Chapter 15: The S-Class Disaster
The Occult Research Center's organizational structure is very unique, and in order to ensure safety, Lu Yiming is usually only able to meet one or two direct leaders. Emergent tasks are promulgated by these immediate leaders.
In addition, he was also able to meet his teammates on the same team, namely Jin Lili and Zhong Peng, and the remote communication was with an unknown operator.
As for the rest of the colleagues, they are basically invisible.
Standing in front of him was a man about thirty-five or sixteen years old, Ding Yuan, who was also one of the general directors of the entire research institute.
"You have to understand...... This is done to ensure everyone's safety and avoid the risk of being caught up in some supernatural event. ”
"The enemy we are fighting against is not humans, but supernatural events, including some monsters that have appeared inexplicably. There are many things that cannot be prevented, some paranormal events can spread along the social networks of people, and some can even affect people's memories......"
"Therefore, a single-threaded architecture that does not meet each other is the best way to manage it. Even if one line is polluted, it only affects one. ”
"I hope you understand that."
Lu Yiming nodded hurriedly, he didn't care what the organizational structure here was.
It's also good to be cautious enough, at least to some level of safety.
Dr. Ding continued, "There is also a research mission, which requires regular blood draws and experiments, and we need the help of superpowers if we want to solve the mysteries of superpowers. Especially about you...... Is it really impossible to promote a method that can improve mental resistance? ”
"I'm sorry, but I think it's a personal talent......"
Lu Yiming trembled violently, in fact, he also knew in his heart that this ability could be used by himself, and it was impossible for others to learn it.
“……”
Dr. Ding had to give up for the time being. At present, everything about superpowers has not even been solidified, and it is indeed too difficult to completely crack it.
The two sides were in a small room and talked for a long time, roughly the basic tasks of the work, as well as some precautions.
For example, Lu Yifan will not be able to disclose information about superpowers at will in the future, and he must keep everything about the institute secret from the public, including his relatives and friends, and he cannot disclose it. Otherwise, it is a serious violation and may be imprisoned.
It is also not allowed to use superpowers in front of the public, causing panic in the nature of the group.
Basic communication equipment, such as mobile phones and computers, cannot be purchased on their own, but use special mobile phones issued by the Institute, and the software used in them can only be downloaded from the whitelist software in the database......
Anyway, there are a lot of regulations!
"The latest Warwick Sapphire Mate999!"
Hearing that the right to use the mobile phone was restricted, Lu Yiming was a little unhappy at first, but when he saw this limited edition mobile phone, his eyes immediately lit up. As a digital enthusiast, this kind of high-configuration mobile phone is not necessarily impossible to buy if you have money.
In addition, the whitelist software in the database is very complete, basically all the products on the market are available, watching live broadcasts, playing games are no problem, except for some small butter that can't be played, the basic functions are readily available.
There is actually nothing wrong with this, if you want to watch a blockbuster, you can just run to the Internet to watch it through the way of mind possession.
After understanding these questions, Lu Yiming asked again: "Dr. Ding, how many front-line staff are there in our institute?" ”
"There are more than 100 superpowers in total, and most of the staff are ordinary people, almost more than 4,000."
"So little?"
"Not a lot, you count the proportion of one in 100,000. A hundred people have a total population of more than 10 million, and there are many superpowers who have not discovered their superpowers at all. The abilities are so weak that even they don't know about them. ”
Lu Yiming nodded, and asked again, "I have the right to know more things now, right?" Can you tell us more about the so-called ferry tickets and other things? ”
Talking about this, Ding Yuan's face became serious.
He was silent for a moment and said, "For general common sense, you can find it yourself in the database software that comes with your phone. I'm going to focus on the ship ticket here, which is related to an S-class disaster, which is a prophecy issued by the superpower in the institute, 'Zero'......"
"S-Class Disaster...... Prophecy? ”
Hearing this term, Lu Yiming's pupils dilated and he held his breath.
He still doesn't know how influential the so-called S-class disaster is...... But he knew that the monsters he encountered in the stairwell were only C-3 level.
From Dr. Ding's narration, Lu Yiming learned about the classification of supernatural disasters.
Class E, which refers to a paranormal event that is largely harmless, is not widespread and can be easily resolved.
For example, a bottle of Coke that can trigger human laziness will only be affected when the body comes into contact with Coke.
If you put on leather gloves and touch the Coke, there will be no reaction, so this supernatural event can be easily resolved.
E-class paranormal events are mostly similar and do not affect many people.
As long as it is detected early, it can be solved early.
From the D level onwards, the level of danger and the difficulty of handling skyrockets. D-class paranormal events are dangerous and may cause human death, but they are not very transmissible and can be easily handled.
"For example, some mutated beasts, as long as they don't evolve extraordinary intelligence. Even if these beasts have superpowers, a bullet will solve the problem, and if it doesn't work, just a rocket launcher. ”
No matter what, a D-class supernatural event, the level of threat can be controlled.
Even, there are some supernatural life forms that have the possibility of being tamed!
"For example, some cats and dogs used to get along with humans in harmony, and as long as they didn't lose control of their minds, they could be tamed. However, there is no such kind of supernatural life form in our laboratory. ”
Ding Yuan said: "There is a special research institute branch for domesticating living supernatural life, and our research direction in Yunhai City is mainly to study strange things, not this kind of living body. ”
Lu Yiming nodded.
As for C-class paranormal events, they can be dealt with at a cost of casualties and are often contagious.
For example, in the stairwell that Lu Yiming experienced, the monsters hiding inside were transmitted through the image of big eyes and a special sound. Humans who have been exposed to these mediums will be attacked indiscriminately.
If left unchecked, the population will be very wide!
Moreover, this kind of accident is difficult to deal with, and it can often only be solved through certain sacrifices.
Like Lu Yiming, it is a small probability event, so he was defined as a "potential talent" by the research institute and was specially recruited here.
The difficulty of dealing with B-class disasters has risen to a new level, and even conventional weapons such as bombs have no way to solve it, and this kind of supernatural disaster often requires relatively high casualties before it can be dealt with, and even nuclear bombs must be used to destroy an area on a large scale.
"There have been many B-class disasters on Earth, and if you are interested, you can go to the archives and look up some of the materials. The weirdness of the B-grade event is comparable to that of a horror blockbuster! Fortunately, these disasters were finally resolved satisfactorily. ”
Ding Yuan was a little embarrassed when he talked about these things.
Lu Yiming swallowed.
He was actually a little scared and a little curious.
