Chapter 161 Altar of Stars, Stargazers Looking Up(1/2)
[Under your gaze, Bennett lowered his head in fear and slowly told you...]
[The third floor of the clinic was originally a place where customers could rest and recover after undergoing transplant operations. However, after the customers rested on the third floor, their temperaments changed drastically and they no longer respected the ‘Almighty True Knowledge’. 】
[It was very frightened by this and could only seek help from the Straight Vision Association and the Polyvision Association...]
[The president of the Polyvision Association came to the third floor of the clinic to check it out, and informed it that there was a strange phenomenon called the 'Remaining Illusion of Knowledge' on the third floor. 】
[The content of the illusion is perhaps about the evil heresy "Bright Stars". After people enter the illusion, they are often deceived by the evil heresy because their will is not strong enough, and they no longer believe in the "Almighty True Knowledge". 】
[Bennet is a citizen of the true God, with a firm and pure belief. Of course it does not want to be associated with the evil heresy, so it has spent huge sums of money on this, and begs President Du Shi to erase the illusion of the third level for him. 】
[President Duoshi agreed to its request, and after collecting the belongings, he entered the third floor of the clinic alone. Bennett waited silently at the stairs, waiting all day and night...]
[When it finally waited until President Duoshi walked down the third flight of stairs, it received the property returned by President Duoshi. President Duoshi told it that the third floor of the clinic was too deeply connected with the evil heresy, even for someone like the president.
Even the most knowledgeable people cannot eliminate the illusion of the third level.]
[President Duoshi sternly warned it that it is best to seal the third floor from now on to prevent anyone from being bewitched by evil heresies again. 】
[Of course Bennett, who has strong faith, agreed immediately, but it discovered that before President Duoshi left, his eyes were filled with stars, and there seemed to be countless stars twinkling...]
[After Bennett finished speaking, he looked horrified and explained to you repeatedly that he was afraid that the messenger of the true God would think that he was connected with evil heretics, so he did not take the initiative to mention the matters on the third floor of the clinic.]
[It is the most loyal believer in the 'Almighty True Knowledge' and will never associate with those heretics who blaspheme the true God. I implore the powerful messengers of the true God to believe in it...]
【Do you want to go explore the third floor of the clinic? 】
According to Bennett's description, President Duo Shi completely changed his beliefs and turned to the embrace of the "Bright Stars" in a vision on the third floor of the clinic.
But it is also possible that President Duo Sight had already embarked on the path of chasing the stars, and happened to encounter an illusion on the third floor of the transplant clinic, and then he was truly favored by the 'bright stars'.
The only question now is, should he go to the third floor of the clinic and enter the illusion?
Lin Xun still remembered that after he broke the oath of the 'Brilliant Stars', the game text once showed that 'you will be permanently hated by the camp of the Oath of the Brilliant Stars'.
If he were to explore the illusion on the third floor of the clinic, the risk factor would undoubtedly be greatly increased.
But if he doesn't explore the third floor...don't forget, the transplant clinic is likely to be the troll's next target.
When the troll really came, he regretted trying to enter the third floor of the clinic, but he could only face ruins.
After some confusion, Lin Xun decided to go and have a look.
The body of the Direct-Looking President that he just obtained in the body column and the powerful legendary skill "Light of the Meteor" give him the confidence to face the danger head-on.
Moreover, if you die in the illusion, you will not lose your soul strength, let alone reduce the upper limit of your soul strength.
The only thing he needs to worry about is whether the troll will attack the clinic when he enters the illusion.
You must know that the body is almost undefended when entering the illusion.
While thinking, he clicked 'Yes' in his hand.
[You tell Bennett that you believe it is a true believer in 'omnipotent knowledge'. What it needs to do now is to take you to the third floor of the transplant clinic immediately, then pack up the surgical instruments as quickly as possible and rush to the hospital without stopping.
Visual School Association.]
[Because the city of Sophia has given birth to a 'Mysterious Monster Overlord', which is a terrifying enemy ten and a hundred times more powerful than the giant monster you just killed. The transplant clinic is likely to become the target of the 'Mysterious Monster Overlord'
An attack target.】
[But as long as it escapes to the Multi-viewing School Association, finds Grand Maester Lorna, and explains its purpose, there is no need to worry about danger. 】
[When Bennett heard this, he stood there blankly. After a long time, he suddenly woke up and led you to the second floor of the clinic.]
[Behind the wall on the second floor of the clinic, Bennett struggled to push open a huge cabinet filled with bottles and cans.]
[Behind the cabinet is a dark staircase leading to the third floor of the clinic. 】
[Bennett took out a key and handed it to you, and told you that you can reach the third floor of the clinic by walking up the stairs. In the face of evil heretics, even if it is just an illusion, please be sure to be careful about your own safety, messenger of the true God.]
[You have obtained the ‘key to the third floor of the transplant clinic’ (key)]
[Bennett is very grateful that you informed it of the imminent danger. It followed your instructions and began to hurriedly pack up the surgical instruments...]
