However, just as Gray’s consciousness was about to dissipate, he clearly sensed a warm current surging into his consciousness.
This made him a little more awake.
The source of the warmth was his right hand, which had regained the sensation of his limbs. This undoubtedly surprised Gray.
This was not the end.
Next, there seemed to be some kind of force guiding the warm current through Gray’s body.
As the warmth continued to flow into his body, Gray found that the other parts of his body seemed to gradually become aware, and his body finally felt real.
“Ow!”
A tender cry sounded in Gray’s soul.
Calling it a voice was obviously a little biased, because this voice directly sounded in Gray’s soul. At most, it was some kind of magical feeling that Gray had.
It was a magical feeling that something was making a sound in his consciousness.
Although he had never heard this sound before, Gray felt that it was especially familiar.
He inexplicably thought of the dragon egg that he had spent the past few days with.
There was no real reason. Gray just had an intuition.
“Dragon egg?”
Gray subconsciously tried to ask.
It was only when he opened his mouth that he reacted. In this state, it was obvious that he was unable to make a sound.
Then what should he do? He did not know how to transmit emotions like the dragon egg.
Fortunately, the other party’s response came back very quickly. It seemed that even if there was no sound, Gray’s meaning still seemed to be accurately conveyed to the other party.
The other party’s reaction was very fast. It was still the same kind of sound that directly resonated in the soul. This time, it was filled with excitement and joy.
Gray instantly understood the other party’s meaning. The other party was obviously happy that he could recognize it.
Gray gradually began to grasp the tricks of communication in this state.
This magical state of communication was a bit like the dragon egg’s usual sense of directly sending emotions to Gray.
But the obvious difference was that this sense was obviously more accurate than the information that the dragon egg usually sent.
After confirming itsidentity, the doubt in Gray’s heart could no longer be concealed.
“What’s wrong with me? Why are you here?”
“I seem to have seen…”
Gray’s question came to an abrupt end because he found that some of the memories in his mind seemed to be gradually melting like ice and snow.
However, in a short moment, he actually couldn’t remember what he had experienced.
He should have clearly seen something huge and terrifying, but now, only the huge and terrifying impression was left behind. He could no longer recall the actual thing.
Gray sank into silence. However, he discovered that no matter how hard he tried, the only thing he could recall was the shock and fear of death that the other party had brought to him.
Of course, there was also that last sentence:
“March to the glory of death, Void Undead!”
Thinking of that sentence once again, even though his body was now wrapped in a warm current, Gray couldn’t help but shiver.
That sentence seemed to have some kind of magic power, engraving some terrifying information into Gray’s soul.
He didn’t expect that this nightmare that was pestering all the Guardians would actually appear before his eyes in such a bizarre manner today.
Gray wasn’t afraid because of this. His fear stemmed from the strength of his enemy, but he knew that he hadn’t truly faced them yet.
If he wanted to be afraid, then he would leave his fear for when he was powerless!
He still had a chance to become stronger!
“Roar!”
As if sensing the change in Gray’s emotions, the dragon egg’s cry was tinged with a faint worry.
Immediately after, the dragon egg transmitted a message.
The gist of this message was roughly:
Just now, the dragon egg suddenly felt a wave of energy that made it loathe it.
That wave of energy was very evil. It originally wanted to warn Gray, but immediately after, it could not sense Gray’s consciousness. This made it extremely anxious.
Then, Gray’s body began to be corroded by the evil energy. The dragon egg immediately realized that something was wrong.
Just as the dragon egg was anxious, the familiar mana cluster began to move.
It seemed that the appearance of evil activated some mechanism in the mana cluster, and the energy in the mana cluster became active.
The instant the evil energy touched the mana cluster, the mana cluster actually flowed along Gray’s body and reversed the evil energy that was devouring him.
Seeing that the mana cluster was about to retreat after destroying a small portion of the evil energy, the dragon egg made a prompt decision and wrapped the mana cluster with its own consciousness, then, it guided it to continuously clean up the evil energy within Gray’s body.
After cleaning up almost all the evil energy, it finally found Gray himself, who was suppressed at the bottom of his consciousness.
After listening to the dragon egg’s explanation, Gray recalled his last experience before he became like this, and he more or less understood it.
The key to this accident should be the strange black crystal, or the strange substance in the black crystal.
Gray did not know what the ultimate purpose of that thing was, but it was clear that its purpose was not just to kill Gray.
To suppress Gray’s consciousness and erode Gray’s body.
Such actions sounded like it was looking for a puppet that could be manipulated.
Gray had some guesses about this.
The first was the characteristics of the black substance, which would automatically infect and control other lives, making them carry out certain actions.
And Gray had an even scarier guess, which was that the black substance in the crystal was actually conscious.
Even though he didn’t know how long it had stayed in this forest, that thing was still alive. The world had changed, and the sun and moon rotated.
In the long years when a small tree that happened to take root and sprout on it had already become a giant tree in the sky, it had been waiting for the moment to see the light of day again, and had been waiting to obtain a physical body, to complete the task that it had yet to complete.
To be honest, compared to the immense terror of the unknown, such an existence was clearly more frightening to Gray.
With such a will and vitality, it was difficult for Gray to imagine how he could completely destroy an existence like the Void Undead.
Fortunately, this was perhaps only Gray’s guess.
Gray could feel that as the dragon egg’s consciousness carried the energy from the arrow and continuously circulated it in his body, his consciousness had become clearer and clearer, and his body’s perceptive ability was gradually recovering.
Compared to the arrow’s energy controlled by the dragon egg, the evil energy of the Void Undead was gradually retreating. It did not look like it was being controlled by an intelligent existence at all.
Finally, as his body became hotter and hotter, Gray suddenly felt a heavy and earthy smell. His five senses were back online.
