Chapter 298 - I’m Finally Back!
Chapter 298: I’m Finally Back!
Gerald was slightly stunned.
Mike had said that this Soul Stone could help the centaurs prosper.
In fact, it was true. After receiving the protection of this Soul Stone, the centaurs had always been very logical.
After leaving Phineas and the others, they soon found a new home. Although they always had to guard against the stone giants’ attacks, and sometimes the centaurs were injured, they always won.
Basically, they had successfully obtained the blessing of the Soul Stone. Although he was reluctant to part with it, this Soul Stone was originally given to them by Lord F*ck. Now, it was reasonable for Lord F*ck to want to take it back
Gerald did not hesitate and took out the Soul Stone to give Mike. However, when he saw the Soul Stone, Mike was stunned.
“Wait, why is this Soul Stone different from when I gave it to you?”
The reason why Mike said that was because this Soul Stone was not like an ordinary blue stone. It was a stone that now emitted a faint blue light.
Just like… When Ulysses Sabrina took out the Soul Stone for the first time!
Although it was not that dazzling, the Soul Stone indeed emitted a faint light now.
What on Earth was going on?!
Hearing Mike’s surprised tone, Gerald touched scratched his head in confusion as he spoke.
“To be honest, I wanted to ask you about this.
“After we obtained the other half of the Soul Stone, it would brighten up every once in a while.
“During this period of time, this Soul Stone became brighter and brighter. Unknowingly, it reached this point of brightness.
“Isn’t this a normal phenomenon?”
“…”
Mike fell silent. This Soul Stone was originally obtained from Ulysses Sabrina. No, to be precise, it was accidentally brought over by him after he accidentally came to this world.
He knew almost nothing about this Soul Stone. He only knew that this Soul Stone had a powerful curse power.
Wait, a curse?
Mike seemed to have remembered something. He could not help but look at Gerald and ask,
“Recently… have you been feeling uncomfortable or… very weak?”
Gerald was also slightly stunned when he heard that.
“This… not at all!
“Not only have I not become weak, I even feel that I’ve gotten stronger.
“Isn’t this the blessing of the Soul Stone?”
“…”
Mike fell silent again.
He remembered something. In the game world, Ulysses Sabrina seemed to have said that she snatched the Soul Stone for the sake of obtaining power.
So now, Gerald felt that it was reasonable for him to become stronger.
Many questions remained.
Why did Gerald’s Soul Stone become brighter and brighter, but the Soul Stone in Phineas’s hand was dull and no different from an ordinary stone?
What was the difference between them?
As he pondered about it, Mike saw some injured centaurs that stood around him from the corner of his eye. In an instant, Mike’s lightbulb turned on, and he realized something.
The difference was that Gerald and the others had been fighting!
Or… they had been killing!
That was why Gerald had become strong.
So that means… Mike squinted at the Soul Stone in Gerald’s hand, and he had a guess. This Soul Stone was probably a kind of ominous thing that specialized in harvesting lives to obtain power.
That was why Ulysses Sabrina got such a curse.
Thinking of this, Mike took out the other half of the Soul Stone from Phineas. The Soul Stone from Phineas was no different from an ordinary blue stone when he got it. Now, it actually gave off a faint glow. It was as if it had a connection with the half Soul Stone in Gerald’s hand.
“This is…”
Gerald looked at the halved Soul Stone in Lord F*ck’s hand and was slightly stunned.
“This is what I took from Phineas.
“I might have to go back next.
“When I go back, I hope you can send this halved Soul Stone back on my behalf.”
Hearing this, Gerald revealed a troubled expression.
Previously, he had an ugly fight with Phineas, and the both of them parted on an unhappy note. Now, asking Gerald to send something back was indeed a bit difficult for him. However, he couldn’t refuse Lord F*ck’s request. After all, he was the benefactor of the entire centaur race.
If it wasn’t for Lord F*ck, the centaur race would never have learned how to resist.
“Alright, I’ll…”
“No need, leave this to me.”
Timus suddenly spoke. Everyone looked at Timus, and Timus grinned.
“You and village Chief Phineas had a big fight. It might be a little awkward for you to go back. I’ll send it back”
Hearing Timus’s words, Gerald heaved a sigh of relief and showed gratitude in his eyes.
Mike also nodded seriously.
After resolving this matter, he would have no worries.
It was time to go back!
Mike took a deep breath, looked at Gerald, and said, “Next, I’m going to put these two Soul Stones together, and then… maybe something magical will happen…”
“The power to freeze time?” Timus subconsciously followed up.
“… shut up and be serious.”
Mike also felt a little awkward after Timus said that. The scene of him not disappearing after saying goodbye to Phineas and the others appeared in his mind again.
That scene… was really too awkward!
Therefore, this time, Mike did not say goodbye to Gerald and the others. Instead, he began with an explanation.
“In short, magical things may happen, or nothing may happen.
“We’ll know what will happen after we try.
“If something magical happens, then Timus will bring this halved Soul Stone back to Phineas.
“If it doesn’t happen… We’ll see.”
Having said that, Mike raised his hand again and pieced together the Soul Stones.
Although Gerald did not know what would happen next, he nervously swallowed his saliva.
The two Soul Stones became brighter and brighter as Mike connected them. As he did that, everyone subconsciously held their breath and became nervous.
When the two half Soul Stones touched each other, a strong light shot out from the joint.
The entire world turned blue…
Mike was stimulated by the strong light and closed his eyes, unable to open them for a long time.
When he opened them again, he found that he had returned to the Violet Valley.
Mike looked at Ulysses Sabrina, who was stunned, and his body trembled slightly.
‘Am I finally back?!’ he thought to himself.
