Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Kelsey briefly explained who Loken was to the two of them, "Loken Williams is a talented scientist in Colombia. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for illegal human experiments, and his experimental data also fell into the trap. It’s in the hands of a lot of people.”

Kelsey nodded, basically all of this information was mentioned on the phone.

But Li Ang didn't care who William Loken was, not to mention that man was still a prisoner in custody.

"So, what is this thing for?"

"Loken's original purpose was to artificially create infected organs that would not spread ore disease and could be safely implanted into the human body, to replace traditional surgical units, and even allow people with adaptability deficiencies in Originium skills to be able to Use Source Stone technology. The sample you brought was made using the technology he left behind."

"Blood?" Li Ang guessed.

"That should be right." Kelsey nodded.

If everything in the human body were regarded as replaceable organs, then blood and skin would be the two largest ones.

And if you only replace a part of it, the risk will not be as great as replacing other organs. A lack of blood or a few pieces of skin will not cause death.

"But... didn't you say that the same substance was not extracted from the blood of those prisoners?"

If Loken wanted to use this kind of thing to replace the traditional spell-casting unit, would the spell-casting unit disappear on its own if left alone?

Anyway, Li Ang has never seen anything similar.

"That's why I said, only part of it is similar, but more parts have become different."

Chapter 39

"Isn't it some kind of hallucinogen?"

Adele was very puzzled.

Although Kelsey was very certain, if it weren't for hallucinogens, the riots would be unexplainable.

Time was limited and the number of samples was very small. Kelsey could only analyze so many, which were quite different from the original samples they had.

"I have here a record of Lorcan Williams' speech after returning to his alma mater. If you are interested, you can take a look."

With that said, Kelsey sent a video file to their terminals.

After thinking about it, Li Ang opened the video and looked with Adele to see what Kelsey wanted to express to him.

Perhaps because the shooting took place some time ago, the video footage is not particularly clear. You can see a middle-aged Liboli man in a suit standing on the podium, speaking loudly. When it comes to the key point, he He would also wave his arms excitedly, and his excitement made people worried that he would suddenly die here.

With two clicks on the terminal, the voice of Lorcan Williams' impassioned speech could be heard throughout the office.

"...What if there is a safe, artificially implantable surgical unit?"

"Just like a person who was in a car accident used prosthetic limbs to run again, and a person who was born blind gained sight by transplanting someone else's cornea, people with defects in the ability to use Originium skills can also have the energy to change everything."

Interestingly, Loken also mentioned the tower warlocks of Leitania in his speech. His source of inspiration was the horrifying rumors that the tower warlocks used infected people as spellcasting units.

In fact, that's not a rumor. Tower warlocks really like to do this. It's not a patent of the Witch King. It's just that the electors of Leitania were afraid of the Witch King's strength and conveniently put this shit basin in the Witch King's hands. It’s just on the king.

Because apart from scaring people, it is difficult to say that infected people are more suitable for releasing Originium skills than the staffs produced by professional workshops.

In the video, Loken's speech continues.

For a researcher like him, accepting an invitation from his alma mater to give a lecture is a rare opportunity. Not only can he spread his reputation, but he can also attract some students who are about to graduate.

Therefore, Loken always has to come up with something useful.

In Loken's theory, the function of the spell-casting unit is to receive and encode the neural activity of the caster, and release different forms of energy to the outside. The source stone can be used as a spell-casting unit because it naturally has complex internal Energy conversion circuit, and can also receive nerve signals from the operator.

The so-called adaptability of Origin Stone skills is the 'strength of nerve impulses'.

For those who have defects in the adaptability of Origin Stone skills, according to Loken's theory, it is because the signal strength is not enough, or due to other reasons it cannot be received and re-encoded by the magic unit.

Because not all Source Stone artifacts can be used as magic units, there are very significant individual differences between these 'decoders'.

What Loken wants to do is to artificially create a decoder that only uses the Source Stone as an energy conversion circuit. This can solve the 'Origin Stone skill adaptability defect' caused by the decoding problem.

Of course, this is the ultimate form of Loken's theory, and it is only theoretically feasible. His current research is still on how to imitate infected people and safely and harmlessly implant the operating unit made of Source Stone into the human body.

"It always sounds useless." Li Ang touched his chin and said.

Li Ang thought it was something powerful, but it turned out...that's it?

