Chapter 171: As Long as You're Ready, Death Won't Catch You Up (6200)
"Demons are part of that stuff. But it's a very special part. β
After saying this, Carlos's momentum retracted, and the light in his eyes completely faded, turning back to his previous comfortable and relaxed appearance.
The eldest prince smiled at Yin En and raised the wine bottle: "I'm sorry, I should have scared you just now - in fact, ordinary people won't be scared by me, but because you are too strong among your peers, and you are a keen spiritual ability like a prophet, you will perceive some additional things that you shouldn't perceive...... It's my fault, punish myself with half a bottle. β
After saying that, he really drank half a bottle in one goβYin Eun seriously suspected that he was just looking for an excuse to drink.
"Hey. When I see you, I think of my brother, who is just as cautious and careful as you are, and can't let go when he should let go. β
Putting the wine bottle down, Carlos glanced at Yin Eun and said, "At this time, shouldn't you say that I just want to drink?" Although you haven't revealed any flaws in your demeanor, and you haven't leaked any expression and emotion, can't I guess what a person like you will think? β
"This is how brothers and younger brothers communicate with each other in order to enhance their relationship...... We're too. He shook his head rather unhappily: "But don't learn from Mikael, even if a person like him can succeed in the future, he will only be a second grandfather." β
"That's a bit of a contradiction." Yin En couldn't help but complain: "No wonder His Highness Mikael didn't want to discuss you at all when he chatted with me." β
"I said don't let my brother repeat the mistakes of the past and follow the old path of grandpa, what's so rebellious?" Carlos looked at Yin En rather strangely, and he shook his head and said, "You outsiders always refer to Grandpa as some kind of Black King and Pioneer Emperor, but to us, he is just a strong and kind grandfather...... Mikael just didn't treat his grandfather as a grandfather, but as a ...... Well, myths and legends? Legendary Ancestors? β
"Who's weirder?" He looked up at the ceiling: "Grandpa has failed, we have to learn the lesson he learned with his life." β
"First of all, the most important thing is to turn more people into our people."
At this point, Carlos narrowed his eyes, he lowered his head, and stared at Yin En seriously, until Yin En felt a little hairy, the prince spoke: "Of course, this is indeed the means I use to gather intelligence...... In the past, when I was walking around the world, I often used this uninhibited appearance to attract people, guiding those who were cautious and cautious, even autistic, to reveal their true nature, and then peek into their hearts. β
"I will communicate with them, make friends from the heart, and then I will know their desires, their desires, their ambitions and desires."
"Over time, when I awaken my spiritual energy, I will be able to see through the real 'dreams' and 'thoughts' in their hearts."
Carlos generously revealed the truth about his psionic abilities, and Yin Eun actually knew about it for a long time.
Dream. This is the truth of Carlos's psionic ability, the specific ability is not known for the time being, but probably, it can guide the limit of a person's strength in dreams, and use special emotional bonds or thinking relationships, separated by thousands of miles, to bet his spiritual energy on people who need his spiritual energy to strengthen.
It's even a semi-automatic psionic ability that can be channeled and transmitted spontaneously without the need for Carlos to actively control it.
In other words...... If nothing else, Carlos' psionic skills aren't simple at all - he can interfere with the mechanics of his psionic use and program his psionic energy!
The person in front of him is a strong person who can study the technique of 'divine power transmission'! If you have to say, in terms of the skills of the gods and spirits, Carlos's accumulation is far deeper than that of Yin En!
Even, the other party's divine power transmission technology is the most important factor in the spiritual calamity path path, and the spiritual calamity Yin En can expand the spiritual god line in the first time and popularize the whole Taila.
- I'm sure I worked with him on another alternate plane. And it's a very deep collaboration, and Carlos is indeed very easy to attract other people to him.
But he's not a 'good guy' either.
After Yin En actually met Carlos, he understood why the Magnetic Light Knight turned his back on the Marquis of Batun to serve him, and why there were his secret hands in the Gnostic Academy...... This is the right thing to do, with his status, ability to act, there should be so many people around him and become his 'friends'.
It's just that, like most of the higher-ups in the world of Terra, Carlos is a figure standing on the top of a mountain.
Not high enough, not low enough.
So, the purity is not enough.
"So, Yoon."
At this moment, just as Yin En was silently dissecting Carlos, the eldest prince smiled and raised the wine bottle to the white-haired boy: "If you have to say it, the dream of ordinary people is the wine you drink when you have a happy party." When I was ignorant, the things I thought about and the desires that came out of my instincts, and the ideas that slowly took shape as I grew up, gradually deformed under the beating of reality, and became real appearances. β
"Wanting wealth and status, wanting to be respected, or even simply wanting to have more women and men in this life - this kind of instinctive desire can also be regarded as a dream."
