Both Tata Kai and Yi Mata were sure that the tattooed man was an undead.
Angor asked them if they knew the difference between an undead and an undead.
Their answers also showed that they knew the definition of undead.
According to what they said, they also thought that the tattooed man was a dead spirit at first. The reason was that the tattooed man had said a lot of things to them when he saw them … Although they couldn't understand his language, since the tattooed man could speak and express himself, it meant that he might have a mind of his own.
Only an undead would have a mind of its own, not an undead.
However, when the tattooed man began to attack them, they immediately realized something was wrong.
The tattooed man's ability was filled with dense negative energy. When the tattooed man approached them, they could also sense the chaotic and negative energy coming from him.
Only undead could use negative energy to attack! Undead could not use negative energy. In fact, negative energy was like poison to them. Once they touched it, they would quickly turn into an undead.
Therefore, the tattooed man was definitely an undead!
At least, in their eyes, he was an undead.
As for why the tattooed man could "speak", they didn't know. Maybe he wasn't speaking logical words, but some meaningless undead gibberish.
However, that was then, and this was now.
Back then, they really believed that the tattooed man was an undead. But now, Tata Kai and Yi Mata hesitated.
The tattooed man was sitting in the hall. He didn't show any aggression, nor did he release any undead energy. His eyes were clear, as if he had a mind of his own.
Although he would occasionally get angry when he looked at Hongma Mata, it was only directed at Hongma Mata.
This was obviously different from the undead's desire to attack indiscriminately.
Maybe …
The tattooed man was an undead in the outside world, but he regained his mind inside the Dream Crystal?
Angor didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Tata Kai and Yi Mata's speculation. If the Dream Crystal could help an undead regain their sanity so easily, it would solve a problem that had been bothering the worlds for countless years.
Even the special bullets from Prelude to Rebirth might not be able to save an undead.
Just the act of entering the Dream Crystal was comparable to the effects of Secret Treasures and Mystery Items? Angor did not buy it.
Also, he had done similar experiments before. Undead creatures couldn't regain their sanity in the dream wasteland. This was because their intellect had been assimilated and contaminated by the negative energy. Only by dealing with the contaminated intellect could they proceed to the next step.
So why did the tattooed man appear to be sober now?
Angor believed that the old man was an undead spirit himself.
As for why Tatakai and Yi Mata could sense the negative energy from him? He could not figure it out either. Maybe he was mistaken?
Or could it be that the tattooed man happened to be in a depraved state? It had a certain level of intelligence and a certain level of negative energy in its body?
However, there was no need to think too much about this for the time being.
Since the tattooed man had shown his rational side in the Dream Crystal, he would be able to find out the answer by asking him later.
Now, back to the main topic.
Tatakai and the others had told him everything that had happened in the ruins. However, in their narration, there were still many points that made people feel puzzled.
The most suspicious point was — —
After the two vice-captains were killed by the tattooed man, what did Red Gemata do?
Why did the tattooed man become part of Red Gemata's undead crystal?
Everyone was curious about these two questions as well. When Angor asked them, they all looked at Red Gemata.
Since they could not understand the tattooed man's language, they had to ask the other party.
However, in the face of everyone's questions, Red Sigma Mata put on a troubled expression. "This, this …"
"Actually, I forgot about it too."
The spirit looked at Red Gemata through the open window. "You forgot about it? Or you don't want to tell us?"
Red Gemata bitterly said, "I really forgot. I only remember that Tatakai and Yi Mata were killed by him. Looking at their corpses, I was very angry. Then, I rushed towards him …"
The spirit leaned forward. "And then?"
Red Gemata shook his head. "I don't remember anything else. I don't remember anything else. The last thing I remember is … I killed myself. "
The Red Gemata actually committed suicide?!
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other in dismay, feeling incomparably surprised.
After they digested the news, the giant city spirit continued to ask, "Do you still remember the reason for the suicide?"
Red Gemata shook his head. "I don't remember. I only remember that I was determined to die."
Hearing this, Jota seemed to have thought of something. With a thoughtful look in his eyes, he tapped the ground with his cane. "Is there such a possibility …"
With the sound of the cane hitting the ground and Jota intentionally raising his voice, he instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"So Red Gemata found out that the tattooed man entered his body and had to kill himself?"
As for why the tattooed man entered Red Gemata's body? Maybe he wanted to take over Red Gemata's body? Or maybe he wanted to do something harmful to Red Gemata's body?
In short, the final result was that Sigma Mata committed suicide with a strong determination to die. Using his body as a prison, he trapped the tattooed man's soul.
Everyone could understand Jota's guess, and they were inclined to agree with it.
However, this was still just a general guess. From the main point of view, there was a certain logic to it. But in terms of the details, there was nothing at all, and it could not stand up to scrutiny.
For example, Red Gemata used the Sacred Corpse Crystal as a prison to trap the tattooed man's soul. Red Sigma Mata felt that this made sense, but he also made it clear that he did not have such an ability.
So, how did the tattooed man get trapped? Why did he enter Red Gemata's body? It was still a mystery.
Jota sighed. "Looks like we have to start with the tattooed man."
Jota looked at the tattooed man. Although he was cautious, his eyes were clear. As one of the people involved, he must know something.
The tattooed man noticed Jota's gaze. He narrowed his eyes and asked softly, "Why are you looking at me? You look like an accomplice of the grave robbers! "
The tattooed man was obviously talking, and he was talking to her. Unfortunately, Jota did not understand.
"If only I knew what he was talking about." Jota sighed. He suddenly paused as if he had thought of something.
