Light appeared in Chu Jungui's field of vision again, and what he saw was the ceiling exuding soft light.
The body's sensations returned one by one, and with a beep, the chip also restarted.
"Am I back?" Chu Jungui thought, moving his eyes and looking at the surrounding environment.
"He's awake! Notify the director quickly!" The nurse's voice came from outside the field of vision.
A few minutes later, Chu Jungui felt weak currents coming from several places in his body, stimulating his body and collecting reactions. A composite scanning beam was scanning his body from head to toe, and two streams of fluids full of medicine and nutrients were being injected into his body.
Chu Jungui felt a little tingling in his body. They were tiny wounds that had not yet completely healed, with a diameter of about 0.2 millimeters. The number of wounds is staggering, with more than 1,400 wounds on the head alone, and more than 3,000 wounds on the body.
Corresponding to the tiny surface wounds, Chu Jungui sensed thousands of tiny gaps appearing inside the body, ranging from 0.1 to 1 mm in diameter. The original flesh and blood in these gaps have been taken out and are now filled with bodily fluids.
"Is this the repair surgery after death in real dreams?" Chu Jungui thought, and continued to scan the body, and then found that there were countless tiny necrotic particles inside the body. The cells inside had lost all activity and could not even be used as nutrients. The substances are absorbed and turned into various biological toxins. Chu Jungui's initial test found more than 700 different toxins.
"I see..." Chu Jungui understood the punishment mechanism of death. After death in a real dream, countless tiny dead bodies will appear throughout the body. If these dead bodies are not removed in time, complex toxins will be produced and cause secondary damage to the body. Without any external intervention, ordinary people will eventually have thousands of tiny holes in their brains, which will either become fibrotic or inorganic, and the damage to intelligence will come from this. The damage to body muscles and fat is relatively minor, but the damage to organs is also irreversible, eventually leading to multiple organ failure. Under normal circumstances, the body's self-healing power can preserve life, but the health level will permanently decline, and individual organs can only maintain the minimum functional requirements. Another death could lead to true organ failure.
This is also the reason why the accident rate of experimenters remained high during the initial exploration of real dreams. As long as you enter and die in a real dream a second time, you may become disabled. Death in real dreams three times will definitely lead to serious consequences such as disability, intelligence deterioration below the normal level, mental illness, necrosis of most individual organs, etc., and the mortality rate will also increase to more than 20%.
As the three major forces increased their investment in medical care and made great progress in minimally invasive surgery and removal of subsequent toxins, the damage was significantly reduced. But even now, cleaning up thousands of tiny injuries is far beyond the limits of human medicine. At the same time, of the more than 700 types of toxins that appeared on Chu Jungui's body, humans can only effectively deal with more than 100 types.
Chu Jungui was thinking as he completed his physical self-examination. The hatch of the medical cabin opened automatically, the bed board rose, and the nutrient solution level dropped. Chu Jungui's face emerged from the liquid surface, and he sat up with mechanical assistance.
Dr. Zero walked in, looked at the data on the screen, and said, "The vital signs are normal and he is recovering well. Okay, you guys go out first."
After many doctors and staff left, Dr. Zero took a sip from the teacup in his hand, and quickly operated on the console of the medical cabin with his other hand. In the blink of an eye, a large amount of high-energy nutrients were injected into Chu Jungui's body.
Chu Jungui was in need of nutrition now, so he tried his best to absorb and transform it, using it to grow new body tissue and fill the gaps left by necrotic tissue.
Dr. Zero's face looked a little tired, as if he hadn't slept in several days. Chu Jungui glanced at him and said, "The information you gave me is full of errors and omissions. Did someone want me dead, so they tampered with it?"
Dr. Zero shook his head, "That would be too troublesome and too indirect. Since I have the authority to modify the information in my hand, I might as well just give you some venom and poison you to death."
"Then what's going on? The physical properties of a piece of slate are so different. They are two extremes."
"You are not very lucky. You encountered changes in the dream world as soon as you entered, and the changes were a full two years ahead of schedule. Not only you, but more than 50 of us died in it. You should have encountered the people who were originally only in the world. The beasts that appeared in the secondary area caused death. In order to save you, I picked up the scalpel that had been put down for decades. It is not pleasant to control more than 200 molecular knives at the same time." Dr. Zero's voice was filled with emotion. Exuding exhaustion.
Chu Jungui checked his body again and said: "This repair is very effective. My current damage is only 1.47%. If this is the case, why is the death penalty of those exploration team members 10%?"
Dr. Zero smiled and said: "Do you think anyone can enjoy more than 200 molecular knives at the same time like you? There are not many doctors who can operate molecular knives even here, there are only more than 30 in total. Even if they go into battle at the same time, each of them can A maximum of four to five molecular knives can be controlled at the same time, and in order to avoid mutual interference, a maximum of 10 people can perform surgeries at the same time. This is one of them."
