The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 263 Dawn Is Coming

Hao Ren was curious about what the Living Holy Spirit was. He thought it sounded pretty powerful. Raven 12345 briefly explained it to him: "The Holy Spirit is not a registered establishment of the empire. It is actually a concept in the culture of many mortal races. It refers to Those heroes who have made great achievements have their souls immortalized after death and become heroic spirits. Hilda's two souls seemed to have been catalyzed by my power in the process of merging into one... Well, it might be... It may be some other unexpected situation. Anyway, now she is another life form, a brand new creature, powerful and immortal. Since she was transformed into the Holy Spirit after being resurrected, I call her the Living Holy Spirit."

Hao Ren thought for a moment: "It sounds pretty powerful - but are there any side effects?"

"Theoretically no," Raven 12345's voice did not sound so reassuring, "Theoretically, theoretically, she is not incorporeal now. My power has reshaped her physical form, so she is now It is also real with flesh and blood, just like changing into a divine body. Her original body can be discarded, and this form should allow her to live healthier. If we have to talk about the sequelae... well, because the body is Does it glow and easily scare yourself when you sleep at night?"

As soon as Hao Ren heard Raven 12345 start to talk nonsense, he knew that there was nothing to worry about. He inquired about some details and then hung up the communication. He continued to observe Hilda's strange behavior with great interest. The latter was also extremely curious about her new body. She waved her arm gently: "It doesn't feel inconvenient. It's just as useful as the original body. Since the goddess said it's okay, don't worry. .”

"How should we explain this to the public?" Wim frowned, "Mother's current... well, it's a bit beyond our understanding."

"Then don't explain it yet," Hilda waved her hand. "My personal matters are not important. What is important now is the great migration of Airem. Just let the people focus on this. Anyway, if you don't look carefully, I’m no different from an ordinary elf now, so I really can’t wait until the migration is over before explaining the situation to people.”

Wim nodded, but then the scene inevitably fell into a state of silence. After holding it in for a long time, Lily finally couldn't help but open her mouth to address the most critical issue. She pointed at the medical bay: "... Then how should we deal with this? ?”

Everyone stared at Hilda's "remains". Even a funny person like Data Terminal, who had an unconventional way of thinking, felt that it was really hard to talk about, so they simply chose to shut up and continue to pretend to be a coaster. Hao Ren thought for a long time before hesitatingly said: "Why don't we dig a hole and bury it?"

Lily touched Hilda's "remains" and suddenly shivered: "No, it's still warm, and her heartbeat, pulse and breathing are all there. If she were buried at this time, it would feel like she was buried alive."

Hilda's face was even weirder. She pinched her former body and said, "I should be the first elf to encounter this kind of trouble. I don't know how to deal with my body, and I have to discuss it with other people... Well, Why don't you send it to the material recovery furnace? It's not a waste."

Lily suddenly shivered even more: "That's more embarrassing than being buried alive!"

"What are your elves' funeral habits?" Vivian asked curiously.

"Funeral? We haven't had this custom for thousands of years. Now the dead elves are sent to the recycling furnace, and they are settled into ration points based on quality regardless of high or low," Wim explained, "But Mother... is still alive? , and this body doesn’t look like it’s dead… No, I don’t have enough brains, mother, you can make your own decision.”

Hilda finally showed her head as big as a bucket. Indeed, no one has ever encountered such a pain in the ass since the Erim elves walked upright. It's really a bit embarrassing if you ask her to discuss with others how to dispose of her body. difficulty. Seeing how hard she was thinking, Hao Ren couldn't help but pat the data terminal: "Do you think Hilda's body is considered alive and dead now?"

"Physiologically alive, but without a soul, it is just a ball of carbohydrates undergoing an orderly chemical reaction. And because the power of Chief Raven remains in this body, the latter can survive even if he does not eat or drink water. To 'survive' in this state forever, she will absorb energy from the surrounding space, or use the remaining trace of divinity to create energy for herself. Anyway, it is such an almost frozen state... This leads to digging a hole and burying it. Whether you throw it into the furnace or recycle it will cause you to face a psychological hurdle." The data terminal sighed very humanely at the end, "Oh, so you humans are really weird. It's just a shell for carrying programs. That's all. Zhong, you have given too much meaning to these useless things, which has caused a lot of psychological problems when changing to a new shell. This machine just..."

