The Origin of Arcane - Chapter 1016
The other is to deliberately create the difference between reality and the second world.
After all, there is still a primary and secondary distinction between the two.
The real world is the basis for the existence of the second world. If the real world ceases to exist, the second world will naturally cease to exist.
The significance of the existence of the second world is to better build and develop the real world, and at the same time serve as a buffer battlefield between reality and the plane of shadow.
It is not a safe haven for people to escape reality.
In many parts of the Second World, the games created by Sean look like games, which are much crueler in nature.
The real world now has a second world as a buffer, and death is not necessarily true.
If you die in the second world, you are truly dead.
As the war with the Shadow Plane escalates, the enemies they face are getting stronger and stronger, and the security law of the second world is no longer absolute security.
Not to mention the shadow masters, even some shadow monsters that touch the level of the law may directly obliterate the heroic warriors before the second world security law takes effect.
The continuous escalation of the war with the Shadow Plane is mainly caused by two aspects.
One is that the energy delivered by Abigail to the plane of Arshan is not pure. It has been eroded by shadow energy for many years. Even the goddess Abigail could not completely purify and separate it. During the transportation, it was naturally taken together. Coming over.
Moreover, it is difficult to complete a thorough connection between the two planes.
The energy that leaves the Abigail plane and enters the plane of Arshan must flow through the plane of shadow.
Even if the distance is short, it must flow through.
This is determined by the relationship between the planes.
Countless shadow creatures are surrounding the plane of Arshan, wanting nowhere!
Suddenly there was a direct flow of energy flowing out in front of them. For them, instead of opening a window, they opened a fast lane, inviting them to enter the plane of Arshan as a guest.
Even if this fast lane is full of unknown dangers, if you are not careful, some weak shadow monsters will be completely torn by the energy flow and become a member of the energy flow.
Those shadow monsters still burrowed inside.
If they have the ability to judge the situation, they are not shadow monsters.
I have said it before.
The Arshan World Tree has very strong fusion and the ability to absorb negative energy, but its digestive ability is much worse.
After those negative energies are absorbed, they are all stored in one’s own body.
In a short period of time, a small amount of negative energy will not have a particularly large impact on it. Over time, problems will definitely occur.
In this regard, Sean has accumulated sufficient combat experience on the plane of Abigail.
The establishment of a second world on the Arshan World Tree is not a matter of unilateral demand, but a mutual benefit.
The heroic soldiers of the Second World are scraping bones for the Arshan World Tree every day, removing the malignant energy from the plane of shadow and the plane of hell.
Another channel for the forces of the Shadow Plane to invade the plane of Arshan is through Shaun and the others, the Shadow Master Hull.
Sean joined forces with the goddess Abigail to seal the crack in the space that it had planned with one hand, after the arms that the demons had just tried to reach in were cut off.
Hull, the mother of the shadows, is clearly aware that the situation is extremely unfavorable for her.
He has been completely exposed to the sight of the goddess Sean and Abigail, and they will definitely try to get rid of themselves to avoid future troubles.
But the rocker that made him stronger, able to invade the plane of Arshan earlier than the other shadow mistresses, now became his biggest shackle, and he couldn’t escape if he wanted to let go.
The only thing Shadow Master Hull can do is to accelerate the erosion of the plane of Arshan.
The shadow master Hull had to give up the selfish idea of monopolizing the plane of Arshan, and open the floating city, a shortcut to the plane of Arshan, to other shadow masters.
The shadow mistress entrenched in Breisan Floating City is no longer one, but five.
This made Sean and the others have to press the pause button for their revenge plan.
A shadow mistress.
With sufficient preparation and the help of the goddess Abigail, they still have more than 80% chance of winning.
Even if it is out of control, it will be within the range they can bear.
Five shadow mistresses get together.
It’s far beyond the scope of Sean and their abilities, there are too many uncontrollable factors inside, and if you are not careful, you will get rid of it.
When the time comes, it is not to close the door to beat the dog, but to lead the wolves into the room, which is a kind of group.
The leader of Yongye has meticulously studied for many years, and prepared to use the towing magic circle to pull the floating city into the plane of Arshan. It was reversed by them and became a plane-reinforced magic circle, which was specially used to lock the floating city of Breisan and seal it. The space around it prevents the Shadow Mothers from extending their tentacles into the plane of Ashan as much as possible.
But the combined power of the five shadow mistresses is not comparable to one shadow mistress.
Nightmare invasion.
It is no longer a secret.
It’s a series of events all over the continent and even the whole world.
In this series of events, the entanglement of shadows is vividly displayed.
Those twisted nightmares sent into the plane of Arshan by the Shadow Mother, no matter how strong or weak, all showed strong secretiveness.
Days and nights come out, in and out of the dreams of countless creatures.
With their intervention, even a sweet dream can turn into a nightmare.
Not to mention, those dreams that are nightmares in themselves have become paradise for these twisted nightmares.
Those nightmares tend to become more bizarre and more vivid. Even if the intelligent life is awake, those weird nightmare dreams will not be forgotten, lingering in their minds, and even overlapping with reality.
Until they were tortured madly and couldn’t distinguish the difference between reality and nightmare, they became toys and puppets in the hands of twisted nightmares.
This is what twisted nightmares do best.
Not to mention that in the early days, it is difficult for ordinary people to find them. Even if they find them, they are often helpless against such invisible enemies and wait to die.
If it is discovered late, there will often be a manor, or even a village, being manipulated by a twisting nightmare and playing it into a ghost.
The twisted nightmare sent in by the shadow mistress, no matter how weak and small it was, absorbed so much negative energy and twisted so many souls, its strength usually became very powerful, and twisted servants were in groups, making it very difficult to handle.
