The off-road vehicle started, heading south first, around the Huanhai Expressway, and toward the western forest wall area.
In the car, Ronan was also reminded by Moya and called his aunt. There was a "war and chaos" outside, so he had to report that he was safe.
The call didn't last long, and it ended in a minute or two. Everything on the phone was as usual, but Ronan couldn't help but scratch his brow, which had been knotted for some time.
You know, the entire Xia City is now under the surveillance of his soul cloak. With Ronan pouring his thoughts into it, all changes in the family situation cannot be hidden from his eyes.
At this time, my uncle and aunt were sitting in the living room at home, both of them silent. After ending the call, my aunt Luo Shuqing kept fiddling with the bracelet on her wrist. Her expression could be said to be calm or depressed, but it was not like the appearance on the phone.
So peaceful.
As for his uncle Mo Haihang, he was sitting aside, holding his silly, big, black and thick encrypted mobile workstation, and operating it. He still had an e-cigarette in his mouth, and the water mist was steaming and sizzling.
This scene reminded Ronan of the moment when he "eavesdropped" on the conversation between his uncle and aunt some time ago.
"Them, and Moya... where did their thoughts go?" Ronan spoke subconsciously, not wanting to hear the answer, but just wanting to ease his mood a little.
Qin Yikun, who was next to him, thought carefully and replied: "Judging from Miss Moya's performance, maybe she thinks that Mr. Luo, your research results have been sold at a good price, or you have a very capable investor."
people."
Ronan was stunned for a moment and turned his head.
Qin Yikun said softly: "The research on extraordinary power has made great progress in recent years, and it also represents a certain trend. Therefore, in the outer circle of the outside world, a lot of capital has been active, and they will always keep an eye on some potential projects.
Invest in various ways to gain connections and try to get a share of the pie... Of course, once capital is injected, whether it will be dominated by people with ability or capital will require a detailed analysis of the specific situation."
Ronan said "Oh". When Qin Yikun said this, he remembered that Octopus and Baoyan had told him similar things. Especially Octopus, his latest paper has not yet been finalized, and there are already pharmaceutical companies
came to our door, hoping to jointly develop related targeted drugs. It is said that the amount of the gambling agreement is quite considerable.
In this sense, it is not impossible to say that Ronan's research results can be sold at a good price...
"That's a good reason." Ronan was a little moved.
If more articles are written on this, and his situation in the other world is gradually transplanted, it seems to be no problem. Instead of letting the family think wildly, it is better to guide it in a controllable direction. Anyway, my uncle and aunt accept this matter.
The speed should be much better than ordinary people who have no idea.
He asked Qin Yikun for his opinion: "Brother Qin, what do you think of the topic 'Research on Targeted Drugs Constructed from Format Theory-Based Containers'? Is it feasible to use it to attract investment?"
Qin Yikun shook his head: "I'm an amateur at this."
Ronan became excited: "I think it's quite reliable. There are actually projects. Brother Squidward has made good progress. I can ask Sister Yueyin to help me draw up a plan later..."
As Ronan's accumulated power was released and soared, he already had a prominent position in the world and the corresponding right to speak.
Well, maybe it was because of the praise from his colleagues in the Xiacheng branch, but Ronan felt that launching the official format theory and clearing his grandfather's name could be put on the agenda in the near future.
Although "format theory" itself still has various problems, He Yueyin also warned that it deviates greatly from the mainstream research direction in the world. But with the living example of Ronan in front, how can it attract some people?
People, join the study of format theory, and form new results - you know, in the future, Ronan will definitely be one of the most eye-catching focuses in the world, unless he is killed neatly.
Squidward is a success story, and Ronan hopes there will be hundreds of thousands more like him!
In that case, grandpa...
Ronan's sudden excitement suffocated slightly, and he inevitably remembered the hospital's diagnosis of his grandfather's condition. He subconsciously observed his grandfather's current situation through the soul cloak.
In that ward, the emaciated old man was wrapped in a thick blanket, sitting on the bed, staring at the freezing rain falling outside.
Ronan didn't know what this rain, this city, this world looked like in his grandfather's eyes.
