Chapter 89 The Second Heart

Shi Changqing looked at Liao Yuxian’s familiar operation. It seemed that the people from the military district had already followed someone to dig out the heart.

“So this is where the stone heart comes from?” a classmate exclaimed.

Why is it here underground?
The point is, there are such extraordinary beasts underground?

Or is it a strange beast that they have never seen before? It is neither the Black Source Beast nor the strange beast, but a new type of beast?
Could it be that the strange beast with anthropomorphic movements that appeared this time is related to this?

It was the first time for everyone to see such a scene and their heads were buzzing.

It turns out that there are still so many unsolved mysteries in the world outside?
Niu Xuejing and Liao Yuxian did not explain, but asked all the classmates they met today to keep the matter secret for the time being.

Shi Changqing has been standing aside from now on, watching these people’s reactions silently. It can be seen that people from the military district are indeed involved in this matter, and it has not been brought to the surface yet.

After returning, Shi Changqing was taken away for questioning alone.

“How did you find that place?”

“While searching for an exotic animal, I suddenly heard a pulse nearby, so I curiously followed the sound and kept looking forward.”

Shi Changqing looked calm and told the truth.

Liao Yuxian was a little shocked: “You heard it with your ears?”

“What else can I use?” Shi Changqing showed clear eyes.

That’s what he asked, but from the other party’s surprised tone, he knew that they had also developed other things to detect the underground heart.

“.” Liao Yuxian hesitated and put the question aside for the time being.

She then asked, “You’ll use this mecha to penetrate the monster’s body?”

“What else can I use?” Shi Changqing’s eyes showed clearness again.

“.”

Liao Yuxian was silent again.

They have done experiments, and found that the current generation of mechas are not effective. They must use the new generation of mechas to break through the hard flesh.

Could it be possible that her internal energy could be connected to the mecha?
“Okay, it’s okay.”

“Oh, then Commander Liao, I’ll leave first.” Shi Changqing stood up and prepared to go out, when the voice behind him suddenly came again.

“You are in the second semester of the third grade now.”

Shi Changqing turned his head: “Yeah.”

“It’s time to graduate.”

“.”Does she know what she wants to say?
Get ready to turn into a beast of burden.

Alas, she said that her life has been so peaceful in the past two years.

Shi Changqing silently withdrew his gaze and walked out of the small room.

The next day, Friday morning, everyone symbolically patrolled the area for the whole day and found that they did not see any strange beasts, so they did not return to school until the evening.

After returning to school, the next two days were the weekend, and everyone got off the spaceship and went their separate ways.

The same went for Shi Changqing. The first thing she did when she returned to the dormitory was to take a shower and then take out the three hearts that she had kept for almost a year.

This thing has been kept in her storage space box.

She was wondering when these three hearts would stop beating, and they ended up being left there for more than a year.

So full of life.

Shi Changqing suddenly had an idea: if this thing was placed on a dead person, would the person be able to be revived?

But even if he is saved, this is not a human heart after all. If a normal person follows the heart of a beast, will his behavior and reason be affected by it and become the same as that of a beast?
Or maybe mutation?
She was too lazy to think about it and put it away.

On weekends, Shi Changqing stayed in the dormitory and practiced martial arts and meditation all the time. She did not open her eyes until three o’clock in the morning on Monday.

Take a deep breath.

She took off her glasses and threw them on the table beside her.

The person who created these glasses that can enhance mental power is truly a talent.

Shi Changqing discovered that the longer she used this thing, regardless of how it improved her mental strength, the more effective it was when she used it to meditate and practice martial arts.

Are all of Shi Yunsheng’s colleagues so capable?

At four o’clock in the morning, the school wake-up bell rang.

Routine school-wide running exercise on Monday.

The campus, which was quiet just now, suddenly became lively and bustling.

Shi Changqing integrated into these youthful students and ran with them on the track until they saw the sunrise. The warm sun shone through the mist, and then everyone slowly stopped. All kinds of laughter and talking could be heard in their ears.

“I’m starving. What are you going to eat later?”

“I haven’t eaten the roast chicken from the Third Canteen for a long time.”

“No way, eating something so heavy so early in the morning.”

“It’s better to drink nutrient solution than to eat roast chicken.”

“No dog would drink the nutrient solution.”

