The underground experimental base of the Special Affairs Bureau.
In a metal-style laboratory, Professor Qin stood in front of a huge closed machine wearing a full set of protective clothing, manipulating the mechanical levers with a serious expression.
Through the only glass window of the machine, you can clearly see the delicate and complicated operating table inside.
On the mechanical arm in the center of the operating table, a drop of squirming liquid is emitting bright golden light.
This is a drop of brain fluid taken from Zhang Changlin's brain.
"A kind of existence between matter and energy," Professor Qin sighed while looking at the constantly changing data in front of him: "If we can break through its mystery, we may be able to completely lift the veil of spiritual energy."
Matter and energy transform into each other, and even from a macro perspective, matter and energy are the same thing.
But from a microscopic perspective, matter can be seen as an aggregate of countless particles, and energy is the "bonding energy" that holds these particles together.
Substances break apart through excitation, and energy is released when the links between particles are broken. And energy will be expressed through the motion state of particles.
Because of the storage and release relationship between matter and energy, once matter is in an excited state, it will inevitably be consumed. Once energy is released from matter, it will inevitably enter a dissipation period.
Therefore, from the perspective of traditional physics, there is no coexistence of excited state matter and the energy balance it stimulates in this world.
Just like a perpetual motion machine is impossible.
However, this drop of brain fluid extracted from Zhang Changlin's brain broke this rule.
It is a drop of brain fluid and a brilliant mass of high-energy particles.
Under the observation of the instrument, the high-speed moving particles and the bright golden light proved that the group of particles was already in an energy excited state, but its mass did not change at all, and the particle movement speed and light wave intensity did not attenuate at all.
Substance in this state often means that it is difficult to respond to external stimuli unless it takes the initiative.
Chen Yun adjusted her glasses and said with some embarrassment: "With our current technology, I'm afraid we can't fully analyze it."
In fact, what she said was quite conservative. Judging from the properties of this drop of brain fluid, it can be said that direct detection is almost impossible with current science and technology.
More sophisticated detection will inevitably be accompanied by a reduction in "strength". Stimulation with insufficient "strength" will not cause its reaction.
Once the testing intensity is increased, there is a risk of losing sample materials.
"Maybe we shouldn't study it as a kind of energy," Professor Qin looked at the golden light in the sky and said thoughtfully: "Although it behaves more like a ball of high-energy particles, don't forget , it’s also a drop of brain fluid!”
"You mean, look at it biologically? Study it?"
"Yes, think of it as a bacteria or a virus..."
Before Professor Qin could finish speaking, the nursing staff in the infirmary pushed open the door and ran in: "Professor Qin, Zhang Changlin is crazy!"
"what happened?"
"I don't know. According to the dosage of the sedative injected before, he should sleep until at least tomorrow morning, but he suddenly woke up just now."
"After he woke up, he started banging on the door of the training chamber like crazy. We tried to communicate with him, but we found that we couldn't communicate at all."
While talking, several people had already arrived from the laboratory to the treatment room.
At this time, the treatment room had turned into a colosseum. Four security personnel held Zhang Changlin in the middle with explosion-proof forks from four directions.
The hatch of the culture chamber not far away was violently opened and twisted to the point of deformation, and the slippery culture fluid was spread all over the floor.
Zhang Changlin was held back by four people holding explosion-proof forks, and he was still struggling like a red-eyed beast.
It's just that his pupils are now golden instead of blood-colored.
But the same thing is that they are not popular at all.
He just squeezed desperately towards the door. Even though the steel ring of the explosion-proof fork was cut into his flesh, he still pushed the two people blocking the door to keep retreating.
At the moment when Professor Qin and others entered the door, they happened to see the security guard in front being pushed to the ground. Zhang Changlin took advantage of the situation and broke free from the restraints, and then rushed towards the front door in a daze.
Chen Yun subconsciously pulled out the electromagnetic gun she carried with her and raised the gun to shoot.
"Do not impulse!"
At the critical moment, Professor Qin stopped Chen Yun: "He is not here for us."
As he spoke, Professor Qin took out his special psychic detection glasses and put them on.
Zhang Changlin, who rushed toward him, instantly changed his appearance in Professor Qin's eyes.
In his eyes, a huge figure composed entirely of golden light was attached behind Zhang Changlin, and Zhang Changlin became a puppet on strings.
Continuing to look up, he saw countless colorful rays of light connecting the golden figure.
These streams of light seeped in from the outside world, and during this period there was some gray and dirty light, which was connected to the golden figure.
As for the golden figure behind Zhang Changlin, there are some extremely inconspicuous black spots on the surface of the gilded body.
The number of these dirty lights and dark spots is very small, but it is slowly increasing.
Professor Qin looked at the direction of these lights and decisively chose to give way to the door before Zhang Changlin bumped into him.
Chen Yun watched Zhang Changlin leave the recuperation room, and immediately picked up the communicator and called: "C9-1 laboratory security team, do your best to prevent the target from escaping the laboratory."
"Let him go!"
"But the doctor told him not to let him leave the laboratory..."
"If you don't let him leave, this place will become a realm!"
Chen Yun's eyes widened: "You mean...he is going to fall?"
Professor Qin did not answer Chen Yun's question, but ordered: "Check Zhang Changlin's interpersonal relationships and focus on the major events that have occurred recently!"
"yes!"
Chen Yun mobilized the database of the Special Affairs Bureau and quickly searched Zhang Changlin.
In the end, it was locked on the live broadcast of the Times Square parade.
Now that the live broadcast is over, you can still watch the replay.
"Professor, I only found this. Judging from the video, there seems to be no problem, and Zhang Changlin was also absent from the parade."
Professor Qin said solemnly: "Maybe the problem is because of this absence——"
"In this way, you arrange a few people to follow him without showing up and see where he goes next."
"yes!"
…
Zhang Changlin felt like he had had a long, long dream.
The dream was very complicated.
He met two new friends in his dream. The two new friends took him to the hospital. The doctor said that another person lived in his head and wanted to perform a craniotomy on him.
In the dream, he also heard countless people shouting his name.
He felt as if he had forgotten something very important and fell into a maze full of haze.
Follow the calls and wander around the maze.
I don’t know how long I walked, but the fog finally cleared.
Zhang Changlin opened his eyes and found that he had arrived in Times Square at some point.
However, the scene in the square made him feel cold all over.
The pungent smell of blood and the endless red blood that greeted his eyes.
Corpses, densely packed corpses.
Skulls, intestines, severed arms, all were broken limbs. The remains of thousands of people were piled all over the square.
Zhang Changlin slapped himself hard and murmured with dull eyes:
"You should still be... still dreaming, right?"
