I summoned Silence, pretended to be an electronic demon user, and had it carry me and jump on the rooftop. Not long ago, some people escaped from the buildings that seemed to be in the background, adding a little to the nightmare of Las Vegas, but they seemed to have encountered something terrible, and the panic added a haze and horror to the gloomy city. If Nightmare Las Vegas is a city, then these people's nightmares are like buildings in the city, and Marceau's watch shop gave me the idea that perhaps the nightmares of the users of the electronic demons will overlap here, rather than just a danger to their own safety.

From this nightmare Las Vegas, you can enter the ghost nightmare of others, and this behavior is like a consciousness walker. Of course, Marceau's actions also made me realize that the comings and goings of this nightmare need to be subject to quite strict requirements, and they are as free as those who do not walk consciously. Even so, being able to move in the world of consciousness and matter at the same time already shows the unique mystery of the electronic demon.

About a hundred and fifty meters from Marceau's watch shop, I finally found the tracks. Five people stood on the street, looking at the huge electronic billboard in amazement, some of them were men and women, young and middle-aged, and from the position of each of them there was a little estrangement, but they were not separated. Judging by their expressions, they were full of doubts about the nightmare Las Vegas they were in. Perhaps, it is precisely because of doubts that they will get together in a vigilant situation.

Of course, I think they know each other that they are the wielders of the Electro Demon. However, for some reason, none of them showed their electro-demons.

My approach immediately caught their attention, and I didn't rush in. In order to avoid direct conflict, but let Wuyin hold me and land on the street lamp that was more than ten meters away from them. These people looked wary and hostile, as if they had learned a lesson, so they did not have a good opinion of any stranger.

"Do you want to exchange information?" I asked bluntly.

"What do you want to know?" A middle-aged man said.

"Do you know where you are?" I asked rhetorically.

"Las Vegas." One young man said, "Is this really in Las Vegas?" ”

Apparently. The strangeness of the scenery had already made them question, but if they had lived in Las Vegas, they would have remembered more from the buildings around them.

"This is the nightmare, the Las Vegas of the nightmare." I replied.

Some of the five were stunned, but others were thoughtful. "It's ridiculous." A young woman frowned, "Are you saying that all of us are having the same nightmare?" ”

"You can see this as a shared nightmare, like a square-like place, as long as you go the right route. You can get there. I made a simple description, and without waiting for them to ask any more questions, I said, "Well, it's up to you to answer my question." Do you know the electronic demon summoning system? ”

"Of course I do. Isn't that obvious? One young man said in an irritated tone, "I know what you're trying to ask, the people we've met so far have all used that damn electronic demon summoner!" We must have been punished like this because we summoned demons! When he said "punishment", everyone else had solemn and worried expressions. Don't refute his words at all. It made me even more certain that they must have gone through their own ghost nightmares. In fact, in the nightmare, he endured a dangerous situation that even the electronic demon could not guarantee safety. I know very well what ghost nightmares are all about, and they are a bit tricky for a mysterious expert like me, let alone ordinary people who are new to the mysteries.

In a world where science is prevalent, the occult has never been broken. When you encounter a situation that you can't explain or understand, it's always easier to face it with a occult attitude than with a scientific attitude. I think these people must have gotten the Electro Demon after they've gotten it. I tried to understand some knowledge of the occult, and in the occult, the word "nightmare" is not just a scientific scientific worry about the day and a dream at night.

The "nightmare" in the occult is always accompanied by "bad luck", it is a harbinger of a crisis, and it is often a crisis of involuntarily. The young man in the past said that "it is because of the summoning of demons that he will be punished", which can indeed be seen as an understanding of the electronic demon summoning system. It may not be entirely true, but it certainly can't. Marceau's case, as well as my experience, is enough to prove this, otherwise why use the word "demon"? Just summoning a mysterious being that can help you, then, it could have been called "Elf Summoning System", "Electronic Pet" or something like that. But it is a "demon", even if it is prefixed with the word "electronic", there is a sense of modern trend. However, the word "demon" has never had a positive connotation, either in the concept of normal people, nor in occultism, nor even in religious studies.

