Max was just an ordinary person. Soon, all of his memories were taken away.
In these few seconds, the teenagers stepped on the lava and rushed up, attacking Bai Ge fearlessly.
Bai Ge transferred the memories while trapping the teenagers with magnetic weapons.
The magnetic weapons formed a cage and plunged deep into the ground.
Then, they connected with each other underground. Finally, all six sides were locked and suspended in mid-air.
The teenagers were crowded in the cage. They were weak and couldn't get out at all. They could only hang in the cage like little chicks.
Bai Ge obtained Max's memories and asked Ling Dang to sift through the information.
From Max's memories, he finally knew the price of the Backlash Brand.
The price was lifespan. However, from the moment of the brand, the lifespan was shortened by seven times.
"I see … It's directly calculated from the highest lifespan in the unseen world."
Bai Ge suddenly understood why it could only be teenagers who were so young. Some were even 13 years old.
It was because the brand couldn't be used on older people.
Suppose a person's lifespan was 80 years. After being branded, his lifespan would be reduced to 11 and a half years.
Then, as long as this person's current age was older than his lifespan, he would definitely die at the moment of the brand!
The only way to become a Backlash Victim was to find someone who had a very long lifespan and was still alive after their lifespan was shortened by seven times.
Thinking about it carefully, it was almost impossible to find a Backlash Victim over the age of 20 on Earth.
If a person was still a Backlash Victim at the age of 20, then his lifespan before being branded was over 140 years old.
Jie Rui was supposed to be a long-lived person. He was 16 years old this year. Even if he died tomorrow, his lifespan before being branded should be 122 years old.
"These teenagers all have very long lifespans. Otherwise, they wouldn't be Backlash Victims at all."
After shortening their lifespan and reducing their current age, the remaining time was the time they could maintain the Backlash Victim state …
During this time, the Backlash Victim would never be able to get out of this state. There was no upper limit to the damage they could endure, at least no upper limit had been measured.
Furthermore, the Backlash Victim couldn't even commit suicide because the effect could always find a target for revenge.
If a person hurt himself, there would always be some external factor. The Backlash Effect would find this external factor and feed back the damage.
For example, Jie Rui was very sad and stabbed himself with a knife. Then what made him sad was that his friend Tom was dead, and dead people don't get feedback. So what was the cause of Tom's death? He had reached the end of his lifespan. Why did his lifespan come to an end? It was because of the misuse of the Mark of the Wounded. Then who gave him this brand? It was a member of the foundation who was in charge of this anomaly.
Therefore, it was very likely that the person who was hit by the projectile would accidentally kill someone who was thousands of miles away.
Of course, this was just an example. Because in the chain of causality, there would definitely be a human factor with a higher position. The one who received the feedback would only be the closest one.
Max had warned Jie Rui and the others not to hurt him because he had asked Jie Rui and the others to stay in the house. If Jie Rui and the others hurt him, he might have to bear the consequences.
There was nothing more about the foundation in his memory. Max was just a pawn.
As for these youths …
Looking at the trapped Jie Rui and the others, Bai Ge didn't dare to extract their memories. After all, his [Memory Transfer] was completely different from the Shredder's [Memory Deletion], so he might be hurt by the backlash.
[Memory Transfer] would transfer a year's worth of memories every second. If it was magnified seven times, he might lose seven years' worth of memories.
That would be too hurtful, and Bai Ge didn't want to take that risk.
"Ling Dang, can you send them into the brain hole? Are there any risks? "Bai Ge asked.
He didn't pull them into the brain hole for a long time because he didn't want to try it so easily. He wanted to use other methods to obtain as much information as possible.
Ling Dang could obviously think much more than Bai Ge. She answered: "There are risks, Ruler"
"What are the risks?" Bai Ge asked.
"Entering the brain hole can be understood as a downgrade across a boundary. This isn't a transmigration between equal worlds, but an indescribable difference between dimensions. If this action of being pulled down to a lower dimension is judged to be hurtful, you might be pulled down to an even lower dimension … You can imagine what it's like to be seven lower dimensions," Ling Dang said.
