last post apocalypse

Next to the three huge buildings, there is a building called a research institute.

It was a two-story square reinforced concrete building, which was much smaller than the three cultivation facilities. It was hard to imagine that it was the core of the research institution.

There was a retina recognition device in front of the door, but Suzuko ignored it and pressed the button on the side instead.

Said into the microphone.

"I'm Lily of the Bell family, and I'm here with guests."

"Understood, please go to the right panel to confirm your identity."

A synthesized female voice came out, and then the wall next to the retina recognition device split open automatically, and three transparent plates protruded.

It is about fifteen centimeters long and wide. Just put your palm on it, and you can read fingerprints, veins, bioelectrical signal patterns, etc. This is the unique ID identification device of the Administration of Capable Persons, but the only area where it is really popular is Academy City. .

"Please come in."

There was a light rattle, and the door slowly slid open, like an ancient western-style building.

Kamijou, who followed Suzuko and walked side by side with Shokuhou Misaki, stepped into this legendary institute where the first person to develop artificial abilities was nervous and somewhat curious.

The inside is not big, but clean and tidy.

However, it is more like a huge computer room than a research institute.

Rows of high-speed computing servers are arranged in the huge hall like the bookshelves of the library.There are only a dozen or so researchers, who are watching dozens of screens and don't know what they are doing.

As soon as Ling Ke came in, everyone focused their attention on her.

The reason is also very simple. After all, the meaning of the existence of this research institute is to serve the lily of the bell family.

"You're back, Accelerator. Also, are these two the friends you brought?"

A tall man came out from behind the crowd.

"I'm Kihara Kagun, the person in charge of Accelerator at this stage."

Chapter 48. As soon as I came, I saw a party chasing Kihara to fight

"Although this is the most secret research institute in Academy City, it is not open to the public in principle... However, you are still welcome to come to Teliyan, control it in your heart, and imagine the Gospel."

Kihara Kagun, the sullen man turned his gaze to Kamijou and Shokuhou.

Then it was transferred to Suzuko.

"Actually, I am opposed to the proposal of opening the research center to you during this visit. The original plan was to only open the test field to you, so that you can be lured to fight inside, and then collect experimental data by the way. But now, this plan is bankrupt Yes, because Kihara Gensei agreed to your request to visit the research center."

If the plan fails, do you just tell the conspiracy outright?

Suzuko's eyelids twitched.

"Then why is it open again?"

"Because Kihara Huansheng feels that when you get along with friends, your mood will be much more stable. So, he wants to collect data on your body by the way, to see what kind of secretion is the effect... .”

Ah, it turns out that guy is plotting something wrong...

Shokuhou and Kamijou's eyes twitched.

"So, remember to wear this for a while."

As Kihara Kagun spoke, he took out an earphone from behind, no, it should be an earphone-shaped detection device.

"After hearing your news yesterday, I hurriedly made a special instrument. It detects heartbeat, bioelectricity, sweat... It is mainly used to detect secretions in the brain. In order to make you feel comfortable, Special selection of your favorite brand..."

"Well, I'm used to it anyway... Hey, wait, why did this headset even imitate my signature handwriting? It's amazing!"

"No, this is the earphone in your room, because I can't find this brand of product on Amazon, so I took everything out of it and put it in... Hey, don't pinch your fingers come over!!!"

"Go to hell, bastard! This is out of print!!!!"

Kamijou and Shokuhou watched Suzuna chase after Kihara Kaqun with black lines on their faces.

"Shokuhou, I think Suzuko's superpowers often get out of control, not just because of her."

"...Ah, she has worked really hard in the past few years when I was away."

Shokuhou Misaki nodded in agreement.

The guys in this institute are poisonous.

Kihara Kagun came back with a limp, and his survival was entirely due to the mercy of Suzuko's subordinates.

"Next, let me take you on a tour. Do you want to experience a full-body test in a while? You only need to collect some body fluids, blood, hair, skin, subcutaneous tissue, internal organ tissue and the like."

"No, forget it."

Kamijou and Shokuhou shook their heads together

--------

There is nothing to say about the first floor of the research institute. It is basically a place for quantum computers and a large number of computing nodes.

The second and third floors of the institute are the key.

Lingke usually conducts physical examinations, ability development and other equipment, all here.

But in Kamijou's eyes, it's all about 'I don't understand, but it looks amazing'.

For example, Kihara Kagun showed off an instrument that can detect changes in endocrine in the past month just by blowing a breath.There is also the instrument that can modify genes like 3D printing.

Although he still had a sullen face, his tone was as if he was introducing his outstanding son.

"Speaking of which, Shokuhou is fine as long as you come in. Is it really okay to let me, an A-level ability user whose power affiliation is unknown, come to visit these places?"

"Of course there is no problem. No matter how advanced these instruments are, they are only technologically advanced. Among other things, the equipment of the Valkyrie Academy over the anti-entropy is not much worse than here. To put it simply, although these are all seemingly Very high-tech stuff is not uncommon, and high-tech has little to do with mass production."

Shokuhou Misaki glanced at Kamijou, pointed to the surrounding instruments, and said in a low voice.

"And, actually, haven't you noticed? The things he introduced are basically 'high-tech'. It really involves the core 'development of ability users', and there is no word about 'one-way traffic-related experiments'."

Academy City can fight against anti-entropy, and one of the most important means is artificial abilities, and a series of "black technologies" derived from artificial abilities.

"I see......"

"And it doesn't stop, haven't you noticed? The cameras around have been following our pace. Do you think this is surveillance?"

