C100

Duan Lingfei seemed to have had a very, very long dream. In his dream, he stood in the middle of a vast river of stars, as if he was the king of the universe.

Then he woke up in the dark and found himself in the hospital bed. There were a few bouquets of carnations on the bed, faintly fragrant, and the sun shone through the curtains, making the room seem bright and warm.

Due to the development of his neural field, his recovery ability was astonishing. Only a few small wounds on his body were left with faint red scars. Even the knife that was deep on his back was already scarred.

The only thing that made him uncomfortable was that there were more than a dozen circular metal plates stuck to his head. They were connected to a precise apparatus beside him using wires and a row of colorful data was displayed on the screen. He did not know what they were.

"You're awake?" A familiar voice sounded from the side.

Duan Lingfei turned around, and realised that the one who spoke was Old Professor, and could not help but blurt out: "Professor, why are you here?"

"Three days ago, you were injured in a gang fight on the street. After losing too much blood, you were sent to the hospital in a coma." Old Professor did not directly answer Duan Lingfei's question.

"The hospital immediately arranged for the best surgeons to rescue you. However, they found out that your wounds are healing at an astonishing speed. You only need to sew up the wounds on your back and then bleed a little, so there won't be a big problem."

"This ability to recover aroused everyone's interest. Your brain scan showed abnormal brain activity, so they called me over."

Old Professor said as he pointed to the apparatus at the side, "This is our most advanced brain wave monitor, it can detect the fluctuations of your brain and then integrate the data with normal people's. During the three days you were unconscious, this kind of comparison has been going on for a long time."

"I was unconscious for three days?" Duan Lingfei laughed bitterly, if Old Professor did not say anything, he thought that he had only slept for a bit.

"Didn't you say that my wounds are healing very quickly?" Why have you been in a coma for so long? "

"That's what I wanted to tell you." Old Professor's expression became serious: "The reason you're unconscious doesn't have much to do with your external injuries. The main reason should be because of your brain."

As he spoke, he tapped on the device a few times. Immediately, rows of contrasting images appeared on the screen.

"I remember the last time you went to my institute, it was found that your brain cells were more than twice as active as normal people, roughly reaching 23%. When you were admitted to the institute three days ago, that number had already risen to 24%."

"For the past three days, the cell activity in your brain has been fluctuating up and down. However, since yesterday, it has stably remained at around 25%. This is 2% increase from before."

Duan Lingfei was puzzled: "What's the difference?"

"Of course there is. Don't underestimate this 2%. After all, a normal person's level of development is only about 10%." The Old Professor said in a serious tone, "You should know that our laboratory once used the Chimpanzee for experiments. Under special circumstances, the Chimpanzee's brain area would also be developed, greatly strengthening its intelligence and body."

"However, this type of increase is often unstable. It can only last for around two to three months. After that, it will gradually decline and degenerate back to its original level."

"An example like you, instead of falling back, continued to rise, has never been seen in our research."

After saying that, the Old Professor looked at Duan Lingfei as if he was going to strip him and place him on the experiment table for research.

Duan Lingfei could not help but shiver and said, "Professor, if we continue developing the brain region, wouldn't that be a good thing for me?"

"I can't exactly say that." Old Professor muttered to himself for a bit, then said: "The development of your brain will indeed make you smarter, and will also greatly increase your physical ability, reaction speed, and recovery rate. In this regard, you are indeed very lucky."

"But the drawbacks are also obvious. According to our research, when the brain is developed to a certain extent, people experience irreversible damage because of the magnitude of the change. At first, it may make you emotional, then it may cause amnesia, hallucinations, delusions, or manic symptoms, and then it may even lead to some organ or organ disease in the body."

Speaking to here, the Old Professor paused for a moment, and then said with an incomparably certain tone: "This time, you've been unconscious for three days.

Old Professor's words made Duan Lingfei sink into deep thought. His own body had the most say, and in this period of time, the pleasant surprise brought about by the development of his neural field had become obvious, while some negative changes had also become more obvious.

The fact that he had fallen into a coma for three days had sounded a warning bell for him. If the situation continued like this, who knew what would happen?

"I once invited you to come to the research institute to cooperate with our research, but unfortunately you rejected it. However, I must invite you again this time, not only for the sake of scientific research, but also for your personal body." Old Professor said seriously.

This time, Duan Lingfei thought for a long time before finally replying with great difficulty, "I will, Professor."

"That's good. From now on, you will have to come to the research institute every month to conduct a test. If your brain development level continues to rise, we will have to use some suppression methods."

After Old Professor finished speaking, he turned off the apparatus and took off all the metal sheets on Duan Lingfei's head. He said, "Your current condition is relatively stable, so I'll be leaving first. Your two friends have been waiting outside for the past three days.

With that, he pushed open the door and walked out, leaving Duan Lingfei alone in the sickroom, quietly lost in thought.

After about a minute or two, the ward's door was pushed open with a "squeak", and Liu Yanxia walked in with furrowed brows. Seeing that Duan Lingfei was sitting on the bed and seemed to be fine, he finally let out a long breath.

"Big Brother Duan, you scared me to death." Liu Yanxia immediately sat down by the sickbed.

This guy usually knew how to take care of himself. His hair was always neatly combed, and his clothes were always new. However, at this moment, he looked a little different from before.

His hair was messy like a chicken's nest, with two big dark circles under his eyes, and his clothes were full of wrinkles. It was obvious that he hadn't rested for the past two days, which was why he looked so haggard.
