Chapter 763: The Cause of Things
Chapter 763: Cause of Thought
The unsturdy space of the other dimension collapsed due to the loss of control of energy, the dim corridor and the cold wind of the YΔ«n Sen classroom were reduced to pieces like broken glass, and the scene around everyone changed back to the rooftop of the building, and when the normal night scene appeared, those abnormal things also quickly formed in the air.
The shattered corridors and classrooms did not dissipate with the wind after they were reduced to pieces, but twisted and mixed together, quickly forming something new: a utility knife several meters high, a huge compass, a burning giant book, a black ghost, and a huge human head rolling on the ground and constantly bleeding, all of which were made of the fragments of the corridor, as if the surface was wrapped in a layer of colorful broken newspaper puzzles, and a compass nearly four meters long crossed me. Scratches were left on the concrete floor on the roof of the building, indicating that although these things were imaginary, they had enough power to destroy reality.
Especially the giant head that cries and howls, looks horrible and disgusting, I don't know what kind of horror story this is the image of, but its appearance of rolling and bleeding pus all the way not only destroys the real space, but also destroys the mood of each of us - even the skeleton mage can't stand its disgust, and waving his staff to roast meat.
Disgusting, weird, and extremely destructive, but that's all, compared to a group of realistic special forces, these huge foreign objects are just live targets, twenty elite skeleton mages belonging to the Salvation Army began to release dense bone spears and shadow arrow rain, tearing these strange things into debris, the long sword in the hand of the death knight flew over, cutting ghosts and monsters was like chopping melons and vegetables, Reimu and the others had been useless before, and at this time they finally found a channel to vent and began to overwhelm the barrage, I still had to hold the big horn on the head of the watermelon next to Ibuki, and I didn't dare to let go no matter how much the other party protested: I was really afraid that this powerful guy would tear down the building.
It seemed to be huge, but in fact it was an easy battle for a few to crush the majority, and just half a minute passed, as the huge human head with unexpectedly tenacious vitality turned into a jelly covering an area of twenty square meters under a shallow cold snort, all the illusions finally disappeared.
The wreckage all over the ground turned into black sè smoke drifted away with the wind, and it was never reborn.
"That's it." Lin Xue patted the shallow shoulder, signaling the latter to release his ability, and immediately, the only remaining classroom wreckage in the ghost domain also turned into scattered fragments, but these fragments did not become foreign objects like the previous corridor fragments, as if they were lacking in energy, but after a few flashes, they disappeared.
More than a dozen male and female students in school uniforms lay unconscious, and not far from them were long-extinguished flashlights and some scattered snack packets.
I didn't expect us to be so close to them, it seems that the ghost domain just now interfered with everyone's perception - of course, the lack of release of spiritual power is also one of the reasons.
"The third watch climbed to the top of the dead teaching building in the middle of the night to tell ghost stories, it's really a big forest and there are all kinds of birds," Lin Xue muttered and stepped forward, trying to breathe under a student's nose, "It's still alive at all." β
As early as when we destroyed the ghost domain, the response personnel of the ability group were already on standby below, and after Lin Xue gave the signal that the operation was over, someone immediately came up to send these students to rescue, and at this time I finally had the opportunity to ask Lin Xue what the situation was. She knows more things than I do, but this girl just likes to hang people's appetites.
"Because the previous one was just speculation, I never told others if I wasn't sure of the information, because I was afraid of interfering with other people's judgment," on the way back, Lin Xue explained to me with a happy expression on her face, "Those are the students who participated in the holiday class who disappeared many days ago, and they are all dormitory students, and the monitoring in the school shows that they all walked in the direction of the teaching building of the junior high school at that time, and then they did not come back, and the school has suffered a lot of toss for this." On the third day after the disappearance, the hapless teacher appeared in the ghost domain, so I connected the two events. I've been around the school a few times, going back to the middle school building and finding out that the students disappeared after deciding to go to the rooftop roof for a ghost story convention at night. Two teachers and a student died of a heart attack in the same classroom in this building, so many rumors have that evil spirits lurk here, and maybe that's why those bear kids are doing all this mess. You also know that the holiday class is sometimes stricter than normal, they can't sneak out of school, and there is nothing else to do, except for hiding in the dormitory and surfing the Internet, there are all kinds of nonsense left. β
I looked at it and smiled, and both of them remembered the experience of coming back in the middle of the night to turn on the lights and create haunted rumors in this school.
