A moment later, Wang Ping'an and Angri were connected in tandem again and connected to the eighteen-meter-high humanoid combat boat.

This time the situation was better than before, except for the noise "in the ears", there was only slight dizziness.

And this noise is gradually changing.

Wang Ping'an remembered that he was bored during the voyage and experienced a sleep aid product based on background sound waves in the sea.

Yes, he felt like he was in the depths of the ocean right now.

There was a regular echo nearby, probably a giant whale cruising nearby. But Wang Ping'an's reason told him that it was a cruiser sailing in the same direction next to the mothership.

- Wait a minute, I'm completely used to the information coming back from the radar?

Wang Ping'an opened his eyes and looked to the side - to be precise, he looked to the side through the optical equipment of the humanoid body, looked in the direction from which the "sound" came from, and sure enough, he caught the light coming from the cruiser.

At the moment when the visual and radar intelligence corresponded, Wang Ping'an had a sense of transparency that everything was integrated, as if the problem that had plagued him for a long time was solved in an instant, and his mind that had been blocked for a long time suddenly opened.

The only problem with this transparency is that he doesn't know what he's transparent about.

Maybe this is like in martial arts, opening up the second pulse of Ren Du?

It seems that at the moment when the radar intelligence and the visual intelligence are matched, Wang Ping'an's brain officially accepts that he still has the receptor of radar - but in the form of sound.

After all, there is no sound in the universe.

Wang Ping'an tried to turn his mind to other voices "in his ears".

As a top astronaut in the Space Force, he naturally and completely learned the theoretical knowledge related to radar, which allowed him to quickly distinguish the nature of the chaotic echoes "in the ear".

Because at this time, the White Bess was moving forward in a straight line perpendicular to the ecliptic plane of the asteroid belt, and the surrounding 50,000 kilometers were empty, and there were almost no devices that could generate echoes, so Wang Ping'an's "ears" were actually quite clean.

As for the kind of voice that seemed to be chattering, Wang Ping'an boldly speculated that this was cosmic background radiation.

It's funny, my brain thinks of the cosmic background radiation as an inexplicable babbling whisper, as if several people in gray robes are reciting indescribable poems.

- Damn, did I usually watch too many Lovecraftian horror stories during the flight, or was the cosmic background radiation really the whispers of the outer gods?

Wang Ping'an, a staunch materialist, currently believes that his brain is influenced by too many Lovecraftian stories, as if he was influenced by Zhang Li's theory and occasionally hears Xiao Fang's voice.

However, he will also take the initiative to ask the master who studies the cosmic background radiation, and if he really finds out what psalms the cosmic background radiation is reciting, he will find out the meaning of these psalms and find out who is singing in the psalms. This is exactly what the materialist model does.

Of course, if you leave this state, you can immediately go to verify: Angri's education is completely different from Wang Ping'an's, and she studied hard before joining the Space Force, and she didn't have time to read so many miscellaneous books, and after joining the Space Force, she was basically with Wang Ping'an, and Wang Ping'an knew that she definitely hadn't read Lovecraft's works.

Then the cosmic background radiation she hears must have been presented in a very different way.

Wang Ping'an silently kept the matter of asking Angri in mind, and then turned his attention to others: By the way, what should I do?

He thought about it for a moment—no, it was to let the main computer of the combat boat check the communication logs.

- I've naturally turned looking at my communications into a "recall", indicating that my brain is more and more aware of this organism as its own?

In the communication log, there is Tu Shengli's instructions: "If you have successfully controlled the airframe, wave your hand at the mothership's extravehicular optics." ”

Wang Ping'an waved his hand lightly.

The new order came immediately: "Try to turn around, pay attention and speed, and try not to damage the body." ”

Wang Ping'an nodded—yes, he was completely unaware of the fact that the "head" of the body's main optical equipment was lightly tapped.

Then he slowly spun in circles, wrapping the soft cable behind the body around his body for a full circle.

There was no feeling of pain, and this time there should be no strain on yourself.

So Wang Ping'an took it upon himself and reversed it as it was, so that the ground cable that was originally wrapped around his body was stretched out again.

At this time, a new message came from Tu Shengli: "Wang Ping'an, have you realized that you are not a giant robot?" ”

Wang Ping'an's first reaction when he saw the information was that Tu Shengli was joking, and then he suddenly realized that he had just taken the humanoid combat boat for granted as his normal posture!

The moment he found it, a creepy feeling surged from the bottom of his heart, which directly led to a decrease in synchronization, and the next moment he returned to the laboratory, and sat up violently - trying to sit up, the fixed strap strangled his shoulder!

Tu Shengli rushed up and grabbed Wang Ping'an's shoulder: "Are you okay?" ”

Several female graduate students surrounded Angli, who was also awake.

