Chapter 58: What is Original Sin?
"What do you mean?" Wu Qinyuan's face suddenly became very ugly.
"Elder Wu, have you ever thought about why we set up the Thunder Dragon Brigade for the Ministry of Disasters?"
"Because Inhumans are the most effective means of fighting Inhumans." Wu Qinyuan didn't know why Commissioner Zhang suddenly mentioned this, hesitated for a moment, and replied
"So, why is the most effective way to fight Inhumans the Inhumans?" Commissioner Zhang didn't seem surprised by Wu Qinyuan's answer, and continued to ask with a slight smile
"Because Inhuman's abilities are tricky, it's difficult for ordinary people to deal with, and it's easy for ordinary people to be affected when they come into contact with Inhuman." Wu Qinyuan replied
"You're right, you're not right." Commissioner Zhang straightened his neckline and said lightly, "Since the establishment of the Ministry of Disasters, I don't know how many Inhumans have accepted and transformed into combat power, but do you know how many Inhumans in the compilation have achieved a life-ending result?" ”
"It's... Not much, presumably. Wu Qinyuan was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "This is the matter that your Sword Pavilion is responsible for, right?" ”
"That's right, then I'll tell you, except for the monster that can't die in S City, there is no one!" Commissioner Zhang looked at Wu Qinyuan and repeated, "One! All! No! ”
"It can't be! There are so many people in the ministry who have signed ten-year contracts..."Wu Qinyuan was surprised by this result, and couldn't help but exclaim
"You are a talent who focuses on technical positions, and the previous generations of Thunder Dragon team members stationed in S City are extraordinary, so it's not surprising that you don't know about it, but in fact, the reason why the ministry has set the contract period at ten years is because the vast majority of Inhumans can't last ten years at all. If these strangers don't work for the ministry and honestly regard themselves as ordinary people, they may be able to last a little longer, but if they use their abilities, then it is only rare to last for ten years. Commissioner Zhang said in an indifferent tone the facts that made Wu Qinyuan creepy.
"So... To put it this way... Is all this just a hoax in the ministry? ”
"Scam? That's not true. The purpose of the Ministry of Disasters is clear, which is to eliminate all Inhumans, which is written in Article 1 on the first page of the Code of Conduct, and has never been hidden from any Inhumans. ”
"You can do that, but..."
"Old Wu, don't you still understand? Inhumans themselves should not exist in this world. Their very existence is distorting reality, and every alien, the more advanced they are, the more likely they are to one day become a channel for those beings to spy on the present world, and the sooner they are eliminated, the sooner they will eliminate hidden dangers. Commissioner Zhang said quietly
"To deal with Inhumans, you don't have to be Inhumans. As long as it is an ordinary person who has received the 'divine revelation', he can be responsible for fighting against the Inhuman. After all, the real danger is the aliens who live in the higher dimensions, and these aliens who exist as catalysts are nothing more than a stable mistake. DESTROYING THE INHUMANS IS A VERY SIMPLE JOB, YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT OUR BLADE BRIGADE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OBLITERATION OF THE INHUMANS IN THE BETRAYAL DEPARTMENT, SO FAR, THERE ARE VERY FEW INHUMANS WHO CAN RESIST THE 125MM SMOOTHBORE CANNON DIRECT SPECIAL ALLOY ARMOR-PIERCING SHELLS, AND THOSE THAT CAN SURVIVE THE ATTACK OF CRUISE MISSILES, WE HAVE NOT FOUND IT SO FAR. ”
"So, why do you need to form the Thunder Dragon Brigade?" Wu Qinyuan asked in a trembling voice
"Because, not all Inhumans are harmful to society from the beginning, in fact, many Inhumans are only J3 at the beginning, no matter how Inhumans should not exist in this world, we can't kill indiscriminately for no reason." Commissioner Zhang said quietly
"So, the ministry set up the Thunder Dragon Brigade to organize these inhumans who are willing to cooperate into combat power, forcing them to use their abilities, and eventually causing them to lose control, so as to get a reason to erase them?"
"First, the ministry has never forced the Inhumans to use their abilities, I said that dealing with the Inhumans only requires the operatives to reach the level of ordinary people who have obtained divine revelations, and it is enough, in fact, the first lesson that the Thunder Dragon Brigade teaches to the Inhumans in the formation is how to restrain their anomalies." Commissioner Zhang raised three fingers and explained
"Second, judging from the current research results, it is true that the use of power will greatly increase the speed of loss of control, but even if the ability is not used, it is only a matter of time before the Inhumans go out of control. There are many records in the ministry that can last for a long time, but it is still the same sentence, there is no one who can last until the end of life! And ten years is a hurdle, and the vast majority of Inhumans can't hold on. ”
"Third, no matter how low-level an Inhuman is, even if it is a low-level F-level Inhuman, one day he will lose his mind and go out of control, and it is not that the low level will last long, and there is no essential difference from the results. That is to say, at the moment when they are determined to become aliens, they are no longer part of our world, and they are on the path to depravity every moment. ”
Wu Qinyuan found it difficult to accept Commissioner Zhang's words, but he wanted to refute but he didn't know where to start, for the study of aliens, the Sword Pavilion was the absolute authority. The number of Inhumans he has come into contact with in his life is only a single digit, not to mention the study of Inhumans. However, he was unwilling to be nailed to the pillar of shame of a traitor.
