Nightmares know no geography, and even if you leave Las Vegas, you will return in a nightmare, which is not good news for people who think that by escaping the city, they can escape the threat. Not everyone likes demons, and not everyone thinks it's a good thing to get mystical powers, and when they get the electronic demon summoner, they just think it's just a joke. Las Vegas was so turbulent that many people had to leave to avoid getting involved in a bigger storm. However, the greatest danger to users of electronic demons does not come from the struggle between the users, or from the confrontation with the government, or even from the entanglement of interests, but from the strange situations they have to face, such as nightmares. No one knows what will happen to them when they die in a nightmare, but they are definitely not willing to sit back in a nightmare. Whether it's a ghost nightmare, a nightmare Las Vegas, it's enough to make people clearly feel that this is not just a dream.

One might wish to explore more in this nightmare Las Vegas, but the five in front of them are troubled by how they can leave. Truth be told, the feeling of being in Nightmare Las Vegas is quite realistic, and it feels like you can't wake up naturally in a conventional way.

"How long will this nightmare last, you say?" A young man expressed concern, "Does the fact that we have escaped our ghost nightmare mean that we will not be able to wake up again unless we return to our own nightmare?" ”

His speculation resonated with others, the nightmare of Las Vegas was too much of their imagination, and what would happen in a square-like nightmare that was not exclusive to someone had never been experienced.

"Maybe. Just go back to the place where the ghost nightmare happened? The young woman said uncertainly: "I don't think the electronic demon summoner can only appear in Las Vegas, there must be some users who are not native to Las Vegas at all, so their ghost nightmares can also happen in a building in Las Vegas?" ”

"Definitely not." I answered the question in the affirmative, "The scene presented by my ghost nightmare." It's one of my properties in Asia. Stay inside the house and still look out at the local city. ”

Everyone else was a little surprised.

"In other words, doors and windows are passages?" Although it is an interrogative sentence, the tone is an affirmative sentence, and the communication between us is enough to make everyone aware of some similarities and regularities.

"Anyway, we'd better go back to our room first." The middle-aged man thought for a moment, "I'm going to try." It's not an option to wait here all the time. ”

"Wait!" Seeing that he was about to leave, I hurriedly stopped and asked, "Do you know this girl?" "I told Marceau what he looked like and the address of the watch shop.

"I don't know." The five people in the room shook their heads, and the young woman said to me, "I'm leaving Las Vegas in a few days, and I can show you this address before I leave." How can I contact you when I wake up? ”

"Thank you!" I can't ask for it, Marceau's situation in the nightmare is somewhat abnormal, and I want to know what she is like in this world. Thereupon. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the whisperer's business card - actually. I didn't know if I had this business card in my pocket at all, but it was just a nightmare, so it wasn't surprising that I had something in my pocket.

"The Whisperer?" The young woman asked, and the other four couldn't help but look at it, and the "whisperer" was not a name. Appearing at this time inevitably evokes a lot of imagination, and when they look at me again, there is some suspicion in their eyes.

"Yes, Whisperer." I smiled at them. "To introduce myself again, my name is Takakawa, a mystery expert, you can understand as a witcher and a detective, and I am the one who is responsible for dealing with mysterious events that cannot be explained by science. The Whisperers are a mysterious organization in Asia, of which I am a member, and whose area of operation is in the northwestern part of the Central Principality. Entering Nightmare Las Vegas this time can be regarded as a business trip. ”

"A mysterious organization?" All five were a little surprised, "You're not in Las Vegas?" Has Asia become the same as Las Vegas? ”

"No, I'm not an electronic demon user." As I said this, Silence melted into the shadows, and several people gave them disbelieving looks, "Silence is not my electronic demon, although there are electronic demon users among the Whisperers, but the Whisperers are not an organization composed of simply electronic demon users. Before the advent of the electronic demon summoner, the Whisperer already existed. We focus on all the mysteries in the world, and the appearance of the Electro Demon is just one of them, but due to the lack of manpower, the range of activities is basically fixed in Asia. ”

Although I was serious about explaining, others were still skeptical. I know that this is because they have not been in contact with other mysteries at all before they come into contact with the electronic demon, so the deep impression of the electronic demon has become their initial impression of the mystery, so they subconsciously understand all the mysterious events in the direction of the electronic demon.

