Chapter 650 Confession (Part 2) [6000 words]
"After Tang San cut off the memories of those six years, his real daughter, the little girl named Tang Wutong, has died."
"The personality has been wiped out, and what is left is just a memory. The memory separated from the personality is just a series of simple pictures, but the personality separated from the soul has been broken, and it needs the soul to carry it."
"However, the soul is a very strange thing, with extremely strong self-healing properties. After that part of memory and personality was cut off, what Tang San didn't expect was that a personality would be born again in the originally blank soul. "
Qian Chaoguang tried to keep his tone as calm as possible and explained it as it was.
Wang Dong pointed at himself blankly: "That personality is me?"
Qian Chaoguang nodded: "Yes, it's you. So the memory of when you were seven years old did not disappear out of thin air, but your personality was not fully formed at that time, so you could not record what you saw. Just instinct."
"The reason why Tang San wants to inject Tang Wutong's six years of memories into Qiu'er's soul is to seek the fate of the soul beast clan that she carries, and also for that trace of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline."
"Qiu'er's Golden Dragon King bloodline, plus a trace of the Silver Dragon King's bloodline in his hand, and in order to carry both of them, he specifically asked the Butterfly God to bestow upon you the Butterfly Spirit of the Goddess of Light."
"The combination of the three is enough to create a super martial spirit that surpasses the god-level martial spirit. If nothing else happens, it will be the most powerful martial spirit in the history of the entire soul master world, with the legendary Dragon God bloodline. "
"If this plan really succeeds, the strength of this martial spirit is estimated to be stronger than any martial spirit recorded in Shrek's history. Even the ultimate martial spirit will be inferior."
"It's just that he doesn't know clearly that soul, mind, personality, wisdom, memory... these things cannot be confused."
"The most powerful martial spirit in history. The most powerful martial spirit in history."
Wang Dong chewed this sentence back and forth in his mouth, and suddenly showed a sad smile.
"The steel seal of thought controls actions and personality, and the seal of divine consciousness monitors every move. The combination of the three creates a powerful martial spirit, and the luck of the soul beast clan gives birth to strong men."
"As expected of the legendary Lord Poseidon who strategized, defeated the two gods, and defeated the Spirit Empire. His heart is harder and colder than I imagined."
"It seems that what he wants is not a daughter, nor a thug, nor even a complete person. What he wants is just a weapon."
"A weapon that can only be used and wielded by him. A weapon that is indestructible and unfavorable. A weapon that has no ego."
Wang Dong raised his head, tears already covering his face inadvertently.
"I really want money. I suddenly regret asking about my life experience. Can you help me and cut off this part of my memory? I don't want it anymore."
Qian Chaoguang stepped over and sat on the flawless white hospital bed.
He didn't speak, but silently took Wang Dong into his arms and patted her back gently.
At this moment, Wang Dong's strong psychological defense finally collapsed.
The carefreeness and carelessness that had been forcibly maintained on his face could no longer stand for even a moment, and collapsed in an instant, turning into tears in his eyes.
How could she really not care?
Wang Dong has been looking forward to meeting her biological parents for thirteen whole years.
Her wish was ordinary and humble, even inconspicuous.
She is just a girl who longs for the warmth of her parents.
Even once.
This silly girl who is usually carefree, her life is even more miserable than that of Huo Gua in the original work.
Even though in the end Huo Gua had become a useless person and a zombie-like puppet, he still had a final harbor.
A mother who loved him unconditionally and truly loved him.
But what does Wang Dong have?
She had almost nothing.
The favor of the God Realm belongs to Xiao Qi.
The happiness of the family belongs to Tang Wutong.
Even Huo Gua's love was mostly given to Orange and Wang Qiuer.
How many days did Wang Dong really enjoy?
She and the person she truly loved had already died in the Qiankun Qing Valley.
The only two people who really cared about Wang Dong, Daming and Er Ming, didn't even get to see her for the last time.
What they saw was the body belonging to Wang Dong.
Looking at Wang Dong who was crying, Qian Chaoguang felt mixed emotions in his heart.
At this moment, he suddenly understood something and figured something out.
It turns out that in the original work, in front of the Haotian Sect, Er Ming's hatred for Huo Gua and Daming's forcibly suppressed murderous intention and anger were not staged at all.
At that moment, Daming really wanted to kill Huo Gua.
But under Tang San's gaze, Daming had no choice but to do and say that.
Er Ming, who has a bad temper, is upright and stubborn, is unwilling to do it, so all this can only be done by his elder brother.
yes.
