The giant with bloodshot vertical eyes that was biting at the human leg didn't actually exist. He was essentially an intense emotion produced by a particular person or creature.
This emotion that stemmed from an extremely deep impression entered the subconscious, spreading from the mind island to the surrounding illusory "sea." It gradually settled down and turned into a brand. Not all emotions and consciousness would eventually settle down. Most of them would be obliterated by time and washed away by the "seawater." Only extremely intense or repeated emotions would remain.
And once it became a brand, it would be a drop of water in the sea of collective subconscious. It would then be able to affect the surrounding creatures of the same species, becoming an ancient "memory" that was engraved in their bloodlines.
Therefore, the Mythical Creature form that the illusory giant displayed wasn't clear enough. Furthermore, there were many mistakes that were filled in based on subjective consciousness. Normally, it wouldn't make Leonard and Audrey unable to look straight at it, causing their spirituality to be in chaos, or causing them to have a mental breakdown. However, the madness that accompanied it, as well as the extreme fear that came from an unknown source, seemed corporeal. It could infect every living being's Body of Heart and Mind, Astral Projection, and even Soul Body!
This was the essence of the danger in the sea of collective subconscious. It didn't originate from strength, level, or level, but from the emotions and feelings that were imprinted.
Of course, if one encountered a high-level creature or a "brand" left behind by a deity, they could really see one or a few Mythical Creature forms. However, the outcome definitely wouldn't be good. They would either have a mental breakdown and go mad, or they would be completely corrupted by the emotions and feelings of a deity or high-level creature. No one could guess what they would become in advance.
In short, here, in this sea of collective subconscious, the way of combat was different from the outside world. At times, the more anxious one was to destroy the phantom, the more likely one was to be corrupted due to the stirring of emotions.
It was precisely because of this that Klein immediately controlled his emotions when he saw the seven-meter-tall grayish-blue giant rush over.
Then, he used an "illusion."
The target of this "illusion" was Leonard and Audrey.
In the eyes of these two Sequence 5 Beyonders, the giant that was two or three stories tall no longer had the madness and tyranny that made one's heart tremble. It appeared ordinary and ordinary.
Therefore, before the true extreme feeling of contamination hit them, Leonard and Audrey were very calm and did not show any emotional fluctuations.
Then, with one hand in his pocket, Leonard stretched out his right hand and slightly opened his mouth.
He originally wanted to use the archbishop's help to seal the first spirit in his teeth after he became a Spirit Warlock, a Terror Demoness (This was a powerful spirit world creature with a beautiful face and rotting body. It had a pair of gigantic eagle wings and was adept at sucking the consciousness of others and instilling fear in them). However, he quickly recalled that he was not only an Astral Projection, but he had also experienced the gray fog's baptism. How could there be another spirit in his body?
Left with no choice, he switched to using the powers of a Soul Assurer. His green eyes were deep.
The giant phantom immediately slowed down, and its emotions seemed to have been somewhat relieved.
At this moment, Audrey calmly opened her arms and used Placate.
An invisible wind blew past, and the giant phantom paused. The infection in its surroundings instantly weakened significantly.
During this process, Klein took out the bronze-green cross with many spikes. As he opened the bottle containing his blood, he poured a few drops onto it and said with a solemn expression, "That's not a problem.
He said with a solemn expression, "Light!"
Brilliant, pure, and flawless light burst forth. As Klein's black trench coat fluttered slightly, it drowned the giant phantom.
Without putting up any resistance, the grayish-blue giant quickly melted away.
One of the main abilities of the Unshadowed Crucifix was to remove or purify remnant mental imprints!
This was also the reason why Klein had brought this Sealed Artifact with him.
And when using the cross that came from the ancient Sun God, Klein had dispelled the illusion, allowing Leonard and Audrey to directly "see" the true appearance of the giant phantom, so as to enhance their experience in this aspect.
Although it only took less than a second for the giant phantom to be drowned by the endless light, Audrey and Leonard still felt dizzy. Uncontrollable horror surged out from the depths of their hearts, and their minds nearly collapsed.
This didn't last long. Audrey instinctively used Placate on herself to calm her emotions. Following that, she treated Mr. Star and Mr. World's psychological problems.
"How terrifying … Is this a demigod-level giant?" When the light dissipated, Audrey looked around and sighed with emotion.
At that instant, she had a deeper understanding of a sentence:
"Do not look directly at God!"
Even at the level of a saint, a demigod who only had remnant memories of others, couldn't "see" them directly, much less a true deity?
Leonard was rather experienced as he gave a self-deprecating laugh.
