Chapter 21. Stage Five Symptoms

Rosetta was not surprised when she saw Anzin Somezhen's silence after she asked this question.

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

"As a non-Fifth Academy wild ability user, Anxin Academy can only provide you with some basic services, and the information about the Divine Football Club is advanced content and is not included in this basic service."

After a while, An Yuan Ranzhen said.

Rosetta said: "I guess this is because they are backed by major financial groups in Yingzhou?"

He deliberately did not say "Chinese", but used the consortium to refer to it, but even so, Ansinin Ranzhen maintained a silent attitude and did not answer.

This is a very simple reasoning.

Since, as a new religious group, the God's Football Association is able to mobilize the power of the police, it shows that the power behind them is by no means simple.

When An An Yuan heard his question, he determined that he was neither a "Five Yuan" nor a "Chinese", but a wild esper.

From another perspective.

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

Want to guess which side Shenzu will belong to.

It's very simple, just a multiple choice question.

Rosetta used one of her deceptions, and as expected, An Yuan Ranzhen's silent attitude illustrates certain facts.

"Their information cannot be disclosed. This is because your 'Fifth Academy' and they are nominally part of the Yingzhou government, right? On the surface, of course, we cannot directly quarrel with each other."

He broke the silence again: "But what if I have some clues about the Football Association?"

"The experiments they conducted secretly in Yichuan City shouldn't be something you can continue to watch quietly without any worries."

"Some clues?"

Ansin Ranzhen finally spoke again.

"Yes, some clues." Rosetta said calmly: "Since Anxinyuan cannot disclose information to outsiders, then I will provide you with information for free, so you won't listen, right?"

He originally just wanted to solve the trouble that Shenzu would bring to him. It didn't matter whether the information was valuable or not. What was important was that as long as Ishiizaki's hands and feet were tied up by a third party, he would have the most critical time.

, and regained the initiative of whether to take action or not.

Regardless of whether An An Institute obtains this information and sells it to others, or joins forces with other ‘institutions’ to use this information to gain profits, the results he wants can be achieved.

"The Artificial Superpower Project, this is what they are currently experimenting with in Yichuan City."

Facing the sight of Anin Ranzhen behind the fox mask, Rosetta said unusually calmly: "I call the monsters created by the Divine Foot Society 'Corpse Dogs', and the successful products of 'Corpse Dogs' call themselves 'New Humans'"

'."

"For some reason, I have had an acquaintance with an important figure in this project of the Divine Football Association, and I have also dealt with a self-proclaimed 'New Human' among the Corpse Dogs. He is grazing a considerable number of 'Corpse Dogs' in the old city.

', and he also possesses a special ability called 'Tangliu'."

"Empty words can't explain the problem. What about concrete evidence?"

Anxinyuan dyes the true way.

"I have specific evidence, but I can't give it to you now. If you want to investigate, you can use the power of Anxin Yuan to investigate from inside the No. 3 Prison of Yichuan City and the Yanchuan City Police Station. I believe there will never be any

To disappoint you."

After a pause, Rosetta continued: "Out of concern for the safety of potential partners, I suggest that you, Miss Miko, be extremely wary of Ishiizaki. If you encounter him head-on, please try to avoid him as quickly as possible."

"Are you from Ishiizaki? I understand. Anxinyuan will verify the information provided by you as a guest."

Ansinin Ranzhen nodded slightly, and his tone seemed to become serious at the end: "If this matter is true, then the Divine Foot Club, which secretly conducts large-scale human experiments, has violated the regulations on the autonomy of ability users signed by the fourth-stage ability users in various countries.

The Third Amendment, whether it is the Chinese consortium behind them or our Fifth House, will make every effort to trace the relevant personnel involved."

"The fourth stage of ability users? Are there different stages of 'superpowers'?"

Instead of paying attention to those official-style clichés, Rosetta's attention was obviously attracted by the following words.

Anzhen Somezhen also knew his identity as a wild ability user, so it was not surprising, and said: "These common senses are part of what can be provided for free. After I leave, I will ask Mai to package these common senses and send them to your mailbox as a guest."

,"

"Before Ansin Hospital can truly verify the information provided by our guest, I would like to ask you and Ms. Arakawa to stay in the shrine for a few days.

This is not a threat, but a request. If you, the guest, the only information provider at present, are also missing, it will be detrimental to the next actions of both of us."

