On the Seven Towers

When Mollett opened his eyes again, he found that he was not dead yet. It was bright around him. It took him a long time to adjust his eyes to the light outside. In front of him was a blue sky with a few clouds floating in the sky.

Before, he had never noticed that the sky had so many layers, from the sky blue at the edge to the royal blue in the middle, and the highest point was deep blue. If it weren't for those clouds, looking up at the sky would make people feel like looking down at a deep pool of water.

He also saw the trees around him. The crowns of those trees were all golden yellow. A gust of wind blew and a few leaves fell down. It seemed that it was autumn.

He reached out and felt his body and found that his body was intact without any wounds. His condition could be described as perfect, as if the previous serious illness or assassination was a real nightmare. He was not wearing armor for battle, but ordinary cloth. What was going on?

Mollett sat up and found himself lying in a pile of fallen leaves. The surrounding area was really a sparse autumn forest. He didn't know where he was, but he couldn't help laughing. He sat on the ground and laughed louder and louder until he was panting.

Only those who have died know that when consciousness is about to leave, nothing matters anymore, as long as you are alive. If Mollett knew the idiom "surviving a disaster", he would definitely think it is the most appropriate to describe his current state.

"Are you laughing like crazy?" Mollett heard a voice behind him.

He looked back and saw that the young officer who was pierced by him but disappeared without a trace was walking over from a hillside behind him. He was not wearing a military uniform, but a strange shirt commonly seen among Chinese people. He had no weapons in his hands, but his hands were in his trouser pockets, looking at him with a bit of sarcasm.

"Luo Ling is really a powerful guy. When did I fall into the illusion? Where did you send me with space magic?" Morlett stood up and patted his body with both hands. "It is true that my black water disease was cured, but what method did you use to seal my fighting spirit?

I thought that you should be more generous with the method of curing black water disease. Can't you just talk about the problem openly? You have to play tricks like this. What do you want to do?"

"It seems that you still don't realize your situation." The young officer said. He walked up to Morlett and looked at him without showing weakness. "You are dead, at least your body is completely gone. After you died, Luo Ling led your soul here, and you became what you are now."

"Here? Where is this?" Morlett asked.

The young officer said, "This is Luo Ling's meditation world, a spiritual world generated by her will, and your soul, in this world, forms a body. Although it looks flesh and blood, it is just the embodiment of some souls."

"What a joke? Only gods have the ability to revive the souls of the dead in the kingdom of God! Are you telling me that Luo Ling is a god?" Morlett was a little annoyed, and poked his chest with his hand, "If there is anything, we can say it directly. Playing such tricks is an insult to a noble."

The young officer slapped his hand away and sneered, "Come and see, you will give up soon."

As he said that, he walked out of the forest first.

Morlett had no fighting spirit, and his strength was comparable to that of the other party. He knew that he could not subdue the other party and force him to tell the truth here. There would be no result if he continued to talk here, so he followed the officer out of the forest.

The young officer took him to a stream, glanced back at him and said, "Come and see for yourself."

Molett didn't know what the other party meant. He hesitated and came to the stream. He looked down and was surprised by the face reflected in the water.

The image in the stream was of course himself, but he was at least twenty years younger than his original appearance. This was his appearance when he was in his twenties. He hadn't seen this appearance for a long time. At this time, he also felt some of his physical feelings. Although fighting spirit can keep people strong at an older age, masters like him can still feel the subtle differences brought by aging. He raised his arm and clenched his fist.

Sure enough, there was a long-lost vitality hidden in this body.

He looked up at the officer standing aside and murmured, "This... this can't happen in reality."

"Finally realized it? Everything I just told you is true." The young officer said, "Your current body is generated according to the best physical state of your life. There is no aging here, and you will continue to exist like this. Because this is the spiritual world of Mage Luo Ling, as long as she exists, you will exist."

Molett looked at his younger hands repeatedly, and asked after a long time, "But what am I now? A wandering soul without a body? Or a ghost that is not dead? Or... a thought in someone else's mind?"

The young officer said, "Spirit servant."

"What? Spirit what?" Obviously Molett didn't understand what a spirit servant was.

"A servant living in someone else's soul, if you need an explanation." The officer said, "usually living in the mage's meditation world, can be projected into reality by the mage when necessary, with a body made of magic power, and can fight for the mage."

"Wait a minute, could it be said that you... all of you are just Luo Ling's spiritual attendants?" Molliet suddenly understood. The young man in front of him is also a spiritual attendant. No wonder he can disappear without a trace after being attacked. "Luo Ling said, "Is this the way to get you rid of black water disease?"

Your bodies have all died in the real world? The bodies that are fighting us are all improvised, so you are not afraid of being infected by black water disease, nor are you afraid of death. And then she treated me and my subordinates this way? "

The young officer nodded and said, "It seems you finally understand."

"What about my subordinates? Why are there only two of us here?" Mollett asked.

"You are just the first person whose soul was collected by Luo Ling. Soon you will see one soul after another being pulled in here."

Mollett said: "I just want to know one question now, why is all this happening?"
