light pierced the darkness, dispersing most of the gray and black almost immediately. Will, at the same time, there is an alluring greenness that is extremely warm and comfortable, stretching the vines, swaying the branches and leaves, slowly growing out of nowhere, and slowly purifying the remaining black mist.
Because the dissipation of this will immediately exposed Chrollo's distracted will. He was not wiped out like that will, and he didn't even feel the slightest bit.
'Huh? The remnants of the soul and spirit that have not been completely devoured and digested? 'This will shows majesty and majesty.
'It's you, the soul that was briefly attached to the Eye of Truth. 'This will makes people feel like a spring breeze.
But Chrollo ignored those two wills, and instead looked at the two figures that gradually appeared. Yes, figures. In the spiritual world of Celluloid, he actually saw two more physical people. Obviously Even the goddess of light and the goddess of life cannot materialize their own bodies.
'Hisoka, Illumi,' Chrollo expressed his intention of communication. At the same time, he also moved his 'original will - body' over. The celluloid on the hospital bed where the body was before 'This memory has also disappeared. Since it has to be sent to other places of memory, it is better to appear here.
'Regiment leader? I thought I would see another messy mist-like object. Should I say that he is worthy of being the leader? '
Hisoka was dressed in a clown suit, his hair was styled back with moss, and he held a playing card in one hand and gently covered his lips. His narrow phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, and he looked at the suit version of Chrollo unscrupulously, smiling frivolously. Wanton, his whole body exudes a ball of radiant golden light, full of bright majesty and justice and strictness. However, the contrast between Hisoka's image and the feeling brought by this golden light is too sharp, and it looks extremely weird.
And Illumi is not much better, although he is no longer a girl with front, back, and curvy. He is wearing a tight-fitting and easy-to-move puff-sleeved training suit. The top is full of round-head nails and has a black head. His long hair was fluttering, and his dark cat eyes were round and large, but without a trace of brilliance. He stared at Chrollo with a paralyzed expression. He was surrounded by a green warm light, which was kind and peaceful, making people feel comfortable and close. meaning. Of course, there is another contrast between the cold Illumi and the heart-warming green halo.
Chrollo showed no surprise at this, "Loraiya and Eveli are still following you, but you also have bodies." '
"Hmm~ Yes, I really miss this feeling~" Hisoka turned over his hands and changed the playing cards with some intoxication. For a while, it formed a fan shape, and then disappeared. Finally, he flipped out a clown. Card.
'Why are you here? ' Chrollo continued to ask.
"You were dragged in~" Hisoka made a mocking smile.
Eveli said she didn't believe that Celluloid could destroy the God of Destruction. After his spiritual body rushed into Cellululu's spirit, Eveli left my body and brought me in. 'Illumi's tone was quite unpleasant.
'What does that have to do with you? What can you do if you come in? Why are they still pestering you now? 'Chrollo couldn't understand it.
"It's ridiculous that they still believe in the prophecy~ The person from another world is the one who can untie the bell, and they still don't give up~" Hisoka looked uninterested.
'As long as there is a one in ten thousand chance, we will not give up. Now, all people from other worlds are in this girl's spiritual world. No matter who is the person who fulfills this prophecy, they will not miss it. 'Evely conveyed this message.
'Now, Elias is also a spiritual body. All we can do is destroy his will bit by bit and protect this girl's will from being swallowed up. 'Lolaiya is determined.
'Everyone has come in, what about the bodies outside? Except for Elias, the demon alliance is not a decoration. '
However, Chrollo had new worries. Even if the soul is the foundation, without the body, there is still nothing. He was not worried before. Firstly, it would be useless to worry. Secondly, he also felt that there were Hisoka and Illumi. If they stay outside, with the power of Luo Laiya and Eveli, it will be easy to suppress and deal with the demon coalition forces, so that even if they win in the end, they will end up with no soul to rely on.
Illumi glanced at Chrollo sideways and replied. 'Eveli and Lolea borrowed my and Hisoka's bodies to kill Chester. The black dragon was stopped by Mayside, and was beaten half to death by the three of us. Some other high-end combat powers that would affect the battle situation also We were singled out and killed, and the higher-ups should have been wiped out. Luo Laiya and Eveli also teamed up to put a protective barrier on our bodies, issued an oracle not to touch our bodies without permission, and launched a full-scale counterattack against the demon alliance. instructions, and with Mayside watching over the situation, as long as we act quickly, nothing should happen. '
Chrollo's doubts were also those of Illumi at the beginning, and although Hisoka couldn't think about that much, he wanted to leave his body in the enemy camp, and he knew that he would definitely not do it. If the two of them resisted strongly, it would be difficult for Luolai to do so. For Ya and Eveli, there was no harm at all, so Eveli and Lureya made the best arrangements possible so that Hisoka and Illumi would not rebound too much even if they were reluctant. sharp.
