Chapter 57 What is the power
After Lu You activated his superpowers more than ten times, he could no longer hold on. No matter what, the use of superpowers would consume a lot of body. Chen Fan took him to a small restaurant at the entrance of the community to eat and replenish his energy.
The hotel is not big, but fortunately it is still clean. Chen Fan would come here to have a meal when he was too lazy to cook, so he got familiar with the boss here and said hello. The boss packed a small box for them. Actually, Chen Fan didn't care where to sit, but obviously they would definitely talk about something, so it's better not to leak these conversations.
The two of them ordered a few home-cooked dishes and started drinking them.
"How is it, are you looking at me?" Lu You asked after taking a sip of beer. He was very curious about Chen Fan's research method, as if it was not scientific at all... However, things like superpowers are really difficult to explain with science.
Chen Fan said while eating the dish: "I have some ideas, but you may not understand."
Lu You smiled contemptuously and showed his domineering aura and said, "Tell me, I want to see if you have any good opinions." Chen Fan's words aroused his competitive spirit.
"I carefully monitor your state when using your abilities. I found that your body will emit a strange fluctuation. It is precisely because of that fluctuation that the superpower can be used."
Chen Fan came to this conclusion after surveillance for so long. Comparing this conclusion with Duan Chengtian's situation, Chen Fan was a little surprised. The fluctuations of Duan Chengtian's ability emitted were very similar to those of Lu You, but they were also different. Although he only came into contact with these two examples, the superpowers of these two people were caused by this fluctuation. Chen Fan then inferred that different abilities would have different fluctuations, and perhaps a fluctuation represents a superpower.
Of course, these are all Chen Fan's inferences, and he has no time to verify them.
"Fluctuation?" Lu You said hesitation. The Fusang people tried all the detectors they could find but still found no traces of superpowers. It seems that superpowers still need to be solved by superpowers.
"Wave... volatility! By the way, no matter what, a superpower can cause damage, it must have energy! Yes, as we speculate, superpower is an unknown energy that humans can use with their bodies!" Lu You suddenly became excited. He felt that he had discovered the essence of superpower. For an engineering man, nothing is more exciting than a new discovery, especially this discovery is likely to be famous in history!
Although the research on superpowers has been carried out to a very deep level, the genes of the superpowers have been cracked, analyzed, synthesized, and even artificial superpowers like Lu You have been created, no one has discovered the essence of superpowers. All conclusions about the essence of superpowers are just inferences and hypotheses, and everyone's research is still at the level of genes.
Gradually, everyone no longer works hard to study the essence of superpowers because the goal is too slim. So they only work hard to crack superpowers at the biological level. Just extract the abilities of superpowers for their use. Whether it is made into drugs or transforming the human body, they can make huge profits. How much benefit will they get after studying the essence of superpowers?
If you don’t talk about research, you can’t start with it. If you talk about the huge financial resources and time you may need to invest, those companies that put profit first will not go beyond the line. The government may fund this research, but it will not invest too much. At most, a few experimental groups will be funded in advance like playing chess. If there is no result, it will be decisively discarded. If there is some clue, it will not be too late to increase the investment and output results.
Lu You calmed down after being excited. All he said just was inference. No one except Chen Fan could prove his inference. No one could believe the inference that could only be proved by people. This is not in line with the objective spirit of science.
Chen Fan thought the same as Lu You. He also believed that superpowers were an energy, but he did not think as much as Lu You. He did not have any high-level ideas when studying superpowers, but it was just for himself. This was not selfish, he had his own considerations.
In another world, individuals can have powerful power, such as a magician's forbidden spell that can completely destroy a city. An ambitious strong man will naturally use his own strength to seek more things, and then he will have conflicts with the vested interests, and this is how wars are caused.
It doesn’t matter whether it is right or wrong. If I want your status and wealth, I will use my own strength to gain it! Those who know that they will find a suitable excuse, and those who don’t care about their appearance will speak completely with their fists.
If Chen Fan cracked his superpowers and found a way to practice superpowers, he would not have spread this method. If the superpowers practice methods spread and the ability of the superpowers becomes stronger, the world may become very chaotic. Chen Fan does not believe that everyone has his own enlightenment, and after having the power, he will not use his own abilities to do evil.
Although the world today is not as beautiful as imagined, fortunately, it is relatively stable and most people can live in a safe environment.
Chen Fan didn't want to make the world chaotic. He liked to do what he liked in a stable environment.
As for other institutions' research plans for superpowers, Chen Fan is powerless to stop them, but there is no need to worry too much. Those research institutions will definitely have strict monitoring of their own research. I am afraid they think more about what will happen after superpowers are rampant than Chen Fan. It is probably an anomaly to be able to escape like Lu You.
...
Lu You continued to ask Chen Fan: "If superpowers are energy, then people can use it, and machines should be able to do it. Can machines be used to verify that the fluctuations you mentioned exist?"
Chen Fan shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm not familiar with this aspect." In fact, Chen Fan has a solution, but he doesn't want to tell Lu You...
"Then can you cooperate with me in the experiment?" Lu You couldn't wait. If such an important discovery was in his name, he would be excited to think about it.
Chen Fan smiled and said, "There is only so much I can tell you. If you do experiments, I will be the same as if I am or not. If you can use an instrument to detect the energy I mentioned, I can only help you verify that others, but I can't help you. Besides, I have my own research." He said this, rejected Lu You's proposal.
Chen Fan said it right. If he couldn't detect energy with a machine, it would be useless to cooperate with Chen Fan. Thinking about what his colleagues had done, Lu You sighed in disappointment.
"Forget it, I'm not in a hurry. Let's start researching this aspect when I get Ishii Biology." Lu You said, then he looked at Chen Fan and asked, "What is your research?"
"I want to know what a superpower is and how people control superpowers." Chen Fan said.
This is the goal of almost all superpower research institutions, and it is not very strange. Lu You was a little disappointed. He thought Chen Fan would put forward some novel views.
Chen Fan did not explain further after saying this. Although his research purpose was not surprising, the research methods were completely different. Major research institutions were using science to study superpowers, while Chen Fan used magic, and he had found a way to crack superpowers!
Science and magic are basically two different systems. Chen Fan uses a magic system to study superpowers, so only he can understand the results after the research. Of course, using science can also crack superpowers, but scientists have not yet found a suitable solution.
In other words, Chen Fan personally has a system that can be compared with science and even surpass science in some aspects, and this is magic!
Chen Fan is a unique existence in this world!
"How many more times do you need me to release my abilities?" Lu You asked.
"It's almost done. If you have something to do, go busy." Chen Fan said. His monitoring of Lu You is almost done, and even if Lu You's ability to use it, he can't detect new things.
"Okay, then I'm ready to go to America right away." Lu You said.
Chen Fan looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why do you want to go to America? How? Are you not afraid of being caught by the Fusang people?" Ishii Bio's superpower project is in cooperation with the military. He is afraid that the other party will soon find his whereabouts when he goes through official channels.
Lu You smiled and said, "Do you think I will open a company in China? You are wrong. My work requires a lot of sensitive materials. Other countries will not export them to China at all. However, America is different. There is no way to go there. As for the pursuit of Fusang, I already have a way to deal with it. Don't worry."
Lu You is not his subordinate, so he didn't want to say it, so Chen Fan didn't ask much. After dinner, he returned to Chen Fan's house. Chen Fan prepared all the materials needed to start a company to him, and then he hurried away.
