"You must be very confused." Chen Ang said, "You have some questions to ask … For example, who are we? What is the purpose of coming here? What do we know? "
"Don't worry, I can answer you one by one!"
Chen Ang sat in the dark room with his back against the dancing corpses. The dancing demons in the room made him look like a ghost. He said slowly, "You can rest assured that we are not interested in you. We are only here to observe that 'door'. In the entire Voodoo Cult, there are only a few people who know that the real sealed object is that door."
"Although the sealed door is open, there are only a few people who can really get close to it."
Seeing Nick's puzzled expression, Chen Ang suddenly smiled and said, "You don't think that every mirror can lead to that door, do you? In fact, according to the data found by the Holy Shield, the door has just been opened, so there are very few people who can get close to it. Some Voodoo Cult wizards in Africa have unexpectedly disappeared … In remote villages in various continents of the United States, some cult organizations have disappeared. "
"Only people like you can get close to the door …" Chen Ang looked up and said, "There is a wall between the known common sense world and the unknown mysterious world. This wall isolates myths, legends, ghosts, and magic, blocking those unknown mysteries behind the wall. But after the soul gate is opened and the things behind the gate are released, the first wave of impact will naturally be you, who are behind the wall."
"Death still needs some time to break through the wall of knowledge."
"There is still some time for ordinary people protected by the wall of knowledge to touch the door, but this precious period of safety is not long! That is why I brought him to you. We want to know what is the door guarded by the Voodoo Cult. What is behind the door? What secrets do you know about the soul gate and 'death'? "
"And, the secret of the fifth seal, who else knows?"
Cercy said with difficulty, "You are here to investigate the fifth seal. You want to know where the 'original sin' is? "
Chen Ang smiled and said, "No, I know where the 'original sin' is. What I want to ask is — who else knows where it is?" Nick raised his eyebrows and said, "You know where the fifth seal is? You didn't tell us. "
"If you want to protect a secret, the fewer people who know, the better!" Chen Ang said lightly, "It's best if only I know."
Cercy said, "So the reason you asked me is …"
"Of course, to kill them. In order to protect the fifth seal, all insiders better shut up. Either never say it like me, or … die!"
"We don't know more than others … We are just ordinary wizards." Cersei begged, "Voodoo Wizards are everywhere. The secret of the Gate has long disappeared in history, just like that ancient tribe. "Let us go!"
"If Mary LaVeyre's left and right hands are also ordinary Magi and know nothing about it, then the Voodoo Cult really has no secrets to speak of! Chen Ang sneered. "You've been following Lavieu for so long. She's the founder of the Voodoo Sect, the famous Empress Voodoo. As a Creole, the process of Lavelle establishing the Voodoo Sect and inheriting the legacy of the Benin Voodoo Tribe was a little too smooth. "
"The Voodoo Sect is different from the Wakanda and Ebola tribes. It's already strange that you know those secrets. After the Voodoo tribes perished, the seals and culture they inherited were passed down in the ancient religions of Benin. However, without the tribes as inheritances, the ancient legends passed down by word of mouth will lose a lot of key information."
"I've sent someone to investigate in Benin. The secrets that were passed on orally by the wizards of primitive religions have become a mixture of myths and legends. They are very vague."
"My men went through a lot of trouble to figure out the existence of the 'gate' from those messy legends and myths … and the Poison Sect's headquarters in the sea actually knows the core secrets of the Voodoo tribe? You even know about the 'Gate of Souls' — this part of it doesn't even exist in Benin. "
"I can't help but guess — there's definitely something wrong with La View. She didn't establish the Voodoo Sect as a summary and sublimation of the African primitive religions popular in Haiti, but with the secrets she knew as the core, she gradually integrated those scattered primitive religions and created the Voodoo Sect! "
Chen Ang analyzed step by step and exposed Cercy's disguise.
"The fifth seal …" Chen Ang said slowly, "You shouldn't know about the fifth seal at all. No one in the four ancient tribes knows the secret of the fifth seal. Because during the first mutation of the 'Stairway of the Sun', in order to avoid leakage, the core of this secret was handed over to the ancient Egyptians for safekeeping, and the remaining parts were scattered among the various ancient civilizations. The secrets kept by the ancient Egyptians were taken into the pyramids by Yin Hetian. Later, when the Holy Shield reactivated the floating pyramids, they found this part, plus the ones we already have. Only we have all the secrets and know the location of the fifth seal, the 'original sin'. "
"So I want to know where La View learned this. What else does she know? "
Cercy said in horror, "I can't tell you about Queen La View. I can't say it at all. If I want to say it, Queen La View can take our lives no matter where she is."
"So I didn't intend to ask you at all!" Chen Ang said, "Do you still remember those dusty memories that inexplicably appeared in your mind just now?"
