He stood up, and the others followed suit. They really needed to get more information from Genjiro.
“Actually, the biggest problem with the king is why he can’t be killed.” Caesar looked at Gu Ran. “Do you think you killed him?”
"I have other guesses about this, and we'll talk about them later." Gu Ran felt that Yuan Zhi Nu had suffered enough blows, and now he should be able to gain her trust.
Therefore, it's possible to reveal some information to make things clearer.
Five students from Kassel College came to Yuan Zhinv's room. Surprisingly, Yuan Zhinv had finished the instant noodles that Lu Mingfei had brought him. He was smoking a cigarette, leaning against the window of the room, looking at the rising sun outside.
Everyone watched him smoke, unsure how to speak for a moment. Finally, Fingel cleared his throat: "Ms. Yuan Zhinv, you have the right to remain silent..."
Yuan Zhinü smiled silently, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said softly, "I know what you want to ask. I've actually been thinking about how to tell you."
Next, Yuan Zhinu told everyone about his past. He and Yuan Zhisheng grew up together in the mountains. Yuan Zhisheng had a strong personality, which made him very attractive to girls.
Therefore, although Genjiro's bloodline was better than Genjiro's, Genjiro's heart was more resolute. No matter what difficulties there were, as long as Genjiro made up his mind, he would definitely succeed.
"In the end, he's just a bit dim-witted..." Gu Ran thought to himself, but didn't say it aloud so as not to interrupt Yuan Zhinv.
In general, Yuan Zhinv is a brother-complex character. Although her brother is very talented, academically excellent, athletic, and popular at school, Yuan Zhinv is not jealous of him at all. She is content as long as she can share some of his glory.
Later, Tachibana Masamune discovered them and said they were descendants of the Minamoto family. However, the Minamoto family could only have one head, so one was in power and the other was a substitute.
So Genjiro went to Tokyo with Tachibana Masamune, while Genjiro stayed in the mountains.
Then, Genji met the King, who became her teacher and tricked her into drinking a large amount of gene-enhancing drugs. However, Genji's body was special, and she had no problems after drinking the large amount of evolution drugs.
Chapter 474 My Favorite Onii-chan!
However, after Genji drank the evolution potion, although she did not become Deadpool, she was still affected by the will to kill, and then she killed many innocent girls.
Later, Genjiro went to the mountains and killed him.
The first demon that Genjiro killed was his own younger brother.
Later, Genjiro did not die, but was taken to the Oni Clan by the King. He announced to the Oni Clan that he had found the true 'Emperor' of the Inner Three Families, which was Genjiro, and then the Oni Clan cheered together.
Genjiro believed that the king had drawn out the 'evil spirit' from his body, and therefore it was all the king's fault, which was why he wanted to kill the king!
Because the king created so many obstacles between him and his 'older brother', he will never be able to see his beloved 'older brother' again! (laughs)
But only today did he realize that the king might never be able to be killed.
"I don't believe there are any unkillable people in this world." Caesar looked at Chu Zihang. "What do you think?"
"Reason tells me that, biologically speaking, there is indeed nothing that cannot be killed." Chu Zihang thought for a moment, then looked at Gu Ran, "What do you think?"
Gu Ran smiled slightly: "I killed the king three times and discovered some problems."
Everyone looked up and stared intently at Gu Ran.
Even Yuan Zhinu's eyes have gained some sparkle.
He is now placing all his hopes on Gu Ran.
“I don’t know the principle behind the King’s resurrection, but I killed the King three times, so I can share my feelings about those three times,” Gu Ran said.
"The first general I killed was probably the strongest. He was hit by five AS50 tungsten-core armor-piercing rounds in a row, and then by a magazine of mercury-core blunt metal armor-piercing rounds from Lu Mingfei, but he was completely unharmed. It took me some time and effort to kill him."
"The second time was much simpler. He was first half-crippled by Genjiro and his two companions, then I shot him in the head, and Kazama Ruri went up and beheaded him in half at the waist. His body was cut into three pieces and fell from the sky to the ground. He should be completely dead."
"The third time, I jumped onto the roof of the car and stabbed him in the head with ease."
Caesar listened to Gu Ran's words and said, "You mean that the more times a king is killed, the weaker he becomes?"
