Day11—Episode (1)
Starting today, the company officially opened the containment area of the training department, and Marx was assigned to enter it with a group of new people, and when I met him today, he was wearing the same ego as me, the Justice Judge, and the weapon was slightly different, it was a pair of [DATA EXPUNGED] shaped pliers, and I could see some [DATA EXPUNGED] on it, although it looked unusually disgusting, but Marx still smiled when he talked about it, "It's good to get used to it." He said.
The training department has newly contained an anomaly named "Empty Dream" (designation: T-02-99), which looks like a purple sheep, with a tame face and a restful sleeping posture that always makes people feel dangerously fond of it, but in fact, as the name suggests, people will feel quite tired when they enter its containment unit, and employees with poor self-control will fall asleep in the hypnotic dust emitted by the thing, never to wake up again......
In the past cycle, I have indulged in the illusion of dreams created by empty dreams countless times, and even after the end of work, I have always tried to return to that beautiful and sweet dream again, and finally naturally, after many fruitless psychological counseling sessions, I collapsed in its containment unit and lost consciousness.
I couldn't imagine what a sweet dream it was, because the memory memory in my brain didn't store it, and that beautiful illusion couldn't be reflected in reality in any form.
Today, Minister Marcus reminded us very seriously that after the Carmen limit, the company's energy indicators will hit the more dangerous Benjamin limit, and from then on, the "test" in the company will reach the "noon" level, and the intensity of the test will no longer be a small fight in the dawn test, but a terrible monster that can seriously threaten human life.
However, I am also very aware of the weight of the noon-level test, which is actually not as complicated as the small fights of the dawn test, but it is indeed a more noteworthy dangerous situation for novices with no combat experience, and the slightest mistake can kill you.
Speaking of which, we have to mention the ego weapons in our hands, in essence, as derivatives of the anomalies under artificial guidance, these weapons have a full set of grading systems from ZAYIN to ALEPH like the anomaly, the weapons of the powerful original owner will have an effective deterrent effect on weaker enemies, and the weak ectomy will feel the "breath" of the original owner's anomaly on the powerful ego weapon and unconsciously fall into a state of panic or weakness, just like a sambar deer smelling the breath of a tiger; In this state, the enemy's will to fight will be even weaker, and they will be very convenient for us to suppress them.
Poof, the whimsical body is also afraid of something, which is really an inexplicable irony for these monsters who kill people all day without blinking.
As Marx sometimes said to me: the weak will always show their fangs to the weaker.
The classification system, as the name suggests, is a classification measure taken by the company according to the degree of danger, the desire to attack, the amount of energy produced, the destructive power to facilities and personnel, and other factors, among which the safest is "ZAYIN", followed by "TETH", "HE", "WAW", and "ALEPH", and so on, and so on, the danger level gradually increases.
So far, the company's containment area is dominated by "TETH"-level anomalies, they do not have a considerable energy production, but the degree of danger is controllable, for new employees, it is extremely happy to be able to work in an area or department nearby that contains safe anomaly, and the same is true for the old fritters, after all, those little finches will fall into an uncontrollable panic the moment they see those hideous and dangerous enemies, and the hysterical employees cannot complete any work, Even if they have a nervous breakdown and stabilize their emotions with the help of their peers, they still need a lot of rehabilitation work and psychotherapy afterwards.
As for my subordinates...... Well, I'll let them see it step by step, and if you want to live here, you must learn to be strong and calm.
Going back to the EGO weapon, as a tool in our hands, on the one hand, in addition to being divided according to the destructive power, according to its damage mechanism, it can be roughly divided into four types of damage: "white", "red", "black" and "blue".
Among them, red damage is the most understandable physical damage, ranging from abrasions and bruises to powerful heavy blows that directly shatter people, all of which belong to the most intuitive red damage. For example, Camille's largesword called "Mimic" can swing the weapon that reaches her height and can easily split a person in half, even if Camille does not have great strength.
White injuries are commonly referred to as "mental injuries", mainly because employees who are hurt by white attacks tend to experience varying degrees of psychological impact, ranging from a painless nightmare to suicide due to a mental breakdown, but this is only for humans; For bloodthirsty and cruel monsters, weapons that are judged to be white damage are still effective, but they are no longer primarily used to kill people by hitting the human spirit. Here I have to explain the mechanism of action of white damage, as its logo shows - a cloud of white smoke, in essence, all white damage EGO weapons are firing a kind of "white mist" at different distances and in different mediums, from long guns and short cannons to swords, guns and halberds, the user can control the amount of white fog used to achieve different effects: an appropriate amount of white fog can calm people's spirits, and excessive will cause irreversible damage to people's nerves, Even due to its strong corrosiveness after agglomeration, even though the EGO weapon itself may not be sharp, the white mist covering it can still be used as a sharp "blade", which can be directly used to "cut" those fleeing monsters.
White fog is generally believed to be a by-product of the production of energy from anomalous objects, and the containment unit's apparatus also has devices designed to absorb this white fog in order to prevent it from escaping into the hallways and unnecessarily affecting the mental state of the staff. As a derivative of it, the white mist consumed by the EGO attack naturally comes from the weapon itself, and I have to praise the colleagues in the R&D department here, whose technology is very good at limiting the concentration of the white mist emitted by these ego to very little. Loki's "DaCaPo" is a white damage weapon, and I've seen him wield the scythe to stabilize the spirits of many crazy employees, and for Ego, which is based on firearms or crossbow arrows, they use empty cartridges provided by R&D to infuse white mist to fire them to kill.
The source of black damage is very complex, and it can even be said that most of the non-white and non-red injuries will be classified as black injuries, and black injuries are also called "erosion injuries", which include both physical or mechanical corrosion or poisoning, as well as direct mental stimulation, which is mostly described as a spike that penetrates their brains deeply, but in fact, there are many mental disorders caused by fright after seeing their own perverted bodies due to corrosion. Marx's [Data Deletion] pliers are such weapons, which can be used to [data deletion] through the [Data Deletion] secreted by [Data Deletion], and finally achieve the effect of both mental and physical damage.
Blue damage, the most unreasonable, its killing mechanism is often almost as magical as magic, in front of it, most of the protective gear is meaningless, it will directly ignore all external means of protection, directly drain your life force, and the employees also call it "soul damage". The twin blades of the "Justice Judge" behind me are such weapons, and each slash will erase traces of the evil of the enemy, including bloodthirsty claws or murderous arms.
In actual combat, different enemies will develop different resistances to these four types of damage, either they have a hard carapace, or excellent white mist resistance or poison resistance, and even some special individuals can ignore the blue damage life force extraction...... As a result, when confronting a formidable enemy, it often takes the cooperation of many containment team members with different types of damage to safely resolve them.
"After the opening of the training department, future newcomers will work in the training department, and after obtaining the fifth-level title, they will be transferred to other departments." Marx said to me with joy: "There is always an inexplicable joy in being with new people, and I think I can teach them a lot." ”
"Teach them those things?" I asked.
"Nope." Marx shook his head: "Just let them live here, for more people to live." ”
Marx is still the same, always working here with an unquenchable enthusiasm that I don't understand what his purpose is in trying so hard to change others, and maybe I can't really understand what kind of height he is standing at talking to us.
