Cornworth dug the pit himself, and he had to jump with tears in his eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The subject of the experiment was "Frasa", which resembled a puffed starfish and was actually a mollusk, which Harappa used as a bridge to communicate secretly with Xia Ming.

Ferza is a slave possessed by almost every Kimu wizard, and is mainly used to store text and visual information, as well as "thoughts". That's right, ideas that are difficult to describe in words can also be stored in Faisari, used as memos, or, if a heart-to-heart conversation is not possible, forwarded to another wizard.

In other words, the Quesa is almost the equivalent of a computer with only recording functions.

Fitted between juvenile and adult, the Faisa was soaked in a tank, about the size of a marquire, without eyes, and with a skin more akin to snakeskin, with six horns.

Gizampa had Cornworth telepathically connect with him, maintaining only enough channels to observe the changes in Gizampa's apparent consciousness. It took a lot of effort to prepare, Cornworth didn't have the same delicate ability to manipulate consciousness connections as Viola, but with Jizampa taking the initiative to help, there were no insurmountable obstacles.

Jizampa then connected with the core stone of the flagship through the strange stone fragments on the forehead ring, this connection Cornworth did not sense anything unusual, it seems that the connection between the strange wood people and the strange stone is very deep.

After that, there were some very trivial preparations, which were basically completed by the Campers and some "biological equipment". Perform some surgical operations on Ferza, make an opening near his nerve center, send silk threads into Fersa's body, entrench in Ferza's nerve center, and wait for a while.

The incision was made by an aquatic animal, similar to a crab, but with sharper and thinner pincers. And that kind of silk thread, which Gizampa introduced as also an animal, is called a nematode, because it is too disgusting Cornworth to remember. This nematode contains mucus that is blended into a fragment of strange stones, which can emit intense radiation and alienate Phasa's nerve center. And the job of the Camberians is to manipulate these "biological devices".

As soon as he heard the radiation, Cornworth's consciousness swayed, didn't they have a problem when they were so close?

Gizampa reassured Cornworth, saying that this radiation was not the kind of radiation of radioactive elements, but only on "containers" that "have no soul but can hold souls", and that Frasa's nerve center is an excellent container.

He also explained that in general, the transformation of Frassa is a container made of floating stones, which takes a long time to slowly alienate. This method will only be used if it is a temporary expedited.

Then Gizampa went into battle himself, he pierced Feesa's nerve center with a long needle polished from a strange stone, closed his eyes, and began the "soul operation". At this time, Cornworth clearly sensed that Gizampa was connected to something vast enough, and that some unknown force was circulating in this connection.

Cornworth did not touch the depths of Gizampa's consciousness, whether it was that being or that power, the details could not be perceived. What reassures Cornworth is that that existence has no will, just like nature itself, and the power of circulation is also neutral, completely different from the cold mania of Mutant Borg and Super Matt Whip, and different from the gentle kindness conveyed by Qianyan and Xia Ming.

While doing this, Gizampa explained to Cornworth on the surface of consciousness: "Frasa is one of the amazing evolutions of the fragments of the mother tree......

Cornworth complained on the spirit web: "In their eyes, we humans are also one of the amazing evolutions of the mother tree fragments. ”

Gidampa did not sense the existence of the spirit net, and continued: "Its nerve center, the material structure, is very perfect, enough to carry a certain strength of the soul. But in its native environment, this construct is only used to manipulate its body and adapt to the very complex aquatic environment. This makes it both very sensitive to soul connections and completely invulnerable to soul intrusions. ”

"If its native environment changes dramatically and there are great tides, maybe it can evolve into a higher intelligent life, and this is its potential."

"It's a pity that they live in the deep sea, and there are really big tides, and they can't adapt to such violent changes."

"You Blue Star people should also have discovered on the Scarlet Star that tides are the most important link in the evolution of life. Without environmental changes such as tides, life cannot move from the sea to land. Unless it is human intervention, or in very special circumstances, the marine environment alone cannot evolve into higher intelligent life. The ecology established by the ocean meets all the conditions for the survival and reproduction of lower life, they cannot break free from this low-level mode, and they do not need souls to achieve the continuation of the race. ”

"The land is different, the complex terrain, the changing climate, the air, the water, the temperature, the factors that limit the continuation of life are countless times more than the ocean. But this also sets an ultimate goal for the evolution of life, that is, so that the survival and reproduction of the race can break through various restrictions, adapt to various changes, and become a higher intelligent life with a soul. ”

"In the end, there will always be a kind of life that, after the evolution of the body has reached its extreme, will turn to the evolution of the soul, relying on the wisdom born of the soul to break through the limitations of nature. You Blue Star people are such a super race that relied on natural evolution and was born in the vast river of light. It only took tens of thousands of glorious hours, which is really not simple, and it is worthy of the evolutionary masterpiece of the fragment of the mother tree. ”

As he spoke, the topic turned to evolution, putting aside the superiority of being the son of the Ancestral Mother Tree and overlooking the other life races of the entire galaxy like a god, and the tides and land and sea evolution he talked about sparked a deep resonance with the team. After all, it is an immortal race with a history of tens of millions of years, and it has seen too much and understood too much about the evolution of life.

