C115 – Volunteer Experiment

The next morning, after the two of them had breakfast, they directly contacted Arman about He Yishu’s intentions.

 

“A healing rune card? And for the mental domain?” Arman was surprised at this, as this was the first time he had heard that someone was going to use a rune card on a human’s mental domain.

 

 

“Yes, I know that this matter may sound a bit sudden, but in my personal opinion, it’s not impossible to achieve, especially after I’ve already created Han character cards that can boost a person’s mental energy,” He Yishu nodded and explained his thoughts in detail, “Since Han Character Cards are able to boost the combat power of mechas while also boosting the mental energy of mecha warriors and rune card masters, then at least theoretically, Han Character Cards that only act on human mental energy alone should exist. By analogy, it’s not impossible for Han character cards capable of healing that area to exist.”

 

After pondering for a while, Arman finally nodded in agreement, “What you said makes sense, if it’s you, you might really be able to do such a thing.”

 

 

He Yishu then stated the problem: “However, the problem now is that the Rune Card Detector can only detect Han character cards designed for mecha combat, so we can’t be sure if the healing-type Rune Card I created is actually useful or not.”

 

Adrian added from the side, “So our current intention is to test through practice whether the healing-type rune cards targeting the human mental domain have any effect or not. If the healing rune cards produced by Xiao Yishu really have an effect, father should also be well aware of what it means for humans.”

 

 

A fine light flashed through Arman’s eyes, he certainly knew the significance of this matter better than anyone else, so he quickly made a decision, “Alright, I will arrange this matter as soon as possible. Xiao Yishu, it’s already very good that you were able to make such a guess and attempt!”

 

 

“Uncle, I’m just thinking out of the blue, maybe these rune cards don’t work at all.” He Yishu smiled shyly.

 

 

Arman smiled and praised He Yishu a few more times before hanging up, and then He Yishu sent all the healing rune cards he had created to Arman.

 

 

 

While He Yishu was completing this operation, Adrian said seriously beside him: “Whether these rune cards are useful or not, it’s already very impressive that you could come up with such an idea. Humans have survived in a certain environment for too long, and are easily limited by the inherent patterns that exist in the environment, so before you, no one had ever suggested that we could try to use rune cards on the human body or mental energy, so this is in itself a great attempt to break out of the shackles.”

 

 

“Hearing you praise me like this makes me feel embarrassed.” He Yishu was really not too embarrassed, he was after all different from these people who had been living in the Interstellar Empire, and it was for this reason that he had speculations in this regard.

 

 

If he was also like Adrian and the others, whose default thinking was that rune cards could only work on mechas, he wouldn’t have been able to do something like what he did today.

 

 

Adrian picked up He Yishu’s hand and gently kissed the back of it, saying earnestly and affectionately, “I’m praising you, and at the same time, I’m also sighing at my own good fortune that I was able to meet you.”

 

 

He Yishu smiled faintly and went closer to give Adrian a deep kiss.

 

 

In the next few days, He Yishu received an inexplicable anonymous letter every day as usual, but he didn’t take this matter to heart, but because the other party was anonymous, he couldn’t even pull them into the blacklist.

 

 

As for the matter of the healing rune card, three days later, Arman took the initiative to contact him: “We have identified three volunteers, they have already received meticulous physical and mental domain examinations, and tomorrow we can conduct experiments on the use of the healing rune card, would you and Adrian like to come over to take a look?”

 

He Yishu and Adrian exchanged a glance and He Yishu responded first, “If it’s possible, I’d actually like to go over.”

 

 

“This matter itself is led by you, so you certainly have the right to participate in it.” Arman’s voice took on an obvious smirk. “I’ll send someone to the First Academy tomorrow to pick you guys up and bring you over.”

 

 

Regarding Arman’s arrangement, He Yishu had a hint of doubt: “Wouldn’t it be better for us to go there directly? Do we still need someone to come and pick us up?”

 

 

Speaking of this, Arman’s expression became grave: “Although the military department is investigating the source that sends you anonymous letters every day, no useful information has been found for the time being, which also indicates that the other party is most likely a force hidden in the shadows, so we must treat it with caution.”

 

 

If it was just an anonymous letter handled through normal means, the military department should have been able to find out its source very quickly, but the current situation wasn’t optimistic.

 

 

He Yishu raised an eyebrow and nodded. “Then I’ll trouble Uncle.”

 

 

The next day, Arman’s people came to the First Academy early and safely sent He Yishu and Adrian to the military department. The two were arranged by Arman in the next room where the test was conducted, and through the glass, they were able to clearly see the situation in the next room.

