Perhaps the virtual work area came with some animation effects. Under the illumination of the lights, the sketch of the parasitic mutant blended together with the fuzzy human frame. Its collecting tentacles replaced the positions of blood vessels and nerves, but they were unwilling to stay in their positions. They stretched out of the human frame and seemed to stretch out of the work area. They danced in the void.
Luo Nan looked at his own work. He looked at those greedy and restless tentacles.
He felt that there was something strange in his heart. It was like these tentacles were struggling and dancing. He was not unfamiliar with such a vague and bizarre feeling. It was just like when he used himself as an experiment earlier …. Yes, he seemed to have taken drugs.
Luo Nan had a bit of an idea as to why such a situation would occur. At this very moment, the irritable flames from the Bloodsoul Temple of the Abyss District were still relentlessly invading him. The fuel of that flame was the extreme negative emotions of tens of thousands of people. He touched that environment and was affected by it. It was a bit like he was being assimilated.
Fortunately, the situation was still under control.
Luo Nan's thoughts were still very clear. His communication with He Yueyin wasn't affected. He pointed at the sketch and introduced the situation he knew. "According to my observations, every time a third stage mutant is added, it means that it can collect a bit more samples. It's hard to grasp how much is needed in order to satisfy it. After all, there are requirements for type and quantity. And the chemical composition produced by each infected person will overlap …. "
"Overlap?" He Yueyin immediately grasped the key word.
Luo Nan could only blink his eyes. If he told her about his arrangements two thousand kilometers away, then he would be a bit too careless.
Fortunately, He Yueyin never forced him to do anything. She turned her gaze to the chaotic dance of demons on the rooftop outside. "There are twenty-two over here. That's twenty-two seeds."
"Yeah. It should be very easy for them to blossom and bear fruit after being stimulated." Luo Nan responded without thinking. He discovered that He Yueyin's words didn't sound like an analysis, but more like an emotional sigh.
That was right. He Yueyin had never faced the twenty-two small shrimps at the Grand Banquet. She faced the tens of thousands of potential infected people that were impossible to control with normal thinking. This number was far too excessive for anyone who maintained order.
Luo Nan could feel the pressure He Yueyin's heart at this moment. But then again, how did this become her responsibility? The military, the government …. Oh, those people were still in the dark.
Luo Nan suddenly understood. He Yueyin had concealed the information of ten thousand potential infected people. In the end, she had shouldered a great deal of responsibility.
But if that wasn't the case, how could the people from Quantum Corporation so easily jump out? Now that the situation was clear, why should he continue to bear the burden?
Thinking to this point, Luo Nan blurted out: "Sister Yueyin, we can talk about this matter now."
"Hmm?" He Yueyin was startled, but with her intelligence, she quickly understood what was going on. She laughed involuntarily, "I know, but we can still suppress it for now. Tens of thousands of people will crush some swingers. "
"I already said he's a swingman … …" Luo Nan mumbled to himself. But he was really just saying it. After all, he was a standard dreg on the political level.
"There's no need to think too much about it. Everyone specializes in different fields, so their methods are different as well. Just leave these matters to us. Mr. Luo, you just have to inform us of the changes in time. This matter belongs to you. I'm afraid that the following period of time will be very tiring. We have to be prepared. "
"Mm. Don't worry, Sister Yueyin."
He Yueyin smiled faintly. She let out a light breath as the cool air blew over. The night wind ruffled her hair and made her squint her eyes. She looked like she was enjoying it very much.
This was probably the most standard example of "taking a break from the busy".
Luo Nan knew that He Yueyin was certainly working around the clock during the middle of the night. There were endless matters waiting for her. Putting himself in He Yueyin's shoes, he felt a chill run down his spine … … If he were to stand in He Yueyin's position, he would most likely go crazy.
Perhaps it would be admiration, sympathy, or even pity. Luo Nan suddenly wanted to help He Yueyin ease a bit. Let's not talk about the specifics of the solution. Right now, it was good to be able to chat and relax.
Yep, there was also him. He had been scorched by the intrusive raging flames. His mind was quite vexed. He didn't want to ponder over matters anymore. He just wanted to rest for a bit.
Luo Nan waved his hand to extinguish the work area with this thought in mind. He leaned sideways against the balcony railing and adopted the posture of having a chat. But his emotions surged forth, and he was a bit dumbfounded. What should he talk about?
The wristband on his wrist vibrated at this time. First, the watch with the garbled code lit up. It projected light under the control of a predetermined program, forming a three-dimensional region of all sorts of intertwined garbled codes in the space of an inch around his wrist. Then the garbled codes began to form an orderly puzzle. A portion of it formed a simple human silhouette, and the surrounding area was this person's name … … It was a character that he had no impression of at all.
The garbled codes rearranged themselves during this baffling time to form a complete leaderboard. The first person at the top was the fellow who had just been revealed by the garbled codes. Next to his name was an item called "Number of Missions Completed". The number marked on it was 5.
According to Luo Nan's understanding of the Grand Banquet, he was able to guess the reason why this brother was on the leaderboard: He had already caught five prey and branded them with a "tattoo". Should he praise his superb skills for this kind of achievement, or should he use the phrase "Quick Shooter" to summarize it?
