Wright walked into the church with the shield in his hand, and he couldn't help but scratch his head as he looked left and right.

Seeing this, Emily hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Why haven't you seen anyone from the Sin Light Sect?"

"Let's not talk about that ......"

Emily pointed to the man lying on the ground: "You come up and do it directly?" At least you have to ask first, right?

I know you don't like the process, but if you don't agree with each other, what if you hit the wrong person? ”

Wright held out his finger and slammed it on Emily's forehead.

"You stupid, feel it carefully with your mental power."

Emily held her head, but still used her mental power to probe the fallen clergyman, as Wright said.

Suddenly, her face changed, and she turned her head and threw herself on the ground.

"Gross! This...... What is this? This man's soul is so disgusting. He, he, his soul rotted? ”

Wright nodded: "Yes, literally rotten."

As soon as he opened the door, I felt a foul smell from the soul level hit my face.

Otherwise, why do you think I did it, and I really think I was sending warmth? ”

"How so?"

Emily vomited and turned pale: "I've read in some books that necromancers can make a monster called a ghoul out of corpses.

They are like carrion corpses that can move.

But that's just physical decay.

How can the human soul decay to such an extent?

Vomit!!! ”

Wright was about to speak, but suddenly his brow furrowed. He reached out and summoned his greatsword of sinful light, thrust it into Emily's hand.

"Huh? What are you doing? ”

"Less nonsense, read along with me!"

Wright's face was a little unpleasant: "My heart is like iron, indestructible!" ”

Emily didn't really want to miss that, she wanted to ask why Wright was doing what he did.

But seeing that his face was so ugly, his eyes were full of anxiety, and he suddenly realized that the situation might not be good.

So she hurriedly read along: "I, I, I...... My heart is like iron and indestructible! ”

The Great Sword of Sinlight flickered, and finally extinguished.

"Louder! You're not confident enough in yourself! Fast! Do it again! You have to identify with it from the bottom of your heart! Agree with this statement!

Quick, it's not a joke! ”

Emily immediately took a deep breath and shouted.

"My heart is like iron! Indestructible! ”

In an instant, the sword of sin shined brightly, enveloping Emily's entire person.

Emily didn't feel anything at first, but soon an itch from the depths of her soul made her almost go crazy.

The feeling that was deeper than the itch that penetrated deep into the bone marrow made the clothes on her body instantly wet with sweat.

Even though it was only a few breaths, Emily felt like she had been in purgatory for ten years!

What a pain!

"What happened? I just ......"

Wright held the black shield and his face was ugly: "Just now, your soul has also been corrupted. If you don't deal with it in time, it is estimated that you will be like the guy lying on the ground soon.

No, because your soul is unusually large, you may have to be more painful and difficult to deal with than ordinary people. ”

"What the hell is this? Corruption from the soul...... Yes! ”

Emily clenched her grip on the sinful light and asked in surprise, "Is this the apostle of the Gate of Truth, Lady Corruption?"

She, has she arrived? ”

"Hmph, if she's here, even if I have a way to get you back, I'll have to do a lot of work.

Here, it's just the memetic pollution she planted with the help of the power of the Door of Truth. ”

Emily's mouth opened wide in surprise: "It's a meme!" That...... What is memetic contamination? ”

"Memes, memetic contamination are two different things."

Wright walked up to the clergyman with his shield in his hand, and continued to probe his body, not forgetting to explain to Emily during the process.

"The memetic level is a terrifying existence of the same level as the unspeakable. They are the next step in the promotion at the conceptual level. ”

"Wait! Is there an existence that can match the indescribable? Is the memetic class so powerful? ”

Wright took a deep breath: "Memes, it's hard to explain specifically. It's as if the unspeakable is called indescribable because it is indescribable.

The existence of memes is a distortion of self-concept.

When distorted concepts replace the original concepts of the world, they become agnostic.

It is a completely different path to promotion from the indescribable, which is infinitely broad and eventually becomes unknowable.

Therefore, the strong who take the memetic route will not be blind and stupid.

But at the cost, they're going crazy.

Or they can't call it crazy, because they're trying to substitute their understanding of the concept for the original meaning of the concept.

They may seem like ordinary people, but it is only when you are involved in something with him that some remarks will happen that will subvert your perception.

That's when you can tell them. ”

Emily clenched the sin light and swallowed continuously.

"What the hell, these guys. From conceptual to agnostic, it's either blind stupidity or crazy twisting!

Isn't there a normal way? ”

Wright raised his eyebrows: "It's not that there is no ......"

"What's that?"

"What do you know so much? You're not even a law-level powerhouse now. ”

Wright gave her a roll of the eyes: "Hold on to my holy sword, or your soul will be corrupted." ”

Emily's face turned pale with fright, the rotten soul of that person just now was really unacceptable.

"You just said that memetic grade is not the same thing as memetic pollution, right? Isn't that Lady of Corruption as conceptual as you?

How could she use memetic contamination as a method? ”

Wright shook his head: "Memetic pollution, it's actually very simple. Because pollution often has a designated range.

It's as if right now, the entire church has for some reason become a memetic-tainted area.

The individuals in it, unless their strength is large enough to a certain extent, such as me, will be recruited.

But less than three meters outside the church, the old man who sold fruit didn't have anything to do!

At this point, memetic contamination is even worse than the flu.

And as soon as you leave the memetic contamination area, the effects of the memetic contamination on you will stop. Gradually, it will be re-corrected by the world over time.

There is a philosopher who said that you can deceive one person forever, and you can deceive everyone for a short time.

But you can't fool everyone forever.

Memetic contamination is the conditional use of memetic-level power.

So it's tricky, but it's not unsolvable.

