People are in Type-Moon, but they practice science

"Don't leave in a hurry, wait a moment." Qin Xuan stopped her.

"...?"

"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet," Qin Xuan stood up, "It's about Luo Ya. I have something to show you, but before that, I want to tell you, don't get excited when you see it, control your emotions."

"Hmm? Okay." Although he didn't quite understand, Elquet agreed anyway.

Qin Xuan was talking about Roya's problem. First of all, Roya's soul had undoubtedly been separated from his body, and his body had become a worthless shell. Secondly, Roya's current form was more like a "spiritual intelligence body" than a soul in the conventional sense.

When Prometheus was performing the transcription operation according to Qin Xuan's instructions, it performed a similar "logical formatting" action. In short, Roya's memory data was stored in specific partitions according to importance and type of information. Which ones were "magic theory research", which ones were "experimental processes", which ones were "credible conclusions", etc. were all sorted and stored in different categories.

Even memories that Prometheus judged to be of low value were not deleted, but kept intact. As for whether Roya's "consciousness" and "personality" would be affected by this, this was a secondary matter.

So the result was that when Qin Xuan obtained the information he wanted, he discovered that Luo Ya's soul had become a "vegetable" state.

So, is this person dead or not?

Qin Xuan only took a quick look at Roja's infinite reincarnation technique, but did not find any settings that would determine whether the technique would be triggered in this situation.

If possible, Qin Xuan hopes that Elquet will judge whether this guy is dead or not. If he is dead, it means that Luo Ya has been reincarnated again at the moment of the "transcription" operation. If not... am I blocking his bug?

Qin Xuan led Elquet all the way to the basement. During the walk, he held Elquet's hand tightly, fearing that Miss Baiji would touch something she shouldn't touch, as if he was an adult holding the hand of a kindergarten child while shopping.

Elquet didn't try to run around again. After she failed to break free from Qin Xuan's hand the first time, she didn't try to exert any more force. Instead, she stared at Qin Xuan who was leading the way in front of her.

This human's strength is so great, it's completely at the level of a fantasy species. Elquet's attention has shifted to him, and she just looks at this boy who is almost a fraction of her age with curiosity.

"It's here." Qin Xuan said.

After the two entered a door, it seemed as if the space changed and they came to a slightly empty sealing room. At the end of their vision, a body that Elquet hated so much was lying there.

"Roya——!!"

Elquet instantly lost his composure, broke free from Qin Xuan's hand and rushed over, slashing with his claws, "Bang!"

"Roya" was smashed to pieces at the first moment, but what was worse was that the whole house was hit by this blow. The brute force directly penetrated the foundation and load-bearing structure. The three-story building collapsed directly, and the walls and floors fell down like falling building blocks. This was undoubtedly a big trouble for ordinary magicians, but the two inside were obviously not normal people.

With one punch, he blew away the last piece of ceiling that was falling from above his head, and then Qin Xuan walked to Elquet's side.

Elquet was still in the position of slashing people. She seemed to be stunned. The "Roya" in front of her had been crushed to pieces by the violence. It seemed that something was wrong, but it was indeed the real Roya...

"Have you calmed down yet?"

"Ugh...!" Elquet immediately realized that he had just promised the other person to stay calm. Oops, oh no. According to the social principles of the human world, when apologizing, one should...

"——No need to apologize."

Qin Xuan's words surprised Elquet a little, "Um, are you angry? Actually, I can..."

"Snapped!"

Qin Xuan snapped his fingers, and in an instant, the concrete building debris that were scattered around and piled into small hills turned into blue spirit particles, then shattered and dissipated like mist.

Without the obstruction, the gray and hazy world that could be seen to the end at a glance - the scene of the lepton space was finally revealed.

"Fortunately, I made preparations in advance and brought you to the Spiritual Space first."

Qin Xuan saw Elquet's "looks like fun" expression, and couldn't help but doubt the education level of this Bai Ji. He called out to the empty direction next to him, "No. 17, recover."

Countless tangible spirit particles gathered together at a very fast speed, sealing off the surrounding space and re-forming walls, doors, windows, floors, and houses...

"Wow!" Elquet looked like she wanted to try it out, but then Qin Xuan grabbed her hand that was about to do something naughty.

"It is forbidden to destroy the spiritual creations at will! Magic power is not free!"

"Well... okay." The curious baby's head drooped instantly.

Qin Xuan inexplicably felt like he was dealing with a pet...

"Okay, let's get back to business," Qin Xuan snapped his fingers and materialized the "Roya" spirit body again. After confirming that Elquet remained stable, he continued to explain, "This is what happened. A few years ago, I met a man named Tono Shiki in a place called Zongye City..."

When it comes to this kind of thing, Elquet finally becomes serious and behaves in a manner consistent with the True Ancestor royal family.

"...In short, the Roya soul I have here is intact, but I can't be sure whether the Roya body you mentioned is inside. So I decided to show it to you in the end."

Elquet looked a little confused, "The power was not restored..."

