Sha's holographic projection swirls on the hall's most high-profile stage, and it seems as if everyone is able to make eye contact with her eyes, as if they can draw spiritual power from those eyes. Her voice, her breath, her movements, were like one signal after another in a swarm of bees. A large amount of information flows on the retinal screen of the prosthetic body, and the part of everyone here, or something that is not human, that can be observed by him is quantified, and the prosthetic Takakawa himself does not need this data, because there is no combat here, but the way the brain and hardware work is not completely managed by himself, and he does not know what the information collected by the brain and hardware will be used for, but it is obviously not only used in conventional combat.

Takakawa had little interest in what was happening in the hall anymore, and Sha's speeches, reports, and announcements seemed to be necessary, and others seemed willing to listen, but these things that others were happy to see in the eyes of others were no longer so attractive to Takakawa. He became less and less fond of the excitement, and the pain, madness, and despair that people had concealed could not escape his senses, and in today's apocalyptic vision, the greater the crowd, the heavier the pain he could feel.

Prosthetic Takakawa didn't like to bear this kind of heavy pain, and he didn't think anyone would like it, but, he thought, this was the price - if he wanted to do those things, he was destined to bear such a price. He doesn't like it, he just takes it for granted and accepts it silently, he doesn't want to escape the pressure and pain, it's just that, if he has a choice, he sometimes wants to take it easy and just take care of himself.

Yes, sometimes, just sometimes.

With everyone's eyes focused on Sha's image, Takakawa turned around and walked through the crowd and walked away along the relatively dim corner line. He was like a ghost, no one knew about it, and no one cared about his departure. The door to the hall slammed shut behind him as a new notice from Dorothy was conveyed in his brain hardware.

"There is data that suggests that there is about to change the life of the body." Dorothy's figure appeared in the mind of the prosthetic Takakawa, and she seemed to suddenly appear in the darkness, only she was glowing. She sat in an ordinary chair, and this image was only composed in the mind of the prosthetic Takakawa, and only heard her pause before continuing: "Recently, the reality of the hospital has been extremely strongly affected, and the source of this influence comes from here. The ruins of the Dominion Bureau of the Doomsday Illusion are changing, and some of the factors that accompany this change are having an unknown impact on the LCL, and the impact is being released into the hospital through the LCL - the LCL is completely managed by the color system, however, she is not clear about the full details of the spread of influence from the apocalyptic fantasy to the reality of the hospital, although referring to Dr. Ender's theory of human completion plan, and limiting these effects to the structure of the LCL as much as possible, it seems that it is no longer enough, between me and her, He has lost contact briefly three times. ”

When Taka Kawa heard her news, he immediately thought of the situation about the young Taka Kawa that he had just felt in the hall. The two coincided in part of the time, and although there was no evidence, he still felt that the effect that Dorothy had observed came from the Torchlight's deviant ritual. No one would have expected that the mysterious ritual, which seemed to be just one thing that was not very prominent among many events, and seemed to be unremarkable among all the mysteries that had appeared, would cause such a strong change - beyond the internal environment of the apocalyptic illusion and spread into the reality of the hospital, and the mysterious event with such influence was less than five fingers in the memory of the prosthetic Takakawa.

"Another Takakawa is dealing with something that the Torchlight's deviant ritual has brought in." Prosthetic Takakawa said his conclusion straight to the point, but if he wants to explain the ins and outs of this conclusion clearly, it is not something he can do - he just feels it, so he follows his feelings to draw conclusions, maybe Dorothy can accept that Prosthetic Takakawa is a mysterious expert and has a subtle connection with the young Takakawa on the premise of relying on feelings to reach conclusions, but Prosthetic Takakawa also knows very well that Dorothy will not fully believe this kind of conclusion that only relies on feelings.

On all the topics of young Takakawa, Dorothy's attitude is extremely cautious. Prosthetic Takakawa didn't expect Dorothy to have much of a positive opinion of this conclusion.

"It's not that I don't believe your feelings, Achuan, but ...... Suddenly something new appeared, not a 'virus', but it was affecting the hospital through LCL, how likely do you think? Moreover, the Torchlight's deviant ritual was supposed to be only established in the apocalyptic illusion, and was a manifestation of the mental effect of the 'virus' on patients with doomsday syndrome. In this relationship between the 'virus' and the 'patient', isn't it a bit too abrupt to insert a new factor that has never appeared before? "Do you mean to say that there is a threat as powerful as the 'virus', and it directly interferes with the 'virus' along a channel that we don't know about?" ”

"I think so." Prosthetic Takakawa feels that Dorothy's questioning is justified, but he also believes in his own intuitive feelings, and believes in the tacit connection between himself and the young Takakawa that transcends his own personality and form of existence.

“…… I think you've been thinking too much lately, are you planning to gradually abandon your ability to think and become a cold combat tool? Dorothy's tone was sharp, "We don't need tools that don't think, we need Takakawa, even if it's just a transitional product." If you don't think about it, what's the difference between that and killing your own personality? If you rely solely on your feelings to draw conclusions and take action, what is the difference between you and the pseudo-Takakawa who is controlled by 'E'? If you don't have deep enough differences, and you don't insist on them, then there's a very good chance that the Super Takakawa project will fail - in the most dangerous case, whether independent thinking or intuition will be the key to determining whether Super Takakawa will fall under the control of the 'river'. ”

"Regarding the situation on the side of the young Takakawa, I have become more and more unable to think, and the channels through which I get information have exceeded the limits of my observation and cognition." Takakawa did not refute Dorothy's words, because from the beginning, this was the key that must be paid attention to in the plan, and it had been stated many times. It's just that if you can't do it, you can't do it, and he has never used intuition to make conclusions at the first time, but when there is no way, he has to rely on this way.

