Chapter 4508

"You mean, you want to enter her memory?" Jonathan Crane sat behind the desk, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and then said, "You should be very clear about how dangerous this is, Schiller. This isn't the treatment difficulty of a fat middle-aged arms dealer who makes an appointment on Saturday afternoon to tell you about his unrequited love history."

Victor frowned on the side. What kind of work does this group of psychologists usually take?

"I don't need you to remind me of this, Professor Crane," Schiller sat opposite him, his hands resting on the armrests, "Since I proposed this plan, I naturally have full confidence."

"I would very much like to hear what confidence you have," Jonathan sneered, "Doing this kind of thing, even if God came, he wouldn't dare say he has absolute confidence."

"God has never been able to stop me, not before, and not this time," Schiller's tone revealed a chill.

"Fine, since you've made up your mind, then I don't need to persuade you. Let's talk about Novi," Jonathan became excited, he said, "The mastermind behind the scenes who resurrected them must have done something in their mental field. But how he did it, no one knows. Even just to figure this out, we have to find another experimental subject."

"No," Schiller shook his head, "I will enter Novi's mental world directly."

"Oh my god, I didn't know you were such a radical person before. This kind of treatment plan of yours wouldn't pass in any hospital," Jonathan said. After speaking, he looked at Brand, who had been silent.

"Don't look at me, I specialize in brain science and pathology," Brand said, "I am skeptical about the existence of the so-called mental field."

"What do you think?" Schiller insisted on asking him.

Brand took out a pile of materials and said: "From the perspective of brain examination imaging data, no problems can be seen. No regular lesions were found in the brains of these living corpses."

"Brain wave activity?" Jonathan also looked at the pile of materials.

"No obvious abnormalities seen," Brand projected the imaging data onto the projection screen and said, "I have considered pituitary lesions. Because you orally told me that living corpses have the ability to actively urge themselves to obtain huge power. This might be because the pituitary gland secretes some special hormone. But the examination results didn't show anything."

"However, I still think Novi's situation is very special," Brand changed the subject and said, "I think this might be the key to Hugo being able to break through the control of the mastermind behind the scenes and perform special brainwashing on her."

"What is it?"

"She is very weak," Brand took out a physical examination report and said, "Although no autopsy was performed, after a physical examination of her physical condition, doctors all believe that her heart and lung function has reached a precarious point. To be radical, her physical condition should have lost normal mobility long ago due to insufficient blood supply to the heart. But she can move freely now, which itself is abnormal."

"We assume that the death power distributed to everyone by the mastermind behind the scenes is consistent, and won't give more because someone is particularly weak. That these powers are likely unable to wake Novi up."

Schiller frowned. He could probably understand what Brand meant. Although he wasn't very clear about the specific principle of death power resurrecting others, no matter how miserable they died at the time, they were all lively and active when they came back.

For example, Cyborg Victor's mother, because she encountered a serious car accident, couldn't even be buried in a complete form, and the mortician didn't have a good way. But when she came back, she was still a complete person.

This means that death power definitely didn't reset them back to the moment before death. Otherwise, everyone should be injured, and some might not even be in human form.

He must have jumped the time node forward, restoring the resurrected people to a period with relatively good conditions. And because the resurrected people look relatively close to the age when they died, it is possible that it was during that period near death, picking a time when physical fitness was best, as the state of resurrection.

However, Novi has a problem. That is, her body has never been good since birth, whether it was at the time of death, or before death, her body was in a half-dead state. Even when she was just born, I'm afraid she was also very weak.

In this situation, if the death power given by the mastermind behind the scenes isn't enough, resurrection might fail. Novi is like a damp piece of firewood, it can't be lit with a match, at least it needs a flame sprayer.

However, Novi still woke up. This itself is abnormal. Brand is analyzing this point, he said: "I suspect that in the process of resurrection, the human body will actively allocate death power, choosing a plan most likely to wake up, to let the corpse resurrect."

"Too ridiculous," Victor said, "Will a corpse actively allocate death power?"

"Actually, it's not strange," Brand said, "You might have heard such a theory, that is, after a person is beheaded, there will still be a period of consciousness, eye movement, and facial expressions."

"Isn't that muscle reflex?" Victor frowned.

"Not entirely," Brand said, "The brain doesn't shut down the moment the power supply is cut off. This process is usually delayed. The delay depends on when the brain realizes it is dead."

"Sounds a bit idealistic," Victor clearly didn't understand this aspect of the content.

