I am the only one who can do it: I think I am really going to become an immortal

Recently... I haven't contacted my family much.

The sudden physical changes made him busy all the time.

However, it must be said that he also has time to play games despite his busy schedule, and it is indeed a bit negligent that he has not contacted his family regularly.

"Mom, I recently started a new book, so I've been busy day and night to update it."

Chen Yun was silent for a moment and told this half-true and half-false lie.

He is indeed reading a new book recently, but what really keeps him busy day and night is not this matter.

He thought for a moment and decided to lie.

You can't tell your family about the changes in your body, or to be more precise, you can't tell anyone else.

At least before you become truly invincible, it’s better for only you to know this matter.

"Don't be too busy. Make sure you get enough rest and eat well. Do you have enough money?"

The mother continued with some concern.

His words were still full of concern for his son.

"Don't worry, mom. I'm your son, a great writer. I'm not short of money. I told you I would become a famous writer!"

"You still don't believe me."

Chen Yun smiled and repeated the words he had said when his mother asked him why he resigned.

Now his mother no longer forces him to find a so-called stable and proper job.

But I still care about how he is doing in the online literature industry and whether he can make enough food.

that's it.

The two people who hadn't chatted for a long time talked for a long time.

From his recent life situation, to whether his mother supervised the workers at home to complete the renovation. From his occasional troubles with writing, to the troubles of his father living alone with his younger brother at home...

They talked for a long time before hanging up the phone.

Looking at the time that was almost one o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Yun sat in the chair and pondered for a long time.

After he evolves one or two more times...

Just go home and take a look.

Although it had been less than a month since they parted after the Chinese New Year, Chen Yun, whose health had undergone tremendous changes, felt that a long time had passed when he recalled it now.

Chapter 73 Towards rationality?

2 p.m.

Chen Yun got off the subway and followed the navigation to exit from Exit B of Huaxiba subway station.

Next we have to walk about 800 meters.

Not far away is Shucheng West China Hospital, one of the top tertiary hospitals in Shucheng. Next door is the famous key university, Sichuan University West China Campus.

After a long-awaited phone call with his mother, Chen Yun saw that it was almost one o'clock, so he came to this top-ranked hospital in Shu City as planned in Short-term Plan 4.0.

If for no other reason, it's mainly to see whether such a thing as the soul actually exists.

While lighting a bonfire and watching the rain in the cave in Laojun Mountain, his thoughts couldn't help but wander to the question of whether the soul exists.

While at Laojun Mountain, he also tried to sense the existence of souls in corpses, but in the end he sensed nothing.

But the conditions at that time were really limited.

There weren't enough bodies, and they had been dead for too long.

Just relying on such a small sample observation.

Chen Yun was unable to come to the conclusion that there was really no soul in the world, or that his current mental power was unable to perceive the soul.

To maintain a rigorous attitude, he needs to conduct more observations and take into account enough variables.

Of course, Chen Yun was very skeptical about whether this trip would produce any results.

After all, people are not dying in hospitals all the time.

Even if on average several people die in each hospital every day, the mean does not explain the problem because the sample dispersion is too high.

What province, what city, what level of tertiary hospital, what medical status, what departments are good at...

These issues affect the daily death toll of a tertiary hospital, and indirectly affect Chen Yun's observation of whether the soul is born after death.

So today's travel plan includes not only the West China Hospital, but also several other nearby tertiary hospitals, as well as some nursing homes where the mortality rate may be higher than that of the hospital.

He will increase the number of samples as much as possible to ensure that the death of the individual is actually sensed.

Thinking.

Chen Yun walked out of the subway station and followed the navigation to walk west for about 800 meters, and the hospital gate appeared in front of him.

The hospital covers an area of ​​more than 80 acres, which is obviously not something that Chen Yun can see clearly at once with his current spiritual perception range of only about meters.

Moreover, there are some places where outsiders cannot enter at will.

However, the perception range of eighty meters is not small. If it is planned reasonably, it is still possible to see an area of ​​500 acres.

While thinking, Chen Yun planned a route for himself based on the approximate map displayed on the navigation.

He only needs to walk along Huanxin Lane, Limin Lane, Telecom Road and Gongxing Road.

You can probably walk around the first, second, third, fourth, fifth inpatient departments, the emergency department, and the infectious disease inpatient department.

Thinking of this, Chen Yun quickly took action.

Under such planned actions, the 500-acre hospital was divided into several small pieces.