10 doctors, that is to say, up to 50 molecular knives are operating at the same time, and no more than 50 necrotic tissues can be removed at the same time. The brain area obviously cannot accommodate ten doctors. Through his own body records, Chu Jungui knew that after the necrotic tissue is produced, it must be removed within a few hours, otherwise it will start to produce toxins.
Dr. Zero continued: "Everything has a cost. A molecular knife is worth more than 3 million and can be used up to 5 times. Just on you, 600 molecular knives have been used up."
At this point, Chu Jungui understood the implication of Dr. Zero's words. It was impossible for the dynasty to spend so much money on ordinary testers, let alone let Dr. Zero do the surgery himself.
The cost of equipment alone for an operation is 200 million, which is the basis for Chu Jungui's injury being only 1.47%. Dynasty treats most of its exploration team members as consumables, and they will be removed from the exploration list after up to two deaths. Their physical injuries will be faithfully recorded in real dreams, and their strength will be greatly reduced if they re-enter.
Dr. Zero called up Chu Jungui's physical data, checked it over and frowned: "1.47% is still a bit high. Is there no other way for you?"
"Of course." Chu Jungui closed his eyes, his body temperature rose rapidly, and he began to use all his strength to generate new tissues inside the body, and at the same time expel the accumulated toxins from the body. After a while, countless thin light black oil droplets appeared on the surface of Chu Jungui's body.
Dr. Zero raised his eyebrows: "So many unseen substances? Okay, very good. It seems that it is the right time for you to participate in this experiment!"
Dr. Zero stretched out his hand, and all the liquids in the medical cabin were sucked away and recovered, transferred to special inert metal cans, sealed, and then labeled with extremely important labels. Then new nutrient solution was sprayed out from the medical cabin, washing Chu Jungui's body. When it was full, another can was filled, and then a new round of washing began.
After three rounds of washing, Chu Jungui finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "That's enough!"
Dr. Zero laughed and said: "Such a rare sample, of course, we must keep more. How do you feel now?"
Chu Jungui felt his body and said, "The damage is 0.97%."
Dr. Zero nodded with satisfaction, "That's about right. It's been almost 30 hours since the world changed, and 24 hours have passed since the stabilization period. Just prepare yourself and enter again in an hour."
"No problem." Chu Jungui knew that normal people would need at least a month of rehabilitation and recovery training before they could re-enter after dying in a real dream. As a test subject, he certainly doesn't have this problem.
Before Dr. Ling left, Chu Jungui asked, "How is Lin Xi doing?"
The doctor smiled and said: "She is stronger than you. She successfully escaped the impact of the change and returned on her own initiative. Although she was slightly injured, it can be ignored."
"Yes." Chu Jungui nodded, lay down again, and the medical hatch slowly closed.
An hour later, as the countdown ended, Chu Jungui's vision dimmed, then recovered, and he entered a real dream again.
This time the surrounding environment was completely different. Chu Jungui appeared in the mountainous area. There was a small waterfall more than ten meters high not far ahead, and the water fell into the water pool below. After the pool overflows, it meanders along a rock-bottomed river.
There are lush forests on both sides, and the ground is still covered with poisonous moss.
"Mountains? It's a bit troublesome."
According to the information given by Dr. Zero, mountainous forest areas are one of the most dangerous initial area types, and the forest environment is the most suitable place for predators to hide. In addition, mountainous areas tend to have lower temperatures. After experiencing the power of the small wind here, Chu Jungui no longer dared to ignore low temperatures.
"Primitive survival? I'm good at this." Chu Jungui scanned the surroundings. Wherever he looked, all kinds of things were identified one by one, classified and filed in preparation for the next step of research.
After the real dream changes, the underlying physical rules of the world will be slightly adjusted, and a large part of the information Dr. Zero gave Chu Jungui has become invalid. However, Chu Jungui was prepared. Without the aid of external means such as chips and master brains, the test subjects would not only be the best warriors, but also the best researchers.
Another gust of wind blew through the forest, instantly interrupting Chu Jungui's train of thought and almost stopping his thinking! Being blown away by 15% of his heat at once made Chu Jungui realize the cruelty of reality. Before thinking about those lofty ideals, he must first get some clothes to wear! The fate of a naked butt is that three little winds are half dead and five little winds are finished.
Chu Jungui rubbed his hands and prepared to do it. As a test subject who started out with bare hands and continued to build the Underworld Cannon, making clothes is not a trivial matter?
Before he could take action, another gust of wind blew. This time Chu Jungui couldn't even shake the chills, and half of his body became numb and stiff. Moreover, the small wind passed through Chu Jungui's body and actually blew out a lot of things from Chu Jungui's body!
The mist transformed into a very faint figure in the air. Only the upper body could barely be seen, and the lower body was simply a wisp of mist. The little face with standard neutral beauty looked confused, looking around: "Where is this?"
Chu Jungui was shocked: "Open the sky?!"
