I'm not a cyberpsycho

Demon-sealing ninjas are ninjas who are responsible for sealing magic and sealing demons. They are also ninjas who have sealed the 'power of demons' themselves.

This is a special force established by the first Lord Oda. It is a direct ninja army established by selecting elites from the indigenous people. It is used to hunt down the 'devils from other worlds', the 'devils' hidden in the world, and recover the 'devils' from other worlds. Magic props'. There are some business overlaps with Monsters Inc. As for the establishment of the Royal Court to monitor the interior, it is a side job after most of the 'demons' in this plane are sealed.

Yes, this was a specialized force established by Gao Tianyuan, the first-generation time traveler, to defeat the legion and hunt down the elves. Although just like the history of fantasy, Gao Tianyuan can directly use equipment to paralyze the "magic elves/nanobots" within the area, and then mobilize an army to suppress elf villages like Hot Spring Village with firepower.

But the world of 0791, after all, used to be a colony of the Legion. There are not only a few elven villages here, but also a lot of experimental subjects, modified people, and synthetic beasts. There are also all kinds of messy 'magic settings' and 'magic seals'.

After all, the fleet-level battle was already over. The first-generation Oda only brought a cruiser to pursue the remnants, and did not have more specialized scientific research equipment. It was impossible to scan the entire earth and wipe out all the hidden remnants of the legion. And he He is not willing to level all the mushrooms in the world he conquered.

So the Oda family established a demon-sealed ninja force based on the local indigenous ninjas, which was responsible for investigating and assassinating the "legion of demons". If a stronghold where a large number of demons gathered was found, they would send out troops to encircle and suppress it, or directly attack with cruisers.

But killing is not enough, because this world has been deeply transformed and is filled with "magic elves" spread by the legion. There are already rules for "magic". In this way, whenever the legion comes back, it may directly take back the entire world, so it needs to be "sealed" magic'.

To put it simply, 'Legion's Magic Elf' refers to the nano-robots produced by the Legion, similar to what 'Qi' is to monks and battery fuel is to cycling vehicles. It is not only used to use magic, but is also produced by the Legion. Elves, demons, and monsters operate at the core of existence.

Therefore, as long as the 'magic elves' are sealed, the elves, demons, dragons and the like will naturally be rendered harmless and can be shot away with machine guns and cannons.

As for the 'Demon Sealing Seal', or the so-called 'curse seal that seals the power of the Demon God', it is one of the specific custody measures of the Security Committee for the 'Legion Magic Elves'.

In fact, the principle is very simple. For the plane where the Legion ruins exist, the first wave of pests in the fleet will be exterminated. After cleaning the ground, the Scientific Ethics Committee will select the remaining indigenous test subjects for gene editing and inject deceptive nanoworms into them. The 'legion elves' mistakenly believed that these people were artificial elves with 'legion authority', so they stored them in the human body for safekeeping.

It's just that in order to fight against the remnants of the local legion, these ninjas of the Oda family took an extra step. Not only the seal, but also the ability to activate it again under specific editing instructions. Like the elves, they can unseal the magic seal and gain the ability to cast and use magic.

And because magic elves develop unique codes based on genetic inheritance, the ninja family can also rely on blood to pass down the family's demon-sealing seal from generation to generation, and keep these 'magic elves' for the Oda clan. In return, they can be properly developed and utilized. 'Power of the Demon God', gain superhuman strength and become a loyal watchdog.

This is what is called a ninja.

However, since the legion has been systematically destroyed and a large amount of legion technology has been lost, these 'nano magic elves' can no longer be replenished. Moreover, although the principles of the elves of the Legion and the ninjas of Takamagahara are the same, their genes are still obviously different, and the effects of magic and ninjutsu are also very different. They cannot exert their full power, and may also be similar to cyberpsychosis. Risk of out-of-control 'ghosting' or 'demonization' due to overuse.

In addition, these demon-sealed ninjas can also be regarded as modified humans mixed with elven genes. They are special products born under the policy of border suppression. They are fifth-level modified humans, similar to training indigenous creatures to serve as cannon fodder and mercenary battles. The nature of the beast.

With the complete suppression of 0791 and the listing of Takamagahara, this use of legion technology to transform soldiers was naturally banned by the Safety Committee, and the production of new demon-sealed ninjas was no longer allowed.

