"If I were to describe the progress of human civilization." Zach was using his own immortality to comment on the history of mankind, "it would be the way information is stored and transmitted." Listen to Zach's argument, "In the beginning it was language, a single individual The stored information can be translated into words and passed on to another person.”
When it comes to evaluating history based on the span of eternal existence, Frank is more suitable than Zach. He gave a more 'alien' explanation, "With humans as subjects, the soul imprints (experiences) carried in the soul are regarded as memories. Language spreads~"
Zach nodded, "Then there are words. One-on-one language has become words that can be recorded. The spread does not need the person who speaks the language, only the things that record the words." Stone tablets, tortoise shells, bamboo pieces , paper. Let's look back at our history together.
Frank’s explanation, “The dissemination of information increases exponentially~”
"Index." Zach corrected.
"What's that? A faster way to increase than multiplication?"
"Yes, it's exponential growth."
Stop complaining about the two vampires' knowledge and let's concentrate.
"Words are not enough, and not everything can be described and transmitted by words. So humans have ways to store and spread sounds and images."
"Oh, Eli Toledo, whom the Sabbat brought to replace you, used music to spread the word to strengthen his clan~"
"That's it. As for images, from the era of realism art that you have experienced, to the camera technology that you missed, to the beginning of entertainment-style image delivery like music, television, movies..." A created message is composed of text, music, The pictures are cleverly woven and displayed in front of a large number of humans regardless of distance and time. This is our current civilization.
This is also the reason why Frank was very uncomfortable with this era at first. He received too much information from human blood, which made him doubt the world.
This should be a common problem for the clan. Remember the Zmich clan once lamented the newspaper at the Newton station gate. Human beings in modern civilization receive information too simply.
"When publicly stored and disseminated information has become common sense in this era, more precise targeted information pointing has emerged." Zach said about Revro's advantage now, "It's like the monitoring of security companies. This It is not information that is disseminated to the public. It is only used as important evidence to dominate the outcome of the incident after the incident. The storage and transmission of this kind of information are strictly controlled."
Frank's eyes were already shining, "And Revro is the perfect person to control the storage and transmission of this sensitive information~Oh Zach~" It felt like Frank was about to kiss Zach, "Refro is going to take off, in this era ~Revero should have you locked up~"
That's right. Isn't the security company the one Zach pointed out to Revro
Zach only reminded Frank, "When Revro's advantages in this era are fully realized. How to control Revro is your problem." Frank's purpose is to take over the Sabbat, isn't it? In terms of his understanding of the times and his ability to control the Sabbat at this stage, besides having the aura of his ancestor, does Frank have any advantages
After thinking about it, Frank said, "Haha, don't I still have you~"
After satisfying Frank's desire to appreciate Revro's rise, it is time to wait for the return of Sissi who is going to school. The conversation between the two clan ancestors returned to the topic of the vampire's identity being revealed by humans at a glance.
The only change is that Zach is no longer prepared to hold Sissy accountable. Just like when he asked Sissy before she went to school, Zach asked for a solution.
As a result, the content of the conversation began to develop in two directions. One was that Sissi cooperated and provided a solution, and the crisis of the Toledo clan being recognized by humans was lifted.
Now that the crisis is over, it's time to discuss the usefulness of the vampire's ultimate reward.
Frank, "Have you discovered some images..." Xiangcier, "Do you have any special abilities?"
Zach remembered that he hadn't told Frank about his video complaints and the 'interesting things' he hadn't seen in four centuries. said.
"What? You... No, Toledo's image in this world has its own consciousness?!"
"Yes, not just in mirrors, water, or anything that can reflect an image. Even in stored images." Zach didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. "The image of Louise in the video , asked me to include my images in Grande’s, so that she could be in the same frame as me.”
Frank is worthy of being a third party, able to provide a new perspective, "Oh my God! Wait, so it's not completely self-aware! Your image is complaining that it hasn't seen you in four centuries, and it doesn't adapt to your way of doing things. At the same time, Louise’s image requires the same frame as you! So they are still you and Louise! Except that they are behind the screen, they express your identity and character in this world!”
