Their commission was suspicious.

Would you like to try some?

"Shouldn't we stop? Chen Luo said that Paradise Coins shouldn't be consumed too often, otherwise there will be side effects," Wilvi said.

"There are definitely side effects, but it can also be refreshing. Speaking of which, Chen Luo, how many Paradise Coins do you have left?" Dr. Mei collected all the coins, put them in a bag, and then patted Chen Luo, who was discussing something with Alicia.

"Huh? Paradise Coins? Oh, there are about 1000 left. What's wrong? But this includes all the Paradise Coins that can be exchanged. By the way, Mei, didn't you say you wanted to develop Paradise Coins into weapons? How's the progress?" Chen Luo asked.

“1000 Paradise Gold Coins… Ah, the development progress is not bad.” Dr. Mei was initially thinking about what could be achieved if all 1000 Paradise Gold Coins were made into weapons, but she came back to her senses after hearing Chen Luo’s later question.

What does "good enough" mean?

"Come with me, I'll show you." Dr. Mei said, then led Chen Luo to another room.

Velvi was very interested in the appearance of the new weapon and wanted to know what weapon Dr. May had developed on her own while she was away.

Pado became frightened upon hearing the weapon's name and then pulled Hua back to the dormitory.

Although Hua was Chen Luo's bodyguard, there was no need to worry about Chen Luo's safety within the Moth of Fire, especially since Chen Luo had Alicia, Velvi, and even Kevin accompanying Mei.

Now, Hua's main job is to be Chen Luo's personal assistant.

Of course, Hua never slacked off in his combat training. Although this kind of life was somewhat monotonous, Hua felt very fulfilled.

Chen Luo, Alicia, and Vervi were led by Mei into a laboratory not far away. Inside the laboratory, besides a pistol openly displayed, there was a prisoner in prison clothes sitting in a chair, struggling frantically.

"Human experimentation...?"

“Strictly speaking, yes, but this weapon doesn’t actually cause death. It was first used on animals many times before death row inmates were chosen for more accurate experiments,” Dr. Mei said.

Human experimentation has always been inhumane, regardless of whether it takes place in a harsh post-apocalyptic environment. However, if the person being experimented on is not considered human and makes a significant contribution to saving the world, then it's a different story.

Moreover, this weapon is indeed not lethal; it can't even kill a rat.

"A weapon that won't kill?" Velvi asked, somewhat surprised.

Could it be a weapon that is similar in function to the weapon I developed?

The first few Divine Keys developed by Velvi were more like tools than weapons.

It's not that they have no offensive capabilities at all; after all, the Second Divine Sword's locomotive could kill people, and the Fourth Divine Key falling from the sky could indeed kill people... But some of the weapons developed by Velvi are not offensive in nature.

"To be precise, they won't even get hurt. Enough said, let's see for ourselves." Dr. Mei said, picking up a pistol from the table not far from the prisoner handcuffed to the chair, and then aiming it at the annoying man.

The prisoner, witnessing this scene, was struggling desperately. Despite his numerous crimes, he still wanted to live. However, he was still just an ordinary person and therefore unable to break free of his restraints.

Kevin, standing to the side, didn't offer to replace May or anything like that. This was because the nature of these specially made bullets was indeed somewhat strange.

Chen Luo looked at Dr. Mei, who was holding a gun in one hand and pointing it at the death row inmate, and a sentence suddenly popped into his mind—

【Red Iris Immortal, I didn't lie】

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out.

At a distance of 20 centimeters, even a novice can accurately hit the opponent's head.

With the help of a high-speed camera, Vervi saw that the bullet struck the death row inmate instantly after leaving the barrel, but did not cause him any fatal injury.

Because when the bullet comes into contact with the condemned prisoner and is forced into his body, it instantly melts into a special substance, which seeps into the prisoner's body like a liquid.

The death row inmate, who had been struggling violently, suddenly became blank-eyed.

Dr. Mei then put down his gun, took out a button, and pressed it. The restraints on the death row inmate instantly dissipated, and the inmate stood up and walked directly south. However, to the inmate's south was a wall.

But even after hitting a wall, the death row inmate did not turn back. Instead, he walked south with unwavering determination, as if he had a bug in the system.

Dr. Mei ignored the man and instead unloaded the bullets from the pistol, displaying the gleaming yellow bullets to everyone.

"These are bullets made from Paradise Coins. During our research, we discovered that these Paradise Coins are compatible. When two Paradise Coins are placed together and squeezed, they gradually fuse together while retaining the size of a single coin."

"The two bullets remaining in the magazine are each made from five Paradise Coins. The bullet from before was made from a single coin."

"Moreover, these bullets were made using the Soul Steel manufacturing method, and instructions were also engraved inside the bullets while the Paradise Gold Coins were being cast into them."

"The inspiration for this comes from the fact that when you hit a creature with a Paradise Coin bullet that has not been programmed with commands, its consciousness will go blank for a moment, and it will obey the first sound it hears. Even animals can follow the instructions perfectly, as if they can understand human speech."

