Monster Catching Daddy

Chapter 25 Psykers and Monsters

After Shen Chong visited the training area, mission area, living area, training area and many other areas open to the outside world, Chen Biao took him to the office of No.30 No. [-] Squadron.

On the road, the two turned around again and again, God knows how many rooms they passed through, Shen Chong had a deep understanding of the scale of this underground base, it was definitely bigger than a football field, and it was divided into three floors.

There is no one in the office now, there are nearly twenty partitioned desks sparsely arranged, and a monitor is placed on each desk, which resembles an ordinary office cubicle.

This made Shen Chong very uncomfortable. The layout here gave him a strong feeling of an office worker.

When he was an ordinary person in his previous life, he never experienced nine-to-five, so he can't have supernatural powers in this life, can he still live like this?
Next, the two went to the small conference room next to them and had a brief chat for an hour. Chen Biao and Shen Chong talked about many things comprehensively.

The two chatted from the birth of supernatural powers and monsters to the recent current situation, and finally talked about the difference between official members and non-staff members of Monster Slayer.

Since ancient times, strange things that ordinary people cannot understand have been collectively called demons.

The original demon was a general concept, which included not only the transformation of living beings into human beings after enlightenment, but also the supernormal abilities of people.

Until the last few decades, with the development of the scientific level, and with the increasing number of demons and demons who have turned into humans, the research theory on this aspect has finally been developed from scratch, and gradually refined comprehensively and systematically. come to generally accepted conclusions.

The reason why people awaken supernatural powers is because a spiritual source was born in their bodies.

This spiritual source is invisible, colorless, qualityless, and weightless, but it is generally recognized that it objectively exists in the human body.

A super powerful self-healing ability like Shen Chong's is a kind of external appearance inspired by the spiritual source.

Human beings with spiritual sources are collectively called psychics, not the supernatural beings that Shen Chong thought at first.

So far, no two identical spiritual sources have been found, just like no two identical leaves can be found in the world.

Two spiritual sources may be similar to infinitely close, but there must be subtle differences.

Based on a large amount of collected information, some big guys have generally classified the psykers in the world according to the way their abilities are expressed.

For the specific classification methods and reasons, Chen Biao asked Shen Chong to go back and check the information by himself.

Corresponding to human beings, creatures with enlightened intelligence, whether they are animals or plants, are collectively called monsters.

Human beings are already enlightened, and they get supernatural powers after possessing a spiritual source, while monsters are slightly different.

The monster first obtains a monster element that is similar to but slightly different from the spiritual source, and then activates the spiritual intelligence, and then obtains different innate abilities according to its own species and life trajectory.

The Yaoyuan of monsters is like the spiritual source of human beings, but the title is different, but the effect is similar.

The abilities brought by the Yaoyuan also have subtle differences, even if they are of the same family, the same subject and the same purpose, they will not be exactly the same.

Whether it is a psychic or a monster, there is a difference between innate and acquired.

Congenital refers to being born as a monster or a psychic, and usually has a family and blood inheritance, such as the Tianhu clan, or Chenjiagou where Chen Biao himself lives.

Acquired means that there is nothing special about this life when it is first born, but after it grows to a certain age, it happens that something happens by chance and coincidence, which stimulates the spiritual source or demon element that was originally in an inactive state.

For example, Shen Chong himself came back to life after being poisoned by gas. Even though the body now lives in another soul from a parallel world, the event can be understood as an adventure of "Shen Chong" in essence.

It's just a pity that his adventure was too tragic and the price was too heavy.

If Izumi knew it in my previous life, I would just want to scold the street, why am I only awakening my ability after I am dead, it is useless!
Of course, it is said that there are people who sneezed and rushed too hard so that there were stars in their eyes, and then awakened their spiritual source.

There is no distinction between nature and nurture. No matter whether it is a psychic or a monster, what level they can reach in the end is often determined by their own level of understanding, the quality of their talents, the level of cultivation methods, the experience of fighting and killing, and their willpower. There are many reasons to decide.

In terms of cultivation alone, monsters are easier than humans.

Monster cultivation depends on talent, there is no fixed method, it grows naturally under the urging of talent, of course, it can also be improved by devouring natural treasures or elixir, and it can also break through in daily meditation and fighting.

