"Pa bang bang..."
Wu Ke applauded and praised.
"Your race is really smart. Each of you can quickly realize that something is wrong, and then keep the information I want to explore from you secret."
He had some regrets.
"It seems that my understanding of the information about the Seed of Lament stops here."
"So, I was the last one to get information?"
"Yes."
"I think we can talk about it. Cooperation may not be impossible."
"Unless you Kyubey can hand over all the information and technical information about magical girls and witches first, and let me take the initiative to cooperate with you, otherwise, it will be difficult for me to believe that you have no feelings and have deceived countless magical girls. .”
"Our family has never deceived anyone."
Kyubey retorted.
“It’s not just untrue words that are lies. Even things that are true and correct can constitute lies as long as they are under certain circumstances, such as information asymmetry.
And you Kyubeys are good at this. You like to mislead information. As long as you don't mention it, you will not tell the magical girl the truth.
Let me think about it again, if I speculate on you with the greatest malice, maybe the witches that exist in this world may be interfered and controlled by you. "
"This is groundless slander and speculation!"
Kyubey was a little angry.
"But it could be true."
Wu Ke answered.
“In order to prevent the increase in entropy of this universe and avoid the arrival of heat death in this universe, your incubator civilization has developed technology to turn [emotions] into [energy].
However, your species itself does not have such a thing as emotions, so you have set your sights on the humans of this planet who are rich in emotions. "
This is what Wu Ke asked about this race from the first Kyubey, and the purpose of creating magical girls and witches.
“Among the seven conventional human emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, joy, sadness and fear, the sharp changes in joy and sorrow are the ones that can generate the most huge amounts of energy.
Therefore, [Hope] and [Despair] represented by them are the best choices for you Kyubey family to transform human emotional energy.
Among humans, those who are most likely to have a reversal of joy and sorrow are the most emotional human girls. Your family uses their hopeful hearts to capture their hearts and transform them from [Hope] to [Despair], and from [Magical Girl] The huge energy generated by the fall into [Witch].
And it’s hard for me to believe that during this whole process, you Kyubey family won’t do anything to interfere and accelerate the despair of the magical girl.
According to you, it is the same behavior as humans speeding up the release of artificially bred meat animals from cages and shortening the time it takes for them to be served to the table. "
There was not much sadness or joy on Wu Ke's face when he said this, and there was not even a look of anger on his face, but he seemed to be objectively stating a fact and inferring the most likely situation.
"Indeed, some are irrefutable."
Kyubey acquiesced.
"However, compared to the reversal energy of despair brought by intervention, the energy generated by natural despair will be more. That is, only when a magical girl is mentally tough and strong enough to make it difficult to turn her natural despair into a witch. Only our clan will interfere."
Kyubey said.
"Oh, I got another piece of information."
“It’s just that I’m a little confused. Why do you, a being I’ll call [Unknown God], want to obtain the information and technology of our clan’s magical girls and witches?
Could it be that as a god, there is also a lack of energy? Do you want to harvest huge energy like us by creating magical girls who turn hope into despair? "
Kyubey asked directly, it was really curious.
"It's not energy, I'm here for justice."
"justice?"
"Human justice, justice from the perspective of a magical girl."
Wu Ke answered seriously.
"Before I was imprisoned by you, you seemed to have told me as another individual that as long as I called for help, you would do it regardless of whether I was a human or not."
Kyubey thought thoughtfully: "I see, the justice of saving those who call for help, is this the concept you represent?"
Then, Kyubey had a new thought: "If I call for help now, will you destroy yourself to save me?"
"Why should I destroy myself?"
Wu Ke couldn't keep up with Kyubey's brain circuit.
"I know your information, and I have lost the value of other things you can get from me and other things you need. Wouldn't you kill me to silence me and continue to keep me?"
This Kyubey said matter-of-factly that its individual had been alive for too long, had seen a lot of filth and filth among humans, and had become more or less accustomed to a way of thinking similar to that of humans.
"Don't worry, I am a messenger of justice, not a murderous maniac, so I will not kill an intelligent creature at will."
Kyubey blinked his red eyes.
"Then what will happen to me?"
it asked.
"Like your other companions, until you change your mind and are willing to tell me some other information, you will all be imprisoned by my evil thoughts in my body."
Wu Ke snapped his fingers, and the swamp-like mud of evil thoughts emerged from the shadow at Kyubey's feet. His red and white body was clinging to the black tentacles formed by many evil thoughts.
The evil thoughts of fear penetrated Qiubi's consciousness, dragging it down bit by bit into the swamp of evil thoughts at his feet. The whole process was very slow: "It's useless, unless it's an individual with a mental illness, otherwise we The Kyubey family will not be afraid at all because of the unknown, but may be curious..."
Although Kyubeys have no emotions, they are existences with desires. The desire to survive and the desire for knowledge are the two most typical ones.
Of course, the desire to survive here refers to the desire to survive of the entire ethnic group. When it comes to sacrificing individuals for the entire ethnic group, Kyubey’s action pattern is more like those extreme groupisms that Wu Keli saw in the world of Terra. Like Haiji.
Soon, this Qiubi was pulled into the evil space of the god's head by the black mud of Wu Ke's evil thoughts. This place was full of unprovoked evil thoughts rolling around. If ordinary people were here, it wouldn't take long. Go crazy.
But as for the incubator family, this Kyubey was here, meeting three other Kyubey individuals who were carefully observing this unique environment...
. . . .
"Hey, so there's still one of us left outside?"
This Kyubey was the last one to be caught.
"No more. The first one caught is already dead."
A voice answered it, and a Kyubey jumped down from the rolling black mud 'hill'.
