The prisoner and the sea

Chapter 224 There Are No Believers

The steam brass puppet was quietly parked on a mechanical platform.

The water mist is like some kind of paint and repair solvent, and it makes a rustling sound on the brass puppet, and some rust spots visible to the naked eye are recovering.

The woman who lived here spread her hands: "Utopian, your arrival was an accident, but since you are here, I think I should give you a reward..."

Commendation...

Hearing such words similar to those of the final boss, Gwen couldn't hold back a little. He lowered his left hand slightly, and raised the palm of his right hand to point at the woman.

Although there is a premonition of "fighting with the other party, maybe the fellow countryman will be destroyed", even utopia.

But if Gwen is to die generously, it can't be done.

If he had to die, he would rather die on the road of resistance.

This kind of belief radiated through his source power, making the black-haired woman's eyes suddenly brighten: "...don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, it's not a 'reward' that will kill you, um, it's this, look over here Look this way."

She took out a small silver pen with the length of her index finger from the pocket of an elegant coat that looked like a robe.

"Now look this way..."

She took something out of her pocket again, this time a pair of black sunglasses.

"Who saw it? I've seen the man in black."

Gwen said bluntly.

The black-haired girl who was exposed had no abnormal expression at all, she was still smiling, but she took the props back.

"You shouldn't have come here. Travelers who came to Utopia. Our chessboard does not have your position or role. This dangerous chess game has nothing to do with you..." The black-haired girl miraculously took out blue and red from her pocket. Two crystal-clear pills came out, "... take the blue pill, you will fall into a drowsy sleep, and the next day you won't remember anything, I will send you back to the old countryman, and save your time Call back to eight o'clock this morning."

Gwen walked over.

"And the red pill, you're going to see the frightening truth. Many Utopians tried it, and at the time they all went mad and became part of the unspeakable horror that is the Immortals."

Become an immortal?There is such a good thing.

He reached out to take the red pill.

"Your current strength is not enough to cross classes and become an immortal. I have to tell you the risk. If you are unlucky and crazy, it has nothing to do with me, but if you call and report me someday in the future, I will be very embarrassed... So I need to make this clear to you. Taking the red pill and seeing the truth doesn't bring you much, at least not in our opinion, but you run the risk of going crazy."

Gwen paused, and looked at the woman who should be a witch.

"But there's one more thing you didn't tell me, did you?"

The woman pursed her lips.

"You didn't say what would happen if I didn't choose the blue and red pills."

The corners of her lips curled up without saying a word, showing her white teeth, and a smile that Gwen didn't believe 'humans could make'.

If you don't eat red and blue, you will end up unpredictable.

In other words, Gwen is facing an ending that must be chosen between the two.

If it is for safety, choosing blue is the best.

Gwen picked up the red pill from the opponent's palm with her fingers.

"Crazy?" the brunette reminded.

Gwen took a deep look at her:
"I don't know your name yet."

"Do you want to write down my name to retaliate or target later? Hahaha..." The black-haired woman smiled slightly, "...short-lived species are really interesting, but those of us who live like short-lived species can't That's enough to put it this way... eat it quickly, I feel that she is coming back, this is not a good opportunity..."

"your name?"

Gwen looked directly at her, hoping to remember that face.

"Will I be so stupid if I don't tell you? Give you a name so that you can find me and take revenge on me in the future? Hahahaha, it seems that the organization in the association must also be changed..."

The witch was lost in thought.

Gwen sighed, unable to get the name, and the face in front of him might not be real?In other words, even if it is real, it is unlikely that he will be able to find this witch again in Utopia.She couldn't believe whether what she said was true or not, but it was obvious that she was powerless to resist.

But come to think of it, the other party probably wouldn't joke about things like life and death...

should?

Gwen ruthlessly swallowed the pill in one gulp.

Everything in front of him suddenly became blurred, and the sky was spinning, a terrifying floating animal, twisted shapeless creatures coiled around, the devil's deep laughter was amplified dozens of times, it seemed that something was conceiving in his body— —

"Meow!"

With a familiar meow, the cat Valo jumped out of the shadow.

Then, Gwen fell into a state of amnesia, and his thinking began to fall into a kind of stagnation. The last two thoughts:
"Goofy witch, is she really tricky?"

as well as……

"Good cat."

In a daze, I saw that the cat Varo seemed to be entangled with that witch.

One person and one cat seem to be talking about something.

