When surrounded by the Transcendental Believers, Ash thought he was going to have a tough fight - although the Transcendental Believers posed no threat to him in his spirit state, he couldn't just steal someone else's magic and kill people in their homes.
Even though Yin Deng is shameless, he still has some shame!
However, surprisingly, the Transcendent believers did not attack immediately, but were willing to listen to their explanations.
If it were any other sect, Ash might think that the other party was a coward, but the Transcendental Sect didn't have such a concept at all. Their decision was the result of calculations in the intelligent computing center. If they thought that Ash was a criminal who wanted to seize the law, then they would keep Ash even if they had to sacrifice all their believers.
Now Silver Lantern has run away with Mingzou Xian, and the remaining Transcendence Prison is in Ash's hands. Even if they want to talk, they must suppress Ash first.
But when Ash wanted to explain, the Transcendentalists pointed at Harvey and asked the Necromancer to speak. After listening to Harvey's narration, the Transcendentalists expressed their willingness to believe them, as long as Ash returned the Transcendental Prison before leaving in the morning.
Everyone was surprised at how popular Harvey was in the Transcendental Cult. Ash recalled what Harvey had done and couldn't help asking, "Is it because you can play the harmonica?"
"How is that possible?" Harvey replied, "Maybe it's because I'm very close to the dead now."
Undead?
Ash was startled, then reacted.
Transcend consciousness and fade away the ego.
Undead.
Aren't undead creatures with only intelligence but no consciousness exactly what the Transcendental Cult is pursuing? Of course, there is a decisive difference: the undead are already dead, while the Transcendental Cult wants to evolve while alive.
Harvey's 'Ice-Cold Fire' is in a state between life and death, his consciousness is extremely close to that of a silent undead, but he is still alive and happens to be recognized by the Transcendental Sect.
However, Ash still felt that there was a reason for playing the harmonica - the little girl's love for Harvey must have been uploaded to the intelligent computing center. If one person likes Harvey, maybe the entire Transcendental Church also likes Harvey.
Then the Transcendental Cult raised a question: Did Ash obtain the citizenship privileges of the Transcendental Prison Law?
After receiving an affirmative answer, they proposed a deal: if Ash was willing to use his citizenship to help them unlock several pieces of Gray Fox heritage, they would be willing to give a piece of the heritage to Ash and others, and allow Ash to perform the Transcendence Prison Technique remotely.
"Long-distance teleportation?" The silver-haired beauty's eyes flickered: "Do you believe in the Transcendental Sect?"
"No." Ash pulled out a card: "But they gave me this."
"Oh." The silver-haired beauty suddenly realized: "It's an indulgence."
Indulgences, every sect can produce something similar, made through the resonance of believers and Dafa during worship ceremonies. Its original purpose was not to invigorate the gods, but to help believers pass through the night.
Although believers with strong will can pass through the darkness and strangle the green, there are always some less determined believers who will be contaminated and mutated by the strangled green.
As long as the believers carry the indulgence, they can be safe even if their willpower is not strong enough to resist the stranglehold. It was not until later that the believers discovered that the indulgence was the most stable channel for connecting with Dafa, and it was perfect for long-distance spiritual communication.
"That is to say, not only did you not come into conflict with the Transcendental Sect, you also obtained indulgences and inheritance..." The silver-haired beauty nodded thoughtfully.
Ash snorted and stood up, saying, "I'm not afraid to tell you what inheritance I got - it's this, the God-Surfing Belt!"
I saw that Ash was wearing a very evil-looking belt with a slot in the middle, which seemed to be used to hold indulgences.
"With this belt and the indulgence, I can still perfectly master the spirit even if the Transcendence Prison Technique is not with me." Ash said, "Even if I meet the Silver Lantern again, I will still be able to fight."
Although it was Silver Lamp, he was staring at the silver-haired beauty, obviously also hinting at the Four Pillars of God. Anyway, he would definitely expose his parasitic fighting power in the battle with Silver Lamp in the future, so it would be better to use it to intimidate Mercury Trojan now.
