Chapter 39 Spirit Body
Delia's residence is also in the Tallinn district, about 3 blocks from the Royal Delorings College.
Donald, who left the laboratory, came here with a note. He had questions and wanted to consult. Diliya was at home, and the two sat opposite each other in the "psychological counseling room" on the second floor.
Without the curtains, the night view of Tallinn outside is vaguely visible, and the lights inside the house are bright.
"As the name suggests, this is an existence formed by hiding a strong resentment towards a certain person, something, a certain scene... and some strange environments and encounters. In the book "Spirit Body", wizards describe these existences as a collection of resentment. The deep-sea resentment you meet is this kind of."
After hearing Donald's purpose, Diliya first explained the definition of the existence of a vengeful spirit according to her own memory.
"The damage caused by my spells on the wreck this afternoon was not very satisfactory. My two aggressive spells are electricity and fire. Are they not attributes with extremely powerful attack power?"
Taking a sip of the coffee prepared by Delia, Donald leaned on the right side of the sofa to make his body as comfortable as possible.
"Electricity, fire... The resentment spirit is not an ordinary existence. As I said above, this is a resentment collection. It itself has resistance to most elements. The two types of spells, namely the electric and fire system, should be said to be the two more effective spells. If you say it is not satisfactory, what is the specific state of it?"
Holding a pen in his hand, Diliya pushed her glasses and wrote down some nouns on the notes in her hand. Seeing from the window outside, the two were having a conversation about psychological counseling.
In fact, this meeting is also a preview, and the two will have no less communication in this form in the future.
"At that time, I used two level 2 spells and hit the deep-sea vengeful spirit one after another, but the armor on it..."
"Wait, armor, what armor?"
Hearing a strange noun, Diliya paused and asked.
"It's a set of submersible sea suits, with iron cables tied behind them and throwing people into the sea to do their work."
Donald thought he wanted to explain what the armor was.
"I know the sea diving suit. What I want to ask is why there is such a thing on the deep sea vengeful spirit!"
“Is this strange?”
"Have you ever seen any substance appearing on the body when a soul body appears?"
A rhetorical question made Donald speechless for a moment, because the latter did not understand the resentful spirits that he ignored many strange things.
Whether it is a ghost or a vengeful spirit, it can generally be called an energy collection. They are themselves a mass of energy with certain actions and thinking power, but this does not mean that such an existence can equip itself with some physical objects.
Simply put, it is normal to wave the iron anchor. As long as the ability is strong enough, controlling some items will be no problem for these existences, and it is even more convenient than humans.
But if we say that these energy gatherings would run around wearing a set of armor, and if we wanted to leave the wreckage, we would have to use an iron anchor to make a hole for ourselves.
This is extremely unreasonable in itself.
Because one of the essences of spiritual bodies is nothingness, ignoring the collision volume of objects, this is a characteristic that all spiritual bodies have, why has there been a change in this deep-sea vengeful spirit?
"I noticed that one of your words is that its armor can restore itself, right? Are you sure you see the recovery of that armor?"
On the notes page, Diliya circled several black circles on the outer layer of the word self-recovery.
"Yes, I can be sure that the damage caused by the spell did not exist for too long. The armor returned to its original appearance in just a few minutes."
I recalled for a while and confirmed that I did not have any dizziness at that time.
"I know the reason why your spell has little effect. The key is that this armor, that is, the submerged sea suit, has been assimilated by the energy of this vengeful spirit itself!"
"assimilation?"
Donald had no idea in his mind, so he could only touch his nose awkwardly, correct his posture, flipped his notebook, pointed to the pen in Diliya's hand, and after taking it, his empty hand made another request.
Psychological counseling becomes a student's listening to the class.
"There is a chapter in the book "The Monster Phenomenon of Spirits" that specifically mentions the possibility of this. Because spiritual bodies are exposed outside for many years, the energy on their bodies will always overflow. These overflowing energy itself carry the mark of the spirit. Therefore, after long-term contact with certain items, they may undergo special changes. Generally, this change is limited to the surface, such as the temperature of the items, illusions appear in certain environments, etc. There should be many such objects in the sea market, and some people often collect these things to deceive some strange disciples who do not understand."