If it weren't for Shinrikyo Doom, without the invasion of NOG and other outsiders, perhaps this understanding would be true in this Repeater World. However, on the other hand, without the mystery brought by our people, this repeater world might have remained in a state of suppressing mystery, and let the daily life of ordinary people continue, so that the occult would only be presented to people in written form, and would not become the current feeling, as if the whole world was different. For ordinary people who are accustomed to science, the mysterious appearance must be jaw-dropping.

Just to find out what the electronic demon is and why it appears, it is enough to annoy people, and I think that many people will not be happy that there are mysterious powers other than electronic demons in this world. This is because this is not only an impact on the concept of universality, but also a further impact on the current social order, causing further evil consequences.

However, at this point, whether they doubt it or not, whether they are willing to accept it or not, they can only face this fact - even the person who has obtained the electronic demon is not the only one and special. In fact, the five people in front of them, whether their attitude towards the electronic demon is accepting or resisting, I think, it is impossible for them to have no vanity at all. Others don't. And the power you have is often the easiest to make people proud. Didn't I feel fearless because I had mysteries?

"Can demons be given to someone else as well?" There are still people who can't believe it, he looks at my shadow, and the silence is inside, and I look at his shadow. Feel like his electronic demon is there too.

"Anyway, it's an indisputable fact that Mr. Takakawa is already in Nightmare Las Vegas." The middle-aged woman regained her calm and asked me for the whisperer's business card, "We can talk very happily here, and it is also fate, and there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future." Excuse me, Mr. Takakawa, are you planning to open up a part of the situation of the whisperer to recruit people and invest? ”

Others heard from middle-aged women. I also realized something, and they all looked at me.

"You don't know what a mysterious organization is, a real mysterious organization, and it doesn't participate in the normal social cycle, that is, we don't maintain the organizational structure through normal channels." I shook my head and replied.

"Not participating in the social cycle?" The young man was puzzled, and seemed to be confused by the answer. However, middle-aged men and middle-aged women immediately realized what I was referring to. But also because of suspicion.

"So, how do you get your means of subsistence and production?" The middle-aged man questioned: "Without money, no factory, and no peripheral business activities, how can we maintain the activities and growth of the organization?" The members of the mysterious organization also need food, clothing, shelter and transportation, right? ”

"So. We just don't participate in the normal cycle of society. I smiled and didn't explain any more, because, for normal people with normal values and social outlooks, the actions of the mysterious organization are not only illegal. And it's like a cancer. This is not because the mysterious organization has not formed a value to the society after obtaining social benefits through abnormal channels, but because for normal people, the value of the mysterious organization is not recognized.

What is the social value of an organization focused on solving mysterious events for those who do not admit the existence of mysteries? How can an organization that is completely active in the apocalypse, without focusing on the exploitation of resources, without intervening in commercial circulation, and merely taking supplies from others, convince normal people?

The development of the Whisperer also requires supplies, but in the Whisperer's development plan, there has never been a branch of "how to obtain supplies", because the Whisperer uses "mystery" to collect materials. In this respect, consciousness walkers have an innate advantage in that they can control the consciousness of the person and lead the person's actions without being recognized by others. To put it simply, even if a person who has been interfered with in his consciousness donates all his money, he will not think that there is anything wrong with it, and of course, a consciousness walker will not be so violent in order to cover up his savings. For example, a conscious walker will set up a fund, through the ability to walk consciously, so that the fund has a complete but inconspicuous record, and then, through the intervention of consciousness, let people spontaneously donate to this fund, and even if the amount of a person's donation is only one yuan, thousands of people will add up, there will be thousands of yuan, not to mention, the amount of donations, not to mention that the amount of donations is not based on one yuan, but on the number of "individuals do not care", so that the number of donations is not based on the number of "individuals do not care", It doesn't take much effort to get a large amount of money in a short period of time, and it is continuous, such as a monthly donation.

