Chapter 783: The Next Step

Jin was relieved when the ant king was dead, but Luo's sudden philosophical question caught Jin off guard.

Is there a soul after death?

Jin suddenly remembered that on a certain forum, there were many people discussing this painful issue, and even today, posts on that topic can still be dug up from time to time.

Even though it might really be a pain in the ass question, Kim looks thoughtful.

He wasn't just putting on a show, but was seriously thinking about how to organize the language, and then answered Luo's question.

After all, when Luo asked this question, his tone and expression were too serious to be dismissed as a joke.

"Well, I probably thought of how to answer you." Jin clapped his hands and sorted out the words.

Luo looked at Jin who was eager to try, and said slowly: "Actually, I'm just asking casually, you don't have to be so serious."

"..." Jin Wenyan was silent for a while, and then said naturally: "All right, I didn't take it too seriously."

Luo nodded, then picked off the fragments from the flint and threw them on the remnant of Meluem.

Even in the torrential rain, the shards of the Flintstone still released fierce flames, devouring Meluem's body.

Jin couldn't help but glanced at Chasing Flint, then looked at the burning corpse of Meluem with regret, and said, "That has high research value."

"Well, it's a pity." Luo replied.

It's up to me to say this...

Jin Wuyu glanced at Luo's side face, and then, together with Luo, watched the flames burn in the rain.

Time goes by bit by bit, and the flames are drenched in rain without fading or extinguishing, which is a wonderful sight.

"The stone was also brought back from the Dark Continent?" Jin asked.

With fire in Luo's eyes, he replied, "Well, it's called the Flint Chaser. If you knock down a little debris, you can release a high-temperature flame for a few minutes. Do you want it?"

"It's very interesting. If you have more, give me one to play with." Jin said.

Without further ado, Luo gave Jin a flint that used up one-third of its volume.

Gold catches the flint,

Flipping through it, he asked, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

Luo replied: "No, because it is very hard, even if you hit it hard with an iron pick, it is difficult to knock off the debris."

"That's it."

Jin responded, tried it a little bit, and it was really hard, not very suitable for use in battle.

If there is that effort to waste mind power knocking down debris to attack, it is better to think about how to make good use of mind power.

Afterwards, Jin Lenovo thought of Luo's ability. Speaking of which, this thing was tailor-made for Luo.

In short, it is a very valuable item. Speaking of which, things labeled as the Dark Continent are absolutely rare.

"Thanks."

Jin put away the flint.

Luo didn't respond, just silently watching the flames.

After absorbing the grievances of Nefebit and Meruem, Luo suddenly had a doubt.

He was wondering if there would be a soul after death, and resentment is the obsession left by the living, or a way of manifestation of the soul.

If yes, then the function of the white smoke font is to collect and absorb souls? Then why only a small group of people can generate resentment.

Luo subconsciously asked the question to Jinfa, not casually, but because the topic involved the white smoke font, Luo didn't want to have a further discussion with Jin.

When absorbing resentment before, Luo actually didn't think about this issue at all, but the resentment of Nephibit and Meluem was too pure and powerful.

If it wasn't for the mental power being polished by the creatures of the Dark Continent, it might be affected by it, and even insanity is not impossible.

The most important thing is that if Luo wants to fully absorb the resentment of the two, he has to accept the obsession left behind by them.

Also because of this, Luo interspersed the word obsession in the thinking of [Is resentment the same as soul].

Resentment = soul?

Resentment = obsession?

Resentment = obsession = soul?

As he thought about it, Luo thought of the existence of Starkie and the echo of Ellie's soul.

In a sense, Starj is resurrected from the dead, but her resurrection comes from the echo of Ellie's soul.

It's just that even Ellie herself is not very sure whether the soul echo can be classified as a resurrection type of mind ability, and it may be because of this vague self that it took Starji a while to achieve [complete resurrection].

However, one of the materials used to revive Starj is only a corpse, not resentment.

That is to say, Ellie used the soul echo to revive Starj, and the whole process ended, it had nothing to do with the resentment that Starj had generated after her death, because the resentment that belonged to Starj had long been absorbed by Luo.

In this way, one can barely draw a conclusion, that is, resentment is not equal to soul, so what is the nature of resentment?

Continuing to think about it, the echo of the soul can resurrect the dead, and it is not ruled out that there will be a more powerful resurrection-type ability, but Luo has never seen it.

If so, the nature and existence of the mind ability will give Luo a sense of omnipotence.

Falling into this line of thinking, Luo thought about how he came to this world. Could it be because of some kind of ability to read, and is it possible that the white smoke font is also a product of ability to read?

Luo felt that his thoughts were a little confused, so he stopped decisively and stopped thinking about it.

"Jin, do you think those who have the ability to read will have a soul after death?" Luo asked Jin, turning his head to look at Jin.

Jin Wenyan was stunned for a moment, then stared at Luo with extremely serious eyes, did not speak, but expressed the meaning of a sentence very clearly: Can I beat you?

Seeing Jin's expression, Luo naturally changed the subject and asked, "How is Nitro?"

"On the way to transfer, I will be sent to the hospital where the association has a share. According to the doctor, the president's condition is not optimistic, but I will ask my friends for help to see if it can be cured."

"Well, that old guy...is really going all out." Luo nodded.

"Yeah." Jin sighed, thinking of Nitro's miserable state, then pointed to the still burning flames, and said, "When these fires are finished, do you want to go back to the association directly, or take over the rest of the mess? "

Back to the association is to visit Nitero.

Cleaning up the mess are those scattered division chief chimera ants.

Luo thought for a while, raised his right hand and pressed it on his chest, and said calmly, "Play chess."

His intuition told him that as long as he digested Meluam's obsession, he might get some benefits.

So he would go back to the palace directly, and use the chess skills left by Meluem to finish the game of chess for Meluem.

"Ah?" Hearing Luo's answer, Jin was a little confused.

"Play military ceremonial chess." Luo added.

Jin was even more confused.

Seeing this, Luo thought to himself to keep silent.

.........

When Luo and Jin were still in the Rocky Mountains, hundreds of spaceships under the name of the Hunter Association braved the storm and came over the capital palace.

The timing of coming here was inexplicable, and it was chosen just right. It was on the way Nitro and others moved to the city where the association was located, and before Luo and Jin returned.

And the spaceship was sent by Palliston, the purpose is the eggs in the palace meat tree garden.

It is not so much an egg as a cocoon.

Inside those cocoons are half-orcs with chimeric ants and human blood. The meaning of existence is not only Meluem's food, but also Meluem's soldiers.
