"I don't know... I haven't thought about this question," Cheng Man lowered her chin slightly, resting her chin on the ground on the platform, "And is it too early to think about this question? After all..."

"No, it's time to think about it." Cheng Man's sharp eyes tended to think in a negative direction again. Shi Mian directly considered Cheng Man's words, and then guided again, "Don't worry about the failure of the experiment. This set of instruments is the crystallization of the wisdom of nearly a thousand scientists from two worlds, and the risk of failure is actually not as high as you think."

"Yes... is it?"

"Of course it is. By the way, I remember you once said that you have a very deep image of the armed police soldiers, right?" Staggering.

"Yes, a group of teachers and students who had organized and covered the evacuation of our industrial university took the initiative to help us divert the attack of the original... mutants." Cheng Man said here, feeling a little depressed, "I don't know how they are now gone."

"We found one of them, the armed police soldier named Jiang Ling, do you want to talk to her?"

Cheng Man's originally depressed mood instantly improved, and her head, which was lying on the ground, also slightly lifted up: "Is it okay!?"

"Of course, you don't have to be so cautious." Shi Mian gave Cheng Man an affirmative answer, and then nodded to another staff member.

Soon, a capable female voice came from the radio: "Hi Cheng Man, I'm Jiang Ling."

"Ah—ah—" Maybe it was because of hearing the familiar figure again, Cheng Man did not reply to Jiang Ling's greeting immediately. Although there was a long-lost smile on her face, she seemed a little excited Speechless.

Jiang Ling, who is also connected to the big screen, can of course see Cheng Man's actions, which makes her face a distressed expression: "It's okay, Cheng Man, don't worry, we can still communicate face to face slowly in the future, So don't worry."

"Can I... can communicate in the future?"

"Yes, Cheng Man, we have plenty of time after the experiment is successful." Jiang Ling's lips trembled slightly, but her tone did not change at all, still full of intelligence, "Does Cheng Man have any plans for the future? If not for the time being What a good plan, have you ever thought about becoming an armed policeman?"

"Armed police? Me?" Jiang Ling's sudden suggestion made Cheng Man feel at a loss, "But I was just a student of an industrial university before, can I?"

"Of course I know, but from all the information we have so far, after the mutant turns back into a human, his physical fitness will be greatly enhanced, and in the process of turning the mutant back into a human, as long as his subjective If the will is strong enough, it can also have an impact on the final human body, that is, as long as your desire to become an armed policeman is strong enough, your physical fitness may be stronger when you turn back into a human."

"Really?" The worry in Cheng Man's eyes gradually dissipated, and a trace of longing for the future began to emerge.

"Of course it's true, Zheng Zhenghao, I think you know it? He was just a 1.6-meter-eight electrician before he mutated, but after turning back into a human, he is now a two-meter-tall man. "

"Scary, more than two meters tall, I don't want to look like that." As if thinking of something, Cheng Man lowered her head shyly, but quickly raised it again, and asked in a hopeful tone, "If I If I succeed, can I really become an armed policeman?"

"Of course, I think you can learn other skills and professional knowledge quickly. As long as your physical fitness is qualified, I think it should not be difficult for you to become an armed policeman."

"At that time, sister Jiang Ling must accompany me."

"We will always be with you."

Jiang Ling tightly pinched her right wrist with her left hand, forcing herself not to show any trace of worry in her tone.

----------

dark, secluded...

At the moment when the mind amplifier was activated, Cheng Man felt as if her head was suddenly stepped on by ten thousand mammoths, her eyes suddenly went black, and when she regained consciousness again, she found that she had already In a place like the deep sea.

But this does not mean that Cheng Man's consciousness has returned to sobriety. On the contrary, Chen Man's thinking is like a rusty machine that has been used for decades but has not undergone any maintenance. A gear turning any angle will make a 'creaking' protest sound, and it cannot run smoothly at all.

What's even more frightening is that whenever Cheng Man wants to seriously think about what her current situation means, the huge water pressure around her will suddenly sweep towards her, as if preparing to crush Cheng Man completely. Same, making Cheng Manzhi feel dizzy for a while.

After repeating this several times, Cheng Man began to feel that her thinking became more and more sluggish, but at this moment, a few slippery things like octopus tentacles suddenly wrapped around Cheng Man's ankles. The touch began to spread up her calf, and soon spread from her ankle to near her knee.