I think anyone who has experienced a ghost nightmare will inevitably associate the word "price".

The order in which I entered Ghost Nightmare and Nightmare Las Vegas was a bit abnormal, and in Marceau's case as an example, it was perhaps more popular. I thought about it for a moment and recounted my understanding of Electro Demon, Ghost Nightmare, and Nightmare Las Vegas.

"Is it okay to think that the ghost nightmare is actually the passage to Las Vegas, this nightmare?" Another middle-aged woman asked, she was the most calm of the group, "There are already many people who know about the electronic demon summoning program, and there are far more users than we have encountered, but this nightmare Las Vegas is so empty." ”

"Maybe they can't find their way - didn't the little brother say it? Nightmare Las Vegas is like a plaza, so while you can get here from the Ghost Nightmare, you'll need to find the right way. The middle-aged man muttered: "It's better for everyone to talk about their ghost nightmares, maybe we can find more specific clues." ”

These people quickly accepted the concepts of "ghost nightmare" and "nightmare Las Vegas", which I had compiled on my own, and were able to understand what the "ghost" was, which is enough to prove that the ghost may not be consistent in its morphology. It is possible that the other people encountered the same slender ghost that I encountered, but the existence of the "ghost" itself is not a special case. This diversity is a "mysterious" characteristic, and under this premise, it is not surprising that Marceau's ghost is also Marceau's appearance, and even has the ability to communicate with people.

The five people here have different temperaments. But they all showed enough rationality to explain their ghost nightmares separately. I also got involved, and after asking a few questions, I quickly noticed that a ghost nightmare is likely to have a pattern - when the ghost first appears, it is not in the nightmare, but in the "real world" of this repeater world, and then the ghost enters the nightmare, or rather. From this time on, nightmares will occur. In the first nightmare, the dream itself and the activity in the dream are very realistic, making it difficult to realize that you are in a dream at the first time, and the ghost will always approach in a strange way - you can only feel its approach, like an omen, but the ghost itself will not reflect the body, at this time. Although it is scary, it does not seem to be too dangerous. At least, none of these five people encountered real danger, but the fear brought by the weirdness was also extremely strong when they could not recognize the dream.

Afterwards. As the number of nightmares increases, the less you can stay "awake" in the nightmares, the more people realize that they are in the "nightmare", but also at this time. The ghost begins to show substantial aggression, leaving the nightmare sufferer often in a near-death fear. As for the consequences of being killed in the nightmare, the people here are not very clear, because they entered the nightmare Las Vegas during their final struggle.

Although there are also people who say that "when the nightmare is the most terrifying, you will enter the nightmare Las Vegas, so you will not actually experience death in the ghost nightmare", but this is just thinking in a good direction, and once you try to think in a slightly bad direction, even if you don't have an answer, it will make people shudder.

When encountering ghosts, the closest thing to death, or rather, to make these five people sure, there must be a life-threatening situation, is when the ghost first appears, because, at that time, the pressure brought by the ghost affects the real self. If you die in a nightmare, you may wake up from a nightmare, but if you die in the consciousness of many people, in what they understand as "reality", then you are really dead.

When I experienced the ghost nightmare, I also followed this law, and when I entered the ghost nightmare before, I could indeed feel a stronger sense of dream than before, and at the same time, the ghost launched an extremely dangerous offensive. With the experience of the current five people, I have to think that maybe my ghost nightmare is not so special, although I arrived in Nightmare Las Vegas first, but it seems that all the people who have obtained the electronic demon at different times will encounter a strong invasion from the ghost at the same time on this day, and the user will also find a way into Nightmare Las Vegas at this time.

Although, the other people who are now entering Nightmare Las Vegas are one line later than me in time, but this time is not enough to draw a clear line of priority. It's like this repeater world has finally turned on the long-prepared switch on this night, presenting Nightmare Las Vegas in front of all the electronic demon users, but only some people can pass through the level guarded by the ghost. As for what exactly this level is, whether it is to save one's life in a ghost nightmare, or in this life and death experience, it explodes under enough fear and pressure, but it is not something that can be explored at once.

