Chapter 671 Where has the heart gone?
"Ha?" Unexpectedly, Yi Xiao showed a more surprised expression than him and asked, "Isn't my heart here?"
Lucifer obviously had no time to answer Yi Xiao's question. Bobo's blood flowed out along the wound on Yi Xiao's chest. Even if the wizard had some ways to save his life without immediately dying, Yi Xiao's vitality was still passing away quickly.
And at this time there was another more important question placed in front of Lucifer, that is, whether he wanted to control Yi Xiao or kill him, the most important thing, Yi Xiao's heart, was gone.
Lucifer's dagger did not feel a trace of life force in Yi Xiao's chest. After his hands touched the chest, it was empty. Whether in the energy level or the physical level, Yi Xiao's heart completely disappeared from his chest.
There is no reason, but it seems that I have prepared for it.
But Yi Xiao would not be dazed with Lucifer. Even if Lucifer couldn't think of it, he didn't want to die. The part of Yi Xiao being stabbed by Lucifer's dagger suddenly changed and stretched like a long stretched by the Haha mirror, and then separated from the attack of the dagger.
A way to use the transforming spell, Yi Xiao can change any part of his body at will, use it to avoid attacks, or twist himself into a strange shape to scare Winnie.
To be honest, it would be quite scary if humans were distorted and scared them.
But at this time, Yi Xiao obviously used this method to avoid Lucifer's fatal attack. As Yi Xiao fled back quickly, the items around him jumped away as if they had seen something terrible, making Yi Xiao quickly distance from Lucifer.
Yi Xiao, who successfully retreated for a while, gained a firm foothold and his face was particularly pale.
This is not surprising. After all, there was a big hole in his chest, and the blood like a waterfall was flowing out, and a little muscle or vein-like thing was rumbling outside Yi Xiao's wound.
If Yi Xiao hadn't been drinking some reserve therapeutic potions in recent years just in case, he might have lost too much blood at this time.
Yi Xiao was under the wizard's robe... at this time he pulled out his left and right armor, and then suddenly pulled out a heart-shaped fist-sized organ, which looked bloody. Not only was the ancient and strange, but it was also particularly bloody and ferocious.
Lucifer, who had not moved, suddenly lit up his eyes, as if he had new motivation, but Yi Xiao obviously understood what he was thinking about when he saw it. So he mercilessly exposes his hope again.
"It looks like... your plan is not going well." Yi Xiao said vaguely, because as he said, he was gnawing at the heart-shaped organ.
The plasma-like juice splashed out and sprayed on Yi Xiao's mouth, making his face full of his face. As he chewed every bite, large streams of blood splattered out, leaving large blood mists in the air.
However, as Yi Xiao swallowed his big mouth, the wounds in his chest were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even after he ate half of his heart, most of the wounds had healed.
Looking at Lucifer who was a little dazed, Yi Xiao pretended to realize, "Oh. You don't think this is my heart, let alone he is not, even if it is, I wouldn't be stupid enough to take it out."
This is indeed not Yi Xiao's heart, because even if Yi Xiao needs to transplant the heart back, he probably won't choose such a curious way to eat it. This is a kind of creature on Dream Island.
To be precise, it is a plant of some kind.
Dream Island is a big island. Of course, this is only relative to the two of them. But as the core of all sub-worlds of the Second World, there has never been an outsider here except for Yi Xiao, the manager and Winnie, who came with him.
There are only some magic creatures from different worlds, because of their own magic, often encounter cracks and turbulent worlds and then get lost in the Neverland.
Not all magical creatures are created by the second world using fantasy energy, and there are many that originally exist. In other words, they live in the original world and exist earlier than the second world.
When the last era was destroyed, many magical creatures who stood on the human side also chose to enter the second world and live in the second world. This is also the origin of most magical creatures in the second world.
Because of their authenticity, their magic power is very strong. Because their magic power is real. Although the second world can also be simulated, it is only acquired cultivation after all. These magic creatures are also good references for the second world to cultivate and activate the power of wizards in humans.
Therefore, they encounter turbulence in the second world far exceeds that of humans.
However, in addition to being able to touch them, there are occasionally many strange things that can be mixed in, such as corpses.
