Chapter 1150 - Maintaining the Fulcrum
Using Stephen as a medium, dive deep into Jon Joyce's heart and discover the purpose of the behind-the-scenes boss's behavior.
Zhao Wenrui did it, at least partially.
He saw the moon that he had seen in the inner world, so large that it was so big that it impressed him so much.
As for whether this moon is the palace or prison of the boss behind the scenes, Stephen can't handle it. From the perspective of equivalent exchange of information, even if he uses relevant technology to package it to the fullest, he will not be able to achieve a further breakthrough.
"Since depth is already a luxury, let's use the residual heat to get more information in breadth. Zhao Wenrui thought so.
And the high-forcing method formed by the divine mind movement method allowed Stephen to start the most brilliant and splendid burning.
At that moment, Stephen seemed to be the Holy Spirit who burst out with all his might, and the brilliant soul light spread in all directions, like the sun that could not be ignored, and could completely compete with the mysterious moon.
Although such a majesty only lasted less than 2 seconds, it was compared to the radiant moonlight, but Zhao Wenrui did not miss the opportunity and successfully completed the 'capture' again.
The view shifts from the mysterious deep space of the universe to room C6 of the hotel.
All the magic is gone. The hole in the roof no longer saw the starry sky, but the gray sky, and the room was even more dilapidated, just like those dilapidated houses that had been uninhabited for many years, the wooden planks of the bed frame were rotten, and there were no mattresses.
Stephen stood dumbfounded, unrelievable, as if he were an object. Compared to his rigid, rapidly losing body, the annihilation of the soul was even more severe.
This can be seen from the eyes known as the 'window to the soul', which looks like burnt coke residue. The ability to associate is excellent, and you can think of the eyes of the wicked who have been judged by the Ghost Rider.
Stephen's soul was not judged, but was burned out like a violent burst of magnesium powder.
Igniting the soul, this is an indisputable evil god method, but Zhao Wenrui didn't even hesitate at all when he used it. On the contrary, he is complacent about having the technology that makes the most of it.
He did not rush to parse the information contained in the 'shot' he 'captured'. Instead, he turned around and went straight downstairs.
There is also a fake Jessica, Stephen's people make the best use of it, so that he can feel the goodness of the 'meat machine', with the help of these temporary control tool people, he can be a little reckless, take a bigger step, and don't have to worry about pulling the egg.
However, the fake Jessica is a shrewd girl, and I don't know if she is cautious, or if she has some kind of psychic connection with Stephen, anyway, when he goes to the staff break room (and locker room), she doesn't see anyone at all, and she walks very calmly.
After that, he thoroughly inspected the first floor, and found a secret room in Martin's room, not far from the front desk of the hall, with a filing cabinet as a secret door, which was quite cleverly designed.
The safe in the secret room had been opened, and I didn't know what had been taken from it, and anyway, no one was interested, and they were thrown there haphazardly, and some were scattered on the ground.
In the corner of the secret room, the woman suspected to be the real Jesica was already on her deathbed, her pupils were dilated, and her body twitched at a high frequency, like an epileptic seizure.
But even so, sensing that Zhao Wenrui was approaching, she still tried her best to look over and try to convey information with her expression.
"It's really unlucky to suffer this kind of crime!" Zhao Wenrui knew that this girl only wanted to die quickly, but he couldn't satisfy her humble wish, because the innkeeper Martin had probably been killed by the two outsiders who were travelers, and once Jessica also died, from a certain point of view, it would be equivalent to the complete shattering of the holy weapon that suppressed the seal.
"I'm Kurt Wieland, an agent of the NSA, you're going to be rescued, just kill!"
It is clear that Zhao Wenrui lied.
But lies can sometimes work well.
Although his wording is very generic, he uses psychic abilities, the time track deepens, and the power of the corresponding space-time node spreads around him, infecting Jessica.
This kind of operation is equivalent to forcibly asking the target person to match the personality of the corresponding space-time node.
Jessica is the personality aggregate of the waiters, front desks, door greetings, maids and other characters in this area of Peiang City, the front desk, the door welcome, the maid and other characters, so Zhao Wenrui's operation made him switch to another personality.
Of course, all personalities share the same shell, whether the body is hurt or the spirit is hit, they are all shared.
So even if you change your personality, your state is very bad, and you also look like you're about to hang up.