"Sequence 4 is indeed the level of a qualitative change in life. However, that fear just now was nothing much. It wasn't as intense as the emotions I felt when I faced a pregnant woman."
Are all poets basically bragging? You were still able to control yourself back then, but you were on the verge of breaking down just now … However, if Megose had successfully given birth to that child, we would probably have broken down and lost control, turning into monsters just by looking at it … As Klein lampooned Leonard, he sighed as his memories stirred up.
"Is that a pregnant demigod?" Audrey asked curiously.
"No." Leonard shook his head. "But she's pregnant with an evil god's spawn."
Is that so … Audrey didn't ask further because she knew that the adventure and exploration weren't over yet. It wasn't advisable to waste time.
She then looked at Gehrman Sparrow, who was wearing a black trench coat and holding a bronze cross and a metal bottle. She revealed a smile and said,
She smiled and said, "Thank you for the influence you had on our senses.
"Hmm, where should we go next?"
As a senior Spectator, it wasn't difficult for her to determine the fact that she had received Mr. World's help just now.
Klein controlled his subconscious action of furrowing his brows slightly and looked around.
"Does this sea of collective subconscious not have a core region?"
"No." Audrey shook her head seriously. "As long as there are living beings, there will be a sea of collective subconscious. There's no such thing as one being more noble than the other. This illusory sea won't really surge. The situation in different regions mainly depends on the surrounding environment. We call it the 'precipitation effect.' To put it simply, the sea of collective subconscious in Rouen will be different from Intis. This is because it mainly precipitates the intense emotions and feelings of generations of Rouen citizens. In turn, this will also affect the citizens of the two countries, causing them to have different temperaments or personalities to a certain extent … "
After a brief explanation, Audrey gave a conclusion:
"If that's the case, how can there be a recognized core area of the sea of collective subconscious?"
Klein nodded and asked thoughtfully, "What's the matter?"
"In other words, you can't provide effective advice on where to go?"
Mr. World is so direct … If it were any other lady or gentleman with a fragile heart, they would definitely feel embarrassed and hurt … As Audrey's thoughts raced, she saw the German Sparrow's dark brown eyes that were nearly black. They weren't crazy or cold at all. Instead, they were calm and deep.
This … Audrey instantly came to a realization. She knew that Mr. World was deliberately acting in such a manner so that she could experience the various details of a joint operation and accumulate more experience.
"Yes. She nodded calmly, not embarrassed at all.
Klein nodded inwardly before looking at Leonard.
"Don't look at me. My domain is in the dream, not in this strange sea of collective subconscious." Leonard immediately waved his palm.
Compared to Miss Justice, he had participated in countless joint operations. He knew that he shouldn't put on a brave front when he shouldn't.
"Then follow me." Klein retracted his gaze and handed the Unshadowed Crucifix, which had been dyed bronze-green again, to the hand holding the metal bottle. He then took out a gold coin.
Clang!
As the gold coin tumbled, he grabbed it. Then, without looking at the outcome, he identified the direction and took a step forward.
This is a method of divination … Audrey was enlightened.
She looked at the World German Sparrow's serious and calm side profile and the figure in the black trench coat, silk top hat, and bronze cross. For some baffling reason, she felt that he was like a missionary.
Leonard suddenly recalled something from the past.
It was the first case he and Klein worked together on — the search for a kidnapped child. Back then, it was also Klein who used divination to lead the way while he followed beside him.
Compared to how inexperienced he was back then, he was now so proficient that it was as though he had entered the mysterious World for more than ten years … Sigh, it's actually only been a year … Leonard stuck his hands in his pockets and followed closely behind Klein, feeling a little wistful.
Audrey glanced at him and sensed the change in his emotions.
Mr. Star and Mr. World aren't just acquaintances in real life. They might very well be quite good friends. Hmm, the kind that they haven't met in the past year or two … As Audrey made this judgment, she didn't slow down. She combined the knowledge she had learned and observed the details of her surroundings, distinguishing where there might be hidden vortexes or dangerous creatures lurking.
With her help, Klein led the way very smoothly. He didn't directly encounter a mark like the "giant phantom" he had encountered before.
Sometimes they walked straight, sometimes they turned. After an unknown period of time, the three of them suddenly saw light.
What appeared in front of them was a deep-sea crater. In the middle of the crater was a city the size of an island.
The city's foundation was grayish-white in color. On it were magnificent stone pillars that were hundreds of meters tall. They either stood there alone, or together, they propped up towering ancient palaces. The entire structure was strange and magnificent. It didn't look like something ordinary creatures could build.
Although Audrey didn't know this city, a thought instantly surfaced in her mind.
City of Miracles, Liveseyd …
