23 Identification
Wednesday.
Nothing interesting happened on Tuesday, omitted. Wednesday mornings were boring too, so we started in the afternoon—
Zach spent a lot of time finding someone to order a mirror and sent it. 'Jian' glanced at it, "It's ugly, but it's okay." A slap on the mirror, Zach didn't have time to feel sorry for the money he spent was shattered, and only a frame was left - those who remember the materials faxed from the Republic before should still remember that this mirror with republican mythological significance has a very special frame, and the wide border is printed with a unique mark, and the mark of the 'Heavenly Machine' can be revealed by permutations and combinations.
The markings converge towards the hollow of the frame after the mirror shatters, and then a stream of colorful light ejects from the shattered mirror fragments scattered on the ground. After a dazzling flurry, he rushed out of Grande. Streamers of light burst into the sky, then westward (Barton is the easternmost city of the Confederacy).
Zach instantly had a sense of foreboding, as if he had done something that would affect the entire Federation.
"'Jian'?"
'Jian' didn't even ask Zach what he wanted to ask, "It's too late to regret it, I've taken over the presentation and appraisal of all images in the Federation." ”
Zach frowned, "You took advantage of me. ”
"Relax, until now, the only creatures in the Federation who have deceived the world with images are you and some of your descendants, plus Gangaro by the side of the saints of your faith (Holy Lord)...... Wait a minute, there seem to be a lot of vampires in the middle of the Federation who hold the same abilities as you. (Asammet, who shares the surname with Toredo)
The word 'jian' is very interesting, it says that the image ability that vampires gain is to deceive the world. This is completely contrary to Frank's statement that he is favored by the world because he presents images~
Zach didn't have time to delve into whether the image ability was positive or negative for the world, and Zach was only unhappy that he was using himself now, "What do you mean?" "Zach regretted that he shouldn't have agreed to his request before he fully understood the ability to learn. The result now seems to have entered the realm of God, and Zach cannot reverse it.
"It means that my abilities are in the Federation, and now they are only useful to these vampires who have deceptive image abilities. You don't have to feel guilty, you haven't completely changed the way the lives of the aliens in the Federation are present. What they would have seen in the mirror will still be the same. ”
It's hard to feel at ease, "What about the vampires who have the ability to image, including me?"
"I didn't expose your girlfriend in your Barton newspapers, did I. ”
Zach frowned, "Can you uncover the true colors of us [vampires with image abilities]?" ”
"Want to try it? ”
"Nope. The foreboding came true, and Zach was now aware of the threat. Very targeted threats.
Tsk, the application of the image ability has just become clear, and the god who restrains this ability has appeared?*, the world doesn't love Zack anymore.
"Don't forget, I took the initiative to reach you, federal vampire, Zachary Toledo, I'm not your enemy. "There is no sincerity in this sentence of 'Jian'. The real sincerity is that after it appeared at Grande, it bluntly stated that it wanted to find Zack, but only revealed its purpose after tricking Zach into helping it control all the images of the Federation......
No, it still hasn't said its purpose, 'Jian' waved his hand again, and the mirror fragments, including the frame, disappeared, "You've fulfilled your promise, it's time for me to finish mine." "A flipped mirror appeared in the air, enveloping the 'Jian' who had just finished speaking, and it seemed to have disappeared into another dimension before Zack's eyes.
Zach didn't have to wait long before the flipped mirror reappeared, "I've seen that corpse in your Grande basement, are you ready to listen to my appraisal of that corpse?" ”
Zach had been waiting for this test for two days, and of course he was ready. However, if you don't ask now, I'm afraid you won't have the opportunity to ask in the future, "When you asked me to make you a mirror, you said it was for ease of movement." But now you're still disappearing and appearing at random as before, and you're lying to me?"
"I didn't lie to you. Didn't you notice? I don't disappear and appear in a different way than I used to. Flipping the mirror to wrap around Jian's body again, "Look, this is the mirror you made for me." ”
Zack's vision was a little confused, because because of the refraction of the mirror, the Hannah shape 'Jian' was cut into countless parts in the mirror that was flipped out of thin air at various angles, and Zach was not sure which mirror he should look at.
But...... It does look like a mirror shard that has just shattered to the ground......