Chen Yun's detection range of 80 meters is now put to use. By shuttling back and forth, he has basically brought most areas of the hospital under surveillance.

It is impossible to see the entire area at once, but if you divide it into several small areas and then sense along their edges, a range of eighty meters will be enough.

Before long, Chen Yun finished the planned route.

The general situation of the entire hospital is clearly understood.

But Chen Yun's expression suddenly became too calm.

The fact that I didn't sense the existence of the soul, as expected, was secondary.

The reason for being calm is that I have seen so much along the way.

The walls of the hospital have heard the most prayers.

It carries the patients, their families and medical staff's awe of life, desire for health, hope for miracles, and resilience and acceptance of suffering.

The prayers here are more sincere than anywhere else.

Chen Yun's ability to perceive emotions also made him feel different emotions here than usual.

Doctors’ pressure, responsibility and fatigue, patients’ fear, anxiety and helplessness… these emotions are stronger than ever before.

it's here.

The sufferings of the world are magnified, and the most profound and embarrassing emotions are released.

All of this was seen clearly by Chen Yun, who was using his perception to search for the soul.

This made Chen Yun, who had just finished walking along the scheduled route, stand at the entrance of the hospital in silence and fall into thought.

When he sensed all this.

At first I couldn't help feeling a little sad, but then I felt a coolness in my mind, and all the sadness became blurred.

The sadness did not disappear, but was suppressed by a stronger emotion.

That emotion is called reason.

This almost instantly calmed Chen Yun down.

And it seemed a little too calm.

However, in this state, he felt that the Transparent World 3.0 seemed to be able to perceive other things more clearly.

Chen Yun understood.

My current mental state is very strange, and I seem to have lost a lot of empathy. It's as if I have already considered myself superior and completely separated from the human species.

But if you feel it carefully, you will find that this is not the case.

The ability to empathize actually still exists, and I can feel and understand the negative emotions that arise from those sincere prayers and sufferings.

There was just no further reaction, as if he didn't care at all.

This is because his empathy is controlled by his own reason.

His powerful rationality was calming down all his fluctuating emotions at this moment, allowing him to enter a state of absolute calm and indifference.

Not pleased, not to have compassion.

When dealing with those cultists in Laojun Mountain, he found it difficult for him to feel emotional because of the loss of lives.

He once thought that he was indifferent and rational enough to his enemies, but now he found that this rationality existed all the time.

As long as his emotions have the slightest chance of affecting his judgment, he will immediately become rational.

This also seems to be a new ability brought by the fourth dormant evolution.

This is undoubtedly the most correct and reasonable mechanism. It does not absolutely stifle personal emotions, but only helps maintain rationality at all times to avoid impulsiveness.

Just like Saitama in One Punch Man.

His character is not as dull and naive, but his indifference is almost the same, with a bit of pleasure in revenge.

It’s like his upgraded personality after he used to stay at home and got rid of some of his extreme emotions. It’s not perfect but Chen Yun doesn’t hate it either.

Rational, yet decisive.

It's plain, but there's also the satisfaction of revenge.

Such a personality seems contradictory.

But if you think about it carefully, there is no one in the world whose personality is not contradictory.

Personality is diverse and layered, with strong situational dependency and dynamic changes depending on the situation.

Everyone is like this, living their lives in entanglement.

Thinking of this, Chen Yun shook his head helplessly.

In general, he feels that the current character, in which reason is the central regulator and personal emotions are not extinguished, is reasonable and acceptable.

The personality he had to uphold still existed.

Thinking about it, Chen Yun stopped thinking about it.

Open the evil map navigation and continue looking for the next target.

The soul was not found in West China Hospital, so we need to try other hospitals and nursing homes.

Chapter 74 It seems that there is no soul

Seven o'clock in the evening.

It's almost the time when day turns to night.

According to Kyoto time, the sun sets at 6:00 during the Spring Equinox and it gets dark at 6:30.

However, in Shu, which is located much further west, the journey was about forty minutes slower, so it was not completely dark yet.

The sun had just set and was still releasing its last ray of light far away in the sky, shining a few flashes of light on the clouds.

The sky seems to be a gradient canvas carefully painted by nature's colorist.

The bright blue of the day gradually fades away. Near the horizon, the afterglow of the setting sun still stubbornly resists the erosion of darkness, dyeing the sky warm orange or golden. These colors interweave together, like a flame burning in the sky, and like a ribbon slowly spreading out.

Chen Yun, who had just returned home, sat on the sofa, the afterglow of the setting sun shining on him.
