Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 298 Can Bionic Transcendents Dream of Virtual Grotesque Worms?

Chen Yan remained silent.

He remembered that the missionary, Holy Light 13, who was being locked up with Vivienne in the zoo now, existed like this.

"Their souls... may come from the [Holy Light] belief of the choral group."

Chen Yan guessed.

"As for what the [Holy Light] is, I don't know, but after all, it is an extraordinary mysterious power that is worshiped as a god. Perhaps the [Soul] of monks and missionaries is endowed by [Holy Light]?"

Ohgami exclaimed, "It's... wonderful."

Chen Yan nodded approvingly.

Ohgami continued:
"The second type of enemy I encountered tonight is a modified human made of a mixture of machinery and flesh.

Although it is said to transform people, I am actually not sure whether that thing is a human transformed from a machine, or a machine transformed from a human. "

After hearing what he meant, Chen Yan shuddered severely.

Transforming a human from a machine means transforming [inanimate] things into [living]—by extraordinary means?Or maybe some kind of mysterious scientific system?Chen Yan didn't know much about it.

It is much simpler to transform a human into a machine. Most of them replace a part of the body with a machine—the current method is nothing less than the use of surgery.

Either way, life must be trampled on, even to a certain extent "blasphemy".

Or maybe worse than he imagined.

"This kind of enemy is more troublesome. They have powerful firepower, but also have a flexible body and quick thinking. I almost missed the last one."

In other words, he killed them all.

"But the weirdest thing is the last kind of enemy."

"This kind of enemy doesn't have a body, it exists like a soul, but it's not as void as a soul, um... how should I put it, I've never seen anything like that before."

Ohgami uttered a phrase: "Phantoms materialized."

A light flashed in Chen Yan's head: "The violent spirit?"

Ohgami asked, "What is that?"

Chen Yan said: "It seems to be some kind of [programmed life] of the William Adams Group. There are many types and possess extraordinary power. I don't know much about the violent spirit. I only know that those things are non-carbon-based. .”

Ogami said indifferently: "Ah, is that so? It doesn't matter. Anyway, we will meet again in the future."

Have no fear.

Chen Yan scratched his head: "I'm guessing, since something like the violent spirit operates according to the established procedures, it should not have a very perfect thinking ability, and can only think and act according to a certain fixed logic. .”

Ohgami's eyes showed memories: "Hearing what you said, I remembered that those materialized ghosts do have a very fixed way of doing things and extraordinary abilities, and the abilities they exhibit...

It is not owned by the native Transcendents of the empire I met earlier. "

Chen Yan said thoughtfully: "Perhaps the William Adams Group created [Rage Spirit] with the knowledge of the Outer Gods, so the abilities displayed also belong to the Outer Gods, not the mainland of the empire."

Ohgami mused, "Perhaps."

Chen Yan looked at the enchantment spirit on the ground: "What are you going to do with this thing?"

Ohgami said truthfully: "I haven't thought about it yet, this thing is dead, but the parts in the body are very troublesome, but if you throw it away casually, it may add trouble."

Chen Yan looked at the body of the spirit of enchantment, and a thought suddenly popped into his head: "If it is repaired, maybe it can be used as waste? Ogami, let me see what's in its head."

Ogami swung the knife lightly, and a perfect arc appeared on the forehead of the spirit of enchantment.

Immediately afterwards, the "something" in the spirit's skull appeared in the field of vision.

He squatted down, holding a kerosene lantern in his left hand for lighting, and a small wooden strip picked up from the utility room in his right hand for observation.

The thing looks like a "brain" as a whole, but it is completely different from an ordinary brain. The whole thing is made of machinery, with a complex gear transmission structure on the outside, wrapping the center with the crest of the choral group [Holy Light] printed on it. , It looks like a walnut thing.

This... is a mechanical brain.

What is the "walnut" in the middle for?

The "walnut" is obviously not made of metal, and it is dry and ugly, which looks incompatible with the precise metal beauty of the entire mechanical brain.

Chen Yan was about to use it to get the "walnut", when the voice of wish suddenly sounded in his ear.

'do not touch! '

Chen Yan immediately withdrew his hand and said curiously: "You haven't left yet!"

Ohgami didn't speak, he had already sensed the existence of the wish, and the pure and gentle aura from the wish made him let go of his vigilance.

'I think this stuff is very interesting, so I want to see it again. '

Chen Yan did hear curiosity from Wish's domineering tone.

Ogami couldn't hear the voice of the wish, and regretted: "That [spirit] seems to only want to talk to Yan Jun."

Wish continued:

'I've only seen two types of monks before. I haven't dissected them. I don't know what's in their heads...

