Chapter 206: True Goddess Reincarnation (13)
If you can wake up on your own will, it seems that the quality of the newcomer this time is good."
A little ridiculous voice sounded in their ears, startling the two who had just woken up from their dreams, but when they followed the sound and saw the familiar figure, they were immediately relieved.
"Originally, I thought you wouldn't be able to wake up on your own, it seems that you are much more powerful than I thought......" Wu Ming stopped them from wanting to stand up on their own, and reached out to pull the two of them up from the ground, "Don't move, your vitality has been drained a lot when you are asleep, and it is normal for you to lose your strength for a while, your brain is short-circuited, and you can't realize yourself......
As he spoke, he turned on the repair module and pulled out two balls of holy light to input into the two of them, quickly replenishing their drained life force, and soon Runtu and Christina recovered from their prostration.
"Master Wu Ming......" Runtu felt his strength gradually recover, and asked.
Wu Ming glanced at him and interrupted, "Runtu, how many times have I said it, the chairman's Night City is dead, why can't you change your habit of calling people master when you see them......
Runtu touched his head awkwardly and just sneered: "Get used to it, old Wu Ming...... Uh, Commander, what's going on? Why is everyone falling into a dream?"
"What else could it be? The church has formed a land refining array and is ready to refine you......" Wu Ming shrugged his shoulders and looked around at the residents lying on the ground around him, in the transcendent perspective, these people pulled out pale green life threads on their chests, intertwined and intertwined, extending along the invisible track towards the sky, and finally intersecting with the life lines rising in other blocks, merging into a huge being.
"Tut-tut, it seems that no matter which plane of church is the villain, it is already a foregone conclusion that the Pope will be the boss......
Although Runtu didn't understand Wu Ming's words that the content of this stalk was obviously beyond the standard, the well-informed lady traverser around him fully understood what he meant.
Christina: "You're saying that the church sacrifices the whole neighborhood, like ...... Just like when you were in Night City?"
Runtu also frowned when he heard this, "The sacrificial crisis in Night City has something to do with Apocalypse City?"
After the Night City incident came to an end, Wu Ming also learned from the mouth of the first hunter that the original function of the Night City Great Shield, in order to track down the mastermind behind the secret transformation of the shield into a national refining array, he brought some people who were willing to leave together to Apocalypse City.
Christina and Runtu were among the two who took the initiative to follow, and they naturally knew the purpose of the trip.
"I'll have to correct it, the scope of the mutation is the entire Apocalypse City." Wu Ming corrected, "And this familiar stroke, the structure of the technique is also roughly the same, it seems that the direction we are tracking is correct......
"Hiss......"
Christina gasped.
Apocalypse City is an urban circle composed of many "satellite cities" surrounded by urban areas, with a total of 10 urban districts and 22 blocks, and one block has roughly tens of thousands to 100,000 residents......
Christina couldn't imagine what an order of magnitude a million people were, but her memories that had become a little blurry due to multiple reincarnations still vaguely remembered that she had been to a concert - a sea of people, with no end in sight, shaking their light sticks, like waves rising and falling.
Even a large-scale show of that size is only tens of thousands of people......
In addition to the chills that ran down her spine, Christina's heart was more unreal.
Because the number of people affected is so large, it is difficult for her to imagine the scenario of millions of people being affected and even dying, but Christina did not continue to dwell on this issue, and there are more important things to worry about at the moment.
"Compared to these...... Is there a problem with Sister Liz's side? You can't leave her, can you?"
"Her condition was relatively stable at the time of the mutation, and it was not too much of a problem to leave for the time being." Wu Ming shook his head, then sighed and said, "But if you really have to calculate it, there is not much time left for me to solve the abnormality, I'm afraid I won't have time to send you to a safe area......
Christina frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, it's no problem here, we'll figure it out by ourselves next, but other people's words ......."
She swept her gaze across the street, clearly worried about the other members of the Axis Regiment and the civilians on the side of the road.
"I'm afraid it's hard to be saved all...... Wu Ming pondered, "The members of the Axis Regiment and the heretics have the protection left by that kid, and their ability to resist spiritual erosion and interference is stronger than others, and they may be able to wake up with only some external force, which is one of the reasons why you can get rid of the dream by yourself."
Then he changed his words: "But those who don't have protection are probably not so easy to wake up, and if the source of the problem is not solved, then even if the mind control is lifted, it will not be able to stop the slow flow of life force......
In Wu Ming's eyes, Runtu and Christina still have a thin lifeline leading to the sky, but compared to those who are asleep, their lives pass much slower.
"I see." Christina tried to put on a relaxed smile, "I'll leave it to us! We'll save as many people as we can!"
