Under the leadership of Selina, the team of eight sleepless explorers began to march towards the center of the town.
Dream lanterns swayed slowly in an eternal dimness, and the hazy light was sprinkled on the quiet streets. Daniel and others were fully alert, watching at any time for strange changes in the surrounding streets, and Gao Wen followed silently. Aside from this team, Gaze fell on Selena Gell.
Patty, who likes to run in the dream world, Patty who is weak but still trying to smile in the real world, and "Pati" with a somber expression in front of her, holding a lantern, three shadows hovering in his mind, and Overlapping with the scene in front of me, it gradually formed a weird impression—
He seemed to see Selena Gelfen holding Patty's hand in front of the team.
He shook his head, shook out this unreliable association, and then raised his head, his gaze reflected a line of light rising from the far end of the street.
It's morning glow.
Daniel and others also stopped, watching in suspicion a brilliant light suddenly cut through the darkness, appearing at the end of this small town that seemed to fall into an eternal night, the light quickly expanded in the eyes of everyone, Almost in a blink of an eye, it turned into an endless golden red morning glow, splashing wildly on the town's staggered roof, and then the golden red morning glow turned into light golden sunlight, completely dispersing the dark shadows between the streets.
A giant sun rises slowly in the sky, the light shines, and the darkness recedes.
"It's dawn ..." Daniel stared at the majestic scene of the rising sun, as if he couldn't be uttered by the magnificent scenery, but he reacted quickly, with a long staff in his hand. Various mind-protecting spells are blessed on the entire team in just a few seconds.
Its daybreak! This is a sight that has never appeared in this phantom town-it is the third state except the midnight before the bell rings and the midnight after the bell rings!
In this place, everything that has never happened before just means danger!
Other sleepless people also responded, preparing for various offensive and defensive spells, or watching the street changes with vigilance, and soon, the changes happened in front of everyone's eyes-
Unexpected figures appeared on the streets.
As if suddenly waking up from a dream into the phantom of reality, the empty streets of the town were empty in the last second, and countless shadows of ghostly shadows emerged in the next second. These shadows quickly changed in the next few breaths. They are solid and real, they have turned into pedestrians coming and going, into countless residents in the town!
These people wore classical costumes different from the real world. Their faces were numb and hollow. They were shaking on the streets like a zombie corpse, but soon they "woke up" and quickly became vivid and flexible. They were in Daniel. Waiting for people to come and go, walk and talk, as if living in this town normally from the beginning, as if this town has never been weird, there is nothing unusual!
Archbishop Magnum is rippling with dizzying layers of light and ripples. The powerful storm of mind is almost out of hand, but at the moment when the spell is about to take shape, the arrogant-looking archbishop stuns. Own spells and prevent others from moving: "Wait a minute! It depends!"
Archbishop Yuri was surrounded by complicated golden runes, and offensive spells were almost shot. Only after Archbishop Magnan reminded him, he stopped casting, and looked around—
The crowds coming and going on the streets of the town seemed to have not noticed Daniel and his party. They were still busy living their own lives, busy on the road, busy talking with relatives and friends, and standing in the middle of the road. The team was obviously so eye-catching, but it seemed to be invisible to all residents.
Daniel couldn't help emitting a little cold sweat.
This phantom town has become "lively", but this bustling and lively street is even more weird and scary than the unmanned street that was covered by night!
"This is also the projection of Sandbox No. 1," Selina's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence in the team. "These residents should only be active in accordance with the information recorded in the projection, such as a large fantasy, and will not interact with us. Generate interaction. "
"... It inspired me to weave nightmares," Archbishop Magnum muttered in a louder voice than ordinary people. "Why didn't I think of such a scene before?"
"Keep moving on," Selena shook her head. "Also pay attention to the contents of these" Phantom Residents "conversations. Their daily conversations may reveal some of the current status of Sandbox 1."
The pedestrian continued to march towards the center of the town, walking cautiously on the streets of the town where pedestrians came and went.
Everyone is taking care not to get in touch with those "phantom inhabitants"-although everyone is very curious about whether these shadows can be contacted and what will happen after contact with them, everyone who can participate in the exploration task has at least basic Be cautious, and under the premise that the situation is unknown, no one has made such a bold attempt that may have any consequences.
Gao Wen took a part of his attention and listened carefully to the contents of the conversation between the phantom residents: he was also curious about the "life" in the sandbox No. 1.
Most of those conversations are of little value-just like any normal, street dwellers gossip, the "residents" are talking about the weather, the harvest, the short length of their parents, and the bad luck.
The people in Sandbox No. 1 seem to be living an ordinary life. They are old and sick, married and funeral in the virtual world, they have their own troubles, their own desires, travel for life, and worry for the future ...
The only difference from the real world is that from time to time they talk about "upper narrators"-they pray to him, swear with him, and even become part of everyday sayings.
They would say "even the upper narrators would be surprised" to describe the incredible degree of a thing. They would say "the upper narrators definitely know", this sentence is actually saying that they know nothing about something -Only God knows this.
Gao Wen's brows were slightly frowned, and his heart was undulating.
In a sense, the everlasting people really created a miracle, a miracle greater than the "body of the pseudo-god" of the eventual death.
So many people have a real, real mind, and a "virtual personality" created by a sandbox. They live in such a simulated world and live their colorful lives from generation to generation, with their own joys and sorrows With the pursuit of longing, it has been running for more than a thousand years, and then the world has only leaked.
Such superb technology ...
