Chapter 75 The boy asked
Wang Jixuan built a temporary secret room with curtains.
He didn't rush to use the soul-catching talisman, which was his special skill. He just made a spell and recited a spell silently.
A little light penetrates here.
Meng Cai's soul, which was already about to leave his body, slowly sat up and passed through the barrier of the nutrition warehouse.
The young man was stunned for a moment, looking down at his body lying in the cabin, and then looking calmly at Wang Jixuan, who was wearing a helmet.
The young man's voice appeared in Wang Jixuan's heart.
The two communicated in silence.
"Who are you?" The young man's voice was a little timid.
"Codename Black Storm, military psyker," Wang Jixuan introduced himself via voice, "My ability is to occasionally talk to the souls of people who are dying."
"Okay, Mr. Storm," the boy asked, "What do you need me to do for you?"
Wang Jixuan stared at this soul: "Can you communicate with the Blade Beast?"
The boy seemed to be thinking.
His mood was unexpectedly calm, so calm that there was no wave at all, like a... polite machine.
"Actually, it's not a communication. It's at most a simple instruction to them."
The young man said softly:
"If it is according to what professors and researchers have said, this is an interference signal that interferes with the communication system of the blade beast. The low-level blade beast will recognize me as a general-level blade beast life form.
"Similarly, this requires the cooperation of some instruments. Due to my own condition, the psychic energy fluctuations I can release are very weak.
"They often jokingly call that device, an amplifier."
Wang Jixuan became more curious about this young man and asked as calmly as possible: "Aren't you sleeping all the time? Why do you know this?"
"It's just my body that's unconscious."
The young man said calmly:
"You are the first psychic who can communicate with me in this state. In the past, I would only observe them in this state.
“It should be about your own abilities.
"Back to your question just now, my accurate answer is - I can give orders to a small number of blade beasts and send them unilateral messages, but I cannot understand them."
Wang Jixuan nodded slowly: "Are there many individuals like you in the Thirteen Institutes?"
“In a way, little is also a lot.”
The boy quickly explained:
“The research directions within the Thirteen Institutes should be extremely confusing, and they are divided into thousands of research groups.
"Based on the information I got from observing them for a long time, I am an individual born by chance, so there are very few of them.
"But I'm not a normal human being.
"I am descended from an S-class psyker known as the 'Beast Whisperer'. His stem cells were used as raw materials for cloning to cultivate me. My ideal lifespan can only reach the age of thirty-seven. Forty-two years old.
"Of the clones in the same batch as me, 3,400 survived initially. After the psychic infusion experiment, 320 remained. After more than ten years of cultivation and various experiments, there are now twelve, but their respective awakened souls The abilities vary, and there are three people who are slightly similar to the bestiality whisperers.
"So in a sense, there could be a lot of individuals like me - as long as they increase the number of samples they put out."
Wang Jixuan leaned back slightly and stared at the young man with a frown: "Where are your... emotions? Why can't I feel the changes in your emotions?"
"I had part of my brain removed."
The boy said calmly.
Perhaps because of his soul state, his eyes were very gentle.
"Mr. Storm, if you need me, I can fake some emotions. - In fact, I have emotions, but they are weak.
"For example, when facing Researcher Qin Qin, I will show my gentle and timid side.
"She is actually a poor person. When she was a student in her early years, she was raped by her tutor in the laboratory in order to complete her thesis. I was about eight years old at the time and was not far from her. Later, her tutor treated her as a pet and followed her. Some old people's pets are exchanged with each other.
“Many times, such unsavory things happen in laboratories that require cleanliness.
"So, I can understand why Researcher Qin Qin kept stimulating and playing with my male sexual characteristics when she was studying my sample. She used this to gain the pleasure of completely controlling a living individual and fill her once-injured heart.
"But I think our current soul-based communication should be the most essential and sincere communication...I don't need to attach those emotions."