However, the God-Snatching Belt sounds powerful, but it is actually a toy of Gray Fox God Era.
When Ash picked up the God-Surfing Belt, he received feedback from the belt based on his citizenship: "An unregistered user has been detected. Please log in to Type-0 Toys to register or play as a visitor..."
"Zero Toys Company thanks you for your purchase. Currently, the Zero Transformation Belt only has the God-Sending function. Please use it with the Dafa Point Card! You can unlock more functions after logging in. It supports up to 10 point cards to be driven at the same time. There are more plug-ins available for download!"
"God-hosting: Run after inserting the Dafa Point Card, maximum load 100%, maximum number 1."
Dafa point cards, indulgences, the same things have different names and different expectations in different eras.
From this, Ash also saw the intelligence of the Transcendent Sect: the God Parasite Belt was meaningless to the Transcendent believers, after all, they would not leave the Transcendent Building. On the contrary, after giving it to Ash, no matter how Ash used it outside, it would consume the strength of other sects and serve as a living signboard for the Transcendent Sect. The Transcendent Sect would make money anyway.
If the indulgences are exhausted, Ash will have to go back to the Transcendental Sect to replenish them. After this back and forth, Ash might become a Transcendental believer - this is just Igula's opinion, because Ash always feels that the Transcendental Sect is coveting Harvey, not him.
Because although the Transcendental Sect gave the Gray Fox legacy, the Divine Belt, to Ash as promised, they also customized a polyphonic harmonica for Harvey.
The silver-haired beauty glanced at the belt, but didn't pay much attention to it. She continued to ask, "You said you almost caught the silver lamp?"
Ash nodded and briefly described the chase between him and Silver Lantern.
The silver-haired beauty suddenly questioned as she listened: "Your fighting style has changed. You didn't show any long-range attack ability before. As far as I know, it is also difficult for the God Host to attack from a distance. But later you were able to severely injure Silver Lantern from a long distance... What happened?"
Of course Ash would not confess everything to his future enemy: "I had a breakthrough during the battle."
"You have an unknown ability that I don't know about." The silver-haired beauty said calmly, "And you can't use it all the time, otherwise you will be able to severely damage Silver Lantern at the beginning of the battle. Let me guess... Is it a hidden personality?"
Igula immediately looked at Ash, and the silver-haired beauty shook her head and said, "No, with the help of a psychic, if you really have a hidden personality, it can also become a regular weapon. So that is not your hidden personality, but..."
"Your hidden self."
Ash didn't deny or admit it. He had no interest in continuing to leak information to the Four Pillars: "It's your turn. It's time to tell us about the Silver Lantern."
However, the silver-haired beauty still stared at Ash: "I want to see your true self hidden under your skin."
Ash calmly replied, "I'm sorry, I sell my body, not my art."
"Really? If the psychic next to you also turns into a wooden horse, wouldn't you be willing to let your true self come out for some fresh air?"
Bang!
The guests turned around and saw the red-haired girl overturn the table and grab the silver-haired beauty. It turned out to be just a fight between women, so they turned back and continued drinking.
Ash didn't stay here to cause trouble, he dragged the silver-haired beauty out to the alley wall: "What did you say?"
"You are just generally angry now." The silver-haired beauty shook her head: "You are still a little far from the truth."
Boom!
The silver-haired beauty bent down subconsciously after being punched in the abdomen, but she still shook her head calmly: "It's useless. The best you can do now is massage. It's hard to crush Lala Fei to death here... Of course, if you use your spirit, you can break through the shackles of the Kaleidoscope and kill me. But, is there any point in killing me?"
It doesn't make sense.
She is just a follower of the Four Pillar Gods controlled by the Mercury Trojan. If you kill her, the Mercury Trojan will still have countless pawns.
And, what if...
"Or do you want me to find you in another body?" She whispered softly in Ash's ear: "A silent necromancer or a cunning psion?"
Bang!
