Chapter 595: People Who Believe in the Red Star
To say that Liu Qingyan didn't want to go in and see Chen Ling would be a lie, but in her mind at the moment, the previous conversation unconsciously resurfaced.
"My Lord Envoy... do you think if I find him, he will agree to let me follow him?"
"Probably not."
"Why?"
"Some people are used to being alone and don't like having people around...especially people from the Dusk Society."
If she went in to watch the show, even if she was disguised like this, she believed that Chen Ling would still be able to recognize her at a glance, and might think that she was a ghost... Since Chen Ling had made it clear that he did not want her to follow her, then she would Just watch it from a distance, this has been decided a long time ago.
Liu Qingyan didn't want to cause trouble to Chen Ling, nor did she want him to think she was troublesome. It didn't matter whether she saw him or not, as long as she knew he was there, that was enough.
Liu Qingyan passed through the crowd and passed the door of a cheap hotel opposite, and suddenly stopped.
She looked up at the small black windows on the second and third floors of the hotel, and then at the brightly lit theater opposite. A flash of hesitation flashed in her eyes... After she hesitated for a long time, she touched the silver in her pocket. ticket.
"You should be able to hear it from here, right?"
Liu Qingyan pursed her lips slightly and walked into the dim hotel door.
…
Jinghong Tower.
After checking all the tickets, Jian Changsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, followed Diamond 10 back to the theater, and sat down on the threshold.
"Yes, where were you talking about?"
"Jiangtian Sect."
"Oh, yes, I have heard of it. Aren't they, like the Twilight Society and the Fusion Faction, the most wanted forces in the nine realms and public enemies of mankind?" Jian Changsheng was stunned, "What? The power outage... …Is it related to them?”
"From the perspective of the nine realms, this is indeed the case, but we are different from those guys." Diamond 10 said sternly, "The goal of our Twilight Society is just to reverse the times and restart the world. Our path is correct. Yes, it is beneficial to the entire human race! It is just not recognized by the nine realms... But the existence of Jiangtian Sect is a pure human worm.
Do you know what the people of Jiangtian Sect believe in? "
"I remember... believing in the Red Star?" Jian Changsheng recalled.
"That's right." Diamond 10 nodded slightly, "The Jiangtian Sect crazily worships the Red Star. They believe that the existence of human civilization is wrong. It is a virus civilization that grew on this planet. Since it is a mistake, it needs to be corrected...
They regard the Red Star as a messenger sent by God, shouldering the responsibility of correcting everything and restoring everything. Wherever the Red Star passes, civilization will regress, and everything will flow back to the most primitive starting point. "
"Believe in the Red Star and destroy civilization?" Jian Changsheng couldn't help but say, "This is the real madman...how can anyone believe this?"
"Actually, it's normal. The more turbulent and dark the era, the more popular various religious beliefs are... The regression of material civilization is beyond ordinary people's cognition. In addition, the world is facing crises one after another. People need faith as spiritual spirit. sustenance.”
Diamond 10 shrugged and continued, "Those who believe in red stars, those who believe in fusion, those who believe in science, those who believe in various metaphysics and witchcraft... In this era, don't have too many miscellaneous beliefs;
I heard that in other realms, there are still people who believe in something...'Silence Angel'? It is said that he is a great being from outside the world, carrying six gray wings, and can destroy the world with a snap of his fingers... Anyway, the rumors are getting more and more mysterious. "
"Angel? Real or fake..."
"I don't know. Anyway, not many people have seen him so far."
"Wait... So, what does Jiangtian Sect have to do with the power outage?" Jian Changsheng was still confused.
"The Jiangtian Cult believes in the Red Star. The believers will obtain some kind of power from the Red Star and use themselves as the carrier of the Red Star." Block 10 paused for a moment, "Every Jiangtian cultist is a moving miniature Red Star. Once they are in a certain If you stay in a place for too long, your own breath will cause the surrounding 'tools' to malfunction. For example, circuits will fail inexplicably, and electromagnetic signals will be blocked...
If it takes longer, things like tables, chairs, beds, cabinets, etc. that are assembled by humans will break and turn into parts and be dismantled on the ground, let alone more sophisticated things like explosives or firearms... even a quilt, It will also be dismantled into countless threads, which will fly away at the slightest touch.
The aura they emit can even affect the operation of Shinto. The richer the aura of the Red Star they carry, the more serious this influence will be.
If we face a bishop-level enemy, the Shinto skills of level six and below will be completely confused, and even if we are not careful, we will be killed by our own skills. "
Jian Changsheng's eyes widened, "Isn't this too evil?"
"This is not the most evil thing... because Jiangtian believers all carry the breath of the Red Star. Once they appear in groups, they can release the breath of the Red Star in their bodies through suicide rituals. As long as there are enough and the positions follow a certain pattern, they can take the initiative Leading to the intersection of the gray world.
In other words, they can affect the surrounding environment when they are alive, and they can summon the gray world when they are dead, causing a lot of disasters... Theoretically, as long as there are enough Jiangtian believers who perform the ritual, they can even summon world-destroying disasters and disasters. His followers descended and destroyed a realm. "
Jian Changsheng took a breath!
He finally understood why the Jiangtian Sect was listed as one of the public enemies of mankind... Their existence itself is a threat to the nine realms of mankind. Even if they stay in the realm and do nothing, they will cause irreversible adverse effects on the realm!
"Then the recent frequent power outages, could it be..." Jian Changsheng swallowed his saliva.
"I hope I am overthinking." Block 10 glanced at the dark night above his head and muttered to himself, "If the Jiangtian Sect also gets involved... things will be troublesome."
...
Hotel.
Liu Qingyan took the key and kerosene lamp from the counter and walked slowly to the second floor along the narrow and old stairs.
Creak--creak--
A harsh sound came from the wooden stairwell, as if it would break due to aging in the next moment. Liu Qingyan stepped on it step by step, frowning unconsciously...
Because the hotel was out of power and there were no windows in the corridor, it was almost pitch black around. As she walked up to the second floor of the hotel, a faint musty smell came to her nose. The swaying kerosene lamp dispelled the darkness in a corner of the corridor, and several wooden doors with room numbers appeared in front of her.
Liu Qingyan glanced at the key number in her hand, walked straight to the door of the deepest room, and slowly inserted the key into it.
She turned the key gently, and before she could open the door with force, a crisp sound came from the lock, and then the entire door handle fell off the door and fell on the old floor, making a dull loud noise.
Plop--!
The door handle that was originally intact was broken into pieces on the ground.