"Ok?"

"That's why Roya became a Dead Apostle in the first place," Elquet explained briefly, "Only when Roya is truly dead, the power will return."

"In this soul body?"

“I can feel it, but I can’t seem to get it…”

"——Because there is something called data backup."

Elquite looked at Aqua, "Huh? What is that?"

------

Ryougi Shiki felt inexplicably unhappy.

After she rushed to Wujo Kirie's ward, she negotiated with the woman lying on the bed and successfully "killed" her illness.

Because after the other party realized that Ryougi Shiki actually represented Qin Xuan, his attitude immediately became submissive, as if he had had contact with Qin Xuan before. After asking a few more questions, the answer he got was "I saw the same person flying in the sky above the building one day."

Of course, this is still not the real reason why Ryougi Shiki felt unhappy.

At this time, on a bench near the Fuyuki City Station, Ryougi Shiki and Mujo Kirie were leaning on one side of the bench, the two sitting far apart. But their postures were very different. Ryougi Shiki leaned on the back of the chair with one hand next to the other, looking very comfortable, while Mujo Kirie, who had been bedridden for many years and had poor physical strength, was so exhausted when she went to the station for the first time. When she left the Fuyuki City Station, she almost had to rely on Ryougi Shiki to support her all the way.

Ryougi Shiki really couldn't stand it anymore. She had only been discharged from the hospital a few days ago, and it didn't need to be like this. She should find a place to rest first.

"I say," Ryougi Shiki said after an awkward silence, "Can't you fly? Like that you." She was referring to the "doppelganger" of Mujo Kirie that could float.

"Ha...ha...no, it won't work..." Mujo Kirie was still panting. Her doppelganger was able to float because of her desire. As for asking the doppelganger to lift her up, it was even worse because she would be the one who suffered.

Oh, that's useless.

Ryougi Shiki didn't quite understand what Qin Xuan saw in this woman.

Chapter 28 Multiple Existence and Collective Consciousness

Seeing that Mujo Kirie was extremely tired and even looked like she was lying there dying, Ryougi Shiki was too lazy to wait and decided to call for help directly.

"Hello?" Ryougi Shiki took out the personal terminal given to her by Qin Xuan.

"Hello, Miss Ryougi Shiki." The suspended figure of No. 17 appeared in front of them without warning, scaring Mujo Kirie who was standing beside him.

"Do you really have surveillance cameras throughout the city?" Ryougi Shiki looked at No. 17's appearance and asked, "Won't you attract the attention of the general public?"

"Don't worry, ordinary people can't observe this body." After No. 17 finished answering, he turned to Wu Tiao Wuhui who was almost lying on the bench on the other side and said, "Question: Do you need help?"

"Well, there was a small accident in his (Qin Xuan) mission. Can you help to 'transport' the target back?"

What does “shipping” mean…?

Wujo Kirie had a bad feeling, but unfortunately it was too late for her to protest.

"Arrange delivery service immediately."

As soon as No. 17 finished speaking, two figures - Ye Ye and Iluli appeared from nowhere.

As mentioned before, as long as they are in the territory of Fuyuki City, Qin Xuan can achieve the teleportation of objects based on the ground vein node network. However, since the process of this ground vein teleportation will produce a large spatial pulling effect, the human body is generally unable to withstand it. However, the puppets are different. As long as the quality of the parts and materials is in place, zero-burden teleportation can be achieved. So Qin Xuan slightly modified the teleportation technique and installed it on them.

So theoretically, Yaya and Iruri can appear anywhere in Fuyuki City at any time.

"Hey - let's leave the task to the beautiful and powerful Lady Yaya!"

"Iluri follows instructions."

After confirming the target, Iluli prepared to carry Wu Tiao Wuhui on the left and right with Ye Ye, and support her all the way home. However, Iluli soon discovered that Ye Ye's idea was different from hers - because Ye Ye directly carried Wu Tiao Wuhui on his back by himself.

"Such a simple task only requires one person! Ye Ye will definitely complete it in the fastest and best way!" Ye Ye said something that made no sense to Iluli.

"Ah... Can I..." Wujo Wuhui's uneasy premonition became stronger and stronger. She wanted to ask if they could put me down. She didn't want this "transportation" service anymore.

"boom--!"

As soon as Ye Ye stepped on the ground, the floor cracked and the bench was blown away because it was too close. Ye Ye was already carrying Wu Tiao Wuhui on his back and rushing into the air like a cannonball. This time, Ryougi Shiki reacted in time and jumped far away in advance. The place was naturally a mess, with only Iruri, who was smiling very "elegantly", left.

Ryougi Shiki observed Iruri's expression, then looked ahead, at Ye Ye who had no regard for Mujo Kirie's physical condition at all and left them far behind.

It's obvious that someone acted on their own and disobeyed is going to be in trouble again. I won't say who it is.

------

Finally, when Ryougi Shiki walked to the Qin family slowly, he saw Ye Ye hanging upside down in the air in the hall, and the upper end of the rope seemed to be tied to the corridor on the second floor.

