Chapter 649: Keeping the Dream (Part 2)

 Placebo is not a good word.

The "veteran" never thought that the rest of his life would be bound to it.

Life in the past has become blurry, distorted, and fragmented due to the problem of aberration infection. And because there is no effective treatment, "placebo" has some meaning.

"A 'placebo' that can have a substantial effect must have a deep mechanism that we still cannot understand...although it may not be a logic that humans can understand."

When Bu Qingwen said this, he was sitting on a swivel chair, spinning slowly; the paintbrush that almost never left his body was flying up and down between his fingers.

She will draw instant inspiration on paper, walls and anywhere she can put pen to paper at any time; of course, she will also draw ultra-complex structures that are incomprehensible in the three-dimensional workspace.

Many people in the laboratory complained that Bu Qingwen often intervened in problems in other professional fields as a "layman" and used her designer's logic to deal with them.

However, she is also a "very talented" person. No matter what ideas she puts forward, she can always make it work in the end.

Luo Zhongheng calls it "talent", a super talent of "structured thinking".

Bu Qingwen disagreed. She didn't like the word "talent", not because she was being pretentious, but because she really had no talent in the field of extraordinary power.

In other words, slow.

Unlike Luo Zhongheng.

"Uncle Shou, you are a talentless person like me. Regardless of whether you encounter aberration infection or not, it will be very hard in this era... Just go away!"

Bu Qingwen pushed away Luo Zhongheng who was leaning towards her: "To prepare for a rainy day, we need a breakthrough:

“From nothing to zero, the nature changes;

“From zero to one, the world changes.

"Yes, as long as we can leave even the most insignificant traces in this field and accumulate them bit by bit, we may be able to change it.

"It was originally impossible, but the world has changed a long time ago. So we can proceed cautiously and tentatively.

"Even if it starts as a poor imitation."

At that time, Luo Zhongheng sighed: "You all know that it is clumsy. Its function has not been fully understood yet."

"Do it first and then change it. Thank you, Master Treasure Hunt!"

With that said, Bu Qingwen drew a small red flower on Luo Zhongheng's face: "This is your reward!"

The "veteran" determined that he had mistakenly entered the scene where a young couple was flirting, but no matter what, not long after this conversation, Bu Qingwen's "placebo" appeared.

As she said, it is for "those without talent".

But at that time, the "veteran" really didn't expect that the so-called "placebo" was really a "comfort" in nature - it was not a drug, or even had anything to do with the material world, but a certain thing drawn by Bu Qingwen on the spiritual level.

A visualization structure.

Moreover, it cannot be done by one person, it requires many people to work together.

The "veteran" did not refuse this absurd design. He had already understood it in the wilderness:

Whoever wants you to die, stay away;

Whoever can make you live, follow him!

Luo Yuandao, Luo Zhongheng and Bu Qingwen, this family saved his life and the lives of many others. In the wilderness, this is the hardest currency and credibility.

Facts have proved that Bu Qingwen’s self-reported

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"Imitating design" really works.

With a bit of patchwork breathing, guidance, yoga and other old methods that can clear the mind, in the spiritual world, the visualization structure was built bit by bit, and there was indeed a weak feedback.

If one person succeeds, it is not obvious yet; if ten people succeed, it will be much easier for the people behind to imitate and learn.

Soon, people using "placebo" covered several homeless settlements around the wilderness laboratory.

In the beginning, it was only those people who encountered aberration infection and were still lingering in the second and early stages of the third phase. They were still sane and had not completely turned into monsters or died. They were relatively limited.

But later, as it became relatively easy to get started, some people who were not infected also joined in, and eventually a certain trend formed.

The number of people ranges from hundreds to thousands, or even tens of thousands.

When people's consciousness is gathered together, it is chaotic, but there is a small but clear feedback. When it comes back, although it cannot fundamentally change the state of aberration infection, it can relieve the mental pressure caused by it to a certain extent.

There are obviously fewer monsters that are driven crazy by deformation.

According to Luo Yuandao, this method also regulates the state of the nervous system.

As a result, Bu Qingwen completed another amazing design.

Since then, Bu Qingwen has continued to make adjustments to the "placebo" so that when people use it, their consciousness becomes clearer and clearer. It seems that they can also receive all kinds of strange messages, perhaps between people who use them together.

Conscious exchange?

Anyway, it was as fantastic as a dream that you might wake up from at any time.

And then... this dream was shattered.

