Chapter 1166: When You Wake Up (III.)

Thinking so, Roland told Higgs's last words to Holmens, and then took out the fragment of the bell to show him: "This is the relic that Higgs entrusted me to give you before he died. ”

Holmens seemed to sense something, and said eagerly, "Open the jar and put those pieces in!" ”

Grofa stepped forward to unscrew the lid of the crystal jar, and Roland gently placed the fragment of the bell into the jar filled with an unknown liquid.

The brain tissue suspended in the jar glowed, and through the magic crystal chip inserted in the flesh and blood, it showed some kind of ability, resonated with the fragments of the bell, and absorbed the memories left by Higgs, and the part of the personality that had been split off gradually revived......

After a few seconds, Holmens let out a sigh.

"It turns out that I am the one who lives in a dream and deceives myself...... Thank you for bringing back this news for me, absorbing the memories of Higgs, and finally solving the mysteries that have plagued me for years. ”

"Master, what the hell is Higgs up to?" Holmens woke up, but Roland still had a problem that he couldn't figure out.

"As Higgs himself claimed, he is the embodiment of the rational personality, and his actions are guided by reason, ensuring his own survival first, and only then thinking about the lives and deaths of others."

Holmonx rediscovers himself in a gloomy narrative – "recognizing oneself" is easy to say, but it is the most difficult thing in the world.

"Higgs believes that the evil gods are invincible, and the fate of the evil gods being dragged into Akron cannot be disobeyed, and under the above premise, the best situation is to maintain a relatively balanced state in Akron: the sober are protected by the lamp of reason, have shelter to shelter, at least maintain a normal life for a while before going berserk, and can even have a sweet love and have children like Hendrik and Anna; On the other hand, Higgs believes that the sober will inevitably degenerate into fanatics after all, so he wants to follow the evil god and gather the whole city of fanatics under his banner, so that Akron will become a battlefield between the sober and the fanatics, and this is exactly the situation that the evil gods like. ”

But what's the point? Higgs and his followers are still accomplices of the evil gods, and they are still persecuting the 'sober'! Lyudmila questioned loudly.

"Imagine if it weren't for Higgs's rational restraint of the fanatic sect and the maintenance of the fragile balance in the city, the outcome would have been worse than it is now." Holmonx sighed.

"Indeed, without the restraint of Higgs, the 'sobers' would probably have been slaughtered by the fanatics long ago, but haven't you also been bringing in reinforcements from the outside world by spreading the Tale of Two Dreams?" Grofa tried to think about this from another angle, "Isn't it better than the balance that Higgs pursued, at least until they degenerated into fanatics, and improved the weakness of the 'Lucid Ones' vis-Γ -vis the Fanatic Sect, and our arrival changed the situation in the city completely, helping the Lucid to destroy Higgs and his fanatic sect, which was no better than the equilibrium that Higgs was striving for, in fact, the endless killing of the two factions?" ”

"In the balanced state of Akron, although the sober and the fanatics kill each other, at least the city itself still exists, and the people still have hope of survival, and when Higgs dies, the madman sect is destroyed, and the rational forces in the city completely overwhelm madness, the evil god born from the origin of chaos and madness...... It's time to clean up the mess yourself. Holmonx replied bitterly.

Roland's heart sank, "The evil god wants to enter his dream?" ”

"On the contrary, he is waking up." Holmonx's tone sounded like a eulogy, "When Higgs and his high-ranking fanatics are all killed, and Akron's last bell inscribed with the insignia of the evil god ceases to sound, the Nightmare City falls silent, and the evil god will be awakened by the silence." ”

"Make no mistake, how could anyone be awakened by the silence? Silence makes it easier to fall asleep! Holden couldn't help but interject.

"It is true that normal people always fall asleep in silence and are awakened by noises, but the evil god who created Akron is the opposite of a normal creature, and the bell ringing of his followers sleeps him, and the silence wakes him up, but in another thing the evil god is no different from ordinary people: to wake up means to get out of the dream, and when the dreamer fully wakes up, the dream he created ceases to exist...... In this sense, Higgs is telling you the truthβ€”he and the bell-wearing fanatics are indeed the guardians of Akron, even though they are also responsible for all of Akron's calamities. ”

Holmonx's esoteric words are too much to understand, but when the eyes of the crowd look out the window and see the black tide that is engulfing all of Akron and turning the city into nothingness, it is not difficult to understand what it means for the evil god to awaken.

Once the evil god awakens, his dream will cease to exist, and the dream of Akron will quickly collapse, and the people of the city will die in this broken dream if they do not flee quickly.

The black substance they see at this moment does not belong to any substance, but the void itself.

"Children, there is no point in thinking about these things now, hurry up to me, and send you back to the original world while I still have some strength."

Hearing Holmens' call, Roland's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked him, "Master, what means do you want to use to send us away?" ”

"'Otherworldly Teleportation' can make outsiders leave Akron, I can teleport up to eight people, you six outsiders, plus Maria, while it's still too late, let's go!" Holmens urged.

"Master, you come with us, and Jessica, you can't leave them alone."

"Outsiders can go, but evil gods like me can't, and there are people who have tried to escape from Akron, and they will soon be dragged back in their sleep, and they will be punished by the evil gods and become maggots in the gutter......" Holmonx didn't continue, but Roland could feel the bitterness in his heart.

"Akron is collapsing, whether outsiders or sober people, staying here is doomed to a dead end, there is still a glimmer of hope to change the fate of escaping outside, after all, Akron will no longer exist after today, even if it is dragged back to the dream by the evil god, that dream may not be Akron, maybe the environment will be better." Gorofa also joined in the persuasion, and at the same time quietly asked Roland with a "telepathic connection", "Except for Master Holmonks, you are the only one here who can perform the 5-ring magic 'Otherworldly Teleportation', and I also have two teleportation scrolls here, how many people can I take away in total?" ”