Wang Jixuan crossed his arms, took two steps back, and carefully looked at the boy's physical condition.
Wang Daochang asked: "Then can you sense the location of the blade beast?"
"It requires the cooperation of instruments to sense occasionally, and each time they have to operate for a long time, similar to a kind of bioradar."
The young man said calmly:
"I only have a small part of the ability of the beast whisperer, and the current ability to observe everywhere."
"Your soul is out of body, which is proof that your soul is stronger."
Wang Jixuan explained simply.
This was also the reason why he asked Lingtong to leave first.
Although Lingtong's body is strong and her robotic arms are astonishingly lethal, her soul's protective power is not very strong.
"Have you finished asking?" the young man asked.
"Yes," Wang Jixuan nodded lightly.
There was a faint sense of uneasiness in the young man's eyes: "Then can I ask you a few questions? About four questions will do... This is the first time you and I have interacted with each other in such a sincere and non-false way. Human beings who communicate openly and directly.”
"Okay," Wang Jixuan said, "I can see the state of your soul. You have indeed not done anything evil, and you have helped the military several times before to mislead the blade beasts."
"That's good."
The boy regained his composure:
"The first question is...will you be happy if your parents love you?"
Wang Jixuan was startled.
There was a bit of longing in the young man's eyes.
Wang Jixuan was not sure whether the young man wanted to hear a positive answer or a negative answer. He did not want to lie to this soul that was so pure that it was almost as white as a piece of paper.
Wang Jixuan smiled bitterly: "I can't answer this question. There is only a vague fence courtyard in my memory. I am ashamed of my parents. My teacher took me away from them with enough gold and silver jewelry to make them rich for a lifetime." ”
The young man said hurriedly: "I sympathize with your experience. I'm sorry, but I didn't know you had any experience of being trafficked."
Wang Jixuan:......
Forget it, you can’t see anything like a child.
He said: "It's nothing. You still know a lot about human society."
"I would secretly read the books they were reading, listen to their chats, and then try my best to imagine what kind of world it was outside the nutrition warehouse." The young man smiled, and then asked:
"Have you ever experienced love? Love is beautiful, isn’t it? That’s a problem.”
Wang Jixuan groaned a few times, and several lights and shadows flashed across his heart.
When he was lazy in practicing Qigong and lying under a tree enjoying the breeze in the mountains, he leaned over his little junior sister who called "senior brother"; Silk gaze;
There is also a beautiful girl with a physical disability and a strong will. When she rests her forehead on her back, her Taoist heart palpitates...
"It should be wonderful," Wang Jixuan said with a smile, "I haven't experienced it yet, but I should experience it in the future to complete my life experience."
The young man's eyes suddenly became brighter: "This is an additional question - does love mean what Researcher Qin Qin often does to me? Or does love need to be greater than lust, and mutual warmth should be greater than venting desire? "
"I really can't explain this."
Wang Jixuan smiled bitterly and said:
"I'm not a philosopher."
"Sorry, Mr. Storm, I was too presumptuous...but I can feel through the change in your tone that you may have begun to taste the beauty of love."
Wang Jixuan shrugged: "Then you are indeed presumptuous. I am not in love yet."
The young man laughed inaudibly and asked the third question.
"Mr. Black Storm, can you clearly tell me that the things I did before have harmed other human beings? Because I have been following their orders before, so that I can live a slightly more comfortable life."
The young man's eyes were a little more helpless:
"If the information that I was amplified and sent out six times in total harmed human individuals, it would make me convinced that I am a selfish clone."
Wang Jixuan asked: "The last message you sent was for the blade beasts to retreat?"
"Yes."
The young man said softly: "The order given to me by Researcher Qin Qin is for the blade beast group to focus on attacking the main battlefield in the desert.
“This was decided after researcher Qin Qin discussed it with Uncle Feng.
"Researcher Qin Qin exchanged her body for Uncle Feng's help, hoping that Uncle Feng would take action at the critical moment and make her, the new minister of biology, the hero who saves the fortress, but Uncle Feng didn't want to take this risk.