“You’d better not bark then.”

Two weeks later.

“According to Mr. Shi Yunsheng, the founder of the Federal Lowa Research Institute who is responsible for the new generation of mechas, Mecha 2.0 has entered the critical period of experimental testing. It is reported that this 2.0 new generation mecha will greatly enhance the unlimited potential of human beings. It does not restrict the use of any mental power. Even C, D, E level mental power can use the new generation of mechas and exert various indicators of physical fitness above S level. Once successful, StarCraft may usher in the era of mecha 2.0.”

In the classroom, before the bell rang, I don’t know whose computer was playing this morning news.

The class, which was already quiet to begin with, suddenly became even quieter.

After the news broadcast was over, the air was silent for a few seconds.

“really?”

Some students turned on their light computers to check the news.

Shi Changqing was also a little surprised. This was the first time he heard news about Shi Yunsheng in the classroom.

As a result, several computer screens in the classroom all played the same news in varying degrees.

The clip also includes a photo of Shi Yunsheng taking a photo with a camera with a black mosaic.

As soon as this news came out, other news outlets also began to follow suit and report the same news.

There is no restriction on the use of mental power, which means that the mecha is no longer graded?

The most core materials for designing mechas will also change.

Shi Changqing had taken a class on mechas, and the graded mechas they were using now were nothing more than some core materials designed according to the range of mental power values. This was also the way to provide maximum protection for soldiers with low mental power, and to avoid damage to mental power caused by the conduction of high-intensity mecha core perception.

“It’s actually true. When this news first broke out, there was no splash until today. I thought it was a failure. It’s only been a year and it’s already entered the critical period. At this rate, won’t it be able to go public in a few years?”

“A few years? That’s a bit too fast. It takes a long time from listing to gradual opening and then to full opening.”

“Can we really enter the era of mecha 2.0?”

“I really want to give it a try, but unfortunately there is no internal test qualification on the official website.” That afternoon, another piece of blockbuster news broke, overshadowing Shi Yunsheng’s news about Mecha 2.0 in the morning.

[A team from the Liming Research Institute has released information about human evolution: ‘Humans may have two hearts at the same time. The second heart can be regarded as a second life for humans, and it can help humans increase their potential and prolong their life. The Dual Heart Project is in the final experimental stage. The second heart is not a human heart. Please do not conduct experiments or imitate it without authorization. Specific relevant information will be disclosed later.’]

This even more explosive news quickly caused a lot of buzz.

“Are you crazy?! A second heart?”

“May I ask where this second heart came from? What does a non-human heart mean? Damn! Other f*cking evolution has turned into mutation.”

“What’s going on with this research institute? How could they conduct such an anti-human experiment?”

“Really? If you die, you die. What’s the point of having a second heart? What’s the point of living a few more years?”

“Why are you worrying so much? It’s not for you anyway. This will definitely give priority to single soldiers, pure cow-horse warriors.”

There is a lot of opposing discussion online.

When this news broke, everyone had just finished class.

The students in their special class had already been exposed to the heart in advance, and when they saw the news pop up on the computer, they exclaimed, “Oh shit!”

“Could the second heart be that?” Someone glanced at his classmate cautiously and whispered.

“Can that thing still be used like this?”

Shi Changqing suddenly remembered the last time he met the man with two hearts in the underground of the Black Abyss. There was a hole in his right chest last time, and the reason he was able to survive was because of his other heart.

Could he be the subject of this experiment?

But how can the hearts of animals be used on humans?

and many more.

Why did she think it was the heart of an animal? This was something that had not been confirmed, but she was a little too sure that the monster had the same heart.

Could it be a trick, and the monster was actually equipped with that kind of heart?
Shi Changqing didn’t expect that this world contained so many complicated secrets.

“Which research institution is this Dawn Research Institute? Is it formal?” Shi Changqing participated in the discussion.

“This research institute used to be affiliated with the Imperial Alliance. It is a century-old research institute. But now it seems to be neutral, neither under the control of the Empire nor the Federation.” Zhuge Li replied.

“If it’s that kind of heart, no wonder we haven’t touched the heart since the last time. Could it be that we have discovered a new use for it?” other students interrupted.

Ever since Xuanyuan Lan took someone from their special class to absorb the energy of a heart, there has been no further sound since then.

