Hogwarts: I'm just here to enjoy the magic

"By the way, are those guys called the living dead?"

Levina returned to the conversation.

"Why? Is it because their disease can no longer be cured and they can only be treated as dead?"

"You can understand that." Nancy nodded.

"I see..." Levina understood somewhat, "Then, why are you here?"

As soon as I asked the question, it suddenly dawned on me.

"I remembered, you seem to be a researcher! So, do you know how this epidemic, or these living dead, appeared? Or even... were you directly responsible for it?"

"You know too much!" Nancy was very surprised. "So this information is not as secret as you imagined?"

"Accidents are all accidents. I just know a little bit about it." Levina smiled awkwardly, "So, can you tell me the details?"

"Details..." Nancy looked around and said, "This is not a good place to talk. Are you sure you want to talk here?"

Regarding Nancy's response, Levina did not rush to answer, but asked: "Then what were you planning to do before?"

"I came to see my father." Nancy sighed.

"Ah?" Levina was dumbfounded, "Looking for your father? Are you still looking?"

When she first met Nancy, Nancy was looking for her father.

just now……

It's been over a day, why are you still looking?

"It's not what you think." Nancy knew that Levina had misunderstood, "Actually, after I found out the specific information from you yesterday, I found him, met with him, and chatted with him. But, last night, Something happened that made me look for it all over again.”

"Last night...you mean...your father was taken away?" Levina immediately thought of this.

"You weren't caught?" The surprise on Nancy's face almost never stopped. Soon, she also figured it out, "That's right. The fact that you are still alive and kicking proves that you have not become fertilizer."

"Fertilizer?" Levina suspected that she heard wrongly.

Is fertilizer what she knows?

"Forget it, it's all said and done. I'll tell you what I know. Otherwise, you'll always be surprised and find it difficult to communicate." Nancy sighed.

After organizing her language a little, she stated her experience to Levina.

This matter, generally speaking, can be started from the source.

After the first epidemic broke out, Nancy, who was still a toddler, was lucky enough to awaken her spiritual power.

Because of her age, she was sent to the research institute and became a researcher.

A researcher specially used for research.

The people responsible for studying her were several researchers with noble backgrounds, led by the deputy director of the institute, Yeshan.

Let’s not mention how bloody, barbaric, and inhumane the research process is.

After a long period of research, Yeshan discovered that awakened beings could be created artificially.

The big shots above were ecstatic about such a discovery.

What is an Awakener?

The Awakened are the force and power of the new era.

As long as you master the method of awakening, it may not be a problem to connect the entire planet.

So the big shot ordered Yeshan to conduct more detailed research.

Come up with absolutely reliable artificial awakening methods as soon as possible. And it needs to be something that can be widely promoted and officially mass-produced.

It's best to keep the price low.

For Yeshan, who was born in a noble family, the orders of big shots were one thing, but he himself had his own ideas.

Compared with the absolutely reliable awakening process, he prefers to create absolutely controllable awakened people.

An awakened person who obeys orders [-]% after awakening.

For this purpose, he conducted more detailed research.

Generally speaking, it was at this time that Nancy changed from an object of research to a real staff member participating in the research.

"However, I am just a handyman in the whole project." When Nancy said this, she was half self-deprecating and half happy.

What normal person likes to be studied all the time?

She doesn't like it anyway.

Being a formal researcher is much better than being a guinea pig being studied.

"It's precisely because I'm a handyman that I don't know the in-depth inside story." Nancy sighed, "I only know that Vice President Yeshan has mastered a very special technique."

It is also a very vicious technique.

According to Yeshan's research, the bodies of those who are awakened are no longer mortals. He carries a special substance that can awaken people.

Yeshan called that substance the X factor.

The X factor is not a dead thing, on the contrary, it is a living thing.

Yeshan discovered that as long as the X factor is cultivated in a suitable environment, the X factor will increase rapidly.

"Sorry, let me interrupt." Levina raised her hand, "Although I haven't read many books, but according to what you are saying now, shouldn't the X factor be some kind of virus? Or bacteria or something like that? Yes. After all, it is a living creature and can reproduce."

"That's not the case." Nancy shook her head repeatedly, "The X factor is something we cannot observe. At least, it cannot be seen with the existing methods. Its existence can only be determined through various verifications."

Levina couldn't understand Nancy's explanation.

Jack, who had been listening in, actually understood.

The so-called X factor should be the ascendant.

People in this world cannot see ascended ones.

Since you can't see it, you can't tell whether it's a virus or a bacterium.

Looking at it this way, X Factor is the most appropriate name at the moment.

"Okay, I was too ignorant. I shouldn't have interrupted you so casually. I'm sorry." Levina scratched her head awkwardly and apologized slightly, "You continue."

"Yeah...it's okay." Nancy smiled, "We just mentioned that Vice President Yeshan has the means to cultivate the X factor..."

Nancy continued.

Yeshan's method is actually very crazy. Strictly speaking, it should be called crazy.

The specific operation process is to first collect the corpses of the awakened ones and then smash them into meat paste.

Yes, literally smashed.

Then, some chemicals are used to catalyze the meat paste to accelerate their decay.

After these meat sauces produce mucus as they decay, the mucus is collected and purified.

Eventually, a drug called the Awakening Potion is obtained.

"As long as these drugs are put into the human body, there is a chance that people will awaken." Nancy, the narrator, looked ugly when she said this.

There is no way, what Yeshan did is really disgusting.

"Okay, you artificially created awakened ones, you probably know what's going on." Levina groped her arms tremblingly. She felt a little chilly. These things were really scary. "What about the living dead?" The same thing?"
