Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 442 Courage and Unknown Knowledge
Before Chen Yan felt apprehensive, Wish made a hesitant voice:
"Hmm... I remember that for a psychic psychic, synesthesia with dead objects is not the same as synesthesia with living things..."

Chen Yan's heart skipped a beat, remembering the synesthesia with Paulkin Walker this afternoon.

That strong emotion still stays in his heart until now, and it hasn't dissipated completely for a long time.

Except for Kerrize Hunter who died in the wilderness, Chen Yan had not learned anything about psychics from others before. Now that Wish obviously knew the relevant information, he couldn't wait to ask :
"I have long wanted to know, what is the scope of telepathy?

I had a thought in my heart, and I saw what happened within the time frame I wanted to see, but I faintly felt that I couldn't grasp it...

I can't control the scope of synaesthesia very well. "

Chen Yan's tone was serious:

"I was very wary of it. It felt like I was walking on a very narrow wooden bridge. Although I could barely keep my balance, I felt like I would fall at any time."

"Every time I have synaesthesia with objects, I feel... powerless."

There is thought in the voice of wish:

"Why is this happening? Because such an ability is too easy to lose control due to exposure to [unknown knowledge]..."

She put it another way:

"There is so much beyond human comprehension that exposure to it leads to an uncontrolled accumulation."

"The accumulation of out-of-control is generally not noticed, and sometimes it may be just a small change in the heart."

"The individual psychics I have observed will more or less lose control, because you... It is too easy to accumulate and lose control."

Wish pauses briefly here.

"So, it's actually quite normal for you to feel like this."

"When you can't grasp it completely, bang, the synaesthesia fails, and the accumulated loss of control will explode."

Chen Yan said in a deep voice:
"How do you measure the degree of loss of control?"

Wish answer:

"The degree of loss of control...it's hard to say, it depends on your synesthete partner.

If it is a living object, the amount of memory perceived by its synaesthesia is too large, or contains [unknown knowledge], then the degree of you losing control will be very large.

When the out-of-control is so big that your brain can't hold it, boom, you will rot and become a perverted and deformed lunatic monster! "

The tone of the wish is serious:

"It's the worst-case scenario."

Chen Yan asked:
"What's normal?"

Wish replied:
"The normal situation is to have synaesthesia within your ability - that is usually to an inanimate object - to have a synesthesia with an inanimate individual in order to obtain the information you need, which is the safest way to improve way of ability."

Chen Yan's face was ugly:

"I have already used synesthesia on people... Does this mean that out of control has accumulated some in my body..."

Wish affirmed without hesitation:

"Yes, and the accumulation is not small."

Chen Yan's eyes flickered, and his face became even uglier:

"Grass……"

Wish comforted him in his own way:
"Actually, it's nothing. Take a closer look. Matter exists forever. It won't increase or decrease with your death. When you die, I will burn you and sprinkle the ashes on the street." , can't you still smell the smell of other people's cooking every day! I will come to see you often then!"

Chen Yan said angrily:

"You fucking..."

He took a deep breath, preventing himself from continuing.

Can't understand like a child...

He took a few more deep breaths, and with luck, he asked:
"Is it true that out of control will only accumulate and not diminish?"

The wish clearly affirms:
"Yes."

She turned and said:
"Out of control will only accumulate and cannot be reduced, but you can increase the total amount of out of control you can accommodate!"

"Moreover, loss of control itself is also a kind of power - the more you lose control in the mortal world, the stronger your sensitivity to the extraordinary world, and the stronger your affinity for psionic power.

Otherwise, how could the monsters become extremely strong after being out of control and corrupted? "

Chen Yan said in a deep voice:
"What am I going to do? To increase my...runaway capacity?"

wish said:

"Evolution, promotion, awakening... There are many sayings, but they all have the same meaning."

Chen Yan asked hopefully:
"Do you know what the next phase of the telepath is?"

The wish is straightforward:

"I don't know, I don't know what to do when I'm free."

Chen Yan was disappointed.

Seemingly seeing his disappointment, Wish said in an uncertain tone:
"Actually, maybe when your current ability reaches its limit, you will know what the next stage of evolution will be."

"But, like I said before, you have to have the courage...you have to have the courage to face the unknown in order to keep going."

Chen Yan pondered and said:
"For an extraordinary person, there is only one thing that can prove courage, and that is to face the unknown."

"And facing the unknown will inevitably accumulate out of control."

"If you choose to survive, maybe the loss of control will come later...but you will definitely not be absent."

