Umbrella, in a secret room. Shen Yi and Banner were sitting cross-legged. Shen Yi handed a glass of water to Banner and motioned for him to drink it.
"This shouldn't be ordinary water, right?" Banner said doubtfully.
"Yes, there are powerful hallucinogenic drugs in it."
"Does this have anything to do with what we're going to do next?" Banner had a look on his face.
"Of course it is related. Normal people cannot enter their own consciousness space. No matter how you meditate, your thinking will be limited by the physical body. That's why you need assistance. This is the drug used by Indian wizards when channeling. Plus The special formulation of Norman Technology Biological Laboratory amplifies its effect. Just one drop will make you completely unable to feel where your body is."
"...I feel like this is not a good choice. To tell you the truth? Except for marijuana when I was in school, I have never had any drug experience. And from what you said, this thing is very powerful?"
"It's not very strong. It's probably the most powerful hallucinogenic drug in the world. About two hundred times more powerful than marijuana."
"...Can I refuse?"
"If you're not going to fix what's wrong with you, don't drink it."
"Is there no other way?"
"Of course there are methods. Now you can start learning ancient Indian meditation techniques. Chinese Taoist visualization techniques are also acceptable. In about ten years, you will be able to enter your own spiritual world."
"Okay. I can drink it. But then what? I go into my own spirit world and kill the Hulk?"
"Haha, pardon me. With your fighting skills, even in the spiritual world, you can't kill him in a short time. Don't worry, I will teach you how to do it."
"How do you teach me? I won't be able to sense any information at all." Banner looked at Shen Yi suspiciously, as if he was looking at a liar.
"We are now using a completely different system to deal with your body's problems. So, can you gather the scientific spirit in your body first and cooperate with me attentively?"
"All right."
Banner shook his head helplessly and drank the potion.
The most powerful hallucinogen certainly lives up to its reputation. After less than ten seconds, Banner felt his eyes blurred and his whole body drifting. When consciousness returned again, I found myself in a blank world. Absolute blankness, except for the ground shrouded in colored smoke. As far as the eye can see, there is nothing else. A huge, empty feeling of disorientation came over me. He wandered around and saw nothing.
"This is the spiritual world? What should I do next?" Banner shouted to the sky. Although he didn't think Shen Yi could hear it.
"You don't need to be so loud, I can hear it. This is a blank area outside the spiritual world. To put it more fantasy-wise, this is the sea of mist in the spiritual world. If you control your spiritual consciousness in the right way, you can enter your own spiritual area. , then you will be trapped here forever. Until your physical body dies."
Shen Yi's voice appeared behind Banner. Banner shuddered and turned around to see Shen Yi standing behind him.
"What's going on? Why are you here? Did you drink that drug too?"
"I do not need."
"Is that the Eastern meditation method that you have practiced for more than ten years?"
"...My mental power is hundreds of times higher than that of a person who has practiced Eastern meditation for ten years. I can enter the sea of consciousness without any external force. Now shut up and listen to me."
Banner could only forcefully suppress his curiosity and listen to Shen Yi explain everything next to him.
"Listen, you should concentrate now and try to shrink your consciousness. Imagine a scenario where you force yourself to be dragged deep into a certain place."
"...I kind of understand what you mean. But how do I do it?"
"This is the spiritual world. You are a conscious body, and everything is done in your thoughts. You are a scientist, can you use your imagination?"
Shen Yi looked at Banner helplessly, with a constipated look on his face, trying to shrink his consciousness. I just feel the pain in my balls. This genius with an IQ of over 200 is actually so bad at this kind of operation. No wonder the barbarians like Hulk would even get the upper hand in the later stages.
Shen Yi's mental strength is considered top-notch in this world without mutants. Although his development has always been biased towards the physical level. But for interference on the spiritual level, he is better than Banner. As a last resort, he could only push Banner gently.
Banner only felt that his eyes had changed, and he had arrived in a familiar environment.
"This is..." Banner looked around and saw that this was a familiar cabin. There was a photo of himself and Betty on the desk.
"This is where Betty and I used to live."
"The manifestation of the spiritual world is usually the place that impresses you the most. This is the first feedback from your subconscious mind. Start now."
"Start with what?"
"The first step is to find Hulk."
"Well, I understand. It should be in a corner of my spiritual world, right."
"Finally we are on the right track. The current Hulk is just a newborn consciousness. It will subconsciously stay in the place it is most familiar with. If you think about it carefully, the place it is familiar with should also be the place you are familiar with."
"Yes, that must be the place where it was born. My laboratory. The birthplace of life, they always have an extremely strong attraction to him. It must be in my laboratory. But how can I enter my laboratory? Where’s the laboratory?”
"...I'll say it one last time, this is your spiritual world. You are a god-like existence here. You don't need to think about anything. Because you are everything."
"I am everything." Banner seemed to understand something as he murmured. He turned around and pushed open the bedroom door, but the scene in front of him was no longer a bedroom. It's a dilapidated physics laboratory.
"This is where I was exposed to gamma rays. It was also where I first transformed into the Hulk. At that time, I was very scared, afraid of everything in the world. I wanted to leave here like crazy, but I finally found out that But it is the place where I feel most at ease." Banner used Hulk's perspective to tell the above content.
Turn around the ruins of the laboratory, in the corner. A huge green figure was curled up in the corner and sleeping soundly. That's Hulk. The Hulk at this time did not have the violence shown in reality at all. Instead, he was like a baby, drooling and sleeping soundly.
It has actually only been more than three years since Hulk was born. The total time it has been exposed to the outside world is only a few hours. So the current Hulk is actually just a baby. Despite his size, he wields power that threatens the world. But its consciousness is still just a baby.
"Okay, Banner. Now comes the most difficult level. You have to defeat yourself."
"Beat myself?"
"Yes, Hulk is in front of you now. And you are now a god. Although it theoretically has the same authority as you. But a baby cannot be compared to a genius with seven doctorates. .So the most difficult hurdle now is yourself.
Because according to traditional methods, you should start to relent now. It is just a baby, ignorant and ignorant. It didn't do anything wrong. How could I bear to kill it? You have started to have this idea now. "
"I..." Banner subconsciously wanted to retort. But when the words came to his mouth, he became tangled again. It is undeniable that he has indeed begun to have this idea. Shen Yi had an extremely good grasp of his heart.
"It's time to make a choice, Banner."
