Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed

Supernatural power is a strange thing.

Many people say that crime will disappear with the progress of science and society, and the emergence of extraordinary powers will accelerate this process. But this statement has never been fulfilled.

In fact, after the spiritual energy was revived, all kinds of crimes not only did not disappear, but became more and more rampant.

Today, four years after the revival of spiritual energy, the power of criminals has even become one of the main reasons for troubling social order.

As one of the leaders of the aura incident countermeasures brigade, Su Beiluo knew the inside story very well.

Just the day before yesterday, with the help of his colleagues, he captured a criminal who caused a vicious serial murder in a remote village.

A patient with an 'extraordinary disease'.

The criminal is a young man in his early twenties who is very talented and is the most talented among local young people. It took him four years to break through the boundaries of awakening and reach the preliminary level of transcendence. This was also among the top results in the transcendence department of state-level academies, and his future was promising.

He is the pride of the local people. He has made his family proud, his parents and relatives are full of praises, and all the people in the village hope to gain connections. He himself is about to rise rapidly and become a representative of local practitioners. It is the time of success in his life.

But this young man brutally killed twenty-four people in a row within two months. All of them were dismembered and dissected, and even their souls were in pieces. Most of the victims were his relatives and acquaintances, and a small number of them were passing by by chance. of innocent people.

This is very unusual, even unbelievable. If the evidence were not too conclusive, even the victim's relatives would not be able to believe that the murderer was the promising young man.

In the end, according to the on-the-spot investigation in Northern Jiangsu, it was determined that the circumstances of this vicious serial murder case were particularly abominable, the methods were particularly cruel, and the consequences were particularly serious. Officials issued important instructions, and finally the Aura Incident Countermeasures Brigade located the absconding deep in a cave in the mountains. The criminal was arrested, but in the end the criminal still did not intend to be arrested, and instead violently resisted the arrest.

The young man is indeed a genius, and his self-taught spiritual spells can control the spirit, frighten the gods, and destroy people's souls.

If Su Beiluo hadn't worn the bracelet made by his own son, the first human being today, and a hazy holy white light appeared directly, protecting his whole body and easily blocking the blow, then even he would have practiced so much Awakening to a high level will not lead to immediate death, but I am afraid that you will also become seriously ill due to the pure soul impact.

But even so, this matter is still embarrassing.

It stands to reason that the conscience produced by the progress of social morality will prevent him from attacking familiar villagers. The surveillance cameras produced by the advancement of science and technology will make it impossible for him to hide after committing crimes. And the various tracking techniques after the emergence of extraordinary powers It will also make it impossible for criminals to escape the trap even if they travel all over the world.

With these three constraints, ordinary people who are slightly normal will never want to commit a crime. Even if they are short of money, coerced by others, and desperate, they will never embark on this destined path of death.

After all, killing people, killing their own kind, and killing chickens, cows, and trampling bugs are not the same thing. In many cases, killing people will not be one of the choices for ordinary people to solve problems.

But patients with extraordinary diseases are different.

They stay among people like foxes among chickens or wolves among sheep.

They will not feel any guilt or guilt when they hurt humans, but will feel pleasure instead.

They have no ethics and morals, and their strength exceeds that of ordinary people, making it difficult for technological supervision to be effective. In the absence of senior monks coming to investigate, the tracking of ordinary monks will be interfered with by them, and they may even be hunted by them.

Why?

Because of extraordinary power.

Supernatural power is a strange thing.

The vast majority of ordinary people cannot truly control extraordinary power. They can only regard this power as a kind of enhancement, such as enhanced arms, enhanced appetite, enhanced thinking speed, and then continue to live according to their past habits. , is just a simple repetition of the past. Most of the current folk practitioners are in this state.

If you do not do this, but regard this power as a third hand, flying wings, second brain, some kind of proof that you are beyond ordinary people, then the practitioner's mentality will quickly become unbalanced. If it is not stabilized through practice, It will quickly become distorted and lose its 'humanity'.

Under the introduction of his wife, Su Beiluo came to the Cultivation Specialty Hospital and asked Dr. Liu, a capable middle-aged woman in her fifties who was also very well-known among the authorities in the relevant profession.

Human common sense is very fragile. If a person knows that he can fly at will, he will not be afraid when he sees a cliff, nor will he be afraid when he comes to high places. Many desperate situations in this world have become a nightmare to him. Smooth road - It is impossible for such an individual to still maintain the same way of thinking as ordinary people, and they will lose part of their humanity.

