Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

Esther spent the whole day walking around the island again.

Because of the few light spots integrated into the bangs, even if Esther couldn't hear the sound, these light spots would give her feedback from time to time.

Because they convey a more comprehensive perception to Esther, she can observe her surroundings secretly. Esther pretended to fall to the ground accidentally and took the opportunity to catch a reptile lying among the roots of a tree. This time, the Time Insect no longer pretended to be passing by innocently, but before it tried to escape, a flash of light quickly broke away from the reptile's body and sank into Esther's forehead.

The splitting pain reappeared, but with the last experience, Esther had begun to adapt to the process of absorbing light. When the pain subsided, she patted her head, dusted off the dust on her body, and sighed inwardly.

She had some doubts about her daily life. Is it because it’s still the human habit from the time of “Lixing”?

The color of the sunset becomes darker and darker, until the night shadow covers the sky, the last ray of light dissipates, and the red moon opens its eyes.

The young man showed up much later today, unlike the two days before, when he approached Esther just after nightfall to use the "punishment" of the game.

He jumped directly from the top of the tree, walked up to Esther and waved, and even greeted her specially to show off his presence.

Esther looked at Him doubtfully, and she noticed the subtle sense of dissonance.

Amon seems different every day.

Today's person was particularly lively, and yesterday's person was quite cautious. Such differences were placed in front of her, which made Esther speculate like this.

So these Amon are all clones?

The black-haired young man adjusted his monocle and bowed with a sly smile, as if making an invitation.

This was the last scene Esther saw.

There was a slight pulling sensation above the head, and the crow seemed to be flapping its wings in a menacing direction. Esther could feel the air flow.

She blinked slowly and hard, but it was as if someone turned off the lights and drew a dark curtain in front of her eyes, blocking all light and color.

What was stolen this time was vision.

There was a buzzing sound in his mind, and this time He clearly conveyed "anger".

But such an impact was unbearable for Esther. She felt a sudden pain in her head, and warm liquid slowly flowed down from the end of her nose. Fortunately, she still had a handkerchief in her satchel. She closed her eyes with such a simple movement. It can still be done.

Esther covered the bleeding nostril with a handkerchief. Her breathing was blocked because she could not open her mouth.

She seemed to begin to understand the purpose of "Amon". He was lying from the beginning. All his actions were not to avoid facing "Zoya", but to awaken "Zoya".

Amon said that he did not want to directly awaken "Zoya", which was simply a fraud. His plan was to urge "Zoya" to appear step by step. The pain that "Esther" felt during this period was all the weight in this tug-of-war. code.

Until this moment, Esther suddenly felt that she was really ridiculous.

The Sequence 8 of "Stealer" is "Scammer", she always forgets this.

Not a word of it can be believed.

The crow and the young man were waiting, but Esther's reaction was destined to disappoint them. She touched the ground, grabbed the wooden gun that she had just let go of and took it back into her hand, using it as a means to test the roadblock, and slowly moved it To the tree closest to me in memory.

There was no crazy distress or mental breakdown as imagined. She was so indifferent that she didn't seem to care about the vision that was taken away. The crow exchanged a look with the young man, and the young man shrugged indifferently.

Esther held on to the tree trunk and moved away from the young man.

The crow shook his head at the young man, and then he disappeared into the woods unhappily, dissatisfied that his offer to "steal another thing" had been rejected.

Esther listened carefully to the feedback conveyed to her by that strand of hair, and knew that the young man in black robe had left.

Esther did not dare to completely release this small amount of light. This was her only reliance on external perception. Once the other party stole them again, Esther would be helpless again.

"You can continue to be patient at this time. Sure enough, it's because the main body is still on Source Castle. This is just a new 'shell'... In the end, the 'human nature' he said was just a cover? Does he have any reason to lie to me?"

The crow whispered, precisely because Esther couldn't hear, so it acted unscrupulously. The feedback those light spots could give to Esther did not include complete language. They did not have such complex understanding capabilities.

After all, it had dealt with "Zoya" thousands of years ago, and it knew very well that these sub-bodies had limitations.

Esther raised her hand, gently touched her eyes, and closed her eyelids.

Again she silently recited the words that "Zoya" had told her then.

[Feelings? ]

The existence in her mind touched her perception again, and this time the picture appeared:

The mottled and disordered color blocks seem to be from the hands of an impressionist painter, but in the large hazy scene, illusory and disorderly trickles are looming, and their complicated branches are like scattered threads, outlining the twists and turns of the moment. shape.

However, the constantly changing and turbulent river of mercury will not change the existence of real matter. Esther gradually recognizes the corresponding "things" in the entangled colors.

