Chapter 116 Confrontation with 'Them'
Intruders from outside the world, dark angels.
A fanatical believer who converted under the "guidance" of the dark angel, and whose essence has completely deviated from human nature.
A way of existence that violates common sense, a variety of strange forms and characteristics, large-scale pollution, and powers that cannot be countered with existing technology - research means falling into the risk of falling into corruption, but if you know nothing about it, you can't fight against those intruders.
those who confront.
Yu Sheng gradually improved his impression of the Dark Angels and the Angelic Cultists in his mind, sketched their outlines, and speculated on their nature.
Song Cheng stopped and did not interfere with Yu Sheng's thinking. It was not until a while later that Yu Sheng took the initiative to break the silence: "Listen to this, so far, you have not successfully killed any Dark Angel?"
Song Cheng sighed and spread his hands helplessly, while Xu Jiali nodded and said in a muffled voice: "Various methods have been used, and various forces have tried hard, but the existence of the Dark Angel is...
…weirdly, they don’t seem to be exactly where they are
From the observed position, any attack will be deflected when it is close to them. Even if it hits by chance, it will be extremely difficult to cause damage to their body surface, not to mention that some of the Dark Angels are simply not in normal material form. How should you kill them?
A shadow or a light?"
The two-meter strong man clicked his tongue when he said this, obviously quite unhappy, and then continued: "So far, the closest success is the 'Angel Falls' that happened in the Algrade border area ten years ago.
action.
"They had been preparing for a long time, and were extremely lucky to capture the signal before the arrival of the angel 'Beautiful God' in advance. An army that had been injected with sanity blockers in advance and carried heavy protective equipment gathered on the Great Plains to attack the entire area where the angel had arrived.
The area was bombarded indiscriminately, and a gravity bomb was used in the hope of counteracting the 'displacement' phenomenon that had occurred to the angels.
"According to the signals fed back by the monitoring equipment deployed on site, the gravity bomb worked, and a large amount of firepower was indeed poured into the 'Beauty God' and the 'Beauty God's' throne. This was also the first time that people collected the 'body strength' of angels.
Data - It resisted almost all attacks in the early stage, but after a period of continuous bombardment, its body began to crack and dissipate... but that was all.
"After the damage reached a certain level, the 'Beautiful God' disappeared from the plains. The traps and restraint measures set in advance had no effect. When the angel reappeared a few years later, it had fully recovered."
Yu Sheng listened to all this with some astonishment and did not speak for a long time.
The scene described by Xu Jiali obviously went beyond the actions of the Secret Service under ordinary circumstances. It was already a war, a civilized whole called "Algrade", against a war between individuals.
However, the seemingly overwhelming unilateral fire bombing only resulted in a successful "expulsion"...
"This is the upper limit of damage that humans can cause to the Dark Angel so far - severely injuring it and then banishing it. Considering that in most cases we don't even have the chance to lock the location of the angel's arrival in advance, so even this kind of 'exile' is
It all depends on luck." Song Cheng on the side broke the silence. "In addition, according to the statistics afterwards, even if a large number of protective measures were used, nearly a thousand soldiers were still affected during the 'Angel Falls' operation, and hundreds of people were affected in that battle.
He was transformed into an admirer of the God of Beauty and had to undergo lifelong psychological treatment."
Erin blinked her eyes and listened, and then suddenly sighed: "...it feels like there is no need to fight at all."
"No," Xu Jiali immediately shook her head, "Although Operation Angel Fall did not achieve the expected results, it still inspired everyone - because those things can really be hurt, and they may not necessarily bleed.
, but at least we are sure that they are not the 'lords' in the mouth of angel believers.
The firepower can hurt them and drive them away. Then one day, we can develop technology that can kill angels. In fact, we may already have this kind of firepower. Next, as long as we can understand the principle of the arrival of the dark angels
, if you find a way to warn them and trap them, you will definitely be able to deal with them."
Listening to Xu Jiali's serious and firm rebuttal, Irene opened her mouth and said after a while: "...The optimism and tenacity of you humans are really admirable."
"The good news is that the number of times the Dark Angels come to the real world is very rare, and they do not take the initiative to engage in any 'offensive' or attack densely populated areas," Song Cheng said from the side. "More often
, the dark angels that come to the real world only appear randomly in the civilized world, sometimes in desolate frontiers, and sometimes even in further places. At this time, the damage they cause is very limited.