Jota turned to look at the giant city spirit. "I remember that Ten Thousand Bends Tower is proficient in linguistics? Why don't we let him take a look? "
Ten Thousand Bends Tower was one of the 100 geniuses who had entered the Dream Crystal. Before he went into hibernation, he was a political scientist and diplomat. Before he joined the Elders, he had studied linguistics.
The giant city spirit said, "Ten Thousand Bends Tower has indeed studied linguistics. However, it's basically the languages of the other races nearby."
Although the other races spoke their own languages, they were all native languages of the Mirror Domain. However, this tattooed man did not seem to be from the Mirror Domain.
Jota knew that he was desperate, but he could not think of any other way. At least, Ten Thousand Bends Tower had studied linguistics. He might be able to understand the tattooed man's language.
In the end, the giant city spirit was convinced to let Evda go outside to find Ten Thousand Bends Tower.
While waiting for Ten Thousand Bends Tower to arrive, everyone analyzed the tattooed man in low voices. They tried to guess his origins and determine his language.
However, after much analysis, they still felt that the tattooed man was human.
However, his language was completely different from the common language.
Jota rubbed his temples and sighed helplessly. "If only I could use my Soul Sorcerer ability here."
Soul Sorcerer was a supernatural class belonging to the Mirror Race. They could control the minds of others and draw special runes. No matter which race they belonged to or what language they spoke, they would be able to understand the meaning of these runes.
The runes represented the language of the soul.
The language of the soul was common to all intelligent races.
Unfortunately, even if a Soul Sorcerer entered the Dream Crystal, they would not be able to use their Soul Language because they could not use their Soul Language.
Speaking of Soul Abilities … Spirit Bond could also be considered a Soul Ability.
However, the Spirit Bond was only used to "connect" others, not "communicate".
Otherwise, he could also try to talk to the tattooed man by bypassing the language barrier.
…
While they were discussing, the tattooed man sitting across from them suddenly began to move.
He seemed to be restless and kept looking back as if he was looking for something.
His actions attracted the attention of the crowd.
"What's he doing?" someone asked in a low voice.
"Who knows? Maybe he's looking for a target and is about to start a massacre." It was one of Red Matta's teammates. They once collected the bodies of Red Matta and his two vice-captains. They did not have any conflicts with the tattooed man, but they were still wary of him.
"I think he's looking at Yuduoda … Don't tell me he's attracted by Sister Yuduoda's appearance? Damn it, Sister Yuduoda is mine! "A Crystaleye Race member spoke with a worried look.
"Come on, Sister Yuduoda? She went into hibernation in Year 553 of the crystal calendar, while you were born in Year 977 of the crystal calendar. In terms of age, she should be your grandmother. "
While everyone was discussing, the tattooed man suddenly stood up from the sofa.
He walked straight toward them.
Or rather, toward the hallway.
At first, they thought the tattooed man was going to attack them. But they soon realized that he was trying to leave.
No way!
The matter was not settled yet. They could not let this murderer escape!
Without needing Jota's order, the Crystaleye Race members quickly united and blocked the hallway, leaving no room for the tattooed man to escape.
The tattooed man kept mumbling something, trying to explain.
But no one understood him.
The tattooed man felt helpless at this moment. He clearly only wanted to go and see … what exactly was calling out to him.
But this group of detestable tomb robbers just wouldn't let him.
They were the ones who interrupted his hibernation and almost turned him into an undead. But now, they were acting all arrogant … Damn it!
Fine, fine. I'm under their roof.
The tattooed man let out a long breath of resentment. In the end, he shook his head helplessly and sat back down on the sofa.
But the voice was still calling him.
If it was an ordinary call, he could completely ignore it. However, this call seemed to be connected to him. It felt as if … his brain was calling out to him.
Unfortunately, he could not control himself no matter how much desire he had.
Angor noticed the tattooed man's strange behavior. Even when the man sat back down, his restless expression was still obvious.
At first, Angor thought that the tattooed man could not stand the hostile gazes of the other Crystaleye Race members. But after careful observation, he found that the tattooed man did not care about the gazes of the other Crystaleye Race members.
His attention was only on a certain direction.
Was there something there?
Angor glanced around and saw a familiar Crystaleye Race member … Yu Duoda? Could it be that the tattooed man had the same sense of beauty as the Crystaleye Race members and could see the beauty of the most beautiful Crystaleye Race member?
But soon, Angor realized that he was wrong.
Yu Duoda could not stand being stared at by the tattooed man, so she changed her position. In an instant, the area where she was standing became empty.
But the tattooed man was still looking in that direction.
"There's no one here. Why is he still looking there? Maybe he's not looking at a person? " Angor exclaimed in his mind. He subconsciously activated God View and looked further away.
He went through the walls of Rabbit Building and kept looking forward.
Outside was Rabbit Town. There was nothing out of the ordinary.
Following this direction and continuing forward, there was a drainage ditch. The ditch was connected to a series of depressions. Due to the continuous rain outside, several depressions nearby had already formed a pool of water.
There were several hundred people gathered around the lake.
Angor took a quick look and saw that a singer from the Crystaleye Race came here. She was singing "rain and new life" in her beautiful voice by the lake.
It was hard to tell whether the "new life" she was singing was "rain" or himself.
Among the crowd, Angor also saw Evelda talking to another Crystaleye Race member.
If Angor was not mistaken, the Crystaleye Race member talking to her was Wanwan Tower, who specialized in linguistics.
Using God View, Angor kept moving forward.
There were more low-lying lands in front of him, but most of them were still dry. Only the low-lying lands near the drainage ditch had a thin layer of water.
When Angor looked at the deepest part of the ditch, he froze.
At the center of the ditch, he saw a whirlpool-shaped … door.