Dr. Liu's explanation not only answered some of Su Beiluo's doubts, but also made him more confused.

So what is the relationship between supernatural diseases and human nature?

At that time, Su Beiluo asked in confusion. Dr. Liu could see that if he didn't explain clearly, it would be difficult for him to leave the office today, so he sighed and explained in detail.

Normal practitioners, even if they lose their humanity, still have the 'Tao heart' generated by long-term practice to maintain their mental health. The so-called Tao heart is a kind of heart that can accommodate both basic human morality and practitioners. Three views of special thinking patterns. The Tao mind depends on the person. Some people are born with the Tao mind, so they can practice quickly without adjusting their mental state. They can be brave and diligent without fear of abnormality.

Patients with extraordinary diseases have no Taoist mind. It is a special disease that occurs after the patient's humanity has been lost to the limit. Extraordinary disease is not a psychological disease, but a disease of the body and soul. The peak period of the disease is The peak of the awakening stage breaks through to the beginning of the extraordinary level. Generally, the first onset of the disease is when the patient practices spiritual power organs for the first time. The original normal human organs are replaced by the spiritual power organs obtained through practice.

Because the spiritual organs do not have neural reflexes in the usual sense, but instead provide information feedback through the soul, this will lead to brain disorders that are still within the normal biological category of the patient, hormone secretion imbalance, various hallucinations and phantom pain, or... Abnormal excitement or depression. The more spiritual organs there are, the more serious the brain disorder will be, until the brain itself is transformed into a spiritual organ.

This process was also called in ancient times the return of acquired nature to innate nature. The ordinary brain thinking structure was gradually replaced by the soul and divine will. The fragile thinking mode that would be affected by hormones was eventually replaced by a strong Taoist heart. General practice Everyone will go through this process.”

But during this period, the patient's extraordinary power increased rapidly, but the brain was still a human brain. The conflict between common sense and power was too great, leading to a complete mental breakdown and loss of humanity. This is the cause of most extraordinary diseases.

This is the judgment that most doctors make on patients with extraordinary diseases.

Su Beiluo understood very well.

Human beings themselves are complex organic machines that rely on brain hormone secretion to determine psychological conditions.

When the human brain has extraordinary power but cannot control it, it will make people a slave to power.

Just like the young man Su Beiluo arrested himself, because he was addicted to the pleasure of improving his strength, he could kill his relatives and friends without any scruples, using their bodies and souls as experimental materials, as a stepping stone for his further advancement.

Because he possesses extraordinary power, he cannot treat ordinary people as the same kind, and he has completely lost human empathy and guilt.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Practitioners who begin to transform their spiritual organs from the extraordinary level can hardly be regarded as human beings according to the definition of traditional biology. There is no genetic structure in their spiritual organs. , but a special semi-spiritual organism, another special inheritance code.

The gap between a fully spiritualized transcendent and a human being is greater than that between a human and an ant. Like an elemental ball of fire, how could it have a blood connection with a mortal body?

He doesn't even have blood.

Therefore, practitioners need to stabilize their souls and strengthen their state of mind.

The reason why people are human is because they have a human heart.

Otherwise, after achieving extraordinary achievements, it is just a trivial matter to have physical damage. What is more likely is a drastic change in temperament, invasion of external evil spirits, obsession, and almost becoming another person - after all, even the structure of brain cells may change. There will be changes. If the soul is not stable enough and cannot maintain the old three views, then it is absolutely possible to become a completely different person after advancing.

As the saying goes, Cultivation of one's life but not one's nature is the first disease. This is the truth. This disease is a disease of demons, an extraordinary disease.

In the ancient age of immortals and gods, practitioners were selected. Most practitioners were born with a stable state of mind and an unshakable Tao heart. They could successfully survive the stage of loss of human nature, return from nurture to innate, and return to innate. Derived from the innate soul, the natural power is completely indestructible, and the three views are stable, becoming a human immortal who is indomitable and unchanged in his original intention.

However, in modern times, after the revival of spiritual energy, the practice of strength has been popularized, but the practice of Tao Xin has not kept up.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the prevalence of supernatural diseases, that is, the prevalence of 'demon possession' in ancient times.

It's strange to say, why doesn't my son have this condition?

Sitting at his desk, picking up his tea cup and taking a sip of tea, Su Beiluo asked himself in confusion: No matter how you look at it, he has never looked like a normal person since he was a child.

