Beast Raiders Guide

While Lin An was thinking, the little rabbit had already written three more words crookedly on the ground.

Spirit, soul, treasure, stone.

Sure enough, Lin An guessed right.

At that time, Aris' father seemed to be telling Aris something, so Aris knew about the soul gem.

Why did their father and son know about the soul gem?

And now what does this rabbit want to explain by writing these four words?

Could it be - the soul gem is here?

After the rabbit finished writing the four characters, he raised his head and looked at Lin An.

It seemed to be very irritable, its eyeballs were spinning wildly, and the hair all over its body stood up, as if it had turned into a fur ball.

Lin An didn't know why it behaved like this, so he could only stroke its fur soothingly.

Unexpectedly, the rabbit didn't appreciate it, so he raised his hand and scratched Lin An's hand fiercely.Lin An only felt a pain in the back of his hand, and there were already four thin cuts, and blood slowly seeped out from the cuts.

The rabbit turned around quickly and ran towards the stone platform.

"Wait!" Lin An was in a hurry, and ran forward behind the rabbit without caring about anything else.

The rabbit is very wrong now, Lin An can't let it mess around.

It would be bad if there was any trouble again.

The rabbit flew fast like an arrow off the string, and soon arrived in front of the stone platform.

The stone platform was less than half a meter high, and the rabbit swooped up, then tore off the white cloth with its paws.

The moment the white cloth was lifted, Lin An subconsciously stopped, even his heart tightened.

—but nothing happened.

Fortunately, nothing happened, Lin An couldn't help but rejoice in his heart.

Lin An felt that now his whole body was almost in a state of panic, and everything was like a war.

Under the white cloth is a small wooden tray. On the tray is an egg-sized, irregularly shaped translucent white gemstone, reflecting the flickering candlelight all around, like a dream.

The rabbit squatted next to the gem, stared blankly at the gem, and stretched its paw towards the gem.

Layers of soft white light rippled, spreading from the place where the rabbit touched the gemstone, enveloping the rabbit.

After seeing clearly what happened in front of him, Lin An couldn't help blinking hard.

So far, everything has been so weird.

——Especially the scene in front of me.

In the white light, the shape of the rabbit slowly changed.

The body size becomes larger, the hair slowly fades, and the limbs are transformed into hands and feet.

The human that the rabbit turned into has short silver hair and looks very familiar.

He slowly raised his head to look in Lin An's direction, there was no emotion in his dark eyes.

"Aris?" Lin An couldn't help exclaiming after seeing the boy's appearance clearly.

The appearance of the boy is exactly the same as Aris.Silver hair and black eyes, but the expression is dull, without a trace of life, not at all like Aris, although gloomy but still full of vitality.

The young man jumped down from the stone platform with a blank expression on his face.

His eyeballs were empty, like a puppet without his own feelings, he mechanically walked towards Lin An step by step.

Is this really Aris?Or just like it.

Why did the rabbit turn into Aris again?

Seeing Aris like this, Lin An couldn't help taking a step back.

However, his actions seemed to have angered the young man, the young man suddenly bent his feet and bounced up, like a preying beast, jumped up, and swooped towards this side.

Lin An reflexively released the bondage of light, and Aris' figure was immediately suspended in the air.

Although facing Aris, Lin An did not dare to relax at all.

No matter how you look at it, the current Aris is abnormal.

But if the previous rabbit was Aris, then some things can be explained.

No wonder the rabbit wants to follow him, no wonder the rabbit doesn't like Cecien.

Lin An stepped back while thinking.

The three seconds of the light bondage passed quickly, and Aris' face was a little angry. He knelt down on one knee, and after landing on the ground, he suddenly raised his head, pressed his hands on the ground, and looked at Lin An coldly.

Lin An's heart felt trembling when he saw it, and he backed away and said, "Aris, don't you know me?"

Aris rushed forward without saying a word.

