[Comprehensive British and American] Welcome to Arkham's Infinite Journey

third night 26

After Sephiroth activated the formation, a cloud of mist rose around the entire periphery of Gotham City, including Arkham Island.

These out-of-the-box clouds and mists wrapped Gotham City in groups, temporarily isolating it from the world and forming a world of its own.

Even if the satellite is turned on at this time, the location where Gotham City was originally located is nothing but clouds that cannot go around.

This scene is very similar to when the main god gradually transformed Gotham City into a copy, but the initiative is in the hands of Sephiroth.

Seeing Sephiroth's extremely relaxed appearance, Master Gu Yi couldn't help admiring, "It's really a very powerful existence."

To be able to support such a huge energy supply by himself alone, and it looks very relaxed, without any reluctance.

The most important thing is that Sephiroth can really "control" this formation, and there is no loss of control.

This can be seen from the changes that have taken place in Gotham City.

For those who stay in Gotham today, they don't notice any problems.

If someone picks up the phone and wants to communicate with the outside world, he will find that the phone can't be reached.

But it's completely different for players.

Those players who escaped the arrest of the Gotham City police and have been played like a mouse by the underworld in Gotham City felt something was wrong while walking on the road.

Those gangsters who are like vicious cats have disappeared, as if they have really been successfully thrown off by them.

On the contrary, the street, which was already quiet enough, became more and more dead silent.

The silence was disturbing.

And in such a dead silence, at some point, a series of footsteps suddenly appeared.

A string of footsteps that closely matched his walking frequency.

At first glance, I couldn't tell whether it was a series of footsteps or my own illusion.

But as time goes on, another string of footsteps becomes more and more apparent, until...

Players can no longer ignore it.

A pale hand stretched out from the darkness, grabbing straight at the player's shoulder.

After the nervous players were silently grabbed by the shoulders, many of them screamed in fright, or turned around and swung the weapons in their hands.

This of course caused some harm to other players in the same industry, but players didn't have much time to entangle with this problem.

because……

They found that there was another person behind each person.

The other was pale, as if living in a dark environment all year round...

Yourself.

With the same face, the same dress, the same habits.

It's just that the color of the opponent's eyes is extremely light, only a little black in the middle of the pupil, and his skin is extremely pale, so white that it makes people feel uncomfortable.

When there was no way for these "duplicates" to exist before, there was no problem, but it became more and more impossible to ignore.

But when the player turns around and sees another "self", the group of replicas that emerged from the darkness will have a weird and intrusive smile on their faces, and then say, "You finally saw me."

"I've been with you for a long time."

"do you like me?"

Similar to this kind of horror movie scene, it makes people feel scalp numb.

Obviously, these players were relentless when they killed the "NPC", but when faced with this kind of "supernatural event", each of them showed more fear than the other.

To the point of losing all composure.

As a matter of course, an extremely fierce battle took place between the players and their "copies".

Scary though, these "duplicates" may appear to be very fragile and easy to kill.

But they don't really die.

It seems that no matter how they are destroyed, they will not lose their "life".

Still extremely persistent in wanting to follow behind the player, and then...

Do everything possible to eat the player.

They said, "Just eat you and I can be you."

"We're really alike, aren't we?"

"We were originally the same person."

"Let me eat it... let me eat it..."

After the appearance of these "replicas", the players who were originally lingering couldn't even maintain the last line of psychological defense, and suddenly collapsed.

Many players chose to kill themselves on the spot after discovering that these replicas could not be killed at all.

However, what is desperate is that the "resurrection" ability given by the Lord God still exists.

And after their resurrection, these terrible replicas still follow behind them.

After many players found that they really couldn't get rid of the replicas, they gradually lost their sanity and became more and more crazy.

At this moment, they looked more like a madman than a patient in Arkham.

Many players even laughed and stayed where they were, watching the replicas eat themselves little by little.

I didn't feel any pain, I just looked at my body and it disappeared little by little.

Even if the legs are eaten, they still seem to exist and can "stand" on the ground.

Like a fun game.

But it can squeeze the few remaining psychological defense lines of the players to collapse, despair, and madness.

Some soft-hearted people, looking at the miserable conditions of these "players", couldn't help feeling a little pity.

For example, some newcomers to the Gotham City Police from other regions.

It's just that this mercy has not yet been implemented. Just as he was about to step forward to help, he found himself the target of these players' attacks.

When he was rescued, he was ruthlessly ridiculed by his colleagues.

Gotham City is a pretty crazy place.

Here lies a horde of terrific super criminals.

These super-criminals may have tragic pasts, but they're also capable of the darkest crimes.

Mercy to the wicked is cruelty to the innocent.

There is no need to "empathize" with the criminal, it is meaningless.

These players were eventually "eaten" by their own replicas.

And all the players who were "eaten" finally got what they wanted, and they don't need to be resurrected again.

As for the players who were controlled by the police, their luck was much better, and there was no "replica" following them.

What happened outside made this group of players who were not at peace in their hearts and were still active in thinking about killing the police, all of them became much more at ease.

Especially, when a player escaped successfully, stepped out of the police station, and a "replica" appeared behind him.

The appearance of the replica directly frightened the fleeing players to turn around and get back into the game, unwilling to leave again no matter what.

Time continues to pass.

