Chapter 196: Death is the duty of every human being
Life Extension Experiments
What is the purpose of this experiment, you can know as soon as you hear it, is to make a person live a few more years.
It could be 10 years, it could be 20 years, but it doesn't seem to be so attractive compared to [Wild Demon Manipulation] anyway.
Because if humans can really control wild demons, then there is hope that the gates of hell will be closed. This is the greatest and most urgent goal of mankind today.
However, this experiment became a little frightening because of the presence of Augustine the Great.
Who knows where the limits of this experiment are?
No one dares to predict what direction the scientific and technological growth of human beings will take, and if the life extension experiment is improved for several decades, it may be possible to make people live to be 150 years old, or even 200 years old.
And in such a long time, there will definitely be some unimaginable breakthroughs in science and technology, and now there are turbo prosthetics, so what if a machine that can replace internal organs is really developed in a few decades?
What if we could transplant fresh organs into the aging body?
What about transferring a person's brain directly into a young and healthy body?
Will anyone really be able to get eternal life?
And what would happen if an being at the top of human power, a terrible emperor who had been in control of the empire for sixty years, had the bargaining chips of eternal life in his hands?
No one dared to think about it, because at that time, what the immortal emperor wanted to happen, the world would happen. It doesn't matter whether the gates of hell are closed or not, even the demon will become a force in his hands to restrain other forces, he will slowly control all the realms of this world, time will make him the master of everything, he will become a true god.
These things sound like a plot out of a myth and legend, but if the [Life Continuation Experiment] is really successful, then everything that can be appealed can really happen.
Even, after Augustine the Great was re-elected to the throne, it was almost certain to happen.
"Death is a duty that human beings must fulfill, and Professor Darwin must have realized this a long time ago, so he gave up the life extension experiment and devoted all his energy to [Wild Demon Manipulation], and we can't let Augustine's old guy succeed him, let alone let him restart the life extension experiment." Moriarty said.
That's when it happened
"I'm sorry I need to bother." Watson put down the newspaper in his hand: "I came relatively late, and I don't know much about the control experiment of wild demons, as far as I know, isn't that experiment successful, and the experimental device itself has not been destroyed, so it is so well placed. Why are you so afraid of Augustine the Great's public opinion offensive?
He dared to say that it was fake, and it would be enough to prove that it was true. ”
Hearing Watson's question, Moriarty was silent for a moment, then replied, "Theoretically, it can be like this, but the question is. We don't have a way to prove it for the time being. ”
"Why?"
"Because there's not enough time." Erin continued, "To control a wild demon, you need to make a human's brainwaves close to the demon's brainwaves. ”
"Brain waves?"
"It's [Soul Line], I secretly gave him a name that is easier to understand." Erin explained: "This process requires a long period of training, and Dean Darwin is the founder of this theory, and he also has a great talent for brain power and contract, and even so, it took him about two years to finally dare to show his results to the world."
And now there are only two months left until the Imperial Inheritance Ceremony.
Where are we going to find someone with incomparably strong brainpower, sufficient mental power, and superior contractual ability, who can show the results of this experiment in two months? ”
Erin spoke, and as she said the last paragraph, she consciously or unconsciously accentuated the syllables of the words.
Therefore, the three people in the room all looked at Sherlock.
“.” Sherlock looked at the three guys who were staring at him: "Well, I take the liberty of asking, the person you are talking about, can't it be me?" ”
"Although I don't want to admit it, but. You're probably the best fit I can imagine. "Moriarty tilted his head slightly, as if he was still a little unwilling to admit defeat, probably trying to express it.' If I hadn't been incapable of contracting, I would have been on my own. ’
Sherlock hesitated, "Well, it looks like I'm the best fit. But I'm not so sure, Professor Darwin took two years to do what I did, and I took two months. It should be a bit of a struggle. ”
"It's really rare to hear you say the word 'hard'." Moriarty said lightly.
In fact, he clearly knew that the average person's evaluation of this matter should be 'absolutely impossible', but in Sherlock's mouth, it was just 'difficult'.
It's really hard to imagine what a terrible opponent this guy would be if he became his own enemy in the future.
"But you are the most suitable person, and if you can't do it, then maybe this is the fate of the whole world." Moriarty, who never believed in fate, finally said such a sentence, which shows that in his heart, Augustine the Great is an unshakable existence.
"And it's not just for the work of Professor Darwin, or for Dr. Franklin's translocation, or for the future of humanity as a whole." Erin looked at Sherlock and said softly, "Actually, just because of the dead souls of the London airship crash, we should also work hard.
After all, murderers must always be punished, whether it is by law or something else, and it would be ridiculous for a murderer to sit on a high seat and be admired by all the people. ”
"Isn't it common sense that everyone who is on top of it has to have some blood on their hands." Sherlock smiled, and even glanced at Moriarty without any scruples.
"Of course." Erin nodded and admitted, "But this case involves you. Great detective, Mr. Holmes, can you really watch the mastermind of your case and spend the rest of your life in no end in sight, enjoying the worship of all the citizens of the Empire? Can you rest assured? ”
Sherlock turned to look at Erin, "You're just right for me?" ”
"I'm sorry, dear, but I just ate you to death." As she said this, Erin's gaze slowly crossed Sherlock's face, as if she was afraid of missing the slightest expression of his.
"Okay." Sherlock didn't have any expression, he just nodded naturally: "This old guy, it really doesn't look very pleasing to the eye"
