Chapter 1211 The soul explodes, the mothership arrives
It has been more than ten years since Xia Duo traveled to this magical world, including the world of projection planes, but the portable space is still very mysterious to him.
It exists in consciousness in a very bizarre state, and Chateau still cannot understand the way it exists.
The main reason why Xia Duo chose the field of planes as his main research direction was to fully study and utilize this portable space.
Nowadays, there seems to be another change in the portable space in the star realm, which makes Xia Duo extremely excited. The change means there is an additional research direction.
Of course, at this moment, he is still reluctant to summon it. Who knows whether he can take it back after summoning it.
If you can't get it back, wouldn't it be a huge loss?
Xia Duo hesitated again and again, but in the end he still did not summon the portable space here. Anyway, the star realm can come at any time. It will not be too late to come again when he knows more about the portable space.
Then with a thought from Xia Duo, the portable space was immediately separated from the star realm, and the hunter's charred corpse instantly fell into the portable space.
Just when Xia Duo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thought that nothing unexpected would happen, something suddenly changed inside the portable space.
An invisible and mysterious existence suddenly flew out of the scorched corpse, exploding a miniature plane in the portable space, but it was annihilated and disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, the portable space has also suddenly expanded.
Xia Duo made a rough estimate and found that this time it was expanded by about 10 cubic meters. Of course, his current portable space already has a full 1,000 cubic meters. This expansion does not seem to be obvious and is not of much use.
But this scene reminded him of his previous experience in using the ancient Saluk shaman statue in his territory to expand his portable space!
Most of the more than 1,000 cubic meters of space that he carries with him now are expanded through the Saruk Wuhu statue, and a small amount is expanded through arcane crystals.
After all, Xia Duo is far from having the luxury to use a large amount of arcane crystals to expand his portable space.
But what are the similarities between this charred corpse and the statue of Saluk witch and snake?
The moment this question came up, Xia Duo had an answer in his mind!
In fact, when he first inspected the Saluk witch-cat statue, he suspected that the statue might be an ancient time stowaway, preserving itself through petrification and waiting for future resurrection.
It's a pity that the petrification time is too long, so even a senior arcanist like Xia Duo can't remove the petrification for them.
But this also means that their souls are likely to still exist in the statues, but in a special state.
At this moment, the charred corpse of the hunter that Xia Duo collected was in the star realm, so time could not function well, which was similar to the stagnation of the passage of time.
When Sha Duo first arrived in the Star Boundary, his mental state continued to decline because he tried to cast spells in the Star Boundary. If he was placed on the main plane, he could recover by pausing spell casting and taking a short rest.
But in the star realm, once the state falls, it cannot be restored naturally through time. It can only be restored through changes, such as magic, sleep, etc.
Xia Duo speculated that this charred corpse was most likely not dead, but in an extremely deteriorating state. To use a game metaphor, the last 0 blood bar was locked by the star realm.
If someone saves you, it is possible to save him. (This is for sure, even if you are really dead, you can be resurrected~)
In the portable space, there is no special environment like the star realm. The last 0 points of blood cannot be locked, and naturally the person cannot die anymore.
Then the similarity between it and the Saruk witch and snake statue is very obvious——
They are all dead things carrying souls!
The portable space can absorb the soul and expand the space!
Although Xia Duo has no absolute evidence for this, it is the most likely speculation he can make at the moment!
As for the subsequent verification, it is also very simple. Niya has the [Soul Capturing Gem] in her hand. As long as the soul confining spell is analyzed, the souls can be collected for experiments.
However, the analysis and cracking of magic items are almost always at the expense of damaging the original items. Sha Duo is not sure whether it is worth it.
In addition, consider the taboo of collecting souls.
Although this is not as absolutely prohibited as creating a large number of dead creatures, it is still quite taboo. After all, the gods have guaranteed the afterlife.
In particular, the Lord of Death does not have any special reference at all. He only says that all things must return to the underworld after death. This is his authority. If you accidentally offend him, you will really be asking for your own death.
This is not quite the same as resurrection. After all, no matter how you resurrect, you will inevitably die. It barely enriches the connotation of death.
But when collecting souls, you can only go in and out. Who wants to have their authority constantly challenged?
It's like, if a foreign lord comes to Daxia to recruit people, let alone whether he can recruit people, the behavior itself is very difficult for Xia Duo to accept.
If you push yourself against God and interfere with the movement of death, there is no guarantee that you will not be punished by God.
In fact, Xia Duo is a little worried now, but so far, he has not received any questions from the death priests, so maybe it's not that serious.
If the matter is to be settled after death, then it would be better not to die as much as possible, or if you find someone to support you before you die, you may be able to live in peace.
But no matter what, Xia Duo decided to find a senior death priest to consult on the secrets here, lest he be caught by the God of Death and thrown into a frying pan as soon as the Resurrection Department was built in the future!
…
After putting away the hunter's scorched corpse, Xia Duo also found the lost sword. The sword was silver in color, and it was the best camouflage color in the endless silver void.
However, it seems that these hunters do not rely on sneak attacks, but are very aggressive in attacking and killing them head-on. The camouflage color is also the same.
Thinking of a frontal battle, Xia Duo immediately searched the surrounding areas, but found nothing strange. The reinforcements he had speculated about from the hunters before seemed to be completely non-existent.
According to his agreement with Thorne and Cliff, if the situation is solved here, he still needs to go to the other side to support or rendezvous.
Following the traces of where he came from, Xia Duo set off again. Mental resistance similar to wind resistance began to pile up in front of him, constantly hindering his continued acceleration.
However, just when he was halfway through the journey and could almost sense the spiritual storm in the distance, a stronger wave suddenly emerged behind him.
This wave was so huge, it was much bigger than Thorne's previous movement in creating the plane.
If the plane created by Thorne is an ordinary submarine in the "ocean" of the star world, then the intensity of the wave behind Sha Duo at this moment is like the huge waves caused by a large aircraft carrier rising from the bottom of the water.