At this time, Aris was like a vigorous beast, and his originally empty eyes gradually became like a beast, shining with wild light.If it weren't for the identical appearance, Lin An would never think that this person is Aris.

Using both hands and feet, he rushed towards Lin An like a beast.

Lin An didn't dare to use his offensive skills, and the time for the Binding of Light hadn't expired, so he had to dodge in embarrassment.

However, in terms of physical strength, Lin An was just a poor otaku. Almost instantly, he was thrown to the ground by Aris.

The neck was strangled by Aris, completely out of breath.

Lin An struggled vigorously, but Aris pressed him tightly, his hands clenched tighter and tighter.

Lin An's eyes turned black for a while, and his consciousness became more and more blurred due to lack of oxygen.

Just when he was about to faint, Aris' hand suddenly relaxed a little.

Lin An didn't have time to think about it, he just panted heavily.

However, before he recovered, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.

Aris bit his neck hard!

Lin An tried hard to push Aris away, but Aris was still pinching his neck with one hand. Feeling his movement, he immediately pinched it tightly.

Lin An, who hadn't eaten or drank water for a long time, couldn't push Aris away smoothly at this time, and his consciousness began to become blurred again due to lack of oxygen.

Half dazed and half dazed, Lin An only felt a chill, his whole body shivered suddenly, and even his mind suddenly cleared up a lot.

Before I had time to think about what was going on, something had already pushed in violently.

Lin An couldn't help crying out from the long-lost tearing pain.

Aris this guy...

Lin An gritted his teeth, tried his best to relax his body, and endured his rough entry and exit, but the entry and exit without foreplay had already made his body tense, and his muscles did not obey Lin An's command at all.

In addition to pain, it still hurts.

Lin An had no way to let himself ignore the severe pain, so he could only bite his lower lip.

As Aris entered and exited, he tugged on Lin An's shirt indiscriminately.

His slightly cold hand was like a piece of ice, and Lin An had goose bumps everywhere he touched it.

Rough sex is no pleasure at all, just a torture that never seems to end.

Lin An looked blankly at the top of the cave, feeling as if he had returned to the very first world.

The difference is that at this time, he doesn't feel angry or ashamed, let alone sad.All senses seemed to be numb.

That's it, get through it, and then you can go back.

Get over it and you'll be fine.

Lin An slowly closed his eyes.

The skirt was ripped open, and something fell to the ground with a ding. Aris gnawed all the way down his neck. It was really gnawing, and every bite brought severe pain.

Lin An felt that there must be teeth marks all over his body. ,

I don't know how long it has passed, but the inner wall of the □ felt a sudden eruption of heat, and the movement of Aris on his body stopped suddenly, and he lay on him and gasped lowly.

Lin An moved slightly, and pushed Aris away forcefully.

Aris had just been released, and he didn't pay attention at this time, and was pushed to the ground by him.

Lin An barely sat up, thinking that Aris would jump over immediately, but found that Aris kept falling, looking sideways, motionless.

Lin An followed Aris' gaze and saw a silver ring on the ground.

This is……

Lin An immediately remembered.

When the rabbit appeared, he brought this ring with him, but because Saixien and his party were present, Lin An didn't dare to see what it was, so he stuffed it into his pocket.

Later, due to various dangers, he almost forgot about the ring. The sound of something falling just now should be the ring falling out of his clothes.

Seeing this ring now, Lin An immediately recognized it. It was the ring that Aris picked up at home at that time. If he guessed correctly, this ring should have been left by his family.

Did Aris recognize the ring?

Lin An didn't know what happened to Aris, but what was certain was that Aris didn't know him at all now.If you can wake up, of course it is the best.

Lin An managed to get dressed, and saw that Aris had sat up.

His face was full of confusion, and the wildness and madness in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by inexplicable doubts.

Lin An still didn't dare to approach him, and stood not far away, looking at Aris.

Aris tilted his head, as if thinking about something.

Lin An sweated, praying for Aris to return to normal soon.

