Chapter 3: Starting from scratch
Chapter 3: Starting from scratch
Mysterious scientific research articles appear, and Han Dong immediately immerses himself in them.
When Han Dong was in school before his death, the highest record was that he could read twenty scientific research papers of medium and short length papers in one day.
But this time it was a bit difficult, not because of the brain, but because Han Dong could not understand some of the knowledge described in the article.
"Quantum physics... involves the use of the fourth dimension to intervene in the quantum realm through subjective consciousness?
Subjectively 'influence' and 'modulate' quantum space through the human brain as a 'vehicle'. Wow, this cross-disciplinary literature reading is killing me."
The profession has its specialties.
Han Dong's physics level is just as good as an undergraduate.
"If the hypothesis in this article is correct and brought back to my world, I'm afraid it will cause a revolutionary storm in the field of physics... However, this article also contains the principles of magic in this world, and I can't even understand the weird text in these last few pages.
In other words, this technology is limited to this world.
Don't want to think about it, headache!
All in all, the so-called [Subspace Accommodation Technology] has been assembled in this head."
Han Dong turned his head to look at the head in the hydraulic tank.
Opening the tank and reaching out to touch the 'smooth' head through the operation described in the literature.
John Doe (whose identity is unknown in life)
Head of the Faceless Man: A modified product with the ability to "imitate" and "portable prison".
Weight requirement: 100
"Full load value?!
The head is not simply fused with quantum space, but also has the ability to change its appearance.
Also, it is slightly different in description from the other flesh in the prison."
Should we pick the complete prisoner flesh, or this head alone?
"It's decided!"
The top half of the female religious's body was instantly lifeless and slumped on the table.
Squeal!
A mass of cells emerged from the mouth and slowly crawled towards the smooth and rounded faceless head.
"The Faceless Man's Skull (Transformation Item)" has a weight of 100, and once it's occupied, you can't choose another body. Do you want to take it?
Yes!
Very decisive.
However, this time the physical acceptance was completely different from before.
The time to receive the head was very long.
A minute...an hour...ten hours.
During this admission process, Han Dong's consciousness was in a 'frozen' state of union with his brain.
I don't know how long passed.
By the time consciousness cleared and his eyes opened, the scene in front of him had completely changed.
A slightly cold wind blew in Han Dong's ears.
The night, the full moon, the stars.
Dirt, needles, and jungle.
The original prison no longer existed, while Han Dong took the form of a head and landed in a forest of conifers.
"The prison automatically disappeared due to the completion of the 'flesh' choice?"
At this moment, the familiar system sound came.
''Flesh selection is complete, due to the incompleteness of the host, we are unable to activate the abilities associated with [Head of the Faceless] at this time.
Please find an intact ordinary human body as soon as possible.
Note: The current weight load is 100%, so you can't take over the body of a specific individual.
This occupation will not increase your weight.
After obtaining the relevant information, Han Dong tried to move.
An itching sensation came from his neck as his brain sent the 'move' command.
Looking down... a sturdy fungus (tentacle-like) was actually growing from between his neck, carrying his head to move quickly, as fast as a normal human's running speed.
It wasn't long after Han Dong's activity.
Tap tap tap tap!
The silence of the forest was broken by the sound of hoof-beats.
With the help of the moonlight, Han Dong clearly saw a scientific product that was different from his 'worldview' galloping through the forest.
A carriage.
But it was a fusion of steam technology and brass metal.
The horse's limbs were replaced by a brass steam piston device that provided sufficient power.
With precision gear construction to perfectly replicate the running pattern of the horse's legs.
The perfectly streamlined metal design makes for a natural and smooth trot.
The horse's body and head remain intact and are covered with a sleek, exotic colored metal armor.
It was impossible to tell what type of metal the armor was forged from with the naked eye.
The two bronze horses were dragging an airtight brass carriage.
A large amount of steam was constantly spilling out from the edges of the carriage, in neatly arranged pipes, meaning that the carriage was currently traveling at full speed.
