Chapter 113, Destruction of projection


Chapter 113, Destruction of Projection

After Gritte finished speaking, Gu Hang raised a key question: "How to defeat it? Do we want to defeat a primitive psychic creature that has become a god?"

"No, it's not to that point." Garrett continued to explain, "I noticed that it is still some distance away from tearing the curtain of reality and truly recovering. If nearly a million people in the entire Fuxing City really died tragically in the storm , so many spiritual reactions that reverberate through the ritual space that it is truly possible to pull it out of hell.”

"But at the level close to the real universe, it still needs an anchor point. Its eight spiritual incarnations are here. What we need to eliminate are these spiritual incarnations, in a soul-to-soul manner. A strong spirit is The key to defeating it.”

……

Gu Hang probably understood what Garuit meant.

Although I talked about some very awkward things, it has something to do with the underlying logic of the entire world. He found some answers from his past memories.

In the process of learning as a legal psyker, you can learn that under the entire real universe, psykers believe that there is an illusory universe filled with pure energy and no matter, where the real universe is considered to be born. is the bottom layer of the universe, also known as the 'real universe'.

According to speculation, humans in the golden age tens of thousands of years ago mastered advanced technology and properly utilized the energy of the real universe. Endless energy gave birth to a brilliant civilization.

All this ended after the birth of 'Hell'.

The so-called ‘hell’ is the place where all waste energy that cannot be utilized or is emitted after utilization gathers. There is madness, destruction, and chaos.

Today's psychic scholars generally believe that the current real universe is roughly divided into two levels. The astral world is superficial, a sea of ​​available psychic energy. The spiritual network built by the God-Emperor supports the entire spiritual world, allowing safe psykers to be born among humans, and allowing spiritual energy to be used as advanced energy.

Of course, the theological societies of the Anglican Church do not think so. In their theory, the so-called spiritual network is the divine kingdom established by the emperor after his ascension. The Emperor blesses humanity in this world in his kingdom. People should have complete faith in the Emperor and return their souls to the Kingdom of God after death to achieve transcendence.

The Mechanical Cult also has their own theories, which I won’t list for now.

But no matter how controversial it is, in the end, spiritual energy comes from the spiritual world, and the ascended emperor protects humans.

But hell still exists, filled with disordered, chaotic, crazy, and destructive energy.

According to Garrett, the 'Original Angry Owl' was characterized as some kind of powerful psychic creature, and it fell into hell for unknown reasons. Now, it is about to complete its arrival due to the rituals of the cultists, tearing open the curtain of the real universe.

Among the eight wind farms, there are eight incarnations of the Angry Owl, which are essentially eight spiritual projections projected by the original Angry Owl, tearing open a small opening in the real universe, allowing a crazy psychic storm to sweep through it. come out.

As long as in the spiritual realm, killing these eight Angry Owl projections is equivalent to completely ending the reorganization of the Angry Owl incarnation, preventing the original Angry Owl from coming, and completely solving the storm problem.

How to kill these angry owl projections?

"Just touch the hole." Garrett gave a very specific solution and further explained, "I just wanted to see the source, so... if I just challenged the projection, it wouldn't be like this. .”

Oh, it turns out you are still reckless.

"The projection incarnation here, has it been solved?"

"No..." Garrett was a little embarrassed, "After I was injured, I no longer have enough mental strength to destroy the projection."

Oh, after all the recklessness, I no longer have the energy to do serious business.

Isn’t it still the same as giving it for free?

Gu Hang took a deep breath and decided...

"I'll do it." Pastor Rizzo stepped forward, "Is it just a touch?"

"Yes." Gritte replied, "As long as you don't go deeper and just destroy the monster."

"Okay."

Pastor Rizzo reached out and touched the hollow.

After a while, he took his hand off. He looked a little listless and weak, but his voice sounded very relaxed: "The mission has been fulfilled."

As he finished speaking, Gu Hang could clearly see that the hole began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappeared.

Gu Hang was overjoyed!

The dawn is just around the corner!

"We are rushing to the other seven wind farms now! We have less than three hours, and there is still time!"

