Chapter 613 Occasionally
As mentioned earlier, the Silver Dusk Cabin Club will recruit many unappreciated civilian scientists. Most of these people's research and inventions are contrary to today's mainstream academics or inconsistent with ethics.
Relatively well-known in this field is West, a medical genius from Miskatonic University. It is said that before he disappeared, his technology could basically resurrect the dead. There is no guarantee whether the thing is still the same as the deceased himself.
It’s the same sentence - sometimes it’s sex that kills you, but often it’s occasionally.
The people gathered in Silver Dusk House are all the top social figures. They either hold great power or huge wealth. Most of the time, the hard work of scientists on the stage is the same as the circus performance for them. There is no essential difference, except for research like West's that overturns the laws of nature.
So it's not surprising that the invitation letter was sent to Emma's house.
…
As for Yinmu’s stage, what kind of method is he to commit suicide?
Look at this opening show and you will understand.
…
Milo and Yan were sitting in the darkest corner of the banquet. Their eyes were not entirely focused on the stage at first. For these two guys who were already at a higher life level, those 80% of them were random scientific research results. Unattractive.
The two people, who had their own agendas, focused more on the seats at the front of the banquet.
This is probably the tacit understanding mode between Milo and Yan that rarely appears.
Whenever Milo sets his sights on someone in the front row, Yan will accurately tell some information about that person.
For example, the middle-aged man in front of him was chatting happily with the guests and seemed to be a master——
"Carl Sanford, the president of Silver Dusk Lodge, or the high priest."
Beside him was a man in a wheelchair who didn't interact much with the guests. Thirty years old, but with an air of forty or fifty, the person next to him looks even older. He has very short blond hair, and glasses with thick lenses hanging on the bridge of his nose. At this moment, he is staring at the top of the stage attentively and with a scrutinizing gaze.
“This is Lonnie William, who was born in Miskatonic. If you occasionally look through weird scientific research magazines, you may have seen his name to some extent. Some of this guy’s academic remarks are still very interesting. Tricky, he should be the scientific research consultant of Yinmu Cabin at the moment."
"Scientific research magazines, do you still read this kind of thing?" Milo glanced back and confirmed again that the person sitting next to him was. Yan is right.
“I won’t read it.” Yan lit another cigarette.
"..."
…
Probably influenced by Lonnie William, both Milo and Yan were attracted by the scientific research results displayed on the stage.
The person who is explaining the results of his research projects and equipment is a black scholar.
You must know that in the current social atmosphere, it is very rare to be able to stand on the stage with this kind of skin color and not play the role of a circus clown.
Of course, it is unavoidable that people in the audience may still regard this as a clown show.
…
The black man’s research project is human body modification.
But different from the concept of mechanical ascension in Milo's memory, this black scholar's research concept is the decomposition of the human body. He believes that when the soul is strong enough, there is no need to rely on body systems and cell synthesis. Instead, the soul, or the brain, should take the lead and control the entire body system, thereby achieving some functions that are considered "miracles" in traditional concepts, such as the rapid healing of wounds.
“The brain is so tired.” Yan listened to the black people’s blablabla on the stage and let out a heartfelt sigh.
Yes, if the entire body system is controlled by subjective thinking, it means that even cell regeneration and blood transportation are done personally...
"What should I do if I forget to breathe while sleeping?" Soon Someone in the audience asked similar questions.
The black scholar on the stage said that he had a more intuitive and powerful verification method.
He took off his heavy coat, showing a horrifying cut mark on his elbow. Although it had been completely healed, the skin seemed to be deeply dented by thin lines. The scars are still very physically uncomfortable.
The black scholar said that he had experimented in the past, completely cutting off his left forearm, and then achieved short-term complete healing and regeneration, and the whole process took very little time, and did not even use any medical methods.
However, a scar alone is obviously not convincing.
In order to gain the favor of the club and the financial support from the wealthy businessmen in the audience.
He completely took the plunge and changed his original plan of using animals for experimental demonstrations, asking his assistant to point the cutting machine blade toward his body.
Of course, some preparations needed to be done before that. He first attached many electrodes to his forehead and temples, and used the device he developed to conduct experiments on his brain and soul. An "enhancement" of maximum power.
After a burst of crackling movement.
Milo and Yan, who were far away in the far corner of the banquet, could vaguely smell the smell of burning skin.
But the black man was not cooked, and his behavior became more excited than before, even a little crazy.