Although there is a confidentiality agreement, we are all on the same campus and there is no wall that is impenetrable.

According to unreliable sources, such an experiment was only conducted once in the special classes of second and third grades.

There was no follow-up, but each of their assessments had an energy data comparison chart. Of course, only the teacher could see this.

As for those who have absorbed the energy of the heart, their strength seems to be breaking through the limit little by little.

Despite this, no one could beat Shi Changqing.

“Why do I feel like this news is going to be a big deal? Are we really going to enter a new era of StarCraft 2.0?”

“I also feel that something is a bit abnormal. There was no sign of this Dual Heart Project, and it was suddenly revealed. It is still in the final experimental stage. From the beginning of research to now, it must have taken more than a hundred years to prepare before they dared to bring it up?”

“Will we be forced to install that kind of heart in the future?”

“In my opinion, it may not be our turn.”

“Shi Changqing, would you press this kind of heart?” Someone turned around and asked Shi Changqing what he thought.

Shi Changqing: “No, whoever dares to force me, I will send him to hell.”

As she spoke, she symbolically clenched her fist and gently hammered it on the desk.

All of a sudden, the classmates in the class gave a thumbs up and said, “It has to be you.”

“It suddenly occurred to me that the anthropomorphic beasts on Planet S7591 might be the people experimenting with the dual heart, right?”

“Fuck, don’t make it sound so scary.”

“Look, it says it’s not a human heart, except from an animal, so it can’t be artificial, right?”

“.”
–
In the evening, when Shi Changqing was preparing to meditate and practice in the dormitory, his computer received a message.

AAA product wholesaler Xiao Wang: [Hello, are you interested in discussing high-level spiritual power? There may be someone like you here. ]

Shi Changqing was stunned for a second when she looked at the message. She scrolled through the chat history and found that the name was the middleman behind the three-no product that tested mental power.

What does it mean that this guy said this more than a year later?
“There are people like me? What do you mean? People with the same 10S spiritual power or people with the same high power as me?”

The other party sent another address: [The address is ‘Z1 Xingtianchen Road No. 7’, we are waiting for you to come over anytime. ]

Shi Changqing squinted his eyes and stared for a long time, then closed the chat interface without choosing to reply.

Then they searched for Z1, which was an ordinary little star, and there was nothing special about the surrounding stars.

She also searched the address sent by the other party. According to the satellite map, that location was a small shop that enhanced spiritual power and also a mecha repair shop.

Shi Changqing raised his eyebrows. Is he disguising so well?

But why would the other party come to her at this time?
She took out the instrument for detecting mental power. Could it be that there was some internal networking equipment installed on it?
Or positioning?
Ever since the last time her mental power was measured at 10S until now, her mental power has remained stable at 10S, without any increase or decrease.

Shi Changqing thought for a moment, then crushed the instrument into pieces with his bare hands.

She no longer needs to test her mental strength.

Shi Changqing thought about it and sent a message to Shi Xinyu: [I crushed the mental power test product you gave me.]

Shi Xinyu replied immediately: [? ]

Shi Changqing: [I’m afraid there’s a location sensor installed inside.]

Shi Xinyu: [.]

Shi Xinyu had just returned to the dormitory from the training building and was silent for a moment when he saw the message.

This is something his sister can do.

But why did I think of this only now?
After thinking for a while, he asked again: [What happened? ]

Shi Changqing didn’t reply, and the smart Shi Xinyu didn’t ask any more questions. After thinking for a moment, he took out the three-no product that he hadn’t used for a long time.

The last time the school asked him to retest his mental power, he was tested at 4S. It must be said that Gong Xiren’s glasses that enhanced mental power were indeed effective.

After more than a year, he improved to 5S again. This was when Shi Yunsheng came back during the summer vacation and took the opportunity to test them.

Therefore, his current mental strength has not been made public.

However, he vaguely felt that it was because he absorbed the heart stones given by Shi Changqing, or that the auxiliary power was greater.

At least his mental strength improved faster than before.

Fortunately, he didn’t feel any discomfort when operating the mecha.

He looked at the product, thought about it, broke it in pieces and threw it into the trash can.

Since Shi Changqing said so, he must have discovered something. It would be better for him not to get involved. If he wants to test his mental power, he can just go find Shi Yunsheng.
