Soon, the experiment proceeded to the stage of medium-dose negative radiation.

"0:12:02, soul-related nodes, continuous slight movement, slight contamination of the soul, recorded!"

"0:13:25, viscera-related nodes, continuous slight movements, flesh atrophy, organ failure, recorded!"

……

"0:14:01, vital signs are weak, but conscious, recorded!"

……

The medium-dose negative energy radiation lasted only 4 minutes, and Matt in the protective circle changed his whole body, his hair fell out, his dry skin clung to his bones, and his flesh and blood seemed to disappear.

This level of negative energy invasion, in addition to the specially protected soul, the damage suffered by the physical body is already close to the elf's [Negative Energy Erosion] spell.

In other words, Matt at this moment, except for his soul that can barely be maintained, is almost a dead person.

And without the special protection of the soul in the laboratory, then he would almost be saved, and even if he died, he would not be able to be resurrected.

"Judge Matt, has your perception of the magic web changed now?"

"No, go on." Matt replied very briefly.

The voice was hoarse and gloomy, as if it had seeped out of hell, sending chills down the spine, and everyone present, including Xia Duo, couldn't help but frown deeply when they heard Matt's answer.

Obviously, the medium-dose negative energy radiation also failed to achieve the goal.

Do you need to increase the dose?

Xia Duo hesitated, in fact, with his current degree of control over negative energy, even if it was a medium dose of negative energy radiation, he could guarantee that when it was irradiated to the human body, it would not cause greater harm to the human body.

The problem was that he couldn't be sure if the cast level reduction was related to physical damage, or if it wasn't related.

As long as it can be determined that the dose of negative energy radiation has an effect on the perception of the magic net, the negative energy radiation range of subsequent experiments can be narrowed by analyzing the changes in the nodes linked between the human body and the magic net.

Step by step, it will eventually be possible to determine which kind of negative energy radiation is specifically aimed at the perception of the magic net.

It can be said that the experimenters in the early stage are almost certain to die.

Because when the high dose of negative energy radiation, even if the soul is specially protected, it will be more seriously polluted, and this will cause the volunteers participating in the experiment to be unable to resurrect.

……

At this moment, Xia Duo emotionally hoped that Matt would choose to give up, or even if he lied, he would suspend the experiment first.

As an intelligent life, human beings instinctively regret, regret, and resist the loss of their own lives.

Xia Duo is not arrogant enough to regard the humans in the projection plane as non-concentratous, even if they are virtual beings, their thoughts, emotions, will, and the perception and experience they bring to Xia Duo are real.

Emotionally speaking, it was really difficult for Xia Duo to accept the passing of a life that he admired and respected before his eyes.

But from a rational point of view, he also knew that such sacrifices were inevitable from the day the theory of "negative energy degradation" appeared.

The experiment is either self-led or someone else-led, and the difference is only that you have a higher morality that is real or hypocritical that you are not aware of, and that you are able to keep the sacrifice within acceptable limits.

The "negative energy degradation" experiment, similar to the human medical experiment on Earth, is inevitable.

We should be in awe and cautious about life, but we don't have to be too taboo about death, and the greatest respect for those who are sacrificed is to make their death worthwhile and let them die as they deserve.

……

After some psychological struggle, Xia Duo's mood calmed down a lot, and then he solemnly saluted Matt, and then increased the dose of negative energy radiation.

But unfortunately, reality often goes against people's wishes, under the high dose of negative energy radiation, Matt only lasted less than 15 seconds, and lost all his vital signs, including his soul, which was also polluted by negative energy, and slipped into the irretrievable abyss.

"Stop, let's go through the purification procedure. Gabriel, you inform Dean Bernie of the results of the experiment, and it is up to him to decide whether or not to conduct subsequent experiments. ”

With that, Xia Duo left the laboratory alone.

At this moment, his feelings were very complicated, before the crossing, he had heard many sacrifices, but he had never been so close to such an incident.

It is even said that the victim actually died at his own hands, and this experience brought a great shock to Xia Duo's heart.

If he was given a chance to choose again, he wasn't sure if he would insist on increasing the radiation dose, maybe he would, maybe not.

But now, with the life of a victim on his back, Xia Duo is even more difficult to give up on "negative energy de-escalation".

It would be hypocritical to say that it was all for Matt, who had already sacrificed, to continue his research, but Xia Duo did feel an indescribable sense of mission.

This sense of mission urged him to complete the "negative energy de-escalation" project.

……

Not surprisingly, Dean Bernie didn't choose to stop the experiment, but gave Xia Duo another list, which couldn't be more obvious.

"Vice Dean Samuel, don't worry about me. I've seen my companion die in front of me more than once, and now it's just one more, and I'm not so vulnerable! ”

After replying to Vice Dean Samuel's consoling message, Xia Duo made arrangements for the next experiment.

In fact, he had seen his so-called companions die in front of him before, but it was on the green plane, and those companions were not really close to him.

Through so far, the death that has brought Xia Duo's most shocking spiritual feeling is Matt, but he is indeed not as fragile as Samuel imagined, and he has experienced more things, so he will naturally be strong in his heart.

He's Chardo, and he's not really "McArd"!

……

Then, the experiment continued, and the sacrifices continued to increase.

The experiment did progress, but it was very little, and it was not until the appearance of the thirtieth volunteer that there was a breakthrough in the experiment-

After several adjustments to the negative energy radiation, the perception of the magic net finally took effect, and the thirtieth volunteer, an archmage from the Judgment Division, had already sensed the eighth layer of the magic net.

After a high dose of negative energy radiation, the perception of the magic web is reduced to the seventh layer.

Although it is only such a small change, compared to before, it is already a qualitative leap!

On this day, almost all the researchers in the laboratory left tears of excitement, although Xia Duo did not shed tears, but the pressure that had been deposited in his heart for a long time was also released.

It's just that just when he wanted to discuss the next experimental plan with everyone, the picture in his field of vision suddenly began to distort, and various noises appeared in his ears.

The other senses also seemed to receive a myriad of stray messages, making his mind dizzy and feeling sick and vomiting.

But before he could react, everything around him quickly changed, and when he came to his senses, the surroundings had changed to another scene-

"Hey, why do I seem to be lying on the ground?"

In the next moment, Xia Duo realized that he had turned into a baby lying in a cradle!

The time loop of the projection plane!
