Chapter 236: Antarctic Love

On the fifth day of Antarctica, Hou Dalin had transformed his hiding place into an ice palace.

But no matter how beautiful the Ice Palace is, it is only for viewing, because the temperature here is still very low. In order to combat the severe cold, Hou Dalin used the wood he got out during this time to build a small cabin for himself.

He has built this kind of thing many times, and the process is very skillful. And this time it's still "indoors", so the process can be a little simpler.

In this ice palace, the temperature is only minus seven or eight degrees. In Hou Dalin's cabin, the temperature at this time can reach about eighteen.

Firewood was used for heating, and the chimney was extended directly to the ice sheet with an iron pipe.

Although Hou Dalin came here with a tourist component, how could he be all for tourism? Over the years, it has been learned through some sources that in ancient times, the Antarctic continent may have also been a prosperous world. However, as it gradually became the magnetic pole of the earth, it was covered with snow and ice.

His purpose this time is to find one or two specimens of animals and plants from ancient times under the ice and snow in Antarctica. Although ice and snow have exterminated countless animals and plants, it is also because of ice and snow that these animals and plants can be preserved intact.

Although I don't know if studying this will help the restart of the long-frozen life, Hou Dalin is interested in giving it a try. And not only that, but through the study of ancient creatures, you may be able to discover some secrets of evolution.

Taking advantage of the good weather in the past two days, Hou Dalin packed his things and prepared to go out to find a place to dig a hole. In Antarctica, "archaeology" is more difficult than in other continents. The large amount of ice covered in the place is his biggest obstacle.

Trying to know what's underneath the ice, especially where the creature he's looking for, is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Of course, Hou Dalin came over to try his luck, where did he know where he had what he wanted? His approach is very simple, that is, follow the feeling, and if he feels that there may be something in this place, then activate his superpowers, and then dig it.

So for Hou Dalin, the location he chose for himself to dig the hole was about ten meters to the left of his residence. It's pretty much the same everywhere anyway, so why bother running so far?

Hou Dalin came prepared this time, he fixed some equipment on the ground, and then used some wood to build a wooden shed to prevent ice and snow, and then began his life of burrowing.

The entrance to the cave sloped downward, at a perfect angle of forty-five degrees to the ground, and then, Hou Dalin began to enter and exit frequently. As the hole got deeper and deeper, Hou Dalin certainly couldn't rely on his physical strength to climb up and down. The equipment he placed at the entrance of the cave was actually an electric winch that pulled an iron box through a wire rope to complete the action of entering and exiting the ice cave.

And Hou Dalin sat in this iron box, and then used the remote control to control himself to go up or down. After seven or eight days like this, Hou Dalin finally dug to the depth he wanted. Unfortunately, before he could rejoice, an uninvited guest suddenly arrived.

This afternoon, a plane crashed under the influence of a blizzard, but the crash is a crash, but before the plane crashed, it was installed on the glacier where Hou Dalin was, due to Hou Dalin's operation here in the early stage, the interior of the glacier was hollow, resulting in being hit by the plane, and a corner of his ice palace began to collapse.

Along with it, the nearby glacier began to crumble and then crashed down to the ground. The crashed plane landed at the entrance of the hole, and one of the people inside fell directly into the hole, and then slid all the way to the bottom of the hole.

That is, Hou Dalin opened up enough space here, and he also moved the iron climbing plow he used up and down at an angle, otherwise the person who slid down, even if he didn't fall to his death, would have crashed into the iron climbing plow or the ice wall and died.

Hou Dalin was in this space, and just about to go over to see the situation, then he heard a sound from the entrance of the cave, and then, a large amount of ice and snow covered it, completely sealing this space.

Hou Dalin was lucky, he was not injured at this time, but he was sealed hundreds of meters underground, and this feeling was not good.

With the help of the light, Hou Dalin looked at the person who fell in, it was a woman. It's just that by this time she was already unconscious, struggling on the verge of death.

The temperature here is very low, although it is really hundreds of meters underground, but there is ice all around, coupled with the injuries from her crash, Hou Dalin feels that if he does not intervene, this woman will definitely die.

But it's not easy to save him, his power supply is enough for him to light a few lights, and if he wants to give her a warm environment, Hou Dalin can only take the way of igniting a fire.

But now that the entrance of the cave is buried, the air here has become very precious, and he still wants to light a fire, Hou Dalin feels that this girl can only be regarded as unlucky.