In any case, those who have experienced the ghost nightmare and arrived in Nightmare Las Vegas will be sure of the horror of the ghost and will linger on the fear of life and death. During the conversation, all five said that until now, they still have not been able to calm down, and they do not want to think about whether they will go through the same test again in reality.

Now this nightmare Las Vegas finally has a little bit of life, although, in the scenery, it is more hazy than ever, and one can faintly feel some kind of malice lurking in the darkness. This nightmare Las Vegas is not safe, and it doesn't need any visible danger to prove it, as long as you are in it, the instinct to face the danger is constantly ringing, and it makes people unconsciously tense their nerves. These five electronic demon users are also under this kind of pressure, which cannot be seen, but can be felt. to choose collective action. Until then, they didn't know each other, and could only guess that each other was a user of an electronic demon, and this mysterious power often made people involuntarily wary of their own kind.

Even in the "real" Las Vegas. Where the electronic demon summoning system spreads, for the time being, no one has thought of uniting to deal with the crisis that may come. The collective is no stranger to anyone, and it is also an advantage that everyone must acknowledge, but the characteristics of the mystery itself greatly weaken the advantage of the collective, just like every mysterious expert, even if he is alone. I won't be too afraid of NOG, my own mystery, enough to minimize the advantage of numbers, especially consciousness walkers, and rarely gather to walk.

To constitute a mysterious organization, the most crucial point is not who is more violent, but in. Whether there is an idea that is accepted by everyone. Whether it's Cyberball, Black Live, or even mysterious organizations such as the Torchlight and the Mercenary Guild. and the Doomsday Shinrikyo and the Whisperers, who do not rely on profit and violence to integrate their organizations, but rather on ideas, ideals, and ways of doing things that are recognized by each member.

Although the current Las Vegas has gone far in the mysterious diffusion and has given birth to many electronic demon users, in this short period of time. The fact that there is still no strong idea on the table also means that even if there is a mysterious organization, it is still in the reserve stage, and it is not easy to find like-minded people. More people want to implement their own ideas, rather than implement ideas that they do not approve of, or they just don't want other people's ideas to interfere with their actions. Because there are many such people, after a long enough time and a lot of wind and rain, a loose organization similar to a black nest will also be formed. The core of the Black Nest, which is famous in the apocalyptic fantasy, is "not to ask for more from others, so to refuse others to ask for more from themselves." "It was originally formed as a loose intelligence organization of the communication type that had to be formed because of scattered individuals, dissatisfied with the strength of the NOG and the Doomsday Shinrikyo to put their ideas into action. Later, under the further integration of Father Sissen, it had the idea of more uniting people and developed towards a more formal occult organization.

In that apocalyptic illusion, I finally intercepted half of the results of the Mar Jones family's Tianmen project in the Black Nest, obtained my own "Holy Land", and was killed by the final weapon of the Doomsday Shinrikyo Sect, so until the end, I never knew if the Black Hive persevered until the end of the world when the end came. And this time, in the apocalyptic illusion, Father Sissen once again formed the Black Nest, but it was in the form of a formal mysterious organization and was included in the NOG. If we take the development of the apocalyptic fantasy in the past as a reference, it is possible that at some point in the future, when Netball becomes the supreme spokesperson of NOG, the Black Live will once again break away from NOG and become an independent large mysterious organization comparable to NOG.

However, I think that this time the apocalyptic process of Doomsday Fantasy is so drastic, it seems to be desperately accelerating for a certain purpose, so it is still a question whether the Black Nest can finally be the same as in the past Doomsday Fantasy.

As for the fact that in this repeater world, the Nazis are the apex of the native power, the Doomsday Shinrikyo has been infiltrated for a long time, the NOG has also entered, and the Whisperers have been established, and whether the Black Nest will start from the change in Las Vegas and build it again, this question is also quite interesting. Because, if the black nest appears before the end of the world completely comes, it is enough to prove that there is a certain mapping relationship between the evolution of this repeater world and the outside world, and it is also proved once again that the birth of the repeater is the "script" of the doomsday fantasy.

