Chapter 38
James watched Adam leave and said to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "Adam, you underestimated me. There is only a glimmer of hope. I can do my best to fight for it. This is my own choice, resentment? It doesn't exist."
From the telekinesis power that Adam just showed, James has already seen the extraordinary and difficult. Even if this kind of materialization is a feature brought by the Meditation Method, it is impossible to have if the number of spirit strength is not reached. He has studied spirit strength for several decades, and he will not even lose sight of this point. For James As far as the scholar is concerned, choosing to stay is a stud, betting on everything you own, even if you die.
“It’s better to die on the way to mage than to spend the rest of my life trying nothing and accomplish nothing.”
......
Adam came to the original spirit strength laboratory, and after showing the voucher that Mage Irene gave him, the laboratory was unsealed. The tower’s work efficiency is extremely high. The funds for this month have been allocated. Adam has used the console summon to refine a golden puppet. He needs to transform the laboratory. The previous laboratory had too many rooms and too many rooms. This is probably Because of the excessive number of apprentices participating in the research.
But Adam does not need that many people to assist him in the demonstration. He has multi-threaded work capabilities. In projects like spirit strength that don’t need to operate any large-scale equipment, he can even stand alone. a team.
What Adam needs is a sample, not an assistant.
Refining the golden puppet started to work after receiving the order to obtain the energy stone. Adam once again saw the silver torrent he saw on the dock. These nano-level robots covered the laboratory like a tide. After decomposing and combining the original structure, Adam's requirements were met in a few seconds.
If these puppets are not the wealth of Academy, Adam would like to leave them all behind. This ability to directly change the form of matter is simply fascinating.
The next step is to purchase equipment and become the owner of the laboratory before he knows that the tower can improve so many magical things.
The optical projection instrument is just the most basic thing. Spirit strength amplifiers, substantive aids, energy amplifiers, energy fluctuation recorders, etc. sound very difficult to deal with. But relatively, the prices are very high.
Adam frowns bought a batch of instruments and found that the funds allocated by the tower were quickly spent. At this point, he finally knew why the value of the energy stone was not high and there would still be apprentices duel because of this, really apprentices They are too poor.
He couldn't help but think of the red campaign missions and huge rewards in the mission hall. Adam, who was originally a research house, was not interested in those, but now he found that maybe he really wanted to Do it.
But now is not the time, he needs to send the Meditation Method to the library. The books with specific rune in the library are not paper, but the three-dimensional form of the light curtain. Adam enters the Telekinesis Meditation Method into the optical projection instrument, and then removes the information box from the projection instrument. The complete rune group has been stored in the information Among the boxes, the library will form a'book' based on the information box.
......
In the morning of 2nd day, Frank came to the laboratory almost at the same time as James.
"I would like to join the lab." Frank said directly.
Adam is not surprised by this. Judging from yesterday's performance, Frank agrees that it is almost inevitable.
"I’m honored, but what I need is not an experimental assistant, but a test subject. Can you accept it?" Adam’s words are straightforward. In the research of the Telekinesis Meditation Method, whether it is James Or Frank, their wisdom is not enough to help Adam, the meaning of the two of them is to provide data for Adam-under the general aptitude cultivation, and under the semi-mechanical incarnation Body Cultivation.
Even if they have already positioned their own abilities, they were still a little embarrassed when they heard Adam's words, but soon Frank said categorically: "Yes, Mr. Adam, I can accept it. "
Adam nodded, took out two contracts and gave them to them. The content of the contract was very formulaic, and the two of them signed it without looking at it.
Adam patted his hands and said: "Well, you are welcome to join." There is no morale boosting and no celebration. Adam directly assigns tasks: "James, you can start building the Meditation Method. Now, if you find it difficult, you can use amplifiers and substantive aids. All the processes you build will be under surveillance. If you have any questions, sort them out and hand them to me. Mr. Frank, you come with me."
Frank's research is more valuable than James, and Adam is very interested in him.
"Mr. Frank, I want to know if your soul and spirit strength have changed after you lose half of your body."
This question is that Frank is always paying attention to in the hardship. Yes, I heard Adam ask him and said without thinking: "There is no change, but after losing my body, I can no longer feel the element."