"So you're sure those students are hiding on the 'seventh floor' of the haunted middle school?"
"It's not for sure, it's just a guess," Lin Xue shook her finger at me, "As soon as we came, our people had searched the entire school, and there were indeed no students. Second, if the haunting event is linked to the disappearance of the students, the haunted scene is of course the most likely to be hidden. In fact, after summing up so many supernatural events, I have already seen a little pattern, and now I have seen the scene of the supernatural events in this place...... Well, especially those classrooms and compass books and stuff, it's even more convincing...... The so-called supernatural event is probably caused by the heart. β
Shallow and I expressed our hope that Lin Xue could talk to us in Chinese.
The eldest lady glanced at the two guys who didn't want to use their brains at all, but she was in a good mood and still patiently explained: "To put it simply, it's a nightmare come true." Remembering what I said before, all hauntings are born in places where people gather, and no man's land has never produced similar natural phenomena, which means that their life is related to people. Then all the supernatural items associated with haunted events also have a rule, that is, although they can survive independently after they are generated, at the moment of generation, there must be someone next to them, such as the palm-sized Sadako and the pair of porcelain dolls, they are all generated when someone is around, and then even if they leave that person, they can also exist independently. And this large-scale ghost domain also confirms this law: it is not so much that the dozen or so students are trapped in the ghost domain, but that the ghost domain is generated around the missing students, and its form is also very concerning: large classrooms, such as mountain textbooks, compasses, blood-red formulas, and the popular horror corridors and ghost images of the 'campus incredible' atmosphere among students, these are the things that students have the most contact with on weekdays and bring them the most direct psychological pressure. β
"In other words, has the fear of my heart become a reality?"
Yuyuko, who had been sitting quietly in the back row of the seven hundred billion and listening to our conversation, suddenly spoke.
Although the plan to lead Youyuzi out to catch ghosts was useless, the other party was still familiar with this aspect of things, and she broke the mystery in one sentence.
"It should be like this, to put it more simply, it is born from the heart," Lin Xue nodded, "The things that people fear in the spiritual world world appear in the real world world, although it sounds incredible, but ......"
"I should have brought the red here," I looked up at the sky, "to make that guy fully realize the horror of Chinese copycats: how his whole life has been copied by a bunch of uncles, aunts and little hairy children." β
Should it be said that the cottage saved the world, such a murderous mass-produced fantasy materialized - I guess the Heroic Guard Shiroujun saw the murderous pseudo? Intrinsic enchantments? In the second half of the third semester of junior high school, he will definitely be deeply touched by the howling ghost domain, and maybe one day he will be able to see him crying like Hercules, who was saddened by a popsicle in the face of a popsicle a few days ago.
"This one is different...... Forget it, whatever you want," Lin Xue glanced at me, "Anyway, it is true that things in the human spirit world are gradually becoming reality, and this incident also proves my conjecture: the number of participants determines the scale of spiritual manifestation, and it is geometrically strengthened." A single person can only create a few supernatural items, at most a haunted room, while a group of people can create an entire floor of haunted realms that contain countless horror scenes. Of course, the price is also tΗng, and they almost died in it......"
