Chapter 684: Community
Even Holmes knows very little about Feister's past.
In a sense, Feist is the ancestor of an entirely new species, because he is not only human, but also has the genes of an invader.
It's probably not the first time I've done something like this, and I've learned a very painful lesson before. At the time of the creation of Feister, the invaders also created a world world for him, a completely independent world world. It's a subspace, but it's an extremely vast subspace.
Strictly speaking, the subspace is not created, but the existing space is highly compressed, and then expanded in another dimension, and connected with the original space through dimensionality reduction techniques, and the connecting surface may be a plane, a straight line or a point. The size of the subspace is determined by the space that is compressed and then expanded again, and by the person who created the subspace.
This is an extremely vast subspace, and it is completely an independent world.
There is land, there is sea, there is sky, there are mountains, hills, plains, rivers, lakes, clouds, and so on. Because it is not completely separated from the original space, that is, the earth, the environment of this subspace, and the physical properties that make up the space, are exactly the same as the earth.
To put it bluntly, it's a prison.
In this subspace, Feist lived for almost eight thousand years.
There was no hibernation, no long sleep, and lived in a normal way for eight thousand years!
It's unimaginable for anyone.
Although Chu Tianjiang came from more than 10,000 years ago, in the past 10,000 years, when Chu Tianjiang was really awake, it was only more than 30 years. Even in the space created for him by the great civilization, he was awake all the time, but it was a space with no concept of time at all. Because he couldn't feel the passage of time, Chu Tianjiang didn't feel how long it had passed, as if he was always living in a certain day.
Obviously, Feist's situation is completely different.
For more than 8,000 years, although the Adventist would communicate with Feist regularly in order to obtain experimental data, especially the data of experimental subjects, most of the time, Feist lived alone, and in order to survive, he had to do certain things over and over again.
For many people, let alone more than 8,000 years, even if it is 80 days, they will have a mental breakdown.
It is important to know that people are social animals, and no one can do without others. Even in a completely isolated environment, communication between people is extremely important. Even though Feist is very different from people, his foundation is still human, he will still feel lonely and lonely, he still wants to have a partner, he still wants to communicate with his peers, and he still wants to be cared for and cared for by others.
The problem is that he has no companions, let alone companions.
It was in this extreme environment that Fester underwent a change, a change on a spiritual level.
It was at this time that Uma appeared.
Obviously, Uma was not concocted by Fest, nor was he a doppelganger, but another consciousness that was generated in Fest's brain when he was extremely lonely, a consciousness that was closely related to Fest's own consciousness and was completely independent.
Spiritually, this is the multiple personality, i.e., Uma is another personality of Fest.
Of course, this statement is not entirely accurate.
That is, Uma is not a personality of Fest, at least never dominated Fest's consciousness.
Strictly speaking, in the beginning, Uma was only a spiritual being, much like a person that Fester had woven into his consciousness through his imagination, a person who only existed in his mind, a person who accompanied him through the long years, with whom he shared his joys and sorrows.
To put it more appropriately, it's a bit like the characters in a novel that the author of the novel makes up through his thinking.
It's unreal, but at least it gives Fester a companion.
Apparently, Uma has been around for a long time, perhaps thousands, and for those thousands of years she has been by Fest's side, at least in Fest's memory.
After listening to Uma's story, Chu Tianjiang was surprised, but he felt that all this was reasonable.
In fact, what Feist did, that is, to create a completely non-existent person in his consciousness, Chu Tianjiang also did similar things. In that space of the Great Civilization, the images of Nicol and the others were also created by Chu Tianjiang through consciousness, and they did not really exist. Although Nicol and the others were originally living people, in that space, the days Chu Tianjiang spent with them were all fictional.
Anyone else could have done the same thing.
"It's a pity that he only created you now, or a few months ago, to appear to him in a living form."
"Do you think he didn't want me to show up sooner?"
Chu Tianjiang didn't say it, but what he wanted to say was this.
