After listening to Professor Bai's words, there was a moment of silence in the conference room.
There are only four people here, Professor Bai, Minister Shen, Chen Jing, and Mr. Su. After listening to Professor Bai's narration, they had different reactions. Chen Jing seemed to have some questions answered, but more doubts emerged immediately.
But she thought about something and didn't ask immediately.
Minister Shen, after being silent for a while, looked up at Professor Bai, his face looking very majestic:
"This is just speculation on your part."
"Who can be convinced by such baseless speculation?"
"..."
Minister Shen's words were already very harsh, and Chen Jing and Mr. Su's expressions immediately changed.
Even Mr. Su tapped the information on his hand and said slowly, "In addition to what we analyzed just now, there are actually some things that we can't understand. For example, what happened to the dreamer who sneaked into the individual soldier's dream to do a psychological evaluation for him? In addition, there seem to be several people under Old Shen who encountered some because of observing the individual soldier..."
He paused slightly and said, "Something bad?"
When these words were spoken, several people's eyes turned to Minister Shen.
That is City Defense Department's matter. In fact, everyone knows it, but they rarely bring it up in front of Minister Shen.
"If the difference in spiritual level is too large, spying on a person whose spiritual level far exceeds one's own is tantamount to peering into an abyss. Therefore, anything can happen. Moreover, when we were dealing with the spiritual bomb under the south wall, the individual soldiers had already reminded us that we should not spy or record. Therefore, the one who violated the rules at that time was actually... we cannot blame him."
Professor Bai explained gently and then said:
"In addition, my guess is just to give you a better understanding. In fact, what I want to convince you is the data."
He said, flipping through the information:
"Now, a single soldier has processed two pieces of Special Pollution Event in a short period of time, and the reviews were both good."
"In other words, even if you don't count the retrieval of the painting named 'The Crimson Moon's Gaze', he has already reached the standard of Level 3 Special Talent. According to our regulations, at this time, he is already qualified to apply for the second stage."
"..."
Minister Shen's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "If a person with abilities wants to carry out the second stage of strengthening, he does not just have to meet the standard. There is another important standard, and that is that his own risk of losing control must be controlled within a certain level!"
Professor Bai nodded and said, "This is exactly what I want to tell you. Based on the analysis of the existing data, he has already met the standards."
Minister Shen glanced at the "65%" on the writing board and frowned. "This is impossible!"
As he spoke, he flipped through the documents, trying to find the loopholes in the absurd report.
"Facts and figures don't lie."
Professor Bai looked at him calmly and said, "You have to admit the fact that although in the initial period, we all thought that he was at high risk of losing control, in the subsequent treatment of Special Pollution Event, he did not lose control. When faced with the Mental Pollution bomb built by Technological Church, he did not lose control. When chasing the knights outside the city, he did not lose control, and even entered Happy Town..."
"He's not out of control either!"
"The causes of loss of control are often due to the increase in mental level leading to one's own instability, or overuse of abilities causing one's own collapse, or due to some strange inducements, strong emotional impact, etc., which lead to various mutations..."
"From this perspective, individual soldiers have almost withstood the tests from various angles."
"The only thing he hasn't experienced yet is the emotional impact."
"..."
Minister Shen heard this and immediately interrupted, "But emotional impact is one of the most common reasons for losing control!"
"Yes!"
Professor Bai smiled and said, "But he has a very good habit and he abides by the rules."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Chen Jing and Mr. Su with a smile and said, "A person who abides by the rules can easily control his emotions within a certain range. Because he is willing to accept things within the rules, and he can also fight for things that break the rules with peace of mind, turning a possible emotional impact into a simple vent..."
"So..."
Professor Bai summed it up with a smile, "What a good seedling. I think he is very suitable to enter the second stage."
The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became more subtle.
Minister Shen, Chen Jing, and Mr. Su all felt that they could understand everything Professor Bai said, and even felt that what he said made sense. However, when he came to this seemingly logical conclusion, the three of them were a little confused...
... That's a single soldier!
... That was the single soldier who single-handedly solved the Mental Pollution bomb!
... That's a single soldier who dares to go out of the city alone with a pendant to chase down the knights with three ability users!
... That was a single soldier who wandered around Happy Town and then ran out as if nothing happened!
"What's your opinion?"
Professor Bai asked with a smile after finishing what he wanted to say.
"I actually don't know what to do..."
Chen Jing This time, she was the first to answer. After a pause, she said, "But I believe in facts and data!"
Mr. Su pondered for a moment and said with a frank smile, "To be honest, my understanding of ability users is not as deep as yours. Sometimes, the things you mentioned sound a bit complicated to me. However, I always remember another thing..."
"The principle we set when we set up Special Pollution Cleanup Department is to cooperate with people with abilities, not as enemies!"
