Chapter 721: Taking the Hook
"Wrong, wrong, totally wrong!"
"Everything is fake!"
"We don't exist in the real world now, but are trapped in the mirror."
"No, that's not right. We are trapped in the gap between the mirror and reality."
In the experimental base of the [Quincy Organization], 15 vice presidents including Dulaimen looked desperate, like defeated roosters.
It had been 10 days since the arrival of the mirror light, but they still couldn't escape.
…
When the mirror light first came, Dulaimen and others were full of confidence and joy.
In their opinion, this was the Imperial Viscount sending them warmth again.
At a glance at this mirror light, you can tell that it is another time-space treasure.
It should be the most famous treasure mirror of Chen Qi.
…
If it was before, Dulaimen and others would still be afraid of Chen Qi's famous time-space treasure mirror.
But after dealing with [Time-Space Intestine], they felt that they were okay again.
Dulaimen and others believed that even if they did not ask the elder, they could still escape from the space-time mirror.
…
Then Dulaimen and others started to tackle the technical problems.
This time, they not only had to escape successfully, but also had to completely decipher this space-time treasure.
They just didn't believe it. Could it be that Chen Qi could have a third space-time treasure.
…
"False, everything is false."
"We are now covered by the mirror!"
"The mirror has tampered with our space-time cognition."
This is the research result of Dulaimen and others in the first three days.
…
After being covered by the mirror light, Dulaimen and others discovered a magical phenomenon.
That is, the world covered by the mirror light could not be measured accurately.
Or in other words, there are subtle differences in the world perceived by each of them.
…
This does not seem to be a big deal in the eyes of mortals.
However, for Dulaimen and others, this is equivalent to 15 of them being in 15 different worlds.
Their respective research on the mirror light is completely inconsistent, and even goes in opposite directions.
Unable to crack the essence of the mirror light, they naturally became ants trapped in a circle, unable to get out no matter what.
…
After the first setback, Dulaimen and others immediately woke up from their "expansion".
Then they showed the professional side of the [Quincy Organization].
With their division of labor and unremitting efforts.
It only took one day for them to get rid of the influence of the mirror light on their perception.
…
Although Dulaimen did not know what power was contained in the mirror light, they came to a conclusion.
That is, you must not use spirituality to perceive, otherwise you will definitely make mistakes.
And if you use spirituality to perceive for a long time, you will be polluted by something, causing complete cognitive disorder.
The Viscount of the Empire is really treacherous, and he actually made a move in secret.
…
However, this is really the mean heart of Dulaimen and others.
If Chen Qi really wanted to plot against them, he would not suppress Jinlaihua.
The "influence" that Dulaimen and others suffered was just a little insignificant original breath emitted by Jinlaihua.
If Chen Qi had the intention to kill, Dulaimen and his companions would have been eaten by Jinlaihua the moment they were enveloped by the mirror light.
…
After seeing through the "dirty tricks" of the Viscount of the Empire, Dulaimen and his companions switched to various professional equipment for observation.
They even upgraded their equipment to combat mirror light pollution.
The result was something that they could not believe.
The results of their observations of the surrounding world were still different.
…
"Mirror, we must be trapped in the mirror now."
"We must have been separated from the real world when our perception was disordered before."
"It doesn't matter, as long as we stimulate the raw materials, we will definitely be able to break out of the mirror!"
Even if they encountered setbacks again, Dulaimen and his companions still did not give up, but were full of fighting spirit.
After some precise calculations, they stimulated the raw materials, released the ripples of space-time to produce impact, and finally broke out of the mirror.
…
However, the embarrassing thing is that even if Dulaimen and his companions returned to the "real world", they still could not get rid of the shackles of the mirror light.
Unwilling to give up, they used the instruments to observe again, and the result was dumbfounded.
The 15 of them still had different observations of the "real world".
…
After being confused for a long time, Dulaimen and others continued to learn from their mistakes and fought against the mirror light.
As a result, what happened next shocked them and shook their worldview.
They did return to the real world, but the real world was "tampered" by the mirror light.
This tampering went deep into the microscopic level and reached the second microscopic gate.
…
That is to say, if they cannot break through the second microscopic gate at the microscopic scale of the interference world, they still cannot return to the real real world.
And as long as they are still covered by the mirror light, they naturally cannot escape.
It has to be said that the [Quincy Organization] still has some background.
Dulaimen and others gritted their teeth and used their bottom treasures.
Then they pried open the second microscopic gate of this world distorted by the mirror light.
As a result, they were completely desperate.
…
Because Dulaimen and others did not return to the real real world, but fell into the gap between the mirror world and the real world.
This can only show that they are still a little behind the Imperial Viscount in terms of world interference.
It's really just a little bit. If the gap is too big, they won't be able to pry open the second microscopic door of the mirror world.
But this difference prevents them from returning to the real world.
…
What’s even more deceptive is that the world between the cracks is always being reorganized.
And the existence of 15 of them is itself 15 sources of interference.
Under their mutual interference, the world between the cracks could not complete the reorganization and return to the real world.
…
Unless their 15 vice-presidents kill each other and only one survives.
