Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 417

[Chapter 415 Connection]

Boom!

A thunderous bang exploded in the depths of his consciousness, and Morris lost control of his own state almost instantly—even in the asylum state where the main consciousness was isolated and his mind was solidified, he was still affected by the spreading force. The ultimate shock swept the heart, and it was crumbling in the subsequent, stormy wave of information shock!

In an instant, his “psychological perspective” standing behind his body rotated, and he could no longer see the words in his mind in his field of vision. He could only feel the endless fog swirling and rising, and the words he had read just now The words were like an out-of-control bee swarm attacking and gnawing around in his memory, tearing apart his personality. He even forgot his own name for a while, and the only thing left in his mind was himself at the last second. The title that I saw before——

Sacred Lord Youshen.

However, at the next moment, this feeling of spinning around was suddenly stopped by something. Morris felt that his consciousness was dragged back to the real world by an extremely powerful force, and during this “pull back” process, He saw many arrays of flickering lights appearing in the dense fog, and among the many lights, surrounded by the largest red light source.

This scene seemed to be a glance from the God of Wisdom Rahmu, but in the next second, the array of lights quickly dissipated and turned into a huge wave that was slapped by raging

; A piece of pale dust and smoke that disintegrated suddenly, the fine and pale ashes were like the ashes of a saint, pouring down on him;

then, those pale dust and smoke burned in mid-air again, turning into a falling rain of fire, in which countless dazzling and red The stream of flames surged towards him as if it wanted to burn him up!

But just before the crimson flames fell on him, Morris saw that all the fires were suddenly dyed with a layer of green – the raging and bursting fires became milder in an instant, and fell to the side little by little, One of the flames touched his shoulder, and he immediately felt that someone patted himself heavily. The next second, he suddenly opened his eyes and realized that he had returned to his body.

The effects of consciousness isolation and mind solidification were forcibly ended, and I returned to this world from a critical state of madness.

The moment he regained consciousness, Morris resisted the urge to “take another look” and closed the big black book in his hand.

His movements were quick, but even so, the book flipped a few pages violently before closing, and in the corner of his eye, some trembling words came into Morris’ vision with an extremely strong impression—that It was a sentence, with a strong obsession as if dying: “We will eventually return to the pure and holy origin.” The

black book was completely closed, and the last moment was entrenched in Morris’s mind. Seeing the text, I gasped violently.

Fanna immediately noticed the strangeness here, and moved closer in two steps: “How are you?” “

…the daily life of a scholar, dealing with deadly knowledge, and then surviving,” Morris panted, and stretched out his hand to Fanna , “It’s okay, I’m still me—help me up.”

As soon as he got up, he asked again: “How long has it been?

” After a few glances, you suddenly closed it, and at the same time your spirituality was in turmoil, and unrecognizable shadows began to appear in the surrounding fog.” “A few seconds…” Morris pulled the corner of his mouth

, But in his mind, he recalled the scene of wonders he saw when he was dragged back from the brink of losing control.

In the next second, a deep and majestic voice appeared in his mind: “Morris, what happened to you?”

Morris was startled, quickly straightened his expression, and responded in his heart: “I was reading a book just now. The book of blasphemy seized from the Annihilation Cultists was accidentally contaminated——Captain, you brought me back in the end?” “

Well,” Duncan responded, “just now I suddenly realized that your mind was attacked, so I used the help of my stay The ‘mark’ on your body checked the situation. You just said that you seized a book of blasphemy? What happened specifically? Are you still with Fanna? Where are you now?”

“Fanna is with me. We are still active in the upper city. We discovered that some Annihilation Cultists entered the real world through the cover of fog and manipulated some ‘fakes’ to attack the city-state—we found and eliminated one of the controllers just now,” Morris responded immediately, then sorted out his thoughts, and continued, “The situation is very strange. After the death of the cultist, the body showed a phenomenon of fusion with the original substance, which seemed to be the result of some extreme ‘transformation’. He carried Then he is carrying a black unnamed book, the contents of the book…”

Morris stopped suddenly, his tone became extremely cautious, and at the same time he carefully controlled his thinking: “The contents of the book are disturbing. The original text of the hieroglyphic narration transcribed by ‘The Crow’, I only had time to read a small part of it, and it was polluted. Sorry, I can only report so much now-I can’t recall the details now.” Duncan’s

voice There was silence for two seconds, and then it rang again: “It’s ok, safety first, don’t continue to recall what you saw. Take the book with you, and then report to me in person.” Morris was slightly relieved: “Yes,

Captain

At this moment, Fan Na suddenly “spoken”: “Captain, how is the situation there?” ” Alice

and I are on the second waterway—it’s very quiet here.”