"Relatively speaking, the damage caused by their arrival in foreign lands is greater - the danger level of foreign lands that have been parasitized by angels will increase by at least one level, and some originally stable and harmless foreign lands will also become dangerous in the real world.
'Traps', there have even been incidents where angels changed the restrictive rules of foreign lands, causing some entities to briefly come to the real world... For an organization like the Secret Service, this is an even bigger disaster."
Yu Sheng's eyes involuntarily scanned the information on the table again.
After a while, he changed the topic back to the incident that happened in Boundary City.
"So, what do the two angel cultists in the museum want to do?"
"Summon their 'lord' here." Song Cheng said in a deep voice.
Erin: "...They are sick!"
"Yes, people with normal minds will not become angel believers," Xu Jiali shook her head, "They are just keen on this kind of thing - performing their blasphemous 'sacrifice' in a foreign land. Because the Dark Angels
It is easier to come to foreign lands, so they think that using special rituals to pollute foreign lands can attract their 'lord'."
"Is this method effective?" Yu Sheng couldn't help but be curious.
"In most cases, it is actually useless and will only increase the number of victims. After all, the Dark Angels will not really respond to the prayers of those believers," Song Cheng waved his hand, "But I am afraid of a small probability event - they do all kinds of things.
This kind of evil and chaotic sacrifice is essentially to attract the 'attention' of angels. Once the number increases, one of them may really succeed. There are records of this kind of 'summoning coming' in history.
, and more than once or twice.
"Therefore, timely culling those angel believers who emerge has become a very important and effective means to fight against the dark angels - it may be difficult for us to kill an 'angel', but by eliminating those sacrificial activities, we can greatly
Reducing the chance of the Dark Angel coming, and on the other hand, annihilating those angel believers is also controlling the spread of the Dark Angel's information pollution."
Song Cheng paused for a while, organized his thoughts and then continued: "Our people will enter the 'museum' tonight, solve the remains of the sacrifice scene there, and confirm the identity of the victim. In addition, we will also investigate
The entire museum and the 'theater' outside will undergo a comprehensive inspection to see if there are any other hidden dangers left by those angelic believers."
"They penetrated into foreign lands and bypassed the monitoring of nodes," Yu Sheng reminded, "Have you found the reason for this?"
"We are checking, but not so fast," Song Cheng shook his head, "The node monitoring network has been running normally. With the ability of the angel believers, it is impossible to destroy the node network in a place like the junction without being discovered - other
Needless to say, it is impossible for them to hide from our director's 'eyes' in the first place. At present, we speculate that they may have found another 'entrance', one... that has not been registered in the database and has not been discovered by anyone, leading to the museum.
entrance."
Yu Sheng looked surprised: "Is there another entrance?"
"The probability is very low, but not zero," Song Cheng nodded, "In the final analysis, something like 'foreign land' is a special information structure that is restricted by rules and will have 'limited overlap' with the real world. In other words
, as long as its entry rules are met, any place can become the entrance to a foreign land.
, but generally speaking, except for a few abnormal types, the rules for entering normal foreign lands are strongly bound to specific locations in the real world, and in the border areas, these locations are all under the surveillance of the Secret Service - but
As the saying goes, there is no situation in this world that is 100% accident-free."
Yu Sheng touched his chin and muttered: "There is also this matter...'accidents' are really hard to guard against."
Next to him, Li Lin, who had been silent from beginning to end, finally couldn't bear it any longer. He raised his head and glanced at Yu Sheng: "It was that 'accident' to us when you opened the door."
Yu Sheng instantly changed his sitting posture to a more serious one, as if the words he just said were not his own.
"The main thing we want to tell you when we come here today is these things." Song Cheng cleared his throat, as if he didn't hear the exchange between Yu Sheng and Li Lin, "As for the 'Obscure Angel', you have already dealt with it, so in the future
In the days that come, your probability of coming into contact with them again will be much higher than that of the average person - accumulate some knowledge in this area in advance, and it may come in handy in the future.
"Besides, if you need any help from the Secret Service, whether it's the work of detectives in the spirit world or troubles caused by foreign lands and entities, you can always tell us if you encounter any difficulties.
——The Secret Service has always attached great importance to its 'partners'."
When Yu Sheng heard this, he really thought about it seriously, and then he suddenly remembered something before Song Cheng got up to say goodbye.
"By the way, there is something really wrong. I wonder if you can help me."
Song Cheng was stunned: "Ah... you said."
Yu Sheng thought about it and felt a little embarrassed: "Do you have any way to solve the problem of the delivery courier not being able to come to No. 66 Wutong Road?"
