Chapter 215: Lightning
"I don't know what your understanding of 'immortal' is?" Zuo Zhe asked in a video conference looking at the old man in the picture. 25shuwang didn't need to introduce himself and greetings at all, Zuo Zhe directly chose a straightforward way to talk. In the field that he is not good at, in the face of an unknown opponent, Zuo Zhe can only choose a simple and direct response. The more simple and straightforward it is, the less likely it is to make unexpected slips. Because the amount of information leaked is limited, the less information the other party can draw from the information. As for whether it is polite to speak like this, it will make people lower their evaluation of themselves? Zuo Zhe has always believed that etiquette is generally a decoration deliberately added by "decent people" in order to increase their impression points, just like the clothes they wear, and in most cases they are for third parties to watch. And the person Zuo Zhe faces is either a wanted criminal or a perverted maniac, and paying attention to etiquette with such a person is simply playing the piano to a cow.
didn't care about Zuo Zhe's lack of etiquette, and the old man in the picture didn't introduce himself or ask Zuo Zhe's name and origin. Looking at Zuo Zhe, who was wearing an ink-colored helmet and black armor in the picture, the old man with white hair spoke, "Immortality is immortality, and the name of the immortal laboratory is a little ugly, so it becomes an immortal laboratory." ”
The old man in front of him wants an endless lifespan. Once a person is dead, the world has nothing to do with him. As for how boring it is to live too long? Of course not. For scientists, no matter how much time it takes, they can only grasp a little bit of the world's secrets. And scientists' thirst for knowledge is never-ending. Therefore, the expectations of scientists for life expectancy are also infinite. And if you get bored with scientific research, you can't get bored, and you won't get bored with research for 100 million years.
When people reach old age, they don't need much. In addition to the true meaning of the world, there is only an infinite lifespan left. Therefore, most philosophers are middle-aged and elderly, and most of those who aspire to immortality are also middle-aged and elderly. A young man like Zuo Zhe would not deliberately think about prolonging his life on weekdays. If it weren't for the close connection between philosophy and cultivation, Zuo Zhe would not have consumed his brain cells in exploring the true meaning of the world, which I am afraid that a lifetime of research may not lead to a conclusion.
The Immortal Laboratory's primary business is not to study immortality. And the real reason is that the Immortal Lab does not have this kind of business capability at all. Since you don't have such an ability, you don't need to waste too much energy on it.
Even so, the old man in front of him still said that he wanted to gain immortality. In other words, if the two sides want to establish deeper cooperation, Zuo Zhe's first choice is to come up with something or a plan that can extend the life span of human beings.
"I don't know what the direction of your research on immortality is?" Zuo Zhe threw out the second question.
"I'm going to use my genes as a template to create a clone and transplant my brain into the clone's cranial cavity when I'm about to die. The old man said frankly without the slightest taboo. However, the old man did not have enough confidence in the upcoming cranial transplant experiment. Even if a clone has exactly the same memories and habits as the person being copied, it is just two people who are extremely similar. What really determines "me" and "non-me" is not the similarity of the body, but the consciousness of "me" in the body, the existence of the soul that has completely "recognized the Lord". If the soul is compared to an account in an online game, then the body is the game character in the game. An account can create different game characters, but the account in a game is unique and cannot be repeated.
However, the same account can be operated by different players.
What the elderly want to do is to buy other people's "accounts", or extend the existence of their own "accounts". 35
Before experimenting with himself, the old man had obviously done experiments with others. It was precisely because the results of the experiment were not good that the old man in front of him was very worried. According to the research of the elderly, consciousness is hidden in the human brain, and if you want to prolong the existence of consciousness, you must prolong the survival time of the brain. Unfortunately, the results of these experiments are not satisfactory, although there is no self-consciousness in the body, it has a strong influence on the brain and self-consciousness, and some brain transplant patients will even have things that the body is not controlled by the brain. Moreover, neuronal cells in the cerebral cortex can also age and become cancerous. Even if old neuronal cells can be gradually replaced by technological means, the sense of self can be distorted as a result.
All kinds of signs are pointing to the problem that there must be something hidden and unknown that affects the human body. The old man came to meet Zuo Zhe this time, hoping to obtain relevant theoretical knowledge from Zuo Zhe. Yes, the elderly want theoretical knowledge more than concrete results. With a theoretical foundation, it is possible to obtain a range of research results. If it is a drug that prolongs life, it is mostly just a drug that is difficult to replicate and subject to human control, and it is difficult to reverse the relevant theoretical basis.
