"Isn't the tickball that traps Horus from Wu Wuling?"

Xu Lun asked incrediblely. She had been watching before, admiring Wu Wuling's endless means, especially for his ability to save his life.?

When Horus took over his body, Wu Wuling hid on the substitute, and when Horus once again occupied the substitute [Flame Knight] to kill the original body, he transformed into a terrifying platinum flame.

So just now, when Wu Wuling's flames were suppressed, Xu Lun instinctively thought that this was Wu Wuling's new method, but now, he heard what Zhang Xiao meant, it seemed that this was not the case.

"Yes, no." Zhang Xiao did not keep it a secret. After organizing his words, he said, "The vines originated from Zhao Ke's substitute [Friend] who was assimilated by Wu Wuling. It is not wrong to say that this was transformed by Wu Wuling, but Wu Wuling's will is no longer there. He was wiped out by Horus's curse together with the platinum flame."

"What's going on with those vines? And the ones under our feet." Xu Lun asked in disbelief, "Is it Zhao Ke?"

"No, it's not Zhao Ke. Even if she is not dead, she is not far from death." Zhang Xiao already understood her bad situation from Zhao Ke's previous words.

Because Zhao Ke's substitute was assimilated by Wu Wuling, during the period when Wu Wuling was taken over by Horus, Horus assimilated Zhao Ke's substitute.

Just as Horus said, playing with souls in front of Egyptians (Gods) is indeed seeking death. The substitute originates from the soul, and it can be said that it is also a kind of soul. Zhao Ke's situation is tantamount to selling the soul (supere) to the demon.

Although Zhao Ke was not targeting her, and even because of the Horus's position as the god of Horus, Zhao Ke was slightly restored through his soul connection for a while, this was tantamount to a return; when Horus paid attention to the assimilated Friend in Wu Wuling's body, Zhao Ke's tragedy was already destined.

Back to the point, Zhang Xiao denied Xu Lun's guess about Zhao Ke and said his answer, "These under our feet, including the slime balls trapping Horus, actually originated from what Wu Wuling called the "sun."

Zhang Xiao said in admiration: "Wu Wuling is a genius. His research on substitutes is extremely profound. I am afraid he is no worse than Father Puchi you know. No, relying solely on his own ability, he is undoubtedly far from being able to do this step. Father Puchi is a half-bad person. I am afraid that only dIo's research on substitutes can surpass him."

"What are you talking about?" Xu Lun didn't understand what Zhang Xiao meant.

"I'm saying that Wu Wuling has mastered the method of making his substitute evolve and grow. It's not the kind of trying luck in battle, nor relying on the mysterious "arrow" and other external objects, but to truly find a way to grow and evolve his substitute."

Xu Lun had heard of the growth and evolution of the stand-in from her father, Jotaro, but she had never seen it with her own eyes. In other words, she thought that the growth and evolution were just to make the stand-in faster and stronger.

"Don't you find it strange? His [Flame Knight] clearly doesn't have a trace of flame, and his ability only makes the temperature of the skin on the body increase. Why did he give himself a name called "Flame"?"

Xu Lun frowned. It is not surprising to say that it is strange. The naming of the substitute is entirely given by the original body or other people. However, if you look at it carefully, the name of the substitute will often be very consistent with the ability of the substitute, just as if there is God's will in the dark.

Whether it is the [Freedom of Stone] she named herself or the [Platinum Star] her father named after the tarot card, it is vaguely affected by such coincidences, and can reflect the ability of the substitute to some extent.

However, this was not inevitable, so she didn't think that Wu Wuling's substitute's name was wrong at first, at most it was just a bad name. But according to Zhang Xiao's meaning, there was something hidden behind it.

"I didn't understand at first. Until I saw Wu Wuling transform into flames before, I finally understood that his substitute ability is actually to control flames!"

"Impossible." Xu Lun immediately denied that she had fought with Wu Wuling and had the most say in this. "If he could control the flames, he would not have burned his fist by the flames... His ability is obviously to control the temperature of the body surface!"

"Ha...that's why I said he is a genius." Zhang Xiao's tone even had a hint of admiration, "Even when you were fighting, Wu Wuling did not show the true ability of his substitute. No, it should be said that in order to make the substitute evolve, he has been suppressing the real ability of the substitute."

"What do you mean?" Xu Lun felt that Zhang Xiao was completely nonsense, "Are you saying that his substitute has two abilities? He has the ability to control the flames?"

"No, his substitute has the ability to control the flames." Zhang Xiao shook his head and signaled Xu Lun not to hurry. After hearing him say, "But he burned the flames into the substitute's body, hid them in the blood, and relied on boiling blood to increase the temperature on the body surface and show another ability that was almost completely different."

"What!!"

"Think about it, why does his body surface change color? Why does the temperature of the flame on his hands suddenly drop to normal after the skin on his hands is lost? Why does his body crack and he will flow out high-temperature blood that is comparable to the temperature of the body surface after it cracks?"

"You mean..." Xu Lun opened his eyes wide.

"Yes, he has trained to make the flame dissolve in the blood, and to use it to spread throughout his body, even the blood in his capillaries."

"Then why doesn't he directly control the flame attack?" Xu Lun didn't understand. "If he had such powerful manipulation of the flame, I wouldn't have beaten him."

"I said, he is not for superficial strength, but for the evolution of the substitute. Don't you understand the true meaning of his soluble flames in blood?" Zhang Xiao shook his head, not knowing whether it was regret or praise. "Blood flows through the whole body, which means that the flames will also go with him, so that he can use the body (superman) as a piece of iron, without letting go of a trace from the inside out, completely burning it repeatedly through the flames he controlled until he becomes the ultimate substitute who ignores the flames and is immune to the flames... By then, his substitute may be the real [Sun Knight]."

Looking at Xu Lun's amazement, Zhang Xiao sighed, "But obviously, his body (stationary) has not yet reached the level of being able to withstand flames completely, so he will be held back when fighting with you, and even be injured by his own substitute."

Zhang Xiao pointed to the scene where Wu Wuling's [Flame Knight] ran away and was burned by his own blood.
