Abnormal Doomsday Records

Chapter 80 13. So everything is a card drawing game?
Zhou Ke had a good sleep and once again dreamed of the wonderful life in his previous life.

In this dream, he did not encounter a car accident, but was a happy fisherman. However, when he caught a big fish and was about to pull it up, the dream ended abruptly.

It was probably because Zhou Ke had never caught any big fish in his previous life. It was like the principle that a little virgin could not experience the supreme feeling even in an erotic dream. Because dreams are constructed based on reality, they cannot create something that does not exist out of thin air. Therefore, when it came to this part, it could not proceed due to the lack of "rendering materials".

Well, it's a tragedy in every sense of the word.

When he opened his eyes, what he saw was Weng Mingyue's face with a strong desire to study, and the lenses that shone with a strange light under the light.

It's quite like the opening scene in a horror movie where the protagonist is kidnapped by a perverted scientist and used for experiments.

"Don't get so close to me."

He complained.

He stretched out his hand to push away Weng Mingyue in front of him, sat up, looked around, and said:

"Where's D-4?"

"You were in the next room repairing your damaged appearance. You have no idea how miserable she was when she sent you here. I couldn't even tell who was the patient for a moment."

Weng Mingyue pushed up his glasses and said:

"That robot is very loyal to you. I guess you don't know how much trouble she made in Creedburg to save you."

"Ok?"

Zhou Ke blinked in surprise. Weng Mingyue turned sideways and turned on the TV on the wall, tuning it to the Central City News Channel, which was playing a news insert.

The scene was in a mess, with medical personnel from the Panis Group searching for survivors on the burning "battlefield" everywhere, just like a military attack, and the news anchor described the "gang fight" that took place on the outskirts of Creedburg a few hours ago in an exaggerated tone.

It is said that the number of casualties counted by the Creedburg Sheriff's Department has exceeded thirty.

Just from the explosive scenes, Zhou Ke knew that D-4 had definitely turned on "berserk mode" in order to get him out.

"It's really troublesome for her."

He jumped off the bed, stretching his arms, and then felt a numbness in his brain. Although it did not affect his thinking, it seemed that a "switch" was forcibly blocked.

"You gave me psionic suppression?"

He looked at Weng Mingyue, who nodded and said:

"When you were sent here, your brain was abnormally active. If you had an engine in your brain, it would have been running at top speed and could explode at any time. In addition, your intracranial pressure has been maintained at a very dangerous level. I can only take the risk of injecting the inhibitor for you.

Don't worry, this inhibitor will not affect your thinking and will not have any side effects. As I said before, it will only suppress the rapid growth of the psychic organs in your brain.

By the way, you must have come into contact with the 'temptation of psychic energy', right?"

"Yes! It took the initiative to teach me some knowledge of the occult. It felt like taking drugs, which made people fall into an 'illusion of lucidity' that was difficult to extricate themselves from. I finally understand why you said that novice psychics always kill themselves. It is really difficult for ordinary people to resist the temptation of the occult with their willpower."

Zhou Ke rubbed his forehead and said:
"Even I almost got so caught up in it that I almost said, 'Great, I understand everything,' and blew my head off."

"Just be aware of where the danger is coming from."

Weng Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief. He pushed up his glasses and said:
"That kind of hallucination is the 'inner demon' that psychics must fight throughout their lives. Even after becoming Ascended, excessive immersion in psychic energy can still cause dangerous changes. Especially when the psychic storm blows, they can feel a clear call from 'another world'.

That would be a very painful torture for the individual's spirit, but the biggest risk does not just come from the changes in psychic energy in the surface environment.

You have experienced the Moon of Madness before, which is just one of the several phases of the Moon of Movement. For psychics, the most dangerous phase is called the Moon of Truth. During that phase, the Moon of Movement will turn into a very mysterious and deep dark purple.

As the concentration of psychic energy in the surface world soars, every psychic will passively receive the "gift of knowledge" from the mysterious power.

That's passive learning, Zhou Ke.

When that time comes, even if you inject inhibitors, your psychic organs will not stop growing. You will passively accumulate more and more occult knowledge, and that knowledge will actively "find" you.

Until your brain and spirit collapse at both the physical and psychological levels, your brain will be distorted and mutated, and your body will also transform into a monster.