Bai Ge pondered. The difference between the brain hole and reality was already huge.
And in a place even lower than the brain hole, Bai Ge's gaze could probably destroy countless universes.
Seven lower dimensions … Bai Ge suspected that his mere existence would cause the entire boundary to collapse. Concepts and matter, both metaphysical and physical, would all be directly erased by Bai Ge's "sense of existence".
For an Earthling who was seven times higher than the boundary, perhaps only emptiness and loneliness would be left in such a place …
It would be fine if he could return, but if he couldn't, he could only stay there for an infinite eternity … Even concepts could be erased, so wasn't that an infinite eternity?
"You'd better be clear about the standard definition of harm for this effect," Ling Dang said.
"Yes, let's leave this place first!"
The gunshots from before had alarmed this residential area, so it wasn't good to stay here for long.
Bai Ge injected Max with the memory of a surpasser and left him here to clean up the mess.
He then put away the molten lava, controlled the metal cage, and immediately left the sea with everyone.
In a few seconds, he released hundreds of tons of spiritual matter, forming an extremely small island.
A hole automatically opened in the island. The group jumped into it, and the hole automatically closed again.
Soon, the island sank into the sea like a submarine and disappeared without a trace.
…
In the middle of the island, the surpassers surrounded Jie Rui and the others who were trapped and kept analyzing.
"President, this effect is purely based on cause and effect."
"As long as there is a 'cause' that will harm the victim, regardless of whether the result is physical damage, magical damage, or psychological damage … this' effect 'will be magnified seven times and will appear on the nearest' cause 'in the chain. This effect won't be applied to a dead person or another victim. "
"At the same time, the standard of harm should be based on the physical and mental state of the victim at the moment of the imprint. There is probably a value in the unseen world. All actions that will interfere with, damage, or reduce the physical and mental state of the victim will be reflected away. The victim is immune to these consequences. "
"However, if it is to strengthen the physical and mental state of the victim, it is possible."
As Mi Xieer spoke, he cast a spell on Jie Rui at the same time. It was an inspirational spell with model "6,66."
For the time being, surpassers didn't have many spells. This was a spell that changed the psychological state of the target. The principle was to affect the secretion of certain hormones, and the victim would enter a state of extreme excitement.
In this state, the person would unleash potential that they couldn't normally use, and their strength and speed would increase by two times.
At the same time, psychologically … they would become extremely happy. However, sadness and anger could also be magnified. Everything existed in the heart.
Jie Rui's cold and dull expression became unusually happy and excited. It seemed to be a long-lost smile on his face.
It was as if every cell in his body was rejoicing, and the comfortable and carefree feeling made him extremely intoxicated.
It was as if he had never been so happy before.
A few minutes later, Mi Xieer canceled the spell.
Jie Rui still wanted more. He looked at Mi Xieer pitifully and finally took the initiative to speak for the first time since he was captured.
"Don't stop … please, I want more …"
Bai Ge was stunned. He tilted his head and asked, "Is this spell addictive?"
Mi Xieer shook his head and said, "No, it's probably because he lacks love. Maybe he has never experienced such happiness before."
Bai Ge took the opportunity to ask, "Jie Rui, how many people are there in the Foundation?"
Jie Rui immediately lowered his head. After a moment of silence, he continued to pound the cage like the other teenagers.
Bai Ge endured the pain and said to Mi Xieer, "Give them another spell. Make it more powerful."
Mi Xieer said, "No, it's too powerful. I might be killed."
After experimenting, if the basic structure of 66 was added at the end of the spell, the effect of the spell would increase.
In theory, as long as there was enough magic power, it could be stacked infinitely.
However, for some things, going too far was as bad as not going far enough. For ordinary people, this spell was enough.
If the power of the spell was stacked further, it would lead to excessive excitement and cause irreparable damage to the human body. The nerves and intelligence would be damaged.
In other words, the spell itself was a strengthening blessing, but if amplified … it would be an offensive curse!
