Chapter 21. Stage 5 syndrome

Seeing Anxinin's silence after she asked this, Rosetta was not surprised.

Because sometimes behind the silence, more information can often be expressed.

"As a non-five-court wild ability, the Anxin Academy can only provide guests with some basic services, and the information of the Shenzu Club belongs to the advanced content, and it is not included in this basic service."

After a while, Anxin Yuan said with a smile.

Rosetta said: "I guess, this is because they are behind the major consortia in Yingzhou?" ”

He deliberately did not say 'Chinese', but used the consortium as a substitute, but even so, Anxinin Dye Zhen maintained a silent attitude and did not answer.

This is a very simple reasoning.

Since the Divine Foot Society, as a new religious group, has been able to mobilize the power of the police on a large scale, it shows that the power that supports them behind them is by no means simple.

When the Anxin Yuan heard his question, they determined that he was neither a 'Five Courtyards' nor a 'Chinese', but a wild capable person.

On the other hand.

This shows that these two forces, at least nominally, have obtained the management authority over most of the abilities in Yingzhou, and those who have not made a choice between the two parties and have the establishment are the so-called 'wild abilities'.

To guess which side the Divine Foot will belong to.

It's simple, it's just a multiple-choice question.

Rosetta used one of his tricks, and sure enough, Anxinyuan's attitude of being really silent illustrates certain facts.

"Their information can't be revealed, this is because you're the 'Five Courts' and they are nominally part of the official Yingzhou, right? Of course, you can't tear the skin directly on the surface. ”

He broke the silence again: "But what if I have some of the handles of the Divine Foot Society? ”

"The experiments they are secretly conducting in Antgawa City should not be something that you can continue to watch quietly."

"Some handles?"

Anxinin Dye Zhen finally spoke again.

"yes, some handles." Rosetta said calmly: "Since the Anxin Institute can't disclose the news to outsiders, then I will provide you with information for free, should you not listen?" ”

Originally, he just wanted to solve the trouble that Shenzu would bring him, and it didn't matter whether the news was valuable or not, the important thing was that as long as Ishiizaki's hands and feet were tied up by a third party, then he would have the most critical time, and the initiative to make a move or not to get back into his hands.

Regardless of whether the Anxin Yuan gets this information and sells it to others, or unites with other 'courts' to use this handle to seize benefits, the result he wants can be achieved.

"Project Artificial Adeptus, this is what they're experimenting with in Antgawa City right now."

Facing the fox mask's gaze, Rosetta said unusually calmly, "I call the monsters created by the Divine Foot Society 'Corpse Dogs', and the successful products in 'Corpse Dogs' call themselves 'New Humans'. ”

"For some reason, I've had a relationship with an important person in the Divine Foot Association's project, and I've also had a deal with the self-proclaimed 'new human' among the corpse dogs, who herds a considerable number of 'corpse dogs' in the old town, and also has an ability called 'Lingering' himself."

"Empty words don't tell the story, but what about the evidence?"

Peace of mind temple dyeing truth.

"I have specific evidence, but I can't hand it over to you yet, if you want to investigate, you can use the power of the Anxin Institute to start from the inside of the No. 3 Prison of Antchuan City and the Antchuan City Police Station, I believe that you will never be disappointed there."

After a pause, Rosetta added, "Out of concern for the safety of your possible partners, I suggest that you be extremely vigilant against Ishiizaki, and if you encounter him head-on, please try to avoid it as quickly as possible." ”

"Ishiizaki people, I see, the Anxin Institute will verify the information you provided."

Anxin Yuan Zhen bowed slightly, and finally his tone seemed to be serious: "If this matter is true, then the Shenzu Association, which conducted large-scale human experiments without permission, has violated the Third Amendment to the Autonomy Regulations for Capable Persons jointly signed by the fourth-stage capable people of various countries. ”

"Fourth-stage powerhouse? Is there a stage for 'ability'? ”

Instead of paying attention to the official clichΓ©s, Rosetta's attention was clearly drawn to the latter words.

Anxin Yuan Dye Zhen also knew the identity of his wild ability, so he was not surprised, so he said: "This common sense belongs to the part that can be provided for free, and after I leave, I will ask the dance clothes to pack this common sense and send it to the guest in your mailbox."

"And before the Anxin Temple really verifies the information you provided, I would like to ask you and Miss Arakawa to stay at the shrine for a few days

This is not a threat, but a request, and if you, the only intelligence provider at the moment, are gone, it will be a disadvantage for both of us in the future. ”

"As it should be." Rosetta did not refuse here, although this can be regarded as a disguised house arrest, but he also knows that the police system of Antgawa City, which is now controlled by the Shenzu Association, has become his enemy, and the apartment he rents is definitely not safe.