Zach frowned, "All I can say is that the way you appear and disappear now is even more inhuman. ”
Let's put it this way, the way 'Jian' appeared before - directly coming out from behind Zack to speak, it was just frightening at best. Now, if you see a pile of mirror fragments floating in the air, and there is a faint image of a woman in it, you will be scared to pee. Do you remember Hannah who was in the basement cell of the Southern District Police Department, and was fortunate enough to contact this republican god for the first time in the Federation, and her motor nerves were completely out of balance~
"I'm not human. Jian's response was very simple, "But I understand your concern, you don't want me to cause panic in human society, then I can tell you very responsibly, only in this way, I have my own entity in the Federation, can I avoid causing panic in human society." ”
"Please explain. Zach looked like he was willing to listen.
"You probably don't understand how I came to the Federation. "I told you, I saw a picture of Louise, so I came." At this point, he paused, as if he was deliberately giving time to see if Zach could react on his own.
Zach frowned, read out the intentions of 'Jian', and tried to run his mind as best he could, trying to draw conclusions...... Fail.
"I didn't quite come to the Federation before, and what you saw of me before was the same as the Louise you saw in the newspapers, a part of the picture taken from reality. ”
Zack's head tilted to the side unconsciously, as if he understood, but also as if he didn't understand anything.
"The picture of Louise was taken at Barton's Fenway Field, and the image of Louise in the picture was within my purview, so I was given the control of the image in the photo. With this passage, I arrived at Fenway Park in Barton......"
Zach suddenly interjected with an epiphany, "You didn't come to the Federation from reality, you came from the world of images!"
"Then, Louise's image was not only in the newspaper photos, but I soon discovered that in addition to the still photos at Fenway Park, the moving images—the videos—continued from Fenway Park all the way to the Grand Grande. I followed this recorded world of images to the Grande. He looked at Zach and paused again.
Well, Zach now fully understood, and there was an indescribable helplessness in his face, "The video I shot at Grande will be the same as the image where Louise's image is. "Uh, the same frame of the two images," made you find me. ”
Now 'Jian' nodded, "Initially, I could only appear in certain locations in Barton through Louise's images. "Do you need an explanation? mirrors, shop windows on the street, water surfaces...... We can complete the encounter with our images, and by the way, we can play with the hair-styled locations~ These specific locations, not much, not much, but the key, "Do you think that my movements seem to be free, disappear when I want to disappear, and appear when I want to?" That's because these locations are continuously photographed into the world where you and Louise's images are located. Leave Grande and you'll find me like a ghost, sometimes appearing and sometimes disappearing. I can't even control me showing up where I want to be. ”
Zach pouted, this should be the immobility that 'Jian' said before - it can only move in the place where Zach and Louise's images are imaged, and except for the video road from Fenway Park to Grande, tsk. Ghosts, imagine.
Zach continued, "And this entity allows you to move completely freely?"
"Isn't it~" 'Jian's mood seems to have changed very well after showing his 'miracle', "Do you know what 'not asking for people' is?I don't need the image imaging location made by humans or nature in reality, I carry my own mirror with me~Isn't it free to move~"
Zach seemed to grasp a certain point, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "You imprint your own inhuman image to create a place where you can move freely in reality?"
Jian's good mood disappeared instantly, staring at Zach and not speaking.
Zach also immediately realized that this kind of thing about putting God with all the inhuman aliens would offend the other party, "Tell me the results." "This super hard topic shift, hey, there is no way to do it.
'Jian' continued its silent stare for a moment, and when it spoke, its eyes were on Zack's chest - that is, you could clearly realize that the person you were talking to didn't want to look at you, but just politely put their eyes in your direction.
"The corpse lying in your Grande's basement is the corpse of a vampire. ”
Tut.
Only outsiders from the Republic can make such a stupid identification. There is no common sense at all, and the natives of the Federation know that the corpse of a vampire is ash, the kind of ash that can fly all over the sky when it is blown.
Zach was silent for a moment, "Why did you make this identification?" ”
Still not looking at Zach, 'Jian' asked rhetorically, "What is the definition of a vampire?" ”
"The definition given to us by the Lord is that of a corrupted soul. ”
"That's it. "'Jian' is extremely fast, "What is left after the soul is corroded." Glance upwards and give Zach a look that doesn't show emotion, "Meet that definition, not a vampire, what?"
