Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 518 Angel Puppet Rebirth

Xingluo looked up and saw a door emitting a dark red light. This door seemed to contain endless secrets, making people want to get closer but also want to stay away. However, at this moment, a gust of wind blew up, and a group of black figures suddenly appeared near the door - they were another kind of humanoid creatures forced by the curse and lost their minds. Their eyes were dull, but full of aggression, and they rushed towards Xingluo like hungry beasts.

"Don't underestimate them!" Despite the threat, Xingluo did not hesitate. He quickly cast a shield magic to wrap himself in it, while mobilizing the remaining magic to prepare for a counterattack. "You have no choice but to stop!"

As he shouted, the transparent shield shone with a strong light, blocking the incoming attack, and then rebounded with force, knocking down the two dead bodies crawling in front. But more black figures came along, roaring angrily, forming a terrifying crowd under the night sky.

"I must find the key!" At this moment, no matter how much fear and threat there is behind him, it cannot stop him from exploring power and destiny. After a brief struggle, he decided to focus all his attention on breaking through the siege to reach the entrance of the underground maze as soon as possible, so as to open the door to unknown adventures. Although he was exhausted, at the critical moment of life and death, every step seemed to be challenging his own limits, and such a challenge would only make his determination stronger!

As the battle progressed, the unique roar of a heavy stone door opening could be heard not far away. It was a call, but also a sense of uneasiness like the surge of a hidden power that made it impossible to escape. And now, for all the challenges and tests that are about to be faced, no matter how difficult and dangerous they are, it seems that they are unstoppable!

Xingluo's heartbeat quickened, and he felt the hidden power behind the heavy stone door calling him. Although the dead were pouring in around him, his determination was firm. He took a deep breath, mustered his courage, and rushed towards the entrance of the maze.

At this time Xingluo no longer cared about anything else. The angel puppet was summoned out by Xingluo, because Xingluo found that as he stayed in the abyss for longer and longer, the angel puppet actually had its own consciousness. He didn't know whether this consciousness was the angel's own or generated in the abyss, but in any case, this place stimulated the angel puppet, allowing the puppet that originally needed him to control constantly to have a possibility of resurrection. Moreover, the light element conversion array he arranged in the angel puppet's body gradually showed signs of merging with the body. No matter what the reason was, the angel puppet actually gave birth to its own consciousness.

Xingluo remembered that it was a dark night. In this dark abyss, he felt that the angel puppet was undergoing a strange change. He summoned the angel puppet by force and observed it attentively. As Xingluo stayed in the abyss for a longer time, it seemed that some kind of power was awakening in the angel puppet. As time went by, this power gradually became clearer, as if it was a glimmer of light ignited in the darkness of the abyss.

Initially, the Angel Puppet was just a tool that passively accepted commands, but now it seems to be able to sense the emotions and energy fluctuations in the surrounding environment. As the frequency of battles increases, every time it activates its magic power, swings the Sword of Glory, and defends against abyssal creatures, it can experience the meaning of its existence more deeply. This experience is not only physical, but also spiritual.

It was an invisible and wonderful connection. When Xingluo cast magic, he always injected his will and faith into the angel puppet, and this transmission was not only an order, but also an emotional resonance. Whenever courage or despair surged in Xingluo's heart, the angel puppet seemed to be able to sense these emotions and gradually formed its own reaction. In this land full of haze and pain, this connection was enough to trigger some deeper information and memories rooted in it.

In a dark moment when the sun could not penetrate, a strong and warm energy surged from Xingluo's heart. He closed his eyes and poured his faith into the angel puppet with all his heart. This energy poured into its body like a torrent, accelerating the operation of the light element conversion array. At this moment, the originally separated consciousness began to blend quietly - part of it came from the ancient memory that once existed in this body, which was everything that a true angel had: courage, justice, protection, and endless cherishment of life; the other part was a new consciousness that quietly grew in the long loneliness of the abyss - a desire for freedom, belonging, and self.

It was under this interweaving that a small dot of golden light rose from the chest of the angel puppet. It slowly rose into the air, as graceful as a butterfly. In this process, the long-suppressed information began to awaken - they impacted the surrounding space like a tide, making the originally static space instantly become full of vitality.

"Who am I?" A gentle but firm new voice sounded in Xingluo's ears. Surprisingly, it did not come from him, but from the golden dot. It showed a kind of independent thinking and conscious reaction: this was an important sign of the birth of a new life!

"I... feel your pain and hope." The dots began to condense into a hazy figure. It was a beautiful and noble newborn soul. Her face was gentle, like the first ray of sunshine in the morning light, but with a bit of sadness. "You made me find my belonging again. You made me understand... I was born to protect you."

At this moment, both Xingluo and the reborn new consciousness fell into an incredible silence. They stared at each other, and this connection from the deepest part of their souls created an indescribable but extremely strong resonance between the two. From then on, they were no longer just a simple mechanical relationship between master and tool, but true partners, pursuing hope and freedom together!

"Although I was once just a cold puppet, now I have my own soul. I will fight alongside you until the end!" The angel puppet's eyes were firm, and her wings emitted dazzling golden light. She no longer relied on orders to act, but truly had the ability to choose her own path. "For those who are lost, for you, and for hope!"

"Thank you." Xingluo felt a warm feeling. He knew what this moment meant. It was not just a battle, but also a symbol of a stronger and unbreakable bond between them. "Let us face this challenge together, no matter how difficult it is."