As people who raised Wang Dong with their own hands, how could they not understand what this meant?
The child who was raised by the two brothers, the girl who chased them and called "big daddy and second daddy" again and again, is dead.
Dead forever.
Died at the hands of her biological father.
What Daming said to Erming:
"Let's go and see Dong'er again. This girl, when she wakes up again, everything will be different."
This is said not only to Er Ming, but also to himself.
When Dong'er woke up again, she was no longer that Dong'er.
The person who replaced him was called Tang Wutong.
Wang Dong lay in Qian Chaoguang's arms and cried, tears covering his clothes.
After an unknown amount of time, the crying gradually stopped, leaving only faint sobs.
The strong emotional ups and downs and violent crying caused her body, which had not fully recovered, to fall into a self-protective coma again.
Qian Chaoguang gently moved her off him and helped her back to the bed.
Qian Chaoguang couldn't help but let out a long sigh as he looked at Wang Dong's long, lustrous pink-blue hair and the corners of his eyes with tear stains.
This world and the people in this world are so miserable.
Even if it is the Son of Destiny or the people around the Son of Destiny, almost no one can live happily.
Everyone has their own suffering.
He stood up slumped, raised his hand to shoot out a few cold lights, and began to clean up the coffee liquid that had been spilled on the ground.
Reflected on the dark and smooth ice surface are the lights hanging high in the sky.
With a flash of silver-white light, Huo Yutong, wearing a white scientific robe, appeared next to Qian Chaoguang.
Purple-gold eyes swept across, and Huo Yutong asked worriedly: "Is Dong'er okay?"
"I don't know, maybe it's okay."
Qian Chaoguang picked up the broken pieces of the cup and kneaded them back together piece by piece.
The dark coffee liquid was burned by the holy flame rising from his hand and turned into a wisp of smoke.
"I have never realized so deeply before that Wang Dong's heart is far stronger than we imagined. Her life was not easy either."
"I hope she can come out on her own," Huo Yutong whispered, "It's better not to have such parents. Since Tang San can even kill his own daughter, what else can't he do? What about?"
"So, we have to defeat him. For ourselves, for our friends, and for the thousands of people in the entire Douluo Continent who have been tortured."
Qian Chaoguang said calmly, with strong anger in his eyes.
He reached out and touched Wang Dong's forehead, and the originally dim trident symbol suddenly shattered.
As the four halos on Wang Dong's limbs and the alchemy device buckled on her Dantian were removed, a familiar wave of soul power gradually spread out.
On the instrument that monitored her vital signs, many data and words began to change.
[Command confirmation, it has been detected that the conceptual projection blocking device has disappeared, and rescanning is starting]
[The Butterfly Martial Spirit of the Goddess of Light has been unlocked]
[The Clear Sky Hammer Spirit has been unlocked]
[Law of Light connection has been restored]
[Martial spirit unlocking degree: 99%]
[Soul integrity: 99.78%]
[Warning: The seal of the Sea of Spirits has not yet been lifted, and the unlocking degree of the martial soul has not yet reached 100%. It may cause unknown consequences when using the martial soul, and the possibility of losing control of soul power and soul skills increases]
【.】
Qian Chaoguang glanced at the readings on the instrument: "We will send Wang Dong up later, and let Liu Cai come back to speed up the self-healing process of her soul, and take care of her these days. Is your apprentice busy now? ?Is it the Jade Dragon Pot Martial Spirit?"
Huo Yutong tilted his head and thought for a moment: "I guess he won't be busy anymore. I sent him to Shrek City for disaster relief before. There shouldn't be so many things that require his help now."
Qian Chaoguang nodded: "Then call him back later. The food-based soul skills created by his martial soul are quite good in terms of recovery."
"Okay." Huo Yutong agreed, "By the way, brother, why don't you take down the sealing box? Wang Dong shouldn't need this now, right?"
"I'm afraid not, it's not time yet." Qian Chaoguang sighed, "Wang Dong will have to wear this thing for a long time in the future."
"Unless it's in a demiplane, or we find a better way to block the gaze from the gods."
"I have removed all the spiritual brand and mental imprint that Tang San left in her body. As long as he notices this, he will definitely become furious."
"For other people who have nothing to do with him, due to the laws of the divine world, he cannot do anything directly. But after all, Wang Dong is his daughter in name, and he can intervene at will."
"If he lowers his consciousness at this time, re-injects the brand of consciousness into Wang Dong's body, or even reads Wang Dong's memory, everything we have done will be exposed."
