Chapter 123: Sealed in Memory
Heidi ran up to Vana out of breath, and a nearby guard subconsciously wanted to stop her when they saw her approaching, but soon recognized the embarrassed young lady as a senior advisor to the town hall and the church, and immediately let her go.
"It turned out that you were leading the team personally, Heidi looked at the heavily armed Vanna in surprise, and then glanced at the elite of the church behind the other party, "And bring so many people?"
"Fires in museums aren't common," Vanna said briefly, then looking Heidi up and down
Several times, after confirming that this friend was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It looks like your vacation is in vain." "It's 'again' in the soup!" Heidi said with a sad and resigned face, "Why am I always so unlucky...... Ahh...............h
Vanna noticed the chic bag on Heidi's head, and stepped forward to caress her fingers near the other's wounds.
At the same time, he looked in the direction where Heidi had just run, and his brows furrowed slightly: "You just escaped?"
"I was saved...... Whew, it's so much more comfortable......" Feeling the pain on her forehead gradually subside, Heidi's attention gradually focused, and then she was stunned for a moment, as if suddenly remembering something, and then quickly looked around, and then suddenly approached Vanna's side, "I need a quiet and blessed environment, preferably in the church."
Seeing her friend's suddenly serious expression, Fanna reacted quickly, she didn't ask anything, but turned her head and ordered the priests she brought: "Take over the order of the scene, lock off the museum, and raise the pollution level to the spirit level...
Before she could finish her sentence, she heard Heidi whisper and speak urgently, "Secluded level."
"Adjust to the secluded level and expel all ordinary people within two hundred meters of the square!" Frightened, Vanna immediately commanded, then turned to the bearded district pastor: "Take us to the nearest church, we need a separate prayer room—incense 16 on hand."
The priest who had just escaped from the fire immediately lowered his head: "Yes, please come with me, it's near the square."
Vana quickly left the square with Heidi and drove with the pastor leading the way to the neighborhood church near the square, and before arriving at the church, Vana noticed that Heidi's face began to flush unusually.
"What's going on?" Vana frowned and touched Heidi's forehead, and the heat at the tentacle made her tone change instantly, "Why is it so hot?!"
"I may have been exposed to something in the museum," Heidi said quickly, "and I used self-hypnosis to block some information in the depths of my memory, and the hypnotic effect just ended...... I'm gradually reminiscing. Listening to Heidi's story, Fanna's eyes widened slightly, and she quickly made a judgment in her heart-
Heavily polluted by transcendent visions, cognition alone can have an impact on the real world.
"Stop remembering and slow down your thoughts," Vanna reached out and pressed Heidi's shoulder, "look me in the eye and turn your attention elsewhere!" If you really can't do it, hypnotize yourself again!"
"I try." Heidi took a soft breath, she looked at Fanna's eyes as deep and calm as the ocean, trying to control the memories that were gradually emerging in her mind, to control herself not to recall the magnificent and solemn current of fire, not to recall the sea of fire that gushed and tumbled in the dark void space, but the memories were still oozing out little by little
It was like blood oozing from a wound, and it couldn't be stopped.
But suddenly, a slight chill came from her chest, which made Heidi, who already felt that she was about to be engulfed in flames, suddenly sober up a lot.
She subconsciously glanced down, only to see that the glass "crystal pendant" that was placed in the antique store in the lower city and could only be used as a gift was shining slightly on her chest.
That faint glow was almost imperceptible to the naked eye, but it was like an anchor firmly rooted in the real world, pulling her dying spirit back.
The next second, she heard the pastor's voice coming from the front: "We're at the church!"
Escorted by the powerful saint Vanna, Heidi was quickly sent into the church, where a prayer room had been prepared and incense, which had a powerful soothing and sheltering effect, had been lit thanks to the priest's psychic message to the church in advance.
In the faint smoke of incense, the icon of the storm goddess Grimona silently looked down on Heidi and Vanna, who had hurried into the room.
