It couldn't figure out why Shen Qi wouldn't agree.
This is a great cause of dedication to science.
It is the eternal kingdom it has been pursuing.
Originally, it thought that after Shen Qi experienced such a change, he would understand its good intentions, understand its ideals, and be the one who understands it.
However the fact is...
He is still as ignorant as everyone else...
It actually hopes that ignorant mortals will understand the end of science, the other side of God...
It looked at the growing figure and the hot white light without any intention of dodging.
"Sure enough, on the road to exploring the mysteries of the world, scientists are destined to be lonely..."
...
Bang!
Shen Qi used the momentum of the dive to push it to the ground, and the red crystal heart fell from its hand.
He pressed his right hand on its mask, causing it to collide violently with the steel corridor. With a crisp shattering sound, the black lens on the mask was shattered.
Due to the excessive force, its entire body sank into the steel corridor.
Wait! This is wrong!
Although Shen Qi's attack was sudden, this guy didn't resist at all, just like a prisoner on the execution ground, waiting for the guillotine to fall.
Shen Qi felt that this was very strange, but the hot white light on his right hand was directed towards the glasses part of the mask.
Its body twitched for a while, and then became silent.
Um?
There is no prompt from the system assistant!
Is this guy human?!
Shen Qi was shocked, and then suddenly pulled off the beak mask.
After seeing the face under the mask, Shen Qi was immediately stunned.
Because he had just met this person not long ago, and it was the delivery boy who wanted to buy him a soda. However, the system assistant did not prompt at that time, indicating that the delivery boy was still an ordinary human being at that time.
only......
"You said you were really in danger of escaping. I even blocked a disaster for you, but I didn't expect that you still fell into the hands of a weirdo." Shen Qi was a little dumbfounded.
At this moment, he felt something strange in the nearby space.
[Announcement! Space ripples have been discovered, consistent with the previously detected energy attributes!]
"What?"
Shen Qi looked over subconsciously and found a small vortex gathering in the sky, with a strange aura permeating the vortex.
Suddenly, a wisp of gray gas floated out of the delivery boy's body and flew towards the whirlpool.
Shen Qi narrowed his eyes, and quickly held his right hand in the shape of a gun. Hot white light appeared on the tip of his index finger, and then fired out with a "biubiu" sound.
The additional effect of [Purification] is radiation.
It can allow the power of purification to spread out like radiation.
But as long as you add a little range compression and a little direction guidance, you can shoot an energy beam as thick as your index finger like a laser gun.
The hot white light penetrated the wisp of gray gas, just like a spark hitting a jar full of hydrogen and burning instantly.
However, most of the gas entered the vortex, and only the second half of the gas was burned out.
[Strange record: Scientist (disabled): part of an unknown spiritual energy body. 】
[Weird record +1]
[Energy body obtained: 1000]
[Energy body: 2600]
the scientist?
Shen Qi looked at the prompts from the system assistant and was a little surprised. So that guy is called a "scientist"?
But what does the unknown spiritual energy body refer to?
[Notice! Spiritual energy body: A conscious energy group that is freed from the constraints of the physical body. It can be regarded as a living body in the form of energy such as ghosts, undead, and spiritual bodies. 】
Shen Qi raised his eyebrows.
The explanation of the system feedback surprised him a little.
A conscious energy blob?
Isn’t it what the monks call the “primordial spirit”?
Even if the physical body dies, as long as the soul is still there, it can be reborn. Is this what it means?
Then he looked sharply at the delivery boy lying in the pit, "What will happen to the guy who is parasitized by the spiritual energy body?"
[Warning! Body occupation, consciousness deprivation, energy plundering. 】
"..."
If the good guy says that, doesn't that mean he's dead?
At this moment, a flash of red appeared in his peripheral vision.
Shen Qi took the red crystal heart in his hand.
[Items made by scientists using strange means. The process involves alchemy, magic patterns, modern technology, etc. Since the host may not be able to understand it, we will not explain it in detail. 】
[The heart of a scientist: It contains huge energy, providing energy for the evolution of living organisms. Due to the technical reasons involved, it has unknown changes. 】
The heart of a scientist?
Shen Qi muttered.
In the recording screen, he once saw the bird's beak, which was when the scientist stuffed a red crystal into the body of the factory owner. But at that time, it was only the size of a thumb, but now it is a latitude that cannot be grasped by one hand. ...
[Notice! The surface of this item is engraved with the Philosopher's Stone refining formula, which extracts the life energy of creatures large and small in the mist and stores it in the heart. 】
How to refine the Philosopher's Stone?
Isn't that alchemy?
Does magic still exist in this world?
[Warning! Magic, witchcraft, supernatural powers, and Taoism are all languages that command the energy of the world. 】
"..."
Isn’t this a science fiction world? Why do these magical things appear?
【Notice! Unable to explain.】
"..."
Forget it, forget it, make peace with it as it comes.
Shen Qi held the red crystal heart in one hand and looked at the delivery boy with the other, feeling a little confused.
According to the system assistant, this heart should be able to bring the delivery boy back to life, but if he does, he will lose this treasure.
What to do? Do you want to save him?
【Report! Unable to answer.】
Shut up! I didn’t ask you!
"Can this heart save him?" Shen Qi asked in confusion.
[The characteristics of the target life form are gradually declining. The ‘scientist’s heart’ can quickly replenish life energy, but it has the possibility of unknown changes. 】
"I'm asking if he can be saved. Can you stop talking about other things? You can tell with your eyes that his condition is not good." Looking at the words that appeared in his eyes, Shen Qi said helplessly. The system assistant couldn't tell anything. Good but not very smart,
[Warning! The probability of survival is 50%, and the possibility of mutation is 70%. 】
"..."
“Is it only half possible to survive?
Wait, wouldn’t 70% mutation be too high? Even though we can gain energy bodies by destroying them, it would be too much of a waste of that heart, right?”
Shen Qi couldn't accept this result, and then he asked again:
"What if I intervened in the evolution of the fur ball the same way last time? The probability of survival will increase a lot, right?"
[Notice! 2000 energy bodies are consumed to assist the target in evolving, the survival probability is increased to 90%, and the possibility of mutation is reduced to 20%. Do you want to execute it? 】
"Wait...wait a minute!"
"2000 energy bodies?!"
Shen Qi was stunned for a moment.
"How much energy do I have now?"
[Energy body: 2600]
"I only have 2,600 points? Doesn't that mean that after saving him, I only have 600 points left? I feel like this is a bit of a loss..."
Shen Qi touched his chin and muttered to himself that he himself had nothing to do with the delivery boy, so there was no point in wasting so much energy on someone who had nothing to do with him...
At least he doesn't think of himself as a broad-minded person.
That’s right!
He is actually a very selfish person. This guy said he would treat himself to a soda. How could he die if he did not fulfill his promise?
I asked him if he agreed!
"Confirm, I want him to fulfill his promise..."
Shen Qi slowly placed the red crystal heart on the delivery boy's chest, and his right hand lit up with a hot white light...