But this question made Su Zhou, who came to visit his old father, feel quite embarrassed.

Dad, what are you talking about... How could I get an extraordinary disease! My Taoist heart is so strong that nothing will happen to you if you blow it up with a nuclear bomb!

But I doubt it...

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Su Beiluo smiled teasingly at Su Zhou, then patted the table and motioned for his son to sit down: I've seen that video. You ate that ghost car alive in the Beast God Realm. The process of falling off makes me worry about your mental state now.

Furthermore, it is said that you can take off your head and disassemble and assemble parts of your body at will - this is a sign of extraordinary diseases, that is, you do not take human common sense seriously at all!

Not to mention, what you did when you were a child... In order to save trouble, you would even occasionally climb through the window and jump off the building instead of taking the stairs. Instead, you would look for ghosts and supernatural events everywhere. Now it seems that these things are extremely dangerous. .”

this……

Su Zhou was choked.

There is one thing to say, indeed. From childhood to adulthood, everything he did has nothing to do with ordinary people's common sense. If I have to say it, it is not so much that his Taoist heart has been stable since he was a child, it is better to say that he has been possessed by the devil from the beginning, but now he is possessed by the devil. It's just stabilized.

But this does not affect his current mental health at all. He is sunny and friendly and is a good boy.

At this time, Su Beiluo looked at the time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

He raised his head and looked at Su Zhou: Okay, no more chatting. You are such an elusive kid. Why did you suddenly think of visiting me today?

I'm here to visit you, and ask how your work has been recently.

Su Zhou shook his head. No matter what others thought, he was a person who had deep feelings for his family.

At this point, even young people who are regarded as monsters by others are just like ordinary people.

Anyway, if you have any questions, just tell me. After all, I recently heard that the global crime rate has increased further, and I am really worried.

...Actually, except for the extraordinary diseases that pop up from time to time, in general, other ordinary criminal incidents have almost disappeared.

In this regard, Su Beiluo pondered for a moment, but could only shake his head: Look at the American Federation, although the number of homicides caused by supernatural diseases has increased sharply, and it is not surprising that thousands of people die every day, but traditional shootings, Deaths from traffic accidents and various accidents have been greatly reduced, and the overall mortality rate has even dropped a lot.

Although our place is better, there is no essential difference... But since you asked, I do think the details of some cases are a bit strange.

After all, he was not an outsider, and Su Zhou was even considered Su Beiluo's immediate boss in terms of his position, so the middle-aged man had nothing to say.

Specifically, when capturing some patients with extraordinary diseases, some patients with extraordinary diseases would use powerful spell attacks beyond the data, and some could even use particularly strange magical powers, causing some casualties to the brigade.

These magical powers are all extremely strange and powerful. Not only are they inconsistent with the local cultivation inheritance, there are even no traces of them in the Zhengguo inheritance library.

Su Beiluo initially suspected whether it was smuggling of foreign heritage, but later found no relevant clues. Therefore, the source of these dangerous spells became an open case, and he did not know how to deal with it.

After Su Zhou listened, he immediately understood what was going on.

——Isn’t this the devil?

Human beings can also become demons, or in other words, become dependents of great beings. This is a matter of course.

It's just that in densely populated places, because there is a great formation of order, the information interference of the great being is not strong, so the familialization of human beings has always been very rare. However, in remote villages, there is indeed a possibility that there will be loopholes in the great formation of order, causing humans to be inspired.

Unlike ordinary supernatural diseases, demonized humans do not have any empathy and do not regard humans as their own kind. However, the most terrifying thing about them is the various supernatural powers of their families that they spontaneously know.

Your mother, after returning from Qingqiu Planet some time ago, was urgently transferred to study the corpses of these patients with abnormal supernatural diseases. According to her, the relationship between those 'human beings' and us is only superficially similar.

Su Beiluo said this, holding the handle of the tea cup with his hand, and his tone was obviously worried: Although the world seems calm now, it is actually turbulent secretly... Let's not talk about the daily encounters of us front-line law enforcement officers. Criminals are becoming more sophisticated, and just looking at the policies around the world, you can tell something is wrong.

...What's wrong?

Su Zhou couldn't help frowning when he heard this. In the past year or two, he has basically been running around, in the Beast God Realm, other worlds, Qingqiu Planet, the moon, various secret realms... In general, he spends less time on the earth and more time outside. It’s true that I don’t know much about the policy status of countries around the world today.

