BXBX NOVEL Chapter 30 - 30: Your Violent Treatment
“Other powers?”
Lu Xin was unable to understand Chen Jing’s words for a moment.
He seriously pondered for a moment before asking back seriously, “What’s psyche energy?”
After hearing this question, Chen Jing suddenly smiled and pushed another document that was at the bottom to Lu Xin, saying, “It looks like you didn’t study the document I gave you previously in detail. The so-called psyche energy is the unit of measurement we use to assess the threat level of a corruption source, as well as the ability level of a psyche mutant. It’s specifically meant for the strength of psyche power.”
Lu Xin took the document, only to see some sensitive nouns and units on it.
Previously on his copy of the document, there seemed to be these words too. However, they were in English, and there were some complicated formulas and ways of measurement.
Apart from the issue of treatment, he didn’t understand anything else.
At this time, Chen Jing continued to explain, “You can understand it this way. A healthy adult at the most active stage of his psyche has around ten units of psyche power. Meanwhile, a normal Level One Psyche Monster or corruption source has about 100 units of psyche power. This usually decides how corrupted they are.
“Of course, you have to take note that Psyche Monster is not the same as the corruption source.
“Although we usually use them exchangeably now, in reality, ‘Psyche Monsters’ are those that attack consciously and are the source of corruption which change accordingly. Some corruption sources do not have consciousness and can only distort the corrupted’s psyche powers and cause a certain level of impact.
“Our job today will allow us to see the difference in these two.”
Chen Jing said with a stern face, “From the initial situation and intelligence report, we initially concluded that this was an ordinary corruption event. We only just realized that the corruption source had turned into a Psyche Monster.”
“Oh…”
Lu Xin acted as though he completely understood and nodded.
Then, he paused for a moment and asked again, “Then, why did you ask if I was hiding other abilities?”
“Because you handled this corruption incident alone.”
Chen Jing looked at him with what seemed to be an imperceptible smile and said, “Based on the previous tests, your ability belongs to the Spider Style with an ability rating of C, while your psyche power is around one hundred units, with a variation of no more than fifty units. Usually, the same level of psyche mutants has a slightly lower psyche power than the corruption source of the same level.
“After all, the corruption source only became a corruption source because it lost control because the sudden mutation in the psyche was beyond its limit. Meanwhile, the psyche mutant is still under control even though there were a psyche mutation and substantial enhancement.
“Therefore, we rarely let the psyche mutant face decisions regarding the corruption source alone.
“Normally, we solve it through finding the logic chain and critical factor of the psyche corruption…”
Lu Xin said at the right time, “Then… What is a logic chain and…”
“Logic chain is the surface pattern and mode of the corruption source. This represents the corruption method and level of the psyche corruption. For example, it’s concluded that special corruption source 041 has a logic chain of revenge and there was a time pattern. We can analyze the reaction of the corruption source through such a logic chain, as well as customize the clean-up or how to avoid it.
“The critical factor represents the corruption source, as well as the switch of the corruption source. When you turn it off, it ends.”
Chen Jing explained clearly and stared at Lu Xin with a look of “I know that you didn’t look at the document carefully.” “No matter when, looking for the logic chain and critical factor of the corruption source is the best method to deal with the cleanup of the corruption. However, you’re different. You didn’t find these and directly got rid of the corruption source. Not to mention about 036, but you did the same to 041…
“I have to say, although this treatment method is very direct, it’s also very… violent!
“However, such a situation is rarely encountered!”
After saying all of those in one breath, Chen Jing paused and lit up a cigarette. “So, we still have to ask you the usual questions. Don’t have to be nervous, this is a kind of routine work report, considering that the higher-ups may be interested in such things and raise questions. I have to write a decent report and provide an explanation to the higher-ups…”
“Oh-oh, I understand…”
As soon as he heard about the report, Lu Xin nodded. He was experienced in this.
“Maybe it’s really a bit unusual…”
Thinking about what she said, Lu Xin slowly thought and then said, “The important thing is, this is not my doing…”
Chen Jing frowned.
Lu Xin said frankly, “It’s my sister!”
Chen Jing looked as though she was deep in thought and wondered how to reply.
Lu Xin pointed at the rubbish bin outside the door as though he was worried that Chen Jing did not believe him. He said, “The candy wrapper you threw away earlier on is from the candy eaten by my sister!”
Chen Jing frowned and said, “Where is she now?”
Lu Xin looked at her head and said, “She’s on top of your head and smiling at you…”
“You…”
Although it wasn’t the first time she heard it, Chen Jing still felt goosebumps.
She tried to hold it in, stiffened her neck, and did not look up.
However, after holding it in for a long time, she could no longer resist. She looked up slightly and realized that there was nothing on top of her head.
She couldn’t tolerate that.
Lu Xin added softly, “You won’t be able to see her…”
Chen Jing glared at him and heaved a sigh of relief after a long while.
She leaned back slightly so that she could look up easily and said, “Forget it, let’s not talk about this for now. I’m more curious about why you insist on charging towards the corruption source even though I ordered you to retreat?”
Lu Xin thought about it seriously and replied, “Because the three members had yet to be corrupted!”
Chen Jing knew that the three members of the investigation team were not corrupted. The professionals from the headquarters had evaluated them and, apart from some panic, the three members had no signs of corruption. Many of the onlookers had witnessed how the three of them controlled the distorted psyche powers back then. They even flew into mid-air and fired at Lu Xin.
Usually, this situation wouldn’t be regarded as normal.
In other words, in the absence of Lu Xin, the three members of the investigation team would have died.
And this was what she could not understand.
Therefore, she asked slowly, “How do you know that the three of them weren’t corrupted?”
“How do I know?”
Lu Xin was a little confused over this question. He replied after a while, “I saw it…”
