Global Apocalypse: Awakening the Soul-Swallowing Talent at the Beginning.

"It is now basically confirmed that she has a close relationship with Lu Li."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Arthur finally spoke:

"But Sun Ying just said that Lu Li died in the Demon Realm twenty years ago as the Great Demon Li Yun."

"Therefore, the only way to figure out her origins right now is to start with the race she belongs to."

"My King, do you require me to travel to the Extreme Starfield and make contact with Lu Canglong?" Armstrong asked in a deep voice.

"Don't Lu Li and Lu Canglong have a feud?" Florence frowned and interjected.

"Wouldn't it be bad to make contact rashly before clarifying the relationship between friend and foe?"

“That’s right.” Arthur nodded slightly, confirming Florence’s words, and then slowly said to Armstrong:

"Making contact with Lu Canglong in the Limitless Starfield is the lowest priority; there should be other humans in the universe..."

"My King..." Before Arthur could finish speaking, Sun Ying's weak voice rang out from the side.

Arthur shut his mouth, not angry at his Eldar brethren's overstepping of bounds, but immediately adopted a listening posture, waiting for what was to come.

As the king of a clan, Arthur's rich life experience had allowed him to grasp the key from the very beginning.

To figure out this woman's origins, the key point is not what the Spirit Clan should do.

Because the entire Spirit Race, including him, the Spirit King, are outsiders.

The only one truly involved was Sun Ying, the returning traveler.

Will the Eldar be able to figure out the origins of this mysterious woman, and what countermeasures should be taken?

It all depends on how much useful information Sun Ying will reveal.

His previous remarks were merely a starting point to elicit further discussion.

"...If she and Lu Li were really very close, then at this point in time, there would be no way to find her 'kinsmen'."

Sun Ying took a deep breath and looked at the woman on the bed:

"She should be from the future, three hundred years from now, just like Lu Li."

Arthur's expression hardened, and he instinctively wanted to press for more information.

Before he could speak, Sun Ying waved her hand to interrupt him, saying:

"Your Majesty, please do not ask about the specifics."

Even if I were willing to tell you, you wouldn't understand.

"This branch of fate has little to do with the Spirit Race. Forcing an understanding of it will only create more complications."

"Uh, wait a minute, what do you mean even if you're willing to talk, I still won't understand?" Arthur blinked, a look of confusion on his face.

He could actually understand Sun Ying's intentional concealment.

After all, he had spent twenty years in the endless forest, being cared for by that mysterious and powerful race for twenty years.

Even a stone has been warmed up by the heat.

It is already very commendable that Sun Ying was able to return to the Spirit Clan and put herself in their shoes.

But Arthur was puzzled by the words "couldn't understand".

He's the Spirit King!

The leader of a clan, the person in charge of the Spirit Clan!

Not to mention being knowledgeable in astronomy and geography, or being proficient in everything;

Their knowledge base is also quite extensive.

What secrets are there that he can't understand?

Stop joking, okay!

Sun Ying showed no intention of explaining herself in the face of Arthur's questioning.

He opened his mouth and responded.

However, the language he spoke this time was extremely obscure, no longer the familiar Spirit Clan language.

Arthur's expression froze:

"what are you saying?"

Sun Ying shrugged and switched back to the Spirit Clan language:

"As for the specifics of Lu Li's situation."

"You wouldn't understand if I explained it to you, would you?"

Arthur was shocked.

Sun Ying's prediction came true.

He really couldn't understand!

Armstrong, standing to the side, interjected with a look of suspicion:

"Are you talking nonsense?"

“Repeat what you just said. I don’t believe you can pronounce it exactly the same.”

Sun Ying pursed her lips and, as Armstrong wished, repeated the obscure and difficult-to-understand words.

"Holy crap, it really isn't nonsense..." Armstrong exclaimed softly.

Arthur fell into a deep silence.

Florence, standing to the side, looked thoughtful and asked uncertainly:

"What you just said was... magic script?"

“Ancient secret script.” Sun Ying nodded, a hint of surprise appearing in her eyes as she looked at the old woman:

"It wouldn't be wrong to call it a demonic script."

"How did you know, Mother-in-law? Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"I don't have that kind of ability." Florence shook his head, a helpless smile appearing on his face.

"When I was young, I accidentally obtained a fragment of a book, on which some pharmacological knowledge was recorded in magical script. I studied it, so I was able to barely recognize that what you just said was magical script."

"But I didn't understand a single word of the content."

"So this is the magic runes? You've actually come into contact with them before..." Arthur looked Florence up and down, as if he were meeting him for the first time:

Why didn't I know?

"My king, what I've come across is merely a fragment of a book," Florence said, spreading his hands in a helpless gesture.

"The contents recorded above are mostly boring and absurd."

"And you know perfectly well that deciphering runes can have unpredictable negative effects on researchers."

"My tattered page has very little content, and it's related to pharmacology. Even those guys from the Spirit Race Research Association wouldn't even look at it, so why would I risk letting you, the King of the Spirit Race, take a look?"

"So after I finished my research, I destroyed it to avoid attracting the attention of higher beings."

"I see." Arthur nodded, indicating that he understood.

However, new doubts soon arose in his mind:

"its not right……"

"If you only studied one fragment, how could you tell that Sun Ying was speaking in demonic script?"

"I didn't even recognize it..."

"Because there are a few words that are the same in them," Florence replied truthfully.

"It was a coincidence, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to recognize that Sun Ying was speaking in demonic script."

"Huh?" Arthur's expression of confusion deepened.

"Didn't you say that the contents of that tattered page were absurd and boring pharmacological knowledge? How come there are words that overlap with what Sun Ying described?"

"Because the specific details recorded on that tattered page are about using the essence and will of a deity as a catalyst to create two unique potions of mythical quality," Florence replied earnestly.

"The overlapping words are 'deity' and 'essence'."

"It was because Sun Ying mentioned those two words just now that I recognized that she was talking about demonic script."

“Using the body and will of a god as a medicinal ingredient? That’s truly absurd…” Arthur clicked his tongue repeatedly.

“Yes, I think it’s complete nonsense. Plus, it’s only one page long and has no context, so I just took it as a silly joke played by the gods and destroyed it,” Florence agreed wholeheartedly.

"Otherwise, I might end up like those poor researchers in the past, unable to withstand the corrosive power of the twisted forces and turning into a monster..."
