Chapter 593: Misalignment

The moment Bertilla Augustus exclaimed, Gawain's suspicions were confirmed.

The strange-looking woman in front of him was indeed the "old friend" in his memory, the eldest princess Typhon seven hundred years ago, and a recognized sage among the druid factions of the north.

However, she has completely changed her appearance, changed her identity, and the only thing that has not changed is a part of her voice and her soul.

She really lived for 700 years!! And he has become a high-ranking member of the Society for the Death of All Things!!

All the chaotic thoughts flashed in a split second, but the expression on Gawain's face did not change, and he strode towards Bertila, a space supported by the power of dreams, where he had fashioned himself in the form of Roland Augustus, the founder of Typhon.

However, it was clear that Bertila was not deceived by the "apparition" in her brother's face, she remembered that this was an illusion created by mental projection, and everything she saw in front of her was not necessarily real - especially since her brother, who had died at the foot of the Sentinel Tower seven hundred years earlier, came back from the dead.

She didn't know who was making the farce, but it was clear that what was supposed to be a strictly confidential connection had been targeted.

She stared at the approaching tall figure, and at the same time seemed to be ready for battle: "Who are you?!" ”

"You've disappointed me," Gawain replied indifferently, and at the same time, he had raised his right hand high, and a silver-white sword that flashed with lightning had already appeared in his hand, "to embark on this path!" ”

He knew that he had provoked the wrath of Bertila, and was ready to fight generously - on the battlefield of this mental world, he was not afraid of any kind of head-to-head confrontation, especially since the other party was obviously a novice who relied on magical rituals or props to enter the "dream realm", if he could take this opportunity to leave the minds of the other party or several people around him, he would definitely gain a lot of information.

Bertila opened her hands, and an invisible wind began to surge around her, and the two elves began to chant ancient and mysterious incantations, summoning the power of magic, and the shriveled figures in black robes raised their thin arms as high as firewood, brewing their respective strength.

Gawain raised his sword, the sword of Typhon's former founding father, with a roar of thunder, and a slight smile was already brewing at the corner of his mouth.

These people are indeed newcomers to the dream world, and they don't understand the rules of battle in this spiritual world at all.

Psychic power and mental power are the real power here, and superficial magic or moves are just illusions in dreams.

In the next second, Bertila's figure suddenly disappeared from his eyes.

The elven sisters disappeared after that.

Several figures in black robes and as thin as wood also quickly disappeared.

The smile on Gawain's lips stiffened, and after a short breath, he woke up suddenly.

He woke up from his couch at the base of the Pinnacles, his vision of the familiar prefabricated roofs and the glimmer of the streetlights that spilled into the house through the windows, and the faint snoring of amber coming from next door.

Gawain: "?? ”

He was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening - people are vegetables, but people are not stupid.

They unplugged the network cable......

Gawain rolled over from the bed and sat up, not dwelling too much on this small frustration, but quickly analyzing the valuable information intercepted tonight.

This was a messy incursion, and after suffering this loss, the Society of the End of Life probably won't give him a second chance to intercept information, and he must be cautious and cherish the information he hears and sees.

Bertilla Augustus has survived to this dayβ€”given her Grand Druid's abilities and the Eventual Society's centuries-long agenda, she should have used some kind of forbidden spell to keep her alive, not the last few years since she was revealed, as she did. Although I didn't see it clearly just now, it seems that not only her appearance has changed, but also her body...... Gawain recalls that he seemed to see something strange like vines or roots under Bertila's skirt.

She fell along with the druids who had entered the Ancestral Peak, and became one of the cultists' high-ranking priests.

There are two elves with her, and they should also be the priests of the end of all things with similar identities.

The black-robed, shriveled and eerie "people" are the targets of the Wasteland, and whatever they are, they are clearly active in the wasteland...... And they are collecting information and passing it on to their compatriots outside.

They mentioned something called a "mutagenaire of sins," a phrase etched in Gawain's memory.

I'm afraid that's what those cultists have been doing all along, and that's their goal!

They know the iniquity of God! They're studying the gods!

This originated from the Gondor Empire a thousand years ago, the product of the ultimate plan to let humanity survive the crisis of the Demon Tide, and Gao Wen thought that all the information about them had been annihilated in the long river of history, in the thousand-year blockade of the fortress of disobedience, but he did not expect that it had been secretly circulating! What do those cultists want to do? To complete the unfinished business of the Ancient Gondor Empire?

Is this the "great evolution" that Pittman once mentioned that the cultists of the end of all things are seeking?

Wait, the goal of those cultists should be as simple as completing a biochemical experiment, the reason why cultists are called cultists is that they not only dare to think, but also dare to do...... If they really reproduce the gods, then they will definitely find a way to spread them everywhere, and only in this way can the so-called ...... be realized Great evolution.

Gawain's greatest gratification now is that he had dealt with it correctly: instead of exposing himself, he used the image of "Roland Augustus" to disrupt his vision, and in addition to disrupting his vision, he set up another smoke screen, which he believed would have had more unexpected effects if used properly.

But it is also necessary to consider the possibility of the smoke screen being recognized, after all, that Bertilla Augustus was a very smart woman back then, and the smoke screen she set up in a hurry was not clever...... Perhaps some more cover-up and arrangement should be found from the Eternal Sleeper......

