because i am stel

Everyone's happy - but Miss Steele knows that in Dark Souls, the most powerful boss in the High Wall area is called the Dancer of Cold Hollow.It is the descendant of the Lothric royal family who was given the Pope's eye pupil ring and became a berserker who obeyed his orders.And if it follows the normal and logical development, the game does not give a definite answer.That is, this cursed and domesticated princess will bring betrayal and killing when she passes through the high wall.This led to the fall of the high border wall and the spread of the war.

[Pope Sullivan is the bearer of the pot of the black soul at this time. 】

[The difference between him and Shi Chen is that these pots should really be placed on top of his head. 】

The girl thought to herself, she cast her eyes on the Lenglie Valley where the Archdiocese of the Baijiao is located, originally wanting to see who is the sacred Sullivan in this world.But when he approached the snow-stained city, he was blocked by a barrier again.It's like looking at the radar shielded area when looking at the real map. Although you can roughly guess what is in that area, you can't see the specific details clearly.

[I remember, in the game.Cold Valley is covered by enchantment. 】

Miss Stelter thought about it, but she felt that it was more likely to be a natural problem caused by her development of this new ability, which had not yet reached the point of qualitative change.

[The perception I have should be higher than the magic of the soul world, higher than the soul and fire, higher than all existing systems in the dream world.Because I can travel through the dream world, and so far, I have personally experienced an encounter close to the same kind in the world of godslayers. 】

The matter of mentioning Vat, because Persephone has already taken over, so I will ignore it for the time being-but when she thinks of mentioning Vat, she feels that since Persephone mentioned contact with the Warhammer world.Then she might also have a way to let herself see the follow-up of the Tivat continent after she left.

So, the girl lowered her eyes—there was no eyelids, but she pretended to lower her eyes.

She decided to postpone the entry 'Contact Experiment' for now.After excluding that data, she felt that the information she currently had was enough for Persephone to analyze.

[Haste makes waste, I don't need to solve all the problems at once. 】

【After all, there are still six days left before the official exploration of the dream world, and I believe that even if Persephone can't make a result that satisfies her.At least, it can also provide me with some help. 】

[Then... let's go back.The data collection this time comes to an end here. 】

The girl made a decision.

She took one last look at the fire-proof woman—the woman in the black dress was still kneeling and praying in ignorance when she decided to go back.She wanted to touch her a little bit, touch her skirt or hair but finally blocked her way.Her ideals and habits restrained her from doing such unladylike things.

[It's so strange, when did I become a lady? 】

Miss Shirtle, casually flashed a thought from the depths of her mind.

And at the same moment when this thought was finished, the girl lying on the bed opened her eyes at the new research center of Chernobog on the land of Terra.

..............................

15 minute later.

"The basic situation is like this." While biting the ice cream supplemented with sugar, Miss Stelter told the doctor about her experience and gains from exploring the edge of the dream world.She kept no secrets, nor disturbed the sequence between secret and truth.

A little hungry, but not serious.

"I can observe the next dream world through the door. But the ability of this observation is obviously limited at least for now. The fineness is not enough, and it is impossible to cross the barrier that lacks dead ends or loopholes."

"It still needs to be developed." She said, "But at least I can be sure that the next dream world should be Dark Souls. This can be regarded as a remarkable progress... It has been a great help. Persephone."

She stuffed ice cream in two or three bites, then picked up a scone.

"Observing from across the world..." Polsephone held her chin, and could intuitively see that her brain was operating in a way with a very high load.She pondered over the words, but the answer she gave was affirmative.

"If you can observe, you can interfere. If you can interfere, you can control—Sirtel. The potential of your power to explore the dream world is huge. It seems that we have found the right research direction. Unfortunately, this There is no possibility of in-depth sharing for the time being.”

"How?" The scones were finished, and they moved on to the petits fours and fruit tarts.

"Well, I speculate that the reason why you can see the world tree is because you are the holder of the power, and the second is because your self-awareness makes you think that the tree should appear there-I judge that the world is in the When it exists as an observable independent unit. It should have no conceptual shape. In other words, the reason why you see the world as the fruit on the tree. It is because you have made the world you perceive Define them and recognize them as the appearance of fruits."

"This is your privilege, but I'm not you. So I can't recognize what the world looks like. And my consciousness can only interrupt the link before spying on the portal. I can't go any further." Persephone, lightly Breathe out softly: "This is kind of interesting, Sturtle. You've given me a real problem."

"You don't seem depressed?" The small cake was eaten one by one, and the fruit tart was finished in two.Soon, the supper that was enough for ten people disappeared.