Lin Xun doesn't have to run away with Bennett.
As long as he quickly explores the illusion before the troll comes, he can use the teleportation function of the rest page to return directly to the Multi-Vision Association.
[You step on the steps, and the long-closed stairwell is filled with dust. Every time you take a step, the dust will fly up, making you cough again and again. 】
[The windows in the corridor are sealed with wooden bars, making it airtight. Without the illumination of the kerosene lamp, the enclosed space is pitch black, but the 'eyeballs of the underground compound-eyed demon' make your field of vision bright, and nothing can escape.
past your eyes.]
[You go up the stairs and when you reach the end of the stairs, a closed door appears in front of you.]
[You take out the ‘key to the third floor of the transplant clinic’, open the locked door, and what you see are neatly arranged hospital beds. 】
[It seems to be because it has been closed for a long time. The pungent smell of decay permeated the entire space, and the bedding on the hospital bed also accumulated a layer of dust visible to the naked eye. 】
[You walk to the hospital bed, lift off the dirty bedding, lie down on the hospital bed, and quietly look at the ceiling covered with cobwebs. 】
【……】
[The inexplicable sleepiness slowly creeps into your brain. You try your best to open your eyes, but you can only be dragged into an unknown dreamland...]
[You have entered the ‘remaining illusion of knowledge’...]
[The vast night sky is filled with endless bright stars, and the slightly dazzling starlight shines on the desolate land.]
[Everything that comes into view has an illusory double image, like a mottled and yellowed memory.]
[You are in the wilderness, and in front of you is a huge altar shining under the starlight. 】
[The altar is empty, with only a lonely figure looking up at the stars...]
【Do you want to step forward and enter the altar to observe carefully? 】
Lin Xun was prepared to instantly cast the 'Knowledge Grating' at any time and clicked 'Yes'.
[You step forward slowly and step onto the stone steps at the edge of the altar...]
【You have entered the ‘Altar of Stars’! 】
[The stars in the night sky seemed to be magnified tens of millions of times in an instant, becoming within reach.]
[Your field of vision is occupied by the huge stars, and the huge objects that are so close fill the entire night sky. Whether you are willing or not, as long as you open your eyes, your eyes will be attracted by the stars that are constantly approaching. 】
[The sudden sense of depression and insignificance makes you extremely tight in the chest and breathless. You just feel cold all over your body. Fear peels off all your coats, and you face the stars that occupy all your vision naked. 】
【……】
[A wrinkled hand pats your shoulder, pulling you out of the fear of drowning.]
【You suddenly wake up and see the lonely stargazer standing in front of you.】
[A large robe covers its figure, and a large pointed hat covers its face...]
[The ‘Looking Stargazer’ asks you if you are also deeply shocked by the power of the ‘bright stars’. 】
[You can’t help but nod.]
[It suddenly raised the brim of its hat, revealing a terrifying and strange face, with only a huge one-eyed eye reflecting the dazzling starlight.]
[The stargazer asks you, since you know the greatness of the ‘Bright Stars’, why did you betray the stars and become a fallen follower of the evil god ‘Almighty Knowledge’? 】
[Apostle with strong faith, how should you answer?]
[1. I am ashamed to say, 'I was young and ignorant back then and was bewitched by the almighty true knowledge. Now I have awakened and realized that the bright stars are the final destination' and asked it if you can join the 'Bright Stars' again.
pledge.】
[2. Retort without hesitation, 'The Almighty True Knowledge is the only true god, and the bright stars and the like are the heretical evil gods, so that's why the Almighty True Knowledge is imprisoned in a cage' and chants a spell to attack him as a sign of this.
My beliefs are sincere.]
[3. He rolled his eyes and replied, ‘Bright stars? The Lord doesn’t care.’]
Lin Xun estimated that ordinary people would be shocked by the power of the "bright stars" in the altar after entering the illusion.
Then most of the stargazers in front of you will take this opportunity and invite you to join the pledge camp of the 'Bright Stars'.
Previous customers in the clinic, or the president of the Polyvision Association, should have followed this process.
And he is an oathbreaker. After switching to the oath of the 'Almighty True Knowledge', he can no longer join the 'Bright Stars', so the stargazers in front of him become angry.
Of the three options in front of him, due to the above reasons, the first option has been excluded by him.
The only remaining options are the second option of toughness, and the third option... humiliation?
From this point of view, the second and third options may both be at odds.
Lin Xun's mind changed rapidly.
It's hard to say how powerful this stargazer is.
He only saw the power of the "Bright Stars" after entering the "Altar of Stars". Before entering the altar, he didn't feel any divine power.
Judging from this, the problem most likely lies with the Altar of the Stars.
The stargazers may be the missionaries who use the effect of the altar to demonstrate the power of the stars and win people over for the 'Bright Stars' pledge camp.
As for whether its strength is strong or weak, won't you know if you try it?