Of course the [Destroyer Organization] would not do such stupid things.
Because as smart as they are, they already know that even if there is only the last person left, it is impossible to escape.
…
The Imperial Viscount is still watching them from the "source"!
His gaze determines whether the world is real or not.
It was precisely because they understood this that Dulayman and others were extremely frustrated and fell into despair.
Because it is simply impossible for them to get out of trouble by their own strength alone.
…
"Are you finally willing to accept your fate?"
"I've been struggling for a long time, it's not easy!"
Chen Qi yawned out of boredom.
People with some ability are really arrogant, just like the [Destroyer Organization], who have to suffer a bloody blow to recognize the reality.
To be honest, although Chen Qi was sure that Dulayman and others would not be able to get out of trouble.
But these guys still gave Chen Qi a little surprise.
…
Chen Qi really didn't expect that the space-time treasure of the Exterminator organization could actually pry open the second microscopic door.
If it weren't for the fact that these guys were still a little behind in their understanding of the microscopic realm, they would have really been able to run away this time.
As for now, that time and space treasure is about to welcome the Ming Lord.
…
After the third step of being promoted to Silver Apostle, Chen Qi discovered a wonderful use of the power of authority, which was to force open the first microscopic door.
There is no need to know "lock picking skills" at all, the crowbar works wonders.
But that’s about it.
…
According to Chen Qi's calculations, even a master at the 4th and 9th steps of the Silver Apostle would not be able to pry open the second microscopic door with just the power of authority.
Unless you are a Dzogchen master like Senior Sister Jiang, all the power of authority collapses into one again.
But Chen Qi, with the blessing of the Space-Time Mirror, could barely do it.
The key to this is naturally the power of space and the power of original heaven.
…
After realizing this, Chen Qi thought that once the treasure mirror came out, he would be invincible in the silver realm.
It seems a bit worse now.
The [Destroyer Organization] can open the second microscopic door, and other forces may also be able to.
For example, Chen Qi thought of a way, which was to sacrifice and burn the power of authority.
It seems that as a person, you still can't be too arrogant.
…
"What should we do? What should we do now?"
"As long as Chen Qi is outside and we are trapped in the mirror light, it is impossible to break the situation!"
"The Imperial Viscount is indeed worthy of his reputation. We were really naive before."
The 15th Vice-President Robis looked desperate. This time he really couldn't escape.
It’s not that they [the Destroyer Organization] are not good, it’s that the other party is too terrifying.
Mo Kan is just a little off, but in the realm of time and space, this is infinite!
…
"Don't panic, stay calm."
"We still have the president here!"
"As long as the president takes action, we will definitely not lose."
"At a critical moment", Dulayman once again used his trump card.
Suddenly enlightened, the other 14 vice-presidents immediately remembered that they still had a backer.
…
However, compared with the confidence in the past, the vice presidents who have seen the methods of the Imperial Viscount have a little hesitation in their hearts.
Can the president really be able to handle it this time?
Especially the six people who had never met President [Void] from beginning to end, they felt even less sure.
…
"Yes, we still have the president here."
"The president will not be bothered by the mirror light at all!"
"President, you must help us again this time."
The third vice president was the first to look at the empty seat.
His action immediately caused a chain reaction. The next moment, the other 14 vice presidents also looked there.
Sandy and the other six people who pretended to be fake saw nothing.
But the nine Dulaymen people looked happy, obviously they saw it.
…
"Is it finally here?"
When Dulayman and others were completely desperate, Chen Qi was already ready.
At Nantianmen, Chen Qi, who had been fighting on two fronts, closed his right eye for the first time.
When he opened it again, his right eye looked toward the empty ice like his left eye.
…
Chen Qi's behavior immediately alarmed Gu Yunqing, who had been "devoted to his job" recently.
He looked at his junior in surprise, had a fish taken the bait?
Junior brother's luck is too good, isn't it?
…
But to be honest, Gu Yunqing still didn't expect Chen Qi to succeed in hunting.
In fact, it is because the nature of illusion is so special that only the power of authority can capture it.
To be more precise, it can only be captured by a giant web woven with many fluctuations of authority.
…
The denser the mesh, the higher the success rate of hunting.
But generally speaking, it is basically impossible for weavers below the level of weaver to hunt successfully.
The reason is very simple. The webs they weave with the fluctuations of authority are not only extremely sparse, but also not strong.
…
So the inner world mostly waits in the real world for illusions.
Because once illusions enter the real world, they have a real foundation, and the authority network woven by the silver apostles can have an effect on them.
And it is ridiculously difficult to capture illusions in the spiritual dimension.
If it is really that easy, illusions would not be worthy of being the number one enemy of mankind in the spiritual dimension.
…
"Is this illusion?"
"If I hadn't been staring at it, I really wouldn't have found it."
Just when Dulaimen thought of the president of [Void] again, a transparent figure suddenly appeared on the ice surface corresponding to the base of [Quincy Organization].
…
To be precise, Chen Qi actually saw nothing.
He just calculated the existence of illusions through the sudden distortion of the light that shone from the human world to the spiritual dimension.