Cheng Man wanted to lower her head to see what was on her leg, but her neck seemed to be petrified at this moment, and just a single movement of lowering her head consumed almost all of Chen Man's strength, but when she Moving her gaze to her lower back, Cheng Man couldn't see anything in the dark surroundings, so she could only helplessly let the unidentified tentacle on her leg slide wantonly on her body.

As more and more places on Cheng Man's body felt the slippery and cold touch of the tentacles, Cheng Man gradually felt as if something was about to tear her skin, and from the position where it was in contact with the tentacles, it moved fiercely into her body. At the same time, endless whispers rang in Cheng Man's ears, but when Cheng Man tried to figure out what these whisperers were saying, she couldn't hear anything clearly.

Cheng Man didn't know what it was, and this unusual intrusion didn't cause Cheng Man any physical pain. On the contrary, a wave of negative, pessimistic, and desperate thoughts began to gradually surface in Cheng Man's mind. Emotions are like piles of dirt that haven't been cleaned up, gradually filling up the few remaining gaps in Cheng Man's thinking gears, and almost completely blocking this stupid machine.

Perhaps because Cheng Man's resistance gradually weakened, more and more tentacles quietly protruded from the bottom of the deep sea, and gradually adsorbed on Cheng Man's body. Man's body, these tentacles began to push down quietly, dragging Cheng Man into the abyss where the bottom could not be seen.

Although Cheng Man's thinking was a little unclear at this time, but for some reason, she instinctively resisted the ending of being taken off the abyss by these tentacles. The thing cut off suddenly, but more tentacles surged out of the abyss one after another, rushing towards Cheng Man's body in anger, as if they didn't intend to give Cheng Man any chance to break free.

As the number of tentacles around Cheng Man gradually increased, more and more indistinguishable whispers began to fill Cheng Man's mind, and chaotic and crazy emotions continued to distort Cheng Man's thinking, making Cheng Man more and more difficult to parry the tentacles drag and drop.

It was almost pitch black in front of Cheng Man's eyes, and the light source from the top of her head was getting weaker and weaker, almost to the point where she could hardly see clearly. She only felt that she was sinking, sinking, almost completely lost in this place. In the deep sea.

wait... light?

Cheng Man's already stiff body trembled violently, she struggled to raise her head, and looked at the 'light source' above her head.

Where is this light source!

This is basically a huge rope made up of golden threads. One end of this rope is connected to the sea surface, and the other end is suspended about [-] centimeters away from her head. The end of the rope is separated into countless Something like a filamentous substance, these golden filamentous substances are connected to Cheng Man's body, engaging in a seemingly hopeless 'tug of war' with those tentacles.

Whenever a tentacle wants to get close to Cheng Man's head, the rope will separate into a huge net, wrapping Cheng Man's head in it, and all tentacles that come into contact with this net will instantly turn into a cloud of smoke.

However, as Chen Man was dragged by the tentacles to more and more positions, the distance between her and the rope gradually increased. When Cheng Man just discovered the rope, it was only about 24 centimeters, but she was only a Dazed, this rope has become [-] centimeters away from her position!

……ah? ...

...so I am...

...are you going to lose...?

Watching the golden rope gradually go away, Cheng Man turned her head mechanically, looking up at the sea, feeling that the last bit of thought was slowly going away.

……good……

……Do not……

...willingly...

There is less and less light in Cheng Man's eyes, and darkness has become the main color in Cheng Man's vision.

...Obviously...agreed...Sister Jiang Ling...

...I...in the future...will also become...an armed policeman...

Under the huge water pressure, Cheng Man's head gradually sank, and those tentacles wriggling on the surface of Cheng Man's body seemed to have won the final victory at this time, and began to use more force to push Cheng Man to the depths of the seabed To tow.

...have decided to...help...others'...

However, the trace of remorse left in her heart still made Cheng Man, in great despair, stretch out her cold and dry hand like a zombie, and use her last strength to grab the rope that was getting farther and farther above her head. As Chen Man sank, even though she had stretched out her hand, her arm could only touch the end of the rope with her fingertips, and she couldn't grasp this vacant hope at all.

"Come on! Cheng Man!"

It was a thick man's voice.

Cheng Man blinked, she felt as if she had an auditory hallucination the moment she touched the rope, as if she heard the guy who called himself Shi Mian cheering for herself.

"Come on! Cheng Man! You can do it!"

It was a nervous woman's voice.

At this time, Jiang Ling's voice came from nowhere. Stimulated by Jiang Ling's voice, Cheng Man's arm stretched outward again, and grabbed the rope with all her strength.

