In a few steps, a huge golden shuriken came out and flew towards the center of the lake close to the water. The three elemental energies attached to the blade were intertwined and stimulated, shining with dazzling light, as if it would
The entire night sky seemed to be broken.
In less than two seconds, this powerful shuriken flew to Sherlock's forehead, and its blade would pierce his head as long as it rotated at another angle.
However, no matter how powerful the power is, if it is only built on illusion, there will always be a moment of collapse.
When the power of fate was withdrawn from the clone's body, the energy of the shuriken was instantly dissipated.
It kept spinning, but could not advance any further. Finally, it spun smaller and smaller, and disappeared out of thin air along with its owner, or it could be said that the traces of its existence were wiped away by the system.
"I just said you were late!" Sherlock slowly opened his left hand, which was clenched into a fist, revealing a gray seed.
This should be the prop about destiny and the source of all events.
He could feel that the overlapping fate lines on this island were disappearing, everything would return to normal, and he got what he wanted.
This should be a joyful moment, but there was always a question lingering in his mind. That clone should be constantly hunting other clones, thereby absorbing their unique humanity.
So if enough samples are eventually absorbed, will it really be combined into a complete human nature and become a being that surpasses artificial intelligence?
"Hey - Sherlock, have you found the treasure?" Ross called his name from a distance.
All the fate lines have been decohered, so naturally the only ones left are the four people who went to the island with him from the beginning.
After everyone gathered together, they walked back while talking about their experiences along the way.
"You know, I also played a piano and flute with my clone."
"I should have killed more than thirty of myself. It seems that my fighting skills still have a lot of room for improvement."
"I didn't expect this island to be so interesting. The lines of fate overlap. Is that what you say? Sherlock, eh? Sherlock, why did you run behind?"
After hearing this, everyone looked back.
"What's wrong? Duoqi's navigator must be running low on energy. We must get back to the ship quickly."
"Yes, we have everything, let's go back quickly!"
"I'm still rushing to Presper Island to get the money."
"The ship is just ahead."
…
Listening to the anxious urgings of these four people, Sherlock further confirmed his suspicion.
"That shouldn't be my boat," he said, pointing to the huge shadow on the bay in the distance.
"That's our ship, didn't we go back the way we came?" Hui Feng asked in surprise.
"That's your ship, but it's not my ship." He said as he took out the seed from the ring.
Then he said to the returning wind: "When I passed by the captain's cabin, what I heard was that I was about to leave the sea of mist, not a problem with the navigation system."
He turned his eyes and looked at Los: "You kissed me on the cheek, not on the forehead."
Next is Fuyun: "Your swimming speed shouldn't have become faster."
"The last one is my guess, pretty boy. You seemed to have called your wife on the boat. You don't have to be so nervous once you get off the boat."
Every time Sherlock said something, the man's face darkened, which also confirmed the authenticity of these words.
"I used to think that this was just some errors and misunderstandings in details. Now it seems that our perceptions are both correct. It's just that our fate lines are slightly different in the middle."
"So, you are also the clones in the separated destiny line." When he said this last sentence, the four figures in front of him also disappeared from this world like their countless predecessors.
Only now did he completely understand the secrets of this island, no, it should be said that it was the entire small sea area surrounding this island.
It is not that grasping this seed of destiny can unravel these intertwined fate lines. The real power of this seed should allow people to choose their own destiny lines at will.
He believed that this line was true, and then everything would develop according to this line, just like when he walked onto the disappeared Mist Walker in front of him.
As for the future development, Sherlock thinks that at most it will be a mission failure, leveling up and attribute loss.
And when these last few lines of fate disappeared one after another, a griffin landed in front of him carrying a young girl.
"The person chosen by fate, you are finally here."
These two NPCs must know something, and they may even have planned the whole thing.
Sherlock said respectfully: "Kojève, it seems that I have passed your test."
"Oh, you know my name. It seems that you have already seen my clone." The griffin was not much surprised that someone could directly call out his name.
What surprised me was the player Sherlock. Well, he did a complete show and the system was very attentive this time.
At this time, the girl also got off the back of the griffin, and her legs that had been covered under the long skirt finally revealed their true appearance. The two sheep's hooves stepped on the ground and made two shivering sounds.
Half human and half sheep, and having no other characteristics of sheep, it must be a lake spirit. Only this kind of creature can combine these two contradictory forms so perfectly.
Well, to be honest, appearance trumps everything else.
"Son of Destiny, now that you have obtained the Seed of Destiny, you must also understand the curse on this island."
"Back then, Kojev and I were entrusted by Rogge to temporarily keep the Seed of Destiny. Unexpectedly, we didn't wait for Rogge in the end, and we were still trapped on this island. More than 100 years have passed, and we finally waited for you.
Appear."
These two NPCs are both the ones chosen by fate and the children of fate. Each one wears a higher hat than the other. In fact, it is just a process, and another player will get the same treatment.
"Now we can finally leave here. In return, you can choose two items from our collection." The lake spirit girl said as she took off her bracelet and handed it over.
Sherlock actually wanted to ask if he could reward himself with this space bracelet, but after comparing the combat prowess of the two sides, he held back his words.
Just look at things honestly.
These two NPCs can be friends with the Pirate King Rogge, so they must have picked up a lot of good things by the way, otherwise it is really impossible to explain the treasure in this bracelet that is about to burst.
And these are only what he can use at this level. The lake spirit girl also has a similar bracelet on her other hand, which should contain something more precious and advanced.
