"The other half of the sense of touch is that woman, right?" Igula said, "Can the sense of touch be divided into two?"
"Each country can only have one sense of touch. This is an immutable rule." Mercury Trojan said, "But there are four Four Pillar Gods, and there can only be one sense of touch, so sometimes they disagree."
"Although the Four Pillars of God favor you very much, the other one is favored no less than you. The Four Pillars of God could not reach a consensus, so they made both of you half touches until they reached a consensus, or you only had one option left, then they would choose the real touch."
"So it's still good news for you - at least that person is not a complete tactile being, and she can't use the Four Pillars to protect herself."
"The bad news is that we can't control the Four Pillars either." Igula said calmly, "Because Ash doesn't have a complete sense of touch, he can't automatically become the leader of the Four Pillars. That's why you're so happy - before the real sense of touch is born, you can still control the Four Pillars!"
"Yes," Mercury Trojan smiled, "Although my sense of touch will gradually deteriorate, the sect I built will continue to operate according to my will."
This is indeed the best situation for Mercury Trojan. Whether Ash or that person becomes a touch, it means that she must hand over the authority of the Four Pillars Divine Religion, and she is obviously that kind of power monster. In addition, the Four Pillars Divine Religion of Senluo was built by her own hands. How could she be willing to hand over the business she worked so hard to run?
For her, the transfer of tactile sensation was definitely an unexpected accident. Who could have thought that the Four Pillar Gods would divert their attention because of a massacre (of which the people killed were the followers of the Four Pillar Gods religion)? Mercury Trojan Horse must have been quite dissatisfied, but in order to survive, she had to keep fighting for her life.
Now that the sense of touch has not yet been born, Mercury Trojan has more time to prepare for his own exit, how could she not be happy? However, Igula concluded that she would not end obediently. Although she did not dare to kill Ash and that woman (whoever died would mean the birth of a new sense of touch), she would definitely find a way to prolong this confrontation.
"Doesn't half-tactile have any abilities like eternal existence or mercury horse?" Ash asked.
"Half-tactile sensation is equivalent to having a disabled organ. Can a disabled organ be used? Yes, it just requires long-term training and luck." Mercury Trojan said: "But you don't even know what your disabled organ is, how can you train it?"
"Can't you see that?" Igula asked.
"My ability is already declining." Mercury Trojan showed a regretful expression: "The ability of touch is a deep secret, I can't see it."
Not to mention Tamashi, even Ash could tell that she was lying, she just didn't want to say it out loud so that Ash wouldn't be able to develop his tactile abilities.
Shameless, greedy, scheming, and evil-minded, she is undoubtedly qualified as the leader of the Four Pillars God Cult.
Ash's tone also turned cold: "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Although you have become semi-tactile, your danger remains unchanged." Mercury Trojan said: "The blood species are still constantly devouring your bodies. I can send someone to bring you some Gray Fox supplies, which can slightly replenish your life loss, but it is only a temporary solution and not a permanent solution."
"The Dragon Blood Cultivation System is too overbearing. As long as you don't eradicate the blood core, you will be the blood species being sucked away. You don't want your years of accumulation to be sucked away by others, right? So, you still have to kill the blood core."
"I will provide you with information about the Blood Core, and will also try to help you in your hunt. However, once the Blood Core dies, it means that you, Ash, will completely become a touch-sensate - are you really ready to serve the Four Pillars for life?"
Ash's expression changed slightly: "Even if I become a touch, I will not serve the Four Pillars."
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you because of my choice of words. The word 'serve' makes it sound like we have chosen it on our own initiative, but in fact, the relationship between the sense of touch and the Four Pillars is not master and servant, but symbiotic." Mercury Trojan said: "Even if plants abandon the earth, sunlight turns away from the sun, and direction betrays bullets, the sense of touch cannot betray the Four Pillars."
"At that time, your wishes will be of no importance, because your life is already parasitic on the Four Pillars. No matter how much your fingers hate the body, they have to serve it."
The expressions of Ash and others became very ugly - if they want to survive, they must kill the blood core; but if they kill the blood core, Ash will become touch, and his life will change.
"Give them what they want and give them what they need." Igula suddenly said, "It seems that you have a proposal that we can't refuse."
"It's very simple." Mercury Trojan said, "You have to kill Blood Core, and at the same time Ash can't become a touch. Then just make Blood Core a perfect touch, and then kill her immediately, and all the problems will be solved."
"But doesn't the sense of touch require one of them to die so that the other can achieve perfection?"