…
So, with many female guests covering their eyes and screaming, the cutting began.
Arms, thighs...
Even the neck...
What is shocking and incredible is that during the entire process when the cutting machine cut off the limbs of the black scholar, he maintained clear consciousness and said that he had successfully controlled his nerves. The signal is transmitted without feeling any pain, and even instructs the assistant how to dismember himself more smoothly.
The most terrifying thing is that even after this guy’s head was removed, he continued to transmit his research concepts and ideas to the audience, saying that after his assistant put his body back together again, Within minutes he was fully healed and back to full health.
You must know that the stage is already covered with blood at this moment...
And the guests in the banquet hall made various exclamations or cheers at this moment, because they had never seen it before A head that can talk, and even more so, some people have begun to bid for it, saying that they must buy the patent.
...But Yan and Milo in the corner were discussing some unrelated topics.
“Have you ever heard of such a saying?”
“How do you say it?”
“Just say that people will change after death. Stars in the sky ”
"Oh~ I've heard of that."
"If we calculate it this way, will that guy become 5 stars?"
"6."
"Ah, I made a mistake in my calculation. That's right, it's 6."
......
Facts have proved that the black scholar may have really touched upon an unknown research field, or his theory itself was obtained from some scattered evil classics and is part of taboo knowledge.
It has indeed achieved the goal of maintaining self-will in a state of mortality.
Maybe, maybe, maybe his theories are correct, maybe he actually cut off his left arm and achieved wound healing and regeneration driven by his will.
It's a pity that the theory is incomplete. He didn't even consider how to recover the blood that was scattered on the stage. He had no idea how many living things it would take to completely heal such a serious tissue injury. able.
Conservation, conservation, whether it is energy or matter, under the existing rules and order of the waking world, he violated the core law of conservation.
If he had just cut off one arm today, then if the body's own energy and material were enough to support the loss required for recovery, there should not be 6 more stars in the sky.
…
It didn’t take long.
On the stage, the scholar’s eloquent speech suddenly stopped at a certain moment.
The head that was dancing with joy a second ago suddenly seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, and there was no more movement.
The entire banquet scene was frozen for about seven or eight seconds. It wasn't until people realized something that women started to scream.
And some curse words:
"Clean that damn fool off!"
"Stupid! I told you this was impossible."
“Oh my god, who planned this show? They deliberately disgusted us, right?”
…
“What are you doing?” Milo glanced at Yan next to him.
Yan is holding his chin at this moment, looking up at the sky directly above:
“Look for the stars.”
……
The first farce ended with ketchup all over the floor.
Before the stage was cleared, the atmosphere of the banquet had returned to normal. People calmly chatted about unfinished topics, or continued to enjoy the half-eaten cake or champagne.
Then without stopping, the second farce began.
But compared to the mysterious and mysterious theoretical knowledge explained by the previous one, the expressions of this young man who took over the death baton are more down-to-earth.
Rather than saying that he is a scientific researcher, it is better to think of him as a "practical religious person".
Why do you say that?
First of all, he is creative.
Because this guy invented a device that is completely unavailable in Nanwei City - a humidifier.
And it is a relatively crude version, assembled from only a few glass instruments and shells.
As for why this guy is still a religious person, that’s because, along with the humidifier, there was also a sealed cage with iron bars on the inside and glass on the outside. , a young woman with a haggard face was currently being held in the cage. Her skin was as white as snow, which made the blood marks on her collarbone that were pierced by chains appear even more scarlet and dazzling.
But the young woman was not human. After being awakened by the stage lights, she quickly roared and revealed her ferocious fangs and claws, tearing at the chains crazily and hitting the iron bars of the cage.
This is a vampire.
The scholar’s invention can be simply summarized as:
“Pour holy water into the humidifier, and a vampire gas chamber will be born.”
And it seems that the per capita sanity value of the Silver Dusk Cabin Club is very strong. In other words, vampires are originally a creature that they know exists in the world. Even if they have not seen it with their own eyes, they have heard of it,
…
……
“That one should be one of your unrelated sisters, right? Didn’t you say you were here to save people?”
Milo glanced at Yan who was indifferent next to him.
At this moment, Yan was putting his hands on the table and supporting his chin, looking intoxicated at the woman on the stage who was roaring and struggling in the "gas chamber", and let out a puzzling sigh:
"Don't you think she looks so charming like this?"
