Chapter 355 354. Sigimund's Real Situation
Scarlet Spire, in the Duke's study.
Sigimund, who had become a little overweight, was sitting at a large desk, concentrating on writing and drawing on a piece of parchment, outlining and calculating a magic circle involving the field of soul purification.
Knock knock——
A cautious knock on the door interrupted his highly concentrated thoughts.
"Come in!" he responded without looking up.
The new adjutant pushed the door open and walked in, holding a square package engraved with sealing magic in his arms. He carefully placed the package on the empty space of the desk.
Sigimund raised his head from the complicated battle formation and glanced at the package with a hint of doubt: "What is this?"
"Sir, have you forgotten? This is the item you personally ordered to be delivered urgently with the highest priority through special channels." The adjutant answered respectfully. This was all he knew, and even he had no right to know the specific contents of the package.
Sigismund understood immediately that this must be something his "cohabitant" had obtained under his name.
"Take the records of its delivery route and all the people who handled it..." Sigismund spoke subconsciously, wanting to trace the source.
"Do you want to retrieve the detailed circulation records and the list of people who have come into contact with this item?" The adjutant immediately added in a considerate and professional manner.
However, Sigismund hesitated as the words reached his lips. He was silent for a moment, then changed his tone and said, "No need. You can go down."
A hint of surprise flashed across the adjutant's eyes, but he was very tactful and did not ask any more questions. He bowed and quietly left the study.
Sigismund had just wanted to trace the source of the package and try to follow the clues to find out the details of this "roommate" whose name he didn't even know.
But he quickly gave up this tempting idea.
Since it is currently impossible to expel the other party from one's body and soul, what is the point of finding out the source?
Instead, it may anger the other party and lead to more troublesome retaliation.
For example, last time, in order to curb his continued weight gain, he ordered all sugar products in the tower to be removed. What was the result?
When he regained control of his body, the extremely precious book he had been studying had been painted pure black, and no content could be seen at all.
But he was still a little curious and asked, "What's in it?"
That annoying but somewhat accustomed voice rang in his mind: "It's delicious, do you want to try it?"
Upon hearing this, Sigimund's mouth twitched and he was completely speechless.
He decisively shifted his gaze and returned his attention to the unfinished magic circle diagram, as if the mysterious package did not exist at all.
After several days of deduction and calculation, Sigimund finally perfected the soul purification magic circle in his hand, which was not extremely complicated but highly targeted.
He used the precious materials he had prepared long ago and personally drew the formation diagram on the floor of the secret ritual room at the bottom of the Scarlet Spire.
Throughout the entire process, Lin Jun did not interfere, but instead "watched" with great interest, absorbing new knowledge about souls and magic circles through Sigimund's senses.
When the magic circle was finally activated, a faint blue light lit up along the grooves, and a strange feeling flowed through the "spirits" of Sigimund and Lin Jun.
It’s an indescribable feeling of freshness, like digging burning fingers into a cool, clear mountain stream, bringing a moment of tranquility and cleansing.
After the momentary feeling of comfort faded, Lin Jun comforted her in time: "Xiaoxi, don't be discouraged, we will try another one next time!"
Sigimund ignored Lin Jun, but deep in his heart, he silently crossed out the possibility that Lin Jun was some kind of evil spirit that needed to be purified.
His hatred for Lin Jun had long been deep in his bones. This hatred was not only due to the other party's forceful invasion of his body, but also because of Lin Jun's almost humiliating and arrogant attitude of allowing him to find a solution!
How dare this damned being look down on him like that!
Sigismund swore in his heart that sooner or later he would make him pay a heavy price for his arrogance.
What he didn't know was that Lin Jun followed his actions not out of arrogance.
On the one hand, he didn't want to force Sigismund into a dead end and end up in a desperate situation.
On the other hand, it was because he really couldn't escape!
From the unique perspective of [Clairvoyance], not only was part of Sigimund's soul directly connected to Lin Jun's soul, but his entire spiritual essence seemed to be completely wrapped by Lin Jun.
Unless there is a way to instantly annihilate this part of Lin Jun's soul, Lin Jun can quickly squeeze it to death, just like the yellow book is doing now.
Regardless of how slim the possibility of instantly killing this part of Lin Jun's soul is, even if there really is such a method, Sigismund, who is closely connected with Lin Jun's soul, will never be safe and sound, and the ending will definitely be that they will die together.
Unfortunately, Sigimund himself does not have the ability of [clairvoyance]. Since the "strange dream" was cut off, he can no longer directly examine the tragic predicament of his own soul.
Lin Jun "kindly" did not point this out. After all, if this guy became completely desperate after knowing the truth and chose to give up or even commit suicide, then Lin Jun would suffer a great loss.
Sigimund began to think about the next magic ritual. At this moment, the magic bell on the top of the tower rang on time, indicating that it was time to transfer control of the body.
He felt his consciousness being gently pushed away, and the familiar feeling of peeling came, and control of his body fell into the hands of that hateful "roommate" again.
The moment control was transferred, "Sigimond's" body seemed to be injected with new vitality.
Lin Jun completely ignored the dignity of a duke and almost ran out of the room, running along the corridor back to the study, where the package was still there.
His inappropriate behavior attracted the attention of the guards and servants he met along the way.
After slamming the door shut, Lin Jun couldn't wait to open the package. Inside were several jars carefully sealed in magic bottles, and a deep and gorgeous dark red liquid was rippling in the bottles.
Lin Jun pried open the seal of a bottle, tilted his head back and took a big gulp.
The moment the liquid entered his mouth, an indescribable and extremely delicious taste instantly swept over his body, as if every cell was leaping for joy!
After enjoying it for a long time, Lin Jun half-paralyzed in the chair, licked the corner of his mouth, and sighed with satisfaction.
【Delicious LV8】, so this is what it feels like.
Lin Jun finally understood why they liked delicious mushrooms so much!
At this moment, Sigimund's question, filled with disbelief and even a hint of trembling, suddenly exploded in his mind. The intensity of this emotion almost broke the usual barrier between the two of them:
"What...what kind of blood is this? Where did you get it?!"
Lin Jun narrowed his eyes: "Don't you care?"
