Chapter 58 The Ritual Article's Soul
1563 Words
Mu Yunfei was awakened in violent shake. With the powerful recovery capability of Golden Bloodline, the wounds on his body were completely healed. He was fine except that his face was pale after excessive loss of blood and there were two knife marks on his clothes.
He blinked slowly and the scene before his eyes became clearer. Because he was in a trance earlier, he couldn't remember what had happened after the sacred shield of brightness showed up. He just felt that it was bright suddenly before his eyes at that time and then he fainted.
He looked around, to find that everything around was shining with faint golden light, and the vague inscription on the metallic wall looked familiar seemingly.
Mu Yunfei suddenly found that it was the inscription on the sacred shield of brightness, and he was in the shield unexpectedly.
He looked at the people next to him. Nana and Bei Linfeng closed their eyes and hadn't woken up from the coma. When he moved closer and wanted to awaken them, some people's voices suddenly came from outside.
"Elder Meng, this shield is too big, and it's really heavy..."
"Yes, Elder Meng, it can be compared with a bronze tripod!"
"Ahem... If we pack this shield well and sell it as an ancient artifact, it will surely be sold at a good price." An old man's voice could be heard. Obviously, this must be Elder Meng as the two mentioned.
"Aha, it seems that we don't need to worry about our food and clothes for the latter half of the year!"
"I will buy a small house!"
"..."
Hearing their conversation, Mu Yunfei had a shiver down his spine. Obviously, they would be sold as a historical relic at auction. On second thought, they spoke the local language in G Province whose capital was G City. What did it mean? They floated on the ocean and reached G Province. He thought that it was inconceivable.
He didn't dare to make loud sounds to alert the men outside. Then he bent over and woke up Nana and Bei Linfeng softly.
When Bei Linfeng woke up, Mu Yunfei covered his mouth without demur. The fact proved that he was right. At that moment, he stopped Bei Linfeng who was about to shout.
He shook his head at the two and gestured for them not to speak, so they looked at him with their questioning eyes at the same time without prior consultation.
At the moment, Mu Yunfei told them about the conversation among the three and his analysis in a low voice.
Hearing that they had come to G Province, they all looked shocked.
"What should we do now?" Bei Linfeng asked in a soft voice.
"That's my question to you! Why did the sacred shield of brightness become like this? You have comprehended it for so long," Mu Yunfei looked at Bei Linfeng and asked in reply.
Of course the key to solving this problem was Bei Linfeng. This was his ritual article, and perhaps only he could explain everything that had happened and lead them to deal with the current situation.
"I..." Hearing Mu Yunfei's question, Bei Linfeng had a blush on his fat face unexpectedly, and he scratched his hair, looking away, without saying anything after a long time.
"Hmm? What ability is it? Tell us now. We are partners, and you can tell us," Seeing that he remained silent, Nana asked.
"I..." Bei Linfeng stuttered and took a deep breath, as if he would say something amazing.
"I don't know, either..."
"What?" Mu Yunfei and Nana asked in surprise at the same time. The current status of the sacred shield of brightness shocked them, and they were shocked even more when Bei Linfeng said that he didn't know the ability of the shield.
Looking at Mu Yunfei's and Nana's astonished faces, Bei Linfeng lowered his head and said in embarrassment, "In fact... I didn't tell you about the ability of this sacred shield of brightness because after having felt it for two days, I didn't have other feelings except that it absorbed my Bloodline Power continuously, which means till now I don't know what its exact ability is..."
After hearing that, Mu Yunfei and Nana fell into silence. Both of them had ritual articles and knew that after a ritual article was activated, it was attached to the owner, and the ability should show up in his brain in a natural way, while Bei Linfeng...
He looked confused. Apparently, he wasn't lying.
It was weird. After a ritual article acknowledged its owner, it only absorbed his Bloodline Power crazily but didn't show its ability as a return. They heard that for the first time.
Even the experienced and knowledgeable Bei Linfeng was confused.
Looking at the thickly dotted inscription around, the three were silent.
"Only one possibility can explain the situation," After a long time, Bei Linfeng said unhurriedly in disbelief. "This sacred shield of brightness was activated further, and the ritual article's soul has been activated."
While speaking, Bei Linfeng raised his head slowly, with excitement which could hardly be concealed in his eyes. "Right. That's it. The ritual article's soul must have been activated."
"The ritual article's soul?" Mu Yunfei asked in doubt. Almost every technical term the fatty mentioned was a blind zone to him, like a black hole.
However, this time, even Nana craned her neck, with doubts on her face.
"The ritual article's soul? I just heard a little about it on the Ice Planet in the past, but I have never seen it, nor do I understand what it means. Anyway, it is mysterious and powerful," Nana murmured.
"Yes, the ritual article's soul is rare even in the whole Elemental Star Galaxy, and we can even say that it is almost inexistent. It's said that there is a ritual article with soul in our Elemental Star Headquarters, but because it is too powerful, it has never been shown to the public seemingly.
"Once the ritual article's soul is activated, it will do more than promote the strength, and it will skip and cross a limit, like a milestone," At the mention of this, Bei Linfeng got excited and hurriedly added in a deep voice, "According to the records in the ancient books in the Elemental Star Galaxy, when the ritual article's soul appears, it means that the ritual article can have its own consciousness and it is powerful yet independent. In another word, it isn't fully under the orders and control of the owner.
"But it is not absolute. Once the owner can keep a good relationship with the ritual article's soul, its strength will be more than the promotion of the two." He suddenly smiled helplessly. "Obviously, the ritual article's soul has appeared now, yet I have never contacted it. It means that I can't control this sacred shield of brightness for now."
"Do you have a way to contact this ritual article's soul now?" Mu Yunfei asked.
After hearing Bei Linfeng's description, Mu Yunfei reached a conclusion. If they wanted to go out of this sacred shield of brightness, they had to get in touch with the mysterious ritual article's soul first.
Nevertheless, the three could do nothing but look at one another speechlessly, and they couldn't figure out a practical way.
"The ritual article's soul? We have never seen it. How can we contact it? Does it have a cellphone number?" Mu Yunfei thought with unspoken criticism.
When the three looked at each other speechlessly, the shaky sacred shield of brightness suddenly stopped, and then with a bang, they fell backward under the collision.
"Hao, is it safe if you put it here? Don't lose it."
"Rest assured. I have set traps everywhere around. Nobody can take a piece of dust away from this shield," The man who was called Hao answered with confidence.
"Great. I am waiting for us to make much money together and buy a house. Aha!"
"..."
The voices went far away and disappeared gradually.
"Yunfei, what should we do now?" Nana asked in a soft voice.
Judging from the breath of the people outside, they must be common people.
Therefore, the biggest threat they faced was how to escape from this shield, not to cope with the people outside it.
Mu Yunfei glanced at Nana and then at Bei Linfeng who was puzzled as well. Afterward, he shook his head and sat down again.
He just said impassively, "I will have a try." Later, he stopped talking and closed his eyes, sitting in meditation unexpectedly.
After waking up just now, Mu Yunfei found that the restraint which confined his Dream Power in his body because one week hadn't passed seemed to have disappeared, which meant that he could use this skill again which was like a plug-in.
However, just in case, before he tried, he still needed to ask the girl in his brain. He was curious about why Dalla didn't take actions when he was in tremendous danger.
Even if Dalla predicted that his life wouldn't end so she didn't take actions purposely, why didn't Coldblooded Queen Zoria show up who had signed a contract to protect him, either?
The questions came to his mind.
Light flashed, and his figure was shaped in his brain gradually, walking to that girl in the distance.
