Chapter 18 Where Are the Gods in the World ?

Looking at the strange woman in front of him with a beautiful smile, Chu Yu didn't think that she was joking at all.

If my guess is correct, the corpses in the pits should have been from the hands of Nephthys.

Chu Yu swallowed his saliva and forced himself to calm down. He then began to analyze every clue he knew and tried to connect them all together.

He couldn't be sure whether Nephthys was one of the nine ancient Egyptian gods. The only things he could be sure of were two things.

First, with his small body, he definitely cannot defeat the four Hall brothers.

Second, whether Nephthys is a god or not, she needs the power of faith, and very urgently.

When she said that Bai Yue was investigating the bodies in the tunnel, Nephthys did not show any surprise on her face, which meant that those bodies wrapped like mummies were definitely related to her.

When they first met the four sons of Howl, these four freaks said they wanted to eat the liver, lungs, stomach, and intestines. This exactly fits with the ancient Egyptian mythology, except that in the ancient Egyptian mythology, the four sons of Howl are the guardians of the four organs, rather than feeding on them.

The bodies of the Dong'ou people in the tunnels were missing all their major organs, and it was very likely that they were eaten by the four Halls. As for the hypothalamus, they should have been taken away by Nephthys, who then extracted the dopamine from them in some way.

This explains a lot of things, including the fact that the bodies in the tunnel were sutured in two different ways.

There are three new drinks on the coffee table. Nephthys said that they can make people who drink them feel different emotions, so they should contain a mixture of dopamine secreted by the hypothalamus.

Fang Musheng obviously knew Nephthys's true identity, or at least he knew that this woman was not a "normal person".

The fact that Fang Musheng is still alive today means that he has great value for use, or that Lecoco drinks are of great value to Nephthys.

Chu Yu had a rough guess in an instant.

By drinking this beverage, the consumer will become dependent on it, and when they cannot get rid of it, it will become a kind of "belief".

Of course, Chu Yu had no way of knowing the details.

Chu Yu asked tentatively with a flattering smile, "Since you are a god, then just show some miracles. You will surely gain many believers."

"Humans are only afraid of things they cannot understand, and they will try to destroy the things they fear." Nephthys' tone was filled with a hint of sadness. After a long silence, she smiled and said, "Young man, you are very interesting, but unfortunately, you are not very smart."

After saying this, Nephthys' eyes flashed with a strange red light again.

The red light pierced Chu Yu's eyes and caused a sharp pain in his forehead.

"Give me everything you have, your brain and heart, and the rest to the four sons of Hall." Nephthys' voice seemed far and near, as if it carried some kind of charm.

Chu Yu blinked hard, and when the stinging sensation disappeared, he looked at Nephthys in a daze.

Nephthys looked at Chu Yu, and the smile on her lips gradually froze.

The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and Nephthys's face rarely showed a very confused expression.

"Give me everything you have. Give me your brain and heart. Give the rest to the Four Sons of Hall."

After Nephthys repeated it, her eyes once again burst into a strange red light.

Chu Yu blinked hard again, but this time he didn't even feel any pain.

Nephthys, on the other hand, opened her mouth slightly, with an expression of disbelief on her face.

"How could this happen?" Nephthys couldn't help but scream, "Are you also an Outsider?"

"The demon from outside the world? The demon from outside the world!" Chu Yu's expression changed drastically when he heard that. In an instant, he understood everything.

No wonder the other party calls himself a god, and no wonder the other party needs a lot of faith power. The Nimaguai gods turned out to be just demons from outside the world.

The faith that the other party speaks of is actually obsession in simple terms.

In fact, obsession and belief are not much different in essence.

To put it bluntly, persistence in doing something is also a kind of belief.

In the future apocalypse in the dream, creatures like the Outsider are extremely rare. Strictly speaking, this thing is not a carbon-based life form at all. It can only be called an intelligent life form, or an energy life form.

The Outsider is a more powerful being than Sun Wukong. The latter at least popped out from a crack in a rock, while the Outsider is born from people's obsession.

To put it simply, it just happens as you think about it.

Chu Yu didn’t know why the demons from outside the world actually existed in the present world, but in the future world, many people abandoned their original beliefs and worshipped the ancient demons from outside the world, and the emergence of this thing was actually an accident.

When the brain is active, a large number of neurons produce postsynaptic potentials synchronously, which are summed up to form a brain wave.

According to the research of future scientists, ghosts are also a form of brain wave existence.

When the deceased has a strong obsession before death, such as wanting to do something or even killing someone, then this thought will spread. If someone else happens to have brain waves with the same frequency, they will feel a specific picture or even an entity.

