Chapter 330: Seeing Through But Not Saying It Out

"Yes, Pig… Master." Herman strained to open his mouth.

"Can't even speak clearly?" Saul took two steps back, looking at the reanimated corpse before him. "What do you feel right now?"

"Like being paralyzed."

Saul reacted for a moment, "Like being hit by a spell?"

Herman slowly nodded.

Saul picked up Herman and walked towards the experiment table, carrying him.

"Since you can't even bend your tongue and your movements are slow, I'll take you around for now. You need to work hard to strengthen your control over your body."

He placed Herman on the side of the table, as if he had placed a plastic model there.

"I have reviewed the experimental records on soul infusion. The containers in there didn't have this kind of uncontrollable situation with you. I need to check again to see where the problem is. If you have any changes, good or bad, you must tell me in time."

"Yes, Pig… Master."

Saul rubbed his forehead, "Well, this is just my experimental attempt. It's normal that it's not as good as Mentor Rom's research results over the years. Don't have a headache… Don't have a headache…"

The next day, when Hayden dragged his scarred body to Saul's second warehouse, he saw the tall man following behind him.

"Sir, who is he?" Hayden immediately became nervous, because she didn't know who the other person was, and whether Saul would tell him about her situation.

After a night of hard work, Herman could already walk on his own without Saul dragging him around.

It's just that his tongue was still not straight.

At this time, his face, covered with a black cloth, turned to face Hayden. Hayden's address to Saul made him feel a darkness before his eyes.

"Sir." He also shouted.

Very clear, no ambiguity!

Saul glanced at Herman and acquiesced to this title.

Then he let Hayden in and said casually, "He's in a similar situation to you, you can call him… Herl."

It was not appropriate to call Herman directly, so Saul quickly removed a syllable.

"Herl?" Although Hayden was still expressionless, the wariness in her eyes when she looked at Herman was gone.

She even leaned over with what could be called enthusiasm, "So we're in the same situation. Are you just entering a new container? I see your movements are not very smooth."

Herman lowered his head and looked at Hayden's beautiful face, and immediately realized that this was Saul's experimental assistant within the wizard.

However, he didn't know that it was such a beautiful assistant…

"Yes." Herman slowed down, not wanting to walk side by side with Hayden.

Who knew that Hayden also slowed down, seemingly intentionally taking care of the inconvenient "Herl".

She seemed a little more enthusiastic than usual.

"When did you enter the container?"

Herman looked at Saul walking in front, it seemed that the master didn't mind him communicating with others, so he tried to respond naturally.

"Yesterday."

"What?" Hayden was stunned, "Then you adapted so quickly. For the first three days after I entered the container, I couldn't even move."

Hearing this, Saul immediately stopped, turned his head and asked Hayden, "After you entered the container, you couldn't move for three days?"

He had seen many of the various reactions after the spirit body had entered the container, but he had indeed ignored the state when he first entered the container.

And the experimental notes often glossed over this.

Hayden nodded.

Saul looked at Herman again, thinking: "The soul of the person corresponds to the body of the person, as expected, there are still great differences."

After entering the warehouse, Saul immediately began to record the state of the two.

He found that although Hayden performed better in all aspects than Herman, Hayden had been in this body for nearly a month, while Herman was only on his second day. Comparing them, Herman was actually ahead of Hayden by a lot.

"So, although it has become a corpse, the body still has a strong acceptance of its own soul. Moreover, the original body does not require the opposite gender to enter the original soul."

Saul watched the two continuing to test various values in the laboratory while thinking.

Suddenly he noticed a strange phenomenon.

Hayden always seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally taking care of Herman.

It was like a cold beauty suddenly started licking a paralyzed person with facial paralysis.

Saul suddenly understood the reason and smiled softly: "So, Hayden, who has been staying in the morgue all year round, has this kind of reaction when facing the opposite sex?"

But Saul misunderstood Hayden.

He secretly took care of Herman, not entirely because he misunderstood that "Herl's" soul was female, but also because of a very important point: he thought they were in the same boat.

He felt that he could understand "Herl's" embarrassment, but with the idea of seeing through but not saying through, he only subtly revealed this meaning in his actions.

"Look, I know you were originally female, but I'm not really a woman either."

But he didn't expect that Herman was actually a man.

Hopefully, he will never know.

On the fifth day after Herman entered his body, Hayden took a day off because he needed to go back to Mentor Rom's place to reinforce the connection between his body and the container.

Saul planned to take this opportunity to have Herman conduct the next experiment—he wanted Herman to enter other corpse containers.

After making other preparations, Saul earnestly warned Herman, "For bodies that are not your own, you may feel a strong rejection when you enter. Don't resist yourself, but if you encounter suspected pollution or alienation, you must report it immediately."

"Yes," Herman replied immediately, and after a moment, he added in a low voice, "…Master."

Saul chuckled and immediately began to record in his hand, "It takes about seven days for terminal organs like the tongue to be controlled more flexibly."

After that, the soul transfer experiment began.

Saul used a defensive wizardry array with soul-locking and energy-dissipation prevention to trap himself, Herman, and two other corpses in the array.

Then he began to transfer Herman's spirit body to his arm first through his arm, which had the ability to absorb and output spirit bodies.

During this period, he found that the container did not produce stickiness.

"Could it be that only I have a strong suction when entering other containers? The corpse group has no attachment to the souls that originally belonged to them, so why would they prevent my soul from leaving their bodies?"

Saul's research on his own spirit body is bound to be put on the agenda, but he is afraid that the special nature of his spirit body comes entirely from the experience of time travel or the blessing of the diary.

Compared to them, studying resurrection may be simpler.

Herman's spirit body was successfully sucked out by Saul, but it failed when entering the first male corpse.

The other party's resistance was very strong, and it had the characteristics of a magnet force. The closer it got, the stronger the repulsion.

Saul could resist this repulsion and continue, but under the pressure of the two forces, Herman's consciousness body faintly showed a tendency to collapse.

Saul stopped quickly.

"Fortunately, I have another corpse prepared." Saul looked at the female corpse next to him, "Let's try this one."

Saul injected Herman's consciousness body little by little into the female corpse next to him.

This time, the repulsion on the corpse was much smaller, but it still existed, and there was no suction like the one aimed at Saul.

However, because the repulsion this time was small, Herman finally withstood the pressure from both sides and completely burrowed into the female corpse.

"The current situation is the same as soul infusion." Saul did not show a happy expression. He reached out and turned the prepared hourglass upside down and began to time it.
