Chapter 5: Agents of Ability
Three hours after the curtain call for the Dragon Circus performance, Cook was sweating profusely and slumped in a coffee shop seat, panting and his eyes a little distracted, like a camel that had been crushed. On the contrary, at this time, Hai Landuo, who was sitting opposite him, was elegantly sipping coffee. At their feet, there were a variety of packaging bags of different sizes, and at a cursory glance, there should be more than two dozen bags.
I only learned today that it turns out that six bags can be hung around my neck alone...... This is a painful and valuable life experience that Cook has exchanged for sweat and flesh.
"Little Cook, this won't work, a man who can't go shopping will never get the heart of a girl. Putting down the coffee cup in his hand, Highlandoy smiled at Cook Yingying and said.
I think Sister Lan, you are like this, so you have not been able to find a boyfriend. Cook secretly slandered.
"Listen, what are the three theorems of a good man? First, it will spend money, second, it will hurt people, and third, it will go shopping. Do you understand?"
I think this is Sister Lan's criteria for choosing a mate...... Cook still couldn't help but complain.
Jingle bell~
The sudden ringing of the mobile phone interrupted the next topic, and coincidentally, it was Cook and Highlando's mobile phones that rang at the same time.
Hylando opened the phone and glanced at it, and said with some surprise: "It was sorted out so quickly, is this guy Fenris quite powerful." ”
Cook also opened his phone, and at a glance, the dense words on the screen inexplicably made Cook a little sick to his stomach, but since it was Fenris's email, it must be something very important. Scratching his head, Cook was still patient and read it carefully.
After reading a few lines, Cook was surprised to find that these were actually some alien abilities related to spiritual thoughts, listed one by one, and conservatively estimated that there must be hundreds.
"Sister Lan, is this the information you put together with Big Brother Fenris?" Cook looked at Highlando, incredulously.
Highlando's head was slightly, still reading the email carefully.
Cook frowned slightly, and asked Highland, "Sister Lan, do you still think that young man's ability is spiritual?" In fact, Cook has already begun to think that maybe they have gone in the wrong direction from the beginning, and the speculation of the spirit type ability may have led them into a misunderstanding.
But then, Highlando's words: "Not to feel, but to affirm." ”
"For ...... Why?" Cook was still a little unconvinced.
Highlando's look at Cook's vetoed face, and remembered that at today's performance at the Dragon Circus, Cook didn't see what kind of ability was used behind the performance, and then it suddenly dawned on him: Yes, although Cook's observation and reflexes were beyond my expectations, he didn't seem to know much about abilities.
immediately began to explain to Cook: "Little Cook, whether it is the anomaly of those viewers or the agent of the teenager's ability, it is enough to show that it is a spiritual ability. ”
"Agent?" Cook seemed even more puzzled when he heard the unfamiliar words.
And after hearing Cook's question, Highland's face was full of incredulity and helplessness: "Ahhhh ”
Obviously, this was the first time Cook had heard of this, and he couldn't help but be full of interest, and looked at Highlander with great anticipation, hoping that she would continue to talk.
Hylando only felt fluttering under Cook's expectant gaze, yes, this is the image of a reliable big sister.
"But not all abilities are like this, and there are also some abilities whose mediums have prescribed conditions, in other words, a specific type of item, like my ability, the medium can only be flowers, and little Cook you are different, and your ability has more mediums. ”
"Then, it's the teenager's ability medium. Hylando smiled mysteriously and said, "According to my observation, there are also prescribed conditions for his agent, guess what it will be?"
Cook swallowed hard and replied tentatively, "Brain?"
“bi
Go!" Highlando's soft applause and admiration to Cook, "Little Cook is so smart, yes, it's the brain." ”
I see, no wonder Sister Lan can be so sure, indeed, combined with the audience's abnormality and the specific medium of the brain, it is already certain that the guy's ability is a spiritual ability. Cook thought to himself.
In this way, there is only one last doubt!
That's how that guy's ability is directed at the brains of those viewers, and why didn't any of the thousands of viewers exhibit anomalies?
Here, seeing that Cook had fallen into deep thought, Highlander reached out and patted Cook's head gently, and said with a smile: "Okay, the more you think about it, the more headaches you will have, relax and relax, today your sister Lan will give you more remedial knowledge." ”
Huh?
"Actually, depending on the medium, the efficiency of the ability is also different, for example, this cup of coffee, with Cook Jr., your ability can at least copy dozens of cups, but if it is this table, can it be copied so much? In short, there are many limiting factors for this efficiency, such as what volume mass, energy concentration and adaptability, etc., etc., are all limitations. ”
Hylando's words made Cook learn a lot of good things at once, and finally, Hylando smiled mysteriously and said to Cook: "But there is a medium that can not only maximize the efficiency of the ability, but also allow the ability to be enhanced to a certain extent. ”
Cook swallowed and asked tremblingly, "Yes...... What is it?"
"That is, the Adeptus themselves. Highland's answer was completely unexpected.
Cook, as if he had thought of something, asked in a frightened tone, "What about ...... Lan...... If I use an ability on myself, I'll ...... Will there be an extra me?"
Highlander was really frightened by Cook's unbridled imagination this time, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he burst out laughing: "Hahahahaha, little Cook, you are so cute, how is this kind of thing possible, there are very few people who can use themselves as the medium of their abilities, and the [Copy] ability is not of this type, and there is no [Copy] ability to copy itself." ”
Hearing this, Cook breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and sighed: "Ah...... So I'm relieved......"
Poof
Highlander couldn't help laughing again, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, if there is really a little Cook, sister, I will help you take care of him." ”
Cook scratched his head at this and said with a wry smile: "That...... Then just ask Sister Lan to take him shopping less. ”
"What, stinky little ghost, my sister still has to treat you, doesn't she?"
……
Just as Cook and Highlando's laughter were laughing, in the branch of the Lysan Courtyard in Hajigis City, John slapped his palm on the desk and shouted coldly: "Go on! Contact the public security forces, give me more efforts to continue the investigation, and be sure to find the people who disappeared in the city!"
"Yes!"
After the subordinate left the office, John sat quietly at the table without saying a word, rubbed his eyebrows, only felt exhausted, the recent events in the city made him overwhelmed for a while, first the strange repeat customer phenomenon of the Dragon Circus, and now there is a strange disappearance of the citizens, and this is the third group of people who have disappeared.
What's wrong with this city?
……
As night fell, Cook and Hylando's return to the hotel, and after a brief meal, they returned to their rooms to continue reading the information sent by Fenris.
About two hours later, as if she couldn't stand it anymore, she fell on her back on the soft bed, threw away her mobile phone, and complained: "No, I've been watching it for a long time, it's not that I don't have any clues." ”
Cook also put down his phone, sighed, and said depressedly: "That's right, I don't feel like any of these listed abilities are any." ”
Fenris has compiled and sent all the psychic abilities that have appeared in the Empire in recent decades, but unfortunately, these related abilities, no matter which one they are, will show some abnormal states when applied to people. There is a big difference with the phenomenon of this incident, and it cannot be combined at all.
"But today is not a day without gains, and for now, at least we know the root cause. Cook groaned slightly.
"Indeed, besides, it seems that they still like my gift. Highlando's sudden eerie smile flashed with confidence in her eyes. A layer of crimson light gradually floated around the body, gorgeous and magnificent.
Eh, Cook was a little confused at this point.
