Honkai Impact 3: Saving the former civilization by rubbing the black technology

However, before it could truly possess the specific appearance of a human being, the floating island collapsed and disintegrated once again, and eventually disappeared along with the human figure.

Chapter 9 Listen to what you say. Are you talking like a human being?

Ai Yue naturally had no idea what was happening in the false domination domain. At this moment, he had already crawled out of the device and began to think about whether to dismantle it and make it into something else.

"Dr. Ai Yue, something strange happened."

At this moment, Prometheus' voice suddenly rang out, "The Domination Domain collapsed approximately five seconds later than expected."

"late?"

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment, "Can you trace the source and find out the cause?"

"Not yet. It will take some time to calibrate and troubleshoot the equipment."

Prometheus said, "We are currently unable to determine which link has caused the problem, so self-troubleshooting will take at least 12 hours."

"Strange, theoretically this shouldn't happen."

Ai Yue pondered for a moment, then froze, "Unless, unless it received new energy support before it collapsed?"

Maintaining the domain of domination requires enormous amounts of energy every second. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for humans to restore its full appearance. Therefore, the energy consumed by maintaining it for five more seconds is enough to be equivalent to the total energy consumption of a medium-sized city in 24 hours.

This energy couldn't possibly appear out of thin air. Could it be that it really connected to the Cocoon of the End in the end?

But if it is really connected to the Cocoon of the End, it is impossible for it to last for such a short time.

"The energy expenditure of dominating a domain is proportional to its size."

"If it's not an instantaneous collapse, but a gradual one, then the continued shrinking size could potentially extend its duration," Prometheus said.

"In short, you check first,"

Ai Yue pushed his glasses and saw the new information on them, so he waved his hand and said, "Report to me immediately if you encounter any problems."

"understood."

Prometheus responded, "So, demolition plans?"

"Let's postpone it for now."

Ai Yue said casually, and added, "But to be on the safe side, it's better to remove all the Herrscher cores."

After saying this, he left the laboratory, leaving Prometheus to control the mechanical arm extending from the ceiling and start the separation of the Herrscher core.

The reason why Ai Yue was in a hurry to leave was naturally because his experimental partner... was already waiting for him.

In the laboratory hall where the portal was placed, a young man also in a white coat was looking around curiously. Although Ai Yue was still far away from him, the other party had already keenly sensed his approach, then turned around and took the initiative to greet him.

"Long time no see, Dr. Ai Yue."

Su from the Fifth Research Institute smiled and said, "Is the recent research going well?"

"It's okay. Although it's a bit slow, at least it didn't get stuck."

Ai Yue pushed up his glasses, and the equipment beside him immediately started to work. "What about you?"

"It's a small breakthrough. The cost of Honkai disease antibodies has dropped by 5%."

Su introduced, "Our next step is to try to extract the active ingredients directly from the Honkai beasts, but the equipment we have is not precise enough. We can only send our request to Minister Wei Weiwei and see when she has time to help us upgrade the equipment."

"Wei Weiwei probably hasn't been free lately. I've already occupied all her time."

Ai Yue shook his head slightly. "Send me your request later and I'll see how I can solve it for you."

"Is this... okay?"

Su said with some surprise, "Dr. Ai Yue, your time is more valuable, right?"

Ever since he witnessed Ai Yue's abilities, Su placed him in a position that ordinary people could hardly imagine. In his eyes, every matter Ai Yue had to deal with was related to the life and death of mankind, and obviously should not be wasted on such insignificant details.

After all, the other party has already solved the most critical issue. If they still need to worry about the remaining optimization issues, wouldn’t it make them seem useless?

"It doesn't matter, it won't take long anyway."

Ai Yue waved his hand, signaling the other party not to worry, "Speaking of which, how is your teacher now?"

Spasi, the former minister of the Fifth Science Department, resigned from his post after Ai Yue successfully developed an artificially synthesized Honkai energy antibody and went to the medical front to treat ordinary people suffering from Honkai disease. Now, several months have passed, and no one knows how he is doing.

"The teacher is...very happy now."

