Lobotomy: Battle Master's Strongest Knight

"Cogito, what did the supervisor ask you to take?" Binah asked, shaking his golden eyes.

"I don't know. This is what the higher-ups meant. I don't dare to ask." Shen Yu spread his hands, "I guess there's something they want to experiment with."

"Come with me." Binah turned around, opened the door of the hall, and walked into the corridor with Shen Yu. Then, an indescribable smell came over them, a mixture of potion, blood, and palpable despair.

Not long after, Shen Yu arrived at a warehouse. Hundreds of glass warehouses were lined up on the walls.

Each container was filled with emerald green liquid, and tiny bubbles floated up in the liquid, like ethereal souls.

"Drawing from the spring of the soul, presenting liquid between life and death. Just take a batch." Binah said leisurely, his voice cold and ethereal.

"Wait, Minister, shouldn't you write a report?" Shen Yu asked deliberately in order to be more in line with his employee identity.

After all, this guy was once a ruler, and he might be caught if he reveals any flaws.

"Since that guy allowed you to come here, why bother asking for my opinion?" Binah said calmly. When Shen Yu relaxed, he suddenly asked:

"What did you do before?"

"Ah," Shen Yu was stunned by this brainless remark, and said according to the file he wrote:

"Working as a ninth-level closer in a remote office."

"Level 9?" Binah looked Shen Yu up and down, "What did you do wrong?"

Hearing this, Shen Yu's heart trembled, and he said carefully:

"It's hard to say, Minister, how did you know?"

"I've been working here for a long time, and my perception of spirits has become sharper, but your spirit is too strong. Besides, I don't think that a guy who has been to the ruins and brought back objects is only at the ninth level."

Shen Yu was confused when he heard this. The first one was understandable, but the second one... he had never been to the ruins. Why did she say that... objects?

Suddenly Shen Yu's heart trembled, and he remembered the item. He reached into his pocket and took out a red rune - the defender's emblem.

I actually brought it back.

At this time, Binah also looked at the amulet in Shen Yu's hand, and after taking a look, he sighed:

"Interesting, I have never seen such ruins. Where did you find it, in a remote suburb, in the depths of ruins?"

"Minister," Shen Yu laughed awkwardly, "I think I have the right to guarantee my privacy."

When Shen Yu finished speaking, he picked up a box of Cogito and prepared to leave, but when he was about to leave the R&D department, he heard Binah say:

"We're going to extract the Abnormal soon, why don't you stay and take a look? The Director found a guy like you who has a mental disorder, and he probably wants to do something similar."

Hearing this, Shen Yu turned around, put Cogito on the ground beside him, and said sincerely to Binah:

"Then please help me broaden my horizons, Minister."

"Heh, weird guy." Binah's mechanical body chuckled.

Then, a faint golden light rose from the R&D department, and countless strange white characters rose from the ground, and then the surrounding space began to distort, making Shen Yu feel dazed.

When his vision returned, he discovered that there was an instrument in the center, and a man was tied up on top of it.

At this time, Binah said to Shen Yu:

"Let me introduce you to this child, called 'Jane Doe'. He has nothing, and he has long since abandoned everything. The past and the present are no longer important to him, he can only move towards the future."

At this point, Binah turned to the other party and said:

"Did you sleep well?"

But the other person's eyes were still closed, and only his heaving chest proved that he was still alive.

But Binah didn't care at all and continued to narrate:

"Yes, you will always have sweet dreams, just as you desire. Soon, Cogito will be injected into your body. What kind of scenery is your inner world like, and what kind of rivers flow in it?"

At this time, footsteps were heard in the empty hall. Several staff members came to the instrument with boxes and stood there. After opening the boxes, they took out eye masks and earplugs and put them on.

"Initial level 3, upgraded to 5."

When Binah gave the order, a staff member took out three Cogitos from the box, put on a blindfold, and injected them into the other person's arms one by one based on physical memory.

At this time, Binah looked at Shen Yu and said:

"It seems they didn't bring spare eye masks today. You'll have to watch with me."

As soon as Binah finished speaking, the man on the instrument let out a violent roar, his body shook violently, his skin began to stretch and spread, and his face was distorted into an abnormal shape.

