Chapter 720: It's Interesting Now (Ask for a Monthly Pass at the End of the Month)
I have to say that Mary's painting skills are still very good, I saw her take out her notebook and paint on it as quickly as possible——— soon, Duanmu Huai saw that on Mary's notebook, a human figure appeared, and then Mary blackened these figures, and then drew a pattern similar to inhalation.........
"What does that mean?"
"That's what I saw......... The appearance of that person, there seems to be a similar ......... in his body."
At this, Mary paused.
"Similar to a black hole......... I don't know if that's the right description, but all in all, I can see that these people have something similar in their bodies, and they're absorbing everything around them.................."
"Hmm............... Well??? ”
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai first nodded, and then was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something.
"Wait........."
Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked at Pastor Tyre.
"How did you find these Lost Souls? Did you use some kind of magic? ”
"This ......... Strange to say, Lord Inquisitor, most magic and magic have no effect on them. ”
Pastor Tyre hesitated, but spoke.
"For example, if we unleash a magic spell that detects good, or detects evil, we can always get the result we want. But in these Lost Souls, magic rarely works, and according to the messengers sent by Lord Erasdra, it seems that most of the magic has limited effect on these Lost Souls. ”
"Then do you feel disgusted and annoyed when you see them around?"
"This ..............."
"Tell the truth."
"Yes, Grand Inquisitor."
Pastor Tyre hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"I know I shouldn't treat these poor people with that attitude, but......... Tyre willing, even if I'm just standing next to them, I'll feel a little uncomfortable. ”
"I see."
Duanmu Huai nodded silently, but unlike his surface blandness, Duanmu Huai's heart was turbulent at this moment. The reason is simple, he knows what these lost souls are!
Holy, this ......... Isn't it just the untouchable?!!
The so-called untouchable is a special human genetic mutant, according to the standard setting of this world, all people's souls have projections in the subspace, the projection of ordinary people is small, and the projection of psionics is large, and then up such as demigods, gods or something, that is basically the standard existence of the moon or the sun.
However, the projection of the untouchable in subspace is ——— black hole.
That's right, the projection of the untouchable in subspace is a black hole, they have no projection in subspace, they don't have souls, they belong to the kind that will not be approached by chaos gods and demons at all, and similarly, they can't use psionic energy.
But for psykers, these untouchables are terrifying.
In Faeron's words, these untouchables are basically equivalent to having their own forbidden aura, and a powerful untouchable person is enough to turn all the psionics in the entire hive capital into waste. And even the weak, untouchable, mages, priests, priests, and all other psionics who use psionic powers, can feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable as long as they are standing next to them. Not to mention psionics, ordinary people can also feel this way. That's why they are called untouchables——— ordinary people can't avoid it, who dares to touch them.
Therefore, the untouchable is basically a heavenly gram for the psyker, even if it is a Chaos Demon, you find a box to pack it up, and then tie a circle of untouchable people outside, which is equivalent to directly disconnecting the Chaos Demon.
Because of this, these untouchables are also called soulless——— well, they are the same as the soulless people here.
However, the game's untouchables are almost always born with genetic mutations, and these people are more of an artificial creation at the moment.........
Can humans make untouchables?
If you master this technique, won't you be able to create a Silent Nun?
When the time comes, with the addition of the Gray Knight, this court will basically be framed.
Duanmu Huai didn't feel any discomfort, probably because his strength was too strong, and these untouchables were too weak, if it was an alpha-level untouchable, then it was estimated that he would be aware of it, but fortunately——— Mary's golden pupils helped him find this problem in advance.
Could it be that the Supreme God is a powerful untouchable?
If that's the case......... I'm afraid it's getting more troublesome.
But how did he make other people untouchables as well?
Duanmu Huai couldn't figure it out, the untouchables in the game were all innate, there were no artificial untouchables, and the players didn't know that the untouchables could still be artificial.........
Now that's interesting.
"What else can you see? Take a closer look. ”
Duanmu Huai asked Mary again, it was obvious that these people were not inherently untouchable, because they were so fanatical about their belief in that supreme god that they looked like they had been brainwashed. But the problem is that, as I said before, the untouchable are almost all immune to magic, and no magic or magic can have an effect on the untouchable, so even brainwashing should not succeed.
According to Mysterina, this was not the case before, which means that there is probably some connection between their fanaticism for the Supreme God and their becoming untouchable.
"Uh-huh..............."
