Now that both regrets have been resolved, the dungeon rules have been triggered.
When he regained his senses, he found himself in a space dominated by white and black colors.
Black and white, mixed together.
At first glance, there is more black than white.
A realization suddenly dawned on Fan Xiao's mind—this was his "superego realm".
It is the place where his morality and conscience manifest their "superego".
The colors black and white symbolize a person's specific level of morality and conscience.
Fan Xiao quickly found his "superego"—the young Fan, who was standing at the very center of the entire space.
You have fulfilled one of the mission requirements and can leave the instance at any time.
[Have you cleared the level?]
Finding the "superego" is the second instance quest.
Fan Xiao didn't expect that the task would be completed so quickly and easily.
"No... the current apparent strength is giving me the illusion that everything is simple. This instance is not easy... especially for me."
He quickly regained his composure and calmed down.
In order to survive in the "realm of self", he even temporarily abandoned his great personality and noble character, and ruthlessly slaughtered hundreds of millions of humans... Only by going to such lengths could he survive. In terms of danger and difficulty, this instance is by no means simple!
Sure enough, once people gain great power, their mentality becomes arrogant and they become inflated.
Even he was no exception.
Fan Xiao forced himself to calm down and turned his gaze to the slightly gloomy-looking young Fan—his superego.
Ah... Doesn't the superego represent morality and conscience?
Even if the atmosphere it gives off isn't exactly virtuous and righteous, at least... it shouldn't be the other way around, right?
Why does his superego not seem like that of a good person?
This "superego realm" is also a bit strange; the black overshadows the white, giving people a sense of oppression.
"I guess... this is the effect." Fan Xiao said thoughtfully, "The black part represents order and good, and the white part represents chaos and evil."
At this moment, the boy representing the "superego" suddenly spoke in a flat, emotionless voice: "You've got it backwards."
"..."
Fan Xiao pretended not to hear and continued to murmur, "Sigh... It seems that human nature is complex and cannot be extremely pure. Even someone like me has a small part of white that represents evil, not to mention others."
You've got it backwards.
"Young Fan corrected me for the second time."
Fan Xiaochao asked him, "Why do you talk like a robot?"
Is this what the superego is like?
The young man didn't answer, but instead asked, "How is my sister?"
"Go home."
How is Bai Zhi?
"They've gone home too."
How is Teacher Zhuang?
"Killed."
"how about you?"
"I……"
Fan Xiao was silent for a few seconds before replying, "I am different from you. I have chosen and embarked on a different life, taking a completely different path from yours. Look at this world where black overshadows white. You say I've got it backwards. That's right, I have long since lost all remorse."
"Without guilt... even you don't approve of me? You despise me, you abandon the past?"
"No, I just didn't know before and was forced to abandon you, but now I remember."
Fan Xiao said, "I accept you... or rather, I accept my own cowardice."
He placed his hand on the boy's head, as if to comfort him: "Leave the future to me. This false attempt to make amends is just the beginning. I will take it all back, in your place and in my own."
"Yeah……"
The young man finally raised his head, his face no longer gloomy.
As if he truly felt a sense of relief, he smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, Fan Xiao."
"Leave it to me, Fan Xiao."
Fan Xiao returned the smile.
In that instant, the boyish charm vanished.
Four doors appeared where he had originally been standing.
The frontmost door is the largest, while the three behind it are smaller.
"If I'm not mistaken, the first one is the gate to return to that empty city, and the three behind it... one of them should be Junior Sister's, and the other two... could they be the gates of two members of the Holy Sword Alliance?"
Fan Xiao made a guess in his mind.
Huiying previously said that players with tickets would enter the venue—this statement was a lie; the "Fraudster" psionic energy gave him feedback on this.
At the time, he thought that there were only two players in this instance, him and Cassandra.
In retrospect, it seems he misunderstood.
“If Huiying wanted to leave the Holy Sword Alliance members to launch a siege against me, she certainly wouldn’t leave only two behind, so… the mission of these two shouldn’t be to participate in the siege.”
"Could it be... that their true self is dangerous and was kept as a backup? Like a trump card, an insurance policy?"
"Echo can transfer players to other people's id worlds!"
Fan Xiao immediately guessed the answer.
Otherwise, there's no point in doing so.
As for why he wasn't moved during the previous battle... it's most likely because Echoes can't directly force a transfer; some condition needs to be triggered first, or some medium needs to be established.
Fan Xiao abandoned his plan to return directly to the empty city and instead focused his attention on the three small doors.
All the doors were filled with light behind them, making it impossible to tell where they each led.
Choosing to join the junior sister's sect requires a certain amount of luck.
