The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 25: About heterogeneous

Views:

We don't know if Vivian's magic weapon works or not. Anyway, Hao Ren didn't continue to have nightmares for the next three nights - but he didn't think it had anything to do with the gossip disk. One of the reasons is that he knows that the gossip plate is not originally used to ward off evil spirits. It is also in line with the setting to find a spiritual treasure by looking at Fengshui. He found a line of small characters in the corner of the gossip plate, which said the name of a certain wood craft factory in Sichuan... This is completely impossible to say.

He decided not to tell Vivian the truth.

In any case, it's a good sign that he didn't continue to have nightmares. Although the wolf fur brought from the dream to the real world still made people feel uneasy, Hao Ren was almost sure that he was being targeted by something terrible again, but he He is a guy who can enlighten himself, even if the sky falls, as long as Yao Ming is not dead, he can live happily - nightmare or something, wait until you see Raven 12345 and ask.

Speaking of Raven 12345, Hao Ren went to her once two days ago. After all, there were many things that he didn't clarify last time. Didn't see that weird "goddess". Hao Ren still used the same method as last time. He took the car to the "bad bastard" that made people complain so much, and then found the street light pole with the old Chinese medicine advertisement on it. This proves that his previous experience was not a dream, but there is no shadow of Raven 12345 in the bungalow. Hao Ren only saw a few blue fog people wandering around the garden and the big house—they should be the servants of Raven 12345. They seem to have high intelligence, but they don't seem to be able to speak human language. Hao Ren feels completely incapable of dealing with them. comminicate.

A blue fog man handed Hao Ren a note. Raven 12345 wrote on the note that she had something important to go to Centaur, and she would be back in about three to five days. If she played crazy, she might come back in three to five years.

Then Hao Ren grabbed the unreliable message paper and was kicked out by the blue servant.

"This is really unreliable..." Hao Ren was reading magazines in the living room with the air conditioner blowing on. He felt a pain in the ass remembering the experience of going to the "Space-Time Administration Office in Wangbatuozi" two days ago, and he didn't know that the raven When will 12345 come back to answer his questions. Now Hao Ren feels that he is shrouded in a cloud of fog, and there are things he can't figure out everywhere. He doesn't even know where to start asking, but the only person who can tell him everything is a crazy person. Reliable "Goddess". If he hadn't been generous, he felt that OCD alone would be enough to kill people.

Of course, in the past two days, he also tried to find out about "heteromorphs" from Vivienne and Lily. How should I put it... It's somewhat rewarding. At least he has some real understanding of the two kinds of aliens, werewolves and vampires. , and also have a vague impression of the "world" that dissociates from human society.

Alien—this is what Hao Ren subconsciously called Lily and Vivian. In fact, it is also what many human beings call when they face those inhuman things. What dissatisfaction.

It is unknown when the aliens originated. It seems that there have been their shadows since human beings have historical records, from the grotesque mythical ghosts in ancient times, to the vigorous church in the Middle Ages to eliminate monsters, to subdue demons in China, and to modern times. The horror stories that have been circulated are full of half-truths and heterogeneous legends everywhere. Vampires, werewolves, demons, and undead are considered by many people today to be just scare stories, but in the era when these ancient stories were just taking shape, they were real "witness records."

Most of the aliens are a threat to human beings. The initial conflicts are now unverifiable, but it is certain that the aliens and humans have been in constant friction before historical records, but at the same time as friction, there are also many aliens and humans. live in close contact with each other. In the age of human cave dwelling, aliens are the most primitive gods or beasts in ancient stories. Many ancient books that have been handed down to this day have mentioned "gods" and "strange men" with animal characteristics or three heads and six arms, or they have strange appearances. No matter how you look at the mutant monsters that do not conform to the theory of evolution, some of these records are the imagination and exaggeration of the ancients, some of them are deformed children that actually existed in ancient times due to inbreeding and diseases, and the rest are basically It is the aliens who really existed.

Together with humans at that time, they weaved the early volumes of earth civilization and played the role of "genie" in the records of civilization.

Vivienne has experienced that era—even though her memory is a little confused for some reason, she can still introduce some basic information. The most terrifying piece of information that Hao Ren heard from her is that... Zeus actually existed, he was a thunderbolt A giant with a brain...

It is obvious that in the early days of contact between aliens and humans, the former has an overwhelming advantage: aliens usually have special abilities far beyond human understanding, have a long lifespan, tenacious vitality, and are more than a little bit smarter than early humans. This kind of absolute dominance can be tossed around as they please. It is plainly the result of their whim to become a vicious beast that harms the common people or a primitive god to protect the side, but this situation has changed over time. Vivienne's memory is not very reliable, so she is not sure how the aliens suddenly declined. In short, there are three reasons for sure: first, human beings are gradually civilized, and when the aliens relax, human beings gradually understand unity Rise up and create more sophisticated tools to fight against the tyrannical gods and monsters, but the latter has always maintained a relatively loose and independent small group, and those who are alone are easy to be defeated individually; second, the alien group is inexplicably declining; third, the hunter The devil appeared.

The third point is also the most important.

Demon hunters are strange guys with half human blood. No one can explain how they appeared, as if they came out of nowhere. Once they appeared, they began to hunt "heterogeneous" all over the world. The name of the witcher was not like this at the beginning. They didn't have a fixed title at the beginning, and they could be called whatever. It wasn't until the European Holy See popularized the name "witcher" in the Middle Ages that this title became widely used. recognized. At that time, Europe was the last place where aliens ravaged, so the European Holy See's classification, title, and definition of various aliens and demon hunters became the "final version", which has continued to this day.

I don't know if this is luck or misfortune in Europe...

In short, the activity of the demon hunters has caused the "heterogeneous" to gradually withdraw from the big stage of the earth's civilization, from the rulers at the beginning to the fringes. Although the aliens still possess great power, they basically can't make much trouble.

This is what Hao Ren heard from Vivienne. It is the unbelievable side hidden behind the calm real world that he has believed for more than 20 years... But anyway, the Three Views have been rebuilt after the disaster, so let it collapse.

As for the two superwomen in the family, Hao Ren also took a closer look.

Lily is a "young werewolf" with only a few decades of life experience, and is a senior bastard, so there is not much information to provide, but Vivian is a high-ranking blood who is said to have lived for many years. Hao Ren heard about it for the first time. When I said it, I was shocked by the girl's qualifications: she has been active in this world since before the currency was invented by humans, and it can be said that it is older than the history of human civilization in many regions! But the strange thing is that Vivienne's knowledge of things is also very limited. Her memory of thousands of years is a bit hazy. It is said that the most common thing is to sleep in various places. Until modern times, human society was quite dull for Vivienne. This eccentric senior vampire is not as keen on tossing humans or "improving taste" like her compatriots. She focuses most of her time on dealing with My own bad luck... Anyway, after living so ignorantly for so many years, Hao Ren felt that she was definitely worthy of shame as a vampire.

But she is a good girl for humans.

I don't know how she formed this worldview.
