On the other side, in Ye Zi's own room, Luo Ling and Ye Zi were sitting by the bed.
The two of them were talking, but they were speaking English. This gun obviously had the ability to sense the outside world and understand human speech, so it could only switch to a language that did not exist in this world.
"It's a very arrogant weapon, it seems to be disdainful of other powers." Ye Zi frowned and said to Luo Ling, "I don't like this feeling..."
"Don't you like being controlled by this weapon?" Luo Ling asked.
"Of course. I have never been a good girl since I was young. I may not even listen to my dad, so why should I listen to it?" Ye Zi said angrily, "Actually, when I think about it from the beginning, I seem to have always been passively accepting it. In that temple, it chose me. When I was practicing, it inspired my strength. When I was attacked, it decided whether to summon the Arena of the God of War. Now it is interfering with my practice again. I think I might have been a little scared by the name of the artifact at the beginning, and I was proud of getting the artifact in my heart, so I just followed it. It was really stupid."
"Then go and tame it." Luo Ling put a hand on her shoulder. "Whether you are controlling a capable person or riding a hot-tempered horse, you need to show your ability to make him convinced. After all, this gun is an ancient artifact, an antique. It's normal for it to be self-righteous and have a temper, right?"
Ye Zi was amused by Luo Ling, "But how can I do this?"
"I don't know. If I want to convince someone, I just need to know what he wants or what he is afraid of. What do you think a spear that was not destroyed in the war of gods and is so proud is most afraid of?"
"I think what it fears most is being abandoned and sealed again."
"It seems like you have an idea." Luo Ling took out a scroll. "What I can do for you is to use magic to strengthen your willpower. The rest depends on you."
With the help of Luo Ling's magic, Ye Zi once again communicated with the Shadow Gun in his consciousness.
This is an unknown void. Ye Zi stands opposite a ball of white light. This is the Shadow Gun. It is not a weapon spirit like a book spirit, but the consciousness of the Shadow Gun itself. Things like book spirits are spirits attached to weapons, but it is an inseparable part of the gun.
Ever since the bracelet on the end of the gun was found, the Shadow Gun has been recovering day by day, and its ability to communicate has become stronger and stronger. Now it can speak complex words.
"What you said to that woman was so strange. I couldn't understand it." The light ball made a sharp sound, just like a child speaking. "Are you two plotting something? Or is it because of that crappy book?"
"This is none of your business."
"I don't know where those messed up powers come from, but my power comes from the great God of War. There is nothing in the world more powerful than his power. You just need to follow that war angel and practice the power given by the God of War, and you will be able to become a Valkyrie again."
"I have said it more than once just now, how I practice is my business. I can feel that you 'care' about me, and I am very grateful that you have saved me more than once. But please let me choose the right path for myself." Ye Zi said in a slow tone. She seemed very sincere when she spoke like this, but people who were familiar with her knew that when Ye Zi spoke like this, she had often reached the limit of her patience. If her patience was challenged again, it would be time to welcome her storm.
Obviously, Shadow Gun didn't know Ye Zi's habits. It continued to chatter: "I have seen much more than you, and I know what is best! I know how to practice so that you can be invincible! With my help, the power of the God of War will always protect you."
"Do you know what kind of weapon is the best weapon?" Ye Zi asked.
"Of course it's a weapon as sharp, powerful, and indestructible as mine." There was pride in Shadow Gun's voice.
"Wrong! An obedient weapon is the best weapon. There is a phrase in my hometown called "use it like an arm to control it", and a good weapon should be like that. If you can't become a part of me and act according to my will, then I don't need you."
"What are you talking about? You don't need me anymore. Valkyrie and Shadowgun are one and the same." Shadowgun was a little angry.
"I am not a Valkyrie. I am tired of you always putting this identity on my head. I don't believe in God. Neither the God of War nor the Valkyrie means anything to me. Neither the God of Nature nor the God of Wisdom means anything to me. Therefore, you and I have never been one. This is just my momentary confusion and your self-conceit."
"Have you ever thought that if you lose me, you will immediately become nothing? The war angel who inherited Metatron will also abandon you."
Ye Zi sneered: "No, on the contrary, only after you leave can I be myself again. I am myself and I don't need you to judge me."
"You're crazy. Why did the resurrection of the Valkyrie turn out like this? What on earth has polluted your mind?"
Ye Zi stopped talking nonsense with it and waved her hand gently. A dozen silver threads appeared on her body, connecting her to the ball of light.
"This is the power connection between us, right? Now, I don't want it." She raised her fingers and chopped at a thin line like a sharp knife, but the thin line seemed to be made of steel and hardly moved at all.
He scoffed at Shadowgun, "It's no use! The bond between us is already unbreakable."
Ye Zi's body in reality suddenly burst out with fighting spirit. She forced the fighting spirit onto her arm bit by bit, concentrating it on the location of the tattoo. The fighting spirit vibrated wildly, turning her entire arm red and purple, and bringing her great pain. However, Ye Zi gritted her teeth and persisted, using the fighting spirit to impact the location of the shadow gun. Even the tattoo and the surrounding skin began to tremble violently.
Then she found that in that unknown world, the connection between her and the Anti-Shadow Gun became dim and thin. She used her hand knife to chop hard again, and the thread was immediately broken, and the remaining part also broke inch by inch, and finally disappeared without a trace.
"God of War, this is a symbol of the bond between us! These lines represent the ability to communicate power between you and me. Without these, you can't even activate the God of War Arena! How could you do this?"
However, Ye Zi mercilessly chopped off the second and third ones. She was like a focused woodcutter, swinging her axe uncertainly.
When she had chopped down half of them, the power of the Shadow Gun seemed to have decreased significantly, and even her ability to speak became much weaker.
"Stop! If you cut again you'll lose me."
"That's exactly what I wish." Ye Zi cut another thin line.
"I shut up, you stop!"
Another thread was cut.
"I won't interfere with you."
One more.
"I obey you..."
The fighting spirit disappeared from Ye Zi's hand, and the tattoo had dimmed a lot. It would take a long time to restore the connections that had just been severed, but Ye Zi felt that it was worth it. Now she at least had a quiet gun.
"How is it?" Luo Ling asked quickly when she saw the fighting spirit beginning to subside.
"It seems... I tamed it!"