"Steam carriage? Racing full speed through the woods, is something chasing them?"
Han Dong quietly lurked in the grass, all the tentacles on his neck withdrawn.
Holding his breath, he waited for the carriage to pass by.
However.....
Clank!
The metal side door opened, and a human wrapped in a black cloak and mask grabbed the head out of the grass.
You know, the carriage was moving at 80km/h, and the person in the carriage directly locked onto a head hidden in the night forest.
The action was fluid.
The moment the head was brought into the carriage, it was thrown into a sackcloth pocket in passing.
A stench of decay filled Han Dong's nasal cavity.
The sack actually contained two corpses that were already stinking.
However, Han Dong, who has been in the smelly rat culture room for years and has done nearly 1,000 dissections of mice, faces such a smell with a normal face... He pretends to be a dead body and eavesdrops on the situation outside.
In standard British English, he hears.
"Denise! Do you have any idea how dangerous what you just did was! The individuals chasing us are a mix of 'mutants'."
Followed by a graceful, female voice with a firm tone.
"Not even a head can give them a chance to feed..."
"You're so stubborn! Your recklessness will one day make you a member of the body bag... Strange, the Holy City is a stone's throw away from us, but where did this head come from?
If it's a coward who sneaks out of the Holy City, he'll either be left without a body or with a full body! There shouldn't be only one head left.
It needs to be checked!"
The Han Dong in the body bag was fiercely shocked.
Although he was a human, if they found out that Han Dong existed in the form of a 'living head', things would be troublesome.
If it was placed in Han Dong's living world, then his next fate would be to be sent to the Academy of Sciences for research, begging for his life but not his death.
Even if it was a parallel world, the ending should be similar.
The body bag opened, and a pair of eyes through the mask stared straight at Han Dong's skull.
Right at this moment.
Boom!
The wagon suffered a violent impact and the body bag closed.
"I can't believe it caught up with the steam wagon! Use the copper bullets to counterattack...we're not far from the holy city, and the number of bullets should last until we get into town."
Ta-ta-ta!!!
The deafening sound of machine gun fire was heard.
Han Dong in the body bag breathed a sigh of relief, but it was the so-called 'mutant' who helped him defuse the danger at the critical moment.
After gradually adjusting to the sound of gunfire, the calm Han Dong became curious about the world he was traveling through due to the content of the group's conversation.
What's a mutant? Some kind of monster?
Holy City? How come I've never heard of it? A country derived from a parallel world?
"There's too little information to extrapolate... I'll have to find a way out of the wagon once we reach the Holy City! Detach from this group and then take your time to explore and learn about the world.
Preferably, the pursuing monsters can destroy part of the carriage."
Han Dong had just thought of this when he heard a 'crunch' sound.
It seemed that the metal tin of the carriage had really been cut open by some kind of sharp object.
"Hurry up and send a signal! Tell the losers guarding the city to open the door for us!"
"Yes!"
A beam of fireworks shot out from the roof of the car.
Immediately following, Han Dong could hear the loud noise of a certain thick giant door opening.
Around five minutes later.
The machine guns stopped firing and the speed of the wagon slowly dropped.
"Entering the city?... getting ready to disengage the wagon."
Han Dong could roughly guess the situation outside.
The line of people who had escaped the monster's pursuit were in a state of relaxation, both physically and mentally.
Before the gates closed, this pedestrian must have been staring at the situation outside the city gates the entire time... his attention would not have drifted.
Slowly lift the opening of the body bag through the mycelium at the neck.
A tear in the side of the carriage was enough to put Han Dong's head through it.
"Wait!"
Han Dong was waiting for a perfect moment that would never be discovered.
Boom!
The moment the gates closed, the sound overpowered everything around it.
A head flew out of the side of the carriage and quickly crawled into the dark streets the moment it landed.
Listening to the sound of metal hooves that didn't stop.
Han Dong in the dark alley smiled and continued his search for a suitable flesh body for an ordinary person.