Cercy's expression became very frightened.
Chen Ang nodded and said, "I did peek into your memory, and I already know most of the secrets. What I want to know now … are the things in your mind that are cursed and don't dare to recall. Why would I tell you so much … I just want you to 'believe'. "
"Have you heard of it? In witchcraft, belief is a kind of power. And this power of belief was brought back by La View from behind the door. " Chen Ang slowly said in Cercy's ear. These words made her struggle violently, but her whole body was stiff and she could not move.
And the reason why Cercy could not move was that there was still a soul in her body.
The original owner of this body, Caroline who had returned from behind the door!
Chen Ang deciphered the secrets in Cercy's brain … He began to come into contact with the door!
"Human thoughts exist in the mind, and all objective reality is based on human perception. The world we know, or rather, the world we know, is the projection of the real world on consciousness. Therefore, our world is composed of two parts — the truth of reality and the truth of consciousness."
"Some mental patients perceive the same reality as us, but because their way of perceiving the world and internal logic are different from ours, the world they perceive is different from ours. This distortion based on consciousness and information will change our world. "
"Based on this … witchcraft will not change the objective world, nor will it change science, but it can change the world we perceive."
"By distorting the internal logic of our cognition, we can distort the world."
"And this power of distortion comes from the transmission of information such as language, ideas, beliefs, and behavior patterns. It is similar to the role of genes in the evolution of living things. This concept can be called — memes!"
"The so-called 'gate' is not the gate of the soul that leads to death or the gate of life and death, but a gate of consciousness that locks the existence of anti-logic, anti-knowledge, and anti-common sense in human consciousness that goes against the internal logic of logic. It does not exist in the real world, but in each of our consciousnesses. "
"It is the chaotic data that was locked when the Apocalypse created human consciousness."
"Human consciousness is a quantum algorithm. This algorithm follows the laws set by the Apocalypse — basic reason and logic. Once this basic reason and logic are lost, human consciousness will become chaotic data, and the window through which humans perceive the real world will be distorted into something indescribable."
"This basic law stipulates the way humans observe the world and all the concepts humans use to understand reality. Once this door is broken, all the concepts humans have about everything will gradually collapse. Humans will not be able to understand mathematics because mathematics is based on basic logic."
"The reason why one plus one equals two cannot be falsified and is absolutely correct is because it is based on human basic reason. Once this basic reason is gone, this cognition will also collapse!"
"Mathematics does not originate from the observation of the natural world and reality, but from the basic reason of consciousness."
Chen Ang slowly explained to Nick, "Without opening this door, human consciousness is an algorithm created by the Apocalypse, a black box system. How can the Human Revolutionary Alliance believe you? But once this door is opened, it means the collapse of human basic reason … Just like the collapse of the human immune system, this door is the human consciousness immune system. "
"After the door is opened, the immune system will collapse, and your consciousness will be easily infected by information from the outside world."
"All the products of human cultural activities, language, words, and the information contained will contaminate your consciousness like a virus. In the past, when your consciousness still had internal logic, you could easily distinguish which information and understand it correctly. But without that door, you will lose the basic ability to distinguish information."
"At that time, a sentence, a paragraph of text, or a legend can easily distort your consciousness. You are like a system with a firewall removed, allowing all information viruses to infect you. "
"This is the truth of the Soul Gate … It really is a door that protects your soul."
"Behind it is not 'death', but the chaotic data that death sealed when your consciousness was created by the order of the Apocalypse."
"Memes are not scary … It is a normal method of information transmission, but once the Soul Gate, the firewall of consciousness collapses, then memes become scary, because they can infect our basic reason, and memes become memetic viruses." Chen Ang said to Nick solemnly, "Can you imagine that a sentence I say to you, a line of words you read in a book, can change and distort your consciousness?"
"Can you imagine that a short piece of information can turn you into a psychopath?"
"Modern society is an explosion of knowledge and information. People receive a huge amount of information every day. Once this door, this firewall is closed, they will be receiving a large number of memetic viruses at every moment. In less than a day … All humans in the Apocalypse Era, the new humans, will become crazy. "
"This is the second impact of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse!"
"Now, the Wall of Cognition, or in other words, common sense will replace the firewall to protect humanity. It may only last for a week. After a week, the Wall of Cognition will collapse, and human consciousness will be unprecedentedly fragile, facing the test of the Apocalypse! You must find a way for humanity to survive! "
"Some of the people in the Revolutionary Alliance were also created by the Apocalypse, which is why we do not distinguish between the new humans and the old humans. The Republic has already issued the first human consciousness safety warning, injecting the internal population with a consciousness vaccine, artificially creating a conscious immune system. Nick … we will lend a helping hand, but you must first strengthen yourselves. "
"We will only act at the last moment."