Su considered his words carefully and finally said, "For him, being able to see patients recover is obviously much better than being idle in the laboratory. He feels a lot younger now."

"It's a bit too much to be idle,"

Ai Yue shook his head, clearly disagreeing with Su's words, "Minister Spasi's contribution to the Honkai disease antibodies cannot be ignored."

"These are the teacher's original words,"

Su couldn't help but look at Ai Yue with a strange expression, thinking, who do you think the teacher said that because of? "Let's not talk about that. Dr. Ai Yue asked me to come here today. Does he need my help to test some new technology?"

Due to the strong shock he had experienced, he really didn't want to recall the incident.

When Ai Yue contacted him before, he had already explained the situation in advance, so Su was prepared for what happened today.

"Well, about the power of domination... never mind, the name isn't important."

Ai Yue found that he couldn't quite remember the full name of the proposal, so he gave up explaining, "In short, it's just a preliminary experiment. You are the most suitable candidate at the moment."

Currently, there are actually only four people who are qualified and can participate in the technical test. Among them, Aponya's ability is too dangerous and was directly excluded by Ai Yue from the beginning. Wei Erwei's ability is not transferable and has extremely low value in actual combat, so she was also excluded.

In the end, only Desdobia and Su were left. Considering that ordinary warriors actually need protective measures rather than offensive means in battle, Ai Yue finally chose Su, who could counter the enemy's attacks, instead of Desdobia.

After all, telekinesis requires a certain amount of training to be used well, but Su's ability is more like a passive protection in a sense. In the test model pre-constructed by Ai Yue, it is a useful ability that can exert its full effect as soon as it is obtained, so it is naturally not to be missed.

Of course, before that, preliminary experiments are needed to see if Su can get used to the feeling of his consciousness being extended and stretched.

At least Ai Yue was not very good at it. He almost vomited when he tried it for the first time.

The reason why I didn't choose Aponiya was that I didn't want her to suffer this pain - as for Su, we are all men, so what if we suffer a little and get tired!

Chapter 10: Human aesthetics is still too low.

Facts have proven that the physical fitness of a psychic-perception fusion warrior is indeed incomparable to that of an ordinary person.

Until the initial equipment compatibility debugging was completed, when Su took off the helmet-style sensing equipment, his face was still calm, and there was even a hint of doubt.

"it's over?"

Looking at Ai Yue, who was staring at him with subtle eyes not far away, Su asked, "I didn't feel the conditions you described, Dr. Ai Yue... But having your mind extended is indeed a very wonderful experience."

"It's over. Everything is normal. Maybe even a little too normal."

Ai Yue gritted his teeth slightly, but then put the feeling aside. "What exactly does it feel like? Describe it in detail."

"It's really hard to express in words,"

Su said with some hesitation, "How should I describe it? It's like I feel like I've grown bigger."

"Oh, that's a normal reaction,"

Ai Yue pushed up his glasses. "Current research shows that the mind and body are closely connected, and the influence of the mind will be reflected in the body. It's normal to have this kind of illusion. Besides that, you don't have a headache or a sense of being torn apart, right?"

"That's not true."

Su shook his head. "And I feel like it can be extended even further."

"Of course, but this technology is still in the experimental stage. It's still unclear whether long-term use or extreme power will have adverse effects on the human body, so we won't be conducting experiments for the time being."

Ai Yue snapped his fingers, and soon a drone flew over with a glass of water. "Drink some honey water. We'll have to do some interactive testing after everyone gathers."

"Thank you."

Su took the cup and said subconsciously, then his attention was drawn to Ai Yue's words, "Interactive test, does it mean sharing my mental power with others?"

"Almost, but sharing isn't the right word,"

Ai Yue nodded, still working on his computer. "Strictly speaking, it's about connecting them with your spirit. It's not so much about sharing your spiritual power as it is about temporarily assimilating others to your spiritual power."

"That way, we'll be considered as a whole, and my abilities can be applied to others, right?"

Su was indeed a top student in the medical field and understood this matter very quickly. "I see, this is how the Ruler's power is used. You are indeed Dr. Ai Yue."

