Chapter 624: Using Technology to Counter Magic

Let me come again?

Hearing the words of the Cleanup Bureau Director, Director Aquarius couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling that his brain was really boiling.

If one were to rank the pain in this world by degree, the process of being memory-read by a God-level brain-eating demon would definitely count as one.

That slender tongue with purple-red meat tumors, every time it lightly brushed along the brain grooves, squeezing out the memories bit by bit, besides the pain of "self" slowly flowing away, there was also tangible physical torture.

The entire process of memory reading is completely walked through, it is simply like being kicked by hundreds of burning feet, one after another, into the crotch, and all aiming at a certain important position, kicking for more than ten minutes without stopping for a second. It is simply not a pain that humans can endure!

"Impossible! I..."

"Sorry, since it involves the safety of the Watchtower, please come again."

"Then what if it still doesn't work after coming again?"

"Don't worry, it will definitely be fine this time!"

Looking at Director Aquarius's forehead with blue veins jumping, the Cleanup Bureau Director, who also understood how painful the process was, couldn't help but guarantee with a slightly apologetic expression:

"Before you woke up, the Taurus Director had already overhauled the Memory Dream Furnace and temporarily repaired the corroded part. This time, I guarantee there will be no problems!"

Taurus?

Hearing the Cleanup Bureau Director's guarantee, the raging anger in Director Aquarius's eyes finally calmed down a little.

As an Ascender who can be chosen by the Watchtower, the Taurus Director's character is beyond doubt. Even if she stands on his "opposite side", presumably she will not play dirty in such matters.

In addition, what really caused the Memory Dream Furnace to have problems might not really be the brain-eating demon's stomach acid, but his side had made a mistake. After all, the brain in his cranial cavity is not the original one, and it is inevitable that something will go wrong.

No way, it seems he can only accept reading again.

Looking at the Director who was saying sorry but whose eyes revealed an irresistible meaning, Director Aquarius did not make any more meaningless struggles, but took a deep breath, stood in front of the God-level brain-eating demon again with a gloomy face...

……

When he decided to take action, he had already considered the possibility of being memory-read and prepared the corresponding solution.

Although the memory reading of a God-level brain-eating demon cannot be resisted, it is ultimately memory reading through "physical" contact, and does not involve soul means. As long as you change to a completely identical brain, you can muddle through its exploration.

And in order to be able to hold on to memory reading at a critical moment, he swallowed the water of 【Twin Mirror Lake】, manufactured a replica of the same level, and after killing the other self with the means prepared in advance, he directly took out the other self's brain.

Next, as long as this replicated brain is allowed to sleep, and then manufactured dreams that are realistic enough for it to watch, it can create false memories that are almost impeccable.

If one day it is really possible to be memory-read, then perform a brain transplant surgery in the Kewangguo Kingdom and temporarily replace it with a fake brain. Even if it cannot be 100% identical in the end, achieving 95% similarity is still possible.

The only loophole is that the memories of the other brain come from dreams, so the squeezed memories are not realistic enough and somewhat intermittent. If someone observes directly, it is very likely to be exposed.

But fortunately, the brain-eating demon does not give the original memory directly, but replicates it into a dream through the 【Memory Dream Furnace】 and then takes it out. Under the process of dream-to-dream, this last 5% of regrets is made up.

After all, he is the real Director Aquarius, the brain, although not the original one, is also "his own" brain, and the memories in the brain are even more completely consistent with his own rhetoric, just a little blurry, which is enough to muddle through.

As for why there is a problem now... could it be because the time was advanced?

Glancing in the direction of the Gemini Branch Director and getting the reply that no one had played tricks and it was indeed the Memory Dream Furnace that had problems, Director Aquarius couldn't help but sigh with bad luck. When he was undergoing brain transplant surgery in the Gemini Branch, the doctor who performed the surgery said that it would take about two or three days to adapt, and the new brain could be completely synchronized with the body.

And because of the sudden appearance of the Cleanup Bureau Director, the inquiry against him was advanced by a whole day, causing the newly replaced brain to not be fully awake, so the memory reading was not in place.

However, fortunately, he thought of this possibility, and the doctor in the Kewangguo Kingdom also gave a way to deal with this situation.

Secretly pressing the thin copper sheet embedded in the back of his head, and increasing the current used to activate the brain a little, Director Aquarius and his fake brain were once again completely submerged by hundreds of tongues full of meat tumors...

……

Little Leon... we might have trouble...

After reading the "partial memory of Director Aquarius" sent to him, looking at Leon who was saying something to the Director on the main stage, the red-haired Director couldn't help but sigh, crushed the round ball containing the memory dream, and silently said sorry to Leon in her heart.

Although the Memory Dream Furnace suddenly had a problem, causing Director Aquarius's memory to only replicate about 5% in the end, but with this 5% of memory, it was enough to see the clues.

In order to be able to press Director Aquarius to death in one breath, she, Beverly, and the Gemini Branch Director who took the initiative to provide a large amount of evidence after learning about the situation, had done a lot of investigations during this period, and it could be said that they had figured out 80% or 90% of his actions.

However, in this 5% or so of memory, Director Aquarius's actual actions were vastly different and did not match the information she and others had summarized at all.

So if her guess was correct, Director Aquarius had mostly prepared other backups in these twenty or thirty years, and even found a way to deceive the God-level brain-eating demon.

Although it successfully dragged through the first wave of memory reading because of the sudden failure of the 【Memory Dream Furnace】, after the overhaul of Taurus, the next reading will definitely not have problems. It seems that she will definitely not be able to escape memory reading, and even Leon will be affected.

Really... her initiating the inquiry was still a bit too hasty. If she could have prepared more, maybe she wouldn't be so passive, at least she wouldn't have involved Leon...

……

"I just touched it, the operation of this thing is completely normal!"

The red-haired Director, who was frowning, was regretting her lack of preparation when Leon on the main stage patted his chest hard and guaranteed to the Cleanup Bureau Director with a firm face:

"After the Taurus Director overhauled it, the efficacy of this thing is much stronger than before, and it will definitely be fine to use it normally!"

"That's good, I hope it won't fail again this time."

After receiving guarantees from two "professionals" in a row, the Cleanup Bureau Director couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, without doubting at all that someone might have played tricks.

And Leon beside him, while looking at his expression, switched out 【Elite Performer】 and applied eye drops at the right time:

"Speaking of failure... Director, actually, when I touched it the first time, there was no problem with this thing, it should be able to be used normally. Although the 【Memory Dream Furnace】 is indeed a bit old, it hasn't reached the point of failure yet.

And I guess the Taurus Director should also think so, but she probably didn't find other problems, and you didn't have time to wait for her to overhaul it slowly, so she could only temporarily judge that the Memory Dream Furnace had appeared damaged."

Huh?

Hearing Leon's reminder, the Cleanup Bureau Director couldn't help but be slightly startled, then first looked at the Taurus Director from afar, found that she was indeed frowning and thinking about something, and then said thoughtfully:

"You mean... the problem might be on Director Aquarius's side?"