With this in mind, Fan Xiao locked onto the future and awakened the C-rank psionic power, the Book of Akasha, which allows him to directly acquire intelligence.
This psychic ability cannot obtain all information. For example, it cannot obtain what Echo is thinking at this moment—probably because the two are not in the same world at the moment, so it cannot be used.
In terms of mental exertion, this book is definitely enough for him.
"The middle door?"
Fan Xiao quickly determined the result using his psychic abilities.
However, he did not go through the door immediately, intending to wait three hours.
Chapter 489 Van Shaw's Twin Angels
After returning to the deserted city, Huiying appeared in front of the main gate of a large welfare home.
Her face showed no joy at escaping danger, only barely concealed anxiety and panic.
At the same time, there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.
How to do how to do! ?
The A-rank psionic ability, Silver Garden... has been torn to shreds!
This incomprehensible phenomenon was completely beyond her comprehension.
A-level psionic energy is quite rare even in the entire evolution game.
Especially in backward time nodes, there are probably only a handful of players in an entire node.
Even among A-rank abilities, "Silver Garden" is considered outstanding.
Why... was the fabricated time torn apart by Van Helsing?
How did this guy do it?
How is that even possible?
What abilities did Van Helsing possess?
What level of player is he?
Too many questions surfaced in her mind, leaving Huiying feeling confused.
The situation was critical, and she had to force herself to calm down, analyze Van Helsing's intelligence, and think of a solution to the current predicament.
"That guy's weakened state...it's definitely an act!"
"He just finished consuming over a dozen vials of potions, and before he could even exchange a few words with me, he unleashed an attack capable of tearing the 'Silver Court' apart..."
"How can there be such an insidious and shameless person in this world?!"
While she was pondering solutions to the problem, Huiying became increasingly angry as she recalled what had happened, and couldn't help but burst into a tirade of curses.
That shameless Van Helsing, with his abnormally powerful strength, still pretended to be weak in front of her to deceive her and launch a sneak attack... This is simply too much!!
How could he do this!
"No! Now is not the time to complain."
“Van Helsing dared to commit massacres, destroy cities, and sink lands within his own ‘id’s world. His morality is definitely not high. Such a person usually won’t be trapped by guilt-ridden memories for long. He’ll soon catch up with me and attack me… I must kill him within my ‘id’s world! Once he comes out, I’ll have no chance!”
Huiying made a decision immediately.
They made the wrong decision, which was completely contrary to the correct solution.
When information is scarce, people tend to make incorrect assumptions.
Fan Xiao was no exception, nor was Hui Ying.
This has nothing to do with whether someone is smart or not.
If Huiying had stayed in Fan Xiao's "self-realization" a little longer and gathered more information, she wouldn't have made this judgment.
A player's strength has three dimensions: evolution rate, items, and talents or psionic abilities.
Players entering a dungeon will not suddenly gain strength. Even if they temporarily improve through items, psionic energy, or talents, their strength will eventually drop back. This is Echo's understanding and the most basic logical rule of the Evolution game.
This rule cannot be violated, otherwise players could completely break away from the evolution game and grow independently, which is unrealistic.
The "Realm of the Self" is a magical place. Although players use illusory powers in it, everything is basically in line with the logic of reality, and the error is not significant.
How strong one is in reality is how strong one is in the "id realm".
It won't suddenly become stronger, nor will it suddenly become weaker.
In other words, Huiying believes that the strength Fan Xiao displayed in the "realm of self" was his original strength.
This layer of "common sense" limited her thinking, leading her to make the wrong decision and lose the only opportunity to deal with Fan Xiao.
Not everyone is fully aware of the secrets of the "independent growth system tree" of S-class psionic abilities.
Huiying had no idea that once Fan Xiao left the "realm of self," he would lose the exaggerated power he currently possessed.
Can't blame her.
Fan Xiao's "id realm" is far too dangerous.
Forget about gathering intelligence; if she stays there too long... she'll be attacked by the teenager as an "outsider."
Even if an S-rank psionicist who has pointed out the "omnipotent domain" has their output limited to B-rank, it's not something she can try to take advantage of.
The Silver Court may be invincible, but psychic combat requires a certain compatibility, and there must be a way to suppress her in the Omnipotent Domain.
If she doesn't use "forced release of privileges," the most hilarious scene will unfold—as the dungeon boss, she will die a pathetic death at the hands of dungeon creatures.
“Van Helsing is smart. Now that he has figured out my identity and understands the characteristics of the dungeon rules, in order to seize Cassandra, he will definitely go to Cassandra’s ‘realm’, rescue her, and gain her favor… Yes! This is my chance!”
