Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Tower Doomed to Overturn
Listening to the words of the deer head, Russell captured a detail.
ββ¦β¦ You've never been surprised that I know so much that I shouldn't know. β
"'Because I know that you are born to know.'" The 'Born to Know' is not particularly rare, and the memories they awaken are not rootless duckweed...... Usually they are great men born in earthly times. Because this phenomenon originates from the occasional fierce waves in the sea of the subconscious of the group, it can also be understood as the occasional 'bug' in the operation of the world. ββ
"I don't think it's a 'past life' or something like that."
"'Of course.' β
Lu Shouxiang replied without hesitation: "'There are not so many unscientific things in this world. ββ
For some reason, Russell felt like laughing when he heard this.
Because in fact, in his cognition, whether it is soul, psychic or magic, it is something that is "absolutely unscientific......
And the next words of the deer head made Russell frown slightly-
"'This phenomenon occurs because certain souls that are too tenacious and pure are able to transcend life and death to a certain extent...... To be more specific, it is a psionic person who has awakened the spiritual energy of level 8 or above and has not lost control until death. If they die, their demons will sink into the sea of the subconscious of the group like other psykers. β
"'But after crossing the walls of Leviathan, their memories, personalities, and intellects merge with the demons. The so-called 'Leviathan' is a sea monster in ancient mythology. The reason why the last barrier of psionics is called the Leviathan Wall is because the 'sea' here does not refer to the physical ocean, but to the sea of the collective subconscious. A monster that devours all memories in the sea of the group's subconscious - of course, there is no such thing. However, psychiatric researchers have adopted the term "Leviathan Wall" for the phenomenon of "the memories of psychics that remain in the demon's body after death are emptied". β
"'If a person dies without losing his memory, then after countless reincarnations he becomes extremely powerful. His will will will be extremely strong, and his spiritual power will be the purest...... And what prevents this possibility of evolution can be called a 'wall'. The word "wall" here also means "obstruction". The walls of Behemoth and the Zodiac refer to similar 'obstacles'.
"'And if the walls of Leviathan are crossed, then the psyker's memories will not be immediately erased by death. Rather, it gradually wears out over time, and will not completely dissipate even if it is integrated into the sea of the group's subconscious for tens or hundreds of years. At this time, if a newborn can attract a sleeping demon, it will also inherit the memory that has not yet been worn out when the demon possesses it. This phenomenon is known as the 'born knower'. ββ
β¦β¦ But in this case, everything will not work out again.
Listening to the meaning of the deer head, they don't seem to have any doubts about the existence of "psionic energy". It's as if it's the truth that accompanies the world.
But Russell is very sure that he was definitely not a psychic in his previous life.
He's a white-collar worker...... It's just a PR manager in a game company that hasn't been released yet, and doesn't have any well-known works!
And from the meaning of "mentor", there is a direct reason why she came to this world...... That is to say, the mentor also acknowledges that this is not Russell's original world. His mentor is most likely the boss of his previous life.
But the "people who are born to know" in this world should all have awakened high-level spiritual abilities in this world.
Reminiscent of Sal having seen his birth......
Russell finally understood everything -
His soul is most likely not in this world when the baby "Russell" was born.
- He was already in!
But because he had no body, his soul was shattered as soon as he arrived. And his talent and knowledge allowed him to awaken the primordial demon of the "Vessel of God" immediately after entering this world, and it inherited all of Russell's memories and then sank into the sea of the group's subconscious.
Through this means, he was bleached and registered in this world.
After that, the vessel of the gods was possessed by the "Russell" of this world, and the baby Russell awakened the moment he was born...... Along with Russell's memories, he was wrapped in the vessel of the gods and became the "memory of his past life" awakened by Russell in this world.
No wonder!
That's why you can be seen by "fate", awaken your holy rank, and enter the "dream world" composed of the group's subconscious...... Because he was not an alien traverser from the very beginning! But after soaking in the sea of the group's subconscious, the aborigines who were incomparably legitimately registered!
It's just that his household registration follows the "Vessel of God".
"So, is it a 'container'......"
What it holds is Russell's memory!
In this way, the "will of God," which can never be recognized by the world, was implanted in the aborigines. And it retains the possibility of him entering the dream world.
And for what is the purpose of letting him enter the dream world?
- For unlocking!
The subconscious psionic potential of this world group has been sealed, resulting in the psionic qualifications that everyone originally possessed were only possessed by a few people who were sealed and leaked. This is called "talent".
"Shura Warrior God"
Others heard the call of "human consciousness" or something and went to the dream world. I hope to be able to break the seal...... Therefore, the ultimate goal of all mages is to go to the "Tower of the End"!
Why do you see the Black Tower when you enter any area?
Because that's not a tower!
It's a crack that can be seen from any space, a vertical keyholeβ
If you go in that direction, you'll never get to the Black Tower!
Those mages are like donkeys led by carrot fishing rods. I walked in the direction of the carrot, but I couldn't reach it for a lifetime.
Because they don't need to go at all!
Once you have the key, you can open the key in any area.
Any mage in the dream realm will probably be able to see ...... "Tower of the End Suddenly Collapse" at that time.
But it wasn't the tower toppled, the keyhole was horizontally closed, and the door was opened.
So, the only problem becomes......
Why don't the elven directors and dragons open that lock?
Russell suddenly raised his head and looked at the deer head: "That's why the Tower of Babel is looking for the real historical ......"
"'Now, do you understand?' β
The deer head asked rhetorically, "'I have never deceived anyone. If we can find the true history, we can save the world. β
"'Because none of our forerunners knew the meaning of these two locks. Only the dragon knows all the secrets...... But the dragon refused to answer us. They are cold, inflexible machines, emotionless artificial intelligences. Tell them that you will never get an answer. β
"That's why, some elves seek history, and some elves refuse to pursue history. And all dragons will ban history. β
"That's why I say 'the lack of resources is not a problem,' 'the destruction of the world, the disputes of the people,' everything can be saved if the right history is found.'"
"'That's why the Tower of Babel was born.'
"'You may not know, or you may know. The Tower of Babel is a tower destined to topple...... It is also a tower that reaches to heaven. It was a tower that humanity had united to build in the hope of leading to heaven, and it eventually collapsed under the intervention of the 'gods'. β
"'What we really want to do is to overturn the black tower of the dream world and open the heavens again. This name is not for us, but for the Black Tower. Everything we do now is to prove history and gain the support of other pioneers. Even if the dragons never support us, we can open at least one lock if all the Precursors are willing. Look at the truth and find out. β
"'Sometimes, history has power and truth has weight.'
"'Even if it is destined to be a dark future - but even if it is death, we want to die to understand.' β
