Chapter 183： The technology of the sleeper (1/2)

After climbing up the stairs of the mantle and leaving the North Tower from the ground, Gao Wen and Amber saw how the castle changed.

As Gao Wen speculated, the whole castle was enveloped in a long-term illusion. All the appearances of the castle were shaped by the dreamer Lilith Kant in the dream, but at the same time It is not a simple dream. The boundary between reality and illusion is particularly vague here. They overlap each other and affect each other. Things that happen in the real world can interfere with dreams, and things in dreams will also map into reality.

When the dream is completely removed, you can see the eroded ruin of the castle.

In the area where the dreams are most eroded, the tower of the tall scorpion has disappeared by half, and it has broken from it. The entire upper part has collapsed and collapsed many years ago. The remaining megalithic structure is like a broken sacrum. The ground points to the sky, showing a sly appearance in the early morning gleam, while the open space around the tower is full of brick and debris that has been buried in the loess and vines; the main body of the castle opposite to the North Tower is preserved. It’s still intact, there’s a place where “reality is better”, so the servants living in the main body of the castle really defended the castle. There are not many signs of collapse, but the walls can be seen everywhere. Uneasy cracks and vines and moss that grow freely, and with the fade of the power of dreams, some of the vines and moss have even climbed to the high spires of the main building.

On the way to the main building of the castle, Gao Wen and Amber met the Philip Knight who was rushing in.

The young knight did not experience the battle, but with his own power to destroy a huge magic center is enough to make him exhausted, Philip is very tired, and there is still a deeper, psychological fatigue in the eyes, but After seeing Gao Wen, he immediately cheered up and stood up straight: "Adult! I am very happy to see you safe and sound!"

Gao Wen looked at Philip's expression and nodded slightly: "It seems that you have seen something that is psychologically stressful."

"Yes, adults, as you expected," Philip sighed. "The place where the butler Carter disappears is the 'internal boundary' of dreams. There is a ceremonial field full of sin and sin. I can hardly describe it there. scene."

Gao Wen nodded: "Take me over and see if you should have not removed the whole place?"

"Of course not, adults, those are the evidence of cultists," Philippe nodded. "But those people... I am afraid I have not saved."

"...I guess," Gao Wen sighed. "Take me over and look at the situation. For Amber, you should go to the castle first. I guess the people there should have woken up, and they are panicking, you Go find the consultants in the castle, the treasurer, the chief knight and the pastor, let them settle down and call the supervisors and knights on the territory. I will go to the main hall to preside over the overall situation."

Amber blinks: "Do you confirm that those people will listen to me?"

"How much are you now the Duke's Guardian? Do you think that you have no right to speak in front of the ordinary servant's family servant?" Gao Wen glanced at the guy. "And now the dream is over, about the castle for the past thirty years. Correct perception is returning to everyone's brains, and this ridiculous shock can make everyone into a huge panic, and people can easily accept guidance."

Gao Wen’s second half of the sentence seems to have not entered the half-elf’s head. After the first half of the amber, the whole person has already begun to float. After running for a while, the brain has come out with at least sixty ways to make money. And the eighty methods of deception basically revolve around the central idea of ​​Hu Huwei, but unfortunately she just floated in a few seconds and was seen by Gao Wen, the latter directly blinked: "You have to dare to lend me The name of the pit is abducted, I will shoot you on the wall!"

Amber rolled his eyes: "You can't threaten another way?"

"Then shoot the ground," Gao Wen waved his hand and turned away. "In short, you have to dare to lie on the wall, dare to steal things and shoot on the ground..."

However, the straight Philip Knight, after keeping up with Gao Wen’s footsteps, asked with a worried question: “Would she lie to you after stealing something and say that she didn’t steal it?”

Gao Wen stopped and looked at Philip silently: "...has you considered ironing?"

"what?"

Gao Wenxin sighed: Sure enough, the most difficult thing to do is to communicate with the locals, even if the other party is a squat.

The two came to the underground hall where the Philip Knight found it.

The magical power of the entrenched hall in the hall has dissipated, and the sultry and madness has disappeared, but it is still a ghastly place. In Gao Wen’s sight, the platforms that are neatly arranged around the stone pillars are like a The **** and sloppy planing platform, on these planing platforms, the "Lamb" to be slaughtered is still alive.

Gao Wen noticed the tubular objects that resembled a biological tissue that connected the victim's head and stone pillars. They were entangled blood vessels and nerves, but apparently did not proliferate and mutate from the human brain. Their One end is attached to the base of the stone column, where there is an expansive, distorted flesh-and-blood structure, as if an independent organism is attached tightly to the rune of the stone column, and the other end is connected to the human body. It should be the result of some kind of parasitism (and possibly surgery).

As the Philip Knights destroyed the runes on the stone pillars, the "biological tissues" attached to the stone pillars showed signs of debilitation and sudden death at the moment, they began to shrink and crack, and there was a reddish liquid flowing out of the gap. More than half of the victims connected to them have died.

Even those who have not died can obviously not be saved. They have been connected with those "neural cords" for too long, and individual consciousness has long been completely wiped out. Brain tissue is irreversibly devastating and their remaining brains Nerve cells are just providing computing power for this huge "human brain array computer", and as the magical power dissipates here, they will soon die.

The only thing to be thankful for is that they have not felt the pain in this process.