Liquid surgical unit?It can be stored inside the body as part of the blood composition.

But if you think about it carefully, isn't this essentially a magic unit that can be carried around and cannot be taken away in any way?

Can similar effects be achieved by using convenient and portable surgical units such as bracelets and necklaces?Don’t have to suffer the consequences of this dangerous surgery yet.

Any foreign body implanted into the human body will bring some risks, not to mention that the blood will carry this foreign body through the body. If the blood-brain barrier is also breached, the risks brought by this kind of surgery are absolutely unpredictable.

"The actual effect shouldn't be very good, right? If it's really as powerful as he boasts, he should be treated as a guest of some company now, instead of being locked up in prison."

Terra is not a peaceful world. The experimental ethics code... Although it exists, it is more like a useful brick. It can be moved wherever it is needed. Don't expect this code to really control people.

The reason why Lorcan Williams was sentenced to life imprisonment for this crime is more likely because he was powerless and after offending some people, he was thrown into prison for a random reason.

Of course, it is also possible that someone is eyeing his research results. Such things are not uncommon in reality or in literary and artistic works.

"...In fact, Loken's experiment has been successful."

Kelsey raised her eyebrows and said, "Although his experiment once again set a new ethical limit for scientific research, it is undeniable that Loken did create an artificial infection organ."

"Being treated as a guest... If his experiment has not been exposed, it is indeed possible, but now that his evil deeds are known to everyone, he must be dealt with even if the financial backer behind him is not willing. "

"They must at least abide by Colombia's apparent order, and the Melander Foundation has contributed a lot in this process."

"The order on the surface...ha." Li Ang laughed disdainfully.

It's just the last fig leaf. So what if he's sentenced to life imprisonment?Can’t we continue doing research while in prison?If Loken was still valuable, they could build a special laboratory for him in prison.

With Colombia's extremely flexible moral bottom line, it is entirely possible for them to do so.

After that, Kelsey stopped mentioning Loken and his experiment. She just wanted to tell Leon about the prototype of this unknown liquid, and had no intention of discussing Loken's experiment in depth.

After clicking twice on the terminal in her hand and confirming a certain piece of information, Kelsey said to the two of them, "Okay, Rosemary's treatment is over. Come with me."

After saying that, Kelsey stood up and prepared to take the two of them to the medical department to visit the poor child.

Rosemary...is that the child's code name?People who cannot face their memories eventually become brave. The story behind this name is not a good one...

At least that's what Li Ang thinks. Amnesia itself is a very unfortunate thing.

Chapter 39 What the hell is that?

Li Ang and Adele followed Kelsey to the medical department of Rhode Island.

Although the organization Rhode Island has various subtle problems and is even more like an illegal armed organization, at least in name, Rhode Island is a medical organization that provides medical services to infected people.

The medical department is the largest department in the entire Rhode Island, occupying one-fifth of the volume of the huge land speeder Rhode Island.

Li Ang had stayed in this place for a while before and knew the place fairly well.

No matter what time of the day, Rhode Island's medical department is always so busy, with uniformed medical operators running back and forth in various cabins, and from time to time seriously ill infected patients are pushed into the emergency room.

However, Li Ang noticed that the atmosphere in the medical department today was a little different from before. The frequency of senior medical operators appearing was several times higher than before. In the few minutes he walked over, Li Ang saw several senior medical officers with tired faces. Medical operator.

Is it because of that 'Rosemary' treatment?

Kelsey really valued that child... Li Ang even saw a sluggish Warfarin.

But the blood demon doctor looked like she might die suddenly at any time, so Li Ang didn't bother her.

"Speaking of Dr. Kelsey, why do you want me to meet the child named Rosemary?" Li Ang asked casually.

If you just introduce him to the research on Loken, there is no need to go to such trouble.

His intuition told him that Kelsey should have other purposes.

Hearing this question, Kelsey's steps stopped. Li Ang was right, she did have some other ideas.

After thinking about it for less than half a second, Kelsey admitted frankly, "I want to ask you to help confirm the child's status."

"Lorken transformed her brainstem into an infection organ, which resulted in some special changes in Rosemary that could not be detected by ordinary instruments."

"I remember you mentioned that you have a special observation ability, and you might be able to discover her condition."

"Is that so? That's no problem." Li Ang nodded thoughtfully.

