Chapter 417: The Ship of Theseus

The arrival of Dilo Beauvoir did not attract much attention from Don Quixote, in fact, after such a long time alone, although it is not a long-term relationship, the relationship between the two people is also as Don Quixote envisioned, they are still very good friends, but compared to the rapid progress of their own research, this woman is not so lucky.

There is no way ahead for her to say that she is making slow progress, Don Quixote's soul fluctuations are not a substance that exists, and the fluctuations that are not very strong in themselves will gradually disappear with the passage of time, which also brings a lot of trouble to the analysis and deconstruction, after all, she is different from Don Quixote, and can study her own soul.

Naturally, Don Quixote also saw the trace of jealousy and contempt in her eyes, but Don Quixote, who did not take the initiative to exert soul fluctuations, would hardly have any compassion, after all, it was this woman who forced her to trap herself, which is also a famous saying on the earth, if you don't die, you won't die, some people just don't understand!

Of course, what Don Quixote didn't know was that it was Apollo Ding who was actually smiling the most now, whether it was the closer relationship that justified the future contact, or the transformation of talent that allowed Don Quixote to reach the Dharma God more quickly, either of them was the result she expected.

In the past month or so, Apollo Ding was happiest that he had been obsessed with Don Quixote more than once, but every time he was very restrained, not as crazy as the first time, so although Don Quixote had a few more dreams like **, he did not lose sperm again, and his waist did not hurt.

For his old **, Don Quixote's explanation to himself is that it is estimated that he has been abstinent for more than a month, and he is also very strong, thinking of this, Don Quixote took a deep breath, and no longer thought about those who had or not, but put all his energy on the magic array, because after a period of warm-up, the entire magic array has completely begun to rotate-

At this time, Don Quixote had already stripped off all his clothes and suspended above the lava pool, if it weren't for Diro Beauva, he wouldn't even be able to wear**, but Don Quixote, who has never been exhibitionist, still chose to keep** Don Quixote slowly opened his arms, looking like the Jesus who was about to suffer, in fact, it was about to be the same, with the operation of the magic array, the number and the cyan needles constructed by the basic elements of the wind system pierced Don Quixote's body from different positions, and after the purification of the bloodline, such a dispersed and evenly injected setting would make the whole body slowly rise and change, which is more reasonable.

Sharp enough to ignore Don Quixote's body that had undergone the dragon's blood twice, the sharp needle pierced directly through the skin, dermis, muscles, and finally pierced into the bones, although this step was a little painful, but it was still easy for Don Quixote's entire family to bear, the only thing that might have some problems was Shirley, but with a few lollipops should be able to fool the past. Before the first wave of pain went away, these hollow needles began to extract the bone marrow from the bones under the control of the magic array.

To Don Quixote feels like it's painful and itchy, and it's a feeling that comes from the gap in the bones, and there is no place to scratch it if you want to rely on scratching, because your fingers can't reach into the bone marrow at all, which can't help but remind him of the life and death charm mentioned in a novel he read in his last life, there is really a feeling that he can't survive, he can't die, of course, as a lich it could have shielded this feeling, but unfortunately for the sake of his family, Don Quixote still decided to experience all the feelings throughout the whole process, so as not to have any errors in the future.

The only thing to be thankful for is that this feeling did not last long, after all, the inventor of the spell, Apollo Ding, also knew that the consequences of extracting a large amount of a person's bone marrow were devastating, so this talent transformation spell would be a somewhat long spell, each time the transformation was a little bit, and the next transformation would not be carried out until the body was completely recovered, so at this moment, the number around Don Quixote and the hollow cyan needles each contained a certain amount of red viscous liquid, that is, bone marrow, in order to prevent the caster from moving during this period, Don Quixote at this time was really fixed in this enchantment, some of which are similar to spells of spatial confinement.

The next moment, under the stimulation of the magic array, the fire of the earth in the lava fire in the center of the earth gushed out from the bottom to the top like a fountain, burning the cyan needles suspended around Don Quixote, every time it burns, the color of the bone marrow is clear, and it burns to the end, it actually gives people a feeling like agar, obviously after being burned here, the impurities in the bone marrow have been completely removed, and the rest is the final step, not the most consumed step of the magic array, but it is indeed the most complicated step, in fact, most of the delicate hair-like magic arrays in the entire underground secret room are for this step。

After all, DNA recombination has involved the 'magic eternalism', a super problem in this spell, it is conceivable, regardless of whether the DNA of the recombinant stem cells is arranged correctly, just want to reconstruct a perfect cell outer wall to store this pure DNA, for the basic elements of ** Control is already so complex that human power can't reach, let alone reorganize and structure at the same time, at this time, the role of the magic array is reflected, it is like a computer, or a computer, the real cell of the architecture is like a complex number, the human brain can not meet this requirement, but through the computer and the computer can easily complete this step.

Although Don Quixote himself can't move, his psionic energy can see and listen to all directions, and he is curious about the changes that occur in these green needles and peeps at them with his psionic energy, and as a result, Don Quixote felt his head buzz, as if a huge hammer smashed his head, and the whole person was a little dizzy.