Severe schizophrenia symptoms turn everything in front of the old man into the harshest and most realistic hallucination. In this irreversibly distorted world, the most rigorous rationality has to succumb to the patient's instinctive feelings, creating an absurd
The logic - even for patients, it is still rigorous, thorough and impeccable.
The truth is so sad.
Ronan's soul cloak gave him an astonishing range of perception, and it also made it impossible for him to avoid this reality. He didn't even have a chance to buffer. Perhaps it was the influence of his continuous improvement in cultivation and his brilliant achievements. At this moment, Ronan had a kind of
The wonderful confidence and premonition may still be illusions - in fact, this is not something that suddenly appeared, but was formed a long time ago:
If, just if. If grandpa has been insisting on the thinking logic of format theory, then the only person who can communicate with him may be Ronan himself. Even if he can't now, as his understanding of format theory and the application further deepen, sooner or later he will
You will find a docking window.
Ronan once wanted to try using "psychic"-style pictures, but now that he thinks about it, it is really unrealistic. Because of the worsening of schizophrenia, a picture that is complete in the eyes of normal people, God knows what it will look like in the eyes of his grandfather.
Only through spiritual connection in the true sense can we dig out those little possibilities.
Thinking of this, Ronan turned to Ruiwen and said, "When you feel a little cleaner in two days, I will take you to see my grandpa. There is a new person in the family, so I have to tell him."
Raven listened quietly and didn't say much. Ronan knew that she didn't refuse, which was enough.
Ronan let out a long breath, leaned back on the chair, and his eyelids drowsed slightly, but when he tried to open them again, he felt surprisingly heavy. In an instant, a deep black tide rushed over him, almost engulfing him.
He tried hard to open his eyes twice, but he still hadn't opened them. He almost wanted to fall asleep. However, he was suddenly startled in the trance, exerted force violently, and broke out in a cold sweat, which finally dissipated some of his sleepiness.
"Mr. Luo?"
Qin Yikun noticed Ronan's mental state and was a little worried: "You should sleep in the car for a while. It has been almost forty hours since I slept."
"It's okay, I was just thinking about something." Ronan told a completely unconvincing lie, and then said, "Open the car window and let some air flow."
This did not meet the security requirements, but Gaode in the driver's seat still did as he was told. As the car windows were lowered, the airflow caused by high-speed driving, wrapped in freezing rain and cold air, poured in one after another, making Ronan energetic.
With a start, the sleepiness just now disappeared a lot.
However, he knew very well that this was a temporary phenomenon.
Not sleeping for forty hours did not cause him to feel sleepy. With his current level of cultivation, it wouldn't be a big deal if he didn't sleep for four days.
However, the current situation is different after all, and the root cause of everything is still the soul cloak that he spreads out with all his strength.
For Ronan, as long as its closed-system large-scale production line continues to operate, the coverage area of the soul cloak can continue to expand outward. At this time, not counting the area on land, just outside the sea of Xia City, it has been launched
It has traveled nearly 600 kilometers and shows no signs of stopping.
It was precisely because of this that Ronan was able to accurately locate Jin Tong in the vast sea, set up an ambush, and kill the seriously injured extraordinary species in the shortest possible time.
But expanding the scope is a natural result of his closed system and special intervention methods. Just like stuffing things into a hard drive, the structure is there, it is a matter of course, and everyone can do it.
However, the difficulty of sorting out a consistent logic from a hard drive full of information and performing efficient calculations in a timely manner has increased by more than one level.
In the cloud world, the expansion range of Ronan's soul cloak is much wider than here, but the relatively monotonous environment and limited goals there do not require any calculation at all.
But in Xiacheng, he has to sort out and process all kinds of information in this vast area at high speed - including but not limited to twenty traffic layers, twenty-four administrative districts, dozens of professional employment agencies, and hundreds of dangerous worlds.
Targets, as well as countless dangerous nodes and locations... After all, no one knows when and how a fatal crisis will befall him or any of his closest relatives.
Ronan undoubtedly felt guilty for such a situation. This was not just a matter of energy and ability, but also straightforward pressure and depression.