Then a consensus was reached.

The witch got down from the chair, took out a strange short staff and held it in her hand. It was about the length of an arm, and the red wood in the middle was wrapped in a hollow protective layer made of gold and silver bars.

Like a magic wand.

thought Gwen.

The witch flicked her short staff lightly towards this side, and seemed to be chanting something in her mouth.

A wave of fiery red lava appeared out of thin air, engulfing Gwen in it.

The fire is spreading.

Gwen's thoughts suddenly became chaotic.His body seemed to be burning hot, but his consciousness was extremely clear. In an instant, he saw the universe, heaven and hell, and an extremely huge cat ball floating in the boundless starry sky.

It was a 'star cat lamp', she was 'drifting', looking for a suitable 'split point'.

In an instant, three strange phrases that were neither utopian nor Chinese or English that Gwen was familiar with appeared.These three unfamiliar words appear so abruptly, yet so just right.

It's like learning something in a dream.

It's as if in a dream, facing something and imagining "I know what this is", and then naturally say their names, but then clearly realize that it is impossible for me to remember after returning to reality.

It was as if the moment I got up early, I thought of 'I can teleport to school', but I didn't believe it for any reason, and I closed my eyes and continued to sleep.

It is this feeling.

Unreasonable belief and self-confidence.

The lava seemed to be poured into his body, into his brain, but it didn't burn violently, as if the water from a hot spring was kissing his cheek.

Something appeared in sight.

It is a chessboard with cards on it.

and a constantly running train.

Dozens of figures whose faces could not be clearly seen stood around the huge chessboard.

At this time.

Gwen saw one clearly, a small figure, probably a female figure wearing a delicate Bonnet soft hat, looked at her.

Her face was covered in endless flames and flowing gold.

However, a pair of violet eyes are clearly visible.

she says:

"Ah, a new awakener."

There was a pause, accompanied by some kind of laughter:

"Still sane? Poor."

"..."

"..."

Thousands, tens of thousands, billions of phrases, words, runes, and incantations violently formed that piece of lava that swallowed the stunned Gwen!
piping hot!

pain!

The burned body made a sizzle-like frying sound.An invisible blister boils from the throat to the stomach, spreading from the surface of the skin to the inside.Constantly bursting and growing, scalding water covered the whole body.Under the extreme pain, Gwen was surprised to find that she had regained control of her body.

He raised his left hand and glanced.

It was an unidentifiable, melting chocolate.

Knowledge and memory, and a thousand formless phrases take the place of thinking.

"I'm melting."

……

Warm and plush.

Gwen opened her eyes and found herself lying on a unique orange plush blanket in a vacant room in the Explorers' Association.Is your body in good condition...

"Meow, you are the best quality of the people who came this time."

Cat Varo's voice came from the side, and Gwen turned her head and saw the fat cat was putting away some kind of blood-stained...or a strangely flaming bandage.

After playing tricks, this living fat cat untied a small silver bottle from its waist (does it have a waist?), unscrewed the cap, gulped a big gulp, and then poured out the suspected space storage item. tied back.

"You owe the cat once, Gwen, and when the cat wants to return this favor someday in the future, you can't refuse, meow ow ow!"

The fat cat emphasized.If a human being does this, it may feel a little bit of repayment, but this kind of furry...

Gwen supported her body with her hands, feeling the burning sensation in her body.

"Meow!"

Thick cat paws stretched out, helped Gwen up, and made him look at the room again. The interior was low-key and luxurious, like a bedroom, but there was no bed, and there was a fireplace, with fifty to fifty towers of fire stacked in front of it. cat lamp.

"Where is this?" Gwen felt an obvious burning sensation in his head, like the feeling of being surrounded by furry things with a cat lamp on his head.

"The cat breeding room of the Explorers Association, this association has a lot of connections with the giant cats, and the funder also has a lot of connections with the cat lights, so the giant cats will provide them with the most basic security services, and at the same time, meow, oh, they It is also necessary to provide accommodation and a card room for the giant cats, what you see is the card room for the cats."

"Chess Room……"

Gwen looked up, and indeed saw the nest of cat lights hanging from the ceiling, and the marked witch card was placed in the nest.

There is also a card holder and a huge oil painting directly opposite the fireplace.

