"If you want, you can go by yourself," Talos said before his subordinates clashed again: "After all, I didn't arrange for you to explore the "Death is Coming" series and you went too, didn't you?"
"This subordinate is——"
“No need to explain,” Talos waved his hand: “[Athathoth]’s awakening will cause the destruction of [the universe], but no one realizes that the concept of [the universe] also includes [Athathoth] himself. This This resulted in those 'outer gods' and 'old days' all reversing their 'incarnation' existence form, that is, the 'false identity' became the 'true identity', [Nyarlathotep] Therefore, it disappeared, but 'Nyarko' and the anthropomorphic 'incarnations' of the same series still exist, and you, Hermaeus Mora, first transformed into [Nyarlathotep] and divided into [Swollen Daughter] Incarnate as 'Nayako', and then split the [Black Pharaoh] into 'Narud', and then used the false identity [Mora] to promote the birth of the [Queen of Blades] in the name of 'Amon' in order to obtain the 'Power Gem'. Do you think, after all these things, 'she' will not notice you at all?"
"...Although I can't hear half of it, Mora is still as capable of causing trouble as ever." Nocturnal complained.
"As expected of Lord Talos." Mora boasted without admitting or denying.
"Heh," Talos chuckled noncommittally, "I will not interfere with your actions, but I want to give you a piece of advice: for you now, a mysterious identity like 'Coroner' is the limit. , if you are too involved in the world and are trapped, I will not risk angering 'her' to save you."
"What about you, sir?" DiBella asked at the right time.
"Me?" Talos smiled: "I'm going to play a guest role as the 'Reincarnator'."
"...Huh?" "Huh?" "This..."
"No, wait, Master Talos," Mora was the first to react. "At present, all the 'reincarnators' come from the 'higher dimensions' that we cannot observe, but the 'Lord God' can control the 'higher dimensional world' With a certain level of observation, if you pretend to be a 'reincarnation', you will be discovered immediately."
"You're right," Talos nodded: "But the 'Reincarnator' I pretend to be doesn't need to deceive the 'Main God', as long as I can deceive the 'Golden Crystal', it's enough."
"Who is that?" "It looks like a female name." Nocturnal and DiBella whispered, then turned away from each other in disgust.
"This..." Mora pondered: "This is possible. After all, although the 'dimension' of these 'reincarnations' is high, their 'wisdom' cannot keep up. But if you want to contact the 'reincarnations', you must It means being directly exposed to the gaze of 'that person', are you sure there is no problem?"
"As the 'Main God', as long as 'she' wants to know someone's identity, she will know it immediately. This is indeed a bit troublesome, but what if 'she' doesn't want to know'?" Talos raised his hand and began to calculate: "" "Ash" in "Alien 1", "Tushan Rei Ling", "A Ming and Yuki", "Kurosawa Aiyo and Shirogiku" and "Enma Ai" in "The Grudge", "The Mummy" 'JOJO', 'Hassan', 'Alan' and 'The Gravekeepers', 'The Disguised Geek', 'JoJo 2', 'Chris and Claire', 'Hannibal' in "Death Comes" ', 'The Shining,' and others I may have missed, all of which she didn't get to the bottom of."
"..." "..." Nocturnal and DiBella couldn't understand it at all.
"Their common characteristic is..." Maura said slowly: "You can judge their identity just by their name, appearance and behavior, and there is no need to go into details."
"A simple example is..." Talos looked at him: "If a black man with a hearty smile and likes to make trouble appears in front of us, then he will be directly regarded as [Nyarlathotep] or 'Mora' without bothering to double check who he really is."
"Oh! Isn't this guy Mora? Can I kill him?" Nocturnal, who was a little drowsy, suddenly became energetic.
"I roughly understand what you mean... but please don't use me as an example, Lord Talos." Mora touched her nose: "In other words, you are planning to enter as an 'NPC whose identity can be seen at a glance' Is it the world of reincarnation? This does avoid the problem of errors when issuing rewards, but as an NPC, how can you make the 'reincarnation' believe that you are also a reincarnation without being noticed by 'that person'?"
