"I always feel that this is not very reliable."
"Instead of risking to conduct an experiment with unknown results, it is better to just make do with it. His vital signs are already normal, but his appearance has changed."
In the biology laboratory at the ghost base, Winston, a gorilla wearing a white research suit, stood beside Merlin with his limbs, looking at the closed laboratory in front of him that was being examined last.
A super-large silver biomass has been placed in the laboratory, and two biologists, Lillian and Moira, are debugging the biomass.
This thing was designed by Winston. This genetically modified orangutan is a genius in mechanical design. It is currently helping sl.d to upgrade daily equipment as a researcher.
Especially the jet pack it designed by itself, Merlin hopes that Winston can shrink the pack again and transform it into new equipment for field agents.
A silent, portable short-distance flight device that can be added with a certain amount of firepower would be better.
When facing the evaluation of Winston's weird orangutan wearing glasses, Merlin said:
"Although you are wise, Winston, you still find it difficult to understand human stubbornness on certain issues. Everyone has something to value. For George, changing back to the form of a normal person is his persistent pursuit. He understands the risks of this experiment himself, but he still makes a decision."
Merlin stopped, he said:
"This is a decision he made after careful consideration and we should not stop it."
"Do you really think this is a good idea?"
Winston glanced at Merlin and said:
"I heard, this is very painful?"
"Well, extreme pain."
Merlin pushed his glasses and said:
"If the drug is not assisted, it may cause permanent damage to the human consciousness and may cause emotional loss. For people like George who have extremely strong mental power, this painful sensory stimulation will only be more delicate, just like the cells in the body being torn apart and recombined."
"But the good news is that he only needs to go through the first half of this experiment to turn the alienated body back into its original normal human form."
"Aren't you worried that something would go wrong with this experiment, which would lead to a drastic change in George's character?"
Winston said:
"Pain can change a person. As I remember, Grude did not hate humans so much from the beginning. It also developed hatred for humans in repeated pain experiments."
"These two are different, Winston."
Merlin explained:
"Gruder was forced to accept, while George was destined to pursue it. The starting point was different, and the result was different."
"Besides, with George's current ability, if I don't help him, he will look for it himself. Instead of letting him come up with some unreliable crazy solutions, it's better to let him give it a try in this controllable experiment."
Another point is that Merlin didn't say it.
After George's experiment on intelligent brain transformation, his soul was actually not very stable. That experiment seemed to inject some other things into his soul, some not so kind-hearted thinking.
Although George has not shown too extreme ideas or behaviors yet, Merlin has to prepare for it in advance.
With George's perfect control over data and machinery, once he gets out of control, it will immediately cause a terrible disaster in modern society.
Although the mutation transformation of the witch hunter is painful, it can effectively enhance the soul's resistance to abnormal states.
As long as George can survive, his unstable soul will become stable. If George collapses and loses control during the experiment, then Merlin has a suitable reason to intervene in this situation, and use the forgetting spell to erase George's painful memories, or simply reshape his personality.
It is like a surging flood. Instead of waiting until the soul's embankment cannot resist the collapse, it is better to drain the flow in advance. When the problem is not at its most dangerous point, solve this problem in advance.
Of course, these dark thoughts are something Merlin cannot say.
George now trusts him because of his two life-saving favors, and Merlin also hopes that things will not go to an uncontrollable step.
Big Head George is not a natural villain. He is an ordinary and even somewhat mediocre soul. After gaining strength, he is still very likely to go on the right path.
The premise is that fate will give him a chance to choose.
"Click"
During the activity of the glass door, George, wearing a gray tights, sat on a suspended chair and slowly floated into the laboratory.
His expression was not nervous, and there was a kind of thrill of eagerness in his eyes.
"Are you going to start?"
George's big head looked at Merlin and Winston. Merlin looked at the time and said to him:
"It's almost George. I'll confirm for the last time. Are you really ready? If you feel uncomfortable, we can postpone the experiment."
"No, no, just today."
George shook his big head like a large shaking doll, he said to Merlin:
"It's hard to make up your mind, but I've made the decision and that's it."
"Then go."
Merlin looked at the super large creature cabin that had been debugged in front of him, and he said to George:
"Grudge your teeth and hold on. If you can't hold on, we will stop the experiment immediately."
"Don't stop!"
George said stubbornly:
"After the experiment begins, I will close my heart."
He pointed at his head with his short hand and said to Merlin:
"I just learned that I was completely closed and would not be stimulated by the outside world, and I might feel pain, but I think I should be able to persevere until the experiment is completed, Mr. Merlin."
Big head George looked at Merlin and he pleaded in a low voice:
"If the experiment fails, you don't have to wake me up and kill me just."
"you"
Merlin didn't know how to respond to this request.
George looked at him with a calm look, and he said:
"In recent times, I have opened my eyes every day and looked at the big head and the deformed monster in the mirror. I feel very painful. I am trying to accept this new self, but sorry, Mr. Merlin, I can't do it."
"I am not as strong as you, not as strong as others, and can survive the discussions of others. I am just a coward, just a mediocre person. I can't accept that kind of life. If the experiment fails, if I can't recover, it's better to die just by dying."
