Chapter 257 The Essence of Rules

chi chi chi...

The moment the emotional clone created by the goblin priest was pierced, a terrifying sucking force emanated from the chain of order.

"Ah--" The emotional clone of the goblin priest only had time to let out a scream before the divinity in his body was completely devoured by the brutal plunder of the chain.

"Run! Run!"

The goblin priest Abu, who had a part of his divinity swallowed up, was filled with fear. He had no intention of fighting against the chains of order controlled by the great dream master.

After all, the gap in hard power between the two sides is too big.

You should know that the so-called divinity is actually the core part of the bodies of these gods. It is one of the specific manifestations of them transcending the body and soul after they shed their "mortal bodies".

If we use an analogy, the divinity that was just eaten is equivalent to an ordinary person having a piece of flesh bitten off by some special life form, and even part of his soul is eaten!
If it were to be "eaten" a few more times, its life level might even drop, or it might even go crazy due to the incomplete divinity, becoming a pitiful existence that has lost its mind and is neither alive nor dead.

"Mother Goddess, save me! Save me!" Abu's face was panic-stricken, and his dark green eyes were full of fear.

Because just after the first emotional clone was accidentally "caught", two more clones were pierced and swallowed by the chain of order!

The successive losses of divinity made Abu's consciousness become a little hazy. This most fundamental damage from the core of the divine body has affected his combat effectiveness.

Although the current loss of the divine body's divinity is only in the range of 13% to 16%, this kind of damage to divinity, even if it is only 5%, is enough to be considered a serious blow. Even Abu's memory and combat skills have been partially lost as a result. If he wants to recall or recover, it will take hundreds or even thousands of years as the unit of measurement.

What made Abu even more terrified and angry was that in the current situation, as more of his divinity was eaten up, he suffered the backlash of the loss of divinity, and the combat capabilities of the remaining emotional clones began to decline sharply. Facing the encirclement of those chains of order, they found it increasingly difficult and increasingly dangerous.

"I can't die here! I have to find a way to leave!" Abu felt a strong pain in his body. He gritted his teeth and controlled the remaining emotional clones to quickly merge with his original body.

Although this would cause his main body to be attacked by the chains of order at full force, if he continued to allow these chains to devour his emotional clone, he would probably fall into a deep sleep due to excessive loss of divinity before he could escape from this real place.

And falling asleep here is no different from being declared dead!

"Is this a battle at the level of gods?" Lucian carefully observed the battle between the goblin priest Abu and the dozens of rule chains, but he had no way of seeing the mysteries contained in it.

Even in his opinion, the attacks of these chains of order seemed a bit "stupid", like some kind of attack performed by a weak wizard apprentice. But Abu's emotional clones just couldn't escape the entanglement of these chains, and even lost several clones in succession due to the entanglement of these chains.

"Boy, this battle is still too high-level for you. You don't even have an accurate understanding of the rules. When you watch them fight, you naturally don't know the games involving the rules." The voice of Count Sanasis sounded in his mind.

"Then... do you understand, Thanasis?" Lucian asked subconsciously. If Count Thanasis could understand, perhaps he could use his perspective to trade for the opportunity to "explain" this time. However, what Lucian received in response was Count Thanasis's awkward silence.

The silence speaks.

"It won't be of much benefit for you to understand these things now. It may even cause some unnecessary interference in your promotion to a second-level wizard or a third-level wizard." After two or three seconds of silence, Count Sanasis slowly spoke, but one could more or less taste the feeling of being strong on the outside but weak on the inside in his tone.

"Then... do you know what the rules specifically refer to?"

Although Lucian had experienced the "distorted" rules cast by the goblin priest Abu before, and had also seen the confrontation between the golden scales manipulated by the paper judge and the distorted rules, he was still somewhat curious about this power. After realizing that Count Sanasis seemed to know something about it, he also asked about the doubts in his heart.

"Take me to the stone slab first." Count Sanasis seemed to be more knowledgeable about this issue, so he spoke with more confidence and his tone had a bit of "control".

"slate?"

Lucian was stunned, but he soon realized that the purpose of Count Sanasis's invitation to him to enter the real land was to touch this special stone tablet.

“But I feel like they’re rejecting me…” Lucian raised his head and looked at the slate and quill floating in the air not far away, hesitating about how to approach them.

He even felt that if he got closer, perhaps a chain of rules specifically targeting him would descend.

"What are you afraid of? There's no benefit in eating you, and it would even consume a lot of energy." Count Sanasis said casually, "Besides, you are under my protection now, so what are you afraid of!"

“I brought your real body with me this time.” Lucian said in a deep voice.

"Well, it's a good thing for young people to be more steady. I will definitely help you keep a close eye on things." Count Sanasis paused.

Perhaps feeling a little embarrassed, Count Sanasis quickly explained some basic information about the rules to Lucian.

"Flesh and blood life forms have both a body and a soul. You should know this, right? Just like when you wizards cultivate your spiritual power, it is essentially a refined manipulation of the power of the soul. Although the body and the soul are combined with each other and have a deep connection, they are still two independent individuals in essence."

"But at the level of gods, the body and soul will merge into one, becoming the so-called divinity, or what you wizards call a 'spiritual body'. It has the duality of a body and a soul. It can show the characteristics of 'matter' and descend into the real world, or it can show the characteristics of a soul and become some kind of illusory, symbolic existence."

Count Sanasis explained softly, "And the so-called rules are the key adhesive used by practitioners to fuse their bodies and souls when they are promoted to gods!"