"You ......" Wu Ming glanced at the aristocratic girl deeply, the reincarnation of countless attempts to change the ending of Night City had already made this girl's spirit far tougher than he imagined, so the persuasion on his lips also turned into advice, "Do what you can, don't think of yourself as a savior, save as many people as you can......
"Don't worry! I've looped through Night City many times, and I'm not as fragile as you think." Christina bent her elbow and poked Runtu on the side, then turned around and walked quickly towards the nearest unconscious passerby: "Alright, Runtu, we should go!" We can't waste any more time, and if we act sooner, we might save more people......
Runtu was also a little hurried to say goodbye to Wu Ming, and then turned around and hurriedly followed Christina, and bandaged the wounds of passers-by who passed out and were injured with her for emergency treatment.
There may not be a way to wake them up, but at least these dispositions will keep them alive for the time being.
"Looks like it's going to have to be done quickly."
Wu Ming sighed as he looked at the two figures who were busy treating civilians, as if talking to himself and as if whispering to the girl on the other end of the spiritual link.
"According to the conventional development, at this time, it should be equipped with a BGM and then go to the decisive battle...... You're right? Elizabeth."
「……」
In the past, there would be a warm spiritual link, but this time there was no familiar echo. ……
Rewind time to not so long ago.
Crown District.
Ascend to the Cathedral and ascend to heaven between.
The majestic timbre of the organ is intertwined with the ethereal and ethereal singing of the choir, the endless light illuminates every inch of darkness, and the intricate lines of the floor and dome decorated with demonic materials shine brightly, setting off the ascension to heaven with more sacred and solemn than before.
"The time of appointment has come, the time of appointment has come......
Pope Saliwan on the throne murmured like a dream.
"The Lord Will Give His Final Will......
The old man was no longer as energetic and in good condition as he had been some time ago, his eyes were cloudy, his body had shrunk by several points, and his mouth was whispering indistinctly like phlegm, looking like an ordinary old man suffering from Alzheimer's, but the clergy present did not dare to despise this frail old man because of his appearance.
Everyone could clearly feel the majestic power that was confined to that skin.
The ethereal singing and endless brilliance accompanied by the sacred melody is proof of this.
The choir and musicians had long since been retired, and only the high-ranking clergy had gathered between the ascensions, and the supernatural power condensed in Saliwan's body had reached a level that could affect the environment and his mind, and when he decided that the throne should be infinitely radiant and the hymn should be played, the supernatural power surging around him distorted the environment into the state he had expected.
After another slurred murmur, the old man seemed to be a little more awake, and his cloudy eyes regained some brightness and slowly spoke.
"Hasn't Inquisitor Giovanni been found yet?"
"Your Majesty," the black-robed Grand Inquisitor replied in a deep voice, "The Inquisitor is still searching for his traces with all his might, the Divine Evil is very cunning, and he has been consciously and deliberately disrupting our tracking since his awakening, but we still speculate about his intentions—I am afraid that he wants to infiltrate the Crown District and even the Cathedral recently, and take advantage of the appointed day to rebel against our Lord again......
Pope Shaliwan snorted, he did not hold the Grand Inquisitor responsible, after all, the authority of the Divine Iniquity Sharing Lord is inherently stronger than that of mortals, and the host is an elite inquisitor who is proficient in reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, and the intention of tracing the Divine Iniquity in the internal hunting heretical rebellion trial has been extraordinary.
So he set his sights on the Knight Chief—unlike the Inquisition, which hunted rebellion and heresy, the knights of the Order were generally responsible for external conquests and hunting for iniquity.
"Renard."
"Your Majesty, the Grand Inquisitor has also consulted with me on this matter." Knight Chief Renard also reported in due course, "The appointed day is a matter of great importance, and I have selected brothers who have participated in the hunt of gods and sins to form several anti-god tactical teams to form several anti-god tactical teams to form garrison defense troops to assist the knights stationed in the ascension to identify the gods, and I will also personally guard the ascension between the heavens, as the sword of my lord to sweep away all invading enemies!"
"Very good......
Pope Salivan seemed very pleased with Reynard's fighting spirit, and then his gaze swept over the clergy, the bishops of the districts, the Holy Ministers, the Grand Inquisitor, and the Presiding Knights...... These people are old and young, men and women, and have been converted for a long and short time, but each of them is a devout and reliable believer of the Lord, and they have gathered here under the guidance of the Lord to become His right-hand man.
Now they will respond to the Lord's guidance.
They will awaken the gods here.
A god who belongs to humanity.
"Now, let's start the ritual."
Shaliwan slowly announced, the surging supernatural power spread out like a tentacle with his words, and the ascension to heaven was momentarily transformed into a sea of transcendent energy, and it was only now that the church, where most of the materials were made of demonic materials, showed its true usefulness.
