Blackstone Code

The party was scheduled for Tuesday, which honestly wasn't a good time.

Most businesses will be very busy on Monday and Tuesday, and only after Thursday will things gradually get easier.

But for big capitalists, it doesn’t really matter what day it is.

The party started at two o'clock in the afternoon and was located in a newly built medical laboratory on the outskirts of Bupen.

The cool-toned lobby coupled with some technological-looking things gives people the illusion of stepping into the near future.

After entering the door, Lynch also changed into sterile clothes with the help of the staff, and after disinfection, he entered the laboratory.

At this time, many people had come, and everyone was wearing protective clothing and sitting together. They looked quite silly!

And Lynch isn't the only one who thinks so.

"It looks like a themed costume party. Have you been to it?"

Mr. Wardrick found Lynch and sat down next to him.

Lynch looked carefully and saw Mr. Wardrick's face in the hood.

"Are you talking about the kind of party where everyone throws away their moral restraints and indulges in indulgence, or is it just an ordinary party?"

Mr. Wardrick was stunned for a moment, then chuckled softly, "What do you think I'm talking about?"

Lynch did not answer directly, "I have not participated."

He answered very definitely, which made Mr. Wardrick a little less trusting of him, "Why don't I believe what you said?"

Lynch shrugged indifferently, "I don't have that much time to go to an ordinary party!"

Mr. Wardrick was stunned for a while before he came to his senses. He gave Lynch a slap and said, "You are so funny!"

Lynch smiled and changed the topic to the party, "Why did so many people gather this time?"

Mr. Wardrick pouted, but with the hood on his face, Lynch couldn't see the unhappy expression on his face.

"I'm not sure. There seems to be some other technological breakthrough, right?"

Since he left the consortium, his rank and status in the Holy Harmony and Eternal Life has declined.

This cannot be said to be institutional philistines. They are just very realistic and unwilling to engage in hypocritical entertainment.

With power, status and influence, you can naturally do more for the organization.

With money, no status, and no influence, a bunch of lowest-level members have told people why they are just the lowest-level members.

Although Ancock Industries is now on the rise again, Mr Wardrick's ranking has not returned to its previous heights.

Even if he takes the initiative to inquire about many contents, he may not be able to get the latest news, let alone think of others to proactively remind him.

The speaker was almost here, and the host walked onto the stage. He looked very excited, as if he drank a little wine or did something else before going on stage.

"Gentlemen, this is a great year and we will witness some miracles together!"

"Before that, let me first talk about why there is this party..."

"During the war, we discovered some relics in the... area."

"Our inferences about these remains suggest that they have been around far longer than we know about human history."

"We have unearthed some important documents and some items. After two years of decryption, we have deciphered most of their contents and discovered a very special potion."

"In addition, we have also made breakthrough progress in medical treatment."

“Although there is still some way to go before we reach our goal of ‘eternal life’, we have taken the most important step!”

"Last summer, one of our most important members, Mr...., was admitted to the hospital with sudden organ failure."

"He is an important supporter of ours and after discussions with him, we decided to make a special plan for him."

"After more than 3,000 attempts and experiments, we finally solved many of the problems we encountered, and finally we allowed him to survive."

"And next, you will see a brand new...sir!"

As the host raised his hand toward the back of the stage, a huge thing like... a medical cabin was soon pushed out.

The doctor opened one of the small boxes in front of everyone, and almost everyone stood up!

It was... a transparent medical cylinder about one foot in diameter.

The cylinder is filled with a blue liquid. This is not important. What is important is that there is a human head in the cylinder!

He is the gentleman mentioned by the host. He looks very old.

What is horrifying is that this head is not dead, he can even blink and move his eyeballs!

Then people noticed that there were two clusters of blood vessels, one from the left and one from the right, running along the outside of his chin and connecting into the skin.

He is not dead yet, in the form of a human head!

Many people are very shocked by this!

Including Lynch!

