Chapter 2404 No. 23(1/2)
"So, in the eyes of Nice wizard, my soul is actually very fragile?" The authority eyes slowly turned their heads and stared at Nice.
Because I couldn't see Angel's expression through the permission eyes, Nice couldn't tell whether Angel was talking emotionally or was really asking.
Nice thought for a while and said, "Your soul has a very special nature and can even be immune to a large number of soul attacks. However, can this special ability be really controlled by you?"
Angel remained silent and the answer was clear.
Nice pointed out the special nature of Angel's soul and stopped talking about it. After all, this involves some secrets of Angel and even the Phantom Demon Island.
"Your soul has great potential, and may become one of your foundations against enemies in the future, but before that, what you need to do is study it, protect it, and avoid being compromised by people who are proficient in souls when they are fragile." Nice: "And soul arming may be able to escort your soul for a period of time."
Angel still didn't say anything, but he had already had a slight bias in his heart.
"So, when you go to the third floor showroom later, don't study the magic energy array, choose one first." Kanter suggested.
Angel pondered: "Soul armed... needs more in-depth research."
Although Angel did not agree directly, his reply actually expressed his attitude. He did not care about the soul armament before, but now that he has wanted to study it in depth, it means he has also thought about it.
Nice: "Of course, we must first study whether there are any disadvantages, otherwise I will not easily transplant. This is related to the soul."
Because it was seen that Angel's claim to the soul armament was changing. So, in the next journey, Nice and Kanter introduced some transplantable organ types that would not enter the internal circulation and would replace relatively simple transplantable organs.
As they introduced themselves along the way, they followed the direction of the magic pattern to a double-opening and closing door.
"Is the split control node clear this time? Don't you need to go to the death corridor?" Nice looked at the door.
Angel shook his head: "The magic pattern points here, but it should not be the end point of the sub-control node."
Angel means that the split control node may be in other places, but instead of walking through the normal corridor, you have to use this room as a transit to go to other places.
Nice nodded in a clear way. Instead of pushing the door directly into it, he turned to look at Reynolds: "Do you know where it is inside?"
Reynolds seemed to have recalled something, his expression was a little ugly, and he spoke for a long time: "There is... a medical center inside."
“Is there any organ?”
Reynolds: "No, just pull the door out and you can go in."
"If there is no agency or a medical center, why are you looking ugly?" Nice was a little confused. He shook his head and sighed, and opened the door directly.
After the door was opened, a lot of white frost mist filled out, just like the showroom.
The cold breath penetrated into the nose and penetrated the head slightly.
After a long time, the frost and mist gradually dissipated. When everyone looked inside, they were all stunned.
There are many people inside.
But they are not living people, but dead people who are housed in nearly a hundred transparent glass columns and are soaked in solid color cold liquid.
These dead people are suspended in the cold liquid, all maintaining the state of the moment before their death. Some die as humans, but more often some parts of the body change and turn into terrifying monsters. For example, there are green mucus, tentacles all over the body, and some have swelling and blood squirting in the abdomen... etc., just with a strange appearance, ordinary people will probably be scared to get sick when they see it.
These dead people soaked in the glass column have a common feature. They have X tattoos on the left side of their faces, and the numbers on the right are random. Some are hundreds, some are ten, and some are... individual digits.
Reynolds was standing next to a single-digit corpse on his right face.
Her number is X7, which is generally human-shaped and looks quite mature and gorgeous, at least in line with the taste of Nice's selected women. However, her waist was cut off and disappeared.
"...She is '用'. When she and I were carrying out a mission to clean up defectors, she died with the defectors, and I... survived. She was brainwashed by the laboratory, but before she died, she seemed to wake up and told me that she envied me for having a name, and that many people agreed with the meaning of this name. She had a wish and wanted to have a name that could be recognized, even if it could only have one second."
"So, the moment before she died, I gave her the name '用'. The meaning of this name is the spikes of flowers that will wither before they bloom."
Reynolds lowered his head, as if he was talking, and murmured: "It is precisely because of this that I am very keen to name my companions. For example, the 'Tait', 'Scythe', 'Rin' I just met, and the 'Song' I mentioned before, were all for them based on their characteristics..."
Reynolds paused clearly when he said this. He might want to say: But they don't seem to agree.
There are very few experimental subjects that awaken like ‘Lytium’. Perhaps others will awaken before death, but what’s the use?
Listening to Reynolds' telling, although the story he told was not as turbulent as he imagined, it was as dull as the supporting characters in a novel. However, it made everyone understand some things.
Why did Reynolds be obsessed with eliminating the sequence marks of the soul body, and even willing to join forces with Nausica to break into the laboratory to pirate information?
Because he wanted to find himself.
This self is not just a name, but a "I" in a certain idealistic sense.
Only by finding "me" can he truly give up the past, embark on the road to the future, and find the freedom he yearns for.

In this world, everyone has their own story, and the little people in the big era also have their past. This is Reynolds' past. Even if everyone cannot empathize with Reynolds, they at least began to understand his beliefs.
Because of Reynolds' narration, the atmosphere was slightly silent.
It was not until a "click" sound that everyone came to their senses.
