Chapter 131 Awakening Ceremony
Squeak -
accompanied by a sharp brake sound, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan stopped in front of them, and then a handsome man and a beautiful woman got out of the car.
The man had a calm face and held a black umbrella in his hand.
The girl under the umbrella had a smile on her face and a red brocade bag embroidered with birds tied around her waist.
"My lord!"
"Living Buddha!"
Two different voices were issued at the same time.
The second leader and the second leader looked at each other from a distance.
Invisible sparks burst out in the air, which was their dissatisfaction with each other for competing with them to be their lackeys.
"Enough." Wang Ran interrupted them, "Tell me the details."
He glanced into the building and saw Bai Fan squatting on the stairs with a strange look on his face.
He was a little puzzled, wondering what happened to Bai Fan?
After communicating with the Second Sect Leader and the others, his worldview changed a little?
"Living Buddha, I know a lot." Second Sect Leader winked and said, "Let me tell you, let me tell you!"
He was the Sect Leader before and knew a lot of secrets.
Wang Ran came back to his senses and nodded slightly.
Second Sect Leader introduced: "The awakening ceremony is actually to convey a message to the giant beast, telling it what the outside world has become, thereby prompting it to actively revive."
He paused.
Seeing that Wang Ran had no problem, he continued, "The difficulty of the ceremony lies in how to make the giant beast believe that we, bah bah bah, believe the anti-social garbage of the Apostles of Doom!"
Wang Ran asked doubtfully, "Is this difficult?"
Er said seriously, "Very difficult!" "
The giant beast fell asleep because it was seriously injured. It has a deep fear of the outside world. Only the most sincere heart can wake it up."
Wang Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "Go on."
Er sighed, "At first they wanted to use children aged four to six to wake up the giant beast, because children's hearts are the most sincere."
"But children don't understand anything and are easily scared."
"The beast didn't dare to revive because it was afraid. The children themselves were afraid, let alone expecting them to wake up the beast."
Wang Ran nodded slowly: "What happened later?"
"Later they found that even if the children were not afraid and the beast believed them, it would not be willing to revive."
"Because the children's understanding of the world was too superficial, they could not provide the beast with enough information."
Children feel safe, but they may not really be safe.
Wang Ran thought for a moment: "So in order to revive the beast, the person who wakes it up must be sincere and knowledgeable."
Er took the opportunity to flatter: "Living Buddha is wise!"
Wang Ran remained silent.
"Stop flattering me!" The leader of the sect, Er, glared at Er. "What else do you know? Tell me!"
Er said immediately, "Later, they came up with a solution, which is to connect the thinking of a child with the thinking of six adults."
"Use the thinking of the child as the main thing, and let him communicate with the giant beast; use the thinking of adults as a supplement, and provide the giant beast with the information it wants to know."
Wang Ran said in surprise, "Seven people put one brain together, will this work?"
Er said affirmatively, "It works!"
"They tried it once two years ago, and they woke the beast from deep sleep to shallow sleep. If they try it again, they can wake it up completely."
Wang Ran asked in confusion, "Why not wake it up twice in a row?"
Er sighed, "The burden of having information read is very heavy on the brain. People who participated in the ceremony died one after another after the ceremony. It takes time to gather the next wave of suitable people."
This... is a sacrifice, right?
Wang Ran frowned. According to the information he got from the simulator, Bai Fan's childhood sweetheart was one of the people sacrificed in the awakening ceremony.
He asked, "Do the people who participated in the last awakening ceremony know about this?"
"Yes, they all volunteered." Er paused, "Except for that child."
Wang Ran was silent.
Er hesitated, "In order to keep the child's heart pure, the Apostle of Doom will not tell the child any negative news. Before the child died, he thought the ceremony was just a game."
Wang Ran asked again, "It's not just that child who died, right?"
His voice was a little cold.
Yiya, who was holding his arm, also looked unhappy.
In addition to the successful awakening ceremony, there were many failed awakening ceremonies before. If a child aged four to six died in every ceremony,
the Apostle of Doom would be simply insane!
Er noticed that Wang Ran's tone was wrong.
He looked up at Wang Ran's face, then hurriedly distanced himself from the matter: "Living Buddha, I have been practicing on the island, and the matter here has always been the responsibility of that sick ghost."
"As for how many children were consumed,"
he answered carefully: "The experiment has been going on for five or six years, so there should be one or two hundred children."
Yiya frowned and said, "Where did so many children come from?"
Although she is also a member of the Apostles of the End, she has always been outside the shadow of the Apostles of the End, and she doesn't know what the Apostles of the End have done.
One or two hundred ignorant children...
Er didn't know who Yiya was, but he could see that Yiya had a close relationship with Wang Ran, and he secretly felt a strong threat of death from Yiya.
He answered Yiya's question nervously: "Most of them were bought from human traffickers, and the other part was adopted from orphanages."
Wang Ran sighed deeply.
The past is hard to recall.
When the Apostle of Doom used the child as an experiment, he had not yet traveled to this world.
All he could do was to prevent similar things from happening again.
He stopped asking about the child and instead asked about the method of destroying the awakening ceremony: "So as long as you scare the beast hard once, the beast will not revive?"
Erchi nodded dully: "In theory, this is the case, but when they awakened the beast before, they had already instilled a wave of information into the beast. Now if they want to deceive it again..."
Wang Ran turned his head and looked at Yi.
He deliberately picked a talent to improve credit for Yi, just to fool the beast.
Yi coughed lightly: "The ability that the Lord has given me is very magical. I am sure I can deceive the giant beast."
[Credit Loan]
[You can overdraw your credit for a period of time in the future in exchange for others' trust in you this time]
Although it is not clear what the consequences of overdrawing credit are, according to the description, this talent can gain the trust of the giant beast 100%.
Er hesitated and said: "It is not enough to just gain trust. The giant beast must also read the information in the brain. After reading the information, there is a great risk of brain death."
"I think it is better to kill all the apostles of the end of the world below, once and for all, which will be very easy for you."
Yiya looked at Wang Ran curiously.
In her perception, Wang Ran is just an ordinary person.
Why is this guy so confident in Bad Treasure?
Wang Ran shook his head: "Only punish the first criminal, and treat the others as dogs."
He might have to deal with some disasters in the future, and he needed capable people to help him manage the big stall of Doomsday Apostles.
Except for the Great Leader and Taoist Ji'an, who must die, the others can be dealt with as appropriate.
Wang Ran thought that he understood everything he should know, and it was time to go down and meet Taoist Ji'an.
But before that, he had one more thing to do.