Looking at the excited Governor, the pastor sighed and poured cold water on him.

"Your Majesty the Governor," Rizzo said, "I'm afraid things are not as simple as we thought."

"How to say?"

"It's much more difficult to project the soul to the spiritual level to fight than I imagined. Defeating that monster won't cost me much, but going back and forth will make people's spirits overwhelmed. In a short time, I have no choice. Do it again. Otherwise, just projecting the soul is enough to knock me unconscious and I will need at least two days of rest to recover."

Everyone has two days left to CD after entering the spiritual copy?

Gu Hang looked at Gerrit.

"I am in a similar situation."

Rizzo continued to add: "Being able to withstand the pressure of soul projection requires an extremely strong spirit. Even the nuns and sisters of the Holy Mercy Lily will be very dangerous. Only us phoenixes here can withstand it. .”

As soon as these words came out, the sisters of Holy Mercy Lily were not convinced.

Several people stood up:

"We can!"

"The will of the Holy Mercy Lily is by no means weaker than that of the Space Marines!"

"Leave it to us!"

They were excited and felt humiliated.

But Rizzo didn't mean to use provocation at all, and even Gritte next to him fell silent at this time.

Gu Hang saw all this and recognized that Rizzo's words were true.

The head nun is a reckless person. If she is sure, she will not remain silent.

Obviously, it was precisely because she also believed that ordinary battle nuns would have a narrow escape from death by doing this thing, so she kept silent.

She had already lost a battle sister in the previous battle.

Gu Hang couldn't help but look at Martins, and made his request directly: "Captain, I need your help."

Martins did not shirk, "It is the duty of the Phoenix to fight for the Emperor, destroy the fallen psychic creatures, and save the Imperial world!"

Phoenix is ​​still very reliable!

What plan I had at the beginning to vacate the cage and replace the bird was simply too inhumane.

But... there are only seven phoenixes.

This is also a problem.

Rizzo has already spent his time here. There are still six phoenixes left, but there are seven wind farms to deal with.

Gerrit looked a little ashamed. If she still has fighting power, she can solve one problem and this problem won't be a problem.

Or, if she dares to sacrifice herself, one nun can't handle it, but there are ten of them. Taking turns, they can always defeat the power of a projection. But if she really had to make this decision, she was a little hesitant.

However, Gu Hang did not make it difficult for her: "I will deal with one myself."

"That's too dangerous," Pastor Rizzo advised.

Gu Hang waved his hand, his mind made up.

Moreover, he felt that if he went to fight in the purely spiritual realm, he, a psyker, might be stronger than the Phoenix warriors.

Subsequently, the personnel divided into many teams and began to rush to the other seven wind farms.

In addition to Rizzo, the three phoenixes present rushed to three places; the nuns also accompanied them in separate teams as backup supplements; the other three phoenixes in the city, headed by the bald man Schneider, also received orders and went there Three other places.

Their actions were not accompanied by ordinary troops.

Purbov and his team were ordered by Gu Hang to go to the city to help and obey the deployment of Yan Fangxu and Oceana.

The remaining Space Marines and Sisters can move forward at full speed. With the help of power armor, they stride forward in the wind and rain, not much slower than a car.

The direction Gu Hang was heading was the farthest one among the seven power plants.

The reason for this distribution is because he can fly and is the fastest.

Whether it was due to bad luck or being targeted, he was struck by lightning twice during his flight.

But nothing happened.

Before the lightning struck, he had noticed the abnormal gathering of spiritual energy through his spiritual vision and dodged it in advance.

After he arrived at his destination, the soldiers stationed there were bombing around the increasingly large number of angry owl incarnations in the huge crater left by the orbital bombing.

Gu Hang's previous strategy had worked.

Many troops that originally came here according to Yan Fangxu's order encountered resistance from the cultists here. The quantity and quality of the cultists are not particularly large. As long as they spend some time, the soldiers should be able to defeat the enemy. The next step is to blast the wind farm, which is not a big problem.

But during the fight, they received new orders and broke away from the battle.