However, the previous Demon-Sealed Ninja, Koga and Iga families still remained. After all, after some families die, or a demon-sealing ninja dies unexpectedly, in order to prevent the 'magic spirits' from spreading, the demon-sealing seal in the body needs to be inherited by their descendants. This 'demon-sealing ritual' is the so-called genin test.

Although the ninja students selected by Wucha have gone through various professional trainings, only by truly obtaining their own 'Demon Sealing Seal' can they be qualified to learn ninjutsu and use ninjutsu, and become official Demon Sealing Genin.

Those elites who can master their own 'Demon Sealing Seal' and 'Demon Power' proficiently, and have rich mission experience, after passing the chunin trial, can go to the Demon Sealing Clan, Koga Twenty-One, Study in a place like Iga 48-in, and learn advanced ninjutsu, or in other words, magic obtained from ancient elves. Master special skills such as 'water escape, fire escape, and wind escape' and become the so-called ninja of Koga and Iga.

On the basis of the 'Demon Sealing Seal' and the 'Five Elements Ninja Technique', he has gone through hundreds of battles and made many military exploits, and has been recommended by the Ninja Head. After passing the examination of the imperial court and being recognized by the Oda clan, he can Becoming a Jōnin of the Demon Sealing Sect, and receiving the 'Yin and Yang Jutsu' given by the Oda clan, Takamagahara secretly researched 'Ninja Techniques' and 'Magic Spirits' over the years, and developed secret Ninja Techniques.

However, with the defeat of Takamagahara, the imperial clan was disbanded, and at the request of the Security Committee, all demon-sealed ninjas were ordered to perform the 'nindo seal' and were prohibited from unsealing the ninja seal.

On the one hand, this also symbolizes 'laying down arms and truce', on the other hand, it also worries that the 'Demon Sealing Seal' and 'Magic Elves' will be captured by the legion or other heavenly companies.

From the current situation in which the Tokugawa family is still fighting to the death, it can be seen that these ninjas have indeed taken the initiative to seal the ceasefire, but they are not really completely incapable of fighting.

Now that the demon-sealed clan is dead, the Koga party, with the coordination of Goche Academy, did not participate in the war. They only relied on a part of the Iga ninja army loyal to Tokugawa to unseal the 'demonic seal' and resisted the Night City. Despite the siege, they still had enough energy to inflict heavy casualties on the Hashiba family's army, which shows how powerful these ninjutsu killers are.

The cool thing about Kotaro is that it is rumored that he not only killed hundreds of people and slaughtered all the "Demon Sealing Clan", he also inherited the "Demon Sealing Seal" of the entire family and absorbed all the "magic power". Use it for yourself!

Although he is still young and is just a 'genius of the Demon Sealing Family', he may not necessarily know many secrets of Ninja techniques, but with so many 'magic elves' at his disposal, he can just use 'Fire Escape' at random! The technique of small fireball! ’ It’s also the kind of thing that can create mushroom clouds and is close to invincible. But……

"But why didn't you just kill him when you caught him? You shouldn't have found those 'demonic powers', or 'magic elves' in him, right? So you've been keeping him in prison, right?"

Li Pan understood. Is this what Kotaro said about "the equipment that was lost after the demise of the Demon Sealing Family"? Is this kid also pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger? However, he is still more inclined to believe that Kotaro is a rookie who is being plotted by someone with serious intentions...

Shiranui Kiriko nodded,

"I have experienced that the company's filing cabinets can remove the 'Demon Seal', but it will not eliminate the 'magic' itself. Perhaps the Demon-Sealing Young Master has used secret methods to seal the demon's power in other special places in advance.

Because of the war, a large number of ninjas died on the battlefield, in places like the "Fountain of Youth". There are some ‘Devil-Sealing Seals’ that no one can inherit for the time being.

And once the family heir dies, no one is qualified to seal these 'powers of the demonic gods'. As the seals fail, they may gradually lose control and give birth to new demonic alien gods. "

"Can a mere nanobot do that? How did the legion get wiped out?"

Li Pan didn't believe it.

Shiranui Kiriko said,

"Patch, recombine and evolve, this is the core logic of the editor inside those nanobugs. This technology is said to be another human development route different from QVN before the Earth 0 Civil War. Like AI, it is too dangerous and has been banned by scientific ethics. The council ordered it sealed and development prohibited.

