Chapter 2056: Chapter 1617: Exotic Ghosts Are Here Too

Abandoning the physical form and sneaking away with consciousness is a dangerous thing, it means one must immediately find a body to host the consciousness, but the Ghost Guide was left with only a wisp of consciousness, incapable of searching for a body, and there was no vacant body nearby for it to occupy, so it had to seek Ange’s help.

It thought Ange was an Exotic Ghost, as that wave of intent was something it had seen before, so it contacted it without any defense through the intent.

The next moment, Ange placed it into a Stacked Piece, providing a host for its consciousness. Just as it breathed a sigh of relief, it discovered there was a Consciousness Imprint in the Stacked Piece, merging with its own consciousness.

"This... what is this?" The Ghost Guide was incredulous, thinking it had seen wrong.

It didn’t expect the Traveler to give it a Consciousness Imprint after saving it. What was the intention behind this? Was it worried that it might get trapped within a Consciousness Cage like before, so it established an early consciousness connection to facilitate rescue?

It instinctively thought in a positive way, as it couldn’t believe that the Ghost Tourers would establish a consciousness connection with it, something every guide dreamed of. How could such a great fortune fall on its head?

The Ghost Tourers are very mysterious beings, and although these Guides can summon them to attack the God Star, it’s impossible to have a conversation with them. The previous angry hum was already a rare interaction.

Honestly, the Ghost Guide secretly had a little pride: Traveler Lord hummed at me, do you have that?

A greater surprise came one after another, not only did the Traveler Lord save it, but also established a consciousness connection with it, doesn’t that make it a Near Descendant of the Traveler Lord?

Some Ghost Guides, when calling the Traveler, may not succeed due to distance or lack of sincerity. If it establishes a consciousness connection with the Traveler Lord, wouldn’t its summons never fail?

These thoughts flashed continuously in the Ghost Guide’s mind, then were transferred by Ange to the Consciousness Space, leaving Negris and the others bewildered: "Did this guy misunderstand something? Ange has imprinted it with a Consciousness Imprint, why is it so excited?"

Anthony, however, understood this emotion and said with a smile: "It was originally a refugee, now suddenly taken in by a noble as a knight, although having lost its freedom, its status is different."

This analogy was immediately understood by Negris and the others, in fact, it was even more extreme, akin to a priest from the Church of Light directly transforming into a Divine Envoy, a status under the Divine Spirit but above all living beings.

"Since it thinks this way, the Lord shouldn’t act directly, let me handle it." Anthony said.

The original plan was to directly search its memory after the imprinting, but since it thinks like this, it shouldn’t be wasted. After all, Soul Search is a one-time thing, but nurturing it means having someone familiar with Exotic Ghosts and the Void.

Once the Ghost Guide reformed its body, Anthony emerged, startling the Ghost Guide: "Who!"

"Hello, I’m Anthony, do you have a name?" Anthony asked coldly.

The Ghost Guide suspiciously scrutinized Anthony, the faint consciousness connection made it understand that it and the Anthony in front of it had the same subordinate relationship.

"Are you also a subject of the Traveler Lord?" the Ghost Guide tentatively asked.

Anthony responded in a bland tone: "Yes, the Traveler Lord arranged for me to... guide you? Unsure if that’s what it means, do you have a name?"

Anthony’s hesitation directly dispelled all the Ghost Guide’s doubts, because it empathized with this sentiment.

The Traveler Lord is too difficult to deal with, just like helpless believers who never receive a response from the Gods, only guessing on their own, Anthony’s so-called ’guide you’ was probably also a guess.

"You can call me..." The Ghost Guide pondered for a moment and said: "Dalasso, a name I used a long time ago."

Anthony’s interest was piqued: "A long time ago? What were you formerly?"

Anthony had long noticed that the language of this Ghost Guide was quite ’rich’, using words like ’damn’, ’fortunately’, ’excessive’, ’trend’, which are all terminology of a certain plane.

A world with life and death would have the term ’damn’, winds bring ’trends’, where is there wind in the void? How can a Ghost Guide die?

Every term is connected to one’s environment, which made Anthony suspect that the other was once a planar creature.

"I used to be a human." Dalasso said.

Anthony was taken aback, truly shocked, suspecting the other might be a planar creature, but never expecting it to be human? Can a human become a Ghost Guide?

He initially thought if it were a planar creature, it would at least be a Dragonkin, leaving a bloodline similar to a Time-Space Ancient Dragon, never considering humans.

How could a human, with a mere hundred-year lifespan, become a Ghost Guide?

"How did you become this form?" Anthony inquired bafflingly.

Dalasso said: "When I was human, I often heard a voice guiding me to continuously transform my life form, eventually becoming like this."

"Just like that? Nothing else?" Anthony asked in confusion.

Isn’t this a Chosen One? Mysteriously hearing the voice of a god, gradually mastering divine power step by step, finally becoming a divine envoy, how is becoming a Ghost Guide similar to becoming a Divine Envoy?

"Yes, just like that, oh, and I slept for a long time after leaving the plane, when I woke up, I had completely transformed into a ghostly form, what about you?" Dalasso said.

"I was similar, I was also human." As he spoke, Anthony manifested a human form, continuing: "However, I have always followed the Lord, never experienced dormancy, my form was granted by the Lord."

"Ah? Your form was granted by the Lord? Then you’re a Near Descendant of the Traveler Lord, please take care of me in the future." Dalasso clumsily picked up the formalities from when he was human.

"Hehe, so are you now, your form is also granted by the Lord." Anthony said.

Dalasso immediately realized, feeling a sudden proximity: "Exactly, you and I are both Near Descendants of the Lord, luckily this time the Lord saved me, otherwise I would have been doomed. By the way, do you know what the Lord prefers? I want to present something to express my thanks to the Lord."

"No need, whatever you can offer, the Lord wouldn’t need it, the Star Soul you previously compensated the Lord was unused, just seeing your decent attitude, you weren’t punished and received more attention. Getting sheltered due to causing trouble, you’re a lucky one." Anthony laughed.

After some conversation, they quickly became familiar with Dalasso, unobtrusively extracting a lot of information.

Meanwhile, Lania looked at the empty Consciousness Cage, the Divine Light flashing rapidly within it. To translate, it might take thousands of words, but summed up, it conveyed one meaning: Where’s the Guide? Where’s the Ghost Guide? Where did it go? Are all of you God Star blind, standing there unaware that the enemy has run away, blah blah blah...

To which Kerani responded with just one sentence, making Lania shut up: "Lord Lania, if it can escape from your Consciousness Cage, it only shows that Exotic Ghosts are also here."
