Chapter 140.
This time, the two of them looked carefully behind Ning Xuanqing, but there was nothing there.
"Hiss!" Li Jia pondered, "How do you prove that you really saw it, and it's not just your mentally disturbed imagination?"
This question made Ning Xuanqing stunned for a moment, and he suddenly turned his head to the air beside him and asked: "Do you have any way to prove your existence?"
"Who are you talking to?" Li Jia asked in horror.
"Tang En," Ning Xuanqing said, pointing at Tang Yu, "Look at the gears of fate."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu subconsciously lowered his head to look at his wrists. The gears of fate that were originally rotating at a constant speed were now turning faster and slower.
Without waiting for Tang Yu to ask, Ning Xuanqing said directly: "That's Tang En turning the gears."
In her vision, Tang En, who was in a translucent state, was standing next to Tang Yu, and the pair of gears were rotating at different speeds under his control.
Tang Yu stared blankly for a long while. She tried to use the power of distortion to observe the energy field around her, but still could not find Tang En.
Even so, Tang Yu chose to believe Ning Xuanqing's words.
After a long pause, she exhaled and asked, "What does he want to tell us?"
Ning Xuanqing knew who Tang Yu was referring to. She looked towards a certain empty space with her lake green eyes and said with emotion, "He helped me decipher the secret of that recipe."
The recipe that was created after the struggle between the two Old Ones recorded a dish for destroying gods.
Once this dish is successfully prepared, even gods will be attracted and killed.
The recipe was partially damaged due to the destruction, and the name is no longer traceable, but fortunately the main cooking ingredients are still intact.
However, the ingredients needed to prepare a dish that could destroy gods were extraordinary!
"Space Gate, Mutation Core." Ning Xuanqing said slowly: "The last ingredient is not clear, but Tang En said that the aura he felt from it is very familiar, and it can be replaced with a similar item."
"What?"
"The gears of fate."
Li Jia listened for a while before saying, "Can this be called food?"
The Space Gate and the Gear of Destiny are both super S-level items. In terms of their preciousness, they are indeed worthy of the title, but who can tell her how to cook these things?
That's fine.
"What is the Mutation Core?"
Tang Yu pondered and said, "It may be a super S-level item similar to the Space Gate."
Li Jia thought it made sense, "But where should we find this thing?"
"What did you say?" Ning Xuanqing suddenly said to the void.
Seeing her serious expression, Tang Yu couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Ning Xuanqing was stunned for a moment before he began to relay Tang En's words.
"Tang En said that there is no need to look for it, as the mutation core has already been found." She glanced at Tang Yu with a complicated expression and continued, "Destiny has already prepared everything for you."
......
Tang Yu walked into Xila's room again.
His small body was curled up on the bed, almost completely wrapped in bandages, with cursed black juice oozing out from the gaps. Under the exposed pale skin, the purple blood vessels were twisted like some strange rune.
Hearing the noise at the door, Silla turned his eyes slightly. His eyes were no longer pure black, nor were they normal eyes with clear black and white.
The white part of the eye outside the black pupil is turbid mixed with black and red, giving off a rotten and spoiled feeling.
Seeing that it was Tang Yu who came in, Xi La's brows, which were originally frowned because of pain, suddenly relaxed, and he said unhappily: "I won't eat your disgusting thick soup today!"
In order to suppress his injuries, Tang Yu had to feed him food containing twisted power every day.
Sometimes Sheila couldn't tell which was more painful, this torture or the curse.
Tang Yu silently watched him lose his temper, which made him confused.
Silla gritted her teeth and said, “What bad idea are you planning again?”
Tang Yu walked over to Xila's bed and sat down, telling him about the torn pages of the recipe.
She was not worried that this would be known by the Outer God. After all, the Outer God had abandoned Sheila, and the mark he left in Sheila's soul had become the source of the curse.
And that is the core of mutation.
It is also the core of the God-killing dish, which is aimed at that Outer God. As long as the dish is cooked, the power of the mutation core can lock onto that Outer God.
By then, even God will not be able to resist the temptation of that food.
As Silla's eyes widened, Tang Yu continued, "Perhaps this was the work of the Ancient God. He wants to use us to get rid of that foreign god."
I don't know if it was fate or the god was too arrogant, but he left such a big flaw. He deliberately spared Sheila's life and made him endure inhuman pain, but he also left himself a fatal handle.
Xila was silent for a long time. His eyes, which were constantly oozing black blood, narrowed dangerously. "So, you are planning to sacrifice me and cook me as food like in World 008?"
"How are you going to cook me?" As Sheila spoke, more and more black juice seeped out of her body until it stained the bandages.
A dangerous aura emanated from him.
Tang Yu stood up, looked at his appearance, frowned and said: "You are forcibly urging your energy, which will aggravate your pain."