The closer to the original timeline, the point where Sephiroth destroyed the world, the more clearly Doctor Strange remembered.

He described very clearly and accurately all that happened after the appearance of the same god of war, Ares.

When he said these "things that have happened", Wonder Woman has remained silent.

Since Wonder Woman came to Arkham with other superheroes and knew the cause and effect of the world's imminent destruction, she has kept such silence.

What Doctor Strange said was very serious and clear, and Sephiroth also kept every point in his mind, and at the same time accurately controlled the formation.

So after Ares, the god of war, tore the space rift and came to Gotham from the world of the main god, there appeared a scene that he himself could not understand.

because……

God of War Ares also encountered the same situation as other players.

And this replica of Ares, the god of war, looks very...spiritual.

Who would have imagined that a real man like Ares, God of War, would show resentment, shyness, or affectionate eyes, and say, "You have finally discovered my existence." What about such words?

Ares, who appeared on the sea, was not well at the time.

After staring blankly at his replica for a while, he jumped up on the spot and wanted to slap the replica to death.

However, the replica of Ares, the god of war, is not an ordinary existence.

Strengthened by Sephiroth, the copy of Ares is also extremely powerful.

After Ares slapped the person into the sea with a slap, the replica quickly emerged from the sea and continued to look at Ares with that accusing look.

Ares: "..."

Ares exploded, and all the hair on his body exploded, "Say! What the hell are you! Are you Hermes? No, that's a coward, he doesn't have the courage!

"You can't be something made by Apollo or Athena...

"Maybe you are a prank by that little guy, God of Love... I know that little guy, God of Love, is lawless. If I find out where he is, Aphrodite will have no way to protect him this time!"

Ares was so angry that he almost lost his mind and treated his replica mercilessly.

And his replica is not completely just able to be beaten, he quickly learned to resist in the constant beating, and every move is the same as Ares.

Ares quickly discovered this, and became even more angry and ruthless.

During the fight between the two, blazing flames continued to fall from the sky, and the sea was burned by the flames like boiling hot water.

Even though there were layers of fog in the middle, everyone on Arkham Island could still feel the huge energy coming wave after wave, and the surrounding air seemed to be getting hotter.

An indescribable coercion, suffocating.

However, Sephiroth didn't seem to feel it at all, and still maintained the input of power, constantly providing energy for the growth of the Ares replica.

He was like a bystander, quietly watching the battle between Ares and the replica.

The battle lasted for a long time on the sea.

The two fought for three days and three nights. After finding out that there was no way to kill the replica, Ares swallowed it into his stomach in a rage.

All the spectators were frightened by Ares' move.

But Wonder Woman didn't even change her eyes.

As the others looked at her, Wonder Woman relaxed her shoulders, and she looked much more relaxed than she had initially been.

"In Greek mythology, things like this are common."

Others thought about it. In Greek mythology, many of the god-king Zeus and his brothers and sisters were swallowed by the father of the previous generation of god-king.

Even Zeus himself swallowed his first wife, Metis.

Athena still popped out of Zeus's head.

and so……

Thinking about it this way, seeing Ares swallow a copy of himself, it seems... indeed...

There's nothing wrong with that either.

After getting rid of the obtrusive replica, Ares finally has time to do business.

However, there was a fog around him, and he didn't know where he was on Arkham Island, let alone Sephiroth.

So Ares yelled directly.

"Sephiroth!"

His voice spread out like waves, shaking the entire sea area howling and turbulent.

The people standing in Arkham couldn't maintain their balance at all, let alone other ordinary people.

Sephiroth's eyes darkened, and he snorted softly.

The original formation changed accordingly, and all the fog was dissipating.

And dissipated together, and all the power in the body.

At this moment, everyone including Ares became...

Ordinary people.

At the moment of discovering this, no one with magical powers can remain calm except ordinary people.

Only Mage Ancient One once again stared at Sephiroth with that silent and amazed—no, not only amazed, but in awe—eyes.

Sephiroth also had no intention of explaining to others, so he walked out with the authenticity in hand.

Master Gu Yi stopped everyone who wanted to follow.

"I think we'd better stay away."

Others were puzzled: "Didn't Sephiroth become an ordinary person like us?"

Master Gu Yi shook his head, "Of course he is the same as us, but... I think it's better to stay away from him when everyone loses their strength."

Especially when Sephiroth clearly wants to kill Ares.

Counting the dozens of people present, Sephiroth is probably the one who can fight the best and the one with the best physical fitness when all of them have become ordinary people.

In fact, as Master Gu Yi said, facing Ares who had become an ordinary person, Sephiroth cut the back of his knife to the point where he couldn't take care of himself.

The next set of combos almost knocked Ares out of his mind.

Ares doesn't even have the strength to shout, so he can only be slaughtered, and at the same time he keeps trying to establish contact with the main god.

However, at the same time that Sephiroth deprived the entire Gotham City of the mysterious power, the Lord God's invasion plan had failed, and the entrance to the Infinite World opened to Gotham City was also closed.

At the same time, those players who did not come here with their real bodies disappeared at the same time.

Ares, who was left behind, was helpless, defeated in a daze, and hadn't figured out what happened.

After Sephiroth was refreshed, he threw Ares to Arkham Island, and stepped on the shoulder of Ares who had no resistance.

Sephiroth smiled, "Welcome to Arkham, I have reserved a bed here for you."