"So we wondered what if we engraved instructions inside the bullet? And that's what happened."

Dr. Mei took the bullet and began to explain to Chen Luo and the others how to use it.

"When a person is hit by a bullet, if there is no information recorded in the bullet, they will become dazed, but if there is information recorded, they will act according to the instructions in the bullet."

"Will this state continue indefinitely?" Velvi asked.

After Wilvi asked that question, the death row inmate who had been banging his head against the wall suddenly stopped moving and collapsed to the ground.

"Obviously not. This situation will only last for a while."

"Ah!!!" The prisoner suddenly screamed, as if he had just woken from a terrifying nightmare. After struggling to his feet again, he was stunned for a moment before his eyes flashed with ferocity, and then he lunged at the crowd standing there.

Clearly, if this death row inmate were allowed to get close to Dr. Mei, something bad might happen.

"Bang!" The head of the death row inmate, who had just been so aggressive, made intimate contact with the ground the next moment, and he immediately lost consciousness.

But what is even more obvious is that when Kevin stands next to Dr. May, no one can harm Dr. May.

"So that means this bullet can't kill even at close range, but it can implant an instruction into the target? This Paradise Coin is amazing!" Velvi exclaimed in surprise.

“That’s right, so we named these bullets made from gold coins engraved with commands—Hypnotic Bullets,” Dr. May said, holding up a bullet.

"..." Everyone was amazed by the magic of the hypnotic bullet, but Chen Luo, the creator of the Paradise Coins, kept shifting his gaze between the death row inmate and the bullet, his expression extremely complicated.

You think you're so great, so high and mighty, using soul energy as a hypnotic tool!

Chen Luo felt that he had been at odds with the word "hypnosis" lately!

Chapter 1752 Alicia: On the Possibility of Making Herrschers Teammates

The principle behind using Paradise Coins to create hypnotic bullets is actually quite simple. Although Dr. Mei and her team may not have immediately grasped the concept of soul-type energy, their research revealed its essence: nourishing the soul.

And what is most important for nourishing the soul? Most importantly, it is being able to enter the soul!

Once soul-type energy is absorbed into the soul, it will transform into energy to nourish the soul. However, if there is any hidden agenda involved in this soul-type energy during the process, then there will be big trouble.

To put it mildly, it's a blurring of consciousness; to put it more seriously, it's a permanent alteration of a person's soul.

Therefore, using amusement park coins as bullets to attack will cause the victim to fall into a period of confusion. When the person in the confusion hears the first instruction, they will subconsciously and instinctively follow it.

This is because the essence of Paradise Coins is that when the soul energy collides with the other person's soul, it causes the other person's consciousness to go blank.

Actually, there's nothing wrong with this attack method. In fact, the fact that Qiankun Yizhi's attack attribute changed from physical to soul attack after using Paradise Coins is precisely due to this trait.

But Dr. May's most ingenious trick was that she used the method of making Soul Steel to turn Paradise Coins into bullets.

Although it is called Soul Steel, it has nothing to do with the soul; it is essentially nanorobots.

However, precisely because of this, Soul Steel can also be used to store data.

Therefore, it is still possible to use a series of complex processes to modify Paradise Coins by manufacturing Soul Steel, so as to engrave simple commands into Paradise Coins.

However, this will indeed result in a significant loss of Paradise Coins.

However, compared to the losses, the effect of using Paradise Coins to modify bullets is quite outstanding.

It will quickly implant the simple instructions contained within the Paradise Coins into the other person's soul.

However, this is not a permanent effect, because the amount of soul energy in a Paradise Coin is too small to completely rewrite the other person's soul.

In addition, some people are born with special characteristics and have higher soul resistance than ordinary people, so bullets forged with Paradise Coins can at most be used as a means of strong control.

Moreover, the higher the opponent's soul and mental strength, the shorter the duration of the strong control.

“I understand more or less, but I have a question,” Alicia asked, raising her hand.

"What's the problem?"

"Why does your description of the gold coin bullets sound more and more like Aponia's? Since Aponia's ability called Discipline is similar to Paradise Gold Coins, wouldn't it be a waste to forge Paradise Gold Coins into bullets?" Alicia asked.

Alicia knew that Paradise Coins could be used as supplements without any instructions being written into them, just like Mei had done earlier.

“Ellie, the biggest difference between weapons and people is that the former can be mass-produced, while the latter cannot. Moreover, the range of bullets is much greater than that of the laws of Aponia,” May explained.

“Indeed.” Chen Luo couldn’t help but nod.

Moreover, Mei's research findings are quite excellent tools for adventurers in the park.

Every adventurer in Paradise will have Paradise Coins, it's just a matter of how many... and whether the other party is willing to use Paradise Coins.

The adventurers at Paradise can modify Paradise Coins and inscribe commands into them much more easily than Mei and her group; they can simply have the group network do it for them.