Otherwise, he would really be tossed to death.

After a long time, Aris finally spoke, looked at the ring and said word by word: "Mom?"

After speaking, he shook his head slightly, and slowly turned his head to Lin An.

The moment Lin An met Aris' eyes, Lin An immediately let go of the heart he had been holding.

The look in Aris' eyes was clear, and it was obvious that he had returned to normal.

Lin An asked, "Do you know me?"

Aris' face turned red, as if he had just realized what happened just now.In the previous relationship between the two, Aris had never shown Lin An a good face, and this was the first time he showed such an expression suitable for his age.

Aris turned his head away awkwardly, picked up the ring and put it on his finger.

The entire slender neck became red.

Lin An laughed secretly, walked over and handed the outermost robe to Aris.

The temperature in the cave was a bit low, and Aris was not wearing anything, so he caught cold easily.

Although what happened just now, Lin An didn't take it too seriously.One of the reasons is that this should not be out of Aris' original intention, and the second reason is that he will have a relationship with Aris sooner or later to complete the task.

Without looking back, Aris took the robe and put it on.

He stood up and said something very quietly.

Aris spoke very fast and in such a low voice that Lin An couldn't hear clearly at all.

Lin An looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

Aris' face was sullen, and his voice was still not loud, but it was very blunt, as if forcing out a sentence: "I'm sorry."

Still a child after all.

Lin An smiled slightly: "It's okay. Are you aware of our current situation?"

Aris didn't want to mention what happened just now, he was so thin-skinned that he even forced out the word "sorry".Hearing Lin An's words, he immediately nodded and said, "I know, I was influenced just now, that's why..." He paused, obviously embarrassed, "That's why, I know everything about it before."

"What's going on?" Lin An frowned slightly.

Aris stood beside him, and said a little uncomfortable: "Because of the soul gem. I was affected by the soul gem just now..."

"That stone is the soul gem?" Lin An looked at the stone on the stone platform.

Aris nodded.

Lin An didn't expect that the stone turned out to be the soul gem, but didn't it mean that the soul gem would not have a bad effect?Why would Aris become like that?

Aris seemed to see his doubts, and explained: "The soul gem is not the same as in the legend. I also heard what my father said."

Lin An looked at Aris, waiting for his explanation.

Aris turned his head uncomfortably, and continued speaking without any ups and downs in his voice.

"The soul gem contains exuberant life force, but it is not completely harmless as the legend says. Excessive vitality makes the soul gem a huge temptation for life, and at the same time, this temptation will also make the weak-willed The creatures fall into endless hallucinations." Aris's face is rare, a little serious, "so the creatures near the soul gem often have unpredictable mutations due to the influence of the power of the soul gem. Hallucinations, and habits will also change drastically. If you fall into a good hallucination, it will not cause any harm, but the hallucinations that many creatures fall into often make creatures cruel and bloodthirsty."

Lin An digested what Aris said before asking, "Do you think the Pope knows the true function of the soul gem?"

"I don't know either." Aris shook his head, "My parents told me all this."

When mentioning his parents, Aris' expression immediately turned a little ugly.

But soon, Aris returned to his usual indifferent appearance: "You know the history of the last generation, right?"

"Dated history?" Lin An asked back.

Aris glanced at Lin An in surprise, but didn't say too much nonsense: "Before human beings became the masters of the continent, there was a history that was said to be very prosperous and prosperous. When this history reached its peak, it suddenly withered. Later, the power of the mainland was torn apart, and after a long war, the current pattern was formed. And the legend of my mother's family is that this prosperous history withered because of the soul gem."

"Some magicians discovered soul gems. After realizing the great benefits of soul gems for improving magic, they began to mine soul gems in large quantities. However, they did not expect that the outflow of a large number of soul gems caused various biological mutations in various parts of the continent. Countless unheard-of magical creatures continue to appear, impacting the rule of intelligent creatures. By the time people discover the negative effects of the soul gem, it is already too late. Many magicians have also fallen into the hallucinatory influence of the soul gem."

