He put away his coffin and took Fen, who had fallen into a low ebb for no apparent reason, to leave. The two returned to their room without attracting the attention of any dwarves. Although they live in the same room, they sleep in separate beds, and the bed for one person is combined with several dwarf beds, barely allowing the person lying on it to stretch out his legs.
The reason why I brought Fen back was because Lin still had a question that couldn't be asked face to face. Taking this opportunity, he took Fen to sit on the edge of the bed and asked, "How did you get that video?"
When Fen came back to his senses, he was a little excited at first, and then felt disappointed at someone's question. She said with some enthusiasm: "Didn't you send me a message, so I tried to go inside and take a look around. I found that the visual field and the sound that could be connected were only from one angle, and it had something to do with you. , so I kept the image in the first coffin. It came in handy later, which is really great."
The content of what Fen said seemed happy, but the tone of the words was flat and completely devoid of emotion. According to previous experience, if the lich is allowed to maintain such an emotion for too long, something terrible will happen later. A certain lich who has an emotional outburst will play tricks without any limits.
In order to avoid the worst situation, Lin still tried to encourage: "Don't be so depressed. We can successfully convince those dwarves today, and the video you recorded is indispensable. So you can be proud, well done good!"
"Good job?" Fen's eyes seemed to have regained consciousness, shining with a strange light.
"Yes, I am complimenting you. Accept it happily."
I saw Fen slightly sticking out her fragrant tongue, crossing the dry lips, bringing a trace of moisture. The simple and inadvertent action made someone shiver.
While sleeping, a loud noise suddenly echoed in the underground space, causing the exhausted person to wake up from the bed. Lin just wanted to get up and look out the window to see what was going on. But without going to the window, someone could understand where the strange feeling came from.
The Silverbeard Dwarf City at night may not look like a city that never sleeps like the bustling metropolises on Earth, but the nights here are still dotted with many lights. It is not candlelight, not oil lamp, nor burning wood and charcoal, but using the energy delivered by the nuclear zone to ignite the eternal fire that does not exist in the outside world.
Well, in fact, that thing is an electric light, don't use the term "magic" to confuse people. But I can't guarantee whether the principles inside are the same.
But now there is no light outside the window, it is just pitch black. It was quite deep black, as if there was something destructive hidden there.
Suddenly there was a noise outside the door, and at the same time there was a knocking on the door. Lin just wanted to curse, but Jermaine's anxious voice came from outside the door, shouting: "Brother, open the door quickly, the situation is urgent, and I need your help. Is the person awake? If you don't hurry up, we will do it." It’s too late. Please!”
Being shouted like this, it won't work if I don't open it. It's just that someone was careful and didn't get up. Instead, he used the magic giant palm to remove the door latch from a distance. As soon as he heard the sound of the door latch falling, Jermaine rushed in in a panic. The whole person was panting, and he was holding a very old oil lamp in his hand.
Seeing the dwarf's embarrassment, Lin Xiao scolded: "Hey, little brother, what urgent matter requires you to knock on my door in the middle of the night?"
"Please, please come and help me. My old man is trapped in the nuclear zone." Jermaine grabbed Lin and said anxiously as he was about to pull him out.
"Hey, hey, calm down, speak slowly, and figure out what happened first so that others can deal with it. First, why did your father get stuck in a place like that? He doesn't seem to be an impulsive and reckless person. Lin asked.
"My old man is not, and his brother is not necessarily the same. My uncle led a group of people and broke into the nuclear zone to ask Lady Lupita for an explanation. And they are still the group that supports the complete destruction of the guardian's consciousness. I'm afraid they will fight. Their idea was to cause trouble. After making the matter bigger, they forced my old man to agree to their approach."
"Your father has a different opinion?"
"Yes. Most dwarves feel that the Guardian should be kept, but the memory should be cleared and let her start over. This is what we have done for a long time whenever we sense that the Guardian is in danger of rebellion."
"It's all..." After hearing the key information, Lin asked: "Has something like this happened more than once?"
"Yes, more than once. But I heard from the elders who have experienced it in the past that things are usually resolved smoothly. But today's situation is different."
"What's the difference?"
"It's just like the last time we went in. I heard from those who escaped that as long as those who entered were wearing peaceful weapons, they were all controlled. It's good not to be able to move, but the worst thing is being controlled. Let's interact with each other. Massacre."
Judging from this posture, this is Skynet plus the Terminator on Judgment Day. In response to this, Lin asked the second question: "If you can go in smoothly, how can you solve the problem this time? Or ask, how can you solve her? Your guardian."
"Near the nuclear room, there is a control room. In addition to controlling the nuclear reaction, the guardian's soul magic stone is also placed there. As long as she takes out the magic stone, she can disconnect from the console. , causing her to lose control of the energy core area. Generally speaking, there is a magic circle nearby that purifies and washes the soul. As long as the magic stone is placed there and the ritual is performed, a clean one can be obtained in a few days. Guardian Soul.”
Purify? Cleanse the soul? Only a few days left! No matter how I heard it, I felt it was unreliable. Souls and memories are not so easy to manipulate, whether it is the earth or the lost land. As long as it is done, it is not impossible to clean it up, and you will always see traces other than manipulation in the subconscious picture; or it is being controlled by force, and the whole person becomes confused and seems abnormal.
Of course, there is another situation where perfect coordination will appear, and that is 'pretending'. Pretending to have amnesia, pretending to be insane, pretending to have no memory, pretending to have experienced events is actually a different situation.
So Lin was guessing whether those bad memories remained in the depths of the guardian's consciousness in some form. After a long period of accumulation, another sudden explosion? And those times of 'soul purification' actually just forced her to hide deeper.
Unfortunately, Lin had no way of knowing what that person was thinking. Although you can enter the bottom floor of the guardian and seize control, it does not mean that you can analyze her artificial soul.