I already understood what Lin Xue meant, but there was still one thing that I didn't understand very well: "What you said is that the 'fear' in the human subconscious has become a reality, so how can the uncle who resells porcelain dolls explain?" He's not afraid of ghosts at all, that kind of murderous fellow. β
"But his wife is afraid," the eldest lady knocked on my head, "If my assumption is true, those two porcelain dolls are actually 'utopian' from the wife of the strange uncle, and the uncle is just a handler...... Ah, it's time to get off. β
I parked 700 billion on the side of the road, and said to Lin Xue with a smile: "You didn't go home until two or three o'clock in the evening for this mission, didn't your parents ever suspect it?" β
The eldest lady was silent, and suddenly smiled: "Since I was a child, I have never remembered a time when I could be with my parents after dinner. Living in that kind of behemoth-like home, there are many ways to 'disappear' yourself, not to mention that there is a grandfather to help cover up. Well, then again, my dad has been really hot lately-wood, when I don't want me at home, but I've been eating for a long time with you. β
I wanted to say something, but I still smiled faintly like the other party: "It's like you don't come to eat all day now." Go back and have a good rest, and tomorrow see if those students wake up, maybe everything will fall into place. β
As a result of tonight's actions, we didn't get home until after 3 a.m., and it was already quiet in our home. After sending the yawning shallow back to my room, and making a lot of promises to shove Reimu's helper back into Shadow City, I made my way to the large cabinet in the living room.
Avena doesn't usually have to sleep, but she does take a break in the dead of night, right on top of the cabinet in the living room. I don't know how to describe this, but in fact the girl built a crow's nest on top of the cupboard, and she is now a crow-ghost-spirit trinity.
With a slight knock on the cabinet, the big black crow fluttered down, and turned into her own pretty little maid in the light of the holy light, and Anvina hurriedly lifted her skirt and saluted: "Ah, master, you are back." Anvina didn't meet her at the first time this time, which was really a failure. β
"Don't care, be quiet, don't wake anyone up." I let the ghost sit down next to me, and since it's already this time, Suo XΓ¬ng won't sleep today, "Anvina, there's something I want to ask you, about ghosts and the like. You still remember how you got to be like this, right? β
Avena didn't know what I wanted to say, but nodded anyway. The experience of becoming a ghost was definitely the most memorable of her life, both during and after her death, and although it was not a pleasant memory, now that it was all over, she could recall those times calmly.
"Ghost, it should be the process of spiritual power turning into a substance, right?" I looked at Anvina's body, although she was a ghost, she could make herself appear in a physical state, in that state, except for her low body temperature, she was exactly the same as a normal girl, well, soft, cough cough......
"Well, it's kind of similar. The psychic masters of Azeroth explain the ghost phenomenon as a process in which the spirit hΓΊn fails to dissipate due to various reasons after the death of the creature, and gradually reaches a new balance with the natural energy of the outside world, and finally stabilizes, but in the final analysis, it is also the process of gradually becoming a 'real' existence that can resonate with the outside world after the spiritual power is detached. I didn't know this before, but this was what Lord Sylvanas told Anvina when she came. β
"So does it take a lot of power to become a ghost?" I organized my language to try to make my question as clear as possible, "Or something, does it take a lot of strength to move from the spiritual world to the real world?" β
"It doesn't take much power to become a ghost. Did the owner forget? Anvina was just an ordinary girl when she was alive, living in that kind of small country place, and she didn't even meet a real magician a few times. Turning into a ghost requires a number of conditions, not a lot of force. As for making things in the spiritual world appear in the real world, if it is okay to 'appear', it is very easy if the conditions are met, and a small trick like an arcane illusion can be regarded as making things in the spiritual world appear in the real world. It's just that this kind of thing is still fake in the final analysis, either it can't last long, or it's easy to destroy, or it can be seen at a glance that it's different from the real thing. β
Listening to Anwena talk about this knowledge, I gradually became surprised: "So you are still so knowledgeable? This knowledge shouldn't be the necessary knowledge in the maid code, right? β
I don't believe that the nobles of Azeroth have been so cruel that every maid in the family has reached the level of Dalaran's graduation!
The ghost maid only bowed her head slightly when she heard this, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "The master often goes out to fight, so I found some books from the world of Azeroth to read. And it's always a little lonely when the owner is away, and I have to find something to do. β
The little maid said, with a shy look on her face, as if admitting that it was a shame to be afraid of loneliness, and I reached out and rubbed the other party's soft linen sè long, thinking in my heart.