"People made up their minds to destroy all soul gems, but at that time almost all civilizations were almost completely destroyed by war and magical creatures. In the end, intelligent creatures destroyed all soul gems, but civilization was also annihilated, and the mainland ushered in The darkest era of melee." Aris obviously couldn't empathize, and his tone did not change in the process of telling, "The dominant intelligent creature at that time was the orc, and what no one knew was that there was an orc at that time because of a momentary greed. He didn't hand over a small piece of soul gem in his hand, but hid it in the basement of a temple. After thousands of years, the temple sank into the ground, and the descendants of this orc found the place of the temple. They dug out the corridor and entered the temple, but before taking out the gems, fear overcame their thirst for power, so they didn't take out the gems, but re-sealed the gate."

"...Then you..." Lin An had more or less guessed why Aris knew these things.

Aris nodded calmly: "My mother is the descendant of that orc."

When Aris was born, he was not in the form of an orc, but in the form of a beast.

This is also very rare among orcs, a child in the form of a pure beast, not to mention that he is a hybrid of orcs and humans.

— Few atavisms occurred to him.He will not be able to turn into a human being for the rest of his life, he can only live for four or five years like an ordinary rabbit, and then die because his lifespan is exhausted.

In order to make Aris become a human and live longer, Aris' parents prepared to use the power of the soul gem.According to the last words of the ancestors of Aris and the method of resisting the soul gem left behind, they successfully found the soul gem, and then removed a small fragment, using the power in the fragment to turn Aris into a human and be able to learn magic.And such a small fragment will not make Aris fall into hallucinations.

At that time, the gemstone that Aris carried around his neck was a small fragment of the soul gem, and it was precisely because the soul gem exhausted its power to protect him that he hid from Saixien's sword.But because he lost the power of the soul gem, he turned into a rabbit.

Aris was able to wake up smoothly just now, probably because he had been in contact with the soul gem for too long, so he had a certain resistance, and because he saw his mother's ring, he regained consciousness smoothly.Otherwise, he might be like that forever.

After hearing what Aris said, Lin An immediately said, "We can't let the pope get the soul gem."

It's not how noble Lin An is, but if the Pope falls into hallucinations and attacks everyone, and the Soul Gem improves his magic, I'm afraid neither he nor Aris can get out alive.

And according to Aris' words, anyone who is close to the soul gem is likely to be affected.But now Lin An is not greeted at all, and he doesn't know it's because he is a time traveler.Or because he is determined.

Aris agreed with Lin An rarely, and nodded.

****

The pope frowned deeply.

They have been searching for a long time, but they still haven't found the mechanism.Moreover, the buildings here have been blessed with unknown magic, and they have no way to break the walls.

Where will it be?

The Pope walked to the wall and looked up at the wall with various patterns drawn with gold powder.

The pope tried to stand in front of the wall according to Lin An's posture at that time, leaning his back against it.

The walls didn't move at all.

He moved his steps carefully, feeling the movement under his feet.

And the height of the back is also slowly adjusted according to the impression of Lin An's height.

Just when his right shoulder was leaning against the lower edge of a wall brick, he suddenly felt that a floor brick under his feet was slightly loose.The change in the floor tiles was very small, but as a great magician with keen mental power, the Pope noticed it immediately.

Almost without thinking, the pope put his foot on the tile.

With a click, the wall behind slowly cracked.

The Pope turned around, scratched the lower edge of the floor tile with his hand, and drew it with the tip of his toe.

"These two places are organs, let's go in one by one."

No wonder he hadn't noticed it before, if his feet weren't right next to that floor tile just now, he wouldn't have noticed the movement.

A smile appeared on the corner of the pope's lips. It seemed that the soul gem might really be here, and it was not in vain for him to arrest the magician and question him repeatedly.

A group of people jumped in once, and Saixien hesitated for a moment, then jumped in too.
