"Sneer......"

The heavy pneumatic door slid open to both sides, and inside was Li Rui's private laboratory. The original K2 elemental generator has been removed and moved elsewhere, freeing up a huge space.

In the laboratory, Li Rui was discussing some technical issues with a silver-haired angel. In front of the two of them, there was a huge ball of bright silver metal, which looked like it was natural, without any seams or anything like that.

With a finger of Li Rui's hand, a crack opened in the metal ball in front of him, followed by a clattering sound, and after a burst of sci-fi-style deformation, the metal ball in front of him turned into a three-meter-tall robot.

"The morphing element you're working on is kind of interesting, because it can turn the machine into a preset shape depending on the setting. But for what? Hexi crossed his arms and looked at the robot in front of him, and asked puzzledly.

What can Li Rui say, it can't be said to be to unlock the task. Therefore, he could only reply: "At first, it was just to speed up the progress of several large-scale projects of the alliance, and I wanted to find a multi-purpose robot to replace human production." The discovery of this element was purely accidental. ”

The transformation of the mechanical body in front of me has gone smoothly, but the problem is that even though it seems to be the same as the transformation process of the Transformers in the movie, there is still an essential difference.

The deformation of the machine is based on a program implanted in it, and is manipulative, not by the machine itself. To put it more bluntly, this thing in front of me can only be regarded as an empty shell, lacking a core soul.

"Accident?" He Xi stared at him with interest for a while, and quipped: "You have a lot of accidents here, first the K2 element that can affect the stability of time and space, and this time there is this element that can deform the mechanical body, and the frequency of accidents is quite high." ”

"Well, preparing, preparing." Li Rui was very modest, and he didn't seem to find the meaning of Hexi's ridicule at all.

"Say you're fat, you're still panting. Say, what are you looking for me? ”

Li Rui's face became a little more serious, "There is a description of 'spirit and consciousness' in the data I sent you, have you seen it?" ”

He Xi was slightly stunned, and after a little search, he knew it: "You are referring to the book "Consciousness and Matter" written by Carl? ”

"Yes, that's it." Li Rui affirmed.

That book is one of the results of Li Rui's interception of Demon No. 1, and it should have been written a long time ago, during the period when the Super Divine Academy was still cooperating with angels.

The book puts forward a point of view: spirit and matter, the two influence each other but maintain a certain degree of independence, spirit is based on matter, but higher than matter. In a particular environment, the spirit can exist independently of matter.

Li Rui wants to make a fire source, and other problems are easy to say, and there are solutions to them, and the core problem is the soul. Transformers are not simple robots, they have souls like humans and belong to silicon-based life. True life cannot be created without solving the problem of the soul, which is the fire.

And the book of Karl that was seized from Morgana inspired Li Rui. The spirit and the soul are very closely linked, and perhaps the spirit can be used as a starting point to peek into the mysteries of the soul.

"Spirit." He Xi muttered a little, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Carl's form of existence is called 'phantom body' in the known universe, and Keisha and I once had conjectures about the so-called phantom body, after all, this thing does not depend on matter, it is unpredictable, and it has too much impact on the future." Now it seems that it should be a spiritual body that has been detached from material dependence. ”

"Actually, we have also studied the spiritual body. In the sacred atomic technology I studied, there was the question of reconstructing the body of thought. After all, when the four generations of divine bodies were broken up into countless particles, how to maintain a complete mind became the biggest problem.

Based on this technique, Keisha and I have also developed the technique of suppressing the spirit body, but the gap is still too big for the technology of Bikal, which can allow the spirit to exist separately from matter. ”

Speaking of this, Hexu looked at Li Rui: "It's a pity that the spirit body suppression technology is highly encrypted, and I don't have the permission to access it." If you want the spirit suppression technique, I can synchronize the data to the ontology and see what the ontology decides. ”

Li Rui pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry about it first, I'll try it myself first to see if I can find some ways." ”

"Well, I respect your decision." Crane nodded his head.

As he spoke, the door of the laboratory opened, and a military-uniformed Qi Lin walked in from outside.

"What's the matter with calling me over in such a hurry?" Qi Lin nodded to Hexi, and then asked.

She knew about the existence of the doppelganger puppet, and she didn't mean to reveal it to the other angels. After all, Qi Lin is Li Rui's closest person, and there are many things that can't avoid her.

"Yes, indeed, about some experiments."

"Experiments?" Qi Lin was slightly surprised: "What experiments do you need me to help with?" ”

Li Rui pointed to her eyes: "I need you to help me see something." ”

Qi Lin's eyes can see the soul, so she can clearly see some subtle changes in Li Rui's experiments.

Ever since the Kuntasha template was unlocked, Li Rui has always felt like he had forgotten something. It wasn't until I saw Qi Lin that I realized what I had overlooked, but it was actually very simple: in Asgardian technology, there was a micro-manipulation technology that directly targeted the soul. But this technology is also only manipulation, not direct creation of souls, which is the forbidden territory of the gods, and Asgard has not yet been able to reach it.

It was for this reason that Qi Lin came over to help.

As for why he told Hexi, it is actually related to the righteous order of the angels: they prohibit the evil human body modification technology.

But if Li Rui's template task is unlocked, it can directly create life, and the impact on the angel's righteous order can be imagined.

Therefore, the reason why Li Rui asked for Hexi's opinion was just to throw stones and ask for directions. At the moment, it seems that Hexu is not very opposed.

"Experiment, do you still need me?" Qi Lin pointed at herself in surprise.

Good fellow, she's been researched ever since this bastard tricked herself into the Torch Project under the guise of a researcher, and she didn't expect to be assisted in the research one day.

At this moment, Qi Lin had a feeling of turning over as a serf and singing.

Therefore, she immediately put up the shelf: "Think about it." ”

Li Rui glanced at her with disgust: "Don't make trouble, come over quickly." ”

The crane on the side couldn't help but smile, these little two are sometimes really interesting.

After a while, Li Rui took out an experimental sample from the biological area of the laboratory - a guinea pig.

That's right, it's the biggest consumable in the lab.

Immediately, Li Rui mobilized Odin's power, and one by one mysterious runes began to condense at the tip of his right finger.

Seeing this scene, Hexu immediately cheered up. Since obtaining the complete set of runes and paraphrases in rune literature, she has also tried to write a part of the rune sequence, and the effect is amazing.

After realizing the potential of the runes, Crane Xuan naturally did not miss any opportunity to learn.

Qi Lin also leaned over, her eyes blooming with a strange brilliance, obviously entering some kind of mysterious state. Jokes aside, she also wants to see what Li Rui wants to do.

Gradually, more and more runes gathered at Li Rui's fingertips, and the number had exceeded the 10,000 mark. The light naturally released by the many runes condensed together, making it seem as if a small sun was gathering on his fingertips.

Finally, Li Rui's preparations seemed to be complete, and a strange syllable came out of his throat, and his finger pressed to the mouse in front of him.

The next moment, the light burst out.

The little mouse in front of him screamed, and suddenly fell straight into the cage.

The two people behind him showed shocked looks in their eyes at this moment.

"What did you do?" He asked with a solemn face.

In her dark perspective, the body of the mouse in front of her is still active, but it no longer has the dark data that life should have.

Before Li Rui could answer, Qi Lin spoke: "At that moment, the soul of this little mouse was killed. No, it can't be described as killing, it should be erased. ”

Slay...... Soul?

He Xi was stunned, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Rui shook his head in disappointment: "For the first time, it seems that I used too much force." Forget it, do it again! ”