The wilderness laboratory was attacked, and Bu Qingwen left her son behind in the life-sustaining warehouse, leaving the last figure outside the warehouse to say goodbye to this changed world.

Luo Yuandao, who was "forever tired", finally couldn't resist anymore, went completely crazy, and was taken to court because of the so-called "human experiment".

The laboratory quickly collapsed under the turmoil of people's hearts. Luo Zhongheng left with his father, and then came the wave of "vagrants returning to the city" that swept across.

Regardless of whether he wants to or not, whether he can or cannot, the environment that the "veteran" has finally become familiar with falls apart again.

He was wrapped up in the tide of the times, from the wilderness to Spring City, from Spring City to Sakae; from a life-saving experimental platform to a fatal experimental platform... There are fewer and fewer familiar people around him, and those who believe in "placebo"

The number of people is also greatly reduced.

However, among the group of people familiar to the "veteran", the proportion of using "placebo" is getting higher and higher.

Because those who don’t do this are basically removed from the experimental table.

As for where he went, God may know.

The remaining people were named the "Seven Cross-cutting Parts" and lived in confusion in the Pingmao District of Bancheng. They frequently used "placebo" to keep themselves alive as much as possible, so much so that they became a kind of survival method.

must.

The "veteran" thought it would continue like this until the end of his life or sudden death.

But one day, without any mental preparation at all, the dream-like state of collective consciousness suddenly received an unprecedented and meaningful signal.

It's like a radio. It receives information in the corresponding frequency band. Although it is still intermittent and it is very difficult to understand, the communication that is almost touching the fingertips is real.

After a series of adjustments, both parties involved in the hair extension discovered

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The existence of each other has also been discovered, and they are both using the same method.

Everyone is trying their best to get closer. Of course, the other side can do more. In this process, the other side is always the one taking the initiative to spread the word.

Gradually, the "veterans" learned that it turned out to be a place called "Deep Blue World", and it was not a kind place. Hundreds of thousands of "miners" were detained there and underwent large-scale human transformation in order to engage in certain dangerous activities.

Mining work of mineral deposits.

As for why they were also using "placebo" and finally contacted them, there is no clear answer. The "veteran" guessed that there might be participants from the settlements around the laboratory, or even people he knew.

Someone got there and spread the corresponding knowledge there.

Obviously, the spread of "placebo" in the "Deep Blue World" is faster than ever before, and the user group is also unprecedentedly large.

It is said that its scope of use covers almost every miner.

Although they are a group of unlucky guys who are in a worse situation than the "veterans" and others, with a base of several hundred thousand people there, there are a lot of talents inside.

"Placebo" has achieved unprecedented development there. However, the original name has been changed. It is no longer called "Placebo", but "Shelter".

The miners who used the "shelter" also established a rather religious organization:

Order of Souls.

"Veterans" don't care about this. If they are not in the corresponding environment, they are not qualified to make irresponsible remarks. If they call it "shelter", just call it "shelter".

He buried the "placebo" deep in his heart, which was still a kind of comfort.

In any case, establishing contact with the Soul Cult is the most promising period after "returning to the city".

Versions of "Shelter" change quickly.

After all, it is the collective wisdom of hundreds of thousands of people, and it is said that there is also the finishing touch of a genius leader. The "veterans" have also established a branch of the Soul Cult. It seems that there are other branches in the world, which are similar to "

A situation like "veteran"

The establishment of these branches has played a very important role in the research of "shelter" in the deep blue world.

Let’s study together and find a way out,

Veterans have gradually transformed from old haters who have forgotten all their college knowledge to professionals in the corresponding fields.

In Bancheng Pingmao District, the deep blue mineral deposits, and other places, although everyone is not free, they are staying together in the "sanctuary" with increasingly clear exchanges of consciousness.

Either cheer each other up, or fully imagine and chase a bright dream.

Application methods that can be used in the real world have been developed one by one, such as the extraction method here in Hengduan Qibu; they have even begun to touch wider band signals, and began the intense and exciting work of receiving and deciphering...



But just when hope was full, the "shelter" suddenly collapsed.

It was last October, when a deadly traitor appeared within the Soul Religion. Even earlier, some people had already infiltrated, and some of the new achievements of the Religion were poison that had already been planted.

The Order of Souls collapsed almost overnight.

The "veterans" have almost completely lost contact with the headquarters of the Soul Religion. Even if they occasionally make contact, it is a warning that is repeatedly transmitted mechanically.

Then, the Soul Cult appeared on Earth and became a "terrorist organization" that everyone wanted to fight.
