Soul Echo was born from the influence of the book "Swamp Man".
Using shadow as the carrier of ability is also related to this book.
In the concept of this book, shadow can also be regarded as a person's soul.
This is the source of Moyo’s thinking.
but--
Losing the shadow that carries the shadow clone does not mean that Moyu has lost the ability of "soul echo".
Strictly speaking, Moyu has no shadow, so he cannot use multiple abilities closely related to shadow.
Such as shadow clone, shadow change, shadow space and other abilities.
So as long as the shadow can come back, Moyu can continue to use the ability of soul echo.
The only way Moyu can think of to retrieve his shadow is to beat the wishing machine in the enemy's Hakka family...
However, this solution involves too much.
It's not that I'm worried about the price after making a wish. After all, Killua can use the wishing machine to force his power.
And Moyu knew that as long as he brought it up, Killua would definitely agree without hesitation.
But the people from the enemy family will not allow this to happen.
If Moyu and Killua want to force themselves, then their ability to "force" without having to bear the cost may be exposed to the enemy family.
Therefore, as long as he is not in a hurry to retrieve the shadow, Moyo will not rush to trouble Killua.
As for the soul embers that I got after removing my thoughts today, the so-called effect of filling the soul is unclear. Compared with this, Moyu is more concerned about the effect of giving human nature to dead objects...
To understand it literally, it means to make a dead object have autonomous consciousness.
This is very interesting.
Then Moyu suddenly thought that the black knife that he manifested using his "mind" could also be regarded as a "dead object", right?
So, if a unit of "soul embers" is injected into the black knife, can the remaining humanity in the embers be used to directly give the black knife autonomous consciousness?
When Moyu thought deeply about this and calculated the feasibility, he suddenly thought of the lost shadow clone...
His shadow clone can be classified as a mind beast, but it does not have autonomous consciousness, so when using its abilities, it must issue corresponding operating instructions in its consciousness.
If "Soul Ember" can have an effect on shadow clones...
Moyu shook his head.
There is no if——
Although he would choose the latter between "Black Knife" and "Shadow Clone".
But whether the shadow clone can return is still unknown.
The only thing that allowed him to choose was the black knife.
Moyo's strong curiosity made him impatient to inject the "embers" into the black knife to see what changes would come.
In the process of thinking, Moyu walked into an alleyway unknowingly.
This place is the gap between two high-rise buildings. Every once in a while, you can see a door on the wall of the building on both sides.
Since the sunlight is blocked, there is a hint of coolness that is rare in the city.
Buzz——
The phone vibrated slightly.
Moyu sensed it immediately, came back from his thoughts, and immediately took out his phone to check.
But it was Jin who replied with a message.
"What are you going to do?"
The message did not ask about Nitro's situation because he believed that Moyo could remove the power of the curse on Nitro.
The information also did not ask about the target of the murder that Moyu guessed, because he knew that Moyu must have already had a target when he explained the situation.
"Cut the grass and roots to avoid future troubles."
Moyu stopped where he was and sent a message back to Jin.
After a while,
The phone buzzed and vibrated again.
Moyu lowered his head to look at the phone screen and clicked on the text message he just received.
"Want to help? When doing something like this, you can't leave any traces."
"No need, if you are not careful, you will become a public enemy of the association."
"After hearing what you said, I became a little interested. Can I know who the target is you want to attack?"
"Paliston."
As Moyou sent this text message, Jin, who originally responded quickly, suddenly fell silent for more than ten seconds.
This result was obviously beyond Jin's expectation.
According to King's judgment, it is unlikely that Pariston did this.
It's just that he was not present at the scene. Even if he had this opinion, it was just an opinion without any basis to support it.
Therefore, it is impossible to express opinions at will, thereby affecting Moyu's decision-making.
This is why Jin was silent for more than ten seconds.
However, Moyu dared to take the risk of becoming a public enemy of the association and also took action against Pariston...
Based on this determination alone, Jin knew that Moyu must have a motive to take action.
In fact, this is also true.
Even if the Nitro incident has nothing to do with Pariston, Moyo will sooner or later get rid of Pariston because of the Westward Journey incident.