Now the whole world is forcibly promoting the system of monogamy.

Su Beiluo picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp - Su Zhou was exactly the same as him in this regard. After putting down the tea cup, the middle-aged man showed a rather complicated expression: This is true no matter where, what country, or what power.

In places like Russia, there is even a state policy of compulsory blind dates and the complete elimination of the single population.

Is that so?

As soon as Su Beiluo finished speaking, even Su Zhou was slightly shocked: Their population is so small? Do they actually want to use such coercive means to increase their population?

How can it be so simple?

Su Beiluo raised his head, glanced at his son calmly, and then shook his head: You brat, although you are ridiculously strong, you are still very young in this regard... But you have never been married, that's all. .”

Think about it carefully. If monogamy is not enforced, then powerful extraordinary beings can naturally occupy more relevant resources, regardless of men and women. And if there is such a group of people who are deprived of relevant possibilities , neither they nor they have families and children to worry about, so what kind of social unrest will this group of people unleash on all levels of society to cause social unrest?

This is no longer the past. We can no longer rely on war to get rid of the excess population... Forced monogamy and even forced marriage are necessary. Human productivity is developed, but if the consumer population does not increase, big problems will arise. of.

Su Zhou nodded slightly in silence, the young man looked serious.

He really never thought about this problem.

Su Beiluo glanced at his son's thoughtful expression, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: Also, you young people don't remember, but we, the older generation, still remember it clearly. The original 'source war'. The brutality of that war caused huge losses to the traditional energy industry, which is simply unbelievable. This is also the reason why your uncle Shao's family became rich. ①

Although all countries no longer need oil, an old energy source, due to the recovery of spiritual energy, the many spiritual energy nodes on the continent, the so-called blessed places, caves, and mythical secret realms, are also huge resources. The four permanent members of the Council have No one dares to interfere in the secret realm, but other small countries, as well as the secret realm in some disputed areas, have now become the focus of competition between the forces of various countries. On the surface, everyone is enjoying themselves, but in fact, secretly, small-scale wars may start at any time.

Having said this, Su Beiluo leaned against the chair.

His expression was calm, and only by talking to his son could Su Beiluo let go of the worries in his heart and confide a little bit of his troubles: When the time comes, our Zhengguo may also be involved... Then the whole world will explode like the past. 'Energy War' is exactly the same as 'Secret War'.

And once such a war starts, how many people will have to die before peace can be restored? Just thinking about it is disturbing.

...Indeed, the hidden contradictions in this world are deeper than I imagined.

In response, Su Zhou frowned slightly.

Because he has been running around in other places for many years, the young man really did not think seriously about the current state of the earth.

But now it all seems obvious.

The world is now at a huge fork in the road.

——Whether it is the cultivator class that is too calm and has lost the motivation to compete.

——Or the ‘supernatural diseases’ and ‘human demons’ that are gradually spreading and becoming more and more common.

——Even the simple competition for spiritual energy resources and population growth problem will lead human civilization to a fork in the road.

The resurgence of spiritual energy has healed many conflicts in the past, but it has also induced some brand new ones.

In many things, there are problems that need to be decided and solved.

If the problem is not solved now but is allowed to pass by as time passes, then the civilization on earth will most likely be solved by the problem...

But at that time, it was difficult to recover, even if the gods came again, it would be difficult to end.

Since we cannot sit idly by and ignore this world that is gradually heading towards chaos, we must take action to change it.

It just so happens that Su Zhou is the person who can change the world.

I can solve all these problems.

Under the slightly shocked expression of his old father, Su Zhou stood up and showed a smile.

Extraordinary disease is an inconspicuous disease in the mind and body. It is indeed impossible to confirm it with ordinary detection magic. However, with the 'eye for evil' peeled off from my magical power, I can clearly see the overflowing heart of a person. Thoughts are good or evil, and I only need to slightly modify them so that they can identify whether there is a lack of humanity, and I can easily find patients with extraordinary diseases among the crowd.

As for evil spirits, they are even simpler. My evil eye can easily identify them.

As for activating the cultivator class, I have already begun to make adjustments. If you turn on your phone, dad, you can see the latest news... You are also very capable, maybe you can try participating in one or two competitive events?

As for the many conflicts between countries around the world...

With that said, Su Zhou turned around and opened the door of Su Beiluo's office.

