The Card Apprentice Chapter 220

That wasn't the first situation where Chen Mu had encountered a loss of perceptual control, so he didn't get flustered . In truth, he hadn't gone through any systematic study about how to control perception . What he could do was partly from his conjecture according to the principles elaborated in the mysterious card, and the rest was from his own explorations .

The perceptual spring coil's composition was something he'd thought up out of thin air . So, he wouldn't be surprised if some strange situation appeared with his perception .

But, he was clear that once his perception really lost control, it could hurt Sue Lochiro . Her perception had a mild quality, while his had a powerful aggressiveness . No one could be certain what would happen in the sudden shock of losing control, but whether good or bad, something would happen .

The marvel of perception was something only a handful of people in that world could understand clearly, and that handful certainly didn't include Chen Mu .

By comparison, Sue Lochiro was clear about the dangers of near-field perception . That was why she had never used it before . Also, the technology was advanced by that time, and there were countless kinds of examining instruments . She was using the most advanced equipment .

But, the devices hadn't detected Chen Mu's physical peculiarities, so she had thought of that method . What she hadn't thought about was that it would be so embarrassing . To be a doctor naturally meant you would be very familiar with the human body and wouldn't be any stranger to the male body either . But, to perceive it so clearly and so close-up was something she had encountered without having mentally prepared herself . So, she naturally had a powerful reaction .

Chen Mu didn't know anything about that . He didn't even know why her perception had fluctuated . The biggest problem was that he didn't have any great way to restrain the restless perception in his own body .

Given his pitiful understanding of perception, he had exhausted all of his efforts .

That was no exaggeration . All of Chen Mu's his concentration was focused on that compressed perception . He didn't have any more perception to use as a medium, added to which was his high degree of concentration . He would have lost any connection with the outside world from any point of view .

If anyone wanted to kill him then, it would be trivial .

Sue Lochiro was silently surprised . The fluctuations between them were subtle, and she could clearly perceive him . That sort of understanding was a direct perceptual understanding, which was a lot more rapid and realistic than any other mode of understanding .

She couldn't help but feel greatly appreciative of Chen Mu . Such appreciation wasn't because of his demonstrated ability to control his powerful perception . That ability was truly powerful, but for a medical card artisan with higher requirements for accuracy, it wouldn't be so surprising .

The thing that surprised Sue Lochiro, and that she appreciated, was the calm and concentration Chen Mu demonstrated . To be so concentrated and cut off from the outside under such circumstances not only required courage, but it also required sufficient resolve .

From that aspect, Chen Mu wasn't only the most outstanding person she had ever encountered . To have such resolve while being so young was a first .

In that world, most geniuses would all have something out of the ordinary . But, if one imagined a more advanced development, that would require possessing still more qualities . Precise focus was a highly important quality among those .

This card artisan named Cao Dong clearly wasn't any ordinary person, even though she had never heard of him .

Sue Lochiro turned serious as she carefully let her perception slowly penetrate Chen Mu's body . That procedure was the most dangerous part of near-field perception . Every person's body had self-defense awareness, and card artisans were especially outstanding in that regard . When someone else's perception entered their body, it was easy to cause a reaction .

The process was slow, but under her control, her perception penetrated firmly . Since he'd said there was something wrong, and the instruments hadn't detected it, then it must have been buried too deeply or had a powerfully concealed nature .

By that time, Sue Lochiro had forgotten any of her embarrassment . Her concentration was not the least inferior to Chen Mu's .

Chen Mu's body was really like a battlefield, and her perception was like slowly advancing troops . They carefully searched everywhere there could be any issues without missing the tiniest thing .

A powerful, uncomfortable feeling was transmitted to Chen Mu's brain through his nerves . With his concentration completely focused on that compressed perceptual coil, Chen Mu didn't immediately realize her perception had entered his body . He didn't panic; the restless suppressed perception kept his mind empty and focused .

At the same time, Sue Lochiro's expression became still more serious . Her absolutely beautiful face, with eyes closed, didn't show any of the normal warm and cozy smiling expression . It was replaced by a very solemn expression .

She had discovered the anomaly!

