In addition to the name, there are also some research materials on this strange thing.

It wasn't until this time that Qiao Qiao knew that there were not a few existences like Sayoko and Kanji Sakagami.

Old Gods. The wish first appeared ten years ago, and during this time, there were five appearances monitored by the Wakuni Soul Eradicator Association alone, and six times with Kanji Sakagami.

The description of this weirdness is similar every time it appears.

It takes the form of a human being, and affected individuals are usually unable to recall its specific appearance, gender, age, or characteristics, leaving only an impression that is relatively easy to get close to.

It appears when the affected person is alone, and is not limited to location, but seems to prefer to be outdoors in secluded places.

The Weird will chat with the affected person for a period of time, and the content will be difficult for the affected person to recall for the most part, but it is not an embarrassing topic, but rather a light-hearted topic.

At the end of the conversation, the weird will ask the affected person what they most want to fulfill.

When the affected person speaks out, the weirdness disappears.

And this wish will be realized to varying degrees and there will be certain distortions.

Qiao Qiao looked at the documents in the appendix at the back.

Affected No. 1 is a 10-year-old Japanese woman.

She disappeared for a while and reappeared, with a wish to become "the happiest girl in the world".

According to research, all harmful actions directed at the Affected Person 1 will be refracted to other subjects, and the negative emotions of the Affected Person 1 will be diverted.

Under the influence of certain complex mechanisms, affected persons 1 will gain a certain amount of good luck.

Currently, Subject 1 is being properly housed in the Society's containment facility.

"It's Sayoko."

Qiao Qiao quickly thought of the girl who lived in his house.

Affected Person No. 2 is a 40-year-old Japanese male.

He has a family, works in a club, and his wish is "to escape from such a tiring life."

After making a wish, Affected Person 2 suddenly vanished, and when he reappeared, he was already in an abandoned and uninhabited school.

According to research, if another human appears within 50 meters of the affected person, he will randomly teleport to the nearest place where no other human exists within a radius of 50 meters.

Despite containment by the Society and a promise to remove the anomaly from him, Affected Subject II committed suicide a month after the strange encounter.

“......”

Originally, Qiao Qiao thought that this weirdness would only produce abnormal characteristics like Sayoko and Kanji Sakagami, which were beneficial to the main body, but now it seems that those two are really just pure luck.

Qiao Qiao also read the information of several other affected people.

Except for Sayoko and Kanji Sakagami, the other four have all died for various reasons.

"What is the code name of this old god?"

Qiao Qiao raised his head and asked Miss Sakura.

"You should know, Heguo divides weirdness into three categories, spirits, demons, and ghosts."

On the side, Ms. Sakura, who was working on documents on a computer, stopped tapping on the keyboard.

"Actually, there's a fourth category of weirdness."

"Although it is a little inappropriate for me, a shrine maiden who has expired, but, Qiao San, in fact, most of the gods in the world now believe in gods."

Miss Sakura smiled a little bitterly.

"The so-called belief in gods is the gods that are born by absorbing the beliefs of human beings, of course, the core of these gods is something else, but in the long history, because faith exceeds its own power, these gods have gradually become what people say in legends."

"I guessed about that."

Qiao Qiao said that other places are not discussed, but there are many examples of humans becoming ghosts and gods after death, such as Emperor Meiji of Meiji Jingu, or Sugawara Michizane of Tenmangu Shrine, or Tokugawa Ieyasu of Toshogu Palace.

Of course, Qiao Qiao has never been in contact with these gods, so naturally he doesn't know how different they are from himself in history.

However, Miss Sakura's statement about the core of the gods still made Qiao Qiao feel a little strange.

"For example, a certain weird was accidentally contacted by humans, and because he helped humans, he obtained a god's name and faith, and then became a god of faith, and finally, weird is no longer weird, but becomes a god, and his original form will also change with people's beliefs, and even, if the faith collapses, he will be hit hard because of this, and even fall directly."

Sakura-sans explained.

"Although I don't know the exact number, there are a considerable number of gods in the country of He, and they all change in this way."

"And the fourth type of weirdness is the Old Gods."

"The Old Gods refer to powerful monacities that have existed far beyond human history since the formation of the earth, and these monstrities, if they help humanity and absorb faith, will become gods of faith to protect humanity."

"But if they don't go down this path, they will become a major threat to humanity."

"According to the current archaeological research in the spirit world, in ancient times, there were at least more than one war between the gods of faith and the old gods, because the gods of faith were able to obtain a steady stream of power from humans, so the old gods were quickly defeated, most of them were sealed, and the only ones that remained were survived and difficult to recover."

Miss Sakura looked at Qiao Qiao, who was taking notes very seriously.

"The strangeness of Mt. Hiei being sealed before should be an old god, and the one that appeared in Tokyo Bay is also an old god, and most of the names of these old gods are determined by form or characteristics, because the language used by these old gods is not decipherable by humans, so we have no way of knowing their names."

Old Gods. Hundred-footed, Old Gods. Spiders, these are the two weird names that the association gave to Mt. Hiei and Tokyo Bay.

If you look at it this way, Tom of Hawaii should also be the Old God, and he should be called the Old God. Cats?

Qiao Qiao divergent thinking.

"Jossan, while it may be a bit sensational to say this, I think that the frequency of incidents about the Old Gods has increased a bit lately, and this may be some kind of omen, perhaps something bigger disaster is coming."

Miss Sakura was a little worried.

"Then again, Miss Sakura, why is it that the strange guardian of human beings can become stronger when they gain faith, or what is the relationship between spiritual power and human beings, so that human beings are the most suitable creatures to use spiritual power?"

Qiao Qiao has always been a little incomprehensible.

Human beings have the highest utilization of spiritual power.

However, spiritual power has a limited strengthening effect on the human body itself.

It's like urging humans to release their excess spiritual power and flow into the gods in the form of faith.

Human beings are like a huge storage battery, which can generate power for the gods to draw on, and in order to become stronger, they will protect humans, and after becoming gods, they have to protect humans to maintain their own existence.

This ingenious design seems to have appeared to perpetuate the existence of human beings.

"Well...... this"

Miss Sakura smiled wryly.

"There is a saying that human beings themselves are the family of some old god, and that old god has given human beings such power, so that they will not be completely destroyed by other strange clans while they are sleeping."

"People and weirdness are originally two sides of the same coin."
