After chatting a bit more, Xiang Kun finally managed to make Tang Baona “forget” the incident, at the cost of ten meals.
Through their conversation, he discovered that Tang Baona wasn’t actually angry. It was mostly in a joking manner, she didn’t even seem bothered by the misunderstanding from her co-workers when she accidentally played that sentence in the office.
After “extorting” ten meals from Xiang Kun, the expressions she sent seemed to him as if Tang Baona was rather “smug”.
Xiang Kun pondered a bit and thought that Tang Baona must believe in his integrity, knowing that he’s not that kind of man.
Yes, that should be the case.
Around 9 a.m., Xiang Kun packed the twelve Minion woodcarvings into a supermarket plastic bag and headed out. He planned to go to a crowded place to test their effect, to see if increasing the quantity would have any effect.
Previously, it seemed like these wood carvings, after his “Emotional Infusion”, could make him perceive the emotions of the closest people around when directly in touch with them, or if they were close enough.
However, their emotional influence on the people around could only happen after they fell deeply asleep. Xiang Kun suspected that the power of this kind of influence was not enough, so he wanted to use more identical “emotionally infused” carvings for testing, to try and see if he can influence others while they’re awake.
So, Xiang Kun went to the subway station, waited a bit, then got on the most crowded train. In this kind of environment, holding a plastic bag against others wouldn’t seem strange.
However, after boarding the train and starting to attune to the wood carvings, Xiang Kun was taken aback, finding himself wanting to slap his forehead.
He just now realized that he was not able to simultaneously attune to two or more “emotionally infused” items!
When he first started to attune to items that he had established “Super Sensory Contact” with, he lacked brain “threads”. Therefore, he could only focus on one item at a time. Afterwards, his brain got used to quietly handling in “multi-threading”, so the problem of simultaneous attunement became less significant.
In cases where the items of “Super Sensory Contact” were close at hand, he didn’t even need to attune, but could control them as if they were extensions of his limbs. This was like when he flipped coins, he didn’t need to deliberately attune but could control the coin to land on the side he wanted.
So, when he was attuning to “emotionally infused” items, since there were only three samples, and his attention was on perceiving dreamland, he didn’t consider simultaneous attunement. He only tested and found that these could influence dreamlands – a single item could only influence one person at a time and there was a “cooldown” for the same item to influence again.
But now, standing in the subway carriage, Xiang Kun realized that he’d overlooked this important issue before carving the twelve Minions. He’d just found out that he could only attune to one Minion wood carving at a time!
Even though all these wood carvings were “emotionally infused” with the same emotion, he couldn’t simultaneously attune to another!
So by his previous conjecture: the “emotionally infused” items could only work when he was attuning to them, it was as if he had a 12 -core processor and could only use one core at a time.
What’s the use of that?!
His idea of quality changes arising from quantity couldn’t be achieved at all.
Xiang Kun was a bit frustrated, had he made this “Twelve Minion Formation” for nothing?
Was it that he could not establish multiple connections simultaneously
because it involved “emotion”?
What frustrated him more was that he hadn’t considered this beforehand, it was actually a simple matter. He could just attune at the same time, before he carved the “Twelve Minions”, he had more than one “emotionally infused” item.
Xiang Kun quietly warned himself. He knew that, through various kinds of training, his brain was able to give several plans and solutions almost “instinctively” at the first moment when encountering problems, after a few evolutionary mutations triggered by drinking blood.
These plans and solutions were actually thought out by himself, but they came from the “inherent responsive” parts of his brain, trained intensively, so they didn’t require much “deep thinking.”
For most matters, these plans and solutions were already sufficiently well thought out, and there was no need to waste time on “deep thought,” just making a “choice” was enough.
