Chapter 19: The Source of Strength (Part II)

Robin had roughly figured out the surname of this enchantress in several contacts with Leona, and knowing that this enchantress did what she said, he asked straight to the point, "What did you inject me?" ”

"H2 potion."

"H2 potion? What does it do? ”

"Stimulates neuronal activity." Leona glanced at Robin, who looked confused, and explained in detail: "Nerve fibers transmit information to neurons through bioelectrical impulses, and the neurons produce corresponding physiological responses. Therefore, the mobility of the human body is maintained by neurons. When you repair your own injuries, the activity of cells in your body increases to about ten times that of ordinary people, and the energy generated by cell division accumulates in your body, if you don't use it, this part of the energy will be converted into heat and dissipated in vain, so I inject you with H2 medicine to use this part of the energy to enhance the activity of neurons, so as to stimulate your physical potential. ”

"But why am I in so much pain? Damn, I felt like my muscles were about to be torn apart when I was unconscious. ”

"That's of course, it's the price you have to pay to get the most out of your body. Overly intense neuronal activity boosts the bioelectrical impulses within your nerve fibers, so your body reaches its limits almost instantaneously under the control of your nerves. As a result, tears are inevitable. But because this burst of excitation has reached the requirement of unlocking the genetic lock, your body absorbs the energy accumulated in your body on its own and reorganizes your damaged **. Speaking of this, Leona paused: "Of course, if it weren't for the hospital's treatment at all costs, you might have been a cripple by now, but the worst result didn't happen, and you got the power you wanted." ”

“……”

Hearing that he was almost crippled, Robin's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"This free resource doesn't have to be used for nothing, I don't think I did anything wrong, and besides, you get what you want. So, what right do you have to accuse me? Leona stared at Robin condescendingly.

"Okay...... Even if you're doing the right thing. But......" Robin avoided Leona's gaze, "but you should at least tell me the details before you do it, I have a right to know, it's part of our deal." ”

"The right to know?" Leona sneered disdainfully: "I told you that you don't understand." ”

"Then you should explain it to me until I understand!" Robin stubbornly said angrily: "I'm not a person who likes to be manipulated, maybe in your opinion, a little person like me doesn't need to have any ideas at all." But that's just your idea! ”

“……”

Robin's tone was resolute, which surprised Leona. She realized that she seemed to have misjudged Robin's surname, and that the man in front of her was far more stubborn than she had thought.

There was silence for a long time.

Robin's insistence finally made Leona choose to back down slightly, she moved a chair and sat down in front of Robin, and said with a twist of hair, "Okay, I can tell you the details, but I'll only explain it once, as for whether you can understand it, that's not in my consideration." ”

"Okay!" Leona's concession made Robin breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, in fact, he also knew that with Leona's strength, if he forcibly wanted to do any experiments on himself, he would not be able to resist at all. And he felt unwilling to give up his cooperation with Leona completely, he didn't want to give up this shortcut to becoming stronger, even if it was so dangerous. Therefore, he wanted to find a balance between the two, and he didn't want to put all the initiative in Leona's hands, at least, not completely fall into Leona's experimental tools.

"I wonder what you mean when you say cell division produces energy?" Robin held his breath and stared at Leona intently, knowing that he could not miss a word from Leona in the rest of the day.

"Where does the power come from? Most people think that strength comes through exercise, but why does exercise produce strength? Can you answer me? Leona didn't directly ask Robin's question, but threw it back in front of Robin in a different way.

"This ......," Robin stammered, not knowing what to say, as he suddenly realized that he really didn't know why constant exercise produced strength.

"In fact, exercise is nothing more than developing the efficiency of the body's use of strength, and power has always existed in the human body." Leona paused for a moment and continued, "There are all kinds of cells in the human body, and these cells are constantly dividing every second of every day. Divide until the cell dies, and in this process, the cell continues to divide to produce energy. These energies are usually accumulated in our bodies, and if we do not consciously absorb them, they will evaporate quickly. ”

"Just like heat?" Robin seemed to be starting to understand something.

"Heat is also a type of energy, and it is indeed a part of the energy that is volatilized by the body." Leona nodded and said in detail: "Through exercise, the impurities in the muscle fibers can be continuously squeezed out, so that they can continuously absorb the residual energy in the body, so as to improve the efficiency of the body's use of these energy. When the energy absorbed by the body reaches a saturated state, or the residual energy in the body can no longer meet the body's absorption needs, then the gene lock will open on its own. When the gene lock is opened, the gene pool is re-screened according to the current needs of the body, so as to speed up the rate of cell division and metabolism so that more energy can be created. ”

"Speeding up metabolism? That's not to say...... Will the lifespan be shortened as a result? Robin was shocked when he heard this.

"Theoretically, and the first generation of astronauts did produce such examples, their lifespans were generally greatly reduced due to the rapid squeezing of their vitality. However, as we who inherited the genes of the first generation of astronauts, this problem no longer exists. For us, every opening of the gene lock is a new life, so only when we can no longer shake the gene lock can we accurately calculate our physiological life limit. ”

"And where does the energy come from? I mean...... If the human body's demand is constantly increasing according to the law of conservation of energy, then where does the energy generated by cell division come from? ”

"Eating, breathing, light, etc., ......"

As she mentioned the topic that Leona was interested in, her eyes suddenly flashed with a frenzied look, and she explained with a short breath: "The world we live in is the world of the elements, and when our steps are limited to the earth, what we obey is the law of conservation of energy on the earth. And when we come to space, then the wider elemental world of space gives us a richer energy base, and the energy that the body can absorb is no longer comparable to that of the earth. ”

"......" Robin's mind couldn't keep up, and he lowered his head, gritting his teeth and trying to figure out the meaning of Leona's words.

Seeing Robin's appearance, Leona also knew that it was beyond Robin's comprehension to continue, so she chuckled and said, "You have the unique 'subtle' ability in the world, so you should be better at discovering the mystery than anyone else. When your perception and computing skills reach a certain level, you will find that your body is not as mysterious as you think, and you can even digitize your power and accurately calculate the distance to the next level. ”

"You can even do something like this?" Leona's words made Robin lose her mouth in surprise.

"Of course, I can do that."

"So the neurons you talked about earlier ......"

"Nerves control the various organs and bodies of the body, and they form a complex network within the body. As a reading system, nerves are controlled by the brain and are based on the bioelectric impulses flowing through the nerves, which are commonly referred to as mental powers. When our brain domain is developed, what we gain is stronger and stronger mental power. Leona pointed to her head: "What I did before was to stimulate your brain nerves with drugs, so that your brain is overloaded with bioelectric impulses, and in a short period of time, your nerves have more mental power than your body can bear." ”

"Then the pain during my coma was ......"

"This can squeeze out terrifying power in an instant, but your body tissue will also be destroyed because it can't withstand the force. However, the medical equipment here is enough to treat you who have lost almost all of your bodily functions, and the memory that your body carries will remember the strongest power of that moment and preserve it. So, when your body recovers, you become stronger before you know it. At this point, Leona spread her hands: "That's what I'm all about this experiment. ”

"I ......" Robin opened his mouth, but the amount of information instilled in this moment was completely beyond his comprehension, and his mind suddenly became quite dull, and he didn't even know what he was going to say.

"I said it, I'll just explain it once."

Leona, who had expected Robin's appearance, smiled happily and left silently, leaving Robin alone in a silent daze.
