Chapter 9: The Truth That Has Been Denied
"Son, go on! With your voice, we have always been by your side, and you will always be our pride. "My father's eyes were full of trust and encouragement.
"Child, you have to be careful. You are the continuation of my life and that of your father, live well. Mother's words have been lingering in the uproar's mind.
Dreams, after all, are just dreams. It's beautiful, but it's short-lived.
Ever since the farce at the Shadow Bar ended, I've been dreaming the same thing for days. The parents in the dream were so real, as if they had never left, but whenever the uproar threw himself into their arms, he was always greeted by a dream.
In the past few days, he barely got out of bed, because his injuries were much worse than he thought. Or to put it another way, he overestimated his ability, although his ** recovery ability is ten times and a hundred times that of ordinary people, but obviously this ability is not strong enough to recover all injuries in a short time. At least judging from this incident, it is not so easy to get a broken bone to grow here. But Xuan Ran is obviously a blessing in disguise, because in the past few days, Nicholas has taken care of Xuan Ran, and at the same time, to Xuan Ran's surprise, this noble vampire princess is actually omnipotent in housework. In particular, the food she cooks is more than a little stronger than the uproar in terms of appearance and taste.
Pei Ling was extremely angry after seeing Yu Ran's injury, and he wanted to go up and fight with Nicholas on the spot, but was successfully stopped by Yu Ran, otherwise he might not be Yu Ran himself lying on the bed now. However, although the physical war cannot be waged, the verbal struggle cannot be abandoned. Under such circumstances, Pei Ling had a big fight with Nicholas, but in the uproar, it was more of a debate than a quarrel. In the debate, Pei Ling changed her gentle and lovely girl-next-door style to become a mature and capable lawyer, and her language was full of professional words such as "trespassing on people's houses", "illegally occupying other people's property", and "intentionally hurting people". Nicholas is also arguing, of course, and she recounts the cause of the incident: she set up an ambush in the bar to shadow her, in the delusion of using abnormal means to achieve her ulterior purpose; It also tells the process: under what circumstances she acted in self-defense, and thwarted the evil plot of Yiran and his accomplices on the spot with more than one enemy; and showed the results of the incident: Yu Ran was seriously injured and was in bed, and she took meticulous care of Yu Ran with virtue to repay her grievances!
Pei Ling naturally scoffed at Nicholas's defense, but the truth is that she really can't do anything about Nicholas, because the energy of the two people in terms of force is absolutely disproportionate. The last two people reached an agreement, and the content of the agreement is as follows: The agreement is made by: Party A, the initiator of the agreement: Li Peiling (hereinafter referred to as Party A)
Party B: Nicholas (hereinafter referred to as Party B)
Beneficiary of the agreement: Shen Xuanran (hereinafter referred to as the beneficiary)
Content of the agreement: 1. In view of Party A's busy affairs, Party B shall unconditionally take care of the beneficiary on behalf of Party A before the beneficiary recovers from injury.
2. Party B shall not harm or injure the beneficiary again during the time of taking care of the beneficiary. (If the beneficiary first does something that harms the interests of Party B, Party B can adapt to the situation, but the life of the beneficiary shall not be endangered)
3. Party B must change his eating habits and shall not drink the blood of the beneficiary until he or she has recovered from his injury.
4. Party B shall return the credit card belonging to the beneficiary and control the daily use. Do not buy luxury goods that are overpriced. (Everyday items such as clothes and cosmetics are not counted)
5. If there is any violation of the above, Party B will unconditionally move out of the beneficiary's home, and cut off contact from now on and shall not be harassed.
6. This Agreement shall come into force after being signed by both parties.
7. This contract shall be made in triplicate, one copy of Party A, one copy of Party B, and one copy of the beneficiary, each of which shall be equally binding.
Party A's signature: Li Peiling's Party B's signature: Nicholas beneficiary's signature: Shen Xuanran Signing time: March 20, xxxx Peiling has been accompanying Xuanran until late to go home, and when he went back, it was Nicullas who sent Peiling back, because it was already dark, and Xuanran couldn't get out of bed, and Peiling couldn't drive, so he had to do it for Nicholas. Apparently something happened on the way Nicholas sent Pei Ling home, because Nicholas said to Xuan Ran very inexplicably after he came back, "She really loves you!" βγ
Lying on the bed staring at the ceiling, he was still as if he was a dead man, but his brain was not quiet at all, he thought about everything that had happened to him in the past month or so, careful and meticulous analysis with bold and reasonable reasoning, he finally came to a hazy conclusion - Nicholas is not a simple vampire who is hunted down, she should have a noble bloodline and a noble identity. And she must have been involved in a very serious incident......