'Uh huh~ That's right, so I have no choice but to be put on the shelf. It's really~, it's really~, it's so frustrating~'
Hisoka's expression turned gloomy, but in the end he didn't explode, but his tone revealed a hint of resentment. He was really made to lose his temper by Luo Laiya. He couldn't defeat her even if he got angry, and he couldn't disgust her even if he was disgusted. The same thing is that she is clinging to him, and whatever she wants to do, she will do it to the end, no matter what, Hisoka really can only hope that these bullshit things will end soon, so that he can regain his freedom. ah.
Hisoka glanced at the celluloid who was wearing elegant ancient clothes and was looking down at the paintings. She was smiling and praising people.
"Lingyin, this blank space instantly enhances the artistic conception of the entire painting. Your painting skills have improved a lot."
Hisoka suddenly sighed exaggeratedly, "Oh, little Lulu's memories are so insipid. How come everything feels so insignificant and uneventful? It's boring. It's really boring. She should have lived for many years." Ah, why isn't there anything exciting or some earth-shattering secret? By the way, is this really Xiao Lulu’s spiritual world and the depth of her soul? Moreover, our will is all there, but where is little Lulu’s will? '
Like a bolt of lightning that struck his heart instantly, Hisoka's words made Chrollo suddenly enlightened. He suddenly figured out what was making him feel strange all the time. He couldn't help but give Hisoka an appreciative look.
'Well said, Hisoka, I'm actually not as sharp as you. '
'Um? Hisoka, who was praised for no reason, looked confused. Did he say anything?
Illumi moved his gaze back from Cellulu, 'Chrollo, what did you find? '
Chrollo smiled, his eyes sparkling with intelligence and excitement. 'Hisoka is right. Cellululu's memory is too bland, so bland that it doesn't look like she has experienced so many worlds. But that's all. There is a bigger flaw. Her memory is too clean. There is not a trace of noise. What you see is like a well-edited film. Everything presented is impeccable and within controllable feelings and thoughts, but this should not be the deepest impression of a person’s soul. the most real side. '
'What's the meaning? Hisoka raised an eyebrow in confusion. He didn't understand. Could it be that his IQ is not as high as Chrollo's? He would definitely not admit it.
'Stop being mysterious and make it clear. 'Illumi was more straightforward.
'Have you ever heard of a theory? A person has three selves, the id, the ego, and the superego. The id represents the most primitive desire, the self represents the external performance that is controlled by reason and is revealed after analyzing and judging the external environment, and the superego represents the more Conscience or so-called human nature under the constraints of lofty norms and morals. Although I don’t really agree with the superego’s point of view, I can’t completely deny that we are human beings and there are probably some good intentions that cannot be avoided that are not motivated by interests. . '
Chrollo explained tepidly, and said the last sentence with a hint of self-deprecation or ridicule. He noticed that Hisoka and Illumi seemed a little entangled. They didn't seem to understand much, and they couldn't relate to this. When it had something to do with celluloid, Chrollo could only helplessly slap his forehead and continue.
'To give you the simplest example, when you were hungry and cold and seriously injured, you saw a telepathic master who had saved you, who was also seriously injured and lying on the roadside. There was still food on him. At this time, what I was thinking about was 'food. I want to eat', and the ego begins to analyze, how serious your injury is, how serious his injury is, and whether you have enough chances to defeat this person and steal all his food, but the superego may think , this person was your savior, should you save him, or should you not take away all the food? '
'Why should I save him? I can't save myself, either? Since he might not survive, it was only natural that he should give me all the food. 'Illumi has no doubts about the id and ego, but he has a problem with the superego.
"Hmm~ Maybe I'll look at my mood. If he's an interesting person and a good fruit, he won't be cured, but it's okay to leave some food~" Hisoka said with a little interest.
"No, the point is not that, what I want to say is celluloid." Chrollo emphasized, "All the memories she presented to us can only be heard from her spoken words, without any expression of her heart, but this should It is impossible. A person whose thoughts and language are completely consistent cannot exist at all. So, where are those mental activities that are not commensurate with language and express her true thoughts? '
Illumi and Hisoka finally understood, and Illumi's cat eyes widened in shock.
'You mean that Celluloid's memories are all fake, fabricated to deceive Elias? Did she create another soul illusion in her mind that makes it difficult to distinguish between true and false? '
Chrollo frowned and chose his words carefully, "No, I don't think so. Her memories are mostly true, but the feelings contained in them are a little too superficial, like there is a false barrier." , Moreover, some memories that are too unspeakable and unbearable should be shielded, otherwise, we will not be able to see even a cruel memory. Moreover, I don’t think this kind of construction is easy and can be done in a short time. What she did within her, from the time Elias impacted her spirit to when we were inside, there was no time for celluloid to instantly construct such a clear, complete and coherent chain of memories. '
It was more like it had been repeatedly built and consolidated for a long time. Chrollo was silent for a while and slowly said a conjecture that he thought was a bit ridiculous but had to think so.