That's right, it's the corpse. Yi Xiao still remembers the first time he encountered the corpse. It was very early. Maybe in the first year he came to Neverland, he was startled at that time and thought that others would enter Neverland. He immediately worried about Winnie's comfort, because Winnie was not old at that time, and even though he had learned swordsmanship with Green for a while, he was still a little girl.
But Yi Xiao soon discovered that they were all corpses, to be precise, they had died before they arrived at Dream Island.
There are men and women, people from all ages have them, their clothes and shapes are different, and their age is not fixed. Fortunately, although Neverland often moves corpses back, the number is not large, and there may be only a few in a year, otherwise Neverland will become a corpse island.
Yi Xiao didn't know what these guys had in common, but he suspected that it might destroy a certain balance in the second world, so the second world found some way to kill them. After all, the second world is conscious. In a sense, Gaia, it is estimated that the son of the world also exists.
And Yi Xiao is now accepting the mission of Dream Island, and each world collects world energy.
However, although there are not many corpses, Yi Xiao is still a little bored when he looks at it. After all, Neverland is not big. Winnie, who is running around, might fall on the corpse in the forest one day. Although corpses are not unfamiliar to Winnie, who lives in the 17th century, they can definitely be called a childhood nightmare.
So a strange crack appeared again on Dream Island. After the body was still at the restaurant of Red Castle, Yi Xiao finally couldn't help but start looking for the setting of the corpse in the hourglass.
Fortunately, he was lucky, so he quickly threw these corpses to the bottom of the high cliff, which is in the canyon and in the black cliffs of the Black Valley.
But when Yi Xiao went to patrol somewhere after a while, he discovered a strange phenomenon.
That is why these people came back to life.
To be precise, it was parasitic.
There are no living creatures in the Black Cliff. Even if there are, most of them are dark creatures and negative energy creatures. However, there are trees in the Black Valley. Plants are always very tenacious and can grow anywhere.
However, even plants are not normal for growing in the Black Valley. Except for a few people who have withered for countless years and still half-dead, Yi Xiao doubts why they are still undead, most of them are human-eater plants. Of course, there are no people on the Dream Island, so they hunt animals that are also magical creatures.
And one of them is the one that occupies these corpses.
They parasitize on the bodies of these people, control them, and drive them.
This creature looks like a tree on the outside, but it is definitely not a tree because the trees all have branches. Those branches are their trunks and support them to transport nutrients and make the trees flourish and thriving.
But they don't have branches and leaves all over their bodies, and they don't have torso. They look like fences that gather together, and they don't know how they grow normally.
These plants can expand because each branch and leaf is connected, and after fully unfolding, it can even surround the Black Valley. This is also their way of attack, because these branches are far less fragile and hard than they look, but are very resilient.
However, when they were entrenched on these corpses, they obviously changed their ways again. They took root on the ground and wrapped the corpses in, revealing only their faces and limbs outside, and their torso and arms were wrapped in dense and black branches and leaves, which looked particularly hideous and terrifying.
And after human corpses joined, they were obviously much more flexible. When Yi Xiao first captured them, they even pulled themselves out of the soil and ran away.
Human corpses that have not had a soul that have long died for a long time are useless, but it is obviously completely different to become a new type of magic creature. Yi Xiao immediately began to study them, but because of the small number, the research has not been smooth, but even so, Yi Xiao discovered a lot of interesting things.
For example... they have very powerful and abundant vitality.
It has to be said that nature is very magical. Whether it is normal nature or nature in the magic world, when the corpse and the scavenging plant are combined, a new life force is born.
Especially the heart, which is the core of the corpse, has even greater power of life.
To be precise, this corpse is no longer a corpse, but has been transformed into a meaty plant. Not only does its heart not have the smell of rotten or deterioration, but instead turns from meat to a fruit-like existence.
Otherwise, Yi Xiao wouldn't have eaten so happily.
Although the appearance is still terrifying, the plasma is just the juice of the plant and not the real blood. Otherwise, it would not be kept for so long after being picked. Although it still smells very scary and looks, and the taste is not very wonderful. Well, it is not chicken.