Moreover, it is very troublesome to make such a memetic contaminated area, and it is very costly. ”

Wright wandered around the church with his shield in hand, and then shouted.

"Someone didn't, came out with a pant!"

With his roar, the whole church suddenly became dangerous and abnormal like a frightened beast.

A large group of clerics rushed in frantically with their own notes to transcribe.

"Who, who dares to shout in the halls of the Holy Light Church!"

Wright glanced at the souls of these people and immediately sighed.

"Unfortunately, I'm late. You are all hopeless. ”

Emily stepped back and forth, the disgusting rotten soul she had just had, she didn't want to feel again.

Fortunately, compared to the decay at the physical level, as long as the soul level does not use spiritual power to probe, it looks no different from ordinary people.

But inside, it has completely rotted away.

"Well, Wright, what will happen if they continue to rot?"

Wright thought for a moment and thought, "It depends on what kind of memes the other party has placed in the meme-tainted area."

At present, it seems that these people will affect their physical bodies due to the mutation of their souls, and eventually become strangely shaped monsters.

After all, the soul and the body interact with each other.

You see, the one who takes the lead. Look at his facial features, has he begun to distort and deform.

Does it exude a kind of unhuman uncanny valley effect? ”

Emily glanced at the middle-aged clergyman who took the lead, although the other party still had a human face, but it seemed to melt, and his mouth was crooked and his eyes were slanted and loose.

It's as if a rubber-made human face has been baked at high temperatures......

She shuddered with fright, and the sin light in her hand tightened.

"Hey! Who the hell are you? ”

The leader was still shouting, his voice harsh, more like the scream of some kind of monster than like a man.

And judging from his standing posture, his muscles and bones have also changed to a certain extent.

It seems that it is really alienating from human to non-human little by little.

And the most cruel thing is that in the whole process of change, human consciousness has always existed.

Wright looked around and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, there are no people from the Sin Light Sect here."

Presumably, it was the Shinelight's wish that protected them and allowed them to withdraw from the first danger.

It is estimated that they sensed the strangeness of this church and knew that they could not handle it with their ability, so they contacted us. ”

Emily shook her sin light, "Okay, okay, you can analyze it later." Let's get rid of this group of guys first, and let's get out of this memetic-tainted area! ”

"Well, then you stabilize your soul. Try not to fight. If I'm not mistaken, the corrosion of the soul will make them desperate to devour the souls of others.

Your soul base is so big, fat, fragrant, and sweet, it must be their number one target. ”

As if to confirm Wright's words, the clergy who were about to move were shining brightly.

"Everybody give it to me! Catch these two blasphemous goddess guys! ”

Emily was surprised, "Wow, they still have faith in the Goddess of Light?" ”

"In the early stage, a part of the self-consciousness will be retained, but later it will be completely decayed with the soul."

Wright was shocked, and the Divine Radiance gushed out, enveloping him all over his body.

"Believe me, the half-dead soul is more painful than the body!"

With a snort, the large black shield like a door panel in Wright's hand slammed into the ground, slapping two of the most aggressive guys directly on the floor.

The rest of the people still screamed and rushed forward, seemingly unaware of what fear was.

Wright lifted his shield and spun around like a spinning top to knock five of them out.

He then kicked the leader to the ground and raised his shield.

"When 100% infected by memes, these guys will also become part of the meme-tainted zone.

It's as if you've changed from a player to a scene NPC.

The memetic contaminated areas that have been supplemented with content will either have a further increase in pollution capacity or a further expansion of the contaminated area.

All in all, if left unchecked, sooner or later it will be a scourge! ”

Emily swung off the Great Sword of Sinful Light and slashed one of the attacking enemies directly under the sword: "What is Empixi?" ”

"With your life experience, it's hard for me to explain it to you."

Emily pouted, holding the Sin Light Sword in front of her and screaming angrily.

"My heart is like iron! Indestructible! ”

She seemed to have found some kind of trick, and the Greatsword of Sinful Light answered her call, bursting with great power.

Emily slashed down with a sword, directly vaporizing the polluters present.

She stood with her sword stacked, looking very excited.

"Hey, hey, Wright. Your holy sword is really good to use! ”

“…… Haven't you noticed that you don't feel any shame when you shout these lines this time?

Do you even want to do it again? ”

Emily nodded like a chicken chattering rice, and suddenly her face changed, and she looked at the sword of sin in her hand.

"This, this, this...... How does it sound so much like memetic contamination? Wright, your sword wouldn't be the same thing as here, would it?

If I continue to use it, will my soul become your shape? ”

Wright rolled his eyes: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm a good young man of the era who talks about four things and five beauties." If you don't want to use it, give me the sword. ”

Emily immediately hugged the sword of sin in her arms, "No, I don't want my soul to rot."

But why didn't your soul rot?

Oh! I know!

Because your soul is rotten, this memetic pollution has no effect on you! ”

Wright angrily raised his finger and slammed it on Emily's forehead.

"Are you stupid? All said it, memetic grade and memetic contamination are two different things.

This memetic contamination of the rotten soul is clearly the work of that damn rotten lady.

She's conceptual, I'm conceptual, and I'm so much stronger than her.

If I am overshadowed by this little trick of hers, then I will not be mixed up in the future? ”

"It's also a conceptual level, you two haven't officially fought yet, why are you really sure you're better than her?"

Wright raised his eyebrows: "If she is really strong enough, can she be a lackey with the men of the Gate of Truth?"

Let's go, go inside and take a look.

If there are other polluters, they will be dealt with, and the core of this memetic contamination area will be broken. ”

Emily followed behind Wright with the holy sword: "But ...... What if there was more than one such polluted area in the territory of the First Empire? ”

"That'...... It's a lot of fun. ”
