In the unknown hall, Eric met the members of the behind-the-scenes organization one after another.
"Sorry, our organization does not have a name. A name is meaningless for what we are pursuing. All we want is results. In fact, the vast majority of our members agree that in this All entertainment activities in the world, such as music, art, food, etc., have no meaning at all. Because these things cannot play any role in the progress of mankind.
The evolution of individual life and groups requires mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and other natural sciences. We humans have invested too much of our lives into meaningless things. So far, we are still hunkered down on this barren planet.
So, we want to make a change. First, start with the individual. Let us break through the existing life patterns. Enter a more advanced life form. Then we will set out to change the world. Promote the progress of the entire human civilization. "These words were spoken by several congressmen in succession, but they didn't sound inconsistent. Because their tone was the same calm and extremely calm, without the slightest emotion.
"I heard your theory once from the boss. It makes sense to a certain extent, but breakthroughs in life forms are not that easy to achieve."
"You have already done it, haven't you? We have examined your body. Although you used some kind of biotechnology to hide the true data of your body. But our biotechnology has also achieved something. We know your physical fitness and have Far beyond human limits. We need this technology."
"This is just a physical enhancement. It is not a breakthrough in life level at all."
"No, this has already taken the most critical step. In this field, the most difficult step is the first step. As long as we can break through the first limit, we can see the road ahead. This is what we lack. .”
"Then what can you give? If you want to make a deal, you need to come up with enough chips."
“Chips are certainly what we’re good at.”
The leading white man took out a transparent vial. There is a crystal clear pill inside.
"NZT99, the final version of this series. We combined it with enzymes that counteract its side effects. The result is this perfect ingredient. You can think of it as a neuroenhancer. And it will Integrate into your blood and create a permanent effect. It can"
"It allows people to perfectly mobilize all their knowledge reserves and control every muscle in the body within a certain period of time. Highly active nerves can also bring powerful observation, understanding, learning abilities, and Thinking ability. This is a temporary strengthening agent that acts on the brain.
A long time ago, there were some on the market. But at that time, it was nzt48. Because it has huge side effects, it has led to the death of a large number of users. It has since been classified as a dangerous drug. After many severe blows, he soon disappeared. Now it seems that this is your handiwork. "Eric continued by continuing what the other party said.
"Drugs, for those mortals. They can only understand this opportunity in this way. Even if it has drug-like side effects, so what. Just because of its efficacy, do you know how many people are flocking to it? Those expectations Scientific researchers who have a flash of inspiration. Those so-called artists who have run out of inspiration. Those who are lingering at the bottom of society and want to change the status quo, but are powerless.
For these people. What side effects do you think they care about. A few years ago, one of our experimental targets helped the FBI solve more than 40 large-scale cold cases with the help of nzt48. Another experimental goal is to almost ascend to the position of president. If not for our intervention, he would have succeeded. They all suffer from its side effects. Biological enzymes need to be used regularly for relief. But you think a few people would give up on this kind of opportunity. "
"Even if there is no such relieving biological enzyme, there will be countless people pursuing this thing. The world is too cruel. If you want to take a step forward, you often need ten steps. If there is a shortcut, no one will care about the shortcut. Abysses on both sides."

In the villa, Shen Yi once again increased the injection of Lucy. At the same time, she was also given a large amount of high-concentration glucose to supplement the energy deficiency in her body.
"This is not enough. I need more energy."
"Don't be nervous. Your current strong hunger is largely due to an overreaction in your body. I'm strictly monitoring your physical condition. Your body actually doesn't need that much energy. At the moment The degree of evolution is still within the tolerance of your body."
Shen Yi stopped injecting Lucy with cph4. As he said, I can still bear it now, but if I continue to take injections, I am not sure. In the original work, Lucy's body absorbed too much cph4 at once. Without any buffer space. Her body responded to the stress and provided all its limited resources to the evolution of her brain. So much so that she lost almost all her emotions in an instant, retaining only a faint trace of humanity.
Shen Yi didn't want a Lucy like that to appear. That kind of absolute sanity is simply too dangerous. What he needs is a Lucy in control.
"Now, how do you feel?"
"It's better than ever before. My brain has an unusual sense of clarity. I can now perceive almost all the information in this room. Behind the refrigerator behind me, there is a cockroach. On the ceiling in the upper right corner, there is a fly. Just outside the window Three birds flew past. Among them was a gray magpie. In these five seconds, three cars passed by outside the villa, a Chevrolet, a Lexus, and a Porsche.
Also, I can now recall all the memories in my life. Oh my god, it's unbelievable. I can even remember what it felt like to be pregnant in my mother's body. It was such a...warm feeling. "
Based on Lucy's description, Shen Yi was basically sure. The so-called cph4 is the ultimate advanced version of nzt. It's just that their experimental method made Shen Yi feel strange. They did not conduct closed trials in the laboratory. Instead, an experiment was formed through a series of coincidences. There was obviously something about it that he didn't know.

