Volume 7 Coral Chapter 645 The Final Direction of the Clues

The reason why Chen Lun recognized this machine was actually due to an accidental encounter in his previous life.

One day when I was surfing the Internet, I accidentally saw a post on a game forum. The poster claimed to be a senior executive of a well-known large guild and that his relative was a member of the official game development team, so he specially shared a private photo of the "game server" to educate all players.

At first, this photo was questioned by many people.

After all, the identity of the poster could not be verified, and with the level of technology at the time, let alone Photoshopping a photo, even using AI technology to create such a photo out of thin air was no problem, and it was difficult to tell the truth from the false.

However, after the poster posted another screenshot of his relative's "identity tag", such doubts gradually died down.

Those "little black fans" who had been swearing at the poster instantly became cowardly and disappeared without a trace.

Because that screenshot was a researcher ID card of the "Federal Research Center", which came with the holy emblem of the "Azure Holy Church".

No one dares to forge this thing.

The reversal of this incident was quite dramatic at the time, so Chen Lun was deeply impressed. He recognized at a glance the "big machine" projected in the firelight of the shrine. It was the supercomputer of the Federal Research Center and also the server of the entire game of "Mysterious Age"!

"What is the connection between the Church of Redemption in the outer continent and the Azure Holy Church in the real world..."

Chen Lun guessed secretly.

In addition to the fact that the two churches believed in the same old "Sacred Azure Flame", he believed that there was some unknown connection.

And this supercomputer may very well play the role of a hub or medium.

At this moment, Chen Lun's sight was suddenly attracted by a tiny object in the projection of the firelight——

It was a black card inserted into the groove of the supercomputer's main console. It looked ordinary, just like the standard data disks that can be found everywhere in street digital stores.

But an inexplicable intuition emerged in Chen Lun's heart.

This is the final clue...

Even this is the last four seasons bookmark symbolizing summer!

call!

In the shrine, a deep blue fire burned brightly.

I don’t know if it was because someone was approaching, but the flame suddenly underwent some strange changes.

I saw that in every swaying flame, there appeared a projection of a data cable, and at the top was a plug connected with flashing red and green light!

At first glance, the azure flame in the shrine looks like a snarling "mechanical octopus", with dozens or even hundreds of "data tentacles" extending wantonly!

Chen Lun was stunned by this scene.

A flame slowly snaked out from the shrine, and the projection of the data cable approached Neil's body.

Chen Lun thought for a moment and did not stop it. He let the flame surround Neil's neck and come behind his ear.

At the moment of contact, a brand was left behind Neil's ear, a long strip and a circular brand!

At this moment, Chen Lun understood something.

When Neil was a teenager, he saw those knights in Blackhorn Territory. The data ports behind their ears...

It is this kind of flame that comes from the shrine!

'It turns out that the so-called "baptism" is the holy fire that integrates the power of science and technology, instantly creating a corresponding chip projection in the human brain.'

Chen Lun was secretly amazed.

The Holy Fire can not only absorb power from other sources, but can also integrate the dark technology from a distant reality... and finally present it through flames in a way that is difficult for the Holy Fire to understand.

At this moment, the flame drilled into the data interface branded behind Neil's ear.

【Connection failed! 】

【After detection, you are already in the game! 】

【……】

[Data error…]

Chen Lun's surprise grew stronger as the prompts on the panel appeared.

Soon, the reminder sound came again——

[Data has been reset...]

[User "Neil Lucius" requested access...]

[Connecting to the game...]

【Connection successful! 】

【Loading...】

【Loading successful! 】

Wow——

Through Neil's senses, Chen Lun suddenly discovered that the scene in front of him had changed. The originally dim underground secret room and the shrine had all disappeared.

Instead, there was a gorgeous, flashing array of colorful lights!

The smooth composite material street under your feet shows the projected sidewalk lines that extend straight forward, with high-top street lamps on both sides that give a full sense of technology.

Various colorful and different styles of streamlined hover cars flowed continuously on the left-hand lane, leaving streaks of light.

In the distance, high-rise buildings stand in rows, and huge holographic projections flash in the night sky and on the surfaces of the buildings. Dazzling colors such as gold, cyan, pink and bright purple together constitute a prosperous and bustling night city.

"This is... the center of the Azure Federation, the Splendid City!"

Chen Lun controlled Neil's body, stood on the street, looked around, with surprise and a hint of nostalgia on his face.

