Chapter 1258 Killing Prophecy, Arcane Empire Continued
Generally speaking, most prompt information has a reference source. In other words, if the information is not obtained in advance, no prompt can be made.
If so, it can be called a "prophecy".
Continuing to sense, Xia Duo not only sensed what was to be done next in the oracle, he also further sensed more content, involving the overall content of the prophecy.
Different from Cliff's interpretation of "the prosperous blooming season, deep in the ruins of dreams, the crimson brave man took away the power of death", the prophecy interpreted by Chateau is——
"In the entangled time, deep in the bright nebula, the messenger of killing holds the power of life and death."
Chateau told Cliff the prophecy he had interpreted, but Cliff was not surprised. Instead, he said: "The oracles are interpreted differently by different people, so don't worry about these details."
Xia Duo nodded. Indeed, the interpretation of oracles is actually the same as the interpretation of doctrines. The same doctrine (oracle, holy power) ultimately derives different schools of ideas.
If you want to truly unify your thoughts and connotations, even if the Lord of Glory explains it in person, it may not be able to work.
Leaving aside some people who actually believe in themselves, even true believers will have their own unique opinions on doctrines and concepts, which are even beyond the belief in the Lord of Glory itself.
To use a very popular saying on earth to describe it, that is "I love my teacher, but I love the truth even more"!
Xia Duo didn't struggle with this issue for too long. Anyway, he had already been prompted on what to do next, and this was enough.
…
Following the feeling in his heart, Xia Duo walked among the stars, and soon came to a point of light that was extremely dim and looked as if it was about to go out.
"Sir Cliff, this is it!"
Cliff and Thorn also followed Shado here. At the same time, they also noticed this dim light spot, which meant that this projection plane could disappear at any time.
Seeing this scene, a hint of anxiety suddenly appeared in Cliff's eyes, but he still calmed down and reminded Xia Duo: "Next, I'll trouble Lord Xia Duo."
Xia Duo knew that he had to leave this time, but just when he was about to touch the light spot, he suddenly stopped and asked again:
"Your Excellency Cliff, Mr. Thorne, will you also enter this projection plane?"
"I won't." Thorne replied simply and indifferently.
"I can't, this projection plane can't bear the two people coming at the same time." Cliff quickly answered Shado's question, and couldn't help but urge: "Lord Shado, you must hurry up!"
"Um."
Xia Duo responded, then poked his finger at the special light point guided by the prophecy oracle.
"boom--"
The mental impact was far more intense than when using the Tower of Time plane to explore the array projection. Countless memories suddenly poured into my mind, and even various sensory information appeared together.
For a moment, Xia Duo felt as if he had become another person, a high-level mage named "Mecard", a remnant of the Arcane Empire, and an elite judge of the resistance organization [Department of Revenge and Trial].
"Damn it! Cliff didn't say that entering the projection plane from the star realm would accept all the memories at once!"
Fortunately, Xia Duo was no stranger to such a state and had a relatively complete coping mechanism. He quickly observed the surrounding environment and found that it was a place similar to a ward.
At the same time, a memory suddenly came to mind. It was a recent incident that happened to "McCard" before Sha Duo came -
The operation was ambushed, and he barely managed to escape to a temporary shelter, where he fainted.
Now that Xia Duo is here, he blindly guessed that there might be a betrayer around him. Otherwise, how could he have been ambushed?
But at this moment, for him, the more urgent problem than finding the betrayer is to solve the memory of "McCard" that suddenly emerged.
…
Suffering from both physical and mental discomfort, Xia Duo blessed himself with an 8-level protection spell [Protection from Energy Damage], and added a [Force Field Barrier] to the hospital bed where he was currently lying.
These two spells are common spells that he is very familiar with and proficient in. The 9th level is indeed more powerful, but in such a poor mental state, if you forcefully cast a spell that you are not very proficient in, you will directly play yourself if you make a mistake.
If you die, that would be so funny.
However, in "Mecard's" memory, the companions who retreated to this temporary shelter with him only had access to the fifth level of the magic network at most, and the two 8-level spells were relatively safe.
Those people never expected that in just a short time, "McCard" would have transformed from an ordinary high-level mage to a senior arcanist.
"There shouldn't be any problem!"
But no matter what, after barely casting two 8-level spells, he no longer had the energy to do anything else. Moreover, if the memory problem was not solved, he was worried that it would affect the stability of his personality.
In the meditative state, Xia Duo began to regulate his subconscious and conscious thoughts while retracing his memories. He directly traced back (in his own time) to the personality state that he had backed up during daily meditation training one month ago before setting off from the main plane.
Then we traced back from that time point, and there were no abnormalities in the period before entering the projection plane.
Until he entered the [Projection Plane·Arcane Empire Continued] and incarnated as "Mecard". Different from the normal exploration of the array projection with the help of the wizard tower plane, this time a large number of memories continued to pour in.
The impact of foreign memories on one's own personality is that it changes the subconscious mind little by little.
In layman's terms, some information is automatically marked as "trusted files" by his subconscious. As these "trusted files" accumulate, they automatically combine into a "virus"-like existence, which is different from his normal
Personality, and patterns of thinking and behavior that interfere with his normal personality.
Although this will not turn Shado into "McCard" all of a sudden, under the contamination of "McCard"'s memory, he is no longer the person he is in his self-perception.
While the current self-understanding is still "Xia Duo", Xia Duo must solve this problem as soon as possible.
…
Because he had experience in cleaning up drow memory pollution in the [Projection Plane·Dark Area], Shado was actually not particularly worried about the current situation.
After all, "Mecard" is also a human being, and compared to the hundreds of years of drow memory, it really pales into insignificance.
What he has to do now is to temporarily ignore the automatic judgments made by his subconscious mind in the past, and use his past "backup personality" to make active judgments again.
All this is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, almost as much as re-experience the experience after entering the projection plane, and it is also the kind of detailed information, including all the information from all angles of perception, including the normal five senses, the magic network, and even intuition.
A full month!
Even if the conscious perception of time is much faster than the real time, it will still take a long time to complete this huge project.
