In Xiao Chen's consciousness, a complex magic ball of light was slowly rotating, and the magic words were disassembled, thrown away or reassembled by Xiao Chen's consciousness. Sometimes a small mistake would cause the entire system to collapse, and Xiao Chen had to start all over again. Even with the help of lightning thoughts, this work still took a lot of time.
Xiao Chen had never modified magic before, and the only experience he had in this area was what he heard from Tashia. Fortunately, what he had to do today was to simplify the inapplicable parts of the magic.
Part of the magic of the Soul Bridge is to extract the soul from a person's brain, but now Tasya no longer has such a thing as a brain. It is like using an ice pick to take things out of the ice, while using a net bag to take things out of the water.
Inappropriate tools are a burden to the work. What Xiao Chen had to do was to remove the ice pick. Although he couldn't make a net bag, he came up with a stupid idea, which was to jump into the water and salvage it himself.
Originally, he only needed to wait for the other party to come over at this end of the bridge, but now he had to walk over and find Tasia's soul himself...
The world outside.
Belia kept trying to tell her every little thing that happened at home in the past. Tasia floated beside her and listened quietly, but gradually she seemed to be lacking energy and her expression became more and more sleepy.
"This won't work. Miss Tasya won't be able to hold on until Brother Xiao recovers. Do you want to remind Brother Xiao?" Catalina saw that Tasya's head was drooping and her eyes were slightly closed, and she became restless.
"But we are not magicians, and it seems that we can't do anything." Roger glanced at Xiao Chen who was still motionless and said, "Don't disturb Master Xiao Chen. If he comes and forces a spell without preparation, something will go wrong. Remember, nothing here is more important than Master Xiao Chen's safety."
"Of course I know. But... it seems that Miss Tasia is also very important to Brother Xiao, and doesn't she have a remarkable background? I'm afraid that if she dies here, her family will cause trouble for Brother Xiao, whether it's the Alonso family, the Magic Association, or a certain great magician, or even some forces we don't know that are involved with her family. These people... may cause huge trouble. They don't even have to confront us directly, as long as they embarrass us somewhere, we will be unable to move forward in the capital."
Roger was a little surprised. He didn't expect Catalina to think so far.
"Don't underestimate me. As the executor of the intelligence gathering in the capital, how could I not understand these things?" Catalina sighed and said, "And no matter what, she sacrificed herself to solve our predicament and saved Brother Xiao's people. I am very grateful to her."
Roger thought for a moment and said, "Based on my limited knowledge of magic, she is currently running out of energy. If there is a way to help her replenish the same type of energy, perhaps she can hold on a little longer."
"Isn't she made of fire? If we burn her with fire, will she be able to replenish her energy?"
By this time, the wall of fire released by Tasya had long gone out. After Katarina told Tasya her idea, she raised her head tiredly and said, "Let's give it a try. Anyway, my situation can't get any worse."
There was nothing around to start a fire, so Belia took out camping wood and torches from Tasia's ring and lit a fire on the side of the road. Tasia slowly floated to the fire, and she seemed to be more energetic in the smoke.
"Miss, how do you feel?" Belia asked as she added firewood.
"It's like putting a layer of water on the mouth of a person who is about to die of thirst in the desert."
"Is it useless?" Belia asked anxiously.
"Anyway, this fire at least makes me feel a little better. Belia, continue telling us stories about our childhood. Maybe it won't be a bad thing if I disappear while listening."
"No, miss! No."
"Let's start from the time we played a trick on Viscount Agata's son during our boat trip."
"Okay." Belia wiped her tears and spoke.
When Belia was telling the third story, Tasia suddenly said, "The white mist is about to dissipate, and I feel like I'm leaving too. I'm very happy to meet you." The flames on Tasia's body began to slowly go out.
"Miss!" Belia reached out to grab Tasia's arm, but her hand passed through. Tasia's body only gave her a warm feeling, and she couldn't even feel any burning sensation.
"goodbye… "
When Tasia's body dissipated into her abdomen and Belia fell into despair, Xiao Chen finally opened his eyes.
A pure white light beam shot out from his eyes and hit Tasia's head.
At the same time, a part of Xiao Chen's soul split into a ball of light and entered Tashia's elemental body along the soul bridge that looked like a white channel.
Xiao Chen originally thought that he would enter a scorching world, but when his soul began to sense the surroundings, what he "saw" was endless darkness. It was like a universe without the sun and stars, with only some dim nebulae giving the world some light.
No, there is still a "sun". Xiao Chen found a dim light ball in the center of the space, releasing the last ray of light. Xiao Chen's mind moved, and his soul appeared in front of the light ball. Xiao Chen's light ball emitted a dazzling light. Compared with him, the light ball was like a dying baby in front of a strong young man.
This must be Tashia's soul. She has undoubtedly exhausted her mental strength and is extremely weak.
Xiao Chen sent a message to the dying soul: "Tasia, I'm here to pick you up."
He sent the message three times before he got a response. Tasia's soul voice was intermittent: "Am I dead? Are you the messenger who will welcome my soul back to the earth?"
"There is no messenger to welcome the dead. You are not dead yet. I am Xiao Chen. I am here to save you."
The voice on the other end was silent for a moment and then said, "It's nice to have you by my side after death. Even if it's just an illusion before my thoughts fade away."
Xiao Chen said somewhat awkwardly: "I am really Xiao Chen. The soul bridge magic was successful. I connected our souls just before you disappeared."
"Really? I'm not dead yet?"
"If you don't hurry and come with me, perhaps we will die together in your elemental body."
"What should I do?"
Xiao Chen's big light ball approached Tashia's small light ball, and separated many mental power threads, wrapping her soul like a cocoon. Tashia only felt that her soul was embraced by a warm force, and she had a very safe feeling.
When Xiao Chen's spiritual power completely enveloped Tasia, the world around him suddenly became frantic. The black world suddenly began to collapse, and the black pieces that served as the background began to fall off from this world, first turning into fragments, and then into fine crumbs. Outside the disappeared world was the void, with nothing.
Xiao Chen knew that this was because Tasia's already collapsed body lost the support of the soul and died completely.
He even felt the pulling force around him, the world was going to take him with it and disappear completely. He dragged Tashia's soul and the remaining spiritual power as fast as he could and rushed back to the White Soul Bridge.
