13 Mink Street

"Have you discovered anything?" Neo asked Karen, "Or, is there anything you want to say to me?"

Karen looked at the signature on the stone tablet again. Yes, Ranedal, that's right.

Then, Karen looked at the sculpture in the center of the fountain.

The man has a somewhat thin figure and clear facial lines, giving him a sense of loneliness and contemplation.

Then, Karen looked specifically at the head of the sculpture. Oh, it wasn't bald.

"Um?"

Neo whispered again in a nasal tone.

Karen hesitated for a moment. He didn't know what to say. Could it be that: Captain, everything our team encountered today was all caused by my dog?

However, Karen knew that the trigger here had nothing to do with his team's encounter today and with Kevin now.

It's just that the former dog left a toy, and now, the toy has been picked up again and started to play with.

"I don't know much about him."

"Well, I believe you." Neo replied, "However, there is a place that may be of interest to you, or may be useful to you, if what you told me is true."

"Captain, what is it?"

"You told me that your body was once transformed by Ranedal."

"so?"

"So, there's a place I can't get into, but maybe you can."

"where?"

"The top floor of the castle."

Karen followed Neo into the castle, choosing to go through the window instead of going through the castle gate.

After landing, Karen found that half of the room was in light and half in darkness, as if time had been cut here.

"This is deliberately arranged like this. You should know these things better than me." Neo said.

"It's to deepen the psychological implications. What we encountered outside the castle should be completely different from what we encountered inside the castle. The people who run this place should focus their main energy here."

"Yes, fortunately I didn't take you in, otherwise I'm worried that after this time is over, there may be a few more fools in my team, and I can't abandon or kick them out. I can only do it in the next suitable mission. It would be very troublesome to create an ending where they sacrifice themselves to save everyone.”

"Captain, I don't think these words are suitable to say to me, a team member."

"It doesn't hurt to listen. Don't worry that other team members will think you are ruthless or criticize you because they see your purpose. They may call you cold-blooded when drinking in private. In fact, they agree with your actions deep down.

However, I think that if the rewards are generous, many diseases should be cured directly. "

Karen did not answer but followed Neo silently and continued walking. The two went up the stairs from the first floor and finally to the fifth floor.

During this period, Karen felt like walking in an amusement park at night. The arrangement of many things could still give people a great sense of discomfort even if they were not activated. If they were activated, the cutting and distortion of time would It is enough to completely subvert people's previous understanding of time.

When he waited on the fifth floor, Neo looked at his watch and said: "We have plenty of time. If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to come in next time. I estimate that we will be included as unsuitable testers." On the list. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, you can come here because you are quarantined, or is the entire team quarantined? "

"The entire squad was quarantined."

"The time is very close for our entire team to leave, but there is still plenty of time." Neo asked casually while recalculating the time, "How did you do it?"

"The operator created a fake you."

"Well, what then?"

"In front of all the team members, I shot the fake you to pieces."

"Um?"

"Fake you."

"You are so cruel."

"Because I know it's false."

"Well, you did a good job. Those guys used us as test subjects in this way. No matter how generous the reward is afterwards, we must curse them in our hearts. Of course, let their tests appear. It's also a great way to express that the problem is difficult to maintain.

Here we are, this door. "

Neo pointed to the red door in front of him. This door appeared here, and it didn't match the surrounding decoration style, but it also made it unique.

"I can't push it away. It's like a wall. Try it."

Karen nodded, stretched out his hand and touched the door, but did not feel any resistance or even touch anything, because Karen's hand penetrated directly through the door.

Neo looked at this scene, nodded, and said:

"Okay, now I completely believe that your body has been transformed by the evil god."

"Captain, you didn't fully believe it before?"

"I've always believed in you, but believing completely is a higher level."

Karen also put his other hand in. At this time, layers of ripples appeared on the door, and the door in front of him was like a standing water surface.

"Captain, do you want to come in with us?"

Karen took out one of his hands and handed it to the captain.

"If something goes wrong when I get in, will I be stuck right here?"

"It's just mental awareness."

"But the feeling of death is real. If we consider ourselves dead here, what kind of chain reaction do you think our bodies will have in reality? Mental spells are best at this."

After hearing these words, Karen suddenly realized that if he had been more accurate and successfully hit Marlowe's head, wouldn't Marlowe be...

Poor Marlowe was just deceived by the false captain.

"Then you stay outside and I'll go in and take a look."

Karen was really curious about what kind of toy his dog had left behind. It would be difficult to wait until next time if he missed this opportunity, even if the former owner of this thing was a dog in his own home.

"No, I'm willing to give it a try."

Neo grabbed Karen's hand, and immediately, his body seemed to be qualified to enter the door, and the two of them quickly entered the door.

"Buzz!"

Behind the door is a field of stars, which is very beautiful.

