There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game Chapter 501

Chapter 501: Chapter 439: The Spirituality of Emotions Chapter 501: Chapter 439: The Spirituality of Emotions The idea that his heart could not die was sothing Xu Shuo had no intention of telling anyone.

So, as for how to use that violin, he could only rely on his own exploration.

But the soul of a living being is a very curious thing; whether it truly exists is itself a question, and up until now, Xu Shuo only understood what spiritual power was.

He even felt that the soul and spiritual power might be the sa thing.

After all, when using the identity of Cerys to sign a contract with the Traveling Poet, the thod seed like imprinting a spiritual mark, which bore a striking resemblance to the Soul Imprint of the director of the New An Bureau.

What was different was that a “contract” involved an extra layer of restraint from the rules.

However, no matter what, if the self-consciousness of Cerys was not in the subspace, then she couldn’t possibly achieve this feat.

...

Xu Shuo suddenly adopted an eager-to-learn deanor.

Although he was frustrated by the reckless behavior of this disciple and felt embarrassed by Mo Nuo’s post that was filled with hundreds of lines of trash talk, Hong Rao was still willing to fulfill her duty and clarify his doubts.

“Do you know that all things have a spirit?” Hong Rao asked with seriousness.

“Hmm?

Panpsychism?” Of course, Xu Shuo knew of it.

“By ‘all things’ here, it refers to anything and everything in the broadest sense—anything that can be seen, heard, slled, touched, felt, including the emotions of living beings,” said Hong Rao, pointing at a certain perspective within the post as she spoke.

During the heated exchange with that player, the original poster had employed this theory.

However, at that point, both parties were so heated in their argunt that they couldn’t be bothered to examine each other’s viewpoints closely, so the discussion did not continue on this topic.

Xu Shuo narrowed his eyes slightly; if even Hong Rao agreed with this viewpoint, then he seed to have so ideas forming.

At that mont, Hong Rao suddenly asked in a mysterious tone, “Your role this ti should be the Night Witch, Cerys, right?

Then, did you notice any abnormal feelings when you were playing the role?”

“Abnormal feelings?” Xu Shuo paused.

“Yes, I an emotions that could not possibly be produced by you!” Hong Rao continued, looking forward to his response.

Previously, when Xu Shuo had gone off-script, the two of them had communicated using the intra-bureau chat function and passed each other secret signals, but at that ti, Hong Rao had not yet guessed which script he was in.

It wasn’t until “The Beautiful Legend of Prague” crashed and burned that, after so reflection, Hong Rao had guessed which character he was.

Fortunately, she no longer found this kid’s habit of running off-script surprising.

But Cerys was, after all, a special character.

After pondering with a frown for a while, Xu Shuo earnestly said, “A possessive desire for Alex?”

“That’s it!” Hong Rao imdiately responded, looking at him with a sly smile.

“…” Xu Shuo.

Considering he had prepared climber, female student, and several other secondary options for the task, it was not as though he had to choose the Traveling Poet, but he ended up picking that unfortunate soul at first glance.

And that feeling, after unlocking the Character Card of Cerys, beca even stronger, as if he needed to continue betting on a critical point.

To say that nothing had influenced his decision, he himself would not believe it.

“The emotions left by Cerys are also a kind of spirituality,” Hong Rao continued with a smile.

“This is the special trait of the Night Witch; she waited in Prague Castle for hundreds of years, and the deep-seated emotions lingering there gradually transford into another aspect of her spirituality.

“You have to know, living beings have seven emotions and six desires, and our consciousness and thinking are, in so respects, composed of these emotions.

“Hence, if all things have spirit, it naturally includes the emotions they emit.”

“…”

Xu Shuo felt like he still didn’t quite understand, and for the mont, he couldn’t imagine what emotions such as anger or happiness would look like as a form of spirituality.

It felt eerily strange.

“`

However, it’s no wonder after he and the Traveling Poet signed a Soul Contract, the other party claid to have gained the ability to control emotions.

It was probably acquired from Cerys.

“So, Cerys’s Self-Consciousness really isn’t in that script?” Xu Shuo asked again.

“Pretty much.”

“Then where did she go?”

“That’s unclear, after all, when the script was extracted, Prague Castle no longer existed.

Perhaps Cerys had already left with Alex’s reincarnation before then, or maybe her magic power weakened, and she was successfully ambushed by the Holy Maiden of the Holy Court, ending in mutual destruction.”

In any case, it’s either a cody or a tragedy.

As Hong Rao said this, she sighed, “It’s a good thing you didn’t cause much trouble this ti, although the Night Witch’s emotions also beca part of her spirituality, she’s essentially an empty vessel character that controls evil power, and thus this script is actually very susceptible to Abyssal infiltration.”

That’s why the low-rank players in the forums are so overjoyed; the instability of this script is too high.

But the Script Space insists on hanging onto this script, reluctant to recycle it, hence they often send Judgent to check on it.

It wouldn’t be surprising if the situation suddenly collapsed one day.

Xu Shuo’s gaze flickered, and he suddenly asked, “Cerys is so powerful, so is she human or sothing else?”

“Of course, she’s human.”

After saying so much, Hong Rao took her teacup, sipped from it, then continued, “I know what you’re curious about, but although witches have many strange titles, they are still humans.

She just mastered so sort of powerful evil power.

You can think of it like a person born with an immortal bone for Immortal Cultivation.”

“But I heard she’s immortal, only able to die if her heart is destroyed.”

“Think of it as if a person practicing Immortal Cultivation has a Primordial Spirit.

If the body dies, the Primordial Spirit can still survive, and without Spiritual Energy, the Primordial Spirit also perishes.”

“Oh…

So it’s the Primordial Spirit?”

“You could understand it that way, but what we consider the Primordial Spirit is actually a form of spiritual power.

The Witch poured all her spiritual power into a certain dium for preservation.

From then on, her flesh and blood beca nonessential.

Actually, this is also why her emotions could be so intense.”

As Hong Rao spoke, she poured tea into her cup from a teapot, then showed him the upside-down teapot that had no water in it.

Xu Shuo was silent.

He suddenly recalled an ani, that one with a cute magical girl with a round face.

In any case, she beca non-human.

After all, no longer requiring a human’s flesh and blood body, with only ethereal consciousness and spirit remaining, could that really still be called human?

He felt this question needed further contemplation.

“Right, since we’re on the topic of Immortal Cultivation.”

Hong Rao interrupted his train of thought, throwing a script interface in front of Xu Shuo and gritted her teeth, “This script!

This script has been deployed ti and again since I picked it out for you!

Next ti, you must enter and learn, no matter what!”

Xu Shuo glanced at the script, feeling slightly guilty.

After the “Green-skin Train” upgraded and before “Free Night,” Hong Rao had ntioned he should train in this script because whatever he learned there could be rembered, and he could continue practicing on his own even after leaving the script.

But after coming out of the faction script, he wanted to stimulate his dulled mind, so he entered the “Explosive Amusent Park” script first.

After leaving the amusent park, Xu Shuo saw the world gradually changing and felt that his current power was still too limited.

Therefore, he dived into a random script without a second word.

All things considered, he had indeed stood up this script three tis already.

Fine, he would definitely enter it next ti.