However, the human brain is amazing. In the present world, even the smartest people only develop their brains to one-tenth or one-twelfth of their potential, or even less. Other brain cells remain in an inactive dormant state until the day the body ages and dies. Even in the future world, after strong stimulation using some device, the human brain can only be developed to about 30 percent at most.

These mice, which had been developed to 30%, had strong obsessions and kept imagining themselves turning into devils in their minds, so that they could take revenge on the scientists who used them for experiments. Eventually, the demons outside the world were born.

The little white mouse died, but his mental power created the energy life form called the Outsider. The Outsider needs to absorb human mental power, or obsession, to continue to survive, so it begins to look for people whose brain waves have the same frequency as its own, and let them "believe" in it.

The more power of faith, the stronger the power of the Outsider. The abilities of the Outsider produced by different obsessions are also different.

Looking at Nephthys who looked alert, new doubts once again lingered in Chu Yu's mind.

Nephthys calls herself one of the nine gods of ancient Egypt, the guardian of houses and death. This means that this outsider is most likely the figment of the imagination of a human with particularly strong mental power. This idiot human believes that Nephthys really exists, and he thinks about her day after day and night after night, and finally Nephthys really appears.

It can be seen from Nephthys' words and deeds that she raised four freaks and called them the Four Sons of Hall, her eyes emitted a strange red light in an attempt to influence other people's brains, and she tried every means to gain the power of faith, etc. It can be seen from this that the other party really regarded herself as a god.

But what confused Chu Yu was that since Nephthys believed that she was one of the nine pillars of gods, why did she know clearly that she was an outsider?

Because the other party just used the word "also", which means that Nephthys knows that she is an outsider.

You have to know that the Outsider has a characteristic, that is, she is whatever the person who created her thinks she is, and she will not think of herself as an Outsider.

Besides, the term "outsider" has never been created in the modern world.

In a flash, Chu Yu suddenly thought of a possibility.

Then the person who created her knew that he could create an Outsider, and in his imagination, told Nephthys that she was not only one of the Ennead, but also an Outsider.

This means that the person who created him does not exist in this world, because it is impossible for people in this world to develop their brains to 30%. Even if their mental power is extremely high, it is impossible for them to know the word "outsider".

If you think through the cause and effect, everything can be explained.

The reason why it was pitch black outside was not because the villa was independent of some unknown space, but because the outsider demon affected his and Bai Yue's senses.

No wonder there are no photos of Nephthys on the Internet.

Because Nephthys can only deceive the five senses but cannot hide from electronic equipment.

If you take a picture, what will appear is definitely not the gorgeous mature woman in front of you. It will either be nothing, or a ball of glowing energy.

The villa is still a villa, and there are still flowers and plants outside, but because the senses are affected, it has become pitch black outside. It is estimated that the group of lackeys under Bai Yue’s command were also affected because the distance was too close, and because of the affected senses, they could not rush in to provide support.

As for Bai Yue being strangled by an invisible force, that was because Nephthys influenced Bai Yue's brain, causing her brain to imagine that her throat was locked, and then to imagine that she was suffering from lack of oxygen and shock. In the end, she really went into shock due to lack of oxygen.

Many experiments have shown that psychological effects can affect physiology. If a person thinks he is going to die, his physiology will "cooperate" to varying degrees.

If the Wang Fan he met before could control people's limbs, then the Outsider Demon could control other people's thoughts and consciousness.

Looking at Nephthys, Chu Yu had an inexplicable expression.

The Outsider herself is not very aggressive because she is an energy life form. The reason why she has the appearance of a woman is because she makes others feel that this is the appearance of a woman.

The reason why the four Hall brothers, who are tough and resistant to beatings, exude a foul odor all over their bodies is that these four freaks are made up of corpses. Their bodies are dead, but their thoughts, consciousness and brains are active. They may feel pain when they are beaten, and they will definitely be tired from biting and pouncing, but because they are affected by the demons outside the world, their brains block these negative senses.

As for why they are so resistant to blows, it is probably because there is steel or other hard materials under their skin.

Fear comes from the unknown. Now that he knew the other party was a demon from outside the world, Chu Yu calmed down completely. What surprised him most was that the demon from outside the world could not affect him at all.

Of course, this does not mean that he is completely safe, because the four Hall brothers are still there.

I have to say that the Outsider is very smart. He even created four monsters to protect her safety.

On his face, there was still that flattering and ignorant smile, and Chu Yu showed his best acting skills.

"Sister God, I don't know what you are talking about, but it may be because my brain is more developed than that of ordinary people. The doctor said that my brain waves are very strong, five times stronger than ordinary people."

As soon as Chu Yu finished speaking, Nephthys's expression changed, just like a released person seeing a bath center that was offering a 10% discount as a promotion!