Gawain pondered as he perfected his aftermath plan so as not to expose himself and let others know that he had the ability to access the network of the Sleepers.

I just don't know what kind of action will be taken after this serious change...... They may be more cautious about hiding, or they may take action in advance, and the latter is actually better - they may be exposed and eliminated in advance.

……

In Ansu, deep in the depths of the dungeon, Bertila quickly woke up from the aftermath of her psychic projection as she struggled with uncomfortable dizziness and a sense of soul peeling.

She looked up and saw that the Elven Twins had also awakened one after the other, and looked at herself almost at the same time.

"Psychic projection is not safe, our communications have been eavesdropped." She said with a gloomy face.

The Elven Twins responded at the same time: "Fortunately, we haven't started talking about more confidential and important information yet, and the eavesdroppers can't grasp our next move." ”

"What matters is who it is," Berthira said in a deep voice, "Ta disguised as Roland......"

"In fact...... We sensed a hint of breath," the Elven Twins began, "it's the power fluctuations that have come from using the Mystic of Eternal Sleep. Although we were in a state of mind projection at the time, we had a lot of experience with the Eternal Sleepers and were more familiar with the feeling of their power in dreams. ”

"Sure enough, it's the cowards who weave illusions and indulge in dreams," Bertilla's eyes grew colder, "I have known for a long time that those who indulge in dreams are not trustworthy......"

But then, she woke up from her anger, and by regulating her nerves and hormones, she forced herself to think calmly.

"Even those who are obsessed with dreams and eternal sleepers...... It's not reckless and stupid, they won't eavesdrop in such a stupid way, and they won't be caught by us...... The telepsychic projection device is what they made, and if they really want to do some small things, they can do it directly in the magic device......"

Thinking of this, she looked up and looked at the Elven Twins: "Contact the Eternal Sleepers directly, tell them about the problem with the telepathic projection device, and tell them that there may be outsiders intruding into the device - see what they have to say." ”

Blind doubt or suspicion is stupidity, and blind trust is equally foolish.

Asking straightforwardly is better than being secretive, she chooses to communicate directly with the Eternal Sleeper, if it is really an outsider who is playing tricks, then the Eternal Sleeper as an "expert" will definitely be able to find the other party faster than herself, and if it is really the Eternal Sleeper himself who is doing this kind of stupid thing...... Then a direct confrontation will expose them even more.

The day of the Great Evolution is near, and she must eliminate the hidden dangers as soon as possible.

……

Deep in the wasteland, the creeping forest began to move again.

The strange trees with countless roots and branches, with their contorted faces squirming forward in the night, they seemed to move at a speed that was far faster than a human foot, and it didn't take long for the creeping forest to gradually cross the effective zone of the psychic projection.

"What's going on......" The giant tree led by "What's going on" let out a low and chaotic murmur, and his tone was full of disdain, "It's not about the overall situation. ”

……

Gawain waited patiently until the next morning.

Amber was stunned when she learned about Gawain's experience in her dream last night.

For this half-elf who served as his own guard, was in charge of the intelligence department, and already knew a lot of secrets, Gawain did not hide his experience, and what shocked Amber the most was indeed the existence of Bertila Augustus, an "ancient".

"That Bertila is a human who has lived for seven hundred years?! And she still looks alive now?! Miss Half-Elf glared at Gawain, "You still knew her back then?" Or even familiar? ”

"I know her brother very well, and for quite a long time - at least five years, she also called me brother," Gawain looked at the half-elf in front of him who was obviously too excited, and didn't understand why this guy was so excited after hearing this information, even if she should really be interested in this information as the intelligence leader, the light in this guy's eyes was a little too obvious, "But that was all back then, and now things are wrong - she is one of the leaders of the cult, and this cult organization obviously wants to do something, That's the crux of the matter. ”

But Amber apparently didn't care much about the issue, because her next sentence was, "Is she one of the eighty princesses?" ”

Gao Wen was stunned for more than twenty seconds before he remembered that he should slap this half-elf into the wall.

However, Amber, who was full of a sense of crisis, had already sensed the murderous aura and jumped two meters away at this time.

"You should be concerned about serious things," Gao Wen glared at the guy fiercely, and then his face turned straight, "Go to the door and keep guard, I want to contact the locals, and I won't see outsiders for the time being." ”

He had to use the magic network that had already been built to contact Hetty in Cecil City and make some arrangements in advance.

- When it is necessary to carry out a lot of data handover, multi-person meetings or experiments, the Mind Network and the Origin Space are relatively easy to use, but when it is necessary to convey information as soon as possible, the Magic Network terminal is still more convenient than the immersion cabin that needs to be prepared in advance. As for the degree of security of these two, in this era, when the magic network communication technology is the only one, it is actually the same, as long as it prevents someone from eavesdropping.

The Magic Network communication terminal placed next to the desk was quickly activated, relying on the relay devices set up at several forward bases and the "Black Forest Highway" along the way, the clear and powerful communication signal crossed the distance of space, bringing distant sounds and images closer to Gawain.

Hetty's figure appears in a holographic projection – with a little dark circle under her eyes.

It doesn't seem to be painted......

She seems to be so busy lately that she has compressed her time for breaks.

Gawain couldn't help but feel a little bit of concern and worry, as well as a hint of guilt.

Because hetty has more work to do next......