It's a pity that Zuo Zhe will never say anything related to aura. For Earth Technology, Reiki may be an oxygen isotope that cannot be made synthetically in a factory. But for the Galaxy Empire, which has super technology, as long as Zuo Zhe dares to divulge a trace of information related to oxygen isotopes, it is entirely possible for the other party to discover the spirit element, an isotope of oxygen, according to Zuo Zhe's leaked words!
Perhaps, it is precisely because of this reason that the Galaxy Empire has not had a patent law for a long time. The world is complicated and complex, simple and simple, and the difficulty in the study of many products of civilization lies not in the inability to manufacture, but in the kind of whimsical thinking. Once the kind of ideas that are difficult to find without being reminded by outsiders are leaked out, there will be no technical difficulties in the relevant technology! Of course, the real reason why the patent law cannot be implemented is that the high-level leaders of the Galaxy Empire do not have the influence to match their status. Today's Galaxy Empire is like the Han Dynasty in China. In China, the Han Dynasty was nominally the domain of the imperial family, and local power was actually controlled by the local wealthy. The same is true of the Galaxy Empire, the core area has the nominal right to rule the Galaxy Empire, and can also call on the forces of the princes to fight against foreign enemies when facing foreign enemies. However, when dealing with internal affairs, the top leaders of the core area will be obstructed by the major forces in the vassal districts.
The real reason for this situation is mainly because the territory of the Galaxy Empire is too vast, and technology is a little lagging behind compared to such a vast territory.
It is impossible for Zuo Zhe to ignore the old man's request. After all, for the next nearly four months, Zuo Zhe had to rely on the manpower and material resources of the Immortal Laboratory to resist the resistance that might come from the smugglers and the Techno Technology Laboratory.
On the one hand, he couldn't ignore it, and on the other hand, he didn't want to reveal the secrets of the spirit element, so there was only one choice left in front of Zuo Zhe. So, Zuo Zhe sent the video of the giant palm to the old man. Now that the hole card has been revealed, Zuo Zhe doesn't mind using it a few more times.
"This is the palm of God. Zuo Zhe's faint words immediately aroused the other party's infinite interest. Even if it's just a video material, Zuo Zhe doesn't even want to take out the real thing, which is shocking enough.
Even if the gods are not immortal, their lifespan is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary humans. If you can study the secrets of the gods, wouldn't it be one step closer to immortality?
Now that Zuo Zhe has taken out the benefits, it is time for the Immortal Laboratory to take out the corresponding chips. Before that, they had already talked about the best things with each other. So, the Immortal Lab needs to come up with new benefits.
"I heard that the smugglers, who were originally strictly neutral, have come together with you, and have almost wiped out the Wild Dog Star Pirate Regiment?" the old man threw out this matter in a hurry, "What kind of thing can make the smugglers give up the neutral camp that they insist on?"
"What's the matter?" Zuo Zhe asked quietly and rhetorically. Because of the existence of supercomputers, as long as enough intelligence is gathered, predicting the future is not something that cannot be done. Since the other party already knew about these things, it meant that the Immortal Laboratory had already analyzed what was about to happen. As for whether the Tylenol Planetary System has obtained the news, it depends on the intelligence network planted by the major forces of the Tylenol Planetary System in the underground black market. If nothing else, the smugglers were already in combat readiness the moment they made up their minds to turn their backs on the neutral camp, and it would be impossible to continue to allow the intelligence networks of the hostile camps to continue to function.
"If you're right, you've already reached a partnership with the smuggler and are about to launch a full-scale attack on the Tylenol system, right?" Sure enough, as Zuo Zhe had expected, the Immortal Lab had already made relevant inferences.
"Yes and what, no what?" Zuo Zhe asked noncommittally.
"If this is true, our partnership can go one step further. It was only at this moment that the old man revealed his true identity.
"My code name is Lightning, and I'm from Kunlan Star and used to be the chief scientist of Kunlan Science Laboratory. The old man didn't say much, but the hidden information in his words was enough to shock. In the Galactic Empire, there are strict criteria for naming ecological planets. Among them, the ecological planets in the core area all start with the word "Qian", while the ecological planets in the princely areas all start with the word "Kun". As for the ecological planets of Krai, that's whatever. Judging from Lightning's self-introduction, Lightning once served as the chief scientist of the official laboratory of an ecological planet in the princely districts! However, how could such a character come to the border region and eventually become a wanted criminal? I want to talk about "Infinite Shuttle in the Other World" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
