imperfections

"I didn't faint, which means that I can bear the pain better than the average person," Lin Jingheng said, "It's not bad."

As soon as he finished speaking, a probe was slowly turned out of Ling Lingyi's head, and then inserted into the spinal cord.Lin Jingheng stretched out his hand to wipe it, and turned over a layer of film on the sealed glass plate above his head. The glass turned into a reflective mirror, turned at an angle, so that Ling Lingyi could just see his face clearly.

A surgical instrument the size of a small beetle climbed onto his body. At first glance, it looked like a child's simulated toy. If you can ignore the scalpels, drills and small chainsaws wielded by its front paws, it can be called naive.

The one-eyed eagle who was watching from the wall raised his eyelids: "Hey, there are not many microsurgical instruments."

"I know," Lin Jingheng said, "This is not for human use, it is my collection."

The "little beetle" crawled onto Zero Zero One's face, fixed his eyelids without hurting his eyeballs at all, so that he could not blink, the front paws were sutured, and the back paws stopped the bleeding, quite neatly, and then it continued Climbing up a little bit, a "buzzing" sound like a chainsaw sounded, a bloodstain spread from Ling Lingyi's forehead, and was quickly solidified by the hemostatic gel, and then, fine bone powder sprayed out like dandruff, "Little Beetle" sawed open his skull.

This scene was so exciting, Ling Lingyi rolled his eyes, and was about to faint on the spot, but the two probes inserted in the center blocked the autonomic response in time, and immediately after that, all the muscles in his whole body couldn't be controlled. , even the screams could only be a weak hum, and the entire torture process strictly followed Admiral Lin's aesthetics - efficient and quiet, until the "little beetle" miraculously lifted Ling Lingyi's skull, revealing Fresh brains inside.

"The method used by star pirates to torture captives," the one-eyed eagle said in amazement, "I heard that this set of procedures was invented by Prince Gloria, and it became very popular. It is one of the classic torture methods used by pirates. It also has a name... "

Lin Jingheng: "Eat monkey brains raw."

"Pervert," One-Eyed Eagle shook his head, "Ulan Academy still has talents like you."

The so-called "pain to death", "scared to death" and "tortured to death" are usually overstimulated, causing neurogenic shock, and then dying in hypotension and myocardial depression, and this level of pain that can cause shock, It is generally the limit of the person's tolerance.

Using technical means to block this process means that this person will suffer strong stimulation far beyond his tolerance limit.

Unable to control his muscles, his eyelids were fixed, and he could only watch and endure the endless loss of control.

Then, his brain will be connected to special sensors, and the interrogator will repeatedly ask questions about the content he wants to interrogate. The answer you want, or get tired of playing, and give death mercifully.

The whole process was bloodless, and the scene was very civilized, except that the streaking brain was a little unsightly.

Zero Zero One, as a star thief, obviously understands this set of things very well. Realizing what is about to happen, his eyes that are forced to open are filled with indescribable horror.

Lin Jingheng smiled: "It seems that you understand it very well."

As he said that, he stood up, but maybe it was the pain in the back wound, or maybe it was the sequelae of excessive blood loss. After touching some program, a probe on Ling Lingyi's body became looser—he quickly felt the numbness in his body fade away, and even his screams became much louder.

Ling Lingyi didn't care about anything, and yelled out with his tongue out: "Wow...so...say, everything...uh...say, you...you..."

Lin Jingheng turned a deaf ear, as if planning to reinsert the probe.

Ling Lingyi was about to go crazy, screaming loudly, shouting with tears, begging the other party to give him a chance to confess inarticulately.

The one-eyed eagle interrupted at the right time: "You have the right to speak even when you are about to die. It won't delay you if you listen to a few words. Let me ask."

Lin Jingheng looked down at Zero Zero One, showing a creepy smile, and stretched out his hand to the one-eyed eagle: "Please, Brother Lu."

The one-eyed eagle stepped forward and squatted down on his knees: "What's your real name?"

"Well... no real name," Ling Lingyi was gradually able to control his tongue, and glanced at the mirror one by one, wanting to look but didn't dare to look carefully, his breathing was short and short, as if out of breath, he stammered Said: "None of us has a name, and we have been growing up by number since we were young."

"Oh, I grew up outside the territory," the one-eyed eagle nodded. "The Star Bandit has many forces. Which one do you belong to? Isn't it Prince Gloria's guard?"

"No, no," Zero Zero One quickly denied, "I belong to the 'Freedom Legion'."

The one-eyed eagle glanced at Lin Jingheng.

Lin Jingheng: "Don't look at me, although I occasionally deal with star robbers, I don't know everything about cats and dogs."

