Medieval Reiki Revival

Chapter 70 The Self
Ivan gradually increased the spiritual power he transmitted to the [Dream Maker], and these spiritual powers appeared in the illusion in the form of incarnations with the subject's thoughts.

Ordinary people have no way to change their spiritual power transmission efficiency, their avatars all appear in the most basic form.

The base avatar has no singularities.

Except for the increase in the upper limit of the fatigue value, the rest is no different from the real world.

Ivan called this lowest-frequency mental power transfer rate a unit of mental power, and habitually used the Latin noun id (self) as a proper noun.

According to the rules of the illusion, the mental power of an id (self) can become a basic individual incarnation in the illusion.

Id can also be used as a noun to describe the psychological level in psychology. A psychologist in the previous life used vesicles as a metaphor. The living body is originally a vesicle. Due to external stimuli, part of it forms a reflective membrane. This Part of it is the origin of the id.

Ivan believes that the id is a basic element that constitutes the human soul.

There is a saying called I think, therefore I am.

The id is the source of human thinking, and to some extent it constitutes the libidinal side of the personality, whose content—the mental manifestation of libido—is unconscious, partly hereditary, innate, partly repressed ,acquired.

Of course, it is inevitable to use the subconscious to understand.

There are similarities in it.

It's just that the id is part of the personality, and the subconscious belongs to the category of consciousness.

The volunteers themselves did not notice any subtle differences between their spiritual avatars in the fantasy world and their physical bodies in the real world.

The differences can be divided into three aspects: 1. The form of perception is different. There is a difference between the perception of mental power and the visual and auditory observation of the outside world, but the limitations of the basic incarnation prevent them from discovering this.

2. Depending on the difference in consumption, the illusion is not like the material world, and the spiritual incarnation does not need to consume nutrients. As long as there is a continuous supply of spiritual power, the incarnation will not disappear.

3. The difference in self-cognition, the id is rooted in the depths of the personality, and its changes will reveal the deepest and hidden understanding of the self. The id will not lie, and the life force it represents , death drive, or other, lesser-known aspects manipulate the individual's progress.Only those who can break free from their own self will break free from their own destiny.

The corners of Ivan's mouth slowly curled up. He saw an extremely interesting scene in the illusion. The volunteers were already dizzy from the nightmare. A small number of people completely lost the motivation to move freely, and their bodies became vegetative after being impacted.

Almost done experimenting.

Now it's time to do it yourself.

Can't let that guy get the last benefit.

Persephone woke up.

The last picture in her memory was that everyone looked at each other in panic, with the broken pipe wall under their feet.

The bamboo scaffolding fell from the hand and fell under the armpit, leaving a sense of weightlessness at a loss in the end. The darkness and loneliness completely overwhelmed the senses.

Jung wakes up a little earlier than her.

The young man had already regained his composure, looking around vigilantly.

The silver-white luminous body is like the fairy forest in the legend, and the hazy brilliance creates a large area of ​​white fog.

Some rays of light are deflected by the branch-shaped crystals to produce brilliant brilliance. Triangular transparent corals stretch on both sides of the road, with large and small cavities attached to them, blowing whining air from time to time.

Seeing that she finally woke up, Jung ran over to comfort her.

"Are you okay, I just woke up too."

Persephone remained silent. She compared Jung's clothes with those in her memory, raised her brows slightly, and finally said, "After you woke up, you found that we are here. Did you find anything unusual?"

Jung was somewhat pleased to see that the other party did not reject him.

Being in such a fantasy world, I don't know how many invisible dangers there are.

Moreover, Jung was originally sorry for his rudeness, but it was only because certain things were greatly stimulated that this made him very disgusted with Persephone's profession.

Now that he calmed down, it was his own behavior that disgusted him.

Jung sighed: "I know what you mean, but after the pipe wall was broken, I lost consciousness. According to logic, if I fell from such a high place, even if I was lucky enough not to die on the spot, I should have been seriously injured. But you see , we are all fine now."

"Maybe some kind of existence transferred us—like that Doctor Ivan."

Seeing that the other party was a little puzzled, Persephone explained: "I used to suspect that this place was just an illusion, not the real world. Now I dare not continue to insist on this hypothesis, because whether it is the feeling of weightlessness falling from the sky, or those The sense of crisis brought to me by the expressionless mechanical man is very real."

"What's more, our minds are all connected to each other, we can communicate, exchange, analyze, and even the fear on our faces can't be dreamed out, there are too many details."

"I think there's only one explanation for what happened."

"This is the real world."

"It's just not our real world, but another place that is different from the central world."

In some theological theories, the central world is where humans live, and the sky world is where God lives.

Jung understood her.

He gasped, vaguely feeling the existence of some kind of black hand behind the scenes.

"You mean, this is hell!"

"We were sent to hell!!!"

The theological definition of hell refers to the place where human beings are deprived of their souls after death and then punished.

"Divine Comedy" tries to describe a place where the world is punished, and the conception of hell even surpasses the Bible itself.

Among them, at the beginning of "Divine Comedy", the poet Dante lost his way in the forest, and then came to hell under the guidance of the Roman poet Virgil.

How similar is this to the situation where they drank drugs and came to this place in a daze.

Jung's mind was caught in a fierce battle, showing a thoughtful look.

He couldn't believe it, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it.

Looking at his expression, Persephone slowly confided: "That Dr. Ivan is not a simple person. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this until after I joined the experiment. Since he wants us to come to this strange place, There must be an unknown purpose."

"So when most of us are in danger, he will definitely save us."

"To save my experimental product from dying in vain."

Jung realized the meaning of her eyes and opened his mouth: "You don't doubt me, do you?"

"It's just a possibility."

Jung immediately raised his hand and swore: "If I were that bastard doctor, I would be punished by God immediately, and let him get it in front of Satan, and torture him with the flames of hell for 1 years."

The man's expression is very serious, and his movements are a bit like swearing at a wedding.

His eyes were motionless, and there was a silly smell of books in his bones.

The collar of the snow-white shirt is very crisp, but the shirt is full of wrinkles.

Persephone turned his head away, pretending not to know him: "Since Dr. Ivan may be among the group of experimental subjects, it is very likely that what you said just now was heard by him."

listen. hear.

Jung immediately showed an expression that wanted to ask for forgiveness but couldn't.

His face looks like he is crying, but he still has to maintain his demeanor, just like a child who is pulled in his pants but does not forget to use his cuteness to ask for breast milk.

Persephone smiled.

This girl smiles like a lily, the somewhat tough lines between her eyebrows and eyes soften, and her giggling laughter makes people love her from the bottom of her heart.

Anyway, let's go explore around.

Persephone and Jung walked side by side to the coral intersection. Jung apologized to Persephone halfway, but Persephone didn't care at all. In her words, asking for money with my body is just my survival in this world. means only.

For a blind girl who has no father or mother, life is not an interesting thing in the first place.

Everything in the dark world is strange, and sometimes Persephone will be very happy when he touches the mouse's nest in the room.Now that she had eyes, she could make the most of her curiosity.

"I'm really curious what the man's bottom looks like."

Looking at Persephone's innocent eyes, Jung's smile froze.

Jung's face turned liver-colored, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling as if he was being roasted on the fire.