The cultists didn't chase them out either.

Their mission is to protect the wind farm, and even if it cannot be defended, it must be delayed as long as possible. Even if the enemy's retreat seemed strange, they were more happy than confused.

Then, happily, they ushered in the orbital bombing.

The bombing method on the Quintet followed the governor's order and carried out 7×3 bombings with minimum yield. Instead of using the huge main macro cannon and light spear array, only the secondary auxiliary guns were used.

But the effect of exploding on the ground is still terrifying.

The direct damage range of the bombing exceeded half a kilometer, and the shock wave still had lethality one kilometer away. Even if the army retreated to a theoretically safe position almost two kilometers away from the target location, it could still feel the violent shock.

Some houses on the edge of the city were blown down.

Fortunately, most people now go to various food distribution points to queue up to receive food, so there should not be many casualties.

When they rushed back after seeing the residual heat that was being washed away by rain and rapidly dissipating after the three bombings, the wind farm was long gone. The incarnation of the angry owl that is supposed to appear is working hard to reorganize.

Needless to say, the bombardment began. The incarnation of Angry Owl, which had just been reorganized not long ago, was blown to pieces again.

In this way, maintaining the strategy of exploding as soon as it is reorganized, the incarnation of the Angry Owl here has become very miserable.

Until Gu Hang arrived.

He praised the troops present, and then obtained the latest situation through the communications troops in their ranks.

Good news has come from the other two places closest to the wind farm where Cui Kao was killed before.

Two Space Marines, including Chapter Master Martins, had completed the elimination of the original Angry Owl projections in both locations.

This is a good start and means the plan is going well.

Gu Hang no longer hesitated, stood up and reached out to touch the hole.

Suddenly, he felt palpitations in his heart, and a large fog appeared in front of his eyes.

This fog went away just as quickly as it came, disappearing in a few breaths. In front of his eyes, there appeared a diagonally downward, deep road with no end as far as the eye could see, and mist with endless colors was billowing.

Gu Hang could feel a strong sense of temptation, as if calling him to go on; at the same time, there was also a strong sense of fear, telling him that if he went on, he would face huge terror.

These two contradictory feelings were intertwined in his heart, and even caused him to lose consciousness for a moment.

A roar awoke him from his stupefied feeling of conflict.

Turning around, Gu Hang saw an illusory, two-person-high incarnation of an angry owl, showing off its power.

Just you, right?

Without saying a word, Gu Hang fired the Soul Cutting shot.

After the soul projection comes to this illusory spiritual realm, his spiritual energy can of course be used. Even closer to the spiritual world and even to hell, his spirituality has become more sensitive, and the psychic spells he can release have become stronger.

The monster had one of its legs cut off, and it suddenly lost its arrogance.

Strong will?

Perhaps the Battle Sisters and Space Marines do need this when they enter the spiritual realm to fight. If they want to fight fiercely with the incarnation of the terrifying Angry Owl here, the strength of their will determines the strength of their 'body'.

But psykers like Gu Hang don't need it. When he comes here, he relies on his spiritual attributes to fight. All his psionic spells can work normally and are stronger.

Gu Hang can cut through the immortal angry owl's projection with one strike of psychic energy, but it doesn't matter, he will do it one by one.

Less spiritual consumption, greater spiritual power... If he continues in this manner, he can fire a hundred swords. In other words, he could project this angry owl to Ling Chi for execution.

In fact, the guy didn't even have the strength to sustain the fifteen blows, and he was cut into countless pieces without even touching the corner of Gu Hang's clothes.

There was another heavy fog in front of him. When the fog cleared, Gu Hang saw the real world in front of him.

It was at this time that he felt a strong sense of fatigue.

When he left the spiritual realm, his soul was torn apart. Injury doesn't count, but if you enter that place again in a short period of time, you may really be seriously injured when you leave.

He had a clear understanding. This should be what Garrett said, the price of projecting the soul into the pure spiritual realm.

Fortunately, the price will be paid when you come out. If you pay when you enter, with the Weakness debuff and the projection of an angry owl, the difficulty will be much higher.