After half an hour of uselessness, the woman's body was already hard. At this time, this space is a natural large freezer, no matter how many people are in it, it can freeze you into a popsicle.

However, the only thing that made Hou Dalin feel fortunate was that the materials he brought were quite abundant, and if he started digging up now, his hope of going out was still very great.

In order to speed up his escape, Hou Dalin had to release a simulated robot in the space and then let him dig a hole. This thing is still a method he has only come up with in the last two days. Here, although he has limited energy, he is not short of food, and as long as there is enough food and water, his simulated robot can have infinite power.

But the downside is that it also consumes oxygen. However, calculated by the cost-effectiveness ratio, Hou Dalin still feels that it is more effective to make such a thing.

The robot did not disappoint him, and it took less than two days for it to open the passage to the ground. Then Hou Dalin dragged the woman's body onto the iron climbing plow, and then let the robot pull himself out through the wire rope.

By the time Hou Dalin came up, everything on the ground had changed beyond recognition. Thankfully, his cabin wasn't destroyed, which saved him a lot of effort.

The wreckage of the plane had been buried by ice and snow, and Hou Dalin was still not at ease, afraid that someone would find this place according to the black box of the plane. So in order to protect his secret, Hou Dalin still managed to completely destroy the black box of this plane, and then he dragged the corpse to his ice palace.

A corner of the ice palace has collapsed, but the wind and snow of the past two days have re-frozen the collapsed part, turning the place into an enclosed space again.

Now that there is a ready-made sample, Hou Dalin feels that it really shouldn't be wasted, and he wants to try it on this corpse to see if he can recover her frozen brain through some methods.

For a long time afterward, Hou Dalin didn't go out of this place, and with such a good research sample, he really didn't want to give up easily.

This is not to say that he could not find such a test subject by other means, but how to say it, as long as it is in China, this kind of test must be illegal. However, Hou Dalin has not known how much animal experiments have been done over the years, and no matter how much data he obtains, there is no guarantee that it will be realized in humans.

And this time, God sent him an experimental subject, and of course he should cherish it.

The robot was used by him as an assistant during this time, of course, not as an experimental assistant, but as a life assistant. For example, the work of lighting a fire, cleaning up garbage, etc., is carried out by this robot.

It still has no intelligence in itself, and it relies on computer programs and replica brains to do all the work. And what Hou Dalin has to do this time is to find a way to resurrect this frozen woman.

It's just that this work is not something that can be done casually. Hou Dalin needs to prepare a lot of things for these tests.

Half a year later, Hou Dalin finally completed his masterpiece, looking at a crystal-like container at this time, a brain immersed in liquid, a large number of wires connected to this brain, Hou Dalin felt a burst of excitement.

Give her a body Such a thing Hou Dalin can't do it at the moment, it's not a bat lizard or something, it can be made into a semi-mechanical structure. She doesn't know this person, what if she gets something like Superman, what if she runs away? Wouldn't that expose him too?

Hou Dalin thought of a way that was not a way at this time, he made her a brain in a jar, in order to give this brain in a jar component 2 a virtual world, she also used a replica brain that he had saved in the space before, and made a host.

This replica brain is unconscious, of course, this unconscious does not mean that he is dead, but this brain does not have its own thinking like normal people.

Although he has no thinking, but this is still no problem with all aspects of the brain, Hou Dalin used computer technology to combine this brain to make a semi-biological computer. Its main function is to build a virtual world in the field of consciousness with the help of computers through the imagination of the brain.

The ability of the human brain in this area far exceeds the world's most advanced computing, in addition to the speed of computing and the amount of data, its biggest feature is that it can be at the same frequency as the human brain. To put it simply, he can instantly build an ideal world for a conscious brain through conscious connection.

With excitement, Hou Dalin turned on the switch of this device, and with the stimulation of a burst of bioelectricity, the brain in the jar slowly woke up.

Susie is a biologist who came to Antarctica to study the moss. Unfortunately, her luck was not good, the plane had only arrived here for a long time, and she encountered this plane crash. Several people who accompanied her were buried under the ice and snow, and even she froze to death, and finally became Hou Dalin's test subject.

But she didn't know that.

Her last impression was that the plane slammed into the glacier, and then, there was no more.

Susie felt herself slowly waking up, and what greeted her was a world like a crystal palace.

She opened her eyes, and then tried to move her body, but unfortunately, the sharp pain in her legs made her grin for a while.

"Ahh It hurts. Susie couldn't help but shout, this time, Hou Dalin, who was watching her from the perspective of God through the monitor, was stunned.