"I'm very happy." Persephone snapped her fingers.So multiple drones came to her side with more desserts. "Because I've finally hit a puzzle that leaves me helpless, but not hopeless. I feel like I'm on fire—well, Stuart, are you so hungry?"

"Well, it's a little hypoglycemic—" Stelter replied casually.She reached out to grab a sandwich.

She didn't catch it.The feeling of weakness overwhelmed her the moment she realized this fact—she subconsciously wanted to support Levantine who was floating by her side.And the moment her fingertips touched the blade, she felt that the whole world was spinning.

The darkness engulfed her when Persephone slapped the table anxiously and flew towards her.

There is only one session today_(:з」∠)_

Because the invincible 42 fell down_(:з」∠)_

Chapter 170: Extraordinary out of control

what happened?

what did she do?

Why, did it become like this?

Persephone's fingers flinched just before they touched Sylter's body, and the extreme warning from the depths of her heart made her slide back reflexively—she backed away, and the wall was behind her. Shattered under the impact of the back.She raised her head abruptly, and stared at the flaming-haired girl who was quietly leaning on the armchair but her eyes were lost.A certain familiar feeling flooded into her sea of ​​consciousness world.

She remembers this feeling.

A few years ago, he was killed [-] times in a row by Shirtel, and he was about to usher in his last death.Her body and soul remembered the feeling.

It was as if a volcano was about to erupt before her eyes, the fuze of a nuclear bomb was being activated, the fury of the sky was pouring out, and the tide of the earth was surging—she remembered this feeling, and she remembered when she was removed from No. 30 A moment of dragging out of death.When he returned to the world, he saw a wilderness as smooth as a mirror.

She remembered that before the decisive battle, the wilderness was once a dense forest.To kill the self at that time, there is absolutely no need to destroy the natural environment in such a big way.

She remembered that at the moment of her last death, what she saw in her eyes were the same dull and light crimson eyes.

She smelled death.

"Steel?" she asked softly.

There was no response, and the flaming-haired girl leaning on the seat didn't say a word.But that head of bright red hair is more bright red than before.

Feeling more and more uneasy, she subconsciously wanted to touch the dagger she was carrying with her - she had always carried and only needed to carry this weapon.However, the moment her finger was about to touch the edge of the dagger, the omen of death became more and more intense!

- Can't touch it!

- Do not touch weapons!

——Do not show even a little hostility subjectively or objectively!

A realization burst out in her heart.And if this intuition points to be true.Then it only means a fact at this moment.

When did showing hostility lead to retaliation?

When will Shirtel indiscriminately attack all suspicious targets around him, regardless of enemy or friend?

——She just went through an experiment to deeply explore her own power.

—she had just done something beyond all his previous experience, never tried.

——Her strength, her ability to explore other worlds is too consumed, and now... she has no way to maintain her consciousness!

——That's why she subconsciously wanted to supplement and recover.Because she didn't know that her heart was failing, she just instinctively added food that was of no use to her!

With a clear understanding in my heart, all the causes and effects, large and small details are spliced ​​and reorganized in Persephone's cognition.And constructing in her mind an outcome that at least mostly could be classified as correct - she breathed a sigh of relief and moved her hand away from her belt.Go slowly and take your steps.The girl on the chair remained silent.

She found that Miss Steele was fast asleep.

It's not so ripe, it can even be said to be overripe - no longer breathing, not even blood flowing.She could perceive the energy tide in the girl's body that was still as vast as the abyss of heaven.But he didn't notice any fluctuations belonging to the living body in the girl's body.

Something bad.

No, not somewhat, but very badly!

Because Persephone knew how the human body worked.Know that most of the glands and organs in the human body - heart, liver, spleen, kidney, lung, all need to rely on the brain, which is driven by deep consciousness.And if the consciousness body stops functioning completely, then the human body will be like a corpse!

A corpse!

Then, a corpse that is clearly alive but looks like a dead body.When the cells in her body are at risk of failure due to incapacity.Will this extraordinary body, which is no longer under control, operate autonomously because of the needs of survival?

Or to put it more intuitively, when her body feels 'insecure' due to the lack of a dominator.Would this body, this extraordinary divine body, think it was under attack?

To be dealt with by this world, by everything that has quality in this world?

--That's too late.

She closed her eyes gently.

"Emergency protocol activated, all Rhode Island employees, mandatory teleportation to security point four," she said.

And the moment she opened her eyes, she saw the girl's body on the chair dissolving and her shell breaking.And the endless blazing molten fire immediately gushed out and swallowed her!

