Paradise: Ready Player One

"what are you talking about?"

"Don't try to lie to me, I know everything, including the fact that you took away Nadeshiko's organs and put them in the body of your team doll."

"..."

Akabane Tianquan fell silent, not knowing what to say.

Chen Ming's words completely disrupted all his original plans, but the matter had come to this point, and he could only ask helplessly in the end.

"How did you know?"

"This has nothing to do with you. You just need to know that we have the same position on the resurrection of Nadeko."

"Oh, that's true, but before that, let me see how far you have mastered your Red Wing Formation."

As soon as the words fell, Akabane Tianquan ejected the magic power line.

Chen Ming didn't show any weakness either. After these few days of familiarization, the speed at which he released the red wing array was not much worse than that of the opponent.

The magic power lines of the two sides collided together, and the next competition was the strength of skills and magic power.

The former is naturally better than Chibane Tianquan.

But with the advantage of the latter, Chen Ming still maintained the stalemate.

After more than a minute like this, the two sides reached a tacit understanding and stopped at the same time.

Akabane Tianquan looked at Chen Ming, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously. He didn't expect this day to come so early.

"Come with me"

"Where are you going?"

"Resurrect Nadeshiko and go"

"Are you in such a hurry? No need to prepare?"

"I have been preparing for this day for several years."

Akabane Tenquan put all the preparations in the underground ruins of the academy, which was originally the experimental site used by Edward Rutherford to resurrect his wife.

However, after the experiment failed, it was sealed up, and Akabane Tenquan discovered it and repurposed it.

On the way to the destination, Akabane Tianquan couldn't help telling the past, from the marriage between the Tumen clan and the Akabane clan, to the final destruction of the Akabane clan.

These things had been kept in his heart for a long time, and now that he confided it, his face couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed.

"At first, I thought the military department would send you to me, but I didn't expect you to be able to escape the restraint of the military department, but the result is good, maybe this indicates that my plan can be carried out successfully."

Akabane Tianquan led Chen Ming down the steps to the entrance of the underground ruins, raised his hand lightly, and sent a signal to the darkness in front of him, a row of flames continued horizontally, guiding the way ahead.

Chapter 127 What is the truth of the world

Although the dolls on both sides don't know what happened between their masters and masters, the current relationship between the enemy and us can still be judged, and they have put aside their respective hostility and walked together side by side.

There is no hatred between them, and they are even taboo dolls, so they naturally have a certain degree of intimacy with each other.

However, compared to the three Yeye sisters, the six dolls in the team seemed a bit colder, and they were taciturn along the way, just listening there.

This is also normal, these dolls are all made based on Nadeshiko's organs, once they are removed, there is basically no possibility of survival.

Akabane Tianquan was prepared to sacrifice the team from the very beginning, so he didn't put too much emotion into it, and used it as a tool when getting along with each other.

This largely affects the character of the team members, after all, their self-identity comes from their own masters.

Glancing at Huodao who had the same appearance as Nadeko, Chen Ming sighed lightly, and continued to follow behind Akabane Tenquan.

After a while, the two came to a secret room.

This is the room used to prepare for the resurrection ceremony. The entire magic formula is written on the floor, so complicated that even Chen Ming can only decipher half of the meaning.

Such a large and complicated magic ceremony cannot be completed by Akabane Tianquan alone, he must have his own helper in the academy.

But these are not important, so Chen Ming didn't ask in detail.

There is a large water tank in the center of the room. There are a lot of magic stones embedded in the base plate, and there are a lot of pipelines connected to the water tank below the ground.

"Let the ceremony begin"

Akabane Tianquan said calmly, he has calculated all the details of the ceremony in his heart countless times, and he has already engraved it in his heart, and there is no possibility of mistakes.

While speaking, without waiting for Chen Ming to answer, he reached out to the operating platform.

The device then started to work, and the sound of the gears "clicking" could be clearly heard in the room.

The sink opened slowly, revealing the contents inside, and Xiao Zi, who was looking around curiously, exclaimed in shock.

Chen Ming couldn't help but also took a look, feeling some physical discomfort.

The object in the sink is really a small mass of meat, but there are blue pipes floating on the surface of the meat, with white bones attached to the pipe, which barely looks like a spine, no matter how you look at it, it is creepy.

It seems that the upper bump of the skull is attached with undifferentiated flesh.

Just such an indescribable piece of meat, like a living creature, in the center, can see the obvious undulating rhythm similar to breathing.

Overall, it looks like a deformed fetus.

Weird and creepy.

Take a second look, I'm afraid I will have to cook three more bowls of rice tomorrow.

