Making wishes is a common behavior for everyone living in the wishing world, and after more than half a century has passed since the wishing network was fully established, wishing has become a deeply rooted habit. Deep inside everyone.
From the time when the magical wish-making technique first came into people’s sight during the War of Miracles, to the subsequent development of the Age of Miracles, this convenient technology was introduced to everyone in the world, and then to the wish-making network covering every corner of the earth. All human beings have accepted the supernatural. Transform and become a member of the end of the network.
People's attitude towards this emerging technology that has changed the times has also changed from a repressive attitude of suspicion and fear to now that almost everyone who has tried the convenience of the wish-making network is full of praise for this invention of the century.
But only two groups of people have reservations about this convenient invention of the century.
One type is the old die-hards who still miss life in the old era and seek a sense of identity. Most of them are people who were born and grew up in the old era. They suffer from shortcomings and reality in the old era. They want to The ideal they want to realize has been unable to be realized due to reality and various reasons. The arrival of the new era has made it easy for most of them to realize their ideals, and also made them lose the goal they fought for.
This feels like... when you are playing an online action game that is so difficult that it makes your scalp numb, and suddenly someone jumps out and forcibly gives you a game cheat code, making the whole game no longer difficult.
Those who pursue wealth will obtain endless wealth if they make a wish; those who pursue power will obtain a status above ten thousand people; those who pursue immortality will obtain a life that will never fade away; those who pursue it for more than ten or twenty years may even Most of my life's ideals can be realized overnight.
But at the same time, this has also become a curse, a deformed curse that makes people no longer able to recognize the achievements of others’ efforts and persistence.
Because what you can do, others can do easily, and what you want to get, others can also get easily. Your efforts will not be resonated and recognized by others. On the contrary, there will be people who will achieve better results than you by making wishes... Although everyone has obtained great satisfaction on the material level, they are correspondingly longing for it. The spiritual level of recognition becomes extremely lacking.
The other type of people are the guards who have been recruited into the Rebel Guards and are loyal to the pioneers of the new era.
They know what the real threat is and what the consequences will be if the power of wishing is out of control.
Always be vigilant, always introspect, and carefully exercise this power that should not suddenly appear in this era...
The wishing network rippled. When the collective wish of the Rebel Guards was shaped by the young adjutant and formally submitted, the wishing network also omitted their search and rescue efforts in the middle and directly presented the results of the search and rescue in front of them. .
The world that originally existed objectively was distorted by subjective idealistic desires. In the grass behind the rebel guards, wounded people who were unconscious and covered in blood emerged one after another. Wu Ming, Mori, Elizabeth, and others transformed back in time when they felt the teleportation transfer. Siegfried in human form is also among them.
Wu Ming curiously looked around at the wounded, then shrugged at Mori: "It seems that they are very experienced in dealing with this kind of thing. Fortunately, they also know how to rescue the survivors first, instead of going straight to the Russian style. The way to rescue..."
Elizabeth leaned forward from the side: "Brother, big brother, what will happen if we take the Russian-style rescue route?"
Siegfried also cast a glance, obviously very curious about this question.
Wu Ming thought carefully and replied: "Then we may have to face the light and heat released by the asteroid impact at the impact point, while they pray for our safety in the outer area..."
When Elizabeth heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Siegfried next to her with an eager expression.
It was like "How about we take advantage of the big brother's inattention and sneak in and taste the feeling of having an asteroid on our face?"
However, Siegfried, who was also a little moved at first, immediately changed his mind after seeing Elizabeth's expression. He snorted and turned away without answering her.
Mori breathed a sigh of relief, completely relaxed and collapsed on the ground.
As a resident of this world, no one can provide him with a more reliable sense of security than the Rebel Guards. Moreover, they can use the wishing technique to pull themselves out, which means that this is an area where the wishing network can respond, at least in terms of life. With the most basic protection.
On the other side, the battle against the Rebel Guards is not over yet.
"Captain! The wish has been fulfilled!"
The sky in the distance has been completely ignited, and a huge blazing fireball has appeared in the field of vision. It is rushing straight to the ground with a long flame tail at an incredible speed.
