She hadn't been sure when Hitzfeld mentioned it to her before, but now she was 100% sure - the path of the spirit possessor was wrong!
“It’s not that exaggerated.” The cloaked man snorted in the shadows. “People who are touched by the raindrops will be sucked into his nightmare world. Some with high qualifications can withstand it and come out safely, but those with low qualifications cannot. They may even be corrupted and come out as monsters on the spot.”
"Then why..." Hitzfeld frowned deeply, "Since there is such a big hidden danger, why did Sarah still..."
"Why not control Hisoka?" Priss nodded. "Of course, we are not doing nothing."
"First of all, you have to make it clear that we all trust Hisoka. He was indeed a reliable person before he was corrupted."
"Secondly, he took the initiative to leave Wayne after that incident. He was actually very confident that he could stop the rain, but he knew that some people would be afraid, so he took the initiative to use his own power to explore the ruins and find more hope for Sarah."
Is this the reason for exploring Laceres?
Hitzfeld fell silent.
"His spirit can only possess his own nightmares?" Xia Yibing tried to get to the bottom of it.
"Of course, that is the source of extraordinary power."
"What if it's against an evil spirit? What if it's against a nightmare monster?"
"This is another reason why we trust him. We all know that nightmare monsters and evil spirits are monsters born from the influence of gray fog. They are very sensitive to emotions and dreams. A nightmare can be said to be an infinite loop after the nightmare is released. Suddenly, some raindrops... raindrops carrying another nightmare penetrate directly into its body. Guess what will happen?"
"Will it die?"
“Its nightmare will collapse,” said Purcell. “The balance that constitutes its existence will be broken, and the external manifestation is that it will dissolve in the rain with a wail.”
"Evil spirits are no exception?"
"Without exception."
That makes sense.
Hitzfeld thought.
In this way, although there are indeed greater hidden dangers, the lethality of the spirits to evil spirits is also extremely exaggerated. It is not ruled out that some people who know the situation would like to have such people living in the city. After all, they can hide from the rain in the city. If they can't hide, they will just have a nightmare. However, those monsters who don't know how to hide from the rain will be completely melted in the rain.
This is also in line with the characteristics of "Nightmare Spirit Awakening", which is to use hidden dangers to exchange for combat effectiveness. From this aspect, the attached spirit and the present spirit are indeed in the same lineage.
But soon Hitzfeld felt scared again, because she realized that during the death ticket case, he had transformed into a spirit possessed by Deepnes, and the reason why he did not use this ability might be that the evil god game restricted him.
"Deepnes doesn't have that ability." Pursi shook her head. "A huge amount of spiritual energy has been gathered. It can pull people within a certain range into that crazy nightmare like a whirlpool, but it can't rain anymore."
That is, more convergence, but at the expense of the original skills?
Hitzfeld kept thinking about the key.
She still sticks to her point of view, that the path of "possession" is flawed.
As long as the loopholes in their hearts are not solved, all extraordinary people will never have peace of mind. They borrow power from nightmares, destroy their own hearts again and again, cut their inner selves into pieces, and then worry about becoming rebellious monsters after falling.
Isn’t this ending too cruel and unfair?
When she first obtained the knowledge of the Mysterious Lord, she had wanted to change this situation, but later she realized that allowing the knowledge of the Evil God system to cover her would do more harm than good - this upgrade system created by the Great One specifically for the Namiyans contained huge hidden dangers.
If it is really covered, then she is actually helping the evil god to destroy civilization.
But now she has found another way. That is, as long as she can find a way to truly accept the suffering self in the nightmare and no longer regard the nightmare as torture, she will have a chance to completely eliminate this hidden danger.
She shared her views with Pusance, who listened very carefully.
"I'm glad you've found your own way." The cloaked man nodded, "But I don't think you'll change the status quo."
"Why?" Hitzfeld didn't understand. "Hasn't anyone ever done this before me?"
It may be difficult, but she believes that as long as the base number is large enough, the possibility will not be zero.
"There have been people in history who were indifferent to nightmares, but that was because their emotional models were rather special," Pusiangsi said coldly. "Everyone's nightmares are different. How can you guarantee that your method is universal?"
"We can try first."
"I've tried it, but it doesn't work."
"That's not a reason to give up!"
"Sarah doesn't have the extra resources for something like this!"
Seeing that the debate between teacher and student became heated, Xia Yibing stretched her body on the chair, stretched her legs straight, and put her left foot on the instep of her right foot.
In fact, she also thought that Hitzfeld's idea was wonderful.
Take herself as an example - admittedly, she has now transitioned to this stage and nightmares have almost no effect on her, but that is not only because Laurel has tempered her will, but also because her wish has been fulfilled.
She was loved again.
She wanted that angel, and she got it.
The missing part of her soul was filled by Aisuen Hitzfell, and she no longer had to experience the cycle of misery in nightmares - this was the core reason why she could get to this point.
Maybe Hitzfeld is right, and the external environment that can heal each agent's nightmare can be tailored to their needs.
For example, arranging lovers to fall in love with them, creating friendships, creating family ties, and so on.
But as the director, Xia Yibing knew about those past files - it's not like the Security Bureau has never done these things.
I have done it before, and I have not stopped until now. Isn't it for this reason that the so-called recuperation and the so-called internal atmosphere are advocated?
But that effect really cannot be created by human power.
