Chapter 694: Chapter 692: The Mont of Eating (9)_1 Chapter 694: Chapter 692: The Mont of Eating (9)_1 Gaya had a fairly good sense of the situation.
It wasn’t long before Dr. Cynthia hurried over.
However, this one remained calm, and upon witnessing the scene of Gaya being choked, she did not waste ti with a soul-searching inquiry but instead directly threw over a stack of docunts.
Fu Qian caught them with his other hand, sat back down to his original spot with Gaya in tow, and opened the docunts.
At first glance, it indeed looked like a proper report.
First of all, these people referred to the horse in the lowest level room as “Dimming Pony,” discovered during a certain exploration.
And as of now, this was the second test conducted on it.
The first test took place a year ago when they found it.
The impact on cognition was also discovered at that ti.
But due to insufficient preparation, the related records were not very extensive.
By contrast, the abnormal results of this ti were densely packed, with a long list attached to the back.
After a brief review, one could basically confirm that Dr. Cynthia’s earlier words were not false.
A significant number of people had brain issues due to its influence, and most of them ntioned the na Patch.
That special horse seed to be constantly infusing the self-identity of “Patch” into those around it through a psychic neighing.
Open any record at random, and you would find that test personnel exposed in front of it began repeatedly identifying themselves as Patch, their characters also becoming vile, taking pleasure in deceiving and mocking others.
However, while cognition was affected, it wasn’t entirely detrintal.
As test subjects who were Transcendents, many experienced growth or mutation in their abilities, with a few even directly receiving a rank elevation.
It was basically understandable why such effort was put into this kind of testing.
This effect, which could enhance ranks in bulk, was too valuable for a large organization, of course under the premise of avoiding various side effects.
Furthermore, the most important…
Fu Qian looked at the records from last year and saw that the Dimming Pony’s neighing had lasted exactly two days and nights before falling silent.
And this year’s test had already been going on for nearly two days as well.
This ant that if it was the sa as last year, he did not have much ti left.
“Mr. Patch.”
Seeing that Fu Qian, despite being surrounded, was actually reading with interest, Dr. Cynthia remained silent for a while, finally sitting down in Gaya’s seat and initiating conversation.
“Could you loosen up on Dr. Gaya for now? After all, even if you’re using him as a hostage, it’s still better to keep him alive.”
Oh?
Fu Qian turned his head to look at Gaya next to him, who undoubtedly looked terrible, with a state of black veering into blue spreading across half his face in an effort to resist the grip.
As a Middle Tier Transcendent, Fu Qian did not believe Gaya could be easily strangled to death, but considering Dr. Cynthia’s good communication posture…
“Of course, I can!”
The next mont, Fu Qian let go of his hand and shoved the man aside.
Never expected Fu Qian to be so unrestrained, casually giving up the hostage, the people, including Gaya gasping for breath, were all dumbfounded.
“I’ve dealt with many ‘Patches,’ and they were visibly maddening and troubleso.”
Even Dr. Cynthia was clearly sowhat shocked at this mont.
“But I must say, this kind of behavior, voluntarily giving up leverage, is beyond my expectation.”
“That just shows they lack style,”
Fu Qian replied offhandedly, his eyes not even leaving the docunts.
“Communication is a rather wonderful thing,”
“And if I need bargaining chips, I can always catch more.”
“That’s exactly what I wanted to ask.”
The next mont, to everyone’s surprise, Cynthia actually took out pen and paper, staring at Fu Qian without blinking.
“How exactly did you do it, that level of power?”
“The enhancent is just too astonishing! Much more exaggerated than previous cases.”
Even now, she hadn’t forgotten her main responsibility, this spirit of inquiry was truly admirable.
Finally, Fu Qian put down the docunts, looked up at Cynthia, and then glanced at Gaya Ulrich next to her.
“It seems you are more professional than the project leader here? Is there sothing irrational about the structure of your organization?”
“We just have different roles, after the tests are completed, everyone will get what they deserve.”
In the face of Fu Qian’s clearly malicious provocation, Cynthia seed utterly unmoved.
“The clarity of reward and punishnt has its advantages.”
Feeling the certainty in Cynthia’s words, Fu Qian nodded and did not continue with his pointless attempts.
“So, back to your earlier question, have you ever considered that the so-called previous cases might be the abnormal ones?”
“It’s not that I’ve enhanced too much, but rather they have enhanced too little, because this power was mine all along!”
Fu Qian clenched his fist, looking at Dr. Gaya who subconsciously distanced herself from him.
As expected of the Middle Tier Transcendent, she had completely recovered in no ti.
However, it was clear that she was not very willing to continue interacting with him.
“Those people rely on self-deception, and all they end up with is a false enhancent.”
“I must say, out of all the cases I know, you are indeed the most extre one.”
After pondering for a few seconds, Cynthia comnted on Fu Qian’s words and actions.
“But based purely on what I’ve seen so far, I would rather understand this anomaly as, the greater the degree of cognitive distortion, the greater the enhancent received.”
“A reasonable speculation, if I were you, I’d think the sa.”
Fu Qian clapped his hands several tis.
“But there’s a saying, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it is a duck.”
“From that perspective, even if I’m displaying extre distortion right now, what’s the difference between that and being Patch?”
“Of course I’ve heard the duck analogy before, but in this place, there really is a fundantal difference.”
Cynthia appeared quite certain.
“Cognitive victims, and those who are inherently abnormal beings, are completely different to the Night Watchman!”
“The latter would be eliminated without hesitation, but if it’s the forr, as long as you are willing to cooperate, I can’t think of anything principled that would stop you from freely leaving this place.”
Seeing that Fu Qian didn’t make a sound, Cynthia showed a slight smile and continued to speak.
“I know your strength is formidable now, but trust , it’s still far from enough.”
“Even if you manage to use various ans to escape this heavily guarded underground structure, a Demigod Level Transcendent will definitely find you within a day.”
“And whether They co from the company or the Night Watchman, you will lose any chance to negotiate and be eliminated in the most efficient manner.”
Dr. Cynthia had no doubt a knack for persuasion, and after her analysis, the room once again fell into an eerie silence.
“I think I understand what you an, tell , how do you want to cooperate?”
After considerable thought, Fu Qian finally appeared to be convinced.
