The sound is...

Players in the room raise their weapons and stare at the plant sphere, ready to crush the contents into powder.

"It's me,"

The voice in the plant sphere paused, as if recalling its identity,

After a long time, he said slowly: "I am Ω." ”

Well?

Li Ang raised his eyebrows, he did kill the old woman in red just now, and heard the system prompt, "Why aren't you dead?" ”

“...”

The self-proclaimed Ω existence paused and said slowly: "On the fifth night the player entered the hotel, I received a note from [Don't Be Killed],

Then he was attacked by a wooden wheel-like monster,

It can drastically reduce the physical, energy, and soul attacks of the outside world.

Just enough to restrain my abilities,

It took me a lot of effort to kill it.

While I was healing on the spot, the door of room 0108 was opened from the outside,

The old woman in red rushed in, killed me and ate me.

Now I... It is neither Ω nor Ω. ”

？

Are you going to put this aside for philosophical speculation?

seems to see the doubts and impatience of Li Ang and others,

The voice continued, "The plague doctor should know, Diogenes. ”

Hearing this name, the epidemic doctor's eyelids jumped, the mule narrowed his eyes, and Bai Hao was silent.

Leon remained vigilant against the vine orb and asked with interest, "Who is that?" ”

"This Diogenes is not the ancient Greek philosopher of the fourth century BC in history, but a.... Very strange player. ”

The epidemic doctor hesitated for a moment and gave an uncertain answer,

He glanced at the other companions and said, "You should know that the Demon Scientist Alliance is not so much a guild,

It's more of a casual club of like-minded people.

The president of the Sanhedrin, Lord of the Side of Truth, never showed his face,

Ordinary guild affairs, such as maintaining guild order,

Organize team activities,

To review the application for membership and to see if the applicant is eligible,

Overseeing the fairness of the guild's internal transactions is the responsibility of several vice-presidents and ministers. The members of the Demon Scientists Alliance are all skilled and recalcious, mavericks, and unwilling to join official institutions to seek refuge.

There, technical exchange always comes first.

Books on theoretical knowledge, drawings of engineering buildings, machinery, equipment, facilities, blueprints for the design of weapons and tools, genetic sequence maps....

All knowledge and technology can be clearly priced.

Sell them at auction or through barter.

We even have one-on-one professional coaching sessions,

As long as the price can be afforded, the budding of Lv1 can also directly learn the high-throughput sequencing technology system of single-cell functional genomics through memory infusion from Lv20.

Learn how to transform mouse embryos into goblins, goblins into half-orcs, and finally transform half-orcs into powerful orcs comparable to the urban god of war in a humble medieval environment.

And that Diogenes..."

The plague doctor paused, considered his words, and said slowly: "He is not the vice president or minister of the guild.

But I heard that he had already joined the Demon Scientists Alliance when it was still in the form of an online dark web forum.

No one has seen his true face, and no one knows his true strength,

Even the official agencies and civilian intelligence databases do not have any information about Diogenes' team.

Every time he goes online, he will conduct a consignment auction in the union to sell unique technology.

The categories of those skills are completely different, from power armor construction drawings to magic ship construction manuals, and even instructions for the transformation of living saints...

It is said that that kind of surgery requires the plundering of other people's stigmata and transferring it to one's own body.

Once successful, it quickly gains Divine Son-level powers, and there are no side effects, except that the recipient may be hunted by the Inquisition and the Templars.

In addition, this Diogenes does not accept in-game currency transactions, and before each auction he will release a part of his knowledge and technology, asking interested parties to find him by themselves.

barter, or in exchange for one of your own unique skills,

If Diogenes is interested, the deal is made and the two sides swap - sometimes some low-level players can also rely on non-advanced but creative technical drawings.

Gain valuable knowledge. ”

"That's right."

The voice in the plant sphere said in a deep voice, "Before this mission, I made a deal with Diogenes, using psionic technology to create virtual souls,

Get a brain anatomy drawing from him,

What is depicted on the drawings is a unique biomodification technology called [Devourer Reincarnation].