"As it should be." Rosetta did not refuse here. Although this could be regarded as a disguised form of house arrest, he also knew that the police system of Yichuan City, which was now controlled by the Shenzu Association, had become his enemy.

The apartment I rented was definitely not safe.

"Then, see you later."

Aninin Somezhen pushed the fox mask from his front face to the side.

Immediately, the feeling that the miko gave Rosetta changed back to the same feeling as Mai Takase from the beginning.

"I will find someone to arrange the rooms for the two guests in the shrine. Please give us some time."

The miko lady's voice was still as calm and calm as before, and she did not explain the meaning of the changes in her body.

The clear sunlight outside the hall shines in.

A long shadow was cast on the statue of a fox holding a knife behind the witch.

-

Shortly after dragging Reiko Arakawa out of the dance hall, who had no idea what was going on from beginning to end.

The email that Anshin Somema mentioned was quickly sent over. These modern ability user organizations also do not reject the power of technology.

In the document appended to the email, there is a table of levels of ability users, as well as information on exploring the origin of the 'reincarnation' phenomenon.

It is different from the previous classifications that were conventional among various countries and were filled with local mythological characteristics.

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

The level table in the first part of the document compares 'superpower' to a special disease, and subdivides the five stages of reborn ability users into five stages of symptoms.

Right now--

‘Stress period’, ‘change period’, ‘sacred period’, ‘trauma period’, and finally ‘dissociation period’.

To be more precise, "superpower user" is actually a special name for those with abilities in the first two stages.

Their bodies have passed through death, and their souls have been infected with the breath from the secluded world, deviating from the common sense of the real world. As a result, they have acquired different "avoidance mechanisms" against death.

If you want to escape from the scene of a car accident, you may awaken the power to increase your speed.

If you want to escape from a fire scene, you may awaken the ability to control fire.

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

For example, Toru Watanabe is a typical figure at this stage.

Not only is his physical fitness far superior to that of ordinary people, but his 'Tang Liu' allows him to exert destructive power that is impossible for humans.

The next stage of the ‘stress period’, the ‘mutation period’, is a qualitative change, also known as the second awakening.

When a person with abilities at this stage experiences his death again and understands the cause of his death, he will gradually transform into an inhuman being, gain the ability to ignore conventional damage, and the range and accuracy of his abilities will be further improved.

In the ancient times of Dashun, those with abilities who had reached the second stage were called "strangers". When placed on the battlefield, they had the ability to determine small-scale battles on the battlefield.

——As for those with abilities who are in the third stage of the ‘Sacred Stage’.

That is no longer a level that human beings can compete with. They are called "psychics" rather than "superpowers" because "psychics" are born from the soul, and the self and spirit have also experienced a death.

.

‘Sinthome’

A coined term in Jacques Lacan's theory, that is, a divine symptom, a sublime thing in the spirit.

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

It is mentioned in this document given by Ansin Ranzhen.

There is an essential difference between ‘superpowers’ and ‘psionic powers’. The iconic point is that ‘psionic powers’ can create ‘things that do not exist’.

An example is mentioned in the documentation.

That is the famous alchemist "Issac Newton" in the 17th century in the Old World. He named the spiritual power of 'Natural Principle' and the creation 'philosopher' who reappeared from the Jade Record and claimed to be the creation of the Messiah.

stone'.

The specific effects of this psychic power are unknown, but some speculate that it is related to calculation, simulation, analysis, and creation.

As the last philosopher's stone to appear in history.

The effect of Sir Isaac's last creation is very simple, it is used as a 'decomposer of all things'.

Just a little bit of powder scraped off it can turn the hardest alloy that can be artificially made in the world into sand and dust. This is an almost conceptual effect, so that the 'Isaac Philosopher's Stone' can only be placed in a special place.

It must be preserved in a gravity-free vacuum environment, otherwise it will fall all the way into the center of the earth.

This.

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

No matter what kind of superpower it is, in terms of its nature, it is like human beings who are bound by gravity and are restricted by the laws of physics.

But this is not the case with psychic powers. Many of the psychic powers that have been released because the holder has passed away have incredible effects, and can even affect strategy.

It wasn't until she read the end of the information and stroked the pale fangs hanging on the necklace on her chest that Rosetta realized that her ability was actually something so outrageous.

"Natural psychics... ha, this is a subject with much more research value than artificial psychics."