Ronan was thinking about so many things about his family, and quite a few of them were just the distortion of this pressure. He was now under a lot of pressure and mentally exhausted, but in front of others, especially Ruiwen, he had to
Stay calm, otherwise how can you show your due responsibility?
However, days like this can't last long...
In order to avoid being trapped again, Ronan deliberately diverted his attention. He rolled his eyes and stopped at the central control screen in the front row, where a video program was playing, which Gaode opened after getting in the car.
Gaode and Qin Yikun are both professionals with extremely high professional standards. Usually when driving and performing tasks, they will not be distracted by other matters. But now they are paying attention to this program because it is sensitive and closely related to the task.
What was shown on the program at this time was the bones hills floating on the sea in a certain area outside Xia City.
Ronan also had nothing to say: "Is that Zhan Ji still live broadcasting?"
Qin Yikun replied: "Now we only provide live broadcasts, mainly expert analysis..."
While speaking, Gaode turned up the sound of the program and imported the picture to the audio-visual system in the back seat.
Without the immersive and exciting scenes, the appeal of Zhan Ji's live broadcast will be lost by more than half. Now faced with this extremely topical but without straightforward answer, it is the turn of various experts
Come on stage and show off your talent for talking nonsense.
It stands to reason that who created the White Bone Mountain should be the core question. However, currently a large part of the energy of experts from all walks of life is not on this. Instead, they are engaged in a heated debate around the "Jinjinhao" under the White Bone Mountain.
debate.
This dual-purpose ship has a strong symbolic significance. Especially as the search work continues and more and more corpses of members of the hardware hunting group are found in the surrounding waters, the topic inevitably points to the most critical issue.
point:
It is certain that the Hardware Hunting Group is almost completely wiped out. But has its real soul, Jin Tong, melted into this hill of bones, with no bones left? Or is it just the incredible ability of the extraordinary species?
Immunity?
Whether it is life or death, survival or death, determines the nature of this matter. In addition, even if the number of deaths is multiplied by ten, it does not have decisive significance.
For the Xiacheng branch, the focus is different. Qin Yikun whispered: "Judging from the information from various airlines and various internal transportation points, I am afraid there will be a large number of people entering the country in the next few days. This
This live broadcast event generated less intimidation than expected. If His Majesty the Emperor Wu could... ugh!"
At this point, Qin Yikun also felt that it was useless to talk more, so he shook his head and stopped talking.
However, Ronan already understood what he meant and shook his head, but the meaning was different: "Sixteen billion, two out of a thousand, most people will be tempted, but those who are tempted have the ability to act.
, it’s always a small part.”
Qin Yikun was surprised by Ronan's statement: "The problem is that since these people have the power to take action, they will not let go easily. If this momentum cannot be curbed..."
"That only proves that we haven't killed enough of these capable guys."
Qin Yikun was speechless.
Ronan's eyelids trembled slightly, still controlled by sleepiness, and his voice was a little ethereal: "A few days ago, I attended the funerals of Charlie and Tian Lai, and I wanted to understand a question: Since we are all in a social relationship,
In a large network, a certain lack will cause discomfort, and people will habitually make fuss about this network. Those people are like this to me, and if I want to fight back, killing a few people may affect a lot of people.
You will still have to work hard in the future. Brother Qin, do you think this is true?"
"..."
Qin Yikun was unable to respond, and Gao De also looked through the rearview mirror: Did this young genius in the eye of the storm finally show his concern?
The lowered eyelids covered Ronan's pupils, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.
On the show, the "dead camp" and the "lively camp" are still arguing. If they can take action, both sides will definitely beat the dog's brains out first.
In the noisy and lively atmosphere, Ronan was only thinking: Fortunately, there is a phenomenon in this world called "people of the same kind flock together, and birds flock together."
*******
The freezing rain falls endlessly, and the "high-altitude layer" with good infrastructure is indifferent to this. However, on the recycling layer, watching the rolling mud and water form a line and fall from the sky, it must not be that wonderful.
