Chapter 1146
The silver-black three-layer jewelry box inlaid with various gemstones had just been taken out and placed on the coffee table when Franca suddenly felt a chill, feeling that the surrounding environment had undergone a strange change.
After becoming a "Calamity Witch," her spiritual intuition became stronger.
The head on Lu Mian's left shoulder turned, and Alista Tudor's face faced forward, looking at the "Box of the Old Days."
The exquisite jewelry box suddenly made a creaking sound, as if the materials composing it were already overwhelmed under invisible pressure and were about to shatter.
All the abnormalities Franca felt disappeared.
"'Box of the Old Days'?" She asked Lu Mian curiously.
Although she had not participated in the gathering of the Great Arcana cards and the distribution of Grade "0" Sealed Artifacts, she had been warned in advance that if a chaotic battle occurred, she needed to stay away from certain things, and the "Box of the Old Days" was one of them.
Lu Mian nodded, extended his right hand, pressed it onto the top of the "Box of the Old Days," and flicked it gently, saying:
"I feel it has a connection with Ludwig, so I specifically borrowed it for a period of time."
"Connection" is a word he learned in the dream city. However, this was not too rare in the Northern and Southern Continents before they became ruins. On one hand, members of the "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society" would unconsciously spread some new vocabulary. On the other hand, Lu Mian believed that the "guests" from Penglai were definitely not just Harrison. They were each responsible for different things, but in the end, they didn't produce any effect.
A connection with Ludwig? Franca subconsciously tilted her head and looked at Ludwig, who was wearing a child's formal suit.
Ludwig was biting that piece of steak, staring blankly at the "Box of the Old Days," as if he had fallen into a dream.
Lu Mian's right hand slid down to the third layer of the silver-black jewelry box, smiling and asking Ludwig:
"Can you sense what is hidden inside?"
Ludwig extended his palm like a sleepwalker and pressed it onto the other side of the third layer of the "Box of the Old Days."
Almost simultaneously, a strange chewing, swallowing, and digesting sound rang in Franca's ears, as if something was gnawing on her flesh and bones inside her body.
That came from the depths of the third layer of the "Box of the Old Days," and also echoed from the bottom of her heart.
"It is, it is..." The steak in Ludwig's mouth dropped to the ground with a plop.
The little boy's face was like a bedsheet draped over him, with "tents" being pushed up one after another by "hands and feet."
He said, both longing, worshipping, and fearful, trembling:
"It is, it is the power of 'Primordial Hunger'!"
"Primordial Hunger"... one of the "Outer Deities"... Franca felt the surrounding environment suddenly become dark and layered, isolating a certain malicious gaze.
She looked around and realized in an instant:
She and the others had been transferred to Lu Mian's Divine Kingdom to prevent "Primordial Hunger" from affecting the stability of the protected area through the occult connections brought by the previous discussions.
The middle head of Lu Mian maintained the smile from just now and continued to ask Ludwig:
"If I open this layer, what will happen?"
Ludwig retracted his hand as if electrocuted, and answered tremblingly and stutteringly:
"It might, it might immediately swallow everything around it and eat it directly! It might also start from, start from the bottom of our subconscious and spiritual islands, eating emotions, eating memories, eating spirit and consciousness, eating flesh and blood, eating night, day, eating good, bad, kindness, evil, eating order, disaster, all the way to eating parts of the rules of this world, making it unable to maintain stability, making the barrier lose its foundation..."
"Sure enough, your pathway will start eating rules, concepts, authorities, and even symbols in the later stages." Lu Mian nodded with satisfaction at the middle head.
He looked at Ludwig with a smile that was not a smile, and asked like a witch's whisper:
"Can you eat the danger hidden in the box?"
The Cheek face turned to the front, waiting with great interest for Ludwig to answer.
Ludwig was clearly frightened and blurted out:
"How can I?"
His meaning didn't seem to be that he couldn't do this, but that he couldn't do it:
That is rebellion, that is blasphemy!
Lu Mian did not answer, looking at Ludwig with an unchanging smile.
Ludwig fell into silence, sometimes showing a cowardly look, sometimes showing obvious resistance, sometimes unable to hide his excitement, sometimes hesitant and afraid.
His expressions had never been as rich as they were now.
Franca entered the mode of watching a play, waiting for Lu Mian to incite something and Ludwig to express something.
After a few seconds, Lu Mian laughed at a speed that was neither fast nor slow:
"The core of your pathway is 'eating' and 'digesting.' Eating those things outside is not the end, and eating rules, concepts, authorities, and symbols is not either. Eating yourself, eating your father, eating the deity you worship, is your ultimate destiny, the most extreme hunger.
"This may be the meaning of Him letting you be born."
"This, isn't this too extreme?" Ludwig looked clear, as if he had received an education.
