Chapter 62: Divergent Paths

Perhaps, the different feedback given by Bai Ning to Gogol is the fundamental basis that Gogol used to verify reality and illusion.

Once the overlap between the two is too high, perhaps Gogol will begin to doubt the reality of reality, believing that the real environment in which he lives is just another fantasy of reality.

This state of mind of being in reality and doubting illusions is actually close to a state of madness, but it is only because of Gogol's excellent self-control ability, coupled with the distorted personality of the extreme ego, that his behavior is not so inconsistent.

"Meaning is such a thing, only when it is mastered can it have the value of verification.

The secret here is that the Soviets brought it out of the Tunguska region, and its existence is beyond doubt.

As for the so-called illusion, it is something that objectively exists in reality, you have already experienced it, and you know its harm and intensity all too well.

This is a trench that lies across the horizon, and as the official sources say, no meteorite fragments have been found in the Tunguska crater, and it is always the lucky few who can spy on absolute secrecy.

It is a mercy of God, a miracle that cannot be questioned like the resurrection of the dead.

Before people get it, all they think about is the meaning itself, and after they get it, they can only succumb to endless sighs and be shocked by the magic in front of them.

You ask me how many times I've been in the illusion and how long I've been there, are these things important?

With the four people just now, do you think they can determine for themselves how long they have been hallucinating?

The concept of time itself is a kind of nihilistic existence, a man-made concept of ephemeral, and once there is no reference, then time itself is meaningless. ”

Gogol's response was chaotic and complex, like that of a psychopath who had already begun to break down, but given his previous twisted mind and bizarre behavior, it was hard to be sure that this was a sign of Gogol's imminent collapse.

Perhaps, at this time, Gogol's expression is another wordplay to conceal part of the truth, and it is a vicious punishment for Bai Ning's offensive behavior.

They are now on the edge of the Labyrinth of Illusions, and they must step into the Labyrinth of Illusions if they want to uncover the secrets of the Outpost Research Base.

On the edge of this abyss, which is absolutely capable of devouring people's hearts, the lethality of any madness is enormous.

"In other words, you have more experience in the illusion than anyone else, and you know more about this place than anyone else, what do you think you need to pay attention to in the next adventure?

What exactly is the iconic presence that travels through the illusion? Is the third basement a special illusion? ”

Whether to go or stay, whether to live or die, these are all things that need to be faced at present, and it is impossible for Bai Ning to let Gogol continue to be an inactive bystander.

In the course of the next expedition, pulling Gogol into the illusion is a double-edged sword, which may destroy the entire team in an instant, but it will definitely be good for the flow of the situation in the field.

"Didn't I say that you are the key to the next expedition."

Gogol's response turned around and returned to the original stage again, and this repetitive emphasis made Bai Ning's importance of being able to remember the content of the illusion to the extreme.

Could it be that even though Gogol had gone deep into the illusion several times, he still couldn't remember all the contents of the illusion?

Perhaps, it is precisely because of this characteristic that he will become a beneficiary of the deep fantasy group.

Perhaps, this characteristic is also the fundamental reason why he repeatedly doubts whether real life is an illusion.

"Can't you remember what's in the illusion?"

Bai Ning was blunt, and he didn't mean to back down at all.

"It's a talent to be able to memorize fantasy content, and it's also a talent to be able to forget fantasy content."

Gogol's response shocked everyone present!

Forgetting, for a normal person, is a very random thing.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you want to deliberately forget something, you will often remember it more and more deeply because of repeated memories.

Some learning content that you don't want to forget will be forgotten unconsciously.

Being able to choose what to forget is even more amazing than being able to remember it.

Gogol stated that he had the ability to actively forget, which made Bai Ning shocked and a little suspicious that this was a superpower that Gogol had actively or passively learned in the deep illusion.

It is even rarer to be able to remember the special content of the illusion, and to be able to actively forget the content of the illusion.

Based on this characteristic, I think a little more far-reaching, whether the illusion maze in the outpost research base is a scene that can interact with each other, but the process of this interaction is extremely difficult, and the ability of individual interaction objects is extremely high.

As mentioned earlier, the Aryans claimed to be descendants of the Atlantean civilization, and Desan had also searched for the legendary Shambhala Cave in Tibet.

In this cave, it is also claimed that the ultimate mystery of the universe is hidden, which is logically similar to the secret of the world that Gogol said before.

