No. 5 Living Base.

Su He took advantage of Shen Mu's toilet to find him.

"Damn, you're sick, I won't be so nervous even if I'm short on time."

"You're sick, can't I just come over to the bathroom?"

"Okay, okay, the camera is in your hand, you can say whatever you want."

"Who will bring a camera when a serious person goes to the toilet, will you bring it?"

"I won't."

After a few sentences, Su He couldn't help but start asking questions after all.

"Have you ever heard of neural linking technology?"

"I've heard of it, what's wrong?"

"If the neural link technology has made a breakthrough, Lao Ji, won't it work?"

"Huh? Why do you ask? ”

"You just say no."

Su He's question made Shen Mu ponder, as a professional and technical lieutenant mechanic, he has been a genius in the mouth of others since he was a child, and he was specially recruited to the Mecha Research Institute of the Federal Academy of Sciences for further study before graduating from university, and he got the rank of second lieutenant when he just joined the army when he graduated.

Therefore, in the professional issues of mecha maintenance, research and development, and manufacturing, he is more than one level stronger than Ji Xinghe. Without him, Xingyue would not have been able to succeed.

"Theoretically, yes, if it's the kind of neural linking technology I know...... It can't be said that Lao Ji can't do it, his strength in driving the mecha is no different from now, and he won't get weaker. But in the case that all the mecha warriors who can use this technology have been strengthened, it can indeed be said that Lao Ji is not good. ”

Su He asked puzzledly, "Why?" Can't Lao Ji use this technology? Can't he be stronger? ”

"Because of age, as we age, the nervous system begins to deteriorate, which is irreversible at the current level of science and technology." After Shen Mu explained, he felt that Su He might not understand, so he said it in a different way.

"Lao Su, you can drive."

"Nonsense."

"The human mental will and thinking can be compared to the driver who drives a car, and the human body is the car. Lao Ji's car is aging and backward, but because his driver, that is, his mental will, is very strong, and he also attaches great importance to the maintenance of this car, so he can still drive his old car on the track and compete with real professional racing drivers. Do you understand me when I say that? ”

Su He nodded, but because the two of them were in different compartments, Shen Mu couldn't see it.

"Understand, according to your words, young mechwarriors, their bodies are equivalent to the latest sports cars, or the most advanced formula cars. Therefore, their skills may not be as good as Lao Ji, but when they are really compared to the field, they can drive faster than Lao Ji. ”

"That's right." Shen Mu sighed: "In a sense, the neural link technology is to make the vehicles owned by the young mecha warriors more powerful. But this kind of technology can't be applied to Ji Xinghe's old car, so he may not be able to do it. ”

Su He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Is there a way to solve this problem?" ”

"There's no way." Shen Mu replied without any hesitation, and then explained: "The difference between the central nervous system and other organs is that its cells are not renewable, the number of nerve cells will decrease with normal aging, the number of cranial nerve cells in the elderly will decrease by 10% to 30% compared with when they were young, and the number of dendrites, dendritic ridges and synapses of the cerebral cortex and pyramidal cells...... Wait, uh, professional-related explanations, I'll go back and find you a paper, you can read it for yourself when the time comes, and I'll explain it to you directly. ”

"When people get old, the conduction speed of motor and sensory fibers slows down, and the enzyme activity involved in the metabolism of various neurotransmitters in the human brain decreases, which is manifested in symptoms such as memory loss, movement disorders, tremor paralysis, poor sleep, mental depression or mania."

Su He asked puzzledly: "But Lao Ji doesn't have these symptoms." ”

"Really, not?" Shen Mu asked rhetorically: "Do you remember that Lao Ji was holding a cripple in one hand and another first-class mecha warrior in the other, and then asked Lieutenant Colonel Chen Xun, instructor, how do you choose?" ”

Su He remembered that scene, at that time he felt that Lao Ji was too impulsive, if it weren't for Lao Ji's old age and Lieutenant Colonel Chen Xun being very tolerant, just by virtue of that sentence, Lao Ji would have to bear the military legal treatment.