Your spirit will be briefly pulled into another world, or even permanently separated from your body."

"Well, the Moon of Truth, I heard Uncle Ohm talk about it once. He said that it was a catastrophic moon phase for all psychics, but it is said that the probability of that moon phase occurring is very low?"

Zhou Ke asked, and Weng Mingyue nodded and said:

"It is indeed very low. In the past thirty-eight years of the Bad Lands, there have only been four recorded Moons of Truth, and the frequency is only slightly higher than the most dangerous 'Moon of Reproduction'. Every change in the Moon of Truth will lead to the death of a large number of psykers. In fact, the inhibitor you are using now was originally invented to protect psykers from surviving the Moon of Truth.

But you don't need to worry about that now.

The degree to which your psychic organs are stimulated to grow is still within a controllable range. You only need to inject inhibitors regularly to ensure safety. Moni delivered those high-grade materials an hour ago. Uh."

The doctor felt a little annoyed when talking about this matter. He sighed and said:

"When I saw the exaggerated amount of materials, I knew what you were going to do in the Creedburg Laboratory. It was a very direct way of doing things. Anyway, with this batch of materials, you, Moni, and your brothers and sisters can start strengthening their bodies without side effects.

You go and have some rest.

I will debug the machine first and prepare the base for the materials. I can perform the first phase of the enhancement surgery for you tonight."

"Wait first!"

Zhou Ke stopped Weng Mingyue. He found his coat nearby and took out the unique "heart core" from it. He handed it to Weng Mingyue and said:
"Have you ever seen anything like this?"

"What is this? It looks like a unique creation that is a mixture of some kind of biochemical technology and machinery."

This guy really knows his stuff.

He took the punctured thing and examined it carefully in his hand without feeling disgusted. After a moment, Weng Mingyue frowned and said:
"This is a 'bionic heart'. Judging from its specifications, it doesn't look like it's for human use. Did you find it in the Parnis family's laboratory?

Well, that's understandable.

This thing would be perfect as an energy core for biochemical beasts, but the structure of the embedded machinery is a bit too sophisticated. I can tell that many of its components are designed at nanoscale and are made of a rare psychic alloy.

I don’t think the engineers at Parnis Group could have built something like this.”

"This thing can manipulate time!"

Zhou Ke briefly introduced the condition of the T-894 experimental subject to Weng Mingyue. The doctor's expression was visibly shocked. After Zhou Ke finished speaking, Weng Mingyue's face had turned quite ugly.

他 说:

"Time psychic power. That is the signature power attribute of the Instant Light Organization. No other psychic masters on the surface of the world can master this rare psychic attribute except them. This must be a biological weapon experiment conducted by the Instant Light Organization and the Creedburg Laboratory.

The Panis Group has joined the Flash Organization.

This is really bad news.”

"Exactly right!"

Zhou Ke nodded and said:
"That unlucky leader of Creedburg also told me these things before his brain-computer interface blew his head off. He said that the T-894 project was a biological weapon specially prepared for exploring the inner ring of Time Labyrinth No. 11. It was a mass-produced weapons project commissioned by the Flash Organization to the Panis Group.

Unfortunately, the 'death keyword' was triggered before he could say more.

Obviously, no matter who did this "security measure", both parties obviously do not want more inside information of this news to be known by other forces. What I am curious about is, will this unexpected secret help your sister's career?"

"You'll have to ask her about that. I'm not very interested in these things nor am I good at them, but I guess there are some."

Weng Mingyue is indeed a "nerd" and is unwilling to spend even a little energy on things that he is not interested in. While studying the heart core in his hand, he said:

"Her boss, Little Acholi, is very hostile to the Shining Organization. If he knew that the Panis Group, as a director of the consortium, has cooperated with the Shining Organization to such an extent, he would definitely be furious.

I once had dinner with Mr. Acholi Jr., and I didn't feel very good about him. How should I put it? Although he looked kind and friendly, I always felt that he had a force that made me feel uncomfortable.

It's like being around friendly venomous snakes.

You know it won't bite you, but you're still worried that it might suddenly go crazy.

Because of this, I actually don’t want my sister to get more and more involved with him. It’s obvious that my sister can’t deal with little Acholi. She thinks she can control her own plans, but in my opinion, she has always been played around by little Acholi.

