Chapter 1051: The Star-Born Clan Has No Soul
Every thread of resentment had an echo. Who did Kram hate the most? It was the one who imprisoned it in the Divine Shell, used a stick to knock on its shell from time to time, and sucked away all its anger and resentment.
When it learned that Ang was going to beat up North Crown, Kram immediately strongly requested to be allowed to take action.
"Can you, make him, not call for help?" Ang asked.
"Yes, stuff him in here, I'll make him scream until his throat breaks, and his Star-Born Father won't hear it." Kram said confidently. Following his words, one mark after another appeared inside the control room, just like those marks on the surface of the Divine Shell.
With the appearance of these marks, Ang suddenly felt his entire sense of thought become sluggish. His soul felt like it had "gotten wet," with a feeling of sluggishness, heaviness, and stickiness.
This was an unprecedented situation. Because his sense of thought was sluggish, Ang thought for a long time before figuring out what had happened. The Divine Shell marks blocked Ang's will projection, requiring a jump through Kram, so it became sluggish.
Figuring this out, Ang instantly became vigilant. The Divine Shell marks could actually block the will projection between him and his main body? If Kram didn't have a soul connection with him, this interruption just now would have been enough to make his will retreat back into the main body.
And these Divine Shell marks were used by others to seal Kram, which meant others knew how to do it too.
Ang realized that he couldn't just enter unknown enclosed spaces in the future. Otherwise, if others activated similar imprisonment marks and interrupted his will projection, he would instantly retreat back to his distant main body.
Now, because of Kram's relay, Ang only became sluggish, and his will didn't break. He just stared blankly as Kram rushed out of the Divine Shell, bringing the shell body with it to condense into a light-shadow giant, and then punched North Crown.
North Crown only had time to let out a scream, then struggled to grab around, but couldn't grab anything that could fix his body. He could only be forcibly dragged away by Kram like a little woman, and the Divine Shell closed back into a circle, with no sound coming out again.
Ang's will returned to smoothness, and the Divine Shell marks in the control room gradually disappeared. As long as a little gap was revealed, Ang's will could be unobstructed. This meant that only a completely enclosed space could possibly block Ang's will projection. As long as there was a trace of a gap, the will would not be interrupted.
Almost at the same time his will returned to smoothness, Nai Ge Li Si dragged Anthony and urgently projected onto Ang, asking anxiously: "What happened? What happened? Why did I suddenly lose the ability to feel you? Are you okay? Are you injured?"
Ang explained the situation, and Nai Ge Li Si gasped: "This kind of mark can block will projection? Then shouldn't you have retreated back to your main body? Why are you still here? Can you project over at any time?"
Ang's will projection had become a sword hanging over everyone's heads. Ang was the core of all of them. Without Ang, even Anthony and Nai Ge Li Si would retreat to the Chaos Plane.
Only the Monarch, Silver Coin, and Du Luo Ken—the Monarch's situation was special, so just talking about the other two—one projected through a Divine Spark, and the other reincarnated through a Soul Casket, could they stay here.
A core figure of great importance actually existed in such an unreliable way as will projection. If the will projection was interrupted, or if this body was destroyed, the entire team would scatter.
What was more troublesome was that Ang couldn't guarantee the reproduction of the will projection. That is to say, if the consciousness projection was interrupted and retreated to the Chaos Plane, he might not be able to project over again.
The reason was unknown, the principle was unclear. He had also projected over in a muddle last time, purely because he heard the Monarch shouting for help.
If it couldn't be reproduced, then he would have to see if he could fly for twenty years like a little ghost, letting his main body come here. There were many uncertain problems in this.
If it couldn't be reproduced, then during the time he waited to descend to this void again, the entire team would lose him as their strongest combat power and could only rely on Silver Coin and Du Luo Ken to maintain it. The risk was too great.
This situation and risk also led to two consequences: one was that they could be reckless, as it was just a projection, and being beaten up wouldn't affect the main body. The second was to be careful and cautious, for fear of accidentally interrupting the projection.
This unstable state constantly affected Nai Ge Li Si's mood, like holding a magic egg that didn't know when it would explode, having to worry about it all day.
Now Ang had actually interrupted the projection, but hadn't retreated to the main body. Had Ang already found a way to reproduce the will projection?
Ang shook his head and pointed to Kram.
Anthony immediately thought of the key point: "Kram can relay the Master's will, but others can't. It seems the Master cannot enter some closed, unfamiliar environments at will in the future to prevent encountering similar imprisonment."
Ang nodded; he thought so too.
Boom! The Divine Shell suddenly shook, and the entire magic array trembled gently for a while.
Ang looked toward the Divine Shell, and Nai Ge Li Si asked in surprise: "What happened?"
The Divine Shell cracked, and Kram carefully probed its will, saying somewhat embarrassedly: "I... I accidentally beat him to death."
"Who? Beat who to death? North Crown? North Crown! You beat him to death! Ku Ba Da, we haven't asked anything yet. Why did you beat him to death!?" Nai Ge Li Si scolded.
Kram said annoyedly: "He scolded me. He said I was such an inferior individual, did I know who he was? He was a Star-Born Clan member, the master of the void, and told me to let him go obediently, otherwise his Star-Born Lord would descend and imprison me for eternity."
"I have already been imprisoned for so long, and he still uses this to threaten me. I got angry and beat him to death."
Nai Ge Li Si and Anthony were speechless: "He really said that? He threatened you in this situation?"
"Really, he also asked me if the soul-trembling stick tasted good. It was him who used the stick to knock on me," Kram said.
A living, brainless noble descendant, he deserved to be beaten to death. Anthony asked helplessly: "Then what is left of him? What about soul fragments? Bring them over for soul searching."
"Ah? The Star-Born Clan has no soul. He only has this left." Kram floated over, condensed into a light-shadow giant wrapped in the Divine Shell, stretched out his palm, and held a white crystal in his palm.
Ang picked up the crystal, but everyone's hearts had already been shocked by Kram's words. The Star-Born Clan has no soul? Are there creatures without souls in this world?
Nai Ge Li Si asked repeatedly: "How do you know the Star-Born Clan has no soul? Why don't they have a soul? What is this crystal?" ===== CHAPTER 1052 =====