In any case, the appearance of the Hunt Leaderboard caused the atmosphere on the rooftop to become even more fervent. The scene became even more … … uh huh, restless.
Luo Nan turned his head halfway and swept a few glances towards the rooftop. He couldn't help but curl his lips and say: "This group of people are really having fun. But they're good. They don't have to worry about anything, and they still need us to wipe their ass when they cause trouble. "
"There are still four people on the rooftop … … They're definitely not having fun anymore." He Yueyin was referring to the seeded players. It was impossible to allow this group of people to continue messing around, no matter how one looked at it.
Luo Nan had already noticed a few ability users approaching without batting an eyelid as they spoke. They clearly wanted to completely control the remaining few. As for what sort of treatment they would enjoy after this, only the heavens knew.
Luo Nan was amused when he saw this, but he soon came to a realization: Sister Yueyin, you're trying to persuade me. I originally wanted to console you … …
Luo Nan didn't have time to say these words before he heard He Yueyin say: "Are there any other harvesters besides Li Yiwei?"
"Well, I'm really not too sure about this." Luo Nan was able to find Li Yiwei and the medical worker two thousand kilometers away. Luck more or less played a role in this. He still needed to further research and ponder the principles of the Knight Level Basic Internal Colonization Biochemical Reactor Furnace's production, operation, and hiding of the parasites.
"The probability of it being a female might be a bit higher? After all, the size of the parasite isn't small. It's easier to be exposed if it's a male. Speaking of which, Li Yiwei's understanding of the parasite is quite subtle. Right now her consciousness has yet to recover. I've already asked Mr. Bai to come over and use the dream technique to try and dig out some information. "
"Li Yiwei is certainly someone who knows, but she's someone who doesn't know everything. She certainly doesn't know that the parasite monster possesses a self-destruct mechanism. At the very least, she doesn't know what the self-destruct condition is … … "
Luo Nan suddenly laughed in spite of himself as he spoke. Then he couldn't help burying his face into his elbow: "Sister Yueyin, I'm afraid there's nothing else for the two of us to talk about besides serious matters."
He Yueyin looked over in astonishment, then she pursed her lips into a smile. She took a step forward and used her elbow to support herself on the railing. She stood shoulder to shoulder with Luo Nan. She squinted her eyes as she welcomed the cool breeze: "So you want to talk, huh. What do you want to talk about?"
Are you trying to coax me?
In the end, it was rare for Luo Nan to see He Yueyin in such a lively manner, so he decided to forgive her.
Luo Nan hadn't truly thought of a good topic up until now. His meager life experience and taste were simply incapable of supporting a 'pure leisure' style of chatting.
In stark contrast to him, the group of people on the rooftop were playing to their heart's content. These people could play, knew how to play, and dared to play.
Even the old-fashioned Kiss Cam was full of tricks. When a strong light beam shone on a designated group of people, it was hard to say what sort of eye-piercing scene would appear.
Luo Nan's eyelids twitched as he watched. He slipped out a sentence: "Let's talk. Let's talk about these people. It's like I said just now. They're really having a good time. "
His gaze wandered across the rooftop. Actually, he didn't need his eyes. He could sense the wanton and unrestrained emotions and desires of this group of people purely through his senses. This even included the passive participants such as the models. Under the turbid flow of alcohol and drugs, all of their thoughts and burdens were drowned out. At the very least, he couldn't see any traces of them for the time being.
"Is this considered being carefree and without worries?"
"Living a befuddled life is more appropriate."
"That's right." Luo Nan subconsciously sighed.
"Mr. Luo is envious."
"Huh?"
He Yueyin turned around to look at him: "I feel that Mr. Luo doesn't care about the enjoyment and treatment of these people. You only care about their relaxed and free state … … Why can they live a befuddled life, while we have to face the cold wind and discuss these urgent and boring matters of life and death? Could it be that this isn't envy? "
"...... No, I'm not envious."
Luo Nan stared blankly for a few seconds before denying He Yueyin's judgment. He unconsciously moved his fingers. It seemed that he wanted to draw a diagram in the void to guide his thoughts. But in the end, nothing took shape. So he could only say whatever came to his mind:
"I can only say that I'm curious. You know that I took drugs to alter my nervous system. Right now I'm not sensitive to alcohol, drugs, and so on. So I don't really understand this state. Can the pressure and burdens of a person's heart really be forgotten through this sort of method? Yep. Actually, I know the theory behind it. But emotions and desires really aren't things that can be controlled by rational thought. They have to be burned for a bit … … Crap. I'm talking too messily. "
"I understand."
He Yueyin also went to look at the scene of demons dancing chaotically on the rooftop. Her tone was completely different from Luo Nan's: "Mr. Luo, it's true that your words are incoherent, but your emotions are very clear. Sometimes, a simple transmission of emotions is enough for a human interaction. "
Luo Nan blinked: "What emotions?"
He Yueyin no longer spoke. She just maintained her smile.
This time it was Luo Nan's turn to understand. He laughed bitterly: "Or is it envy? No, that's not right! "
Then he used an even more frank and harsh attitude to define himself: "It's not envy. It's envy!"
