v3 Chapter 44: messenger of god

Nightmare afternoon town.

Abner was also startled when he saw that the lights of the floating city were all on, and almost took back the "gear book".

——He was a little worried that the changes in the floating city would attract those dangerous things in the afternoon town, and then implicate him.

But soon, Abner keenly found that there was nothing unusual in the town, as if the monsters in the darkness did not notice the dazzling lights in the floating city at all.

"The ceremony to protect the floating city, I judged from the video shown in the 'Gear Book' before, that it is an enlarged version of the secret technique 'Evans' Hidden Barrier'...

"This secret magic barrier should have borrowed the rich 'darkness' divine power left by the goddess in the town, causing the floating city to fall into a 'nightmare' deeper than this 'nightmare' afternoon town. It ignores it.

"'I' has a deeper nightmare than you, so relative to you, 'I' is a hidden state! Unless you also fall into a deeper nightmare, it will not affect 'I'... Combined with the fog of 'Night Kingdom' The town and the church in the town of 'Casbas' in East Chester can be roughly speculated that this is the principle.

"And the reason why I can see it and notice its changes is because the 'barrier' created by the black gem given by the goddess on the chest is the same as the 'barrier' of the floating city... that is to say, I am in the same tier of 'nightmare' as it is.

"In that case, this layer of barrier 1 outside the floating city is useless to me... After all, our 'layers' and 'secretness' are the same."

As soon as Abneral thought about it, he wanted to understand the whole story, and he couldn't help showing a sudden look on his face.

At the same time, he also walked along the stairs to the position where the middle level of Afternoon Town was connected to the platform of the Floating City.

They all came here, Abner didn't hesitate much, and in one step, he crossed the barrier that was visible to the naked eye.

Then, as he expected, the barrier did nothing to hinder him, but as he passed, Abner felt as if he was being marked by something, and the inspiration was telling him that he was being watched.

In this regard, Abner did not care, if the floating city was not even alert, even if there was a barrier, it would have been destroyed long ago.

However, after thinking about it, Abner still simulated the combination of "psychological invisibility" and "hiding in the shadows". After all, he is too conspicuous as an outsider. If he is misunderstood by the residents here, it will be bad to cause trouble. .

Although he has good intentions, he will not be beaten or fight back, right?

And before the ruler of the other party came to communicate, he wanted to take the opportunity to take a look and collect some information.

In fact, due to the sudden opening of all the energy-intensive projects in "Morning Star City", the people in the city gradually became panic, fear, excitement and frenzy from the initial stunned and sluggish. And so on.

Those who were panicked and fearful remembered the original "Morning Star Falls", thinking that something big would happen to this final home or that it would be difficult to deal with the enemy's invasion.

The excited and fanatics are because they think of the "Mechanical Emperor" they revere, and the prophecy left by the existence like a **** - "When he returns, the morning star will shine, and disaster will be far away..."

I don't know how many "people" spontaneously came to the surface from the middle and lower peaks, along the passage, and gathered under the statue of "Mechanical Emperor" in front of the central tower to pray.

Abner followed this stream of "people", which was an eye-opener.

Because ninety-nine percent of them have undergone complete mechanical transformation, and only a very small number of "young" people who were born in the past few decades have only changed to some parts of their costumes.

Due to the scarcity of materials, many metals are sourced locally in the afternoon town, so the styles of breeding clothes are also varied, and various "mix and match" styles prevail, which made Abner once thought that he had "traversed" to a certain cyberspace again. The underground street of the punk world.

However, this "custom" that has been completely modified, and even the brain is replaced by material simulation, has provided Abner a lot of convenience.

For example, after he became a demigod, the "information extraction" ability transformed from the sublimation of "breath extraction" could only "see" some local shallow "records".

But now, those mechanical brains that store "information" have become ready-made "databases" that can be "extracted" by Abner.

After all, those machines are different from normal human brains. They are essentially the same as the "information" retained in the environment, and they are all within the scope of the ability of the "prophet".

"202 years ago, the morning star fell... um, this year... I remember that according to the information shown in the 'gear book', the floating city was 203 years from its launch to its fall... The two numbers are so close, will it be possible? What does it foretell?

"The five alchemists fight against the four popes... Heh, the one named Goron is a powerful 'Three Heads Sanctuary', even if he calls himself the Pope... The other three are actually the strongest. It's Sequence 5, and you dare to be called the Pope? Does 'True Creator' have no cards? Is this actually 'blasphemy'?