Is it okay to do something with people?
If these gangs of technology distribute half of their abilities to death and engage in technology such as artificial intelligence, they may soon restore the iron man mind of the Gondor Empire. !!
In Gao Wen's heart, there was a strong impulse, and the whole team had come to the end of the street and to the edge of the square in the center of the town.
The small church with gray-white exterior walls and high steeple really stood on the square quietly.
The steeple of the church is bathed in brilliant sunlight, and the outer walls are shining brightly under the huge sun. It symbolizes the upper narrator's wall painting, and the residents stop and pay homage.
An old clergyman wearing a plain gray robe stood in front of the open door of the church, smiling at the square where people came and going. A resident stayed beside him, listening to the old clergyman's story about the upper narrator. Truth, everything looks so harmonious and beautiful.
It almost makes people forget that this is a weird projection located in the "imaginary number zone", that this is a phantom town full of dangerous forces of distortion, and that they are in an exploration team with a mission ...
Archbishop Yuri suddenly awakened from his sorrow. He saw a lantern flashing in front of himself, and Selena Gelfen's voice sounded in his ear: "Don't relax, remember that this is just a projection, everything here all fake."
Gao Wen glanced puzzledly at the few sleepless people in front of him, with a murmur in his heart-what happened just now? Is there some force trying to erode them? Why don't you feel it?
The elder clergyman not far from the church door raised his head, smiled and looked at the eternal sleepers who were guarded by the whole enemy, and said quietly: "Why resist? This is not a beautiful world What? "
With the words of the priests, in the nearby streets, in the square in front of the church, the residents of the towns who came and went busy, those who had turned a blind eye to Daniel and others suddenly stopped, as if The puppets that were stationary for a while stopped.
The next second, they slowly turned their heads inadvertently, and their eyes fell on the unexpected guests in the square.
Residents of the entire town quietly cast their gaze, even at this moment, even Gao Wen felt creepy!
Of course, the everlasting ones are even closer to the enemy. Only Selina calmly met the eyes of the old priest, and slowly spoke after a few seconds: "Sure enough ... you have a soul close to the real. You are this The projection of the town ’s master mind? "
The old clergyman looked indifferent and slowly shook his head: "I don't understand what you are talking about, I just think you should try to stay here for a few more days-the land sheltered by the upper narrator is lucky, why bother returning to that dangerous nothing in?"
Gao Wen's brow frowned slightly--dangerous nothingness? What do you mean?
Refers to the "imaginary number zone" outside this town? Or ... what's the current state in Sandbox One?
Yuri's gaze fell behind the old clergyman not far away, on the open church, and after carefully perceiving the information structure in the area, he lowered his voice and said, "That church is the exit- It should be connected to the surface of the phantom town and the backbone of the spiritual network. "
Magnum snorted. "I guess that guy definitely didn't plan to let us in."
Selina slowly raised the lantern of the soul in her hand and stepped towards the church not far away: "I'm curious, can your upper narrator really bless your soul here?"
"The upper storyteller is everywhere ..." The old clergyman slowly opened his hands. "Where the Lord's people stand, the Lord is ..."
Layers of halo emerged behind the old man, a courageous oppressive force suddenly came down, and an empty, holy and powerful voice of sacred music sounded over the entire church square--
Except for Gao Wen, who could not be observed, everyone at the scene felt more or less that their own mind was being withdrawn, and the sense of resistance was disintegrating.
In this projected town, deep in the imaginary area outside the sandbox No. 1, an upper narrator priest who can only be described as a phantom at best, is exhibited with the blessing of some kind of "belief". Really powerful magic!
Selina and Gao Wen, who was in a state of psychological invisibility, changed their appearances at the same time. The former took a step forward, and the lantern in his hand bloomed a brighter light than ever before, impacting the halo emerging behind the old man and opposing the square Power that pervades the minds of people.
The golden runes around Yuri floated and expanded into layers of barriers that could protect everyone. At the same time, the archbishop shouted without saying: "Magnum! You can do something you are good at. ! "
The red-haired, short-skinned Magnum waved his hands, "Mind Storm!"
In an instant, the entire square was floating with layers of tidal waves that looked like illusions. The tide suddenly turned into a brilliant storm. The powerful spiritual force washed everything in Gao Wen's sight and washed those who have begun. An influx of "phantom residents" with a frantic look on their faces.
In this projected town supported by the power of the soul, the psychic storm that should belong to a more hidden spell set off a real "storm!"
A large number of faceted projection residents melted quickly in the storm like wax figures in the fire and were torn apart. Govin heard the roar of the old clergyman in front of the church-after the cavities were really exposed, the other party had already No longer maintaining the illusion of gentleness and politeness, a crazy, distorted mind is the true form of the other party!
More projected residents rushed out from the end of the streets and alleys, an exploration squad rushing to the center of the square, and the owl priests guarding the team cast their mental attack attacks, reducing the number of enemies, and Gao Wener A thunderous roar resounded from Archbishop Magnum: "A storm of mind!"
A new storm struck, and the slate floor on the square was torn apart by this "real storm". The continuous flood of "projection residents" was ash and smoke extinguished. The whistling of the storm even overwhelmed the magnificent and holy Saint Music, the discomfort of people's minds and the discomfort of resistance fading quickly weakened.
Immediately, Archbishop Magnum raised his hands again, his voice louder than the thunder in the storm:
"Heart-spirit-wind-violent!"
"Heart-spirit-wind-violent !!!"