Adam recorded his words and then asked:" So, do you know the situation of other apprentices who use mechanical bodies? Do they have no way to feel the elements?"
Frank knows that Adam is a rookie. Although he is talented, he doesn’t know much about common sense. He directly said what Adam wanted to know: "Yes, all apprentices like me can no longer produce elemental perception. We can only embark on the path of alchemy mage. But this path requires a huge amount of resources. And Moldo Elemental Tower is not better than alchemy."
"So, do you know the reason?"
Frank nodded: "In the apprenticeship, the body is the actual manifestation of the soul Although the semi-mechanized body does not affect life, it will cause the loss of the soul."
The loss of the soul? Adam set aside the key point. In Earth's research on the soul, it only stays in theology, and it is impossible to even confirm its existence at the scientific level. If Frank is right, the incompleteness of the body causes the loss of the soul, then why is thinking not affected?
Is it true that in the apprenticeship, or mortal stage, human thinking is not determined by the soul? What is it by? Brain?
Adam put this question in his mind. This kind of knowledge should not be considered confidential. There may be relevant materials in the library. Just look it up when you have time.
He said to Frank: "Yesterday you told me that a mechanized body brings pain. How does this pain arise?"
"I look like a person , But they are actually two bodies. All the characteristics of the flesh and blood body are only carried out in one half, and the other half cannot be felt. But the mechanical side must be involved." Frank took off all his clothes and exposed the mechanical body. Then he Hold the connection with both hands and separate it from the flesh and blood.
This kind of thing is obviously very painful, Frank sweats like rain, but he didn't say a word, and said with a calming voice, "That's it."
It looks a little scary. , The small granulation on the broken side of the body continues to grow, trying to heal the wound, while the mechanical side simply cuts off the granulation. Each blood vessel is connected to a tube. The blood flows in this way, even the internal organs. It is made of machinery, and Frank's entire body is rapidly failing.
“It’s the magic that keeps it running.”
Adam knows, perhaps the most painful thing for him is not the physical, flesh-and-blood body that has not undergone body refinement. But you have to be in contact with magic at all times, and the regeneration speed of cells cannot keep up with the speed of death. In this way, what is waiting for Frank is to watch his death with his own eyes. This kind of psychological pressure is the most painful.
Adam put his hand on Frank’s body, and Frank jerked uncomfortably. Adam said, "Don’t move, I need to test it."
Whether telekinesis can be used on the mechanical body and A layer of membrane is constructed between the flesh and blood to make a harmonious combination between the two. Spirit strength itself has bearing capacity, and telekinesis surpasses spirit strength. So whether telekinesis can neutralize different substances? This is what Adam wants to study now.
The telekinesis flowed out gently and gently, covering the fracture. Adam gradually controlled it to materialize. After perfect coverage, a thin film was formed. He said to Frank: "Merge."
Frank relaxed, he tore himself apart. Even though he was used to the pain, he couldn't bear it, and then he became nervous again. If Adam's experiment can be done, it undoubtedly means that he may not have to bear such pain in the future. .
Adam took his hand away and asked Frank, "How do you feel."
"The pain has been relieved, but it is not obvious." Frank frowned, and he found it more important Question: "And the growth of the body cannot be inhibited."
Adam nodded records, and then applies changes on the telekinesis to enhance the strength of the telekinesis, and control the body to no longer grow. This is not easy. Excessive strength can kill The body is dead, and the strength is too small to be restrained. Fortunately, Adam has a perverted level of computing power, and found the most suitable output in a short time.
"What about now?" Adam asked again.
Frank’s eyes burst into bright rays of light. It’s not a description, it’s really rays of light. This is a manifestation of intense mood swings and uncontrollable spirit strength. He excitedly said to Adam: "Useful It’s really useful! Compared to before, it’s hardly painful, and I feel relaxed like never before!"
Frank has reason to be excited. This kind of telekinesis performance gave him great hope. He originally applied for the experiment. The project is just to alleviate the pain, and now this goal has been achieved.
Adam originally wanted to use telekinesis to build blood vessels, but Frank’s current state is not suitable for experimentation. He withdrew telekinesis, Frank’s expression suddenly distorted, Adam turned a blind eye, said in a tranquil voice: "I'm here for today, you can go back to rest, or go to James to build the Meditation Method together."