"Perhaps, after I truly condense my godhood, the soul network and belief network will also complete a transformation, and the firewall constructed should be able to intercept Tang San's spiritual consciousness breakthrough."
Qian Chaoguang considered it very comprehensively and cautiously.
But what he didn't know was that not long ago, Tang San had been deprived of his identity and authority as the controller of the God Realm by the God of Destruction and Lie Yan.
Tang San now was like a lonely wild dog licking his wounds in the dark.
All he could do was just watch, it was impossible to actually do anything.
With the Evil God King Ji Dong lurking around him, and the God King of Destruction constantly watching, Tang San was already being watched to death.
Wang Dong's current situation is far safer than ever before.
The shackles on her body had been shattered by the combined punch of Qian Chaoguang, the God of Destruction and the Flame Queen.
There are only two final steps left before true freedom.
"Since this is the case, we can only let the goose suffer for the time being."
Huo Yutong smoothed Wang Dong's slightly dry hair and said sadly.
"By the way, I just received a report before I came here. The martial arts laboratory over there in the Star Dou Forest has made new progress. The second martial soul imparting method has basically been completed. The mass production of twin martial spirits has become a paper trail. Possibility on the face of it.”
"almost done?"
Qian Chaoguang showed a surprised expression, and finally there was some joy on his face.
"This is good news. Come on, let's go take a look."
"I won't go." Huo Yutong waved her hand, "I will take the big goose to the medical center, and then I have to go back to the laboratory to help. The interference bomb created by Brother Caitou and Teacher Xuan has entered the final testing stage. It’s over, there’s still one last tremor left.”
"In order to interfere with the bomb project, Yi Lao's research and transformation of the Death Tower and my reverse engineering of the Flame Sky Luo have been temporarily put on hold. Most of the people in the scientific research area have been arrested by Teacher Xuan to help. .”
"Everyone's bonus will be doubled this quarter. It will be taken out of my pocket and not through public accounts. Each of the undead creatures will be given an extra box of soul crystals, which can also be exchanged for other resources."
This time Qian Chaoguang finally showed a bright smile on his face.
"Now, as long as we solve the problem of light energy conversion technology and miniaturized free energy conversion device, and cooperate with the high-energy compression array soul guide brought from Mingdetang, the technological means will be enough to overtake us in a corner."
Huo Yutong added: "In the next step, Teacher Xuan plans to further transform the high-energy compressed and sealed milk bottle, and then integrate the interference technology with the second-generation energy-gathering armor."
"Coupled with the auxiliary soul and the conscious beast martial soul, we will eventually create a martial soul battle armor that is enough to equip the entire army, at least all human legions."
"Now the forging skills of death knights have generally reached the peak of spiritual forging. There are more than a hundred people who have broken through to the soul forging level. The production of rare metals at the soul forging level is enough to reach the expected goal."
“So in terms of research funding”
"Here! Take as many batches as you want. As long as Teacher Xuan can make it, we can get whatever materials he wants and give us as much funding as he wants. We will give us the maximum support within our capabilities!"
Qian Chaoguang waved his hand proudly and directly approved an unlimited scientific research funding slip. Huo Yutong had the final say in everything.
Saving money has no use, you have to spend it.
In the Immortal Empire, the research department and the military department always have the most sufficient funds.
Then it is the turn of other departments to get points.
He worked so hard to pull off such a big deal, wasn't it just to have sufficient funds for scientific research and training?
As long as the technology can enter the mature stage in the shortest time and be deployed in the entire army, the money will not be wasted.
With so many mines across the continent, coupled with the support of real industries across the continent, even ten more Xuan Ziwen can be burned together with money.
The vast majority of Tiancai Dibao and research materials are produced in the industries affiliated to the Pixiu Chamber of Commerce themselves, which is much cheaper than purchasing them from outside.
Coupled with the three wealth-making behemoths of the soul tool industry, spice industry, and bulk trading of rare metals, the Immortal Empire's money-making speed has even left Shrek far behind.
After approving the funding slip for the Scientific Research Department, Qian Chaoguang was also a little itchy about the results from the Wuhun Research Department.
So, he left the secret area on the ground floor as quickly as possible, entered the hub hall, and went straight to the Second Martial Spirit Research Project Team located next to the Lake of Life.
If there is one person in the scientific research department who can avoid being captured by Xuan Ziwen, it must be the members of the Wuhun Research Department.
Although the Wuhun Research Department is under the Scientific Research Department, its scientific research priority is rarely ranked at the same level as Xuan Ziwen's project.