Zach frowned, giving 'Jian' enough respect and patience, "You're from the Republic, you don't have to use the federal definition of alien to identify a species. "It means that you don't care about the definition or anything, it's a matter of the Holy Lord's faith, you have nothing to do with the Holy Lord's faith, you don't have to cooperate.
"There is no species like this in the Republic. "'Jian' responded quickly again.
"Then tell me all the details you can see. ”
'Jian' didn't respond immediately this time, and glanced at Zach again, "Okay." "First of all, the soul, the traces of soul corruption and the vampire, your true face now looks exactly the same in my eyes. ”
Zach should have expected it, as soon as 'Jian' threw out the results of the 'vampire' identification, Zach knew that he was going to be ready for a personal attack. Sure enough—
"It's ugly, it's unbearable. "From the moment I came to Grande, I didn't care about the senses of Zach, the owner of Grande, right, "I can clearly see the trauma left by the disappearance of the soul imprint......
Whether it's upbringing or the truth, Zach doesn't care about any attacks anyway, and concentrates on what he cares about, "Is she physically ailmented?"
"No, I haven't talked about the body yet, don't interrupt. "Well, Zach can hold back, so everyone should bear it too! Please ignore the attitude of 'Jian', "It's the trauma caused by the asymmetry of soul imprints and body memory. ”
"Wait a minute, the asymmetry of soul imprints and body memories can cause trauma?" Zach, as the master of the Charm Pupil, how could he not know that such a thing happened...... No, it's not that Zach doesn't know, it's he, as the master of the Charm Pupil, who deliberately ignores this trauma.
Does Susan remember that Zach's false memories gave her an outrageously wrong perception of real time, and as a result, Susan went crazy and stayed in the nursing home for almost half a year without forgetting it.
And Brian, who was made out of a perverse and childish personality by Ian's incompletely mastered charm pupils!
It's not what trauma is. To put it simply, a person who plays with fire as a profession ignores fire and is a dangerous thing. So, don't worry too much about it, it's the same for everyone, it's just a matter of degree.
Jian's answer is a bit spiritual, "There is no trace of the soul imprint of childhood in the human body that has grown into an adult, and when I look at her, I feel like I am looking at an artificially made product that has no origin." ”
Zach wasn't going to ask how 'Jian' saw it, because he probably couldn't understand it, "What about her body? ”
"She has the same self-healing abilities as a vampire. Glancing at Zach, "Better than you." ”
Zach wanted to interject 'self-healing, 'self-healing ability is definitely not vampire's self-healing', think about it.
"And apparently this ability does not belong to her, it is a foreign object. Jian shook her head, "This kind of overly powerful external ability has robbed her of the self-healing ability that belongs to human beings in her body. ”
Zach interjected, "You're saying that the vampire's ability to heal itself destroyed her immunity as a human, causing her to suffer from those diseases and eventually die?"
"Are you surprised, you're a vampire, do you think your current self-healing ability hasn't ruined your ability to heal yourself as a human?"
Zach never thought about it...... Who would ever have a tank and miss the tractor they used to have?
'Jian' snorted, "The self-healing ability of human beings begins to decline after the body completes its development, and it becomes the aging of the human mouth. Have you aged since you became a vampire? ”
Well, let's accept the conclusion that vampires' ability to heal themselves, will ruin ...... Let's put it another way – to replace, to replace the original self-healing of human beings.
'Jian' saw that Zach was silent, and continued-
"The ability to heal herself is still maintaining her body, maintaining the appearance of a human corpse. Before Zach spoke, "Vampire blood." Strictly speaking, with the level of decay of her corpse, it is no longer blood, but the effect of maintaining the biological form is still there, just like the effect of you now relying on the blood in your body that has not yet decayed into a pile of black ash. "Zach is not rotten! Zach is white and beautiful!" "Don't you want to admit that it is a vampire corpse, you can go and drain her blood, thoroughly, you will see the vampire corpse that meets your expectations." "Ash!
However, this is not something that Zach can verify, and before Drake sends the project data of the Moyan Tsmich medical experiment, and before Zach gets more 'samples', Grandry's corpse is to be kept for Craig......
