Chapter 119 The Secret Beneath the Pants of Sighs
"You want to take off your clothes?"
The last dragonborn was stunned for a moment, but didn't think too much about it, and just regarded it as Avis' research need.
With only the pants of sighs that stuck to his body and could not be removed, the elf lay back on the stone bed.
A cold and hard touch came from behind, causing him to move slightly with some discomfort.
"Why did you leave one?"
Glancing at the elf, Avis asked knowingly.
"Sir Anvis, I can't take that off..."
The elf's face twitched, not knowing how to explain.
"Yeah?"
To the relief of the Last Dragonborn, the blond boy, who was wearing a lab robe, simply nodded and did not think he was talking nonsense as he had worried.
But when he heard the next sentence, he understood why Anvis didn't delve into it.
"I discovered this problem when I tested it just now."
"So, why do you have this... strange structure growing on your body? What does its existence mean to you?"
Of course it’s for review...to protect your world from being destroyed.
"I don't know, sir. When I regained consciousness and escaped, my body became like this."
The last dragonborn complained in his heart, but he put on an innocent expression on his face, as if he knew nothing about the question.
It was as if he was really a poor, weak and helpless experimental subject who had escaped from a wizard's laboratory with difficulty.
"Um--"
Avis nodded, his face showing belief in the Last Dragonborn's explanation.
At the same time, dark magical shackles reappeared, fixing the elf's limbs.
"But no matter what, this abnormal structure must be closely related to your special physique."
Looking at the elf on the experimental table, Avis turned his palm. A knife as thin and sharp as a scalpel appeared in his hand out of thin air.
The cold light reflected by the blade made the elf shrink his neck instinctively.
The next second, he suddenly realized what Avis was going to do, and his expression changed instantly.
"So, I hope to learn a little bit about the specific structure of this strange organization."
The shiny blade reflected the elf's frightened face, and an elegant smile appeared at the corner of Avis' mouth.
But in the eyes of the elf at this moment, this smile was no different from the devil's grin.
“Wait…wait!”
Seeing the sharp scalpel getting closer and closer to his Pants of Sighs, the Last Dragonborn began to panic.
How could this game have such a plot?! Avis smiled and snapped his fingers. A ball of dark magic energy blocked the elf's mouth, holding back what he was about to say.
"Don't worry, you are my follower after all. I will be especially careful during the autopsy so as not to cause you too much harm—"
As the elf stared at him with a mixture of fear and curiosity, Avis moved his fingers nimbly, and the thin and sharp blade instantly sank into the elf's skin and the Pants of Sighs.
A cool metallic touch came from the side of his waist. The Last Dragonborn quickly glanced at the player panel and found that he had lost some blood, but all other conditions were normal.
After observing this, Avis placed the blade against the elf's waist and carefully cut a long slit.
At the same time, a light green magical aura lit up from the stone bed, and the abundant life magic quickly restored the elf's health to full.
After peeling off part of the Pants of Sighs, Avis did not observe immediately.
Instead, he took out a recording crystal ball, suspended it in mid-air, and carefully recorded all the details of the following scene.
Then, he waved his hand and summoned a magic mirror. With the help of the image displayed on the mirror, he carefully peeked into the interior of the Pants of Sighs.
This is a very standard academic operation, which comes from the research habits left over from little Anvis' memory.
In this world full of all kinds of mysterious phenomena, it is extremely dangerous and reckless to rashly observe unknown things.
Some strange existences can cause irreversible harm to the observer even if you just look at them for a moment.
Therefore, for those things of unknown nature, using the magic mirror as a medium to conduct preliminary observations can maximize your own life safety.
Following Avis's thoughts, the gray mirror surface began to fluctuate like water waves, and a blurry image gradually emerged from the mirror.
But the next moment, some irresistible force acted on the magic mirror, causing the entire mirror to instantly turn into countless broken starlight.
At the same time, the backlash of the spell collapse instantly wiped out the last bit of Avis' mental strength that maintained the magic mirror, causing a sharp pain in his mental body.
But this kind of pain and shock was not as shocking as the last image that came when the magic mirror collapsed.
The picture that appeared under the Pants of Sighs was a boundless starry sky!!! . …..… Very early on, Avis realized that he was different from other 'NPCs'.
He can see the player's panel and what the player is actually saying, and the mysterious power behind the player seems to be defenseless against him.
Avis didn't know whether this ability was the result of the wishing technique or a sequelae of the soul's crossing from Blue Star.
But it is obvious that his existence is now similar to some kind of 'BUG'.
This is exactly why Avis suddenly came up with the idea of studying the players. He hopes to use his special abilities to obtain some valuable information from the players.
For example, the basic principle of the player's unique resurrection ability, the underlying architecture of the player interaction panel, and the real source of the so-called "experience points" that players rely on to upgrade.
Existence is reasonable, since something like "players" can exist in this world in accordance with the rules.
Then, the various abilities demonstrated by players will also have operating principles that conform to the rules.
Even if we only analyze some superficial details, it will still be of great reference value.
But when he actually saw the "starry sky" under the Pants of Sighs, Avis was suddenly shocked.
The value of this information seems to be a bit too high.
When he was promoted to a formal mage, he once glimpsed a similar 'starry sky' for a very short time.
When he tested his own talent for prophecy, he saw the 'starry sky' for the second time.
The experience of his first spying caused him to be in a deep coma for several magic hours. During the second spying, the crystal ball that detected talent exploded directly.
And now, it's the third time.
Although they seemed to be no different, Avis could instinctively feel that these three pieces of starry sky had completely different and unique natures.
Based on the knowledge left over from his previous life as a seventh-level magician, Avis judged that the greatest possibility for this starry sky was probably the embodiment of the world's rules.
Rules are the supreme power that only ninth-order masters can get involved in! It is also the fundamental reason why ninth-order masters are not afraid of human wave tactics.