Mary circled around the untouchables, then took a closer look again.
"And then there's a ......... attached to their shadows Line? ”
"Lines? On the shadows? ”
"Yes."
As she spoke, Mary continued to draw in her notebook, and then Duanmu saw a shadow under the person she had drawn earlier, and then from the direction of the shadow's head, a black line extended from it, and spread upwards into the sky.
"Can you find out where this thread is connected?"
"Uh......... It's hard because the thread is thin and to be honest, not very easy to see........."
Mary blinked as she spoke.
"And it's going to be a little tiring."
"Is there a general direction?"
"North."
"Anything else?"
"It's gone."
Although the information obtained is not very large, thanks to Mary's golden pupils, Duanmu Huai has figured out most of the situation, and it is obvious that these soul-losing patients are ordinary people who have become untouchable for some reason. The reason why they became untouchable is unknown, judging from Mary's description, it is likely that these people were manipulated by someone through shadows, but it is clear that the untouchables should be immune to most magic according to reason, who can manipulate these untouchables?
"Hey......... It seems that I am just a toiling life, and I have come back and are about to set off again. ”
Walking out of the Temple of Tyre, Duanmu Huai sighed silently.
"Was the previous investigation dangerous?"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's emotion, Mary asked curiously, she didn't go with Duanmu Huai at that time, so she didn't know what happened to Duanmu Huai over there.
"It's not dangerous, it's just a little tiring, and sure enough, I can't say I'm too idle in the future......... It's a curse. ”
While speaking, Duanmu Huai silently calculated, and had confirmed that the enemy this time was very likely to be untouchable, and it was also a powerful untouchable, so all psionic members must be excluded, like Ann and Gurea, as well as Ogis and Rose, so this time Duanmu Huai could only bring members of the physics department.
Department of Physics......... If you want to say that Duanmu Huai's subordinates are in charge of the physics department, it is naturally Lorena, a violent priest, in addition, Mary also has to go together, after all, her golden pupil is the mission signpost, without the golden pupil, Duanmu Huai doesn't know where to go.
Next......... Well......... Well, Duanmu Huai has to admit that there seem to be very few physics soul cards in his hand, and almost most of them are psionic ones.
Mistyrina is a good swordsman, but she has to manage the territory, and Duanmu Huai can't let her go............ went.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai suddenly remembered that he had summoned a man named [Dancing Blade. Tiogne], because the other party looked like she could fight, so Duanmu Huai let her take the position of territorial general, and after that, Duanmu Huai didn't ask her how she was doing, but since Misterina didn't make a special report, it means that she should do well.
If I remember correctly, she must have been in the barracks.
"Mary, do you know how to get around the barracks?"
“……………… Mr. Duanmu, you are the lord of this territory........."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Mary was speechless.
"It's good that I know, come with me."
The military camp was located on the east side of Arkham City, near the bridge into the city, which was a matter of course, as the moat encircled the entire territory, so the bridge was the only way to access the Inquisition's territory, so it was only natural that the barracks would be built here. The buildings here also follow the Gothic style of the Inquisition, but with a strong guard and walls, forming a tall, fortress-like building.
As soon as Duanmu Huai walked into the fortress, he saw a group of soldiers practicing in the square, judging from their appearance, these soldiers should have just joined the new recruits, and in front of them, there was a girl with a golden double ponytail, wearing a pink dress, only the hand was equipped with armor, and the sword was clenched.
She was in front of the soldiers, scolding them.
"The one over there, don't give me a deterrent! We must always be proud to be knights! Look at you like this, don't you be ashamed! Tighten the skin for me! ”
I have to say that seeing a girl dressed like a big lady say such vulgar words in front of the soldiers really opened Duanmuhuai's eyes.
"Ah, my lord!"
At this time, the girl also saw Duanmu Huai, was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly ran over and saluted him.
"Hello, first meeting!"
"You are ..............."
"I'm a subordinate of Lord Tiogne, and I'm currently in charge of my position as a swordsmanship instructor here!"
"Oh..............."
Hearing the other party's answer, Duanmu Huai nodded, of course he knew that these cards had derivative cards to summon, and it was obvious that this blonde girl instructor should be the one summoned by Tiogne to be responsible for training soldiers......... Well, judging by the way she looked just now, this group of soldiers seems to be well trained.
"Is Tiogne here? I have something to look for her. ”
"Of course, please come with me."
