Chapter 39 Federal Research Report on Ghosts
Author: Repeated attacks and repeated battles
Put down Yadouzi and let her and her brother Tanjiro talk to each other in the Butterfly House.
Send Anjuro to summon the other pillars.
Rhodes and the butterfly ninja walked slowly towards the Japanese room where the Demon Slayer Corps held Hashira meetings.
"Lord-kun, do you want to get the power of the Demon Slayer Squad?"
I never expected to be asked such a straightforward question by Butterfly Ninja, and it didn't quite fit with my understanding of her.
Rhodes, who was a little surprised, turned his head and looked at Insect Pillar.
"Isn't it?"
The cute tilt of the head kills, and the familiar butterfly ninja is back in an instant.
She raised a finger and put it on the corner of her mouth, showing a beautiful smile as she asked.
"Do you want everyone's power so much? Or... do you want me?"
With a long voice, she gave Rhodes a straight ball off guard.
"..."
With a helpless expression, Rhodes pressed the butterfly ninja's shoulders with both hands.
"Yes, in order to win Miss Shinobu's heart, I tried to directly control the Demon Slayer Squad."
"This way I can give you orders legitimately!"
"Ahhh~ I'm so happy!"
The butterfly ninja looked like a little girl while cheering for joy.
"Do you know why an organization like the Demon Slayer Corps has always been a civil society group?"
Thinking that he would be confused by him, Butterfly Ninja watched as Rhodes regained his normal calm expression.
She also restrained her pretense and listened to his explanation.
"Because of the fear of the country's top leaders, not only the Demon King, but also the Demon Slayers themselves."
They continued to move forward with the butterfly ninja, not pretending to test each other, Rhode said.
"Why have ghosts existed for thousands of years, but there are only rumors among the people? That is a tacit understanding between ghosts and the upper echelons of human beings."
"Wuxian guarantees that the ruler will not be harmed, and the corresponding ruler cannot make the ghost's affairs public."
"Of course it's not okay to support the Demon Slayer Corps. From what I understand, your organization has faced desperate situations several times in history, right?"
"Yes." Butterfly Ninja also knew about the desperate situations that Rhodes mentioned about the Demon Slayer Team, so she answered directly.
"Thanks to the Lord's family, the Demon Slayer Squad can be reborn every time."
"Is it really just relying on the power of the Ubuyashiki clan? Without the Demon Slayer Corps, what else can humans do to resist demons?"
There is a lot of white space, enough to attract people's imagination.
Rhodes did not continue to explain, believing that the butterfly ninja with a pensive face should be able to understand.
"But adding Blue Cosmos is different. We won't be afraid of your power because we are stronger!"
"You can also tell those pillars these words."
"So is it still for me? When you become the lord, you can order me to do this or that! How scary!"
It should be said that women are really born actors.
One second he seemed to be worried about the Demon Slayer Squad, and the next second he was smiling happily, joking with Rhodes with his beautiful eyes.
"Ha, I can make Chongzhu my personal maid, I really look forward to it."
Following her words, Rhodes and Butterfly Ninja joked with each other on the road.
By the time the two of them arrived at the Zhuai meeting, Anjuro, who was much faster than them, had already found all the people they needed to find.
All the pillars, including the lord, once again gathered in the Japanese room.
Then they all stared quietly at the two Rhodes who walked in with Butterfly Nin and quarrelsomely.
The Butterfly Ninja, who was a little embarrassed to be stared at by everyone, hurriedly ran to her seat and sat down.
Rhodes, on the other hand, looked at the child kneeling behind his lord with some concern.
Considering his age and appearance, he brought his biological son here?
After making such a judgment and thinking about the inner meaning, he knelt down and sat opposite everyone as he did as the Romans did.
After a while, without making everyone wait any longer, Lieutenant Colonel Kane also brought in a machine with a forklift and placed it in the yard.
When the machine started to be debugged, the lieutenant colonel came in with a box, and Rhodes began to preach in conjunction with the images projected by several soldiers.
"As shown in the picture, the basic composition of ghosts is almost the same as that of humans. The brain, internal organs, muscles, etc. are almost the same from the image point of view."
"Then why do ghosts have such terrible recovery abilities and wonderful vampire skills?"
"After studying the samples, the scientists from our headquarters came up with a conjecture and verified it."
After a pause, Rhodes looked at all the pillars listening attentively.
Then he pointed at the projected helical intersecting gene chain and cell diagram.
"The human body is made up of cells. These things that are invisible to the naked eye constitute our brain fluid, muscles, bones, etc."
"And our consciousness exists in the brain. If the head is cut off, human beings will die."
"When a limb is lost, the cells that remember the structure of the limb will also disappear."
"This is why stab wounds on the body can heal on their own."
"The reason why once a limb is amputated, it will never grow back is because there are no cells left to remember the information about the limb."
"But if consciousness is dispersed into every cell that makes up a human being, they can have the same function as a brain."
"What if each cell can remember information about every part of the body at the same time?"
When Rhodes said this, he pointed at the spiral gene chain.
"Human lifespan is affected by this constantly dividing gene chain, and the specific explanation is very troublesome."
"You just need to understand that once this chain is completely broken, people will die."
"Cells that can replace the brain and remember all body information, and gene chains that almost never complete division. This is the basic conclusion drawn by this department's ghost analysis!"
After speaking in one breath and waiting for the lord and the pillars to understand, Rhodes patiently waited for the questions they would inevitably have.
"What about vampire magic? And why cannibals are afraid of the sun?"
The person who asked the question was Fengzhu Immortal Kawa Saneya instead of Anjurou. Rhodes looked at the questioner a few times.
"This involves consciousness or the soul...For some reasons, what I will say next are all conjectures. After all, there is no way to completely confirm it."
In fact, there is, Rhodes thought of it in the experimental records.
The ghost who was crying and struggling to have all kinds of food forced down his throat.
Those ghosts whose diets were physically changed inevitably went to self-destruction.
"Originally, only our brains can produce spiritual power, but now every cell in the ghost's body can play the same role."
"The spiritual energy gathered in memory cells has been strengthened to the extent that it can affect the material world."
"That's why vampire magic, an ability that transcends common sense, was born."
"The energy stored by these active cells themselves also exceeds the normal range, making their self-healing, or regenerative, capabilities astonishing."
"And those of us who practice breathing techniques have our brain cells strengthened like ghosts, so we have various sword techniques that can rival vampire techniques."
"But the mental energy produced only in the brain is not enough compared to the ghost that is activated all over the body."
"This is also the reason why Shangxian Gui is far more powerful than Zhu."
"As for cannibalism, it's also because the cells are over-activated, and each cell has its own consciousness."
"Ghosts need to continuously ingest human cells to solidify and anchor the unity of body cells, otherwise they will enter a countdown to destruction on their own."
"The fear of sunlight is also due to the fact that ghost cells are too active, causing the cell membrane to become thinner and unable to block the inactivation of sunlight."
After talking about a lot of theoretical knowledge, Rhodes felt that except for the lord and his son, other pillars...
Most likely, haha.
After a moment of silence, Lianzhu, a busty woman who could be categorized as a lover in any conventional sense, raised her hand tremblingly and asked.
"Can I understand that?"
