Jung was emotionally excited, more than anything I've ever seen him. I felt that I could understand why he was so excited, that his observations of me could not be said to be wrong, but that they were still not all I had, so it was inevitable that they would be biased. I and the other Takagawa are different in the eyes of many people, and I am probably the opposite, and the essential difference between me and the other self that these people see is only an illusion caused by the limitations of their own human beings, and in that deepest heart, I and the other self always have the same origin.

When I have never denied the existence of another Takagawa, when the other Takagawa has not denied the existence of me, when the starting point of our existence is the same, we are all "one called Takakawa" after all, not "two different people called Takakawa".

Although I have always thought so, Jung and others would not believe it, they believe more in what they can observe and understand, and the way I and the other self exist beyond the limits of their observation, and because of the "virus", it is beyond their comprehension. As doomsday syndrome sufferers, we don't know about doomsday syndrome, and it's a fact that hasn't changed.

Jung's delusions are not mistakes, and Jung's cognitive biases are not mistakes, which may cause him to make wrong judgments, but at least they can keep his spirit from breaking. The distortion of what they cannot know and understand is a compromise made by their survival instincts, in order to keep themselves alive - even in this apocalyptic illusion, even such a defense mechanism will not allow them to live, and even if it is put into the reality of the hospital, it will not be able to reverse the fact that they have already collapsed.

The basis of the existence of this world is objective, but it is not friendly, and for all people, this unfriendly objective world is reflected in the subjective world, which is an unspeakable distortion, despair, madness, and irreversible error. Perhaps, people who are not aware of this are happy.

I thought so, and said nothing about Jung's agitation. I watched him in silence, I didn't know how to comfort him, I was full of apologies and sadness for everything, but I couldn't talk about it to the victims, and I myself was one of the things that hurt them.

Jung and I looked at each other, and for a while, the violently tumbling emotions in his eyes seemed to have cooled down, and changed back to what I was familiar with: calm, bland, indifferent, but profound, like a hard lid to imprison the surging emotions in my heart in the sewer. He seemed to be thinking, and then said to me, "Come with me, the others are ready." Although I personally feel that it is the biggest mistake for you to find this place, there are also people who think that your arrival can help us a little - Takakawa, I want to ask you again, do you really want to help? ”

"Of course." I said without hesitation. I don't know how the Torchlight Deviation Ritual works, and I certainly can't judge the final result, so I wanted to join in while the ceremony was going on. Even if it's even a possibility, I want to reduce the hurdles for my plans.

Jung clearly didn't trust me, and I really didn't have anything to trust, and everything I've done in the past proves that I'm not their friend and I don't deserve their trust. Those who are still alive now, even if they don't hate me, will never trust me anymore.

A guy who used repeater collisions to kill almost all of humanity - that's what everyone here thinks of me, I believe.

Tomie let out a wanton laugh, and Jung's shoulders trembled a little, but stopped instantly. Ever since his gaze shifted to mine, he hadn't looked at Tomie. I just glanced at Tomie out of the corner of my eye, but it didn't seem to me that Tomie showed anything that would have shaken Jung's heart so much. In my eyes, Tomie is consistent from beginning to end, whether it is mental performance, behavior realization or physical appearance.

Jung didn't say anything more, turned around and left. The place we are in is the basement level of the Great Labyrinth that exists in this Ruling Bureau area. The entire Great Labyrinth is said to have only a portion of the basement that belongs to the Ruling Bureau's buildings, and the rest of the building is entirely made of Torchlight. Judging by the size and anomalies of the location, the Torchlight should have already started construction of the ceremonial site much earlier, connecting the existing part of the Ruling Bureau building by adding new building areas. Only one-third of the places I, Tomie and Jung have walked are exactly the same as they were when they came, and the remaining two-thirds have a fairly strong style of domination. Gray-white material,There is no light source of light,Spread along the channel all the way to the distance,I don't know where the end is,Even if you use the chain judgment,,I can't estimate the area here,If it's a normal space,My chain judgment at this time can reach far away,But,It's full of obvious mystery.,Although it's not a whole temporary data hedging space,But there is definitely a negative temporary data hedging space.。

In order to deal with the onslaught of physical life, the many ill-intentioned people, and other anomalous things in the Governing Bureau, the Torchlight has used its own methods to build this ritual base into impregnable form. I'm pretty sure that even if the Primal Life Attack comes in, it will definitely not be able to gain the upper hand for a moment.

"It's huge, how did you build it?" I couldn't help but ask.

"The men of the Torchlight took control of four construction machines." Jung put it succinctly.

"With mystical powers?" I continued to ask.

"No, there are capable people in the Torchlight who have cracked the activity program of the construction machine...... It's hard to believe, right? The security network is so powerful, the construction machine that relies entirely on the security network should be impossible to crack with the power of a few people, but the fact is that the people of the Torchlight completed the crack a long time ago, and they drove the construction machine to complete the construction of this scale of ritual land in just a few years. Jung said.

"What a capable guy." I can't help but say.

"It's very capable, but it's also very troublesome, and this time you can meet these people." Jung paused at this point before continuing: "I am not the main person in charge of this ceremony, I was only sent to communicate with you, and I definitely do not want to have anything to do with you, but, perhaps, this is fate. ”

"Don't say that, Jung, I think we can be friends." When I say this, I also feel that my tone is a little frivolous.

