Heroic Spirit Transformation System 2
Chapter 175
Chapter 175: Fake Wine
For this technical terminology, Nanaya did not use the Japanese translation, but used the original word hmunculus.
Hmunculus, an alchemical term, Homunculus, the word structure is the Latin word "human" hmo+ which means the reduced suffix -culus, generally translated as artificial man, artificial life, artificial life, etc.
The earliest production method that can be traced back to the 15th century is a book called "Denaturarerum" (Natural Essence), written by Paracelsus.
In this book, Paracelsus described an experiment that could create a little man in a flask who knew everything in the world. This was the origin of the name "little man in the flask" in later generations.
It can be said that when mentioning Paracelsus, in addition to his achievements in medicine, the two most impressive associated words are the Philosopher's Stone and artificial humans.
...Although the world view of Xingyue seems to be that artificial people and artificial life forms are not the same thing, when it comes to Paracelsus, artificial people are more convenient to understand. If you want to talk about artificial life forms, people will still be confused about Paracelsus.
Why don't you even use the iconic words you wrote in the book?
Anyway, as long as it is an artificially created thing that is infused with life, it will definitely be fine to use the word hmunculus to describe it.
If you had previously accepted that this person is "that" Paracelsus, you should actually be prepared for the fact that the other party can create the Philosopher's Stone and artificial humans. The question is -
"...Is this an artificial human?"
Among all the people present, the researchers were the most unreasonable to change sides, and asked Qiye with a fanatical attitude of pursuing the truth: "Now it looks like just a puddle of shapeless liquid! How long will it take to become artificial?"
Where are the people?”
"It seems that the formula you used before was not the formula in "Natural Essence"? That is too outrageous..."
"Don't you need to 'inject life'? There is also the process of imitating the pregnancy of the womb..."
Qiye felt ashamed.
It can only be said that Paracelsus was right when he called them "children". Their enthusiasm in disregarding the orders of the black organization was very much like a mad scientist.
"...No, when it comes to injecting life into it, it uses magic power."
Everyone: "…………?"
Huh? Aren’t we talking about science? Why did we suddenly go back a few centuries and enter metaphysics...
"Part of ancient alchemy was indeed successful at that time... However, as time goes by, the magic power in the atmosphere becomes less and less, and it is impossible to restore the experiment. There is nothing we can do about it being regarded as deceiving the world and stealing the name."
Qiye returned to his old profession of telling lies with open eyes.
"Furthermore, it does take time to cultivate hmunculus, but if there is only one like this, it's okay to speed it up a little."
Qiye was actually a bit lazy this time.
The hmunculus made this time is different from the hmunculus used to fight and protect Conan in the castle.
The previous ones were ones that he actually spent a long time cultivating little by little. After all, the situation was not urgent at the time. He just wanted a nanny and would like to study whether he could condense them and take them away - ethical matters.
Let's not discuss it, magicians have no conscience... But in short, the hmunculus created before has a long shelf life.
And now this one... Anyway, it's just this one. I simply relied on the magic costume I just made, enhanced it to assist the magic ritual, and accelerated the time. It's a quick product. The shelf life is a bit short, but it will last.
24 hours should be about the same.
While everyone was talking, the indescribable object on the ground had already swelled and stood up. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed that it did not comply with the conservation of matter... It was clear that there was less than half a flask of liquid before!
It even grew legs and arms, and as time went by, it looked closer and closer to the human form.
The direction of the door was blocked by this unknown white object that was getting bigger and bigger. After discovering that the bullets were ineffective, Gin, who judged the density from the sound of the rebounding bullets, did not want to go up and test how hard it was.
Anyway, it seems that the other party doesn't want to kill them at the moment. Let's wait and see. Even vodka has this level of judgment.
The three people, who were not related to the researchers, watched in silence the scene before them that looked like a science fiction movie. In fact, they all secretly pinched themselves more than once. Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, they could not wake up from their dreams.
The voices ringing in my ears were also full of unscientific content.
"Mr. Paracelsus! Does magic really exist?!"
"So alchemy turns out not to be pure fantasy!"
"Have we always underestimated past data... It's unbelievable!"
Like a real teacher, Qiye patiently answered a few questions and then asked: "Which of you has a mobile phone?"
The researchers shook their heads in silence.
Probably because they were afraid that they would leak what was happening in the laboratory, their cell phones would be kept outside when they entered the laboratory.
So Qiye turned his attention to the three wines with code names.
Hmunculus, who was relatively close to them and almost cornered them, stretched out his hand to them.
It looks like it's more than two meters tall, right? The proportions of its body are very weird. It could be a guest appearance in a horror movie. Being "looked down" by such a terrifying thing, the three bottles of wine were silent for a moment.
"...brother?"
