"It seems to have worked." Sylvia took out the soul crystal that had just been condensed after absorbing the soul of the witch doctor from the soul trap, put it in her hand, looked at it, handed it to Leo, and said.

After Leo took it, he looked at the soul crystal in his hand seriously, frowned, and said, "It works, but the effect is incomplete."

Sylvia looked at Leo in confusion.

Leo took out a previously made soul crystal from his pocket and put it together with the witch doctor's soul crystal. From this comparison, Sylvia could also see the obvious difference between the two soul crystals.

The soul crystal made by the witch doctor is obviously darker in color than the soul crystal made before.

Leo simply accepted: "Before the soul rune trap took effect, part of the witch doctor's soul had been transferred by the device of the Transcendent organization. In the end, the soul rune trap only captured part of the witch doctor's soul."

Sylvia thought for a while and smiled: "It should be fine even if he only has part of his soul. Even if the remaining part is resurrected elsewhere, I'm afraid the situation will be very bad."

While Leo and Sylvia were talking, in a small fragmented plane attached to the world barrier, hundreds of strong middle-aged people were standing in front of an erected iron coffin device, using a

A prayer was recited in a language composed of a large number of tongue sounds, and while reciting, some metal ores were continuously thrown into the hollow of the iron coffin base.

I saw that all these middle-aged people had special symbols engraved on their bodies. When they recited prayers, the symbols would change and light up with their voices, and there were three tubes of different thicknesses inserted on their heads. The thickest tube

, covering almost the entire back of the head, and the thinnest tube is as thick as the handle of a long sword. The other end of these three tubes is connected to a transparent crystal backpack, and you can see that there is a monster placenta with eyes inside the lens.

, and the placenta seems to be still alive and blinking from time to time.

In addition, this small plane is a large platform like a square. Thousands of iron coffins of different sizes are regularly distributed on the platform. Each iron coffin is marked with a name in an extremely ancient language, and is inlaid under the name.

He picked up a huge ruby. The technological-looking lines distributed on the iron coffin were all connected to the ruby. However, some lines were only distributed on the edge of the ruby, while some lines had penetrated deep into the ruby ​​to form new ones.

pattern.

In the studio where these middle-aged people were observing their daily life in an orderly manner, one of the iron coffins on the platform suddenly made a harsh mechanical sound. The sound was not very loud, but the surroundings were full of unique prayer sounds.

In the environment, it seemed particularly eye-catching. Almost at the moment when it rang, everyone's eyes turned towards the iron coffin, and the middle-aged man who was closest stopped his hand.

He walked towards the iron coffin.

When he walked to the iron coffin, the door of the iron coffin was opened, and a freezing mist spread from the iron coffin. Then he saw a naked young man walking out of the iron coffin and walking along the iron coffin.

He walked down the steps to the base of the iron coffin and stood in front of the middle-aged man.

The scene in front of them was not the first time for everyone working here. Everyone looked envious of the young man, as if it was such a great thing that the young man could come out of the iron coffin.

The middle-aged man soon put away his emotions, and then routinely congratulated the other party on his rebirth in unique words, and asked the other party to verify his identity.

However, what puzzled the middle-aged man was that the other party did not inform him of his identity code as he had done in the past, but looked at him blankly, as lifeless as a stone.

Seeing this scene, confusion appeared on the middle-aged man's face, so he repeated the routine testing instructions, but still did not get any response, and even the other party's expression did not change.

At this time, he already felt something was wrong, so he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the other party, but the other party still didn't respond. He even made a gesture of piercing the other party's eyes, but the other party didn't even blink, which made people feel that this was not the case.

It's a living person, more like a dead corpse.

The middle-aged people who noticed something was wrong immediately shouted in panic and quickly called their supervisor, who told the young man what was wrong before the supervisor could reprimand him.

After hearing the report from his subordinates, the supervisor couldn't help but be stunned. He tried the middle-aged man's method and found that, as the middle-aged man said, the young man in front of him looked like a dead body.

The supervisor also realized that something was wrong, and he quickly learned the identity of the other party from the name on the iron coffin. At the same time, he also realized that this matter was beyond his ability to handle, so he ordered someone to carry the young man to the nearest rest room.

In the district, he also returned to his office to report the matter immediately.

After about an hour or so, several old men wearing transcendental robes came to this place. After asking about the situation, they were led by the supervisor to the room where the young man was housed.

The moment they saw the young man, the elders immediately knew that something was wrong.

Although the rebirth device can help the recorder to regenerate, it cannot help the recorder to rejuvenate his youth. Although the body created by the rebirth device looks like a youth, once the rebirth process is completed and the recorder walks out of the rebirth device, the new body will appear in a short time.

It ages rapidly over time, and eventually returns to the recorder's physical state at the time recorded by the rebirth device. If he was young at that time, he will be young after rebirth, and if he was old at that time, he will be old.

In fact, there are a few unlucky ones in the organization who were awarded record qualifications for their merits a few days before their death. As a result, they can only live for a few days each time they are reborn, and the cost of rebirth is not at all.

Reduced, eventually those people spent all their savings and could only be sealed up.

At present, this reborn person still maintains the appearance of a young man, which means that there may be a problem with the rebirth process.

"Taros! Talos! How are you, Talos?" The three of them were all acquainted with the reborn people and were familiar with each other. At the first moment, they were sure that the other party was indeed a friend with multiple reborn bodies, so they stepped forward and called a few times.

Voice.

However, as the maintenance supervisor of the rebirth device said, the other party did not respond to any external situation, just like a living dead.

