1612 The Sorcerer appears
At this time, it is always more reassuring to have one more person than to be alone, but this sense of peace of mind does not mean that the actual situation will be safer. It can be said that since you are involved in mysterious events, the number of people is no longer a factor in ensuring safety. And in order to ensure efficiency, it is acceptable for each person to act alone. In horror movies, the lone person is always more dangerous than the crowd, and even if the occult expert is faced with an environment similar to the scene in these horror movies, the rules that really make you safer are very different from the rules shown in horror movies, and in some ways even diametrically opposed.
In Doomsday Vision, even organized occult experts are not unleashed in the same mystical event and believe that it is safer to act alone than in a group. This is one of the reasons why sometimes there are multiple participants involved in the same project, but they are not very closely connected with each other.
Under normal circumstances, because it is possible to predict the problems that will be faced in a plan, it is regarded as a more scientific and efficient practice to coordinate in advance, and to formulate a detailed plan and perform its own duties, but no one can determine what will happen in advance in a mysterious event, and it is possible to make a plan in advance, but there is no opportunity to implement it, or even carry it out according to the plan, but in the end it will cause heavy casualties and losses on its own side by chance.
Rather than planning actions in a regular manner, it is better to let the occult expert choose what he sees as the best way to move in the unknown dangers of immediate change based on his own experience and ability. In post-mortem statistics, the latter tend to give more desirable results. From this point of view, whether it is the Tactical Cooperation and Self-Innovation Committee, or the establishment of the Undead Crew Association, it is actually detrimental to everyone on the ship as a whole. But it should be in favor of the case of a small number of individuals.
Before planning the establishment of the organization, the female officer proposed that "the unification of the majority is to make better use of the power of unity to defeat the attacking enemy with organization and planning", if it is only in the literal sense, in fact, it is not the consensus of all occult experts. The people who were gathered. Whether forced or spontaneous, in the face of unknown mysteries, will it be safer, more advantageous, more efficient, than it was before it was organized, and it cannot be proven until the actual results are known—but there seems to be a deeper meaning behind this statement. In the interpretation of Takakawa and the captain at the time, these meanings concealed the purpose of the female officer to do this to hasten the white-hot battle.
Eventually, things got to this point.
However, even at this time, no one can be sure of what kind of strange and mysterious situation will arise in the midst of a situation that can be confirmed to continue to deteriorate, and in the face of such an unknown situation. No one can know in advance whether the establishment of the two organizations will be good. It's still bad, it's not at all, it's a mixed bag. Although the result of "the ship will sink and the majority will die" is certain, every detail changes. It will take some people out of the "majority of people who are bound to die", and at the same time put others on the list of "certain deaths".
Before death really comes to them, no one can be sure whether they are lucky or not.
Precisely because there are so many things that cannot be predicted in advance, inside and outside the ship. They are all covered by a thick fog, making it impossible to see the course and the future. Therefore, in fact, all mystical experts who are not controlled are only acting according to their own judgments and intuition, without any objective evidence to prove the correctness of their decisions and actions.
Takakawa and Captain are no exception.
If the proposal to establish an undead crew guild can be agreed to by the occult experts who have not yet joined the Tactical Cooperation and Self-Renewal Committee, it is not because the proposal is objectively correct, but simply because, in the circumstances, it is attractive enough for the occultists to bet.
In other words, if the foundation of the War Self Association is the strong consciousness walking ability of female officers, then the foundation of the Undead Crew Association is that the interior environment that has changed since the establishment of the War Self Association is that this proposal has a full demagogic charm. Although it does not rely on the power of consciousness to directly interfere with the consciousness of others, it is also an indirect, seemingly mild, but essential interference with the subjective consciousness of others.
Its charm, to a large extent, must be compared with the Zhanzi Association in order to be reflected. On the other hand, if the War Itself Association is not established, then there is no basis for the Undead Crew Association to be established.