"Yes, yes, because we have been outside the domain and are very cautious. We have never set foot on the territory of the alliance these years. It is Prince Gloria who likes to make trouble. Prince Gloria has always felt that the eight galaxies are his private property. Hey, it was Eight Galaxy who betrayed him back then, that is a psychopath full of revenge against society, pervert!" Ling Lingyi was afraid that he would not finish explaining within the allotted time, so he spoke so fast that he almost took off, sounding a bit vague.

The one-eyed eagle asked again: "Then tell me, how many forces are there in the invading interstellar pirates?"

"Probably, just three groups," Ling Lingyi said, "The group that directly attacked the Silver Fortress should be from the 'Glorious Group'. Most of the small groups that escaped outside the territory could not survive at first, and later joined this organization. , They have been recruiting troops, plotting to replace the alliance, and build a... what a glorious empire. In addition to the glorious regiment, there is also a group of people who are also very powerful and very dangerous. As far as I know, they call themselves the 'Dystopian Association'. "

The corner of Lin Jingheng's eyes twitched: "The Anti-University Society? The Anti-University Society is still there?"

The organization "Dystopia Association" originated at the end of the Earth Age. At the beginning, it was the same as NGOs such as "Protection of Animals" and "Protection of Water Sources". Blade Sword calls on people to return to nature properly and not to be hijacked by increasingly powerful technology.

As we all know, literary youth is a kind of safe and pollution-free creature, civilized and law-abiding, at most scolding the street when in a hurry, will not kill people and set fire casually, and left behind many precious literary works. Back then, most of the cultural and entertainment circles had "anti-Ukraine" tendency.However, as humans flew into space and entered the era of ephemeris, things began to be different.Gradually, this salon for cultural people has changed its taste and began to be occupied by anti-tech extremists.

Bad money drives out good money, and the voice of a madman always seems to be heard more easily.

In the year 192 of the old star calendar, the Dystopia Association was officially designated as a "cult organization" by the government. Since then, it has become more degenerate and has become a social cancer.

From the old ephemeris era to the new ephemeris era, the Anti-Ukraine Society has left a bloodstained silhouette in history, and it was not until the alliance unified the eight galaxies that they were completely wiped out.

Unexpectedly, the centipede is dead but not stiff. This terrifying ghost has been hiding outside the territory, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

"Yes! It's them who oppose artificial intelligence, the Garden of Eden, and all modern technology. They also believe that space roaming and space exploration should be banned for non-essential situations, and people should live on the ground like monkeys. Isn't it particularly sick? After Prince Gloria fled from the eighth galaxy, he joined this organization!" Ling Lingyi said, showing a flattering smile, "The remaining one is us, we... Our Freedom Legion is of course much more peaceful. Now the main force is still outside the territory and has not been involved at all. Armed conflicts will bleed blood, right? No matter who has any political opinions, ordinary people are always innocent. I was ordered to invite you here at that time, and it was also with the sincerity of cooperation. Everyone wants to have a good time..."

Lin Jingheng played with the personal terminal: "I'm sorry, you didn't let your own people go, and even the enemy and the friend, and the behavior of blowing up the entire space station, doesn't seem like a 'living life'."

The one-eyed eagle's face darkened, and he kicked Lingling's lower leg: "Do you think everyone else is stupid?"

"No, no, no," Zero Zero One said hastily, "Misunderstanding! We have confidentiality regulations, the ongoing experiments, and the 'opium' project cannot be revealed for the time being, otherwise the organization will not spare me... But it just so happens that Fourth brother, you have great powers. You happened to seize an opium from us at that time, which made us very nervous. We thought... thought you were a bad person, and seemed to know something. The situation was so chaotic at that time. A directly broke into our confidential laboratory, I was frightened..."

The one-eyed eagle interrupted him: "What is the Opium Project?"

Zero Zero One hesitated for a moment.

The one-eyed eagle said blankly: "It seems that he doesn't want to talk anymore, the mouth is still not as reliable as the brain, it's better..."

Zero Zero One was originally a tough guy, but the process of "eating monkey brains raw" was too cruel. Seeing that Lin Jingheng was going to reinsert the probe on him, he was scared and cried on the spot, and called out all the names of male elders he knew. After a pass, he burst into tears: "Let me talk about it—the Opium Project... Brother Lin must have already guessed that the chip you got from the spider is called 'Opium'. It is so strong that the human body feels infinitely powerful, and the chip can also partially simulate Eden-like functions, can camouflage, and can shield...Of course, the chip itself is a little addictive, and there is a slight backlash after taking it off."

The one-eyed eagle's fist clenched suddenly.

"It looks like a chaotic world, and everyone has to protect themselves, but it is too difficult for ordinary people to survive. Most people's physical fitness can't even fly out of the atmosphere." After revealing his status as a captive, he spit and said, "We just want to take this opportunity to put a batch of mature chips on the market, so that more people can control their own destiny by strengthening their bodies..."

