Chapter 293: Chapter 294 Hypnotic Whisper
"Relause it. It's just a simple brain scan to confirm whether there is any foreign body in your brain."
Marvin looked at the slight uneasiness on the expression of the soldier lying on the experimental bench and comforted him.
Beauty is always privileged, and Marvin's attitude towards him is not as cold as that of the military, and his tight face is a little relaxed.
The soldier brewed for a while, and finally summoned up the courage to speak before Marvin was about to start the machine.
"What will happen to us in the future? What is the plan of the empire?"
"I don't know. I'm just a chief scientist affiliated with the scientific society. How should I deal with the traitors in the military? You should ask those generals what they think."
"We are not betrayed! It's just... Well, the assassination of the banquet is true. Many important people in the empire have been killed because of the assassination.
When the soldier heard Marvin's words, he was excited to refute something, but he was soon discouraged and regretted what he had done that day. Obviously, he also understood what serious the consequences of what they did that day would be.
However, the soldiers still want to argue that no one likes to fall into hell, and what they do is not too much to involve their families and even the whole family. Their descendants may be humiliated by this...
"But these are not out of our intention. We can do whatever the empire does, so please don't harm our family."
"So, it's useless for you to tell me this."
Marvin stopped debugging the mechanical action and held his forehead with a headache. Nine of the ten soldiers who checked their brains told her this, as if they had colluded in private.
"It's not my business. Although it seems to me that you are also the victims, you do it. Those victims don't care whether you are controlled or not. They just need to know that you are the prisoners who did these things. The nobles of the empire can't wait to smash you to pieces and ashes. They are dead. A lot, and a lot of injuries are needed. An explanation is needed, and the same is true for Amoeba.
Appropriate punishment by the empire is necessary, in a sense, to protect these soldiers who have been mentally controlled.
Think about it, in those powerful families, the highly regarded figures were killed outside. They want to bring the prisoners to justice to comfort the sacrificed people, which is a reasonable appeal.
And if the empire is acquitted because the soldiers are mentally controlled, and the family is not affected. Naturally, it is impossible to convince the victim's family. They will think that since the empire does not intend to severely punish the murderer of the banquet, we will do it ourselves and punish them.
To really reach that point, the victim's family is mixed with the punishment of subjective resentment, which is afraid that it will be hundreds of times more terrible than the punishment given by the empire.
"You can still live until now, which is the result of a lot of pressure on the empire."
Seeing the soldiers showing loss, Marvin, who was a little unbearable, reminded him again.
"What did you hear?"
"The sound of footsteps, is getting closer and closer, and the sound of breathing, he spoke..."
"What did you say?"
"I don't understand."
"Speak it out if you can understand."
"...the pilgrim...the truth...the necessary price..."
"And then?"
"Yes, something is in my mind. It's very uncomfortable..."
"No, the instrument did not detect any foreign matter."
Marvin shook his head. This answer has already existed for a long time, and the examination of the soldier's brain was also because of this, but the instrument showed that the soldier's brain was not abnormal.
"That seems to be the soldier's subjective illusion."
I have also read Marvin's report as the chief of science, and this is the judgment, but another scholar present has a different opinion.
"It's hard to say. Instruments are not omnipotent."
"...Ask which part of the brain it is."
With the illusory questions, the soldiers gave intermittent answers.
"Forehead, it's hard for the forehead..."
"It's the thinking area. If you really want spiritual domination, you must attack this place, which is realistic, but... the instrument scan does not find that there is a foreign body there."
Everyone's doubts are aroused by the soldier's answer, so that it may not be a subjective illusion, but something really exists.
"Can you smell anything? Or feel that you have come into contact with something.
"No, no, no feeling..."
Except for that period of distress, the other information is information that has long been learned through hypnosis. Marvin and several other science chiefs discussed for a while and made a decision.
"Prepare for it. Let's have a craniotomy and see what's in the thinking area."
