Chapter 172 Erase
"What's going on? Was there a corpse here just now?" Leo was reminded by the assistant brain system and checked the inspection records just now. Looking at the location of the corpse, there was some confusion on his face.
Although he has seen the contents of the record, Leo still finds it difficult to believe what is in the record. It would be understandable if only one corpse disappeared, but when the corpse disappeared, the memory related to it also disappeared.
Somewhat incredible.
Not to mention whether someone could silently erase some of his specific memories with his current psychic level, but just the matter of erasing other people's memories was a bit unbelievable.
Although there are some powerful psykers in the Earth Federation who say they have the ability to erase a person's memory, the so-called memory erasure only involves blocking and isolating a certain memory cell in some way, or directly removing a memory cell.
Only by directly killing the memory cells there can the effect of erasing the memory be achieved.
This kind of thing sounds simple, but the actual operation is very difficult. Even an Omega-level psyker can hardly achieve perfection, and there will definitely be various loopholes in other memory contents that have been erased.
, even if there is no need for reminders from the assistant brain, ordinary people can easily find problems with their memory.
However, now Leo discovered that although the memory related to the corpse had been erased, there was no abnormality in the memory array related to it in his memory. He could clearly remember that the white-haired woman came out of a space rift.
Zhong broke in, and then he passed the king and the queen blocked the pursuers behind and allowed the teleportation rift to close.
Carefully analyze this memory through the accessory brain system. It is not difficult to find that this memory is very complete and has no loopholes. On the contrary, adding the content recorded in the accessory brain system will make this memory superfluous and become uncoordinated.
This situation gave Leo the illusion that there was actually no problem with his own memory, but that the autopsy record in the accessory brain system was redundant data that had been tampered with by external forces.
Leo didn't take this illusion to heart. In his opinion, if there is really an external force that can tamper with the analysis records of the accessory brain system, then it is not a problem at all to directly tamper with his memory. Naturally, this cannot exist.
loopholes.
"Is it because this is a dream world?" Leo speculated about the current situation.
According to some rules of dreams, once you leave the dream, the memory in the dream will definitely be affected, and it is not incomprehensible that it will disappear directly. This situation has already been reflected in Peter Alcott.
However, Leo didn't know why his memory was affected after the corpse disappeared.
If it is just because the body is an outsider, then the female family member of the Velen world who entered the dream world with him should also be an outsider. Why will her body not disappear and her memory will not be affected in any way?
What about the impact?
While Leo was confused by all kinds of questions, he was once again puzzled and worried about the various anomalies in this dream world. He was worried that one day he would be like that corpse and be silently wiped out because he violated the rules of this world.
go.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door downstairs. Leo checked through the mental network and found that it was Witsmir. Judging from the expression on the other person's face, it was obvious that he seemed to be in a good mood and should be able to give
He brings some good news.
Leo left the white-haired woman alone in the room, got up and left the room, walked downstairs, opened the door, and said to Witsmir, who was about to continue knocking on the door, "Looking at your expression, there should be something good over there."
Got the news?" As he spoke, he stepped aside and signaled: "Come in! Come inside and tell me."
"No! It's better to talk outside. This room is too evil. Only capable people like you dare to live in it." Witsmir stood at the door with no intention of going in. After politely declining,
, got back to the point and preached: "There is indeed good news from the Nowitzki family. However, I did not discuss this matter with the current head of the Nowitzki family, but with the deceased's brother, who
It means that as long as you can help find out who did the evil thing, you don’t need to do anything, and the rest can be left to him. In the end, whether someone catches it or not, what you want will be handed over to you.
."
"Is there such a good thing?" Leo was a little surprised by the conditions Witsmir said, but soon he thought of something and said with a smile: "Could this victim's brother be Nowitzki?"
The first heir of the family, right?"
Witsmir nodded with a smile and said: "There is a lot of criticism within the Nowitzki family against the new heir, so the heir hopes to do something useful to enhance his reputation, but he doesn't want to do something that is useful to enhance his reputation.
Things were out of control and I was involved, so I made such a condition."
Leo asked again: "I shouldn't be the only one involved in this matter, right?"
Witsmir smiled and said: "There are indeed some people who are similar to me. They just use this as a warm-up before entering the abandoned city. They have not thought about whether they can succeed, so you don't have to worry about them."
"I really don't need to worry about them." Leo smiled and said to Witsmir: "Wait here for a while."
After saying that, Leo turned around and walked to the study room upstairs, found a pen and paper, quickly drew the specific image of the middle-aged man on the paper, then took the picture, walked downstairs, and waited patiently.
Witsmir handed it over and said: "This is the appearance of the murderer of the murder case in District 23. Not long ago, he was still living in the flower shop. Now he has disappeared, but according to my estimation, he should still be on the Seventh Lake.
Town. Here is another piece of additional information. This person is a wizard, and he is very strong. At least I am not absolutely sure that I can take him down."
Witsmir didn't expect that the matter would come to an end so quickly. He couldn't help but be stunned. He also had a little doubt in his heart, wondering whether Leo was randomly looking for someone to be the murderer in order to defraud the Nowitzki family.
Bounty.
But when he took the portrait and saw the person drawn by Leo on the paper, he was stunned.
The reason why he behaves like this is not because he knows who the person in the portrait is, but because the portraits created by Leo are so real, so real that not only the faces and figures of the characters are drawn, but also
Even that very special temperament has been painted. Seeing this portrait is like seeing the person in the painting standing in front of you. An invisible pressure rushes over your face, making people hold their breath.
Breathing, I couldn't help but think that it was this person.