"Wake_up_Cheng! Come_on! Wake_up! You_can_do_it! Cheng! Come_on!"

It was a voice with a clenched teeth and a New London accent. Cheng Man remembered that he should be an expert in counseling himself.

And as Cheng Man came into contact with the ropes more and more, and more and more clear words came from the deep sea, Cheng Man felt cracks appeared on his rusted thinking gears, and Cheng Man felt The thoughts that had been solidified seemed to be slowly unsealed, and at the same time, a brand new gear seemed to be reborn from under these rusty metal shells.

As if realizing something, the tentacles that were already about to wrap Cheng Man began to squirm even more frantically, almost wrapping Cheng Man completely, but every time these tentacles tried to get close to Cheng Man's head, the tentacle exuded golden light. The rope of light will completely shatter these tentacles.

"How is the experiment going? Didn't you say that the experiment will start at ten o'clock? It's already two minutes past ten o'clock, why hasn't there been an update yet!?"

"Pray! Come on!"

"The F5 key is broken. It's [-]:[-], and there is no news. Does anyone know the latest progress of the experiment? Does anyone have the latest news?"

"It must be successful! It must be successful! It must be successful!"

More and more voices came from all directions in the deep sea. Among these voices were immature children, middle-aged people with vicissitudes, gentle female voices, male voices pretending to be calm, standard Chinese, and voices from all over the world. dialect.

These voices were so complicated, but Cheng Man didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, with the sound of these voices, Cheng Man felt that her cold body seemed to recover its temperature again.

"Вперёд!"

"頑張って!"

"Non_mollare_mai!"

The voices ringing around Cheng Man are not only Chinese, Lucia, Dongying, Sardinia... the languages ​​of countless countries are also ringing in Cheng Man's ears at this time, and Cheng Man quickly noticed that even if she couldn't understand These languages, but she miraculously understood the meaning of these languages.

"Ka-ka-ka-cha-"

The dilapidated gears in Chen Man's heart made the last few sounds of being overwhelmed, and then shattered, and as the rusty outer shell completely fell off, a new set of mechanisms with metallic luster took over. After getting rid of the rusted gears, as the teeth meshed and rotated, Cheng Man felt that his thinking had finally returned to normal.

The moment Cheng Man woke up, the tentacles wrapped around her body seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, and they could no longer touch Chen Man's body. The sharp sword sliced ​​continuously, and soon turned into several irregular pieces of minced meat.

Feeling those disgusting touches and whispers gradually go away from her, Cheng Man raised her head again, it turned out that the golden rope had been firmly held by Chen Man at some point, and she was fast He pulled Cheng Man towards the 'sea'.

The stone pillar on the experimental platform is now filled with a faint blue-white glow, and the experimental platform connected to the stone pillar also becomes brighter under the illumination of the stone pillar at this time. After a few seconds of abnormal rise, it has been running smoothly. Unlike Zheng Zhenghao's performance in the experiment, Cheng Man, who was tied up on the experimental platform, did not show any struggle from the beginning to the end. sign.

This sign that nothing happened is not within any of the experimental plans of the human coalition forces, but since Zheng Zhenghao, who can directly observe the projection of thinking, is not at the Huanglongfu base, the human coalition forces have no other choice but to continue the experiment. better way.

In the high tension of everyone's spirits, the time at the Huanglongfu base seemed to be stretched without limit. Obviously, less than 5 minutes had passed, but in everyone's senses, it seemed that a century had passed .

Finally, under everyone's watchful eyes, Cheng Man's body lying on the experimental platform began to "shrink" rapidly visible to the naked eye. After only a few breaths, the body of the lion that was originally a few meters long turned into a sheet draped over it. Under the shriveled skin on the ground, there is only a rough outline of human nature in the middle.

"hiss--"

In the expectant eyes of everyone, a pair of white, human palms tore the lion's skin from the middle, and a little blood and minced meat hung on one, full of doubts, like The face of the human female who hadn't woken up slowly protruded from the torn crack.

"I... succeeded?"

The girl who was reborn from the monster's corpse made a slightly weak question.

0273

Shi Mian and the others didn't know what Cheng Man had experienced. In their eyes, with the opening of the mind amplifier, Cheng Man directly lay on the ground, which was almost the same as Zheng Zhenghao's reaction back then.

Unlike Zheng Zhenghao, until Cheng Man finally turned back to a human being, her original mutant body did not have any directly observable abnormalities, and it looked as if she had completely fallen into a deep sleep.