And the appearance of the after-death curse only speeded up Moyu's attack.
Jin was silent for a long time, and then finally replied with a message.
"It's quite unexpected, so do you need help?"
"No."
Moyu still rejected Jin's kindness.
Being an enemy of the association is no joke.
As far as this matter was concerned, he didn't want to drag the money down.
And strictly speaking, attacking Pariston is, in a sense, his private matter.
"Kim, what type do you think Pariston will be?"
I wanted to put away my phone and end this exchange, but Moyu asked Jin such a question by mistake.
After a while, Moyu received Jin's reply.
"What type...I think it's the materialization type or the trait type."
After reading the message, Moyu put away his phone.
Is it a manifestation system or a trait system...
It's hard to say.
But no matter what system it is, Moyu doesn't need to worry too much.
Normally, the party with strong hardware capabilities must always consider the capabilities of the operating system.
Moyu has nearly 400% mental resistance, so there is basically no need to worry about threats from operating system abilities.
The more troublesome thing is the ability to transfer the target into the mind space.
"Let's wait and see..."
Moyu walked out of the alley and went straight to the Hunter Building.
He wanted Ikusube to monitor Pariston's movements during this period.
If Pariston leaves the Hunter Building or is alone, he can take action directly.
time flies.
Night falls quickly.
Colorful lights light up one by one throughout the city of Swadani.
It was as if the whole city had just woken up from this moment.
Moyu stood on the edge of the rooftop on the top of the Hunter Building, overlooking the stream of traffic below.
He stayed here like this for several hours.
The night gradually darkened, and the full moon disappeared behind the thick clouds.
But the city of Swadani is still brightly lit.
The traffic flow on various traffic arteries shows no sign of decreasing.
Buzz——
At this moment, the mobile phone that Mo Yuna had held in his hand for several hours suddenly vibrated.
Moyu picked up the phone and opened the message.
Inside is a positioning message sent by Ikushubei.
Huhu——
The evening breeze on the rooftop of a high-rise building is very strong.
Moyu stood facing the wind, a chill flashed across his eyes as he looked at the phone.
At the junction of the suburbs of Swadani City, there is a high-rise building that is about to be completed.
I don’t know if it’s because of a lack of funds or some other reason.
The construction of this high-rise building suddenly stopped, and the bustling scene during the day was gone. By late at night, it was completely unpopular at all.
There are very few pedestrians around the entire construction site.
There are only a few security guards guarding the gate of the real estate construction site.
Looking into the building from the security booth, there is a vague sense of gloom.
now.
Deep in the building shrouded in darkness, a figure stood in front of a load-bearing pillar.
This figure is clearly Paris Stone.
In his hand he holds a mobile phone.
In the dark, the dim light of the mobile phone screen becomes extremely conspicuous.
A rough and heroic man's voice came from the mobile phone.
"It seems that Hui Guorou doesn't want to wait any longer. That ant that came from the Dark Continent might have something to do with him."
The owner of this voice is Nitro's son Biande.
Pariston informed BYANDE of what happened today.
But Biyande didn't care at all what Hui Guoru did without telling him.
What can prove this is his calm tone without any fluctuation.
Pariston leaned on the load-bearing pillar and reminded: "But this account... will be settled on your head."
"It doesn't matter."
Biyande still had that nonchalant tone.
Misunderstand?
Or even framed?
So what?
It's just such a trivial thing, it's not worth wasting your emotions on Yang De.
But if someone takes this opportunity to come and make trouble, Biyang De will destroy everything with his fists, whether they are humans or ghosts.
Nowadays, only the "Dark Continent" is worth paying more attention to than Yang De.
As for what Huiguorou is thinking about and what he wants to do.
He will not encourage or stop it.
Everyone has the qualification to make independent decisions, whether he or she is a bastard.
Even that bad old man who used many tricks to prevent him from going to the Dark Continent...
It doesn't matter what's right or wrong, just do whatever you want.
This is the freedom that human beings should enjoy!
Pariston understood Biande's style and character, and also knew that there was no point in continuing to remind him.