The white light composed of transcendent energy diffused around the throne, like a flood rushing out along the intricate patterns carved on the floor and the dome, and as the transcendent energy outlined ten staggered circles, connecting them to the twenty-two paths, the four layers of the world with distinct hierarchies and three pillars leading to the apex were slowly taking shape, and the ritual array was soon presented in front of everyone.
"These are the sacrifices necessary in order for the true God to come to earth."
For this day, Shaliwan has gone through countless years of waiting and preparation, calculating and calibrating errors day by day, correcting the loopholes of the plan again and again, and consecrating the Church's inheritance for thousands of years, all for the arrival of this day.
「Diesirae,diesi! (the day of wrath, the time of the end)"
The red-robed clergy stood in the circle pattern, stabbing the silver daggers into their chests one by one, and with the extraordinary energy activating the spells under their feet, their flesh gradually disintegrated and turned into scattered particles of light, filling the circle particles under their feet, making them no longer ethereal rootless pinch.
They did not hesitate, they did not get confused, their fanatical devotion to the Lord allowed them to abandon the fear of death, and their devotion built a bridge to the outside world.
「solvesaulunfavi! (Everything in the earth will be burned up)"
The purple-robed clergy chanted feverishly, and the harmony around them grew louder and louder, and as they also sacrificed themselves to dissolve into particles of light, the twenty-two paths also turned into reality.
"Tese Daviuiy."
This was followed by the four worlds, where the three pillars and the triple infinite light were constructed as symbols hanging from the top of the crown particles......
For Saliwan, today's ritual also has a special meaning – tens of thousands of years of dedication have finally come to fruition today.
"Quanusreresfuurus, Diesirae, diesi (What a terrible trembling, the day of wrath, the time of the end)"
The tone of the stringed instruments became deeper and deeper, and the chores became more and more rapid, as if countless people were bewildered and confused in the repeated chanting in fear and trembling, in order to get answers to their questions.
"Quandojudexeenurus, Cuasrediussurus (When the end comes, all merit will be reckoned!) )」
"Cuasrediussurus, (All merit will be reckoned,)"
After a short and long period of repression, the symphony's melody began to rise to a high level, and the chant of the hymn became more and more intense, and the chant of the transcendent power stirred by Salivan was repeatedly chanted to reveal the answer before the eyes of the people.
「Cuasrediussurus! (All merit and demerit will be reckoned!) )」
"All sacrifices will be meaningful."
Shaliwan muttered softly, his consciousness drifting away, and he seemed to see a disturbance outside the gate between the ascensions, and then the movement of the fight broke through the barrier of the chant and loomed into his ears.
"Discover the Divine Iniquity!"
"She must not be allowed to obstruct the promotion ceremony......
"She's not aiming for the Holy See?! Whoever she's targeting, stop her!"
It looks like the gods have come to make trouble, but it's okay anymore.
Sha Liwan thought of this, but his heart was not shocked.
She was too late anyway.
There was no earth-shattering vision or a vigorous momentum, and the ritual continued to advance in silence.
The innocent people of the first ten districts fell into a sweet sleep at some point, and their pure fanatical thoughts and beliefs were solidified in the city and turned into the first nodes of new bodies;
Subsequently, the residents of the twenty-two blocks ushered in the redemption they longed for in a trance, and the vitality rushed in the ascension of the block, building a new circulation system for this behemoth;
Generations of believers have carved prayers and fantasies on this land for a long time, and now, with the support of rituals, the strong belief imprinted on this place has been transformed into a four-layer world, an open channel for new life to connect to the universe.
The soul of each of the clergy who gave their lives for this day was united by the dedication of Pope Salivan, and in the end they formed the three indispensable pillars of the new life.
There was a rhythmic movement of the earth as if something was being conceived and something was hatching.
Apocalypse City is detached as planned.
The Pope felt that the shackles of his aging body were getting smaller and smaller, and his spirit and consciousness, which had been washed away by the years, were gradually liberated from the weak flesh and merged with the foreign life force, which was very weak but superior in number, and as the transcendent energy and the almost massive life force washed over and over again, Saliwan's consciousness quickly grew strong.
Energy is becoming the tentacles of the will to extend, and the world in his eyes is beginning to become bizarre and abstract, like a watercolor painting mixed with countless paints, and the sound becomes a colorful halo of light, and the visible light exudes a sweet and delicious smell.
This is the embodiment of Saliwan's gradual adaptation to new life forms.
The aging and backward physical body is trying to make sense of the information felt by the new life form.
What will the world be like when human consciousness is freed from the life forms of the physical womb, when vision no longer relies on the lens and retina to capture visible light, and when hearing no longer relies on ossicles and tympanic membranes to transmit sound wave vibrations?
Shaliwan was already able to answer this question at this moment.
Magnificent.
Shock.
Stunning views.