Zach blinked, "You... are right." Zach blinked, "I used to think that the image was Zagar who only existed in the plane." I hope everyone has not forgotten this Zagar who was given life by the God of the Republic. "But I keep telling Zagel that we may share the same way of doing things because of the process in which he was created, but we are different people, and our experiences have changed over the course of this century. We are no longer The same person. And my image..." Zach thought about the choice of words, "Maybe it's the other way around. We are the same person, but I am in this world, and he is in a plane created by humans."
"Just like what you just said about the development of human civilization!" Frank was a little excited, because this will be connected to what he once concluded - having images is to show your true self to the world. This kind of behavior shows sincerity to the world. You will receive preferential treatment from this world. "The planes on which your images are located are photos and screens created by human civilization to store and transmit information!!"
Are you aware of Frank's excitement? "I take back what I just said about Revero taking off in this era! It's you who took off! Zachary Toledo!"
A thousand image outputs can display a thousand Zachary Toledo. The scariest thing is that this Zachary Toledo is the real Zach.
Zach was stunned for a while, "I..." We were lucky enough to see Zach stutter for the first time, "I... it's too much, I have a headache. I need to digest it, let's change the topic."
Okay, changing the topic, if Sissi doesn't provide a solution, given Sissi's character, well, it really can't be said to be impossible.
"The good news is that the remnants of the Fight Club are a minority population after all." What Zach is thinking is that if these small populations can be avoided, the impact on the Toledo clan may be minimized.
"And according to what you said, these people are violent elements who are dissatisfied with society." Frank didn't agree, "So these people bring their own rakes. I don't mind helping you clean them up if you need them."
"Then you need to travel around the Commonwealth." Zach was just telling the facts. "Sissi's Fight Club came all the way from the west to Barton. I only discovered the problem in Newton. No one knows about other cities. , how many such people are there."
"Oh, forget it." Very simply. reason? Barton is safe, but other places are safe? Everyone may have forgotten that when Frank first arrived, he hid in a public toilet waiting for the police to come to rescue him!
Having said that, we must ask whether Frank has made any progress with Sissi - progress towards the wizard family.
Don't forget that the reason why Frank came to Sissi was to delay his recall by the Sabbat - using the central wizarding issue that the Sabbat was concerned about as an excuse to continue to use his ancestor's usefulness in Barton.
"Did you get in touch with the Nutao family while you were here with Sissi?"
"Sissi seems to have deliberately avoided contact between me and the wizard undead (Rage Tao)." Frank showed Sissi's home, "If Sissi is not at home, she will send Rage Tao back to heaven. Someone from the Rage Tao family did come once, However, the content of their conversation with Sissi had nothing to do with wizards, but they were discussing issues of faith with Sissi."
Zach noticed the change in the mood of the two Indian angels after the topic came up with Indian elements.
Zach asked on behalf of the two angels, "What's the matter of faith?"
"The people of the Raging Waves family have bluntly stated that they have no intention of promoting witchcraft beliefs in the family or the Indian community." Frank shook his head, as if regretting, "The wizard family's hatred of their god, Papa Midnight, seems to be deep-rooted. So the wizard family wanted to know about the saint. Planning for the faith in the Holy Lord. When the problem of demons is solved, are you willing to leave some space for the Indians in preaching?”
"It sounds very empty."
"Don't build churches in specific communities. Church clergy should avoid entering areas designated by some wizarding families." That's specific enough.
"Oh." Zach pursed his lips, "This is probably related to the wizard family's plan to preserve the Indian bloodline and let the wizard's talent be passed down with the Indian soul."
"I think so too. The wizard family is reflecting on the mistake of over-concentrating resources and only focusing on cultivating powerful wizards, which resulted in the loss of a large number of Indian bloodlines who could become wizards." Frank has obviously made efforts to adapt to the times. Today's speculations, It is already in line with the problems faced by various forces at the current stage. "For the Sabbat, this is a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing is that if the Indian blood can be concentrated and no longer dispersed, for vampires, the scope of activities will naturally be clearer and more clear. Safety." After hearing the fact that Newton almost gave up, Hughes said, "At least the Sabbat vampires now need this safety guarantee."