"And the dream of resentment is the desire that emerges from the depths of the soul when drinking to dispel sorrows, and even to relieve alcohol and quench hatred and paralyze oneself."
"Wine is the virtual realm."
The eldest prince knocked on the wine bottle, and the little bit of wine left in the wine bottle gushed out from the mouth of the bottle, floating in the air, and turned into a golden mist, like an ocean of mist.
"It is often said that the virtual realm is a mirror. The good and evil of man will be reflected and sublimated in the mirror, the good will become angels, and the evil will become demons - this is a legend, we all know that there are no angels in the void, only machine gods. But in a sense, the machine gods are no different from angels, except that they are not made up of human goodness, but people's desire for order, so they take the initiative to use technology, wisdom and justice to shape the spiritual machine. β
"Demons, actually, it's the same thing."
Carlos snapped his fingers at the sea of wine mist in front of the two of them, and the relatively transparent foam in the wine floated up and condensed into the appearance of a mechanized god.
Each of these mekhans is very different, but they all have a unique beauty, which is obviously not a random creation by Carlos, but a reflection of many mekhans he has seen in the past.
Soon, the muddy foam in the wine mist began to fall, gradually condensing into indescribable clusters, I don't know whether they were hideous and terrifying, or chaotic things that were difficult to recognize by human geometry.
"Demons don't really exist." The Great Prince stared at those chaotic things and said, "In ancient times, during the pre-era civilization, these things were pure imagination. They are just sporadic evil thoughts that exist in the subspace, some resentful spirits after death, and some cursed dreams...... They will pollute the psionics who have infiltrated the virtual realm, so that these psionics will be distorted, their temperament will change greatly, and they will be infected with demons, so there are legends of demons and devils. The Shrewds are the 'cleaners' who sweep away the pollution, and they will sweep away the pollution from a thousand angles, just like cleaning up the garbage in the house. β
"But demons with specific images didn't exist in the first place."
"But after the catastrophe, the demon really appeared. Just as humans created mekhans, there are beings that create demons in the void. β
Saying this, Carlos looked solemn: "The virtual realm is not a mirror. The Void is the sea. Whether it is a machine god or a demon, an angel or a devil, they are all part of the great bubble formed by the bubble of human dreams rising from the bottom of the heart and floating on the surface of the sea. β
"But just as humans create meka, it's the shaper behind the demons that counts."
"Yin Eun, you must pay attention to this when you seek demonic knowledge...... The existence of our human beings against Dragon Island is not those shadows, but the real darkness itself hidden behind the shadows. β
ββ¦β¦ I understand. β
Yin Eun also looked solemn, this is not a disguise, but from the heart.
And he also understood the true nature of the existence of demons.
- Isn't this the individual of some kind of extraterrestrial psionic civilization itself, or the fire creation they created?!
At the first moment, Yin Eun thought of the Flower of Karin.
Rooted in the dream realm, in the sea of human souls, absorbing the souls of all beings and turning them into themselves, and connecting all things, the flower of Karin is actually a demon in the strict sense - it is the most evil demon mother tree, an extremely evil existence that devours people's souls and creates hypocrisy.
In the same way, she is also a spark made by a psionic civilization.
And other demons, regardless of their type, probably have similar origins behind them? Even, just like the gods of the Imaginary Realm, they have begun to derive their own ecology in the Imaginary Realm, becoming a phenomenon and race that can be spontaneously generated and evolved spontaneously......
When demons appear in Terra's Shroud, they completely change the rules of the Shroud, becoming a phenomenon and race in the Shroud......
A kindling that is far easier to 'continue' than a physical tinder.
Just like the 'Blood River Armament' held by Yin Eun, it can gradually transform the user into a blood demon as the user dies and resurrects - this is an almost phenomenal transformation, turning the resentment and hatred of other creatures into the 'Demons of the Void Realm' on his side.
And the Blood River Armament was taken by Yin Eun's side this time, ready to be used by his other identity, 'Knight of the Hidden Valley'.
"Looks like you understand well."
Carlos was also satisfied.
The reason why he told Yin Eun so much confidential information was precisely because he had already cooperated with Yin Eun, and his support for Yin Eun's sect was his investment, so Yin Eun's sect naturally had to provide him with some help.
The information related to the demons in the Void Realm is a necessary part, and Yin En will have to contact this information after all, rather than letting Huaiguang or Shuo Ming come over, it is better for him to sell this favor.
And, it seems, Yin Eun doesn't seem to be ignorant of the Void......
"It's a goblin, right?"