Next to Ye Ye, there stood a blonde woman whom she didn't know. She was holding something similar to a cat toy in her hand and was poking at Ye Ye. Although she looked very mature, her behavior was very childish.

Moreover, Ryougi Shiki's intuition told her that the woman... was probably not human.

"Ok?"

Elquet turned around and saw the back of a black-haired woman in a red vest. Elquet was holding a cat toy in his hand and poking Yeye's red face. It was unclear whether it was because of Elquet's poking or because of embarrassment.

"Damned vixen..." Ye Ye decided to use a big move. First, he pretended not to react to Elquet's teasing, and then when she was already having fun -

Ye Ye, who had been motionless, suddenly opened her mouth and bit. She even accelerated the activation of the magic circuit in her body. The biting action almost became an afterimage. In the blink of an eye, she almost bit off Elquet's hand...

"Hehehe, I can't bite it!" Elqui's special skills were superior and he retracted his hand at a faster speed.

"Bang!" The crisp sound of biting into the air echoed in the empty hall, followed by the faint whimpering sound of a defeated dog every night.

"..."

Ryougi Shiki quickened her pace and quickly moved away from these two clowns.

After passing through a corridor, the noise in the hall could no longer be heard. She turned a corner and came to the door of the study, but found that the door was half open and there was no one inside.

------

"It was found that the bones were slightly displaced, and the internal organs also had varying degrees of damage. No wounds were found in the muscles and skin."

After reading the diagnosis, Qin Xuan immediately arranged a treatment for Wu Tiao Wuhui. When Ye Ye carried her back, he took the quality of ordinary people into consideration and used "Vajra Power" to protect her, but humans and dolls cannot be generalized.

The "Ye Ye Style" dash is not similar to a high-speed train. Her landing and starting process involves rapid switching between stillness and top speed. The tearing sensation produced is estimated to be second only to earth vein transmission.

"I'm so sorry. I helped you solve your terminal illness, but now you have another injury," Qin Xuan said to Wu Tiao Wuhui who was floating beside him.

Since the original body needed treatment, Wujo Kirie used her doppelganger to negotiate. Of course, the doppelganger was still controlled by the original body's consciousness.

"It doesn't matter. After all, everyone has good intentions." After all, they helped solve a terminal illness, and it's not an exaggeration to say that they extended a life. Even if there were some mistakes in the middle, Wujo Wuhui is still very grateful for the current result.

Then we talked about the ability of "doppelganger".

"About this... do you know someone named Araya Soren?"

But when the words came out, Wu Tiao Wuhui felt that the atmosphere in the air had changed.

After a moment of silence, Qin Xuan said, "Yes, I do. As for the relationship between him and me... you just need to know that he will never appear again."

Wujo Kirie realized what was going on: "...Okay."

"There's nothing to be nervous about. I don't care about that person." Qin Xuan felt that Wu Tiao Wu Hui had been in a closed environment for a long time, so she was too sensitive to other people's words. "Let's get back to the topic. You said that the 'duplicate' was used to fly in place of 'yourself' based on desire, but the facts are somewhat different from your understanding."

"Eh?"

"Your doppelganger cannot replace you. She is just as important as you."

Qin Xuan glanced at Wu Tiao and saw his face turn red. Are you making random assumptions?

"I'd like to clarify that both your doppelganger and you essentially have only one consciousness, which is the so-called 'cluster consciousness'. This may not sound quite right, but if you change the two yous to two thousand yous, or even twenty thousand yous, you'll understand.

"One of the foundations of human society is the division of labor. Human socialization is the process by which individual 'natural persons' enter the collective and form a division of labor through internalized norms. Group consciousness is the overall consciousness of the 'Wu Tiao Wu Hui Group' society. All your sub-bodies are the carriers of completing the division of labor according to needs and rules.

"The body that flies because it longs to be free of heaviness, the body that distorts its vision because it longs for pain, the body that determines the future because it longs to change its fate...

"You know what? You can be anyone and they will all be your siblings."

Chapter 29 "Witch Network"

Wu Tiao Wu Hui's treatment process was over at this time. She even went through the "divine sound" experiment that was required of people with special abilities. Qin Xuan took her to a special room on the first floor of the basement. He turned around and looked at Wu Tiao Wu Hui and her doppelganger who were following behind him, "Come on."

Qin Xuan took the hands of the two Wu Tiao Wuhui at the same time. The next moment, the surrounding scene changed. The various environments in the basement disappeared, and a new world extended from under his feet and above his head, covering his vision - the lepton space had already unfolded.

Without waiting for Qin Xuan to explain, Wu Tiao Wuhui on the side had already automatically understood the wonders of the new world. The corners of her mouth curled up, and her double body rose along the edge of the empty building all the way to the top of the building, but it did not stop, as if it was going to fly to the top of the sky.

"The sky there is not infinitely high. It will reach the top in a moment at most."
