Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 17: cost

Three floors of the underground building, C-14 project team.

Jiang Baimian, carrying a tactical backpack, saw Mei Shouan.

"Mianmian is here?" Mei Shouan showed a kind smile, "The team responsible for making your biological cochlear prosthesis and the corresponding equipment and equipment are all ready. We will try to get it done once and not let you suffer extra. "

According to the scheduled procedure, Jiang Baimian will receive anesthesia in the final step of the awakening experiment and enter deep sleep. Mei Shouan intends to divide this into two parts, the first half is left for her to wake up, and the second half is transplanted with biological cochlea.

In terms of timing, this is entirely feasible.

"Thank you, Uncle Mei." Jiang Baimian thanked him sincerely.

She is afraid of being anesthetized, losing consciousness, falling into darkness, and being unable to control herself anymore, so if it can be solved at once, she must raise her hands and feet in favor.

Mei Shouan nodded, his expression gradually becoming serious:

"Before the official start, something must be said to you.

"You should already know that the risk of the C-14 project is very low, but this does not mean that there is no.

"The experimenter has a five-thousandth chance that he will never wake up again, and 20% have various problems, including anxiety, mania, transient amnesia, and skin allergies for a period of time. After these treatments, most of them have improved significantly and will recover in the foreseeable future.

"The success rate of the experiment, that is, the probability of the awakened person is very unstable. Sometimes, there are two or three in a batch, and sometimes there is no awakening in three or four batches in a row.

"In addition, the probability of problems with continuous experiments has risen sharply, almost tantamount to suicide.

"You think about it now, there is still a chance to go back."

After explaining the risks, Mei Shouan sighed:

"You are already D9. It is only a matter of time before you enter the management. If you are my daughter, I definitely don't want you to take such a risk."

The hidden meaning of his words is:

Mianmian, you have to consider the mood of your father and your mother.

Jiang Baimian said with a smile:

"Uncle Mei, you also know that I have been running outside, and the tasks I am responsible for are a bit dangerous. The probability of death is estimated to be more than five thousandths."

With that said, she actually didn't discuss with Ms. Xue, pulling Lao Jiang to chop first and then play.

Mei Shouan said with an "um":

"Since you have considered it clearly, then I won't say more, let's just start."

He called in a female researcher and asked her to lead Jiang Baimian to change clothes. After all, he would have to undergo an operation.

With a mentality of insight and research, Jiang Baimian followed the instructions in a stable manner, changed his clothes, put away his backpack, and then underwent a laboratory test. When the results came out, he was injected with a medicine.

Then, she irradiated three kinds of light continuously, and stayed for nearly a quarter of an hour in a small black room with no light and no sound.

This is somewhat different from the process described by Shang Jianyao. It can be seen that the C-14 project team has made many improvements over the past year.

At the end of the experiment, Jiang Baimian entered a room made of silver-white metal. Several medical personnel and a piece of equipment were waiting nearby.

"Lie down on the bed." Mei Shouan pointed to the fixed movable operating bed in the center of the room.

Jiang Baimian nodded, walked over, sat down, and finished in one go.

"Next is the injection of anesthetics." Mei Shouan said briefly.

At the same time, the two researchers entered the room with the medical kit.

"Wait a minute!" Jiang Baimian suddenly raised his hand and sat up.

"What's the matter?" Mei Shouan asked kindly.

Jiang Baimian gave a "uh" and asked Ai Ai:

"Yes, can you play some music?"

The thought of falling into the darkness beyond her control next made her nervous.

Mei Shouan frowned slightly:

"music?"

Jiang Baimian smiled flatteringly:

"Uncle Mei, just play a song to relax my mental state. After the anesthetic injection is finished, you can turn it off.

"The song is in my computer, and the computer is in my backpack. Could you please call someone to bring it for me."

Mei Shouan, who has always performed experiments strictly in accordance with the regulations, originally wanted to say whether this would affect the final result, but when Jiang Baimian said that he could stop the song once he injected the anesthetic, he choked back with the corresponding words.

This is not a problem, we are all talking now, there is no essential difference between playing an extra song... Mei Shouan thought for a moment, and nodded lightly:

"good."

Soon, a researcher took the key handed out by Jiang Baimian and carried her backpack.

According to Mei Shouan's caution, the portable computer was not taken into the room made of silver and white metal and placed at the entrance.

Jiang Baimian only gave a few instructions, and a researcher who was not unfamiliar with computers successfully tuned up the music player.

"Remember my dream when I was young?

"Like a flower that never fades

"Accompany me through the wind and rain

"Look at the impermanence of the world

"Look at the vicissitudes of life..." (Note 1)

The melodious singing echoed, Jiang Baimian took two deep breaths, lay down again, and closed his eyes.

After a few seconds, she secretly narrowed her eyes.

