Chapter XXXIV Collectibles Society

Uesugi Kiyoshi was silent for a long time.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this dream mirror world was very similar to his own mirage.

He has been in the mirage building for a long time, and he will also have mental fatigue, he can only stay in the mirage building for two hours a day now, and if he stays any longer, his body will be a little unable to support it.

But the feeling of soul collapse... He really hadn't experienced it.

But he also kept the information of the ghost and god invasion of the transcendent firmly in his heart, and he felt that the ghost god who was killed by him pulled him into the ghost realm, and the purpose was probably to bewitch his soul and then take it away.

"Your analogy is very vivid, Akutagawa Police Department, I probably understand the relationship between this dream mirror space and ghosts..."

"Let me ask you one more thing, I've never seen ghosts and gods in the real world, is there something that binds them and keeps them from coming to the real world?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi pondered for a moment and asked a question.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa nodded, then shook his head again.

"No, Uesugi-kun, it's true that most of the ghosts and gods can only operate in the dream mirror world."

"As for why... There are a few ancient legends involved, some of which I don't know much about. โ€

"It's good that you understand it this way - ghosts and gods are the pests of the world."

"Well... Although humans are not beneficial insects, ghosts and gods have a purer and more violent desire for destruction than humans, they use all things as bait, destroy as pleasure, and unscrupulously sway fear and disaster. โ€

"Do you think that the will of the world in which we live would like this pest?"

The answer is obvious... Therefore, under the impetus of the [Providence] in the underworld, all parts of the world have launched wars to seal ghosts and gods. โ€

"The history of the West is a history of war, and I don't know how many battlefields where transcendents and ghosts and gods are buried, so I won't count them one by one."

"In that ancient country across the sea from us, in ancient times, in the tribal era, there was a mythical story of the Yellow Emperor Yandi and Chiyou chasing the Central Plains, which described, Chiyou has eight feet, three heads and six arms, copper head and iron forehead, invulnerable, good at using knives, axes, Ge fighting, never dying, extremely brave, the Yellow Emperor is not capable of the enemy, please help the gods to break it."

"Replace Chiyou with ghosts and gods, and gods with transcendentals, do you think this story has a sense of dissonance?"

"In our country, during the Heian period, there was also a bloody battle between the Onmyoji and the youkai, and after that, the originally prosperous Yinyangdao vitality was greatly injured and could only recuperate, but those originally active youkai were all sealed into the dream mirror space."

"Until now, people and ghosts and gods are separated from each other, and under normal circumstances, they don't get along with each other in old age and death."

Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded silently, and then asked, "That... What about the ghosts and gods I met, and the Yokodano? I've never seen a mortal around me encounter a ghost... Why am I the only one who is special! โ€

Ryunosuke Akutagawa is a talker himself, and although Uesugi Kiyoshi asks a lot of questions, he doesn't bother at all.

"What ifโ€”I mean what if."

"If there are ghosts and gods who come to the real world through [seizure] or [descending], they can cause harm to mortals."

"But if they're only in the Dream Mirror World, their illusions won't work against mortals."

"Because mortals can't connect to the dream mirror world at all, those ghosts and gods can't find the object of their spells at all."

"What is not visible does not invade its heart."

"Mortals can't see ghosts and gods, so... They are safe most of the time. โ€

"The transcendent is different, stepping into the transcendent is equivalent to stepping into a dangerous battlefield, and at every moment, you may be greeted by ghosts and gods - that is their kind invitation."

"If you accept it, you will be divided into life and death, and if you refuse, you can also keep your peace for a while."

"That's why you're being targeted โ€“ look away, just get used to it."

"You see, I'm being targeted by Jรถrmunga, and I don't panic at all, because it's useless to panic."

"Transcendent people are the preferred prey of ghosts and gods."

"As for Yokodano..."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa frowned slightly, and a fleeting cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"Yokotano is not a ghost, he is a transcendent being."

"He is a secret ritual, a slave of a certain ghost god, strictly speaking, he has basically lost himself and has become a puppet of the ghost god."

Seeing the confusion on Uesugi Kiyoshi's face, Ryunosuke Akutagawa suddenly smiled.

"By the way, you haven't been in contact with the transcendental, and you don't know anything about these things."

"Transcendents are broadly divided into five types according to the source of their abilities."

"The linker who uses the [Mirror of Inheritance] to link the soul of the Immortal."

"Advocating science, devoting himself to [man conquers the sky], believing that he can be compared to the true knower of ghosts and gods with the body of a man."

"A practitioner who has the qualifications to practice a certain art, and through his own hard practice, he has obtained extraordinary powers--for example, your teacher, Shangquan Kenhao, who was the enemy of ghosts and gods in a certain dream mirror world, and brazenly slashed the thirty-seven ghosts and gods with one sword, saving half of the lives of Tokyo City, and also breaking into the great reputation of [Undefeated Shangquan]."

"There are also some human beings who have thrown themselves into the command of ghosts and gods for the sake of power, or who have been brainwashed and bewitched by ghosts and gods, and have obtained extraordinary power from ghosts and gods, this kind of people are called secret rituals, and basically all secret rituals are our enemies, and they are not on the side of human beings."

"Finally, there is an extremely rare kind of transcendental, which I have never even seen, and I have only seen some fragmentary information in the data."

"[Children of Destiny], there is no need to practice, no connection, no faith, and no learning, they are born with innate extraordinary abilities, and the use of this ability is like a human being who can breathe and a fish that can swim is a matter of course."

"Yokotano is the secret ritual of a certain ghost god, and his master should be lurking in the twin ghost group under the command of the Dongwen Society, hum..."

"That ghost and god have a grudge against me, and I can only live with him."

โ€œ... Well, there was a bit of a gaffe that made Uesugi-kun smile. โ€

Uesugi Kiyoshi was a little distracted when he heard the name "Tobunkai", and then after a little thought, the eyes that looked at Akutagawa Ryunosuke became a little strange.

"I see..."

"I thought it was a duplicate name..."

"The linker who links the souls of the Immortals..."

"Akutagawa Police Department, could it be that you are..."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa smiled slightly, took a step back, his cane crossed his chest, and leaned over to make a gentlemanly salute.

"It's Uesugi-kun, and he reacts quickly."

"Well, let's re-introduce myself."

"I'm the president of the Tokyo chapter of the Collectibles Association."

"It's also the link that links the heroic soul of the great writer [Ryunosuke Akutagawa]."

"On behalf of the Collectibles Association, I would like to extend an invitation to Mr. Uesugi."

"I need Uesugi-kun's strength, please join us!"
