Plop!!
Like a chair being kicked over.
The boy fell heavily to the floor.
He covered his chest, unable to breathe, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
I felt my soul leaving my heavy body and wandering in the dark void.
At the end of the endless darkness, two points of light flickered.
Like a moth flying towards a flame, the boy's soul involuntarily moved closer to the glow.
When I got closer, I found that there were two flashing portals, facing each other and suspended in the air.
The boy knew by intuition that the door on the left led to the world of warlocks where he was born and raised.
Once you enter that door, you will regain consciousness and continue to live a normal life.
The door on the right leads to an unknown world.
And the unknown is often accompanied by huge risks!
Turn left and return to your familiar life, comfortable but boring.
Go right and explore a strange new world, exciting but thrilling.
The boy stood between the two doors, hesitating.
At this moment, he vaguely felt a faint soul fluctuation coming from the door on the right.
In that unknown world, it seemed that someone was asking for help from himself.
Reason told him that he should not pay attention to the person calling for help. After all, they were strangers and his ability was limited.
From a more malicious perspective, perhaps it was a sealed evil demon, disguised as a person seeking help, using people's sympathy to set a trap.
However, for some reason, the boy felt that the faint soul was very familiar, as if it was a part of himself.
Refusing to call for help is tantamount to refusing self-salvation.
Reason and impulse are in fierce conflict.
After all, young people are very curious.
After hesitating for a while, the boy finally made up his mind.
He gritted his teeth and resolutely rushed into the glowing door on the right.
…
Panthers Tavern.
In a bedroom on the second floor.
The figure of the boy who fainted on the floor gradually faded away.
Finally it disappeared in a hazy light and shadow.
At the same time, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Crunch——
The girl in an apron pushed the door open and walked in.
"Alan? Alan?"
"Strange, I just got home, how come he disappeared again in the blink of an eye?!"
Looking at the empty room, Kelly's eyes were full of confusion.
…
The world behind the door.
Finger Lakes.
The dock, which has been abandoned for many years, is overgrown with weeds.
Two small boats abandoned by the water were covered with moss.
The calm lake surface suddenly began to ripple.
Accompanied by the sound of splashing water, a figure was swimming in the lake.
Almost instinctively, the boy waded ashore with difficulty and sat down on the pier.
The wind blew over the water, and my wet clothes stuck to my body, which was very uncomfortable.
After sneezing three times in a row, my dizzy head became a little clearer.
Looking around, the scene by the lake seemed strange yet with a sense of déjà vu.
who I am?
Where am I?
The boy looked confused and muttered to himself.
After sitting there for a long time, I gradually came to my senses.
I remembered that my name was Allen Panthers and my home was in Quint Town...
On weekend afternoons, I went to the circus with my classmates to watch a performance.
The lucky winner was a lollipop.
Allen remembers sitting in the back of the theater, watching the circus with a lollipop in his mouth.
For some reason , I suddenly felt dizzy.
Suspecting that he had a cold, he hurriedly left the theater, planning to go home to drink some medicine and rest.
On the way home, the dizziness became more and more intense.
He managed to stay awake and ran all the way home.
He supported himself and climbed up to the second floor and walked into his bedroom.
The moment my nerves relaxed, I fell to the floor.
After that, two doors of light were seen in the dark.
I chose the door that leads to another world.
After entering, I lost consciousness.
When I regained consciousness, I was already at the shore of an unfamiliar lake.
Is it strange?
The young man shook his head slightly, his brows furrowed.
"If this is a different world, why do I know that this body of water is called the Finger Lakes and is located outside the town of Con?"
The boy pondered silently, trying hard to retrieve the fragments of his memory.
That’s right!
Alan remembered.
Before he became Alan Panthers, he lived in this town for twelve years, including eight years of college.
After graduating with a Ph.D., I followed my supervisor to join a research institute affiliated with a famous pharmaceutical company.
Two years later, an explosion occurred in the laboratory.
Unfortunately, I was involved in it...
He thought he was dead, but unexpectedly his soul traveled to the world of warlocks, possessed the body of a poisoned and dying boy, and merged with the other's soul.
Start a new life in the world of warlocks as Alan Panthers.
Parents, sister, warlock bloodline...
Warlock College, Beast Cult, Silver Moon Monastery...
Origin City, Holy Demon Ancestor Court, Bloodline Galaxy ...
Scenes of memory flashed back in my mind.
Alan, the time traveler, finally remembered!
He went deep into the Bloodline Galaxy to find and try to fuse the origin of the Original Titan.
