My different world is game mode

"The power of thorns...you mean, [Thorn Necklace]?"

Lindsay knew that Alice would definitely not harm him, so she naturally retreated together.

Alice also explained:

"Yes, the three royal weapons all have their own symbols and powers."

"The [White Steel Sword] I once mastered symbolizes royal power and is the most powerful weapon that can last forever; the "Anthroposophical Code" in your hand symbolizes law and has the omnipotent power to realize wishes; and this last [thorn] Necklace] symbolizes the majesty and inviolable power of the [City of Law].”

"With the recognition of this royal weapon, the awakened person can exert power beyond imagination!"

Lindsay asked simply:

"Be specific with your words, don't use abstract terms to describe it."

Alice said directly:

"The [Thorn Necklace] can evolve into thorns that pierce all things, the kind you see now - it can cause great pain to people, or completely control the other person's actions."

"..."

Lindsay continued to back away.

He looked at the city in the distance. The thorns were endless and still spreading outwards in the city.

Lindsay naturally also remembered the last message Yana Feinen sent to herself.

[Thorn Necklace] has been in the [City of Law] for so many years.

Out of respect for the royal bloodline, Xin Zhifeng might not contact them rashly, but what about the others?

Lindsay guessed the truth and tried to ask Alice:

"Alice, the people who used [Thorn Necklace] in the past were probably awakened ones, right?"

Alice answered without hesitation:

"That is a royal weapon. Under normal circumstances, it will only be owned by the king of [The Capital of Law]..."

Alice reacted immediately:

"Wait! Lindsay what do you mean?"

"Don't tell me that a royal weapon was mastered by an ordinary person! It was mastered by an ordinary person who has no source of essence!"

Lindsay's right eyelid is twitching wildly:

"If things are really as I think - then the word 'mastery' may need to be changed."

The two continued to retreat.

When they reached the hills outside the city and were at a high altitude, the scene ahead came into view more clearly.

The huge thorns are the fastest when they first burst out.

The mountain tops and castles were covered in just an instant, and the inner ring city where countless humans lived was also completely covered in a matter of seconds. Only in the middle and outer worlds, did people notice the scene at night and began to flee outwards.

Look again at the people and things covered in thorns.

Although Alice explained that after being stung by a thorn, her behavior would be controlled, but the situation in the city was different from what she said.

Regardless of life or death, regardless of status.

Everything struck by the thorns fell into stillness for an instant.

The people who got up to run for their lives just sat up from the bed, and then kept moving and did not get up; the refugees on the black streets tried to escape, but their steps were also nailed to the streets; more people were awakened from their sleep, and then Just open your eyes and lie upright on the bed.

Time seems to be frozen in the city and its people.

The scale of this thorn was so huge that even Lindsay's clue-gathering skills revealed its attributes from a long distance away.

[The thorns of restraint—the terrifying power of the royal weapon was triggered by others. The user achieved his goal through strong will, but was unable to contain this terrifying power later on. 】

Lindsay turned to look at Alice:

"Alice, let me ask you a question."

"If a person who uses [Thorn Necklace] cannot activate its power but cannot perform subsequent control, what will be the consequences?"

Alice shook her head slightly:

"The situation you are talking about has never happened. It is impossible for me to just guess an answer for you."

"But if it's really an ordinary person using a royal weapon..."

"Based on my experience, the royal weapon of [Law Capital] will definitely not cause harm to ordinary people, but the price he will pay for using it forcefully may be death."

Lindsay asked:

"Can terminating this process early save her?"

Lindsay's question seemed to make Alice think of something. She raised her head and looked forward, her expression becoming extremely complicated:

"Terminate this process early..."

"Lindsay, the problem may be a little serious now."

"If you want to terminate this process, you must first remove the [Thorn Necklace] from her through the users of the [Thorn Necklace]."

Lindsay immediately understood what Alice meant:

"But the user who wants to find the [Thorn Necklace] must now enter the [City of Law] and pass through the thorns surrounding it!"

"..."

They both fell silent at the same time.

Because an interesting cycle is complete.

——The power of [Thorn Necklace] spreads throughout the city, making everyone and everything in the city incapacitated.

——If you want to remove the thorn cover, you must pull the [Thorn Necklace] off the user's neck.

——The user of [Thorn Necklace] is now in the center of the city.

Lindsay asked Alice with a wry smile:

"What about forcing a breakthrough?"

Alice returned the same smile:

"That's a royal weapon!"

"Lindsay, if you think about your Code of Anthroposophy and my [White Steel Sword], you will know how difficult it is to force a breakthrough."

"..."

The two looked at each other, and more turmoil was coming from the direction of the city.

The inner ring of the core of [Law City] is completely controlled by the power of [Thorn Necklace], and nothing can escape.

But in the middle and outer ring worlds.

In the former, the faster awakeners still have the possibility of escape.

Ordinary people living in the outer ring city can barely get out of the city if they react in time.

The law knights guarding the city gate have never seen such a scene.

But they also know that the current situation is special, so they completely open the city gate and let these refugees out.

"..."

Lindsay and Alice watched the scene in the distance in silence.

They have developed rich management experience in the [Moon Crying Mountain] world.

The area of ​​[Law City] is too large. Although the proportion of people who escaped is small, the number is already in the tens of thousands.

Escaped, then what?

Now people are alive, but living, eating, and surviving in the future will become a huge problem.

In contrast.

Perhaps being controlled by thorns in the city is a more labor-saving method.

As a hedonist, Alice thought about the fate of these people, and immediately stood up and walked forward:

"Lindsay, I want to help these people."

"Can you lend me your [Survival Construction] module, preferably for a longer time?"

Without saying a word, Lindsay directly rubbed a skill seed and threw it over.

He also stepped forward at the same time:

"Alice, don't think too desperately."

"The power of [Thor Necklace] is definitely not easy to solve, but you also know that I have a lot of power, maybe there is a way?"
