However, until the wild wolf devoured all the flesh and blood, the Gate of Annihilation in the sky remained the same, almost pressing to the ground without any sign of dissipating.
"how come?"
Benjamin turned his head and looked at the wild wolf again.
The wild wolf had completely changed its appearance, its eyes were glowing red, and it was attacking the wall of the igloo manically, and kept banging its head, as if it wanted to rush out from inside.
After hesitating for a moment, Benjamin moved toward the wild wolf. Later, he actually sensed a spiritual power similar to humans from the wild wolf. And the life breath on the wild wolf has completely disappeared at this moment, and it doesn't even breathe anymore.
The wolf is dead, but... the will of flesh and blood is still there.
—Benjamin didn’t know why such an idea came to his mind.
"Has this wolf... turned into some kind of undead creature?" Other mages came over and observed for a while, and someone asked in disbelief.
"It's possible." Benjamin took a deep breath and said helplessly, "And the most important thing is that the key to closing the door of annihilation lies with this wolf."
The spiritual power of the two elders was strangely transferred to the wild wolf after the corpse was eaten. In other words, the current casters of the Gate of Annihilation are equivalent to this undead dead wolf in front of them.
This weird transfer method also convinced me.
The only good thing is that although this wolf has control of the Gate of Annihilation, its mind has not awakened, its combat power has not improved much, and it does not pose much threat to Benjamin and the others.
But what should they do
Regardless of killing the wolf or burning and destroying its body, the result may still be the same as at the beginning. He also destroyed Luke's body before, but the black shadow did not dissipate. This shows that if you want to eliminate the "will of flesh and blood", everything must be related to the ritual of "eating".
Otherwise... let's all eat wolf meat hot pot together
Benjamin didn’t know if eating such a ghost wolf would kill someone.
"Oh my God, it's really an undead creature." When the mages who were rescued saw this scene, they suddenly lamented, "Is the legend really going to come true?"
Benjamin turned around: "Legend? What legend?"
"It's that legend. All the mages in this area should have heard of it."
"We are not the local mages of Carites." Benjamin seemed to have discovered something and asked quickly, "What is that legend? Tell me."
"Then... Okay." The other party was a little surprised and replied slowly, "There have always been many legends about the origin of the Kandela Mountains. One of them is - when the undead appear, the world will collapse and everything will be destroyed. Only Abel Its power can purify sin."
Benjamin frowned.
Abel's power... refers to the Holy Light
They have tried using Holy Light before!
After thinking about it, Benjamin took out the cup again. He has gone all the way in all directions, and he has found nothing. The only thing that has not been explored is the holy relic that the church calls it.
From this simple metal cup, he could feel a faint sense of holiness, as if the holy light - or light element - had been deeply engraved into its texture.
Benjamin stared at it, his gaze as if he wanted to punch a hole in the cup.
How should he use it...
After thinking about it, Benjamin put the cup on the ground, and then began to direct his mages to throw holy light bombs into the cup. As a result, as soon as the Holy Light Bullet was thrown over, the cup was knocked away and almost flew into the Gate of Annihilation. Benjamin was so frightened that he quickly fished it back with water vapor.
Benjamin took the cup in his hand, made sure it wasn't damaged or anything, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Can't this thing gather holy light? Why can even a holy light bomb be shot away
After thinking about it, he felt that he had a terrible headache, so he simply threw his hands away, opened an opening on the igloo, and threw the cup directly in. Didn't it say "Abel's power purifies sin"? Okay then, just purify it for me!
However, as soon as he threw the cup in, the wolf suddenly stopped hitting the wall, opened its mouth, and swallowed the cup on the spot.
Benjamin was stunned.
That... is a cup!
However, after the surprise, he began to feel hopeful again. If there is a reaction, it means there is something going on, and if you think about it carefully, the ritual of purifying sins with the Holy Light and "eating"... Does this mean that all the key points are suddenly achieved
—It ate the Holy Light.
After eating the cup, the dead wolf suddenly began to shake and let out a shrill roar. Then, a golden flame suddenly appeared from its abdomen, burning like a flower that suddenly bloomed.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding mages were startled.
"This is... the Holy Flame, a divine spell that only the Pope can use."
Benjamin also took a deep breath and stared intently at the flame that appeared in the wolf's belly.
The flames spread very quickly, and within a short time, the entire wolf was engulfed, and spread on the ground. Even the igloo built by Benjamin couldn't stop the temperature and melted.
In an instant, the flames occupied a large area, and Benjamin and the others had to take a few steps back, watching the development of the situation in amazement.
The wolf quickly turned into ashes, but the flames still did not go out. Instead, they spread on the ground very regularly, left and right, as if... it was like it was drawing on the ground.
Benjamin's heart moved.
"It is conveying some kind of information." The system suddenly said.
Soon, the golden flame finished painting what it wanted to paint, and together with the wolf and the cup, completely disappeared from the world. The Gate of Annihilation in the sky did not disappear. The mages were confused, but Benjamin ignored the pain in his body and grabbed the system and immediately started questioning.
"What does it say?"
The flame transformed from the cup conveys a message—which may well be the key to solving all problems!
The system seemed unsure, saying: "From my point of view, this seems to be... a kind of encoding?"
Benjamin was a little confused: "What code? Please explain it clearly."
"I don't know either. It was an inexplicable intuition that told me." The system replied helplessly, "Wait a minute. I'll create a file and run the code to see what I can get."
“…”
The system just fell silent, using its programming language to analyze these things. Benjamin didn't know anything and could only return to reality. Facing the countless confused eyes in front of him, he also had a headache.
How should he explain it to his mage
Fortunately, the system didn't take too long. Soon, it appeared again and said with great excitement: "I, I know, what the flame conveyed was the soul information of those two elders. After the holy flame purified their souls, these Fragments of information remain!”
Benjamin was stunned at the time.
Soul information...how did it change to such a profound place in an instant.
"Oh, this thing is very troublesome to explain." The system said helplessly, "Actually, it is similar to your memory file. In my opinion, it is just a bunch of data. As for how it is converted into data, I don't know. "
Hearing this, Benjamin thought for a moment and said: "Then... you have their soul information, can you simulate their spiritual power imprints?"
They can leave the nonsense to study later. The most important thing right now is to solve the big black hole in the sky!
Laila also said that the control of the Gate of Annihilation is basically accomplished by relying on the caster's mental mark.
"I... It seems okay." The system replied hesitantly.
"Then try it quickly!"
Just like that, the system went silent again. After a moment, a strange wave suddenly came from Benjamin. Benjamin didn't even know what was happening, but the surprised voices of the mages came from behind him.
"Teacher, the Gate of Annihilation has collapsed!"
Benjamin turned around in shock and saw that the huge black hole in the sky suddenly began to collapse as if some qualitative change had occurred internally.
"Look! This is what I did! This is the power of super invincible artificial intelligence!" The system shouted excitedly in Benjamin's mind.
Benjamin didn't pay any attention to what it was shouting.
At this moment, he just stared intently at the vision in the sky.
The surrounding space was distorted, black particles were flying everywhere, and strange light flowed... It was as if a cosmic spectacle had occurred, and the huge Gate of Annihilation slowly disappeared from everyone's eyes.
The night sky at the center of the mountain returned to wilderness-like silence, as if nothing had happened.
