Genius Club-Chapter 980 - 53 Congratulations on Making the Shortlist

Chapter 980: Chapter 53 Congratulations on Making the Shortlist

“Fuck!”

Lin Xian exclaimed in shock.

Even though he was mentally prepared,

Even though he already knew Emperor Gao Wen would not concern himself with trivial matters,

But…

...

When he saw this entirely unexpected research outcome, Lin Xian was still greatly shaken.

Emperor Gao Wen.

He truly never follows the usual path, his way of thinking is different from ordinary people, always predicting Lin Xian’s predictions.

In The Fifth Dreamland, when Lin Xian opened Emperor Gao Wen’s notebook, thinking he had conducted some practical research like the Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid…

Emperor Gao Wen went straight to the stratosphere, flipping the “Principles of the Time Shuttle Machine” into play with a backhand.

Now in The Sixth Dreamland, while Lin Xian felt he was about to come out with some trendy, advanced theoretical research…

Emperor Gao Wen suddenly returned to basics, not forgetting his roots and moving back to the Hibernation School, digging into the issue of [Amnesia], a problem that numerous eras and scientists were unable to solve!

This must be what true genius is, right?

Human history has undergone several major changes, but tracing back to the source, they are all due to Gao Wen’s research breakthroughs.

Whereas himself…

Merely a hard-working little bee, a porter with neither complaints nor regrets.

“Didn’t they say Amnesia caused by long-term hibernation was an unavoidable side effect? How come it…”

While saying this,

Lin Xian suddenly realized.

He had misunderstood.

The side effect of Amnesia caused by long-term hibernation is indeed unavoidable.

Whether it’s children like Zheng Xiangyue, exceptional geniuses like Emperor Gao Wen, or Space-Time Travelers like the Blue-Eyed Girl…

In the face of the side effect of hibernation-induced Amnesia.

All are equal!

No matter who you are, no matter what race, as long as you sleep in the Hibernation Warehouse for over ten years, memory loss will inevitably occur; and as the duration of hibernation continues to extend, along with individual physical factors… When the hibernation exceeds 20 years, it’s highly likely all memories will be lost, the brain formatted, a clean slate.

Amnesia is bound to happen, this is a consensus in the scientific community.

But…

[Who says lost memories cannot be restored?]

Emperor Gao Wen indeed never disappoints.

When others only think about storing more memories with notebooks, video tapes… Emperor Gao Wen has already taken a different path, starting to research how to restore lost memories!

Lin Xian held the notebook with great respect, looking at the last word of the handwritten preface—

Neural Electrocution Helmet.

This thing sounds full of imagery, just like Professor Yang’s thunderbolt treasure used specifically for treating internet addiction, it’s roughly a helmet-shaped device that can be buckled on the head, then release electric current to electrocute the brain, in hopes of restoring memory.

The specific principle Lin Xian was unclear of.

However, judging by the name of the device, it should be similar to what he had guessed.

Lin Xian turned his head to look at Gao Wen:

“Brother Gao Wen, since you’ve already researched such a thing, why not publish it? Even if you don’t publish it… at least keep one for yourself, in this way, when you wake up from the Hibernation Pod, we could put the helmet on and shock you, wouldn’t you be able to regain your original memory?”

“This invention is too amazing, I can’t even imagine, once we’ve overcome the biggest side effect of the Hibernation Pod, then hibernation would become a risk-free, zero-cost form of travel, and the last bit of fear people have about hibernation will disappear… Hibernation will probably truly become a social norm.”

“But how exactly does this device restore lost memories? Are there any restrictions on its use?”

Facing Lin Xian’s admiration.

Gao Wen shook his head cluelessly:

“I don’t know? I’m seeing this, this Neural Electrocution Helmet… for the first time too, probably even less than you understand. Asking me such a professional question, I can’t answer either?”

“I can’t figure out either why I didn’t make it public before going into hibernation if I had already researched such a miraculous product?”

With questions in mind, the two opened the notebook’s cover.

They discovered…

Between the title pages, there was actually a plastic-sealed handwritten letter.

Judging by the handwriting, it was written by the same person who wrote on the cover; therefore, it goes without saying that this letter should be from Emperor Gao Wen before hibernation, written to his post-hibernation self.

“Can I have a look?”

Lin Xian sought Gao Wen’s opinion, after all, it was Gao Wen’s privacy.

“Sure.”

Gao Wen felt no real sentiment and casually said:

Follow current novels on freewebnσvel.cѳm.

“Let’s read it together.”

Given permission.

Lin Xian took the plastic-sealed handwritten letter, placed it in front of both of them, and read the text together—

[The future me, long time no see:

When you see this letter, you must have just woken up from the Hibernation Pod, with a blank mind, not knowing who you are, not knowing where you are.

Regarding the question of who you are, you can refer to other notebooks and video footage. There’s detailed documentation there, which will help you understand everything about being Gao Wen… that is, me now, writing this letter, your past, Gao Wen.

Since we were young, we have been particularly interested in the Hibernation Pod—the romantic and epic feeling of humanity resisting fate with technology, spanning the river of time, often fascinated us on every whimsical night.

From that moment on, we resolved to devote ourselves to the research of the hibernation industry when we grew up, to play our part.

However, after growing up we found, sadly, that due to the early commencement of the hibernation technology, it had already matured over two hundred years. The latest Hibernation Pod has almost no adverse effects on the body except for the unavoidable side effect of amnesia. Therefore… in the field of technology, there is no longer a need to continue research.