Su was not surprised that Ai Yue was able to develop the corresponding technology based on the power of the Ruler of Domination in such a short time. He even suspected that Ai Yue had already iterated it several times, otherwise he might have been able to bring out this technology earlier.

After all, the scholars of the Fire Moth are very clear that there is probably no problem in this world that Dr. Ai Yue cannot solve. If there is, it must be that there is something wrong with the problem itself.

"Okay, they're here too."

Ai Yue received Quinn's message and then directed the drone to load the relevant equipment and fly outside. "Let's go, let's go directly to the actual combat test."

"Actual combat as soon as you come in?"

Su was stunned for a moment, "Shouldn't we do a safer test first?"

"A real-world test is already safe. After all, there are weak Honkai beasts everywhere in Australia."

Ai Yue patted the drone hovering beside him and said, "Or are you planning to fight my drone? There are no weak ones among them."

"I see,"

Looking at the ferocious weapons sticking out of the drone, Su nodded, "Let's have a real fight."

Anyway, given the other party's personality, no one will be hurt even if the experiment fails.

When the two arrived at the door with their equipment, Kosmo was already waiting there with a team of fifty fusion warriors. Seeing them come out, Kosmo took the initiative to approach them: "Dr. Ai Yue, everyone is here."

"Understood,"

Ai Yue nodded and said, "Just let them come up in order to receive their equipment."

Under the simple and efficient process, all the equipment was quickly distributed to everyone - it was a helmet that looked nothing special. From the surface, it was impossible to tell that it contained high-tech equipment. It was even no different from the ordinary standard protective helmets issued by the Fire Moth.

"Because it's using the mold of a standard helmet. After all, it's just an experiment, and Rose doesn't want to design the shape."

Facing Kosmo's question, Ai Yue shrugged, "Su, are you ready?"

Su on the side was also fully armed at the moment. He looked like he was placed in a vertical coffin and suspended in mid-air. There was only a window covered with transparent glass at the position of his head, allowing him to directly observe the situation outside. Obviously, this device was developed as battlefield protective equipment specifically for psychic-perception fusion warriors who needed to go to the battlefield.

Although it does look a bit ugly, the materials used are the same as the armor used by Kevin and his team. It also has the function of flexible movement, can withstand resistance and run, and can definitely ensure the safety of the user.

Hearing Ai Yue's voice, Su nodded and said, "I'm ready... But Dr. Ai Yue, are you sure this shape is only used in the experimental stage?"

Although he was ready to go to the battlefield, he obviously did not want to go to the battlefield lying in a coffin.

"Don't worry, this is just a temporary transitional product. We'll make it look cooler when it's officially produced."

Ai Yue waved his hand and said, "Just make do with it, okay?"

Now that things have come to this, Su Ziran couldn't say anything more.

As the "pseudo-dominant network" was activated, everyone was instantly connected together by the mental network stimulated by the helmet. After just a few seconds, the green light symbolizing the completion of the connection lit up.

"Connection complete,"

Ai Yue nodded. "Does anyone feel anything unusual? Tell us about any subtle physical or mental changes."

However, the fifty soldiers looked at each other and shook their heads in unison. It was obvious that they did not feel anything was wrong.

"Come to think of it, wouldn't this kind of thing lead to memory sharing or something?"

Kosmo, the only one who didn't participate in the experiment, asked quietly, "I've seen similar technologies in movies that can connect minds, and they always cause memory confusion or something. Is it really okay to connect so many people together?"

"You're kidding me, who do you think I am? This kind of low-level problem has been solved long ago."

Ai Yue waved his hand dismissively. "It's just a matter of adding a filter to block unnecessary mental fluctuations from the network. Is that that difficult?"

In fact, it is very difficult. After all, not everyone can analyze the relevant technology from the power of the Eighth Herrscher.

I can only say that he has a trick up his sleeve and speaks with confidence.

Chapter 11: You don’t understand? Then I’ll give you a brain that can understand.

After the basic mental network connection is confirmed to be normal, the next step is actual combat testing.

Under Ai Yue's arrangement, the drones quickly drove a group of Honkai beasts towards the experimental base. There were about a thousand of them. For an ordinary small town, it could be described as a catastrophic disaster.