According to statistics, 14 of the 24 administrative districts in Xiacheng have recycling floors, especially the western urban area and the four satellite cities, because this is the door to the wilderness and the place where urban garbage is dumped (in various senses)
The sewage outlet is also the circulation place for some gray capital.
Opening a welfare home here is actually a very subtle matter, and it is easy for people to misunderstand. If you know something about it, ask what the code of the "dark web" is? If you are impatient, you may make a direct inquiry.
But then again, even in Nancheng District, where order is good and there is no recycling layer, there is still a lot of evil hidden in the Santa Maria Charity Church.
From this perspective, Dean Wanta's position in Lanzhen Welfare Institute has at least opened up a pure land.
Ronan got off the car at the roadside outside the welfare home. At this time, Dean Wan, Paper Cut, and the boy Zhai Weiwu were waiting at the entrance. Next to them, Gong Zhai was sitting and watching the rain.
Compared with what he observed through the soul cloak before, Zhai Gong's situation has basically not changed. He is watching the rain, but he is not looking at the rain as if he is looking at the flowers. He just enters a state of selflessness.
Test your ideas again.
That's right, Zhai Gong was constantly sketching the condensation ring.
He should have vaguely noticed the subtle environmental changes caused by this freezing rain, and hoped to use the interference picture constructed by the soul cloak to seize the opportunity to complete the "water condensation ring" project.
After all, the water molecules are fully interfered with and are particularly active. It is different from the sea surface at the edge of the pool. This pulsating rhythm is a very beneficial guide.
In fact, the success rate of Zhai Gong's mental drawings is already very high. In the rain curtain, there are occasional flying water droplets passing through, showing the results of his efforts during this period. However, these works are different from what Ronan said: "Half Eternity"
"Solid structure", that is, a stable carrier that carries the wonders of spiritual and material interference, is always missing.
It is this thin line of difference that is most annoying.
Since it was Ronan who proposed the practice plan, he naturally had some ideas when faced with this situation, but Paper-cutting and Dean Wanta were both there, so he did not implement it rashly, but instead sought their opinions.
"The model you mentioned is theoretically reliable, but it's just a little bit off." Paper-cut also saw the clue. He is also a spiritually awakened person, and his common sense structure is much more solid than Ronan's. "Today is the environment.
Good, good condition, if this doesn’t work, it will be too hurt.”
Wan Ta said: "Although physical properties are not inconsistent, it is not the best focus."
"What?" Paper Cut didn't understand.
Ronan understood: "What Dean Wan means is that the water condensing ring itself is not very suitable for Zhai Gong's ability."
"Does this also mean mutual growth and mutual restraint?" Paper-cutting and Gao Tianshi have a good relationship, and they have been affected by it for a long time. This description has a very traditional flavor.
Wanta actually agreed: "Whether it is metal, wood, water, fire, earth, or electromagnetic, thermal energy and other forms of expression, it is just an introductory step leading to the ultimate physical nature. But everyone has different personalities and sensitivities, and the direction should also be different.
difference."
"Lao Zhai's ability is electronic affinity. Does it require a 'condensing ring'?" Paper Cut made a joke, "His Majesty the Emperor Wu may not have any in stock."
In fact, everyone knows that controlling water molecules or controlling electrons is actually beyond the reach of Zhai Gong at this level. In the final analysis, this ring and that ring are just handrails, and they are to have a relatively stable foundation in the material world.
Relying on it allows the ethereal soul power to act and multiply.
Listening to their discussion, Zhai Weiwu, who had been "listening to the Book of Heaven", suddenly sighed: "It's so troublesome mentally, I'd better recite sutras with the dean... Hey, Ruiwen, what is your ability?"
That's right, the purpose of this little brat's lament was to strike up a conversation with Rui Wen and find out the details - a new member of the orphanage had successfully entered the orphanage. He was a bit older than the rest of them, and he was still a "connected household".
", he couldn't help but be curious.
Unfortunately, Ruiwen remained silent and stood quietly on Ronan's side.
Ronan was not interested in children's tricks. During the communication process, he also observed Zhai Gong's work at close range and came to a preliminary conclusion-Zhai Gong's work was much more meticulous than him when it came to treating the water condensation ring.
