As the corpse collector's projection completely disappeared, the scene Leo saw through his spiritual vision also disappeared. He returned to the normal space again, and the ship that was empty a moment ago had returned to its original bustle.

What happened just now seemed to Leo to be very long, as if it took a whole day, but in fact it was only a second or even less. A sailor walking behind him even just raised his feet.

, haven’t put down his feet yet.

No one on the boat knew that an almost divine being had just been projected near them and was swallowed up by the world. But the fact that the people on the boat didn't know it didn't mean that other things were ignorant of what had just happened.

The Snow Queen is a very magical ship. Its hidden ability allows it to capture any abnormal energy fluctuations around it and feed it back to the captain.

The old captain who was resting in the captain's cabin was instantly awakened by the flashing alarm light in the room. However, when he rushed over the console and checked the specific situation, the alarm light disappeared. If it were not for the alarm light that triggered the ship,

His own defense mechanism has not calmed down because the alarm was lifted, and he might think that what he just saw was just an illusion.

Although the alarm has been lifted now, the old captain has no idea of ​​relaxing. He carefully checked the situation of the ship and found any abnormalities.

With a trace of doubt, he walked to the desk-like console, and then removed the disguise from his body. His whole person began to twist and transform, his body lifted up, each limb separated into six limbs, tentacles grew from his head, and his glasses split into dozens of pieces.

The mouth was split into more than a dozen petals, and the whole person looked like a weird humanoid insect.

After completing the mutation, he inserted his twelve upper limbs into the round holes on the edge of the console, and pressed the twelve buttons hidden inside in sequence according to the opening method.

After completing the opening method, a hole was immediately opened in the console, and a crystal pillar the size of a finger protruded from the bottom.

The tentacles on the old captain's forehead stretched out flexibly, rolled up the crystal pillar, and then skillfully inserted it into a groove next to it that was about the same size as the stone pillar.

At the moment when the stone pillar was inserted, a ray of light emerged from the stone pillar and was projected on the top of the captain's cabin, creating a projection full of secret words.

The old captain's eyes were all focused on the secret words that kept flashing in the projection. He seemed very casual at first, but soon his body began to tremble involuntarily because he found the reason for the alarm just now, and this reason made him feel incredible.

, which made him even more frightened.

After finding the information he wanted, the old captain used his tentacles to remove the crystal pillar, then put it back to its previous position and restored the console to its original state. After that, he also changed his body back to his human disguise.

The old captain walked to his desk, picked up a very old typewriter from under the desk, put it on the desk, and prepared to type something.

But when he put his hand on the typewriter, he hesitated again, because he felt that if he really transmitted the content of the record and analysis to the Queen through this special typewriter, not only would he not be able to get any awards,

On the contrary, he would be scolded by the queen, because this was so absurd. Even if he saw the record of the ship itself, he still couldn't believe the content on it.

"A god died nearby just now. Is this possible?" The old captain sat in front of the table, hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help but muttered to himself.

It's no wonder that the old captain would be suspicious of the ship's records, because if you change the secret language you just saw, the meaning is that gods fell just now, around the ship.

Not to mention whether there are really gods that have fallen around the ship, even if the gods only appear near the ship, it will not be as peaceful as it is now. It will definitely be accompanied by various movements, such as the sky being covered by dark clouds,

The sea is rolling and surging, and other scenes that are obvious enough to make people feel the great power within them.

But just now he didn't find any abnormality at all, not even a big wave. And in this case, if he passed the news to the Queen, he felt that the consequences of doing so would probably be severely scolded by the Queen, or even

Transfer him directly back to the kingdom.

Thinking of this, the old captain still felt that it was better not to bother the Queen with such unexplainable things.

So, he put the printer he had just taken out back into the safe under the desk and locked it up, continuing what he had just interrupted and left unfinished.

At the same time, Leo had returned to his cabin, closed the door, and lay on the bed, his whole body and mind sinking into the secret knowledge he had just obtained from the Mark of the Corpse Collector.

That knowledge is very complex, and there are a lot of light and shadow memories with unknown meanings, and these light and shadow memories are very dangerous. When Leo tries to see clearly what these light and shadow memories are, his brain's thinking will fall into chaos inexplicably, if it weren't for his will

The power is strong enough, maybe he has gone crazy now.

Therefore, after he sinks his brain into his memory, he will immediately carefully separate these memories of light and shadow that make him feel extremely dangerous and seal them up separately.

The whole process was very slow. In the next few days, except for appearing on the deck when eating, Leo would spend the rest of the time in the cabin clearing his memory.

Old Beren came to him one after another, also for those treasure hunters whose seeds were planted, because he could clearly feel from the behaviors of those people that they seemed a little weird, so he thought of Leo

ability, and wanted to use Leo's ability to check out the true situation of these people.

But Leo refused Old Beren's request because he was concentrating on controlling those light and shadow memories at the time and could not use the mental network distractedly.

In this way, it took him five days to completely peel off the light and shadow memories that made him feel extremely dangerous, separate a part of his brain, and build a memory lock to temporarily seal these light and shadow memories, and explore them later when he is able.

.

Although the light and shadow memory has been cleaned up, it is not too late. The remaining memory fragments have become even more fragmented due to the stripping of the light and shadow memory. They are like gravel in a sand pile and require enough patience and strong analytical skills.

, was able to restore this gravel-like memory fragment into a memory segment that he could understand.

It took Leo about two days to repair the first memory segment. The moment he repaired it, he felt that the memory was not dangerous and couldn't wait to absorb it into his own memory.

