Don't call me evil god

Chapter 968 The Real Means of Defense

Below the light ball is a projection that is slowly rotating and changing.

It looks somewhat similar to Arcane Projection, but there are obvious differences in the details.

The projection seemed to be made up of a series of "soap bubbles", each of which contained some tiny scarlet light spots that flashed from time to time.

The dark elf wearing an eagle mask raised his hand to control the changes of the projection.

Switch the "bubbles" back and forth.

Observing the situation inside.

The spiral tattoo on the back of her right hand lit up with an eerie red glow every time she manipulated it, then dimmed.

"What should we do now?"

The believers seeking knowledge took advantage of the fact that they had just entered the cave and the dark elves had not yet come to deal with them, and they took the time to frantically exchange information.

"Based on the current situation, if you don't intend to overturn the table directly."

"Pessimistically speaking, we may end up like the victims of the gray dwarves, becoming food for insects and being kept here;"

"If we want to escape, we may have to wait for Pete, Gale and the others to come and rescue us, or we may die directly at the Creation Altar."

"What about the optimistic estimate?" a companion asked.

"...I'll become the dark elves' plaything..."

The dark elves' open and liberal concept of chastity is well-known across the continent.

Even in this place that is suspected to be a gospel production base, one can still see several dark elves leading their slaves and playing with them wantonly as if no one is around.

Judging from the expressions of the other dark elves around, it was obvious that they were used to it.

Their nest-hunting plan was quite successful. Not only did they discover the magical dual-world phenomenon in the Howling Abyss, they also found a dark elf who was obviously a core member of the Church of the Supreme Truth.

The problem is that.

The bait used when making a nest is to be fed to the fish!

Something wasn't right.

Dolan, the only stealth fighter in the team, and Vincent, the only ranger, decisively and calmly stepped back half a step and protected their companions in front of them.

[Stealth] activated!
【Disguise】Activate!
The dark elves in this cave were not very vigilant. They did not even go through the process of counting the number of people in this batch of "insect food" brought in. The dark elf who had led them here earlier just waved the short-handled magic wand in his hand, and the gray dwarf Gree, who was at the front, staggered in a daze towards those tribesmen who had been sucked horribly.

This gives Dolan and Vincent room to operate.

[Stealth] Escape into the shadows;
The effect of the Ranger's [Disguise] is similar to Stealth, and it also has the effect of hiding the body, but it will greatly reduce the ranger's ability to move.

A team of more than a dozen people gathered together.

Two people disappeared quietly.

Without careful observation, it is not so easy to find.

……

Protected by the shadow energy, Dolan squinted his eyes and looked at the dark elf who was concentrating on controlling the projection under the light ball.

If they act conservatively, the best option for him and Vincent now is to leave here immediately and return to the Limoen settlement to reunite with Pete and others who stayed behind.

Now that the location of the cave in the mountain has been confirmed, it won't run away. So if it goes back and brings enough people, it can take out the whole place in one fell swoop. That will be absolutely foolproof.

But looking at the mysterious projection and the light gate at the other end of the cave from afar, Dolan felt itchy in his heart!

Based on his observation and analysis, Dolan was sure that this was obviously a production base controlled by the dark elves, or in other words, the Church of the Supreme Truth!

With cognitive interference protection, the concealment here is high enough.

Correspondingly, the guard force is seriously insufficient.

If it were on the surface, a place like the royal capital, it would be heavily guarded, with all kinds of anti-stealth spells and arrays everywhere as if they were free.

It is difficult for ordinary stalkers to find opportunities to gather intelligence.

Often they will be discovered before they even get close to confidential places.

Now is the perfect time. The only person from the Church of the Supreme Truth in the entire cave should be the dark elf wearing an eagle mask.

If we get closer, we will definitely be able to collect more comprehensive information about the projection and the light ball, as well as the masked dark elf, and record some of her physical characteristics, which may be used to confirm her true identity in the future!

At this moment, hesitating for even one more second would be disrespectful to the stealth profession!
Dolan made a bold decision.

He wants to touch over and take a look!
Tiptoe and walk slowly forward.

After walking a few steps, the scene in front of me suddenly changed.

The wide, sinister cave was gone.

A dark and gloomy atmosphere hits you in the face!

Dolan was horrified to find that he was in a gloomy passage full of unknown mushrooms, and the only lighting was the faint light emitted by some mushrooms.

The passage was narrow, only wide enough for two adults to pass side by side.

What's even more creepy is...

This passage meanders diagonally into the depths, and at the end there is also an elliptical light gate formed by the convergence of light circles!
However, the color of the light gate turned into a terrifying purple-black, and the light above would occasionally reveal terrifying skull patterns.

Look back the way you came.

Only the thick rock wall remained.

dead end!
In this world line, there is a solid rock wall, while in another world line, it becomes a dark cave.

Dolan thought for a moment.

He took a cautious step back.

The world returned to its "familiar" state.

The wide cave, the ball of light suspended in the center, and the production line of gospel powder.

One step further.

The world has changed.

A dark and gloomy winding passage.

Keep moving forward.

The world twisted before his eyes once again, and the familiar cave reappeared, but Dolan discovered with a headache that his position was not "forward". It seemed that he had taken a step towards his side.

"Fuck! Cognitive interference!"

Dolan was so angry that he wanted to curse.

After experiencing this world switch, Dolan finally understood the principle.

Whether the [cognitive protection barrier] is turned on or not will make him see two different worlds, and these two worlds both really exist here, and are entangled with each other, even causing serious confusion.

The switching and interweaving of the two worlds depends entirely on his "position".

Both worlds are real!

In this strange place, the effect of the [Cognitive Protection Barrier] is not to allow him to distinguish the real world, but to anchor him in one of the world lines!
Without the protection of the barrier, it would be like this.

He couldn't even be sure which direction he was heading!
"What the hell! This is a cognitive maze where two worlds are entangled!"

"He actually has a trick up his sleeve!"

"No wonder those dark elves led the way and led us into this direction. They must know the correct route!"

"If I don't activate the [Cognitive Protection Barrier], I might get lost while walking. If I take a step, I'll be embedded in the mountain!"

"What a stunt, the Church of the Supreme Truth!"

"Is this your real means of defense?"