As he spoke, he smiled and said, "I think this principle can help us make many decisions."
In the conference room, the three people all looked at Minister Shen.
Minister Shen's face was dark. After a while, he said, "I also agree with the principle Mr. Su said. Therefore, I do not force all ability users to join the army and treat them with the same attitude as soldiers. I even agree to allow them to keep some of their secrets and enjoy some privileges without threats. However, there is one thing we all understand..."
He was silent for a moment and then said, "Energy people are too scary."
His voice was slightly deepened. "Have you not read the data report on Happy Town?"
"... Of course, he also brought this information back!"
"There are actually people with abilities, or Pollution Source, who have turned an entire town into a structure like a honeycomb ant nest. I don't know what you are thinking. In my opinion, you even feel fear, or... I feel despair!"
"..."
For a character like his, it seemed very difficult to say this.
But he still said it and looked at Professor Bai: "So, are you really sure you know what you are doing?"
Professor Bai met his gaze, nodded calmly, and said, "I have also read the information on Happy Town. Although it is indeed surprising, to be honest, I did not feel too surprised. At the beginning, the genius researcher Eclipse Research Institute was so desperate because of his research that he jumped off a hundred-story building Research Institute. Do you still remember what he said?"
Chen Jing heard this and raised his head suddenly. "Those three curses?"
"It can't be said to be a curse, it should be said to be a warning, or... a prophecy!"
Professor Bai said slowly, "The first one is that with the emergence of mental mutations, the social structure and order we relied on before to survive will most likely face an unprecedented impact. At that time, humans may enter another survival structure."
In the conference room, listening to Professor Bai's calm and even calm words, my heart felt a little heavy.
"And the second one is..."
Professor Bai spoke slowly and looked at everyone.
At this time, Mr. Su took over his words and replied softly, "Get ready to welcome arrival of God!"
There seemed to be a slight depression in the conference room, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Minister Shen gritted his teeth slightly and tightened the muscles on his face slightly.
"Haha, there is no need to talk about the suicide note of such a madman..."
At this time, Mr. Su smiled and said, "But we must admit that Lao Shen's worries are justified..."
"When doing these things, you must be cautious and cautious..."
"..."
"I have actually been prepared for Lao Shen's worries."
Professor Bai seemed to understand what he was thinking, and said in advance, "I prepared two sentences for you, not just to tell you, but also to tell several other gentlemen..." As he spoke, he came to Minister Shen, and faced Minister Shen's somewhat confused eyes. He whispered, "Do you know that Tianlan Sea Nation is now in close contact with Shenjing Mining Company?"
Minister Shen frowned slightly, nodded, and said, "My people have grasped the news and reported it to me."
Professor Bai nodded and said, "Then did you know that after they came into contact, they talked about the culture medium?"
Minister Shen was slightly startled, then frowned.
"The second thing I want to say to you is..."
Professor Bai continued and spoke softly, "Do you think that with the current mental level of an individual soldier, he really needs to be strengthened?"
Minister Shen was a little puzzled at first, and then thought about it carefully, but suddenly his face changed drastically.
Facing his gaze, Professor Bai smiled lightly, and in this smile, there was a rare hint of fatigue, and said softly, "The second stage of the ability user mainly lies in the strengthening of mental power and stability, and he does not need to be strengthened."
"So, our job is to make him... more stable!"
"..."
The conference room fell completely silent, and everyone was thinking about the meaning of his words.
Professor Bai gently placed the document on the experimental table, turned around, and crossed his arms. "What I wanted to say has been said."
Minister Shen gritted his teeth slightly and suddenly raised his head and looked at him.
"It seems that you have already thought about how to persuade us before calling us over."
After a slight pause, he added, "I also agree with the suggestions you gave before. Therefore, if he really meets all the standards, then I will not exercise my privilege to reject his application for the second stage. However, I have a question for you to answer."
At this time, Chen Jing and Mr. Su also looked up at him curiously.
Minister Shen's face muscles tensed up and he said word by word:
"How can you guarantee that he will not become our enemy after entering the second stage?"
"..."
This question caused the atmosphere in the conference room to suddenly drop to freezing point.
This was a topic that only a few of them could discuss, and rules could not be applied.
But it's also a real problem.
Carrying out the second stage of enhancement for the ability users not only risks losing control, but also the risk that the ability users, after gaining powerful power, will turn their backs on customers and develop ambitions they did not originally have, thus posing a great threat to the entire Qinggang City...
Faced with this most heart-wrenching problem, Professor Bai smiled the most relaxedly.
"I have thought about this problem and thought of an excellent way to solve it."
Facing the curious looks of the three people around him, he smiled, snapped his fingers, and said, "Sign a contract with him!"
