One day, Lily was suddenly taken by a fatal event and finds herself in an otome game. Good news: she is a precious guide and has five powerful sentinel husbands. Bad news: she is the cruel supporti...
Chapter 58 Just find a sentinel to fix it
The guides present all focused their attention on the blonde girl. Their faces looked as confused and helpless as Lilith's.
They may know more about the common sense of a guide than Lilith, but in this era of extremely unbalanced ratio of scouts, there are many deeper things that only Fu Shuran can tell them.
"The Sentinels are so powerful they can easily tear apart human bodies and destroy buildings. Although there's a risk of them losing control, absolute power means absolute strength. They could have kept the Guides captive and forced us to heal their spiritual power. But why, for thousands of years, have the Guides still dominated?"
Yes? Why? Lilith thought,
"Because their spiritual power can never be applied to themselves like a guide, their spiritual bodies can only fight independently of themselves, like a loyal pet, not a companion."
"So the Sentinels are always chasing after guides who can transform them into beasts. But you see, we ourselves can become one with our spirits."
In Lilith's surprised eyes, a pale pink peach blossom mark appeared under Fu Shuran's right eye, and the tips of his outstretched fingers seemed to be stained with some fine hairs.
"My spirit form is just an ordinary peach. Compared to Qiong's mandrake fruit, it has no lethality. But as long as I want, every part of my body can become a weapon. If a sentry tries to touch me, the peach fuzz can instantly fill his throat."
"Qiong, if your Datura fruit toxins can be absorbed into your body, when Lilith approaches you with her injured hand, you can activate them to instantly occupy Lilith's blood vessels. She will absolutely not be able to attack you again."
"And you, Lilith."
Fu Shuran extended her finger and gently tapped Lilith.
"If your elderberry doesn't come from behind or somewhere else, but directly from your chest, eyes, or even eyelashes, the enemy won't have a chance to react at all. Plant-based combat isn't just about piercing or binding."
The place that was once confused seemed to be awakened by a word. Lilith put her hand on her chest. She originally thought that the lines on her heart were just some kind of mark brought by the bomb, but now she thinks, could it be a sign of the fusion of spirit and body?
Can she, like Fu Shuran, transform her originally harmless spiritual body into a powerful weapon that belongs to her alone?
The class lasted three hours. The sunlight outside the window had turned from golden to orange. Lilith's notes were almost over ten thousand words long.
"Okay, that's it."
Lilith stretched and was about to leave like the others, but was stopped by Fu Shuran.
"Lilith, you stay."
Why did the professor always like to give her detention? Lilith was just confused for a moment, then nodded obediently and stayed.
In the empty classroom, the curtains were drawn, and the red light of the monitor flickered and went out, leaving not even a trace of light.
Lilith was instantly alert. Why was he being kept in a dark room after being detained? Could it be that Fu Shuran despised her as his niece-in-law and planned to kill her? Her divorce application had already been approved!
"Shh, don't be nervous. It's just that it's best not to let others know about our conversation."
A ball of light suddenly appeared, and Fu Shuran's face looked even more charming under the dim light.
Lilith didn't understand why.
"I saw the divorce application. Fu Sui probably doesn't know that all the changes in his family members will be sent to my computer. Although the guide's information will be kept confidential, I have my own information channels."
Fu Shuran sat down in front of her, propping up her chin lazily.
"After being secretly married for so long, the first time I saw my niece-in-law was after the divorce notice. But that's fine. He should be taught a lesson so that he won't treat the person he likes as he pleases."
"I'm sorry, but maybe you misunderstood something? Fu Sui doesn't like me. I forced him to marry me..."
"Ah, this... then he came to beg me?"
Fu Shuran was a little surprised and muttered something. Before Lilith could hear clearly, the other party became serious.
"If he can be forced into something like marriage, then that's his own problem. Even a child knows that... Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore. I want to ask you, are you aware of the true power of your spirit?"
"True power?"
Lilith was a little confused. She had been in this world for too short a time. The game plot rarely mentioned how to control and use the spirit body. Anyway, the heroine didn't need to care about these things.
But now it seems that she knows too little. The sense of crisis of death swallows up everything. She can only see the danger in front of her, but does not know how to break the deadlock, like a blind spot.
"Elder trees are the abode of the soul. The strength of the spiritual body is the power of the soul. Perhaps others don't understand this, but I know that the spiritual potential of the elder tree's host is definitely not just D-level. The stronger your spiritual body, the stronger your soul power will be, which will then feed back into your mental strength."
It sounds like this is even more powerful than the heroine's dodder. Could it be that the legend of time travel coming with a golden finger is true?
Lilith looked at the elderberry emerging from her palm, lost in thought. She followed the encyclopedia entry in her memory and asked,
"Professor Fu, I heard that elderberry can treat blood stasis. Can I use it to treat my own injuries or those of others?"
"Of course, it can even help you eliminate unstable factors in your body."
Fu Shuran blinked and said casually, but just as she finished her words, Lilith grabbed her hand as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Excluding unstable factors, do bombs count?
Lilith couldn't control her inner excitement, she even felt the unknown pain in her heart become more intense,
"If there are artificial objects in the body, can they also be identified and eliminated by elderberry?"
She asked seriously, if this could be done, then she wouldn't have to worry about Arnold's threats, and wouldn't have to continue being a federal spy to save her own life.
"Theoretically, it's possible, but I'm afraid it would require an A- or S-level guide to do it. What happened? Did the doctor drop the scissors in your stomach during surgery?"
Fu Shuran said this jokingly, but Lilith just shook her head and gently changed the subject.
"Well, you said my spiritual power can evolve. How should I do that? I have indeed touched the limit of B-level, but I have no idea how to improve it further. I want to become stronger. Please guide me, Sister Fu."
The girl's sweet words made the smile on Fu Shuran's face even more charming. She brushed her red lips with her fingertips and touched Lilith's face with a little lipstick mark.
"Well... just find a strong sentinel and give him a good rest."
She pursed her lips and looked towards the door.