"You can't do anything to turn back your soul—that is the mystery of the Izanagi clan, and it is also the truth of the magic world."

Akabane Tianquan explained on his own, there was no slight repulsion in his eyes because of the deformity of this piece of meat, and he could even see an unspeakable heat.

Just like an artist seeing his most proud work.

Even if Chen Ming opened his eyes, he couldn't see through the composition and principle of this piece of meat.

This is no longer in the category of ingenious magic, but originated from the Japanese Onmyoji.

It should have been learned when Akabane Tianquan joined the Tumen clan.

The so-called "reverse soul" is actually resurrection,

And the "truth" is that the dead cannot be resurrected.

Although Chen Ming didn't know what this lump of meat had to do with the resurrection, in the original plot, if it wasn't for avoiding the pursuit and using teleportation magic to cause a deviation in the ritual, the resurrection might have been successful.

Thinking about the fact that there are no accidents in the plot this time, there should be no more accidents, right?

Akabane Tenzen continued his explanation, with an unconcealable pride in his tone. As a puppet maker, this will be his last and also his greatest work.

A piece of work that breaks the truth!

"It is the truth of the world that the dead cannot be brought back to life. The truth cannot be overthrown. Not even Master Domon or Hanayuzaiyin can do it."

This so-called truth sounds like nonsense. It is impossible for the dead to be resurrected.

Well, just like the people at the beginning firmly believed that it was impossible for people to soar in the sky.

But the very existence of magic is to break the impossible.

It's just that only in front of this "truth", the mighty power of magic is extremely pale and powerless.

The genius Ruhua Liusai also lost all fighting spirit in the face of the "truth" in this world.

Chen Ming, who has stepped into the top of the magic world, naturally knows the weight of the word "truth". Perhaps only the magic that represents "miracle" can shake it.

"You're talking about the first generation Hanayuzai, right?"

"That's right, the man created it from his wife's body, but it can only be said to be a copy of his wife. It is said that the first generation Hananayanagi Glass realized this truth at that moment and lost all interest in making dolls." interest"

Akabane Tianquan said, his eyes burst into a strong light, even his team had never seen such an emotional release from his master.

"But even the truth has loopholes, as long as the resurrected object is not dead."

After saying this, Chen Ming and Akabane Tianquan looked at the six puppets of the team together.

Akabane Tenzen pointed at Bee's chest, and then at the members of the team in turn.

"The heart is in the bee, the sensory organs are in the sickle, the muscle fibers are in the dragonfly, the digestive organs are in the jade worm, the nervous system is in the spider, and the brain is stored here."

Akabane Tenquan's finger finally rested on Huo Dian's forehead.

Although Huo Chui's face was slightly blue, but her expression was firm, she had known all this for a long time.

Use living parts as raw materials for dolls to ensure their survival.

That is to say, part of Nadeko's body is still alive, so from a certain point of view, she is not really dead, but is in the gap between life and death.

This is the loophole Akabane Tenzu found in "truth".

In fact, at the very beginning, Akabane Tenquan's method of resurrection was not like this.

At that time, he thought that the consciousness of the human body was hidden in the brain, so he tried to transplant Nadeshiko's brain into another individual, and tried to see if this could complete the resurrection.

But obviously things won't be that simple.

Perhaps in other worlds, the consciousness of the human body is indeed placed on the brain.

But this world is different. This world has a soul in the true sense, and that is where the consciousness rests. After a person dies, the soul returns to the unknown.

The birth and origin of the soul has always been a completely unknown territory for this world, just like taboo dolls like Nitro Yaye.

Even though it is a man-made puppet, it can give birth to a new soul and consciousness.

"Then what are you going to do in exchange for Nadeko's soul?"

Chen Ming actually knew the answer to this question a long time ago, but he still asked Akabane Tianquan's gaze to satisfy his elder brother's desire to teach.

"The soul has not been fully analyzed, but as long as the principle of 'replacement' magic is used, its soul can be exchanged from an unknown place"

"But even if you successfully exchanged Nadeko's soul into reality, you still need to capture it and place it in a new body, so this is why you need me, right?"

Chen Ming then said, in this world, the only one who can touch the soul is probably the Red Wing Formation of the Akabane Clan.

Akabane Tianquan glanced at Chen Ming approvingly, and then said with a serious expression.

"Then let's get started!"

Chapter 128 Touching the Soul

"After the operation begins, the position of the parts must be configured by the "false group". Once it enters the "real group" stage, the magic circle will automatically activate the healing magic to "glue" the parts together, so you just need to be yourself It should be done, and the rest will be left to the magic ceremony to complete by itself.”