This girl is obviously a blond and blue-eyed crooked nut, why does she subconsciously speak Chinese? it! The one who "mutilated" himself shouldn't be a countryman, right?

"Huh? Are you awake? Don't move, your leg hurts. I've taken care of it for you, and you're going to have to lie down for three months before you can move. ”

It was a man who spoke, Susie knew him, he was the pilot of the plane. A native of the face of the East.

"Where are we?" Susie couldn't help asking.

"In an ice cave, our plane crashed, and at the last moment, we were thrown out by the plane and landed in this ice cave. However, the plane hit the glacier and caused the collapse, and the entrance to the ice cave has been sealed. ”

"What's your name? I know you're a pilot, but I don't know your name yet! Susie wants to pull in the relationship between the two people, after all, their current situation is very worrying.

"You can call me Jack or Lee." When the man spoke again, his smile was so warm that it made Susie's heart tremble when she was lying on a unit price. A love-like electric current instantly spread throughout her body.

What she didn't know was that all of this was actually just her hallucination, or a scene that Hou Dalin had built for her through the peripheral computer and the brain.

It's just that this scene changes with Susie's imagination, that is, including the image of this Jack, it is actually given to this system by this Susie.

And the environment of this ice cave was built by the host, and the reason why it is such an environment is just that Hou Dalin is lazy and makes it surrounded by ice and snow walls, which is much simpler than other environments.

In the following period, this Susie and the other Jack became closer and closer, and they thought of countless ways to survive. Some things that really violate scientific common sense, Hou Dalin, the god, helped them solve them.

For example, in the air, Hou Dalin directly opened a hole in the top of the room in this constructed virtual world, and this hole occasionally had a light shine in.

It is impossible for people to survive for a long time in a cold environment, so Hou Dalin added a hot spring to this place! Around the hot springs, there is also a piece of land where they can plant some of the seeds they brought in by plane.

The hot springs form a river in this cave, and in this river, there are always some fish swimming around. Not only fish, but also occasionally animals such as penguins or seals fall through the holes overhead.

In order to make this environment more realistic, Hou Dalin even asked Jack, the male protagonist in it, to find a wooden boat frozen up. With the tools they found on this boat, they built a small cabin on the edge of the hot springs.

When they became more and more familiar, the two of them lived the same life as a paradise from then on.

It was isolated from the world, there was food and drink, and even Hou Dalin even obtained an isotope thermomotor through Jack, so that their hut was not only warm, but also electric.

Although their electricity can only light up a few light bulbs, their world has changed a lot. For example, there is music, there are movies, and even they can watch satellite TV.

In short, everything is so illusory and real! For the current Susie, she is not without doubts, but how can people doubt their own brains? Every time she doubts herself, it is proved by another brain that she is actually wrong.

Hou Dalin's observation of her lasted for a long time, and later, Hou Dalin basically didn't buy anything for them. When they need something, the brain, as the host, can even actively calculate and evaluate whether to provide her with such items.

It's a very, very interesting phenomenon, it's like two intertwined dreams, and you can't tell whether you're living in your own dreams or someone else's dreams. When this suspicion reaches a certain level, the human brain will produce a self-protection mechanism, so that you suddenly no longer have any doubts, and what you see and feel, your brain will make you think that it is really there.

Susie may never know that her world may just be her imagination. Or maybe it was a "God" like Hou Dalin who built everything in her life for her.

In the end, Hou Dalin gave the device the tightest protection measures he could. And the power supply of this device, Hou Dalin really gave it an isotope generator. Theoretically, as long as nothing happens, Susie will be able to live in her dreams until the last day of her life.

By the time he got to this stage of his experimentation, he had little interest. The biological robot Hou Dalin stayed, and they transformed Hou Dalin into a penguin-like appearance. And their mission, in addition to providing the necessary protection for this "base", is to provide food for the peripheral devices of this brain. The food is processed into nutrients in the bodies of these biochemical penguins to meet the needs of the human brain, providing enough nutrients to the brain in the tank.

Hou Dalin has been here for a long time, and what he wants to do is basically done. And Susie, who crashed, also made him unexpectedly do such an experiment. He is very much looking forward to what kind of life and what kind of love story he will see when he comes here again in a few decades. After packing everything, Hou Dalin walked towards the edge of the Antarctic continent with the help of several dogs. The dogs were also prepared in advance by Hou Dalin, who sat on a sleigh and ran towards the Antarctic coast.