"If it's another Gao Chuan, you can be friends. Forget your words, I don't want to associate with monsters. Jung said unceremoniously, and then took Tomie and me into the elevator and continued down. The elevator is not clearly marked with a floor, and how much it has descended seems to be judged entirely by feeling. I couldn't find any clue from Jung's face, but Tomie suddenly said: "This is the elevator where wishes come true, I remember about where I was going, completely controlled by specific imaginary behaviors, and the characteristics of the mind are the passwords." I didn't expect there to be such a thing here. ”

I was a little surprised, Tomie seemed to be familiar with this thing, and besides, it sounded very powerful. What she meant was that the "down" here is not a descent in the sense of a normal distance, but rather a specific thought activity to determine the destination. Again something I've never seen before. In this apocalyptic fantasy, there are too many strange things.

Although Tomie said this, Jung did not say a word, and did not look back at Tomie at all, as if he had refused to observe Tomie again.

It was only after less than ten seconds that the elevator gradually slowed down and stopped, and in terms of physical sensation alone, there was not much difference from the feeling of riding a normal elevator. However, since Tomie said so, I am very convinced that the movement of this elevator is carried out in an abnormal way, and that all that can be felt as "normal" is just an illusion.

The elevator doors slowly opened in front of me, and the light poured in through the widening cracks, which was completely different from the previous brightness of the rest area and the passage area. I smelled the sulfur and the flames, as if I were in the interior of an active volcano, except that the temperature was not as high as I thought. Little by little, the scenery behind the elevator doors became complete, and I saw huge columns, huge braziers, huge symbols and patterns covered with stone slabs, at least hundreds of people around the huge brazier, dancing like madmen, as if singing and screaming, many people playing musical instruments, making harsh disrhythmic sounds, and some people hitting drums, big or small, strange-looking drums, and the dull sound seemed to make the heartbeat disordered.

It's such a scene of demons dancing wildly, but it can make people feel the ritual - the strong ritual and surging emotions, constantly swirling in the crazy and chaotic sounds and movements, even the air seems to become turbid, exuding countless reasons for people to be repulsed and not want to stay any longer.

For anyone who still has humanity, this is a sight that can only be described as "evil" and "madness", but, on the other hand, it is also possible to feel a force that is so powerful that one wants to fall into it. I think that if ordinary people had witnessed all this, they would have been infected by this crazy atmosphere and become a part of it. I am very sure that if this is a ritual, then it must be a cult ritual, and if it is still not a ritual, then it is certainly not an act that can be described as a "mentally ill person." From the subjective point of view of human nature, all this is evil enough to make people panic. However, none of the people who can watch it all and stand here will fall into it.

Of course, no one stopped this from happening.

Because, this is their last hope.

I was shocked by what I saw and my first impression was of wanting to leave the place. Although I came here only after hearing that the Torchlight Deviation Ritual can interfere with the current situation, what I can see and feel here is far from what I imagined, even if it is indeed full of power. Personally, I don't think that using this kind of power, such rituals, to cause "deviations" that affect the whole world is beneficial to my own wishes. I am even more amazed that these people turn a blind eye to this subjective evil of human nature, and are desperate to do so, as if their spirits have long since collapsed to this extent.

“…… Is this the ritual? I couldn't help but ask, and I didn't get out of the elevator in the first place.

Jung, who was the first to go out, calmly replied: "Not exactly, the real sacrifice has not yet been offered, which is one of the reasons why you have not been driven away." We need your strength to offer sacrifices for this ceremony......" He snapped back and stared into my eyes with a creepy gaze, "The reason you're here is because you need this ritual too, aren't you?" ”

"......" I was silent, this is a bunch of crazy people. I couldn't see it before, but now I'm sure that their spirit may have become even worse than mine. These "old friends" have become completely different from what I know them.

My heart tingled, and perhaps what I did was what made them what they are today. I make them have no choice when they don't have a choice. This is my sorrow and my mistake, and it is their sorrow and mistake. Now, they have become even crazier than I am, and what I have seen seems to be at a certain stage, but the result of continuing will definitely not be what they hope - do they still have the right calm judgment? I don't have any hope anymore.

I am very sure that the Torchlight is going on, and that this deviant ritual that my "old friends" are helping them to perform, is a true cult ritual. As the Torchlight has given the impression in the past, it will lead to deviations in all its own people and things, and these deviations will never lead to good results, but will cause headaches for everyone. Even so, just as the light of the torch has always existed and has never been destroyed by oneself or others, the present ritual is gradually passing through the stages of execution in a crazy and mysterious coincidence. Can I block them? If I stop this ritual, how will it affect my plans? whether it is obedience to this ritual that will cause everything to deviate viciously, and thus create an opportunity for the plan to succeed; Or should we break the ritual and let the plan unfold as it should, in the midst of what we know to be inevitable in eliminating deviations?

Which one is the right choice?

Once again, I strongly felt that I was standing at a crossroads, and every touch of my heart would be the dice that would determine my fate.

"It's so much fun." Tomie's voice rang in my ears, and she looked at the crazy people, oblivious to all the anomalies around her. However, I'm not surprised by this, this is indeed what Tomie will be, and I just think she just thinks she is "funny", and there is no more subjective emotion than that. No, maybe even "funny" isn't an emotion, it's something else.
