Krafft's Notes on Anomalies

What is the essence of "spell"?

Kraft had some fragmentary preliminary thoughts on this.

In the past, he believed that all abnormal phenomena were abstract and manifestations of the elusive side of deep chaos. People's pitiful use of them was like picking up shells on the beach, testing on the edge of stability, and their own limitations determined that they could never truly understand it. .

After personally experiencing how a special abnormal phenomenon occurs, my thinking has progressed and deepened.

Just like the early research on biology, due to limited knowledge, we were often confused by various complicated phenomena, dazzled and confused, and finally built a complex system out of thin air.

But in fact, it can be explained from a mechanical perspective, and it can be directly divided into several simple modules:

【Center, Signal, Effector】

Just like the brain commands the arm to lift, it is implemented by three parts: the motor center, peripheral nerves, and muscles.

The effector is the part that achieves specific effects. The currently known celestial debris is the most typical one. It achieves a series of effects through oscillation fluctuations that can only be sensed by the mental body, including the manipulation of biological tissues and level changes.

The specific effect expressed by the effector can be regulated and depends on the signal given by the center.

The mental body plays a central role in it and is the source of regulatory signals. A simple directional dial is a signal, as is the pain of conceptualization.

But there is also a difference between a signal and a signal. Simple directional movement of the moon bones can achieve the most basic level of depth changes, just like artificial electrical stimulation of muscles can also produce basic contraction responses.

To achieve a specific action, the signals required are much more complex. Take the balance reflex as an example. When out of balance, the body will simultaneously command the abdominal and back muscles to adjust the trunk posture, the muscles of the lower limbs to change the force exerted by the legs, the soles of the feet to grip the ground to provide a fulcrum, and the upper limbs to swing to adjust the center of gravity.

All signals are sent out in an instant and involve the whole body. It is very complicated to study in detail. The corresponding muscle groups must contract or relax to the right degree to form a seemingly simple and natural balance response.

Just like the human body's instinct to mobilize muscles to maintain balance when it is out of balance. The creatures created by the moon bones also instinctively want to leave the world and return to where they came from. Complex signal commands are generated in pain, and the simple ability to change deeply is combined into complex layer tearing.

This is an innate and natural reaction for it, similar to the human balance reflex.

But it's different for "pseudo-deep creatures" that are "formed the day after tomorrow." They can't even fully integrate the mental body, body, and lunar body, and stay at the level of "electrical signals trigger muscle contraction."

Just like when you slip, because there is no innate preset signal encoding, you must actively coordinate to send the following instructions: slight contraction of the rectus abdominis and transversus abdominis, contraction of the erector spinae, strong contraction of the quadriceps, and slight contraction of the biceps femoris. diastole...

It is basically impossible for such complex signals to be organized by themselves.

Even Kraft, who has a little bit of insight, is still stuck in the technique of actively releasing restrictions when activating the level shuttle to achieve level chaos within a certain range around the body. The controllability is very low.

He once suspected that the pagans' research on the deep layers had already separated from his own. Otherwise, how could someone who was no longer so clear-headed be able to control the plane to express such a special and directional tearing effect.

Now it seems that things are not that complicated, it is just "copying homework", or passively copying homework.

The active beings at the bottom of the lake naturally have the tendency to spread their own will and attract aggregation. The pain of conceptualization is transmitted to any consciousness that comes into contact with it as the connection is established.

The efficiency is so high and the binding is so close that it is reminiscent of the transfection ability of certain viruses. Through contact, foreign gene encoding can be directly introduced into the host's genome, becoming part of it, and causing the cells to express traits unique to the pathogen.

For ordinary minds, it is impossible to truly understand and effectively carry these things. It is nothing more than an unbearable painful experience and subsequent subtle psychological effects.

As for the "acquired deep creatures" that also have a special spiritual body and are embedded in the moon's bones, the missing signal link among the three elements can be completed.

The logic that follows couldn’t be simpler. Phenomenally speaking, as long as a person who has been implanted in the moon body and whose spiritual body has been deeply changed has frequent or close contact with the beings in the lake, there is a chance that he will obtain similar abilities.

Of course, getting and controlling are completely different things.

Most people should lose the ability to control themselves driven by pain, and impact and tear the world uncontrollably, creating smooth, narrow and messy cutting marks, and finally dislocating and overlapping themselves with the surrounding physical matter in a chaotic level.

Before the end of his life, the devoured consciousness left the most profound impression in his mind - continuous hexagons rising from the lake bed.

The embedded body then extracts the biomass from the remains and constructs a new organism.

There will always be a few people who survive due to luck or individual peculiarities, but the pain is etched in the spirit forever.

They realize that the world is narrow and crowded, and that the celestial bodies hanging high and deep are always calling a part of it there.

As Craft feels now. A sense of claustrophobia and constriction followed every whirling thought.

In the past, these discomforts should fade over time after the mental senses are disconnected, but this time they no longer relieve after a certain point. Just like the tide that originally rose and fell in an orderly manner, it can now reach as low as the ankle.

This required a certain amount of perseverance to organize a complete logical thinking, and it was difficult to deal with the several gazes locked on him.

Although it was not clear, it was known from the standing posture that the rest of the team had already formed two lines in front and behind this side, ready to attack, but due to the width of the ship, they could not form an encirclement.

As for why they did not act immediately, it was probably because they had just been rescued, and the high moral standards of those present who had been taught by the Father for a long time could not save face; on the other hand, they were not sure whether the professor had the ability to repeat it once.

There was no room for evasion in a small area. Once a conflict broke out, it was likely that it would not be able to end. The whole team would be destroyed here, sinking into the lake and merging with that thing.

And Kraft was not much better. He knew very well that even if he was holding a pistol at this distance, it would not be much faster than a sword, not to mention that it was many to one.

Green and the monks were by no means the mob they had faced before. They had the ability and psychological preparation to kill him even if they had to pay a heavy price.

He had to come up with a statement that could convince the other party, or at least temporarily ease the relationship, but it was a bit difficult in his current mental state.

Time was limited, so he sorted out simple ideas based on past experience. To illustrate the safety of something, it must be reflected from several key points: a long history of use, a large number of use cases, and examples that both parties agree on, and it is best to think from the other party's perspective.

Fortunately, his memory was still clear, and he submitted the relevant content in time. Without much review, his chaotic thinking was organized into sentences and blurted out:

"The church did it too."

It seemed that something was wrong, and the atmosphere was slightly eased, but not the kind of ease he thought.

There was an especially sharp look among the crowd, from Father Green, the kind of look that wanted to strangle someone to death but had no way to do it.

This month, I was assigned to a particularly busy department, and I was also writing bids and processing returned papers. I hope it will be better next month.
