Chapter 3295: Waves and strange clouds
"Well, there is a lot to say"
Seeing Talos, Soshyan sighed softly and threw the training sword. It was caught by the mechanical arm in mid-air and fixed back to its original position. Then the two of them walked to the side of the wall and sat on the huge horizontal chair.
If there is anyone on the Randall who can let him tell everything without reservation, then it is only Talos, and even Thor is unwilling to reveal these things.
"Talos, I was indeed blinded by a power that did not belong to me. I once thought that I was not such a stupid person, but I overestimated myself. In fact, I should have had it when I got the Skull of the Skinner. I was suspicious. When I saw Trazin in the Skinned Temple, I should have thought that this was the A trap. But my journey has been so smooth. All opponents and enemies are like ants. I can trample them, ravage them, and conquer them at will. I can no longer imagine what my opponents are, even if I know them. There are problems, but I still think I can handle it.”
Soshyan bent down and held his head in his hands.
"I saw Trazin appear in the Skinned Temple, I heard your prophecy and I even had an early warning in my heart, but I still became the fool I despise most."
Talos put a hand on his shoulder.
"This is what makes you truly great, Soshiyang. In fact, when I first met you, I thought you were a fool, but I soon discovered qualities in you that most people don't have. Do you dare to face it? Self, you dare to cut open your own chest with a dagger, dig out your heart and examine its problems. You have not lost yet. If the Silent King thinks it has won, just let it be happy. Those guys who claim to be chess players will eventually prove that they are Just a bunch of bad chess pieces.”
Soshyan was amused by Talos's words and shook his head, but straightened up.
"But I did do a stupid thing. Although I didn't know what happened, when I was unconscious, I heard some words. He warned me not to use that kind of power easily again, Landugal. After a brief resurrection and being swallowed up, the balance is broken. Everything is just a matter of time before the hourglass reaches the end. I can't hear more."
Talos guessed who "he" Soshyan was talking about, and then asked:
"Then what's your situation now?"
"I"
Soshyan stretched out his hand and stared at it.
"Now I feel like Xu Cong is staring at me all the time. I feel like a valve that has become loose. I don't know if you can imagine this feeling. As long as you use more force, something may rush out of your body. .”
"That's why you came to the training room"
"Ah, I may have to get used to the days without that overwhelming power again. What I am worried about now is those who have the power to take advantage of the opportunity to provoke others, such as Fulgenream."
"Is the Silent King of the Necrontyr planning to overturn the chessboard this time? Is he trying to capture you?"
Soshyan was silent for a moment and shook his head.
"Judging from Amnak's description, it doesn't seem to be the case. I now have a guess as to why I can't feel the Skinners of the Menak Dynasty. It's because the skinning curse on them is not the same as that of the Bone Dynasty. Of course, this It's just a guess. Maybe they have the real skinning curse. I told you that I also guessed that every one of them has a skinning curse. Each Skinner is actually a small amount of Skinner fragments. This time I absorbed them all in an instant. But how could there be so many Skinners on the planet at that time? There is only one explanation, the Skinning Curse of the Menak Dynasty? Being lifted, unintentionally lifted by me, this may be its real goal.”
"Is this what you witnessed, or is it your guess?" Talos stared at Soshyan, as if trying to find something on his face.
"What do you remember? I mean after that."
Soshiyang frowned, and fragments of the last fragmentary moments emerged in his mind - he smelled the stench of decaying flesh and blood, cold fingers painfully clutched his broken body, the immortal star fell and the skinned The two change each other, and eventually the former overwhelms the latter.
He heard its taunt
The Skinning Curse was a scam from the beginning
"The skinning curse is just a hoax"
At that time, he had lost his shape and was completely broken. The person he once was became the fuel for rebirth. He couldn't even tell whether he was the person who experienced those old memories or just a mortal named Soshiyang when he was dying. The vaguest memories, recast and given the same names?
He even saw himself on the World Engine at one point. Maybe the real Soshyan was already dead at that time? Maybe he is just a pile of memories one after another, wearing a borrowed body?
"Soshyang?"
Talos whispered, snapping him out of his reverie.
His voice sounded worried, maybe his keen heart had noticed something was wrong with Soshyan very early.
Soshyan shook his head.
"I still remember some, the voice of the Xu Cong, which told me that the skinning curse was just a hoax, and then there was another voice, maybe it was Xerxes? Or maybe it was the Beguiler? Like a high bell, pulling me from the abyss Come up.”
Then he changed the subject back to the Skinner.
"Since it is a scam, then who is it being deceived? I think there are many possibilities, Menak, me, or even the Xu followers. And who set up the scam? I guess it may be the King of Silence, or it may be Lan Dugor and Menak are said to be the most loyal subordinates to the Silent King, so the possibility of deceiving Menak is the highest. Yes, the Silent King regarded Menak as the vessel of the Skinner from the beginning, and the subsequent spread of the Skinner's curse to other dynasties is likely to be caused by another force. So since it is a container, it can naturally hold it. It can be concluded that he was setting up this plan 65 million years ago.”
"So his real intention was not to lift the Curse of the Skinner."
"This is just a incidental thing. The real target is Xu Cong or Asuyan."
"But if this is the case, doesn't it mean that we are strengthening the power of the Xu followers?"
"It should be. I don't know whether it calculated so accurately or executed it step by step, but the situation is indeed not good now. Its power is too strong. It may have exceeded Xerxes' expectations. Maybe Is this the sacrifice prepared for Xerxes to be promoted to the God of the World? But he refused. Or maybe the King of Silence discovered some conspiracy and ended it. It was too complicated and confusing. I am just being fooled. ”
Soshyan rubbed his face, and then sighed:
"Maybe it's just my imagination, but my first thought is that I lifted Menak's skinning curse."
Talos stood up, walked to the freezer nearby, opened it, and took out two cans of red antbull with ice mist. He returned to Soshyan and handed him one can.