No matter from which angle, in my opinion, these two people are not opponents of the same level at all."

"Indeed, your sister is a typical example of someone who has great ambitions but little talent. She is also stupid and mean."

Zhou Ke nodded in agreement and said:

"She always thinks she can conquer a powerful man with her charm, but as men, we know that this is impossible unless the other person is a fool or a virgin who has never seen the world."

"Hey! That's my sister!"

Weng Mingyue shook her head helplessly and said:
"Although what you said is mostly true, could you please be a little more respectful in your words?"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I admit it. I dare not offend the doctor who is about to perform surgery on me."

Zhou Ke raised his hands in surrender and said, "Then you get ready here, I'll go talk to your sister."

"Wait a minute, there is something else I need to tell you in advance, about your psychic properties."

Weng Mingyue turned to Zhou Ke and said:
“There’s no rush for this. You have to wait until the third or fourth reinforcement to make a decision, but I suggest you spend some time to learn about this in advance so that you can be mentally prepared.

Psionics look the same in external manifestation, but in fact they still follow a very complex system of attributes.

Although in the hands of psykers they can transform the free psychic energy in the environment and in their bodies into various material forms, fire, ice or lightning are merely external manifestations of energy, but each psyker has his or her own unique properties.

For example, as I said just now, the psionicists of the Flash Organization possess the rarest time psionic power. It is said that they can peek into the timeline and protect themselves from falling into the predicament of death.

For example, I know that Tiger King's psychic attribute is 'enhancement'.

That guy can use psychic energy to continuously enhance his physical strength almost unlimitedly. This is his unique talent and the main reason why he can become the first sublimator in the surface world.

You have to be clear about your psychic attributes like them, so that after your container strength reaches the standard, you can control and master the growth of your psychic power as quickly as possible.

Only by identifying your core of strength can you master it."

"Ah? Isn't my psychic attribute 'Mask'?"

Zhou Ke said:
"This is also my unique talent. At least I have never heard of any psionicist in the Bad Land who can do the same thing as me."

"No, the generative mask is just an external manifestation!"

Weng Mingyue shook her head seriously and corrected:
“You just said that you destroyed your mask to enchant the psychic weapon. This is enough to prove that you can use psychic power in many ways, and your mask can also be used in different ways. Therefore, I can conclude that the mask is not your psychic attribute. You need to readjust your cognition.

It's just your unique technique and way of using psionic powers."

"Well, now that you put it that way, I do understand a little bit."

Zhou Ke rolled his eyes, and after a few seconds of thinking, he said to Weng Mingyue:
"Okay, I admit that I have been hiding something from you. Next I am going to show you my second talent. I hope you will not be scared."

"Huh? You have a second talent? Dual talents! Is that so awesome?"

Weng Mingyue was also shocked.

He had been practicing medicine for more than ten years but had never heard of any psychic having a second talent. But when Zhou Ke demonstrated his second ability, Weng Mingyue realized that he was too shocked too early.

He saw with his own eyes that Zhou Ke's shadow was abnormally distorted under the light, and then it changed into the shadow warriors of Old Merck and Uncle Ohm, guarding Zhou Ke on the left and right. This scene made Weng Mingyue drop his jaw in shock, and even made him show uncontrollable fear in his eyes.

he screamed:

"You! You captured their souls?"

"Uh, it's just a psychic talent. Why does it sound so evil when you say it?"

Zhou Ke stretched out his hand and shook it, causing the two shadow warriors to jump up and down "Subject Three" in a stiff posture on the spot, which quickly diluted the "horror effect" of this scene.

He explained to Weng Mingyue:

“They are just shadows, without intelligence. They passively follow orders and have extremely poor combat capabilities. They can only be used as surprise troops. However, Wu Neng guesses that these shadow warriors will improve as my abilities improve.

If I must say, I think the formation of these two shadows is related to the illusions I always see. Have I told you about my illusions? "

"You didn't say it. Tell me, I'm listening."

Weng Mingyue pushed up his glasses and circled around the two shadow warriors with a curious look on his face. He even poked them with his hand. As Zhou Ke said, the shadow warriors had substance but were not tough.