The one-eyed eagle interrupted him coldly: "Is it to lure more people to become addicted to your chips, upgrade bit by bit, and finally become a monster like the one in the laboratory ring? Very good, I think anti-government and cults are both Without you drug dealers, they have worked so hard to fight the country, and if they are not paying attention, the effective combat power of their subordinates will be controlled by you."

Lin Jingheng asked: "Where are the Glory Group and the Anti-Ukraine Association currently active?"

"I heard that the Glorious Regiment has occupied Votto, intends to declare a provisional government, and plans to work hard with the Alliance for a few years," Ling Lingyi said, "The Anti-Ukrainian Society should just take advantage of the fire, the Silver Fortress is lost, and the Capital Star is too busy to take care of itself. Regardless of the other galaxies, of course, there is resentment for grievances, revenge for revenge. Now that the galaxy is in a mess, the outside world is quiet. I can lead you to the headquarters of the Freedom Legion. We most welcome..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Jingheng stood up, walked through the disinfection spray wall of the glass door, turned around and left, and took back the nerve probe and the "little beetle" specially used for craniotomy.

Ling Lingyi breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had escaped a catastrophe, and smiled at the one-eyed eagle embarrassingly: "Mr. Lu, right? Can you...can you find something first, and put my head..."

Cyclops: "Put your skull back on?"

Zero Zero One looked at him expectantly.

"So what's the trouble?" The one-eyed eagle smiled, showing a row of fangs under the hooked nose. He pointed to his mandarin eyes, "Did you see these eyes? In 136, he followed General Lu Xin to clean up the star robbers in the eighth galaxy. I was blind at the time, I swore at that time that the star robbers who fell into my hands would die without a whole body."

Ten minutes later, Ling Lingyi didn't even have a single hair left, and the stump was wrapped in the excrement disposal bag of the mecha, and flew into the universe.

Cyclops disinfected the entire medical room, washed his hands, and walked out in a leisurely manner.Lin Jingheng was at the door of the training room on the second floor, leaning on the railing of the stairs, watching the students howling and performing weightlessness adaptation training.Hearing the footsteps of the one-eyed eagle going upstairs, he tilted his head: "How do you know that I don't have a brain-reading sensor, just cheating him?"

The one-eyed eagle paused, and stepped on the steps of the stairs with his legs up and down. For a moment, he looked at Lin Jingheng with very complicated eyes, almost deep.

However, after only a second of silence, the old Persian cat sneered, "Your little skill, haha."

He let out a "hehe", and the murderous interrogation team, which had been working in tacit understanding just now, quickly fought among themselves, and a new round of war started.

Lin Jingheng nodded, and said humbly: "Indeed, things like breaking into a midnight show with a gun and picking off people's pants are too inhumane, and they can't be elegant. Brother Lu laughed."

The one-eyed eagle responded with embarrassment and anger: "Lin Gou, I'll fuck you..."

The half-hidden door of the training room was opened from the inside, and Lu Bixing knocked on the door frame: "It's such a big place in the mech, why are you two arguing here? There are still minors in the room, old man, if you don't swear, you won't Open your mouth, right? Pay attention to your quality!"

Then he turned to Lin Jingheng, his voice immediately lowered by an octave, and he sighed almost gently: "Oh, he is like this. He is over 200 years old, and he probably won't be able to change it. Don't mind it."

One-eyed Eagle: "..."

Who is over 200 years old?Who allowed you to round up!

"It's okay." Lin Jingheng said reasonably, "We are going to jump in 10 minutes and go to the outside world. I suggest you take a rest now. Since this is not an emergency jump, the mecha will not be filled with protective gas. And you'd better not use medicine. To avoid dependence after getting used to it, there is oral glucose in the storage room, and those who are not in good health can supplement it."

After a pause, he added another sentence to the students: "Don't be afraid, you will get used to it in the future."

The one-eyed eagle was prepared to be full of anger, but before he could vent it, he heard such a long-winded exhortation from Lin Jingheng. He forgot the words on the spot and stood there dumbfounded.

In the countdown sound of the mechanical sound, the mech disappeared in place, facing the eight galaxies raging with war, heading for the transition point of the underground channel that was not on the map, hiding in the vast darkness, and sailing to an unknown direction outside the domain.

The alliance has been established for more than 200 years, and the gap between the rich and the poor has continued to increase. The hypocritical politicians have been hypocritical and intriguing, and the Garden of Eden is like a large lie, which has rotted into the bones of the docile people.

But a false peace is peace, and most people survive even if they are stupid.

Until the missiles of the interstellar pirates shattered the silent night sky and hung everyone's fate on their hair——
