"He's still alive, but I don't know why, but I don't feel much life from him."
Fengyue followed Li Zheng's instructions and cautiously walked to the ape-man to check. He had been exposed to scientific research projects for a long time and was also involved in medical treatment.
He walked back to Li Zheng and said: "That guy is like a living dead now. His body is alive, but his consciousness is dead."
"It's not a vegetative state, it's a living dead." He seemed to be afraid that Li Zheng and the others wouldn't understand, so he added another explanation.
After listening to this symptom, Miriel finally understood the meaning of what Li Zheng said just now: "Yakumo's sister does have this symptom, so your previous speculation was correct. Someone did use powerful mental power to destroy those things."
Human spiritual world!”
But……
why?
What is the purpose of destroying the spiritual world of those people?
Li Zheng pondered for a long time, his face was as pale as gold paper, he gasped and said: "Help me go over and have a look."
He didn't even have the strength to stand up now. The treatment medicine he had swallowed before began to take effect, and the large and small wounds on his body began to slowly heal.
Countless densely packed granulations squirmed in the wound, colluding with each other and growing together, filling the cracks on the body.
Strangely, Li Zheng found that his blood seemed to be different from before. It was much thicker than before. Even though there were dozens of deep wounds on his body, only sporadic blood flowed out.
, and it is also absorbed back into the body by the granulations that appear during the wound healing process.
Miriel supported Li Zheng and walked step by step to the ape-man's body.
The ape-man's appearance has not changed at all, except that the flames that surrounded his body not long ago have all dissipated.
The fur of the fire apes seems to be naturally resistant to high temperatures. After being surrounded by flames for so long, there is not even a single curly hair.
The ape-man's eyes were slightly closed, as if he was just closing his eyes to relax, with a peaceful expression.
But his eyeballs had lost their nervous jitter, and he was indifferent to the presence of a few more people around him.
Li Zheng checked his breathing and heartbeat. All physiological functions were normal, and his heartbeat was as strong as a drum. He could feel a small hammer hitting the palm of his hand through the skin, hair and muscles of his palm.
He tried to use the black dragon spear to leave a wound on the ape-man's body, but he pierced the ape-man's palm. The other person didn't even frown, but twitched slightly due to the triggering of the nerves in his body.
"I just discovered five things similar to spiritual power nodes in his spiritual world." Li Zheng told Miriel and Fengyue what he had discovered: "But I can be sure that those are related to the nodes.
A completely different approach.”
"We are going to stay here for a few days. When my body recovers, I will go into his spiritual world to check and find out what that thing is."
He turned his head and glanced at Mudala. Whether Mudala could enter the outer city was no longer his concern.
The top priority is to figure out what the five node-like things in the ape-man's brain are and how they are formed.
"I have a hunch that that thing may be the main cause of those patients suffering from apathy!" Li Zheng expressed worry: "If my conjecture comes true... the situation may be less optimistic than we imagined!"
Although Li Zheng only noticed the five node-like things for a moment, he still felt the source of spiritual power from them that was completely different from the ape-man.
"Since I want to live here for a while, I will go and inform Mudala." Miriel said: "After all, this is the territory of the Destruction Clan, and you must obtain their consent."
"Yeah." Li Zheng nodded and let her go.
He himself sat down on the spot. He really was in no mood to continue communicating with Mudala. The method of causing apathy suddenly appeared in front of him. Compared with it, the agreement between his predecessors and the Destruction Clan seemed inconsequential.
"I seem to have heard of patients with this kind of symptoms before..." Fengyue has been thinking deeply: "There is a research institute in Sanqiwu that seems to be studying such patients, but I have only heard about it before and have not paid any attention to it.
.”
It is not surprising that anything happens in the outer city. He will naturally not take the initiative to pay attention to and understand things that are not related to the topics that Fengyue is interested in.
Li Zheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "There are many such patients in the outer city. Just one friend I know has taken in hundreds of people."
The doctor once said that he was not the only one in the 950 block to receive these patients.
It’s hard to imagine how many cases of aphantasia there are in the entire outer city.
"Master Guide." Fengyue said: "If this method comes from an organization in the wilderness, we'd better find a way to deal with it quickly, otherwise once they continue to develop, everyone in the outer city will be in danger.
"
Fengyue had already understood the basic principle from Li Zheng's narration just now. It was nothing more than someone using absolutely crushing mental power to forcibly invade other people's spiritual worlds and obliterate the spiritual bodies inhabiting them.
However, just knowing the techniques is of no use, the main thing is how to resist the invasion of others.
In other words, how to strengthen the defense of the spiritual world.
The spiritual world itself has a strong defense, but that level of defense is useless in the face of a particularly powerful target.
Just like Li Zheng, if he wanted to force his way into other people's spiritual world, regardless of the safety of both the enemy and ourselves, no one in the entire outer city and wilderness could stop him!
Therefore, the most important thing is how to use the only mental power to make a highly targeted attack that can resist the invasion of mental power stronger than one's own.
Li Zheng thought for a moment and found no solution, so he had to say: "I will study this matter carefully after I recover from my injury."
His body had just experienced the risk of collapse, and now he dared not use his mental power wantonly, otherwise the outcome would be unpredictable.
"If you, Master Guide, are of any use, just ask." Fengyue bowed and said, "Although I am not very proficient in mental power, I am very good at being an experimental subject."
He has been a guinea pig for decades, and he doesn't mind changing the subject and being a guinea pig again. As long as it can bring impetus to the outer city, he will be happy even if he dies during the experiment.
Li Zheng raised his eyes and looked at him for a while. A person with a spirit of dedication like Fengyue might have a lot in common with the Black Dragon Ancestor and the others.
At this time, Miriel came back and said to Li Zheng: "Mudala has agreed to let us stay here for a while, but she has another request."
Li Zheng frowned: "What request?"
"She said..." Miriel turned around and glanced. Mudala was cleaning up the flowers and plants near the wooden house, preparing to make space to build two more wooden houses for Li Zheng and the others to move in.
"She said she wanted to learn how to break through the limits of her mental power, and I promised her for you."
"Of course, I also put forward another condition..."
