WHAT IS BLUE SEALS (蓝印) AND GREY SEALS (灰印)?
Little informations was revealed. From what we gather, Blue Seal is divided into two types: Conversion Type Blue Seal and Auxiliary Type Blue Seal.'Auxiliary Type Blue Seal' seals naturally carried the grey color hence why they are called "Grey Seal" or "Little Grey".There are many Auxiliary Type Blue Seals as they are needed to be the auxiliary for Conversion Type Blue Seals with the purpose of absorbing human emotions.Grey Seals maximum usages are 3 times, they suffers gravely after each usage and and often ends up dead.
WHAT IS ENERGY CRYSTAL (能量晶)?
To put simply, energy crystal is an extra organ that being artificially stimulated into human bodies by Utopia researchers. The main function of energy crystal is to absorb emotions and convert them into energy. This new type of energy is called ‘emotional energy'.Grey Seals must exist alongside Blue Seals because it is impossible to extract one single type of emotion from the human body for they always come as a pairs.Theoretically speaking, someone who carries a pairs of energy crystals will be able to convey emotions into energy on their own without the need of an auxiliary. But this theory goes against the Law of Emotional Attraction in which Blue Seals’ energy system based on. (Each person can only carry one single core of crystal energy)Later on we learn that Blue Seals is actually a mutation product from experiments because their existence on its own has deadly fatal flaws. They can't extract energy on their own nor they can eliminate the extra 'materials' through natural means, therefore would suffer many side effects in the long run.
EMOTIONAL CORRESPONDENCE TYPES
There are four emotional correspondence types:Type 1: Happiness
Type 2: SadnessType 3: Fear
Type 4: AngerYou can only absorb the emotions of your type.It is also mentioned that the death rate for Type 2s are rather high and they can die easily from just one single usage.
what is perfect double core?
In the beginning, 'Project Utopia' denied the existence of the double core energy crystal system for two reasons: it couldn't have been possible since theoretically double core doesn't exist and if it is, it will still wouldn't be as strong as Blue Seals's with their one core systems. Since Utopia considered 'power’ as criteria for whether a species's evolution is successful or not, they chose to focus on Blue Seals and opted for quantity over stability.After finding out that Su Qing is able to activate a pairs of energy crystals, Utopia continues to conduct more and more experiments on human bodies in hope of achieving the same goal.