Silla gritted her teeth and insisted: "So what? It's better than being killed by you!"
The sticky black liquid mixed with bright red blood condensed in his hand and turned into a black and red sword.
"Come on! Get started!"
"Eleven." Tang Yu looked at him with unusually calm eyes, but his tone was familiar.
"If I really intended to sacrifice you directly, I would not tell you the truth."
She had no intention of taking any action, she just stood there quietly.
"I will think of a way to save your life. After all, you are not the Distortion Core itself. I think there is a way to separate that thing from your soul. I tell you this so that you can be mentally prepared. After all, it will be very painful to remove the soul anchor."
Silla sneered: "Heh, is that another skill you learned from that ancient god?"
Tang Yu's silence expressed his agreement.
"That thing is in my soul. If you want to remove the twisted core, it's no different from cutting my soul. I'm afraid I'll become a fool by then!"
Seeing him like this, Tang Yu could only comfort him, "I will let you survive, don't worry."
After she finished speaking, she planned to leave here, but when she was about to walk out the door, Silla called her.
"You might as well just kill me instead of risking awakening Him!"
"I really have a way..."
"That's enough." Xila interrupted Tang Yu, "Just kill me. I know the curse better than you. Even if I survive, my wounds will never be healed. I will live with this broken body for the rest of my life."
His tone was no longer as aggressive as before, and even contained a hint of pleading.
"I've had enough of this pain."
Tang Yu turned and looked at Xila. The boy, who was about seven or eight years old, was kneeling on the quilt. His thin body was trembling in his wide sleeves, and his almost useless eyes were staring at Tang Yu.
He said: "You know I'm really afraid of pain, so just kill me."
Tang Yu's thoughts were in a trance for a moment.
During their time in the orphanage, Director Lin would visit the children every once in a while, and for the children's health, they had to get vaccinated regularly.
Lin Shiyi would always hide secretly at times like that, and when caught he would cry and make a fuss, as if he were being tortured.
At that time, Tang Yu knew that he was extremely afraid of pain, but he couldn't understand why the guy didn't say a word when he was pushed down the stairs and broke his leg.
The image of the child in his memory overlapped with the figure in front of him. Tang Yu exhaled and asked, "Have you thought it through?"
Silla pulled the corners of his lips and showed a forced smile. He said, "You've caused such a big disaster, you have to pay it back."
Tang Yu looked at him in surprise, "Are you Eleven?"
Silla shook her head and nodded again, "That cowardly guy is hiding, I just said these words for him."
When Tang Yu gave him the "octopus balls", Lin Shiyi briefly regained consciousness, but the cruel reality and strong sense of guilt made him hide again, and Xila's personality took the lead again.
And today, Tang Yu once again felt Lin Shiyi's presence.
Looking at the silent Tang Yu, Xila asked: "Have you thought about it? When do you plan to do it?"
Tang Yu looked at Xila's face, which was completely disfigured by the curse, and she tried to judge the true meaning of his words.
The answer came quickly: Sheila was indeed seeking death.
"Make a decision quickly. I can't guarantee that I will change my mind." Silla wiped off the black liquid on her body and said casually, "You know, I rarely reach a consensus with another guy in my body."
Tang Yu was silent for a moment before he said, "I'll do it as soon as possible."
She no longer insisted on saving Silla's life.
Just as Sheila said, removing the mutant core will not improve his current situation. The curse is like a disease. Although it comes from the outer gods, it is out of the control of the outer gods.
Even if Tang Yu really killed the Outer God in the end, the curse on Xila would not dissipate, and his body would remain dilapidated forever.
In a way, giving up is indeed a better option for him.
Tang Yu didn't expect Xila to agree so easily. All the "ingredients" on the recipe have been gathered, and now all that's missing is a feast to kill gods.
Tang Yu even had a preliminary idea about how to cook this dish. The pilgrimage feast in World 008 gave her inspiration.
The fires of countless undead souls would make the best stove fire, and Ning Xuanqing just happened to have awakened his spiritual perception, which he could use to communicate with those undead souls.
Tang Yu's fingers stroked the two gears of destiny on his wrists, and he chewed the word "destiny" carefully in his mouth.
Dean Lin's space gate, Tang En's gear of destiny, Xila's twisted core, those most important "ingredients" on the recipe, were actually connected to her in some way.
Including Ning Xuanqing who lit the stove fire.
How did you meet her in the first place?
Yes, thanks to Li Jia's good luck, the three of them met at a very ordinary mutton soup restaurant on Shiqing Street.
Then, fate began to quietly pluck the silk thread.
Everything is evolving towards this outcome in an orderly manner.
Is this a coincidence, or did the ancient god do it on purpose?
The recipe for the Outer Gods seemed to be for the benefit of humanity, but how could the Ancient Gods be so kind?
What kind of calculations does He imply?