Limited by the non-disclosure pact that the Demon Scientists Alliance must sign before each transaction,

I can't tell you the details of the Devourer Reincarnation Technique.

However, the general effect of this technology is to back up and store the state of the recipient's own brain.

From the macroscopic telencephalon, diencephalon, midbrain, pons, extended brain...

to the microscopic brain neurons,

can be perfectly copied like burning a disc,

All the information in the brain is stored in a part of the recipient's stem cells.

If the recipient is devoured by something, such as a demon or a cannibal,

These stem cells will be automatically activated.

They can fool the immune system of the eater, and gradually replace one of the eater's organs, such as the stomach, intestines, lungs,

At first, these organs will function normally, just like the original.

However, over time, these stem cells, which recorded information from the brain of the original recipient,

will secretly absorb nutrients, near the stomach and intestinal organs, reconstruct a miniature brain,

The macroscopic and microscopic structure of this miniature brain is consistent with the original brain of the recipient.

Perfectly inherit the memory, consciousness, personality, and emotions of the original recipient at the time of burning.

Over time, the miniature brain will gradually take over the function of the eater's spine, taking over spinal cord reflexes,

And at the right time, the anti-customer is the main thing, depriving the eater of the control of the body,

isolate the brain of the eater,

Complete the effect of full parasitism, manipulation - in a way like a wire worm. ”

Ω paused for a moment and said slowly, "The original purpose of [Devourer Reincarnation],

It is to let the recipient of the limited strength of the essence of life find a powerful body for himself and be reborn with the help of a demon body.

My form of life is different from that of ordinary people,

At the beginning, it was only for the purpose of enriching the database, and this technology was exchanged with Diogenes.

And backed up his own brain.

Unexpectedly, in this mission, the old woman in red actually ate my body and drank my brain.

She knew that I was good at soul technology, and she deliberately stirred up my soul.

But what she didn't expect was that my tiny brain was slowly generating in her body.

The new brain is equivalent to a NAS network storage device, which can firmly lock the fragments of the soul, so that my soul will not be completely infiltrated, impregnated, and mixed with other things.

When Li Risheng was fighting with the old woman in red before, 'I' suddenly regained consciousness and used my soul impact to cause some interference to the old woman in red's actions.

And now...

Uh, I'm manipulating the respiratory system of this mess of flesh, making sounds. ”

“...”

Li Ang remembered that when he fought before, the old woman in red had several times when her movements were stiff and stagnant, and she was punched several times by Li Ang in vain.

Ω seems to be examining the current condition of his body,

After being silent for a while, he said slowly: "The [Devourer Reincarnation] technique sounds weird and terrifying, but at the practical level, there are a lot of limitations.

First of all, it is not a simple biological modification technique, it needs to be combined with soul and psionic skills, and not everyone can learn it.

Secondly, the stem cells that record the information of the brain need to be nourished by the soul at all times, and cannot be too far away from the soul of the recipient.

Therefore, there is no way to make it like a lich life box.

Again, stem cells must aggregate into tumor-like vegetations,

The growth is horrible, medium in size, several circles larger than an apple,

It's impossible to secretly let others eat it like poisoning, and take away other people's bodies,

Unless that person is a fool who will gouge out and eat the meat Lingzhi when he sees it in the ground.

Moreover, the parasite who has abandoned his body must wait until the parasitism is completely completed and the body is controlled.

to be able to release other skills other than psionic energy,

There is no ability to resist in this process,

That is, the body of the old woman in red was cursed by me, and gradually decayed, so that she did not realize that she had been parasitized.

Finally, this skill doesn't really lead to rebirth.

The brain receives information, distills the information into data, and stores the data as memory.

Memory produces consciousness, consciousness constitutes personality, personality carries the soul, the soul is attached to the body, and the body is subject to the brain.

The brain is the closed-loop endpoint for human beings to become intelligent creatures with independent consciousness.

At this point, the brain takes even precedence over the soul.

Now, of course, I have a Ω brain structure, inherited all the memories of Ω, and inherited the personality of Ω.

My abilities, temperament, character, likes and dislikes, values,

It's all the same as Ω.

However, Ω's original brain has completely disappeared.

