Endless Debt.

Chapter 210 Too Close

There are two major mysteries in Burogo's life, one is why he came to this world, and the other is who is the devil who traded with him?
Unlike the tyrant and the scarlet mistress, these two devils can contact each other in many ways, even face-to-face communication, but the devil who traded away his soul is different. Since the day Bologo became a debtor, he It disappeared and never appeared in front of my eyes.

Burrog forgot the content of the transaction at that time, and only remembered that the transaction took place during the battle of the Fall of the Holy City, but it was many years later when the transaction was completed and he woke up again.

The memory became blurred and broken, and he couldn't even remember the appearance of the devil, as if the devil had never existed.

At first Bologo didn't pay much attention to it, but as he got to know the world, he realized vigilantly that all the disputes seemed to originate from the fall of the holy city, and he became a debtor in the fall of the holy city .

It was hard for Borrog not to connect it all, making him take the devil all the more seriously.

After repeated guessing, Bologo sometimes began to suspect that his ability to absorb soul fragments might not be some kind of special gift...

Just like those flesh-eaters, after receiving the protection of the scarlet mistress, can heal their bodies by devouring flesh and blood, is it also a kind of protection of the devil to absorb soul fragments by themselves?
Gifts and blessings coexist.

Burlogo doesn't see an example of this in The Devil and the Electric Guitar How-To, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

There is also the nihilistic world that you will see after you die.

Bologo feels that everything is meaningful, and he will not come to that world inexplicably. Even if it is nothingness, it must have its own meaning, and these two will be the clues for him to chase the devil.

"You're a queer man, Bologo."

Taida looked at Bologo lying flat on the operating table, probably because the undead are relatively insensitive to pain and danger, and sometimes Burlogo's thoughts are really hard for Teda to understand.

"But let me tell you first, I can conduct a soul test, but if you want to conduct a trial, you need to go back to the Bureau of Order, where there are enough alchemy materials."

Taida said that he fixed Burlogo's limbs firmly with a belt, and then put electrode patches on his body, densely packed lines covered Burlogo's body.

"I remember that the Bureau of Order will provide alchemy materials for free until I am promoted to a prayer believer." Burogo said.

"It's like this. The alchemy materials needed for the subsequent promotion of the believers are extremely expensive and rare, so you need to work hard on your own."

Taida explained while busy, "Different alchemists will also propose different alchemy materials, so the materials required for promotion are not fixed."

"I don't know about these. My knowledge of these knowledge is limited to the "Golden Discourse." Burogo said.

"Then you are indeed a little ignorant. In the eyes of us alchemists, the "Gold Discourse" is just a catalog of knowledge... Then do you know the specific principle of promotion?" Teda remembered something and asked Burogo.

The field of vision was covered by the overhead light, and everything was white. Burrog couldn't see Taida's face clearly, only a blurry figure.

"After the triple trial, the sublimator's body, mind, and spirit have been further strengthened, and become closer to the ether. The promotion will sublimate the three together with the alchemy matrix, like a metal transformation."

Burrog recalled the knowledge explained in the book.

"Then do you know what the alchemy materials consumed in the promotion ceremony are used for?" Taida asked again.

"I don't know," Burlogo shook his head, he didn't know these things, "what is it used for?"

"I do not know either."

Teda's answer was surprising, and Burlogo looked at the blurred figure and cast doubtful eyes.

"I'm not very good at describing this thing... We can produce different effects through the combination of different alchemy materials, but in the promotion ceremony, the connection between the alchemy materials and the sublimation person is pitiful." Taida said.

"Alchemy materials don't work on Sublimation?"

"Almost, compared to Sublimation, the connection between alchemy materials and the 'Secret Source' is more in-depth. It is like a ticket. Using expensive alchemy materials will open the way to the 'Secret Source', so that you can get the 'Secret Source'." Source' power to complete the promotion." TEDA said.

"You mean, when I was promoted, I would briefly come into contact with the 'secret source'?"

Burrog's curiosity was fully aroused.

secret source.

This is the ultimate source of all ether, far more mysterious than the devil.

Alchemists believe that the "secret source" is the sum of all truths in the world, while sublimationists believe that if they obtain the "secret source", they will gain supreme power.

It exists silently in nothingness, but it is more tempting than the devil.

"When every sublimation person is promoted, your connection with the 'Secret Source' will be infinitely closer. Although this connection is very short-lived, even if you can't even notice it yourself, it is true."

"It's like the triple trial, isn't it? The more we etherize ourselves, the closer we are to the 'secret source', that is to say..." Before Bologo could finish speaking, Taida interrupted him.

