Chapter 1620 The Otherworldly Ghosts Are Here Too
Abandoning one's physical form and running away is a dangerous thing, which means that a body that can carry one's consciousness must be found immediately. However, the ghost guide only has a wisp of consciousness left and is unable to find a body. There is no empty body nearby for it to possess, so it can only ask Ang for help.
It thought Ang was an otherworldly ghost, and that the fluctuation of his consciousness was one it had seen before, so it contacted him without any precautions.
The next moment, Ang stuffed it into a folded sheet, allowing its consciousness to reside there. But just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he discovered that there was a consciousness imprint inside the folded sheet, which was merging with its consciousness.
"This...this is?" The ghost guide was incredulous, thinking he was seeing things.
It never expected that after the Ranger saved it, it would leave a mental imprint on it. What was the Ranger trying to do? Was it afraid that it would be trapped in a mental cage like before, so it established a mental connection in advance to make it easier to be rescued?
It subconsciously tried to think positively because it couldn't believe that the Ghost Wanderer would establish a conscious connection with it. This was something every guide dreamed of. How could such a great thing have fallen into its lap?
The Ghost Wanderer is a very mysterious being. Although these guides can summon him to attack the planet, it is impossible for them to even speak to him. The time when the other party snorted at it was already a rare interaction.
To be honest, the Ghost Guide was secretly pleased: The Wanderer snorted at me, did you?
Unexpectedly, an even bigger surprise followed. Not only did the Wanderer save it, but he also established a mental connection with it. Doesn't this mean that I have become a descendant of the Wanderer?
When some ghost guides call upon the wanderers, perhaps because the distance is too far or their faith is not sincere, they cannot be summoned. If they could establish a conscious connection with the wanderers themselves, wouldn't they be able to summon them without ever failing?
These thoughts flashed through the Ghost Guide's mind, then Ang transferred them to his consciousness space, where Negris and the others were stunned: "Has this guy misunderstood something? Ang imprinted a consciousness mark on it, why is it so excited?"
Anthony could understand this sentiment and said with a smile, "It was originally a vagrant, but now it has suddenly been taken in as a knight by a nobleman. Although it has lost its freedom, its status is different."
Negris and the others understood this analogy immediately. In fact, it was even more extreme, equivalent to a priest of the Church of Light becoming a divine messenger, a position below the gods and above all living beings.
“Since that’s what it thinks, then you shouldn’t take action directly, sir. Let me handle it,” Anthony said.
The original plan was to search its memories directly after imprinting the mark, but since it thought that way, it couldn't be wasted. After all, soul searching is a one-time thing, but keeping it would give us an extra person who is familiar with otherworldly ghosts and the void.
After the Ghost Guide regained its form, Anthony appeared, startling the Ghost Guide: "Who's there!"
"Hello, I'm Anthony. Do you have a name?" Anthony asked coldly.
The ghost guide eyed Anthony suspiciously, the vague connection in its consciousness making it understand that it shared the same subordinate relationship with the Anthony before it.
"Are you also a subject of Lord Wanderer?" the ghost guide asked tentatively.
Anthony said in a calm tone, "Yes, Lord Wanderer arranged for me to... show you around? I'm not sure if that's what he meant. Do you have a name?"
Anthony's hesitation immediately dispelled all the Ghost Guide's doubts, as it felt the same way.
The wanderer is too difficult to deal with, just like a helpless believer who can never get a response from the gods and can only guess. Anthony's so-called "help him along" is probably also a guess.
“You can call me…” The Ghost Guide pondered for a moment, then said, “Daliso, a name I used a long time ago.”
Anthony's heart skipped a beat: "A long time ago? You were...?"
Anthony had long noticed that this ghost guide's language was very 'rich,' using words like 'damn,' 'fortunately,' 'excessive,' and 'atmosphere,' all of which were very dimensional words.
There is birth and death, and only then can there be "those who deserve to die"; there is wind and air, and only then can there be "air". Where is the wind in the void? How could a ghost guide die?
Every word is related to its environment, so Anthony strongly suspects that the other person was once a being from another dimension.
“I used to be a human,” Daliso said.
Anthony was shocked, truly shocked. He had guessed the other party might be a dimensional being, but he never expected it to be a human? A human could become a ghost guide?
He originally thought that even if they were beings from another plane, they should at least be descendants of dragons, or bloodlines left by ancient dragons from different timelines. He never considered the possibility of them being human.
How could a human with a mere hundred-year lifespan possibly become a ghost guide?
"How did you become what you are now?" Anthony asked, puzzled.
Dariso said, "When I was still human, I often heard a voice that guided me to constantly change my life form, and eventually I became what I am now."
"That's it? Nothing else?" Anthony asked, puzzled.
Isn't this the Chosen One? Hearing God's voice out of nowhere, then gradually mastering God's power, and finally becoming God's messenger. How is becoming a ghost guide the same as becoming God's messenger?
“Yes, that’s it. Oh, and also, I slept for a long time after leaving this plane. When I woke up, I had completely transformed into a ghost. What about you?” Daliso said.
“Me too, I am human.” With that, Anthony materialized a human form and continued, “However, I have always followed the Master and have never experienced a slumber. My form was given to me by the Master.”
"Ah? Your form was bestowed upon you by the Lord? Then you are a descendant of the Wanderer. Please... take good care of me in the future." Daliso awkwardly picked up the polite words he used when he was still human.
“Hehe, you are now too. Your form was also bestowed upon you by the adults,” Anthony said.
Daliso immediately realized what was happening and felt a surge of affection: "Yes, yes, we are both descendants of the Master. Luckily, the Master saved us this time, otherwise I would have been dead. By the way, I wonder what the Master likes? I would like to give you something to express my gratitude."
“No need. The things you can produce are unnecessary for the master. The Star Soul you gave him before is also useless to him. He only spared your punishment because of your good attitude and even paid more attention to you for a while. You're lucky to be protected after causing trouble.” Anthony laughed.
After chatting for a while, I quickly became familiar with Daliso and unknowingly extracted a lot of information from him.
Meanwhile, Lania stared at her empty mental cage, where divine light flickered rapidly. If translated, it would probably take tens of thousands of words, but it boiled down to one thing: Where is the Guide? Where is the Ghost Guide? Where did it go? Are you all blind? Standing there, the enemy has escaped and you don't even notice…
Karani only replied with one sentence, and Rania shut up: "Lord Rania, the fact that it could escape from your mind's cage can only mean that the Otherworldly Ghost is here too."