"If I could, I would have come to him a long time ago. It wasn't until more than four years ago that he found a way to create me and make me human. ”
"What's the solution?"
"Perhaps, Holmes has told you that over the past five hundred years, Feist has fallen into a deep sleep every once in a while, and has slept longer and longer."
Chu Tianjiang was secretly surprised, because Holmes didn't mention this matter.
More than five hundred years ago, after the creation of Homs, Feist went into his first deep sleep. At the time, Feist told Holmes that he needed to get a deep night's sleep on a regular basis because of the amount of energy it took to get him to make him, as well as the unsuitable environment and the problems with his body.
Actually, this is not true.
For more than five hundred years, Feist had not slept at all.
He was created by the invaders and possessed the genes of the invaders, so unlike normal humans, Fest did not need to go to the surface of the water to regain his energy.
The so-called sleep is just not wanting to be disturbed by others.
If Feister had been awake, he would have to attend to the day-to-day affairs of the church, and only by claiming to be in a deep sleep could Feist leave the affairs of the church to Holmes and go on to more important things without making Holmes suspicious. The more important thing is to find a way to create Umah.
It doesn't seem that this is a difficult task.
With Fest's mastery of the arts, he could have created a body for an independent consciousness like Uma by cloning himself. Even if Feister needed a partner of the opposite sex, he was capable enough to create a woman by changing his genes.
The problem is that this approach simply doesn't work.
The reason for this is that Fest is not a pure human, and he has the genes of the Advent in him, and these genetic fragments make cloning infeasible.
Fest tried, but all failed.
Because it is impossible to clone the genes of the Adventists, all that is created through cloning is a weak human being, and a human with a large number of physical defects.
Over the long 500 years, Feist has made many attempts, none of which have succeeded.
These failed attempts also made Feist realize. If he wants to create another "self", he must acquire the genes of the Adventist.
To put it bluntly, it is to create another "self" by the way the Advent created him.
In a sense, it was for this purpose that Feist tried his best to break the powerful confinement of the other three continents and find the one who remained on Earth. It was precisely because of the discovery of this Adventist that Fester found a way to create Uma.
Of course, this is not enough.
More than four years ago, after finding the Adventist on the Northern Continent, it took Fest a lot of time to master the science and technology used by the Adventist at the beginning, and use the genes obtained from the Adventist to create Uma based on human genes.
For this matter, Fest gave up almost everything else.
Because of this, Holmes was always in charge of the church, and Fester did not always inquire about the church.
It can be said that Fester has put a lot of effort into Umma, so he has a special affection for Uma, a relationship that transcends all feelings. It is definitely not a simple love, let alone ordinary friendship and family affection, but a kind of relationship similar to symbiosis.
For Uma, Fester is her creator.
Of course, Fest did not abandon her, stayed with her for thousands of years, and finally gave her a perfect body, so her feelings for Fester were much stronger than Fest's feelings for the intruder. In addition, she does not have the slightest grudge against Feister.
Clearly, Uma is more than loyal to Fest.
Thousands of years of shared experience have given Uma almost identical to Fest, especially in her attitude towards invaders, she is another Fest. To put it simply, even if Fester is finished, Uma will do everything to achieve his ideals.
It can be seen that it is not wrong to think of Uma as another Fest.
Of course, she is not Fest, and there are still some differences with Fest, to be precise.
The point is, Feister is a product of the intruder's creation, almost perfect, with all the superpowers that the intruder has given him. Uma was created by Fest, who knew the invaders best and mastered their skills, but he was not an intruder. As a result, there must be some flaws in Uma, so Uma's superpowers will definitely not be above Fest.
Only, it doesn't matter.
For Chu Tianjiang, Uma is still a super strong existence.
Holmes had already mentioned that Feist had never used his full strength, and even five years ago, he had not used his transformation to deal with Chu Tianjiang. If Uma has half the strength of Fest, even if it is one percent, it has superpowers far above the other elders.
