American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

Chapter 370 Psychic Erosion
Osborne House.

"Look, those people are in trouble." Little Harry, who was being monitored, projected a video.Little Harry's tone and expression were a little gloating.

The video is a bit blurry and seems to come from inside a closed laboratory.On the screen, heavily armed soldiers were fighting fiercely with a group of humanoid monsters and alienated experimental creatures.

The alienated experimental creatures are like enlarged white mice. Their eyes are blood-colored, and their figures are like phantoms that shuttle rapidly through the corridors of the laboratory. The speed is so fast that human eyes can only capture an afterimage.Especially after the alienation, their sharp teeth and mouth are so sharp that they can chew up steel and leave deep claw marks on the blast shield.

They are extremely numerous and have extremely strong vitality. Unless they are directly shot in the head, they will heal themselves very quickly.

What is more troublesome and troublesome than these alienated white rats is the group of humanoid creatures. Their limbs have evolved towards inhumanity due to deformation. They are extremely powerful and have some special abilities.

In the video footage, the laboratory has become a meat grinding ground littered with corpses.The soldiers and the humanoid monsters who continued to invest were fighting fiercely throughout the laboratory.

The underground environment limits the use of human weapons of mass destruction, but the underground space, like a small city, has enough space to open multiple battlefields.

"What are these? It was caused by the monster from inside the [door], right?" Little Harry asked curiously, looking at the older Harry who was watching the video intently.

The video is not long, only a few minutes.What is shown is only a war scene in a certain place and some messy switching scenes.But the big Harry watched it very seriously. After reading it, he watched it again, and then he looked at the final frozen and suspended picture and answered the little Harry.

"Although I'm not sure, it seems like psychic erosion."

"Psychic erosion?" Little Harry repeated with great interest.He knew that the Great Harry would give him a detailed explanation of what psychic erosion meant.

"Yes, it is a symptom of erosion caused by the disorderly diffusion of psychic energy in living groups. Of course, artificial means can also be used to accelerate the occurrence of this situation. Use it as a psychic energy dissemination weapon. use.

If you understand it specifically, you can think of the latter as the spread and outbreak of a man-made virus that is widely spread, highly infectious, and extremely dangerous.And one of its first symptoms is what is shown in this video.If a certain part of the body is alienated, the best among them, as well as the next evolution, will also gain some enhanced abilities.Such as infinite strength, powerful self-healing, body simulation, energy manipulation, etc. "As expected, the big Harry quickly explained to the little Harry.

"Psychic erosion, is it scary?" Little Harry saw the solemn and ugly look on Big Harry's face, and he couldn't help but gloat about his misfortune, and asked anxiously.

"Of course it's scary. From what I explained before, you should understand that they are like a plague. Once they appear, they will inevitably spread on a large scale. If their spread cannot be contained in the early stage, then at every stage in the later stage, if you want The difficulty of containing it will continue to rise. This is a technology used to exterminate civilization." Great Harry said with an ugly face: "Of course, when this technology was created by a laboratory in Hyperion, its concept It is to allow civilization, or human beings, to evolve!
But experiments have proven that this technology brings not only evolution but also the reshaping and recasting of everything.They do not make human civilization better, but replace it!Humans are even raised as food for them to absorb psychic energy.

From a creative perspective, this technology was a failure for Hyperion.It deviated from Hyperion's philosophy and was sealed.But the Time Administration has backup for this technology. "

"You have also done experiments on humans?" Little Harry looked surprised.Knowing so much about the evolution of this technology, and being so confident about even the final stage, must be supported by rigorous data and experimental proof.In the world of Great Harry, do the researchers play so wildly?
"Simulation of the data dimension." Harry said: "The data dimension can directly reproduce a living planet, and can accelerate or rewind time according to the researcher's wishes and debugging, as well as conduct experimental simulations of various environments. In the end The results must be consistent with reality, at least for now.”

"Psychic energy, isn't it a kind of energy?" Little Harry asked again in confusion.

"Of course it is an energy source, but you have to know that many high-dimensional energies have the ability to change life forms. If you are exposed to them more, they will subtly transform you from one race to another. You can understand or think that this transformation is a kind of evolution or regression." Great Harry shook his head and explained.

"Then you..." Little Harry looked at Big Harry subconsciously, as if he wanted to see something alienated in him.

"What we use is pure spiritual energy that has been filtered by Hyperion technology. The spiritual energy that has not been filtered and purified in any way is violent, and even has its own will. Only Kama Taj's spiritual energy Only the group of mages can receive and accommodate the most primitive spiritual energy. But this still requires taking some risks." The great Harry said what the young Harry wanted to know almost without stopping.

"In our world, it is illegal to use primitive psychic powers without permission. You will be hunted by the mages from Kama Taj. If the mutation is too serious, or the mages judge that your eroded state is too Seriously, they will take any measures to drive you away from the human world. This includes, but is not limited to, opening a portal and throwing you directly to an unknown dimension, or directly throwing you into a prison they use to hold dangerous creatures in the dimension.

After all, if he doesn't do this, it will be very troublesome once he becomes the source of infection.Every aftermath requires a period of joint cleanup and investigation by Karma Taj's mages and SHIELD.And treat people with weak erosion symptoms to return to normal. "

"So after being infected by primitive psychic energy, will they become beasts like them?" Little Harry pointed at the drooling mutant on the screen, who could not be seen to be intelligent in any case.