"Yes, every time you are promoted, the sublimation practitioner will get a chance to meet the 'secret source'. The higher the sublimation practitioner, the more they can feel the existence of the 'secret source' and the closer the connection .”

TEDA turned to another name, with full respect in his voice.

"Do you know why alchemists admire King Solomon so much?"

"He is the master of alchemy, and his mastery of alchemy has reached an unprecedented peak. Some people even think that he has mastered the truth...that is, the 'secret source'."

Bologo said what he knew about King Solomon, and because King Solomon was infinitely close to the "secret source", everyone chose to destroy him by coincidence.

The information on the Fall of the Holy City was strictly blocked, and it was buried together with the secrets of King Solomon. For this reason, the information that Bologo knew was sorted out from the books of the Bureau of Order.

After so many years and many blockades, he has not received much information, and it is difficult to judge whether it is true or not.

"More than that," Taida added, "King Solomon is also a powerful Sublimator."

Bologo thought of something, his eyes were full of disbelief, when Teda's voice sounded faintly.

"He is not only a master of alchemy, but also a man of glory."

There is no need for TEDA to tell what to say next, Bologo has already guessed it.

"Is this the reason for the destruction of the sacred city?" Bologo's voice trembled a little.

"At least, judging from the information that I, the Director of Sublimation Furnace Core, had access to, as well as my various personal inferences, this is the case."

Taida started the ceremony as he spoke, the alchemy matrix glowed on the operating table, and golden dust spread everywhere in his field of vision.

"King Solomon got too close to the 'Secret Source'.

So near that he was bestowed with that divine crown. "

the crowned one.

It was too late for Bologo to ask anything. The ceremony had already started, and there was a sharp pain like a needle piercing a broken bone, and dim arcs of light emerged from his body, appearing in Taida's eyes one by one.

In fact, what many people have not noticed is what the soul looks like. Some people think that the soul is an illusory spirit body similar to themselves, but Taida is very clear that the soul is actually a group of rays of light without a definite form.

The reason why the soul has the same appearance as a human in the ceremony is that the soul has a reflection of the body. When the body dies, the soul loses its restraint and dissipates.

If only this could be reversed...

If the body can bind the soul again...

Taida didn't continue to think about it, but focused on the test of Bologo, and the illusory light gradually became clear. Compared with the souls of others, Bologo's soul will undoubtedly be much dimmer.

This is normal. After all, his soul is incomplete. After careful observation, slender traces are entangled in it, which is the alchemy matrix engraved on the soul.

The golden dust began to fall and spread evenly on the illusory light. The light of the spirit body was very stable, and there was no phenomenon of collapse and reorganization, which showed that Bologo's soul was unexpectedly stable.

"It's so strange, how long has it been since you were promoted to Sublimator, and your soul is so stable, or is it the nature of immortality that makes your soul extremely tough?"

Teda wondered, but Burlogo didn't respond to his words.

His eyes turned to Boluoge, only then did TEDA realize that Boluogo had already closed his eyes, his face was pale and covered in cold sweat.

Looking at the electrocardiogram on one side, the ups and downs on it had long since disappeared, and instead turned into a straight line moving steadily forward, with long beeps echoing in my ears.

……

Opening his eyes, the coldness and deep cold permeated every part of his body. He raised his hand, and there were tiny icicles hanging between the palm lines.

Borrog once again returned to this void world, where huge rocks collided and rubbed against each other, and dim or brilliant lights traveled around.

Every time he died, Bologo could see this scene, but usually, he couldn't walk in this dead world for long, and even if he wanted to explore, he couldn't do it.

The most amazing thing is that it is very difficult for Burrog to retain the memory of the afterlife.

Everything he experienced here was like a wonderful dream to Burlogo. After waking up, he would vaguely remember the scene of the afterlife, but the picture was always vague and unreal.

During the implantation ceremony, he remembered that he had come to the afterlife, and that time he seemed to have watched a movie here. As for the content of the movie, Bologo couldn't remember clearly at all.

Everything is broken and blurred, completely dissipating after waking up from the dream.

But after thinking about it later, Bologo discovered one thing. Under the normal death situation, he would only stay here for a short time. Although the memory of the implantation ceremony was not clear, Bologo was sure , I have stayed here for a long time.

After a simple exclusion, Burrog thought that when the soul was affected and died, he could stay here for a long time.

Now it seems that Bologo's conjecture is correct, so the rest is to look for it.

Burrog looked out into the dead world.

Look for clues related to the devil.
