Nightmare afternoon town.

Abner was also startled when he saw all the lights in the Floating City, and almost took back the "gear book".

- He was a little worried that the changes in the floating city would attract the sinister things in the town in the afternoon, and then implicate himself.

Soon, however, Abner was keenly aware that there was nothing unusual in the town, as if the monsters in the darkness were unaware of the dazzling lights of the floating city.

"The ritual of protecting the Floating City, as I had previously judged from the video shown in the 'Gear Book', was an enlarged version of the secret technique 'Evans's Hidden Barrier'......

"This mystical barrier should borrow the rich 'dark' divine power that the goddess left in the town, and let the floating city fall into a deeper 'nightmare' than this 'nightmare' afternoon town, which will make those monsters turn a blind eye to it.

"'I' have deeper nightmares than you, so I'm in secrecy relative to you! Unless you also fall into a deeper nightmare, it will not affect 'me'...... Combining the misty town of 'Night Country' and the church in the town of 'Kabas' in East Chester County, it can be roughly surmised that this is the principle.

"And the reason why I can see it and notice its changes is because the 'barrier' created by the black gem given by the goddess on my chest borrowed divine power is the same as the 'barrier' of the floating city...... In other words, I am in the same level of 'nightmare' as it.

"In that case, this barrier outside the Floating City1 is nothing to me...... After all, our 'layers' and 'stealth' are the same. ”

Abner thought about it for a while, and then he understood what was going on, and he couldn't help but have a look on his face.

At the same time, he also walked up the stairs to the middle level of the town in the afternoon where it was connected to the platform of the floating city.

Having come here, Abner didn't hesitate much, and stepped over the barrier that was visible to the naked eye in one step.

Then, as he expected, the barrier didn't stand in his way, except that as he passed, Abner felt as if he had been marked by something, and Inspiration was telling him that he was being watched.

In this regard, Abner didn't care, if the side of the Floating City didn't even have this vigilance, even if there was a barrier, I am afraid that it would have been destroyed long ago.

However, after thinking about it, Abner still simulated the combination of "psychological stealth" and "hidden shadow", after all, he is too conspicuous as an outsider, and it will not be good if he is misunderstood by the residents here and cause chaos.

Although he has good intentions, he will not be beaten and not fight back, will he?

And before the ruler of the other party came to communicate, he also wanted to take the opportunity to take a look and gather some information.

In fact, due to the sudden opening of the high-energy-consuming projects of "Morning Star City", the people in the city gradually became panicked, fearful, excited, and fanatical from the initial stunned and sluggish. And so on.

Those who are panicked and frightened are reminded of the original "Morning Star Fall", thinking that something big will happen to this last homeland or that it will be difficult to deal with the enemy invasion.

The excited and fanatic are reminded of the "Emperor of the Machines" they revere and the prophecy left by the god-like being, "When He returns, the morning star will shine and the calamity will be far away from ......."

I don't know how many "people" spontaneously went from the inside of the middle and lower peaks to the surface along the passage, and gathered under the statue of the "Machine Emperor" in front of the central tower to pray.

Abner followed this flow of "people", which can be regarded as an eye-opener.

Nine out of nine of them have undergone a complete mechanical transformation, and only a very small number of "young" people who have been born in recent decades have only partially changed their uniforms.

Due to the scarcity of materials, many metals are taken locally from the town in the afternoon, so the styles of colonization are also varied, and various "mix-and-match" styles prevail, making Abner once thought that he had "traveled" to the underground streets of some cyberpunk world.

However, this "custom", which has been completely modified and even replaced by a material simulation, has provided Abner with a lot of convenience.

For example, after he became a demigod, the "information extraction" ability sublimated from "breath extraction" could only "see" some local shallow "records".

But now, those mechanical brains that store "information" have become ready-made "databases" that can be "extracted" by Abner.

After all, those machines are different from normal human brains, and they are essentially the same as the "information" stored in the environment, and they are all within the scope of the "prophet" ability.

"202 years ago, the morning star fell...... Well, this vintage...... I remember that according to the information displayed in the 'Gear Book', it took 203 years from the time the Floating City rose to the time it fell...... Wouldn't the two numbers being so close portend something?

