Chapter 462: 153. Soul Matrix

Translator: 549690339

Inside the single cottage in Sector 7.

Noland Lee and Denise Green’s figures emerged amidst the flickering light of the fire.

Denise looked at the crystal in Noland’s hand with a curious expression.

Noland opened his palm and displayed the crystal:

“You saw the red smoke flowing out of the Black City Spire as well. The red smoke is the pollution zone spreading underground. The pollution zone appearing in the Black City is related to the soul in the crystal. But this soul isn’t the culprit causing the pollution zone. On the contrary, her presence delayed the extraterrestrial space pollution invasion, which was supposed to happen in the Golden Dynasty, until today.”

“I see…” Denise’s gaze flickered a few times, staring at the broken flower dress girl’s soul inside the crystal and asked:

“This soul has her eyes closed, as if she’s in slumber. And she’s wearing clothes, not naked. It seems I’ve seen this unique soul phenomenon in a book before.”

Noland was slightly stunned:

“What do you mean? Isn’t it normal for human souls to wear clothes and sleep?”

Denise nodded her head:

“Yes! This phenomenon is very unique. Normally, regardless of the reason for becoming a soul, human soul appearances should be naked. Because clothing is an external thing, it cannot be transformed into a soul form along with the human soul.”

“It seems so…” Noland looked at the sleeping soul inside the crystal and said:

“Do you remember any other specific unique features? Her current state is indeed quite weird. I’m using ‘Soul Shaping’ and Soul Shaping Tattoo to transform her into a ‘Spectral Ghost.’ But what’s strange is that the soul energy she has absorbed is almost beyond the maximum energy limit needed for Soul Shaping, yet there is still no sign of the absorption slowing down.”

Denise blinked her eyes, looking at Noland with a slightly shocked and admiring gaze:

“You can also master branches of Soul Shaping Magic, that’s amazing…”

Denise had seen many different types and branches of magic on Noland before. Hearing that he had also mastered Soul Shaping magic, she was still surprised but not as shocked as before.

Noland didn’t say it explicitly, and Denise wouldn’t ask further, considering the extraordinary aspects of his body to be the result of his Extraordinary Traits.

As for what extraordinary traits Noland had, Denise didn’t want to know. Even if such extraordinary traits were so peculiar that they had never appeared in any literature describing Extraordinary Traits, Denise did not intend to delve into it.

She thought for a moment and said:

“Well… The book I read was called the Manual of Soul Care, the author is unknown, and it can only be borrowed from Hotams’ library. This book states that if a soul wears clothes, it means her soul has been transformed by some kind of ritual. During this ritual, her soul was fixed in its soul form, which is why she wears clothes in her soul form.”

Denise lowered her head, her gaze falling on the girl’s soul in the broken flower dress and without shoes and socks:

“This soul is the kind of situation I just described. I don’t know what kind of ritual she was involved in. In any case, her soul has been transformed by the ritual. Soul, mind, and body are a trinity. If any one of them is fixed, it will cause the other two to stagnate. Her soul will always maintain the appearance of a girl in a broken flower dress, so her body and mind will stay at the girl stage.”

Noland shook his head slightly, sighing:

“No wonder she hasn’t changed her mental level or psychological age after all these years, it turns out that’s the reason.”

Noland threw Deconstruction magic at the sleeping soul, consuming some Energy Points and obtaining the Deconstruction Results.

Noland glanced at the Characters in his mind, a System message, and nodded as if he’d realized something.

He now knew why the girl had absorbed so much soul energy.

[System Message:]

[Deconstruction success!]

[Your degree of deconstruction on the “Transforming Angel Soul” has been increased to 30%]

[You obtain partial panel information of the target:]

[Name] Nicolette

[Type] Disembodied Soul, Artificial Angel

[Identity 1] Ancient Inheritor of the Golden Dynasty

[Identity 2] Cursed Apostle of the Blood Sun Seal (Terminated)

[Identity 3] Artificial Angel of the Angel Enterprises Alliance (In Effect)

[Identity 4] Twisted Artificial Angel of the Blood Sun Seal (Terminated)

[Feature]

Angel Sculpting Soul:

Nicolette’s soul has escaped the polluted body contaminated by the Blood Sun Seal.

The part of the Angel Seed corrupted by the Blood Sun Seal remains in the polluted body.

The uncorrupted small part of the Angel Seed has left the body along with Nicolette’s soul.

The Angel Seed’s soul shaping effect is stronger than the Soul Shaping Tattoo you applied to the Soul Retreat Crystal.

Your Soul Shaping Tattoo did not take effect.

Now, aided by the remaining Angel Seed, Nicolette is undergoing a transformation towards an Angel Soul.

(The degree of deconstruction is insufficient, and you cannot obtain more information.)

Noland carefully read the message sent by the system, and there was no trace of “Upon detection, deconstructing this object will cause negative effects on you”.

The system never reminded Noland to use Harmless Deconstruction on Nicolette’s soul either.

This indicated that Nicolette’s soul itself, as well as the small part of the Angel Seed remaining in her soul, did not carry any pollutants and could be trusted and accepted as an existence.