Let the things in the spiritual world appear in the real world, and the key word here is the word "appearance". It is not necessary to rely on the erosion of the real world to make the fantasy things into real things, but just to let them appear in the real world world, the amount of power required is not strong, and it can even be said that there is no need for any force at all, any ordinary person can do it.
According to the data we have collected, the strength of ordinary humans in the Azeroth World Realm is about the same as that of earthlings in terms of spiritual strength, and it is not outstanding because the physical fitness of people in that world is generally broken, so the "easy" in Avena's mouth is also applicable to earthlings.
Now the city and several surrounding cities have broken out of various supernatural events, I have personally experienced three, and Lin Xue has been in contact with more, the latter's current conjecture is that things in the human spiritual world are gradually invading reality, I originally thought that the biggest doubt is whether the spiritual power of human beings is so strong, but now it seems that the spiritual power of human beings is completely enough to produce this phenomenon, what should really be explored is for what conditions on the earth are sufficient to meet this phenomenon.
The ghosts of the world of Azeroth are a common phenomenon, because there is a magic web in that world, and the world has a very high degree of identification with natural phenomena, this second point is very important, in a world where everyone believes in ghosts, ghosts are more likely to appear. But on Earth, on the contrary, there is no orderly system of natural forces on this planet, and there is no atmosphere for supernatural things to produce, so what is it that causes supernatural events to occur in this situation?
Anvina sat quietly beside her, and sensibly adjusted her body to a state of low-brightness natural light, so that I could think about things with peace of mind, although I wanted to complain about the girl's action of measuring back and forth with a lumen meter while adjusting her brightness, I still couldn't help but say nothing.
After some thought, I still couldn't figure it out, and I was still very confused about how a group of humans living in an atheistic environment could unconsciously develop mental visions, but I seemed to have figured out something else.
Why did all the supernatural events happen to avoid the sight of the agents we sent out and Lin Xue?
At first, we thought about this matter too seriously, and we always thought that the unidentified "enemy" had the power of the intelligence department of the Far Empire, and 'he' could even perceive a prophet's prophecy about him in reverse, but the real situation is probably so simple that it is ridiculous: because the source of those supernatural events is too weak!
If the source of all supernatural events is the subconscious of ordinary people (for the time being, this subconscious from ordinary people is called the source of life), then these supernatural events are very easy to be interrupted when they are born, and any amount of spiritual power that comes out of their source can overwrite this psychic process, just as a stronger interference signal will overwrite the normal signal. And any of the agents we sent out are more powerful than ordinary earthlings, and they will use a lot of detection equipment when performing tasks, what a scale of energy interference will be - countless supernatural events that could have been born are actually suffocated in the mother's womb!
Not to mention the gaze of a certain prophet lady, even if she spread her strength to observe the entire city, her mental strength was enough to strangle every haunted event. Tonight's ghost domain is also an example: more than a dozen ghost domains created by humans at the cost of deep stupor, and they were wiped out in an instant after my spiritual power was slightly released, this is still the materialization of the spiritual power that has been formed, if it is the moment when the ghost domain is being born, I am afraid that Lin Xue's vision is enough to destroy it.
As for the supernatural events that have been "born", that is, psychic items such as porcelain dolls, they may have appeared in the real world, and they no longer need the support of human spiritual power, but they can not be affected by this.
It's a bit of a gain to straighten out these things, look at the clock on the wall, it's already more than four o'clock, and Anvina is about to start working again at this time, but she still cares about me first: "Master, is it really okay not to take a break?" β
"It's okay, you don't know my physique, and if you don't sleep, there's nothing wrong with it."
"That's not what it means," said the little maid, who leaned over with concern, "go up and see the little master of the mercury lamp, she is probably still waiting!" β
Me: "...... You should have been reminded of this earlier!! βRoaγ