"If you don't stop talking nonsense, I'll give you a SpongeBob SquarePants casing! I asked on the Imperial Data Network two days ago that there is a business that specializes in custom-made casings for mass-produced terminals like yours. My one-month ration The points are enough to exchange for you more than 30,000 times!"

The data terminal suddenly became silent.

Hilda was actually very open-minded. As a standard Irem elf, she felt that there was nothing wrong with throwing her useless body into the recycling furnace. Although it was a bit psychologically stressful, she could completely bear it. Hao Ren was just a bystander. The author felt that it was unbearable to throw a person away to be refurbished while she was still alive. In the end, he could only suggest that the body should be left like this for now. Anyway, there was plenty of room on the Giant Turtle Rock Platform, and the ship was usually normal. If it's idle, it's idle. It might as well be used as a warehouse.

Hilda expressed her gratitude to Hao Ren, but Lily couldn't help but mumbled: "It's not so much a warehouse... why does it feel more like it's being used as a morgue?"

Hao Renpi looked at the husky with a smile: "This girl talks nonsense all day long!"

Hilda's problem was finally solved, and the matter of the Great Migration of Irem was once again placed on the queen's desk. After returning to her palace, she had no time to rest, but immediately rushed to the Elder Spire non-stop. , to chair the important meeting that was postponed for several hours for some reason.

Hao Ren and the others returned to the lounge of the Royal Spire and waited for the progress. If nothing unexpected happened, news should come from Hilda soon.

As for Hilda's "corpse"... Hao Ren didn't think about it anymore anyway. He put the body in the medical warehouse and locked it, and then placed the entire set of equipment in the small garna behind the medical area. Curry left an autonomous machine responsible for monitoring the movements of the body, and then put this matter aside for the time being. The Giant Turtle Rock Platform has temporarily become Hilda's morgue ship... I think there is something wrong with it, but it doesn't seem to be important.

There is no way, to work for the gods you just need a pair of indestructible nerves that are as strong as a pillar, otherwise these gods may bring you big surprises, but those who are psychologically fragile may be tortured in two or three tasks than Raven 12345 He is still mentally ill, so Hao Ren must protect his mind: self-hypnosis and forgetfulness are the most effective methods.

At the same time, there are a billion elves outside the royal spire and even on the entire island chain waiting for news.

Following Hilda's instructions, Wim had already released the notice of the "big news". Two hours ago, all the broadcasting equipment in the Irem Island chain - the information screens all over the streets and every resident's home - They all played such an inexplicable emergency notice, but it made it easy for the elves to feel that something big was about to happen. This notice was jointly read by the Regent of Irem and representatives of several major elders such as the Technical Elders Council and the Resource Elders Council. And it plays in a loop, and the content is only a short paragraph:

"Inform all the people of Airem that the entire kingdom has entered a state of special mobilization. All citizens are requested to count and record the important personal belongings at hand. At the same time, ensure that the material transportation channels of all island chains are smooth. All transportation, statistics, records and personnel related Citizens in the department are temporarily working overtime to ensure that your department can operate at full capacity in the next 24 hours... This is a level 1 major preparatory situation. This message will be played on a loop, and all citizens have the obligation to inform each other. Also: Please All citizens must ensure smooth communication with each other, report any missing persons immediately, and ensure that all citizens are under social surveillance to prevent any omissions.”

There are many details behind this message. Basically, it is to ensure that all elves are prepared for the great migration, and at the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that every elves are in a state of being able to receive new messages at any time within the next twenty-four hours. This is a relocation of one billion people, and the preparations they have to do are extraordinary.

At the end of the message, there was the most important note that all the elves were inexplicably looking forward to: "Please rest assured that all the people of Irem, this special mobilization is not to deal with disasters. Her Majesty the Queen has returned, and she has brought us... There is unprecedented and inspiring hope. Please be prepared, Irem is about to welcome the dawn.”
