Chapter 1405 The Ferryman Regains Consciousness

The crystal box in the ferryman's hand fell to the ground, and the culture dish inside was overturned. The green viscous nutrient solution slowly flowed on the floor tiles of the bathroom, forming a pattern with strange colors and completely irregular shapes.

Shi Lei stood under the shower and watched all this silently. He knew that the ferryman had completed the transfer of consciousness and memory.

If consciousness and memory are regarded as a sign of a person's existence, then the disgusting green nutrient solution on the ground now is the real ferryman.

With a muffled sound, Shi Lei raised his head and saw the ferryman's body shaking and falling towards the door frame.

Shi Lei knew that this was because the ferryman's body had been completely affected by the blue card. Although only the surface of the body had become as hard as diamond, it was enough to make his body muscles lose the ability to move.

This would not cause the ferryman's heart to stop beating, and it should not have caused the detonators connected to his heartbeat to explode.

However, because his body surface was completely stiff, his heart was still beating, but this beating could no longer be transmitted to the surface of the body. The electrodes of the detonator tied to the ferryman were connected to the surface of his body. He couldn't connect the electrodes directly to his heart.

The muscles completely lost the frequency of following the slight vibration of the heart, and the electrodes judged that the ferryman's heartbeat had stopped, so the detonator exploded. But because the ferryman's body was now extremely hard, his whole body was hard enough to resist any bullets and explosives, so the explosion of the detonator could only shake his body and make him fall down.

The ferryman fell headfirst on the floor of the bathroom, and the floor tiles could not withstand such a hard collision, and they broke into pieces. Many of the floor tile fragments flew towards Shi Lei, but fell to the ground less than five centimeters from Shi Lei's body surface.

When using the diving card, the space where Shi Lei was located could never be broken by external forces.

This means that even those nano-scale embryos could not detect Shi Lei's existence. Even if Shi Lei could not see them, he was still sure that these embryos could not break through the obstacles of space and enter his body.

According to the ferryman's memory, Shi Lei knew that if these nano-scale embryos lost the supplement of nutrient solution and could not find a living organism to invade within ten minutes, they would all die.

Staying under the shower, Shi Lei did not dare to move at all. He was afraid that if he left the liquid, he would be exposed to those nano-scale embryos and invaded by them.

The hot water continued to flow down, gradually flowing from Shi Lei's feet to the outside of the shower room.

Ten minutes later, the hot water had covered the layer of green nutrient solution. Under the dilution of the bath water, the nutrient solution quickly became lighter and lighter, and the area expanded to almost fill the entire bathroom. Only at the position of Shi Lei's feet, the nutrient solution could not invade due to the obstruction of the space barrier.

As time passed, the color of the nutrient solution had faded and could not be seen. Under the continuous coverage of the water flow, most of these nutrient solutions should have been flushed into the sewer.

But Shi Lei still stood under the shower. The diving card lasted for thirty minutes. He felt that it would be more reliable to completely use up these thirty minutes.

Thirty minutes seemed like a whole century to Shi Lei now. Standing motionless under the shower, it was really uncomfortable.

Looking at the ferryman lying on the ground, his body was surrounded by bath water, but because his body and clothes were as hard as diamonds, he didn't get wet. Shi Lei could only smile bitterly.

Stepping over the ferryman's body, Shi Lei looked at the water dripping from his body and smiled bitterly.

Walking into the bedroom, Shi Lei found the ferryman's clothes, and after quickly drying himself, he changed into the ferryman's clothes.

Although a little disgusted, it was better than being soaked.

Returning to the living room, Shi Lei looked at the table of wine and food. He knew that the ferryman was not dead yet, and those nano-scale embryos were nowhere to be found. Shi Lei suddenly wanted to know what state the ferryman, who had lost consciousness and memory, would be in after the effect of the blue card was over.

Would he be like a vegetative person, unconscious and unconscious?

Sitting at the table, Shi Lei poured himself a drink.

The wine was not a good one, but Shi Lei enjoyed it very much at the moment.

After another half an hour, the effect of the blue card should have passed. Shi Lei put down the wine glass, stood up, and walked to the door of the bathroom.

He saw that the ferryman on the ground moved, and his clothes were quickly soaked by the water stains left on the floor tiles. After soaking for an hour, it was not wet at all, but in just a dozen seconds, the ferryman was already soaked all over.

Watching the ferryman's body constantly moving, like a person who had been asleep for a long time and just woke up, Shi Lei couldn't help but frowned.

How can he still be so lively after losing consciousness and memory? What kind of scene will this be? Zombies are generally unconscious, and they will only bump around like a headless fly?

Shi Lei saw the ferryman slowly climb up from the ground, and he couldn't help but subconsciously step back a few steps, standing in a darker place in the living room, observing everything in the bathroom.

The ferryman finally got up from the ground and uttered a joyful voice: "Hahaha, it worked..."

But his voice soon stopped.

Because he had seen his own clothes, which were his own clothes, not Shi Lei's.

He turned his head suddenly, and didn't even notice that Shi Lei was staring at him coldly in the living room. He looked madly at the mirror in the bathroom, but what he saw was that extremely familiar face.

This face has been with him for more than 40 years, so he is of course very familiar with it.

But at this moment, shouldn't he see Shi Lei's face in the mirror? Shouldn't his consciousness and memory have entered Shi Lei's body?

"Why? Why is this happening! Why!" The ferryman was almost going crazy. He kept scratching his face, shouting with a hideous and extremely distorted face, hysterical, and completely fell into a state of madness.

Shi Lei also frowned. It seemed that the ferryman had recovered his consciousness and memory, but what he read from the ferryman's memory when he was in the state of the seventh sense before was that once the consciousness and memory were injected into the embryo, the original body would completely lose consciousness and memory and die after a period of time.

During this period of time, there was no clear value in the ferryman's memory. Shi Lei believed that it was because he did not care about this. In the doctor's memory, there must be complete values.

However, the current ferryman seemed to have never lost consciousness and memory. Why is this?

Shi Lei touched his chin, puzzled, and pondered.

Could it be that those embryos returned to the ferryman's body after failing to find a new life form? Or, the whole so-called transfer of consciousness and memory was simply an international joke played by the doctor on the ferryman?

Shi Lei was not completely sure, but no matter what, he was still him, and the ferryman was still the ferryman.

After the ferryman went crazy for a while, he was also completely collapsed. He turned around and finally saw Shi Lei in the living room.

"Why are you still here... Why didn't I take your body... What is going on?"

The ferryman shouted hysterically and rushed towards Shi Lei.
