Chapter 19: Escape from the One
The moment he saw the blue sky, Russell was shocked like never before.
If it were the natives of this world, I am afraid that there would be no reaction to this.
They just think naturally...... This clear blue sky with a hint of white clouds is unique to this area.
Not even the deer head statue mentions this.
She had only told Russell that there would be widespread thunderstorms or acid rain in some of the areas that followed.
This illustrates...... At least at the time of the Sharia Wars, the sky was already gray.
But in an even older, non-existent past, it is possible that the sky would still be blue.
So, when exactly should it be?
When the old elves were young?
Was it 1,200 years ago? Or is it earlier than that?
Long before the birth of the Immortals, it was a secret that only the immortal dragons knewβit was possible.
But there is only one thing that Russell was able to make clear at once:
For example, the behavior of claiming that "this sky should be blue" is actually risky, as it did to Morgan and Xiao Liuli before.
Whether it's Delphinch, the inferior, or Morgan, they are all born with microchips. I can't enter the dream world, so I can't see it.
However, for the elves and the "born uncensored" of the lower city, this kind of language is thought-provoking.
Although they certainly don't know what kind of sky Russell is referring to, they will also think of the scenery unique to the "original wasteland", and wonder if Russell knows a mage or has entered the dream world.
This is a crooked hit.
ββ¦β¦ Tut. β
Russell smacked his lips, calmed down, and began to walk forward.
β¦β¦ In fact, to be serious, the problem is not very big. At least not too big for now.
Fortunately, Russell's time to enter the dream world was early enough, and not many people knew about it. He will be able to close this loophole in time...... It's just that Russell can't easily explain to outsiders how he got the code name "Ultramarine".
But Russell immediately thought of another interpretation: ultramarine is the most calming color, and at the same time the most vivid blue.
In front of unfamiliar people, let's use this set of rhetoric first......
- In the future, the only people who can know that the true meaning of "ultramarine" is "sky" are those who can be fully trusted by Russell.
ββ¦β¦ What is this," Russell complained, "and it feels like the man in the middle is a masked hero of Sky Man." β
Coincidentally, Russell is really a "hero" now......
"However, this environment ...... It's all too real, too. β
Russell reached out to cover his mouth and nose and walked through the sand under the protection of his goggles.
The blazing sun above his head and the hot wind blowing in his face further accelerated Russell's physical exhaustion.
The dream world blurred the nature of time, making it impossible for Russell to even tell how long he had been gone. But at least it was far beyond the time he could transform into a Blue Song Robin...... And now Russell hasn't changed back, and he hasn't been kicked out of the dream world.
At least the first level has been passed - this shows that the vulnerability of the chip-based "Mind Firewall" that Lu Shouxiang speculated at the beginning is indeed useful.
The principle of this chip intercepting others from entering the dream world should be divided into two parts.
As long as you have a chip in it, you won't enter the dream world...... The proof is that after Russell regained the memories of his past life, he entered the dream world for the first time today. The difference is that he has been replaced with a body with a "no chip". Moreover, the elves of the old era did not assemble chips, but only assembled chips for the new elves after the birth of the Sharia War, which should be to maintain their ability to enter the dream world.
At the same time, even if you don't have this chip equipped, as long as you have equipped this chip for more than three years, even if you take out the chip, you can't enter the dream world - the evidence is those uncensored people in the lower city.
The only uncertainty is what this "three-year" criterion is.
"Is it the flesh, the mind...... Or is this awakened psionic nature? β
Russell pondered.
His own example proves at least that the seal is not based on memory.
After he awakened the memories of his sealed past life, the memories of more than 20 years in this life were still intact; After he became a blue robin, this memory still exists. If this chip is continuously fed him with some kind of disturbing thoughts or memory fragments, then even if Russell awakens the memories of his past life and changes his body, he should not be able to enter the dream world.
And after so long after entering the dream world, Russell has not changed back or been kicked out...... This proves that the moderation mechanism of the dream world is very loose.
If Russell hasn't been kicked out when he gets into the next zone.
Russell can directly conclude that the mechanism of the collision between the dream world and the chip only takes effect at the "moment of entering the dream world".
If the blockade of the chip comes from the physical body, then the people who bypass the blockade of the chip and enter the dream world should not be the only ones in the lower city of the "new mage".
After all, the spiritual power of the transformation system is not only possessed by Russell. This is a fairly common category...... Because "I want to become something" is a common fantasy. Peter Pan's psionic abilities can also be classified as shapeshifting, as he became his "younger self". There will always be a person's transformation form, which is a state without a chip...... This was the case with Peter Pan in the past, for example.
Russell's peculiarity is not that he has multiple transformations, but that he himself does not know what his next transformation will be, and that he still holds the psychic power of the other party without his transformation.
This is a normal and absolutely impossible situation.
Psionic energy itself is a kind of "deep instinct", how can you not know what you want to become? And since the desire is to become someone else, how can it be possible to have power when there is no change?
This is completely conflicting.
However, according to the deer head...... Aside from the mad mages on the ground, only those "born uncensored" in the lower city can enter the dream realm.
This shows that this prohibition is not on the flesh.
Then there is only one possibility.
That is, the "desire" of awakening psionic energy itself will be polluted by chips.
Because Russell's psionic energy comes from the memories and experiences of his previous life - the moment he was born into this world, he awakened the psionic energy of the Red Shift level of two levels.
β as Russell's parents said back then.
I am afraid that only "those who are born to know" can circumvent this restriction.
That being the case, even if Russell wears this chip for more than three years, he will not be banned from entering the dream world.
If we say that spiritual abilities such as "lethal love" and "eternal hibernation" are actually flowing and inherited among the people in a form that has nothing to do with blood, origin, or spiritual kinship...... Then it can be understood that all the spiritual energy in this world can be made into a "picture book".
Therefore, the old elf on the airship had no surprise that Russell used Alice's psionic energy.
In his opinion, I am afraid that Russell is the spiritual inheritor of Alice's "immortal vessel".
Perhaps among the elves, there is an atlas that records the secrets of these psykers.
A demon containment mechanism such as a "reinvention mechanism" can also be a psionic research mechanism.
Then the fact that Bad Day and the Deer's Head - and those elves have not seen Russell's psionic abilities at all can be explained.
Because Russell's psionic energy does not exist in this world at all.
"I see......"
Russell muttered, looking up at the brilliant sun.
It was a bright and glorious day on the empty island, under the gray sky, and it was a bright and prosperous day that had never been seen before.
"Even if there are a thousand different psionic abilities in this world, and these psionic abilities are all recorded, all of them have been analyzed by the elves and sorted out countermeasures......
"βMy psionic power must be the thousandth and one they have never seen before."
