Dr. Groh sighed, "It's a pity that we didn't have time to put Android 7 into mass production, and the legion was already destroyed by Sun Wukong." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 From this time on, the development of androids entered the second stage: making humanoid weapons that could kill Goku. ”

"The goal of the second stage can be divided into two stages: the first stage is just said, to develop a humanoid weapon that can kill Wukong, but as Sun Wukong's strength becomes stronger and stronger, the standard of this goal has to be higher and higher. By now, this goal has changed a bit, and it feels as if it is no longer 'developing a humanoid weapon that can kill Goku', but 'developing the strongest life' - Mr. Lehei, do you understand the difference between these two goals?"

Leping nodded: "Realizing the latter will almost certainly achieve the former at the same time, but achieving the former may not necessarily achieve the latter." ”

Dr. Gro nodded: "Needless to say, this goal is very difficult, from Android 9 to 12, although several of my test subjects cannot be said to be completely failed, but the distance from this goal seems to be getting farther and farther away - the gap between their strength and Goku is getting bigger and bigger." Frankly speaking, even if the current No. 16 is successfully developed, it is still unknown whether it can defeat Sun Wukong - judging from the current combat effectiveness that Mr. Leping has shown, this result is questionable. ”

"The 16th will be a success," Leping reassured—not a consolation.

"Take your good word. But I can't put all my eggs in one basket - and that's where Experiment 0 came about. When I realized that my goal had almost become 'developing the strongest living beings,' I simply took that as my goal. ”

Speaking of this, he was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "Needless to say, this goal is very challenging, and it is also very meaningful for people like me, so I also gave this artificial person a special number, No. 0." ”

"Collect the cells of all the strong and integrate them into one life, he must also have all the advantages of these strong people, and he will naturally become the strongest life form," Leping directly said the doctor's design idea, "Doctor, aren't you afraid of this Sharu - ah, no, it should be called android 0 now-he will gather all the shortcomings of the strong and turn it into an unprecedented failure?"

Dr. Groh spread his hands: "Then start all over again, can you still be afraid of failure in scientific research?"

Leping nodded, laughing at himself secretly: I actually forgot that these technical nerds are all such indomitable characters.

―――――― ―――――― cut ―――――― line――――――

"The strongest lifeform, this is the goal of the second stage, is there no goal of the third stage?"

"Of course there is - in the process of developing more powerful androids, I have also discovered that it is possible for androids to fulfill a dream that humanity has always dreamed of. ”

"You mean eternal life?" Leping understood as soon as he heard it.

Dr. Gro nodded: "People get sick and machines break down. However, when a machine fails, it only needs to replace the damaged parts to continue working, and when a person is sick, he cannot replace an organ - of course, this may be due to the current state of medical technology, after all, there are some organs that can be transplanted, even an organ such as the heart can be replaced with an artificial one. ”

After a pause, Dr. Groh added, "But there's one organ that can't be replaced in any way, and that's the brain. ”

"What do you want to say?" said Le Pingxin, I know all this. Changing the brain, that's simply changing a person.

"The brain cannot be replaced, but the brain itself is an organ that does not need to be replaced - if given the right environment, the brain will hardly die. When we talk about death, it is more because the organs of the body die in large quantities, and they cannot provide the environment that the brain needs to survive. ”

"But cyborgs – whether they are machines or biochemical mods – can always provide the brain with the environment it needs to survive because they can replace internal organs, or internal parts, indefinitely, and if they can do that, then theoretically the brain will not die. For those of us who 'I think, therefore I am', as long as the brain does not die, it is equivalent to immortality. ”

"Therefore, when the second phase of the android has not yet ended, the third phase of research has begun, which is the study of making people immortal. ”

"This study doesn't sound difficult. Leping frowned and said, "Find out the conditions that the brain needs to survive, and then artificially realize these conditions, and that's fine." ”

Dr. Groh didn't answer immediately, but looked Leping up and down again, and suddenly asked, "Mr. Leping, are you interested in coming to me as an assistant?"

The three fat classmates were stunned for a moment, and Leping was also stunned for a moment, and then he was a little puzzled: "Mr. Doctor, what do you think...... Am I qualified?"

The person who can be Dr. Gro's assistant should not be underestimated in his own ability, such as the three fat classmates, who are very strong radar experts.

Now Dr. Groh has issued an invitation, which is tantamount to acknowledging Leping's scientific ability.

Dr. Groh nodded, affirming Leping's doubts: "Mr. Leping, your mind is very flexible and quick to react, which is a very valuable quality for researchers. If you don't have this quality, no matter how many books you read and how high your knowledge is, you are just an old pedant who can't eat the ancients. Of course, the problem of academic ability cannot be ignored, but this can be made up by nurture, but the innate mental flexibility cannot be made up for - how about it, are you interested? ”

“...... Let's talk about it. I'm probably not used to the dark life in this base, and I don't like it. Of course, Leping wisely declined Dr. Gro's kindness, and at the same time pulled the topic back again: "Is there anything wrong with what I just said?"

Dr. Groh sighed softly, "I was reckless - as for Mr. Leping, what you just said is not bad, but it is not comprehensive. ”

"With the method you just mentioned, Mr. Leping, it is indeed possible to achieve the long-term survival of the brain. However, it only allows the brain to survive for a long time, but the meaning of letting the brain survive is gone. ”

"What is the meaning of the survival of the brain?"

"The brain is the command of the human body, and the meaning of the command is that it perceives external stimuli and then gives commands to various parts of the body to do certain things based on this stimulus. In what you said, Mr. Leping, although the brain can still survive, it cannot perceive the situation in the outside world, nor can it give orders to the outside. ”

Leping immediately understood, but Dr. Groh continued to explain: "In the human body, the brain relies on input nerves to perceive external conditions, and at the same time relies on output nerves to achieve command of the body, and the input nerves and output nerves add up to form the nervous system, and the nervous system is a very complex system, as far as human cognition of the human body and the level of technology are concerned, it is not possible to rely on artificial products to replicate this system." ”
