The world enters the age of mythology.

"In the dream world, the memory is incomplete. I don't even know who I am, and I don't have superpowers. My mind is even more muddled, like a fool. You must have had nightmares, and you should know yourself inside. Sometimes It's like a mental patient who can't be completely rational."

This group of soldiers has been in a coma for so many hours, and there is no way to wake up. In fact, they have reached the edge of danger.

It is not impossible to completely collapse and cause brain death in the next minute!

Lu Yiming had an idea: "I think the most urgent thing is...to hibernate. Don't we have hibernation technology?"

He still feels faintly afraid when he recalls it now, "This matter should not be so easy to solve. If it collapses, it will be finished. Let them hibernate first."

The hibernation technology was a special technology exchanged from the Great Eagle Kingdom after the victory of the Xia Kingdom through the ancient sailing incident on the eve of the flood disaster on Earth.

Its main principle is to inject a special potion into the human body to slowly dehydrate the human cells, search for the cells, prevent the cells from freezing and puncture the cell membrane to die, and then pass through the hibernation chamber to store the human body at a temperature below zero degrees Celsius.After entering hibernation, the body will be in a stage of extremely slow metabolism.

There is a creature called "forest frog" on the earth, which hibernates in this way.

This kind of hibernation technology is generally used to treat critically ill patients, and it is not used many times.But it is indeed a relatively mature medical technology.

"Hibernation! Makes sense." A medical expert clapped his hands.

"The human brain needs a lot of energy to be active. Cutting off the energy supply will definitely make it impossible to have nightmares. I think this path may be effective! Hibernate first, and then let them wake up."

"If it doesn't work, just keep freezing! Until we find a way!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, no more ink marks."

After discussing the details, the group of medical experts hastily started to act.

There is no need to delay the action. What if someone has a nervous breakdown and becomes a vegetable completely if it is 1 minute late?

Soldiers who had fallen into a nightmare were frozen in an emergency. Seeing that their brainwaves had almost stagnated, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Even if the supernatural power can still play a role, it should be able to delay it for a while."

However, this matter did not pass like this. Soon, Lu Yiming and Liu Xuwei received a notice asking them to go to the Central Building to attend an emergency decision-making meeting.

In fact, you don't need to guess to know what the content of the meeting is.

The two didn't dare to delay. After saying goodbye to the group of medical experts, they quickly headed to the conference room.

"Hey, this continent is actually such a disaster. It's really a headache." Liu Xuwei touched his temple. He escaped a catastrophe because he was on the night shift. It was both a fluke and a worry.

"I don't know if my different space ability can escape this kind of disaster."

"Worth a try."

Five minutes later, the two found their seats and sat down.And the rest of the experts are also coming.

, everyone's expressions are very serious, it will be dark above the Yanghe River, and there may be great danger.However, on the first night of this new continent that we just found, something like this happened...

This kind of disaster is almost unsolvable for the current Yunhai.

The calamity of dreams cannot be overcome by beating little monsters.Either through some kind of technology, forcibly prevent people from dreaming, or can disturb the dream, and forcefully carry it over, or they have to not enter this world.

However, human beings' understanding of dreams is actually quite superficial, and there is not even a clear scientific explanation for why dreams occur... A lot of papers have been published, but they are all just ambiguous things, without going straight to the core.

Ding Yuan cleared his throat on the stage, not talking nonsense, and said solemnly: "Dear comrades, I believe everyone has heard about what happened last night. There are currently 196 victims, and only one person has successfully escaped from the disaster. Our experts can't find a way to wake them up in the short term, so we can only put these victims into forced hibernation through hibernation technology."

"Theoretically, this kind of technical means should be useful. The physical structure of the brain is required for the generation of dreams. Even if human beings have a soul, it is impossible to exist without the human body."

"These victims' brain waves fluctuate very violently. As long as the patients are forced to hibernate, even if they are not completely cured, they can be relieved for a period of time."

"But the most important thing is to find a way to solve the nightmare on a large scale... Otherwise, we will have no way to enter this world and avoid the night of Yanghe."

In the current situation, even if Lu Yiming, the top A-level superpower, can forcibly break free from the nightmare, it is only a small number of people, and there is no possibility of popularization.

There are so many old people, children, and all kinds of ordinary people on the Yunhai. If they are recruited, how will they break free from the dream?

It's completely impossible.

Before the words fell, a scientist couldn't help raising his hand and said: "I'm a little skeptical, is hibernation really effective?

"If it doesn't work, wouldn't it be a waste of time to delay this period of time."

"It should be effective... Everyone, let me show you the horror of nightmares first." It was Professor Huang who spoke, "Don't we have a machine that converts brain waves into pictures? Through that device, we can Read the dreaming images of the nightmares. Be mentally prepared, everyone."

Lu Yiming swallowed, a little curious about what other people's dreams were like.

Blurred pixel-level images were displayed on the screen.

