Chapter 362: The True Form of the False God
This immediately reminded Chu Jiang of his experience in the digital world. The church there was an absolute forbidden place, and anyone who dared to enter or investigate would have their corresponding data deleted, because the most important central server was set up there.
If you look now, the churches in the electronic world are likely based on real-world churches.
Even the entire electronic world likely exists because of the circuits and servers set up by the false god, not just based on its own supernatural powers.
Chu Jiang frowned slightly as he pondered this. If his guess was true, things would get complicated.
If the battle between Chu Jiang and the false god destroys the sewer area and even the entire church, then this server will also be damaged.
In that case, all the surviving residents of El Paso City will likely die in an instant, with no chance of returning to the real world.
Well, let’s take it one step at a time. Chu Jiang didn’t want to delay too long.
Because if they continue to delay, the residents of El Paso City will die from hunger and thirst.
……
The journey forward was going smoothly, so smoothly that Chu Jiang started to feel suspicious. What is the false god up to??
Chu Jiang has faced S-class ghosts before, and it was truly desperate when confronting the Black Sun in Luohe City. Every step was a struggle for survival.
But this time, when facing the false god, the sense of oppression was much weaker. This is because Chu Jiang has become stronger, but it is also related to the false god’s inaction.
When Chu Jiang and his friends entered the electronic world at first, it was the best opportunity to wipe out this group of people.
After all, they were just data at that time. It could be said that their lives were tightly controlled by the false god. Even Chu Jiang regretted that he shouldn’t have entered this city so easily.
But the false god didn’t lay a hand on them, and Jade even summoned the power of "Sleep Talking" to help the entire group successfully break free.
After returning to the real world, Chu Jiang sealed one of the nun’s clones. And when they arrived at the church, he even corrupted the fully formed nun, forcefully turning it into his own ghost.
At this time, the false god still showed no reaction. It’s worth noting that Chu Jiang not only defeated its subordinates, but also destroyed the nanochips it created. Does the false god not have any awareness?
The most unbelievable thing is that as Chu Jiang fought his way in, whether it was the nun or the angel statues, it seemed like they were acting solely based on instinct and couldn’t effectively stop him.
There was also a little girl who provided voice guidance throughout the journey, acting as their "guide".
All of this made Chu Jiang start to wonder if he had walked into a trap.
Is this still a virtual world? Like in the movie "Inception", where there are layers upon layers when you wake up? Endless nesting dolls?
But it doesn’t feel like it, huh? He looked at everything around him and didn’t have that strange feeling as if he was in a digital world. And, well, Sleep Talking, it shouldn’t be so easy for the false god to deceive him, right?
The more Chu Jiang thought about it, the more his head hurt. He could only tell himself to be cautious, cautious, and cautious again. He must observe carefully before taking action.
On the other side, Jade was silently praying. She had mentally prepared herself to die here, only hoping that God’s purpose could be fulfilled.
……
After about ten minutes, Chu Jiang and Jade took a detour and finally arrived at the underground facility in the center of the corresponding church.
This part could no longer be called a sewer, it looked more like an underground server room with a futuristic high-tech style.
Standing at the entrance, Chu Jiang and the others saw the messy, densely connected wires; the rows of rectangular server cabinets; the blinking red and green electronic indicator lights; and the noise from the server fans spinning at high speed.
When they looked at it for the first time, Chu Jiang and his friends didn’t see the false god.
However, Chu Jiang didn’t rush into the control room. He didn’t even dare to casually use Ghost Domain or ESP to investigate inside.
Chu Jiang summoned the nun on his watch and shared his vision with it, asking the ghost to go inside and help him look.
The nun naturally obeyed. The connection between them was now very close, similar to that between a real ghost and its servant.
As the nun floated into the control room, Chu Jiang softly asked the air again, "Little sister, are you still there?"
After a few seconds, Chu Jiang heard a faint response, "Yes, I’m here."
Jade was startled. She was originally standing two or three steps behind Chu Jiang, but now she immediately came up and tugged on his sleeve. "I heard her voice again."
Jade spoke in a very low voice, but at this moment, Chu Jiang didn’t have time to respond to her.
Chu Jiang just looked in the direction of the server room. The sound he heard just now was a overlapping sound, as if… he was receiving it through his mind and ears at the same time.
What’s even stranger is that his ears hear simple English, but his mind understands his own language.
Chu Jiang, with a serious expression, immediately motioned for the nun to float towards the direction of the voice.
After a short while, Chu Jiang’s eyes "saw" a strange figure that spread terror and despair.
This figure was tall, at least three meters high. It wore a tattered black cloak, under which was a chaotic, humanoid darkness.
Within this darkness, there were lots of blue binary codes made up of 0s and 1s, constantly flickering. But what was most horrifying was its chest area, where there was a lifeless and pale human face with closed eyes.
It was a young girl’s face, perhaps only seven or eight years old at most. Her brows were furrowed, her face was filled with pain, and her lips were so pale that they lacked any trace of color.
The moment Chu Jiang saw this ghost, his body once again experienced that long-lost, slightly rigid feeling, which was an instinctive reaction to extreme danger.
The ghosts inside him were also restless. It wasn’t just the Blood Hand Ghost and Dark Left Hand, even the Black Sun seemed to be getting agitated, as if it sensed a power that posed a threat to itself.
But what surprised Chu Jiang the most wasn’t how terrifying the false god ghost was, but rather its changing appearance.
Before in the Texas branch, Chu Jiang saw a drawing of the false god’s appearance.
First, in the drawing, the false god’s body is definitely not filled with blue data streams. It is a chaotic darkness that makes people feel like they are staring into a black hole.
Secondly, and most importantly, the face on the false god’s chest was originally that of an adult man, but now it has been replaced with that of a little girl??
Without a doubt, this girl is likely the person who has been communicating with and helping Chu Jiang and his team all along.
However, Chu Jiang doesn’t understand completely what kind of being she is. Is she the consciousness spontaneously born from the false god? Or is she just a pitiful person who has been devoured by a monster, unaware of it herself…