The pastor was left outside the prayer room because he might not be able to withstand the mental taint that might ensue next
Dye.
And the moment Heidi stepped into the prayer room, Vana heard the illusory sound of the waves ringing in her ears, a feeling of direct gaze from the Supreme Being swept over her soul, and immediately afterwards all the lamps and candles in the church began to burn, and the blazing flames were mixed with crackling and popping!
She looked up at the Storm Goddess's icon, and saw that it suddenly seemed distant and majestic, and an indescribable majesty was being released from the icon and gradually focused on Heidi.
The vision in the prayer room of "the Lord has looked upon ........." startled Vanna, but then she breathed a sigh of relief,
She looked at Heidi and noticed that the flush on the other's face was fading, "You're safe now, release your memory."
Remember, let's see what you see. ”
Heidi didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and then took off one of her earrings, which had a small deformation mechanism at the end, and she pulled the mechanism with her fingernails, and a spike only a few millimeters long popped out of the earring.
Without hesitation, she clenched the spiked earrings so hard that blood seeped out of her palms.
This is the deepest hint she has imprinted for herself at the beginning of her career as a psychiatrist—when the platinum spike pierces the heart of the student, she can release all the unclean things sealed in her memory.
In the next second, the illusory and cascading sound of the waves in the prayer room suddenly became extremely obvious, and all the burning candles became dim and flickering again, and the whole room seemed to be covered with a shaking, blurred veil, and the layers of veils shook around the goddess's icon, in which a vague phantom was reflected—
It was a scene that Heidi had urgently sealed in her memory.
That's just a glimpse of the truth in the moment.
In the flickering veil of illusion, Vanna saw what Heidi had seen:
In the pitch-black void space, a torrent of flames surged up, fiercer than any flame in the world, more thrilling than any great power created by human beings, it was like a huge wave of flames that swept across and devoured everything, and even a saint like Fanna suddenly tensed the muscles of his whole body when he saw it!
How far did that flame erupt in the darkness? Hundreds of thousands of kilometers? Million kilometers? Or even further? What is that? Is it pure flame? Or something more primitive than a flame, capable of touching some kind of power of eternal truth
Measure?
Vana held her breath for some time, she watched the flame stream rise in the darkness, and watched it gradually fall, the surging fire like a viscous paste, forming a strong and irregular arc in the dark void, until the illusion gradually dissipated, until the sound of the illusory waves around her gradually subsided, she could not react for a long time.
It didn't take long for her to suddenly feel as if the sea breeze was moistening her mind, and the gentle soothing of the Storm Goddess woke her up, and she looked at Heidi, only to find that Heidi was also staring at her in amazement.
"This ...... Is that what you see in a museum?"
"Probably......... Isn't it......" Heidi felt her heart pound, even though it was taken from her own memory, but it was still beyond her imagination due to the effect of self-hypnosis, "but this thing...... It's not like a 'collection' that can be put in a museum.
"It can't be a 'collection,'" said Vana quickly, "and I can't tell how big it is, but intuitively, I know it can't be housed in any building...... You can't see it in the real world.
Heidi was stunned, her brow furrowed tightly, and after a long time she said uncertainly: "I may have seen it in a coma...... and self-hypnosis was carried out in a coma. I may not be seeing the entity or the ontology, but the projection of it on a spiritual level."
"Are you sure?" Vanna looked at the other person, "I'm not questioning your ability as a psychiatrist, it's not easy to complete the temporary containment seal of mental contamination in a comatose state.
"I'm confident," Heidi nodded slowly but firmly, "I've been trained in this area at the Academy of Truth to contain dangerous information only subconsciously when the main consciousness is out of control, but because of the uncontrollable nature of self-hypnosis in this situation, I will forget a lot of key information, so I can't answer what it was like for you and me to see this 'projection', and I don't know what the trigger or medium was for seeing it."
… Well, I trust your professionalism," Vanna stared at Heidi for a moment before exhaling softly, "Look...... You've seen something amazing.
