After the meeting with the prophecy sage Lucelido, Yang Tianyi and the others, led by Aret, successfully checked into the luxurious suite specially prepared for guests in the fortress. In addition to the expensive custom decoration, the suite is also equipped with a virtual meditation room that is normally only accessible to members within the sect, making it easier and smoother for the latent body to awaken its psychic powers.
Watching Master Aret's back disappear at the corner of the fortress corridor, Lisa Bai Yin stood at the door of the suite, glanced at the two people who were changing slippers at the entrance, hesitated again and said: "This is a bonus of 100 million credits. , emotions and reasons have nothing to do with me. I'd better go live in the lower dormitory, good night you two."
Without waiting for Yang Tianyi to persuade him to stay, the proud female captain hurriedly left his sight. Her panicked look made the former a little bit dumbfounded, but she couldn't say much.
She was right, this luxurious suite was a special treatment that she got by spending 100 million credit points. As a naval captain and submarine force commander of the Human Federation, Yin Lisabai can certainly allocate some of the federal operation funds for personal expenses.
After all, as the central nervous system of the army, senior officers enjoy better treatment than ordinary soldiers. It is an unspoken rule in the People's Alliance Army. However, Yin Lisabai, who has been following her mother since she was a child and has good conduct, cannot do such a generous behavior. .
Especially when she still had no doubts about Yang Tianyi and Qunxing Group, it would be too shameless to live in a room that others spent a lot of money to get. Considering that there are so many single rooms in the suite, Yin Lisabai puts the relationship between men and women as secondary factors.
But looking at Juliana who was staring at him, Yang Tianyi couldn't help but feel a little headache.
You must know that during the entire half-month period when the fleet sailed to Aurora 2, the young Juliana was always taken care of by his two-meter-tall female bodyguards and female soldiers from the submarine force. In addition to occasionally accompanying the little girl to watch, he himself Apart from reading and playing chess, I don't have any parenting experience.
Now that the female soldiers have moved into the collective dormitory and are preparing for tomorrow's trip to the virtual realm, it is impossible for him to ask Yin Lisabai to send him some female soldiers to take care of the children. And his bodyguard was deemed unfit to enter the virtual realm by Arete due to the nano-solution transformation, and was forced to wait for the boss's return in the real universe.
He originally invited the female captain to stay in the suite with him, with the intention of asking her to help take care of little Julie for the next two days. Now that Yin Lisabai's figure is gone, who else can she ask to help her?
While he was thinking silently, little Julie, who had put on her slippers, ran all the way into the meditation room at the deepest part of the suite. Following the instructions in the holographic image, she calmly sat down on the soft cushion in the center of the meditation room and started talking with him. The communication in the virtual realm failed, but he held his breath and concentrated for a long time without success. The red face looked very interesting in Yang Tianyi's eyes.
"Little Julie, please play alone in the room for a while and don't move around. I have something to talk to Miss Woodville about."
Seeing the little girl nodding obediently, Yang Tianyi walked out of the room with confidence, recalled the direction in which Yin Lisabai left, and quickly chased after her.
...
"According to what you said, Master, the four evil gods of the virtual realm have not appeared in the real universe for a long time?"
At the end of the corner of the corridor, in the room of virtual realm instructor Arete, Yin Lisabai was sitting on her knees at the low table, her eyes full of curiosity about the unknown.
At this time, there was almost no difference between her and Juliana. She was just a little girl who loved to listen to stories and was a little willful.
Arete shook his head and was about to speak, but when he sensed someone coming outside the door, he opened the door for him with his telekinesis. When he found out it was Yang Tianyi, he asked in surprise: "It turns out to be Mr. Yang. Is there something wrong with the suite?" ?"
"No, no, no, the room of the cult is very big and warm. I am just like Miss Woodville, I am very interested in the four gods of the virtual realm that you have not finished talking about in the spiritual world before, so I came to be your second guest. audience."
"I see, then please take a seat. You came at the right time."
Hearing this, Yang Tianyi hurriedly came to Yin Lisabai and sat down cross-legged. He gave the female captain a meaningless smile and then sat upright, leaving the other party a little confused.
"Since both of you are so interested in the Void Realm Evil God, let's continue the topic we just left on, about the Void Realm Evil God's influence on the real universe and the way they exert influence on the material world."
"First of all, there is no connection between the virtual world and the material world. This can be seen from the virtual world cracks all over the galaxy. To a certain extent, the virtual world is a reflection of the real universe in another dimension. Many psychic events that occur in the real universe will also affect the creatures and energy flows in the virtual realm."
"So much so that there has always been a saying within the Void Realm Walker city-state that the real universe has given birth to the Void Realm. If the material world is destroyed, the Void Realm will also collapse with it. Of course, I personally do not agree with this statement. Yes, after all, countless years have passed since the birth of the virtual realm. Even the fallen empire dare not say that it fully understands the virtual realm, let alone us successors..."
Regarding the question raised by Lisa Bai Yin just now, Aret said that existences of persons such as the Four Gods of the Virtual Realm would generally not visit the real universe in person. What's more, even if they wanted to, they don't have such a strong body to carry their own will.
Maybe it's for fun, maybe it's to enhance one's supreme power through believers in the real universe. There are often psykers who are weak-minded and try to take shortcuts in psychic practice to sign contracts with them and make sacrifices. In exchange for the favor of the evil god.
