Steel steam and flame

Cassia shook her head and fell into silence subconsciously, not wanting to stay on such an issue. He suddenly thought of his sister Lilia and his mother, and the memories that had sunk to the bottom of his heart surfaced, still giving him a special and warm feeling. Although life in the small town was full of various material and psychological difficulties, it still became a rare memory.

He knew very well that the capacities of his head and heart seemed infinite, but now they could no longer hold anything more. And he didn't think he would have a chance to be a good father, just like he never thought he was a good leader.

How are Delya, Waters, Hessler and others living at this moment, and how much hidden pressure is there on them? He couldn't imagine it. Or, whether they are still alive or not will be put into question.

"I clearly know that a person's energy and power are extremely limited, and many things require cooperation and the help of others. But in terms of specific actions, I am getting more and more lonely." Cassia knew the reason why she became like this, and If you get involved in a relationship, the benefits will always be far less than the risks.

Cassia sighed heavily at this time, with many emotions. Perkinz immediately stopped smiling. He didn't know why. It was a sentence meant to liven up the atmosphere. However, after hearing the sigh, he immediately returned to his serious state.

There are never many things that can cause emotional fluctuations in a capable surgeon.

"Start the evolution of self-selection? Just like developing surgical capabilities, there is no such thing as 'same', just similar. The data can be used as a reference, but it cannot be imitated or implemented?" Cassia continued the topic just now. After some questions are answered in my head, new questions arise.

As the topic deepened, Perkinz gave himself more time to think, and his speaking speed gradually slowed down.

"You are thinking in the right direction." Perkinz first gave a positive answer, "However, you have misjudged the extent."

"The results of evolution are mostly due to environmental selection. The process is very cruel, and in the end only a handful of individuals remain and are known to us."

"The evolution of the surgeon can also be said to be the process of assimilation and fusion with dragon tissue. The spiritual body plays a powerful role in it, and it is it that promotes evolution. From the beginning of the fourth stage, it is the only one that can have error tolerance. The spirit. In this world, relying on the mental body to deduce and improve surgical projects, you should have done a lot of this kind of thing, right?"

"It seems that I'm not the special one?" Cassia knew what the words meant. He did use his spiritual body to improve various previous abilities and make them more refined.

Perkinz shook his head: "You are a special one. You can use your mental body to deduce. This ability itself is an ability that you only have when approaching the fifth stage. Therefore, you have a huge advantage in error tolerance from the beginning. .This will keep you relatively safe as you go to stage five."

"You will definitely ask why it is 'safe'. Because after the fourth stage, you will treat yourself as an experiment and begin to try to break away from the influence of dragons or giant whales to create a new species. There will be risks in the experiment, and risk means that there will be risks. fail."

"If it fails, at best, there is no possibility of increasing the strength of the fourth or fifth stage. At worst, the spiritual will will generate the implanted dragon tissue, or the remaining consciousness of the dragon will be activated and quickly It grows and devours itself. Even if it is treated, it can only barely save its life."

"Intensification of the withering phenomenon?" Cassia remembered that the biggest source of danger in the operation was the dragon tissue implanted in the body, and it took some time to realize the remaining spiritual consciousness of the dragon.

"It can be understood that way. Before the fourth stage, it was just fighting against the dragon organizations. Relying on the corresponding tranquilizers and injecting them on time, it was almost impossible to have problems. The premise is that you are careful enough in the process of developing abilities and proceed slowly and steadily. Four After the stage, due to the expansion of the spiritual world, the spiritual body becomes complete, and the combination of the two can greatly improve the spirit. And entering the fourth stage is the integration of the spiritual body and the body, and there is a process of spiritual infiltration into the body."

"So during the infiltration process, the remaining spiritual consciousness of the dragons will also receive nutrients and gain undeserved growth. If their growth exceeds a certain limit, they will have a strong desire to continue growing. This desire will accumulate, Until it exceeds the critical point, it explodes in an instant, either causing a withering phenomenon, or the remaining spiritual consciousness of the dragon grows on its own and produces an independent consciousness, invading your spiritual world - occupying and destroying it, and finally destroying it is the determined result."