The best you can do is to list the conditions, and give those people the choice to choose whether to face this warm and blooming world, or to face the dark nightmare in their hearts?
It sounds easy and everyone knows how to choose, but in the end almost no one chooses the former.
That's no longer just a nightmare.
As the source of power for the extraordinary, every time they use their power, they fall one step further into the abyss. Their connection with nightmares will become closer and closer, just like falling into a spider web. No matter how hard they struggle, they will only accelerate the process of suffocation.
It's not that simple.
Aisuen, I know you are thinking about everyone. I appreciate your kindness on behalf of everyone, but it's really not that simple. This can't be done...
Click!
Suddenly, the door opened. Sixus's iconic stinky face came out from behind, and when he saw this scene, he curled his lips and said, "You invited me to watch such a good show?"
"Connie."
Hitzfeld calmed down a little and looked back into the doctor's eyes.
She was not convinced. She knew that some things were difficult, but Sarah's conditions were better than before, right? Since those people were "warriors" and one of the core elements of civilization, where else could they invest their resources if not here?
To put it bluntly, it is the gap in ideology and vision. Because Sara is a feudal society, power is relatively concentrated, but people here are still not very sensitive to "concentrated power."
some things……
Some things can be done at any cost...
But she also understood that she was thinking too simply.
It’s not that she felt her point of view was wrong, but she felt that she had previously thought that this plan would receive full support from everyone - this was too simplistic.
It is indeed a bit reckless. Regardless of whether the status quo is reasonable or not, it has been operating steadily and has lasted for so many years. The risk of breaking it rashly... not everyone is willing to take it.
So that's where this topic ends.
There was no point in saying more. Maybe she could try to find a feasible path in her own way, but at least before all this happened, she couldn't change anything.
So let’s move on to the next topic.
"Connie."
The doctor's name was spoken again, and her entire body turned to face her, creating a manorial and solemn atmosphere.
"Answer me honestly, is your heart with Wayne?"
The mixed-haired loli had that sarcastic expression on her face the moment before, but her face suddenly changed when she heard her ask this.
"How do you know this?"
"Your heart isn't in Wayne?" Hitzfeld demanded immediately. "Answer me, Connie, is your decision to ask us to go to Manion related to your heart?"
So this is why she asked Connie to come?
Xia Yibing quietly stood up from the chair, reached her right hand into her clothes, and grasped the handle of the pistol.
Although this possibility is not impossible, she wants to prepare for the worst outcome.
They all knew that Conte-Sixus was not a human.
She was a person who lived in the era when the gray fog disaster raged more than a hundred years ago. The reason she is still alive today is because she ate the research results left by her father - a processed "Mimetic Demon" heart!
Since then, her species has changed. Although she has always considered herself human and has always been a staunch ally of Sara, just as some people do not trust Sisso-Grest and want to expel him, the foundation of this cooperation has always been based on one thing: Sara controls her heart.
That was her new heart after she ascended to her new form. It was dug out and stored away. As long as the heart was intact, Conte-Sixus would not die. If the heart was destroyed, she would be seriously injured.
Sarah must have done experiments on this point, otherwise she would not be trusted to use her. Xia Yibing immediately sorted out the cause and effect, so of course she had to prevent the heart from falling into the hands of someone with ulterior motives and Sixus from being controlled.
"You are really smart..."
She took a deep breath and grinned slightly.
"Answer her or she's not!"
Xia Yibing warned her.
She even had her gun drawn and the safety on, aiming at the doctor.
"It's not as bad as you think."
Exhaling, Xixus found a place to sit down.
Since I can't hide it anymore, I might as well talk about it.
"In the end what happened."
Hitzfeld tilted his head slightly and looked at her.
"Tell the truth, okay?"
"We are not trying to arrest you, on the contrary, we want to help you..."
“It’s missing.”
"Ok?"
"It is indeed in Magnon, stored in an obscure monastery!"
Sixus suddenly exploded, screaming a little hysterically.
"I just found out about this not long ago, do you understand?"
"It's like it's my responsibility!"
"I don't want to either!"
"Do you understand!?"
After venting her anger, she calmed down and leaned back in her chair, looking like she didn't want to bother with anyone anymore.
Xia Yibing looked at Hitzfeld.
Hitzfeld was looking at her, too.
That means there is a decision.
Nodding, the woman put the gun away.
"Connie," she said.
"We need all the information."
Chapter 9: Elwin's Satellite of David (Two in One)
"It's a place called the Abbey of the Heart," Sixus said bluntly, "...I can only tell you what it is called in the information they gave me. I don't know where it is exactly!"
Jianxin Monastery?
This name shows that Sarah had intended to hide the heart in Manion from the beginning.
This may be because they feel that the location is too remote and will not attract attention, and Sixus himself is more focused on working in Wayne. Placing the "Lich's Life Box" and the "Lich itself" in the same city... some people may think this is too dangerous.
To put it bluntly, they don't trust Sixus and are afraid that she will lose control. The mixed-haired loli said that she was only told the name of the storage location, but in fact, Hitzfeld suspected that even this name was fake.
That might just be some kind of pseudonym. After all, storing the "heart" in the "Jianxin" monastery is too straightforward a name. If it is a covert operation, it shouldn't be treated so lightly.
It is even possible that the actual location of the heart is not a monastery at all. The entire name entry is misleading.
