squeak--
With the screeching sound of brakes, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan stopped in front of them, and then a pair of handsome men and women got out of the car.
The man looked calm and held a black umbrella in his hand.
The girl under the umbrella was smiling and had a red brocade bag embroidered with mandarin ducks tied around her waist.
"grown ups!"
"Living Buddha!"
Two different sounds came out at the same time.
The second leader and the second leader looked at each other from afar.
Invisible sparks burst into the air, which was their dissatisfaction with the other party trying to compete with them.
"That's enough." Wang Ran interrupted them, "Tell me the specific situation."
He glanced into the building and saw Bai Fan squatting on the stairs with a strange expression.
He was a little confused, thinking what happened to Bai Fan?
After communicating with the second leader and the others, has your worldview changed a little?
"Living Buddha, I know better." Er winked and said, "Let me tell you, let me tell you!"
He was a leader before and knew many secrets.
Wang Ran came back to his senses and nodded slightly.
Er introduced: "The awakening ceremony is actually to send a message to the giant beast, telling the giant beast what has become outside, thereby prompting it to actively revive."
He paused.
Seeing that Wang Ran had no problem, he continued: "The difficulty of the ceremony is how to make the giant beast believe in us... Bah, bah, bah, we believe in those anti-social trash of the Apostles of Doom!"
Wang Ran asked doubtfully: "Is this difficult?"
Er said seriously: "It's very difficult!"
"The giant beast fell asleep because it was too seriously injured. It has a deep fear of the outside world. Only the most sincere heart can wake it up."
Wang Ran raised his eyebrows: "Continue."
Er said with emotion: "They initially wanted to use children aged four to six to awaken the giant beast, because children's hearts are the most sincere."
"But children don't understand anything and are easily scared."
"The giant beast doesn't dare to revive because of fear. Children themselves are afraid, let alone expect them to be able to wake up the giant beast."
Wang Ran nodded slowly: "What happened next?"
"Later they discovered that even if the children were not afraid and the giant beast believed them, the giant beast would not be willing to revive."
"Because children's understanding of the world is too superficial and cannot provide enough information to giant beasts."
What a child thinks is safe may not necessarily mean it is truly safe.
Wang Ran thoughtfully said: "So in order to revive the giant beast, the person who awakens it must be sincere and well-informed."
Er seized the opportunity and flattered him: "The Living Buddha is wise!"
Wang Ran remained silent.
"Stop flattering!" The second leader glared at the two, "If you know anything else, tell me quickly!"
Er immediately said: "Then they came up with a way to connect the thinking of a child with the thinking of six adults."
"Use the child's thinking as the main one and let him communicate with the giant; the adult's thinking as the supplement, provide the giant with the information it wants to know."
Wang Ran said in surprise: "Can seven people use one brain to do this?"
Er affirmed: "It can be done!"
"They tried it once two years ago. That time they woke up the giant beast from a deep sleep to a shallow sleep. If they try it again, they can completely wake up the giant beast."
Wang Ran wondered: "Then why not wake it up twice in a row?"
Er sighed and said: "The information being read places a heavy burden on the brain. People who participated in the ceremony died one after another after the ceremony. It takes time to gather the next wave of suitable people."
This...is a sacrifice, right?
Wang Ran frowned. According to the information he got from the simulator, Bai Fan's childhood sweetheart was one of the people sacrificed in the awakening ceremony.
He asked: "Do the people who participated in the last wave of awakening rituals know about this?"
"I know, they are all voluntary." Er paused, "Except for that child."
Wang Ran was silent.
Er hesitated and said: "In order to maintain the purity of the child's heart, the doomsday apostle will not tell the child any negative news. The child thought the ceremony was just a game before he died."
Wang Ran asked again: "Isn't that the only child who died?"
His voice was a little cold.
Yi Ya, who was holding his arm, also looked unhappy.
Except for that successful awakening ceremony, there have been many failed awakening rituals before. If a four to six-year-old child died in each ceremony...
The doomsday apostle is simply crazy!
Er noticed that Wang Ran's tone was wrong.
He raised his head and glanced at Wang Ran's face, and then hurriedly clarified the relationship: "Living Buddha, I have been practicing on the island, and the sick and tubercular ghost has always been responsible for the things here."
"As for how many children were consumed..."
He answered cautiously: "After five or six years of experimentation, there should be one or two hundred children."
Yi Ya frowned and said, "Where do so many children come from?"
Although she is also a member of the Doomsday Apostles, she has always been outside the shadow of the Doomsday Apostles and has no idea what the Doomsday Apostles have done.
One or two hundred ignorant children...
Er didn't know who Yi Ya was, but he could tell that Yi Ya had a close relationship with Wang Ran, and he vaguely felt a strong death threat from Yi Ya.
He nervously answered Yi Ya's question: "Most of them were bought from human traffickers, and the other part were adopted from orphanages."
Wang Ran sighed deeply.
The past is hard to recall.
When the doomsday apostle experimented on children, he had not yet traveled to this world.
All he could do was prevent something like this from happening again.
He no longer asked about the child, but instead asked about the method of destroying the awakening ceremony: "So as long as you scare the giant beast once, the giant beast will not revive?"
Er nodded dully: "Theoretically, this is true, but when they awakened the giant beast before, they had already implanted a wave of information into the giant beast, and now they want to deceive it..."
Wang Ran turned to look at Yi.
He specially selected a talent that could improve his credit, in order to fool the giant beast.
Yi coughed slightly: "The ability you gave me is very magical. I am sure to deceive the giant beast."
【Credit Loan】
[You can overdraw your credit for a period of time in the future in exchange for others' trust in you this time]
Although it is unclear what the consequences of overdrafting your credit are, according to the description, this talent can 100% gain the trust of the behemoth.
Er hesitated: "It's not enough to just gain trust. You have to let the giant beast read the information in the brain. After reading the information, there is a huge risk of brain death."
"I think it's better to kill all the doomsday apostles down there, once and for all. It will be very easy for you."
Yi Ya looked at Wang Ran curiously.
In her perception, Wang Ran was just an ordinary person.
Why is this guy so confident in Bad Bao?
Wang Ran shook his head: "Only kill the first culprit, and treat the others as dogs."
He may have to deal with some disasters in the future, and he needs capable people to help him take care of the big business of the Doomsday Apostles.
Except for the Grand Hierarch and Taoist Ji'an who must die, others can deal with it as appropriate.
Wang Ran thought that now that he had understood everything he needed to know, it was time to go down and meet Taoist Ji'an.
But before that, he had one more thing to do.