After a brief pause, Diliya supported her chin with one hand, frowned and thought for a while, and continued,
"Just as for the resentful spirits alone, some extremely powerful existences can often form a special energy field around them. Just like when they appear, they often fall with temperature and dark vision, they are more likely to cause changes in some items. If the item itself has special meaning to the resentful spirit, the assimilation phenomenon I mentioned will appear. I have reason to suspect that the armor was assimilated by the resentful spirit with its own energy, and then activated a certain special force, which makes it difficult for your spell to work."
"Then how can I beat it?"
Donald is more interested in a deep-sea vengeful spirit with assimilation equipment.
"The power of resentful spirits is often stronger than other spirits. The root cause lies in their resentment. This emotion or desire will inject negative energy into these spirits, which is equivalent to our mental attributes. They pursue revenge, killing, and torture... These are all what they want. The more they kill, the more souls and negative energy they absorb, the stronger their abilities will be. If you want to defeat such an existence, if you cannot crush absolute power, use targeted spells or destroy its resentment crystals, then there is only one way left to find the source of resentment, eliminate its resentment, and the power of resentment that loses the target of resentment will be greatly weakened."
This is the final suggestion given by Diliya.
"The root of resentment...that is, I have to check how he died and why he had such heavy resentment."
"Yes, you need to investigate this. I can't help you in this regard. Our cooperation does not include this."
Diliya closed the notes and put them on the tableside, tidied up her clothes, which obviously meant to give away the guests.
"What if I want you to repay that life-saving favor? I didn't want you to repay it before, but I really don't know what to do about this deep-sea vengeful spirit. I need your help."
Donald is not a person who likes to repay kindness. What he wants is that Dilya can use the knowledge in her brain to help him.
"Repay kindness?"
He asked softly, then grabbed the women's coat hanging behind the table from the boat, took a silk hat with lace, and said, "Shoulder's head to the door next to him."
"What are you waiting for? The rainstorm week may begin tomorrow. Some things must be investigated in advance."
In fact, Donald misunderstood Diliya's meaning. At least she stood next to the table and didn't just want to see the guests off. She was also waiting for Donald to ask her for help. The previous communication made her know that Donald didn't know some knowledge of spiritual bodies.
Diliya doesn't like to owe favors.
"While walking, I've really found some information in my hand."
In the afternoon, through Professor Cook's information at the institute, Donald also had a lot of understanding of what happened to the Greber Chamber of Commerce in recent times. Through some comparisons and timeline sorting, he vaguely realized the facts hidden under the reports of external public opinion.
On the streets of Tallinn, Donald and Diliya went to the Maritime Bureau to investigate the incidents at sea. It is definitely not wrong to go here.
Along the way, Donald saw many businesses carrying ladders to remove signs and decorations at the door, and some people pulled carts and removed all the potted plants placed on the windowsill at the door. The approaching rainy week made Demingham enter a special period of each year.
"The revenge of the deep-sea vengeful spirits is extremely purposeful. None of the five ships is not the Grebe Chamber of Commerce, and there is also the iron anchor killing this afternoon. In my opinion, it is an attack on the vice chairman of the Grebe Chamber of Commerce. This chamber of commerce must be among its object of resentment."
Put your hands in your pockets, and the wind is wet.
Finger traveled back and forth between Donald's legs, enjoying it.
"This is normal. The revenge of the vengeful spirit is like this. It has a clear goal and has a certain degree of coherence. That is, as long as the person close to the existence it hates is an enemy. If you interfere in this matter, you must be prepared to be attacked by it as an obstacle."
Diliya raised the collar of her coat. She was still a little sensitive to the blowing of the night wind. Donald saw it, but he had nothing to take out now. He couldn't drag the coat to her. If he was misunderstood, he would be embarrassed.
"I found out that the first retaliatory attack of the deep-sea vengeful spirit was three months ago, and at this time, it was the shipwreck case that was very raucous at that time."
"Three months... Is there anything earlier?"
Dilia's sudden response made Donald blink twice, not knowing what to say. The latter noticed that it might be his own thinking jumping, so he said immediately,
Chapter completed!
