Chapter: 54

Successfully built the envisioned nutritional sleep pod, Mark's tense nerves finally relaxed temporarily. He had been continuously conducting research, maintaining his brain's high-speed operation, and now he could clearly feel the warning signals his body was sending him.

After all, even though he had experienced disrupted sleep patterns before, he always ensured he had enough rest. But this time, he had truly pushed himself too far. His body, deprived of rest for a long time, showed various discomforts as a reminder not to overexert himself just because he was young and strong.

"The nutritional sleep pod is ready. Now, it's time to try it out and see how effective the nutrient solution I formulated is in repairing my fatigue."

Looking at the nutritional sleep pod in front of him, which hadn't undergone any safety testing yet, Mark was full of confidence in his creation. Without hesitation, he opened the pod door and lay inside, willingly becoming the first test subject to experience the sleep pod's functions.

Once he adjusted his posture and settled in, Mark reached out and pressed a button on the control panel on the wall of Pod. Soon, the responsive door started slowly closing.

As the door closed, the gentle ambient light inside the sleep pod turned on, enveloping Mark in a soft, pale blue glow.

Then, following the instructions on the touch screen of the door, Mark selected the regular recovery mode that didn't connect to the virtual reality host. In this mode, the user's consciousness wouldn't be blocked by the virtual reality host, allowing them to clearly feel the slow infusion of the nutrient solution and experience the sensation of being gradually submerged.

To be honest, if it were someone other than Mark experiencing this scene, facing the gradual submersion without being certain whether the nutrient solution could provide sufficient oxygen supply due to the electronic restructuring, it would likely induce fear and despair. It might even develop aquaphobia in an ordinary person.

However, as the liquid level rose gradually with the infusion of the nutrient solution, Mark simply closed his eyes calmly, with a serene and unwavering expression. From this, one could tell how much confidence Mark had in his own invention.

Finally, when the liquid completely covered Mark's mouth and nose, filling the entire chamber, Mark instinctively tried to breathe, but the action caused the nutrient solution to enter his windpipe, resulting in violent convulsions.

But as the nutrient solution flowed into Mark's body, gradually filling his lungs and trachea, the particle emitter that had already been activated inside the nutrient hibernation pod continuously accelerated and emitted electrons, generating intense chemical reactions when they collided with the nutrient solution molecules.

The nutrient solution molecules decomposed and recombined, continuously seeping into the gaps between Mark's cells and connecting with the neurons. During this process, oxygen, energy, and nutrients produced in reflection were directly absorbed and consumed by the cells in Mark's body, initiating a rapid metabolism and repairing the damage and toxins accumulated during his days of neglect.

After a short period of adaptation, Mark also became accustomed to this way of not needing to breathe through his lungs. He set a hibernation time on the touch screen and closed his eyes, falling into a deep sleep.

After Mark fell into a deep sleep, the nutrient solution material, which had been transformed into a nanometer scale through the bombardment of the nuclear core, continued to act on all the cells throughout Mark's body. Necrotic or mutated cells, as well as various toxins and waste produced by cell metabolism, began to be expelled from the body along with the residual nutrient solution in the intercellular spaces, under the effect of body osmotic pressure.

After the expulsion of this waste-containing fluid, a dark-colored stream of water could be clearly seen surging out of Mark's body, continuously spreading and contaminating the pure nutrient solution inside the hibernation pod.

However, Mark, who had already considered everything thoroughly, would not leave such a loophole. When the sensors inside the nutrient hibernation pod detected contamination of the nutrient solution, they immediately sent an alarm signal to the central computer. The computer's program, based on preset commands, automatically activated the body's circulation and filtration system.

Once the circulation and filtration system was activated, the nutrient solution in the pod began to be gradually drained into the filtration system for purification. After purification, the purified nutrient solution would be released back into the hibernation pod, and the computer would control the injection system to inject new nutrient solution to replenish the consumption during the entire repair process.

After this process had been carried out for a full two and a half hours, even before the predetermined hibernation time set by Mark had elapsed, he had already awakened from his slumber. And from the refreshed appearance he showed after waking up, it was evident that the effectiveness of the nutrient hibernation pod was indeed very powerful.

The entire course of body repair had been completed, and not only had Mark's mental state greatly improved, but more importantly, he had never felt his body to be so light and energetic before. This feeling of abundant energy fascinated him.

Without waiting for the set time to end, Mark directly clicked the terminate button. The nutrient solution inside the pod began to slowly drain, and at the same time, the computer activated the drying function to help remove the remaining liquid from the user's body surface and clothes.

The discharged nutrient solution, after filtration, would be redirected to the storage room, awaiting the next usage. However, if these nutrient solutions were not used again before the optimal use-by date, the hibernation pod would initiate a destruction program, completely decomposing them into harmless liquid and disposing of them in the company's waste treatment tank for centralized processing. Similarly, the filtered waste liquid would also be discharged into the waste treatment tank through the drainage pipe, awaiting professional treatment.

Chi—!

The pod door opened, and Mark, who was already completely dry, flipped out of the hibernation pod. Unable to restrain himself, as soon as his feet touched the ground, he performed a vertical jump, achieving an impressive 80 centimeters. It should be noted that this was a data that many exceptional athletes could achieve, and now Mark, a homebody who rarely exercised, effortlessly reached this result after one body repair session, truly astonishing.

"Baymax, come help me with a physical check-up!" Mark said to a small box on the experimental table.
