629: Chapter 532: Symptoms_2 629: Chapter 532: Symptoms_2 If one were to join the filth, the best outco would still be becoming another massive corporation, one of the despicable leeches.
Not only would this an losing all popular support, but more frighteningly, it would an the loss of the moral authority to rally global progressive forces.
Every mont, in every place, whether visible or hidden, progressive forces are waiting to erupt in unison, to burn away the decaying shackles.
Nestor Corporation intends to use the Northern Archipelago as a base to support progressive causes around the world until they can respond to a single call.
When the true World War breaks out, Nestor Corporation will find allies all over the world!
When a survival crisis arises, and the company can’t reconcile the issues, the rage of those with nothing will burn incessantly, targeting the monopolistic corporations themselves.
By then, the true bloodbath will comnce, and the fate of the entire civilization may well be decided within the next few generations.
Nestor Corporation, Seven Seals, other massive corporations, Ancient Mystics, Interstellar Giant Gods…
The biting cold winds were like a warning, spurring them to gird for war.
The conflicts among them were irreconcilable, and one must annihilate the other three.
As Xu Yang returned to the city from the forest, his mind swirled with thoughts.
He intended to undertake the most earth-shattering task in the most composed and prudent manner.
It was at this mont that he heard Rinne was in trouble.
Xu Yang rushed back to the dical center at Nestor Headquarters, where Rinne lay on a dical bed, eyes closed, her brain connected to a health monitor.
He glanced over and saw that all her health indicators were stable, aning Rinne was in good condition, but for safety reasons, the dical staff had given her a dose of the Pale Cure Injection to keep her asleep.
“It was who brought her here,” Pan Ruiyi stood at the door, wearing a helt, her face not visible, but her voice conveyed great anxiety, “Yesterday we were playing just fine, but today sothing’s not right.”
“Cyber-ntal illness,” Xu Yang checked the dical team’s consultation log.
They had used sedatives and immunosuppressants on Rinne to suppress her mind’s growing tendency to split.
Her condition had improved, and the initial diagnosis was an outbreak of cyber-ntal illness, a rare event.
“Is it because of us?” Pan Ruiyi was shocked, guilt-ridden at the thought of the little fruit they had given Rinne the day before, “Then we can’t…
do that anymore.”
“Her last record was in the Virtual Reality Pod.
The doctor determined she can’t go through any more consciousness data conversion programs.” Xu Yang reviewed the dical report, which suggested that virtual reality technology had affected Rinne’s recognition of reality, triggering her cyber-ntal illness, “It probably doesn’t have much to do with us.
Mainly, she…
she should not be loaded with any virtual reality enhancent technologies.
Was she undergoing virtual combat training here?”
“She’s often in the headquarters’ Combat Simulation Pods,” Pan Ruiyi said more urgently, “Is that so?
I told her to use it for no more than 2 hours at a ti.
She wouldn’t misuse it, would she?”
Xu Yang examined closely.
“She’s been using it for over 4 hours each ti, with the longest session lasting 8 hours,” Xu Yang murmured, “She even modified the pod’s alarm system with hacking techniques to avoid being forced offline.”
“…No wonder she’s progressed so quickly,” Pan Ruiyi was despairing at her own negligence, “I thought she had extraordinary talent!
Turns out, she’s been punishing herself!
Staying in those insane combat scenarios for so long, no wonder…
no wonder she ended up like this.”
“She does have talent, it’s just…” Xu Yang said slowly, “she still lacks various kinds of experience.”
“I haven’t looked after her properly!” Pan Ruiyi lanted loudly, beside herself, “She…
she wanted to beco stronger as quickly as possible, but who am I that easy to deal with?
I should have let her win against at least once, then she wouldn’t have pushed herself so hard!”
People who have been injected with the Pale Cure Injection only awaken under extre external conditions, and at that point, Rinne was indeed roused by Pan Ruiyi’s clamor.
She opened her eyes, looking weak.
“…I rember I hurt a Synthetic Human,” Rinne murmured, “How is it doing?”
“It’s been sent for repairs,” Pan Ruiyi leaned in quickly to reassure, “Don’t worry.”
Rinne took a mont to breathe and then turned to look at Xu Yang.
“I’m sorry…
Mr.
Web Monitor…” Rinne apologized tiredly.
“Your current ntal split percentage has risen to 6%,” Xu Yang held Rinne’s hand, trying to comfort her, “…You can’t participate in any virtual reality-related activities anymore.
You have to face this world wholeheartedly, the world we truly live in.”
“But I must…” Rinne raised her voice.
“There’s nothing that’s a must…
no more virtual combat simulations,” Xu Yang cautioned, “no more virtual gas, no courses on the Helis Sea, and use of subjective slowdown implants is forbidden too.
They’re the starting point of your descent into ntal splits.
Not until you complete your treatnt and your ntal split percentage slowly falls back to the original 2%.”
“…I’m like a useless person,” Rinne said self-deprecatingly, “Can’t even withstand a bit of coursework.
Any 14-year-old child can enjoy virtual gas, and yet such things trigger cyber-ntal illness in .”
“It’s not your fault; it’s what others have done, leaving psychological shadows on everyone, including !” Pan Ruiyi almost jumped onto the bed, hugging Rinne so tightly it almost crushed her, but luckily Pan Ruiyi let go in ti.
Rinne stayed silent, her face buried in her hands.
“I still…” she looked up, “…I still want to be of help, to do sothing useful.
But now I can’t do anything?”
