Chapter 96 Death and Reincarnation
"The guests have arrived, shouldn't we order some good wine?" Jiu Chonglou said meaningfully, his gaze lingering on the wine glasses in the broken glass cabinet.
Red Eyes closely resembles the stereotypical vampire, with pale skin, scarlet eyes, handsome appearance, and aristocratic air, making him irresistible to human women.
Few human women could refuse his request to play a game with them, and for the loser to drink a glass of wine.
Especially when playing games with red-eyed opponents, it's always a 50/50 chance, so you don't have to worry about constantly losing.
The wine glasses on the glass cabinet are equipped with rules such as "the winner's blood will automatically transfer to the wine glass until the glass is full" and "when the blood is placed in the wine glass, its original aroma will turn into a mellow wine aroma".
For Red-Eye, whether a human drinks his own blood or he drinks a human's blood, he can achieve the goal of killing, only the process is relatively more interesting and romantic.
Red Eyes chuckled dryly, having no doubt that Jiu Chonglou was setting a trap for him: "You wouldn't even look at my blood, so why not get some human blood instead?"
After saying that, he bent down and took out a bottle of red wine from a hidden compartment under the bar, and poured wine for the two of them attentively.
After pouring the wine, Hongyan noticed that his breathless subordinate not only dared to remain but also looked at him with obvious surprise. Enraged, he glared at him and snapped, "Get out of here! Can't you see I have important business to discuss with our distinguished guest?! Put up a 'No Entry' sign when you leave!"
Watching his men leave, the man's red eyes softened again, and he rubbed his hands together: "May I ask what brings you two here?"
As he spoke, Hongyan couldn't help but glance at Ji Mo a few more times, secretly memorizing his face.
Sanchuan's a newcomer? Tsk, to be taken under this crazy woman's wing, he's probably a key talent being groomed; I'll have to remember another face.
"We want information about the Church of Death." Seeing the red-eyed man's troubled expression, Jiu Chonglou smiled wryly. "Don't tell me you don't know. Before you became a monster, your race was already following the pillar of [Death]."
It's easy to distinguish between original monsters and monsters that have been transformed into monsters; you can roughly tell by looking at their similarity to humans.
Before becoming a monster, Red Eyes was indeed a vampire.
All native races possessing immortality are believers in death.
"Hiss, the Church of Death, huh? I used to be one of its followers..." Red Eyes carefully observed Jiu Chonglou's expression, cautiously finishing the sentence, "But that was before. I left a long time ago, really! That church doesn't make money, and it keeps asking me to put money into bottomless pit projects. What's the point of me staying!"
Little did they know, this was exactly the result they wanted.
Jiu Chonglou glanced at Ji Mo, gesturing for him to continue asking.
"What projects have you invested in?" Ji Mo asked casually.
"They really are mentoring newcomers." Red Eyes noticed their subtle actions and didn't dare to neglect Ji Mo: "Well, they're making some things related to death to offer as a sacrifice, hoping for some kind of response."
"Who responded to you?" Ji Mo asked casually. "Was it the pillar god [Death], or the death god you created?"
Red Eyes looked at Ji Mo with surprise, then couldn't help but glance at Jiu Chonglou, whom she was truly afraid of, only to find that she was also silent, as if she had tacitly agreed to Ji Mo's question.
The story that Jiu Chonglou told Chen Zhuzhu and others was missing the whereabouts of the pillar gods of [Life] and [Death], but the version he told Ji Mo separately included this.
Before the eclipse occurs, there is no concept of reincarnation.
Ordinary people's souls dissipate automatically after death, while the souls of extraordinary people remain in the world after death, either waiting for their own souls to dissipate or seeking a host.
The so-called undead are beings whose bodies have lost their vitality, yet they can still continue to move.
The undead believe that if it weren't for the mercy of death, they should have died long ago, instead of being able to continue living a normal life in their immortalized bodies.
Since the arrival of the Void Eclipse, Death has come to understand the concept of reincarnation and has been influenced by the methods of salvation of Space and Time. It has also made a way to liberate itself and create opportunities for future generations.
[Death] is dead, but all living beings have entered into reincarnation.
But unlike the spectacular death of [Space], [Death] was silent and unnoticed. Apart from a few gods who were informed in advance, almost no one knew of His departure.
Unlike the other three pillar gods, Death has always been a silent and taciturn figure; whether you believe or not, He doesn't care.
His death was kept secret all along.
From the very beginning, Ji Mo distinguished the pillar of "death" from the death god who cursed him.
As for sentient beings gaining the power of reincarnation out of thin air?
In the face of a flood of different and advanced information at the time, could you really tell whether reincarnation never existed, or whether the rumor that the soul lingers in the human world after death was not an isolated case?
Through word of mouth, many people believe that reincarnation is a concept that has always existed in this world.
Red-Eyes is an example of the mysterious death of a pillar of death who was unaware of the circumstances, so after his initial surprise, he was indifferent and spoke frankly:
"Yes, the Church of Death is trying to create an entity that can replace the pillar of 'Death.' After all, that one has never responded to believers, whether in the past or present. Anyway, back then everyone was reaping huge profits from the erosion, trying to get the information they needed. Why can't we get the god-making information we want from it?"
Ji Mo and Jiu Chonglou exchanged a glance, neither of them believing that the red eyes were just an act.
The idea of creating a Grim Reaper who grants bizarre reincarnation opportunities is certainly not something worth hiding.
The person in contact with Red Eyes just said they had already withdrawn from that position...
"When you left, was the main purpose of the project to create the Grim Reaper still to promote bizarre and normal deaths?" Jiu Chonglou asked suspiciously.
Although the fact that Red Eye is the most outstanding merchant, given that there is almost no demand for trade in the world of rules, is somewhat exaggerated in terms of his strangeness, it still proves that he is more cunning and treacherous than the average person.
"They actually made it?" Red Eyes sensed something was wrong and blurted out, "Wait a minute, if they made it and there were successful reincarnation cases, they would have been talking about it a lot already... Wait, even if it really worked, you can reincarnate, so what are you looking for that thing for...?"
As the red-eyed man gradually noticed something strange, the horror in his eyes grew increasingly palpable.
Although the people at Sanchuan Tailor Shop are proud and arrogant, they rarely cause trouble. At most, they might be a little unpleasant when speaking directly.
The fact that someone dares to talk about this means that there must be some clues or speculation involved.
"Hiss, don't tell me the Church used Death as a divine wind to crash into the mortal realm..."
In the end, Red Eyes' voice was so soft it was almost negligible.
He knew the people at the Sanchuan Tailor Shop all too well; they always had the saying "cut the weeds and wipe them out at the root." If it really happened, even he, a former follower, wouldn't be able to escape.
"Is it too late for me to take back what I said about being a former believer?"
"It depends on the information you provide."