So, the problem turned back.
The establishment of the Committee for Tactical Cooperation and Self-Renewal feels illegitimate. So, is the establishment of the Undead Crew Club correct and just?
In the minds of ordinary people, there may be different opinions, but both Takakawa and the captain know that in the minds of mysterious experts, this answer is actually very consistent and simple - the establishment of the Immortal Crew Association is definitely not just, correct or not, and it must be reviewed afterwards to draw a positive conclusion, but its establishment will definitely be recognized by many people.
When this proposal appeared, it was doomed, and mysterious experts who did not plan to participate in the Battle Self Meeting would be interested in the undead crew. This is determined by the occult expert's sensitivity to his own situation and way of thinking, not the nature of the Undead Crew.
The captain thought that Takakawa's proposal for an "immortal crew meeting" was a stroke of genius. He showed great interest and urgency in the establishment of this organization. After obtaining clues from Takakawa's hidden few mysterious experts, he expanded the undead crew to thirty-two people in just three hours—except for the crew members who had been under his control, almost half of them were mysterious experts who boarded the ship as passengers.
This number did make up a third of the total number of people on board the ship—and there were very few lone wanderers who were supposed to be on the roster, who were not on the roster, who were neither members of the Tactical Cooperation and Self-Renewal Committee, nor members of the Undead Crew's Guild.
Just as Takakawa thought, the gloomy atmosphere inside the ship began to show signs of being contained, and the smell of turmoil gradually calmed down. The Fighting Self-Awareness Association, led by female officers, did not stop its actions because of this change. However, there is no active and undead crew will create friction. The undead crew will occupy the core area of the ship near the main control room, and the Tactical Cooperation and Self-Renewal Committee will continue to carry out the actions that seem unsurprising outside of this area.
After the two sides used their own range of activities to complete the division of all areas in the ship, they showed an attitude that the well water did not interfere with the river water, and the few lone wanderers remained in the end. Except for Takakawa himself, his whereabouts have become more secretive, and even if Takakawa tries his best, he can only confirm their existence, but cannot really pull them out of the shadows.
In the following three hours, the War Self-Council and the Undead Crew Society ceased their pursuit of the sacrificial ritual and the division of their own spheres of influence, and each carried out extremely strict intra-organizational self-examination operations, and a total of six people were judged to be unstable. Two were directly executed, four were imprisoned, and the total number of casualties in the two groups reached more than fifty after completing the self-examination.
The corpses of the dead who were still left behind were mysteriously disposed of as props in the tentative sacrifice ritual and disposed of in various places on the ship.
It seems to be a very coincidence that both the War Self Guild and the Undead Crew Guild dispose of the corpses. There is a strong convergence of the sex.
Takakawa squatted in front of the corpse that had been processed and thrown away by the wall. Undress the corpse.
This is a female corpse, and the special treatment makes her body in a state of weak activity, but the physiological activity of the flesh does not mean that she is still a "living person". She wouldn't wake up unless she had a special circumstance—even if she did, before she had a full sense of personality. She still can't talk about being alive.
The female corpse's clothes were all untied, and Gao Chuan's palm stroked outward along her heart, and the information felt and judged was converted into more intuitive data by the brain hardware, which was listed on the retina screen. An outwardly complete. But the internally distorted female body model is constructed, and every minute and every second, a large number of problems are solved one by one.
"Trojan Horse......" Takagawa muttered to himself.
In the occult of Europe, there is a very classic case: in the era when the gods and demigods were still in the world, there was a war between the city-states of Europe, there was such an army, put its own people into a huge wooden horse, when the enemy introduced this wooden horse into the city, the army in ambush launched a surprise attack, and captured the city called Troy in one fell swoop. Later generations called this tactic the "Trojan Horse".
The data displayed on Takakawa's retinal screen shows that this female corpse is a Trojan horse - once the sacrifice ceremony is indiscriminate, and these corpses are forcibly regarded as sacrificial materials, then the mystery buried in the corpse will explode and directly interfere with the ritual process.