Don’t forget, this is a research project that was already in progress before the Scientific Research Department was even born.
At the same time, it was also a research project that was first spearheaded by Electrolux, and even Qian Chaoguang, the emperor of the empire, had to contribute.
Ever since the master and apprentice created the first artificial soul ring in the far north, the Immortal Empire's research on martial souls has never stopped.
As of today, it has been nearly ten years.
Martial spirit is the foundation of the existence of the soul master system, and it is also the core of the development of the soul guide system and Douluo civilization to the present.
For the current soul master system, whether it is training or improving combat power, the ultimate origin must return to the martial soul.
In the past ten years, the research progress of the Wuhun department has been gratifying.
The halos and alchemy devices previously used to imprison Wang Dong's martial spirit were one of their creations.
As for the Wuhun Armor, Energy-Gathering Armor, Battle Armor, etc., they and Qian Chaoguang worked hard day and night to increase their power bit by bit.
Through the research led by Electrolux, the master of soul science and the master of weapon refining, and the analysis of Qian Chaoguang, the reserve true god, the martial soul research department has initially determined the composition of some martial souls.
Especially regarding the beast spirit, they have basically figured out some of its principles.
The mainstream research on martial souls in the soul master world and Shrek Academy concludes that martial souls are a unique energy structure that is similar to human organs and can be passed down along the bloodline.
In human terms: Wuhun is composed of soul power, like an alternative organ, and can be recorded by human genes and passed on to future generations.
But researchers from the Wuhun Research Department don't think so.
The latest research results show that the essence of the existence of Wuhun is only two simple words - projection.
And this happens to be due to the continuous research on the second martial soul conferring method, and it was demonstrated after a large number of actual experiments.
During the second martial soul conferment experiment, scientific researchers once discovered a very strange phenomenon.
Sometimes, after the same type of soul beast is given to the experimenter as a martial soul, its power, ability, and appearance will be different to varying degrees.
Once upon a time, scientific researchers used ten-thousand-year-old Canglan tigers, both of which seemed to have been severely damaged, as experimental subjects to transform them into martial spirits.
Initially, both conversions were successful.
Neither of the two soul masters who participated in the experiment felt any discomfort.
But when they were possessed by martial spirits, they discovered that the power of one of them, given by the Canglan Tiger Spirit, was completely different, and could even be called a world of difference.
But after a period of practice, the soul master with a less powerful martial soul discovered something surprisingly.
As he continued to practice, the power of the martial spirit naturally rebounded, and after a period of time, it was on par with the other experimenter.
What's even more strange is that there are often some soul beasts of the same type with huge individual differences that show a high degree of homogeneity after their martial souls are given to two different experimenters at the same time.
In the same experiment, scientific researchers gave a young, ten-thousand-year-old geomaniac bear that accidentally lost its front paws, and an old, but twilight, intact body, and gave two cultivation levels at the same time. The same soul master.
Everyone originally thought that there would definitely be a difference in power between the martial arts spirits transformed by old bears and young bears.
But who would have expected that after the transformation, the strength of the martial arts spirits of both sides was almost the same, and there was no missing limbs.
In order to clarify this issue, the scientific researchers and the soul beasts had to conduct a large number of experiments and demonstrations, and finally came up with a conjecture that could be justified.
That is to say: the second martial soul given by the day after tomorrow is essentially the projection of the soul beast's soul after being transformed by the law.
Even if the body is damaged, the soul may be sound.
There is almost no difference between young souls and old souls, so they will show the same power.
As for a soul that has been damaged, after it is transformed into a martial soul, the power projected will be relatively low due to problems with the soul itself.
As long as the injury is not too serious, the soul has a strong ability to heal itself.
With the training of soul masters and the nourishment of the sea of spirit, the injured soul gradually becomes replenished, and the power of the martial soul naturally increases.
Based on actual examples that happened to Qian Chaoguang, the researchers also inferred:
In the process of cultivation, the soul master also enhances and completes the soul of the soul beast in a disguised form.
If you get some opportunities that are enough to improve the essence of the martial soul, the improvement in the martial soul will also be fed back to the soul of the soul beast itself, resulting in a joint improvement.
It's the same truth as the Ice Emperor transformed from the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion into the Ice God.
As for the principles behind the naturally born beast souls and weapon souls, researchers are still not completely sure.
It may be the same projection principle as the artificial beast spirit, or it may really be the mainstream energy organ composition theory in the soul master world.
However, if one were to choose between the two, researchers would definitely prefer projection.
