Chapter 17 Buzhou Mountain

Along with the rising feeling, Yao Yan seemed to feel an extremely grand thing.

Vast, boundless, as if the whole world was shrouded.

However, inexplicably, Yao Yan could feel that this huge thing was more like a machine, constantly running in a messy and chaotic direction.

No, to be more precise, it should be regular, but he could not grasp this law, and he did not have enough ability to understand this law.

Soon, this sense of grandeur disappeared.

He seemed to have entered a certain space.

And when his consciousness became clear, he saw a strange scene.

How to say it.

Möbius strip? Contradictory space? Klein bottle? Penrose triangle?

This is a huge, twisted space, like the interior of a spiral tower building.

However, there are countless buildings in this tower, which are not perpendicular to the ground where he is, but perpendicular to the wall where he is.

There are even suspended buildings.

He could see all kinds of scenery intertwined together, each part was logical and impressive, but when combined together, it deviated from logic and contradicted his understanding.

For example, next to where he was, there was a triangular folded upward broken staircase.

However, compared to this, the other side seemed more intuitive.

In the distance of his vision, a group of strange figures were walking up along the twisted "wall" or "ground".

Such a scene made Yao Yan a little stunned.

He had never seen such a place.

But at this moment, he heard a voice.

"Hello."

Yao Yan turned his head and saw a woman.

This face was different from the Yanren just now, but Yao Yan could feel that the feeling she gave him was the same as that of the Yanren before.

However, she was not in the posture of a Yanren.

Instead, she was gray and white, like a doll.

Just like the ball-jointed dolls he had seen in his previous life, it didn't have the texture of wood or metal, but felt closer to bones.

However, it also had a chitinous texture, like an exoskeleton.

His sight passed over the other's eyes, which seemed to be composed of countless small and dense crystals.

If he still had a body, he might feel uncomfortable because of the fear of decay and dense objects engraved in his DNA.

Maybe there would be a uncanny valley effect?

Unfortunately, he didn't have such thoughts now.

Including the novelty of this strange space that was somewhat familiar but unfamiliar to him, he didn't have any emotional fluctuations.

Indifferently, he looked at the woman:

"Wall of the Faithless?"

Faced with his question, Loulan took a deep breath, and the delicate face that could make ordinary people feel uncomfortable slightly raised, and widened the densely crystallized and gorgeous pupils:

"This place is called 'Buzhou Mountain' by the Yan people, 'Tower of Babel' by the Yi people, and 'Pillars of Hercules' by the Hai people. There are many names."

The gradually calmed mood allowed her to speak more steadily:

"Whether it is a containment or a contaminated body, they can come to this tower through the guide."

She looked at Yao Yan and said:

"Here, after joining a certain force, you can get the qualification to use a certain trial space."

"Every time we experience a trial, we can gain a certain 'rationality', which allows us to maintain our personality and will not lead to extreme personality due to repeated use of abilities."

"And if we pass the trial, it is possible to obtain the spiritual residue of the old era from the trial, so that we can gain new strength."

And Loulan's words made Yao Yan silent for a moment.

I won't talk about Buzhou Mountain, the Tower of Babel, the Pillars of Hercules, etc. These are obviously related to mythological elements and should be related to the "nightmare game".

But trials? Rationality? Maintaining personality?

According to the logic of what she just said, using abilities many times will lead to extremes, loss of rationality and personality?

He carefully confirmed the changes in himself.

Although he has not been awakened in this world or this era for a long time, the number of times he has used his abilities is not many, but it is also frequent.

Apart from losing emotions because of the lack of a physical body after waking up, has there been any changes in his thinking?

No.

But it cannot be ruled out that such a situation will occur after using abilities many times in the future.

He glanced at this "woman" who looked different from the previous Yanren, recalled the "Unbelievers Cult", and then said:

"What forces are there here?"

He asked a very basic question, and he was not afraid that the other party would know that he did not know this place.

Or, the other party may have seen it.

He even thought there might be a trap here, so he made the previous move.

In fact, Loulan was a little unsure.

How much does this unknown polluted body know about the non-believers?

Being able to say "no bottom line" means that he obviously knows a lot about the non-believers.

The non-believers cannot be said to be unknown, but they are also extremely hidden, whether in Buzhou Mountain or outside Buzhou Mountain.

Even those who know about the non-believers will be more or less deceived by the "no faith" they promote and find it difficult to distinguish.

The non-believers' mode of action, at least the mode of action on the surface, is all kinds of anti-blind worship. In this representation, it is a bit extreme, and it looks like they don't believe in anything that is not empirical, so it seems dogmatic.

Even many of the shelterers and polluters who have joined the non-believers will be deceived by this skin and think that the "non-believers" are really "non-believers".

Loulan is not a high-ranking official, but she has met high-ranking officials.

This loose organization, the identity of the "Unbeliever Cult", is just an identity that can be used by the high-ranking officials of the Unbeliever Cult.

The image of the "Unbeliever Cult" is what they can use as a cover for their actions.

She said that the only "principle" or "common point" of the "Unbeliever Cult" she knew was that "everything can be used".

Regardless of the organization, identity, or even "interests" themselves, they can all be used as objects of use.

No bottom line, no principles, and can give up everything for various goals.

Therefore, she said to this "polluting body" of unknown origin, "Is it an Unbeliever or a Unbeliever?", making it difficult for her to grasp the other party's identity.

However, with such a degree of understanding of the Unbeliever Cult, it is obviously impossible that they don't know about Buzhou Mountain.

The Yan people are quite conservative and basically will not allow the weaker Yan people to enter Buzhou Mountain.

But even so, as long as you advance to the second level, you can access the information of Buzhou Mountain, and even enter Buzhou Mountain directly from the second level.

What is the origin of this contaminated body?

Could it be that a certain organization's receiver has transformed into a contaminated body?

Loulan, who was in a state of uncertainty, could not grasp what the contaminated body in front of him was planning. For this basic question, he had to answer honestly.

ps: Sorry, the update is late. I went to the hospital, but the situation has not changed much, so it is not a big problem.

By the way, how many shots have you taken?
