Chapter 102 Chapter 100 Head-Ear Coordination Training

"Do you have any last wishes?" "What do you mean?" "As long as it's an operation, there will definitely be unexpected events, so it's better to ask first. Your will..." "I'm only operating on my arm and ear. It won't be fatal, right?" "What if the drill goes into your head?" "Then my will is: please ask Brother Dao to kill you." "Got it, I'll tell him."

Zhuang Xuteng was shot in the neck and soon lost his sense of touch, and then was pushed into the operating room. He stayed awake during the entire operation. For four hours, he kept watching Dr. Hei fiddling with him. It didn't hurt at all, but when he was working on his ears, he often heard the loud sound of a bell without any warning, and it was very scary. He kept thinking about the terrible scene of the drill entering his brain, and he didn't dare to delay the doctor's operation, so he endured it and didn't dare to say it out loud.

"It went better than expected, and it has been installed. You will slowly regain control of your body within an hour. If you feel a lot of pain, ask the nurse to give you some painkillers." Dr. Hei wrote the precautions on a piece of paper and showed it to Zhuang Xuteng. "If you feel it's too noisy, clap your ears with both hands at the same time. Clap three times in a row, and you can close the implant in an emergency. Just be gentle, don't make your ears bleed. Okay, I can finally rest for a while."

Ge Gongdao usually takes an hour to take a nap, which can be used as an alarm clock. Before he woke up, Zhuang Xuteng had regained the feeling in his arms. Doctor Hei was right, his arms were a little painful, but the degree of pain was about the same as holding the Wild Monkey Gang's pistol, which was completely tolerable.

The state of his ears was a little strange. He kept hearing a gurgling sound, and he didn't know where it came from. So he asked Dao Ge to call Doctor Hei.

"That's your bowel sound. Your ears are adapting to the body, so you need to eliminate the sounds you make first. Didn't you hear your heartbeat during the operation?"

"I heard the sound of a bell. It was booming, and I didn't dare to tell you because I was afraid of disturbing you."

"You didn't ask, so I thought you had studied it in advance. That's your heartbeat. It couldn't identify it correctly at first, so it gave you a wrong signal. Oh, let's use the easy way. This is the instruction manual for the ear. Read it yourself. Call me if there is a situation not mentioned above." Dr. He pointed to Zhuang Xuteng's arm and said, "This doesn't need an instruction manual. It will run automatically all the time. Eat more meat and don't eat spicy food in the next two days. If everything goes well, you can be discharged tomorrow. . ”

Zhuang Xuteng laughed and said, "Your voice is sometimes near and sometimes far, which is very interesting."

"Stop playing around and train well. The shadow implant also needs to be adjusted. Don't waste your investment." Doctor Hei's expression became serious. He then snapped his fingers and said, "Your ears should be able to distinguish the direction and distance of this snap sound with an error of two centimeters. It can do it, but it doesn't mean you can do it. Do you understand?"

"The doctor is right." Gongdao Ge nodded solemnly and said, "I will buy you the training equipment in the instructions. You should take the time to recover and exercise. Come, show me what you need... uh... a tennis ball?"

"You can buy a few more." Doctor Hei said.

The purpose of implanting a shadow implant in the ear is to enhance hearing, including strengthening the ability to distinguish, improving sensitivity and obtaining rapid positioning ability. Under normal circumstances, a person can only locate the direction of a single sound by relying on his ears. Only by hearing continuously changing sounds or by moving his own position and changing the posture of his ears can he achieve the effect of roughly locating the spatial point of the sound source.

The Shadow Implant not only enhances hearing sensitivity and provides protection against explosive sound waves, but also serves as an auxiliary receiver. In other words, the two ears combined can be regarded as adding a main receiving point and an auxiliary verification point, which can locate single, short-term sounds.

This is not something that the ears can do by themselves, but also requires the cooperation of the brain, and the brain is a lazy guy. If it is not put under pressure to learn hard until a new conditioned reflex is formed, it will not take the initiative to work. The training method of "Night Scout Type III" is very simple, which is to throw a tennis ball against the wall, listen carefully to the sound, and let the ears catch up with the information seen by the eyes as much as possible.

The standard for completing the first stage is to throw with your eyes closed, let the ball bounce on the wall and the ground once, and be able to reach out and catch it.

The second stage is to hear the sound of a tennis ball landing 30 meters away in a complex environment and accurately judge the position.

The third stage is to be able to catch the tennis ball that hits you by identifying the sound of the tennis ball...

The fourth stage, the fifth stage, the sixth stage...

The military's training method emphasizes simplicity, which is to save money. It is said that when the company provides the exploration team with corresponding training for the shadow implant, they use special machines in a special venue, and there is a whole team to escort them. Zhuang Xuteng looked at the tennis ball in his hand and knew that he could not compete with the company's elite in terms of spending, but he could compete with them in terms of "heart".

"Although it is just throwing a tennis ball, you must raise your own requirements and practice to achieve a training effect that exceeds that of simply throwing a tennis ball."

Zhuang Xuteng's plan is to practice the skill of "throwing" more and reach the level of proficiency. This idea is related to his previous encounters. Whether it is a stun grenade or a fragmentation grenade, the effect on the battlefield is often higher than that of a ghost energy bomb.

