Chapter 789: Soul Guess
"This ...... It's delicious!" It took a long time for Phyllis's swallowing to slow down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Whenever other diners pass by, they are greeted with astonishment – the table is filled with boxes of all kinds, from burgers to egg tarts, enough for five or six people, but there are only three people seated at the table. For this reason, Roland also received a lot of disdainful looks, compared to the two slender and moving women opposite, the probability that these foods were stuffed into his stomach was obviously much higher.
"Rub her," Roland said helplessly, and at the same time a little glad in his heart, fortunately he brought her to a fast food restaurant instead of a high-end restaurant, otherwise this meal would have emptied his wallet.
Jero pulled out a wet towel and wiped the tears and oil from her lips - the witch was naturally beautiful and barely needed makeup, otherwise the tearful lunch would have smeared her face. And the little girl is probably the first time to see that there is such a miserable person, even eating Kaifeng vegetables will be so happy that she will cry, sympathy has been overflowing, and her attitude towards her has changed one hundred and eighty degrees.
"There's a cone here, but let's talk about the dream first," seeing that she had almost eaten, Roland took a sip of Coke and got to the point, "Did you notice anything strange or wrong before you fell asleep?"
"But......" she glanced at Jieluo beside her.
"It's okay, it's just a childhood dream," he blinked.
"I see," Phyllis immediately understood what he meant, "Indeed, it has been a long time...... If I think about it, there was nothing special at the time, I just leaned against the wall and cut off consciousness as usual, which helped me recover quickly without completely losing my vigilance. ”
"Even if you cut off your consciousness, you can sense changes in the outside world?"
She nodded, "I just stopped controlling my body and sank into darkness, but I can still sense the danger around me." It wasn't coming from sight or hearing, but an indescribable feeling, as if someone was reminding me. Selene calls this phenomenon a latent connection, and if it is drawn into a soul container, it is a complete long sleep without any consciousness. ”
"What are you talking about?" said Jero, "who is Selene?"
"A psychiatrist, don't interject when adults talk," Roland glanced at her, "If you're bored, go for a walk in the park and watch other people fish and fly kites, don't get too far away from us." ”
The little girl snorted dissatisfiedly, grabbed the cone and walked out of the store.
"It doesn't matter, right?" asked Phyllis, looking at her back through the floor-to-ceiling window.
"It's okay, the level of law and order is very high in this era, and ordinary people can't fool her," Roland shrugged, "You continued. ”
"Yes, once I'm in a deep sleep, I'm supposed to be floating in endless darkness. There is no light, no sound, nothing exists...... Nothing can be done either. The Old Witch paused, "But this time the scene has become your dwelling place in the dream world, and my surprise at the time is beyond words to describe, but fortunately I saw you soon." ”
"Well......," Roland pondered for a moment, "in other words, the only difference between this sleep and the usual one is that you are in my castle. ”
"That's the only difference. Phyllis swallowed the last cone and let out a sigh of satisfaction.
Seeing the yellow barrel tip disappear into the ancient witch's mouth little by little, a thought suddenly flashed in Roland's mind, "Pillar of light!"
"What?"
"Didn't you say that when I fell asleep, there would be a huge pillar of orange-yellow light as wide as a city wall?"
"That's right," Phyllis was slightly stunned, as if she realized something.
"And you also have a pillar of light, right?"
"What do you mean...... Our pillars of light overlapped?"
"That's right, the Lord's Castle in Frontier Town is just an ordinary stone building, and it is impossible for you to connect to the dream realm, and when you think about it, only the pillar of light is our common denominator. Roland slapped his palm suddenly, "But it can't just rely on the overlapping pillars of light, otherwise Anna and Nightingale should have entered the dream world a long time ago, and cutting off consciousness may be the key." ”
Of all the descriptions of the Tachira Witch, the word soul has always puzzled him.
Whether it's the shell of a divine punishment warrior or a strangely shaped creature carrier, the Tajira survivors control them by transferring their souls, but ...... What is Soul?
According to Roland's understanding, the soul is a synthesis of thought and memory, and the phenomenon generated by the interaction of neurons with each other through electrical currents is not something that actually exists, nor can it continue without the body. However, the soul core of the underground civilization breaks this notion, not only turning the soul into a substance that can exist out of thin air, but also carrying it around.
At first he attributed it in general terms to the wonder of magic, but now it seems that it may not be the same as he imagined - what if thoughts and memories could be parsed?
Assuming that the pillar of light and the magic all come from the Red Moon, then the so-called soul is also likely to be the same - the moment the soul core is activated, the person whose soul is extracted forms a complete memory in the Red Moon, and the pillar of light is just a transmission channel, thus creating the appearance of soul transfer.
According to Pasha, the transformation of mana was too complicated, so the gods took over the process, which was manifested in the thickness of the pillar of light. Regardless of whether the wheel is correct or not, if it is just a simulated memory, it is indeed much easier than the manifestation of magic and the creation of things out of thin air, so it can be said that the pillar of light above the head of the witch of divine punishment is so small.
Continuing along these lines, the complexity of the dream world exceeds the capabilities of most witches, and the pillar of light will be as thick as a city wall. When Phyllis interrupts consciousness within this range, her mind in the red moon communicates with the dream world, resulting in a vision connecting to the dream world.
The more Roland thought about it, the more excited he became, and the conclusions that he had been pondering and not coming to before could now find a plausible explanation from this hypothesis. If this is really due to the overlapping pillars of light, it means that the dream world is indeed a part of the Red Moon - with the help of Jieluo's soul battlefield, he has left a footprint of his own in this "divine domain" that controls magical power.
Just as he was about to tell Phyllis about to tell him about this speculation, there was an earth-shattering bang in the restaurant next door, and shards of window glass were scattered all over the floor. People fled from the store in panic, with a mixture of cries, screams and cries for help, as well as diners at Kaifeng Restaurant.