"Uncle Feng said that the D5 war zone is close to getting out of control. This is the old devil's last struggle before his self-collapse. Lingtong is one of the potential successors, so it is best to take the opportunity to get rid of him.
"I judge that if I issue such an order to the blade beast group, it may make humans passive and cause a large number of human casualties. This is completely different from the previous few times when I participated in cooperating with the military and led the blade beast group into a trap.
"So I sent a message asking them to leave...Uncle Feng and Researcher Qin Qin actually couldn't tell what message I sent."
“Great job.”
Wang Jixuan smiled and said: "I don't know about the others, but the command you sent out recently was great, causing some chaos among the blade beasts. They did not fight to the end, and our defense line was not breached.
"You played a big role."
"That's good."
The young man smiled happily, then sighed and looked down at himself in the nutrition warehouse.
He asked: "The last question is...can you kill me?"
"Why?" Wang Jixuan asked, "Isn't it good to live?"
"I saw a sentence on a book page that was blown open by the wind, and it made me recognize it from the bottom of my heart. It went like this."
The boy's voice became slower:
“Human beings are creatures shaped by the past, and their consciousness originates from the accumulation of their own memories.
“My memory is not enough to support me in believing that tomorrow will be a little better, but I did not have any choice between life and death before.
"So, Mr. Storm...can you kill me quickly and directly?"
Wang Jixuan asked: "Why don't you try to look forward? You are still young now, and the pain of death... is very uncomfortable. It is endless silence... Please change your question. I can't reply to this question."
"That sir."
The young man's soul widened his eyes, cautiously and with a bit of trembling, and asked:
"Can I be called a human being?"
…
The glass door of the laboratory was opened.
Wang Jixuan walked out with a smile and walked to Qin Qin who was being held aside.
The three half-human mechas who were chatting looked over at the same time, and Zheng Shiduo and several psykers also looked here curiously.
Taoist Wang lowered his head and stared at Qin Qin, and suddenly kicked the wall next to Qin Qin, making an obvious hole.
"Witch! I won't kill you because I still need to interrogate you!"
Taoist Wang lowered his head and cursed, then turned and walked towards Lingtong.
Lingtong asked: "How's it going?"
"I've finished asking," Wang Jixuan simply said a few things to Lingtong.
Qin Qin and Uncle Feng's plan, they want to murder Lingtong;
The specific abilities of this young man;
And the existence of the S-class psyker [Beast Whisperer].
Wang Jixuan said: "When the investigation is completed later, can you show me the report? You don't need to show me the specific report. If what I said is completely consistent with Qin Qin's confession, you can give me a thumbs up." ”
Lingtong asked strangely: "Why?"
"I want to save this young man. His pure soul is particularly precious to me."
Taoist Wang clicked his tongue:
"Although the purity of the soul cannot be disguised, it is different from the eyes, but one learns from every experience... Saving him is just a piece of cake for me, I'll wait for you to investigate."
"Understood."
Lingtong breathed a sigh of relief, thought a little, and said softly:
"We still have some work to do. Let Brother Deep Sea send you back to rest."
"Okay, I just need to repair... take a breather."
Wang Jixuan waved his hand and walked away with an extremely relaxed pace.
The half-human mecha Shenhai who ran up behind took the initiative to hook up with each other and began to have a good relationship with this cool helmeted man.
The corridor seemed to be echoing the words Wang Jixuan left behind in the young man's soul just now.
In the nutrient bin in the corner of the laboratory.
A tear fell from the corner of the unconscious boy's eyes, and the corners of his mouth pursed slightly.
…
"Of course you are a human being. I don't know whether to clone or not, but there is no doubt that your soul is complete, your personality is sound, and you are a complete human being.
"I have recently realized a truth that I can share with you. It is very simple, but this is my personal experience. It is...
"It's great to be alive."