Then, his roar began to convey something else, and his violent breathing turned into a strange melody. Then, his chest melted and turned into a ball of bright red paint.

"Ordinary people simply can't stand such a scene..." Binah chuckled and looked at Shen Yu on the side, "Wait a moment, let's see what its fate will be next, whether it will be reborn or engraved on this eternal tombstone..."

When the third Cogito was pushed in, the man let out a roar, his spirit shattered, and then his body began to disintegrate rapidly.

The skin turned from normal color to pale, and then cracked into strange oil-painted patterns. The bones made crisp creaking sounds, and the body twisted into incredible shapes.

Finally, a mass of chaotic fragments burst out from the melted chest. It was a blur of indescribable organ remnants mixed with flesh, blood, and bones.

They burst out in all directions, hitting the lab table and the wall, causing disgusting bloodstains. They kept squirming, and finally dissipated into reality.

Is this how the test is formed? Shen Yu pretended to be shocked, looking at the wriggling piece of meat on the ground and sighed, today should be a bloody test.

"It seems that you are unlucky today. We have to change to another 'well'."

Shen Yu noticed that Binah's voice suddenly sounded in front of him. He turned around and found that the other party was looking at him carefully, and slowly said:

"What a shame. I thought your expression could be more exciting. Your performance is not very good. Besides, your spirit is already beyond the ordinary. Could it be that you are a non-human being?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yu's body suddenly tensed up, and his hands instantly pressed down the meat saw and musket at his waist.

"Oh, it seems not, at least not now." Binah chuckled and asked:

"Can you tell me about your past? Besides Geburah, you are the second person I have seen who can wear multiple EGOs."

"I'm sorry, Minister. I repeat, I have the right to my privacy."

"Yes, of course you have the right. After all, I am just a pile of scrap metal now. If I met you in the past, I would probably dig out your brains like they did."

"Just kidding," Binah let out a squeaky laugh, "Would you be interested in coming to my place? I'm in need of a water carrier."

"No," Shen Yu chuckled. I have claustrophobia. However, I am very interested in your previous position. Can you tell me how to become the leader?"

Binah: “…”

After speaking, Shen Yu picked up Cogito and walked out of the R&D department.

When Shen Yu arrived at the control department, he suddenly stopped and looked at the containment unit of One Sin and One Hundred Good Deeds.

"Or, why not go and apologize." Shen Yu thought as he looked at the containment unit in front of him. After all, it was the little knight who offended first, so it would be better to apologize.

Thinking of this, Shen Yu walked into the other party's containment unit, put Cogito down and coughed lightly.

"I'm sorry. Due to my poor management, the little knight attacked you. I have carefully educated him..."

When Shen Yu opened his mouth, the sound from his mouth turned into black text and slowly floated into the other person's mouth.

The old skeleton chewed on sins, releasing green spots of light, its empty eyes staring straight ahead, not knowing what it was thinking.

When Shen Yu stopped talking, a green smiley face appeared on the screen, and a prompt sounded:

Work results: Excellent

"I said it was an accident before," Shen Yu sighed as he looked at the full PE-BOX. After touching his empty forehead, he smiled at the old skeleton:

"Look, my work is full, why don't you give me an accessory? +2 points of spirit would be good too."

But the old skeleton still looked ahead quietly, in silence.

Seeing this, Shen Yu couldn't help but shook his head. Unfortunately, the other party couldn't speak, so he picked up the Cogito on the ground and waved to the other party:

"Goodbye."

Hearing this, the old skeleton slowly raised his head, looked at the other party's disappearing back, and slowly said:

"Conquer, why don't you hand over the crown to the other party?"

The words were very light, but contained infinite compassion. Every word spoke of a distant sin and a soul that needed redemption.

That is not a frequency that can be produced by any material thing, but a resonance deep in the soul.

"Oh Lord," a thunderous voice suddenly sounded in the empty containment room.

"Please forgive my transgression. Those lost lambs cannot bear the crown of the king. The scattered light alone is enough to drive them crazy. And it is difficult for the aliens to control this power.

"Lord, allow me to show you when the 'Kingdom' is drowned in images of the old days, and the messages above and below are distorted. I will release the crown to test if the Lambs are strong enough to bear the light."