But this is not a real star, but an algorithm. It is the core, which structures the entire consciousness space. Walking in it, you can feel your own insignificance. This is a kind of crushing from the wisdom level.

"I think this space should be what Ranedar left behind." Neo said, "a star of wisdom."

Karen nodded, but then another worry emerged. If his dog had left something else behind, he might have been able to get away with it. In name, it was returned to its original owner, but what he left behind was this... …I can’t move it even if I want to.

Alas, it is fitting that Ranedar did not leave many traces in the world. Let alone ordinary people, even the priests basically did not know that such an evil god existed.

If Gouzi had left some more Evil God Blades, Evil God Swords, Evil God Axes, and Evil God Shields back then, even if they were prefixed with "broken" and "broken", his reputation would definitely be different.

Karen and Neo continued to walk inside. Just when they thought that behind this door was all the brilliance of stars, another door appeared in front of them. This door was not red, but blue.

"Try again and see if you can get in."

"good."

Karen reached out her hands again, but this time, they were blocked by the door.

When Neo saw this, he let out a sigh of disappointment and said: "It seems that it is no longer possible. We can only go here."

After saying that, Neo turned around, pointed in the direction where the two of them came in, and continued:

"The things in this room should have been left by Ranedal. I can even guess that they can't get in through that red door;

Because they were worried that forcing entry would destroy the stars inside, they could only use the 'wisdom' here to run this world of consciousness.

It's a pity that we can't enter the innermost door. No one has ever gone in to see what's inside. "

What the captain meant was that what Ranedal left behind might be a "brain" in an abstract sense. The relevant departments of the Cult of Kosmos were afraid of damaging the internal structure of the brain, so they did not dare to dissect it and could only treat it as a brain. Components are embedded here for operation.

"This is the most important place, but it is also the least important place." Neo sighed, "Let's go back."

"Squeak..."

At this moment, Neo heard the sound of the door opening behind him.

Neo turned around and saw Karen reaching out and grabbing the door handle, pulling the door open.

"Captain, this door cannot be penetrated, but it can be opened."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Neo walked back again, and the two of them walked into the innermost room together.

A house to be exact.

Because the two of them came out of a broken wardrobe, and the most valuable thing in this house made of stones was probably this broken wardrobe.

Neo began to look around carefully, and Karen asked: "Captain, can you tell what year it is?"

"Any trace of the era has nothing to do with the poor."

Karen nodded and said: "I think this should be the place that Ranedal remembers most deeply, and it is probably his first home."

"Yes, I think so too. Those three closed windows..."

"You can push it aside and take a look."

Neo smiled and said: "It seems a little inappropriate to peek into the deep memories of an evil god, right?"

He said so, but Neo still walked to the first window on the left.

"I don't think the great evil god would care about such a trivial matter." Karen also approached the window.

After this incident, Karen felt that it was necessary to torture his dog when he returned home. He could not let its past go unchecked just because it couldn't speak. Just like this incident, if he had known about this earlier, There was no need to be nervous for so long at the beginning, and Marlowe almost collapsed immediately.

Karen seemed to remember that when everyone was "arranged" into the closed space, it was not only Richard who was doing sign language to him crazily, but Marlowe in the distance was also pointing at the wound on his shoulder and desperately protesting something to him. , but it seems that I saw it wrong, well, I saw it wrong.

In short, it is better to leave the task of interrogating your own dog to your own cat.

Neo reached out and pushed open the first window.

After the first window opened, what appeared outside was a blue sea. A beautiful girl in a white dress was walking on the beach picking up seafood. Behind her, a ragged boy followed her cautiously. .

Sunshine, beach, waves, beautiful women and young people, this is a very clichéd picture that people will never tire of.

Many people can relate to that girl, and many people can relate to that boy.

In that youthful and ignorant age, maybe a ray of sunshine shone down, guiding that strand of hair or the slight curvature of the lips, and instantly touched someone's heart.

We were all at that age, and we all came from that age. If we close our eyes and think about it, we can seem to find similar scenes, but that she may never know that her own gaze has ever fallen on her. On her body.

at this time,

Neo and Karen were both leaning on the window sill with their elbows. They were like two brothers who like to stand on the window sill and comment on the beautiful women coming and going in a second-floor household on one side of the street.

"Is this boy the evil god?"

"should be."

"It's really surprising. The Evil God actually had such a side, honest, dull, and shy. Such a person can actually grow into the Evil God in the future, tsk tsk.

By the way, is that girl an ordinary person? "

"If I guess correctly, that girl should be... Mills."

"Goddess Mills?"

"Yes."

"It turns out that Goddess Mills and the Evil God once had such a friendship that they fell into a sauce vat together."

The people of Wien love to eat soybean paste, and almost every household has a soybean vat. Therefore, two children falling into a soybean vat together means that the two families have a good relationship and can share the soybean vat. They are the Wien version of childhood sweethearts.