However, these details are not what Shi Mian wants to focus on now. After confirming that the human woman awakened on the experimental platform is indeed Cheng Man, not something else, after the logistics medical staff transferred Cheng Man to the ward, Shi Mian immediately brought Jiang Ling and several researchers to contact and inquire with Cheng Man.

After the suppression of Hua Zhen was lifted, Cheng Man's recovery speed was obviously much faster than expected by the human coalition forces. It was clear that during the time when she had just transformed back into a human, Cheng Man didn't even have the strength to stand up on the ground. No, but when Shi Mian and others opened the door and entered, less than 5 minutes after Cheng Man was transferred to the intensive care unit, Cheng Man was able to stand in front of the mirror of the sink and observe her human appearance repeatedly very freely.

Although according to the preliminary evaluation of the human coalition researchers, Cheng Man's physical fitness will be strengthened to at least three times that of ordinary adult males, and after turning back into a human, due to the further expansion of the 'hole', Cheng Man's endurance and resilience will also increase. They will get a considerable increase, but when Shi Mian and others entered the intensive care unit, Cheng Man was showing a smirk expression in the mirror, her big eyes had been bent into the shape of a crescent, and her lips were slightly upturned, like Just like an ordinary little girl with a funny expression.

"Yeah." The sudden entry of Shi Mian and others also made Cheng Man jump, she let out a low cry in surprise, and tried hard to put on a serious expression, but the serious expression on Cheng Man's face was still there. It didn't last for ten seconds, and after a short while, that silly smile surfaced on her cheek again.

Shi Mian was not too surprised by Cheng Man's performance. When the human coalition army was looking for volunteers from this group of mutants who had recovered their human thinking mode, the human coalition army had already realized that these mutants were very important to the restoration of human beings. The desire for the body, even the few mutants who behaved the most unbearably at the beginning, showed unimaginable desire when they learned that the human coalition had the opportunity to turn themselves into humans again.

Therefore, Cheng Man's act of checking her body as soon as she recovered was within the expectations of the human coalition forces, although Shi Mian can be sure that Cheng Man's current height is only about 1.4 meters five, and she has snow-white hair on her head. The appearance is definitely not her original appearance, but since the human coalition forces have long known from Zheng Zhenghao that they will be affected by their own subjective consciousness in the process of transforming the mutant back into a human, they are not surprised by this.

However, Cheng Man was obviously not ready to meet the relevant personnel of the human coalition forces so soon. Although after seeing a large group of people blocking the observation room, Cheng Man immediately realized the purpose of their coming, but her actions still changed. She became a little cautious, exhaled a few breaths, and then pinched the skirt of her hospital gown with both hands, and asked in a slightly stiff voice: "Do you want to ask about the experiment process? What do you want to know? "

"We want to know what situation you are facing after the mind amplifier is activated." Since Cheng Man was very clear about her own purpose, Shi Mian thought she didn't do too much politeness, and asked Cheng Man directly, " For example, after you 'coma', did you 'see' something, or 'perceive' something?"

"It's hard for me to describe that feeling to you." Cheng Man frowned slightly, and while trying to recall what she experienced after the experiment started, she replied, "This kind of question is too broad, and it's hard for me to explain exactly what I experienced. What, is there anything specific you want to know?"

"For example, did you encounter any difficulties during the experiment, and how did you solve these difficulties?" Shi Mian thought for a while and continued to add, "Because we are currently blank in this field, so apart from Except for Zheng Zhenghao's explanation, we still don't know anything about the problems we encountered during the experiment, so in order to successfully rescue tens of millions of other people from the bodies of mutants, we must collect and summarize every detail. Experimental conditions, and find or summarize the commonalities among these experiments."

While talking, Shi Mian observed the changes in the expression on Cheng Man's face. After noticing that Cheng Man's nervousness had gradually subsided and he showed a seriously thinking expression, Shi Mian nodded secretly, and continued to explain to Cheng Man. To: "Zheng Zhenghao is also one of the parties involved in the experiment, but according to Zheng Zhenghao's description, after the mind amplifier is running, he is like a butterfly wrapped in a cocoon, and the original enterovirus and those with The other mutants connected to him formed the shell of this 'cocoon', and shortly after he broke through this layer of 'cocoon' with the help of the mind amplifier, when he regained consciousness, he turned back into a human body.