 

 

“These three are all officers who had to leave the military headquarters after their mental domains were damaged in the previous battle; they are absolutely reliable.” Arman roughly explained the identities of these three people.

 

He Yishu nodded, he didn’t care about that, what he cared most about now was the results of the experiment later.

 

 

Half an hour later, the first experiment officially began.

 

 

After making sufficient preparations, the medical staff of the military department placed a healing rune card into the prepared rune card slot, and then switched on the power of the rune card slot.

 

 

The volunteer was lying on the medical bed connected to the card slot, and after the power of the card slot was turned on, a translucent layer with curvature slowly formed around him, which was the area where the card worked.

 

 

Several medical personnel were standing around the medical bed, ready for emergency operations, and now He Yishu and the others next door were also closely watching the man’s reaction.

 

 

About five minutes later, the volunteer’s face slowly began to turn pale, his hands clenched tightly, looking like he was enduring some kind of pain.

 

 

But at this moment, the data on the instrument connected to his body didn’t fluctuate too significantly, his physical condition seemed very normal, only his heartbeat accelerated a bit, but this was also within the normal range.

 

 

After another five minutes of time, the volunteer’s face clearly showed a look of pain, and his two tightly clenched hands slowly moved to his head, grabbing his head.

 

 

This indicated that the rune card in the rune card slots were taking effect, it was just whether the effect was good or bad couldn’t be determined for the time being.

 

 

The corners of Arman’s lips were pursed tightly, this experimental plan could be said to be the roughest plan he had ever seen, it was put directly into the stage of human experimentation with almost no research cycle, and there was no one who knew exactly what would happen during the experiment.

 

 

However, Arman was likewise very clear that such a crude plan had a huge effect that could potentially change the fate of the entire human race, so even though on the surface he still appeared to be as calm and collected as ever, Arman’s heart was actually on the verge of jumping into his throat.

 

 

After almost ten more minutes, the volunteer’s condition looked so bad that his entire body was about to curl up into a ball, and his mouth was subconsciously spitting out meaningless sounds due to the intense pain.

 

 

Seeing this, the medical staff who was in the lab couldn’t help but open their mouths and ask for instructions, “Marshal, the volunteer’s condition looks very bad, do we need to terminate this experiment?”

 

 

Arman was silent for a second and gave a refusal: “Continue the experiment.”

 

 

The medic looked very worried, he didn’t directly follow Arman’s order, but couldn’t help but grit his teeth and said, “But he is Major General Barrow, we can’t take his life ……”

 

 

Major General Barrow had been one of the most outstanding Major Generals in the Military Ministry, if he hadn’t experienced that accident, he would have been able to achieve higher achievements in the Military Ministry, this was the common thought of everyone in the Military Ministry.

 

 

It was a pity that because of the accident in that battle, his mental domain was completely destroyed, and it was impossible for him to continue to hold the position of Major General, or even to continue to be a mecha warrior.

 

 

And that battle, Arman was also present.

 

 

Arman closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said with a firm voice, “He is only a volunteer now, and we are obliged to carry out this experiment to the end.”

 

 

The paramedic gritted his teeth in anger and retorted, “But this experiment isn’t perfect at all, we’re using Major General Barrow’s life as an experiment!”

 

 

He Yishu didn’t know what the identity of the person lying on the bed in the infirmary was, but that didn’t stop him from saying to the medical officer: “As the initiator of this experiment, I have a question for you, since in your opinion, this experiment isn’t perfect, and it seems that you don’t want this volunteer to take part in the experiment, why didn’t you prevent him from taking part in the experiment before it started? Why not stop him?”

 

 

The officer was obviously stunned by He Yishu’s words, and then retorted even more angrily, “I did stop Major General Barrow, even telling him about the problems that may arise from this experiment, but he refused!”

 

 

“Since he has already rejected your suggestion, then what position do you have now, to stop this experiment from continuing?” He Yishu nonchalantly asked, “Is it from the perspective of a bystander who has already been rejected by the person in question? Or is it from the perspective of an officer to this experiment? I’m a reasonable person, but I can’t accept such unreasonable accusations, and I hope you know that.”

 

Once again, the officer choked, as he himself was well aware that from either of those two perspectives, he actually had no reason to make the statements he had just made.

 

 

He actually understood all of these reasons, and he also knew very well that participating in this experiment was Major General Barrow’s own choice, and that he, a bystander, didn’t have any right to accuse anyone, but …… he still couldn’t help but worry.

 

 

Seeing that this officer no longer opened his mouth, He Yishu also didn’t continue to dwell on it, just at this moment, another auxiliary officer standing beside them suddenly exclaimed, “Oh my god, Major General Barrow’s mental domain seems to have fluctuated!”