"See you later, then."

Anxinin Dye really pushed the fox mask on the front face to the side of the face.

Immediately, the feeling that Miss Miko gave to Rosetta changed back to the original Takase dance dress.

"I'll find someone to arrange the rooms for the two guests in the shrine, please give us a little time."

Miss Miko's voice was still as calm as before, and she didn't explain the meaning of the change in herself.

Sunlight shines in from outside the main hall.

A long shadow shines on the statue of the fox holding the sword behind the shrine maiden.

-

Shortly after dragging Reiko Arakawa, who didn't know what was going on from beginning to end, left the dance hall.

The email that Anxin Dye Zhen said was quickly sent, and these modern capable organizations also do not reject the power of science and technology.

In the appendix of the email, there is a list of the ranks of the able, as well as information on the origin of the phenomenon of 'rebirth'.

It is different from the conventional classification between countries in the past, which is full of local mythological characteristics.

The long Cold War, which has never ended, has promoted the formalization and systematization of the classification of capable people.

The first part of the document describes the 'ability' as a special condition, subdividing the five stages of a person who has undergone rebirth into five stages of symptoms.

i.e. –

'Stressful Period', 'Mutation Period', 'Holy Period', 'Traumatic Period', and finally 'Dissociative Period'.

To be more precise, 'Adeptric' is actually a term for the first two stages of Ability.

Their bodies have died, and their souls have been infected with the breath from the netherworld, deviating from the common sense of the real world, so they have acquired different 'avoidance mechanisms' for death.

If you want to escape from the scene of a car accident, you may awaken an ability that increases speed.

If you want to escape from the fire, you may awaken the ability to manipulate fire.

But the reason why the abilities of the Abnormal are called 'diseases' is because these death-avoidance mechanisms have their own costs behind them.

For example, in the case of Toru Watanabe, he is a typical person at this stage.

Not only is his physical fitness far beyond that of ordinary people, but his 'entanglement' can make him exert a destructive power that is impossible for human beings to play.

The next stage of the 'stress period', the 'aberration period', is a qualitative change, also known as the second awakening.

When the ability at this stage experiences the death of the year again and clarifies the cause of its own death, it will gradually transform into inhuman, gaining the trait of ignoring conventional damage, and the scope and accuracy of the ability will be further improved.

In the ancient times of Dashun, those who reached the second stage of ability were called 'aliens', and when they were placed on the battlefield, they had the ability to decide a skirmish on the battlefield.

- As for those who are in the third stage of the Holy Stage.

It is no longer a level that humans can compete with, they are called 'psionics' rather than 'psychics', because 'psionics' are born from the soul, and the self and spirit have also undergone a death.

'Sinthome'

A coined term in the doctrine of Jacques Lacan, that is, the divine symptom, the sublime in the spirit.

It is said that those who have entered this stage of ability can even glimpse their doomed 'destined death' from occasional hallucinations.

It is said in this document given by Anxin Hospital.

There is an essential difference between 'psychics' and 'psionic powers', and one of the hallmarks is that 'psionic powers' are capable of creating 'things that do not exist'.

There is an example mentioned in the documentation.

That is the famous alchemist "Isaac Newton" of the 17th century in the Old World, who named it the spiritual power of the "Principles of Nature", and the "philosopher's stone", the creation of which he reproduced from the jade book and claimed to be the creation of the Messiah.

The exact effect of this psychic ability is unknown, but it has been speculated to be related to calculation, simulation, analysis, and creation.

As the last philosopher's stone in history.

The final creation effect of this Sir Isaac is simple, and that is to use it as a 'decomposer'.

Just a little bit of powder scraped off it can turn the hardest alloy in the world into dust, and this almost conceptual effect makes the 'Isaac Philosopher's Stone' even have to be stored in a specially set gravity-free vacuum environment, otherwise it will fall all the way to the center of the earth.

And this.

It is the 'non-existent thing' that can never exist in the real world, and can only be created by psionic energy.

No matter what kind of ability it is, it is like a human being on the ground bound by gravity, limited by the laws of physics.

However, this is not the case with psionic powers, many of which are announced due to the death of the holder, and their effects are incredible, even enough to affect strategy.

It wasn't until he saw the end of the document, stroking the pale fangs hanging from the necklace on his chest, that Rosetta knew that his ability could be such an outrageous thing in nature.

"Born with psychic powers...... Ha, this is a topic that has a lot more research value than artificial ability. ”
