Chapter 822: Vivien, who will split
Vivien rubbed her forehead a little tiredly, her mental state was not very good after absorbing two memories in a row that did not belong to her. Now memories from the "evil spirits" were filling the voids in her mind, and they made her understand what happened here and to herself 10,000 years ago: but they didn't answer all her questions.
"The exact cause and effect is still up for debate, but the memories I got from that 'doppelganger' began when she arrived on this planet 10,000 years ago," Vivien now calls the previous "evil spirit" a clone, which means that she has figured out the nature of the evil spirit phenomenon, "I saw her cross the chaos and light of the vast expanse of chaos and light, and suddenly descend on this planet, which was thrown from the dream plane into the cracks of the wall of reality. The place was shrouded in darkness, and the atmosphere was rapidly deathermating, so she managed to keep the ecosphere with all her strength - a vague process, but it should be corroborated by the myths of the locals. ”
Vivien sighed as she spoke, as if she were worried about something: "It's really difficult to explain this process, I don't even know whether to use the first person or the third person - it wasn't me or the doppelganger who first came to this planet, but a whole individual, but soon we split in two. I was thrown to Earth through the first Hellgate in history, and the 'other me' left on this planet became a goddess worshipped by the locals. She induced her eldest son to build the barrier you see for a hundred years, and led the people to build Dorasel and the Underground Capital - while I spent this time wandering the earth, hunting mammoths on the great plains of the end of the glacial age. My terrible brain...... After coming to Earth, he completely forgot about his division. ”
Hao Ren grabbed her hair and struggled to keep up with Vivien's description: "Do you know what caused you to split? ”
Vivien shook her head, "I don't know, but it may have been damaged while crossing the Wall of Reality." The only image I've seen that I can refer to is 'I' standing on the upper surface of the planet Purgatory. A huge vortex portal opened, and opposite the portal was a frozen river and plain. That's supposed to be Earth. One I go to the gate, and the other I stay in purgatory. I watched this scene from the first perspective, so it was like I seeing me leave this world, and then the first perspective of me, which is the doppelganger, stayed here, and then the rest of my perspective was the first person doppelganger me...... Eh, big dog, hold on, don't get dizzy, don't get dizzy! ”
Lily lay half-dead on the table, her ears drooped, and when she looked up, she was full of mosquito coils: "What's that...... Bats, you don't need to talk about the details of the year. I can't keep up with you when you switch names......"
The others also nodded their heads: "Well, we can't keep up either." ”
Vivien snorted and scratched her hair embarrassedly, "Okay, anyway, you just know what it means." I call the ones left on the planet of Purgatory 'clones', and although we are supposed to be two equal individuals, I am the only one who survives, so let's call it. ”
Hao Ren figured out this logical relationship in his heart, unearthed the entire timeline, and found that Vivien had split as soon as he arrived on the Purgatory Planet. She was then sent directly to Earth, and the slightest time difference between them was negligible, so the time she arrived on Earth from the dream plane could still be roughly set to forty-eight hours before the goddess's fall. After that, Vivien cut off contact with her other "half-body". Needless to say, this one was sent to Earth. She became the oldest anomaly on the planet, and the "half Vivien" who remained in purgatory became the goddess of local legends.
But what happened after that? Why did the "goddess" who remained on this planet degenerate into a crazy resentful spirit without reason?
"She replaced the soul of her eldest son with her own will to ensure the stability of the planet. But something went wrong in between, and she went crazy. Vivien frowned, "The firstborn on this planet didn't keep his senses. It's also one of those mad Guardians, and the twisted creatures we see on the Upper Ground are the ones the eldest son created in a rebellion. In order to suppress it, the 'other self' chose to assimilate itself to the firstborn, and subsequently controlled the firstborn to assimilate with the planet.
"I don't know what method she used, but she eliminated the soul of her eldest son and destroyed his brain nucleus, and after building this underground city, she connected herself to the main nerve node of her eldest son, and tried to control the creature for a long time through a common seal. The lullaby of the spirits and the thunderstone pillars of the city are safety devices on this basis. For 10,000 years, the system's perimeter insurance has worked as planned, but ......"
"The most critical core of the system went wrong first," Nangong Sanba wiped his forehead, "'The other you' was polluted by the remnants of the eldest son's spirit?" Or is it that the time of self-sealing is too long and the mind is out of control? ”
"It's all possible," Vivien nodded, "I can't see the 'clone' going crazy from my remaining memories, this part of the stuff is completely chaotic. What is certain is that the 'Other I' had anticipated the possibility of getting out of control when she chose to replace her firstborn's brain - the subterranean city, the lullaby ritual of the Ancients, and the sealing crystal and the chains and tentacles of the firstborn around it, all of which were actually cages, and she had built so many things that they could lock up when she went crazy one day. ”
"Did you expect it from the beginning...... Hao Ren pinched his chin and pondered, "If we don't come this time, how long can these insurances last?" ”
Vivien thought for a moment, "It could be thousands of years, maybe decades, there are too many uncertainties, and even some wavering on the part of Gragon and the other spirits could destroy the system. We can only be glad that the situation has not deteriorated - even if it does last for another thousand years, we can't leave it to chance. ”
Hao Ren suddenly thought of a very critical question: "Wait a minute, then now that you have re-'fused' with that clone, who is controlling this planet now?" ”
"No one is in control," Vivien pursed her lips, "the soul and mind organs of the eldest son are gone, and the 'other self' that served as a temporary brain for the past 10,000 years has also disappeared, and now the eldest son on this planet is a true brainless state, not dead, but not alive either." That's why I asked Gragon to maintain the 'lullaby' ritual. The lullaby not only soothes the firstborn, but also maintains the activity of its nervous system, preventing the tentacles that support the earth's crust from suddenly shuddering and tearing the entire planet apart. But I don't think it will last long, those ancient spirits have been working for this for 10,000 years, and I can't bear to let them go on like this forever. ”
Vivien said, her gaze fell fixedly on Hao Ren, and before she could speak, Hao Ren knew that she had to find a way to solve this matter by herself. He pulled the data terminal over: "Have you analyzed what kind of system this 'lullaby' is?" ”
A holographic projection from the data terminal shows a number of pintower-like devices towering over the ground: "It should be possible to replace its hardware with a series of large electrodes and perpetual generators, but it will need to decode a set of 'software' from those ancient rituals." This machine requires the original blueprint of the city and all the information on the 'lullaby' technique, with or without annotations. ”
Vivien immediately said, "Gragon has it. ”
"Okay, this problem is solved," Hao Ren patted his face, "we will build a large computer-controlled electric stunner in Dorasel to free the ancient spirits from the ritual. ”
Then he looked at Vivien, "Then let's talk about you...... Well, the question of division. Since the first 'demon' was split by you, the one we summoned from the magic book last time...... Is it possible? ”
Vivien couldn't help but laugh: "Probably." ”
Lily craned her neck: "Then can you control your split?" Could it be that you are usually cooking at home and suddenly 'Bo'er' suddenly splits into two people, and then one of them starts to hunt us down all over the world? ”
Vivien: "I think ...... Probably, perhaps, should, probably...... Not really, right? ”
Lily's face turned green on the spot: "Don't you say it's so uncertain, okay?!" (To be continued......)