The content of the oil painting is a lifelike beautiful woman standing in the snow, with a soft expression, a confident and calm expression, light blue hair and light blue eyes, wearing a retro long-sleeved waist three-piece dress, a cape soft hat, shoulders There is a very high-value snow fluffy fur ball cat lamp, and this cat is holding a deck of cards in its paws.The painting skills are quite superb, through the picture, Gwen seems to hear the atmosphere surrounded by cheers and chills.

Seeing his gaze, Carlo the cat shook his head: "This is Lelebe, cats prefer to call her surname Dodolia, she was the champion of the Witch Card Multiverse Invitational Tournament in 2001, a card playing conference held in the witch's land , Meow, what a grand occasion!"

It's the First Year Champion of The Witch (Cat Lantern Version)!
To be reasonable, Mao Deng really has to be for this person to play cards.

Gwen exhaled slowly.

boom.

The fluff of Cat Varro's belly was on fire.

The cat Varo blinked and glanced down, making sure that the cat on fire was himself.

"Meow ow ow!"

I used the cat's paw to slap it randomly on the spot, and it was finally wiped out.

"Gwen, you can't exhale now!"

she yelled.

At the same time, he took out a mirror from the cat's tail and gave it to Gwen: "You have been marked, meow, I don't know who the 'truth' you saw is, she gave you an ancient mark, ancient, meow, in Marks that seem extremely ancient to you. This stuff triggers your recessive genes, meow ow."

"I……"

Gwen felt that his mind was still a little confused, and the chaotic knowledge was accumulated in his heart, so that when he glanced at the cat Varo, a hundred ways to lick the cat light, and a thousand ways to praise the cat as "so fat" appeared in his mind statement phrases.This part of knowledge and memory is completely unfamiliar, as if it was forcibly instilled by something.

looked in the mirror.

Something was sticking out of his head.

A pair of... curved horns!It has a fiery red magma-like texture.

Boom!
Gwen looked behind him, a thick tail covered with fiery red scales was sweeping the floor... no, it was sweeping back and forth, and as his mentality became a little bit tense, the tail dragged the blanket on the ground and swung it back and forth.

At the same time, the hair color also changed. Originally, Gwen's hair color was completely black, but now it looks a little lava red, and there is even a little lava light shining in the dark places.

"I?"

As the sense of weirdness faded, Gwen found that his strength was much stronger than before. After incarnating into his current form, his physical fitness suddenly rose to a terrifying level.

"Giant dragon transformation, meow, is your lord a dragon witch?"

Varo the cat poked Gwen's dragon's tail with his cat's tail.

"The Lord is..."

Gwen's eyes flickered, and the world came to a standstill.

Time and space have stagnated, and Gwen's body has also stagnated.

The knowledge contained in his body surged, violently pouring information into his brain.

...The Witch Lord is an extremely powerful creature. They usually have a vast territory that can raise millions or even tens of millions of witches, and they have several stars of different sizes.After capturing and researching many false gods, they possessed a set of magical belief devices, using 'magic factor' instead of 'human source' to believe in and get feedback.This method, which is similar to robot faith, allows users to donate their own magic power as part of the [Magic Power Network], and at the same time, obtain the simple first version of the magic power model returned by the Lord.

...And this powerful witch who is believed in is honored as the 'Witch Lord'.

At the same time, Gwen also understood that the witch who established contact with him used a method that was regarded as 'illegal' among witches to sign herself.

This method made him a [non-existent believer].

And the powerful power of this giant dragon is a compensation.

Gwen can perceive that at this moment, there is another possibility:
[Reject this compensation]

In this way, he can be separated from this 【Witch Lord】.

but……

This might just be the witch's hypocrisy.

After experiencing such a terrifying power in the body, how could he be willing to go back to the past?

Gwen decided to embrace being strong.

The bargaining chip given by the Witch Lord is much better than that of the Eternal Living. There is no need to pay for faith, no need to agree with the idea, just need to let one's magic factor "believe" in a specific way, and... a heavy favor.

These lords have tens of thousands of potential people who need attention, but even the occasional care must be remembered for Gwen in his infancy.

Especially at……

Gwen looked at Varo the cat.

"The giant cats have a little connection with the Witch Lord, because the Witch Lord can not only set the magic factor belief, but also set the earth vein energy belief. The giant cats often take the rich earth vein energy and upload it to the Witch Lord. It also helps Lords pay attention to 'favor consumption' in order to obtain resources."

In other words, the witch's belief system is actually the 'Internet computing power system'.