Zhou Ke briefly told Weng Mingyue, his "personal doctor", about the three illusions he had seen, and emphasized:

"The only thing Old Merck and Uncle Ohm had in common was that they both experienced the same vision as me before they died. I am sure they saw the pale corona of light. In my vision, I could also see the figures of these two people occasionally appearing at the edge of the pale corona, just for a moment.

But I confirmed that I was not mistaken.

So I guess the three illusions I saw are probably the source of my power, and capturing and shaping shadow warriors is the ability given to me by the Pale Light Crown.

And through old Merck's experience, I can roughly judge that the pale light corona symbolizes the 'end'."

"The 'end' that the Tiger State warriors believe in?"

Weng Mingyue knew quite a lot. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said:
“Isn’t that a complete cult belief?”

"What they believe is not the same as what I know, but what is certain is that the symbol of power, the End, does exist."

Zhou Ke explained with a pained look on his face:
"I am now confused about these mystical things, and I need a guy who is proficient in this field to help me solve my doubts."

After saying this, he looked at Weng Mingyue with anticipation, as if expecting the other party to take out a magic wand from somewhere and explain to him the mystery of this psychic power.

But the latter is clearly not as versatile.

He rubbed his forehead and said:
"I know nothing about mysticism. I'm a doctor, not a wizard. But if you really want to analyze the meaning of your visions, I can recommend someone to you.

He is not my friend nor a psychic, but he is really good at these mysterious things, and he is a trustworthy person, and he has a good personal relationship with my sister.
Don't show that shameless expression! Zhou Ke.

It’s not the kind of relationship you think. My sister is not as casual as you think!

That man was my sister's art tutor, but he left Acholi Consortium College a few years ago. You may have heard of him.

Director Mulan

"Ah, I know that guy!"

Zhou Ke snorted and said:
"He made a crappy movie with me and Ajie as the protagonists, but he didn't pay us the copyright fee. It's a good opportunity to ask for it. But can this psychic attribute you mentioned be changed?"

"no!"

Weng Mingyue said seriously:
"Every psionicist's psionic attributes are determined at birth. Although many psionicists claim that there is no high or low level of talent, in fact, we all know that some psionicists are more talented than ordinary psionicists.

The most typical example is Wu Qinhu.

He is the strongest person who has been created by his innate talent, hard work and scientific assistance. These three conditions are indispensable for his current status. "

"Huh, so this is another game of looking at one's face, right?"

Zhou Ke said sarcastically:

“This world is really not kind enough to unlucky people. Luckily, I’m quite talented in drawing cards, so at least I won’t get the guaranteed prize every time.

Fine.

I'll take some time to think about this matter. If you're free, you can help me study it. For things like this, it always helps to have an extra brain.

I'm going to find your sister, you stay here and get ready."

"Zhou Ke."

When Weng Mingyue saw Zhou Ke leaving with the broken heart core, he hesitated for a moment and called him. Zhou Ke turned around and looked at him, and heard Weng Mingyue say:
"Um. If possible, can you help my sister?"

"Does she still need help?"

Zhou Ke said puzzledly:

"Weng Meiyu is now the 'favored concubine' of the Archon on the surface. Before she fell out of favor, she was second only to the emperor and above everyone else. How can I, a wanted criminal from the Evil Land, not be on the same level as her?

Have you misjudged your sister's influence, or have you misunderstood my abilities?"

"I didn't make a wrong estimate, and you didn't make a wrong estimate either."

Weng Mingyue sighed:

“Her current wealth and glory are all based on the favor of Mr. Acholi, but as you said just now, a man will not hang himself on a tree, and she will eventually fall into poverty one day.

My sister knows this too and she tries to change, but she's really not good at it.

And you’re good at it!
If we are already partners who need to help each other, then please pay more attention to my sister's affairs. I'll tell you the truth, ever since I narrowly escaped from the accident ten years ago, I have no interest in regaining the position of head of the Weng family.

I just want to be a doctor who cures illnesses and saves lives, but my sister has come to this point and there is no way for her to turn back.

She needs a powerful think tank.

There is no one better than you here.

Therefore, I will try my best to help you complete the best enhancement, and please help her."

"To be honest, your sister's personality is not very likable, she just needs to be disciplined! But for your sake, I will consider it. This is not perfunctory to you. As I said just now, no one with a normal mind would want to offend his or her personal doctor.

I'll take this job, and please do your job well. I wish you a pleasant cooperation. "