Wang Ping'an: "I'm ...... I just really thought of myself as the iron lump out there. ”

Tu Shengli: "I know, we observed a lot of small movements on the test machine, as if it were a real human. For example, when you answer me, the body will nod your head, and when you turn around, the body will subconsciously support your chest. ”

Wang Ping'an: "This is Angli's habitual action, it must be." ”

Angli: "I...... I don't have the habit of supporting my breasts? ”

The female graduate student next to her: "You have, and you will cross your arms like this to make your breasts stand out." ”

Angeli: "This ...... Maybe it's too heavy, so it's a habit gradually. ”

Tu Shengli let go of Wang Ping'an's shoulders and paced excitedly in the laboratory: "We have far exceeded the progress of Maga, and Maga has no record that this brain-computer interface will confuse the machine and himself, no!"

"However, this flaw also dooms the Ethics Committee to make it impossible for the Ethics Committee to put this organism into combat, even if it has a revolutionary ......"

When Tu Shengli was talking at length, Wang Ping'an asked Angli on the bed next to him: "You just ...... In that state, the background radiation of the universe seems to you – what does it sound like to you? ”

Tu Shengli stopped and looked at Wang Ping'an suspiciously: "Background radiation? ”

Wang Ping'an nodded: "Yes, after all, the radar is connected, and the environment we are in now is not a single inch of grass within a radius of more than 100,000 kilometers, and there is not too much clutter in theory, so what we heard just now is like noise, which can only be cosmic background radiation."

"I heard the prayers of the outer gods babbling."

Tu Shengli's brows twisted into twists: "Outer gods? You're an atheist, aren't you? Don't do it, we need your cooperation now, don't let the psychology department ban you from participating in the experiment because you have a problem with your mind! ”

Wang Ping'an: "Of course I'm an atheist, I guess I saw some of Lovecraft's works during the voyage, and then it became like this. Angrelli hadn't seen Lovecraft, and she shouldn't have behaved differently on her side. ”

Angli: "I'm a violin soloist here. I think it may be because when I was a child, I had to give up my beloved violin in order to be admitted to the Space Force. ”

Wang Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief: "What you heard is a violin, you can." If you're hearing a psalm of fandom, then we're ...... Forget it, it's not anyway, don't mention it. ”

Tu Shengli: "So you can even distinguish the cosmic background radiation – and even when the radar system has filtered it through?" ”

Wang Ping'an: "Maybe." But I'm not an expert in brain science, so I don't count. ”

Tu Shengli, an authoritative expert in the field of brain-computer interface and a high-level student in brain science, touched his chin and replied regretfully: "If you can continue, what a great progress it will bring to the field of brain-computer interface."

"It's a pity that the side effects of continuing to connect are too great, and I'm 100% sure that your connection will cause you serious psychological problems."

Wang Ping'an: "Actually...... I wondered, is the problem that they made the combat boat human? They made the combat boat humanoid, in the name of lightening the burden on the operator, but ...... There's an uncanny valley effect in psychology, you know? ”

Tu Shengli nodded.

Wang Ping'an said his guess: "Could it be that it is precisely because this damn combat boat is too human-like that it has caused a huge burden?" Maybe it wouldn't be so much of a reaction if it was directly connected to an ordinary combat boat? ”

Tu Shengli frowned: "You don't want to turn three times faster?" ”

Wang Ping'an: "You don't want to...... In fact, I still think that if I can be faster, I will be faster after all, and if I can't do it, I can save my life if I can't be fast in battle. But you see, there's so much more about this humanoid body, and if it's really the culprit behind the 500 pairs of testers at Crazy Marga, then it's okay not to have that little bit of performance.

"And as far as I have just come into contact with, I pack a ticket, this brain-computer interface system is used in ordinary combat boats, and it can also greatly improve the performance of combat boats."

Tu Shengli thought for a few seconds, nodded and said, "Makes sense." Anyway, we have mastered the principle of this set of brain-computer interfaces, and the engineering drawings have long been scanned, so there is no big problem in printing a set on site. ”

Angli: "So we're going to try to use this technology to operate our 'old buddy'?" ”

Tu Shengli shook his head: "No, you first have to go to the psychology department for diagnosis and treatment. You've just thought of yourself as an eighteen-meter-tall steel beast, and who knows what the ripple effects will be. The ship's psychology department ......"

Tu Shengli picked up his tablet and scratched it, shook his head and said, "Okay, let your instructor deal with it first, and then send you to a detailed examination when we return to a safe place." ”

Wang Ping'an suddenly had an idea, so he asked: "Then can I take the opportunity to talk to the super quantum computer with autonomous consciousness in the psychology center?" ”

"You just go and talk. But that's after we return to base – or even directly back to Earth with loot. ”
