After the New Year, Zhou Zhenyou returned to the Bay Area of California, where he stayed until March, and then followed the team to Maryland.

Here, scientists from several laboratories of the Institute of Energy Biosciences joined the team.

The test was more difficult than Zhou Zhen expected, and it was not until the autumn of '99, three months longer than originally planned, that the basic tests were completed.

At this time, ten volunteers to participate in the trial were also selected.

In order to determine whether the test will be successful before the new century, the implantation date was set for October 9.

Concerns about millennium bugs around the world have made people pay more attention to the role of electronic computers. Even the president personally came to the research laboratory of the University of Maryland to cheer scientists from all walks of life.

According to the data simulated now, at least one month, and at most two months, the cells and molecules of the biocomputer can be grown together with the cells of the human body.

That way, before Christmas, you can get the results.

Zhou Zhen doesn't care about the task at all now, and he doesn't care about the beauties of other plots at all.

In the face of the temptation of biocomputers, any beauty is no longer attractive.

In addition to occasionally calling his family and Julie to prove that he is still alive, Zhou Zhen put all his energy into studying and doing experiments.

In addition, the selected volunteers also underwent three months of training and were injected with a variety of active substances.

Scientists have reduced the power of biological computers to 100,000 times that of ordinary electronic computers.

The corresponding volume has also been reduced a lot, and the latest molecular computer that has been researched so far has a volume of only one cubic millimeter, which is about the size of a sesame seed.

But a computer the size of a sesame seed has trillions of DNA molecules, and the basic components of these molecules are proteins.

Biomolecules themselves have a natural and unique three-dimensional structure, and their density is five orders of magnitude higher than that of planar silicon integrated circuits.

Nucleic acid molecules are used as "data", and biological enzymes and biological manipulations are used as information processing tools.

Trillions of DNA molecules are chemically reacted by biological enzymes, which can make biological computers run billions of times at the same time.

Moreover, the biocomputer chip is not only fast, but once the biochip fails, it can self-repair, so it has the ability to heal itself.

Implanting a chip looks very simple and is even simpler than doing the smallest surgery.

With regional nerve anesthesia, a needle is inserted from the back of the neck into the corpus callosum, above the pons and medulla oblongata, where the symphysis nerve fibers are located.

There are a million neurons here, which are also the main nerve centers of the human body.

After the chip is implanted with air pressure, there is a fiber protective film on the outer layer of the chip, which softens the protective film through the activation liquid, and turns the protective film into a nutrient solution to promote the connection and fusion of molecules with human cells and nerves.

This process is very important, and if you are not careful, you can damage the nerves of the human body.

Moreover, no human trials have been conducted before, and even if various simulation tests have been done, no one knows how side effects this connection will be.

Everyone else was very nervous, only Zhou Zhen was very calm.

Even if the experiment fails, he won't really die.

After the experiment on the same day, Zhou Zhen met Julie and Jamie's parents who had not seen him for several months.

Later, they were sent to a tropical island by a special plane.

The chip has just been implanted, and in the cultivation and growth stage, you can't use your brain too much.

And you can't sleep more than a month with anesthetics, because this will also inhibit the fusion of cells.

In addition, it is necessary to observe the fusion of the chips at all times in order to detect problems.

So their main task for these two months is to play happily without thinking about anything.

During this period, I can't read books, I can't study, and I can't do anything that costs my brain.

Compared with Zhou Zhen's relaxed face, his parents and Julie were a little worried, but they were obviously also dismissed, so they didn't show it.

On this small island not far from Hawaii, there is a laboratory where they are tested every day and the rest of the day is spent playing.

Zhou Zhen had a lot of fun at first, but a week later, the first failed experiment appeared, casting a shadow on everyone.

This failed product was a voluntary professor, and during the process of cell fusion, the active molecule was too active, which stimulated his cerebrospinal fluid, causing the cerebrospinal fluid to multiply and squeeze into the brainstem.

He had repeated seizures and later developed a coma.

A plane picked him up and continued his research.

After him, there was another failure, this time as a professor, but only a female professor.

After her brain cells were stimulated, I don't know what caused her to start growing taller again at the age of almost fifty.