You must practice your shooting skills, and you must practice your grenades even more, because grenades have many functions! Besides, grenades can be thrown to places without sight, you can throw them behind a bunker, throw them before opening a road, or throw them from behind. Your hands won't hurt when you throw them, and even if you throw them for a day, you won't have any sequelae from the shadow. The only problem is that grenades cost money, and it hurts to spend money.

But this only problem is not without a solution. Zhuang Xuteng looked at the engineering drawings of the fragmentation grenades brought by Morgana, which contained detailed manufacturing methods and even drew the rune array that controlled the shadow. Zhuang Xuteng recalled carefully and thought of some handwritten fragments next to the rune array. It is estimated that they taught Morgana how to modify the grenade so that it would explode according to her requirements.

The original engineering drawings plus the modification opinions can verify each other, which opens up the possibility of modifying the grenade yourself. Zhuang Xuteng continued to deepen his memory, combined with the technical experience of manufacturing pistols, hoping to explore the method of making his own grenades. Grenades do not require special steel. Iron, aluminum, and even stone can be used as raw materials. The rest are shadow slaves and some chemical additives.

"However, you can buy homemade shadow guns on the black market, but you can't buy homemade grenades - is this a problem of channel control or the result of different production difficulties?" Zhuang Xuteng was thinking while throwing the ball. Maybe the manufacture of grenades is not as simple as he thought.

Even if you can't make it yourself, there are ways to buy it. PCPD's equipment has always been the main product on the black market, especially non-lethal weapons that have no coding and no one will check it if you lose it. Although it is far from the point of being in large quantities, as long as you are willing to pay, you can always buy one or two on the black market every time, and the price fluctuates between 1,000 and 1,800 euros.

Well... I still think it's expensive when I think about it. If you can make it yourself, you should not be controlled by others.

After a day of observation in the hospital, the wound healing speed and physical adaptability were better than expected, and Zhuang Xuteng was ordered to leave the hospital. He moved back to the base of operations in the warehouse area and threw tennis balls against the wall every day. There is an advantage of practicing here. There is basically no one in the entire warehouse area. The surroundings are very quiet and there is little interference from sound, which can improve his practice efficiency. Compared with an apartment, a warehouse has a larger area for a single room. The more points the tennis ball lands, the more practical the practice is.

I have to say that the ear implant selected by Dr. Hei is in good condition and has little side effects. He felt no discomfort about a day after being discharged from the hospital. His hearing has been significantly enhanced, and he can distinguish more details and hear farther, but he always feels a little noisy around him, and he will feel upset after a long time - this is a manifestation of the brain wanting to save energy and be lazy.

In addition to fatigue, monotonous and repetitive training is also constantly wearing out his patience. Especially when he closed his eyes and failed to catch the rebounding tennis ball, he had to stand up and use crutches to pick up the ball. The tennis ball would roll around and run into the tables, chairs or equipment. These trivial matters provided him with a lot of extra pressure.

Once, Zhuang Xuteng was really annoyed, and he closed his eyes and raised his hand to shoot a bone spear at the rebounding tennis ball.

Puff! The sound was a bit wrong. It sounded like the bone spear did not hit the wall, but broke the tennis ball in the air? Zhuang Xuteng opened his eyes quickly, only to see the scattered tennis ball fragments. The green short hairs were the last evidence of the existence of the tennis ball.

Can't catch it with your hands but can hit it with the bone spear? Zhuang Xuteng's first reaction was that a blind cat caught a dead mouse. So he took out another tennis ball - buy ten get one free promotion - closed his eyes and threw it out, listened to the echo, and then tracked and fired with the bone spear.

There were more green short hairs in the air and on the ground. After many tests, the result was still the same.

"I understand... I can't catch the tennis ball because of my clumsy hands, not my hearing. I can already use hearing to mark the target and successfully trigger the tracking function of the bone spear. And..." Zhuang Xuteng touched his arm and nodded with satisfaction: "It doesn't hurt at all, and there is no numbness like suppressing fog inhalation. Eh? Strange, Morgana also uses this implant, why does she still suppress fog inhalation? At the critical moment of life and death, it is unlikely that she will deliberately suppress her combat ability, right?"

Zhuang Xuteng thought about it and felt that there was a difference in the level of side effects between the bone spear spell and the firearm. If he fired a gun, the effect of his arms adapting to the implants might not be so good. So he took out the bone spear pistol, used the old can shells he picked up as targets, and tried to fire a few shots.

"It still hurts and feels numb, but it's much better than when I didn't use the implants on my arms, and it's reduced by about one third." Since the pain level of the Shadow Gun is cumulative, the pain reduction affects both the base value and the increase. When firing continuously, a one-third reduction can almost double the total firing volume; if the firing frequency is reduced, plus the recovery effect brought by physical fitness, the amount of ammunition for the whole day can be about four times the previous amount.

In this way, Morgana's performance can be explained. After putting down the low-power gun, Morgana used the gun she picked up from the enemy. The gun focused on small size and hiding, and did not reduce the power, so the side effects would definitely be sacrificed. It's a pity that Morgana took the gun away as a souvenir, otherwise she would have taken it and fired two shots to try, and there would be more information. Zhuang Xuteng can only guess now that the side effects of the semi-invisible gun are at a similar level to the guns of the Wild Monkey Gang.

But the problem is only half solved: Why doesn't it hurt to use the bone spear technique directly without the help of firearms? Does this mean unlimited firepower?