The eldest prince opened his mouth and swallowed all the wine mist in mid-air, and he put the wine bottle down: "The goblin told you the truth of the Void Realm, right? This is very useful for the development of sects, even local sects in small countries, and even cults, can cultivate their own virtual realm gods with the dreams and teachings of the human heart...... On the side of the Dark Mountains, it seems to be called a totem ancestral spirit or something? Anyway, although the artificially created primitive machine god is not as powerful as the remnants of the previous era civilization, it has its own spirituality. β
"It is precisely with the power of these Void Realm Gods that they have a special inheritance and spiritual ability unique to the sect. Although it is very costly, it is indeed a way for us to better improve our own path of sublimation. β
"That's what Your Highness said."
This is another point. Yin En bowed his head earnestly and thanked him, although he had inferred it before, he didn't expect that the sect would shape the corresponding virtual realm machine god in the void realm by virtue of its doctrine and guiding people's hearts.
This process...... Isn't it just that primitive people used the open-source Limferous AI to create a program and struck out a psionic R artificial intelligence that served them!
- Outrageous, Terra.
Yin Eun sighed deeply in his heart.
After the wine is over, the time for the private meeting has passed, and the next thing to talk about is business.
"Master Singer and my nephew will be acting with you, that's fine, you've secured more explorers for the Empire, and that's your privilegeβand with Ethan here, it's easy for us to connect with each other, and if there's an accident, we'll be able to rescue you."
The Grand Prince of Carlos held the personnel file in his hand and muttered: "Amoknosdil (King of the Mountain) is your protector, strong or strong, but she may not be able to defeat me, and her speed will definitely slow down in the labyrinth, don't see her when the time comes, don't give her face, just call me." β
"Of course not."
Yin Endao, at this moment he was really a little curious: "You seem to have a good relationship with the King of the Mountain, I remember that the real dragon will not casually tell others his real name......"
"After all, having fought side by side for a while, it's a bit of a feeling."
Carlos smiled: "Speaking of which, you have a second energy level, and it will be convenient for Amo to take you to Dragon Island at that time, but don't lose the face of our empire in front of the real dragons." β
"Doesn't there be a formality?" Yin En raised his eyebrows, he still thought that he had to report to the empire: "I've been thinking about who to find to prepare when the time comes." β
"No, you don't." Carlos waved his hand and said indifferently: "A place like Dragon Island is open to all human beings and all intelligent beings...... It's just that ordinary people can't get close to it at all. β
"After all, it's in the sky, higher than the top of the mountain."
"I see......"
Yin En nodded thoughtfully, he really wanted to knock on the side and get the perspective of the imperial side of the True Dragon camp from the mouth of the Great Prince, but at present, it seems to be very friendly?
Well. Indeed, if the true dragon is really the guardian of civilization and the creation of the star gods...... Then they are indeed all living beings, friends of all civilized beings.
"Speaking of which."
After communicating with Yin Eun about the next cooperation procedures and related matters, when everything was almost over, Carlos suddenly remembered something before saying goodbye.
He smiled and said to Yin En: "Your prophetic prophetic ability, what kind of prophecy is it?" Forgive my curiosity, even I haven't met a few prophets, and I really want to know. β
- Looks like you've met other prophets, right?
Yin Eun silently accepted this information, and then said slowly: "I can see the 'future signs' that may appear when someone targets something. β
"Huh? Very specific and loose prophetic psionic ...... No wonder the result is just a sign that it is so strong! β
Carlos was obviously aware of some of the criteria related to the psionic abilities of the Prophet, and inferred that the more specific the conditions, the more relaxed the resultsβindeed in line with the situation where the Prophetic Horizon basically couldn't see anything, and everything was a foggy and hazy situation.
Moreover, the retrospective horizon launched for the extremely special emotional accommodation, the conditions are unclear and extremely harsh, but it is clearly like watching a videotape of the past.
"Can you prophesy me? For this exploration of the Xenomorph Research Institute, I know that there may be a backlash, if you don't want to, forget it, I'm just curious, I don't want you to really get hurt. β
This is probably one thing that everyone who meets the prophet, whether it is the prince emperor, the scholar or the warrior, wants to do - the eldest prince Carlos looked at Yin En with a curious expression, and he smiled and pointed his finger at his face.
He wanted the prophet to prophesy for himself.
"No problem, Your Highness."
Yin En lowered his eyes, and he chuckled: "The backlash is nothing more than a pain in the eyes, and the prediction of the fourth and fifth energy levels will bleed, which may be more serious for ordinary people, for a second energy level sublimator like me...... It's nothing more than ten minutes that are not very comfortable. β
"What's more, you are our safe backing, and you have instructed me so much today. For both public and private reasons, I have to help take a look. β
After speaking, Yin En raised his eyes, and the thin water-colored spiritual light flashed around the boy's child's hole, releasing a light as clear as a stream.
Then he saw it.
