Chapter 42 - Shredica (5)

I carefully positioned the device on Shredica's head, ensuring that the electrodes made precise contact with her scalp. The device's intricate network of wires and sensors began to hum softly as it powered up. I initiated the sequence, watching as the device's display lit up with complex patterns of shifting lights and data streams.

The device, a high-tech amalgamation of neuro-stimulation and memory modulation technology, was designed to interface directly with the brain's neural pathways. Its primary function was to alter memory encoding and retrieval processes. The settings were calibrated to access and modify the regions of the brain responsible for memory formation and cognitive functions.