He fell asleep after thinking about it, after all, he was seriously injured and very weak. But he didn't sleep very well, because he had strange dreams again. In his dreams, he also transforms into a vampire, drinking with a group of vampires in a somewhat old bar, and they are like brothers. He even dreamed that Nicholas was dressed in fine clothes and wore a crown on his head, looking like a queen...... There were so many strange and hazy fragments that he woke up the next morning as if he hadn't slept that night, but was even more tired.
After careful calculation, Yu Ran has been in bed for 4 days, but his injuries have not improved. Although the wound on his chest had healed intact, the sharp pain still invaded the uproar from time to time. Even during one episode, he asked Nicholas to knock him unconscious to temporarily relieve his pain. However, the cultivation of the past few days has not been ineffective at all, at least he now feels that his limbs are finally as weak as they were a few days ago, and he can finally get out of bed.
He opened the tightly blocked curtains and looked at the weather outside, it was cloudy.
He doesn't like cloudy days and doesn't like rainy days, but if he used to be uproared in such weather, he would probably choose to stay at home and watch movies or surf the Internet, but now he has no such interest at all.
He slowly moved into the bathroom, put the bath water in his hand, and inadvertently glanced at himself in the mirror, he felt so strange, although his appearance was no different from before. It can be said that the original Xuan Ran was an ordinary student, and the current Xuan Ran is an ordinary student with extraordinary abilities.
The water vapor in the bathtub rises, indicating its temperature. It is true that ordinary people would not bathe with water at such a temperature, but Xuan Ran wanted to give it a try. In fact, ever since Nicholas's attack revealed his abilities, he has been constantly trying to push the limits of his body, because he wants to know how much stronger his self-healing abilities are than ordinary humans.
Lying in the bathtub, the sharp pain running down every nerve in his brain, making his breathing become rapid, and at the same time he was trying to keep his composure, he had to keep his brain awake now, because he was doing an experiment - he wanted to know if he could control his self-healing ability through consciousness!
Now the home of the uproar is like a huge darkroom, because all the places where sunlight can get in are blocked by Nicholas with thick curtains. Especially that huge floor-to-ceiling window in the restaurant! Every time I stay at home, I feel like I'm in a huge tomb.
A strong smell of rice overflowed from Nicholas's porridge pot, and she filled a bowl of hot porridge and put a few side dishes prepared in advance on the prepared plate, and then disappeared at once, but when he appeared in the room of the uproar, what he saw was not the uproar lying on the bed, but the redness of the soup around a bath towel like a freshly boiled crab. Nicholas was really taken aback by the uproar, and quickly put the dinner plate aside and pulled the uproar tear space back into the bathroom, she quickly picked up the shower and turned the water temperature to the coolest and began to pour cold water on the uproar.
The uproar that had just been boiled in almost boiling water was naturally a little unbearable when he was sprayed with cold water, so he hurriedly shouted while dodging!
"Stop! What are you doing? Crazy! β
"Am I crazy? I think you're crazy! Why do you burn yourself like a turkey! β
It dawned on her that this crazy woman was worried that she would be burned! Uproar snatched the shower from her hand and turned off the water, looked at Nicholas with complicated eyes and said, "Don't worry, did you forget?" I can live without blood! You can live without a beating heart! Are you still afraid of this hot water? β
"I know this burn isn't a problem for you, but what are you doing here? Self-harm? Nicholas was clearly a little angry at the uproar's inexplicable behavior.
"Self-harm? How can it be! As he spoke, he pulled Nicholas out of the bathroom, "I'm not self-harming, I'm experimenting!" β
"Experiments?"
"Yes, to be specific, I want to know if I can control my ability to heal many times stronger than ordinary people. And I wonder if I can do more! β
Nicholas's first thought after listening to the uproar of the explanation was - another stupid hat of a human ability who wants to develop his abilities infinitely! The reason why she had this idea was because she had learned many things in her long life that she had not known before, one of which was about the evaluation of human abilities.