This way, the loss of Paradise Coin bullets will be minimal.

However, if you hit an enemy's head with a regular bullet, you can also blow their head off in one shot. Therefore, Paradise Coin Bullets are only suitable for attacking monsters and "monsters" that cannot be killed by firearms.

The former refers to monsters in a broad sense, while the latter refers to humans or other creatures that are terrifyingly powerful.

Mei's research is equivalent to transforming every Paradise Coin into a miniature Herrscher of Knowledge power.

Moreover, once a large number of Paradise Coins are piled up, the bullets fired may not necessarily be worse than those fired by the Herrscher of Knowledge himself.

After all, there is a limit to the number of people who can understand the laws of nature, but there is no limit to the amount of Paradise Coins you can use; it just depends on how rich you are.

However, if you really want to kill your opponent, a small amount of Paradise Coins is enough, because in a battle between experts, even a moment of distraction can be fatal. At the same time, Paradise Coins, as a type of soul energy, can ignore most defenses.

Congratulations to the amusement park! Adventurers now have another major source of gold coins to spend.

"But Lolo probably doesn't have many Paradise Coins, right? Wasn't it only 1000?" Alicia asked another question.

“That’s right, so Paradise Coins shouldn’t be used lightly. Compared to Aponia’s commandments, the bullets made from Paradise Coins are less effective, but it would be a bit difficult for Aponia, a psychic-sensory fusion warrior, to go to the battlefield,” May said.

"In addition to having an effect similar to Aponia's Discipline ability, this bullet made from Paradise Coins has another effect that we haven't yet figured out what its purpose is," Dr. May said.

"What effect?"

"You should see for yourself. This is a bullet made from five Paradise coins, with no commands inscribed inside." After loading the bullet, Dr. May pointed the gun at the death row inmate who was being attacked by Kevin's icy aura.

"boom!"

The bullet was fired, but it still had no killing power.

However, after being momentarily dazed, the death row inmate who had been hit simply stood in front of everyone without making any move, even after Kevin released his hands and feet. His eyes remained calm and undisturbed.

“This is…” Alicia was not quite sure what was going on.

"I don't know. In our ongoing research, we've discovered that if the Paradise Coin bullets that hit prisoners contain more than 5 Paradise Coins, they fall into this state, this sage state, which is quite strange. Moreover, injecting these five Paradise Coins into the opponent's body in batches can also produce this effect, as if a person can only withstand a maximum of 5."

“When the other party enters this sage state, their memories are not affected in any way, and their likes and dislikes remain unchanged. The only change is their attitude towards life, as if they have taken everything in stride. In this state, they are extremely cooperative with the interrogation of the Fire Moth, and unexpectedly, some strange information has been unearthed. The Poisonous Chrysalis is constantly applying for these bullets to use as interrogation tools,” Dr. Mei said with a strange expression.

Dr. Mei's expression was rather strange, because he still couldn't figure out the underlying principle, while Chen Luo, whose expression went unnoticed by others, had an even stranger one.

Because Chen Luo knew why this happened.

A doll that had been partially turned into a doll after drinking orange juice was shot with five Paradise Coin bullets and forcibly turned back into a doll.

Chen Luo's puppet member added 1

After becoming Chen Luo's puppets, they naturally lost their worldly desires; all they wanted now was to die quickly and return to Paradise.

But they won't die unless Chen Luo orders them to.

Yes, it's that outrageous.

The principle is that Paradise Coins have a personification effect. People like Dr. May who eat one a day to stay alert may not have much effect, because an average person can digest 10 Paradise Coins a day.

However, if you eat 10 at once, you will be affected by the irreversible effects of becoming a doll.

Humans from the pre-civilization era were even more advanced, as each person was a preparatory doll. Therefore, as long as they ate five Paradise Coins, they would instantly be transformed into a doll and completely become a doll.

Hmm, let's include this usage method in the list of how to use Paradise Coins.

If adventurers in the park encounter enemies they cannot defeat, they can use this extremely wasteful method of turning the enemy into their own side.

Join if you can't.

But it's not about joining the other party, it's about getting the other party to join you.

However, dealing with ordinary people requires at least 20 Paradise Coins (consuming 10 Paradise Coins will cause the user to begin turning into a puppet; instant puppetization requires 20-30 Paradise Coins, depending on individual constitution. However, people from previous civilizations were severely affected, so this is not considered a normal situation). When dealing with powerful individuals, the cost of Paradise Coins could increase exponentially.

The method has been given to the adventurers in the amusement park; it remains to be seen whether they will be willing to use it.

"In short, Paradise Coins seem to have many uses. There's even a theory that if you instantly inject a Herrscher with enough Paradise Coins, is it possible to turn them into your own people?" Dr. Mei said.

"Don't look at me, I don't know." Chen Luo shook his head when he saw Dr. Mei looking at him.

"It's a pity the Eighth Herrscher is already dead, otherwise we could have used her for experiments." Dr. Mei sighed.
