Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 58 Miss Crow
'To participate in the training for mysterious powers, wouldn't one first have to pass the test of mental infiltration?'

'Previously, to be on the safe side, I kept my mastery of mental infiltration and two other mysterious abilities a secret. Now, while training in these mysterious powers, I wonder if it will arouse suspicion?'

'But that's not right either; it was right of me to keep it a secret before.'

During this period, Han Su has deepened his understanding of the Disaster Management Bureau through various means, and naturally he has also learned about the two outcomes for those who have already achieved mental infiltration when they entered the Disaster Management Bureau or when they came into contact with bizarre phenomena.

One type is those who are directly assigned to Group D1, but these people are often those who have mentors from the mystical side, have connections, and are considered safe and controllable.

Just like Miss Crow.

Another type was considered to be extremely easy to get out of control and could not be left unattended, so they were directly added to Group D7.

They had no freedom, were forcibly imprisoned, and never knew when they would be sent to face the bizarre.

Although Han Su had never seen the D7 group, which he had heard so much about but never actually met, he was quite certain that being in the D2 group was already a pretty good situation for him.

Of course, out of caution, the best approach is to first appear as if no infiltration has occurred, and then, when the disaster management bureau is training you, choose an opportune moment to appear as if you have suddenly succeeded in infiltrating.

In this way, they can deceive everyone.

The idea was sound, but Han Su wasn't sure about its feasibility, so he took out his phone and sent a message:
Miss Crow

【exist】

Looking at the concise message that popped up in the chat box with the black raven avatar, Han Su thought for a moment and asked: [How is mental infiltration conducted during the training of mysterious powers?]

Miss Crow quickly replied: 【Come find me in Training Room C2.】

"Ok?"

Han Su only wanted to know how others performed during mental infiltration training so that he could impersonate them, but he didn't expect her to respond like this. Thinking that she might be worried about information leakage and wanted to tell him in person, he put away his phone and walked over.

Arriving at the training room at the Disaster Management Bureau base, which was open to D1D2 personnel, Han Su saw Miss Crow sitting alone in the room.

She seemed to be practicing something. The walls of the room were made of dark metal with faint lines that formed some kind of mysterious rune shape.

The training room is very spacious, and theoretically quite empty.

But for some reason, Han Su stopped at the entrance of the training ground.

A strange feeling permeated the training room, making him feel extremely "crowded".

"Come in and sit down."

She sat on the carpet in the center of the room, not answering, but speaking softly.

The moment she spoke, it was as if something tense in the training room was broken, or as if a bright light in the stadium, almost blindingly bright, was suddenly turned off. As a result, the entire space became normal and soft.

Han Su walked in, looked around, and seeing that there were no chairs in the room, sat down next to her: "What are you doing?"

Miss Crow felt a little uncomfortable as Han Su approached, and subconsciously shrank back, but then relaxed and returned to her original posture, keeping her head close to Han Su's.

“Conduct regular mental strength control training.”

As she spoke, she turned halfway around to face Han Su and said, "Why are you suddenly concerned about mental infiltration?"

Han Su thought for a moment and said, "I want to undergo training in mysterious powers, but I have never been exposed to these things before. If I can understand this feeling in advance, perhaps I won't be so unfamiliar with it when I start training in this area."

Perhaps Miss Crow would think this violates the rules, Han Su thought, having already come up with a reason.

But instead of asking, she tilted her head slightly and said, "Have you thought it through?"

Miss Crow tilted her head and said, "After completing the mental infiltration, you will possess a power beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, but there will be a price to pay for each use."

"If some kind of mystical monster were to descend, you would always be more likely to attract its attention than an ordinary person, and even..."

She thought for a moment and found a vivid analogy: "Even when you're just walking at night, you're more likely to encounter ghosts than others."

Han Su laughed and said, "Isn't that great?"

Miss Crow paused for a moment, somewhat puzzled: "Is everything alright?"

Han Su said, "At least others will know what you encountered."