Pitch-black mist, like a dense rain cloud, surrounds the surroundings of the Grand Prince of Carlos!
"This ......"
At this moment, Yin Eun was really shocked, and he looked at Carlos with an incredulous expression.
The black mist represents a certain deathβbut how is that possible? What is it, what monster, what enemy can make the Grand Prince of Carlos, who is inherited by the Sun God Bird, fall into a mortal situation?!
And Carlos also noticed the meaning of Yin Eun's expression, and his expression changed from relaxed to cautious.
"Oh?"
He narrowed his eyes, looked at his hands, and muttered, "It seems...... Isn't it a good ending? β
"Even me, will I die?"
He was silent for a moment, then smiled, "No." I already know. β
"As long as I am ready, death will not find me...... The art of deception, even I will be tricked? β
"Yin Eun."
Carlos raised his head, he looked at Yin Eun, his eyes blazing: "Do you still have the strength to look at it again?" β
"Of course."
Yin En rubbed his eyes, and he also solemnly activated the foresight horizon again and looked at the eldest prince.
But, the astonishment is.
The dark fog is rapidly changing.
The blackness fades like the darkness of the night illuminated by light; The blood recedes, like a shadow that retreats in front of the midday sun.
When Carlos sat in front of Yin Eun, like a solemn statue, there was no black mist around his body...... All that was left was a little red blood glimmering.
"It's still dangerous."
Yoon Eun exclaimed from the bottom of his heart: "But it's like a miracle - death has retreated!" β
"Scars, destruction, may bleed or defeated...... At most, at best, in just a moment, Your Highness, you have gone from the place of mortality to the place of life! β
Carlos didn't reply, he just stood up, came to Yin Eun, and hugged the white-haired boy heavily.
"You saved my life, little prophet."
He said sincerely, without the slightest suspicion that Yin Eun was exaggerating before, deliberately pretending to be dangerous to deceive: "If I were Sister Allegria, I would definitely hug you a lot and kiss you fiercelyβbut I'll forget it." β
Letting go of his hand, he laughed, patted Yin En's shoulder, and then walked to the door of the living room, and said quite distractedly: "It's really funny, sure enough, you can't stay in the imperial capital all the time, people will rust." Even I would die in an accident, Terra is such a world! β
- Do you mean that the Grand Lady of Alegria will take advantage of me? And temptation again!
Yin Eun was slapped with a little shoulder pain, but fortunately, he took the initiative to remove most of the defensive essentia on his shoulder, otherwise, the power of the Forerunner of Steel would have been discovered!
Communicating with these high-level people really can't be careless!
"Yin Eun, remember!"
Before opening the door, Carlos left one last paragraph: "Just be ready, death won't find you...... As a prophet, you must keep this in mind! β
"And, since the people have arrived, let's set off the day after tomorrow."
"Isengard will probably be ready to advance to the second level tomorrow, he will catch up with you, and guide the other party well - there are not many nephews I can fancy to."
After speaking, the eldest prince Carlos left. He wasn't in a hurry, but it was clear that he knew the dangers of the expedition and needed to make some preparations immediately.
He didn't ask Yin about his dreams, maybe he had seen it clearly, maybe all the prophets would have that kind of ambition that didn't need to be spoken, but everyone could understand.
Yoon sat where he was, he lay on the couch and didn't leave right away.
"Interesting...... The eldest prince is such an interesting person. Everything he said was true and false, and there was no certainty about what he said...... I also understand the reason why the Marquis of Batun and he can't talk together, this is an obvious rejection of the same kind! It must be interesting to see them sitting at a table and chatting. β
γ
The boy muttered to himself, as if he was deliberately trying to tell the others, and as if he was just talking to himself: "The art of deception...... Demons, and dragons. There are countless fogs lurking behind history, and I learned a lot this time, which is really itchy. β
"Even a prophet can't see through the fog."
"But that's also a good thing β if you know everything, if you know everything, you don't have the fun of exploring."
At this moment, Yoon Eun felt emotion from the bottom of his heart.
It is worthy of the Xenomorph Research Institute of the pre-era civilization, the birthplace of the Tao of Ascension - everything seems to have gathered here.
Danger, death, even the fourth level is almost an unavoidable crisis.
Even the dumbest fool will know that there are mysteries in that place that no one can find the truth, and that there are traps that can trap everyone in a labyrinth.
But that's exactly what it is.
It's itchy.
Standing up, Yin En stretched, shook his head and said, "It's time to go back and make a little more preparations." β
He left the Imperial Embassy and returned to the fourth floor of the Endlamp Mansion under the awe-inspiring gazes of the staff and members of the exploration team.
As the eldest prince Carlos said, his best friend Isengard is about to advance to the second level today.