"No, I don't think I'll have to give you a lecture!"
"Class? No way! What can you teach me......" Before Nicholas could finish his words, he tapped Ann Ran's forehead with her slender fingers, and Grandview instantly felt like he had been hit by a train and flew towards the mirror in the bathroom. However, Xuan Ran did not break the mirror and break the blood, but appeared directly on his bed, and then Nicholas also appeared in Xuan Ran's bedroom, she handed the dinner plate to Xuan Ran and said in a commanding tone, "You must listen carefully to me when you eat, so as not to make such a low-level mistake in the future." β
He took a sip of porridge, and then looked at Nicholas with extremely serious and eager eyes, as if he were really in a very interesting lesson.
"Let's talk about you first, people like you who have abilities that ordinary humans don't have are called supernatural or super-evolvers. In fact, you also know the existence of supernatural beings, the captain, Lei Zi, Zheng Lang, they are all the same as you, you are the same kind of people. β
"Are we one of the same kind of people? But our abilities are not the same at all! β
"That's the magic of human anomalies, because it's rare to have humans who are capable of being exactly the same. Speaking of you, we have to say that there is a secret and powerful organization in the world called the 'Communal Society', and its founder is a powerful human ability. 'The meaning of the "Advance Society" is: to advance and retreat together'. When the organization was founded, its membership consisted of a group of human paraphils. But over time, the Kyojinkai developed into a large organization involved in various fields such as politics, military, economics, medicine, etc. It also has members all over the world, and its power is very strong. β
"Why did that group of supernatural people advance and retreat together? And how powerful is it? He was really interested, because what Nicholas said was like something from another world to him, and he didn't know it, and he didn't need to know it. But now he needs to understand, because he is now gradually entering that world, a whole new world.
"The reason why they want to advance and retreat together is because the Communists were founded in Europe in 524 AD, when the situation of the human supernatural was really an internal and external trouble, and the internal trouble was that they were excluded and suppressed by ordinary humans, and the external problem was that they were also hunted and killed by foreign races. Speaking of their strength, it was gradually accumulated by the Communists, and now the strength of the Communists is enough to balance the other races represented by the Bloods and maintain the dominance of humans on the earth. β
"It seems that your ambitions are not small! Other forces are needed to counterbalance you. He still heard the secret message in this.
"It's not us! There is also a difference between a Bloodline and a Bloodline! Nicholas's voice rose a few tones as he said this, and his emotions seemed to be a little excited.
"You said that the Kyojin Society was founded in 524 A.D., that is, in the Middle Ages. At that time, weren't the legends of vampires, werewolves, witches, and so on all the rage in Europe? It seems that those are not legends, because I happen to have a living vampire in front of me. β
"Boy! I'm saying, stop calling me a vampire or I'll cut your tongue out and see if you can grow another one. β
"Okay, okay! Don't be angry. You continue. β
"Yes, that's real. In fact, wizards are not only witches, but also male wizards. It's just that somehow wizards were rumored to be ugly, evil old women. The reason why witches became so famous in the Middle Ages was that their abilities as supernatural beings were so obvious that they were easy to spot, so they became the focus of attention. The establishment of the Communist Party under such historical conditions has also been full of hardships along the way. However, in modern times, with the addition of a group of scientists who are fanatical in the study of human abilities, everything begins to change in the Kyojinkai. After research, those scientists proposed that the root cause of the emergence of the supernatural was the evolution of species. The proposition and confirmation of this theory completely changed the fundamental meaning of the existence of the Communist Association and its status on the world stage, because the president of the Communist Association at that time put forward a very loud and moving slogan on this theory: co-evolution! After this slogan was proposed, a large number of people of insight in ordinary human beings began to join the Kyojinkai, and the Kyojinkai is also inclusive, as long as you have a skill that can contribute to the great goal of the common evolution of mankind, you can be absorbed as a member of the Kyojinkai and be protected by the Kyojinkai. β
"Wow! It's a great organization, and the slogan is tempting, but what does it have to do with me? He asked, holding a spoon in his mouth.
"Of course it matters, because the scientists of the Communion Council have developed a complete system for classifying and evaluating the level of ability of the Commonwealth after long-term research."