While performing similar actions, the Undead Crew may be aiming to delay the ritual, while the Tactical Cooperation and Self-Renewal Committee is likely to catalyze the ritual.
"If the enemy's means are only sacrificial rituals, both the Undead Crew Guild and the Battle Themselves will be able to deal with it themselves." A voice came from behind Gao Chuan, but Gao Chuan didn't feel the slightest sound before this, he didn't move, just listened to the voice behind him and continued: "Although the Zhanzi Society deliberately catalyzes the sacrificial ceremony, it is not on the side of the enemy, and it will still fight against the evil consequences of the sacrificial ritual. To tell the truth, they are asking for their own hardships, and asking for hardships is the purpose of this organization. However, because of the interference of the Undead Crew Association, the evil consequences of the sacrifice ceremony may not be as good as the expectations of the War Self Society, which seems to be hoping that after the fact, because of their act of reaching out, they can gain the forgiveness of the members of the War Self Association who are free from conscious interference. ”
Gao Chuan slowly stood up and turned to face the person behind him. It was a gray-black robe that was shrouded in a gray-black robe, and although it wore a hood, the brim of the hat could not stop the strange bird-like mask, the long beak protruding from the face, and the crimson eyeballs were unsettling.
"Doomsday Shinrikyo, wizard ......" Takagawa said the identity of the comer. He felt that this wizard was an elite wizard nine times out of ten, because only an elite wizard would take off his wizard robe, throw off his mask, have enough common sense, understand the language of normal society, and disguise himself as a mystical expert of non-Doomsday Shinrikyo. Only by concealing the unique style of ordinary wizards can you blend into this ship and not be found in the first place.
"Actually, what the Zhan Zihui did was quite troublesome to us. Their catalyst will speed up the ritual, but it will also make it too intense, uncontrollable, and potentially unexpected—thankfully, the Undead Crew Guild also seems to feel that being too aggressive is not a good thing. So, I'll just thank you a little. The wizard said in a tone that bordered on mockery.
"Is this kind of thing right for me? I also have a lot of influence over the Undead Crew. Gao Chuan said this, and before the words fell, he had already swept behind the wizard. The blade popped out of his cuffs, slicing the gray-black robe in two, but the light touch made him realize that he was not dealing effective damage to the enemy.
The severed black robe instantly disintegrated, twisted, and turned into a swirling gray mist. Huge suction erupted from the whirlpool, affecting even the walls, floors, and ceilings of both passages, swelling towards the whirlpool's location. In the blink of an eye, Gao Chuan made a sharp turn around the whirlpool more than a hundred times, reaching a huge speed and forcibly breaking out of the scope of this gravitational force. In his retina screen, a vague humanoid silhouette was attached to the ceiling a little farther away, like a gecko, and it was completely unobservable to the naked eye, and even Takakawa didn't know how the wizard got to that position after breaking away from the black robe.
"You're so excited, Mr. Takakawa. Why do we sit down and have a good talk? Even if Takakawa ran fast, the wizard's voice was still unhurried, reaching his ears before he arrived, as if the speed of the voice and Takakawa's speed were separated, and they had no effect on each other.
For many, this is an oddity. However, Takakawa has seen too many incredible situations, even if he is surprised, he will definitely not become sluggish because of this. He had no intention of having a good conversation with the other person, knowing full well that such a conversation, even if it could take place, would not lead to satisfactory results, and that if it became a "take a step back from each other" situation, it would not turn out to his advantage. In any case, talking to a doomsday Shinrikyo wizard is just a waste of time.
There was no need to even speak.
Takakawa's speed was even faster, and the huge gravitational pull of the gray mist vortex was converted into the power of rapid sweeping, and because of the huge range of gravitational interference, the transformation of this force has been maintained. (To be continued.) )