The Illusion Labyrinth was developed by the Soviets on the basis of "world secrecy", which can be regarded as an application at the level of experience.

So, by analogy, if the Soviets learned in the Tunguska region that the world secrets contained the ultimate meaning of this world, is it possible that it is a system of spiritual interaction?

In other words, the so-called hallucination is actually the process of the nervous system asking questions autonomously, and doubts will better promote this process.

In this process, some people can get the results of their answers, some people can't, some people can remember the results of their answers, and some people can delete the results of their own answers.

Therefore, if the Illusion Labyrinth here is just a self-learning interactive software, it is a technological product from the Atlantean civilization.

Faced with this slightly bizarre reasoning result, Bai Ning also felt a little funny.

There are hundreds of thousands of smart people who died in this fantasy labyrinth, and in the end, they were just killed by an interactive learning software?

"Do you think it's important to be able to memorize the content of the illusion because you have determined that the order of the illusion maze can be followed, and you can analyze the generation mechanism of the illusion through a certain logical analysis?"

The previous speculation was too weird, Bai Ning naturally wouldn't tell it, and what he said at this time was just to test Gogol's overall attitude.

"Probably, you're the most vocal person here, and what you're talking about now is what you're talking about.

Your goal here is Tunguska, and it's up to you whether you want to do the rest of the expedition or not. ”

After Gogol said this, he stopped speaking, like a kind of agitation, and like a helpless statement of fact.

There is nothing wrong with the underlying logic of this statement, Bai Ning is here for the secrets of the Tunguska region, and there is no reason to give up halfway.

However, for this fantasy labyrinth with the color of ancient technology, Bai Ning really had no way at all.

Whether the illusion labyrinth here is the crystallization of ancient technology that is self-learning can only be understood if you try it yourself.

Is this how the second round of expeditions begins?

After hesitating for so long, the information obtained from Gogol may be very rich, but it may also be just a bamboo basket for nothing, the secrets of this world are still bizarre and unpredictable, and if you want to try, you have to pay the corresponding price.

Every step is thrilling, every step is death.

Even though it's just a ridiculously ancient self-learning software.

……

Picking four outlaws to re-follow the previous path, the outlaws on the sidelines all had a sense of eagerness, and the sense of fear seemed to be less intense.

At this time, only Bai Ning knew that the road behind might be one step at a time, and the experience of the previous four outlaws might just be an appetizer for the subsequent crisis.

A familiar cold feeling lingered all over my body, and when I stepped into this familiar corner again, everything in front of me did not change in the slightest.

The doubts in my mind seem to have been generated, and I don't know if I have fallen into the labyrinth of illusions.

Continuing to move forward, Bai Ning deliberately thought about some questions related to the outpost research base in his mind, trying to guide the interaction process of the illusion maze according to his previous guess.

It's a pity that until he ran into a corner again, Bai Ning couldn't get any positive feedback.

This is very strange, I have been trapped in the labyrinth of illusions before I walked here, why has the immersion process become so slow this time?

Installing a signal repeater around the corner, Bai Ning took the opportunity to observe the four outlaws who followed him, and did not find anything unusual on their faces.

This seems strange, they don't know how to deal with the illusion maze, how can they still follow this step soberly?

Could it be that you are already in the labyrinth of illusions?

As soon as this feeling of doubt arose, Bai Ning suddenly felt a sense of jealousy for no reason, and he was very jealous of the space behind this corner.

Inexplicable palpitations.

Is it just because of the increase in corners that it is not conducive to the recovery of safety ropes?

This inexplicable feeling of palpitations became stronger and stronger, and even made Bai Ning feel the urge to turn around and run away, which seemed very inexplicable.

With Bai Ning's personality characteristics, even if he died here on the spot, it would be absolutely impossible to have such an inexplicable sense of fear.

The only explanation, which is most likely the result of interacting with the Illusion Labyrinth, is the emotional feedback imposed on Bai Ning by the Illusion Core.

This is very strange, if the illusion maze can really interact with each other, why is the content of the interaction completely unrelated to what Bai Ning wants?

Is it an inexplicable warning of danger?

Or, in other words, the external threat that Gogol had mentioned before was approaching, and this abnormal palpitation feeling was a necessary warning of danger from the Labyrinth of Illusion.