Good boy, you have a bit of humanity now... Franca nodded with satisfaction.
She felt that if she chose the "Spectator" pathway, she should also be able to play it well.
Lu Mian tilted his head and looked at the Jenna face on the head on his right shoulder, and smiled at Ludwig:
"It is indeed very extreme. I also don't hope that you will be controlled by your own divinity and your own instincts, doing such extreme things.
"So, I am just asking if you can eat the danger hidden in the box, not if you can eat 'Primordial Hunger.' Under the current circumstances, trying your best to improve yourself is the best choice."
Ludwig opened his mouth and closed it again.
His expression changed for a while, and a sound of swallowing saliva suddenly came from his throat.
Lord, you are so fragrant? Franca helped Ludwig with the lines in her heart.
After another while, Ludwig finally spoke:
"Not yet, not yet. I have to wait until I recover to my original level, and I also need the help of another Great Existence."
Lu Mian nodded gently:
"Just eating, temporarily storing it, attaching it to yourself, without digesting and absorbing it, do you also need the help of an 'Outer Deity'?"
"Need." Ludwig nodded heavily.
Lu Mian thought for a few seconds and smiled again:
"Then wait a bit longer."
Take a look, take a look/p>
He then extended one of the arms holding the "Red Priest" Uniqueness and one of the beautiful palms newly grown on the right side in front of Ludwig—under the current circumstances, although the "Red Priest" Uniqueness still retains the form of a scorched flag, it will no longer cause witnesses to lose control and go crazy, because it is a part of Lu Mian and is under control. Lu Mian can let it show the influence of divinity if he wants, and won't if he doesn't.
"Which one do you want to eat?" Lu Mian asked Ludwig for his opinion with a smile.
Ludwig was stunned for a moment:
"Can I really eat it?"
Franca blinked and finally understood what Lu Mian wanted to do:
He used the method of feeding Ludwig parts of his own body to let Ludwig obtain the Sequence 2 Beyonder characteristic he separated, thereby recovering to his original level and getting rid of the seal of the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom."
—Lu Mian currently has three extra Sequence 2 Beyonder characteristics, one "Weather Warlock" and two "Calamity Witch."
"Of course you can, I am your godfather." Lu Mian nodded with a smile.
Ludwig swallowed saliva again, looked left and right, hesitated for a few seconds and said:
"I choose that one."
He was referring to the arm on Lu Mian's left side, which had a "Weather Warlock" Beyonder characteristic from Alista Tudor's "Conqueror" Beyonder characteristic.
"Good." Lu Mian raised the corresponding arm.
Ludwig leaned over and started gnawing on that palm with a crunch.
As the deep red blood burning with flames flowed, the sound of gnawing that made one's teeth ache and heart palpitate rang out continuously.
Franca gasped, feeling that Lu Mian was a bit too extreme. Wouldn't it be better to separate the Beyonder characteristic before feeding it to Ludwig?
It's not like it couldn't be done.
She cast her gaze at the Tudor face on the head on Lu Mian's left shoulder, finding that His expression was slightly painful, instinctive pain.
That corresponding "Weather Warlock" Beyonder characteristic belongs to Alista Tudor. Is letting Ludwig gnaw on it directly a form of revenge? However, you will also be in pain yourself... Franca suddenly had a guess and sighed.
Soon, Ludwig gnawed off Lu Mian's palm, leaving only the bare iron-colored wrist bone and the burning blood that stained it red.
Ludwig retracted his body, licked the blood from the corner of his mouth with his tongue, looking like he wanted to eat more.
His skin, the skin on his body, was about to be torn open, and a behemoth was about to expand from within.
The seal of the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" could no longer be blocked.
Just at this moment, Ludwig actively controlled himself, not destroying that seal layer, maintaining the appearance of a little boy.
Lu Mian smiled and turned to Franca:
"I will separate the extra two 'Calamity Witch' Beyonder characteristics later to make my body more balanced. Hehe, the Disease Sect also needs Grade '0' Sealed Artifacts. Well, the name Disease Sect also needs to be gradually changed."
"Good, good, good!" Franca answered very quickly, as if afraid Lu Mian would "go back on his word."
Although she knew that Lu Mian was doing this more for his own future, it was a good thing that he was willing to think about the future.
Lu Mian looked at Ludwig for a few seconds and asked with a smile:
"What are your plans later?"
Ludwig was silent for a while and said:
"If I am not eaten during the apocalypse, I want to be a child first, grow up normally, get old, experience a human life completely, and then compare."
Lu Mian said "Um" and asked in a chatty way:
"You have returned to the angel level now, what is the sequence name?"
The blood and flames at his severed wrist intertwined, re-condensing into a palm.
Ludwig thought for a few seconds and said:
"In your language, it's called 'Angel of Devouring'."