"I have even thought of the epitaph."
George manipulated the suspended chair and walked around the air. He waved his hands and said to Merlin:
"There is George Talton buried here. His mediocre birth, mediocre growth, mediocre death. His only contribution to the world is to prove that fragile will cannot support lofty ideals."
"Don't be so pessimistic."
Winston, the gorilla standing aside, said to George:
"I have calculated all possible results, and I have come up with the probability of your successful completion of the experiment is"
“21.76%”
Before Winston could finish speaking, George gave a precise probability. He looked at Winston condescendingly, with a strange smile on his big head, and he said:
"It's not only you calculated, Winston, I've also calculated the probability of one-fifth many times."
George manipulated the suspended chair and flew towards the closed experimental cabin inside. With the help of a robotic arm, he lifted himself from the suspended chair and put it into a specially made biological cabin. At the moment the biological cabin was closed, George twisted his big head and looked at Ms. Moira, who was standing next to the biological cabin and holding the controller.
He blinked and said to Moira:
"Dr. Oderlan, there are some things I've always wanted to tell you that I mean, if I successfully complete the experiment and return to normal, can I have dinner with you? I've booked a restaurant."
"oh?"
Ms. Moira, who is now in her 30s, showed an interesting smile. She looked up and down at George's strange head and said:
"I have no interest in normal people, Mr. George. Of course, if you are willing to let me take some of your blood samples and bone marrow samples for research, I don't want to agree."
"Huh"
George showed a strange expression on his big face, and he said:
"Another woman who dedicated herself to science, OK, I agree."
He said:
"I wish I could be reborn in the form of a normal person."
"Click"
Amid the sound of mechanical collision inside the glass lid, the biocabin closed at the next moment, and several needles poked out from the inside of the biocabin and pierced into George's body. George's big head closed his eyes, and he soon became silent, as if he had lost all consciousness.
He closed his mind himself, which effectively weakened the physical pain he sensed.
Outside the experimental cabin, Merlin gestured to Lillian and Moira. The next moment, Lillian put the mutation inducer and neutralizer into the gap in the biological cabin, while Moira glanced at the big head under the glass lid, then reached out and pressed the controller in her hand.
"Let's go."
Merlin said to Winston beside him:
“Unless you want to stay here to appreciate a poor person suffering, we should leave.”
"I'm not interested in pain."
Winston shook his head, and the soft black mane gorilla followed Merlin and left the underground laboratory. They walked all the way to the ground, talking.
“About the reduction of time accelerator.”
Winston said to Merlin in the upward elevator:
"I'm trying and there's a breakthrough, but it's still a long way from the size you're asking for, bracelet-sized instruments, which can be done as a long-term project."
"Don't worry."
Merlin put his hands in his pockets and said to Winston:
"I don't need it urgently. You can change it slowly. Just notify me if there is any news."
As soon as Merlin finished speaking, a red light appeared on the lenses in front of his eyes, like a warning.
"The space on the way was detected!"
Icarus' warning sound rang in Merlin's ears, causing Merlin to subconsciously pull up Winston, and the two of them were almost close to the edge of the upward elevator.
The next moment, accompanied by the blue light, a figure covered in blood broke through the space and hit Meilin's feet.
This scene scared Winston, causing the orangutan to clench his fists subconsciously and smashed towards the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, but was stopped by Merlin.
He recognized the miserable figure in front of him.
This is Gordon.
Gordon, the Eyeless, is the leader of the Inhuman organization ‘The Afterlife’.
Merlin squatted down and flipped Gordon over. The Inhuman, who could be jumping back and forth around the world, was injured. His chest had abnormal bulges, which was the injury caused by the broken sternum.
Judging from the outline of the scar, it should be the injury caused by blunt weapon bombardment.
The person who waved the weapon must be full of power. Gordon himself was hit by the nostrils and ears bleeding, and his consciousness was already very weak.
"Godor! Hey, wake up!"
Merlin reached out and patted Gordon on the cheek, trying to make him more awake. This guy had no eyes, and Merlin had no way to judge his current state, and he couldn't even use the soul-catching curse.
"Ahem"
Gordon coughed in pain, he struggled and said to Merlin:
"Save them, the messenger is in danger."
"messenger?"
Merlin asked in confusion:
"Who is that? Who attacked you?"
"I don't know if I forgot, I don't remember, who are you? Where am I?"
The guy seemed to have blurred his consciousness. He was talking nonsense and trying to stand up, but was forcibly pressed to the spot by Merlin.
Merlin seemed to have guessed the truth of the matter, and he asked:
"Do you still remember who you are?"
"Who am I?"
Gordon asked in a daze:
"Do you know?"
"Unlucky guy."
Merlin reached out and threw a sleeping spell on Gordon. He stood up, and Winston beside him asked curiously:
"What's wrong with this person?"
"He was washed away his memory. After teleported, his memory disappeared quickly, his cognition and perception were weakened, and he even forgot his name."
"He only remembers to let us save an inexplicable 'messenger'."
Merlin looked at the sleepy Gordon and said:
"It's not certain whether this kind of amnesia is done by magic or other methods."
"But there is no doubt that I have something to do again."