"But considering Zheng Zhenghao's particularity, we can't completely list Zheng Zhenghao's experience as the only answer, so we would like to know whether you have had a similar experience during the experiment, and it may not be exactly the same as Zheng Zhenghao It is a butterfly waiting to break out of its cocoon, and other situations similar to 'dreams' can also be mentioned for our reference."

Shi Mian's supplementary explanation immediately made Cheng Man think of that deep sea-like place, and those tentacle-like things gushing out from the deeper depths of the 'deep sea'. Cheng Man was not sure where it was in that deep sea. Whether the previous experience is the answer Shi Mian wants, after all, whether those tentacles or the golden rope, no matter how you think about it, it cannot be something that exists in reality.

Therefore, Cheng Man doesn't know whether she really "saw" this experience, or it was just a hallucination caused by her exhaustion—after all, after leaving the underground space of Huanglong Mansion, maybe it was because of the pain on her back. The monsters that grew out and the stone pillars that entangled him in sucking blood left Cheng Man with such a terrifying image that Cheng Man would fall into similar nightmares irregularly until the last few months.

"...Did you think of anything?" Of course Shi Mian caught Cheng Man's hesitant expression. asked.

"There are some problems," although Shi Mian had explained at the beginning that he could say whatever Cheng Man thought of, but Cheng Man was also a little afraid that the follow-up experimenters would be in danger because of the wrong information he provided. Cheng Man pursed her lips nervously.He did not directly give his experience.

Along with Shi Mian, in addition to the scientific research personnel of the base, there was also a psychologist from New Britain immigrants, and this psychologist all saw Cheng Man's psychological hesitation.

"Cheng, you don't have to worry that the experiment will get worse because of you." Since everyone had been repeatedly reminded before entering this room, after Cheng Man returned to a human, a series of physical qualities, including hearing and eyesight, improved. There may be different degrees of improvement, so the psychologist did not have a private communication with Shi Mian, but directly explained to Cheng Man, "The process and steps of all the experiments today were completely completed a few days ago. It is set, so the information you provide will only help everyone optimize the experiment in detail, and will not cause the experiment to make too many changes to the process and project."

"And to judge whether to optimize the experiment immediately based on the information you provided is nearly a thousand scientists in various fields in the base from more than 200 countries and regions around the world. Adverse effects, I think you should trust the experts more."

The expert's words did not directly convince Cheng Man, but as soon as Cheng Man thought of hearing Shi Mian and the expert's encouragement in that deep sea, he would unconsciously have greater confidence in what they said. Trust, so Cheng Man calmed down, quickly suppressed all the messy thoughts in his mind, and told everyone in front of him everything he encountered in the experiment—of course This also includes hearing voices from all over the world after touching that golden rope.

Following Cheng Man's narration, the room soon fell into a brief silence. Doubt, thinking, approval, rejection... Numerous different eyes were placed on Cheng Man. Several people who have participated in related thinking research from beginning to end The scientists looked at each other, and after a few seconds of silence, a female scientist who had participated in the project since the beginning of the experiment on the inhibitory effect of the portal on the original enterovirus said: "The information given by Cheng Man Very useful, we all forgot about a very critical variable.”

"The identity of Zheng Zhenghao's mutant commander may have misled us. It is likely that not only the mutant commander can link with other people, or the mutant's thinking..."

"After finishing the theory, you compile a report and send it to me and the joint research institute. We have more important things to solve immediately," but just when the scientist was about to explain further, Shi Mian suddenly said, something He interrupted him roughly, "Liang Yu, I need you to tell me now what we need to do next to ensure that the remaining mutants can safely transform back into humans with a greater probability."

Although Shi Mian knew that Cheng Man's experience would definitely give the scientist a lot of other things after hearing the other party's initiative to speak, but Shi Mian did not intend to listen to the scientist's detailed explanation of the principle here.

"I understand." Even though Shi Mian interrupted his explanation, Liang Yu could clearly distinguish the priority of the matter, without any change in his tone or expression. He explained, "According to the information provided by Cheng Man, I think that while the mind amplifier amplifies the volunteers' own thinking projection, it will also amplify their ability to accept the thoughts of other people and mutants.

"Just like Zheng Zhenghao's definition of thinking is just a 'projection', I guess whether it is a tentacle or a butterfly cocoon, the experiences that Cheng Man and Zheng Zhenghao encountered during the mind amplifier experiment are actually just symbolic Things, judging from Cheng Man's example, those tentacles are undoubtedly the projection of the original enterovirus, and I think the rope is probably the projection of human thinking... or the collective consciousness.