He even saw a building not far away, which had the logo of the Shining Eagle Group on it, and the logo of the "Heroes' Pavilion" guild on the holographic projection.

'I'm actually back to reality... The so-called "game" is two-way?! Federation players come to the world of Anita through the sleep capsule, and local "NPCs" can actually go to the Federation through the shrine fire... The core hub is that supercomputer?! '

Chen Lun couldn't help but be stunned.

If this is true, then for the local NPCs, the players living in the Federation are nothing more than a group of meaningless "NPCs"...

“No, that’s not right…”

Chen Lun quickly calmed down.

He used his perception power to radiate outward, and immediately found something wrong.

At this time, several passers-by were walking towards us.

Chen Lun was planning to do a test, so he controlled Neil's body and walked forward, grabbing one of the men in a high-collared jacket.

However, the other party did not react. "Neil"'s hand passed through the passerby's body, and the latter continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened, as if he could not see him at all.

"This is just a projection... No, I am the projection!"

Chen Lun confirmed this fact on the spot.

'Because the Shrine Fire is not a real server, the "natives" from the outer continent can only come here in the form of projections, and even the Federation people cannot see them...'

[You have triggered the main quest: Baptism! ]

Mission description: You have passed the church's review and are qualified for baptism. Next, please follow the instructions and go to the corresponding location to receive the power of our Lord.

Mission objective: Arrive at the location "Federal Research Center" and download modules such as "General Swordsmanship", "Fighting Skills", "Equestrianism" and "Archery".

Mission reward: "Knight" status recognized by the church.

Chen Lun looked at the prompts on the panel and was stunned for a moment.

"This is not a hint for me, but for Neil... Although the Shrine Fire has absorbed the power of the supercomputer, it is quite rigid and mistook this body for a knight's squire who came to receive "baptism". "

He raised his head and immediately saw an illusory arrow flashing on the ground, which seemed to be guiding the direction to move forward.

Chen Lun thought to himself that this was interesting and followed the arrow forward.

He was quite familiar with the Splendid City because he lived here in his previous life. So even without the guidance of an arrow, he knew how to get to the "Federal Research Center".

Along the way, the bustling passers-by passed him by, but these people could not find him at all.

Chen Lun is like a ghost wandering in a bustling city.

At this moment, he seemed to see a historical scene——

The "natives" of the outer continent in the past, like him now, came here through the fire of the shrine. Looking at this strange and magnificent city and all kinds of technological creations that they had never seen before, they were deeply shocked. They immediately knelt down to sing praises and pray to the gods of fire.

"Neil" lowered his eyes, let out a long breath and continued walking forward.

Not long.

He came to the Federal Research Center.

The mechanical sentinels and cyborg security guards here were unaware of anything.

Chen Lun walked in unimpeded, bypassing the hall and corridor and going to the deepest research room.

As soon as you enter the enclosed bulletproof glass door, what comes into view is the huge machine standing in the center of the hall.

Dozens of researchers in white coats were walking back and forth in the hall in a hurry. Four or five of them gathered around a supercomputer, typing away on various complicated keyboards and buttons on the console .

There were two female researchers standing behind them, holding translucent notepads and writing something with their fingers.

Chen Lun looked around and silently came to the huge machine.

[Arrived at destination…]

[Module downloading...]

The supercomputer seemed to emit an invisible force, influencing "Neil".

Chen Lun remained silent and observed the changes of "Neil".

[Fourteen modules including "General Swordsmanship", "Fighting Skills", "Horsemanship", "Archery", "Long-handled Weapon Mastery", and "Plate and Leather Armor Maintenance" have been downloaded! ]

[Completed the main mission: Baptism! ]

[Congratulations, you have become an official knight recognized by the church! ]

A prompt popped up on the panel, and Chen Lun immediately discovered that a lot of knowledge had appeared in Neil's mind out of thin air. This body had inexplicably mastered some skills, as if it was the result of years of training.

Immediately, a powerful pulling force came from the other side in the distance.

Chen Lun discovered that the body was gradually becoming transparent.

"We will be forced to return to the outer continent..."

He said secretly.

Chen Lun's thoughts turned, and taking advantage of this last moment of stay, he suddenly reached out and touched the groove on the console.

A pitch-black chuck was quietly inserted there.

However, "Neil's" hand passed through the chuck and could not reach it at all.

Although Chen Lun was disappointed, this result was also expected.

But the next second, Chen Lun felt a strong emotion from the black chuck...

go home!

It wants to go home!

Want to return to Chen Lun's arms!
