"Although it's a pity to lose a top-tier piece of equipment, it's worth it to gain a powerful 'knowledge base' and 'intelligence source' in return."
Ouyang Qianjin nodded and gestured for Hillman to take it.
After all, you reap what you sow.
Moreover, compared to the boost the Crystal Skull provides, it's clearly more beneficial for Hillman to regain his memories.
So Miss Ouyang didn't mind at all.
So Hillman placed the crystal skull in front of him.
Then he took out a rusty little knife.
She recognized the knife.
It's the same knife Hillman used to commit suicide that we saw in the small room earlier.
Hillman carefully inserted the dagger into the notch above the crystal skull.
Then the crystal skull began to shine brightly.
It completely engulfed Hillman.
And Ouyang Qianjin, who was sitting opposite him, was naturally also affected.
Fortunately, the light was just light and had no offensive capabilities.
So, Ouyang Qianjin calmly took out her sunglasses and put them on.
Its main selling point is elegance.
Upon seeing Ouyang Qianjin's reaction, the guards on the perimeter quickly surrounded her and protected her.
The light surrounding Hillman gradually dissipated after about ten minutes.
After the crystal skull fell to the ground and shattered, Hillman reappeared before everyone's eyes.
"Yes, I can sense it—a vast amount of soul power and memories, and everything I know!"
At this moment, Hillman truly exudes a different aura, both inside and out.
Even your skinny frame looks much more dazzling now.
This was the conclusion that Ouyang Qianjin reached after observing it.
"Hey, at least let me pretend for a bit, say some impactful lines or something to calm my excitement, okay?"
Hillman, whose defenses were broken by Ouyang Qianjin's words, complained to her somewhat discontentedly.
"What else can I say? If it were me, I would definitely pretend to be some kind of great demon king who has regained his memories, play tricks on the other party, and then say that I was just pretending to improve my image."
Ouyang Qianjin rolled her eyes at the other person.
She was all too familiar with this kind of tactic.
Therefore, she was so eager to acquire knowledge and information that she had no intention of putting on an act with the other party.
Of course, the most important reason is that she doesn't allow others to show off in front of her.
"You're no fun at all, you're boring."
Hillman sighed after Ouyang Qianjin saw through his intentions.
This girl really can think of anything!
Could it be that they are geniuses like me?
Yes, Hillman did indeed intend to play the villain to get revenge.
As a result, Ouyang Qianjin's words completely ruined his plans.
This is undeniably a tragedy.
After all, how many times in a lifetime can one have such a crazy opportunity to cut off one's own soul?
"Then, let's talk about what you know."
Now that Hillman has regained his soul, Ouyang Qianjin will naturally not hold back.
After waving her hand to dismiss the guards protecting her, Ouyang Qianjin asked the other party directly.
"Yes, that's fine."
Unlike his previous nonchalant attitude, Hillman suddenly became serious when the conversation turned to business.
It seems this guy cut out the serious part before.
"I suspect that Ms. Ouyang is being malicious," she said.
"So, the first issue is the arrival of the descent, which I think is a topic of great concern to all living professionals in the world. What does Master Mage Hillman have to say about this?"
"The so-called descent is nothing more than transforming this world into one where everyone has the potential for magic. After all, not every world has such extraordinary power as magic. In fact, your world did not have this condition before. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the world with the weakest individual ability among all the worlds I have experienced."
When asked by Ouyang Qianjin, Hillman spoke eloquently and elegantly.
However, his words caused the smiling young lady Ouyang to lose her smile instantly.
"Our world? Numerous worlds? Does that mean you've already experienced more than one or two worlds?"
"I asked, frowning," said Ouyang Qianjin.
"Yes, in fact, your world is not the first world to open the [Gate of Descent]."
"There weren't actually many races in my original world."
"For example, vampires are something that only appeared in the previous third world, and elves, dwarves, fishmen, demons, centaurs and other races also come from different worlds."
"However, compared to this, your world is much more monotonous. It's unbelievable that there is only one kind of intelligent life: humans."
When Hillman obtained the soul within the crystal skull, he naturally also received the information about this world that the crystal skull had acquired.
So Hillman was very surprised when the topic of race came up.
After all, in the worlds he had visited, even the smallest ones contained at least two or three different intelligent races.
But it's not here.
However, as a single entity, their history, or rather, their acquisition of 'civilization', is less than ten thousand years.
That's understandable.
After all, it is very difficult for a new evolved race to emerge in such a short period of time.
But don't worry, I, Hillman, will take care of it.
"So, that's why you forced humanity to evolve?"
Is there a problem?
"Of course not, I was just curious about what prompted you to do it."
Ouyang Qianjin shook her head.
She's not some saint.
They would stand up at a time like this to condemn Hillman's 'inhumane' practices.
Instead, she was simply curious as to why the other person would do that.
Although I already had many guesses, I still wanted to hear the truth from this person who had lived for who knows how many years.
"That happened so many years ago, I don't even know how many years ago."
As he spoke, a hint of reminiscence appeared in the soul fire in Hillman's eyes.
"I used to be just a priest at the Church of Colm. I was very young then and didn't know anything. But the high priest and others were very kind and taught me a lot."
"However, there is one thing: after the stars fell from the sky, everything changed."
"At that time, many monsters appeared in the world. No matter how many people killed them, they could not be killed off. They could also infect other races and give birth to new monsters."
"For this reason, even though we, the Colm and the orcs, joined forces to form an alliance, we still failed to eliminate them. Instead, we were the ones who were crippled."
Ouyang Qianjin didn't respond; she just listened quietly to Hillman's explanation.