"To be precise, it's the 'Reincarnation of the Virtual Dimension'. As for the method..." Talos raised his hand to the empty place in front of the throne: "Grey Wind?"
call--
Following his movements, a fire suddenly ignited at that location, and then a ball of firewood was formed on the ground. Then a red-burning spiral sword inserted out of thin air appeared on the firewood. Finally, a A beautiful girl with short white hair, a black mask covering her eyes, wearing a tight-fitting black silver-patterned war dress, long gloves and combat boots of the same style, and a long sword at her waist appeared next to the fire.
"Ember Storm?" "Fireproof Girl?" "Time Stone?!"
"Lord Ash One," the girl ignored the exclamations of demon gods around her and saluted Talos with her fists raised: "Grey Wind has lived up to his mission."
"Well..." Talos' expression changed, as if he wanted to say something but finally gave up: "Show me your results."
"Yes." The girl who called herself Gray Wind nodded slightly and pulled the spiral sword directly from the bonfire with her backhand.
At the same time, a translucent panel that looked like an ancient stone slab appeared in front of everyone present, and on it, a rather modern report was engraved with simple and mysterious words.
【Project number: ***-616】
[Project Level: Keter]
[Containment measures: Due to the special properties of ***-616, it is currently impossible to design a feasible containment method for it. 】
[Description: ***-616 is a dimensional erosion phenomenon that occurs irregularly. Its occurrence and termination have no clear signs or rules, and its process seems to be completely random.
Foundation executives are still debating whether the phenomenon is an "anomalous item" or an "accident" for which Cyberlux is responsible.
Although the project has not yet shown any hostility or threat to the universe or the Galactic Alliance, at the insistence of some management, the Foundation still designated the project as keter-level [the proposed list can be viewed with O5 authority].
According to existing observation records, ***-616 has the following characteristics:
1. The probability of ***-616 appearing in a form containing elements of horror, thriller, supernatural and other elements is relatively high, accounting for more than 80%, and it often involves other *** projects.
Second, when ***-616 appears, one to forty humanoid creatures (named ***-616-1) will be transported to the place of occurrence. The method and principle of its transmission are unknown.
3. All ***-616-1 observed so far are young humans over sixteen years old. The male to female ratio is 9:1. The racial distribution is relatively even. The clothing they wear has a wide range. It has been observed Examples include but are not limited to: special forces uniforms, suits, bathrobes, medieval armor, ancient Chinese armor, casual clothes, and various costumes of fictional characters taken from, comics, and film and television works. Generally, they will be carried with them to match. Weaponry. [Appendix I: Partial image of ***-616-1]
Fourth, some ***-616-1 will exhibit special abilities, such as physical variation, energy conversion, mental interference, molecular influence, time and space guidance, order destruction, and unknown areas that cannot be classified. Although their abilities are basically the same as the current classification. They are the same, but they all have at least one "space-time guidance" ability, that is, "accessing items from unobservable space."
Five, ***-616 will communicate with ***-616-1 in some form that we cannot observe, and give them "tasks". These "tasks" can be plural or conflict with each other. When there are conflicting missions, ***-616-1 will attempt to attack each other and kill other ***-616-1 [Appendix II: Some Known Missions].
Sixth, the vast majority of ***-616-1 will show contempt or even disregard for their own lives when they are "in a situation where death is inevitable" or "in order to help their companions complete their mission."
7. When ***-616 occurs, it will affect a range ranging from large vehicles and single-family houses to small villages and large cities. Everything within this range will contain horror, thriller, supernatural and other contents. event, and may cause the death of a large number of ***-616-1 and local residents, and when ***-616 is terminated, the affected area will completely return to its state before the occurrence [Appendix III: Investigation results of the area 】.
8. ***-616-1 may be injured or dead when encountering an incident, but when they use medical supplies, their efficiency far exceeds conventional medical effects. Even if they die, they may be 'resurrected' again. When all * After **-616-1 is confirmed dead, ***-616 will terminate immediately.
