"what way?"
There was a pause there, and then he continued, "If there is a risk in humans accepting the perception of the devil, then turn the devil into a human being."
"You mean to transfer the soul?" Roland quickly thought of the key.
"You mentioned that there are demons in the dream world, that is to say, the successor of the city of falling star has used the ability to extract souls to demons, which at least proves that they are also affected by soul instruments." Zoe He explained, "After that, as long as the high-level devil is transferred to the body of the God's Punishment Warrior, the risk of perception can be borne by this guy."
"That's it," he couldn't help nodding and said, using the God's Punishment Warrior as a carrier would be equivalent to forcing the devil to adapt to human beings, and the sensory feedback received by the soul-connector was also familiar information. It's also easier to gain an advantage when the other side is in chaos, which sounds like a good idea. "But you also lose a transferable container."
After the collapse of the church, the body of the God's Punishment Samurai basically used one less.
"We'd rather sleep in your dreams than in a cold, unconscious cage... so there's nothing wrong with that."
"Cough cough" Roland almost choked on the tea. Although he knew that the other party was a woman, when he heard these words from a thick male voice, the lethality was still too amazing.
"Just kidding," Zooey chuckled rarely, "In fact, we have several defective items in our collection, which are just right for this transfer. What's more, the price of a body is fundamental compared to the possible gains. Not worth mentioning."
"Defective product?" he asked, clearing his throat.
"From Hermes to our original hideout, we had to cross the Extremis Mountains to get there, which is not a good way to walk, especially during the Demon Moon. Some God's Punishment Warriors even climbed because of their feet. It has been eaten away by evil beasts. Naturally, a body like this cannot be used as a warrior. At first, we planned to use it as a container for longevity for those nobles to enjoy."
Roland twitched the corners of his mouth secretly, can living like this really be considered enjoyment
"But even if it is a defective product, it has the ability similar to the God's Stone of Retaliation, right? If it is displayed during the connection process, will it cause any problems?"
"Please rest assured, even for us, it takes decades to master an unfamiliar body." Zooey replied, "It takes longer to stimulate the realm of divine punishment, and many people even This ability cannot be used until the second transfer. Even if the devil has an unimaginable talent in this area, it is unlikely that he will do so during the interrogation period."
Agatha added, "Take a ten thousand steps back and say that even if the resonance is interrupted, the pain caused is only temporary. Sylvie has personally verified it during the investigation."
"By the way, have you discussed this with Ms. Camilla?" Roland suddenly thought of a key question.
"It has been talked about. She was negative at first. After all, this is something that has never been tried. No witch can be said to be an interrogator. There is no risk, but Zoe convinced her."
"Really..." He doubted that the other party was not an articulate person.
"It's actually very simple, Your Majesty," Zooey continued, "I just told her that the person who connects the soul with the devil is none other than myself."
Roland couldn't help but startled slightly.
"I am both a superhuman and the first witch to be awakened by God's Punishment... In such a state, dealing with the devil is more certain than most people." She said calmly, "Of course, the most important thing is that I am the planner. Proposers, of course, should take all risks."
This is probably the reason why the ancient witches are so proud of themselves, but they can't be hated... Roland thought that when it comes to dealing with the devil, they are indeed the ones who take the lead in shouting "Fight with me". This alone has beaten many people.
"I see, let's do as you said." He replied after a moment of silence, "Remember not to relax the monitoring of high-level devils on the way back."
"Ah, I'll take good care of it, Your Majesty. "Zoe laughed.
Perhaps compared to the final interrogation, the escort process is what she is most looking forward to.
After finishing the call, Roland fell into deep thought for a while.
Do humans and demons really have souls
If not, how did these Taquila witches change their bodies at will? What is the principle of the soul instrument
If so, why can't the soul exist independently of the body? After all, if you can peel off and give your soul at will, it is no different from immortality.
There is also the dream world... How is an illusory space that is so realistic but does not exist in the world? What exactly is at the end of the so-called pillar of light leading to the Divine Realm in the ancient books of the underground civilization
After thinking about it, I am afraid that it is only possible to solve this mystery after understanding the nature of the battle between magic power and divine will.
But no matter what, he now has a chance to witness the transfer of souls with his own eyes.
…
Compared to the cares of the expedition, the time to return seems to be much faster.
Due to the growing maturity and growth of the City Hall, there are very few government affairs that need Roland's personal intervention now, so he spends most of his free time on a few key industrial projects.
The test flight of the glider is still progressing steadily. The flight manual written by Tilly has gradually become a book with a thickness comparable to "Moderate Chemistry". When adding the cover, Roland deliberately used gold as the title color.
The steel ship became more and more familiar in the hands of Thunder. Although the power and control system were not satisfactory at the beginning, and there were constant failures, but after several improvements, it finally looked like a real sea ship.
In addition, the Mage Tower specially built for Agatha was also announced to be completed in the last month of autumn. From the moment of its completion, the five-story concrete building has been decorated with peculiar shapes in different painting styles, as well as beyond the lord castle. Height has become the new landmark of Neverwinter. There is no doubt that the Miracle Building will be the most striking sight in the city until it is completed.
In addition to these, the oil fractionation tower, as well as the building for the assembly of the new generation of power sources, are also nearing the end of construction. In the past, the closer it was to winter, the more silent the Western Region became, as if the towns were all in hibernation along with the land, but since the establishment of Neverwinter, this phenomenon has gradually been subverted and reached a new peak this year. From the north slope mining area to the shoal harbor, busy people and newly built houses can be seen everywhere.
A month and a half later, the First Army finally returned to the starting point after a long absence.
The people of Neverwinter spontaneously greeted them in the grasslands on the outskirts, and their cheers almost resounded through the sky.
That same day, there was snow in the sky.
The long winter... is here.