Vincent continued to order without looking back: "Immediately launch protective measures to limit the scope of damage to this city."
"Yes! Captain!" The young adjutant immediately accepted the order and started mental calibration for the second round of making wishes.
But this time, there is still a nearly massive amount of wishing power swirling in the wishing network.
To stop the spread of the damage range of an impact explosion, this is no longer something that can be accomplished by one's own strength alone. If you want to do this, you can only resort to the Great Wish Technique.
The willpower that each member of the Rebel Guards had accumulated over time was used just for this moment, and the vortex formed by the willpower began to change the objective reality.
The surrounding space no longer has continuity from a certain point, and the phenomenon of grafting and replacement occurs at the spatial level. From the destroyed city center to the point three hundred meters in front of the rebel guards, a radius spherical space is formed, forming a A Möbius closed loop connected end to end will appear at the other end of the sphere once it reaches the boundary.
The speed of grafting and replacement at the space level is very fast. It only takes two or three seconds at most from the time the Great Wishing Spell receives the wish network response to the completion of grafting and replacement in the entire space. When the large-mass meteorite falls on the ground, the impact caused by The moment the energy bursts out, the defense circle has been established.
At the same time, the meteorite that fell at high speed also emitted a flash of light that was enough to burn the eyeballs and cause blindness.
But people cannot get out of this Möbius loop at the spatial level, and the energy generated by the asteroid impact is also not enough to break through this closed self-consistent cycle.
The earth in the spherical space turned into scorched earth in an instant, and gradually crystallized during the process of repeated burning and explosion. The air remaining inside would soon burn out, and the explosive energy erupted from the impact was firmly bound here. In the spherical space, no matter how violent energy washes away the boundaries of the space, it cannot break the closed space and allow it to reconnect with the normal space.
The crisis has subsided, the survivors have been rescued, and all that's left is to deal with the mess.
"You are Mori, right? You and your companions rescued many survivors, and then marched all the way to the mother body of disaster..."
As soon as he was free here, Vincent turned to look at Morrie. The latter was flattered that the former actually knew his name, but thinking about his unusual appearance, he suddenly became nervous like a child who made a mistake. He kept rubbing his fingers and stuttered a little when he spoke: "Yes... yes, I also saw some..."
"It's a pity that you were arrested." Vincent did not let Morrie finish what he said, "Adjutant, hand him over. As for you..."
Wu Ming stood up with a smile and stood between the two of them: "I must reiterate, Mori is our companion..."
He emphasized the word 'we', pointed at Siegfried and Elizabeth beside him, and then continued, "What he saw, we naturally saw too, and we might even mess around. Said, so we are not immune..."
Siegfried's ears twitched, and he turned his head and glared at Wu Ming fiercely. At the same time, a voice sounded in the spiritual link: "Are we going to get involved too?"
"This is exactly what we came here for." Wu Ming replied calmly through the spiritual link.
In reality, Vincent's eyelids twitched at what Wu Ming said: "Adjutant, bring some more restraints and put them on them too."
The young adjutant took out several palm-sized transparent cubes from his arms, and then saw the cubes squirming as if they were melting, and soon transformed into several pairs of shining golden handcuffs.
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at the limited edition gold bracelet in front of him. He rubbed his hands with excitement and grinned: "Oh my god, this is the first time I have experienced this."
Seeing how excited he was, the young adjutant had a strange expression on his face. He shook his head and muttered in a low voice: "It's not a good thing. As for being so happy..."
Then the young adjutant followed the same example and cuffed Elizabeth, who volunteered, Siegfried who was reluctant, and Morrie who was confused and surprised.
"I'll take a few people and bring them back..." After everyone was cuffed, Vincent looked around and made sure nothing was missing before continuing: "Adjutant, you are responsible for the aftermath here, don't worry, The ones left behind are all reliable veterans. When you are not sure about your decision, talk to them first and they will tell you what to do and when.”
"Yes, Captain!"
Vincent nodded, and immediately took three rebellion guards, made a wish to the wishing network, and left the plain with Wu Ming and others.