'She may have deceived not Elias, but herself. '
'What the leader said is so complicated. 'Hisoka's head is dizzy,' means that little Lulu created a relatively ordinary and dull memory, isolated those too intense memories, and always believed it to be true, thinking that this was the real her? '
'It's just possible. Chrollo only made bold assumptions based on these clues. To verify, it may be extremely simple, or it may not be possible. It all depends on whether the celluloid can resist the devouring of the God of Destruction.
'Has enough been said? Enough said, let's continue to eliminate the distracting will. 'This is Lolea. She is not interested at all in whether this place is real or false. Destroying the God of Destruction is all she cares about.
Eveli's will also strongly expressed this wish, so Hisoka and Illumi had to put aside all doubts and set off again, Chrollo also followed them, in case Elias suddenly had a brain twitch. I want to assimilate him, but at least there is someone I can stop.
However, Chrollo's words just now still remained in the hearts of a few people. With different thoughts, they paid attention to and felt the other memories of Celluloid one by one. Sure enough, they found something wrong, and there was nothing negative about it. There is nothing wrong with the memories of tendencies. They are happy, happy, shy, embarrassed, embarrassed, and annoyed. They are all very clear and distinct when they empathize with others. Those with a slightly negative tendency are not satisfactory. They are envious, unwilling, jealous, unhappy, sad and worried, although some It's not very clear, but I can still feel it normally, but if it's more negative, it changes instantly. It's like touching something through glass, scratching an itch, or touching a hot baking pan with gloves. Although I can still vaguely feel it, but the depth and authenticity have suddenly dropped to an extremely low limit.
Chrollo and the other three were actually a little surprised to see the Gardenia House that transformed Cellulu into the goddess of death in the last world. Logically speaking, if it is true, this memory should not appear. However, it may also be because They learned about this past event from other sources, so she accordingly created a less emotionally charged version.
I say this because the exposure to this memory from her memory did not cause the three of them to have deeper emotional fluctuations than when they watched the video, because her emotions were suppressed and were too nihilistic. She was angry and disgusted. , she was lost, she was in pain, she was angry, she was crazy, she vented, her expression was impeccable, and her feelings were indeed conveyed to them, but it just made the three of them feel that it was a little too understated, too empty, too The unreal emotional assimilation affected the three of Chrollo to the point where they were unable to even feel the anger, displeasure and pity that they should normally have.
Chrollo even saw the memories of Feitan raping and violently raping Cellululu. She struggled and cried, her expression was painful, and her eyes were angry and intense. However, these were still only on the surface. He did not feel her psychology deeply. There was also pain and hatred in the book, at least he could not indulge in the empathy. This kind of influence was not even as great as the little celluloid in the amusement park memories that made him pout in grievance.
'It's so uncomfortable. It's like being in a transparent plastic bag. It feels like there's a layer between everything. ' Hisoka muttered.
'Don't be distracted. 'Loraiya warned, she worked extremely hard to kill those distracted thoughts of Elias.
The combined strikes of Hisoka-Loraiya and Illumi-Evri were swift and domineering. However, as more and more distracted wills were eliminated, Elias was finally alerted, and he immediately mobilized a large number of The will condensed into the relatively weaker Elias distraction, and came to destroy Hisoka Lorea and Illumi Eveli.
This time it was not a one-sided massacre. Elias continued to invest a lot of willpower to strengthen the strength of the distraction when the distraction was at a disadvantage. Gradually the battle situation became evenly matched. In the end, there was even a slight tendency to surpass. Moreover, because the two Fang showed some real skills, and even set off a destructive energy vortex in this spiritual world. Memories continued to be completely shattered, revealing a pale void. As the battle situation expanded, soon, this memory was full of memories. The land became riddled with holes.
'Haha, Luo Laiya, Eveli, you are so considerate. You know that I want to devour this woman's soul, but you still come to help me. I want to thank you. ’ Elias laughed wildly.
How could Lulaiya and Eveli not see that they just couldn't control it unilaterally after the fight, and they were also angry and anxious at this time. Elias noticed this, and was even more proud, and even deliberately stopped being persistent. It's not about winning or losing, but it just pulls them to continue to destroy this spiritual world.
Finally, the entire spiritual world made a collapsing sound as if it was overwhelmed. Then, everything faded, blurred, and disappeared, and large areas of dead silence were exposed, and the speed became faster and faster. It's coming faster and faster, and in just a moment, everything here will become the same pale and empty space.
