บท 714: Chapter 712: Defend_1

After Mr. Hog mentioned the term "Standin messenger," Jiu felt that this serious, academic discussion was veering into strange territory.

But unlike those laymen who could only spout baseless accusations, he quickly adjusted his heartbeat and tried to view the matter through the eyes of a Psychic researcher.

According to Mr. Hog's description, the major difference between Standins and Psychics lay in their ability to see the phantom projections of their own spiritual power, while other aspects could be explained by Psychic Abilities.

Jiu never got too hung up on terminology. Whether they were called Standin messengers, Demon Hunters, Witches, or Taoists—as long as the essence of Spiritual Energy remained the same, he could attempt to understand these identities through his own research. Once he put aside the trivial details, Mr. Hog—a layman after all—had actually proposed a rather interesting hypothesis.
