Chapter 31: Demon Hunting
Russell Ke still remembers that when Kamalser gave them the task, the delphinium also asked about it.
To what extent do you want to grasp the top level? Which organization's top management?
In her opinion, the company's top management chose to let them carry out this task in order to find out some information from the "high-level" brain.
In that case, if the person caught is too low-level or too marginal, and knows too little secret, won't they have to catch another one?
Adhering to the concept of excellent Party B, Delphinium specially asked Party A's requirements to prevent himself from making great efforts to complete the indicators, and then said lightly on the opposite side, "What we want is not this effect, let's redo it".
As for whether they really just grab a high-level person, it doesn't really matter.
Delphinium just wants a clear reply, so that even if they are asked to work overtime to catch another one temporarily, there is evidence to rip it off, and once again they can ask for some exchange of benefits.
As a result, Kamalse directly predicted the behavior pattern of the delphinch, and directly came to the sentence "Just catch one".
Of course, not all of the upper echelons of the Downtown organization are all mages...... But it was a gathering of mages, and all the high-level people who attended the meeting happened to be mages. That's why the company asked them to intervene at that time - this is the only time they can get to catch a mage without having to explain what a mage is to the Special Operations Department.
And since Quan Shu was arrested, it has been a month and a half.
Russell didn't see him from within the company, didn't see him in the news or executed, didn't even transfer the Master of Memory from Thotronic Energy, and didn't apply for artificial intelligence from Sogo Island. It is no surprise that the Tianen Group has not launched any new actions against the lower city...... The man simply disappeared without a trace.
Not even the other mages had ever seen it in the dream world.
Considering that only one is caught, even eating is not enough for them...... Most of them were controlled by the company as a sample of some kind of experiment.
Previously, Russell thought that this was because they were studying the difference between the new generation of mages and the old ones. Or try to study some mage-specific techniques with full familiarity or something.
But now that he saw the ruthless methods of the mages, who were able to "use" angels and demons as materials, Russell immediately realized that he was still overestimating the discipline of the company's top management.
So Russell immediately called the deer head and entered the center of the Tower of Babel.
He wanted to talk to Lu Shou in person about it.
After all, the deer head is also an elven mage who has inherited her memories, and she should know more information.
After listening to Russell's account, the deer head gave an affirmative answer.
[Your guess is correct, demons and psionic powers did appear earlier than angels]
[A long time ago, psykers and demons appeared, but at that time there was no psychic protection chip, and there was no red and blue shift detection device, and psionics were called "demon eggs"...... Basically, none of them survived, and sooner or later they will be transformed into demons.]
[The mage has mastered the means to make demons into a wedge of the mind]
[However, as early as the first mage war, because the war between mages suddenly became fierce, the demons were captured and killed]
After that, the mages established a systematic lineage. I've told you before that it's much easier to be a mage than to be a psyker.]
[It is necessary to repeatedly interrupt the mage's dreams, to train the mind to be extremely pure, and the spirit to be extremely paranoid, in a vain attempt to distort the world with only one's own will, in order to obtain spiritual energy.] But normally, before that, I would have fulfilled my mage dream and become a full-fledged mage.]
[Moreover, the acquisition and use of spells can be learned, but psionic energy has no reference.] And once you get the spell first, your mind will no longer be pure, and it will be impossible to awaken your spiritual energy.
[Of course...... It is true that there was a brief period of psionics who could use spells. But unlike you, they quickly get out of control and become demons, and are subsequently hunted]
"Sure enough......"
Russell muttered.
He had realized this when he had used the spell with all his might before.
Using spells is tantamount to "downloading emotions" from the dream world. Emotions themselves are a kind of "red shift", and in times when there is no concept of blue shift, it will be particularly easy to lead to loss of control.
Although judging from the situation on the side of the final teacher, the mages actually have some kind of means of manually increasing the blue shift. But they are quite rare.
They are more likely to choose to use demons to make a wedge of the mind to increase their tolerance.
Russell's wedge of pain is the seed that splits from the hammer of pain.
This means that as long as the mages capture a demon, the entire school will have a mental wedge to use.
The principle of the wedge of the mind is similar to that of the chip...... If the chip is equivalent to a USB flash drive, the wedge of the mind is equivalent to a network disk.
- Directly transfer and download spells to the Wedge of the Heart, and then slowly download large files to reduce the impact, or preview small files directly in the network disk.
As long as you can maintain a connection to the dream world, this is indeed a good way to prevent going crazy.
[The methods of the mages are much more radical than those of the Enforcement Department. They will even try to cultivate psionics and induce them to become demons...... Of course, this kind of "ranch" will fail in the end, because they can't make people steadily awaken spiritual energy, and they may not be able to awaken spiritual energy if they are deliberately cultivated.]
[Eventually, the mages concluded that once they knew how to awaken their psionic powers, they would eventually not be able to awaken their psionic abilities because their wills had been "polluted" by this information.]
Russell's pupils shrank slightly.
…… Isn't that what companies are doing right now?
Seven empty islands completely isolated from each other, a twisted cyberpunk world that has sealed off the chip that becomes a mage pathway, and drives people crazy......
and, the lower town full of "illegal psykers".
These are not so much seven countries as seven "mediums".
But before Russell could continue to think, the words after the deer head statue surprised him:
[As for the source of the holy rank, what the end of the country said is right...... It does have that value.]
[The "Forging of Suffering" ritual used by the end of the country on you uses the source of the holy rank as a material]
“…… What? ”
Russell was stunned for a moment, and his mood suddenly became complicated.
It turns out that he has already "used" the source of the Holy Rank without realizing it?
[To forge your will, you will need about half a bottle of the source of the holy rank. The remaining unused part is the "processing fee" paid to the end of the village.
You are valuable to the Tower of Babel, Russell. I'm afraid you can really complete the triple undercover of the company, the mage, and the Holy See]
[From the leader's point of view, I don't want you to lose control]
The ethereal and calm voice of the deer head revealed sincerity.
[Of all the methods I know of to improve Blue Shift, using the Source of the Holy Rank to perform the Dream Ritual is the only one that has no side effects]
[Ending the country can be regarded as half of our people, that is, the "conservative mage on land" I told you]
[That's why I knew the whereabouts of Strangulation in the first place, and I will let you follow Strangulation to join his school...... It's also about giving you a wedge of the heart.]
[The mages of the Tower of Babel use the wedge of the soul are all wedges of pain, and they all come from this hammer of pain]
[Only with the wedge of the mind can you enter the deeper layers of the dream world and contact those mad mages]
[Otherwise, in the dream world without physical protection, your memory and will will will be easily rewritten by them, and they don't even need to take the initiative to do so, it will impregnate the spirit of the people around them]
[For the mages, this just makes their minds not normal...... But you've also awakened your psionic powers.]
[If they go crazy, then you may lose control]
[-So, the forging ritual and the wedge of the mind are both things that must be given to you]
[This is not a reward for you, but your "office props"]