Although the repaired memory is only a small part, the content is extremely huge. When Leo is absorbing it, he must always keep in mind that this memory will affect his thinking, so it takes a little time to absorb this memory.

No need to repair this memory much less.

It wasn't until the Snow Queen ended its nearly ten-day voyage and sailed into the waters east of the Pearl Island Chain, heading towards Shackles Island, the largest transit port in the waters, that Leo completely absorbed this memory.

In this memory, although he did not get any information about the origin of the corpse collector, he learned something very important to him, that is, Yam Island, Lake Town and other places that the corpse collector can enter are just

Subspace is also part of the entire world, just like Leo's current world of Velen.

In this memory, the corpse collector has been to a large number of worlds through connections with various waters and the attraction of clerical beliefs. Some worlds have the same special power as Velen to keep him outside, but there are more worlds that are more complicated.

Like Yam Island and Lake Town, He can enter that world, but cannot leave the water, because water is the source of life for Him. Once separated, His life will disappear, just like people cannot live without air.

.

Among the worlds he can enter, most of them, like Hushang Town, have established a belief system similar to the corpse collector priesthood. Through these belief systems, the corpse collector can travel through these worlds at will and will not be trapped in these worlds.

repulsed by the power of.

There are also some worlds that he accidentally discovered in the sea. These worlds are not like the world of Velen, and they have an almost absolute repulsive effect on him.

Although those worlds rejected him, they were more or less within the range that he could bear. Among these worlds, Leo saw many worlds with the shadow of the end of everything, because he saw

In those worlds, there are special species like the Ember Butterfly that only appear in the place where everything ends.

He doesn't like these worlds, because he can feel that the longer he stays in that world, the more confused his thoughts will be, and the less likely he will leave, and will eventually be assimilated by such a world.

This is not his guess, but he has indeed seen that there are gods that have been assimilated into that world, and they are not just one, but a group.

Because this memory about the assimilation of the gods in the place where everything ends is very complete, when Leo read this memory, he felt as if he was actually there, feeling that the gods in the memory were walking aimlessly like zombies.

I felt an aura of almost despair, and the more interesting thing is that these gods, without exception, are demigods like the corpse collectors, and are not real omega-level advanced life forms.

Although this part of the memory reveals a lot of secrets about the world, it also creates more doubts, because if the size of the world in the memory of the corpse collector is really calculated, then the area of ​​​​the world is extremely huge.

It is definitely much larger than the largest habitable planet Leo has ever seen in the universe.

Although there are many larger planets in the universe, the problem is that those planets are not suitable at all because of their huge size, extremely high density, and terrible gravity. They can even attract light like black holes.

Inhabited by any living thing.

What's more important is that the main component of this world is water, which is completely contrary to the physical laws of the normal universe. Therefore, instead of reducing the doubts in Leo's heart due to the absorption of this knowledge, it has become more.

In addition, what makes Leo regretful about this knowledge is that he did not obtain the ability and method of corpse collectors to travel through various worlds through oceans and other waters. The only comfort is that he knows that this ability comes from the abilities of corpse collectors themselves. If he could

Mastering the power in the corpse collector's mark may give you the ability to travel through various worlds. Of course, the premise is that you will not be discovered and captured by the corpse collector during the journey.

In addition to some secret knowledge about the composition of this world, Leo also obtained some secrets about the power of the corpse collector's mark from this memory, or the secret of the power of the corpse collector.

In a way, the divine authority of the Corpse Collector and the Death God Kain are almost the same. They are both incarnations of the power of death, but the difference is that the Death God Kain is only interested in the souls of intelligent creatures, while the Corpse Collector is like

It is a corpse recycling station. Not only human corpses, but also animal corpses, insect corpses, and even the corpses of gods are all within its collection range.

Just like the soul is the source of power for the Death God Kain, these corpses are also the source of power for the corpse collector. He can increase his power by continuously collecting corpses. The higher the life level of the collected corpses, the more power he gains.

It may even cause qualitative changes.

For example, the reason why the Corpse Collector was able to produce a trace of wisdom was because he accidentally collected the corpse of a god.

The Mark of the Corpse Collector also has the function of collecting the corpse's transformation power. Leo can also control this power, but after carefully studying this power, he is still hesitant about whether to use this power and how to use it.

The reason for this is because he discovered that the corpse collector's method of increasing strength has great drawbacks, and may even cause the corpse collector to perish in the end.

Any power that can be improved quickly inevitably has some unavoidable drawbacks. For example, Death God Kain gains power in the soul by guiding the soul back to the world, but he will also be affected by some more mysterious obsessions in the soul.

, but he has a group of outstanding family members who can help him share these obsessions, allowing him to minimize the impact of disadvantages.

Similarly, the Corpse Collector collects corpses, and while gaining strength from them, he will also be affected by some unavoidable obsessions in the corpses. However, he is not like the God of Death, Kain, who has an incomparably suitable family member like the Web Weaver to share these disadvantages for him.

, in the end all these shortcomings fell on him, which is the main reason why he, a demigod who is extremely close to an Omega-level advanced life form, only possesses some animal instinct wisdom.

Moreover, there are many types of corpses collected by the corpse collectors, which can be said to be raw and cold. Unlike the souls guided by the god of death, Kain, whose essence is the same, the power transformed from so many corpses is also extremely chaotic and lawful. These powers are in

For a period of time, it may not affect the corpse collector, but when he needs to evolve his life, these powers will inevitably become his biggest obstacle, preventing him from ever evolving into an Omega-level advanced life form.