In the hall, Eric was watching in surprise as a member of the 'committee' stood up. He stood with some difficulty. Because there are all kinds of instruments hanging on his back.
"It's really embarrassing, isn't it? The stronger we develop the brain, the weaker we develop the human body. As mentioned before, our body simply cannot withstand the high-speed operation of the brain. And in order to maintain life, we Only this method can be used.
And the saddest thing is that we can't even create a universal nutrient solution. You can only use different channels to continuously deliver to yourself various different substances that the human body needs. "
When he stood up completely, Eric saw a dozen densely packed tubes behind him. Not only are their bodies out of balance, they have also lost considerable ability to take care of themselves.
"Money, power, fame, and all the temptations in this world have no meaning to us. All we want is to take that step. To transcend and become a brand new human being. We have paid a huge price for this. .So nothing can make us give up.”
"You must have conducted many experiments, right? Is cph4 your next experimental target? I am very curious, how do you plan to use it. Use in vivo experiments and inject directly into the human body?"
"In fact, we used more complex experimental methods. But unfortunately, that experiment was broken by you."
"That girl is the target of your experiment? What are you going to do? Create an accident and let her eat cph4 by mistake? For an experiment that breaks through the level of life, isn't it a bit random?"
"No, on the contrary. We only did a little bit of guidance to let the girl named Lucy get close to cph4. The rest is to let the incident develop naturally."
Behind this statement, there is a lot revealed. They don't use traditional scientific experiments. Instead, test it in this weird way. Obviously there is some huge secret hidden in all this. But Eric is just a spy. His knowledge reserve is far from the level of Shen Yi's scientific research team. He just felt that he had touched something dangerous. But don't know what it is.
"...What on earth are you doing?"
"This is a difficult question to explain. In the history of mankind, there are many great scientists who will always enter a field of philosophy or religion in their later years. Because when you reach a certain level in a certain scientific field, When you reach a certain height, you will faintly feel something.
It is a resistance, a force that prevents us from moving forward. Something in the dark is preventing us from making further breakthroughs. It's a feeling that's hard to describe in words. Because throughout human history, there are very few people who can reach that kind of Chengdu. So this claim has never been proven. But things are different now.
Everyone in this council, and a huge number of people scattered around the world. Everyone in our organization is a genius with an IQ of over 200. We select talents in various fields and then give them brain enhancement. It is hoped that this will promote the comprehensive development of the human world. And in this case, we verified the theory.
That is breakthroughs in certain fields. The more serious the human interference is, the harder it will be to achieve a breakthrough. Human life science is like this. We have assembled countless of the smartest brains in the world. But he has never been able to come up with a reasonable technology to strengthen the body. Eventually one of our members came up with the whole theory. So we started using another method.
We only provide some minor guidance during the experiment. Then let probability do the rest. This is an idea that can even be considered crazy. It consumes more than fifty times more resources than the laboratory process. But a surprising phenomenon occurred. We use this method to conduct various experiments. Actually achieved more rapid progress than in the laboratory?
Incredible, right? Most of us don't agree with this approach. But now, it's part of our standard process. We have begun to make great breakthroughs in the comprehensively enhanced experimental process. If we can supplement the technology in your hands, I believe we will be able to perfect and unify all the data soon. At that time, we will break away from this decadent life form and take the next step in evolution. Humanity will usher in a new era. "
Eric does not understand all of the above information. But he knew he was exposed to something incredible. He is an enhanced warrior, and all his senses are very sharp. He could vaguely feel that he was in the middle of some huge and complicated event. He didn't know how much of what the other person said was true. It is also impossible to make independent judgments.
"I'm very sorry. I can't make an independent judgment on the information you told me. I need to give feedback to the senior management."
"We understand what you mean. This is also what we mean. The reason why we came to you is to let you bring back this information."
“If that’s the case, why not just use a more concise contact method?”
"I think that's because both of us were on alert before this. Your information network is very high-end, and we don't want to act rashly and cause misunderstandings."
"I understand, I need to report immediately."
………………
On the other side, Shen Yi is teaching Lucy.
"I still don't understand why I need to learn this. Who are you? I just analyzed hundreds of possibilities. But none of them match you."
"At your current level, you are still unable to understand my existence. What you need now is knowledge that can match your wisdom. You are now in a very complicated and dangerous event. Lucy, I won't Protect you every time. So, you need to know how to protect yourself."
"Okay, let's move on. What should I learn next?"
"For you, you can learn all the techniques that may be used. Your current learning speed is far beyond that of ordinary people. Fighting, driving, firearms, hacking, disguise, even poison, electronic machinery, psychology, society Engineering and all that.”
"Wait a minute, I can drive."
"Can you fly a helicopter?"
“…”
Richard ruthlessly made coffee for the two of them. This guy is not stupid, he wants to show his presence so as not to be abandoned. He decisively adapted to the role of a temporary butler.
At this time, news came from Shen Yi's private communication system.
"Boss, Eric is back. He brought important information and needs to see you immediately."
