Chapter 148: Reason and emotion


The labyrinth alleys in the 23rd district make Leo feel a bit similar to the cage city. Below is a narrow alley with all directions, and secret passages crisscross above. Numerous irregular houses huddled together crookedly, leaning on each other and supporting With.
However, what is different from the cage people is that the people here are lifeless, whether it is a prostitute standing on the street to pick up a guest, or a civilian looking for flowers and asking Liu, all the faces are covered with numbness and indifference.
Perhaps because of the scarcity of guests, the entire city seemed very dead, and the signboards of Jinjinwo, which were outlined with special fluorescent juices, also appeared dim at the moment. The senior prostitutes who had only stayed in the house had to put down only Some pride, standing at the door to invite customers.
Under the leadership of the woman, Leo walked through these fat alleys. Although some women on the road tried to come up to attract guests, when they saw Leo's skin color, they showed extremely obvious disgust and panic. The colors have evaded.
As for the city guards who patrolled back and forth, they just looked at Leo, and had no intention of checking. They just let Leo go through the city. It can be seen that for these city guards, patrolling the 23rd district is only a routine matter.
The two tandem, after walking through a dozen alleys and walking through at least eight suspension bridge aisles, they soon came to house 11 in Baiwu District.
Peter Alcott seems to enjoy living by the lake. The house he is looking for in the eleventh district is by the lake, and this secret accommodation in the twenty-third district is also placed by the lake.
It is not appropriate to say that the house is by the lake. More precisely, the house was built on the lake.
The whole house is a set of three-story buildings. The materials are similar to those of the surrounding houses. It is made of a piece of scattered wood. It looks like a building block that will collapse at any time.
The foundation of the building is a few thick vines that extend from the vine platform. These vines are all suspended in the air, and there is a distance from the lake, so the house seems to be suspended in the sky from far away, let you see this house People and people living in this house will involuntarily develop a sense of insecurity.
"This is a good place to destroy corpses!" Leo's first feeling after seeing this house suspended on the lake is not the insecurity that had never been there before, but how to use this house's special The location is right.
I have to say that it's best to use this house as a place to destroy corpses. Those corpses don't need to be moved at all. Just open a hole in the bottom of the house and throw it into the lake to completely wipe out any traces.
Before coming to the house, Leo did not immediately open the door with the key given by Peter Alcott, but first explored the situation inside and outside the house with the spirit net, and first figured out the environment.
After some investigation, Leo found that the seemingly old and dilapidated house actually contained other contents. Peter Alcott seemed to use his mechanical talents completely, making the house into a house. A mechanical house.
According to the analysis of the auxiliary brain system, once the steam boiler of the house is started and enough power is provided to the mechanical devices of the house, the house can be turned into a fully automatic mechanical house with functions like automatic laundry and automatic lighting, and There is also an automatic defense system inside the house, capable of launching a sufficiently fatal attack on the enemy outside and into the house.
However, it is not difficult to see from the details of some mechanical design that this house should be a test product. Peter Alcott only just used this house to practice his hands and experimented with some mechanical devices, because there are still in the mezzanine of the house. A large number of mechanical devices are only partly installed. Judging from the operating principles of these devices, they should be part of some kind of transmitter.
Leo walked to the door of the house, inserted the key into the slot, twisted the lock, and after hearing the clicking sound, all the oil lamps in the house were activated by the mechanical device, and the steam stove on the top of the house was lit at the same time. It also started to work, providing power to the house.
Leo felt a slight tremor on the floor under his feet. Although this tremor was very inconspicuous and difficult for most people to detect, it was actually a fatal trap. If the person does not use the key to open the door, but directly hits them with an external force, then the floor within two meters in diameter in front of the door will become a trapdoor, throwing the person standing on it to the lake below.
"I...I..." Just when Leo was about to enter the house, the woman who was leading suddenly wanted to say something, but because of the little self-esteem, she didn't know how to speak.
"Is there anything else?" Leo looked at the woman and asked.
"Excuse me, can I live in your porter until the next rest period?" the woman asked, anxiously, but afraid that Leo was not greater than, and quickly took out the lake coin that Leo had given her before. : "I can pay."
Leo looked at the coins in the hands of the woman and said: "It's very deserted here, plus the recent murders, basically no one will come here, you can't wait for any guests here."
The woman lowered her head and whispered, "I just want to find a quiet place to rest. I never thought of finding a guest."
Leo can hear sadness and despair from the woman's words. It is conceivable that if this woman is not concerned, this woman may not be able to support tomorrow. According to Leo’s original character, he doesn’t care about such things. There are so many people who die every day in the world. This is not bad, but the new temperament produced after the fusion with the body gives him a sympathy that he has never had before. .
Leo doesn't like this kind of compassion, because it will affect his rational judgment of things, but he hates the guilt that is generated after compassion is not realized, which will greatly wear off his fighting spirit.
"Come in!" Leo finally chose to obey his new personality, which he still can't fully adapt to, let the woman into the house, and after closing the door, he continued to ask: "Do you know how to be a maid?"
The woman was stunned and quickly realized that an opportunity appeared in front of her and nodded quickly: "I know, I know, I used to be a maid in Baron Osborne's house for a while."
Leo expressed his thoughts and said: "I will live here for a few days. In these days, I need a servant to take care of my diet and daily life. It is a union currency reward every day. If you feel suitable, Just stay!"
"I can, I can." The woman responded quickly.