Vodka could live in the morgue for a year and a half, and he could kill people mercilessly, but he still gave up in the face of such a weird picture that was beyond his cognitive ability.
Normal people will become timid when faced with the unpredictable unknown.
After all, the scariest thing is the unknown.
Gin held on firmly, and the previous wavering had been firmly taken back. Now he still looked like the familiar cold-faced handsome man who held the reins of the winery: "Give it to him."
"Oh." Vodka obediently handed over his mobile phone.
After all, compared to Gin who can directly communicate with the boss, and Bourbon, who is an intelligence guy, Vodka is more of an assistant partner, so the things on his phone are safer than both of them.
The white artificial life used its long arms to pass the phone to Qiye over the heads of the researchers. Like a big brother, a huge shadow hit the faces of the people below, bringing an indescribable sense of oppression.
Some researchers touched it without fear of death, while others could not accept that there was magic in this world and fell into isolation.
Qiye got the phone: "What's the password?"
The mobile phone has been handed in, is there still a password left? Vodka obediently reported a series of numbers.
Gin hasn’t given up yet!
He has been thinking about ways to break the situation - even if normal people have basically given up treatment when faced with this crazy and irrational scene, he is still persisting, trying to get control back to his side.
"Do you want to contact the boss?" Gin looked at Qiye coldly, "The phone does not have the boss's contact information, and the boss will not let one or two hostages -"
"Hello? It's me." Qiye has already answered the phone, "Well, sorry, it's different from the plan. I made a little decision on my own... Ah, yes, the agreed code - Holmes's disciple."
Gin: "...?"
Who is this guy calling?
"You are so cautious. You told me not to worry about my... location. I was blindfolded when I came here, but based on the stars I saw before I came in, I probably am in a forest at this location..."
Vodka: "......???Can the stars be judged to such a detailed level?"
"Well, Paracelsus is also a famous astrologer... Plus, magic." Fangtani Rei struggled to spit out this unscientific word, "It's not impossible to achieve this level...
"
"If you want to be more detailed..." Qiye, who was on the phone, looked at Fang Gu Ling.
Fangtani Rei was not as entangled as Gin. He judged that the person Qiye contacted must be a good person, so he readily reported his address.
"Hey, Bourbon!"
"I'm an intelligence officer. Being punched by something like that is no joke. Besides, he knows magic. I really want to know if there are any solutions. I think it's better to tell him directly." Fangtani Reimen pretended to be weak.
He explained calmly, "No matter who comes, at least there is some progress. Isn't it better than staying here with this kind of thing all the time?"
"…………"
Qiye communicated the situation with Conan and then hung up the phone.
"Well, you may need to take a nap next time."
Qiye held a mobile phone in one hand and supported the experimental table with the other, and said words that seemed to be a real shady story. At first glance, an uninformed person would think that the others were weak, pitiful, and helpless innocent victims captured by Frankenstein.
Gin quietly tightened his grip on the gun.
Cooperation is fine, but if he loses consciousness and completely hands over the initiative to others, then forget it.
According to the information submitted by Bourbon before, this guy had deployed a particularly efficient drug on the airship... but there were no sealed test tubes on the table?
Out of caution, Gin held his breath and then fainted.
Rei Fukiya, who was the first to come into contact with the information about drug addiction, of course held his breath, but he was stunned for a moment when he noticed that Gin who had done the same thing as him still fainted.
In less than three seconds, only Fangtani Rei and Qiye were still awake in the entire underground.
"Don't hold your breath...I didn't use drugs."
Seven nights of comfort bring the valley to zero.
Jiang Guling was not comforted at all, because unknown methods were more dangerous to him.
"I used drugs before because there were too many ordinary people present... Now that my identity has been exposed, of course I will not use such troublesome methods again." Qiye explained.
Jianggu Ling: “…………”
Is drug use a troublesome method for you...
The public security policeman's mental endurance was not limited. He quickly adjusted his mentality and asked: "So, what do you want to do by leaving me behind? Mr. Paracelsus?"
"Don't be so nervous." Qiye put down Vodka's cell phone, "I have no malice towards you... just like you have always had no malice towards me."
"...What do you mean?" Fangtani Ling vaguely felt something was wrong, "You don't like being pointed at a gun, right? I'm the first person to do this. Are you sure I don't have any ill intentions towards you?"
"Well, do you still need to hide it after everything is like this? The FBI will be here soon..." Qiye pondered, "I thought you would take advantage of this opportunity and call your people here."
Jiang Guling: "...?!"
——His identity as a fake drinker has been exposed?! Don’t tell him this is also astrology!
The author has something to say: I am still not feeling well, but I will try my best to wrap up the world of Conan in the next chapter! This is really too long!!!
After all, he was also the first alchemist to create artificial human beings. Qiye doesn’t use such a fashionable word as artificial life form. Let’s just use artificial human. You just need to know the difference.
