If you were to select the person who helped Ash the most from Broken Lake Prison, the answer would be almost unquestionable - not Harvey, not Rona, not 222, not even Igurla, but Valkas Ur
.
If it weren't for Valkas, then Ash would have turned into a firework in the Blood Moon Trial. It is precisely because of this once-in-a-century opportunity for the "Judgement Elf" to bring out the malice deep in the hearts of the people of Cammon City, so Ya
Only Xiu, the cult leader who has become famous and popular, narrowly escaped death.
Naturally, Varkas did not want to save Ash in his subjective intention. Even if he gave the Heart Sword, Earth Sword, Wind Wall and other magical spirits to Ash before his death, he just wanted to cause trouble for Xilin.
Ash didn't think that he needed to accept Valkas's love. In fact, he went through a series of prison escapes, escaping from the blood moon, joining the funeral, escaping from Azula, the white mist mutation, being caught by Berdette, etc.
After the ups and downs, Ash almost forgot about the elf who blocked the knife for him.
Although meeting Valkas in the virtual realm was unexpected, it was reasonable.
After the death of the magician, the soul falls into the six levels of hell, where all emotions are washed away, leaving only the purest memory and soul. It falls into the virtual realm and becomes the projection of the magician, becoming a legacy test for future generations of magicians.
It is precisely because of this forced traditional bad habit that magicians cannot monopolize intellectual property rights at all. Even if countries are closed to each other, knowledge will still circulate in the virtual world, so there is a civilization of magicians flourishing.
As a two-winged magician, Valkas will of course become the magician's projection in the Time Continent after his death. The heroic soul commanders are all transformed from the magician's projection, so it is reasonable for him to become the heroic soul commander.
When Varkas died, Ash thought about whether he would meet his reflection in the virtual world, but he didn't expect that his fate would be so mysterious.
but--
"Aren't you a man?" Ya Xiu asked blankly.
He and Varkas had a close relationship with each other. No matter how blind Ash was, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference between male and female!
"I have not always been a man." Valkas, the heroic soul, said calmly: "After being a female elf for nearly a hundred years, it is normal to want to experience the world of male elves. It is very common among the elves.
Thinking, humans will also choose the gender they like when they reach adulthood. Almost all the elves in my memory have gone through a 'transition period'. If they like it, they will stay the same, and if they don't, they will change back."
"In addition to being curious about the opposite sex, another reason is that I have a child of my own. According to my thinking, if I don't undergo plastic surgery, living with my children will still be suspicious of my beloved church. But since I have undergone plastic surgery, I might as well
I will directly change my gender, so that others will at most suspect that I am a pedophile elf, but will not suspect that I am related to the child."
"However, body transformation in reality will not be recognized by the virtual world. It can only show the essential shape of my soul, so I changed back to my original appearance... Are there any questions?"
There are so many questions!
Instead of undergoing plastic surgery or simply having a sex change, why not rent a house anyway and pay more to buy a house? Is the slippery slope so complete?
Although Ash has heard many times about the blood moon biological transformation that is the best in the world, most of these technological achievements are reflected in the people at the bottom who mechanically transform themselves to adapt to advanced capitalist production. He really did not expect that the middle class
He's so good at playing - he can't see that Varcas was never a man!
But then things get a little tricky.
Seeing Ash silently raising his sword, Varcas gently brushed the sword's blade with his fingers and assumed a standard swordsmanship stance: "Do you want to kill me too?"
"Yes." Ya Xiu said bluntly: "Killing the commander will reveal the map, the spirit of spiritualism and the commander's manual. These are the resources I urgently need. As I just told you, I am now trapped in the Spider Tower.
I must hunt down and not miss any opportunity to quickly increase my strength... I want to protect the people I value."
Yes, Varkas did save Ash, and the magic spirit he sent also helped Ash too much - without the Heart Sword, Ash would not have been able to use the miraculous escape of Kill Me; the miracle of the Earth Sword and Wind Wall combination
'Sword Barrier' is still an important part of his tactical system.
But Valkas was already dead, and was beaten into a pool of mosquito blood by the Titan executioner during the Blood Moon Trial.
What remains in front of Ya Xiu now is just a thought from the past, a dead soul enlightened by the God Lord.
Although Ash can't appreciate Harvey's necromancy faction, the necromancer has one thing right - the dead should serve the living, not the other way around.
Even though he felt a little uneasy, Ash would not be merciful. He was not only burdened with his life, but also the future of the Sword Queen and the Witch.
"To protect others..." Varkas nodded: "So that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it."
"Then, Varkas," Ash took a deep breath: "Please give me some advice——"
"Can you please not ask for the commander's manual?"
Ash, who had been mentally prepared, was confused by this question. After a while, he said: "...is it okay?"
The benefits brought by the Commander's Manual are command skills and faction experience. Command skills are meaningless to the magician, and the little bit of faction experience Ash is not lacking.
But why do you ask?
"I can give you the spirit of spiritualism and the map." Varcas said calmly: "Can you please not kill me?"
Yaxiu didn't respond for a while: "...Why?"
"I have no soul power now. If I continue to fight with you, I will most likely die. If I can hand over a certain amount of resources in exchange for my own life, this deal is worth doing." Varkas said, "Unless you are at war with other countries.
, otherwise there is no need for the commander to fight to the end - there is no merit in dying here."
"But one of the commanders I killed before fought with me to the last minute..."
"Maybe he thought he had a chance to defeat you until he died." Varkas shook his head: "But I have no soul power and no followers, so the winning rate is too slim."
"But you are not the kind of person who surrenders without fighting!"
Varcas was startled for a moment and asked: "In your impression, what kind of person am I?"
"Proud, impulsive, emotional, and likes to irritate others with venomous tongues." Ya Xiu said: "Even if you know that you will lose, you will definitely try your best to mediate with me until there is no hope... To be more precise, you would rather die.
Someone who won’t compromise.”
"If you're willing to compromise, you won't die at all."
The main reason why Schilling forced Varcas to death was that Varcas refused to give up raising his children. As an elf, Varcas could still go to jail. Schilling made a great contribution here. But it was Varcas who died.
Unwilling to compromise and insisting on violating the Bloodline Prohibition Law, Xilin was extremely disappointed and resolutely gave up on the son he had grown up with... or rather, his daughter.
In a sense, Schilling is actually the ultimate double standard. He is obviously taking care of Varcas, but he does not allow Varcas to take care of her children.
But it is precisely because of this cognitive contradiction that Schilling so violently forbids Varcas from repeating his mistakes - in the blood moon, 'selfishness' is the only political correctness. Everything Schilling does is hope
Valkas can become more selfish and become an advanced elf more adapted to survival in the Blood Moon society. This is his 'goodness' to Valkas.
"If Valkas fails to become 'normal', then letting her die may be the best ending"... Asher didn't know what Xilin really thought, but he felt that this might be what Xilin thought.
After all, even a powerful mayor like Fei Nanxue can't get in touch with his son. He's only a blood month older. Is there really room for a parent and child?
"Really?" Varcas said, "Is this what Varcas is?"
Ash realized something: "Varkas, you..."
The female elf sheathed her sword. She looked left and right, walked over and sat on a relatively large stone. Seeing this, Ash couldn't maintain his fighting posture, so he went over and sat down cross-legged.