If it were just an ordinary portrait, it would not produce such an effect. The portrait painted by Leo was different from ordinary portraits. Not only did he borrow the restoration ability of the accessory brain system, he made the character perfect
Restore it to the paper, and add a little trick when drawing this portrait. The spiritual aura similar to that person will be attached to the paper through psychic skills such as necromancy, so that ordinary people will be unprepared.
, can produce a shocking effect.
Witsmir gradually came back to his senses, and while carefully rolling up the portrait in his hand, he said: "What a terrible guy. Just looking at the portrait makes people feel chilled. But your painting is even more extraordinary. I have never seen it before."
I have seen such outstanding portraits, even the family painters of the Alcott family in First Lake Town may not be able to compare with them." As he said, perhaps feeling that there was something wrong with his words, he quickly explained: "Of course in your opinion
His status is naturally not comparable to those of painters from aristocratic families."
Leo signaled that Witsmir didn't need to explain anything. He didn't mind because of the wrong wording, and then turned to the topic: "After this thing is handed over to the heir of the Nowitzki family, when can I get what I want?"
"As long as it is confirmed that it is this person, the payment will be made immediately. The credibility of the Nowitzki family is still worthy of trust," Witsmir replied, and then said cautiously: "The confirmation time will not be too long, but those
Nobles especially like to play tricks, so please be careful."
"Will he still send people to assassinate me?" Leo sneered and said.
Witsmir reminded: "For those nobles, as long as there is no evidence, it never happened."
Leo said threateningly: "In this case, Mr. Wizmir, please tell me this sentence to the heir when you send the portrait, and say that I very much agree with this sentence and hope that this sentence
It won’t be used on him.”
"I will definitely convey your words." Witsmir nodded and agreed to Leo's request, then bowed and left, escorted by several bodyguards, he disappeared into an alley not far away.
Leo turned around and closed the door, while shaking his head slightly, he said with a smile: "I'm afraid this slick guy will be taken advantage of by him this time. But whatever, consider it as a reward for helping me get that magical artifact."
Already."
The positive attitude Witsmir showed just now towards the murderer of the 23rd District murder case was very abnormal. Judging from his character, if there were no huge interests in it, it would be difficult for him to be so proactive.
Although Leo didn't know what benefits Witsmir could gain from this matter, he knew very well that he might be used by Witsmir once in this matter as a tool to show off his so-called strength. Otherwise,
He would not deliberately remind him to be careful of the dirty tricks of those nobles out of nowhere, and remind him again and again.
Leo didn't care about being used by Witsmir in this way. After all, he was also using Witsmir, whether it was to obtain treasures from the Nowitzki family or to obtain a place to enter the abandoned capital. As long as Witzmir's
The incident won't affect his affairs, and it doesn't matter if he helps out and repays a small debt of gratitude.
Leo, who returned upstairs, checked on the white-haired woman, found a blanket to cover her, and then followed his previous plan, opened the entrance to the attic secret room of the mechanical study, and went up there to find some
The parts were assembled and produced based on the mechanical design drawings organized and analyzed by the assistant brain system.
Although the number of parts in this secret room is not very large, the types are very complete. All the parts required on the design drawings can be found here. Although the various tools are very different from those of the Earth Federation, it may cause some problems when using them at the beginning.
He had some minor troubles, but after getting familiar with these numerous mechanical tools with different functions, his production progress gradually got on track, and there were no more accidents.
About three hours later, more than a hundred parts taken out of the drawer were assembled into four trigger-type mechanical grenades that looked very rough in appearance.
Just like the gunpowder grenades of the old earth era, the lethality of this type of mechanical grenade against enemies still depends on the shrapnel produced during the explosion, but because this type of triggering mechanical grenade cannot form a relatively evenly distributed blast like a gunpowder explosion.
It uses force to push the fragments, and can only rely on the elastic force of this special spring to eject the fragments. Therefore, the attack direction of the grenade fragments is not as scattered and wide as the gunpowder grenade.
The mechanical grenade designed by Leo has only nine small blades with precisely calculated sizes. The moment the triggering device of the grenade is triggered, the thirteen special springs in the grenade will release the accumulated elastic force at the same time, and this elastic force
It will push the nine blades in nine different attack directions, causing damage to surrounding enemies.
This also means that this kind of mechanical grenade must be released in mid-air to achieve the best lethality, and the release time must be accurately calculated to ensure that there are no errors, otherwise this weapon is likely to cause injury to the user.
or oneself.
"I just don't know how powerful it is?" Although this mechanical grenade was completely produced according to Leo's design, Leo, as the designer, could not estimate the power of this grenade because he was missing the most important one.
Data, that is, how strong the elastic force of the special spring can be.
When making grenades, Leo once tested the strength of a special spring. Although the strength of this spring was much greater than the similar mechanical springs of the Earth Federation, it was also much less strength than he expected.
However, this is only the result of a single part test and cannot be used as a final evaluation of spring elasticity, because judging from the content recorded in the book, the mechanical parts of the dream world will vary depending on the number of parts combined, materials, operating structures, etc.
Factors produce extraordinary kinetic energy of different sizes.
The current strength of this kind of special spring may only be slightly stronger than that of ordinary springs, but if it is placed in other mechanical devices, then the strength it produces may be due to this extraordinary kinetic energy characteristic that Leo cannot estimate.
strength, so Leo now wants to find a target that can use this mechanical grenade.
Just as Leo put away the mechanical grenade with a special leather bag and hung it on the bullet belt at his waist, while his mind was searching for a suitable target, a rhythmic knocking sound came from the small window of the attic secret room, followed immediately by
