Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

Chapter 247: The intersection of fate (a must-read for high-level readers!)

"call!"

Chen Ye couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He never thought that he would see Bishop Von Lucius again in the memory of the old man with bones!

Compared to sketches and portraits in public galleries...

In the memory picture, Lucius was wearing a red robe and was about 1.8 meters tall. He stood out among the crowd and looked outstanding.

His cheekbones were prominent, his lips were thin, and there was a meanness in his knife-like face. Just above the straight and aquiline nose, the sunken eye sockets shined with a shrewd light. His left hand was behind his back, and he held a parchment in his right hand. Sometimes he was talking to several men in suits beside him, and sometimes he was looking at far away.

Suddenly, Chen Ye felt Lucius's gaze, moved slightly, and looked in a certain direction.

It happened to be where Chen Ye was at the moment!

Chen Ye looked stunned. He didn't know if it was an illusion. He felt Lucius's gaze, as if he had transcended the limitations of time and space and saw himself standing here at this moment?

Looking around, there was obviously nothing, but Lucius looked deeply at where Chen Ye was standing with a complicated expression.

It's like you can see his presence!

After a while.

Lucius turned around as if leaving.

"This guy is the bishop of the Burning Sun Church who should have died long ago..."

"Compared with the sketch, Lucius at this time is not that old. He should be in middle age. He is wearing a red robe, which shows that his status at this time is only a cardinal and has not been promoted to an archbishop."

"In other words, the current Lucius should still be in the middle to early stage. He has not created the [Soul Crossing Scroll]. His status in the Lieyang Church belongs to the middle and high levels and has not yet reached the top level."

"But Lucius at this period seems to already have some understanding of the spiritual world!"

"Gathering this information, we can make the following hypothesis for the time being - Lucius became a bishop not by chance, but because he received some kind of gift and improved his abilities later on, and then he climbed to the rank of bishop step by step?"

"Then, we must understand what Lucius wanted to do during this period, in order to understand why he wanted to spread the source of pollution in the lower reaches of the Xijiang River and join forces with players to destroy the entire City of Destiny."

A brilliant light bloomed in Chen Ye's eyes.

When he obtained the last item in the [Destiny] sequence for job transfer, he went round and round and happened to find the memory of Von Lucius...

The encounter with the old man Erhu, the acquaintance with Chen Xi when he arrived at the Lieyang Church, the confrontation with the clown in order to retrieve the sacred relics of the Lieyang Church, and the journey to the Sea of ​​Death to solve the curse of the Living Skeleton Village...

at last.

After going full circle, we once again return to the issue of Bishop Von Lucius's life experience...

It just so happens that I am at the point where I have entered the [destiny] sequence!

Combining all kinds of information, Chen Ye couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt the pull of this "destiny" even more deeply!

The characteristic items used to advance to the [Soul Crosser] sequence seem to have come from the "Thirteen Soul Crossing Chapters" created by Bishop Von Lucius.

If there really is some kind of "fate" characteristic, it affects everything in the form of characteristic rules...

Then Chen Ye had to make the worst plan for himself!

Could it be that the current me has actually always been under the strange rules of being killed?

But now, it is still unclear what this strange rule is...

I only know that it has something to do with "destiny"...

Do you have to solve all the doubts about your own destiny to find a solution?

"First find this Lucius and conduct such an experiment. What do you want to do..."

Chen Ye muttered to himself, and then he closed his eyes, activated his spiritual power, and explored the surrounding communication sounds.

Memory is a very magical thing.

Often presented in fragmented form.

People think that they have long forgotten things, but after seeing relevant fragments and making associations, they will quickly outline the memory prototype.

The consciousness of memory is more hidden in the subconscious mind.

In the ocean of subconsciousness, what you hear and see unconsciously, the pictures of the past, and even the tiny sounds of communication that you don't pay attention to will be stored in your subconscious mind...

Therefore, what Chen Ye has to do now is to outline these deepest memories of his subconscious mind!

Maybe……

The old man with bones did not listen carefully to these exchanges at first.

However, Chen Ye can actively evoke subconscious memories, so that the exchanges and picture fragments at that time can be reproduced, thereby extracting key information for analysis.

Not only the memory of the old man with bones...

Chen Ye connected the subconscious minds of all the crew members.

When driving the [thoughts of sentient beings], he blends with these consciousnesses and becomes familiar with each other.

Therefore, entering a state of "resonance" makes it easier and easier to be accepted.

With this, Chen Ye can use all the crew members to retrace everything they heard and saw on the ghost ship in this time and space, so as to find out what Lucius's intention was...