9. After ***-616 has been running for a certain period of time, there is a high probability that one or more individuals (named ***-616-2) that meet the criteria of horror, horror, and supernatural will appear. When ***-616-2 appears , will block the surrounding smaller range of scenes in the form of fog, and try to kill ***-616-1 within the blocked range. 】
[Related documents: Observation Plan: Even if we are temporarily unable to contain ***-616, with the foundation’s existing technological capabilities, we can definitely try to send someone to join it as ***-616-1 (***- 616 did not exclude our entry) and observe the whole process, and even intervene to a certain extent, this will help us understand the various characteristics of this project in more detail, and maybe one day we can Be able to take control and take advantage of it. 】
[Note: All O5 members please read document 616-O5-1]
[Document 616-O5-1: Okay, let me get straight to the point, this is the leakage of the 'virtual dimension' created by the cybernetic brains of Cyberlux! It’s a “virtual dimension erosion”! And I actually want to document their game world settings! They may feel proud that they have upgraded the "data space" to a "virtual dimension", but for us, this is not fun at all! You know, in the "game" designed by those guys, there is something that can destroy the entire universe! If those things erode into the real world, none of you who are reading this document will be able to escape! Yes, we have some powerful *** projects, but they are based on facts and logic! The reincarnation world created by those machine brains has no logic at all! To hell with the observation program, what we should be doing is letting those cybernetic brains at Cyberlux handle this mess! 】
[Additional: All O5 members who have read document 616-O5-1 are asked to read document 616-O5-2]
[Document 616-O5-2: As a Cyberlux O5, we must point out that the starting point of the previous document is completely wrong. After the 'virtual world' was upgraded to a 'virtual dimension', the host Grox has lost its control over it. The current owner of the underlying command authority is the great dimension maintainer, the Supreme Mage, Ms. Luo Shen. After the ***-616 project occurred, Ms. Luo Shen contacted us immediately and assured us that it was not a 'virtual dimension' Corrosion', if the erosion really happens, she will definitely stop it as soon as possible. It is because of the promise of Ms. Supreme Mage that we have not taken any measures against ***-616. Currently ***-616 has spread to this kind of To the extent that everyone is to blame, we reject the accusation of being the culprit of the accident and are convinced that it is those Wataum who "believed that reality is a virtual world" and conducted various related experiments that should be responsible for the incident. 】
[Empty document: You stinky table! I want to challenge you! 】
[Empty document: Each of us has a thousand logical units active at any time. There is no concept of 'one-on-one', but you can name a place and we will definitely accompany you. 】

"Uh... um..." After reading the document, Nocturnal and DiBella turned to read the appendix, while Dagon and Poit stared in confusion.
"Haha, it's true that different levels have different perspectives on things," Moragon laughed twice: "'That' experiment to go to higher dimensions still caused a lot of commotion in the 'Kingdom of God'."
"No, not entirely," Talos closed the document and shook his head slowly: "What really happened directly in the 'Almighty Universe', the so-called '***616', is only [Alien 1], the rest should be prepared The impact of [Resident Evil] when it is insufficient is the real 'dimensional erosion'. Although [Ancient One], although Luo Shen can easily block this dimensional erosion, she can no longer create a 'true· The reincarnation world', so it is better to fool these dependents and make them think that this is just the virtual dimension erosion of Cyberlux. After all, our 'high dimension' is 'high dimension' to them. Don't tell others, Wo If Taomu and the others learn the truth, they will probably explode on the spot.”
"So, what do you mean..." Maura asked thoughtfully.
"I will contact Jin Jing as a 'reincarnation in the virtual dimension'. She has already met those people in White Bear, so there will be no surprises, but this 'reincarnation' is not that 'reincarnation'," Talos Turning to Gray Wind: "And she will be my 'teammate'."
"As you wish, Lord Ashes." Gray Wind replied with his hand on the sword.
"..." Nocturnal and DiBella seemed to want to say something, but finally gave up.
