Fingertips caressing the DNA potion.
The rough, frosted texture felt like the smoothest skin in the world in Colonel Chu's hands.
While watching, he said:
"Lin An, it's a very simple inference."
"Punishment dungeon is just a name, its essence is a high-difficulty dungeon, right?"
"But, is the system really punishing you?"
"If it is really punishment, why not just take away all your power, or simply wipe it out? Why bother?"
Lin An couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at Chu An, whose eyes were gradually changing.
What the hell, is this potion special?
Regarding Colonel Chu's words, Lin An subconsciously retorted:
"Didn't we speculate?"
"The system is very rigid and it has to leave a way for players to survive."
"This is a rule that must be followed in all situations such as missions of any difficulty, dungeons, etc."
"It's not that it doesn't want to kill us, but it can't."
"What's more, the punishment copy is the same as death reprieve."
"If your guess is wrong, you will die. And even if your guess is right, it is no different than going to jail."
"Without the third-level key, I would have to stay in there for at least several decades!"
Chu Anhun didn't care about his rebuttal, he just raised the potion in his hand high in the air, looking obsessively at the silver luster in the test tube under the light:
"You're just talking about one of them."
"But you missed one point."
"Lin An..."
"Will prison allow you to bring a companion?"
"What did Gao Tian and the others do wrong? What loophole did they exploit?"
"You think you can bring them in if you want?"
"It's like you are sentenced, why can the people around you also go to jail?"
"Is it convenient for you to escape from prison?"
"Don't worry about this problem, think about it in another person's shoes."
Colonel Chu put down the potion in his hand and looked at Lin An's face seriously:
"It's a simple truth."
"Every player who is punished is actually the best player among many."
"After all, how can loopholes and errors be so easy to find?"
"These players are like the smartest monkeys in the zoo. Will the zoo be willing to kill them?"
"The answer is no."
"After the administrator discovers them, he will definitely try to train the smart monkeys?"
"Train monkeys to perform shows and amuse tourists."
"Of course, the premise is that these monkeys cannot be allowed to "climb over the wall", "escape" and steal food from other monkeys every day without any scruples."
"That's the ground rule."
"Therefore, after the system throws these smart monkeys into the punishment copy, it is essentially testing whether the monkeys are really smart or fake."
"It's really smart. Being able to crack the mission without exploiting loopholes and system power means it has great potential."
"If you pretend to be clever and accidentally hit the monkey who comes into contact with the loophole, the end result will naturally be to clean it up."
It seems like a smile but not a smile.
Chu An pushed the potion in front of him, with a hint of self-mockery in his eyes:
"A really smart monkey will naturally get the best reward."
"Of course, when I tell you this, I am not telling you to take the initiative to trigger the punishment copy for the sake of rewards."
"The danger is too great."
"Just like the animals in the circus that died during training. Difficult training brings more food, but they also die very quickly..."
Lin An was stunned.
He really hadn't thought about punishing the copy from this perspective.
Are you a monkey in the zoo?
Although the metaphor is difficult to hear, it is easy to understand.
only.
Lin An frowned. The reason why he didn't agree with Chu An's concept from the beginning was largely because the reward was really nothing special.
To be honest, he really didn't see the use of this potion.
"[Amoeba Reagents-Modified], Special Genetic Drugs"
"Drug effect: After taking this potion, you will obtain the integrated properties of the amoeba."
"Integrated features: Information between each amoeba will be shared, and you will simultaneously obtain information obtained by other amoeba, regardless of distance."
"Drug Note: We are one."
The silver-white reagent in the hand feels heavy to the touch, and the top end of the DNA-like helical structure inside splits into filaments.
Regarding this potion, Lin An only rated it as tasteless.
Integration and information sharing.
Assuming there is another amoeba in reality, then whatever it knows, it will know.
To put it simply, isn't this thing just a phone?
As for ignoring distance, it may be better than a mobile phone, but there is a chat channel in the doomsday game...
Although using the channel consumes energy, for him now, or for most awakened people, it is just like that.
Those who are restricted are ordinary players. Even in the middle and late stages, ordinary players can withstand the consumption of chat channels after upgrading their levels.
A thing that can only "talk" to each other with amoeba. This thing is simply the most rubbish prop Lin An has ever seen.
the reason is simple.
There are no amoebas in the real world, and they will be gone once this potion is used up.
What is obtained is only the integrated characteristic. Unlike the original amoeba, this characteristic can neither strengthen the power simultaneously nor infect other people.
Therefore, in Lin An's opinion, this tube of medicine is just a mobile phone that cannot make calls.
I don’t know why Colonel Chu is so interested.
On the other side of the table, Chu An stuffed the eaten bag into his pocket and saw that Lin An didn't care.
He couldn't help but chuckle and said slowly:
"Lin An, do you remember what you told me."
"In the amoeba copy, your power to absorb emotions is cut off."
"In your judgment, the emotional power of more than ten million people is enough to increase your strength."
"Following up, you even speculated that amoeba can absorb emotions to strengthen its strength, and Gao Tian also came to the wrong conclusion..."
Lin An's pupils suddenly shrank after hearing this.
indeed!
He almost forgot about it!
There is no amoeba boss in the black tower, and there is no such thing as absorbing mood-boosting power.
Then how could my talents and props fail?
In just one second, he reacted instantly.
"Amoeba blocks the transmission of information, that is, emotions!?"
"So, the amoeba doesn't need to absorb emotions at all, it just needs not to receive emotional information!?"
"No wonder my gift failed."
A sudden realization.
The nature of the reinforcing power of emotions:
It's like everyone transfers one dollar to Lin An, but the amoeba blocks the transfer and prevents the transfer information from being sent out.
Therefore, there is naturally no strengthening at all.
My heart was racing, but I calmed down in an instant.
He understood Colonel Chu's subtext.
"Chu An, you want me to spread the amoeba, or simply infect most people."
"In this way, we can completely break through the distance limit when absorbing emotions!?"
"I don't need people around me. I can absorb emotions and strengthen my strength even on the other side of the earth..."
Even if a person can only strengthen himself by 0.01...
Ten thousand people means 100%, and one hundred thousand people means 1000%!
As long as there are enough infected people, even if he is tens of thousands of kilometers away, Chu An can give a speech at the base and exaggerate his emotions.
In an instant, the emotions of tens of thousands or even millions of people will be directly absorbed by him regardless of distance.
This is equivalent to turning everyone into his own "battery".
Chu An looked enthusiastic and nodded heavily:
"Imagine what kind of power you will gain if you forcefully stimulate the emotions of millions of people!"
"No matter how short the time it takes for your emotions to increase your power, within those few seconds, you will explode with power beyond your limits!"
Having said that.
Lin An couldn't help but immerse himself in the scene described by Colonel Chu, and rejected his idea with difficulty:
"But we don't have amoeba solution."
"This tube of reagent will be gone once used. System props cannot be decomposed and studied."
Somewhat annoyed.
Lin An suddenly regretted that he had not collected the amoeba solution or the amoeba virus.
He was resistant to that thing and had no intention of keeping any part of it.
It's normal, just like who would extract the zombie virus from their body?
Unexpected.
Chu An stood up suddenly and stared directly into his eyes, half-smiling but not smiling:
"No."
"You brought it back."
"What?"
Lin An couldn't help but look up with a surprised look on his face, only to see Colonel Chu softly utter two words:
"arm."
"You brought back Zhang Tie's arm."
"It was infected with a lot of amoeba viruses."
