Head development track record of Lucy. 陆安在整理大脑开发方面的资料,根据超体里的记录来说。超体的脑袋开发记录。 20 can hear very far person speech, the perspective/see through, sees memory in others brain. 20可以听到很远的人说话,透视,看到别人大脑里的记忆 40 can control others' body, has the superpower, overcomes the gravity. 40可以控制别人的身体,拥有超能力,克服重力。 60 times can see the electromagnetic wave, the naked eye looks at the signal that others telephone. 60的时候能看到电磁波,肉眼看别人打电话的信号。 70 : 00 can the absorbed energy, attract from the computer...... 70时可以吸收能量,从电脑上面吸…… Is a bit like the superpower, finally rises to have the space and time ability. 有点像超能力,最后才升维拥有时空能力。 Lu An shakes the head, the movie is the movie, A'Xia is eventually different. 陆安摇了摇头,电影终究是电影,阿夏不一样。 These bewildered superpowers, are the artistic processing impose, only credible, possibly is absorbed energy aspect, is not that simple and crude, but raises the conversion rate to very strong degree. 那些莫名其妙的超能力,都是艺术加工强加上的,唯一靠谱的,可能就是吸收能量这方面,也不是那么简单粗暴,而是把转化率提高到很强的程度。 He speculated, what the brain develops are most controls itself, many responses of body are passive, if can control completely, in many things like chivalric fiction novel can achieve. Like practicing martial arts and immortal cultivation, one is from outside to inside, one from inside to outside, the ultimate goal is to control oneself, strengthens the body, explores the potential of body. 他推测,大脑开发最多的还是控制自身,身体的很多反应都是被动的,如果能完全把控,像武侠小说里的很多事都能做到。就像练武、修仙,一个是由外向内,一个由内向外,最终的目的都是掌控自身,强化身体,发掘身体的潜力。 For example He Qingqing, the nail is harder than the bone, this is an evolution of body. 比如何清清,指甲比骨头还硬,这就是一种身体的进化。 Again for example sensation of pain, this is a passive protection mechanism, if can control itself, should be able to turn the passive situation into initiative, without the need, can make the sensation of pain that not affect own movement...... for example to make the adrenalin rise dramatically again on own initiative, controls itself to be tranquil again is practices martial arts thing that can probably achieve. 再比如痛觉,这是一种被动的保护机制,如果能掌控自身的话,应该能化被动为主动,在不需要的时候,可以让痛觉不那么影响自己的动作……再比如主动让肾上腺素飙升,再控制自己平静下来好像都是练武可以做到的事。 By mortal's body speculation god, the itself/Ben is the far-fetched matter. 以凡人之身推测神,本就是不靠谱的事。 Xia Hui is also eating the lotus seed , she became a salt fish, supinely on sofa idle. 夏茴也在吃莲子,一口一个,她成了一条咸鱼,仰在沙发上无所事事。 „Do you want to eat?” “你要吃吗?” Un?” Lu An turns head, Xia Hui threw one to come directly, draws the parabola to fall on the Lu An mouth. “嗯?”陆安回头,夏茴直接扔了一颗过来,划过抛物线正正地落在陆安嘴里。 Lu An:?? 陆安:?? Xia Hui:?! 夏茴:?! Two people look at each other in blank dismay. 两个人面面相觑。 I am quite fierce!” The Xia Hui surprised say/way, comes again one time, comes again one time!” “我好厉害!”夏茴惊讶道,“再来一次,再来一次!” „......” “……” Lu An spits is not, chewing also thought that is not quite right, for a while stiffens, is taking a look at Xia Hui. 陆安吐出去也不是,嚼也觉得不太对,一时僵住,瞅着夏茴 If she once became a god, why will choose to turn into now this? 如果说她曾经成了一个神,为什么会选择变成现在这样? Is a girl, compared with being a god? 难道做个女孩子,比做个神更好吗? Is this choice of A'Xia? 这是阿夏的选择?