Chen Ye closed his eyes, communicated with spirituality, and looked back.

In an instant, dense whispers continued to float from every corner.

Drinking, yelling, gambling, crying...

All kinds of tiny sounds, illusory and misty, floated from all directions, making people feel unreal.

Chen Ye closed his eyes, concentrated his thoughts again, and tried to peel out valuable information from these layered, chaotic, chaotic, and noisy noises.

If an ordinary person's mental power were to accept this huge amount of information at the same time, it would be impossible to judge the valuable information from it.

It's like going through a hellish listening test!

Ordinary people can only hear the chaotic noise, as if they are in a vegetable market. If they want to restore the more subtle, specific and accurate communication content, they must also find valuable information from this vast sound. It's like finding a needle in a haystack, it's incredibly rare.

Chen Ye frowned slightly. He entered a state of concentration like never before, and with his keen hearing, he could distinguish various sounds.

With excellent spiritual power, as a source of supporting energy, the sounds he heard became clearer and clearer, but he only had to bear the corresponding mental load.

But Chen Ye did not give up and accepted the test resolutely.

He realized that his situation, including the nature of the game, might not be as optimistic as he imagined.

Falling into the arrangement of "fate", Chen Ye felt as if he had fallen into a murderous network.

This giant web of destiny not only includes itself, but also includes the entire "City of Destiny"!

This city is named "Destiny". It is an extremely large copy in itself. Moreover, it covers millions of players. As you can imagine, the difficulty is absolutely hellish!

If this problem cannot be solved, it is very likely that we will fall into more terrifying and incomprehensible strange rules. Maybe it will completely explode when it reaches a certain bottleneck period. By then, we may not know how we died. …

Chen Ye increased the amount of spiritual energy he poured into him, and the conversations in his ears became more chaotic and noisy.

However, he vaguely extracted some key information from it, related to the ghost ship!

Closing his eyes, Chen Ye focused on those key pieces of information. The noise in his ears suddenly disappeared, leaving only clear conversation echoing in his ears.

"Is this the ship that the Lord built?"

"Can it lead to that forbidden place?"

"Shh! Don't make a sound!"

"Legend has it that it is the world of the dead. Before the first voyage, a group of guinea pigs are needed!"

"The door has been opened. What is needed now is to introduce the water flow from outside."

"My father will take on a new form..."

The illusory sound, like gibbering, gradually disappeared.

The nearby figures dissipated one after another from the broken light and shadow, returning to darkness.

The entire ghost ship went farther and farther, heading towards the sea area that did not belong to the living. Its outline gradually disappeared and faded...

The souls of the skeletons passed through the [Gate to the Other Side].

The 'resonance' of the soul is interrupted.

The information that can be obtained from it ends here.

After all, Chen Ye's current status is only a third-level [Ferryman] for the time being. It is extremely rare to be able to use [The Thought of All Beings] in conjunction with the characteristics of [Soul-Transferring Sound] to achieve the means of tracing back to the collective subconscious.

Even the bishops of the Lieyang Church may not be able to do this.

The power of the [Soul Crosser] sequence can also be reflected from it.

At this time, Chen Ye's figure returned to the sea of ​​dead bodies, standing on the bow of the 'ferry ship' at his feet, looking at the surging waves of bones, lowering his head and frowning in thought:

"The built ship..."

"Could it be said that the ghost ship is actually a product created by von Lucius?"

"The spiritual world is a forbidden place in the City of Destiny..."

"The door is the passage to and from the spirit world. It has been opened at this moment, which means it was not opened before..."

"Is the spiritual world a foreign product to this city of destiny?"

Suddenly, Chen Ye seemed to think of something, and his pupils shrank sharply!

He sensed that there was an extremely terrifying conspiracy here!

If the [spiritual world] is a foreign product, then it is very likely that this war will cover different ‘divine authorities’!

From the current point of view, the top of the sequence in the [spiritual world] must have "divine authority", and his status is not low.

It can even suppress the blazing sun!

The further you get to the later stages, the more rare and even unique the promotion materials required for job transfer become...

‘Divine authority’ can be regarded as a special material that is unique and leads to the apex of characteristics.

But what if the ‘gods’ want to pursue the highest realm above all gods?

Then, only by devouring other ‘gods’ authority’ can it be possible to fulfill the conditions for promotion!

Generally speaking, with the strange habit of "seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages", the aborigines will not go to other areas at will.

Now let’s take a look at it a little bit.

The City of Destiny is probably a realm created by some divine authority similar to the "Lord of Destiny".

