Psychostabilizers, also known as K-type-GD3NM drugs, are the oldest drugs currently in existence in the interstellar space. It is said to have existed long before the era. It is the earliest drug known to mankind that has historical records but cannot be accurately traced.
In the early years, it did not actually have such a mild name that sounded like an auxiliary and harmless medicine. Instead, it was a clinical medicine called K-GD3NM launched by the Human Star Shift Project, also known as a human body transformation agent.
It was initially developed to help fragile humans adapt to the interstellar environment after leaving their home planet. It extracted radioactive uranium floating in the universe, which was a hundred times more accurate than the uranium that could be artificially extracted from the home planet.
This processed radioactive uranium material can transform the fragile human body and nervous system, allowing humans to adapt to the radiation-filled cosmic environment.
However, there are gains and losses, and the first generation of explorers must pay a greater price than ordinary people. Because technology cannot keep up, the extraction method depends entirely on trial and error. Extracting this kind of radioactive uranium material has become an extremely dangerous job. Frontline workers basically spend months instead of years, and most of them do not live to be 30 years old.
The user will also be tortured by the radioactive uranium. Most of the uranium left in the medicine will remain in the user's body, tormenting them for the rest of their lives.
Thanks to these pioneers, the paths they opened up became wider and wider. In the process, humans also mastered more and more advanced technologies, and then gradually occupied a place among the various races in the stars.
Today, humans have survived into the Eighth Star Era and are no longer troubled by cosmic radiation. They can live over 500 years on average, and have developed powerful brains and mental powers in the process of species evolution.
Mental stabilizers have also been improved over generations and are no longer as dangerous as they were in the first few generations. Although they also contain radioactive uranium, they are extracted layer by layer and their content is accurately adjusted to the limit that the human brain can accept.
Therefore, interstellar people now have the physical fitness to naturally accept and absorb a certain amount of radioactive uranium substances. Except for the human brain and mental power which appear to be fragile and more sensitive in this regard, the simple physical body is no longer disturbed by radioactive uranium substances.
Therefore, the K-GD3NM, a human body modification agent that was once regarded as a life-giving agent by countless humans, gradually withdrew from the stage of human body modification drugs and gradually became a drug specifically used for mental adjustment. Later, it was renamed as a mental stabilizer according to the New Interstellar Medical Canon.
Therefore, the essence of gene stabilizers is not as harmless as its name sounds. Because of the radioactive uranium in it, its effect is fierce for tens of thousands of years, and the human body has always been difficult to adapt to it.
That's why Xu Jia said that to Jiang Hui at that time, because taking gene stabilizers is really uncomfortable. It is said that every 1mg taken can experience the compressed pressure of the first generation of explorers exposed to cosmic radiation for a whole year.
This row of mental stabilizers contains a total of 2.5 mg of radioactive uranium, with five tubes in total, each tube containing 0.5 mg, and each tube is diluted thousands of times with the Sui Yan solution.
If humans who had not immigrated in the early times or had just immigrated and had not been strengthened took this amount, it would be enough to kill them. Even with the physique of the current interstellar people, it would provoke a certain degree of rejection reaction. It can be said to be one of the most unpopular drugs in the interstellar world. There was no one better.
However, this medicine has a strong effect on stabilizing and consolidating the mental state. The original body's file records that he had just experienced the second mental awakening, and encountered such an accident. His mental power was in a very unstable state, and only mental stabilizers could cure this instability.
It is also known that all those who have not fully awakened have experienced abnormal awakening during their development. Mental stabilizers are also prescription drugs that can activate abnormal awakening to a certain extent, but the interstellar government has very strict management of this drug and has not allowed citizens to circulate and use it privately so far. All usage records must be registered.
Jiang Hui didn't know any of this and thought that mental stabilizers were ordinary, expensive medicines.
She looked at the simple instructions provided by the hospital. The method of taking the medicine is relatively simple to swallow, and she is required to stay away from radioactive substances and large magnetic resonance imaging machines, and then wait for the medicine to be digested.
However, Jiang Hui's eyes fell on the lower part of the instructions for use, which almost covered half of the instructions. It reminded people that after taking it, it is very likely to produce a certain degree of rejection reaction. If you feel uncomfortable, you should report it to the hospital system immediately for timely diagnosis and treatment.
Jiang Hui: … This makes me more scared, right
But no matter where you are, you should still follow your doctor's advice.
She first followed the medical warning attached to the instructions, tried to turn off the high-power machines in the room, then took out a tube of psychotropic medication and swallowed it directly.
The fluorescent blue liquid melted in the mouth and quickly dissipated in the mouth like smoke, bringing with it a slight sweetness that quickly dissipated.
It seems... there is nothing special.
Suddenly, the girl who was sitting on the sofa and trying to recall the mental stabilizer froze.
"Dong Dong... Dong Dong... Dong Dong—" This is the sound of a beating heart, and the cardiovascular system keeps beating. The ears seem to be surrounded by a three-dimensional echo of the heartbeat.
The girl held her heart at some point, and took deep breaths as if she was short of oxygen. Veins popped out on her forehead and neck, and sweat dripped down her face like raindrops with every breath.
This was just the beginning. The abnormal twitching of the heart was the starting point. The blood vessels and veins that supply the heart to various parts of the body extended to the peripheral nerves... Jiang Hui felt as if his entire body was held up by some force that was too strong to be ignored, as if his flesh and bones were separated, and his soul was separated from his nerve centers.
“No no… No no…” Time was passing slower and slower, and she felt as if she could no longer breathe. Pain became the least noticeable feeling happening to her.
The girl fell heavily on the sofa, her eyes dazed. The empty medicine tube slid down her weak fingertips and finally hit the carpet with a muffled sound. Her palm was still pressing on her heart.
Jiang Hui felt that he had died inexplicably again. Otherwise, why would he feel that he was floating, as if he had no head or feet, and his consciousness and senses were diffuse and tended to expand.
She thought about it in a rather vague way, so there is a reason why humans feel that their souls will return to heaven after death. Perhaps when the soul leaves the body, it will feel like this.
When will she float to? Will it be when she can no longer feel her complete demise, or will she go to some other destination... Well, it seems like she has arrived
Jiang Hui felt his feet suddenly touch the ground.