"But if it gets out of control, shouldn't it turn into a killing machine without humanity? From last night to now, there is no sign of him using his powers, doesn't this mean that he is still sane and has not lost control at all? Wu Qinyuan grabbed the last straw like a drowning man, and argued forcibly
"Completely out of control will turn into a beast without reason, this is just the propaganda of the ministry, in fact, the loss of control of the alien is far from that simple." Commissioner Zhang did not lose patience with Wu Qinyuan's stubbornness, and still explained seriously
"Actually, it's true that most Inhumans behave like beasts that only know how to kill when they get out of control, but in essence, Inhumans are not out of control, but awakened, and they are completely transformed into another world, or another kind of creature that is different from the world we know. Because of completely different values and ways of thinking, we can't understand it, so it's called out of control. In fact, it can be called a different level of civilization, and it cannot be simply defined. ”
"But, so far, the behavior of the injured year is still very much in line with the way of thinking of normal people, right?" Wu Qinyuan refused to admit defeat
"yes, so it's more dangerous." Commissioner Zhang said coldly, "This shows that he took the initiative to go to that world as a 'person'!" For the ministry, all the actions of the members of the Xiaolong Brigade must obey Long Mu's command, which is the only criterion to define their human side, regardless of whether Long Mu Shangguan Shanshui was injured by the hands of the injured people, his lack of protection by Long Mu's side is ironclad evidence of the mutiny! ”
Wu Qinyuan felt as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer in his chest, and sat down on the bed with a muffled grunt. In fact, he had long understood that Shangguan Shanshui was dying, but the delay in showing up for the injured years had already explained everything, but he was unwilling, he still had a glimmer of hope for him. Now this only, self-deceptive fantasy has also been ruthlessly pierced by the other party.
"So, what do we do next?" Wu Qinyuan breathed a sigh of relief and gradually calmed down, no matter what, he was an old member of the ministry after all, and after countless winds and waves, he was the supreme commander and person in charge of the coyote brigade stationed in S City. Although he had been devastated by repeated blows because of his personal feelings, he finally regained his strength at this moment.
"As I said at the beginning, we should now find out the cause of the defection, his location, and the mysterious B-class Inhuman, and then respond accordingly." Seeing that Wu Qinyuan finally decided to cooperate, Commissioner Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.
"If there are doubts, there are indeed a lot." Wu Qinyuan thought for a while and said seriously, "Now it seems that everything in the previous month is extraordinary. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Commissioner Zhang was in good spirits and interested
"I think about it, now it seems that everything has to start with a case in late February..."Wu Qinyuan slowly sorted out the scattered thoughts, and narrated them eloquently, from the Ma Wen case to the Li Yaozhan case, the delayed reinforcements from the ministry, the unusual rock chips, and the investigation process dragged out by the duo until yesterday, when the police sent a large number of strange collections for identification, one by one, they were described in detail. Wu Qinyuan was originally a full professor with an academic background, and at the same time led the coyote brigade responsible for the aftermath and intelligence collation for many years. Commissioner Zhang couldn't help but nod again and again, with a look of admiration.
Although the words were concise, it took half an hour for Wu Qinyuan to finish the narrative.
"With that said, it's more serious than we expected." Commissioner Zhang only said in a deep voice, "And it's not that the ministry is slow to reinforce, in fact, the ministry has not received any reports requesting reinforcements at all. ”
"How is this possible? Wounded Liu Nian clearly said that Shangguan Shanshui had already applied for support from the ministry! ”
"When did he say that?" Commissioner Zhang asked
"Just one day before the incident, he sent me the confiscated catalysts."
"Did Shangguan Shanshui come with him?"
"No, it's just him..."
"So Shangguan Shanshui has already applied to the ministry for support?"
"It's just his words!" Wu Qinyuan suddenly realized that something was wrong!
"Elder Wu, you should recall that since the night of the incident, how long has it been since you had seen Shangguan Shanshui before!" Commissioner Zhang asked, "When was the last time I saw Shangguan Shanshui?" ”
"For the last time... The last time was the New Year, February 4th! Wu Qinyuan was shocked to realize that he hadn't seen Shangguan Shanshui for a month. In retrospect, this was an unusual thing, as they were elders of the two departments, and they were in frequent contact with each other. But almost every time after the year, he came to him alone in the year of injury, which is too unreasonable.
"It seems that the rebellion of the wounded years was not improvised." Commissioner Zhang said, "Elder Wu, do you know why I want to introduce you so much about the Blade Brigade and the Inhumans today?" ”
"I don't know, but it's not just about convincing me, right?" Wu Qinyuan knew that what Commissioner Zhang said to him before revealed too many secrets at the confidential level. Each team in the ministry has its own division of labor, and the information that the Sword Pavilion has should not have been leaked to an outsider like him so casually.
"Now the situation in S City is worrying, the ministry believes that it is necessary to reorganize the situation, and when we come, the ministry has already reported to the state, and the above will send special personnel to assist us to facilitate our actions. I also think the two cases you mentioned just now are very suspicious, and the next work will be taken over by the Ministry of Disaster and the government commissioner, so as not to involve the police in S City anymore. In short, there are many things that need to be done, and we need the help of professionals like you, who are familiar with the situation in S City and loyal to the ministry. ”
"These are the things that our coyote brigade does, I think if that's the case, Commissioner Zhang, you don't have to tell me so much detail, right? Besides, you don't necessarily trust me much at first. ”
"Old Wu, you're laughing." Commissioner Zhang smiled awkwardly, he had been in control of the situation calmly since he entered the door, but he seemed a little hesitant at this moment, "I don't know if Wu Lao Ke is interested in joining the Blade Brigade?" ”
"Join the Sword Pavilion?" Wu Qinyuan was a little puzzled: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"In fact, for the erasure of the traitor, the Sword Pavilion also gave a plan of action."
"So?" Wu Qinyuan vaguely guessed what the other party wanted to say
"The ministry hopes that you will be transferred to the Blade Brigade, as the head of the Blade Brigade in S City, and concurrently serve as Ren Yuan's Long Mu, to crusade against the wounded years!"