Suzuko quietly patted Kamijou's arm.

explained in a low voice.

"That's a professional testing device. Although it's not as good as the one on my neck, except for data such as DNA that requires tissue samples, the information it can collect is not much different from a full physical examination." It’s different. Even whether your place is good or bad, and when it will fail, can be calculated through detection.”

"!!!"

Kamijou's legs tightened.

So, so scary!

So it turns out that people with artificial abilities have been living like this?

At this time, Kamijou's shoulder was covered by a big hand.

"Don't worry about the boy, I will send you the detected data. However, I would like to advise you a little bit, go to bed early at night, and don't read weird cartoons..."

"Mr. Kamijou stayed up all night studying!!!"

"Don't be so nervous, I was once a young man, I understand."

"You know a hammer!"

Kamijou also wanted to chase after Kihara.

"Okay, the testing equipment here has been visited, and your body data is almost collected. Next, let's go to the artificial ability user development center to have a look."

kindness?

Leaving aside what is going on with 'privately collecting our body data', is the development of artificial abilities open to me, an outsider?

"Don't worry, we won't put the real core things outside. Moreover, if Fantasy Gospel wants to try to develop superpowers, we also welcome... Want to try to join us? The treatment is generous and there is a rise The space, the colleagues are very kind, the contract is signed once every three years, and you are guaranteed to have peace of mind. If you think the price is not suitable, you can also negotiate it.”

"No, no need."

Is this the legendary recruitment? Mr. Kamijou is still a middle school student!

Kihara Kagun was not disappointed either.

Came to the Artificial Abilities Development Center.

It should be that there are fewer large instruments, or there is a problem with the layout. It can be clearly felt that this space is much wider than the testing room just now.

Maybe it was Kamijou's illusion, but he always felt a little familiar in the surrounding environment.

At this time, Teresa's voice sounded in her head.

"Kamijou, there's an aura of Houkai energy here..."

Chapter 49, Murphy's Law is that bad things will happen

I don't know if space technology was used, but Kamijou always felt that the space on this floor was much larger than that downstairs.

The research and development room for artificial abilities, let's just call it that.

However, why would there be a Houkai reaction to the artificial ability user?

"The basic principle of artificial abilities is actually not that complicated. In short, it is the application of quantum mechanics on the human body... The basic situation is to use artificial observations to collapse the infinite possibilities to what we want The necessary inevitable result. Regarding this, we call it 'personal reality'. And using 'personal reality' to interfere with the 'relative reality' of this world is the process of using superpowers."

Kihara Kagun explained to the guests (actually only Kamijou) the basic principles of the development of artificial abilities in words that ordinary people can understand.

But these are actually things that can be found in textbooks. Even if you understand all the principles, the principles are just principles.

Just like E=mc? with nuclear bombs.

After hearing Teresa's figure in his ear, Kamijou asked, "Well, sorry to interrupt..."

"Well, what's the matter?" Kihara Kagun stopped talking, turned around and asked, "Do you want to experience the development process of artificial abilities?"

"Of course not! What I want to ask is, this is a laboratory for studying the development of artificial abilities. Why do I feel the power of other attributes? For example, magic power, Houkai energy, and spiritual power."

As Kamijou said, he turned his head and looked east.

Behind the wall over there, he did feel a lot of power.

The smooth and long fluctuations seem to be the operation of the Houkai Energy Furnace, Magic Power Engine and the like.

"Could it be that the development of artificial ability users also needs the assistance of other factions?"

"You should be talking about energy-assisted research labs, but artificial ability users don't need other energy to assist them. Because artificial ability users are not supernatural power users with 'energy' as their core."

Kihara Kagun explained.

"Although the ability users of other mainstream factions use different powers and structures, they are all essentially the same. It is the way of 'using a certain energy to construct a certain system to promote a certain result'. But artificial ability users What is used is personal reality, and the observation method of "quantum mechanics" is used to affect reality. In other words, the use of abilities by artificial abilities is actually using quantum mechanics to promote natural phenomena. It is formed by nature itself, and artificial abilities are here In the process, there is actually no energy such as 'magic power' or 'spiritual power'. Therefore, there is actually a natural difference between people with artificial abilities and people with ordinary abilities."

"what......"

To be honest, Kamijou didn't understand.

I had to reread Kihara Kagun's words.

"That is to say, there is no need for external energy stimulation from other factions. Then why, there is still that energy auxiliary research room?"

"It's to experiment with the possibility of artificial ability users being compatible with other ability users."

It was not Kihara Kagun who spoke, but a white-haired old man who looked half bald and squinted.

He hunched over, walked slowly with his hands behind his back.

"It's Professor Kihara Gensei."

Suzuko whispered into Kamijou's ear.

With that tone, Kamijou could clearly feel her dislike for the old man in front of him.At the same time, he also noticed that Kihara Kagun, who was facing away from Kihara Gensei, also frowned slightly.

"Hi, I'm bothering you."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. It's our honor that Fantasy Gospel and Heart Control are willing to visit. Especially Fantasy Gospel, you are the hero who saved Tokyo twice. We can do research here, thanks to you yes."

"Don't dare to do it, it's all thanks to Mr. Walter and Mr. Qingren."

"Ho Ho, that's young and promising."

Kihara Gensei replied with a smile.

"The question raised by the fantasy gospel just now is the problem we have been facing all along. People with artificial abilities have embarked on a path that no one has gone before. They do not use 'special energy' to move the world, but use 'the rules of the world itself' To promote the world, the chairman who proposed this idea is undoubtedly great. However, artificial ability users are not without flaws."