“That’s a reasonable guess, but I have another one.” Gu Ran looked at Lu Mingfei, “You should know the story of Misaka Mikoto, right?”
Lu Mingfei was stunned. He and Gu Ran had watched the anime "A Certain Magical Index" together on a plane when they were freshmen, so of course he knew the story of Misaka Mikoto.
"You mean... the kings are actually clones?" Lu Mingfei asked in surprise.
Gu Ran nodded: "Yes, and they are clones with capability defects."
Misaka Sisters are clones of Misaka Mikoto, a Level 5 esper from Academy City. Academy City created more than 20,000 Misaka Sisters, all using Misaka Mikoto's genes.
However, Misaka Sisters' abilities are not as good as Misaka Mikoto's. Their ability level is only LV2, and they occasionally have LV3 individuals. Of course, there are also specially created extra individuals, but their strength is only LV4, which is far from the original's LV5.
“Similarly, what we’ve been killing lately might just be clones of the King, and clones that are all at different stages of development. I took down the strongest one at the beginning, and the rest were just some low-level soldiers,” Gu Ran said. “This is a scientific explanation I came up with.”
Yuan Zhinü had never thought of this before. He was stunned for a moment: "Then why are all the king's memories the same?"
“It’s the Misaka Network.” Lu Mingfei guessed based on the content of the anime. “As long as people have the same brainwaves, they can emit brainwaves of the same frequency, and then they can form a network and share each other’s memories… Of course, this is the content of the anime, which is a bit too science fiction. In reality… there probably isn’t such technology.”
“But it’s not impossible,” Gu Ran said. “Or rather, there’s a command tower behind these clones.”
"Just like 'Last Order,' it's the command center for the Misaka Sisters!" Lu Mingfei said, still quite familiar with anime. "They can store their own memories, read memories, and even give memories to other Misaka Sisters."
Caesar and Chu Zihang exchanged a glance. This was the most plausible explanation at the moment, and it was reasonable and scientific.
Science fiction stories, of course, must be based on science.
“In reality, the command center only needs to issue orders and have the clones follow them. There’s no need to completely share memories,” Gu Ran said. “Then the clones can come back and report. There’s no need to overcomplicate it.”
“No wonder, no wonder, no wonder!” Yuan Zhinü seemed to have thought of something. “Once I killed him, but the next morning he greeted me as usual, as if nothing had happened. I’m afraid this is not because the king is magnanimous, but because he has no idea how he died yesterday!”
Yuan Zhinü's words seemed to confirm Gu Ran's guess, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If this guess was true, the King would not have become mysterious, and would not be an unkillable being, but would still be a carbon-based life form.
But this raises another question, Fingel said: "So, according to this assumption, there is someone else behind the king?"
A moment of silence fell over everyone. Yes, there were others behind the scenes, which meant there was a mastermind behind it all.
“Yes, the mastermind behind the king should be the one who truly wants to awaken the ‘god’,” Gu Ran concluded for them.
The crowd fell silent again, because they had no clue who was behind it all.
Especially Minamoto no Chino, who had the most contact with the kings, yet he had no thoughts about them whatsoever.
Moreover, he no longer has any power.
He confessed to everyone that the King could use the sound of the clapper to draw out the power of the demon, and that Kazama Ruri was actually the name of the demon. The King could also put this power to sleep, turning him back into the cowardly and powerless Genji.
"Then why is Lu Mingfei alright?" Caesar asked, looking at Lu Mingfei.
“That’s right, my junior brother is still as useless as ever!” Fingel added.
Yuan Zhinv suddenly looked at Gu Ran: "You know what that clapper sound was, right? Is it related to the problem in my head?"
"Are you out of your mind?" Fingel asked curiously.
Lu Mingfei tapped Fingel on the head, signaling him not to interrupt.
Then, everyone looked at Gu Ran again.
"It all started with a research paper." Gu Ran took out his iPad and showed everyone a neuroscience paper. "The paper is quite long. According to the abstract, it explains how brain damage can affect a person's personality."
"This paper says that brain damage can affect a person's personality. For example, damage to the prefrontal cortex may lead to mania and impaired self-control. Another example is that damage to the pons may cause personality disorder."
After saying that, Gu Ran looked at Genjiro: "Don't you think you have a split personality? Kazama Ruri is one personality, very strong, powerful, and confident, while Genjiro is another, without power and easily manipulated."