Wish affirmed:
"Yeah, we've talked about something like this before."

Chen Yan sighed:

"I just want to reconfirm."

Wish emphasized:
"You must muster up your courage! There is nothing you dare not face!"

Chen Yan said in surprise:
"That's really not like something you can say."

Wish snorted, and ignored him because he was a little flustered.

Chen Yan scratched his head, took a few deep breaths, and calmed down:

"I have to witness more unknowns... In fact, this is not a troublesome thing."

He calmly said to himself:
“[Witnessing the Unknown] can bring me many benefits:

First, witnessing the unknown can exercise my courage and enhance my supernatural ability, so that I will not become a corrupt monster due to uncontrolled accumulation. "

Second, I can exchange the unknown information through the Northern Federal Bureau of Anomalous Biology Investigation into money to survive in this city—this is a very important thing.

Third, I have come into contact with these unknown knowledge now... Whether it is the surface or the underground, or even the wilderness where the deeper world is located, the existence of all things and the operation of society are closely related to my life. "

His eyes gradually brightened:

"The world is changing... in ways I didn't expect.

As an ordinary person, I could only force myself to adapt to this world and struggle according to the rules of this world. "

"But now, after understanding some of the operating rules of this world, I can start to try to use these rules to gain benefits for myself——

I gradually began to change the world with my own subjective will and according to objective rules.

I haven't done it yet, but I think I have this ability, and I want to try more.

Isn't it the strongest power of mankind to change the world through one's own subjective will? "

Regarding the matter of "changing the objective world through subjective initiative", Chen Yan had only stayed at the theoretical stage before - "Only social practice is the standard of truth for people's understanding of the outside world".

Now after practicing it personally, Chen Yan has gained a completely different feeling from when he first learned the indirect experience on paper.

At this moment, Chen Yan felt that he had become different from before.

He couldn't tell exactly what was different, but he felt extremely peaceful in his heart, as if he had the courage to do anything.

He took out his mobile phone in a flustered manner, opened the [Inspiration Strength] testing app, and saw that the thermometer had risen to about 50%.

The inspiration intensity last time was around 30%.

In other words, after this afternoon's incident and this evening's perception, his inspiration intensity has increased by 20%
From yesterday afternoon to night, I was first threatened by Ryan Gamma of the Powder Keg Gang, then went into the wilderness to experience such a horrible incident, and later entered the underground space through the wilderness, narrowly escaped death, and after experiencing so many things, the intensity of inspiration increased by 30%.

And his experience today is not as dangerous as yesterday, it can even be said that there is no danger, but it still increases the intensity of inspiration by 20%.

This is enough to show that inner perception is actually as important as [Looking straight into the unknown] exercising oneself...even more so!
Chen Yan put the phone back in his pocket, touched his chin a little excitedly, and gradually calmed down.

"I want you to help me look underground... look at the mining area of ​​Spyro Industries, what's going on now."

Almost at once Wish said:

"I knew you were going to ask this, I have tried, but the vision cannot reach."

Chen Yan asked:

"What limits your vision?"

Wish nods:

"It's a rift—a space rift that exists in the underground world. That thing is chaotic, and my vision cannot pass through it."

She murmured in her heart: Because I am no longer the spirit of the universe.

She went on to say: "Some mysterious powers can easily block my sight. There are many places like this in the world. There are a few in the Central Forest Park of Yanan City. Haven't you seen them before? I don't know what's hidden inside." The hell."

Chen Yan was not discouraged by this:
"I reckon I'll be heading to the mines of Spyro Industries soon, and I'd like to get some of the Snake's Kiss as soon as possible... if not in large quantities, at least some, because I have a hunch, when the lighthouse on Walker Street is activated After that, electricity is going to be quite expensive in the beginning.”

Wish said in an indifferent tone:

"Then you have to be careful."

Chen Yan smiled, and was about to respond when the doorbell suddenly rang downstairs.

It's almost 11pm now, who's knocking on the door?
Both Ogami and Marina had keys, it was never just the two of them.

Chen Yan came downstairs fully armed, holding the loaded Skylark-300 in his right hand, and looked into the cat's eyes.

No one was outside the gate.

Huh?
what's the situation?
Before his vision left the cat's eyes, in the empty and dim vision, there was a voice outside the door again.

This time it was a knock on the door.

"Bang, bang."

The knock on the door was less than ten centimeters away from Chen Yan's heart.

But there was no one outside the door.