"Why is it so thick?" Jiang Baimian sat up again, pointed to the needle, and blurted out.

"Your quality is far better than ordinary people, and the amount of anesthetic you need is definitely different." The researcher in charge of anesthesia explained.

Jiang Baimian instinctively refuted:

"I'm not an elephant!"

"It's just a little bit more than normal." The researcher in charge of anesthesia was relieved.

Jiang Baimian opened his mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, closed his eyes abruptly, and fell straight.

Seeing is believing!

"Remember my dream when I was young?

"Like a flower that never fades..."

The repetitive singing voice lingered in her mind, making her hold her back and never sit up.

After a little sting, she knew that coma and darkness would inevitably come.

…………

In a daze, light appeared in front of Jiang Baimian's eyes.

She opened her eyes slowly and found that she had come to a strange place.

This is an unusually wide and empty hall, and the surrounding walls are made of black metal shining with cold light.

The upper part of the hall was dim, like the night sky.

In the "sky", there are countless shining stars, which slowly rotate and interweave into 13 dreamy rivers.

Countless stars are shining down, condensing a vague figure in the center of the hall.

The figure's hands spread out, strictly symmetrical, both as if embracing the world, and as if imitating a balance.

"He"'s voice was loud but hollow, echoing in the hall over and over again:

"One price, three gifts."

"One price, three gifts..."

When Jiang Baimian saw this scene, he probably knew where he had come.

"Hall of Stars"!

This is exactly the same as the "Hall of Stars" described by Shang Jianyao!

I awakened... the experiment was successful... Jiang Baimian was overjoyed at first, and then strong doubts arose.

She never felt that she was far more lucky than others, and she had been psychologically prepared for awakening failure. As a result, things went well beyond her imagination.

Do I have any conditions that coincide with the need for awakening? Or, we have deeply mixed into the investigation of the cause of the destruction of the old world, so someone or someone gave a little "blessing"? Jiang Baimian is always smart, and smart people always like to think more and be suspicious.

She calmed down and forced herself to focus on the figure in the middle of the hall.

Now that she has come to this point, no matter what the reason, she can only keep going.

Jiang Baimian, who loves to do all kinds of plans, has already thought about the ability in which field to awaken.

She is more interested, and thinks that it can complement her other characteristics and the specific situation of the group. There are six areas of "Zhuangsheng", "Bodhi", "Dawn", "Last Man", "Broken Mirror" and "Simulation". .

Because there was already an Awakener in the "Zhuang Sheng" field in the team, and the strength was very strong, Jiang Baimian directly excluded this option when he listed it.

In the "Dawn" field, the only costs she knows are intermittent coma, schizophrenia and abnormal five senses. The first two are completely unbearable and she does not plan to choose. In the latter case, taste is the best direction, but then , She feels that she will lose a lot of the joy of being a person-life is so bitter, she can't even eat some good comfort, sooner or later she will be depressed;

In the "last person" field, Jiang Baimian knows that the price is memory loss, sleep disturbance and lack of self-discipline in some aspects. These are all issues that she feels have a great impact on her usual state, so she gave up this field for the second time;

In the realm of "Bodhi", Jiang Baimian does not want to be insane, have abnormal senses, nor can he lie-it is easy to cause big troubles at critical moments. As for the desire-enhancing category, she feels that she can't kill the group members;

Jiang Baimian does not consider her physical paralysis and drowsiness in the "satisfaction" field. The former will directly reduce her combat effectiveness, and the latter will obviously affect her thinking. However, she thinks she can bear the abnormal eyeballs. It's ugly, put it in a relatively back position;

In the field of "broken mirror", photophobia, fear of water, and fear of mirrors all affect daily life too much and are easy to be discovered. Jiang Baimian gave up immediately. The same is true for "claustrophobia", the owner of "virtual world" The method of death is still fresh in her memory. The remaining face is blind and road idiot. The former is easy to be indifferent to us and too dangerous, but the latter can be considered...

When thinking about it, Jiang Baimian quickly went through several options including abnormal taste, fixed eyeballs, and road idiots.

After ten seconds, she made a decision.

"Road crazy"!

This is a price at which she can rely on the auxiliary chip in the biological prosthesis to reduce the negative impact~www.readwn.com~ Although this will probably reduce her ability to observe and remember the surrounding environment at the same time, she can watch it on important occasions. Remember", not afraid of forgetting, and will not make things wrong.

In addition, always working in teams can also effectively avoid problems.

Huh... Jiang Baimian sighed, walked to the front of the figure, raised his head, and said loudly:

"I traded my idiot for my ability."

As soon as her voice fell, three stars fell rapidly in the sky.

They turned into different light groups and cast them on Jiang Baimian's body.

There are some words in each of these light groups, they are:

"Space hallucinations", "object ignorance", "irritation disorders".