The solution that various forces can think of is to gather professionals in the territory to set up special departments to be responsible for such related affairs.
The real difficulty in dealing with this kind of enemy is how to find them and identify ordinary people who have been manipulated and twisted their souls.
The Nightmare Invasion is a catastrophic time for the invasion as a whole.
However, the development of religious beliefs on the continent of Ashan has played an unexpected role, especially the leader of Yongye.
Compared with those who have no faith, when the souls of those who have faith are manipulated and invaded, they will be transmitted to the existence they believe in through the line of faith as soon as possible.
Sean can respond immediately according to their situation, or strengthen their soul protection through the Soul Line, or notify the relevant departments and send professionals to help them deal with these things they cannot solve.
When faith is no longer illusory, but substantive, visible, tangible, and closely related to their lives, the speed of faith spread will naturally accelerate.
This also means that the enemy of Holy Ether Holy See has become more and more difficult.
Just as Shaun had predicted at the time, the war mode in the continent of Ashan has changed unconsciously.
No longer a mere territory and resources, the struggle for belief has become the top priority.
Even if it is forced to occupy a piece of land by force, the people on this piece of land are all devout believers of the other party, and they are full of huge and unforgettable hatred against the invaders.
No matter how arrogant the commander is, he has no face to say that he has conquered this land. On the contrary, they need to be careful about suicidal terrorist attacks everywhere.
If one’s own beliefs have unknowingly occupied the dominant position among the people of this territory, even if this territory is still under the control of the enemy, it will be a matter of time before it becomes its own territory.
In the five years of the catastrophe, the Yongye Army leader and the Holy See Empire had not had a direct confrontation with each other, but the battle of faith between the two sides had begun vigorously.
The purpose of the battle between the two sides is naturally to compete for believers, and it is disaster and hunger that are used.
In this battle of faith.
The Yongye leader is the active offensive party, and the Holy See Empire spends most of its time passively defending.
In the early days, the three disaster victims’ diversion policy led by the Yongye Army was indeed only open to the residents of the Yongye Army.
But in the end, when the battle of faith between the two sides is fierce, it is no longer limited to the Yongye army leader itself, and at the same time it is also open to the people of the Holy See Empire who can’t survive. There is only one premise, cutting off the line of faith with the Holy See. .
The line of faith is both strong and fragile.
Resilience means that when facing external forces, even if it is Sean who has stepped into the realm of gods, he can easily kill the followers of the Holy See, but there is no way to cut the line of faith between him and his believers.
Because this is a kind of belief, a kind of soul connection, non-material existence.
Vulnerability means that when facing oneself, believers can cut off the line of their beliefs with one thought. If they cooperate with the corresponding blasphemy rituals, it will be easier, but if you want to re-establish it, it is basically one An impossible thing, at least it is impossible for ordinary believers to rely on their own ability, because this is a matter of law.
For those who are displaced and forced to accept the Yongye Army’s policy of diverting the victims, even if the Yongye Army does not make this request, most of their lines of faith have long been broken.
This is a sequelae of Pope St. George’s rapid recruitment of believers with holy sites.
These believers are the miracles shown by the Pope Saint George, and all kinds of beautiful promises, and joined the ranks of faith.
This belief itself is full of utilitarianism.
They joined the Holy See in exchange for the better life they wanted.
When the Holy See was unable to fulfill its promises, these beliefs would collapse as soon as they came.
Managing a parish and governing a territory are two completely different concepts.
The management of the diocese only needs to focus on the spiritual needs of the people, and the material needs are only used to serve the former.
Governance of the territory, the material needs, but will be greatly improved, especially in the year of catastrophe, the management requirements will be greatly improved.
Because the ability of ordinary people and ordinary families to resist disasters is too bad, they must rely on the strength of the group to get through the most difficult moments.
This is definitely a big challenge in territorial governance.
In many well-managed territories, it is difficult to say whether they can survive this kind of shock.
Not to mention that the transition of power has not yet been completed and the internal management of the Holy See is chaotic.
The Holy See places the hope of maintaining local security and leading the people through disasters on those local lords who have entrusted them with important tasks.
The local lord and nobles shifted the responsibility to the Holy See, thinking that this was the responsibility of the entire Holy See, because they had already paid the taxes they needed to pay to the Holy See.
Even some responsible local lord and nobles can’t manage them if they want to.
Because they are also in a state of sitting and eating, they simply don’t have so many materials to allocate to the ordinary citizens, and continue their lives, only to delay the arrival of desperation.
If it’s a small disaster, it’s pretty good, maybe it’s over.
But this kind of catastrophe that has lasted for several years without seeing hope at all, often they themselves will be dragged into desperation.
Afraid to compare everything.
In the comparison of the Holy See, the performance of the ruling stratum led by the Yongye army in the face of this catastrophe is qualified, even if the materials are also very scarce~www.mtlnovel.com~ The daily distribution of food in hands is mainly scarce. Only occasionally can I see dry.
However, in such a year, it is already an extremely lucky thing to barely fill my stomach and continue to live.
However, the real weapon of the Yongye Army leader in the battle of faith is the Second World and the Soul Stone.
The Eternal Night Army leader may not have such a powerful force. In the disaster years, even the victims of the Holy See were also saved, but they can save their souls, secretly bring their souls to the second world, and give them second Chance.
Of course, all this was done in secret, and many victims of the Holy See Empire had no knowledge of their souls before entering the second world.
How could Pope Saint George and the phantom angel behind him allow the Eternal Night Army to steal their souls from them?
For this reason, the Holy See has adapted and expanded the Sword of Holy Ether, and renamed it the Religious Inquisition. The main responsibility is to arrest the soul stealers from the Yongye army leader.
This secret war is also called the Five-Year Soul Fight.
