Chapter 1758 Hayley's Breakdown
"At the alchemy exchange meeting ten years ago, if you hadn't made a strong request to get a sacrifice from Sterling, how could I have traded away the magic materials that I have treasured for hundreds of years? You, damn it!"
"It is because of your decision that my sister was forced to join the execution meeting. After being executed on the front line again and again, she can only use the devil flower and demon blood stone to avoid going crazy. Do you know?! It's all your fault have to!"
"You knew Bogura was there and you still asked me to go to that intersection. It was because of you that my most beloved demon doll Elsa was snatched away by Bogura! You still said it was just a demon! But that demon's blond hair The blue eyes were from my beloved who died young!”
"You are the cause of everything!"
"It's all because of you! Because of you!"
"Because of you" kept echoing in Hailey's ears. If it was someone else who said it, these figures were all her colleagues, senior wizards in the Deep Alchemy Society.
And everything really happened. Because of this, Haili was even more shocked and angry!
Why do these illusions know these things? Also, why do they remember these things so clearly and did not protest when they happened? Is this their true complaint against themselves?
The emotions that she had suppressed suddenly opened up again in this series of bombardments that were like a curse.
When Haili was confused and at a loss, these dark figures suddenly stopped talking, their scarlet eyes bent into crescent shapes, with a strange "scheme succeeding"; the corners of their mouths also kept rising and cracking, Until one-third of the entire head was filled with that bloody mouth.
The next second, these figures began to deform and elongate, as if they were being...sucked away by something.
The source of absorbing them is Hailey's eyebrows.
These figures turned into a strange long black belt, which kept pouring into Hailey's eyebrows. As the black shadow entered Hailey's eyebrows, the previous noise sounded again. Her ears were filled with whispers, all kinds of curses, curses, and insinuations. The whispers almost drove Haili crazy.
And as Hailey's heart was broken, the dignity, confidence, and vision she had built up through the appearance of strength for a long time seemed to have turned into a crumbling mirage, getting farther and farther away from her, until it disappeared without a trace. Without a trace.
Only then did Hailey understand. These were not illusions at all, but traps to pry open her defenses, and emotional taunts full of vicious curses.
Hailey bowed her body, her whole body trembling.
She was already flustered, and the only way was to chant the name of the Lord of Profundity. It seems that I want to draw strength from faith.
After all, Haili was a believer favored by the Lord of the Deep. Her call was answered by the Lord of the Deep, but in the face of Hailey's self-confidence that was on the verge of collapse, the Lord of the Deep just sighed.
Then he said lightly: "If you can't get the sacrifice this time, you can replace it with the previous one."
After finishing speaking, the Lord of the Deep never responded to Haili.
After hearing the answer given by the Lord of the Deep, Hailey collapsed instantly.
If the response of the Lord of the Deep is to tell Hailey to continue insisting and must capture Toby, she may be able to persist longer without losing her defense. But the Lord of Profundity said... forget it?
never mind? This meant that all the actions Hailey had taken before were in vain.
The people who died, the injustice she suffered, and her persistence...are all irrelevant? How could this keep Hailey from collapsing.
Perhaps, what the Lord of the Profound said was just that he didn't want Haili to fail here, but Haili's thinking and emotions had already fallen into a stubborn dead end. She was like a frog that fell into the bottom of a well. All she could see was a circle of sky at the top of the well. She didn't know that the Lord of the Deep's rare compassion and kindness was in another sky that could not be seen at the bottom of the well.
Hailey raised her head and screamed sadly, unwillingly and desperately.
The sound penetrated the strange world shrouded in red light, and even reached the ears of Angel and others in the distance.
Greya had a look of surprise on her face: "What did Toby do? Why is Hailey screaming in such pain?"
Grea couldn't help turning her head to look at Angel, wanting to hear his opinion. However, Angel was whispering to Sanders at this time. If he listened carefully, he seemed to be discussing the composition of the red light world.
"It does have illusion-like properties, but there is no illusion node." Angel asked softly.
"You should know that illusion nodes are the medium used by wizards to arrange illusions. Not every illusion must be supported by illusion nodes." Sanders said lightly.
Angel also understood that illusions such as light and shadow illusions, omens, and the extension of various abilities would create illusions. For example, when Greya makes delicious food, she will also have illusions. This is the result of the extension of her abilities.
"The sarcoma-shaped crown should have replaced the illusion node and become the medium for releasing illusions." Angel said: "But, what is the meaning of this illusion?"
Angel didn't think this illusion was meaningless. The most eye-catching thing about Toby's snake-bird incarnation was its huge body, and then the sarcoma crown on its triangular head.
Such a conspicuous existence must have an indexical significance according to the general body structure of monsters.
In other words, in Angel's view, the illusion created by this sarcoma crown must be one of the mainstream abilities of the snake bird. In this case, there will be no pointless situations.
It's just that Angel has been observing for a long time, and he doesn't feel that the illusion has any real meaning.
The only thing that made him slightly confused was: "It seems to be a little less aggressive than the ubiquitous illusion; but it is not like a peaceful illusion, and there is a little more than it."
What exactly is this extra thing? Angel felt very familiar, it seemed like a...
"Is the manipulation of emotions integrated into the illusion?" Angel said softly. He could integrate emotions into the illusion, so it felt familiar. It's just that in the red light world, the control over emotions seems to be better, because these emotions actually made Angel feel confused.
Emotions, unknown. Unlike Toby's own emotions, it seemed to focus on other people's emotions.
Because of the emotions Angel has observed, the thresholds are all different. This is not like the emotion that a person can express in a short period of time.
Angel turned his gaze to the side, wanting to hear what Sanders had to say.
Sanders looked at the illusion in the distance, his narrowed eyes shining with the same divine light research as Angel.
After a long time, Sanders said: "The illusion itself is not brilliant, but the meaning contained in it is very interesting... It is a very special illusion. If it insists on staying away from the known types of illusions, it may be related to mental illusions. Inextricably linked. However, there are still differences, because the essence of the illusion is negative emotions, but these negative emotions come from different people."
Angel just guessed, but Sanders directly gave a conclusion.
