What happened to Zhao Xi was bizarre, but there were not many doubts. In fact, the whole process was very simple. Whether the goddess of creation was truly dead or not, the obsession she left in Coldpath at the moment of her death was not extinguished. It was just a short sentence, but it had lingered in the Netherrealm Clock Tower for tens of thousands of years. Zhao Xi accidentally came into contact with this obsession and became its carrier, while she herself fell into a state of chaos for a long time. The power of the gods was so powerful that just a little remnant of their thoughts after their death was enough to make a powerful demon hunter lose his mind.
And when Hao Ren used the hibernation pod to reconstruct Zhao Xi's mind, it triggered the divine thoughts lurking in the depths of her soul. Even if the hibernation pod was just a civilian device, it was still made by Xi Ling. If you checked the serial number of the production permit, it was a divine artifact. So divinity versus divinity, the goddess' thoughts in Zhao Xi's soul were triggered and turned into a divine word. The MDT happened to be connected to the device at that time, and it used its own internal circuit to carry the divine word. But before it could process it, it crashed. After all, it was just a PDA, and the way it was connected caused the firewall to be ineffective.
About half an hour later, there was a muffled voice on the street outside. Hao Ren saw the street lights outside the window lit up again. It seemed that the little demon had successfully fixed the transformer that was taller than her. But after the street lights came back on, the electricity in the house had not been restored. Just as Y 'zaks said, the more fragile indoor circuit had been completely destroyed, and it would probably take a lot of effort to fix it.
Vivian dug out a few spare light bulbs from the drawer and let her little bats carry them to the house to restore the lights. While there were a lot of problems with this method, it was a lot more reassuring to have the house lights back on. Hao Ren looked at Zhao Xi, who was still in shock, and discussed with Liu Sheng. "Looks like she'll need another night to recover. Why don't you stay here tonight? There's no room available, can you make do in the living room?"
Liu Sheng hesitated for a moment. He wanted to politely decline, but before he could open his mouth, Vivian cut him off. "Just stay here. Don't argue with us. Demon Hunter No. 1 and No. 2 are here. You don't have to feel pressured."
Liu Sheng's face fell when he heard this. "That's why I feel pressured …"
Lily excitedly poked Vivian's arm. "Battie, Battie! Do you think I'm the number one boss? Is it me? "
Vivian glared at her. "Get lost. You passed away six thousand years ago. You're only the late emperor now. I haven't abdicated yet."
The cat girl raised her head and meowed, "What is it?"
Vivian and Lily said in unison, "None of your business!"
At this time, Y'lisabet pushed the door open and came in. The little girl's face was black, and her big eyes were shining in the dark background. "It's finally fixed! The inside of the transformer is burnt. What a strong fire … Thank goodness I'm good at it. "
"If there's nothing else, let's get some rest." Hao Ren looked up at the people in the living room. "We'll talk tomorrow."
It was still early. If everyone went back to their rooms to sleep, they would not be sleepy. However, there was nothing much to do in the living room. Moreover, seeing that Zhao Xi was rather dispirited, everyone went back to their rooms. Vivian found two sets of bedding and brought them to the living room for Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi to spend the night. The two demon hunters thanked her profusely.
Hao Ren did not go back to his room to sleep. He went straight to the empty space behind the house, wanting to think in peace.
Rollie was also not the type to go back to her room to sleep. Seeing that Hao Ren did not object, she sneaked out from the back door. Perhaps it was the lingering power of the divine words, but the dumb cat was unusually obedient. She quietly crouched beside Hao Ren and played with her tail. She did not cause any trouble.
After a while, Hao Ren heard the door behind him open. Vivian's voice came from behind him. "What are you thinking about?"
"It's just a sudden thought," Hao Ren said without turning his head. "Why did I happen to encounter this? Why did I happen to encounter the goddess's' will '? "
Vivian did not think much of it. "What's so strange about that? Don't you always encounter strange things like this? Who asked you to do this?"