Mi Xieer used a normal boosting spell to make Jie Rui enter a super high state again.
In this state, Jie Rui's temperament was completely different. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling.
Seeing that he was no longer tense, Bai Ge took the opportunity to say, "The price of the counterattack is to shorten the upper limit of the lifespan by seven times, right?"
This sentence seemed to touch him. Jie Rui's smile gradually disappeared, and the boosting effect magnified the sadness in his heart.
He thought of his dead companions again and said sadly, "I shouldn't have said …"
Bai Ge smiled and said, "There's nothing you shouldn't have said. I already know the price. That Tom died when he was only 15 years old, which means that his lifespan before he was branded should be 105 years old, right?"
"Yes …" Jie Rui said in a low voice.
Bai Ge said, "But who can see a person's lifespan in the dark? Could it be that the Foundation found a large number of teenagers and branded them one by one? Anyone who survives is a counterattack victim, right? "
Hearing this, Jie Rui even trembled, as if he recalled some bad memories.
Bai Ge frowned and said, "Is that really the case? But only one in a hundred people can live a long life. In the process of the experiment … how many people died? "
Faced with such a question, Jie Rui finally couldn't help but confide, "In the same batch as me … there were a total of 214 people. Only Tom and I survived."
Bai Ge was stunned. He thought of the densely packed red dots in Australia.
Even though he felt that he was ruthless enough for his own path, he couldn't help but feel that the Foundation was more terrifying.
Bai Ge said, "How far has the Foundation's influence penetrated? What is the Illuminati? Actually, you are all about to die, right? What can't you say? "
"I can't betray my mentor … Loyalty is my value," Jie Rui said.
Bai Ge frowned slightly. He had long felt that some of the Foundation's loyalty was strange.
Max was originally a coward, but as soon as he found out that it was the person behind the earpiece that wanted him dead, even though he felt sad, he still accepted his fate and was willing to die.
It was fine if it was only him, but since the Foundation was willing to let these youths carry out the mission, they must have trusted their loyalty. That was strange, where did their confidence come from?
In Max's memory, his loyalty was to an organization called the Illuminati, not the Foundation.
Could that be another name for the Foundation?
Bai Ge didn't hold back, "Mentor? Isn't that just brainwashing with anomalies … "
Jie Rui excitedly said, "We will never betray our mentor, we will never betray the Foundation!"
"Oh? Then let me ask you, what is your reason for being loyal to him? "Bai Ge asked.
Reason? Jie Rui was speechless. He was thinking …
But even after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of a reason …
"There's no reason? I understand now, it's powerful, but also inferior brainwashing … "Bai Ge said.
While making people loyal, they don't even know why they are loyal …
Bai Ge could roughly guess that it was an anomaly that directly implanted loyalty.
"Could it be a multiple-choice question?" Bai Ge recalled the information he saw in the database, and this name popped up in his mind.
Jie Rui was extremely excited, he instinctively wanted to protect his organization.
But even if he wanted to say it, he didn't know how to. His memories were filled with things that went against his instincts, but now that he thought about it … his happiest moment … was actually right now.
Bai Ge turned his head and asked, "Mi Xieer, why are you loyal to the Blue and White Society?"
"For the glory and ideals of the Blue and White Society, the goal of the Blue and White Society is something that we want to fight for for our entire lives, a cause that we are willing to sacrifice everything for!" Mi Xieer and the others roared from the bottom of their hearts.
Their emotions were as if they had been given a '666' pep talk, they were extremely excited.
The Surpassers of the Blue and White Society had such thoughts from the bottom of their hearts.
Although their memories were created, they were still incomparably real, and even had a prototype. The Surpassers were no different from those who truly thought this way. They had no other ideals, and the Blue and White Society was their only pursuit.
The Surpassers were even more eager than Bai Ge himself for the day when the Blue and White Society would be glorious. When the glory spread throughout the world, they would be proud of it.
"Ideals?"
Jie Rui, who had been given a pep talk, was almost emotionally affected.
But then he realized that this was someone else's organization.
