What is death?

The body loses its vitality, the heart stops beating, the brain doesn't work, and the soul is completely annihilated... These are all signs of death. As long as there is one, 90% of the time, the countdown will be announced.

But are these absolute?

Not necessarily. The Lich's body is not active. The tree man has no heart at all. The headless knight's head is just an ornament. When he is happy, there may be a pumpkin on it. Some beings can live comfortably and even be extremely powerful even without the soul.

However, in this cruel and dark multiverse, death is inevitable for any existence. Even the extraordinary need to cross the high threshold to get rid of its pursuit.

"Prest, I have to say one thing."

In the underground aseptic laboratory at the headquarters of lindongbao college, a man with a low voice said calmly to his disciples kneeling in front of him: "all the members of the 'looker' elf tribe have suffered from chaos erosion, and their souls have been attacked by pestilence evil spirits. Now the situation is very bad. They are now receiving treatment in the hometown of spirits far south, There's no way to predict the recovery time. "

"Fortunately, before the destruction, the mother tree used its last strength to protect their soul and body. Although they suffered heavy losses, their lives were carefree, or at least their lives could be guaranteed."

In this way, the man found that his disciple's body trembled.

"But... Sur, she's not linked to the tree."

"In this case, it should be dead."

Hearing the speech, the gray haired youth clenched his teeth, while the man narrowed his eyes, looked at his disciples, and then whispered, "prest, why are you so sad?"

He said with a smile: "you are extraordinary, do you really think that death is the end?"

"Death is just the beginning."

On March 7, 840, at 7 a.m., on the second floor of the Lord's mansion, inner city, Moldavia.

Human beings like to use the word unique to describe precious and rare things, like to use everywhere to describe the common and flooding of a thing.

In the world of mirov, ordinary human beings without extraordinary power are common and rampant. Of the ten, there are almost eight or nine ordinary people who have no extraordinary power, and the remaining one may not be a serious professional, maybe just one or two magic tricks or fighting tricks.

On the other hand, there is no doubt that the extraordinary is rare. In the high magic world of mikelov, everyone may know the existence of magic, but it is absolutely rare to be able to cross the barrier of the middle level of the black iron and become a serious professional class of the upper level of the black iron, just like everyone knows how to lose weight, But only a few people can lose weight successfully.

However, although it is true that there is a clear distinction between "ordinary human" and "extraordinary".

But there are no "ordinary people" in this world.

He may have been a weapon, but now he has completely become a housekeeper. Lin aclor sits in front of his desk in his room, seriously browsing the forum in the spiritual terminal, and then starts this year because of the number of extraordinary people, It is gradually increasing.

More than ten years ago, before the evil tide came, the free energy density of the whole world was not large. The inheritance of the extraordinary was generally spread in the mode of small colleges and apprentices. Therefore, the number of the extraordinary was very rare. Even considering the most popular military practice methods and the simple witchcraft of the folk casters, the number of the extraordinary was also very rare.

But now, with the advent of the magic tide, a large extraordinary college has recently opened all over the world, and the number of extraordinary people is increasing at an obvious speed.

From Ivan's own point of view, things are even more obvious - since he and his sister Amira graduated from lindongburg college, moved out from his grandfather Edward and bought a house in the city center, every day he can hear the news that the families around him have children or relatives entering lindongburg, Some parents even signed up for the Lord's mansion's "advanced practice training class" for adults, and learned one or two magic or fighting skills.

In just half a year, the number of extraordinary people, which used to be one percent or one tenth, has expanded rapidly, even to the point that there are three or four extraordinary people in ten people.

Although the vast majority of the new professionals are just the most superficial and the lowest extraordinary ones, even so, they can use magic instruments, activate Rune arrays, and exert great power through magic Guides... Because of this, with the increase of the number of extraordinary ones, there are more and more special decrees for extraordinary ones.After shoveling the snow, Ivan went back to the house, put the shovel behind the door, and went to the kitchen to have breakfast. When he sat next to a girl with the same blonde hair as him, Ivan asked casually, "what's the matter with our dragon?"