And the writer of this script, on the surface, seems to be a "hospital", but behind the scenes, it reflects many people and non-human ideas, including the color center, Dorothy, and perhaps the spy organization lurking in the "hospital", "Jiang" and "virus". These ideas are intertwined, and the direction in which they are going seems to be full of possibilities for every participant, but, in my opinion, it must be the general direction, which is macro-regulated by the "virus".

Because, even the color system center that has the ability to interfere with the operation of the doomsday illusion is essentially just a doomsday syndrome patient. Until the erosion of the "virus" is completely eliminated, it is unlikely that the action of color-binding will be completely unaffected by the "virus". At least, the situation so far has made me feel that the "virus" has the upper hand, and the various "deteriorations" presented in the mysterious form in the apocalyptic illusion are the best proof of this.

From the overall perspective of the apocalyptic vision, the changes in Las Vegas seem to meet the needs of the Nazis, or the means of the Doomsday Shinrikyo, NOG or some scattered and latent occult experts, but in essence, the mystification and apocalyptic process caused by it is undoubtedly the embodiment of "deterioration", and can still be regarded as the work of the "virus".

I don't know what the "Jiang" is doing, I have never seen its body, I can only feel that it does exist here, in my mind and body, so there is no way to observe its actions unless I take my own experience as evidence. Even so, I'm still sure that "Jiang" didn't fall behind in this game.

Perhaps, as I thought, "Jiang" and "Virus" are two sides of the same coin, and the growth of "Virus" is also the growth of "Jiang", and the final battlefield may not be reflected in the way of an intuitive battle between the two sides, but in the overall changes of the apocalyptic illusion, which belongs to the battle of instinct and consciousness. In my hypothesis, the "virus" acts according to instinct, although from the changes in the apocalyptic illusion, a kind of wisdom is vaguely reflected, but in fact, it is still an instinct-led deterioration process, only "Jiang" really represents a consciousness, and this consciousness, I believe more, is based on the consciousness of Zhenjiang, who has already died in the "hospital reality", and if I take 10,000 steps back, even if the "hospital reality" is still not the most real reality, the real Jiang in the "hospital reality" is not the real existence, but the "hospital reality" Even if this kind of unsatisfactory situation will prove that I have never really been "sober", I am willing to believe that this qiē is the real "Jiang", which is the embodiment of the consciousness of the "virus".

I would like to believe that, even if it is only a manifestation of immature consciousness, the "river" exists, and is not a falsity created by the instinct of the "virus" - just like the bait in biology and the occult that has evolved over the years by the hunter's instinct to facilitate hunting.

Yes, I have to believe in the truth of "Jiang". If I'm wrong, then there will be nothing but despair, no, it should be said, it's the end of the world where there will be no residue of despair. To me, to Sakuya, to all the people with doomsday syndrome, and even to the end of the world. Because, that means, the "virus" is the real invincible, and the fate of the infected is doomed from the beginning.

In my communication with the five electronic demon users, I learned more about the situation that was concealed by John Bull, the mysterious spread of Las Vegas is not optimistic about the local security, and the government has also vaguely begun to act, after all, the impact of this intensity of mysterious diffusion is absolutely impossible to make the mystery truly hidden. However, it is precisely because of the abnormal atmosphere created by the actions of various forces that the undercurrent of Las Vegas does not immediately appear on the table. People who have obtained mysteries often have a strong advantage in intuition, and users of electronic demons will also have a relatively keen sense of smell for any situation that poses a threat to them. Therefore, it is also guided that electronic demon users will hide themselves in various ways, among which not dealing with other electronic demon users is one of the choices.

"A lot of people have left Las Vegas." The middle-aged woman said, "Actually, I've already left, and I'm on the boat now, but I didn't expect to leave Las Vegas, and then go back to Las Vegas in such a way, it's a real nightmare." (To be continued......)
