Chapter 26 Faith is there, and unbelief is none
In every sense, it's a very powerful bone talisman.
It's a pity that the bone talisman itself is actually mutilated, and although it has a strong effect, in fact, its own magic effect is actually a weakened version.
And not only that, but it also has side effects, that is, certain negative effects.
The Broken Bone Talisman is basically like this, not to mention that the positive effect it has is weakened, and there will be headaches due to breakage.
However, the side effect of this bone talisman is barely acceptable, that is, when it is carried on the body, the user's magic power will not be restored...... If the user is an ordinary person and has no magic power, it is equivalent to having no side effects.
Of course, Mo Chen felt that when he needed to recover his magic power, he just had to put down this talisman and no longer carry it close to him.
At most, it is a little inconvenient, or it may not be able to catch up with the timing of use at some critical moments, but this is also a matter of no choice.
Clenching the bone talisman in his hand, Mo Chen turned his head to look in a certain direction, and then he didn't delay any longer, and began to walk quickly into the woods next to the road, with the help of the shadow and then ran quickly.
Instead of letting the driver drive directly to his destination, he chose a route that approached but led in another direction. Anyway, he just rushed the rest of the way himself, so it was at least more hidden than letting the driver drive directly to the destination.
Walking quickly along the route of the road at night, in the dark shadows of the trees next to him, Mo Chen looked at the time of his phone from time to time, and then adjusted the direction and speed.
He didn't know too well how much the power of the six ancient runes had strengthened his physical abilities, but since he received the Outsider Demon Mark, his physical abilities had improved considerably.
Compared to normal people, holders of the Outsider Mark will have a longer stable state of health and vitality.
Using the power of ancient runes to strengthen is to continue to increase extremely effectively on this basis...... It's just that this is not a "plus point" in the game after all, and I can't see that there are a few more attribute points than before.
Therefore, Mo Chen couldn't be sure how much stronger his physical qualities such as strength and agility were than before.
Maybe there are still several times, after all, you must know that in the past, you only need to run a thousand meters to pan and panting, but now you don't even need to frown.
About half an hour later, Mo Chen saw the outlines of many buildings appear in the wilderness in front of him from a distance. It looks like a suburban village, but it looks a little ...... The feeling of people going to the village empty.
There are so many houses, but there are few houses that shine through the light, and the others are all dark, and in the dark night, the whole village is filled with an atmosphere of emptiness and loneliness, and a little imagination of the supernatural atmosphere can make people's scalps tingle.
Stopping, Mo Chen gasped slightly, then glanced back before he suddenly reacted.
I actually crossed such a long distance alone in a dark and remote suburb, and I went where it was dark and remote, just to hide myself and avoid any possibility of being seen by vehicles and pedestrians on the road......
Along the way, I only thought about how to be faster and how to be more hidden, and I didn't think about anything else.
If it had been before, or if it was me two days ago, I guess I wouldn't have been able to do such a thing, right? Sure enough, change is often imperceptible or even unnoticeable.
It is only after making a completely different choice as a matter of course that it is often an afterthought.
He shook his head and didn't sigh anything, but after taking out his mobile phone, he clicked into the previous live broadcast room with some unfamiliar operations.
At this time, it seems that a wave of small climaxes has just ushered in in the live broadcast room-
“…… Whew, whew...... Audience friends, did everyone see it just now, to be honest, I was really frightened, but no...... Phew, I actually didn't see what happened just now, it was all Sister Chai's scream......"
The camera kept shaking, and the anchor girl in the picture was panting hard, and her little face was a little pale.
It looks like it's completely frightened, out of breath.
And the environment she was in was relatively dim, only her delicate face could be clearly seen, and there seemed to be a dark and abandoned corridor behind her, which looked eerie and mysterious.
"Oh my God, it was really ...... Do you know, I didn't know what I was shooting at all, the sudden scream of Sister Chai next to me, my mind was blank at the time, everyone ran away, and I only knew how to run ...... with it."
"It's really bad now, and I'm separated from them, this big house is really big, and I can't see it clearly in the dark...... Listen to the sound to find them? Yes, but I'm a little scared, what if it's not them? Hee-hee......"
Maybe it's because she can speak well as an anchor, she describes what just happened, rendering the atmosphere at the same time, and also mobilizing the emotions of the audience in the live broadcast room.
It seems that it is not yet the end, and they still have to continue to broadcast the spirit live, and they still have plenty of time to prepare.
After a brief look, Mo Chen nodded, and then took a deep breath.
That's right, don't worry about anything, you're trying to validate an idea, and it's good for the other person, it's a win-win situation for both parties......
And at this time when he was about to turn off his phone.