"I'm still sleeping. It's going to take me a few days to wake up."

Amira spread jam on Ivan's bread and replied carelessly, "anyway, brother, do you think we can really go to the abyss?"

"Why not?"

Ivan poured a glass of milk for Amira. Hearing the words, he shook his head in doubt: "do you remember what the teacher said when he came to our disciples a few days ago?"

"The world of mikelov has come to a critical moment. In the past, we were imprisoned in a dark and old cage, but now, we have to break free from the shackles of decay and rust and leave the cage - it is obvious that teachers have made great discoveries in their adventure, and resources are moving towards the" new world "as teachers call it."

Speaking of this, Ivan took a mouthful of jam coated bread and said vaguely, "I know, you must be thinking, since resources are beginning to shift to the new world, why do we go to the abyss? It's very simple, my sister, because the outside world will be peaceful... The world of mirov is close to the abyss, so before we move forward to the new world, we must first solve the threat next to us. "

As he said that, he swallowed the food in his mouth. He looked at his sister and said with a smile, "those people in the external exploration department like to take risks. What we people who don't like to walk around need to do is to make their hometown more stable when they take risks. What's more, even if there is no such reason, don't we also want to find opportunities to go to the abyss? "

This is a matter of course. Brother and sister, who vowed to fight against wuselong all their lives, looked at each other and laughed. Then they lowered their heads and ate breakfast quietly.

Where the five color dragons are, they are.

They're going to the abyss, of course.

"Of course we're going to the abyss!"

Liza, the Dragon Girl, announced her plan in her home: "it's time to send Mr. syndicate back to his hometown!"

Recently, the Dragon Girl's words have become more direct and direct, without any euphemism, and she doesn't know who she learned from.

"Zizi."( Support)

In the hall, a silver alarm clock on the desk rings twice, giving out a voice of support. The first batch of people turn the stopwatch dutifully and continue: "Zizi Zizi?"( When do we start?)

On the other side, a sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper make complaints about what Lisa looks like, but he is a little taller. The man who is a little man blinks.

"Why, Mr. syndicate, don't you want to go back?"

The Dragon girl who announced the news originally thought that Yan Mo would be very happy, but she didn't expect that the other party had such an attitude. She immediately bowed her head in disappointment and couldn't see her face clearly.

"No, Lisa, you see, I'm not a Yanmo now!" Seeing Lisa's sad appearance, syndicate immediately became nervous. He quickly put down the newspaper, got up and went to Lisa's side, held each other's hand and wanted to explain: "after my life form changed, I'm no longer a devil, not to mention the abyss... Eh, you didn't cry?"

"Of course not." Taking advantage of the situation, she grabbed the hand of Cynthia. Lisa raised her head. The sun was shining on her face. She shrugged. Then she stood on tiptoe and whispered in the ear of Yanmo: "I just want to see where you used to live... Why, don't you?"

"Also... Can't... Say..."

Syndicate really wants to say "no". After all, the abyss is really not a good place. To be honest, her life in the abyss is just ordinary fighting, killing, eating and drinking, and there is no interesting place. Life in the world of mirov is so comfortable and pleasant, and people talk well, He loves being here and doesn't want to go back.

But in the end, he compromised: "well, if Lisa really wants to go... Let's go. My experience may be useful."

"Mr. syndicate is the best!"

At the same time, Lisa and others are next door.

It is also a small house in the residential area of Nancheng District, but the atmosphere is completely opposite to the happy next door.

The cold wind in winter blows back, and the frost gradually spreads on the inside of the glass. Next to the fire, on the sofa in the hall, a little girl with gray hair bites her lower lip and stares at the two pots of flowers in different shapes.