When Reynolds raised his head, he found that Nice, who was standing not far away, Kante and even the Skeleton Knight were gone.
After a closer look, I found that Nice was moving rapidly beside a group of glass columns, while Kant was standing in the distance and doing something.
After a few seconds, Nice stood in front of a glass column.
Reynolds thought for a while and walked over.
"Sir, what happened?" Reynolds asked respectfully.
Nice pointed to the person floating in the glass pillar in front of her and asked, "Who is he?"
Reynolds looked up and found that there was a man with half of his body inside. At first glance, it looked similar to other glass columns around him, but if you look closely, you will find that the number sequence on this man’s face was different from others.
The others have X on the left face and the numbers on the right face. But his left side is 2 and his right face is 3.
"Serial number 23! How could it be him!" Reynolds: "He is so good at here? Isn't he a doctor at the experimental center? Why did he die here?"
"Die?" Nice sneered: "This guy is not dead."
As Nice finished speaking, the man in front of him suddenly opened his eyes, staring at Nice with his turbid brown eyes.
"This glass column isolates the breath. I haven't discovered it for a while before, thinking that it's dead here. But this guy made some noise before, otherwise it would be really hard for us to find him."
Nice's words made Reynolds realize that the "click" sound just now was made on No. 23?
"Huahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahuahua
It took him a long time to recover.
This time he learned his lesson and stopped laughing, but his gloomy expression did not disappear: "No. 1, I didn't expect you to become a traitor... You should have put it here like other goods. This is your destination."
Reynolds sniffed at the nose: "You are locked in the cage now, this is your destination, not mine."
No. 23 stared at Reynolds with gloomy eyes: "It won't last too long, you will come in..."
The words of No. 23 made Reynolds suddenly feel a little bad: "What do you mean?"
No. 23 evoked an evil smile: "What does it mean? You will know soon... Hehehehehehehehehehehehe..."
Reynolds turned to Nice with a worried face, but Nice didn't say anything, as if waiting for something.
About a few seconds later, Kanter came over from a distance.
Kanter didn't speak with his mind tie and said directly: "He should have activated a certain switch just now and wanted to convey information to others."
The "click" sound is the sound of the switch pressing.
Since it has been discovered, No. 23 did not hide it. He covered his cough and felt a little painful. He endured his discomfort and said, "Even if you know, it doesn't matter. Soon, the law enforcement sequence and the hunting sequence will come soon. You will be finished by then, huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Is that true?" Nice sneered: "It's a pity that your thoughts will soon be shattered. The law enforcement sequence should be your combatants. They all went to the nest. It seems you don't know yet. This also includes three official wizards in your laboratory. By the way, No. 03 did not go, but he was already locked in a fire cage."
"As for the hunting sequence, what can those mechanical puppets that are not qualified to tick us? Of course, if you have enough authority, you may also know the hunting sequences of the first 5 numbers. Unfortunately, they will not appear on their own initiative if they are not triggered in the magic energy array's sub-control node."
Nice's words made No. 23 stunned. He didn't know if what Nice said was true, but Nice could even point out the hunting sequence positions of the first 5 numbers. Perhaps it is really a high possibility?
No. 23 stared at Nice with cold eyes. He was a doctor in the medical center and a researcher. He didn't know much about the wizarding world in the Southern Region and did not know Nice. However, from the other party's calm expression and disrespectful words to No. 03, we can see that the other party's strength is not bad, and maybe it can really be compared with No. 03.
In other words, the other party may be a formal wizard.
Thinking of this, No. 23's expression was even more ugly. Regardless of whether what he said was true or not, a formal wizard broke into the laboratory, which was definitely not a minor accident!
"What you said is true or false, but even if they are not there, you cannot escape. The noble, great, and invincible existence is still sleeping. As long as you confirm your threat, he will wake up and punish you with divine power!"
The 23rd spoke normally at the beginning, but now it is obviously full of madness, like a crazy believer of the evil god.
However, his behavior came to an abrupt end in Kante's words.
Kanter: "The button you pass the message is at your feet, there is a broken magic pattern block that will bypass all the glass columns and pass it to the sub-control node through the white metal door behind it. Then, through the feedback from the magic energy array, others will notice it, right?"
No. 23 said blankly: "How did you know?"
Kanter smiled slightly: "Of course... I understand magic patterns. By the way, your information transmission has been cut off."
No. 23 shook his head violently: "This is impossible!"
Kante shrugged indifferently: "There is nothing impossible in this world. If you don't believe it, you can continue to step on the button under your feet."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! No. 23 hesitated for a while, and still pressed the button under his feet according to Kante, but as Kante said... there was no reaction at all.
"Now you understand your situation. OK, next I'll ask you."
The 23rd wanted to refuse, but the pattern of the sun and the moon suddenly appeared in Kant's eyes. The 23rd stared at the pattern, and his eyes gradually became blurred and he was about to be hypnotized.
But just as the mind of No. 23 gradually became stiff, he suddenly bit the tip of his tongue. As blood spread in the cold liquid, some kind of switch seemed to be activated. A tadpole twisted pattern suddenly appeared in his eyebrows, and after a red light was emitted, No. 23 screamed and buried his head.
Everyone: "..."