"That's one way to explain it in the past, but this time … It's too unlikely to be a coincidence." Hao Ren shook his head. "Zhao Xi is just one of thousands of ordinary demon hunters. Why did she happen to be the carrier of the will? My relationship with her is only that of an acquaintance. Why did I just happen to want to check up on her and Liu Sheng? I just wanted to go out for a walk today, and just happened to remember to go to the city. Just happened to remember to look for the two of them, and Zhao Xi — she just happened to become the carrier of the will. If anything goes wrong in this series of events, I will miss today's clue, and Zhao Xi's soul will be completely erased by the will of the goddess. Then there will be nothing left. Don't you think that the 'Word of God' that we've heard seems to be waiting for me to meet it? "
"Maybe you're just overthinking it." Vivian came to Hao Ren's side and said softly. "Actually, everything in this world is a coincidence. It's just that most people don't get to the bottom of it. The matter of the goddess of creation is too special. Her … 'will' is also very special. That's why you're a little nervous. Do you want me to make you some calming soup? "
"Err, forget it." Hao Ren waved his hand. He was reminded of the calming soup that Vivian made last time. The last time he suggested that Vivian throw Lil Pea in the soup, the little one ate everything in the pot. He and Lily drank half a bowl of fish soup and were full of energy until midnight. Lil Pea slept until 11: 30 the next day …
After dismissing those messy memories, Hao Ren took something out from his dimensional pocket.
The black Godslayer sword.
"Actually, I thought of this." Hao Ren gently waved the black longsword, and Rollie, who was playing with her tail, was immediately attracted by the sword. Her feline instincts made her wary and curious as she stared at the glittering blade. She slowly raised her tail, and as she backed away, she growled threateningly at the Godslayer.
"You mean …" Vivian suddenly thought of something.
Hao Ren nodded. "Raven 12345 said that this sword is entangled with the goddess of creation's karma. When I hold this sword, it will 'draw' me closer to the goddess of creation. Now, I'm guessing it's already taking effect. "
"You suspect that Zhao Xi's incident is the result of the so-called 'karma entanglement'?" Vivian's eyes widened. "Is karma really that powerful?"
"Truth be told, I don't like that term. It doesn't fit our style, but I can accept it in another way: information entanglement. I can't be sure if Zhao Xi's incident is a hundred percent related to the Godslayer's information entanglement, but I've asked Zhao Xi about the details that she can recall, and I've done some calculations. I realized that she didn't lose her mind the moment she entered the Netherrealm Clock Tower. The moment she completely lost her mind was the moment I came into contact with the Godslayer. "
Vivian suddenly felt that this was a little too far-fetched. "How are you so sure?"
"Zhao Xi mentioned a detail," Hao Ren said. "She vaguely remembers that a group of demons appeared in the Netherrealm Clock Tower's armory, and her mind only completely dissipated after that scene. When was that? It was not long after we set off for the ceremonial hall. Lanina was waiting for our news, and she sent some people to search the depths of the Netherrealm Clock Tower. I'm almost certain that the moment I saw the Godslayer, Zhao Xi came into contact with the goddess of creation's divine will. We can boldly guess that these two things happened at the same time. "
Vivian listened to what Hao Ren said, and a creepy feeling slowly crept up from the bottom of her heart. "Why do I feel a little creeped out?"
"Don't be too nervous. At least for now, we can only feel kindness from the goddess of creation." Hao Ren was very good at comforting himself. "Besides, you were created by the goddess of creation using her divine blood. If we're talking about information entanglement, I'm afraid your connection with the goddess isn't any weaker than this sword. It's just that the information entanglement on you can't show."
Vivian nodded. After all, she had been through a lot, and she would not panic just because of this. After she calmed down, she looked at Hao Ren curiously. "What do you plan to do now?"
Hao Ren raised the sword of the Godslayer. "Who knows better than this sword what happened to the Goddess of Creation when she was dying? Every time I pick it up, it keeps babbling a bunch of stuff into my ear, so I want to talk to it and see what it's talking about. "
Vivian: "?!"
