Mysterious city

"Where am I?"

"who I am?"

Jiang Zhe's consciousness asked in his mind in great confusion, like a primary school student encountering some incomprehensible Olympiad problem.

After the severe pain dissipated just now, Jiang Zhe's brain became much clearer, at least the discomfort was slowly disappearing.

But all his original memories disappeared completely, as if the delete button had been pressed.

Or it should be said that it is more correct to say that it is more like a direct and complete system formatting.

If Jiang Zhe had not suffered such a big blow just now, he would understand how dangerous his situation is at this moment.

In fact, the reason why he felt that his body at this moment was completely out of control of his consciousness was because from the moment he absorbed the demon core and came into contact with the demonic intention rushing out of the "Magic Mountain", he had already been affected by its demonic power. intentional influence.

The influence of that demonic intention weakened Jiang Zhe's willpower a lot and his thinking ability was greatly reduced. Therefore, before that, Jiang Zhe was bewitched by the mysterious voice of unknown origin from the demonic core of the "Magic Mountain".

Almost from the moment Jiang Zhe said that he was "willing to give up everything in order to obtain more powerful power," his vigilance against demonic intentions had dropped to its lowest point.

If the demonic intention that had aggressively attacked Jiang Zhe's body and consciousness before was still resisted by Jiang Zhe's tenacious willpower.

So after he almost completely let down his guard, Jiang Zhe's body and mind's identification of the evil spirit wandering in his body had changed from "enemy" to "one of our own".

In this case, the demonic intention can of course wreak havoc in Jiang Zhe's body without restraint, swallowing up his blood, meridians and consciousness.

Generally speaking, after Constantine absorbs the magic core of a monster, two situations may occur.

The process of both situations is inseparable from the experience of the monster's transformation from "human" to "monster". In other words, you will experience the memory and memory of the monster at a speed several times faster in a short period of time. experience.

Of course, this kind of memory and experience does not start when the monster is born, but in the process of its transformation from "human" to "monster", some extremely important experiences and memory fragments, just like from a certain Like the best selections from a video tape.

Although they all experience their memories and experiences, the processes are different.

In the first case, Constantine appears from a third-person perspective when he absorbs the magic core and experiences the demonization of the monster.

In other words, in this case, Constantine, as the absorber, is more like watching the entire process of the monster's demonization in the way of "playing a game" or "watching a movie."

It's just that this kind of game or movie is far more realistic than the ordinary, a serious "4D" experience.

You will appear in extremely important moments in the monster's transformation process, and you will appear in its memory scenes.

However, in this case, the absorber is still the absorber. Although the experience is extremely real, it is not yet a 100% "immersive" experience.

Because the absorber's own memories and emotions will not be disturbed, at least rarely.

The premise for this situation to occur is that the monster is not very powerful, and the concentration and magnitude of its demonic intent are not high enough to have much impact on the absorber itself.

In other words, it is because the absorber's own strength is greater than its ability to absorb the magic core monster, so it will not be overly counterattacked by the monster's evil intention.

The second possible situation is when the absorber enters the memory fragment of the monster's transformation from a first-person perspective.

Compared to the first case, in this case the absorber experiences the process of demonization, which is infinitely close to a "100% immersive" experience.

The absorber will experience its demonization experience and process from the perspective of the monster. Whether it is emotions or memories, it can be almost 100% "reproduced".

When this happens, it means that the absorber's situation is already very dangerous.

After all, this kind of "100% immersive" experience can easily allow the absorber to incorporate the experiences, memories and emotions of the monster into himself, thus giving rise to the possibility of demonization.

Once the absorber's own willpower cannot resist the erosion of these memories and emotions, he will be completely trapped in it!

It's as if another person's complete memory is suddenly inserted into your brain. No matter who it is, they will definitely not be able to recognize whether they are their original self or the "person" who was inserted into the memory, right?

The reason why such a terrible situation occurs is because the absorber is too hasty.

There are many possibilities, and the most common possibility is that the absorber's own strength is not as strong as the monster being absorbed.

This situation occurs when the quality or quantity of spiritual power is relatively weak compared to the demonic intention contained in the demonic core.

The principle is very simple, just like you are holding a small basin of water and trying to extinguish a large burning flame. Can you do it?

In the end, it is very likely that the fire was not extinguished, but the basin of water in your hand was completely evaporated, causing your own destruction.

In fact, people who put out fires are most likely to be burned by fire!

As for why when the absorber's strength is lower than the strength of the monster itself, Constantine can still kill the monster and absorb its magic core. There are more possibilities.

It may be because of joint operations, but only one person was absorbing the magic core; it may also be because of stealing other people's victory results, so I won't go into details here.

Of course, there is another possibility that causes this phenomenon, that is, Constantine also has some dark negative desires hidden in his heart.

The negative desires contained in the monsters he defeated and the demon cores he absorbed, that is, the type of demonic intent, were exactly the same as the negative desires of Constantine himself.

When this happens, it's a type of situation that can't be explained clearly. I can't blame Constantine.

After all, not everyone can understand themselves 100% deeply, clearly and comprehensively.

For most people, those dark negative desires that are deeply buried in their hearts may not even be noticed by themselves. Otherwise, how can they be said to be buried in their hearts?

What's more, before absorbing the monster's magic core, not all Constantines can clearly judge the negative desires that caused the monster to become demonized simply from the monster's ability and appearance, making it impossible to avoid risks.

All in all, absorbing the magic core of monsters is an almost gambling adventure in itself for Constantine.