.
The overall structure outlined by its soul power reflects the rigor and precision of the engineering drawing level. It can be seen that when it is outlined, it seems to delineate multiple fulcrums and boundaries of the condensation ring structure, and decompose it into block steps that can be spliced.
, meticulous.
Ronan realized something after looking at it for a long time, and had a deeper understanding of the subtle details of spiritual and material interference.
Undoubtedly, this method is the most labor-saving and optimal solution, but behind the precision is unsustainable embarrassment. Ronan may never experience this feeling.
Ronan admired Zhai's meticulous work, but the situation was different now, and it would be a waste...a waste of opportunity.
He thought for a moment, then silently stepped forward and bumped into Zhai Gong suddenly, directly interrupting Zhai Gong's state of oblivion.
Zhai Gong was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around to look, he saw Ronan sitting on the ground regardless of the humidity, taking out the paginated notebook that he rarely left behind, and then opened the imitation paper soft screen and drawing software.
The light shot up, spread out, and reached the boundary. Ronan chose the three-dimensional drawing mode that was rarely used, and without hesitation, he started writing directly in the work area.
The structure of the "condensate ring" is like a smooth donut, with an empty center, and the overall rules are not complicated. However, this three-dimensional curved surface structure is extremely difficult to draw by hand compared to the one-piece molding with thoughts. Smooth and smooth lines require some skills.
Considerable professional skills.
Both Ronan and Zhai Gong share this point. The latter can also see that although Ronan's composition and lines are beautiful, they are not particularly precise and more like freehand simple drawings.
It is undeniable that this method is extremely smooth. Soon, the projection area was filled with more than a dozen similar structures, and Ronan also turned on the animation effect to make these "donuts" flip back and forth.
Next, Ronan raised his fingers to Zhai Weiwu: "Come on, Weiwu, let me do a magic trick for you."
"ah?"
"Blow into these bagels, there will be a surprise!"
"Where are you coaxing the child?"
"If you don't come, I'll let your sister Ruiwen do it."
"Tch...ah, sister?" Zhai Weiwu was shocked. This was a situation he had never thought of. He instinctively looked at Ruiwen's chest immediately.
Ronan flicked a raindrop with his finger and hit Zhai Weiwu on the forehead: "Blow it or not."
"Blow, let me blow your skin!"
Having said that, Zhai Weiwu still stepped forward with great interest, puffed up his cheeks, and blew a deep breath into the painting work area.
At this moment, more than ten "donuts" in the work area seemed to be really blown by the airflow, floating out from the light of the finished work area, as if they were stained with special light powder, and turned into deformed luminous objects.
The bubbles disperse outward.
"Wow, this is handsome!" Zhai Weiwu praised, not knowing how difficult it would be to show a similar scene.
Ronan's move was inspired by the Justice Order, which used projectors to build sacred space structures; Wan Pagoda also used similar methods to test Xie Junping and Du Yong's mystical attainments.
.
Compared with the projector array, Ronan's method more reflects the interference effect of soul power turning virtual reality into reality, especially the method of attracting light with interference power, which is even more amazing.
Of course, any "magic" is just a gimmick, and the real value of this method will be revealed later - the luminous bubbles shrink rapidly at a visible rate, and a small number of them are structurally unstable and collapse midway, but more of them collapse.
It is still shrunk all the way to the point where it is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, just because the soft screen work area is "mounted" with low-light energy, emitting a needle-like ray of light.
Two seconds later, these rays of light turned into bright pearls. This is because these water-condensing ring structures successfully gather water molecules and refract light with water droplets.
The beautiful scenery did not last long, and the magic time passed quickly. The "pearl light" suspended in the air gradually extinguished, but Ronan's meaning had already been expressed. He smiled at Zhai Gong and said: "Believe me, the water condensing ring has a high fault tolerance rate.
After all, the spirit intervenes on the material level, and pure structure cannot represent everything. Also, it is very difficult to go from zero to one, so for this we not only need precision, but also a little inspiration and luck."