But this personality has not experienced bad things such as madness all the time, so it is confused, overwhelmed, and correspondingly, relatively easy to coax.
Zhao Wenrui used the means he used on Stephen to mobilize emotions and amplify the corresponding emotions at the same time. This awakens the positive emotions of the other party, making them stay optimistic, hopeful, and firmly believe that they can keep the clouds open and see the sunrise.
It's a lie, but it can hang your life.
However, a lie always requires more lies to be fulfilled.
Therefore, it was not until noon that Zhao Wenrui succeeded in appeasing Jessica, so that she could face the current strange and chaotic situation with a relatively peaceful mood.
Zhao Wenrui even cooked by himself and made lunch with the existing ingredients, although there are not many dishes and the cooking method is not complicated, but the skill is seen in the plain, and the color and taste are very good.
After eating, Jessica's complexion improved significantly, but it was only compared to her previous near-death state, and she still needed to recuperate in bed.
However, reality does not allow it, and the inn needs her.
Closure is not a problem, but it can be a big problem if no one is looking at the store. So Zhao Wenrui made a cameo appearance as an all-round handyman, roughly sorted out the hotel, and stabilized the situation, while Jessica was in the recliner in the hall on the first floor, covered with a blanket and pretending to sleep.
As long as there is such a panting person who can interact with people normally, this store will be watched.
In the afternoon, Zhao Wenrui still passed away in the hotel.
In his eyes, this inn has a lot of work to do.
These jobs are not done for fun, nor are they for the onset of 'perfection', but for the sake of delay.
When he first came to this city of the gods, after taking a peek at it from a high-dimensional perspective, he had a macroscopic understanding of this place.
The five points that need to be explored in his plan are the focus of the framework of the Divine City system.
Sooner or later, these five key points will collapse, and when the plan of the boss behind the scenes succeeds, they will collapse, and the plan will fail, and one of the manifestations is also the collapse of the key points.
And his goal is to get enough information from these five points before the collapse, and then use the opportunity to make a windfall.
According to this line of thinking, although the information on the inn's side has been collected, if the hotel's key point collapses prematurely, it is not conducive to his subsequent steps.
You know, the fastest and fastest can only be to visit Jon Joyce's house tonight, visit the central hospital of Peon tomorrow night, visit the church the night after tomorrow, and where the last point is, only after exploring the first four in turn, will it be revealed.
In other words, not counting today, he must have at least 60 hours of operation time to have a chance to advance his plan to the last step, and at the same time, the one that can reap the most benefits.
But outsiders like Mr. Stephen and Ms. Mason are not all the same as him, and have their own ideas and plans.
Of course, he can complain that these guys are ignorant, fearless, and reckless, and will eventually suffer the tragedy of their own brewing. But expressing dissatisfaction, venting emotions, and pleasing your mouth will not help.
So he took the job of the tinker on his own initiative, so as to give himself enough time to prepare.
Try not to use extraordinary power, the divine domain is already special, and the key points are particularly sensitive.
So although the inn was not big, it kept him busy for almost the whole day.
Some people say that it is difficult to make money from luxury. He agreed.
But now as a handyman, he doesn't see it as a coolie, but as part of the operational investment that must be made in order to make a lot of money.
After all, according to his estimates, if he wins a big victory this time, the information obtained is probably equivalent to the sum of the information value represented by a fifth-level civilization (based on the Kardashev level, the human civilization on Earth in the 21st century is less than a level).
Not to mention the large number of mysterious elements, based on the mysterious elements found in the inn (the grandfather clock), it is conservatively estimated that once he achieves an indisputable victory, then the mysterious elements equivalent to scraping half of the galaxy will fall into his pocket.
In the face of such a harvest, is it a matter to sweat a little and endure a little hardship?
In the evening, Zhao Wenrui picked up more than a dozen large bags of garbage from the hotel, and the hotel finally looked a little good, at least it was a place for people to live.
Miraculously, after the interior was cleaned and reorganized, the exterior of the hotel also changed. It is no longer a broken house to be demolished between high-rise buildings, but a semi-cultural relic hotel with a sense of historical precipitation.
At a glance, people can know that the selling point here is the culture and the nostalgic experience.
Zhao Wenrui is naturally very adaptable to this kind of supernatural, just like the protagonist of {The Matrix} Neo after becoming a savior, the world in his eyes is woven by groups of flowing data, from a high-dimensional perspective, everything here is just a pile of information flow, and his operation is to sort out and program information.