And the soul that Jizanpa quotes here also gives the team a further understanding, and it seems that the soul that the Qimu people are talking about is actually the autonomous consciousness or high-level thinking that the Star Alliance said. And in human society, the average person understands it this way.

"Now, I want to give it a soul through the strange stone, with the power of the mother tree. This allows it to learn, to memorize, and to do some simple thinking in order to receive our instructions. Of course, the most important thing is to keep in mind who the owner is. It will only open the soul if it conforms to the owner's soul fluctuations. ”

"Change doesn't happen right away, it's like a toddler, it still needs a lot of training, and that's what comes after that."

This is the most critical part, but unfortunately Cornworth can't see the details.

Jizampah's next sentence surprised him: "Please try to touch its soul, try to be as gentle as possible, its soul is very fragile to you." ”

Cornworth hesitated, and then followed the connection of Gizampa's consciousness and extended his consciousness to this Fersa. The process is very difficult for him, like touching a soap bubble with his finger but not allowing it to burst.

Fortunately, with the help of Gizampa to remind him, Cornworth finally came into contact with the "soul" of Zanza, as Gizampa said, like a thin blank sheet of paper.

Gizampa said, "Well, this Zasa has remembered your soul fluctuations, and from now on, you are its master. ”

Cornworth stared at the puffed six-pointed starfish in the water tank and complained again: "I think it's worth more to bake this thing and serve it on the table." ”

"Because of the language differences, there are still some communication barriers between us, and if there are more complicated things in the future, we can also communicate through it."

Gizampa's words made Cornworth suddenly think, yes, there is still this value.

After the experiment, the team had another discussion.

The experiment was small, but significant, and Cornworth, as a human, sensed the existence of the Archaeoptera's tree, albeit only indirectly.

Cornworth felt that the will of the mother tree he came into contact with was somewhat like the previous 100 billion, of course, the 100 billion without individual will. However, it is different from the high-dimensional space-time consciousness above 100 billion, and the mother tree has a real "body".

"I think so, the Archaeoptera Tree is some kind of material manifestation of the movement of the mental strings at a higher level, at a higher level than our superintelligence. Our roots are just matter and information in a low-dimensional universe, and the mother tree may have evolved from a star cluster or even a larger cosmic bubble. ”

Su Huan rarely expressed his opinion: "If it is compared to a blank brain, then the Qimu people are the neurons of the peripheral nerve parts, and even the synapses, and the strange stones are the material medium for the exchange of information between them, and may even be the microscopic unit of the archaeopteryx tree." ”

Wu Kang thought thoughtfully: "If this is the case, our Star Alliance can cross-reference the structure of the Qimu people, the difference is only that their thinking string movement center is single, and there is no individual will, while we are Qianyan and the leader occupy the macroscopic rationality and individual sensibility respectively, and then simulate it." ”

Viola frowned: "There is a huge hidden danger in this structure of the Qimu people. ”

Cornworth also became serious: "That's right, if the strange wood people and strange stones are infected by the chaotic thought strings, they will directly image the Ancestral Mother Tree. ”

"They must have a prevention mechanism", Wu Kang said: "However, since the Archaeoptera Tree has no will, this mechanism can only rely on the Qimu people, if the soul network of the Qimu people suffers a major impact and the prevention mechanism fails, the Archaeoptera Tree itself will not be able to resist it." ”

This is the advantage of the consciousness body dominated by the spirit network, the core of the spirit network has a will, and it will be flexibly adjusted according to the time and situation. More importantly, the spirit network is distributed, although this distributed architecture still has great limitations, but it will not be like a centralized network like Qimuren, the core fails, and the entire network is finished.

To put it bluntly, if Qian Yan and Xia Ming had an accident, the spirit net would not all be paralyzed. Superintelligence can support a fragmented network, and they play the role of the next Qianyan, and the superintelligent partner is the next Xia Ming. Of course, because of the limited abilities of superintelligence and partners, it is impossible to return to the level when Qianyan and Xia Ming were there, but if there are a large number of them, they can still maintain basic operation.