Some people say that the Legion was taken advantage of by the company because it was counterattacked by too many dangerous technologies and lost a lot of combat power. Therefore, the safety committee is very cautious about these technologies.

In the history of our demon-sealed people, there are often precedents of ghosts and gods who excessively pursued power, absorbed too much magic power, and finally became unable to suppress it and lost control. They mutated and evolved uncontrollably, and completely became the carriers of demons.

Therefore, disobeying the order of the Sealed Ninja and pursuing the power of the Demon God was considered a prelude to becoming a demon and violated the taboo of the Sealed Ninja. This is why Asahime banished me.

But in fact, I am very aware of the danger of the power of the devil, and I have no such intention. I have passed on the inheritance of the Shiranui family to Ogikaze. I only tried to seal the "Fountain of Youth" for the sake of the genin exam and to put an end to my dead companions. Demon God, and never succeeded.

Now I only have the 'Water Release Seal' I obtained when I was a genin.

But Kotaro's situation is different. If he really hides a large amount of magic power from the Sealed Demon Clan, he may lose control at any time and even turn into a murderous maniac. And provoking a war between Night City and Takamagahara is also beneficial to his revenge. After all, when he was imprisoned in the first place, all the ninja heads of Koga and Iga recognized it and acted together.

It is very likely that he is lurking in the dark, trying to provoke a ninja war at all costs..."

Li Pan understood the underlying meaning of her words.

"Do you suspect that Kotaro was responsible for Jin Yaohui's case? But he went to the academy to lurk after the rail-jumping incident."

Shiranui Kiriko shook his head,

"There is no evidence that he did not do it. Maybe this is all a disguise he designed deliberately? Maybe he wanted to take the opportunity to avoid your attention and digest the hidden power of the devil. Maybe he is in Jinyao Academy As for cultivation, is there any safer place in the Night City than there?"

Well, this makes sense. Anyway, whether it is Kotaro or the murderer, the answer can only be found after searching inside Jinyao Women's College.

Li Pan didn't stop her, it was useless. Shiranui Kiriko didn't owe money, and she didn't want to look for her son. Now that she had the chance, she would definitely try to sneak into Jinyao Academy to investigate.

Anyway, there were three commissions, and he had to find Kotaro, so Li Pan contacted Uncle Chen and suggested sending Wuzi to sneak into the academy to cooperate with the monster investigation.

With the ability shown in this on-site consultation, Uncle Chen thought about it and agreed to cooperate. After all, it was related to the small circle within the women's college, such as the Green Field Student Union, and it was more convenient for professional people like Kiriko Shiranui to assist. And as a female ninja, she can be considered close to people in Jin Yaohui's circle, so as not to cause excessive tension on all parties at this juncture.

Unlike Li Pan, when he first went to check out the spot, even when he walked around the subway station twice, the automatic machine gun's aim followed him...

In short, this resulted in a bunch of tasks including the commission from the three offices, the investigation of the monster, and the search for Kotaro, all given to Kiriko Shiranui.

Li Pan can fish openly again!

Alas, who cares about internal fighting, ninjas, suicides, demon sealing, and legions! !

Killing monsters and killing monsters is just like going to work, there is no end to it.

Make money first!

The Security Bureau must be very busy with Jin Yaohui's affairs now! No one should care about him anymore.

good! Go about your daily routine! He earns more than 100,000 yuan every day, accumulates a little, and becomes rich through hard work!

Then Li Pan's daily plan was interrupted by a communication.

It's Nana Toyama.

"Hey Li, are you off work? Is it convenient now?"

"Oh Nana, don't you go to work? Do you want to drink together?"

"Actually, a friend of mine who I share a house with is in some trouble now, and even I have been blocked by violent groups. After thinking about it, among the people I know in the Night City, you are probably the only one who can help..."

"Oh? A violent group? How violent? How many people were killed?"

"That's not true... Oh? Have you really killed them? Oh... I heard that a dozen people were forced to jump off the building by them..."

"Wow, there are so many dozen. What about yesterday?"

"Yesterday...there was too much nonsense, come here quickly!"

Of course Nana had to help when she was in trouble, but Li Pan didn't quite understand it. A mere violent group, and Nana Toyama's personality changed, so he could deal with it, right? As an important asset of the fleet, as long as the prosthetic body is activated, ordinary people are no match for her.