Matter is no longer stable, they turn into endless ripples unfolding in front of their eyes, colliding with each other and canceling each other to form a fragile balance, the sound waves of air vibration turn into colorful light clusters that radiate in all directions, and the ubiquitous electromagnetic waves crowd the space of consciousness perception.
That's what it is...... Is the world really what it is?
Pope Saliwan's consciousness extended, his tentacles covered the tundra, the land swept through the blizzard, he crossed the mountains to see the abandoned city covered by endless forests, chased the sunset and swept the yellow sand of the Western Desert, crossed the morning and dusk line to the eternal night hemisphere and saw the city of night waiting to be rebuilt.
Atoms danced before his eyes, electrons leaped in his eyes, his speed of consciousness sensed the flow of light, time turned into eddies and rivers spread out before his eyes, as if he could interfere with the flow of time just by stretching out his hand, and even in that infinitely short second he "saw" countless possibilities superimposed on the "now" at the same time.
For the first time, he intuitively felt the magnificence and ...... of the world Shocked, gradually abandoning the sense of freedom and emotion of the flesh burst out from the bottom of my heart.
He metamorphosed, metamorphosed into higher life forms, and quickly adapted to new life forms.
"It's over, Saliwan."
However, just as he felt that he was about to abandon his aging body, a sentence that exploded in his ears like thunder suddenly knocked him back to the ground like a cloud.
The sense of freedom just now suddenly vanished, and he felt as if his fluttering spirit was grabbed by a big hand and dragged back to the world, and then a strong sense of restraint came as if his huge body was stuffed into a small space.
He was forcibly pulled back into that narrow and backward body.
Shaliwan struggled to open his eyelids, and in his confused vision, his lens and retina caught a familiar figure.
"Reynard...... Why?!"
"Reynard? Who's that?" The chief knight grinned, but his smile at the moment seemed extremely strange and terrifying, "In order to better steal my power, all the priests have mixed my bloodline into their bodies, and even the more advanced the priesthood, the purer this bloodline is......
"It's what you did that gave me the opportunity...... Didn't expect that, right? The god who was hunted by you a while ago has always been by your side, and looking at your appearance, I'm afraid I haven't used this trick in countless cycles before, right? But that doesn't matter now......
The Pope's expression became more and more gloomy as the other party spoke, until finally he caught a key word and his eyes widened in disbelief: "Cycle?! How do you know about loops?"
However, Renard pierced Salivan's chest with a sword, nailing the dying old man to the throne, and casually modified the connection flow of the Living Tree Array in the hall, cutting off the original energy circulation path of the ritual.
"Of course I do, otherwise how do you think I'm crazy?"
"Ahhh......hh How is that possible?" Pope Salivan's eyes widened as if they were about to fall out of his sockets, and at the last moment he seemed to figure out all the joints, why the end always came unexpectedly in countless reincarnations, and why every attempt he tried to save the world failed.
"So it's you? It's you!"
Sudden and remorse intertwined on his face, the old man didn't know where he got the strength to struggle violently even if he was nailed to the throne, he wanted to break free from the long sword pierced into his chest, he wanted to abandon his body again and continue to complete the act of ascension, but no matter how much he tried, he couldn't get the change he wanted.
Both the body and the consciousness seem to be firmly fixed with the space around the throne, and they do not move at all.
Connect.
Connecting and fixing the body, consciousness, and the space around it.
This is an outrageous power that only Elizabeth can do.
Shaliwan suddenly understood what Renard had done to him, life was passing rapidly from his body, and his expression became more and more crazy: "Do you think you have won? To save the world...... To save the world! I have been reincarnated for tens of thousands of years...... Even if I am reincarnated for tens of thousands of years, I will not give up no matter how many times I die!"
"I'll beat you! Even if you destroy us thousands of times or tens of thousands of times, I will challenge you again and again until you reclaim the future that rightfully belongs to us!"
He struggled to move his body, even grabbing his sword and piercing his chest bit by bit, just to get close to Reynard, who had been possessed by the gods.
"Monsters!"
His cloudy eyes were glazed over, and his life was coming to an end, but his eyes seemed to be burning with flames, showing his determination to never compromise.
"You should never try to defeat humanity!"
Renard condescendingly looked at the dying and struggling Shaliwan, he pointed like a knife to cut the skin of his palm, slightly clenched his fist and dripped the blood flowing out in front of the other party's forehead, watching the abnormal growth of flesh and blood due to blood quickly squeezing Shaliwan's entire face, the curse was gradually drowned, and after the whole head turned into a deformed sarcoma, he stopped the delivery of life force, and let the overgrown sarcoma decay rapidly, and finally left a withered corpse with an unusually large head.
"Rest in peace."
He looked at the dry skeleton for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking, only an ominous black mist lingering beside him.
"It's been a long dream......
"But soon all the pain will be over......
"You're right? Doll ......"