Leo nodded, then led the woman around on the first floor. He had long understood the structure of the house through the spiritual network. He pointed out the positions of the maid's room, kitchen and other rooms, and took out ten alliance coins as these. Tian's family gave it to the woman, and then asked again: "Yes, I don't know your name yet."
"My name is Sophie, lord!" the woman replied immediately, and even the title of Leo changed.
"My name is Leo Dodd, you can call me Mr. Dodd, or sir, you don't need to call your lord." Leo commanded: "You will stay on the first floor in the future. When you eat normally, you will be notified directly by the bell. I will be fine."
"Yes, old... sir!" Sophie hasn't been able to change her tongue for a while.
Leo felt that there was nothing else to command, so he turned and walked upstairs. After walking a few stairs, he suddenly stopped again and turned to Sophie, said: "Also you better clean up your body, Change your clothes and arrange your hair. The expenses will be paid directly from your home. People can pass as long as they live.
"Yes, sir." Sophie lowered her head when she heard Leo's relief, and her voice choked, thanking her.
Leo said nothing more, turned around and continued to walk upstairs, but the look on his face was not very beautiful.
After walking to the second floor, he opened the door of a study directly by relying on his understanding of the house, closed the door heavily, and then walked back and forth in the room, whispering in his mouth: "Anything difficult for people as long as they live It can be passed, what kind of bullshit! The personality influence is getting more and more serious, and the way of thinking and behavior are affected. Vice brain, conduct a first-level personality assessment."
As the order was issued, Leo had a page of personality test answers in front of him, and he quickly checked the options. This answer sheet is an answer sheet that must be completed after the soldiers of the Earth Federation are enlisted. The purpose is to determine the personality trend of the soldier by analyzing the answer sheet options, so as to decide which department of the army he is suitable for.
At the time of the Earth Federation, Leo, as a biochemical person, had a fixed department after enlistment, so he had not received the evaluation of this answer sheet, but the content of this answer sheet was still kept in his memory, because it was a special As the commander of the squad, he must evaluate the personality of ordinary soldiers who join him.
Soon an evaluation report with all options checked was entered into the data analysis of the para-brain system. It didn't take long before the final evaluation results were revealed in his eyes.
"Position commander, 90% adaptability? Logistics equipment department, 90% adaptability?" Leo saw two professions with the same adaptability but different combat methods appear in front of him. Surprised and felt understandable.
In the personality assessment report of the Earth Federation, there are two cases of occupational assessment results, and there are some cases where the occupational fitness is up to 90%. However, all of these cases without exception all indicate that the person being assessed is in a mental state of split personality , With dual or multiple personality.
In a certain respect, Leo is indeed in a state of split personality. His past personality and thinking are not completely integrated with the original character and thinking of his body, so he will make some personal characters that are contrary to the past. , But it is in line with its own character choices and words.
Before, Leo had been aware of this problem, and thought it was an inevitable stage after character fusion. It was not considered a trouble. As long as he was careful, it would be fine, but he just gave sympathy to Sufi and took Sufi. , So that he could not help but be vigilant about the side effects of the character fusion process.
Leo did not resent the kind of sympathy for the weak, because this sympathy made him feel more like a real person now, rather than a biochemical person who only wanted to kill each other and complete the task.
Sympathy is a good thing, but sympathy begins to affect the way of thinking and the right or wrong decision, then this problem is a big problem.
Just now, for the sympathy of Sophie, Leo can give Sophie some money and let her make a living outside, but in the end he chose to let Sophie as a maid, responsible for the most important food and daily life for his own life. This is obviously too much. There is no reason at all, and emotion completely controls the reason.
"Vice brain, analyze the situation, and sort out solutions." With Leo's order, Fave quickly sorted out dozens of plans, arranged in order from top to bottom.
The first solution is the Earth Federation’s standard plan to deal with soldiers with multiple personalities. It opens up the second secondary brain and sends all non-primary personalities into the second secondary brain to serve as the secondary brain intelligence.
However, this plan was rejected by Leo in the first time, not to mention that he did not want to abandon the personality and emotions that are now merging~EbookFREE.me~ Even if he is willing to abandon his own personality and emotions, he will return to the bioman State, he can not open up the second vice brain.
Because the development difficulty of the second accessory brain far exceeds the difficulty of the initial accessory brain development, it is easy to develop the initial accessory brain only by mastering the correct method and controlling the brain spirit to a certain degree, but the second accessory brain development It is necessary to borrow a lot of external force, and the most difficult external force is to perform brain surgery, physically separate part of the brain, and it is impossible to complete such surgery under the current conditions.
After vetoing the first plan, Leo went down and continued to search for a suitable plan. However, the dozens of plans afterwards were all the standard plans of the Earth Federation. Among them, either the federal technology was involved, or it would cost a lot of money Neither time nor energy is the solution he wants.
After searching for more than a dozen unsuccessful results, Leo was impatiently letting the sub-brain system eliminate all the programs related to the Earth Federation and those that are currently unachievable, and only three of them were left to rely on his current ability. Available solutions.
Looking at the general content of these three plans, Leo denied those two plans that took a lot of time, and finally left a plan to stabilize emotions through pharmacy and avoid emotions affecting judgment.
This kind of medicine is called a quiet medicine, and the prescription is recorded behind an old pharmacist's manual. It is an unpublished trial medicine, specially made by the wizard association to make it for the wizard to enter in the shortest time. To a calm and clear state of mind, will not be affected by disturbed and confused emotions.
However, it is further recorded at the end of the prescription that it seems that this medicine has some side effects. If it is taken too much, it will cause the user to make a bad change. As for how it changes, it is not mentioned above.
