"May I?"
Ana Shen looked calm and calm on the surface, with an apologetic smile on her face.
Deep inside, he was constantly comforted, suppressing the clown's restlessness.
'If others don't agree, will they kill people and steal their goods? This is inconsistent with the principles of justice that you have always followed. '
'Hehe, you also said that that is my code of justice. '
'I always thought that what you call justice should be in line with the public. '
'public? '
The clown sneered in Shen Yan's heart: "Human beings will become blind and stupid once they merge from individuals into the masses." '
'What the group pursues and believes in is never truth and rationality, but cruelty, paranoia and fanaticism. Only simplicity and extremes exist. '
'Justice never belongs to the public, only to individuals! '
The clown kept chattering his fallacies in his mind, but in reality, Academician Xiao had already followed Ana Shen's line of sight to the bottom of the display rack.
Academician Xiao's eyesight was not very good. It was not until he walked to the display stand and raised his head that he could clearly see the black metal helmet that Ana Shen was pointing to.
Academician Xiao reached out and took the helmet off the display rack: "Most of what is displayed here is some of the equipment that everyone made by themselves when our Logistics Equipment Department was first established."
As he spoke, Academician Xiao pointed to the silver armor covered in the glass display window and said, "Same as that armor, it doesn't work at all due to various reasons."
"Or are you thinking about it?"
Academician Xiao was afraid that Shen Yan wouldn't understand this helmet, so he told a past incident——
This helmet, called the Paranoid Skull, was made by a colleague who specializes in neural signal conversion. The later brainwave transcriber was developed by a team led by this colleague.
But this delusional head has a more magical ability than a brainwave transcriber - imagination materialization!
That is to say, wearing this helmet can realize what you imagine in your brain.
Any type!
But there is a prerequisite, that is, the user's imagination must be specific enough.
For example, if you imagine a drop of water, and you know the atomic structure of water (H2O), the hydrogen bonds between molecules, and the existence mode of water molecules with each other, then you can probably visualize this drop of water.
It seems that this prerequisite is very harsh, but for real scientists, it is like an artifact.
When this helmet was first produced, it shook the worldview of almost everyone present.
But later, everyone discovered another fatal BUG, that is, the things that appeared did not really exist.
It is more like a projection that deceives all your senses. You can perceive it in all aspects of sight, touch, and smell, but it itself is actually a phantom that deceives all your perceptions.
Some people may say, since it deceives all perceptions, how do others detect that it is false?
In fact, the truth was discovered due to an accident.
The researcher who created the Paranoid Skull gave it to his student and asked him to assist him in conducting all-round testing of this special equipment.
The student is a PhD specializing in genetics and also has a minor in food nutrition. In the days after acquiring the piece of equipment, he used it as his own cafeteria.
That's right, he relied on his knowledge of biology and food nutrition to materialize a variety of foods and lived a 'luxury' life for nearly a week.
However, when his tutor went to him to get the test results, he found that his student had completely lost weight.
However, this student was completely unaware of his condition, and was still eating all kinds of delicacies that he had imagined, and even invited his tutor to try them together.
At that time, the colleague looked at the table full of food and tasted a piece of steak without belief.
The plump and juicy taste and the feeling of fullness in your stomach are real from any point of view.
But the student's current condition is as if he has been hungry for many days and is about to starve to death.
If he hadn't received a solid enough materialistic education over the years, he would have almost thought that the things he created were witchcrafted.
Later, the colleague took the helmet back, organized several volunteers, and after several rounds of experiments, finally determined a fact.
What is manifested through this helmet actually does not exist at all.
It deceives the perception of the user and those around them through an unknown method. The entire fraud radius is about twenty meters away.
"According to the theory of conservation of mass and energy, we should have thought from the beginning that there is no possibility of creating something out of thin air."
Academician Xiao smiled bitterly: "But what it presented at the time was too real. We were all shocked by its magical functions for a while, and we actually forgot the most basic common sense issues."
Listening to Academician Xiao's words, Ana Shen instinctively felt that something was wrong.
The whole story seems reasonable, but there is a flaw that cannot be ignored.
Everyone was shocked by its ability. Doesn't the creator of the Delusion's Skull know its specific function?
"Academician Xiao, I have a question here. Since this Delusion Helmet was developed by one of your colleagues, doesn't he himself know the function and principle of this helmet?"
Academician Xiao shook his head, his eyes under the maroon frames showing a look of reminiscence: "I don't know...Old Zhou himself said he didn't understand the specific working principle of this helmet."
'You ordinary people won't understand it even if you study it for eight hundred years! '
The clown suddenly spoke in Shen Yan's heart again: "He actually made the crystal of eternity into a toy to satisfy his own desires... It should be said that he is worthy of being a human being!"
Ana Shen calmly asked in her heart: 'What is the Eternal Crystal? '
'what……'
Then Ana Shen heard the clown's voice become extremely cold: 'That was originally my thing, but it was stolen by shameless thieves while I was sleeping. Sooner or later, I will make them pay...'
The sound was like the bottom of a deep lake. The surface of the lake was covered with thick ice, and beneath the ice was a suppressed and raging undercurrent.
The Crystal of Eternity was originally the Joker's thing?
It was later stolen...and made into a helmet?
But these researchers probably didn't steal it, otherwise the clown would have taken action long ago.
Originally, Ana Shen wanted to ask the clown what the real function of the Eternal Crystal was, but Academician Xiao had already spoken again: "The research value of the Delusionist's Skull is much higher than its use value. I don't recommend that you choose it."
Ana Shen shook his head: "If possible, I would like to have him."
"Items that can affect all perceptions may have unexpected effects during combat."
When Academician Xiao saw Ana Shen's persistence, he said nothing more.
After all, putting this helmet here is indeed of no use. The so-called research value is only theoretical value. In fact, they have used all means for such a long time and have researched nothing.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be left to gather dust in the warehouse.
"Since you insist, it's yours."
While saying this, Academician Xiao threw the metal helmet in Ana Shen's hand.