Cassia thought about helping Xixia expand the spiritual world not long ago, and what happened inadvertently causing the energy light flow network to appear on Xixia's body. At that time, the remaining dragon consciousness entered the spiritual world and turned into a giant dragon, but was killed by Sukariu. Si crushed it to pieces with one claw.

Thinking was followed by ordering and speaking, and he then told Perkins most of the information.

"This is just a symptom. You must pay attention to it." Pekinz's expression showed no surprise. "It's not very common, but it exists in some powerful families. I don't know which families are specific, but in the Holy See, helping The most outstanding successor eliminates the redundant and exposed residual dragon consciousness, which has always existed."

"It can be of some help and reduce the risk of promotion to the fourth stage. But it's just a little bit."

Perkinz later emphasized and gave the most intuitive example: "The residual dragon consciousness still exists. If you think it is gone, it is because your spiritual body is not strong enough to 'see' the remaining parts. This is It’s just like the sensory gap between surgeons and ordinary people.”

"In addition, those secondary experimental subjects an hour or two ago can make you feel friendly just because they used your diluted and cultured blood. The secondary experimental subjects you have are just like several other secondary experimental subjects in the world. This is your illusion. As dragons that have existed since the age of gods and are recognized by all our surgeons as the second type of creature - dragons, do you think the spiritual consciousness they leave behind will be so fragile?"

"Cassia, you are only in the third stage, because some special preparations can make the blood you shed have effects and consciousness that cannot be eradicated. How many times has the blood been diluted, and how many processes have it gone through after dilution? Processing and cultivation? And half of your characteristics come from the dragon, that is, the help of Sukarius. It should be simpler to think about it as a premise. "

"After all, the only existing second-type creatures we know of are dragons and giant whale groups. And whether it is the Houxiang Continent, or the Left-Xiang and Right-Xiang Continents, the ultimate goal of all surgeons is to become the second-type creatures. Their impact on us has always been huge and hidden.”

Because of Pekinz's explanation, Cassia thought of a neglected point: "Do the medicines we usually use, or dragon blood, etc., also have residual consciousness in them?"

"Of course, it's just like your blood."

After listening to Pekinz's words, a general concept formed in Cassia's head. He organized it and repeated it in his own words: "Look at it this way, to summarize the four stages of promotion, the first step is to expand the spiritual world and spread the energy light flow network. I think these two steps are probably to provide spiritual With the supply of energy.”

Seeing Perkinz nodding, Cassia continued: "The second step requires the spiritual body to be integrated with the physical body to reach a state of balance. Can it be explained this way - gradually replace the remaining dragon consciousness in the whole body, half of it is itself, and half of it is... Dragon things become completely your own?"

"It's a good metaphor." Peckinz praised, "That's the process. And there is something added in the second step."

"After the fourth stage, you will face many choices. Just like ordinary people have different heights and different appearances, the ability and evolution of high-level surgeons are based on their will, choosing the most correct characteristic of themselves, and using their mental will to accelerate Evolutionary progress.”

"Before this process begins, what I call 'cheating' the spiritual body out of the mirror is to promote the integration of the physical and spiritual bodies. For example, if the fragments of consciousness remain in the dragon tissue, you need to leave your consciousness in the body. Everywhere creates a basis for choices after entering the four stages.”

"Don't think too much about it these days. It's about not letting the mental body leave various impressions, and then leaving the consciousness left on the body blank. Otherwise, when you use your spiritual will to promote it, these consciousnesses will evolve in ways that shouldn't happen. "

When Perkinz said this, Cassia understood a lot of things - he had known before that the operator would wither and devour the entire body, turning it into a ball of flesh that was nothing. But this lump of meat has a clear purpose, which is to become a complete dragon. will fail simply because the quantity of matter is insufficient.

During the withering period, the guiding thing is the remaining spiritual consciousness of dragons. Regrowing into a dragon is like a steel seal stamped on it.