"Didn't you say that there are very few people with the same abilities? How to divide the different abilities? β
"Listen, don't interrupt me. This classification is not what you think, the same ability is grouped together, but a general distinction. This system divides the Adepts into four categories: S, D, A, and B. Each represents four words: soldier, defense, auxiliary, and bookman, which means ......"
"I know, Warrior, Defense, Auxiliary, Scholar."
"Don't interrupt me when I say it!" Nodding aggrievedly, in fact, he just wanted to show his English strength, because this was one of the few subjects he learned better.
"The meaning is obvious, some of the abilities of the Adeptus are biased towards combat, and some have strong defensive capabilities, which should be easy to understand, you should have seen those movies about the Adepts, those movies have made a good interpretation of these two types of abilities."
Uproar still nodded, because he didn't want to speak, for fear of being put on the hat of "interrupting".
"The classification of support is actually very interesting, because the abilities of the people who are classified as support are all strange, for example, a person with a special sense of hearing is particularly developed, he can hear what I say to you from a distance of three kilometers, and such abilities will be classified as category A, because they are so helpful for monitoring, intelligence gathering, etc. Scholars have a relatively homogeneous ability, and there is even debate as to whether they should be classified as supernatural, because they all have one thing in common, which is another highly developed brain. Some of them have a strong memory and remember them; Some have super computing power, which is faster than a computer. I know one who is nuclear powered, and he himself once told me that he never needed a paper or a computer. β
At this point, Nicholas wanted to continue, but he raised his hand in an uproar, as if a student who did not understand the teacher's questions in class was asking questions.
Seeing this uproar, Nicholas resisted the urge to laugh, and she had to admit that the boy in front of her was still cute sometimes.
"What's the problem? Say! β
"So from what you know about the Anomalous, what kind of class do I belong to?"
"You should belong to category D, although your defense ability is no different from ordinary people, but you are difficult to kill, this is also a kind of defense in disguise."
He thought about it for a while, and felt that it was really as Nicholas said, so far he had gone to the Ghost Gate Pass three times, but every time he miraculously slipped back, I have to say that this is really an alternative defense.
"And then, what else?" He asked after thinking about it.
"Absolutely! I just mentioned that the Gongjin Association divided the abilities into four categories, but later they found that just classification is not enough, because the abilities of the same type of abilities are also strong and weak, so they later proposed 6 ability levels through research to evaluate the ability of people with the same ability. From weak to strong, they are d, c, b, a, s and x, and the first four are easy to understand, which simply represent the strength of ability. S is taken from the initial of Super, which means super ability, and S ranks are usually found in both combat and defense categories, but the number is extremely rare. X means unknown and cannot be assessed, and this level is only a legend so far, as no one has been rated X by the Fellows. However, I don't think even the Kyojinkai itself knows what kind of ability level can be rated as X. β
"What do you think of my level?"
"I've been dealing with Adepts for many years, and it seems to me that you're a D-class of D-class Adepts."
There was a visibly frustration to hear that his ability rating was the last D-class, but Nicholas's next words were even more devastating.
"The ability classification and rating I just talked about are just a foreshadowing, and the next thing to focus on is the point. Because the Kyojin Society has put forward a slogan of 'co-evolution', the scientists of the Kyojin Association have been working tirelessly for this slogan, and they have also proposed a 'co-evolution plan' that includes three research directions, the first is 'the transformation and transplantation of ordinary human beings', the second is 'the transformation and transplantation of abnormal species', and the third is 'ability strength upgrade'. According to these three research directions, they did many, many experiments, but the results were the same, all failed. In the end, due to the long-term inconclusiveness, financial problems and internal public opinion and many other factors, the "co-evolution program" had to be temporarily stopped, and the scientific research group finally submitted a "research report on the 'co-evolution program'" to the joint progress meeting, which clearly pointed out three points: 1. The only way to obtain the ability of human aliens is natural evolution; 2. The type of ability of the person with the ability cannot be changed or transferred; 3. The strength level of the ability's ability will be maintained at a certain level for a long time, and it will not be affected by external conditions.
Do you understand all three? β
"Of course, it's simple. The first point means that whether a human being is an alien or not is basically determined when he is still a fertilized egg. The meaning of the second point has already been said very bluntly. The third point is that my ability is a powerful self-healing ability, and as far as the healing ability of ordinary people is concerned, this ability is non-subjective, that is to say, I can't control it, it is completely a natural process. At the same time, according to the third point of the report, my ability will not become stronger because of my frequent injuries, nor will it be weakened because I have not received injuries for a long time. Am I right? β
Nicholas nodded in satisfaction, in her opinion the lesson was not in vain.
