Chapter 171 Lost Identity
Because there was just a trace of the clone, the reward given by the system to Xiao Ye could only be regarded as better than nothing.
Not only that, the opponent's divine power was not deprived by the Sword of Dusk and Dawn.
After all, it is not the real body!
At the last moment, this clone of Caldora knew that it was dead, so it blew itself up to let the incomplete consciousness escape. As long as this incomplete consciousness could escape from this void world, it would be able to feedback the situation here to the main body.
Unfortunately, Xiao Ye saw its intention and instantly froze the space, not giving it a chance to escape!
After handling everything, Xiao Ye immediately withdrew from this void world. He didn't want to stay any longer. If he bumped into another god, it would be troublesome. A trace of Caldora's clone forced him to use most of his methods. , if a complete god came, the scene would be unimaginable.
Even with the Sword of Dusk and Dawn, Xiao Ye is very sure that he is no match for a real god!
The gods are not just talking!
There was no obstacle to his return this time, and Xiao Ye's consciousness returned to his body smoothly.
"What's going on with you?" As soon as he returned to his body, Liuli's voice rang in Xiao Ye's ears, with a hint of anxiety in his voice: "You almost had a problem with your body just now. If it weren't for the protection of all things, The words of the sword."
"I'll tell you later." Xiao Ye comforted Liuli and turned to look at the other residents. From them, Xiao Ye felt something was wrong.
He hadn't noticed it before, but now because he had just exited from the divine state, he noticed something was wrong the moment he saw these residents. Their bodies seemed to have been infected by the breath of death!
"Succeeded! I just said he would succeed!"
"That's what I said, okay!"
"Fart, that's what I said!"
Seeing that Xiao Ye was fine, all the residents cheered instantly. This belief ceremony is not without danger. The consequence of failure of belief is to lose one's life!
The mayor did not explain this to Xiao Ye, because this town has not produced new believers for a long time!
"Mayor, I have a question for you." Xiao Ye came to the mayor and whispered.
"Huh? If you have any questions, just ask. We are all a family!" The mayor seemed to be in a good mood. He patted Xiao Ye on the shoulder and said kindly.
"Do people in our town get sick often?"
In fact, the mayor no longer needs to answer this question. Xiao Ye has already obtained the answer from other residents. Due to the infection of the air of death, the physical fitness of every resident here is far inferior to that of normal people. It can be seen that their average Lifespan won't be that high either.
This is probably why this town has such a sparse population.
If things go according to normal circumstances, in a few decades, everyone in this town will definitely die. Even if they can give birth to children, the children will not be born very good, and the probability of death is very high!
They prayed to the morning gods day and night, but the responses they received contained the aura of death. Moreover, combined with what the mayor said before, Xiao Ye had a guess. Even if someone actually accepted the belief ceremony, there was a high probability that they would all fail. The undead creature can't wait any longer. If it wants to revive, it must kill people. It cannot move the residents of this town, otherwise there will be no one to attract new believers for it.
Whenever a new believer comes to perform a belief ritual, he will be pulled into that void world to be killed, accelerating its recovery!
Even if a believer dies, it seems to be a normal thing to outsiders. The ritual failed because you did not believe in the gods enough. It is all your own fault!
Just like Xiao Ye, as soon as the faith ceremony began, he was pulled into the void. If he hadn't had the Sword of Dusk and Dawn, he would have become the nourishment for the opponent's recovery.
The residents in the town were not murderers, but accomplices. Even if they did not mean it, those people lost their lives because of them.
The aura of death in the bodies of these residents has been deeply ingrained. Even if Xiao Ye wanted to help them exorcise it, he could not do it. In addition, the gods of dusk and dawn have completely fallen. Without a response from the gods, death will come faster for them.
Xiao Ye could help them extend the time for the death energy to explode, but after thinking about it, Xiao Ye did not do so. Everyone here is entangled with countless grievances, which are left by those who died. Xiao Ye I don't want to be involved in this.
"Oh, yes, I don't know why. People in small towns get sick easily. Many doctors were invited to see them, but they couldn't find the cause of the illness!" The mayor sighed and continued: "Some doctors are not even willing to come. We come here as if there is a demon that devours people!"
Xiao Ye smiled bitterly in his heart. It is estimated that those doctors have already noticed that something is wrong here. If people in this world have gods they believe in, those gods may have warned their believers not to interfere in the affairs here.