No matter, it was just a look anyway, and Kelsey didn't ask him to produce any results.

For Li Ang, who owed Kelsey a favor, he didn't mind doing such a small favor.

Moreover, what Kelsi said just now also aroused Li Ang's interest.

"Then please."

Hearing that Li Ang agreed, Kelsey secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Rosemary's ward is over here."

Before following Kelsi into the ward, Li Ang subconsciously took out his phone and took a look, and then he noticed the series of missed calls and text messages.

All calls were from Xintrea... Could it be that something unexpected happened at the company?

Li Ang frowned and opened the text messages one by one. After reading these text messages, Li Ang also had a certain understanding of what had happened in the company before.

The cooperation between Rhein-Life and Ball Pharmaceuticals...actually there is such a contract?As the director of the Energy Department, Ferdinand's trip was specifically to recover relevant research data.

"Tsk."

Thinking of this, Li Ang couldn't help but smacked his lips.

Things seem to be getting interesting. The most suspicious Rhine life actually appeared at the beginning. Shouldn't they have been hiding behind the scenes?Why did he just run out openly?Rhine Lifestyle's approach caught Li Ang off guard.

The previous cooperation between Rhein-Life and Ball Pharmaceuticals is most likely real. After all, Director A himself is not a good person, and human experiments do not have any psychological burden on him at all.

Although it is unclear what Ayin and Rhine Life did in connection with each other, that part of the research data must have been stored in the destroyed Plot 21.

According to the contract, they really need to hand over this data to Rheinland Life, otherwise they will have to pay huge liquidated damages.

Now Ball Pharmaceuticals has just recovered part of its vitality, and the development of plot zero has just begun. The funds invested in advance have not yet begun to return. If Rheinland Life claims compensation at this critical moment, Ball Pharmaceuticals will definitely suffer a heavy blow. The worst thing about the blow is that the capital chain is broken.

Therefore, Li Ang will hand over the data to them, but this does not prevent him from doing some tricks in the process.

"There are still not enough manpower..." Li Ang thought silently.

Xinteleia is already busy enough, and Leon is a little embarrassed to arrange more work for her. It seems that he can only wait for Rhodes Island to finish his work, and then go there himself.

However, there is no need to worry just yet.

The fishing plan on Shuiyue's side has just begun, and there is no movement on Sona's side for the time being. The so-called Radom Association is still hidden in that nook and corner, and Li Ang has enough time to solve these problems.

Moreover, even if Lot 21 has been turned into ruins, that place is not easily accessible.

The invasion of natural disasters left serious source stone pollution there, and a real source stone life once appeared there. A few months was not enough for the pollution there to dissipate.

Even if you wear the most advanced protective clothing, you will not be able to spend more than two hours in such a place. Before the pollution there fades, even if Rheinland Life wants to take out the data from there, it will still take a lot of trouble.

After thinking for a moment, Li Ang sent a reply to Xintera, telling her that she didn't have to do anything more, just be passive and slow down.

At this time, Kelsi also noticed Li Ang stopping at the door of the ward.

She frowned and asked, "What happened?"

Hearing Kelsi's question, Li Ang put his phone back into his pocket and said casually, "Unexpected news. My secretary just contacted me and said that someone from Rhine Life is here."

"This is Ferdinand, the director of the energy department. They have cooperated with Bol Pharmaceuticals before. This time they are here to ask me to fulfill the agreement and hand over some research data to them."

"...It's really them."

Kelsey held her forehead and sighed.

She is not an idiot. She knows very well what it means for Rhine Life to appear here, not to mention that this time it is a director.

"Okay, I have a plan for Rhine Life. You don't have to worry too much. Let's go back to the previous topic now."

Hearing this, Kelsey nodded.

Although Rhine Life is a tricky business, it has no direct conflict with Rhode Island itself. The two of them have had many pleasant cooperation experiences.

"Is she Rosemary?"

Li Ang saw the film girl in the ward.

When he heard someone calling his name, the young Feilin cast a slightly confused look at him.

No... it shouldn't be said to be blank, but pure blankness. There was nothing in the girl's eyes, just like a doll. The empty gaze made everyone who saw it feel heartbroken.

Amnesia caused by foreign objects implanted in the brain...

"Okay, now let me use my senses and see what I can find."