"So, in the future, you still don't want to do stupid things like today, it won't lead to anything."
After saying that, Nicholas packed up the dishes for Announce's breakfast and was about to leave Anngul's bedroom, but just as she was about to tear the space to the kitchen, Uproar grabbed her.
"Nicholas, how do you explain that?"
Nicholas looked at Xuan Ran's eyes full of surprise, because she saw that Xuan Ran's originally red skin was rapidly changing to a normal complexion, and finally Xuan Ran's whole body returned to its normal color, only there were still some burn marks on his chest, which was a pattern composed of Xuan Ran's deliberately burned skin.
The pattern is impressively three letters in English: ICC "This...... iccοΌ β
"icancontrol."
After explaining the meaning of ICC, the skin on his chest became the same as other parts, as if the burn had never happened. But Yu Ran didn't think of this, he took Nicholas' hand and used her sharp nails to scratch his face left and right, the nails cut the skin, and blood flowed out of the wound, and then Yu Ran asked Nicholas if he wanted to let the wound on that side heal first, Nicholas subconsciously said left, she just finished speaking, the wound on the left side of the face of Xuan Ran really healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The uproar erased the blood there, and it turned out that there was nothing left at the wound except for a white mark, and the wound on the right side of the face was still bleeding at this time!
"How can this be explained?" Asked Nicholas with a smile.
Nicholas did not answer, because even though she had been around for a long time and had a lot of experience, she could not give a reasonable explanation to the uproar at this moment.
If the two "performances" of the uproar are desserts before the meal, then the next one is the main meal.
"You're surprised?"
"Yes!" Nicholas replied in the affirmative.
"Is it because the strength of the abilities I just demonstrated is contrary to the research results of the scientists of the Communist Party?"
"Well, in a way, yes. If your self-healing abilities are really increasing, it will not only be contrary to the results of their research, but will also break the three truths that are recognized by all paraprofessionals in the world. β
"Is this alone the overthrow of 'truth'? I don't think it's enough. There was sarcasm and confidence in the uproar's tone.
Uproar turned around in Nicholas' puzzled expression, and what appeared in front of Nicholas's eyes was a delicate tattoo of a phoenix undergoing nirvana in the sun. The immortal bird was reshaping its body with the help of the sun's energy, its upper body had been completed, and its wings had spread slightly beyond the sun's flames, and it was almost ready to swim in the sky again if it had absorbed enough energy. Although the tattoo was lifelike, Nicholas had already seen it, and there was nothing else to see it except to give her a little visual impact.
But the next scene completely shocked her.
Because, that phoenix is moving, really moving!
Nicholas saw the phoenix tattooed on Xuan's back slowly changing. The orange flames that were originally burning around the phoenix were converging towards the phoenix, and the phoenix absorbed those flames were getting bigger, the feathers on its body were constantly plumping, the phoenix's tail was constantly extending, and even the eyes were becoming more narrow and sharp. At this moment, it seems that it is no longer a picture tattooed on a human body, but a real creature, a divine bird that is being reborn in Nirvana!
At this time, the uproar seemed to be experiencing nirvana, the beads of sweat the size of beans had filled his forehead, and his body was also trembling, and finally I don't know if it was due to physical exhaustion or shaking too much and lost his balance, and he actually knelt on one knee with a "bang", his hands were also crossed on his chest, and the ten fingers on the back of his shoulders were deeply buckled into the skin, and he was struggling to pull his shoulders, as if helping the phoenix that was in nirvana to spread its wings.
Bright red blood seeped out of his skin, and he roared hoarsely. With this roar, the phoenix finally absorbed the flames around it and spread its wings, which were as wide as sails.
At this time, what Nicholas heard was no longer an uproar, but the sound of the phoenix in the nine days.
Pride, incomparable!
At this moment, Nicholas no longer saw the back of the uproar, but the vast sky.
A divine phoenix is soaring among them!
Nicholas stood alone in the Xuanran bedroom, and she didn't even bother to put the Xuanran, who had lost consciousness and collapsed to the floor, because her mind was now full of negative words such as "shouldn't, unreasonable, impossible to ......".