Obviously, the complexity of the changes in the green needle has far exceeded the limit of the soul of a mage in the field of Don Quixote, in fact, even the Dharma God is difficult to accept such a large amount of information, and the only people in the world who can read it completely without any sequelae are the seven true gods, Buddha and Char Donghai.

"Puff~" The consequences of Don Quixote's curiosity naturally did not escape the gaze of Apollo Ding on the side, so she smiled, half of it was really funny, and the other half was just adding points to her acting skills, as a legal idiot, she must have done this kind of thing in theory, so when someone made the same mistake in front of her, and became more and more familiar with Don Quixote, it was natural to have a sense of schadenfreude, and this laugh would also ** Diro Beauvoir's past made Don Quixote even more convinced that everything about this woman was real.

With the help of the magic array, because it is the same surname as the ancestor, Don Quixote's hematopoietic stem cells are very fortunate to be purified to the embryonic stem cells of the ancestor level, and the DNA in the embryonic stem cells has been completely replaced with the DNA of his ancestors, that is, 100% pure blood, of course, the bloodline of the Don Quixote family is the will of **,** The will of the caste needs to be separated to take effect in the true sense, so even if Don Quixote cloned a bunch of progenitor himself, there would not be a bunch of ** wills, and the rest of the people would only be ordinary pure-blooded people.

After the atavistic stem cells are fed by the cell fluid of the corpse that is left over from the previous cells, they are re-injected back into the bone marrow along the previous wound after differentiating to a certain number, and naturally, this step is what Don Quixote is most concerned about, what kind of impact will this so-called stem cells have on the body after they re-enter the body.

There was a cool itching sensation in the bone marrow, and with the help of the magic circle, Don Quixote had been transferred to the ground not far beyond the lava pool, because the temperature here was very high, so there was no need to worry about the cold.

Don Quixote, who was lying on the ground, closed his eyes slightly, and the slight tremor on the ground told him that the necromantic puppy and Diro Beauva were coming towards him, but he did not have the energy to greet her, because at the moment he was feeling the earth-shaking changes that were taking place in his body, and he was afraid of missing the slightest thing.

When the embryonic stem cells of the first ancestor level are injected into the body, it is as if the instinct in the cell is activated, the survival of the fittest, obviously, compared to Don Quixote's own cells, even if it is strengthened, but in fact, the innermost DNA is not comparable to the DNA of the first generation of ancestors.

After the progenitor-level embryonic stem cells are injected into the body, it begins to instinctively devour Don Quixote's original cells and the energy contained in the cells, and then uses them as nourishment to fill the engulfed part of itself, and this process will not stop until the upper limit of embryonic stem cells**.

The good thing is that there really is nothing wrong with this spell, and everything is just like Diro Beauva said, Don Quixote will have the same talent as his ancestor after several transformations.

As for the bad side, if you have to say it, it is an ethical problem, it is conceivable that when Don Quixote's bloodline is completely purified and transformed, then both the appearance and the inner DNA will become exactly the same as his ancestor, which also involves a question, whether the transformed Don Quixote is Don Quixote, or the soul is Don Quixote, but the body is the body of his ancestor.

However, for Don Quixote, the fact that he dared to do so meant that he had already figured out the problem, and in fact, it was exactly the same as a very old philosophical question on earth, and that philosophical question was the 'ship of Theseus'!

A ship that can sail at sea for hundreds of years, thanks to constant repairs and replacement parts, as soon as a plank rots, it will be replaced, and the replaced objects are only functionally the same, but they cannot be exactly the same, and so on, until all the functional parts are not the original ones, and the question arises, is the final ship the original Theseus ship, or a completely different ship? If a new ship were to be built from the old parts taken from the original part of the Ship of Theseus, which of the two ships would be the real Ship of Theseus?

Don Quixote doesn't know what others think, but the answer he believes is that even if all the parts are replaced, the ship of Theseus will still be the ship of Theseus, because it is related to one problem, that is, the space-time continuity of the fourth dimension.

The reason why you are you, it is from yours to the present, you have always been you, even if you clone an identical Don Quixote, that person can only be a stranger with the same DNA as Don Quixote, to judge whether a person is a person, in addition to DNA, what is more important is the continuous surname of time and space, Don Quixote's body is transformed from himself little by little, he has a continuous surname with the past body, just like a ship of Theseus that is constantly replacing parts, then, in Don Quixote's cognition, he is still him, nothing has changed, and there is no way to talk about the so-called ethical issues。

If that's not intelligible enough, use the example of people close to Don Quixote, like Char Jean.

In fact, when she was forcibly purified by the Ancestral Soul, according to those who disagree with this view, her body is no longer Char Jean's body, but according to Don Quixote's view, she is still her, and she is still his wife, because it is this time and space continuous surname.

Of course, philosophical questions are the opinions of the benevolent and the wise, as long as Don Quixote himself can figure it out. (To be continued.) )
