Hearing Gawain's words, Magnum and Yuri were stunned at the same time.
The boundless mist is still surging around, and invisible malicious minds seem to be spread across the entire plain. Amidst the ubiquitous low murmurs and mental pollution, Gawain said without looking back: " Something is trying to bypass the protection of Sandbox No. 1. If I guess correctly, the infiltration of the upper-level narrator into the real world has already begun."
The spider-like Duarte is boundless. Regardless of the fog and mental pollution, all these things that can be seen on the surface actually only divert half of Gawain's attention. The remaining half of his energy is actually paying attention to the changes in the "border" from beginning to end!
This boundary is the boundary of the psychic network. It is the "border" formed by the countless secret doors, springboards and hidden ports that Gawain and Daniel set up in the psychic network. These things are spread throughout the network, covering All nodes except Sandbox No. 1 were once tools used by Gawain to invade the psychic network and monitor the actions of the Eternal Sleepers. But at this moment, these things have become, in a sense, Gawain's way of monitoring whether the network is normal. A hidden line of defense——
When dream control is implemented at each node of the psychic network, and all computing power is concentrated in Sandbox No. 1, any unlabeled information that appears in the network will They are all 100% contaminated by upper-level narrators!
Just now, Gawain had vaguely sensed the pollution, and felt that some of the hidden ports set up in the spiritual network had "sniffed" suspicious information. There is no doubt that the sandbox There is an anomaly in the external network, and there is probably an anomaly in the real world too!
Magnum's eyes widened, and he said quickly while watching the shadows in the fog: "But there is no warning signal from the real world...wait...damn it!!"
p>He suddenly reacted, and his face instantly became very ugly.
"Yuri, let's leave immediately!" Magnum suddenly turned to Yuri Chalvin who was standing aside, and then looked at Gawain and Selina, "What about you two? "
"Selena can't 'return to reality'. She and I stay here, and we will find a way to get rid of the upper-level narrator. Before that, you find a way to find the infiltration in the real world. "Point, plug the loopholes and don't let him escape," Gawain said. "If we can solve it from the source, all problems will cease to exist."
"I understand," Mag. Nan nodded vigorously and looked aside, "Yuri, why aren't you ready?"
"There is no way to escape," Yuri's hands quickly outlined golden runes in the air. , layers of illusory light expanded outward with him as the center, but were constantly blocked by invisible barriers, "It was disturbed... I can't locate the boundary of the real world!"
Boundless In the endless thick fog, Duart's hoarse and overlapping voice came again: "The real world... there is no real world here at all..."
The gloom in the thick fogThe shadow suddenly shrank, and a thick jointed limb with sharp barbs suddenly chopped down. Gawain raised his sword and stopped the sudden attack with a "clang", but then more attacks came from all directions!
Selena easily dodged the attacks directed at her, caressing the air beside her, and invisible waves rippled out layer by layer. The black limbs were instantly covered with translucent foam. , and then quickly dissipated like sunlight.
Gawain took two steps back in the short gap created by Selina, and came to Yuri and Magnum: "Come closer, and I will send you back to the real world."
p>"Can you..." Magnan stared at Gawain with wide eyes in astonishment. He was about to question how the other party could send people back to the real world when he was unable to perceive the boundaries of reality at all. But then he remembered the weirdness and terror of the wanderers outside the territory, and his tone suddenly changed, "Tell me what to do!"
"You don't have to do anything," Gawain said, passing through The pre-set secret door in the system locked the minds of Yuri and Magnum, "It's just that the process may be a bit uncomfortable-"
Yuri subconsciously asked: "What do you mean..."< /p>
As soon as he was halfway through his words, he suddenly felt a torrent of memories that was so huge that it exceeded human understanding and was so swift and irresistible that it poured into his mind. The magnitude of that torrent even frightened him. Everything he had known and seen in the past half of his life, all his memories and knowledge, were washed away by this torrent and were as small as the gravel on the beach——
The surface consciousness was shocked, the mind was fused, and he was forced offline. .