Subsequently, the three of them conducted various tests. They still didn't know what happened to each other. They just knew that the rebirth device had worked and the rebirth process was completed normally. The young man in front of them was the reborn body of the witch doctor Talos, but

This reborn body seems to have no soul, only a body.

After finding no clues, the three people immediately sealed up the reborn body of Witch Doctor Talos, and then directly reported it to the maintenance agency of the core circle through special channels, and ordered all staff who maintained the rebirth device not to disclose the reborn body.

A word about the matter.

After this news was transmitted to the maintenance organization of the core circle, it immediately attracted the attention of those in charge of the core circle, because everything related to the rebirth device and the rebirth program is not a trivial matter. You must know that rebirth and resurrection are the most important thing for the transcendent organization.

The cornerstone of the core, once there is a problem with this cornerstone, the Transcendent organization will also be in danger of falling apart.

Now a senior core circle member has a problem during the rebirth process. If the problem is not found and solved immediately, it will be impossible for any core circle member recorded by the rebirth device to have a better life.

As a result, a secret investigation on whether and how the rebirth device malfunctioned began to quickly spread among the various factions and institutions in the core circle of the Transcendent Organization, and soon wrapped the entire core circle in it, a kind of

Unexplained tensions that had never happened before gradually arose in the hearts of some people who noticed the strangeness.

Leo didn't know how much commotion the soul rune trap had caused in the Transcendent organization by using the soul rune trap to absorb the soul of Talos, the witch doctor. He didn't take it to heart at the moment. He was now talking to Sylvia.

Prepare for the trip to Belmont Castle.

This trip was not his and Sylvia's plan. In fact, he and Sylvia were originally planning to go to the Wizarding Academy of that high tower wizard to explore other wizarding towers floating on land around the academy.

Let’s take a look, learn a little bit about the situation there, and then consider other things.

However, what they didn't expect was that while they were making preparations, the Duke of Belmont sent someone over to inform them, or more accurately, to inform Sylvia that the ancient ceremony held by the Belmont family once every twenty years was about to be held.

, not only people from the Belmont family will participate, but even people from the Theresa royal family will participate, and the participants will more or less be able to get some benefits from the ancient ritual. This opportunity is very rare, so the Duke of Belmont

I hope Sylvia can also participate in this ancient ritual, and if necessary, become the chief priest of this ritual and be responsible for presiding over the entire ritual.

As for the ancient family ritual mentioned by Duke Belmont, Sylvia has also seen it in the family's ancient books, but the specific content has been lost in the several changes in the family in the past, and she only knows that it is related to the family bloodline.

It has a great relationship with the development of the family and was the most important part of the coming-of-age ceremony for the next generation of the family in the past.

Although Sylvia felt that it was no longer necessary for her to participate in this ancient ritual, she still planned to go there, firstly out of curiosity, secondly to make up for the lost tradition of her family, and thirdly because she and Lei

Eupen planned to go to Belmont Castle in the near future. Now that the Duke of Belmont personally invited him, he didn't have to go there rashly and appear abrupt.

In fact, the so-called preparation was just that Leo picked out some usable parts from the opponent's equipment in the warehouse and took them away to see if they could be assembled into a usable device on the road.

Joan and Penny did not plan to go to Belmont Castle with Leo and Sylvia this time. They didn’t know whether it was a temporary decision or an early plan. They decided to go to the Middle Kingdom area to meet them.

Barbarissa.

Neither Leo nor Sylvia objected to this, but before they left, they formulated a new training plan for each of them and taught them some wizard artifacts and potions to ensure that they could meet the real people.

Ability to protect oneself in times of danger.

After making preparations, Leo and Sylvia left the book town. Instead of riding horses, they directly used their respective abilities to fly in the air towards the northern mountains where Belmont Castle is located.

The Kingdom of Teresa is a mountain kingdom. More than 90% of the entire land is mountainous. The overall terrain looks more like a lying long sword. The east and west ends are far apart and the north and south ends are close. According to academic

Judging from the location of the city, it should be located in the province at the southern end of Theresa, while Belmont Castle is in the virgin forest at the northern end.

Although the straight-line distance between the two is not very long, there are a lot of towering mountains in between. To reach the other end, you need to take a long detour.

However, these mountains that are difficult for ordinary people to climb are obviously not enough in the face of Leo's psychic wings and Sylvia's dragon wings.

Sylvia used the power of her bloodline to create a pair of huge dragon wings behind herself. The huge lifting force generated by just flapping the dragon wings was enough to make it fly in the air at a very fast speed.

Leo's psychic wings were more about borrowing airflow to fly. For this reason, he followed Sylvia when the airflow was small, and then flew quickly with the huge airflow generated by the dragon's wings.

The two of them flew high in the sky, passing through the tops of snow-capped mountains, and flew from the southernmost point of Teresa's Kingdom to the northernmost point in just one day.

However, at this moment they discovered a problem, that is, they seemed to be lost.

Compared to Leo, who had used psychic wings to fly more than once, and even used psychic wings to move in an environment like the vacuum of subspace, Sylvia, who was flying with dragon wings for the first time, looked down on this kind of god-like view.

The state of the human world was so exciting that she was completely immersed in the joy of flying, completely forgetting to identify the road, and only roughly identified a northern direction, until she saw the primeval forest in the northern zone, and saw some special

When Lesa looked at the unique trees in the northern mountain forests, she realized that they had arrived in the northern province.

In order to identify their current location, the two of them quickly found a logging town deep in the forest under the cover of night, landed outside the town, and walked towards the town.

However, when the two of them walked outside the town, a few hundred meters away from the entrance of the town, they both stopped at the same time, and then looked at each other, and they seemed to see an unexpected look in each other's eyes.
