Chapter 391: Chapter 310: Parasitic Here
This was the first ti in decades that Ajing left the Reverse World.
It ant she had abandoned the identity of "Mirror Spirit" and stood before Jiuyue for the first ti as a witch.
The first thing she did after leaving the Mirror World was to borrow a set of clothes from Jiuyue, and with embarrassnt, she rushed into the restroom. About ten minutes later, she finally erged with her composure regained.
She looked at the two people sitting separately at the desk and on the bed, cleared her throat, and said, "Where was I just now in my talk?"
"You were saying how surprisingly curvy you are."
Jiuyue kindly reminded her.
"Not that, I an the earlier topic!"
Ajing wished she could grab a stick and knock it on the little fox demon’s head.
They say you beco similar to those you associate with, and now she seriously suspected that Duan Mingyuan had beco like this because he was unwittingly influenced by Jiuyue. When she first t Mingyuan, wasn’t he a very serious and reliable person?
He is still reliable, but his seriousness has plumted.
"We were discussing how to evade the Witch Council’s surveillance. You must use the Reverse World as a springboard—"she coughed—
Jiuyue continued to answer, but halfway through, suddenly stopped and, mimicking Ajing’s earlier actions, clutched her chest tightly.
"There’s no need to mimic what happened after that."
Ajing’s anger rose by another 6 percentage points. "I wanted to tell you that to escape the view of the Witch Council, you must make use of the Reverse World as a springboard. Even within the Witch Council, very few wizards can master the spells of the Reverse World. By using this thod, you can reach any part of the Eco-Ship without being detected by any wizard’s surveillance," she explained.
This was a colossal spaceship, its area comparable to a small town on Blue Star.
Originally, she intended to hurry and guide the two in using the mirror surfaces to travel through the Reverse World, but now, she didn’t have to rush.
The Witch Ancestor must have thought she was already dead.
"Instead of that, I’ll give you ten minutes to explain why you ca to Blue Star, why you approached !"
Jiuyue was not easily fooled, and as a fox demon with the Fox Demon bloodline, she naturally inherited the grudge-holding tendency of her lineage.
Although theoretically, Ajing had just died once and almost lost her soul, the deception she had endured for so many years was not sothing to be easily forgotten.
Seeing Jiuyue’s indignant expression, Ajing sighed helplessly.
However, this day was inevitable, and she had long been prepared for it.
"That’s because there’s more than one Void Demon."
"Don’t try to shift all the bla onto the Void Demon!"
Jiuyue was relentless. She had gotten used to these tricks lately. It was like the Shan Clan People who, no matter what problem they encountered, even if their spaceship encountered an accident during travel, managed to bla everything on Mr. Mingyuan.
The crux of the matter was that the Void Demon couldn’t speak and couldn’t confront Ajing, which ant there was no way to verify the claims.
"It’s true,"
Ajing explained, "In the Witch Council, we are accustod to regarding the Symbiote attached to the Witch Ancestor as the first born Void Demon. The Symbiote told the Witch Ancestor it had many brothers and sisters scattered across the universe, but the vast majority perished during the birth process."
"This is because ordinary humans cannot resist the erosion of the Void Demon."
Duan Mingyuan revealed the theory he had heard in recent days. The theory from the "Black Mud" school researchers indirectly confird what Ajing had said, providing a considerable degree of credibility.
Combining the views of the "Black Mud" school, Duan Mingyuan could now broadly categorize these Void Demons into two types, those who successfully parasitize beco Symbiotes, while failures turned into the "Black Mud" that caused spacecraft accidents.
Seeing Duan Mingyuan speaking, Jiuyue fell silent, no longer retorting.
"Since you already understand this, it makes explaining a lot easier."
Ajing said, "The growth cycle of a Symbiote is very lengthy, its initial strength is not great either, and it needs to lie dormant on its host for a substantial period, drawing nutrients through the host’s body and understanding the culture and knowledge known to the host. In return, it will gradually transform the host’s body, bestowing it with a life that is almost infinite."
At this point, Ajing’s eyes dimd sowhat.
This reminded her of the ti when she had founded the Witch Council together with others.
Although they were desperately hunted down during the witch hunts like rats across the street, those days were the most fulfilling and happiest ones in her mory.
Back then, the Witch Ancestor wasn’t a person blinded by hatred.
"The Witch Ancestor was the first Symbiote. After obtaining eternal life, she didn’t keep this secret to herself but shared this gift equally with every brother and sister in the Witch Council."
This made Ajing feel sowhat ashad.
The reason she could still stand before Jiuyue and Duan Mingyuan at this mont was that she had enjoyed the gift from the Witch Ancestor.
Otherwise, the lifespan of witches would be the sa as that of ordinary humans; they too would succumb to the ravages of ti. Even the most powerful wizards, in the end, could not escape birth, aging, sickness, and death.
"After completing the first stage, the state of the Symbiote will stabilize, and its behavior begins to beco proactive. Sotis it will communicate its desired goals to the host... However, this is a polite way of putting it. I cannot be certain whether it will change or even hollow out the host’s thoughts during the parasitism, making the host completely into its vessel."
"With enough ti as a asure, the current Witch Ancestor has changed a lot compared to the past, her emotions gradually fading while her yearning for revenge becos stronger. Twenty years ago, the Symbiote conveyed a ssage to the Witch Ancestor, after it entered the maturation period, it gradually could sense the presence of other brothers and sisters, and one of the Symbiote’s locations originated from Blue Star," she added, looking at Duan Mingyuan.
This suddenly made Duan Mingyuan feel very uneasy.
Up to now, three different groups of people had targeted him, suspecting him to be "Black Mud" or one of the mbers of the Void Demons.
He took the initiative and said, "Your Witch Ancestor sent you to find the whereabouts of another Symbiote, but I have never heard another voice in my mind, nor have any Void Demons issued orders to . This does not match your definition of a Symbiote."
"I’m not doubting you."
"Oh?"
"Because on a later day, the signal source suddenly disappeared. That happened shortly after I arrived at Blue Star on the flagship of the Departnt of Life Sciences, and at that ti, the Witch Council just narrowed its search to Yunlong City."
Two views were ford within the Witch Council regarding this.
One was that the Symbiote, foreseeing the danger, had disguised itself.
The other was the belief that the Symbiote had been eliminated since the Royal Hunting Court had not been destroyed at that ti, and hunters who hunted evil spirits were a common sight.
Symbiotes are not powerful in their early stages; if they encountered a much stronger opponent than the host, they too would die.
"Therefore, the command from the Witch Ancestor was for
to infiltrate the Royal Hunting Court to inquire about news related to the Symbiote, and it was at this ti that I t you, Jiuyue."