Yuri and Magnum had no time to see what was in the huge torrent of consciousness, and were forcibly disconnected by the flood attack.
As the figures of the two archbishops suddenly disappeared, the boundless mist surrounding Gawain and Selina suddenly stopped for a moment.
The owner of the mist seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then all the thick fog shrank and accumulated layer by layer, once again condensing into Duarte, who was wearing a shabby robe.
"You are more...dangerous than I thought." Duarte looked at Gawain quietly, his tone was calm and strange.
"In my opinion, you are dangerous from beginning to end." Gawain shook his sword and looked at the old man not far away calmly.
Duart stepped forward and took the initiative to take a step towards Gawain.
After taking one step forward, Gawain suddenly felt that the surrounding environment had changed again, and a feeling of being peered into by countless pairs of eyes and enveloped by an invisible net came to his heart.
Behind Duarte, on the side of the spiral hill, the giant spider that was already dead and lying quietly on the hillside also followed that step and suddenly began to pour out "alive" spiders. Feel.
Duart took the second step. Behind him, ripple-like surges appeared on the surface of the corpse of the "Upper Narrator", and layers of runes quickly appeared.Quickly turning from dim to bright, the jointed limbs that clung to the rocks and looked like huge pillars also slowly moved, rolling countless boulders down the hillside, causing a loud rumbling sound.
"The gods are dead..."
Duart opened his hands, seeming to form some kind of resonance with the huge divine spider behind him, he declared loudly, and Red lights suddenly lit up near the giant spider's head, as if countless pairs of eyes were looking in the direction of Gawain and Selina at the same time.
“He died for all living beings...
“His death brought the world back to its origin, all things returned to their cocoons, and the cocoons returned to all things...
"And today, He will also..."
Ripples were already rippling under Gawain's feet. His whole body turned into an afterimage like a cannonball, and he rushed towards Duarte with his sword in an instant. , and in the next second, he stabbed the black and dark red pioneer sword into the latter's chest.
“We can’t wait until the villain finishes speaking,” Gawain held the hilt of the sword tightly and stared calmly into Duarte’s eyes. The illusory flames on the blade of the sword had been ignited and were quickly swallowed up. Looking at the body of this old "priest", "This is experience."
However, in the blazing flames, Duarte's face did not show any pain. He even showed a strange smile and continued to use his calm expression. And he said in a calm tone:
"He will be born for all living beings."
"You must finish what you say. This is polite." ”
After a soft sound like a bubble bursting, Duarte’s body was silently shattered under the sword of the pioneer, and a sudden darkness appeared in front of Selina and Gawain. As it rose, the darkness seemed to emerge from their own hearts, unable to dodge or resist, and completely engulfed the two of them in an instant.
In the darkness, Selina heard a disembodied voice. Come: "Wish you sweet dreams, our 'Creator'..."
...
Magnum suddenly opened his eyes, and the scenery in his sight shook and reorganized crazily. , and finally gradually formed the room furnishings that he was familiar with.
The next second, he suddenly jumped up from the magic circle equipped with layers of protective spells, and almost lost his balance and fell to the ground. After holding on to a nearby pillar in a panic, he became dizzy and retched in extreme discomfort.
This terrible state lasted for a full half minute before the powerful Archbishop of the Ever-Sleeping Man regained his breath. , while cursing and adjusting his state, he looked back.
Behind him, the magic circle with many protective spells had been mostly dimmed, and almost all the mental protection runes had been melted. , extinguished.
Magnum took a breath and muttered in fear: "The power of the extraterrestrial wanderer...doesn't his understanding of 'a little uncomfortable' differ from that of us humans? Same..."
Then he calmed down and turned to look at the entrance of the closed room.
There was no sign of anything outside.There was no unusual movement, and what he saw through his spiritual vision was completely normal.
But he did not feel relieved. Instead, he expanded the scope of his perception. Only after confirming that there was no abnormality in the entire diocese, he stepped to the door, opened the door and left the room.