So, [Spirit World], as a foreign product, enters the realm of [Destiny], what do you want to do?

obviously!

That is the authority that wants to swallow [destiny]!

Does this mean that the entire City of Destiny is actually a battlefield for the God of War?

At that moment, Chen Ye immediately thought of what the old woman selling chestnuts said -

"This pollution comes from a war!"

So, this war is actually a divine war?

Different "divine authorities" and different sequences are concentrated in the City of Destiny to engage in a battle for authority at the divine level?

Chen Ye's face suddenly turned ugly.

If this is the case, then your situation will be particularly dangerous!

"Since the old lady selling chestnuts can know that this pollution is related to the God War, it means that her level is definitely not low, but as for where she is... there is not enough information for the time being..."

"We must find a way to get to Fengdu and see the old lady selling chestnuts again!"

"It is currently confirmed that the old man Erhu is related to the [Soul Crosser] sequence and represents the [spiritual world]."

"As a third-level [ferryman], I am already at the top of the middle-end sequence. The fourth-level level has reached the mid-to-high-end level. Once here, I have firmly imprinted the mark of the [Spirit World] on my body. For the City of Destiny, that is the opponent who has taken refuge with the biggest external threat!"

"If you think about it from another perspective, I am the being behind the City of Destiny, and then this Chen Ye is a fierce general who belongs to the hostile force [Spirit Realm]..."

"Moreover, I also met the old woman selling chestnuts and the old man Erhu at the same time, and even formed an alliance with the saint of Lieyang Church. There shouldn't be a bigger time bomb than myself, right?"

"It must be eradicated!"

"Since we are in the city of destiny, it is natural to use [destiny] to solve the problem..."

"After working for a long time, my identity may be the biggest villain?"

Chen Ye took a deep breath, and he had a clearer understanding of the equivalent exchange of "destiny"!

The suona played by the old man Erhu really didn’t come casually!

The price that needs to be paid is probably unimaginable!

However, this price has only just begun to show its signs. No one knows what will happen next...

The sense of crisis of approaching death came again.

But at this moment, Chen Ye didn't even know what he was fighting against.

If... the City of Destiny is the battlefield of the war between gods, then I am now located in the center of the whirlpool and connected to several different 'gods' authorities' at the same time.

In addition to [Soul Crosser], the thing in his hand is related to [Poseidon's Trident], and it is also related to [Poseidon]?

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

Chen Ye took three deep breaths in a row and gathered in his mind the possible 'authorities' in the City of Destiny:

"The new sequence of [Destiny] and [Spirit Realm] should be the main theme of the struggle, and Lucius's intention to create a ghost ship and create [Chapter 13 of Soul Crossing] should have a new owner, let's tentatively name it [Lord of the Spirit World]..."

"The original sequences of the strange era include [Scorching Sun], [Moon] and [Poseidon]..."

"In addition, similar sequences such as [Craftsman], [Art], and [God of Cookery] are also reflected in this city, but it is difficult to judge the current status."

"That last sentence makes me a little concerned..."

"My father will take on a new form..."

This sentence blurted out from the mouth of a pastor of the Burning Sun Church.

So, this "father" naturally refers to the Lord of the Fierce Sun!

New form...

Suddenly, Chen Ye thought of the high-hanging black sun!

Could it be that the "Lord of the Burning Sun" has actually been contaminated in some way and has become something wrong?

Chen Ye once again recalled that the aboriginal people in this city seldom carried out activities during the day.

Normal sunlight will not have any effect on the strange aborigines.

However, these residents are accustomed to being active at night...

Now after careful analysis, is it because there is a problem with [Fierce Sun]?

The aborigines of the strange era, driven by the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, avoided the daytime and chose to act at night?

When Chen Ye came back to his senses, his back could not help but be soaked with cold sweat.

"There is already something wrong with the sun..."

"As long as you walk in the daytime, you will face a ticking time bomb?"

"We players always think that it is safe during the day, but in fact, we are exposed to a time bomb that can explode at any time and we never know it?"

…………

PS: The latest update will be a little slower, one chapter will be two in one. In addition to the busy schedule and physical condition, it is also because the plot is difficult to write, and there are no manuscripts saved. The effect of the previous update was not good, so I will Choose to write slowly, focusing on quality. Whether or not to update depends on the status and situation of the day.

In terms of quality, you can rest assured that all the foreshadowing that should have been accepted will be accepted, and there will be no eunuchs.

Originally I wanted to write faster, but the effect was mediocre, so I will choose to write slower next time.