"This step is to satisfy the various choices after the fourth stage. Blank space can make you safer, and after determining the choice, the efficiency and speed can be far higher than others at the same stage! However, after reaching the high level, every Every step you take is accompanied by danger." Perkins gave Cassia some time to remember and digest.

"The four-stage selection is not only a supplement to abilities, but also an evolution of certain aspects of oneself. Choose a main point, give priority to a higher level, and then gradually affect the things around you, and then drive them. Put it this way, doesn't it feel like very familiar?"

Cassia nodded and understood what Perkins wanted to express: "This main point is like the dragon tissue implanted in our bodies. The starting point of the surgeon is it. However, the dragon tissue affects us in the early stage. The help outweighs the disadvantages, but in the future, it seems that the ratio of help to disadvantages will continue to change and fluctuate. But once the main point of creating a dragon-like organization is revealed, there will be no disadvantages."

"Yes, this is what advanced surgeons do - choose a main point, evolve, feedback, evolve, feedback, and so on."

Perkinz was very satisfied with Cassia's answer. After a short pause, he continued: "My main choice at the beginning was the brain." He pointed to his head, "The function of the brain has indeed evolved, but also due to the evolution With its powerful computing power, several personalities were created unconsciously. Each personality thought that it was the subject and wanted to devour the other. It took a lot of time to solve these troubles."

"Miss Hilary's choice is perception. The Theocracy's internal information refers to this type of similar choice as the 'all-seeing eye'. It is the enhancement of perception - range and capture of details."

"Specific explanation, here is a hypothetical example - she and I observed a person writing a letter from a long distance at the same time. I can only get the result of 'writing a letter', and in addition, I may be able to guess some of the content written. But Sheila Miss Riley was able to completely capture all the actions of writing a letter, and after synchronization, a letter with the same content was copied at roughly the same time."

"In addition, the premise of the hypothesis is that I observe with the strength of the Knight King class, and she observes with the strength of the fifth stage. This is the result of different choices."

"But whether you go to the fourth stage of assimilation or fusion, or choose to evolve at a higher level, there are always dangers. The reason is that the spiritual body is so powerful that the effect of the spiritual will is amazing, but it is somewhere between controllable and uncontrollable. In between. This is not far away for you now, but there is still some time. I still suggest that you first make preparations for getting a new body before thinking about these complicated things. "

,,,,,,

We talked a lot with Perkinz one after another. Most of the time, Cassia just listened quietly and spoke mostly in questions. There was too much information to know, although Perkins told him that much of the information had been accumulated over thousands of years and was not entirely useful now.

But what he needs is to use this information as a guide to form information links. In terms of use, he also understood that he still had to wait for a while.

"We need to return to the Thorny Bird Training Ground to deal with the status matters. Since we can't start the implementation of the plan immediately, it may be the best situation for you and me to maintain the status quo. After that, I will complete the application to go to the small country as soon as possible. There will be It was the area that was first in chaos before the war. Whether it is now or should have disappeared in history, they will probably slowly emerge one by one before the war comes. They are also targets, and the quality will be good."

"Use me as a deterrent to gather these scattered forces?" After knowing Cassia's detailed short-term plan, Perkinz asked back, but he gave the answer himself, "Most of them have entered high-level. At present, this In an era where no one knows the outcome, it seems like a good idea to get together first.”

"At least they will be willing to do many things that are not life-threatening. In the future, there will be a lot of things that can be regarded as trivial matters."

Perkinz nodded and agreed with this approach: "After that, Miss Hilary and I will be waiting for your arrival in Xiaoguo. In addition, I have a private matter - the two ladies in the limo seem to be Interested in the enemies that surrounded you not long ago.”

"This is exactly the last thing I want to say, Mr. Peckinz. Linna and Miss Silla, they are friends I met six years ago or so. But you understand my current state, and Sissia has not yet You know my specific identity, but you have always regarded me as a second personality created by the sacrificial ritual. So, here is something I want to ask you to do, or it can be regarded as something you want to facilitate."

"The trafficking network and the boss behind it were one of the reasons why I temporarily changed my plan and went to a small country."