Anyway, he has informed the "relevant situation", which can be regarded as fulfilling his responsibility.
"I understand, but...it's nothing, that's it."
Pariston originally wanted to mention that Gray Pot Pork might not give up, but thinking about Biyang De's attitude, he didn't bother to waste more words.
After hanging up the call, Pariston slowly lowered his right hand holding the phone.
Click.
With just a little force, he crushed the phone into pieces.
"It's almost time."
Pariston let go of his palm and let the remains of his phone fall to the ground, muttering thoughtfully to himself in the darkness.
Ta-ta-
He suddenly turned around and walked some distance forward.
In this environment where you can hear a pin drop, the sound of footsteps can be heard far away.
Suddenly, there were other sounds in the darkness.
It was a scream-like sound that broke through the air, coming from the left rear of Pariston.
Listening to the sudden movement, Pariston looked calm and seemed to be mentally prepared for it.
To be more precise -
This situation was anticipated.
Facing the attack, Pariston turned sideways and dodged the unknown object coming from behind at the critical moment.
Hearing the sharp sound piercing the air, Pariston's vision filled with darkness could vaguely see several slender red streams from near to far.
"knife?"
Accustomed to the darkness here, Pariston could barely see what had just attacked him.
It seems to be a knife.
The specific outline is difficult to see clearly, but it is certain that the long knife of unknown origin has a red luster.
"Um?!"
Pariston watched the red thread-like light go away in the darkness, and then saw the red thread-like light go and come back again, flying towards him.
With no more time to react, Pariston moved several distances laterally to avoid the unknown knife that was flying towards him.
"Operation system..."
Pariston squinted at the red stream of light that was disappearing again, thinking silently in his heart.
I originally thought it was the enhanced system of the flying knife style, but judging from the phenomenon of the knife changing direction, it is basically the operation system...
As his thoughts were turning, the red thread-like stream of light representing an unknown long knife in the darkness struck again, and the speed was obviously getting faster.
Pariston's eyes narrowed slightly, and he mobilized his mind power to focus on his feet.
Bang!
Pariston stepped on the ground and the concrete floor cracked.
Relying on the momentum generated when he stepped on the ground, Pariston moved sideways again, and then stared at the unknown long knife passing in front of his eyes.
"Is it an illusion... No, it has indeed become wider."
As he retreated, Pariston had a look of surprise in his eyes.
Visibility was poor, but Pariston had long since adapted to the darkness.
Just now, he noticed that the attack area of the unknown long knife that attacked him had become wider.
This means that the volume of the long knife has changed.
At the same time, it also made Pariston's judgment of leaning towards the operating system become confusing.
"Um?"
Just when Pariston was having more doubts, a bright moonlight shone into the building from outside.
But those thick clouds moved away from the full moon, causing the bright moonlight to shine on the earth.
As the silvery moonlight invaded the building, Pariston finally saw clearly the object that attacked him.
Yes, it's a knife.
But very weird.
The knife was about four to five meters long, but the width of the blade was at least two meters.
And you can't see the existence of the handle, the whole knife only has the blade.
On the ridiculously wide blade, there is a linear light flowing like magma, which looks like numerous blood vessels throughout the human body.
"What is this?"
A look of surprise flashed in Pariston's eyes.
A strange-looking handleless long knife glowing red was hanging in the air.
It didn't give Pariston much time to think. He suddenly straightened the blade and shot at Pariston like an arrow without using any force.
The sharp sound of breaking through the air echoed throughout the floors.
Pariston suppressed the turmoil in his heart, quickly moved his body sideways, and exited the attack path of the weird knife.
But at this moment, the strange knife flying towards Pariston expanded in an instant.
To be more precise, it grew longer and larger, spanning the entire floor space in an instant.
Pariston, who originally retreated to a safe area, was cut in half by the strange knife that suddenly cut across the entire floor.
Pariston's body from the abdomen up stood on the steel plate-like blade that cut across the entire floor.
His face was fixed with a look of astonishment.
…………
On the top of a tall building.
Moyu looked at the unfinished building shrouded in silver moonlight in the distance.
"You are already a mature sword, you have to know how to cut people by yourself."