"I think that the root of Harappa's appeal and the contradiction with the royal family of the Qi Empire is here", Wu Kang came to a conclusion, and everyone agreed. Jizampa took the opportunity of the experiment to get a zanza for Cornworth, which was naturally also a preparation for the closed communication in the future.

Ji Zampa also listed a lot of experimental projects for the team, and after the team discussed, they felt that it was not meaningful to do other experiments, only to see the application of the Qimu people to other creatures, and they couldn't touch the will of the mother tree, and they couldn't understand how the Qimu people performed soul operations.

Cornworth's mind opened again: "In the prisoner camp, we once watched the biological research institute conduct live experiments on the Qimu captives, and wanted to find out how the long life of the Qimu people came about. Although they know that they have some plant genes, they have never figured out the relationship between these genes and the length of life. ”

Cornworth's eyes flashed eagerly: "What if...... I mean, if we humans can transplant this immortal gene of the Qimu people, wouldn't that solve the problem of human lifespan in one fell swoop? ”

Everyone was speechless, you are a restless maniac, you are clearly a paranoia.

Starlink has a number of technologies in longevity, and the most promising thing to spread to the entire human race is not telomerase proliferation technology, which requires a high degree of consciousness activity, but endoskeleton technology, but unfortunately, at least LV1 consciousness activity is still needed, and this threshold cannot be lowered at present, and people below LV1 can only be used in the medical environment, not in the living environment.

This technology is to use the endoskeleton that was originally used to enhance the body's strength, reaction, defense and self-healing, etc., to promote the regeneration and health of the body, especially bone marrow, blood, bone tissue, etc. At the same time, through the monitoring of organ function, minerals, vitamins and other nutrients in the body, to ensure the strong operation of core organs such as intestines and stomach, heart.

In other words, this endoskeleton is to ensure the health of the human body through external means, enhance the body's autoimmunity and regeneration ability, according to the prediction of Starlink, as long as the human physiological model used to monitor and control the operation of the human body continues to refine and improve, this "life-extending endoskeleton" can increase the average life expectancy of human beings from 70 to 100 years old, the average person can live to 120 years old, and by the age of 90, it can still maintain a healthy state of 40 to 50 years old.

This prediction is based on the human physiological model created by Starlink, which is called one of the two wonders of human life science along with the human neural model. The combination of the two models constitutes a complete model of human life.

Based on physiological models, scientists have determined that the biggest cause of human aging and death is not the depletion of cell divisions, but the aging lesions of various organs that maintain the body's circulation. The aging lesions of organs are caused by nutritional deficiencies, and are interrelated with the failure of the gastrointestinal and digestive organs themselves, which eventually leads to the acceleration of cell division, or the inability to start the regeneration cycle of stem cells, which is linked one by one, and makes the human body die.

According to Xia Ming's own situation, the existing division cycle of human cells can be more than three times the current average level, which means that the biggest factor restricting human lifespan is the collapse of the human body's regeneration cycle. If this cycle can be maintained or even extended, the lifespan of human beings, even in the cell division cycle of normal people, can reach 200 years.

is a strange person like Xia Ming, at this stage, his theoretical lifespan is 600 years old......

But whether it is 200 years old or 600 years old, compared to the Qimu people, it is still a mayfly-like existence.

Wu Kang thought about it and thought it was a good idea: "Then, Cornworth, you can go on!" ”

Cornworth froze: "I just proposed, why do you have to let me go!?" ”

"You go on an adventure and there is a 1% chance that you will find the treasure of Ali Baba, with enough gold and silver jewels for you to squander for ten lifetimes. But there is a 99% chance that you will die, or become a monster......"

Wu Kang asked the others, "Are you willing to take this risk?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, who would be so crazy?

Wu Kang asked Cornworth again: "What about you?" ”

Cornworth crossed his arms, thought for a moment, and nodded, "I will!" Isn't there a 1% chance? Worth! ”

Wu Kang smiled: "Isn't this the situation like this now? Eternal life! ”

Cornworth pinched his chin, his gaze wandering, and he was seriously considering.

"Which 1%, don't be frightened by him", Su Huan glanced at Wu Kang, and then said: "As long as you keep the spirit network connected at any time, I will rescue you immediately if there is a problem." Father...... The leader has sent us his memories of self-regeneration, and even if you only have a head, you will have a chance to recover it. ”

Cornworth exhaled, then turned pale. (To be continued.) )