"It is indeed like this. Human consciousness's regulation of the human body is much stronger than people imagine. Even the brain is like this. So I think, after discovering that the death power wasn't enough to resurrect this corpse, that is, when Novi was in a half-alive half-dead state, her brain actively allocated death power to supply energy to herself, and then, relying on extremely strong willpower, woke up."

Schiller listened very carefully, thought about it carefully, and said: "You mean, death power is likely to enrich in her brain area."

"Yes. This means that you entering her mental field will be more dangerous than previously expected. Most importantly, you cannot disperse the death power in the process of lifting her hypnosis, otherwise, she might turn back into a corpse."

"This is troublesome," Jonathan said somewhat gloatingly, "If only her brain is alive now, then you can't even give her anesthesia. Because once her brain stops working, it might never be able to restart."

"Are chemical means useless too?" Schiller looked at him and asked.

Jonathan was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect him to ask this. He turned and took a piece of paper from the side, and started writing and drawing. Victor leaned over to look, and was glared at by Jonathan.

"What are you doing? I won't steal your formula."

"Tch, as if you could steal it," Jonathan said disdainfully, "I just don't want you to point fingers at my excellent design with your cold brain, go away!"

Victor wanted to pull out his gun on the spot, but after thinking about it, he gave up the action. Jonathan wrote and drew there for a long time, slapped the table, paused for a long time before opening his mouth, and finally said: "I have an idea, but it might not work. But if it works, it will be very effective..."

"Hurry up and say it," Victor rolled his eyes.

"Don't rush, you can't run either," Jonathan said, "First, to prevent her body from dying, we need to freeze her. That is, use the technology you use to freeze your wife with this cold brain..."

Victor opened his eyes wide and said: "Freeze her?"

"That's right. Didn't your wife also get very sick back then?"

"Who told you that?" Victor said, "Nora just had a relatively rare degenerative disease back then. If left to develop, there might be a life danger. But she herself hadn't deteriorated to the point of dying. I wouldn't take action until then."

"But you do have this technology, right?"

"I'm just saying, their situations are different, and they can't be treated the same. Besides, after being frozen, the brain is also operating in a low-temperature state, and brain wave activity is reduced to the lowest. How can you ensure that her mental field won't be closed because of this?"

"This is my field," Jonathan said, "Before she is frozen, use my fear toxin to make her brain reach an extremely excited state, and then use freezing to lower her temperature. This can keep her brain waves in a relatively flat and controllable range."

"But what's the point of this?" Victor said, "The difficulty of the operation now lies in the fact that Schiller's activities in her brain might lead to mental meltdown and brain death. And brain death means physical death. Because her body is already too poor to survive. In a low-temperature state, this situation won't change."

"No, no," Jonathan said, "It's still possible to change. What is the principle of your low-temperature technology that seals the human body?"

"In a low-temperature state, the body's power consumption will be suppressed to the lowest, entering a dormant state close to death. This can almost infinitely extend the decay process of the human body..."

"That's it," Jonathan tapped the table and said, "Power consumption is reduced to the lowest, then her weak heart and lung function won't be a problem. At this time, the brain might release the death power enriched in the brain area to other parts of the body. Because it detects that the energy is enough. The corpse can truly be resurrected, without relying on willpower to manipulate."

Everyone looked at Brand. Brand also thought for a long time, and then said: "This is indeed possible. But we cannot determine whether it is brain control or death power control."

"How do you say?"

"Although I think enriching death power is the brain's autonomous behavior, it doesn't exclude that death power discovered that resurrecting the body was useless, and actively entered the brain, focusing on strengthening willpower."

"What's the difference between the two?" Victor asked.

"The difference lies in. If death power really has the function of automatically optimizing the resurrection plan, it means that it is not just a force, but a will. In this situation, Schiller cannot enter Novi's mental field. Otherwise, he is very likely to face the mastermind behind the scenes directly."

"I don't think this is possible," Schiller said, "If death power had autonomous will, it wouldn't have lost so miserably in other universes. And, if facing death power directly is facing Nekron directly, then how did Hugo successfully hypnotize Novi?"

"The problem is here," Brand leaned back in his chair and said, "How do you know this isn't a trap he manufactured for you? The purpose is to trick you into Novi's mental field, and then let you face that guy directly."

"It's him who doesn't dare to face me," Schiller said coldly, "Otherwise there would be no need to let the living corpses walk around me."