On the contrary, human beings still need various methods to strengthen the spiritual source, but if it is allowed to grow naturally, it will not grow much until death.

In ancient times, whether it was the awakening of the spiritual source or the catalysis of the demon element, it was mainly based on the inheritance of the family's innate blood, and there were very few births the day after tomorrow.

Because of the scarcity of the number and the restrictions imposed by hidden rules, even families with bloodline inheritance are rarely born to influence the overall situation of the world.

In the ancient prehistoric period, when civilization was first opened, when ordinary people lived a life of slash-and-burn farming, there were extremely powerful psychics such as Xuanyuan, Shennong, and Chiyou who were active in the world, promoting the evolution of civilization through war and fighting, and driving the improvement of various ethnic groups. tools, develop farming and animal husbandry, and more.

However, with the prosperity of humanity and the stability of the world, the bloodline inheritance of psychics and monsters has been weakened virtually. In order to ensure that the power of the gods does not completely dissipate, all forces have chosen to stop their flags, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, or open up another place. Self-cultivation in a small world of their own.

During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, Daji of the Tianhu clan was born against the trend, and it triggered a factional dispute between the psykers and monsters at that time. The world was in chaos, and the people were killed or injured.

All the major psychic powers and demon clans were condemned by the heavens and suffered heavy losses. Since then, they have kept secret about their birth.

In the thousands of years since then, although there have been occasional awakenings of amazingly talented and brilliant people, due to the spread of unsystematic cultivation methods, these geniuses have no talent but are unable to get started.

For example, Li Bing, Zu Chongzhi, Lu Bu, Yue Fei, or some sages from the Western Regions. These people may have unrivaled military power or the intelligence to create amazing achievements. They can always show great achievements in one way or another. Strength beyond its contemporaries.

But unfortunately, because the spiritual source and the demon element are not organized, and there is no one to guide them, many psychics may not know that their own strength is actually caused by the spiritual source, and they only think that they are talented.

Of course, there are also those who know that they are different from ordinary people, but because they are afraid of being punished as monsters and ghosts, they choose to stay low-key and regard it as their biggest secret, and their closest relatives dare not tell it frankly.

For example, the reason why Zhuge Wuhou, who planned to shock the world, chose to be buried in secret, so far has not been able to verify where he was buried, but within Zhan Yao, it is unanimously recognized that Zhuge Wuhou is actually blessed by a spiritual source in his mind, and has a certain amount of predictive power By.

He knew that he was not a very human being, and he was especially afraid that after his death someone would dig up his grave and dissect his body, discover the secrets in his mind, and be mistaken for the entire Zhuge clan as strangers.

By the way, it also explained why after Marquis Wu, the Zhuge family no longer had any outstanding talents.

He obtained the spiritual source for the day after tomorrow, but he failed to cultivate enough to be strong enough to form a bloodline inheritance.

In addition, although the cultural works of the two worlds are very different, they both have Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio and Dongtian Collection. Chen Biao and Shen Chong even deliberately mentioned these two books.

The fox demon mentioned in "Liao Zhai" and the talking Zhongshan wolf mentioned in "Dong Tian Ji" are considered by ordinary people to be stories of gods and monsters or fictional fables, but Zhan Yao thinks that these should be a small amount of acquired Get the enlightened monster of Yaoyuan.

Finally, with the development of the times, humanity has flourished to a considerable extent in recent decades, but the shackles of divine punishment that originally shrouded the heads of the various inherited clans and monster clans have gradually weakened, and the awakening of psykers and monsters has continued to slow down. increase.

After experiencing the initial short-term chaos, within Huaguo, marked by the birth of Monster Slayer, chaos quickly returned to order.

The founders of the early days of Monster Slaying were all human beings with a heart for the common people, and the monsters to be killed did not only refer to monsters, but also included scum among people who did evil.

In the past ten years or so, more and more good monsters have also chosen to join Monster Slaying. On the one hand, they are looking for a safe and secure place to stay. On the other hand, they can also obtain legal status and gradually integrate into the Human society.

With the continuous efforts of killing the monster, what finally appeared in front of Shen Chong was the harmonious coexistence of people and monsters in the base.