In that psychedelic picture, she recognized the giant dragon flying over the mountain ridge, the sun and the cross, and the towering and magnificent palace.

The picture suddenly shattered, but Esther's perception was deeply shaken by it.

This time the indoctrination from "Zoya" only dissipated in an instant, but the residual impact was much more serious than last time. The handkerchief was already soaked, and the tip of Esther's nose rolled down again. Blood beads dyed her lips bright red.

The buzzing sound in her mind was almost roaring, and the severe pain almost broke her skull, but Esther just stood there holding on to the tree with one hand and the wooden gun with the other.

The crow above her head grasped Esther's hair firmly without making any movement.

Esther suddenly put aside the wooden gun and stretched out her hand into the air as if to grab something, but there was nothing in her clenched fist.

I see……

Esther suddenly understood the meaning of that sentence. "Feeling" is an ability that can only be understood but cannot be expressed. "Resonance" and "absorption" are both based on the perception of countless branches of fate.

Like a baby bird pushed off a cliff, if it can't learn to fly, it can only meet its demise.

If you learn it, you will be greeted by a whole new world.

Esther clasped her hands together and lowered her head slightly, like a believer preparing to pray devoutly, letting the blood on her nose seep into her shirt.

She got rid of all the emotions in her heart and entered a calm state. This was close to preliminary meditation, but she did not outline any shapes or objects that did not exist in the world, but slowly sank into the depths of her mind.

A gentle and kind light emerged in Esther's consciousness. She did not suffer any harm from observing it, but the light began to expand and quickly covered Esther's perception.

It's like a person who has been short-sighted for a long time puts on glasses, or like a veil covering his eyes is lifted, and everything around him suddenly becomes clear.

Putting aside the sounds and images, a new perception spreads around.

Esther pinched her nose and took off the blood-soaked handkerchief. In her perception, it was glowing because it was stained with her blood.

In fact, all the objects have rough shapes depicted by different shades of light, but are also full of incongruous tones, with light shadows of black clinging here and there.

Perhaps Esther had been staring at the handkerchief for a long time, and the crow flew down from above her head and landed on her arm.

In Esther's "sight", there was an extremely twisted and dark shadow, like a worm clumping together, flying in front of her, barely able to piece together the silhouette of a crow.

Esther reached out and poked its head, but the crow nimbly dodged it.

Is this the world that "Zoya" can perceive?

Esther raised her head and vaguely caught a glimpse of the seven flowing lights and gray shadows, but the scene was fleeting. She seemed to see the tree crown, and there were stars and the rich and bloody red moon casting her sight. Everything was blurry, only Thin silver lines crisscrossed clearly clinging to everything.

It's so confusing. All the images are between reality and illusion. The entanglements between the spiritual world, reality and fate are all filled to the same level. For ordinary people, the most ordinary scenes show twisted and terrifying monsters. No wonder... In that dream, the night kept holding "Zoya"'s hand...

Esther tentatively took a step forward and stepped on the wooden gun that she had just let go of. She raised her foot again in a panic. The wooden gun rolled out, with visible ripples on it, shaking the silver-white filaments, and pulling A part was broken and a part spread out.

Putting all this into a more concrete real world, it was just the wooden gun that crushed two weeds.

Esther slowly put her hand down, and the crow flew to the bush opposite her, curiously asking: "What did you see?"

What did I see? I don't know either!

Esther nodded and shook her head blankly, which was completely unconscious on her part.

Then Esther and Crow realized at the same time that she could receive the meaning of Crow's words!

The crow raised its tail feathers in anticipation: "How on earth did you do that?"

Esther made two gestures, but because her mouth was still sealed, she could not relay this strange process. In the end, Esther just shook her head again. The fact that she learned to perceive the outside world in this way did not mean that she could express it. She did not get help in this regard.

The crow looked at her silently for a long time, but it could be seen from the swaying tail feathers that it was actually very excited at the moment.

"Your mental condition has not been affected? Extraordinaries of the 'Destiny' path can easily lose control. This is why Sequence Nine is a 'monster'."

Esther turned her head to look at the intertwined light and shadows around her and frowned. This time she stepped firmly on the ground, leaned over and picked up the wooden gun back in her hand.

Perhaps it's because "Zoya" has long been accustomed to such a scene, and she doesn't feel much discomfort. It's just that the information that keeps pouring into her perception without filtering makes Esther feel very tired.

She didn't even know how to get out of this situation.

Esther waved to the crow, but it stopped where it was and did not fly back to her head.