"This situation is what Hyperion calls overload. Their brains are infected and dominated by certain emotions, and under normal circumstances, these are mostly contagious emotions such as fanaticism, anger, excitement, etc. They will It quickly infects and assimilates all surrounding life forms, and the assimilated life forms will spread out and infect more life forms. Ultimately, a single emotional network is formed.

And you have to understand that once any living being is dominated by a certain emotion, his IQ will be severely reduced and he will ignore many, many problems.And those eroded by primitive spiritual energy are more serious than that.They can't even think. "The Great Harry also glanced at the people with obvious erosion symptoms on the screen. The person was still wearing a shabby isolation suit and looked like a researcher in a laboratory.

"But if a gifted person can survive this stage, absorb a large amount of other primitive spiritual energies, and neutralize each other, he will regain his thinking and consciousness, but it cannot be said that he will be the same as before. His concepts will Changes will occur due to the reshaping of the body. Over time, some of them who were originally indifferent to emotions will distinguish themselves from the human species. They will consider themselves to be a member of the human race, and because of the output of spiritual energy , giving birth to the idea of ​​enslaving, or controlling human beings.”

"Does this sound a bit scary?" Little Harry smacked his lips.

"Actually, it's nothing. The nobles and royal families in human history have never regarded the people below as human beings. Perhaps those psykers will be more restrained for the sake of the output of psionic energy." Great Harry looked at Although the experimental records from Hyperion are incomplete, it is indeed as he said. Mutants who claim to be psykers after evolution will indeed raise some humans separately in order to produce some positive results. Psionics.

"Then should we help them?" Little Harry wavered, "I mean, do you think the military can eliminate and quell this trouble?"

"What do you think?" After hearing what little Harry said, a sarcastic smile appeared on Big Harry's face, "Those people are all self-righteous people. Before something happens, they firmly believe that they can control all disturbances.

Think about it, even if they calm down this turmoil, what will they do next?Destroy those mutants?Do they have the correct destruction measures in place?

They will only study each other, just like studying the behemoth, to study those mutants.They think that if the other person is dead, they will be safe, but this is impossible.The behemoth was dead, but it could still infect the researchers and soldiers who came into contact with it.Even if they have taken what they think are adequate protective measures.

The monster inside that door is the first source of infection, and those mutants will become the second source of infection, and if they don't restrain themselves, there will be third and fourth ones.As the source of infection increases, the erosion and activity of the original psychic energy will become higher. According to the number of soldiers participating this time, it is almost certain that the erosion of psychic energy cannot be eradicated.

Even if you tell them everything now, they will just think you are crazy and trying to scare them.They may even warn you in turn to shut you up.

Until the hidden danger breaks out completely and cannot be suppressed, they may still have time to find someone to take the blame for them, such as you and me, or that door or something.Although these actions are meaningless for a future destined to collapse and destruction. "

"Then what are we going to do?" Little Harry was a little confused for a moment. At a certain stage, he did have a strong tendency in his mind to destroy the world.But that was during a low and difficult phase of his life.Osborne is now at the height of his power in the world. Although his foundation is unstable, it is much better than the previous stage that was full of difficulties.

If possible, of course he still doesn't want accidents to happen in this world.The best thing is to follow his and Great Harry's plan step by step, and become an existence like Hyperon in another world here.

"Do you want to go to our world? If I can go back smoothly, maybe I can find you a position in the Time Administration? I believe that with your talent and my help, you can successfully cross the Time Administration It's the recruitment threshold." The big Harry began to arrange a way out for the little Harry.He still likes himself in this world. He is smart, sensible, decisive, and a good teammate who doesn't cheat.

"That is to say, you also think that the world is hopeless, right? What if I take over? Osborne Industries now has the ability to influence and control some of the top executives. We can arrange some accidents and then take power quickly." Little Harry An idea was proposed.

"This is a very bad idea. If there is no external threat, I agree with your idea. But what if the attacker suddenly jumps out at a critical moment? What if he joins another group of people? What is the probability? Although it is small, it does exist. By then, human civilization in this world may collapse and fall faster.

Even if the other party doesn't stand up and join forces with some people to target us, his own threat alone is enough for us to drink from it now.I guess that the other party has arrived at our timeline and is paying attention to and collecting our information.Based on the technological development in recent years, the opponent can easily target Osborne. "Big Harry showed his hands and said, "Our trump cards cannot be used indiscriminately. "

Little Harry nodded silently.It wasn't that the Great Harry really convinced him, but that he understood that from the beginning to the end, the Great Harry had no sense of belonging to this world.The other person just wants to return to his original universe.What the world is like is not important to Maharaja.The fact that the other party wanted to take him away and arrange a way out was a testament to the relationship between the two of them during this period of time together.

The other party's thoughts on this matter did not agree with his.To say that he has any deep feelings for the world, he doesn't think so.After all, he is also very interested in the other universe where he lives, and even has some admiration for it.But if he was asked not to struggle while holding the cards in his hand, he felt a little tangled in regret.Distraught, little Harry could only choose to take one step at a time.

……

"I just came to this timeline, and I saw familiar old friends. How can I put it? I was a little surprised."

Outside the door, a man wearing an iron mask and green robe slowly descended from the sky. When he saw the four people sneaking in from the front, he spoke happily.

"Is that you, Doom?"

Reed Richards, who wanted to enter the door and find a way to close the [door] from the other side, looked at the man who appeared in front of them and felt very familiar to him, and subconsciously blurted out a name.