In this soldier's dream, he seemed to be being chased by something, the whole atmosphere was dark and gray, and a terrifying and desperate atmosphere was spreading, and there was a dead end in front of him, and there was no place to escape, maybe he would be killed soon pursued.

It's a pretty standard nightmare.

In the dream of Zhong Peng, another coma, there was an old lady with a cat face lying on his back, sticking out her scarlet tongue, looking like she might eat people at any time.

And Zhong Peng had already found the cat-faced old lady in a small mirror, and he was trembling with fright.

The dream of another soldier was even weirder. At the beginning, it was a multiplayer sex dream, but in the end, they all turned into female ghosts who wanted their lives. The huge contrast was astonishing... so much so that he passed out on the spot Passed, yes, passed out in a dream.

Chapter 344 The Second Exploration

As for the soldier who passed out in the dream, it is not known whether he had a dream in a dream.

Anyway, falling into a deep dream is definitely not a good thing.

Looking at the images one after another, these dark and obscure pictures alone make people feel a strong sense of discomfort.

Professor Huang cleared his throat and said, "After entering the hibernation state, human metabolism will decrease by more than 99.5%, and their brainwave images are almost frozen, which is equivalent to time suspension. The probability of mental breakdown is greatly reduced."

"So we think that hibernation is an effective means of protection..."

"But after waking up from hibernation, the nightmare may continue."

"This is a mysterious force at work, and it is different from ordinary dreams. Anyway, it is definitely not wrong to hibernate first. Various rescue activities have yet to be studied. We need more experiments before we can develop a targeted plan .”

He sighed softly, this kind of nightmare disaster is too troublesome, even if the Yunhai has made a great breakthrough in theory.

But it is still a little immature to want to completely solve a disaster with distance

Someone stood up and asked, "Does interfering with the brain work?"

"I have tried some psychiatric drugs, but they have little effect. Unless I can find a superpower that can affect dreams, maybe it will be effective."

There have been one or two superpowers related to dreams on Earth, but that was on Earth, not on the Sea of ​​Clouds.

Where are those superpowers and whether they are still alive, it is impossible for people to have corresponding answers.Most likely, they were already dead.

After such a long period of time, the Sea of ​​Clouds actually didn't expect to meet more human beings who originated from the earth.

At this point in the discussion, everyone was silent for a while.

A brain expert suddenly said: "According to Comrade Lu Yiming's description, I suspect that what is trapped in the dream is actually the subconscious mind."

"subconscious?"

"It's a bit similar to instinct. It has a certain thinking ability, but its IQ is not high. It is mainly impulsive, emotional, and instinctive."

"The power of the human subconscious mind is actually far stronger than the conscious mind. For example, when you walk, do you step with your left foot or your right foot first? Wait, these things that don't require any thinking are part of the subconscious."

"The subconscious mind corresponds to the conscious mind, which is a more rational part. Reading books, watching comics, watching movies, learning knowledge, these events that require the use of the brain are all done by the conscious mind."

"The contrast between the subconscious mind and the conscious mind is about 92% and 8%."

"You mean, the subconscious mind is actually more powerful?"

"Yes, indeed."

Human reason is actually just a small corner of a huge iceberg.

And a bigger part is actually one's own instinct, which is the subconscious mind.It includes a series of factors such as primitive instincts, impulses, childhood psychological imprints, environmental influences, concepts, personality, etc., but does not include true reason.

In nightmares, it is equivalent to subconsciousness taking the lead, so various manifestations will appear very stupid

"Mr. Lu Yiming was able to wake up because he used his super power to force the conscious mind to take the lead, turning the whole dream into a state similar to lucid dream. Everyone should know that lucid dream is a very shallow dream. A dream can even be manipulated by a person's conscious mind, so it is easily shattered."

However, this reasoning does not have much effect. How to interfere with the dream is a big problem.

At this time, an expert suddenly thought of something and said loudly: "Don't we have a cursed doll? That cursed doll can interfere with human dreams and make people have nightmares. Maybe we can find some clues from it, maybe we can Fighting poison with poison."

There was a discussion in the meeting room.Many scientists' eyes lit up.

This cursed doll was brought from the South Wind.

When the residents of Nanfeng took refuge with Yunhai, they brought not only a wooden fish, but also a curse doll.

Since the role of this cursed doll is not too great, there are not many studies on it.The manpower in the research institute is too limited, and they can only study some important issues, and they are not so extravagant that they can just find a weird thing and study it.

"Makes sense."

There may be some breakthroughs.

Of course, there is not enough time now.In less than a month, Yanghe will be dark, and it is still a question of whether something can be researched.

What if this cursed doll doesn't help in cracking the dream?

Moreover, this kind of experiment is really too dangerous. Once the experiment fails, there is no way to wake up.

Ding Yuan sighed, and said, "Everyone, don't be too depressed. I think it's better to go to that continent to find clues... Even if the human beings on this continent cannot resist this kind of disaster in the end, there is always something Are there clues? Maybe there are some survivors like in the Grudge Continent?"