"Well, those people should have heard the ravings of the 'true creator' before they converted... Maybe each of them heard different content and teachings, so they established their own sects? No wonder in a small floating city, To build four churches of the 'True Creator'... They are afraid they are still accusing each other of heresy.

"The 'Mechanical Emperor' Lucien Evans... The former 'I' really caught a book of arcane magic and smashed the wool! Fortunately, the 'floating city' was not called 'Allinge'...

"However, I was a little unlucky in my later years. I would encounter an energy core explosion when I was at the end of my lifespan when I was undergoing mechanical transformation... After more than 200 years of 'Morning Star City', countless mechanical transformations have never happened like this. The accident... It's no wonder that many people still suspect that it was the assassination of the believers of the 'True Creator'... Although 'my' friends and students have made clarifications after the accident investigation restarted a hundred years ago.

"Prophecy... the morning star shines, disasters stay away...

"Is this the future 'I' that was supposed to come back before I died?

"As for the morning star shining... Could it be that my arrival triggered some kind of preset mechanism?

"It doesn't seem to be, I remember it just changed 1 after I unsealed the 'Gear Book'...

"Speaking of which, what is going on in this floating city? What is the state of the people inside? The little 'Sun' clearly told me that the real 'Morning Star City' has crashed outside the real afternoon town."

Abner read the information, complained, and thought, and soon turned his attention to the statue of the 'Mechanical Emperor' in front of the tower.

Klein had previously visited the floating city in Nass that Master Claus copied, and described the main facilities there in detail to him, but he did not mention this statue...

This shows that this was built after the floating city fell into the Nightmare Town, and the existence who left a dream in the sea of ​​​​God War Ruins to guide Master Claus to imitate did not know this situation.

Of course, this alone is not worthy of Abner's attention. The reason why he is curious about the statue is because the other party gave him some familiar feeling... That feeling is just like Abner facing the "Wanderer" "Alvin Abraham, "God of Luck", and Sealed Artifact "1-025" felt very similar.

Taking a serious look at the statue in front of him, about three meters high, dressed in red shining metallic armor and wearing a full-coverage helmet on his head, Abner couldn't help thinking:

"It's not so much a statue, it's actually a full-body breeding outfit with exquisite materials and a good-looking shape!

"And the yellow gem on the top of the helmet... If I read it correctly, it should be a Beyonder item made of Beyonder characteristics directly and some items softened!

"This statue, no, this mecha itself is a powerful and extraordinary weapon!

"It's no wonder that those who are monitoring me don't care that I come near this statue... After all, in their opinion, this is the safest place for them.

"But...is that really true?"

Thinking of this, the corners of Abner's mouth couldn't help twitching, and then he directly used the secret technique of manipulating the "Bone Dragon" loaded in the "Necronomicon", letting the three-meter-high mecha crouch down and stretch out. Hands, hold yourself up.

——Because of the brief experience of manipulating Alvin Abraham's body, Abner has become quite proficient in this, and since he is all himself, the spirit of each other is the same, and there is no need for coherence, so although this kind of manipulation is far inferior to the imperfect one. "Clone" secret technique, but basic actions can still be made.

At the same time, Abner emerged and held the Gear Book aloft.

When the residents of "Morning Star City" gathered in front of the statue saw this scene, they were shocked and didn't know who took the lead, but they bowed and saluted together, and shouted the prophecy one after another:

"The morning star must shine, and disasters are far away...

"Great Emperor, are you back?"

Due to the different sounding devices~lightnovelpub.net~ electronic sounds, vibrating sounds and other sounds were messed up for a while.

At this time, the three members of the highest council in the office on the seventh floor of the tower couldn't sit still any longer. Almost instantly, the three of them used their methods to descend from the sky and came to the statue.

They originally wanted to wait and see what the uninvited guest wanted to do, and it was best to figure out the trump card... But now, seeing his missionary posture, they couldn't help but stop him.

With a buzzing sound, the black mecha male jammer temporarily disrupted the voice-producing devices and listening devices of the others present, and only made his own electronic sound play: "Your Excellency, who are you? What do you want to do?"

"I am an apostle of God..."

Abner looked at the three people in power who were unusual at first glance, and replied with a smile.