Maybe there is a "rational question" that the lone awake man is looking for something to do, but he wants to watch such a type of show, but he has to find fault again, and the barrage in the live broadcast room suddenly began to swipe the screen.
"This friend, you can't say that."
The anchor girl just winked at this, and then she didn't panic much, just said in a joking tone:
"From the perspective of occultism, there is a saying that "if you believe, you will have, if you don't believe, you will not believe", and "sincerity is spiritual", so the power of faith and fear is very strong, after all, only when you believe in it will people worship or fear the corresponding things......"
"Perhaps in this process of "believing", people are actually unconsciously placing themselves in the world they imagine, and eventually what they believe may naturally become reality......
Mo Chen blinked, pressed the index finger of the shutdown button and paused, and then he was obviously thinking about it, and finally turned off the phone.
The anchor girl's statement just now is very interesting, whether it is correct or not, it has given him some kind of inspiration.
After all, strictly speaking, the reason why he is here now is actually because he thought of something similar.
Even from a scientific point of view, he doesn't specifically study the advanced theories of quantum mechanics, after all, Mo Chen can't understand whether the world is constantly dividing with time as the main line, and everyone's observations will change the world or something.
It's just that he thinks that if it really involves the mysterious realm of the observer effect or something, then whether you believe in something or not, the world must have very subtle differences, and it will develop in the direction of affirmation or negation.
However, just thinking about this kind of thing makes people feel a headache, so he can only speculate wildly, and he doesn't plan to delve into it.
……
……
Not to mention the huge area of the old mansion, and it has the flavor of the last century, but it has been abandoned for a long time.
The place where it sits is overgrown with weeds, the walls on all sides are covered with green vines, and the doors and windows are dilapidated, the broken windows are either dark or ghostly, and the doors and windows above the second floor are tightly closed.
Mo Chen didn't go directly to the main entrance, but walked around the big house, climbed up to a balcony on the second floor very quickly in the back, and then quietly got into it through the broken gap in the balcony door.
As soon as he entered the interior of the house, he was immediately shocked.
Originally, he just acted with the idea of "I'd rather believe what I have than what I don't", and felt that even this was a very unreliable idea in itself, even if it was not possible, he thought that he was purely here to practice stealth assassination techniques.
But as he approached the big house, he vaguely felt something, but he couldn't be sure.
It wasn't until now that he entered the interior of the big house that Mo Chen really felt as if he had suddenly entered another brand-new environment—not a certain rotten aura that filled the dark space.
Rather, he suddenly felt that the connection of the Void Realm had deepened, and the magic in his body seemed to be active.
"Did you come to the right place?"
Mo Chen suddenly became energetic, he raised his left hand, and found that the Outer Demon Mark on the back of his hand was glowing, as if the magic power was flowing and shining one by one.
This made him feel a little uncomfortable, and the skin on the back of his left hand began to itch, which was some kind of "burning sensation" or "over-electric sensation of the Void Realm".
It's been seen before, but it's an occasional occurrence, and it gets stronger as the number of times you use your magical abilities, but it's short-lived.
Just like this time, just a few seconds passed, and the shiny mark slowly returned to normal, and the discomfort disappeared with it, receding like a tide.
However, in the process, Mo Chen vaguely felt some kind of call, and these voices were still lingering in his ears.
It seems to come from a far, far away, but it is like the whispers of the void around you, whispering and whispering, like a whale in the deep sea.
— as if it were the call of the void.
“……”
“……”
Slightly stunned, Mo Chen suddenly had a strange realization:
Could it be that his actions and inspirations were actually inspired by the call of the Void Realm in his previous sleep?
It can even be said that it was unconsciously hinted at by the void?
Shaking his head vigorously, he blinked his eyes and directly used the magic ability of Void Perception to expand the all-round perception realm. The environment inside the big house was very strange, and flickering teleportation still didn't work, but Mo Chen had a premonition for no reason.
That is, the restrictions here are not the same as those of the external environment, and they are not absolute suppression. His magical ability seems to be only separated from his own by a piece of paper, and as long as he stabs it lightly, he can use it without restrictions.
Is it true that if you believe, you will have, and if you don't believe, you will not?
Because the big house itself is a haunted house in a sense, at least the people in the nearby villages think that there is some supernatural horror here, because everyone "thinks" it this way, and the intuitive result is that an unnatural rift has been created here?
So that the Void can better infiltrate here, generating more and deeper supernatural connections?
The place where the realm of the void and reality converge is superimposed, and this is the environment inside the big house?
A lot of thoughts flashed in his mind for a moment, Mo Chen pulled the corners of his mouth, and then stopped guessing. Either way, just verify it yourself.
If this is the case, then there are not enough people who "think" it, and the effect of believing or observing is not strong enough.
In that case, then it's just a matter of adding fire to yourself.
