To the Arad Continent, Lotters was dead.
To the Arad Continent, Lotters was still alive.
The apostles were god-like existences in that world, but they weren't omnipotent. While they had great power, they were bound to this strange body. If they were born as an octopus, they could only be an octopus. If they were born as a boar, they could only be a boar.
If they felt that this body wasn't easy to use, they could just switch to a new body that was more convenient.
At the same time, they would be affected by the environment and weaken their strength.
In general, apostles were very powerful but had many weaknesses.
For example, Lotters had been transferred to the back of the Sky Curtain Behemoth by Herder. Without seawater, his body became withered and couldn't even use 10% of his strength. He didn't even have a way to escape. He could only use his mind power to control the Sky Curtain Behemoth and try to sneak into the Sky Sea.
Even so, he foresaw his own death.
He would be killed by the adventurers of the Arad Continent before he could sneak into the Sky Sea.
It should have been like this …
However, with the appearance of Amethyst, his fate changed.
With Amethyst's help, he gave up his huge body and concentrated all his will and remaining strength into an egg. Before his original body died, he gave birth to this egg … Although he still couldn't get rid of the restriction of the octopus body, he obtained a brand new life and future.
Of course, this wasn't for free. As the price, he signed a contract with Amethyst, pledging his loyalty to her.
No matter how great and omnipotent one was when they were alive, all lives were lowly in front of death.
For some people, they would rather accept the fate of death than submit to the lowly life of others.
However, Lotters didn't have such thoughts. As a higher dimensional lifeform, he viewed things from a different perspective than humans. In his eyes, this wasn't a humiliation but a fair trade. Therefore, when Amethyst proposed the contract, he quickly accepted it.
Although he didn't have the great strength that he had when he was an apostle, his wisdom and knowledge wouldn't disappear. With enough time and seawater, he would grow up and return to his prime.
Although there was no sea in this place called Fantasy Land, it was okay since there was water.
He didn't lack time, so he didn't need to worry about it.
His only worry was —
Was there something wrong with his new neighbor's brain?
Indeed, perhaps because this new body was still very weak, or perhaps because there was a huge barrier here, his spiritual interference was greatly weakened. As long as he didn't actively release his spirit, he wouldn't affect the weak creatures around him — at least, that fairy named Eleanor wasn't affected at all.
However, according to Amethyst, those who came to the Fantasy Village would gradually be assimilated. Then, with such a neighbor living beside him, would his intelligence be assimilated as well?
Lotters was very nervous and worried about this problem. It was a good thing to be alive, but if he had to live like a retard, he would rather accept the fate of death.
Hence, ignoring Eleanor's shouts, he shielded his hearing and sank his body to the bottom of the lake. He decided to temporarily give up on communicating with his new neighbor before his body stabilized.
"Hey, Radish Shredded, come out! My test for you isn't over yet! "
On the surface of the lake, Eleanor stepped on the ice and pouted, a little angry. He's just a new follower, but he doesn't listen to me in my territory. Doesn't he know who's boss?
…
Princess: Is that so? It's done. You can't come here for the time being, right?
Seventeen Year Old Girl: Yes, my Shuttle Plant needs eight days to fully recover.
Princess: In that case, I plan to make a trip to the Wailing Grotto.
Seventeen Year Old Girl: Why are you going to the Wailing Grotto?
Princess: You've taken in an Apostle, so I plan to get one too.
Celia: Are you treating the Apostles as pets?
Princess: I have an idea. I'll collect the Twelve Apostles and fight them in other worlds in the future. The Twelve Apostles will stand in a row, and I'll roar at the back, "Kill them!" That'll be very impressive.
Princess: But there aren't many Apostles I can collect at this time. Herder is the schemer, and Kahn is said to be as strong as a monster. I probably can't beat him. As for the rest, they were either dead or in hiding. Currently, the only ones he could come into contact with were Dyrij and Ciroc.
Patchouli: But isn't Cyroc already dead?
Princess: Yes, that's the problem. Although Cyroc has already kicked the bucket, her resentment seems to still be in the Wailing Grotto. I've checked the official information, and it's said that there's a possibility of resurrection. It just so happens that I'm quite good at resurrecting and dying again. Maybe I'll have a chance to find her.
Patchouli: In other words, you're going to let me deal with Derigi alone?
Princess: Are you afraid?
