Chapter 31 Intelligence
"Restricted level psychic, number 1002 - 'Ji Minghuan', the instructor is here to visit, please prepare for interrogation as soon as possible."
The boy in hospital gown's eyelids trembled slightly.
The noises echoing in the room merged into my dreams, like the moment in the dead of winter when the icicles on top of the stalactite cave suddenly melted, cracked open with a "click", and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces, with icy debris flying all over the place.
Ji Minghuan pried open his eyelids and stared motionlessly at the silver-white ceiling.
The traces of the dream faded away, and the speaker-like broadcasting equipment was repeating the cold orders, which finally turned into a faint noise. Apart from the footsteps coming from the corridor, nothing could be heard, and the deathly silence once again enveloped the prison cell.
"The mentor is here..."
Ji Minghuan murmured softly and slightly raised his nose. Sure enough, he smelled the familiar smell of disinfectant.
He was about to get up when he suddenly felt a violent tearing sensation coming from deep within his brain, as if a nail had been driven into his skull, creating a hole and causing his brain to tremble.
Then, the low and hoarse reminder tone sounded in my ears again.
[Currently entering the "Complete Split Mode", you will have the perspective of both the "main body" and all "game characters" at the same time. 】
[Tip: If you cannot adapt to the complete split mode, you can enter the system panel interface of the game character and turn off the option switch. ]
Ji Minghuan took a deep breath, calmed his heartbeat, and lay quietly on the bed.
At this moment, two completely different pictures were appearing in his eyes.
Gu Wenyu suddenly opened his eyes in the dim room in Lijing, China, and stared at the dark ceiling with a dull expression like an artificial man. The time on the wall was 06:05 in the morning.
As for Ji Minghuan himself, he stared calmly at the dome of the prison cell. The cold light tubes arranged side by side were reflected in his dark pupils. It was a bit dazzling but he did not even blink.
The dim ceiling and the silver-white ceiling overlapped infinitely in his field of vision, just like placing two mirrors facing each other, reflecting endless double images, as if extending to the end of the world.
Fortunately, the tearing sensation from the skull did not cause any effect on Ji Minghuan:
——He had adjusted the "pain perception" in the game settings to the lowest level in advance, so the feeling at this moment was not serious, just like being flicked on the forehead by someone's finger.
Ji Minghuan controlled character number one "Gu Wenyu" to close his eyes and continue sleeping.
Afterwards, the perspective of game character No. 1 turned into a pitch-black darkness, and Ji Minghuan was no longer troubled by the unclear perspective.
He temporarily withdrew his consciousness from the body of Character No. 1 and stood up from the bed in the prison cell.
Subconsciously, he touched the collar around his neck.
At this time, the signal light was reflected on the side of his index finger. He lowered his eyes and saw that the light was still blue, which meant that the collar was still in a state of "no detection of the wearer's use of superpowers".
Ji Minghuan breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the bed.
Turning my head, I saw the iron doors at the entrance opening one after another.
The instructor was still wearing his usual white coat, the hem of which brushed the metal threshold, and he walked in leisurely with his hands behind his back.
Ji Minghuan didn't look at him, and asked without raising his head: "I haven't seen that officer uncle for several days. You don't want him to come now?"
"No, it doesn't make sense anymore." The instructor shook his head.
Ji Minghuan got out of bed, walked barefoot to the table, pulled a chair and sat down.
"Wow... I originally thought it was good for him to punish me from time to time, so that I could get more exercise and not lie there like a mummy."
He paused, looked away and said teasingly: "Anyway, he doesn't dare to do anything, he can only pretend to be powerful."
The instructor took a sip of tea and looked up at Ji Minghuan: "We plan to let you get in touch with other children."
"Other children?" Ji Minghuan was stunned.
"You should become very good friends with the other children who are imprisoned here."
"Why?" Ji Minghuan raised his eyebrows, not knowing what his teacher was planning to do. "Aren't you afraid that we might team up to break out of the prison or something like that?"
At this point, he added in his mind: Or maybe...actually those kids were also arranged by you.
"That's nothing to worry about." The instructor smiled, "We know the situation of every child here very well." He paused, "...Except you."
Ji Minghuan took it for granted: "I don't even know myself very well, let alone you."
He raised his hand to support his chin and tilted his head nonchalantly: "Come to think of it, didn't you promise me yesterday that you would tell me about the other two superhuman races?"
"Yes, today we are going to introduce these two forces to you." The instructor said, "Our people have begun to suspect that you are not a superpower, but a strange news user, or an exorcist."
He paused for a moment and said, "Unfortunately, neither the Psychic Gene, nor the Exorcist's Sky Drive Prototype, nor the Strange Stories of the Stranger, have been detected in you... This is what confuses us the most."
"Exorcist, wonder-monger?"
Ji Minghuan picked out these two names from the other party's words.
[The "Key Intelligence System" has been unlocked - the more information you learn about the "superhuman worldview", the higher the probability of the emergence of "game characters" with stronger initial values and greater potential. ]
[Current progress in the development of the worldview of the "Psychic" branch: 40%]
[Current progress in developing the worldview of the "Exorcist" branch: 5%]
[Current progress in the development of the worldview of the "Strange News" branch: 1%]
[Note: The improvement of "development progress" will depend on the "importance" of the intelligence obtained. ]
It seems that I was right not to create the character directly, otherwise I would have missed too many things... If I wait until I have learned everything from my mentor and then build the game character, I might come across one or two particularly rare "character files".
Ji Minghuan thought calmly, his eyes swept across the panel, and then carefully observed the instructor's reaction.
The other party didn't seem to notice anything unusual, but twisted the lid of the thermos cup and asked:
"Which one do you want to hear from me first?"
"'Strange News Messenger', sounds more interesting." Ji Minghuan said without hesitation.
The instructor put his fingers together and told the story in a tone similar to that of a story from a children's picture book: "A long time ago, there was a whale in the world. In the belly of the whale was..."
Ji Minghuan frowned and interrupted him: "Can you change your tone? Speak more normally. Are you telling a bedtime story to a three-year-old baby?"
There will be another chapter later, please vote for it.