This is because Chen Qi has strong computing power, otherwise he really can't track the illusion in real time.
…
As Chen Qi's algorithm becomes more and more proficient, the specific outline of the illusion is gradually calculated by him.
Along with the change of cognition, a transparent figure really appeared on the originally empty ice surface.
Its body is only half a meter in size, and it looks like a giant leech in the human world.
…
"What kind of intelligent race is this!"
All the illusions in the spiritual dimension of the inner ring world were created by the Fourth Heavenly Dynasty.
And the target of the Fourth Heavenly Dynasty's "dimensionality reduction" can only be intelligent life.
So the illusion that looks like a leech must have been an intelligent race in the past.
…
The reason why it was in the past is, of course, because its race is likely to be exterminated by humans.
And the sign of the extinction of intelligent civilization is the destruction of the [soul] or the high-dimensional point in the fall.
Once it is destroyed, even if there are still individuals of the race surviving, they will lose their souls.
…
Chen Qi searched through the database in his mind, but could not find an intelligent civilization that could correspond to the leech.
Although a little depressed, Chen Qi was very open-minded and not discouraged at all.
Because "not knowing" is the normal situation.
After all, that was a race that lived in the old days and was exterminated by the Fourth Heavenly Dynasty.
…
The inner ring world of today knows very little about the Fourth Heavenly Dynasty of the old days, let alone other "flash-and-dash" intelligent races.
If they were exterminated by the Fourth Heavenly Dynasty in the real world, there might be some debris left, which could be dug up by ancient civilization scholars.
But falling into the spiritual dimension means that they really disappeared from the real world.
It would be strange if they were not forgotten.
…
Chen Qi is just a silver apostle, how could he know everything.
In fact, let alone him, even the top ten super spell schools also have things they don't know.
For example, Angsa City.
…
In order to find out the origin of Angsa City, Chen Qi recently used various channels and connections.
But he couldn't find any information at all.
Tianwu Spell Academy could not find it, and Youquan Spell Academy and Huangtian Spell Academy, which had some friendship with Chen Qi, could not find it either.
Even at Wushen Spell Academy, Chen Qi could not get any relevant clues.
Even Tie Xinyan had never heard of Angsa City.
…
At first, Chen Qi felt a little shocked and incredible.
But after thinking about it, he understood it again.
It's ridiculous to say, maybe it's because he is used to seeing the power of the top ten super spell academies and the Sword of Judgment.
Chen Qi thought they knew everything and could do everything.
But how is this possible?
…
Everything in the past is being "forgotten", not to mention the things that happened in the old days.
Even the world government may know most of the inside stories of the old days.
But it is impossible to know everything that happened in the old days.
…
The main plot of the old days is that the 4th Heavenly Dynasty slaughtered countless intelligent races.
How many intelligent races they slaughtered, humans today may not be able to find out clearly.
What's more, it was just some trivial matters that he handled casually.
…
What happened in Ansa City may be a major matter in the eyes of modern humans.
After all, an entire giant city was destroyed, and the three ancestral viruses were involved.
But in the old days, it might really be just a trivial matter.
In terms of the scale of death and influence, Ansa City is not even comparable to a ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens.
It wants to compete with the extermination of intelligent races for exposure, is it worthy?
…
So it is normal for Ansa City to be completely forgotten, and it is also normal that the Ten Super Spell Academy does not know about it.
On the contrary, it is abnormal that the Skull Society can discover it.
Chen Qi also conducted an investigation on this doubt.
Then he learned some information about the Tongyou Tree and the Netherworld.
If the big fish had not suddenly taken the bait now, Chen Qi would have started to study the Netherworld.
…
"It's starting to bite the hook!"
The big leech appeared on the ice and kept wandering.
It didn't stick to the ice until the 3rd Vice President in the real world looked at it.
It was extremely strange. According to Chen Qi's calculations, at the moment all 15 vice presidents looked at the empty seat.
Nine black eyes appeared on the big leech's abdomen.
The reason why Chen Qi was able to calculate this result was because the light in that direction was extremely distorted.
…
"President, Chen Qi's time and space mirror is too evil. What should we do?"
"President, that guy is such a thief. He stayed out of the matter. There is nothing we can do against him."
"President, this time I can only rely on you to take action personally."
In the real world, Dulayman and others gathered around the empty seats and kept talking.
The problem this time seems to be difficult for Guild Leader [Void] as well.
It actually remained silent.
…
Seeing such a scene, the nine people in Dulaymen instantly felt a chill.
No way, even the president can’t handle it?
Seemingly sensing the doubts of the nine people at Dulaymen, the big leech, who had hesitated because of some "wonderful induction", finally spoke.
These 9 guys are the food that it took so much trouble to get, so it can't let them go.
For Xuwu, once the food questions them, the difficulty of eating it directly increases a thousand times.
…
"Okay, okay, that's it."
"The president is still brilliant!"
As the big leech spoke, the communication between the [Exterminator Organization] returned to the previous channel.
In the real world, Dulayman and others didn't feel anything was wrong at all.
However, Chen Qi on the Nantianmen saw a horrifying scene.
He finally understood how illusion swallowed up reality.