Zach agrees.
"Bad thing, this is obviously the wizard family's way of recuperating." Frank continued to shake his head, "They are smart, they directly approached the saints to make an agreement, not the Sabbat. The Sabbat treats wizards as threats, and they should not easily It will give the wizard family the opportunity to continue to develop in the central part of the country."
"What did Sissi say?"
"Sissi agreed."
"You just agreed?"
"She has no reason to disagree." Frank blinked, "During my limited contact with the Raging Wave Wizard, I asked him how he exerted his wizard power in a heavenly environment."
Zach saw something strange in Frank's eyes, and put on a cooperative expression of listening.
"He said that except for the witchcraft in the soul series, which is very convenient for catching other undead souls in heaven when he needs to eat, it has no other uses. Witchcraft is more of a technology in this world."
Zach... wanted to laugh.
During the colonial wars four centuries ago, wizards had discovered that their witchcraft had no effect on the souls of Union soldiers. Investigating the root cause, it is because those souls have been destined by the faith of the Holy Lord and are bound to leave this world, either as dead souls in heaven or as dead souls in hell. Anyway, their souls no longer have anything to do with this world.
And now the price for Sissi to gain a dead wizard who belongs to heaven is that she has to raise this wizard. How to raise it? Oh, I'm sorry, the fact that we were supposed to provide supplies to wizards in this world has turned into the fact that heaven needs to provide supplies for the souls who have belonged to the world of Holy Lord faith.
Witchcraft, in heaven, has been completely reduced to a predatory technique.
At this time, Zach glanced at the two Indian Angels behind him. From their eyes, Zach saw confirmation.
And if we want to balance the uselessness of wizards in heaven, we can only let witchcraft play more roles in this world. Then, a very strange problem arises. When a dead spirit in heaven uses witchcraft, is he promoting the faith of the Holy Lord or the belief of witchcraft
Is there any need for this kind of special soul alien race with two attributes to be copied
Not at all!
This does not matter whether it is a paradise that believes in the Holy Lord or a wizard who believes in witchcraft. They are both embarrassing existences that you don’t want to touch!
"Okay, so have you reported your findings to the Sabbat?"
"Of course~" Frank said relaxedly, "I told Root this when he took the initiative to contact me." He smiled and said, "Haha, you should have listened to his tone~ He obviously swallowed the idea of recalling me. Go back and let me continue to keep an eye on the movements of the saints and the central wizard family here." Wink, "Also let me try to test out Rimel of the Smith family if possible, another one who has close ties with the wizard family. The vampire clan." The reason for blinking, "It is also the legacy of the secret alliance that has not shown loyalty to any party until now~"
Zach asked following these words, "What about Nophele? I understand that the Sabbat cares about the wizard families in the middle. What about Barton's wizard group and the wizards led by Sibella?"
"Lute didn't mention it, but I guess he would talk to you about this issue. After all, it involves Nofele, Sibella, Alpha Benjamin and Mokawi." It's all with Zach. Someone closer, isn't it
Well, it is said that Sibella is not close to Zach. Let’s forget about Sibella’s attitude towards Zach every time. Let’s just talk about a fact that lasts almost as long as this story—Sbella’s son is at Zach’s house.
Zach agreed. When he returned to Grande, it seemed he was 'looking forward' to Root's call.
After spending almost a whole day communicating, Sissi came back.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zach felt that Sissi had made a decision, so he continued his question.
But Sissi's mind seems to have been completely absent from the annoying guests in her home. As soon as she came back, she started busy preparing for the important date when she and Chris get back together.
Continuing from what was originally shown to you.
"What did you do to those poor humans, Sissy."
Sissi's non-answer is disappointing. Then, what Zach wants Sissi to realize is, 'This is no longer a personal issue that threatens my way of life, but also an issue of the future development of the Toledo clan. It's the problem of those poor humans. '
We just learned about the take-off of Revro and Toledo in this era in the discussion. In Newton, Revro and Toledo worked together to control the storage and distribution of images. For those remaining clubs who were against the city government What do they mean
There is no need for Frank to go out, just mourn for them. (To be continued)