Deep underground near the central city , at a certain intersection on the Second Waterway, Duncan raised his head and looked at the empty corridor in the distance.

A thin layer of mist is floating above the corridor, clinging to the dark dome, the mist seems to appear in this space out of thin air, and it is getting thicker and thicker as time goes by—but it has been thickened Compared with the surface of the city-state completely covered by fog, the little fog here is not serious.

“I’m waiting for the fire seed to be in place.”

With the help of the “imprint” connection, he said to Fan Na in his heart.

“Tinder?” Fan Na’s voice sounded a bit puzzled.

“The lairs of those Annihilation Cultists are not in the real world—the mirror image of Frost is their base camp,” Duncan said slowly, “Whether it is the Sea Mist Fleet or the Frost Navy, including the guards of the city-state guard and the church, they are here The elimination of the ‘invasion’ in the real world is only slowing down the process of the mirror image rising, and only from the side of the mirror image can the real problem be solved. “

Agatha has already taken the fire – she will find those heretics lair, and I’ll help her light that place.

Fan Na’s response obviously hesitated for a few seconds: “Then… is there anything we can do? ” “

Just keep hunting in the fog, destroy all the fakes you see, find out all the controllers behind them, and hunt as many as you can,” Duncan said, “It makes sense to slow down the invasion. Gaining time for Agatha is also reducing the pressure she faces. Fan Na responded immediately: “

Yes, I understand!”

A few seconds later, her voice came again: “In addition… There may be a fake ‘Gatekeeper’ operating in the city-state, but the church does not seem to have any response, do you think… “

Her voice sounded a little hesitant.

Duncan already knew about the fake, even more clearly than Van Na.

After all, he had established contact with the real Agatha.

“Don’t worry about that ‘Agatha’ , “After a moment of pondering, he responded, “You don’t have to deal with her—but if you meet her, you can help if you need it. Fan

Na was obviously stunned for a few seconds, and then she spoke with astonishment: “Help?” ! Help with that ‘fake’? “

Don’t forget, not all fakes are under the control of the Annihilation Cultist. The most outstanding ones have their own will,” Duncan said in a calm tone. The situation still needs you to judge by yourself at that time. ’

‘Yes, I see, Captain. “

This time, Fan Na responded with a strange solemnity.

It seemed that her sense of mission as a judge resonated subtly with that “gatekeeper” at this moment.

Communication with followers is over.

Duncan exhaled lightly, then raised his hand, and a cluster of small flames ignited at the fingertips.

He stared at the flame, and after a while he said softly: “Agatha, do you think ‘she’ will really be what you think?”

A cold and hoarse voice sounded from the flame: “Yes.” “

You Why so sure?”

“Because I believe in myself.”

“But it’s just a copy of you,” Duncan said calmly, “There will be small differences between you, and this difference may cause her to make a different decision than you. “

“But you didn’t order your followers to eliminate that ‘hidden danger’ because of this,” Agatha said, “You also trust my judgment.”

Duncan was silent for a few seconds, and then sighed softly.

“There was a human named Brown Scott who proved to me his humanity, and this humanity is still valid in the ‘fake’—so this time, I don’t mind believing it again.” “If

… I mean, what if, what if my judgment is also wrong? Your trust will be mispaid…” “It’s

okay, it’s all trivial.”

Is it a trivial matter…

In the cold and damp sewer corridor, Agatha lowered her head, He glanced at the small flame that was still burning quietly in the palm of his hand.

The faint heat escaping from the flame seemed to be the only temperature she could feel in this world—outside the firelight, she felt that the whole world was as cold as a tomb.

The voice of the “captain” came again: “Agatha, what’s the situation on your side?”

“I’m still advancing, and I’m almost there. I can feel it very close.”

“I’m talking about your situation. Your voice sounds different from before.”

Agatha stopped walking.

She lowered her head, and what she saw in her eyes was her scarred body and the wounds that were no longer bleeding.

“It’s okay,” she said softly, with a grave-like coldness in her voice, “it’s all small things.”