The newborn brain is just a highly accurate replica, and the materials used have nothing to do with the original brain, which is equivalent to making a new one in the shape of the original brain.

And my soul..."

The voice paused for a long time, and said hoarsely, "It seems to have been affected by other soul fragments in the body of the old woman in red.

I can recall the memories of hidden ghosts, 13MARK, and some hotel guests.

I feel the joys, sorrows, and sorrows in my memory, and sometimes I even confuse myself with them...

I may be Ω,

Or maybe it's something that feels like Ω..."

As a technology advocate, Ω generally don't be so emotional and sentimental.

It's rare to get caught up in the paradox of the ship of Theseus, or the river of Heraclitus—and the average person doesn't have the leisure to dwell on whether or not he was himself ten minutes or ten years ago.

Only this time his brain and soul went out of sorts,

The brain grows out of nothing, and the soul is intertwined with others.

I really can't make him feel at ease.

Leon nodded, "So, what about your player information." ”

The system of killing games is not deceiving, and now neither the game store nor the private auction house has heard of such a thing as a name change card.

Well...

If there is a name change card, and the name change card is cheap,

Leon has no doubt that there will be a large number of players to buy,

to correct the nickname of the player who killed Matt style,

Or change your nickname to a more middle two.

Lv17 Heart-Snatching Boss Ω

Above the sphere of plants, a line of translucent writing emerges.

The players in the room breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not lay down their weapons.

After verifying Ω's body, the next thing to discuss is how to deal with him.

is different from the Black Saint Son and Dan Fei,

Ω have not harmed anyone else,

And when he fought before, Ω also took the opportunity to control the old woman in red.

It doesn't seem good to kill it indiscriminately.

People are swordsmen, I am fish meat, I know the current form Ω I show my skills, equipment, and psionic information very simply,

Say you're safe and harmless,

and offered to let Li Ang and others use skills to restrict his actions,

At 3:30, if the tall and thin hat appears, he is killed—to prevent Ω from being counted half dead, like Dan Fei.

The other players agreed to the request,

Leon unraveled the plant orb, revealing the rotten fleshy corpse of the old woman in red, and retrieved Omega's brain from the corpse and placed it in Liu Wuxi's glass bottle.

Then Bai Haozheng made a move and used the catheter to drain all the spiritual energy on Ω's body.

The players then lowered the elevator car to the first floor.

Everyone stayed in the elevator shaft, hanging on brackets of different heights corresponding to their respective floors,

At 3:29, the group walked out of the elevator shaft (Ω glass bottle was placed in the hallway on the first floor).

Maybe Ω fifth night was indeed dead,

Perhaps with the help of [Devourer Reincarnation], the Ω of the corpse and soul fragments of the old woman in red was considered a complete life by the hotel,

In short, the thin and tall hat did not appear.

For the rest of the seventh night, everyone stayed on their floors (Leon used the old woman in red as a material to help Ω make a temporary body with built-in precautions, and Ω promised to transfer 1500 game coins to Leon after leaving the script),

Each has his own ability to solve abnormal events.

Because all floors are inhabited by people, or have died,

The intensity of the anomalous event returned to the level of the first night, and there was no strange movement in the corridor.

After 3:30 on the last night, Leon walked up and down the elevator shaft to help other players solve the incident, and by the way, he also managed to trap and kill a hallway alien.

————

Now the time is... 07:02 a.m. on the eighth day.

Bai Hao was standing in the corridor, looking at the clock at the end of the corridor, and let out a long breath.

Two minutes ago, the system's task end prompt sounded, and the others said goodbye in the elevator shaft, and soon they all teleported away, leaving the dolphin hotel.

Only Bai Haozheng is left here.

He came to room 0912 that he had agreed with Yukari Joto before.

Click,

Twist the doorknob.

It's not yet the end of the curfew at 07:07,

As he pushed open the door, a note fell above the room,

It says "Please sleep".

He locked the door and, as instructed, lay down and went to sleep.

The vision slowly swirled, and he was once again on top of the stone arch bridge.

He's going to do something.

Save a young girl who deserves to be redeemed.