"I don't think Goddess Mills and the Evil God fell in together."

"oh?"

When Neo heard this, he took a closer look and found that the boy was just following the elder sister walking in front of him step by step, stepping on her footprints. The elder sister in front of him had also turned around to see him, but she was just being polite. Smiling sexily, it seemed that the two of them didn't know each other at all.

"hiss……"

Neo took a deep breath and continued:

"Why do I feel a little pity for this evil god?"

"Me too," Karen echoed.

Neo turned to look at Karen and asked, "Have you ever lacked a woman in your life?"

"What?"

"I mean, when you say this, does your conscience really not hurt?"

"..." Karen.

Looking from this window, the girl has been walking, and the boy has been following her. The two of them walked from early morning to noon, then from noon to dusk, and from dusk to the stars.

Maybe, this memory is so beautiful that the owner of the memory hopes that it will never have an end and just keep going like this until forever.

"Look at the second window," Neo suggested.

"Okay, Captain."

The second window was pushed open, and the window turned into a reef. A young man stood there, watching a woman, under the gaze of the whole island, get on a boat and sail into the boundless sea. In the end, she was caught by a huge The sea curtain is swallowed up together with the whirlpool.

Karen had seen this scene before when he released the seal for his dog.

Neo said: "Goddess Mills's Day of Becoming a God."

Karen nodded.

In order that the prostitutes on the island would no longer be bullied, the goddess Mills took the initiative to enter the sea and became the lover of the sea god. From then on, the pirates no longer dared not to give the prostitutes money, otherwise they would suffer the punishment of being swallowed by the waves.

Paying money to a prostitute actually involves respect and dignity.

"He's angry." Neo pointed to the young man standing in front of the window.

"Um."

"So, I am looking forward to the third window. The Poseidon Church was once an orthodox church, but it split at the end of the last era. There are still several splinter churches of the Poseidon Church, the highest of which is a medium-sized church.

Is there a relationship between the collapse of Poseidon Religion and this evil god?

Stop it

Don't open your mouth,

I want to open the window myself and watch! "

What Karen actually wants to say is: He doesn't know either.

But we can probably guess that it should be like this.

Otherwise, you can't explain the origin of your "Poseidon's Armor". It can't be that Gouzi got it from his love rival, right?

Neo opened the third window, and in an instant, a terrifying majesty swept out.

Karen, who was walking towards here, was suppressed by this terrifying pressure and subconsciously bent down. He could only hold on and not kneel down. Neo, who was in front of him, was holding on to the edge of the window sill with both hands. Support the body.

In fact, this terrifying power came too suddenly, leaving the two of them unprepared, and it was completely different from the quiet presentation of the first two windows.

Finally, Karen adapted to the pressure, walked to the window sill, and looked out.

Ahead is the boundless blue sea. Karen and Neo now seem to be lying on the porthole looking out.

But below, in the depths of the sea, a huge empty circle appeared, with a huge altar inside. The size of this altar could be compared to a small island.

On the altar, an extremely large man wearing simple blue armor was trapped and chained by lava iron chains that sprang out from the depths of the ground. He was struggling, and every time he struggled, a terrifying force was condensed above him. The thunderstorm was like the roar of the sea, but every struggle was in vain.

"Is this... Poseidon?" Karen asked in disbelief.

This is really a body as huge as a mountain. Even if such a being does not possess divine power, its size alone is enough to dominate the sea.

Neo stretched out his finger and pointed at the top of his head.

Karen stuck his head out, grabbed the edge of the window sill with both hands and looked up. Directly above, there was a black throne suspended.

Neo asked: "What did you see?"

Cullen replied: "The Throne of Order."

Neo said: "So, it was our God of Order who helped the Evil God suppress Poseidon back then."

Karen nodded and said: "But the one who judged Ranedar as an evil god is also our God of Order."

At this time,

A man's figure appeared above the Poseidon Altar. The difference in size between the two sides was like gravel and mountain peaks, but when he appeared, the gloomy aura seemed to have colored the surrounding seawater.

The man was holding a ball of magma in his hand, and a large amount of magma began to gush out from under the altar, about to submerge the huge body of Poseidon.

"I once swore that I would make Poseidon Sect die and Poseidon fall. Today, I did it."

"Lanedar, I curse you in the name of the sea!"

Poseidon's angry roar shook the surrounding space.

"I curse you to be deprived of your godhood!

I curse your freedom to be suppressed!

I curse your body to be taken captive!

I curse your soul to be banished!

I curse your dignity to be trampled on!

Hahaha,

I curse you,

I will be a slave for the rest of my life, living like a dog! ! ! "

above,

After hearing Poseidon's curse on him, Ranedal smiled disdainfully and said with disdain:

"Haha, childish."