Ash silently withdrew his hand, looked at the silver-haired beauty who was knocked to the ground by him, and asked, "Are you here to announce that our cooperation with the Four Pillars Cult has officially broken down?"
"Of course not." The silver-haired beauty sat on the ground, touching her face and shaking her head. She looked at Igula who came over after dealing with the bar bill and smiled, "He doesn't seem to care about you that much."
"If you knew how we met," Igula said calmly, "you wouldn't have any strange misunderstandings about our relationship."
"If you want to provoke me, please go back, or tell us the information about the Silver Lantern."
The silver-haired beauty stood up, brushed off the dust on her skirt, and said, "The Silver Lamp is in Black Robe Town."
Ash and the others were not surprised by this information - the largest town closest to the Beyond Building was Black Robe Town, and coupled with Black Robe Town's trading characteristics, it was normal for Silver Lantern to resupply here.
"And how did you recognize the two of us?" Igula asked, "Our appearance and clothing are different from our original bodies."
"Please allow me to keep this a secret." The silver-haired beauty tapped her lips with her finger: "Since Ash is unwilling to show his true self, I must also retain some mystery. So, goodbye, both of you."
Watching the silver-haired beauty disappear in the crowd, Igula turned his head and saw Ash leaning against the wall in deep thought.
“Time to get back to shopping.”
"Um."
Although he said that, Ash had no intention of moving, and still didn't know what he was thinking.
The fraudster glanced at him and walked straight into the pedestrian street. After a while, he came back with two ice creams, took one for himself and handed one to the cult leader.
Ash was not afraid of the cold, he took a big bite, and the corners of his mouth were covered with cream. After the ice cream melted in his mouth, he suddenly said, "She's lying."
"Um?"
"She couldn't have used mercury on you. You didn't even touch the wooden horse at that time. If her tactile ability didn't even require contact, she would have been able to turn the silver lamp into a wooden horse long ago. How could she have fallen to the point where she was taken over by the silver lamp?"
Igula was startled, then after thinking about it carefully, he nodded: "Yes, it is indeed a huge loophole."
"But why did she provoke me with such a lie?" Ash frowned and asked, "Is it just to see my hidden cards?"
"Come to think of it, I've always been concerned about one thing." Igula said, "It's fine that she recognized both of us, but why did she only ask about Harvey's situation?"
Ash blinked and reacted instantly.
Mercury Trojan is not only Mercury Trojan, she is also Tamashi's former companion Tanomu. In addition, Tamashi hates her. When she saw that Tamashi did not act with them, why didn't she ask about Black Crow's situation, but only asked the Necromancer?
Just when a thought was about to come out of his shell, someone suddenly shouted outside the alley: "Finally found you two. Even if there is a miracle of prophecy, there are many women with red hair and red eyes here..."
They turned around and saw a woman they didn't recognize, so they asked, "Who are you?"
"Aren't you used to my way of appearing yet?" She said with a smile:
"Since Tamashi is not here, you should just call me Mercury Trojan."
…
…
The virtual world is far away in the empty space.
When the four operators appeared in the dream bubble, Sonia immediately looked at Ash and asked, "How was your battle with Silver Lantern?"
"Luckily you logged into the virtual world tonight." Diya also breathed a sigh of relief: "I was worried that something had happened to you."
Because he had planned to have a conflict with Silver Lantern, Ash had already prepared to not be able to log into the virtual world for a day or two. He originally planned to let Sword Lady and Witch form a team to explore on their own. Even if the Dream Treasure House was bound to him, the efficiency of multiple magicians in a team is always better than that of a single magician.
But after a moment's hesitation, Sword Lady and Witch both opposed this decision and preferred to act freely. Ash was quite surprised, as they were quite close before, but if they didn't want to, forget it, it would only be one or two nights anyway.
"It's a long story, and something very confusing just happened..." Ash looked at the quiet girl next to him and took the initiative to greet the new operator: "Good evening, Weisser."
Weisser put down the hand that was touching her face and smiled, "Good evening, viewer."