Each mysterious organization has its own way of using mysteries to collect materials, and it is not limited to money, even if there are no consciousness walkers, they can also use some special mysteries to achieve smooth and wealthy clothing, food, housing and transportation. Of course, there are also mysterious organizations at the beginning of their establishment, and the "mysteries" they have cannot be used in this regard, so they will also be connected to the normal social cycle at the beginning, and establish a peripheral capital structure to maintain their own vitality, but because it is too involved with the normal social cycle, it is relatively weak and weak in the secret process.

As for a large mysterious organization such as Cyberball, because its concept has determined from the beginning that it is impossible to set aside the normal social system, so, strictly speaking, Cybersphere is not a concept of a mysterious organization, and it will definitely not become a mysterious organization. They are only "mysterious organizations", not "mysterious organizations".

The easiest way to truly form a mystical organization is to have two consciousness walkers as members. Two people can become an organization, and the power of consciousness walking can better complete hidden activities, of course, if the members are consciousness walkers. And if there are only two people, the scope of mysterious events they can deal with will be correspondingly narrow. Although the consciousness walker fits the essence of the apocalyptic vision, there are many limitations when it comes to showing power with specific mystical powers. They are the best handlers of apparently conscious mysteries, but they also tend to be weak for unconsciousnessed and at the same time inhuman mysteries. For example, most Consciousness Walkers are very resistant to confronting Dead Soldiers, Primal Beings, and other Ruling Bureau Beings because. Their mysteries are exerted on these beings, and they will be weakened to the point that they are difficult to accept.

Although I have not been recovering from this apocalyptic fantasy for a long time, another common knowledge about the occult circle, as well as the information that Cyberball gave me for free before I left London, is enough to give me a general idea of the "consciousness walkers" that have never appeared in the apocalyptic illusions of the past. What's more, I'm not really a consciousness walker though. However, with the help of the power of "Jiang", there are many times when consciousness is used mysteriously, so it is not unfamiliar.

The current mystery holders of the Whisperer are only me, Tomie, and Sagawa, and Sagawa's identity. Let her show her extraordinary talent in harnessing the resources and intelligence she has mysteriously obtained. So, as far as the whisperers themselves are concerned, becoming a truly mysterious organization is a matter of the near future. I also understand the thoughts of the middle-aged woman in front of me. However, it is true that whisperers no longer need to "invest".

"Where's the intelligence?" The middle-aged woman said, "My connections are pretty good. ”

"So be it." I thought about it, and I also felt that the whisperers needed information sources other than John Bull and others, especially the information provided by the electronic demon users themselves, although because of the restrictions of race and country, the scope of these people's activities was more limited to Europe and the United States, but today's Europe and the United States have indeed become the center of gravity of the mysterious diffusion, even if the whisperers whose activities are limited to the base camp city, they can also judge the mysterious spread to Asia through the information of these people.

Even if important and critical information will be transferred by John Bull to facilitate our cooperation with NOG, other scattered intelligence sources can supplement these important and critical information, which is better than nothing.

"If you really need to exchange information with the whisperer, rather than a one-sided commission, you can give me an email address for a follow-up." I said to the middle-aged woman, "This email is mysteriously encrypted, so it can't be used for purposes that aren't related to the whisperer." ”

The middle-aged woman smiled with satisfaction, pulled a pen and paper out of her bosom - I don't think she thought about why she had a pen and paper in her pocket - and wrote down an e-mail address and handed it to me alone. Of course, you can't directly bring out the nightmare with what is written on it, but as long as you remember it, it's fine. This nightmare is not like the last apocalyptic fantasy in the past, which is called the "Doomsday Fantasy", which is suspected to be the predecessor of the "Ruins of the Ruling Bureau", and the temporary number jΓΉ hedge space will erase the amnestics of those who enter and leave. In fact, in this apocalyptic fantasy, the nature of the temporary hedge space such as the "ruins of the ruling bureau" has also changed dramatically, and "can be remembered" is one of them, and, in a sense, it makes people feel that it is a kind of "deepening", which means that it is gradually no longer closed.