Signing a contract with the evil god is undoubtedly playing with fire and burning oneself, and Arete naturally disdains this approach of trying to get nothing out of a bamboo basket. But as a psyker, he could understand the almost pathological desire for power among those followers of the evil god.
However, how can the faith of individual psykers and small-scale sacrifices satisfy the appetite of the evil god? According to historical records in the Voidwalker City-State Archives, there has never been a shortage of civilized empires in the galaxy that declined and were destroyed due to the people's belief in the evil god. .
These empires once prospered due to their fanatical belief in evil gods. Unfortunately, after their short-lived glory, billions and tens of billions of creatures will eventually regret their foolish and reckless fanaticism.
There were many examples of people throughout the empire collectively believing in evil gods, but Arete did not intend to use those examples to warn Yang Tianyi and Yin Lisabai. After all, with the current status of these two people, even if they talk about it, it will be of little use. It would be more shocking to talk about the tragic situation of individual psykers after signing a contract with the evil god.
Finally, under the gazes of the two listeners who were either curious or thinking, Arete spoke in a deep voice the names of the four evil gods of the virtual realm and the benefits of signing a contract with them.
"Behind the psychic curtain woven with terrifying power, there are four great beings who have lived with the virtual realm since its birth."
"The first evil god, her name is the Weave of Life. Signing a contract with her can increase the lifespan and vitality of psykers. This is exactly what many non-immortal psykers pursue throughout their lives. With her, With the blessing, you will have an almost infinite lifespan and inexhaustible vitality, and you can squander the time that was extremely precious to you in the past."
He did not say that after signing the contract, the contractor of the Weave of Life will gradually lose his personality and emotions and become a machine with no emotions and only energy.
What's even more terrifying is that the contractor's body will undergo significant mutations due to the infection of the evil god's will. As for whether those disgusting mutations are good or bad, it is left to the contractors themselves to evaluate.
"The second evil god, her name is the Eater of the World. Signing a contract with her can greatly increase the strength and power of psykers. Before signing the contract, you may be just an ordinary energy warlock, but after With the blessing of her power, you will become an unparalleled presence on the battlefield, and you can even destroy the surface and ecology of the entire planet by yourself."
He did not say that the World Eater is the most "hungry" existence among the four gods.
If the contractor is very lucky and the evil god is not so hungry when collecting the debt, then maybe what he loses is only a part of his body, such as the facial features and limbs that are not so important to psykers.
But if she is in a state of hunger, let alone the contractor himself, under the bewitchment of the evil god's will, even the planet and the star field where the contractor is located will fall into a war with flesh and blood sacrifice as the main theme. of horrific riots.
Perhaps only by devouring all life in the galaxy can the World Eater be truly satisfied.
"The third evil god, her name is the Instrument of Desire. Signing a contract with her can make psykers seem to have good luck, and often get what they want without paying any price. In her 'healthy' mind With help, those who covet beauty will use this to win the beauty, and those who covet wealth will use this to obtain money and materials that ordinary people cannot imagine."
He did not say that sometimes behind Kang's generous gifts is the most extreme greed.
After becoming the plaything in the palm of the instrument of desire, the contractor will become more and more irritable and irritable because the gradually enlarged desire is not satisfied, and the desire is difficult to satisfy. Finally, he will be lost in his endless desire and be unable to extricate himself, becoming a moth on the material level. , reduced to a useless person on a spiritual level.
Of course, this is a best-case scenario. Unfortunately, unless the contractor still has value, the equipment he desires will never be available when the bill is collected. Not only will she take back all her investment in the contractor, but she will also take away everything the contractor has obtained through his own efforts.
"The fourth evil god, her name is Whisper of the Void. Signing a contract with her can make psykers become talented, have a sharp tongue, make rapid progress on the road of spiritual practice, and be able to dominate the crowd with their eloquence. For those who have obtained the true god For the contractors who help, no matter how difficult the experiments and research are, they can complete it, as if there is really an omniscient and omnipotent existence whispering in their ears."
He did not say that in this cold world, very few people would be selfless enough to teach others what they have learned throughout their lives, let alone the cunning evil god.
Endless knowledge will bring incomparable self-confidence, and even the most timid and cowardly people will become arrogant after tasting the sweetness of forbidden knowledge. But when the whispers stop and the mask breaks, the sarcasm and complaint mixed with the will of the evil god will make them become themselves again, the self-pitying and self-abasing selves they once were.
If she just collapsed and committed suicide after a brief emotional outburst, how could such low-level teasing satisfy her?
She wants her contractor to persist until the last moment and be reduced to a clown in front of countless supporters. Only in this way can more people hear the silent whisper and let all creatures on the planet live in the silence of the night. She is heading towards madness, towards the ending she has already decided.
Seeing that both Yang Tianyi and Yin Lisabai were deeply attracted by his vivid narration, Arete took a deep breath and told all the side effects that he had not mentioned. When he saw that their eyes were still clear, he knew that he had not wasted his time. tongue.
As a mentor in the virtual realm, his duty is to help the submersibles follow the right path, not to tell them to believe in evil gods. If there was even the slightest bit of greed in the eyes of the two of them just now, Arete would not hesitate to use spiritual power to crush their delusions about the evil god.
"Actually, there is a fifth god above the four gods, but there are very few records about her within the sect. Except for a few unsearchable unofficial histories, I know almost nothing about her. If you want to listen , I’ll just say it too.”
Looking at the two people in front of him who were still unfinished, Arete groaned and then slowly spoke.
"The fifth god of the virtual realm is named..."
"The end of reincarnation!"