Destruction has come.

At the moment when the tide of destruction submerged her, the red and black giant sword carried by Miss Stelter blocked in front of the girl doctor, allowing her to seize the opportunity to escape successfully—the Originium skill immediately After the operation, the girl's figure appeared in the outer sky of the research center in the form of spatial displacement.And at the same instant, the scientific research building turned into magma and boiled and melted!

The ground trembled, and sirens blared throughout Chernobog.With the research center as the burst point, all material structures within a radius of one kilometer were completely melted under extremely high heat.Accompanied by roars and explosions, a fiery red and translucent volcano burst out of the ground, and countless fiery fluid flesh and blood like roots extended from the volcano's surroundings!

—It is defending itself.

- It considers 'itself' necessary to defend itself.

—Is there anything to stop it?

Persephone avoided the first wave of impact, and drove his versatile Originium skill to a higher place.She watched the city beneath her feet, watching the white city of the North burn to deathly crimson.

There is no need to count the casualties. At the moment when the Molten Mountain was born, all living things within a radius of three kilometers except for Persephone were wiped out in an instant—no one escaped, no one was distinguished from friend or foe, and the fluid root system penetrated The ground, melted and metalized into its own structure.Devouring the pavilion, all building materials are vaporized and then absorbed.And no matter whether an intelligent individual resists or not, his flesh and blood will be drained in an instant, and his spirit will be plundered like a mist.

No one can live.

Some people in the core city resisted, and they built a barrier of thought power or origin stone skills, but they were swallowed up by endless molten fire in an instant.

Chernobog, destroyed.The moving city has become a walking volcano.It was rooted on Terra like a festering and expanding sore on the surface of the earth.The inflated specifications did not slow down its growth but further accelerated the speed of the attack.The color of the sky turned red and black, and the hundreds of meters high tide of flames tore through the earth, surging wildly in any direction!

A city is destroyed.Perhaps soon a country too will be destroyed.And after that, the twilight of the world will fall.

No one can stop it, no one can resist it.Perhaps the black ocean can curb its expansion, but even if the deep sea really becomes an ally of intelligent life, there will be no living things on the land.

But Persephone watched.

Watching, watching, not letting go of any changes in details.

She saw something crucial.

——The initial direction of expansion is the core city.

——The core city doesn't have too many resources, nor does it have too many people... The only two important things are Chernobog's reactor and the placement of the sarcophagus.

——The route it travels is the cluster area of ​​the energy pipeline I designed.After it devoured the core city, it once stagnated for a short time... It felt safe in the high-energy area, no, it was the high-energy environment that misled her body.But by then, it had grown too large to tolerate such a small habitat.

"I have about 25 seconds to correct my mistakes."

she said, and drew her dagger from her belt.

Facing his right eye, he suddenly pierced.

..........................................

Time went back to the early morning, the moment before the start of the alien exploration experiment—Persephone deliberately chose this time point in order to use his ability to go back in time and space as an insurance.And when she opened her eyes, she happened to see Miss Stelter lying on the transformed bed just like before the experiment started.

"As I expected, my time-space reset cannot interfere with her state. This ability to explore other worlds is higher than my influence on the time-space structure of the Terra world."

She stretched out her hand, wanting to touch Shirtel lying beside her.However, as before, every nerve in the body was frantically firing alarms at the approach.

Sure enough, touching was impossible.

The idea of ​​wanting to be intimate with this red-haired thing when it can't move is really just wishful thinking.

So she had no choice but to stretch out her hand and press it against the bed under her.The still-universal Originium technology was activated immediately, resetting the conceptual hook and lock device that was directly connected to the sarcophagus.All the huge energy that is enough to support the operation of a mobile city is invested in this not-so-wide experimental area.

She always felt like she was missing something.

She did miss some things, too.

Just as the entire laboratory was being restructured under her will to acquire novel functions.

On the other side of Chernobog, in the medical center near the core city.Liz, who was in charge of guarding Kelsey at night, or the operator Nightingale tilted her head slightly.

Liz felt as if something was not quite right.

She turned her eyes and looked at Kelsey's side, beside the sleeping Miss Lynx, the presence of one thing suddenly became extremely obvious at this moment.

Her eyes widened suddenly.

This...this is!

"A severed hand?"

And the next moment, that hand with a neat fracture, a smooth appearance, and even a beautiful hand melted in her eyes!

Chapter 170: The True Lie

Die, die, die, die, die.

The moment she saw the severed hand showing signs of melting, Miss Liz felt that the world died five times at this moment.