The young man smiled confidently: Just wait for next week's international news.

I will give them all, all those who seek to cause unrest, a reason to be peaceful!

Bang.

The door is closed.

Su Zhou has left.

Wait, you kid!

After hearing Su Zhou's reply, Su Beiluo stood up in shock and quickly opened the door, wanting to catch up with him and ask him what he planned to do.

But at this time, Su Zhou had turned into a stream of light, passed through the window of the countermeasures brigade office building, and disappeared from the other side of the sky.

Quickly walking to the window, the middle-aged man raised his head and looked at the bluish-purple light that was flying rapidly in the distance. He didn't know whether to sigh or laugh.

Silly boy... He also said that he is not sick. Most people use the door. How can any normal person use the window?

And right now.

The other side of the world.

American Federation, Alaska, new headquarters of the Litany of the Holy Serpent Spirit.

Void Ritual Chamber.

Among a group of mysterious people who were arranged in a circle in a dark chamber inlaid with many gold and gemstones, closing their eyes and meditating, praying to the void, one of the leaders suddenly opened his eyes with joy.

Sir?! You are finally back!

This feminine young man with long blond hair stood up, making the gemstones and gold jewelry hanging all over his body knock against each other, making a crisp sound.

The ceremony was interrupted - but no one expressed displeasure.

Because everyone has sensed that there is a grand and far-reaching will from the far side, which is setting off waves in the depths of everyone's souls.

However, only Crosell could clearly hear the sound of the wave.

【——Innovation——Innovation——Innovation——】

There seems to be such a sound, playing at the bottom of nothingness.

And a calm and indifferent young voice, in this background sound, directly resounded in Crosell's soul.

【Crossell. 】

Sir, I'm listening!

Without any hesitation, the leader of this generation of the Holy Snake Spirit Litany knelt on one knee. Even though there was nothing in front of him, he was not rude.

[Next week, I will go to the American Federation. 】

The young man's voice was cold and ruthless, with a hint of chill that seemed to make one's soul tremble. It was a bit of violence inadvertently released by a man who had killed thousands of people.

He whispered: [Later, tell me the current situation of the American Federation, what are its internal conflicts, and the current official administrative tendencies of the American Federation, as well as the related decision-making tendencies of the NW Foundation. Tell me all. 】

[I will give you the reward you want. 】

Yes, my lord!

Although it is clear that Su Zhou can get information from Zhengguo officials, Crosell, who is a descendant of a senior NW Foundation executive, can guarantee that the information he knows is definitely a top-secret decision-making that cannot be collected by other countries' intelligence agencies.

As for leaking this kind of information, will there be any losses to the American Federation...

Hey, who cares - aside from the fact that he himself is the leader of an illegal occult organization.

In any case, instead of following the rules to practice and be the leader of a mysterious organization, as expected, it is better to follow this unfathomable man, God knows if he is a void god who has been reincarnated into the world, and even more Be cool!

Thinking of this, the handsome blond young man showed a slightly crazy smile: Follow your will!

[Well, very good. 】

Feeling the sincerity in Crossel's heart, Su Zhou's appreciation came from afar.

The main reason why he did not annihilate the Holy Snake Spirit Litany in the first place was because the remaining dead species were indeed not very evil. In addition, he wanted to give Yala a face and not take action against the organization that believed in him, so he did not destroy it. , get a grand slam.

But now it seems that this mysterious organization...or in other words, Crosell as the leader is indeed a talent that can be created.

Pursuing COOL, although it sounds a bit strange.

However, this tendency itself is the pursuit of better and more interesting possibilities.

In a sense, as long as you don't go astray...

So, this can be considered an innovation.

After retracting his spiritual thoughts, Su Zhou had reached an altitude of 400,000 meters and was flying rapidly in the near space. He looked down at the thin atmosphere below him and the earth showing an obvious arc.

This is a beautiful planet that deserves a better future.

Thinking this, he couldn't help but smile.

From 2014 to today, Reiki has been recovering for four years.

——Four years have passed.

The young man who pursued extraordinary things in the past is now the savior of the sacred tree world. He suppressed the overlord Shenlong of the beast god world, the pioneer and god-killer of the new era of the Tartadis world, and the executioner who destroyed many mysterious organizations and evil demons. Qingqiu Man's Savior.

In some worlds, young people with long titles may start to change their hometowns from today on.

Changed the earth.