The cook, the handyman, and the doorman, the three who danced in the restaurant in the morning, although they had lost their sense of self, Zhao Wenrui also dealt with them simply in line with the idea of 'as long as they were still panting, and let them fall into a state of deep sleep like vegetative people. Anyway, there is no shortage of houses in the hotel.
This kind of living creature that only maintains physiological survival is naturally not as intact as Jessica's spiritual flesh, but it also has some effect on the concept of 'watching the store', using a dirty metaphor, first occupy the pit and not.
With the windows closed and locked, the lights turned on, and the warm light streaming through the windows, the small inn looks like a well-tended place at first glance.
Symbolically, that's pretty much enough. What Zhao Wenrui wants is nothing more than to maintain this state for a period of time, so as to avoid an acceleration interlocking collapse.
Jessica's body is still very weak, but after a good night's sleep during the day, her spirit has recovered better, and she is no longer confused.
Zhao Wenrui, on the other hand, left the hotel and went to Jon Joyce's house after dinner a little earlier.
In this city of gods, the detached house on Lakeside Avenue may not still be Jon Joyce's house. But it doesn't matter, it's not about whose home it is, it's about what's there.
As the key point of the system structure of the city of God's domain, it is a place of extra rich information, just like the hotel, and there are secrets about the boss behind the scenes.
Of course, there are also mysterious elements, after all, gods can't really come out of nothing, and if you want to do something, you have to find a suitable carrier for the information in order to show concrete effects in the material world. And the higher the control, the more supernatural it is, the more mysterious elements are needed to avoid being interfered with by the laws of the world.
Zhao Wenrui still went on foot.
During the journey, his energy was mainly focused on the analysis of the memories of the capture of Stephen when he saw the moon in the morning.
About twenty minutes later, the results of the analysis came in.
Behind the moon in the form of a planet, there is a huge vortex of energy, which is a very distinctive divine power, and after it spreads out a certain range, it will turn into a kind of electric wave.
If you have a radio or other radio signal receiver, you can play strange noises like broken flutes, ensembles with indiscriminate guitars, and other musical instruments, but it is difficult for non-musical instrument experts to accurately compare them.
To summarize it crudely, it's good to call it a magic sound.
The magic sound is being released, but it is also gathering. If it is an ordinary piece of music, then when it is retracted, it is a symphony, and some even have a chorus.
So this gameplay is actually very easy to understand, that is, the small bucket out, the big bucket in, so as to plunder.
Although he did not have enough information to make more nuanced judgments, he speculated that this plunder was not just the memory of all the intelligent beings in the past, present, and future of a city in Peon, but used it as a crowbar to pry the information of an entire population of civilization, and then devoured it.
The huge passage in the center of the energy vortex, like an eye of the sea, is the entrance to devouring.
"Well, the truth is somewhat disappointing, far less exciting than the brain-hole stories of netizens on the earth......"
Thinking of this, Zhao Wenrui couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
The core of Lowe's horror is unknowable, and the result of the investigation is either death, madness, or an unimaginably tragic ending that is even more terrifying than death and madness. Secrets can never be broken, and they are always forced because they are unknowable.
The current situation is like a thriller, all the content is used to set off the atmosphere, but the plot itself is dull and boring. Nine bends and eighteen bends, the appetite is enough, and the result is to show this? Bah!
But it must be said that from a utilitarian point of view, he would rather keep the plot simple, which is beneficial to him, an intervener who chooses to take advantage of the fire at the right time.
But he didn't think the whole thing would be as simple as it had been shown.
It's not because the old evil gods are all deep old and old in the city, and they like to play tricks and even play with people's hearts. Instead, from the perspective of purpose, he didn't think that the information value of an entire civilization was worth such a big move by the old evil gods.
It's not that the information value of the fifth-level civilization is not eye-catching to the old evil gods, but if you want to get it, there is a better way, and there is no need to be so mysterious.
After all, as a great race, the last thing you need is time.
Then, arranging bystanders and following up the whole process is enough to achieve the goal. Even if there is something missing, you can completely manipulate time and space, and go to the missing node to find out the truth.
So it's not a question of ugliness or elegance, it's a simple question of logic and efficiency.
So he felt that behind the behind-the-scenes boss devouring civilization information, there must be other things hidden, and what he saw now was only the relatively superficial intention......