'Oops, is this spiritual world going to be completely assimilated? 'Lolaiya was filled with regret and anger.
'Haha, I really want to thank the two stupid goddesses for doing their best to contribute to my resurrection plan. 'Distracted Elias laughed and mocked, then he closed his eyes tightly, stretched out his hands, and said. 'All my distracted will, come back. '
In the pale void, countless filthy mist poured into Elias's body like a tide. His body became taller and more powerful. Even though Luo Laiya and Eveli continued to attack in anger, it still had no effect. Except for the loss of a little distraction, Elias was unscathed. When the last trace of mist was absorbed, he opened his eyes with a ferocious look and looked at Lolea and Eveli. , but before he taunted him, his eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Huh? Why are you still outside? I should be planning to swallow up all the distracted will."
Chrollo was also full of surprise at this time. Elias had withdrawn all his will just now, and he was almost assimilated and disappeared in an instant, but at the next moment, all the restraints and involuntariness suddenly disappeared, and he could clearly I feel that he is no longer controlled by Elias. Is it because of the physical relationship? Chrollo glanced sideways. Feitan, Vigilante and Jin were not swallowed up. They also had a physical form. Feitan was wearing a suit that surprised Chrollo, and Vigilante was in his usual red vest and white trousers. Jin, But his body was a little blurry, and the clothes on his body were slowly changing, including all the outfits he had worn before.
'Captain. The knight and Feitan quickly moved closer to Chrollo, and Jin also walked over. Now, six people and two remnant soul lights faced Elias together.
'Can celluloid really be eaten? Jin asked Chrollo in a low voice with some disbelief. The knight and Feitan also looked at it nervously.
'I don't know, but her will has never appeared. Anyway, there should be. Chrollo's face was extremely dark and he could only hold on to this point.
Hisoka's expression was tense, and Illumi frowned. They looked around at the empty space that had completely turned into a pale and dead silence, and finally looked at Elias. He had recovered from his previous surprise, and it seemed that he did not appear immediately. Just deal with them.
'Hehehe, hahaha, this body is mine, you can just watch here and watch how I destroy this world. Elias laughed loudly and wanted to take over the body.
'Stop him! 'Eveli was anxious.
Elias glanced at them contemptuously, but after a while, his smile suddenly solidified.
'what happened? Why can't I get out? Didn't I swallow this woman? what happened? "
Several people looked at Elias with some surprise as he suddenly moved around like a trapped animal. They didn't know what he was doing. But then, Chrollo had a flash of realization, and his guess was probably correct. of.
As a god who understands the profoundness of will and spirit, Elias quickly discovered the problem after the initial irritation, and he roared with a ferocious expression.
'Damn it, it's actually a mirror spirit! Fake, it’s fake! How dare you lie to me, you have to pay the price! I want to devour you completely! '
His body suddenly swelled countless times, completely ignoring the laws of space, and suddenly began to bite like crazy, grabbing the pale background vigorously. Of course, Evely and Luo Laiya would not just sit idly by, but Alya Si had already put all his attention into it. At this time, no one could stop him. He once again released a distraction to deal with them, while he concentrated on continuing to tear apart.
What's surprising is that Elias actually tore out a big hole. There was a thin layer of blue light behind the hole. His eyes lit up and he reached out to break the blue light again. The blue light was released. With the heat that burned people's souls, Elias gritted his teeth and held his breath, sacrificing countless wills to tear out an extremely tiny hole in the blue light. As soon as Elias saw it, he became even more energetic and kept going. The ground tore hard, and finally, the small holes turned into small cracks, and the small cracks turned into cracks, and then, from behind the cracks, a gust of wind blew out.
The wind, cold and cold, like a knife, gently swirled at the exit of the gap. Suddenly, like an explosion, it made a shrill and sharp sound like a woman's whine, and then it shot out everywhere. The thin blue light struck, Elias saw it, and followed the destruction outside. Under the attack from the two parties, the blue light flashed, and a gorgeous blue flower suddenly bloomed, and then withered and shattered. , the blue light barrier disappeared, and the pale background suddenly disappeared.
Unable to temper themselves, as if falling into an infinite abyss, everyone suddenly fell into darkness, pitch blackness, and boundless chaos. This space was not stable. The violent energy field kept tearing apart, and the space violently shook. Turbulence, tremors, large cracks, collapses and twists, strong winds that can tear the human body apart in an instant, swirling and whistling, making a sharp sound like a woman shouting, like a painful cry, a sharp scream, a shrill cry, like A loudspeaker-like, almost roaring noise resounded through the area, shaking Chrollo and the others almost out of their minds instantly.
