At this time, Masha left the dream.
He immediately observed what Makarov looked like in reality.
——I did sweat a lot, but I can’t say that the nightmare had no effect at all.
——I didn’t expect him to be such a tough guy.
Masha's girls surrounded him, each with questions written all over their face, but no one spoke, for fear that the sound would wake Makarov from his sleep.
Masha picked up the gyroscope, took off the wall-penetrating ring, and then began to wind the spring of the battle gyroscope launcher.
After a few dozen seconds, Masha installed the wall-penetrating ring again and released the gyroscope.
The next moment he fell into dreamland again.
Then he found that the dream was a little strange.
Makarov was standing in a place that looked a bit like a live-fire shooting range, with his right hand raised and his left hand holding his right upper arm.
He stared at a large rock in front of him, spread out the five fingers of his right hand, facing his palm towards the rock, and then made a sound like constipation.
Masha did nothing, but the stone did not move at all.
——What's going on? Could it be that I just made him think that he had lost his ability, and this cognition in turn affected his dream?
Masha decided to let the dream develop naturally and observe from the side.
At this time, a man appeared. He was about sixty years old and had a half bald head.
Masha guessed that this half-bald man was the "big shot in Moscow".
----
I didn't write that this half-bald man has a map birthmark on his head. Comrades from Lubyanka, please don't come to me.
Also, what the hell are these 400+ razor blades today? Don’t throw them in, I’m going to offer a bounty next Monday.
If you throw it away now and I offer a reward later, and you come and complain that you submitted it too early, I will not be responsible.
Chapter 371: Hmm~ah~not spicy anymore! (Second update)
Makarov started talking to the half-bald man, but Masha couldn't understand anything.
This is all a dream. Can't everyone communicate with thoughts like the new humans in the Gundam UC series?
Masha was so angry. It felt like the information was right in front of him, but he couldn't understand it!
Fortunately, Makarov said a few words to the half-bald man, and then he started to make some noises and try to use his ability to move the big rock.
Masha thought about it and decided to start strengthening Makarov's awareness that "I have lost my ability."
But it was just an interference in the dream, at least allowing this half-bald man to continue to act according to Makarov's own dream rules.
——In this way, it should be more realistic!
So Masha started interfering with the grass around the big rock.
He made the grass look as if it was being pulled by gravity, but as soon as Makarov's expression changed, he immediately made the grass start to sway in the wind.
——This ambiguous feeling of seeming to have restored his abilities, yet not having them, might be more impressive than simply preventing Makarov from using his abilities.
After Masha repeated this several times, Makarov stopped and looked at his hands in confusion.
——Why does he use his abilities with hand movements?
——Sometimes I use my abilities with hand movements, but that’s all subconscious. I can easily give commands to my magic weapon without raising my hands.
Masha carefully recalled the scenes when Chihiro used her abilities. Chihiro seemed to raise her hands often, and it felt like raising hands was the "starting step" to use her abilities.
——But the League Secretary, Cai Shi and Shelley felt the same as me, they just subconsciously raised their hands to cooperate when using their abilities.
Makarov's current performance made Masha begin to think about the meaning behind this detail.
——Speaking of the similarities between Makarov and Chihiro, in addition to the fact that they are both psychics who use gravity distortion, the first thing that comes to mind is that they have both received systematic training from the World Government.
——Although the organizational form of the agency that manages psychics in the Soviet Union should be very different from the office, if they are all psychic management agencies under the World Government, the training methods they adopt should be similar.
——I remember that Director Xue of the monitoring center of the office with a very long name said that he received training abroad.
Masha couldn't remember what the place was called for a moment, but it was something related to Bai Xue.
If you think about it this way, it's very likely that Chihiro and Makarov received the same training.
This set of training probably uses movement as a trigger to activate abilities.
Through a lot of training, a conditioned reflex connection is established between the body's movements and the activation of abilities, so that no matter what the situation is, as long as the body moves, the ability will be used subconsciously.
Masha recalled a comic she had read recently called "Kaguya-sama: Love is War", in which the heroine Kaguya-sama acquired the skill through training to calm down as a conditioned reflex just by touching her cheek.
——It’s probably something like this? But this is a comic, can comics count?
——I’d better ask Chihiro after we get out.
Masha thought so, and while waiting for the gyroscope to stop spinning and return to the real world, he continued to make Makarov doubt his life.
Finally, Masha left the dream. He looked down at the spinning top, reached out to take down the wall-penetrating ring, and then picked up the spinning top while asking Chihiro: "You should have received training on how to use your abilities, right? In that training, would body movements be used as triggers to trigger abilities?"
Chihiro answered: "Almost. To be precise, it is to establish a conditioned reflex between physical movements and triggering abilities. My instructor is a very particular person, so he has been working hard to train me so that I can use my abilities at will even without physical movements. However, many instructors who want to save trouble simply bind the use of abilities to physical movements."
“Is there such an instructor?”