“That clapper sound… is a kind of hypnotic technique!” Chu Zihang, as expected of a science student, had many “unmasked conversations” with his school counselor, Masashi Tomiyama, during his school years, and thus had a considerable understanding of psychology.
“That’s right,” Gu Ran said to Yuan Zhinv. “This can also be explained scientifically. Your brain underwent a mid-pons surgery by Wang Jiang at a strange time, which is believed to have caused your personality split.”
Yuan Zhinv would never have believed it before, but after listening to Gu Ran, she had her brain checked. She had a CT scan report and a diagnosis from a brain specialist. However, the brain specialist only said that pontine rupture was a treatment for epilepsy and did not consider schizophrenia.
"What about Lu Mingfei? Did Lu Mingfei also have pontine transection surgery?" Fingel pointed at his useless junior brother. "Doesn't he also go crazy when he hears the sound of a clapper?"
Lu Mingfei looked completely bewildered: "Me? Did I do that? I don't know!"
He has never suffered from amnesia since childhood, so he probably hasn't done it, right?
“Lu Mingfei must have other circumstances, which are special cases, so let’s leave that aside for now.” Gu Ran knew, of course, that Lu Mingfei had not undergone pontomedullary surgery.
He was simply possessed by a ghost, or rather, 'possessed'?
When he hallucinates, the memories are imposed on him, not things that were originally in his mind.
Moreover, if Lu Mingfei were to have a CT scan, it would be clear that he had not undergone pontine transection surgery.
Gu Ran pulled up another photo from the iPad and showed it to everyone: "This is Deadpool from last night. I specifically dissected two of them to check their heads, and they did indeed have pontomy surgery."
Although none of them had a medical background, they could still clearly see, thanks to the CT images from the research paper, that these Deadpools had all undergone pontomeutomy.
"Wait, Erii!" Lu Mingfei suddenly stood up. "What happened to Erii? Why did she also have that surgery?"
“It’s very simple.” Chu Zihang immediately deduced the conclusion, “Someone is behind it all, controlling both the Snake-Headed Eight Families and the Fierce Demon Clan!”
Upon hearing this conclusion, everyone was shocked. Who exactly was this person who could simultaneously control the Snake Clan and the Demon Clan?
"Oh no, my brother is in danger!" Yuan Zhinv exclaimed in surprise. "He definitely doesn't know that he's been manipulated all along!"
"Given the current situation, we should cooperate with the Snake Clan and exchange information," Caesar said. "We should unite against external threats at this time."
“But my brother won’t trust you, nor will he trust me,” said Genjiro. “My brother has always been a very stubborn person. He will definitely complete Tachibana Masamune’s plan, which is to kill the god and make the Snake-Headed Eight Families independent again, breaking away from the control of the Secret Party. His next goal should be to continue killing the King!”
Chapter 475 Zero, whom we haven't seen in a long time
“But we don’t know exactly how many clones the King has,” Caesar said. “And given the tortoise’s intelligence… he probably can’t defeat the King and his men.”
“Then brother will have to use Erii,” said Genjiro. “Her destructive power is at the Dragon King level.”
“But she can also be controlled by the sound of the clapper,” Chu Zihang said. “The person behind the scenes is the one who truly controls everything.”
"Do you really have no thoughts about the person behind the scenes?" Caesar asked Genji.
Yuan Zhinu shook her head and looked at Gu Ran again.
“I don’t have any ideas either,” Gu Ran said, spreading his hands. “But I guess you, Yuan Zhisheng, and Erii are all very important pieces, so we need to protect you first.”
"Don't worry, if the king finds you, we will protect you." Caesar patted Yuan Zhinü on the shoulder, then stood up. "Get some rest, leave the rest to us."
Everyone slowly walked out of the room, leaving only Yuan Zhinü alone inside, lost in thought.
……
Gu Ran returned to his luxury hotel suite in Shinjuku. He hadn't checked out of the room yet, so he was the only one staying there. Yuan Zhisheng hadn't come to bother him.
He took a hot shower, lay in bed, and looked at the system notifications.
He submitted a large number of blood samples during last night's battle, and the system has now completed the settlement.
[All blood samples have been distributed; rewards will now be distributed.]