Even people who don’t know what’s going on here, no matter how powerful they are, can’t find the source of the illnesses of these residents. If the air of death is not eliminated, the disease will not leave, let alone the air of death in their bodies that has already interacted with them. Become one.
"This is not like a simple infection, but more like a mark." Xiao Ye felt the death gas in the bodies of the people around him and found that the content of the death gas in everyone's body was actually exactly the same. After all, Xiao Ye didn't believe it.
But what is its purpose in doing this?
Xiao Ye thought about the sinful world he saw and the endless innocent souls of the dead in it. Will these people's souls be absorbed by the sinful world after death? Is the death energy in their bodies just a mark?
Xiao Ye guessed for a long time and felt that his guess was not wrong, but there were some parts that he couldn't figure out due to insufficient clues.
After chatting with the mayor for a long time, the mayor saw that it was getting dark and asked everyone to return to their homes quickly.
"What's going on?" Xiao Ye asked.
"It is the custom of the town that you cannot go out at night, and you cannot open the door at will. All doors and windows must be closed!" The mayor explained, and at the same time he took Xiao Ye to a room: "There is no time, so you will stay here tonight. , I’ll give you a new one tomorrow.”
After making arrangements for Xiao Ye, he hurried towards his home.
"Something's wrong. Do you want me to follow you and take a look?" Liuli looked at the mayor's retreating figure and asked.
"No need, even if something happens, it can't escape our awareness." Xiao Ye shook his head, closed all the doors and windows in the house, and then turned on the stove.
"Today's faith ceremony, I encountered a very strange thing." Xiao Ye told Liuli everything about the void world, but the existence of the system and the ability of the Sword of Dusk and Dawn were explained away by his words.
"The gods are a very special kind of existence." Liuli pondered for a moment, then said: "In fact, the intersection between our world and the void world is not very big, it can even be said that there is no intersection at all. The void world also has living beings, and the void gods If you want to develop believers, you will spread your faith in the void world, and few gods come to our world to spread their faith."
"Why?" Xiao Ye asked curiously. He has never been able to understand this question. The number of creatures in the world is really too great. For these void gods, don't they like this kind of place the most? But Xiao Ye rarely saw records of void gods in Wanyu.
There is no explanation for this in the message conveyed by the Sword of Dusk and Dawn.
"It is said that a long time ago, four gods came from the void world and wanted to spread their faith in the world, but they were beaten back by a sword, a gun, a knife, and a fist. Since then, there have been no gods in the entire world. information."
Xiao Ye thought about his chin. Is there really such a being in Wanyu that can rival the gods? He inexplicably thought of Lost trapped in the Lost Land. How high is Lost's strength compared to the gods?
"You watch for a while, I'll go find an old friend." Xiao Ye called out the All-Things Guarding Sword: "If there is anything unusual, just guard it!"
Liuli nodded and didn't ask Xiao Ye what he was doing.
Xiao Ye once again entered the world of analyzing the divine pupil.
At this time, it was lost and sleeping soundly. It had already understood its situation. It could not escape just by relying on its own clone. Instead of struggling, it would be better to lie down.
"Why are you here again?" When it saw Xiao Ye, it glanced at him lazily and asked casually: "Do you miss me?"
"She Sailingya, do you know this person?" Xiao Ye was too lazy to talk nonsense and asked directly.
"She Sai Lingya?" Lost turned over and thought for a moment: "I have an impression that he is some kind of god. He came to trouble me at first, but I punched him back."
"Do you really recognize it?" Xiao Ye had a face full of disbelief and looked up and down. This bird-like figure is really the legendary strongman who can defeat gods with one punch.
"What's that look in your eyes?" He glanced at Xiao Ye with disappointment and dissatisfaction: "Back then, I was the invincible fighter in the world. Wherever I went, no one could be my enemy with one punch!"
Seeing that he wanted to continue talking, Xiao Ye quickly slipped out and told himself to avoid dealing with him in the future. There must be something wrong with his brain!
"Why are you back so soon?" Liuli asked in surprise when she saw Xiao Ye coming back.
"I met a psychopath." Xiao Ye complained: "Do you know the names of those people who defeated the gods in the legend?"
"I don't remember very clearly." Liuli shook her head: "But there seems to be one that I have some impression of. It seems to be some kind of Lost Lord. I don't know what his name is."