Obviously this is an unethical approach, but it also gives everyone a kind of... very depressing pleasure!

Although people have not yet found the key to eternal life, they have indeed made a big step forward compared to the past.

The team leader in charge of the independent skull survival project began to introduce this medical service, and people sat back again.

They will get close to the thing later, and then briefly communicate with the brain inside to confirm that this is not a joke!

"...Mr.'s condition makes us very worried. During this period, we tried to save his failing organs, but all failed."

“At the most critical moment, a tester provided an idea.”

"We studied a considerable number of patients with high-level paralysis and tried something on these patients."

"We found that after certain operations, muscle tissue and nerve tissue were stripped away, including part of the spine and nerves."

"The human head can still move. As long as the body continues to maintain blood supply, death will not occur in a short time."

"Then we dug deeper into this idea. After more than 1,700 attempts, we mastered the key technology of head dissection surgery!"

"We can ensure that the head is viable for a certain period of time after being detached from the body."

"Next, our research direction begins to turn to the blood supply problem, and here we have two options."

"Allogeneic blood supply, and mechanical blood supply."

"The core of allogeneic blood supply is to transplant the head into another body like an organ."

"This part of the experiment can already be done, but under certain circumstances that we cannot determine, brain cells will die quickly."

"We have considered that it may be a genetic problem, but we have not yet made a breakthrough in this regard."

"And we can't solve the central nervous system connection problem. In other words, after a head transplant, you will be a high-level paraplegic."

"So we adopted a mechanical blood supply. The blood is pumped directly into the head blood circulation system through mechanical oxygenation."

"Surprisingly, we were able to reduce the rate of brain cell death to a much lower level."

"Medical science has been making continuous progress. Problems that we cannot solve now may not be solved in the future."

"According to our calculations, Mr. ...'s head will survive for about thirty to forty years."

"If we keep it dormant, he could continue to live for a hundred years or more."

"When future medical technologies can solve problems that we can't solve now, they can get a new lease of life!"

The head in the tank had a little, but not much, smile on his face.

Without the muscle mass in his neck, his smile was less pronounced.

"Doesn't he need to breathe?"

Someone asked.

Soon everyone was laughing. It was obvious that the old man without a body did not need to breathe, so his head was soaked in a nutrient solution.

It is said that these nutrient solutions are the latest components of the amniotic fluid, and some fetal development hormones are extracted from the body of pregnant women and added to ensure that the brain does not die quickly.

This art is a bit scary, but... for rich gentlemen, it doesn't matter whether it scares you or not, what matters is how to survive in the worst situation!

Even if there is only one head left, as long as you are still alive, this is not a problem, right?

When science develops in the future, getting a young body again is simply the best answer at the moment!

Many people began to ask about more details and the price of maintenance.

It costs about 20,000 yuan a year to maintain it like this. These expenses are mainly electricity bills, as well as the cost of replacing fresh blood, nutrient solutions and hormones.

This little money is not money at all to everyone.

Everyone is very concerned about this project, and many people have expressed their willingness to increase investment in this project.

"It's amazing... but I don't like it." Mr. Wardrick and Lynch stood chatting about their thoughts on the project.

"If I can survive but only have one head left, I think I might as well die."

"He cannot express his thoughts clearly, and his life and death are in the hands of others. It seems that he is alive, but such a life is just endless suffering."

"Maybe he will want to commit suicide one day, but he can't even commit suicide!"

Lynch quite agrees with his view, "This technology is too difficult. I think it will be difficult to make any breakthroughs in at least fifty years."

"But we can invest some additional funds, what if they really make brain transplants as reliable as kidney transplants?"

Mr. Wardrick agreed, "Shocking, but useless!"

The detailed Q\u0026A lasted for more than 40 minutes before it ended, and people's enthusiasm also faded a bit.

The only thing the gentleman can do now is watch TV and sleep, there is nothing else he can do.

The cylinder was like a prison, locking him inside and unable to see the future for a short time!