"The being who brought us into this place took advantage of the mentally weak state of the seriously injured individual to try to break into our clan's spiritual network and steal our clan's important information through its mental port.
But it is a pity that although our mental power is not worth mentioning compared with it, it can still prevent brute force from cracking the spiritual network.
The injured individual banged in front of me, and its head exploded due to the powerful spiritual energy that invaded.
So, there are only four of us left..."
Kyubey jumped over here and said this.
"Our conscious communication is isolated here. That person intends to make us who are unable to communicate consciously fall into a state of individual independence. I am very sorry. It was me who exposed the information about emotional mental illness in our clan to him. "
"He wants us to get sick and have feelings, and then coerce us into cooperating."
The three Kyubeys who existed in the space of evil thoughts soon got together with the Kyubey who came in last and discussed the difficult situation they were in.
"Can't we kill ourselves?"
"Unfortunately, these negative energies here will prevent us from doing harm to other individuals, or harming ourselves."
One kewpie bumped its head against the black mud of evil thoughts that looked hard but was actually soft, and was bounced away. Even when it was about to hit another kewpie, it was knocked back by black tentacles rising from the ground. Hold gently.
"Because our family has never thought that it may be necessary for individuals to commit suicide at certain times, so without a self-destruction program implanted, we are completely unable to commit suicide in this situation.
Friends, we have to admit the fact that we are trapped, and the situation that the other party wants to make us suffer from mental illness may not be completely impossible.
So, I think we should be actively communicating in this place to prevent mental illness from happening and ending up doing things that are not in the interest of the race. "
Kyubey's words in the middle were very constructive, and Kyubey who came in at the end nodded and agreed with it.
However, what this Kyubey doesn't know is that there are other Kyubeys in this strange space filled with evil thoughts.
They are also staying with [their own companion individuals], discussing how to deal with the next possible situation of getting sick and being succeeded.
. . . .
The best way to deal with individuals with collective will is actually to sneak into the other party's collective will, just like the god of the deep sea in disguise in the world of Terra.
But it is a pity that although Kyubey's spiritual network is not very strong, it is very sophisticated. Wu Ke tried to crack it (brute force attack), but failed.
However, he thought of another way. Since the psychic network is the way Kyubey recognizes his companions, he just needs to create a place that isolates the psychic network, and then disguise himself as one of Kyubey's own people and break in from the outside. Is there another possibility of sneaking in and blending into Kyubey?
It's something to look forward to, and now...
Wu Ke looked at the Lament Seed in his hand.
He has already learned so much information. Although there is no information about the core of the Seed of Lament, he should be able to extract and purify the black energy of despair in the outer shell without damaging the Seed of Lament...
After thinking about this matter carefully, Wu Ke did not hesitate for long and quickly started to take action. A large number of threads of evil thoughts penetrated into the inside of the Seed of Lament in a feeding manner from all angles, without any trace of the black energy inside. To resist, but to give up resistance and be absorbed and integrated into it...
In the room, large butterflies with strange paintings suddenly appeared around him as he walked. At some point, those beard flowers also grew out of the corner, floating in the air, like moths with countless curious eyes. Creature, all eyes are staring at him...
"Well……"
The voice of the witch whose shell he had destroyed appeared faintly.
Obviously, after being charged with negative power, the witch inside the Seed of Lament began to revive.
. . . .
The door was opened.
"I made strawberry cake, do you want to come over and eat it?"
Sitting in front of the glass table, Tomoe Mami waved and asked the people coming out of the room.
"Hello, excuse me."
Madoka Shikame, who was opposite Tomoe Asami, greeted politely.
"We are having a tea party, and the black tea made by my senior is delicious."
Sayaka said, holding up the teacup in her hand.
"I got this today."
Xiao Meiyan was still a little cold, so she took out a Lament Seed from her pocket and placed it on the table.
Wu Ke walked over and picked up the second Seed of Lament.
"Actually, you don't need to fight. If you find any trace of the witch, give her a call and I will get it myself."
"I know, but that will disturb your research. I can't do this kind of thing, but it will be more efficient to get it directly for you."
"Here, your cake."
At this time, Tomoe Asami cut a piece of strawberry cake and put it on a ceramic plate and handed it over.
"Thanks."
Wu Ke thanked him and did not refuse the food delivered to his door. .
"How does the strawberry cake I made myself taste just after it was freshly baked?"
Asami asked after seeing him eating.
"It's okay. It shouldn't be a problem to open a cake shop."
Wu Ke made his assessment objectively.
"I heard that you were trying to save the... um, magical girl who turned into a witch and attacked us that day. How is the situation?"
Sayaka was very curious and seemed to have other purposes, asking about the progress of this matter.
"There is some progress, but..."
Finding that the four girls here were all looking over, Wu Ke thought for a moment and took out the first Seed of Lament.
Asami Tomoe was a little surprised to find that the seeds of lamentation that were originally supposed to be extremely dark now looked a little turbid.
It's like black paint was suddenly added with a little white paint. The dark color became lighter, giving it a touch of gray.
And this was not over yet, the Lament Seed in Wu Ke's hand suddenly emitted a faint gray-black light.
Immediately afterwards, a wriggling creature with a rose flower on its head slowly condensed from the Lament Seed.
"This is?"
Sayaka asked curiously.
"Witch."
Wu Keyan answered briefly and comprehensively.
At this time, the Rose Witch also came out completely. She seemed to find that someone was looking at her. She trembled and, under the gaze of the four girls, climbed to the back of Wu Ke's hand at a speed that was relatively fast for a real snail. He used his sleeves as shells and retracted them to hide.
"..."