Starting from Chen Mu's skin, her perception had slowly advanced . By then, Chen Mu's entire body was within the scope of her perception . That kind of full-line closing-in might have looked a little crude, but it was quite effective .

There was something there that would drill down deeper into Chen Mu's body once it touched her perception .

At the same time, it rattled her spirit . She was quite surprised .

What was it? Although she hadn't completely scanned it just then, she felt certain it was something .

Her heart surged with curiosity . She was quite indifferent to power and wealth, but if she encountered any kind of strange illness, she would become immediately excited . Having been encouraged, the speed of her perception's advance immediately increased .

How big could Chen Mu's body be? Everything inside had been searched by her perception in a short time . She had previously hoped to be able to understand it a little more deeply, and she tried to slow her advance . But, that acceleration had suddenly transformed the situation .

That thing was extremely flexible and slippery, as well as extremely vigilant . Sue Lochiro suspected it must be alive . Maybe a parasite, she thought to herself . As a high-grade medical card artisan, she had seen what might be called some very strange things . She didn't even know how many . Quite a few parasites were scary . Once they entered the body, whether one wanted to kill them or extract them, it was very difficult .

She was careful . If it really was a parasite, then it was the first or second most troublesome she'd ever seen .

It suddenly stopped!

She was overjoyed as she scanned that unidentified object over and over with her light-wave-like perception .

Good lord! What is it? She carefully observed every aspect of that unidentified object in her surprise . The flexible and agile object was actually a hair-fine green thread!

A roundworm? It didn't look like it . Although the green thread was fine, it was shockingly long . It went throughout Chen Mu's body like it had become a capillary . If it had been red and wasn't moving, Sue Lochiro couldn't be certain she ever would have found it .

Such a fine roundworm could never have grown so long .

She finally understood what Chen Mu was suffering from . There was a green thread in his body that could drill anywhere at any time . That certainly wouldn't be any fun . She'd already felt how tough it was . Because she'd caught it with her perception, it was now tightly stuck to Chen Mu's bones as though there were a layer of fine green mesh covering them .

She couldn't help but frown . What was that? She couldn't make any accurate judgment for a while . For a high-grade medical card artisan, that was something not seen often . But, she couldn't match it to any of the information in her head .

Lost in thought, Sue Lochiro didn't realize the danger approaching .

Her perception slowly became unstable like a current stirred up from the bottom of a river . It started to interact constantly and with impact .

When Sue Lochiro realized something was wrong, the situation had already gone beyond her control . Having just wandered off to study the green thread, she hadn't been paying attention to her perception touching Chen Mu's perception . The perceptual spring, which had been compressed to its limit, was like an extremely dangerous powder keg that the slightest spark could explode!

Her perception was precisely such a spark .

Bam!

Struggling to suppress that perceptual spring, Chen Mu called out to himself how bad it was!

A storm had formed in a tenth of a second . The perceptual spring, which had been compressed into a ball, suddenly blew apart . Countless perceptual tendrils scattered violently, shooting off while the perceptual spring coil's main body suddenly expanded outward!

If it were only Chen Mu alone, that wouldn't have caused much of a problem . However, there was a different perception with different properties within the scope of his original perceptual control .

Having been caught off guard, Sue Lochiro couldn't react . Her perception had been engulfed by a bout of different perception .

If judging purely by quantity, although Chen Mu's perception was a little more powerful than hers, it wasn't that much stronger . But, because he had previously compressed it so much, the suddenly released impact immediately made Sue Lochiro lose control of her own perception .

What kind of transformation would two different-natured perceptions undergo when they were blended together?

Maybe Chen Mu didn't quite understand the inherent danger, but Sue Lochiro's face went abruptly white .

So Sue Lochiro could examine him more completely, Chen Mu had compressed his perception into an unimaginably tiny ball . Even though his control was a lot more powerful than before, the extremely compressed perceptions sudden fluctuation made him nearly lose control . That wasnt the first situation where Chen Mu had encountered a loss of perceptual control, so he didnt get flustered . In truth, he hadnt gone through any systematic study about how to control perception . What he could do was partly from his conjecture according to the principles elaborated in the mysterious card, and the rest was from his own explorations .