In just half a month, her height has changed from 1.65 meters to 1.7 meters, and she continues to grow.

She was also picked up for more detailed research.

Because of the appearance of the two failures, which affected the emotions of everyone, the eight people they gave birth to were separated.

It's better not to know about other people's situations than to know and then be depressed and uneasy.

And at this time, Zhou Zhen woke up that day and felt something different.

When he came to his senses and opened his eyes, he felt that his brain had become empty, but it was extremely busy, and everything around him began to be digitized.

Julie lying beside him, he could know her body temperature, her precise height, and even the size of each part of her, and how many hairs she had on her body.

When you open your eyes, the distance of each object from you, its precise dimensions are clear.

Some items that you know yourself, even know the specific ingredients.

He knows the exact size of every step he takes after waking up, and with a little training, he can walk exactly the same distance with every step.

The world seems to be digitized......

But these did not make Zhou Zhen too distressed, because all of this was less than one percent of his energy.

In other words, he can ignore the information he receives at every moment, and he can know it clearly without concentrating.

He didn't have the idea of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and he didn't have the idea of hiding all this, because only by confessing all this could he know more clearly what had happened to him.

Therefore, after Zhou Zhen finished washing, he called the laboratory.

In less than ten minutes, all the professors who stayed on the island rushed over, excited like children, hugging Zhou Zhen and walking towards the laboratory.

Zhou Zhen coped with everyone's gossip, but he could also spare his energy to say goodbye to his parents, as well as Julie.

"Don't worry about me, I've become Superman."

Zhou Zhen has indeed become a superman, because after digitization, although Zhou Zhen's ability has not increased, it has also undergone qualitative changes.

First of all, the energy he needs to expend in life only occupies a small part, not to mention distraction, even if it is distracted, there is no problem.

Secondly, his precise mastery of strength and speed, technique, has been completely refined.

For example, in the past, he would punch with a few points of force and leave a few points of force, but now, when he punches and says that he will hit 50 kilograms, he will not punch 51 kilograms.

Let him play billiards now, basically he can guarantee that he will clear the table with one shot and will not make any mistakes.

His success gave everyone a great deal of confidence, and the remaining seven volunteers were brought together again.

While doing all kinds of tests, Zhou Zhen also poured some chicken soup for the soul to others.

With the change of time, Zhou Zhen's integration with computers has become closer and closer, and his ability has grown rapidly.

For example, DNA sequencing tests, an ordinary electronic computer, take several hours to calculate.

But for Zhou Zhen, it only takes a short second to get the final result.

It can be said that the time he spoke was much greater than the time he calculated.

Now take a book to him, just flip it through, and he will be able to write it all down without the slightest mistake.

And these occupy very little space in his mind.

Just when Zhou Zhen showed more and more abilities, others gradually showed different changes.

However, compared with Zhou Zhen, their bodies have become shackles that restrict their abilities.

Everyone's brain and consciousness have made a qualitative leap, but the body restricts them.

After a month, the remaining eight people were successful, and the others did not merge as quickly as Zhou Zhen, but they also stabilized.

At this time, a special plane came over and took them all back to conduct more detailed research at a national laboratory in Berkeley.

But soon after arriving in the Bay Area, four people began to have problems one after another.

There is a rapid weight loss, the body is rapidly shrinking, and the movement is becoming more and more difficult.

The other went crazy, he thought he had become a god and started to harm himself, not wanting his body.

There are also two with the same symptoms, and their left and right brains show an inconsistent level of activity, and they become hemiplegic after stroke.

This also poured cold water on the ecstasy of the experimental team and made them become cautious.

Of the 10 people's experiments, only four were considered successful, and six had problems.

In particular, several people over forty years old were not spared, and only four young, physically strong ones, have not yet experienced side effects.

Although Zhou Zhen and the others were restricted from moving, they did not lose their freedom.

When he wasn't testing, he went to the library in Berkeley every day, accompanied by two guards.

And he reads books differently than everyone else, he only needs to quickly turn the book in front of him and write down all the contents of a book.

And these memories are permanent, and do not occupy the capacity of his own brain.

Now Zhou Zhen seems to be no longer able to be called a human being, and has become a real humanoid supercomputer.