But it’s all about bounties anyway, and violent groups are the same everywhere.

So Li Pan went directly to the commuting area and rushed to the coordinates of Nana's new apartment.

Sure enough, there was a man blocking the door. But what's going on with these guys?

Although all of them look like gangsters, they look like gangsters on the road, but the strange thing is that there is no criminal record in the NCPA system, not to mention killing, there is no record of fighting, let alone To put it simply, naming members of violent groups like the Dongcheng Society is not worth a penny.

What are you doing...

"Thank you..."

Since there was no profit to be made, Li Pan didn't want to kill anyone, so he went directly to Nana's apartment.

A gangster deliberately blocked the middle of the corridor and bumped into Li Pan with one shoulder.

Boom! There was a muffled sound, and the gangster was knocked upside down by Li Pan and fell over.

"Sorry, please give way, please give way, thank you."

"Hey, bastard! You injured us! Pay the medical bills!"

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze!"

"Fuck this guy! It's like a wall!"

Li Pan didn't even bother to look at them, he bumped into them all the way, sending everyone flying. The six people huddled together and pushed away from the door, knocking on the door.

"Nana, let's go and have a drink."

"You bastard! You look down on us, you bastards!"

"That person named Nana is your son! Then pay for it, you son of a bitch!"

"..."

Li Pan couldn't help but frown. This was the first time he saw such a weak-sighted gangster, so he pulled out his pistol.

"What are you doing! You're trying to scare people with a big gun! Come on! Shoot if you dare!"

"boom!"

"Ouch, I really shot it!"

"Ah, ah, murder!"

"Call the police! Call the police! You're done! Pay compensation!"

"..."

Seeing these guys who were frightened by the sudden shot and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, but still did not run away, but instead called the police one by one, Li Pan knew what was going on.

These guys are not gangsters, they are professional debt collectors.

These people are more troublesome than gangsters. Even if they call the police, they will not be deported by the NCPA, because in theory, they are indeed doing legal work.

Well, after all, this is an era of debt per capita. Those who owe debts will naturally have debt collectors. Although large companies will secretly collude with the underworld, after all, it is legal debts, and it is best to recover legal cash. It's better to be polite first and then fight. There's no need to involve those underworld gangsters who have no lower limit for everything.

Not all companies have their own security forces and outsourced mercenary teams, so debt contractors have an opportunity to appear. They provide debt collection and rent collection services, and some also purchase bad debts and old debts from companies at low prices, which is reasonable and legal. Become a creditor and then send people to collect debts. As long as you successfully receive a payment, you will earn a kickback.

It's true that they are not breaking the law, so they chase you shamelessly. Anyway, they just don't block you every day and force you to pay back the money. Now that NCPA is here, they are not the ones breaking the law. The ones who break the contract are those who fail to pay back the money they owe, right?

In short, the purpose is to make it impossible for you to live a normal life if you don't pay back the money.

Moreover, although these employees responsible for debt collection all have a rude face, they must be legal citizens with clean wealth in the system and protected by the security system.

After all, debt collection is an obviously high-risk profession. If the target is ordinary people, it's okay. If you push the person hard, you'll be beaten at most. But if the target is a company and has some illegal record, they can record it and directly exercise the right of self-defense. , even if I draw a gun and shoot you to death, I don’t even need to keep a file. It is common for people to disappear inexplicably or be thrown from upstairs.

So it's useless to beat these debt collectors away and come back another day. They specialize in this. Can you beat them? If he accidentally beats someone to death, he will be wanted by the security system.

Li Pan pursed his lips and put away the gun.

At this time, the apartment door opened, and Nana Toyama came out to take a look, holding an iron pot.

"What, Nana, you took out a loan shark?"

Nana smiled bitterly, "It's not me..."

"I, I will pay it back! Am I not making money through live streaming? I will have profits in three months! So please give me some grace!"

Another girl emerged from behind Nana, shorter than Nana, wearing bunny pajamas, her hair dyed pink, and a ball jumping around at her feet. She should be a pet robot with a camera.

"Ogawa Nana! You have been in default for three months, and there is no guarantee from the company! The next settlement date is coming soon! If you don't pay off today! Just vacate the apartment to pay off the debt!"

Another Nana...
