On the Seven Towers

Master Bella, who was about to launch an attack, opened her mouth and stood there stiffly. She never thought that there would be any magic that could penetrate her many layers of shields and give her a fatal blow when she was already fully prepared.

This is not only because the Soul Thorn is a holy weapon, but also because Master Kona improved the Soul-Destroying Arrow, which is a spiritual magic with specially enhanced penetration, and most of Bella's shields are prepared for elemental damage and physical damage. If it were Master Gordon, who is good at elemental magic, even if he had a holy weapon of the same level as the Soul Thorn, he would probably not be able to break through Bella's defense.

But in any case, Xiao Chen and Kona's simple little calculation was successful. The magician in the layers of shields will also greatly weaken the sensitivity to magic fluctuations, not to mention that in such a small space, everyone has large and small magic fluctuations on their bodies. It is not easy to find the sneak attacker hidden in the crowd.

Xiao Chen picked up the fallen thorn of the mind, endured the severe pain and dizziness of Master Kona's soul reentering his meditation space, and shouted: "Kill them!"

Without his order, the attacks of many of his own mages had gathered into a torrent of magic and rushed towards the team led by Ature. Xiao Chen was drowsy and vaguely saw that under the cover of magic, the golem Gama led a group of ghost warriors to launch a charge. And he himself was hugged by a soft body: "Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen, how are you? Elena. Come and see what's going on?"

"He overdrew his mental power, and then Master Kona returned to the meditation space and shook his meditation space."

"But once he is unconscious, we can't support it for long. Ah! Elena, your body has become transparent."

"Not good, we will also be forced to return to the space."

"Xiao Chen! You have to hold on! Xiao Chen!"

The return of Elena and Tasia became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and Xiao Chen fainted completely this time.

"Xiao Chen! Xiao Chen!" Xiao Chen opened his eyes, his expression a little confused. But the voice in his ears made him more alert. This voice was Luo Ling. He opened his eyes and saw a modern ceiling lamp.

"This is..." He turned his head to look to the side, and saw Luo Ling kneeling on the bed in a suspender pajamas, looking at him with some worry.

"So, it turned out that you are here." Luo Ling showed a little embarrassment on her face, grabbed the silk nightgown at the head of the bed and put it on her body. Xiao Chen looked at her in the light, and her face seemed to be very red.

"It seems... it seems that your relationship has progressed to a certain extent." Xiao Chen touched his nose and said, "Should I say congratulations?"

"Stop talking nonsense and put on your clothes." After saying this, Luo Ling got out of bed and walked out of the room.

Xiao Chen touched himself and only had a pair of shorts. He couldn't help but wonder if this hadn't started yet, or had it ended?

The two were in the living room, Xiao Chen drank a drink and briefly described the situation over there.

"So, you didn't come here through meditation this time?" Luo Ling sat on the sofa, hugging a pillow. After listening to Xiao Chen's story, she immediately grasped the key to the problem.

"Yes. I was in a coma. Forcibly accepting Master Kona's soul seemed to have exhausted my mental power, and the meditation space was also greatly shaken. I don't know how I came here. I spent a lot of effort to succeed in the previous few times of crossing. I think it doesn't make sense that I came here so easily this time." Xiao Chen said.

The two pondered for a while, and Luo Ling said, "I do have an idea. In fact, he, that is, you here, seems to have started to connect with you. He said that he often felt some vague images in his dreams, such as huge trees, or mysterious towers, and some alien images, such as elves and dwarves, and many battle scenes."

"From your description, he may have seen real things. It should be some scenes I saw when I visited the Elf Kingdom and in the capital."

"So, maybe... you have been connected in some way across the world." Luo Ling said, "I even dreamed of the collapse of a tower recently."

"This... did you see the destruction of the Tower of Shining Wings?"

Luo Ling waved to the bookcase in the living room, and a sketchbook flew into her hand, "Look, this is what I drew based on my dream."

Xiao Chen took a look and saw that it was a manuscript drawn in pencil. A tower was collapsing, and two figures flew out of the tower. This is very consistent with the scene described by Luo Ling in that world that night.

"Are you saying that our consciousness is actually connected to our selves in another world?" Xiao Chen asked.

"Not everyone, just you and me. Maybe this requires a lot of conditions, and you, who have the heart of a traveler, just meet this requirement."

"Then how do you want to explain what happened today?"

Luo Ling tilted her head slightly, as if thinking: "If you compare the two sides of your body to two houses, there was no passage between the houses, so there was no communication. But now there is a road connecting them, and you have come to visit several times. So if one day your house is hit by a disaster and cannot be lived in temporarily, what would you think?"

Xiao Chen said: "Stay in a good house on the other side?"

"Yes! I think your meditation world was damaged, and you might have fallen into a real coma, but now your consciousness has another choice, so you traveled through time."

Xiao Chen nodded. Luo Ling's guess was not unreasonable, and it seemed to contain some very important information.

"Also, I asked this question last time. If you come here, where did he go?"

"Anyway, it's not over there. The people over there said that I seemed to be asleep. There must be no one who replaced me and let me move. This is not a story of soul swapping." Xiao Chen said, "Maybe he was suppressed by me in a corner of my mind?"

"Have you ever thought of another possibility..." Luo Ling showed an inquiring look on her face, "Could it be that you and he merged into one, but this consciousness is mainly based on you, and his memory is just temporarily forgotten in a corner?"

"Why do you have such a strange idea?"

"If someone invades your head in that world, for example, like the body possession mentioned in the novel. Wouldn't you know?" Luo Ling made a hypothesis.

"How is this possible? I am a very powerful magician after all, and I am very sensitive to mental power." Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed, "You mean, if he is here, I can already feel his presence? Hmm... that makes sense."

"So, this is a very simple logical inference. Since he is not there, and your mental power is so strong, but you can't feel him here, then the most likely answer is: You are him!"
