The once-closed eternal dream was reactivated, and the vast psychic network gradually stabilized after a fluctuation, and the magnificent temples, temples, towers, and floating islands rooted in the psychic illusion were reconstructed, while at the same time, countless Eternal Sleepers also linked their minds into the network—both the users of the network and the builders and maintainers of the network, who opened up their brains' computing power to the entire network and let it be controlled and claimed as neededThey differ from the "Computing Power Providers" who are called "Brain Servants" who lie in secret temples like the living dead, in that they do not need to pay for the damage of their lives and souls in the process.

After all, the Eternal Sleeper is the master of the eternal dream, and these masters are not willing to sacrifice themselves until the servants are dead.

And in the deepest part of the eternal dream, in the "Dream Hall" beneath the city, the bishopric and their pope are ready.

Twenty-two seats were arranged in a circular symmetry in the center of the room, and eleven white-robed bishops and eleven black-robed bishops occupied half of them as if day and night were separated, and in the center of the circular seats floated a hazy black phantom, which sometimes condensed into human form, but more often it appeared as various indescribable clumps with lilac starlight—whether in the real world or in this virtual world, the Eternal Pope never showed his true face, In fact, believers even believe that their Pope has already completed the sublimation of life form and has become an existence equal to the power of dreams, and this illusory light and shadow is only a projection of the Pope in the world, an "interface" set up to communicate with believers who are still mortals.

Today, the Pope is leading his bishopric in its eighteenth attempt to crack the fragment of Gawain Cecil's memory.

"The eternal dream realm is stable, and the psychic network is well connected."

"The lower-level computing nodes are ready, and the 'brain servant' array is ready."

"The guardianship team is at the location and ready to respond to emergencies in the real world."

"We're ready, Your Majesty."

The bishopric reported on the procedures for which they were responsible, and when everyone was ready, the indescribable hazy light and shadow flickered slightly, as if to show approval, and the voice of the bishop echoed in the mind of each bishop: "Let's get started—to see what is in the memory of that ancient hero." ”

The information link to the memory fragments was connected, and the terrible memories that had caused hundreds of casualties were finally starting to loosen due to the immense computing power provided by the entire Eternal Dream Realm—and while it was true that Gawain had deliberately left a weak spot in the memory fragments, it was clear that the Eternal Sleepers themselves were unaware of this.

They were only pleased to see that their long-standing efforts had finally borne fruit, and that a glimmer of light had appeared in the depths of the vast information mist, and as time passed, the fragments of memory were dismantled, and the parts that could be understood and recognized by humans entered the minds of every member of the bishopric.

In the beginning, they saw a starlight scene.

The deep silence of the universe, the vastness of space, and the countless dots of stars dotted the dark and deep curtain bewildered the bishops' conference for a moment, but they soon thought that this was the perspective of Gawain Cecil's death: would humans really return to heaven after death?

Before the bishops' minds could make up the meaning of that starlight scene, the scene before their eyes began to change wildly.

They saw the stars recede, distorted light and shadow appeared in their field of vision, and they saw the master of the perspective shuttling through the starry sky, speeding past one planet after another at unimaginable speed......

They saw the master of the perspective appear on a burning battlefield, where huge demons wreak havoc, flaming meteorites fall from the sky, and soldiers dressed in all kinds of unfamiliar equipment and unheard of even races charge the battlefield......

They watched as the master of the perspective led an army against an architecturally incomprehensible fortress that seemed to be made of the flesh and blood of some kind of creature, and a terrifying swarm of insects swarmed out of the fortress to fight the legions led by the master of the view......

They saw the owner of the perspective suddenly enter a world of ice and snow, and a steel building with billowing smoke exploding in the wind and snow......

They see the master of this perspective shuttling through different worlds, sometimes leading armies across the battlefield, sometimes destroying entire nations alone, sometimes turning the tide for what he defends, and sometimes putting entire planets under the flames of extinction, fighting, protecting, destroying, creating, and doing all of this with an almost onlooker-like calmness, as if it were all just for the sake of accomplishing some task, or simply entertaining himself.

This "feeling" is fused into the depths of memory, transmitted directly from the owner of the perspective to the brain of every Sleeper bishop on the scene.

And every time this perspective switches worlds, it is accompanied by the same scene: a scene of the infinite starry sky, followed by an illusion of passing through the starry sky......

The Bishops of the Eternal Sleepers trembled as they let the memories of that scene wash over their minds, and they did not dare to think about it anymore, but the memories kept playing—until finally, when they saw the starry sky reappear, and as the starlight shifted, a planet that shimmered in the universe appeared in the background, and the owner of the perspective pounced on the planet—its earth zoomed in in on its vision, and some of the details on it were so familiar, so familiar that they dared not think of it.

This time, however, the master of the perspective seemed to turn a little as he pounced on the earth—the Sleeper Bishops saw the starry sky again, and in the familiar starry sky that could be seen from the Loren continent, they saw one point of light after another shuttling between the stars, and some massive, metal-cast structure hanging high in the sky, an incredible invisible effect gradually covering the structure and making it disappear from the eyes of the world.

That's the end of the memory fragments.

