Chapter 96 The Birth of the Strange Soul (25)
Xu Yi woke up suddenly, his breathing was slightly short of breath, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat. The loud sound of car horns could be heard outside, which made him feel relieved.
"It turned out to be just a dream!"
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. His body was still extremely weak, but he could barely move.
The sunset outside the window was setting, and the golden afterglow spilled into the room through the gaps in the curtains.
He turned and glanced at the alarm clock on the wall. It was already past five in the afternoon. He had slept since last night.
His stomach growled, and he felt so hungry that he could eat a whole cow.
The wound on his palm had scabbed over, so Xu Yi didn't pay much attention to it. He went directly to the door cabinet and called the front desk to order food.
After hanging up the phone, he subconsciously looked at the dining table. The lighter parts that were disassembled last night were still scattered on the table.
His hand suddenly trembled and the microphone fell to the ground.
The Annabell doll actually sat on the dining table, her back straight.
He clearly remembered that the doll was lying on the dining table when the contract was bound.
Could it be that there was a gap in his memory and he finally lifted the doll up but forgot about it?
At this moment, the Annabell doll suddenly turned its head and stared directly at Xu Yi. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the doll's eyes were very similar to the little girl in the dream.
He tensed up and looked at the Annabelle doll warily.
Could it be that the Ram Church is making a comeback? Or is the doll possessed by other evil spirits?
But he clearly remembered that the contract had been successful and Annabelle had become his puppet.
He stared for a moment and found that the Annabelle doll had no intention of attacking him.
The other party sat quietly at the dining table, only turning his head from time to time to look at Xu Yi and the room, like a well-behaved little girl who came to a strange place and looked around curiously.
Xu Yi relaxed a little, and he suddenly remembered that if the contract binding was successful, the system should have a prompt.
When the system was turned on, Xu Yi saw the information on the panel clearly, his eyes widened.
[Annabelle (Alien Soul): Loyalty value 100 (permanently constant)]
Alien Soul, what is this?
Why do ghosts appear in Annabelle dolls?
The most exaggerated thing is, why is the loyalty value of the alien soul to him full of 100, and it is always constant?
Xu Yi suddenly realized that something must have happened while he was unconscious.
He communicated with the system and tried to understand what was going on through the system. The system actually responded, and a stream of information poured into his mind.
"What kind of bullshit luck is this!" Xu Yi couldn't help but sigh after receiving the message.
The Annabell doll has experienced possession by the devil, the evil spirit Janice, and the evil god, making the doll a breeding ground for souls.
If the birth process of Annabelle's soul is compared to planting, then the doll is the fertile soil, and Xu Yi's blood is the sunshine and rain.
But even with fertile land and ample sunshine and rain, it is still impossible to grow fruits. This still lacks the most important thing...that is, the seeds, which are the fragments of Xu Yi's soul.
Normally, the human soul is very stable. As a psychic, Xu Yi's soul is much more active than ordinary people.
When the psychic ability is activated, the soul may even leave the body.
This is a prerequisite, but it is not enough.
"The contracted puppet was very tired that night, and then lost a lot of blood, and finally used blood ectoplasm. The accumulation of these extreme circumstances caused his soul to become extremely unstable." Xu Yi thought about what happened last night
. . "Because he was in the contract puppet at that time, the contract channel was like a
dark whirlpool under the water, and his unstable soul was pulled. The result was that part of his soul entered the Annabelle doll, and a strange soul was born!"
It’s already clear. What he saw before was not a dream, but deep inside the doll's soul, the little girl he saw was a strange spirit.
No wonder the loyalty value is always at 100, no wonder the alien soul Annabell said that the other party is him... In essence, Annabell is his split soul.
Xu Yi rubbed his swollen temples. There were pros and cons to this situation.
The advantage is obvious, because it is a split soul, so the puppet can be manipulated like a finger.
The most important thing is that as the alien souls continue to grow, their level of intelligence will become higher and higher, even as high as that of humans.
At that time, it will no longer be a "remote control robot", but a "smart chip terminator".
Of course there are disadvantages, because it is Xu Yi's split soul, which is equivalent to his companion soul.
Once Annabell suffers a serious injury, or even dies, he will also suffer a backlash.
[Puppetry +4, current progress 21/100]
Xu Yi rubbed his eyes and almost thought he was hallucinating. He clearly didn't do anything, so why did he suddenly gain experience in puppetry?
And isn’t the progress of the Puppetry entry zero? When did it exceed 20%?
[Puppetry +3, current progress 24/100]
This is not an illusion, the experience of puppetry is indeed increasing. This kind of information is not one or two, one will pop up about every ten minutes.
Xu Yi looked at the Annabell doll on the table and suddenly understood what was going on.
"Gongyang Church is such a good person!" Xu Yi sighed.
The doll is the "fertile land" for the soul. Now that the soul has sprouted, it will naturally absorb the "nutrients" left in the land.
Whether it is demons, evil spirits, or evil gods, they are all direct contributors of nutrients, and all of this is inseparable from the "support" of the Ram Church.
The experience of puppetry is soaring, the alien soul Annabell is also growing, everything is developing towards a good place, Xu Yi can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, Xu Yi opened the door, and the hotel delivery person came over.
Xu Yi walked inside holding the dinner plate and murmured in a low voice, "Am I that scary? Running so fast?" The
delivery person just now seemed to have seen a ghost when he saw him, and handed him the things tremblingly. , and ran away in a flash.
When passing by the living room, there happened to be a small mirror on the wine cabinet. Xu Yi suddenly froze and stared blankly at the mirror.
The person in the mirror looked pale, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, and a haggard face, like a recently dried mummy.
If it weren't for those bright black eyes, he wouldn't have believed it was him in the mirror.
"Is this the sequelae of dividing the soul?"
Xu Yi looked at himself no longer handsome in the mirror, feeling very sad...then he turned his sadness into appetite and gnawed two more pig trotters.
As soon as he finished eating, he received a call from Judy, to whom he had left the hotel number.
"Are you going to visit Mr. Warren in the hospital?"
Xu Yi glanced at himself in the mirror, hesitated for a moment, and nodded. If he went to see Ed like this, he might gain something extra.
He washed up and put on new clothes. When he was about to go out, he returned to the room, found a pair of sunglasses and put them on.
Xu Yi strode across the hotel door. In a corner where he didn't notice, the two people looked at each other and saw a smile in each other's eyes.
The target left without a box, which was absolutely good news for them.
