The lightning breath from the blue dragon was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the earth line.

There is no blood to act as a barrier against lightning, and it is almost instantaneously carbonized by the high heat of the lightning flowing through it.

And even the places that were not carbonized were completely destroyed by the invasion of the huge lightning that contained the life force.

The barrier of blood energy also seems to have vitality, no, it should be said that the lightning with vitality breaks through, turning another part of the flesh and blood of the body into charcoal.

Even part of the head was turned to black ash in the lightning that contained life force.

However......

Even though more than a third of his body was charred, he was still alive.

He can still think, he can still have his own will.

Why?

The earth has thought a lot, whether it is about everything that the label [HP] represents, or about his own form of existence.

He wondered, in what form did his mind exist in the carrier before using the core gesture?

The "core" itself, and how it stores his thoughts.

When I change my core posture and become what I am today, what kind of changes have I made in my thinking carrier?

And now, he is sure of one thing.

His thoughts may not be stored in the "brain".

So, where should it be?

When he found that he was still able to transmit messages to other nest dragons through blood energy fluctuations, he couldn't help but have an idea.

The Ground Row chooses to let the Nest Dragons send themselves back to the Dragon's Lair first.

......

Among the carbonized "corpses" on the surface, blood could seep out, and a huge, crystalline red giant egg stood on the platform of the dragon's nest.

The entire dragon's nest, at this time, was completely silent.

A strange fluctuation, a fluctuation from blood energy, was rapidly spreading throughout the dragon's lair.

The experience of almost being killed, but at that moment, Di Xing felt as if he had broken free from some restraints.

That feeling only lasted for a moment.

Countless attempts were made, but they were unable to regain the feeling that surfaced at that moment.

In the end, the local bank chose to give up for the time being.

And on the side of the nest platform, in addition to the ground line, there are guard eggs that appear on the nest platform.

Once again, he set his sights on the group of labeled organisms that have the most to do with the brain.

What exactly are "thinking", "memory", "spirit", and "personality"?

The evolution of neural structures is not entirely mystical to past lives.

There has been one mystery after another, being revealed.

One hypothesis is that the source of nerve cells is immune cells with deformable functions such as white blood cells.

As members of the immunomodulatory system, they need to clean up foreign invaders, they need to clean up dead cells, and they have a kind of "superior authority" in their own right.

They can "command" cells to disintegrate themselves, and this "command" needs to be achieved by passing a substance into the corresponding cells.

This hypothesis is not a speculation without roots and without actual cases.

Among the existing organisms, those organisms that already have neural structures, all kinds of immune cells have a similar tendency to develop.

Dendritic cells, whose function is "antigen presentation".

Whether it is compared to the delivery of express delivery in the logistics process or the delivery of evidence in legal criminal investigation, they are themselves a kind of "joint" process.

And in its own right, it is also considered by some to be a state between immune cells and nerve cells.

The bioelectrical signals between cells, the "telesignals" triggered by the potential difference in the membrane of the cells, are the basic units of "consciousness" that make up the various activities of living organisms.

Memory, experience, and all kinds of "things" that human beings regard as part of their "self" and "personality" are in fact nothing but a product of wholeness.

"Personality" itself is a product of the whole, not something that exists independently.

In previous lives, in modern society, there are often various things that personify and personify various groups.

The various organisms themselves can also be regarded as a kind of non-standard "gestalt".

It is pieced together by countless units that do not possess basic consciousness to form a "conscious" unit.

Before, Dixing was thinking about a problem.

The act of "breathing", the various respiration-related organs themselves, is actually just the result of an exploration on the way in which the organism is constantly obtaining energy from the outside world.

"Breathing" itself is not absolute.

The significance of respiration is the energy conversion efficiency of the chemical reaction in which the oxygen is brought in.

Anaerobic respiration is also a way of converting and delivering energy.

So, through the "elements", through these "energies" of the other world, is it feasible to use them as transit substances to obtain external energy?

Even, can the electrical signals between cells be replaced by these energies?

Because, their circulation process is very efficient.

So, here's the problem.

When the spirit, personality, wisdom, and consciousness of living beings are themselves the products of the overall structure, is there a way to preserve the personality state of the living beings that originate from the physical body?

Oh, and to use a more colloquial explanation, it's "transformatting".

Suppose the personality shaped by the information structure of the flesh is a JPG image.

So, can it be reproduced in another form, in another body, in another body of a different structure, to express it in the format of a PNG image? jújíá?y.?? m

Or analogous to the format of a video.

Is the so-called "soul" in humanistic fantasy the "personality" information of the whole body transposed to another substance?

This may also be analogous to "consciousness uploading", in which the overall "personality" of human biological information is stored in another architecture in the form of digital electronic signals.

As for one of the most important issues -

In the process of transversion, how much information is lost, how much information is damaged, and can the different carrier structures fully express the wholeness of a person?

Take, for example, the infinite enumeration method of a monkey typewriter.

If you record every change in every way of your behavior in all situations, and then burn all of them on the computer, is it still you?

Back to this classic ethical question.

What is "I".

Whether "I" is unique or not.

Whether "I" can be transferred.

Whether "I" can change.

Standards, and what are they? Standards, can they be changed? What is this standard?

On this ethical issue, the ship of Theseus, although it does not fully meet the applicable conditions, can make an incomplete analogy.

Even if you can perfectly replicate all the information architecture and express a "personality" that is exactly like you, then, is it you?

Was he, the earthly walker, really "resurrected"?

He, the earth, really "crossed" into this world?

What if .......

His form of existence has become a structure of energy fluctuations similar to electromagnetic waves, so is he still on the ground?

Above the crystalline giant egg of the dragon's nest, blood energy fluctuates throughout the dragon's nest.

The outline of a blood-scaled dragon was formed in the information that the blood energy fluctuated and expressed.

If I'm not the earthly walker, who am I? Should I act according to my body's "instincts" and the behavioral tendencies expressed in this framework?

Self, does it make sense?

Does it need to make sense to follow?

Nihilism?

What should I do?

What should I not do?

PS: It's a bit of a spoiler, but you can understand it that way.

Dixing is at a fork in the road of "consciousness" evolution.

As for memes and the like, I won't repeat them, and the clichés in the crows are not the point.

The theme of this book is the evolution of the structure of "matter".

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
