pain...
A splitting headache.
"I am..."
"Have you fainted..."
I do not know how long it has been.
When Lin An opened his eyes again, he felt as if his brain was about to explode, and his face turned pale in pain.
After hurriedly getting up from the ground, looking at the familiar system light ball above his head and the quiet exchange hall around him, Lin An suddenly realized that he seemed to have survived.
How long has passed! ?
Subconsciously, Lin An looked up at the system timer. After seeing the numbers clearly, Lin An suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he was not unconscious for a long time, probably less than fifteen minutes passed.
He was afraid that he would be unconscious for too long, causing Hei Di and others to find out the problem and break in.
Rubbing his eyebrows with some difficulty, Lin An pulled off his mask, and then he was able to think about what happened to him.
It was as if his memory was broken.
Whether it was the burned past or the shattered present, he just felt that his memory had become a mess and he had no idea what happened.
"Start after the battle is over..."
"The burning cost of the Flame of Time is too high..."
"After I forced myself to come back, I kept looking for ways to replenish my soul. At that time, my memory was already blurred."
"It's just that it seems difficult to find a way to replenish the soul..."
With his eyes flashing, Lin An tried hard to recall what happened before.
He vaguely remembered hearing many failed inquiries.
"What happened to me after that?"
"Did the system find a solution after I passed out?"
“Did I redeem things instinctively, or did the system automatically redeem them?”
His brows were furrowed. To put it mildly, he had fainted. If he hadn't been alive now, Lin An would have actually felt that the moment he fainted, it actually meant his death.
He spent too much time burning, or in other words, the cost of killing a star-destroying star was much higher than he had imagined before!
"Did I redeem it myself?"
"What did I exchange for?"
He looked at the light ball with some confusion, and then at his hands.
People in coma have instinctive reactions.
Although Lin An knew that in the state he was in at that time, there was a high probability that he could not do anything. He had lost consciousness, and it was unlikely that he could still redeem life-saving items by himself.
but...
Maybe it's because of his strong will, just like a vegetative person who can actually move.
His belief in survival controls his body and exchanges things in an almost instinctive way. Is this not impossible?
If the system found something within a few seconds after he fell into coma, might he still have consciousness at that time? It's just that he can't remember.
His brows were furrowed.
After reminiscing for a long time, no matter how hard Lin An tried to recall, he only felt that the memory was blank.
After a while, Lin An had no choice but to give up and simply treat it as what he had guessed.
How he exchanged it at that time is no longer important. What matters is what he exchanged and what he will do next!
"No matter... I did it myself anyway."
"It's impossible that the Black Emperor broke in and secretly exchanged it for me, right?"
After laughing at himself, Lin An's expression turned solemn and he looked directly at his system panel.
He had nothing in his hands.
There is nothing inside the ring either.
The double disintegration of soul and time, not even the recovery of points can save the slightest bit.
This means that the way he survived was not by exchanging some props, but by directly causing changes to his body.
Lin An was curious about what he had changed.
If he remembered correctly, the system initially gave him things that could save him, each one sounding more awesome than the last.
After searching quickly, Lin An instantly found out how he survived in the system's exchange prompts.
-----
Two seconds later.
"Curse of the Undead?"
"curse?"
Lin An read the redemption information several times, and then he was shocked to find that he actually survived by relying on the curse.
incredible..
Looking at the description on the system panel, he felt like his scalp was numb.
Damn it, he doesn't even count as alive now!
A piece of good news, a piece of strange news.
The good news is that he can now talk, jump, and kill, just like he is alive.
The bad news is.
He was just no different from being alive.
"Curse of the Undead: Special, Cursed Products"
"Prop effect: After use, it launches a curse attack on the target, cursing it to never be reincarnated. After the effect is generated, it will cause a locking effect on targets below level seven. After the cursed person dies, he will inevitably enter the world of the dead and cannot Resurrected, reversed, read, written, overwritten by any ability..."
"Under the effect of the curse, the target's soul after death will be forced to gather together, ignoring the soul splitting and soul cutting abilities."
"This effect can bring back the target's soul on any timeline in the past and future."
"Remarks: After the cursed person enters the world of the dead, he will become a sacrifice to???. If you hate someone, just use this item on him..."
"He will still be in pain after death. No one can resist in front of???"
"Remarks: After this prop is used on the target, due to the special effect of gathering souls, it will provide the target with a basic soul strengthening effect after use."
...
"Player name: Lin An"
"Current status: Soul decomposition"
"Warning: Part of your soul has entered the realm of the dead. Under the effect of the curse, your soul will disintegrate every once in a while, spilling more fragments into the realm of the dead."
"Warning: Your soul no longer belongs to you, so you cannot restore it."
"Warning: The current soul integrity is 99.97%. For every 3% reduction in soul integrity, all your abilities will be affected. When the soul integrity drops below 50%, you will lose your self-concept."
"Warning: When your constitution drops below 1000 points, you will immediately lose control of your soul, and your soul will rapidly disintegrate. Current constitution (1001)"
...
The two pieces of information need to be viewed together.
Looking at the description of the cursed item and his current state, Lin An tried hard to analyze it for several seconds before he realized what had happened to him.
"This is really... outrageous..."
A wry smile.
Lin An felt that this situation was both unbelievable and natural.
In fact, it was impossible for him to survive.
The fourth level kills the fifth level, but still kills a destroying star. Such an incredible record should not exist at all.
So naturally, such a horrific miracle requires an unimaginable price.
To put it bluntly, it is extremely outrageous for him, Lin An, to exchange one life for another. If the Red Devil of Gur could still speak, he would definitely rant about the injustice of the system!
He is a star-destroying man, and his life is thousands of times higher than Lin An's! ! What does it matter if Lin An pays the price with his life! ?
It's just like an ordinary person committing suicide can be replaced by a fourth-level person. This is really unfair.
"To put it simply, after I burn out my time, not only will I die, but I will die with nothing left, and I will even owe a bunch of things... Just because I am dead, I can't pay the price."
"In this case, if I want to restore my soul, it means I have to spend the price of a star-destroying life to restore it."
"It's like I kill the target with a life-consuming blow, and my health points are reduced to -9999. If I want to restore my blood, I naturally have to buy a bottle of blood medicine that can restore 9999 blood points to be even."
"Obviously, I can't afford it, so the system never finds what I'm looking for."
There was a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.
Lin An looked at the words in the warning that his soul no longer belonged to him, and felt mixed emotions in his heart.
This is a very long, complicated, and weird piece of logic.
Yes, it was impossible for him to restore his soul and save his life.
So how does he survive now?
The answer is simple.
Under the curse.
He sold his life to death.
Then he cheated and stopped selling.