A potted flower is like a dandelion. It has a hairy body, but it's golden yellow. It's hard to get rid of the fluff. This plant, called 'dawn Dandelion', is a special fire medicine. Its root system has a very good effect of nourishing the body and strengthening the body. But the most important thing is that it has a good handle, feels comfortable and warm, and is very suitable for playing in winter.The other pot of flowers is more magical. It has seven translucent geometric petals like ice crystals. Each petal has a different magic power. The six elements and ether in the atmosphere are gradually condensed around it, which makes the magic concentration in the house more intense.

Britney Spears looked at the two pots of flowers sent by Priestley with some worry in her heart.

"My brother hasn't laughed for a long time..."

Britney Spears has rarely seen her brother smile since prest returned from the far away Star River.

Two pots of flowers, dawn dandelion, were originally intended to be given to him by his brother. He hid them in the attic on the roof and thought he didn't find them. As a result, she didn't come back for such a long time and had to water them by herself... Britney Spears thought she would be angry with her brother who didn't keep his promise, but at last, when she saw Prester's tired appearance, Britney Spears found that she couldn't say anything to blame. She could only hold the waist of her only relative and thank the seven gods for letting him go home safely.

Another pot of flowers is called "seven colors and seven colors". According to my brother, it's a gift from the legendary nature tutor of the elves. It's a rare high-level potion. Its fragrance can effectively enhance the speed of Druids' perception of natural forces.

But even though he received such a precious gift and even received a public commendation from the Lord, his brother still didn't smile and looked worried.

"You look sad."

Britney spears at that time very directly asked: "brother, why?"

"I'm too weak because of your brother."

Prest also gave a very straightforward answer. He sighed: "all anger and sadness come from your own weakness. Britney, you should practice well, so that you won't be as ugly as your brother in the future."

Brother Mingming has done a good job. So the grey girl thought. But certainly not enough, at least not enough.

Greedy is not a bad thing, desire is the driving force, just like myself, if the school does not send little red flowers, do not reward candy, who will work so hard to read.

But sometimes, you can ask the teacher if you don't know.

Even primary school students know how to do it!

"If there is any problem you can't solve, why don't you ask the Lord?"

This is what little Britney Spears said to prest not long ago: "Lord is your teacher after all... Lord is so powerful, brother, you can't solve the problem, Lord can certainly solve it, at least, can tell you the solution."

Then, brother really went to the Lord.

Up to now, they haven't come back.

"Alas, my brother is so sad every day that I can't even eat well."

Think of here, Britney rolled morning dandelion, feel a little more comfortable: "if this is not solved... Then I'll lend him dandelion roll it."

But just as Britney Spears was thinking that it would be better to lend the dandelion to prest for a few days, she suddenly heard the familiar footsteps outside the door, and the voice of her brother talking to someone - and! Although the tone sounds very calm, Britney Spears can hear that her brother is no longer as negative as before!

"... this is my home... Your father, they still have body. Now they are in the far south for treatment. Next time I have a chance, I'll take you to see them..."

"Prest! The buildings here are so high - amazing! It's beautiful! Do you live in such a place? "

I can still hear the voice of a strange girl.

"Britney, I'm back!"

Click, the door opens.

Gray haired young man, holding a green hair and golden eyes, appears to be very curious and enthusiastic spirit into the room.

However, it can be vaguely seen that the ELF's body is incomplete, and the hand holding priestly is translucent. There is a huge, nihilistic wound behind her, and her body is also very illusory. In the fierce wind outside, it even seems a little erratic, like a mirage, until she enters the house.

There is no doubt that this is an undead, with self will.

And the undead saw a trot all the way, a curious look at their gray haired little girl, she immediately showed a big smile, and then squatted down, very seriously said hello: "Hello, you are Prester's sister Britney, right? My name is sur

"Don't be afraid. Although I'm dead, I won't harm people."It's a very cruel world.

War, destruction, natural disaster, chaos... Death is like a shadow, like gangrene attached to bones.

It's also a very gentle world.

Because as long as it's strong enough.

Even death can cross