"I have another way," Mercury Trojan said with a smile, "As long as you bring her to the Four Pillars Divine Sect, I will solve all your problems."
Ash's lips moved, but when he saw that Igula didn't say anything, he remained silent.
Mercury Trojan's suggestion seemed good, but the murderous intent in it was too obvious - they brought the blood core to the Four Pillars God Sect, and two half-tactile beings were present at the same time. As long as Mercury Trojan killed both of them, the Four Pillars God would have no other choice but to continue to favor her!
Even without Tamashi's testimony, Ash had no doubt about the evil nature of Mercury Trojan! In other words, she didn't hide it at all, but rather exposed her evil intentions in an extremely arrogant manner.
Because what Mercury Trojan gives is not advice at all, but a challenge!
She will help Ash survive and help Ash catch the blood core. Then, during this period, she will prepare a wonderful trap for Ash and others. If Ash and the blood core die in it, then she will still be the Mercury Horse; if Ash can get through, then she will help them solve the problem.
And the most important thing is, as long as Ash doesn't want to become a touch, he must accept this challenge!
“…Even if you don’t have the ability of touch, you can definitely run the Four Pillars Divine Religion successfully.” Igula said: “Seize every opportunity and understand every bit of human nature. The success of you and the Four Pillars Divine Religion is by no means accidental.”
"Same here." Mercury Trojan said, "By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell Ash. Although you have not yet enjoyed the benefits of touch, you still have to pay the price of touch."
"What's the price?" Ash asked, "Should we thank them for giving us Lala Fei before we eat?"
"It's not a very important price actually." Mercury Trojan said with a smile: "Starting from the third level of the Void Realm, your sense of touch will be hated by the Void Realm."
Being hated by the virtual world?
"Wait!" Ash discovered a loophole: "Didn't you just say that the Four Pillar Gods are the masters of the Void Realm? I am their sense of touch, why am I still hated?"
"Because the virtual world was stolen by other villains, they turned against its original owner." Mercury Trojan said: "Just like if the blood core becomes the sense of touch, then the Four Pillars Divine Religion that I created will also become my enemy."
"Come to think of it," Harvey said, "it's OK that we don't know that person's name, but why don't you call her by her name?"
"Because she used a miracle to hide her real name, and I've never actually seen her, so I don't know her name either." Mercury Trojan said, "She used to have the title 'Silver Lantern Saint of Dust Tribulation Fire', and she seemed to be quite satisfied with the name Silver Lantern."
Silver Lantern... Just as Ash and the others were chewing on this name, Tamashi suddenly asked enthusiastically: "Tanomu, do you have any other suggestions?"
"No, what's left is to discuss how the Four Pillars of God can support you—"
Click.
Tamashi chopped off the head of the mercury horse and threw it into the bonfire. As if that was not enough, he threw the body in as well. He clapped his hands, as if he felt a little embarrassed, and said to Ash and the others, "Shall I get you something to eat? What do you want to eat?"
"...Red Flame Lala Fei."
…
…
In the darkness, a red light is moving quickly.
Although it had no vision, the five-tailed flame white tiger still walked in the wilderness with ease. Silver Lamp sat on its back, with a circle of thick fluorescent green around its neck, which looked like a noose that would tighten at any time.
"Oh, I almost forgot, I have one more little thing to tell you."
Yin Deng turned her head to look behind her. Behind her, the quiet girl brought by Huanjinglong had not left yet and was still hugging her waist with interest.
The quiet girl said, "Because your world line is very similar to mine, I was thinking about what I encountered at that time, and you might encounter it next."
Yin Deng: "If it has anything to do with the Four Pillars Religion, then it has nothing to do with me."
"It can't be said that they are unrelated, but the connection is not that deep." The quiet girl said casually: "It's just that there is someone who can form a team in the virtual world and explore the virtual world with other magicians, and you are likely to be pulled into this team."
Magicians team up to explore the virtual world?
Even though she knew that the other party had no reason to deceive her, Yin Deng couldn't help showing a 'are you kidding me' expression. But she still nodded, "I remember it."
"Even without my reminder, you would know what to do." The quiet girl said, "It's time for me to leave. I hope you can see the truth before you wake up from your dream."
"Thank you." Silver Lamp said, "I hope you can have a good dream in your world line."
"My dream is over." The quiet girl smiled, and her smile gradually faded like a wisp of smoke.
Just as Yindeng turned around and continued to move forward, he heard the final reminder from another world line:
"By the way, the captain of that magician team is called the End Watcher."
"His real name is Ash Hiss."