After entering the origin space, I returned to the moment when I was poisoned and on the verge of death...
However, unlike the real experience, this time it was not the native boy from the world of the soul possessing the sorcerer from the earth, but quite the opposite...
The native boy traveled back to Earth and appeared on the outskirts of another town, Kang, where Alan once lived.
The more Alan thought about it, the more headache he felt, and his thoughts became more confused.
The problem now is that there are three "Alans" at the same time.
The first one is a twelve-year-old boy from the warlock world, let’s temporarily name him “Young Alan”.
The second one is a young scientific research dog living on Earth, let’s temporarily name him “Dr. Allen”.
The third and most complicated one...
It is the awareness of one’s own existence at this moment.
This is the product of Dr. Allen's experimental accident, his soul traveling to another world, and merging with the young Allen.
Now, this consciousness has traveled back to Earth along with the body of the young Alan.
How to explain the three Allens existing in this world at the same time?
For a moment, he thought of the theories of Freud and Lacan.
Then I quickly woke up and reminded myself not to complicate simple issues.
The key to the problem is that the world he lives in is neither the warlock world nor the earth.
But it is the original space of the Ancestral Titan!
Relying on his powerful strength, the First Titan extracted materials from his memory and pieced together this seemingly real world.
Essentially, this is a fictional world, like the setting in a novel.
"Young Allen" and "Dr. Allen" in this fictional world are both fictional characters derived from some real experiences, just like the "I" in an autobiographical novel.
When Conan Doyle opened "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", would he equate the first-person narrator "I" - John Watson - with himself in real life?
This is patently absurd.
Thinking in this way, Alan no longer worried about his self-awareness and focused on thinking about his current situation.
Suppressed by the bloodline of the First Titan, the warlock's level was reduced to zero.
Alan has gotten used to it and is not surprised by it.
However, when he tried to open the system page to check his status, the calmness on his face was replaced by astonishment, as if he had been hit on the head!
Unable to open the system panel!
Alan once entered the origin space of the ancestor Leviathan and the ancestor Behemoth. He was also suppressed by his bloodline and lost his warlock level, but his Taotie system was preserved.
This time it was unexpected ...
The Taotie system actually disappeared!
Alan picked up a pebble and clenched it tightly.
Use this to assess your current strength attributes.
Then stand up and sprint at full speed along the lakeshore!
Use this to assess your current agility attributes.
After multiple tests, the average conclusion is...
Physical strength 15, Agility 15, Spirit? ?
Spiritual attributes are not convenient to test at present.
The physique and agility attributes are the same as when you first crossed over to the warlock world.
That is the original attribute of the young Alan Panthers.
From this we can see that the Taotie system is not unable to be displayed, but it does not exist in his current body.
Abilities related to the Taotie system, including potential and additional attributes gained from eating special ingredients, also disappeared.
Alan felt a lot of pressure.
The previous two fusions of the ancestor's origin were all due to the supermodel attributes of the Taotie system, which enabled him to kill all enemies and crush everything.
Therefore, he always felt that integrating the origin of the ancestor was not as difficult as Yuan Tianguang said.
It was not until this moment, when he lost the Taotie system that had always accompanied him and his greatest reliance, that he suddenly realized how fragile he was in the Origin Space.
A blessing in disguise.
The "source of annihilation" from the Leviathan ancestor and the "source of energy" from the Behemoth ancestor were both preserved.
The corresponding "source of divine power" is also still alive.
This means that Alan still has immunity to seven types of spells: poison, water, fire, electricity, acid, cold, and wind (sound waves), and can simulate seven types of spells through the 9th-ring "Prayer".
Unfortunately, the warlock's level has been reset to zero and the mana pool has been closed.
Without magic, even if you have the "magic of prayer", it is still useless.
Alan managed to pull himself together.
Try to open the over-limit area.
The bad news is that without the Taotie origin and the warlock level, the super-limit field has been greatly reduced.
The black ball hovering above his head transformed into a colorful ball of light.
Inside the colorful ball of light, an Ouroboros can be vaguely seen.
There are only two super-limit ones, which are rewards from the fusion of the ancestor Leviathan and the origin of Behemoth.
The radiation radius of the field has been reduced from the original 90 kilometers to only 1000 meters.
Severe shrinkage, but ok.
Alan sat by the bridge and continued to think.
Taotie system, why did it mysteriously disappear?
Judging from previous experience of integrating the ancestor's origin, the Taotie system and the Taotie origin rooted in the system will not be suppressed by the ancestor's bloodline.