"Don't underestimate the ability of human beings to survive in a desperate situation."

"It's impossible for billions of people to die overnight. I don't believe that none of them can survive, and there is no clue at all."

"Of course, scientific research will continue...Anyway, we can use as many methods as there are. We still can't easily fight against the night in Yanghe."

I don't know who suddenly said: "What if there are other things in that continent besides nightmares? We don't know what the final result of this nightmare is, whether it will cause people to die directly, or Will it lead to more dire consequences?"

There was a moment of silence in the meeting room.

Another young scientist had a whim: "I have an idea. Doesn't our golden baby's defense suit have the function of shielding superpowers? I don't know if this kind of clothes has a certain shielding ability?"

Professor Huang sighed: "It seems useless at the moment. Our soldiers are all wearing this kind of clothing, and they are still recruited."

The young scientist quickly said: "I'm talking about a fully enclosed defensive suit. When soldiers sleep, they only wear underwear, with their heads and limbs exposed, so the defensive suit is useless. If this suit is fully enclosed What will happen to the protective clothing that wraps the head, hands and feet? Maybe it has a defensive effect?"

This is a plan that sounds quite reliable. Wrap yourself in a special protective clothing into a rice dumpling before going to bed, and don't think about things like breathing. It does sound like a possibility.

Jin Baobao's defensive suit does have the property of isolating superpowers.The only trouble is that the production capacity may not be enough. Originally, it was only provided for soldiers to use, and the production capacity was so-so, but now it is provided to the owners of the Yunhai, 17 people, and they have to be wrapped into rice dumplings. How can there be so much production capacity? Woolen cloth?

"Anyway, this matter has to pass animal experiments..."

About half an hour later, in addition to the cursed doll plan and the fully enclosed protective clothing plan, they also proposed a plan to escape to the corridors of the underworld, a hibernation plan for all, and so on. Anyway, it sounds a bit strange.

Lu Yiming rubbed his temples and sighed: "In the end, I still have to go to the New World to find the answer. I should go there. However, the number of people on this expedition should not be too large. Just use a helicopter to fly there. There is no need for a ship. The faster the better, don't spend the night there."

"Even if this continent has more terrifying things, we don't have to worry too much. Because the Yunhai is at most just floating on the surrounding ocean, and will not approach this continent at will, for example, moving back and forth near the dividing line."

"We just need to wait for the night in Yanghe to pass, and then we can go out again. So the most important thing is to obtain a way to resist nightmares, a way for ordinary people to resist nightmares."

"I think Team Lu's idea is good." Shi Dayong also agreed with Lu Yiming's opinion, "There will always be some variables in a world with a population of several billion. I believe that there is a small amount of information in this world."

The range of the helicopter is about 500 kilometers, which is enough for a round trip, and it is fast enough to fly in the air.If you use a destroyer to sail on the sea, it may take 10 hours to go back and forth. Under the high-intensity mental pressure, you will feel tired after too long time.

Ding Yuan nodded, "This matter should be done sooner rather than later, so I will work hard for you. Take half a day's rest and start as soon as possible."

At the end of the meeting, a total of 10 special forces members were selected to go to the New World to carry out missions. Zhong Peng of the A-level fell into a nightmare, and more than 20 outstanding soldiers of the B-level were recruited, so that everyone seemed very anxious.

Lu Yiming first lay on the bed and rested for a while, but after such a big incident, he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, so he could only close his eyes and rest his mind.

The same is true for Liu Xuwei.

He was on the night shift last night and had no rest at all. If he didn't take a good rest, he couldn't perform the task.

So in the end, the doctor had to prescribe some sleeping pills to force myself to fall asleep.

Fortunately, Liu Xuwei did not fall into a nightmare state during his sleep this time. This fact also made all the observers breathe a sigh of relief, which means that as long as he escapes into Yanghe, the mysterious power that makes people fall into a nightmare state will be helpless follow out completely.

Six hours passed quickly, and after the rest, ten exploration soldiers boarded the helicopter. There are a total of 6 A-level people, namely Lu Yiming, Shi Dayong, and Li Yao.The remaining 3 people are all superpowers in the direction of investigation.This time it was not to fight, but to obtain information.

The propellers took off "buzzing" and flew in the direction of "Nightmare Continent".

"I'm thinking about one thing, if, what I'm talking about is if... what should we do if we can't find a way to fight against nightmares? It is definitely not so easy to crack the cause of nightmares through supernatural science, otherwise this continent will be destroyed. It won’t perish so soon.” Li Yao suddenly asked, “Could it be that our Yunhai spends the night above the Yang River?”

This feeling of having tigers in front and wolves in back is too unpleasant.

No one wants to make such a choice.

"If you can't find a way to crack it, then you can only float on the Yang River." Lu Yiming said casually: "Even if it's dark, you won't suffer disaster immediately, but the degree of danger is greatly increased... If you come again A gorefiend, we still can't bear it, damn it."