"The idea of doing things for a day is very popular everywhere. Especially when I was training, awakening was a very rare thing. There were only a few cases in the whole Greater China region in a month. The whole organization was very idle. So everyone's sense of responsibility was worn out."
"Oh, I see." Masha wound up the battle beyblade launcher and launched the beyblade to the ground.
This time, Masha saw the same dream scene, but after careful observation, he found that when Makarov was "constipated" in front of the big rock, the grass around the big rock would behave as if it was pulled by gravity, but as long as Makarov stopped being "constipated", the grass would begin to sway in the wind.
Masha is thinking of filming a video of Makarov in his current state, adding some local hit song "Seaweed Seaweed", and putting it on Tik Tok. Maybe it will become a hit.
——I feel like if I just work harder now, I can completely destroy the connection between body movements and super powers that already exists in Makarov's head.
At this time, Makarov was suddenly no longer constipated. He began to hit his head desperately, feeling as if his spirit could suddenly no longer be held back and began to explode.
——Oh! What a great opportunity!
So Masha changed the dream and made Makarov blow his head off with a hammer.
Makarov's flying head looked in surprise at the headless body still spurting blood on the ground.
Then, the dream changed and Makarov suddenly sat up in bed.
The surroundings were still his bedroom in the base - of course, this was still a dream, a dream created by Masha.
Makarov was sweating profusely - this waterfall of sweat was also created by Masha.
In short, Makarov now feels like a person who has just woken up from a terrible nightmare.
He looked at the palm of his hand, silent.
Masha let the phone on the bedside table ring.
Makarov's shoulders trembled, obviously startled, and then he turned his head to look at his phone, with a thoughtful look on his face.
He slowly stretched out his right hand towards the phone, but did not take it. Instead, he let his hand stop in mid-air with a serious expression.
He probably needs to use his abilities.
Masha waited for Makarov to make a constipated sound.
But he didn't. Instead, he raised his left hand again and pressed down on his right arm.
——I guess this is the way his Soviet instructors taught him to “exert force” when his strength is not enough.
Makarov took a deep breath.
Then he uttered with full energy: "Hmm↗↘↗↘ah↘↗↗↗"
——The air suddenly became philosophical!
Masha made the small note on the table float up as if blown by the wind, and then slowly fell to the ground.
Makarov looked at the note.
He raised his hands and held his head like a helpless child.
—Oh, I feel like I’ve done something amazing!
Suddenly, Makarov began to yell hysterically.
In an instant, Masha decided to stop interfering with the dream and let the dream develop freely.
Then the bedroom door was opened, and Makarov's four companions rushed in, saying something to Makarov.
Makarov yelled at them, then pointed his hands at them and roared!
The four bald guys who entered the room all fell to the ground in an instant, and the one at the door even held on to the door frame tightly.
The shocked crowd looked at Makarov, while Makarov looked at his hands.
Suddenly, a bald man said something.
Although Masha didn't understand Russian, he could guess that the other party was asking "Have you lost your ability?"
Makarov didn't answer, and continued to look down at his hands.
The four bald men looked at each other.
Suddenly, all four of them showed a smile that indicated "I'll kill you while you're sick."
——What the hell?
Masha thought he had subconsciously interfered with his dream, but then one of the four bald men began to speak Russian.
—Well, it wasn’t me.
Makarov turned around and pulled out the pistol from under the pillow, but he was immediately engulfed by the attack from his companions.
——Awesome!
As soon as Masha expressed this emotion, he was squeezed out of the dream.
I looked down and saw that the gyroscope was still spinning.
——Makarov is awake!
Masha made a prompt decision.
"Chihiro! Pull!" he shouted.
Qianxun and the league secretary took action at the same time.
Masha squatted down suddenly to prevent himself from being pulled closer to the wall-penetrating circle by Makarov's ability.
The other girls only reacted when they saw this.
Masha heard Makarov's roar.
There was also the sound of the wall being smashed by the bald head - or maybe it was the sound of the bald head being smashed by the wall?
Chapter 372: Captives
Masha took down the wall-penetrating ring without saying a word - even if he succeeded, the guy this time could fly, and no one knew if he could fly out.
If you fail, you must quickly take down the circle to prevent counterattack.
After taking the circle, Masha controlled the car to move, passing through the wall to Makarov's bedroom side.
There was a circular hole on the wall, which was obviously left by Chihiro sucking the cement that blocked the exit of the wall-penetrating circle into the circle.
Makarov disappeared along with his bed.
Virtually everything in the room that was not fixed disappeared.
-Success!
——As expected, Makarov was affected by the dream and was unable to use his ability to counter Chihiro in the first place!
The moment Masha was forced out of the dream, he decided to launch a surprise attack. He didn't want to gamble on the effect of what he did in the dream. However, this kind of surprise attack would have a great chance of success as long as Makarov hesitated for a moment.
Obviously, Masha's efforts in the dream won over that moment of hesitation and created the conditions for the successful raid.
At this time, Makarov's four bald men all rushed into the room.
Masha wanted to use the combination of wall-penetrating circle and Qianxun's secretary to deal with these four as well.