Patchouli: What's there to be afraid of? Derigi's strongest point is its epidemic pollution. It indiscriminately releases deadly pathogens, but I'm not human. Its pathogens won't affect me at all.
Celia: But Miss Patchouli, aren't you suffering from asthma and anemia?
Patchouli: That's the Witch's Curse. All Magicians have this characteristic, but mine is a little more severe.
Patchouli: But according to Kaguya, the Derigi incident involves the politics of the Dark Elf Kingdom and the Duchy. I'm not interested in it at all, and I don't want to get involved either. If you accidentally piss me off, I might just blow them all up with Royal Flames. When that happens, I won't be able to play the pig to eat the tiger anymore, right?
Princess Royal Highness: Are you threatening me?
Patchouli: Speaking of which, you're the original Moon Princess. You're better at politics.
Princess: The word 'original' can be removed. I'll still be a Princess when I return to the Moon. You mean, you want to swap places with me?
Patchouli: I don't want to play any political games. If you really want to do both at the same time, I'd rather go to the Wailing Grotto. I'm no stranger to the undead anyway.
Princess: That's not a problem, but I don't like pigs.
Patchouli: …
Princess: Fine, fine. Then you go to the Wailing Grotto, and I'll go argue with the Dark Elves. I'll show them what real politics is. As for Derigi, I'll give him to Da Bendan after I get him.
Patchouli: Are you trying to kill him?
Princess: No. Pigs are just dolphins, and otakus are also called cute dolphins. Derigi is a wild boar. If I give Derigi to Da Bendan, it'll be like giving a loli to an otaku. He'll be so happy that he'll cry.
Patchouli: I don't think he'll cry because he'll like it …
Princess: Wait, I found a problem.
Patchouli: What?
Princess: We're the only ones talking in the chatroom, so why don't we talk face to face?
Patchouli: You're the one who's going crazy!
Patchouli went offline.
After that, Hui Ye cleared the conversation between the two and logged off as well.
…
At that moment, Tang Hao still didn't know that Kaguya was planning to give him a "loli." After a few days of rest, his body had almost recovered, and his relationship with Yu Ji was getting better. The quest progress should be at 90% … at least he thought so.
But the last 10% seemed to be very difficult to increase. Just like the quest progress, it was stuck at 50%.
Ever since the two demon god pillars, Baal and Lyme, were killed, the quest progress jumped to 41%, half completed. And during this time, there was no movement from Mei Village. Brother Zheng used the demon god pillars to make pills, but it seemed like he didn't make any.
So, it felt like he was stuck in a game.
However, increasing his strength was also part of the game.
After Yu Ji sucked his blood, Tang Hao's divine power was finally activated for the first time. Just as Amethyst said, his body gave birth to two abilities. One was self-healing. Some injuries that weren't very serious could heal on their own in a short period of time.
For example, a light cut on the back of his hand would not cause platelets to flow out. Even without treatment, the wound would heal in thirty seconds at most, and not even a scar would be left. Four days ago, the four teeth marks on his neck that were bitten by Yu Ji had long since disappeared.
Secondly, his mood could be seen.
As long as he focused his divine power in his eyes and activated his Spirit Vision, he could see the color of everyone's body. Red represented excitement, blue represented melancholy, black represented anger, yellow represented happiness and so on.
Yesterday afternoon, when he and Yu Ji were strolling around the palace, they happened to bump into Brother Zheng's youngest daughter taking a walk with a little female dog. In the end, after teasing her for a while, a big red dog suddenly ran out from the side. It was really red, and it was even panting heavily. This meant that it was very excited.
Oh right, Brother Zheng's youngest daughter is so cute.
Of course, in the past few days, Tang Hao had seen Yu Ji the most. Which color represented which mood was also determined from her body. For example, at this moment, Yu Ji was holding her phone, her body was covered in a faint layer of yellow, which meant that she was very happy.
Eh, it turned black?
Tang Hao turned his head to take a look. Oh, her in-game character had died. No wonder she was angry.
To be honest, the change in Yu Ji's mood was easy to understand.
But then again, neither of these two abilities seemed to directly increase one's combat strength, right?
"It's all your fault!" Just as he was thinking, Yu Ji suddenly glared at him fiercely, "Why did you suddenly look at me? You distracted me and caused me to die. It's all because of you!"
"I'll go!" Tang Hao immediately turned into a melancholy blue, "This is clearly your own handicap, what does it have to do with me looking at you!"