These changes make me wonder if the ruins of the Ruling Bureau will one day be completely removed from the posture of the "hidden place" and displayed in front of the world, and the mysterious forces unique to the Ruling Bureau, such as the Ruling Bureau's safety net, dead soldiers and physical lives, will also invade people's lives in a more direct way and become one of the signs of the end of the world. The cooperation between Doomsday Shinrikyo and physical life, guided by the agent of the apocalyptic "Carmen", also seems to be a faint herald of such a change.

However, that was also the situation after that, the tentacles of the Ruling Bureau can even reach directly into the repeater world, and now this repeater world is an example, but before the ruins of the Ruling Bureau are completely unsealed, I think the strategy for this Las Vegas repeater has come to an end. The process of the end of this world, driven by many well-intentioned people and even the Nazis themselves, is rapid. Quickly enough, most of the electronic demon users will be eroded before they have time to adjust to their own mysteries. If the death of the user of the animatronic demon meant that the power of the animatronic demon had truly become the nourishment of the Nazis, then this speed of doomsday would undoubtedly be more in line with the Nazis' wishes - to create mystical sources faster and more efficiently.

The conversation with the five electronic demon users in front of me gave me a more concrete understanding of the apocalyptic process of this world. The changes that are taking place in Las Vegas, these five people are all direct participants, and they are not completely irrational because of the sudden force, and what they know from their mouths has a high degree of credibility.

I also seem to have a good impression of them, and you can see it in their attitude change. In particular, the questions and answers I asked as a member of a mysterious organization that was not a user of the electronic demons, although still not convinced by everyone, had reduced the vigilance of the apparent xiΓ n a lot, after all, my place was not their main sphere of activity, but in remote Asia. So, after the middle-aged woman, the other four also exchanged email addresses and business cards with me, respectively. They still seem to be full of curiosity about the mysterious organization of "Whisperers".

After that, we started walking back. Because, we have been talking for a long time, but none of us have the feeling of "waking up", and the previous worries have become a problem at hand. Maybe these users of the electronic demons who have just entered Nightmare Las Vegas really need to get out of where they came out in order to return, or rather, wake up.

I know that I don't need to wake up in such a way, but I'm no longer a user of electronic demons, so I don't have representation. And the thought that they might have another ghost nightmare on their faces made the five of them write their anguish and anxiety on their faces, and I learned that they were on the verge of death in the ghost nightmare before they entered Nightmare Las Vegas, and it was like a coincidence that they were able to get out of it - of course, in my opinion, there was no such thing.

"Would you like to get to know my friend?" At this time, I gave them advice: "It's the girl in the watch shop, the watch shop is her ghost nightmare, she used to let me into it." ”

It was a topic that interested all five of them becauseβ€”

"Ghost Nightmares can also let others in?" The young man was a little stunned, but soon became excited: "In other words, you can find someone to help eliminate the ghost?" ”

"I've fought with her ghost." I'm covering up part of the truth.

"You saved her?" Young people are very interested in this issue.

"Perhaps, but I don't think I've eliminated the ghost." I waved my hand and said, "But at least for a while, she should be safe." ”

"But the watch shop is still a nightmare. The watch shop has not disappeared, and it must be because the ghost will reappear. The young woman said cautiously, "Although I would also like to know what other people's ghost nightmares are like, and whether many people can deal with ghosts together, I am not mentally prepared yet." Mr. Takakawa, if I find this girl in Las Vegas, I will definitely help you inquire about her situation in detail. ”

"Thank you very much." I smiled and nodded, looking at the others, "What about you?" I'm going to go to the watch shop now and tell the girl something. ”

"I'll go, I'll go." The young man from before said excitedly.

"Count me in." The middle-aged man thought about it for a moment before making a decision.

The other young man and middle-aged woman shook their heads and declined the invitation, and the two seemed mentally ready to face their ghostly nightmare again. The middle-aged woman said: "Even if you can enter other people's ghost nightmare from Nightmare Las Vegas, you can't help the owner of the nightmare much, and the next time you fall asleep in reality and enter the nightmare again, you are still alone in front of the ghost." ”

Middle-aged men also have this consideration, but he thinks more complicatedly, and younger men, who are more excited and active, are not very suitable for such statements. Eventually, we parted ways at the intersection, and I took two of them to Marceau's watch shop and the other three to wake up alone. (To be continued......)