"All in all, Lao Ji is indeed very strong, but just like I just said, his strength is only because his spiritual will is very strong, and he has practiced martial arts all year round, so his physical function is very good, but this aging is really irreversible."

Shen Mu began to get up after pulling it out, and said to Su He while lifting his pants: "If it is the kind of neural link technology I know, then, even if Lao Ji successfully has a built-in brain-computer interface, it is impossible for him to control the mecha like he controls his body, his aging nervous system can't hold it, and only young people can withstand it." ”

"Brain-computer interface?"

"Well, brain-computer interface, install an interface behind your head, and link it to the operating system of the mecha, this is the way the mecha drives after the application of neural link technology." Shen Mu's action as he was about to open the toilet door paused for a moment, and then continued: "I haven't said one thing just now, after people get old, the autonomic nervous system will also undergo corresponding changes, and it is no longer governed by the subjective will, and the autonomic nerve function of the human body is disordered, resulting in various internal organ dysfunction, such as the number of heart beats, the number of peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, and so on. ”

Su He frowned and asked, "I'm not old, I can't control my autonomic nerves, I can't control the heartbeat and gastrointestinal tract you said." ”

"Just because you don't know you can control it doesn't mean you really can't control it." Shen Mu asked, "When you breathe, do you need to take the initiative to control it?" ”

"No."

"Normally you don't need to, but when I ask you this question, when you think that you need to breathe, you need to control your breathing. It's like when you're driving, you change from automatic to manual, isn't it? ”

Su He had already begun to control his breathing, and said, "That's the case." ”

"The heart and other internal organs are actually the same, they are all controlled by our subjective will, but this control can be understood as automatic transmission, specifically, you can ask experts in related aspects." Shen Mu finally opened the toilet door, and said as he walked out: "This kind of autonomic dysfunction is the reason why I said that Lao Ji can't use this technique, he has practiced kung fu for fifty-five years, so he can continue to control his body after he is old, but he has not piloted a mecha for fifty-five years." ”

Creak.

Su He opened the toilet door and walked out, his expression ugly.

Shen Mu glanced at Su He's trouser belt: "You really came to me while I was in the toilet, and you didn't come to at all." ”

"Didn't I pull it out?" Su He was in a bad mood.

"Okay, okay, it's all said, you can say whatever you want with the camera." Shen Mu didn't mean to argue, and his expression became serious: "Why are you asking me this?" ”

Su He sighed: "Actually, you have already guessed, why ask me again." ”

Shen Mu did guess that he had known for a long time that this technology would make a breakthrough, as could be seen from the blind man's mechanical eye, the lame's mechanical leg, and the left-handed manipulator, which also used neural link technology.

"But isn't that a good thing?" Shen Mu asked puzzledly: "Lao Ji is so old, can't he be allowed to drive the mecha to fight all the time, protecting the family and defending the country is a matter for our young people." And Shin Shin, in another year or so, Shin Shin's treatment will be completed, and then Lao Ji will live with Shin Shin Club Blue Star, and he won't need to drive a mecha. ”

"I also hope that Lao Ji will return to Azure Star with Xinxin." Su He said depressedly: "But didn't you notice that Lao Ji actually hasn't forgotten about revenge?" ”

Shen Mu was silent.

He knew that Ji Xinghe had always wanted revenge, and everyone who knew Ji Xinghe knew it, and Ji Rong Xinyue also knew it.

Otherwise, why would Ji Xinghe want to take a risk to fight in the relatively safe days of base five?

If it is just to help win this war, is the role that a professional-level mechanic can play, and the role that a peerless master can play as an instructor, is it really smaller than the role that a super-level mecha warrior can play when he goes to fight?

"That can't be helped." Shen Mu turned around and walked outside the toilet: "I really can't help Lao Ji in this matter, no one can help him." Unless ......"