The illusion faded like a tide, everyone's eyes refocused, and the consciousness of the bishopric returned to the hall, and they looked at each other in horror, realizing that all their comrades had been soaked with sweat.

No one took the initiative to speak, because no one could think of what to say at this moment, and it was not until half a minute later that the illusory light and shadow in the center of the hall broke the silence: "Let the Nightmare Mentor Corps waiting outside temporarily take over the Eternal Dream Realm, and the Bishopric will convene an emergency meeting." Today's events shall not be preached. ”

The Eternal Dream quickly completed the shielding and cutting of the information, and after the entire hall became a safe and enclosed space, a white-robed bishop couldn't help but say, "The authenticity of that memory fragment ......"

"There is no doubt about the authenticity, I have checked it myself," the voice of the Sleeping Pope rang out, "it is indeed a real memory, not a woven illusion—everything in the fragments is a real experience. ”

"Gawain Cecil's resurrection is indeed a fake...... the voice of the other white-robed bishop trembled a little, "The one who woke up is not an ancient hero at all!" In that body, there is an alien, inhuman, indescribable ...... Exist! ”

"What is his purpose? What will he do? ”

"We can't come up with a pattern...... Those messy and broken memories, those scenes...... There is little logic to be found! That 'inhuman thing' seems to be shuttling from world to world, constantly changing the shell it uses, sometimes it seems to save the world, sometimes it seems to destroy it, and sometimes it is just wandering around the world, and the act has no purpose at all - we can't understand how a being like that thinks! ”

"Do those worlds really exist? Those...... Worlds so different from ours that they really exist, or have they ever existed? ”

"It's none of our business, the biggest problem now is still to figure out the 'inhuman thing' that occupies Gawain Cecil's body, and what he is trying to do in our world - 'this time', does he want to destroy, does he want to protect, or is he just passing by? Or ...... They will do things that they don't have in those memories...... An even more terrifying or bizarre move? ”

"It can't be a passerby!" A black-robed bishop who was more concerned about the situation in Ansu suddenly spoke, "Ta chose to use the body of a founding duke as the carrier of 'this time', and also established a territory near the Dark Mountains, and started pioneering construction like a mortal, which must have a purpose." And he also killed an Eternal Sleeper bishop......"

"That bishop acted rashly to incur the disaster," someone next to him interrupted the black-robed bishop, "Of course, if it wasn't for his rash action, we wouldn't have gotten this information now." ”

"Anyway," the Pope suddenly spoke, and the scene fell silent at once, and everyone listened silently as the Pope's voice echoed in their respective minds, "perhaps we should call that inhuman thing by 'he'......"

"Your Majesty, what should we do?" A white-robed bishop cautiously asked, "Whatever the hell that inhuman thing is going to do, it's a great source of instability, should we consider ......it?"

"Don't shoot!" The Pope dismissed this thought in an unprecedentedly stern tone, "The situation is very likely to get out of control!" ”

"But the shell He is now using is only a mortal, and perhaps we can banish Him to where He came by destroying His 'carrier'...... It could even destroy Him completely! ”

A black-robed man standing opposite the bishop shook his head: "Too risky. In those memories, we see Him traveling through countless dangerous worlds, battlefields and desperate situations that are more terrible than any danger we have ever experienced, and in some images, we can even see the sight of Him falling—but He never died, but could return to the battlefield again and again, which shows that destroying His carrier could not effectively damage him, and even if he was exiled, He could come back completely. As for the seal...... Who can be sure that the known means of sealing will be effective for such an extraterritorial inhuman thing? In case of failure, the consequences are unimaginable. And you must always remember that the shell He uses is nothing more than a 'carrier', and he may be able to change it at any time, so he does anything with that carrier...... It's all meaningless, and it only makes us lose the only clue. ”

"And more importantly," added the man beside the black-robed bishop, "let's not forget what we saw at the end of those memories—there was more than one shuttler in the starry sky, and there was a hidden steel palace still hanging among the stars, which shows that the inhuman thing is probably not alone, he has his kind, and there are lairs, and if we act rashly, it will attract more ......."

The bishop didn't continue, but his meaning was quite clear, and everyone in the hall was aware of this hidden danger, so for a while, the needle drop could be heard on the spot.

The bishops suddenly felt that this situation was so strange that it was so strange that it made people laugh and cry.

A group of heretics who are opposed to civilized society...... They are struggling with this kind of thing, struggling with how to face an "inhuman thing" - if this inhuman thing is really here to destroy the world, maybe they won't be entangled in it, but the key to the problem is that they can't figure out what this inhuman thing is here to do!

This caused the cultists to fall into a huge state of helplessness.

The Pope sighed—presumably for the first time since he had transformed his own life form.

I thought that the cracking work had made great progress, and I could take this opportunity to find out the secrets of Gawain Cecil back then, and find out some truths about this world, but who would have thought that the memory fragment would reveal a clue that was completely unexpected by everyone......

Or...... Is this part of the truth of the world?

The phantom of the Pope agitated, and he shook the spiritual power and sent his own words into everyone's mind:

"Remember the lesson of the previous 'contact', don't act rashly, don't try rashly, observe cautiously until we have more information, and then contact them carefully."
