moment.

A strong light shone from the head, as if a bright flame was lit in the deepest part of the skull.

Helfas let go of his hand and looked at the head carefully.

"It seems, okay?"

"Success?"

Finally, the head moved a little bit, blinked, and then looked at Helfas.

The head is completely transparent, and it looks like a living individual, yet transcends death and life.

Helfas asked him: "Who are you?"

He is trying to test the other person's intelligence through dialogue and then judge the other person's level of intelligence.

The head said: "I am your creation, a head made of shadow crystal."

Helfas said: "You have mastered the message I left in the image crystal?"

This head is currently connected to the largest shadow crystal puppet in Helfas, and it can obtain a huge amount of information from it.

The head did not deny: "Yes, I have mastered a lot."

Helfas was extremely happy, but he didn't show it on his face. He knew that he had truly succeeded. He had created an intelligent individual.

Although it cannot reproduce like normal life, there is no doubt that it is an existence that can think and possesses its own intelligence.

Moreover, this individual quickly mastered a huge amount of knowledge as soon as he was born, which seems to represent his extraordinary potential.

But before Helfas could finish being happy, the head spoke again.

The head turned and looked around: "Why don't you create a complete body for me so that I can walk more easily."

Herfas: "What would you like to do if you could leave?"

He said: "If possible, I hope to gain more knowledge and information, and have a larger body that stores imaging crystals."

Helfas: "Then what?"

The head thought for a while: "Then create more companions and collect more information."

Helfas smiled: "Your desire for information is really greedy. Is it because you were born from the image crystal?"

However, the head gave another answer: "No, it's because I was born from your divine blood, and I am following your desires."

Helfas was stunned for a moment: "What does this mean?"

The head continued: "Isn't your soul always longing for all the secrets in this world? It never gives up and stops to pursue its origin. You already feel that even knowing the secrets of this world may not be enough.

Because your secret may lie beyond this world, even beyond the stars and gods."

Helfas was even more surprised. The other party's intelligence seemed to be beyond his expectation.

"Then what are you going to do?"

He didn't realize at the moment that the problem seemed to be not just the level of intelligence.

The crystal head shone brightly, and it seemed that he had quickly come up with a feasible plan.

He said.

"My master!"

"I will first control all the intelligent species, and then select those who can graft the skulls of the imaging crystals to complete their transformation."

"Then, I will select the races and ethnic groups that reproduce the fastest and grow fastest, give them the greatest living space, and clear out all other ethnic groups that do not reproduce fast enough to make room for these ethnic groups."

"Next, I will use sealed artifacts to accelerate their reproduction and shorten their growth cycle."

"Then I will divide the entire world into regions and create a perfect divine blood production system that does not require anyone to work. They only need to continuously add wisdom seeds and divine blood."

"In this way, you can accumulate strength as quickly as possible and take the initiative before the sleeping gods wake up."

"Next, we will look for those who left this world in the previous era..."

Helfas was completely stunned.

Even before the other party had time to finish speaking, he opened his mouth and spat out a word with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"ah?"

The crystal skull raised its head and looked at its master.

"Great Master, are you satisfied with my plan?"

"If you feel that this method is not fast enough, you can create a more powerful companion, give him more powerful wisdom blood, and a larger body of shadow crystals."

"In this case, it may be able to come up with an answer that is more satisfactory to you."

Helfas didn't know why he suddenly felt an inexplicable panic: "Have you ever thought that this is not what I want, and I don't need to do this."

But the head said very firmly: "No, because your soul is so eager. I will move forward according to your desire. How could you refuse and block it?"

Helfas: "What if I block it?"

He said: "You will not stop it."

Helfas: "What if I must stop it."

He said mechanically: "You won't."

Helfas was silent.

This imaging crystal head-headed life form seems to be an existence that accepts death. It seems that in his world, one is one and two is two, and it can never change.

But the existence of man is different from him. Man can be good and evil at the same time. He can change between one and two at any time.

Sometimes the darkest and most terrifying thoughts may well up in a person's heart, but in the end what he does may be the warmest and kindest actions.

People do have the strongest desires, but sometimes they give up on achieving their desires and choose ways to achieve their desires instead of reaching their goals regardless of risk.

Helfas looked at the life of the crystal skull in front of him, shook his head slowly and said.

"You don't have what it takes to be a complete human being."

He suddenly understood.

He did create an individual with intelligence, but it also seemed to be an incomplete individual with flaws.

He didn't understand what the problem was, but it was obvious that this answer was not what he wanted.

However, in response to his words, the skull life form also responded.

"I was not created for that. I was born to be a tool to realize your ideals and plans. Doesn't it seem like I am the perfect creation that you need most?"

The image crystal skull seems to be very clear and understands everything about itself.

Even better than Helfas.

Helfas: "You stay here first!"

Helfas walked outside, closed the door, and left the head on the table.

As he walked in the empty mansion, he suddenly became a little lost.

"My divine blood?"

"Is there something wrong with my divine blood, or is there something wrong with me?"

But he remembered the scene he had seen in Zi's memory, where he stood tall in the darkness inside the pillar, screaming madly and terrifyingly at Zi.

Maybe the real him has gone crazy long ago and is lost in the boundless darkness.

only.

He forgot.

He came outside the gate and sat cross-legged next to his largest cursed seal puppet again.

The puppet remained motionless, but the images in its body moved like a river.

Helfas looked through the pictures and analysis records about the Tower of Babel. Before, he was searching and looking for information about the demon clan, but now he began to look for information about the extraordinary profession of alchemist.

"Alchemist."

"An extraordinary profession born from desire and personality, using emotion and obsession as its ability to create alchemical tools."

"After the fourth level, plant your obsessions in the Cup of Desire to build an alchemy tower, and let the alchemy tower operate according to your obsessions."

——

Some more time passed.

Helfas finally opened the door again and appeared in front of the crystal head.

And the living entity with only a head seemed to know what Helfas was going to do next. He looked straight at his master, and then sighed.

"I'm a little disappointed," he said.

Helfas stepped forward and said, "You will no longer have the feeling of loss soon, and you won't have to worry about all kinds of things."

But the crystal head said: "No, what I'm disappointed about is not that I have no feelings, but that I can't help you fulfill your desire."