Su He chased after him: "Unless what? ”

"Unless a higher-level breakthrough is made in neural link technology, a complete and powerful nervous system can be transformed for Lao Ji, but this breakthrough is not impossible to complete in 1,200 years, but Lao Ji can't last that time."

"Nonsense, Lao Ji will definitely not last that time, and we will not be able to hold it either. Lao Ji is a martial arts practitioner, not an immortal cultivator. ”

"I hope that Lao Ji is an immortal cultivator now, I heard that cultivating immortals can make people younger, and the aging of the nervous system can definitely be reversed, so the neural link technology Lao Ji can be used."

"If Lao Ji is an immortal cultivator, he still uses neural link technology? Do you still need to turn on a mecha? Isn't Edgeworth fragrant? ”

"If there is a day, Lao Ji will not be able to use a sword, he will definitely use a sword, because he can't use a sword."

"Lao Ji can use a sword, his weapon has been replaced with a sword, have you heard of tungsten steel?"

"Damn, it's really fake, in front of that thing, ordinary empire-standard mecha can only be chopped and chopped vegetables."

"Really, Lao Ji grabbed a mecha heavy sword made of tungsten steel gold."

"Shhh...... Earl or Marquis? ”

"Earl."

", Lao Ji Niu, when will he come back, I can help him change the sword into a knife, if it is the eight chopping knife he likes, one heavy sword is completely enough to transform into two."

"It will take about a week, and he is now repairing mechs in a military camp."

"Help me contact him and ask him to bring the sword back, the equipment in the barracks is insufficient and can't be changed, our base can be changed."

"Then I'll tell him."

……

Ji Xinghe, who was repairing the mecha, received a message from Su He, saying that Ji Rong Xinyue was well, bringing Ji Rong Xinyue's greetings and Shen Mu's advice.

This made Ji Xinghe very happy, because he didn't know how to change the mecha heavy sword, and he still had to be a real professional Shen Mu.

He does know how to use a sword, but he is better at using a knife, especially the Eight Chopping Knife. Previously, because of the mismatch of weapons, his strength was not maximized.

But the heavy sword, which had been held by his mecha, was not put down. He couldn't leave the camp yet, and he wouldn't put down the sword until he left, because he was being suppressed.

The Galaxy team has left, and they are going to another battlefield, but Ji Xinghe, the captain of the Galaxy team, has not been able to follow, and from this point of view, the suppression he has encountered is already obvious.

In terms of his strength, the speed of obtaining Venus on the battlefield is definitely faster than that of the blind man and the lame man, even if the two of them not only have the help of the galaxy team, but also the help of the other two mecha teams.

He is even faster than Jackson and Han Li to obtain Venus at special grades, and in terms of strength, Jackson and Han Li are stronger than Ji Xinghe in terms of their mecha performance.

But they won't fight like Ji Xinghe.

Ji Xinghe is willing to fight, but he doesn't want to die, so his battle has always been described as strong and weak in essence.

Han Li, Jackson, and other special mecha warriors whose strength is equal to or surpassed Ji Xinghe will only be strong with strong attacks and strong with weak when fighting.

This is the responsibility and obligation that they are willing to bear, and it is the responsibility and obligation that Ji Xinghe is unwilling to bear.

Perhaps, this is also one of the reasons why Ji Xinghe was suppressed.

Since you are not willing to take on more responsibilities and obligations, why should you be given more resources and merits?

In the message from Su He, he bluntly said some things that Major General Tu Yuan said, which confirmed Ji Xinghe's analysis and speculation about his suppression.

But so what?

Ji Xinghe will not change for anyone except Ji Rong Xinyue, he used to be able to change for another person, but that person has already left this world.

"The actual machine test is complete."

Ji Xinghe, who repaired the twelfth mecha alone in five days, looked at the person who came to receive it next to him and said, "Help me settle the contribution points, thank you." ”