"The Five Alchemists vs. the Four Popes...... Oh, that one named Goron is a powerful 'Three Templars', and it doesn't matter if he calls himself the Pope...... The other three are actually the strongest in Sequence 5, and dare to be called the Pope? Is the 'true Creator' then without cards? This is actually 'blasphemy', right?

"Well, those people must have heard the whispers of the 'true Creator' before they converted...... Maybe each of them heard different things and teachings, which is why they formed their own sects? It's no wonder that in a small floating city, four churches of the 'true Creator' were built...... I'm afraid they still accuse each other of heresy.

Lucien Evans, the 'Emperor of the Machines'...... The 'I' used to be really a wool picker with an arcane book! It's good that the 'Floating City' is not called 'Alinge'......

"However, 'I' was a little unlucky in my later years, I actually encountered the explosion of the energy core during the mechanical transformation at the end of my life, ......and more than two hundred years after the explosion of the energy core in the 'Morning Star City', there have been countless mechanical transformations without such an accident...... It is no wonder that many people still suspect that it was the assassination of believers in the 'true Creator'...... Although 'my' friends and students have clarified after the accident investigation that was reopened a hundred years ago.

Prophecy ...... The morning star shines, and calamity is far away......

"I didn't even think I'd come back before I died, right?

"As for the morning star shining...... Could it be that my arrival triggered some kind of preset mechanism?

"It doesn't seem to be, I remember that it just changed 1 after I unsealed the 'Gear Book'......

"Then again, what's going on with this floating city? What is the state of the people inside? Little Sun had told me that the real Morning Star City had crashed outside the town on a real afternoon day. ”

Abner read the message, complained, pondered, and quickly turned his attention back to the statue of the 'Machine Emperor' in front of the tower.

Crane had previously visited Master Klaus's replica of the Floating City in Nath and described the main facilities in detail to him, but did not mention the statue......

It is explained that it was built after the Floating City fell into the Nightmare Town, and the existence who left the dream in the sea area of the Divine War Ruins to guide Master Klaus to imitate did not know about this situation.

Of course, this alone is not worth Abner's attention, and the reason why he is curious about the statue is because the other party gives him some familiar feeling...... The feeling was very similar to how Abner felt when he faced Alvin Abraham the "Rover", "The God of Luck", and the seal "1-025".

Carefully looking at the statue in front of him, which was about three meters high, dressed in red armor with a metallic luster, and wearing a full-coverage helmet on his head, Abner couldn't help but think:

"This is not so much a statue, but actually a full-body costume with exquisite materials and beautiful shapes!

"And the yellow stone at the top of the helmet...... If I'm not mistaken, it should be an extraordinary item made by the direct blending of extraordinary characteristics and some items!

"This statue, no, this mecha itself is an extraordinary weapon of great strength!

"No wonder the people who were watching me didn't care that I was near this statue...... After all, in their eyes, this is the safest place for them.

"But...... Is that really the case? ”

Thinking of this, the corners of Abner's mouth couldn't help but hook, and then he directly used the secret technique of manipulating the "bone dragon" loaded on the Book of Necrons, making the mecha more than three meters tall squat down, stretch out his palm, and hold himself up.

- Because he had a short experience of manipulating Alvin Abraham's body, Abner was already quite proficient in it, and they were all themselves, and they were in the same spirit, and there was no need to be in tune with each other, so although this kind of manipulation was far inferior to the imperfect "doppelganger" secret technique, the basic movements could still be done.

At the same time, Abner also appeared and held up the "gear book".

When the residents of the "Morning Star City" gathered in front of the statue saw this scene, they were shocked, and they didn't know who took the lead, but they actually bowed down and saluted together, and shouted the prophecy one after another:

"The morning star will shine, and evil will be far away......

"Emperor, have you returned?"

Due to the different sound-generating devices, electronic sounds, vibration sounds, and other sounds are chaotic for a while.

At this time, the three members of the Supreme Council in the office on the seventh floor of the tower could no longer sit still, and almost instantly, the three of them used their own means to descend from the sky and came to the statue.

They wanted to wait and see what the uninvited guest was trying to do, and it was better to figure out the hole cards...... But now, seeing his missionary posture, he can't help but stop it.

With a buzz, the black mecha male jammer temporarily disturbed the sound generating devices and listening outfits of the other people present, and only let their electronic speakers sound: "Your Excellency, who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

"I am an apostle of God......

Abner replied with a smile as he looked at the three men in power who looked unusual at first glance.