Even if the power of the First Titan is much stronger than that of the First Leviathan and the First Behemoth, this iron rule should not be broken.
If the Taotie system was not taken away by the Ancestral Titan, then where is it?
Alan suddenly thought of a logical problem.
There is another me in this world.
The young researcher who graduated from Cornell University and worked at the Solomon Institute of Biochemistry was myself before I traveled through time.
If Dr. Allen were still alive in this world, then the Taotie system would most likely be in his possession!
The more Allen thought about it, the more he felt that this was true.
The real earth is a world without magic.
The original space where he was located looked like the earth, but the concentration of magic power here was very high!
Comparable to the Warlock World!
Alan closed his eyes and tried to meditate.
As expected, a galaxy of blood appeared before my eyes!
On this magically modified earth, you can practice ancestral meditation and reawaken the warlock bloodline!
Alan let out a sigh.
Then, I sensed a subtle signal in my mind.
That was a familiar soul fluctuation.
It seemed like someone was calling for help from a faraway place.
Alan immediately thought that it was because he heard this call that he chose the portal on the right and came here.
If nothing unexpected happens, the person who sent out the call for help through soul fluctuations is his other self in this world - Dr. Allen!
Only two similar souls can resonate with each other!
To be more precise, both myself and Dr. Allen are incomplete souls now, and both are eager to get closer to each other.
Allen vaguely felt that by finding Dr. Allen and completing his soul, he would be able to get the Taotie system back and solve all the mysteries of this world!
However, it is not easy to do this.
Alan's mental strength is too weak now. He can only sense the existence of another self, but cannot know the other's exact location.
You must reawaken the warlock's bloodline, improve your own rank, and enhance your spiritual attributes in order to determine the direction more accurately!
But before that, Alan had to find a way to fill his stomach and find a place where he could sleep peacefully.
…
Alan walked along the pier to where the boat was moored.
I want to see if there are any fishing rods or other tools in the cabin.
As if sensing the footsteps, the moss-covered boat suddenly began to shake.
Crash...
The water splashed and a big fish swam out from under the boat.
I don’t know if it was caused by nuclear radiation or some kind of hormone, but it looks like a carp, but its body is bigger than a crocodile!
Alan stopped and stared at the big fish, slightly surprised, but not scared.
After traveling to the world of warlocks for so many years, I have seen too many monsters that are larger and weirder than this, so I am no longer surprised.
Alan walked lightly back to the shore.
A big fish in the water waved its tail fin and chased after it.
Alan picked up a stone on the spot, aimed at the big fish's head, and threw it out with all his strength.
puff!
The stone hit the fish's head.
Sadly, no noticeable damage was caused.
Alan was stunned for a moment, feeling depressed.
Now, my strength attribute is only 15 points.
It is too unrealistic to think that you can kill a monster the size of a crocodile by throwing stones.
While he was thinking about countermeasures...
The strange fish in the water seemed to be angered by his aggressive behavior. It suddenly raised its head out of the water and glared at him fiercely.
The moment his eyes made contact with the strange fish, Alan felt a strange mental fluctuation, like a sharp blade piercing into his mind!
In the past, this level of mental attack would not have had any effect on him.
Unfortunately, my level is now zero and my mental attributes are pitifully weak.
In an instant, Alan felt a black screen in front of his eyes and a splitting headache.
My consciousness was blurry and my legs were out of control.
With a splash, he fell into the lake.
The cold lake water flooded over him, choking him and making him cough.
As soon as I woke up, I saw a strange fish breaking through the waves.
With his mouth wide open, his fangs and sharp teeth quickly enlarged before his eyes!
Phew!
Blood splatters!
The indescribable pain devoured the last bit of consciousness.
…
Astral world.
In the vast void, the blood galaxy flows quietly.
Deep in the galaxy.
The tall and handsome young man was sitting cross-legged in meditation, trying to integrate the essence of the original Titan.
A look of pain suddenly appeared on the young man's face.
The years are accelerating on his body.
Smooth skin quickly loses its radiance, becomes sagging, and covered with wrinkles and age spots.
The originally jet-black hair turned gray bit by bit until it was completely gray and withered.
In just a few seconds, it seemed as if I had aged a hundred years!
Immediately, the "trigger technique" bestowed upon the young man was activated.
It was as if time had gone back, the wrinkled old skin had become smooth and compact again, and the white hair had turned black again.
The young man regained his youthful and handsome face, and the pain on his face was replaced by a trace of solemnity.