"But speaking of which, what exactly does the Disaster Management Bureau mean by helping us achieve 'mental infiltration'?"

Hearing Han Su mention the key point, Miss Crow became more serious. She sat upright facing Han Su and said, "Mental infiltration is to 'come alive' one's own mental power and infiltrate reality in a controllable way."

"There are two ways to achieve spiritual infiltration of ordinary people."

"One method is to listen to the cryptic incantation over and over again until it triggers a spiritual resonance, allowing you to find your own way out. After memorizing this feeling, you then undergo repeated training to master this 'penetration'."

"Another method is to forcibly create a breach for oneself through bizarre pollution." "..."

Han Su was slightly taken aback: "Forced?"

Han Su felt a strange stirring in his heart. "I achieved mental infiltration because I encountered the ghost truck, which also falls into the second category?"

"certainly……"

Miss Crow added, "Seeking the bizarre to help one achieve mental infiltration is a very dangerous thing. It will subject one to extremely terrible pollution and even cause one to lose one's sanity."

"But there is another method based on this principle."

As she spoke, she took Han Su's hand. He could feel that her small hand was cold and soft: "That is, having other people who have already achieved mental infiltration help you experience the feeling of mental infiltration. This is essentially the same as bizarre pollution."

"However, it is more controllable and safer. The downside is that it will consume a lot of the energy of the person who infuses you with their spirit, and it requires a long period of repeated practice to help you control the ability of spiritual infiltration."

"I can let you experience it once now, do you want to?"

"..."

"Thanks……"

Looking at her serious expression, Han Su nodded slightly and said, "Won't I let you break the rules?"

"I'm just letting you feel the activity, not helping you complete the penetration."

Miss Crow explained earnestly, "This is permitted by the Disaster Management Bureau. Many people have already completed this step before joining the Disaster Management Bureau."

Han Su felt relieved and said, "Come on."

Miss Crow nodded slightly, and Han Su suddenly felt that the hand she was holding had become even colder.

It was a feeling of being immersed in coolness, and this coldness seemed to have its own life.

It was slowly seeping into her palm, then traveling upwards along her hand, like a cold snake burrowing into her veins.

It was a wonderful experience...

This assessment flashed through Han Su's mind.

"Be careful, I'm going to let you feel the activity of spiritual power, just like my aunt did to me when I was a child."

An even more wondrous experience unfolded: Miss Crow didn't speak, but Han Su suddenly heard her voice.

It was the "coolness" she transmitted into her palm that was a manifestation of spiritual power, inherently possessing the ability to carry "information." Therefore, in addition to language, sound, and touch, it brought information transmission to Han Su.

"To be precise, the infiltration of ideas can be divided into two steps."

"First, it's about bringing your spirit back to life."

Second, the spirit seeks an outlet.

"..."

She transmitted the "coolness" into Han Su's palm, slowly and carefully moving through his arm, penetrating deeper into his body.

"Due to the rules, I can only let you feel the sensation of your spirit 'coming alive' right now."

"This is the foundation of everything. As long as you can clearly feel the sensation of your spirit coming alive, you can try to control this feeling yourself. Once you reach the standard of control, the spiritual penetration will only be a matter of time."

"..."

As she transmitted the information, this icy sensation traveled through Han Su's body, attempting to create some controllable "ripples."

It's like someone taking a twig and poking at the calm surface of a lake.

However, Han Su's spiritual world was vast and lonely, so the strength of the small branch seemed somewhat weak, and Miss Crow could only try to increase the force.

'His cipher aptitude seems to be A? But that doesn't quite add up. My aunt said that's because Minister Zhang put in too much effort; she said his actual cipher aptitude is quite low.'

'That makes sense. Precisely because his aptitude for ciphers is low, his mental strength is also very stubborn.'

'It would take even more spiritual strength to bring him back to life...'

'...'

As she thought about it, she deliberately increased the penetration of her mental power, and the icy feeling became clearer, seeping into Han Su's palm at a faster speed.

Not enough? Add some.

Not enough? Add some more!