This thing is obviously a creation of the choral group, but it does not belong to [Commandes], nor does it belong to [Song]. Is it a new model besides this?

This kind of thing just appeared recently, why? '

Chen Yan thought about it:
"I once had a conversation with [Song 13] who turned into a rabbit in the zoo—a bionic man with the appearance of a missionary. He mentioned some kind of technology, which is obviously some kind of advanced technology. Maybe it is different from these bionics. related to people.”

A few seconds later, the voice of the wish appeared again:

"When you put your hands on the four sides of the iron lump, you will feel four metal buckles. The two opposite sides form a set, and you must press them at the same time to open them.

Remember, don't touch that [walnut], or you will be gone. '

Chen Yan picked up the kerosene lantern, looked around the mechanical brain, and saw four buckles.

According to his wish, he carefully pressed the buckle and opened two sets of opposite sides respectively.

After opening the last set of buckles, a slightly dull metallic sound of "click" came from the mechanical brain.

The "Walnut" began to shake and was about to fall out.

He immediately withdrew his hand, allowing the walnut to roll out of the mechanical brain and fall to the ground without any movement.

'This thing... I can't tell what it is, I can only feel a little [divinity] from it. '

The voice of wish echoed in Chen Yan's mind.

'This shred of divinity is why you can't touch. '

'Divinity is an extension of God's sense of touch, like an invisible body. '

'Different from your imagination, the gods of this world are not the omniscient and omnipotent beings you know...but they are enough to detect your existence through the 'touched divinity'. '

'It's not a good thing to be targeted by the gods, not to mention that the gods of the choral group have complicated sources, and some of them even stand on the opposite side of [Holy Light]. your imagination. '

Listening to her words, Chen Yan immediately remembered the long river of universe composed of endless world memory fragments that she saw from her eyes.

There must be my memory in that river!
Chen Yan immediately lowered his face: "How do you know that I think gods are all-knowing and omnipotent... Look at my memory!"

Wish was noncommittal, and did not answer his words, but continued according to his own thoughts:

'So, what is this 'walnut'? '

She seemed to change the subject suddenly:

'For weak carbon-based organisms like humans, even if the pineal gland is fully evolved and [spiritual vision] reaches its limit, there are still many things that cannot be seen. '

'The extent to which the fully evolved pineal gland has reached, the extent to which a person's spiritual vision can reach. '

'This world is not as simple as what you see in your eyes. The mortal world is layered. No matter how strong your spiritual vision can be, you can see the deeper world.

Only when the spiritual vision is strong enough can one see the true appearance of the world. '

'I looked at it before, even if you achieve the full evolution of the pineal gland, which is the level of an ordinary extraordinary person, you will never be able to become a high-ranking person in this life. '

Chen Yan: "You bastard..."

Wish ignored his clamor and continued:
'The demihuman's pineal gland has been strengthened by the [Beast Transformation Virus], which is stronger than that of humans, and the [Limited Vision] of the spirit vision is farther away.

In other words, when the pineal gland of demihumans has evolved to the limit, that is, when they are fully awakened, they can generally see more 'things' than humans. '

She froze there for a moment.

When he spoke again, a new noun appeared in front of Chen Yan.

'After the appearance of [Spiritual Vision], people came into contact with a deeper world and were contaminated with the breath of the world, so [Spirituality] was born in the human body. '

'In general, whether it is human or demihuman, the root cause of their [spirituality] is the evolution of the pineal gland. '

'When [spirituality] reaches a certain level and undergoes some uncertain transformation, the so-called [superior person] is born. '

'When the [superior person] [sees] the deeper world through some means, and knows some of the essence of the world, [spirituality] becomes [divinity]—the so-called gods appear. '

'[Divinity] itself is very complicated, I can't explain it clearly, what I can only tell you is that [Divinity] can be bestowed through [faith]. '

Chen Yan said: "From this point of view, the belief in the gods of the choral group is not so different from the beliefs of other gods linked through blood.

The former is to establish a link through [faith].

The latter is to establish a link through [Blood Source]. "

Wish: 'Actually [Faith] is more complicated than [Blood Origin]...but the essence is indeed the same. '

Chen Yan pondered: "[Spirituality] is a low-level [divine nature], and the pineal gland is the carrying organ of [spirituality].

So, is this walnut actually a pineal gland? "

After hearing what he said, Ohgami's face became more curious, as if he remembered something, his eyes flickered, and he remained silent.

Then came the voice of wish: 'Yes, I think that's the pineal gland, but it's not just the pineal gland, because the pineal gland can't take on the function of [brain]. '

Chen Yan shuddered hard: "You mean, this thing is not only the pineal gland, but also the brain."