Almost at the same time, another door not far away on the other side of the corridor was opened, and a slightly pale Yuri Chalvin appeared in front of Magnum.
"Magnum," Yuri glanced here and shook his head with a wry smile, "I suspect that the wanderers' understanding of 'a little uncomfortable' is different from that of us humans..."< /p>
"I almost thought I was dead just now," Magnum frowned and shook his head, "How are you doing?"
"Not bad," Yuri nodded. , "We'd better find Archbishop Semler who is in charge of the temple as soon as possible. I hope the infiltration of the upper-level narrator has not opened an irreversible channel."
Magnan nodded and hurried with Yuri Walking towards the central area of the temple, he muttered as he walked: "The situation is terrible... For today's operation, we closed many ports of the spiritual network, and in order to maintain computing power in this situation, many The bishops and archbishops who were originally scattered all over the country have returned to the Orlandale area... If there is a leak between us, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Think on the bright side," Yuri shook. He shook his head and said, "If there really is a leak between us, at least the leak will be controlled in this underground palace. As long as the upper dome is blown down by then, all problems will not come to the surface."
< p>"...Many times your optimism is really hard to understand."Magnum muttered, and almost at the same time, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly came from the corridor in front of him. , causing the two archbishops to stop at the same time.
Yuri instantly placed his hand on a magic book on his waist, while Magnum raised his arm slightly, ready to cast the spell.
This is the base camp of the Eternal Sleepers, the headquarters they are most familiar with, and the safest place in the hearts of every Eternal Sleeper over the past many years.
But tonight, no more.
The footsteps got closer and closer, and finally, a familiar figure appeared in front of Yuri and Magnum.
That is Archbishop Semler, who is wearing a black robe, has a gloomy and serious temperament, and has a few streaks of gray in his sparse hair. He is the person in charge of the underground palace tonight.
Behind the archbishop, there were several fully armed high-level priests, as well as a dozen "Spirit Knights" wearing heavy armor and holding "Nightmare Cutter" blades.
This fully armed posture is not what it should be during a normal patrol.
The two parties that suddenly met almost stopped in unison, and the priests who were compatriots not long ago were enveloped in nervousness for a while.
"Yuri, Magnum," Sammler stared at the two people in front of him."Didn't you enter the sandbox to perform a mission?"
"The extraterrestrial wanderers asked us to come out to warn that there may be unnoticed infiltration in the real world," Magnum said in a deep voice, "Semler "What's the situation on your side?"
Archbishop Semler was obviously relieved after hearing Magnan's words, but he still frowned: "I'm afraid your warning was a little late..." Something has happened."
Yuri's eyes widened: "There has been something wrong!"
"There is contamination in the containment area, and Archbishop Wendy has already put it under control. They risked their lives to break out and call the police, and then there were varying degrees of chaos in the dogma area, wine cellar, and lower priest area," Archbishop Semler said quickly, "Now we are blocking those contaminated priests in various areas. , I am leading a team to patrol the middle level of the temple."
The situation seemed to be made clear quickly, but the vigilant expression on Magnum's face did not change at all.
"This does not rule out your suspicion, I hope you can understand, Sammler," he stared at the person not far away, "Although we are friends, I must now suspect everyone People."
"We all need to prove our innocence, Magnum." Semler also nodded, expressing his understanding.
"I have a suggestion, which is faster than any magical means," Magnum raised a hand and said solemnly, "Now read with me:
"The upper storyteller is a son of a bitch. "
Yuri next to him suddenly widened his eyes, and then looked at Magnum with contempt: "It's vulgar! "
"Vulgar but effective," Magnum glanced at Yuri, "I once served as a God of War priest and was ordered to eradicate heretical beliefs. I know how to quickly identify devout believers, especially those who Believers who have been transformed by spiritual pollution cannot use reason to control their words and deeds, so...
"Everyone has it, read it with me..."
