Alien Knights

Todd, who was stagnant in the sea water, looked at the giant creature that looked like a hill at his feet, and replied: "Yes, I do have some questions about the soul link..."

Leviathan's body was swimming slowly, and a dull voice filled every corner of the sea: "Follow me."

Todd flapped his dragon wings, followed Leviathan effortlessly, and slowly swam with him deeper into the ocean.

After swimming for a long time, a ray of light suddenly appeared on the originally deep and dark seabed.

Todd looked at the seabed below through the dragon's vision, and unexpectedly, he saw a city glowing with light.

Todd took a closer look at the city, and there were humanoid creatures with human upper body and fish body lower body everywhere in the city. These creatures are very much like the mermaids in previous works. The females are beautiful and graceful; the males are tall, strong and powerful. Some of these people are planting some kelp-like crops on the coral reefs, some are stocking and feeding a group of transparent and colorful jellyfish, and all of them are busy in this underwater city.

Todd turned his gaze to Leviathan and asked in surprise, "These people are...?"

Leviathan didn't respond to Todd's question, but swam his body and slowly approached the city.

The mermaids looked overhead and finally found the existence of Leviathan. While cheering, they returned home and took out various utensils, swimming towards the latter.

Thousands of mermaids surrounded Leviathan, while swimming, they sent their warmest greetings to this behemoth.

Some murlocs put containers full of fresh food into Leviathan's tentacles; some murlocs used the tools in their hands to carefully clean Leviathan's body.

Todd, who was following Leviathan, also attracted a large number of curious murlocs because of the shape of the dragon.

Some daring murloc children even swam under Todd's dragon wings, touched the shiny dragon scales, and expressed sincere admiration.

Leviathan didn't stop, and kept swimming forward quietly.

However, Todd, who was following behind him, could feel a deep...sorrow from this silent behemoth.

The enthusiastic murlocs followed Leviathan for a long time and did not stop their fins until they were far away from the city.

Todd looked back at the large group of murlocs behind him. Everyone was watching Leviathan leave, and many people were still shouting something excitedly.

Leviathan and Todd swam for a while, and finally they could no longer see the group of murlocs.

The latter asked the former full of doubts, "Now you can tell me what's going on?"

Leviathan's voice was low and sad: "The murlocs you see are all wandering souls."

Hearing this, Todd was startled, and quickly asked: "Wait a minute! You mean, there are a lot of souls living in your soul space?"

"Skaha should have told you that the so-called soul is a form of dark matter. Due to death or other reasons, once the soul leaves the physical body, it will exist in the world in the form of free dark energy. But this Energy is very unstable, and under the influence of particles, force fields, or fluctuations, it will lose its original structure and become more discrete." Leviathan paused for a moment, and then said: "In this case, it is In your previous life, it was commonly known as "the soul is scattered"."

Todd sighed: "So, you use the soul space as a container to protect these souls that may dissipate at any time. But, I don't understand, how did you do it?"

Leviathan replied: "Dark matter is the starting point of creating a universe. In chaos, the condensation of dark matter will form a singularity. This singularity, under the influence of dark energy, will form a creative explosion and form a new The plane universe. And a soul made of dark matter can completely simulate the result of the explosion of the dark energy singularity, and finally form a new plane space.”

"If the soul is not strong enough, the newly formed space will collapse completely in a very short period of time; but if the soul is strong enough, it will form a stable space for development and occupancy."

Todd asked: "How did these souls live in this space?"

Leviathan said: "It's very simple, the answer is the ability of soul link. Originally, the soul of each creature is like a wave band of different frequencies, and there will be no intersection with each other. But soul link can adjust the dark energy of the linked person structure and incorporate it into the user's soul space."

Speaking of this, Todd suddenly remembered, as if it really happened.

Boyle's soul once lived in his soul space for a period of time, and then dissipated because of exhaustion of energy.

"Compared to the souls of the dead, you can also use soul links to forcibly deprive the souls of the living and imprison them in your own soul space. But this kind of behavior requires more powerful soul power, and it will also bring a lot of damage. series of unstable factors." Leviathan said: "The most stupid and direct way to establish a soul link with a living body is through a direct physical connection... For example, inserting a part of your own body directly into the nervous system of the subject .”

"But in fact, there is a far simpler and more effective method than this, and that is the 'soul seed'."

"Seed of the soul?"

"Separate a small part of the dark matter in your body, and bury it in living things or objects like sowing seeds. After that, all living things that touch the things that are sown will automatically complete the soul link with you, and transmit their consciousness into the Into your soul space."

Todd suddenly realized: "It's like a virus infection. When an individual is infected with the virus, he can spread the virus to other members through contact."

Leviathan reminded: "Although this method can quickly complete the soul link, it will also greatly increase the burden on the user. Although you have now got rid of the human race, in my opinion, your body is still fragile. Your soul power is as weak as a candle. If you perform a large number of soul links, it will even trigger the complete collapse of the soul space."

Todd nodded and replied: "I understand, I will proceed with caution...and one last question, can I introduce the souls of those who died in the past into my soul space for protection like you do now?"

Leviathan was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I don't recommend you to do this. Because, compared to completing the link with a soul, residing a soul in one's own soul space, the latter behavior, There are higher requirements for the strength of soul power. Think about it, a soul with autonomous consciousness enters your space, every action and every word he makes will consume your dark energy and affect you The balance of dark matter in the body."

Todd looked back and asked strangely: "Then why did you introduce so many souls into your own space?"

"Because they are all..." Leviathan stopped speaking after only half a sentence, without saying a word.

After a long time, this giant said something like this: "I have my reasons, but even if I tell you now, you won't understand... One day, when you are in the same situation as me, don't need me to explain, You will naturally understand why I did this."

After saying this, Leviathan sent Todd out of his soul space and closed the soul door.