However, it has very good therapeutic properties, which can be seen from the wound that Yi Xiao has recovered at this time. Compared with this, its shortcomings are nothing.
Yi Xiao does like to store things in shadows because they are not only safe, but also convenient. However, shadows are also a kind of space magic after all, and we must consider what to do if the space is imprisoned and cannot even take out the things.
Therefore, most of Yi Xiao's utensils and healing potions are still carried with him. His magical level is completely enough to cast the traceless stretching spell that no one can invade.
And this heart with healing effect is one of the magic potions that Yi Xiao carries.
When compared to Yi Xiao, Lucifer obviously did not feel so calm. Although his face was still calm, he could still see a hint of ugliness when he looked closely. His voice was hoarse, "What about your heart." He said with an extremely awkward manner, "It is indeed not in your chest."
"Maybe I have some special hidden skills. I took it out in advance to prevent people like you."
"This is impossible!" Lucifer finally responded with some excitement. He roared, "I haven't seen any memory of this in your mind."
"Oh... it turns out that you can observe my memory." Yi Xiao nodded with some clarity, his face still calm, "No wonder you can find out where I am invisible and transformed. You can avoid my attack in advance."
"But I think I can't read the memories from too long ago. It's so strange. When did you start observing me?"
Although Yi Xiao said this, he had already raised his vigilance to the highest level. He had also practiced brain closure. But according to Lucifer's words at this time, it was obvious that he had briefly found out that he needed memory through some method, but his brain closure had no reaction at all.
The devils are indeed all annoying guys. Even if they lose their hearts, the hard battle may not be over.
Lucifer did not answer, but Yi Xiao did not stop, "You have fought with the wizard for so long, don't you know one thing? Wizards have many ways to make themselves forget important things, and they can even forget them."
"I'm so sorry... I probably forgot."
"But I probably have a little guess now." Yi Xiao sighed and said. "It should be after you summoned the werewolf demon for the first time, something was wrong with me."
"Although my soul is still there, my emotions are gone, otherwise I would not have made the decision to let all the purr die in Fengxi Castle. It turns out that I had already taken out my heart."
"Every time you trap seems to cause me a little emotional fluctuation. It's so strange. Why do you care about my soul? Of course, in your words, it is to maintain some activity in my heart, but now it is the biggest flaw you left behind. And I'm not wrong."
"I don't know when the memory was lost, but it's not a problem to find it back, but you didn't seem to have noticed the abnormality of my heart during this period." Yi Xiao stared at Lucifer, "It's not your fault. Although you are a demon, you still have feelings, and how can those who have feelings understand someone without souls like me?"
"I even observed my missing soul or heart from my daily performance. Although it was strange why my feelings disappeared for no reason, I still pretended to be very similar. After all, I lived like this before. The only difference is that I really couldn't feel the warmth again, but... I seemed to have deceived you."
"It's very interesting... It seems that I don't remember anything, but I still perfectly completed the plan I set. It seems that I still have the talent to be an actor." Yi Xiao smiled and looked at Lucifer with a smile, but his eyes did not have a smile at all. "Now, my heart is gone, and the biggest threat is gone, it seems that I have won a game back."
"Of course, you are still immortal, but what else do you have?" Yi Xiao sneered, "I don't believe that your immortality is infinite, because I am also an immortal. I have time to spend with you to see who will die in the end."
It has to be said that self-confidence is indeed a very powerful force. After Yi Xiao solved Lucifer's greatest threat to him, although the situation did not change much, he still had the ability to continue fighting, because as he said, even if the space created by this dagger was prepared for the two immortals, there would still be limits.
It’s just that this limit will be very long. But what Yi Xiao doesn’t lack the least is time. Faced with Lucifer’s immortal advantage, just use his own magic to make up for it. Anyway, Lucifer has lost the biggest threat, and what he needs to do is to constantly consume him.
Lucifer, not far away, was silent for a while and said softly, "You are right, I was negligent, but in order to avoid the disadvantage being magnified unlimitedly, I will not continue playing with you."
He looked up at Yi Xiao and showed a strange smile, "The rest... don't even think about it, because I will take them back to hell." (To be continued.)