"Okay, then, you listen to me and trust me." Dorothy said, "In terms of pure probability, the number of cases in Doomsday that produces something on a par with a 'virus' is infinitely close to zero. All the mysteries presented in Doomsday Visions stem from the mysteries of the 'virus', and whether it is Shinrikyo of Doomsday, the Nazis, or the Torchlight, their rituals do not deviate from this root. You can't ignore the fact that Doomsday itself is a closed system. ”

"I don't think Doomsday is a closed system...... It has been proven that there is a power that can penetrate the apocalyptic illusion and spread into the LCL, and through such channels to further influence the real world where the hospital is located, isn't it? Prosthetic Takagawa said.

"However, compared to the statement that something similar to a 'virus' makes use of a channel composed of 'virus', isn't it more logical and probable to say that the new thing is actually a disguise of the 'virus' and a manifestation of a new means of influence?" Jiang's is in the young Gao Chuan's place, and I can detect extraordinary activity here, perhaps, what you feel is just a play directed and acted by itself. Dorothy still seemed more convinced of the odds.

Indeed, if 'Jiang' is the side of the 'virus', and the changes that have taken place in the young Takakawa have produced a negative effect, and the 'virus' is not only the side of 'Jiang', then the inexplicable existence that is now attracted by the deviation ritual of the torchlight may also be another manifestation of the 'virus'. In this apocalyptic fantasy based on the spirit of the patients with doomsday syndrome and the unobservable 'virus' as the overall maintenance hub, any mysterious and vicious phenomenon is a visual embodiment of the 'virus', which is definitely a more perfect explanation from a logical point of view.

In fact, it is not that Takakawa did not use such logic to guess the hazy feeling conveyed from the young Takakawa, as long as he observes those terrible changes from the perspective that "Jiang" is a "virus", it will be very natural to have such a conjecture as Dorothy. However, if we exclude human logic, exclude the positioning of "Jiang", and then try to accept the words of the young Takakawa, we will naturally come to other conclusions - there is no evidence at all to prove which one is correct, unless the facts are happening right in front of you, you feel it yourself, and you have proof that runs through the essence.

Unable to directly observe the prosthetic Takakawa on the battlefield on the young Takakawa's side, he couldn't refute the possibility that Dorothy had said—and he knew very well that he had to be on Dorothy's side from the beginning, which was the reason and responsibility for his birth. All the hints that came from the young Takakawa, he had to stand on Dorothy's plan and rethink it, and Dorothy's previous rebuke was completely correct.

If the way of thinking and code of conduct of "Prosthetic Takakawa" and "Juvenile Takakawa" are exactly the same, and there is no key difference in individual characteristics, then there is no need for "Prosthetic Takakawa" to be born at all.

Originally, "Young Gao Chuan" was not supposed to exist, and he died a long time ago. Today's "Juvenile Takakawa" is only reborn from the "Prosthetic Takakawa", and from normal logic, once the "Prosthetic Takakawa" is assimilated and changed in the direction of today's "Juvenile Takakawa", then the meaning of the existence of "Prosthetic Takakawa" will also be denied.

Prosthetic Takagawa thinks that Dorothy and the others may think that the influence that young Takakawa has brought to him now, especially from a mental and mental point of view, is the conspiracy of "Jiang" and a way of "virus" infection. Judging from the phenomenon that "juvenile Takakawa" will occur in the "prosthetic body Takakawa", it is inseparable from the illness and death of juvenile Takakawa that year. In other words, the "Takakawa" personality replacement mechanism has been greatly affected since the time when he was a teenager. The seemingly delicate circumstances that followed on Takakawa were further consequences of the remnants of the effects of the time.

When the young Takakawa was still alive, a series of situations that were different from Takakawa in the past once made Dorothy and her sisters think that it was a benign opportunity to make serum, but now in their judgment, it is a more profound malignant manifestation of the "virus" infection.

As long as the cognitive foundation that "Jiang" is a "virus" is not destroyed, then Dorothy's judgment is not wrong.

"Remember, Ah Chuan, don't be influenced by 'Jiang', it is trying to use that pseudo-Gao Chuan as a way to constantly influence you. This is its conspiracy and the embodiment of the 'virus' that is eroding you every moment. Dorothy's tone was worried, "It's hard to understand why the erosion is happening in this way, but what we've seen is just a manifestation of a 'virus' infection. In fact, there is a new theory on the color system: the 'river' may not exist, and the 'river' we perceive is nothing more than an illusion produced by our shallow cognition and limited observations. Is it understandable? It is likely that it is just an illusion that we all produce and is confined to one of us, and does not exist at all. This may also explain why only we know and observe the existence of the 'river'. ”

"Just among us?" Prosthetic Takakawa was a little surprised at this moment, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this statement was not unreasonable.

"Yes, the connection between us, both physically and spiritually, has factors that give rise to the illusion of 'Jiang', which is not present in other patients with doomsday syndrome - for us, 'Jiang' is the most intuitive manifestation of the erosion of the 'virus', and in other patients, it is likely that there is another intuitive manifestation. But just as no one else can see the 'river', we can't see the embodiment that others can see. Dorothy said worriedly and deeply, "In this theory, the more actively you pursue the 'river', the more serious the erosion of the 'virus' will be, but the seeker himself does not know it, because his thinking and eyes have actively deviated from this cognition." However, if you don't take the initiative to look for the 'river', the 'river' will come to you, which in itself is the embodiment of the aggressiveness of the 'virus'. Just as cancer patients have a good attitude and strive mentally and physically to fight the fear and pain caused by cancer, it does not necessarily stop the cancer, and the cancer cells will spread on their own. ”
