MTL - Dangerous Survival in the Apocalypse-Chapter 244 244
When Shen Shian and the others returned to the brewery farm, it was about two o'clock in the afternoon. Xiong Manshan and Liu Fangzhou, who heard the sound of the helicopter engine, ran to the stop bird flat at the fastest speed and waved vigorously in mid-air.
The helicopter stopped, and the two rushed up, "Boss Xunge Laoqu, why did you come back so long? If you didn’t call Young Master Gu, he said that everything is fine with you, and we are all ready to touch Qingyang. I'm looking for someone"
"Are all the people on the Yunchuan base moved? The negotiation process didn't go well. What does the Qingyang Sect **** look like? Isn't it mysterious or dignified? Didn't Brother Jin come back with you?"
Shen Shian answered one by one and briefly explained the situation, asking "When will you come back to the mountain city?"
"We came back a long time ago, and we didn't spend a few days in the mountain city in total." Xiong Manshan and Liu Fangzhou left and right, and affectionately sandwiched Shen Shian and said as they walked, "Things are going smoothly. When Chuan'er and I talked about vaccines and evolution potions, the girl Ding Yan quickly thought about it and agreed to move. She also helped us convince other people, a total of more than 80,000 survivors, half a month ago. He has already successfully arrived in the capital, and Mr. Gu made overall arrangements behind it. There is absolutely no problem."
Liu Fangzhou said, "Captain, Ding Yan asked me privately, what are the requirements for joining Sharp Blade, and whether she can add it? I didn't answer directly. I just said that you have to decide this matter."
Shen Shian nodded, "I'll consider it. Tao Yuan, are they back?"
"Nope."
Shen Shian paused and stopped to look at the two of them "Tao Yuan Luo Wei, and Chen Nan Xinhe, none of them came back."
Tao Yuan and the four left on the same day as them, which means that they have been away for forty-three days so far. Under normal circumstances, they will go back to Liuxiang City in the south of Province J from here. It is not necessary at all. Such a long time.
Xiong Manshan shook his head, "We are also worried." The two captains left with Young Master Gu, and somehow they still have a satellite phone to contact them, but Chen Nan and the four of them really had no news.
Shen Shian turned his head to look at Shen Xun. Needless to say, Shen Xun had quickly finished four tracking curses, and said after a moment, "Don't worry, everyone is still alive."
Shen Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief. Since everyone is fine, it is probably delayed by something. The time limit he gave Tao Yuan Luowei was two months, and now there were 17 days left, and he would definitely be able to come back.
"Xu Getang praised them all at home?"
"Yes, all there, boss, what do you want to say?"
"Let everyone gather in the laboratory on the second floor of the scientific research building," Shen Shian glanced at Qu Shuo, who silently followed behind, "We have important issues to discuss."
The comprehensive laboratory on the second floor of the scientific research building is spacious and open. In addition to conducting experiments and research, it is also a place where people hold collective meetings on scientific research related matters.
Xiong Manshan was fast, and a gust of wind seemed to notify everyone. The team members who were still in the brewery, including Tongtong, soon gathered and sat in a circle around the conference table.
Shen Shian looked at Qu Shuo, "Tell me what you told me before, and tell everyone again."
Qu Shuo took a deep breath and said, "I think Lu Xiuyuan is probably still alive."
After a moment of silence
"what"
"How could it be possible that we even saw his crystal nucleus with our own eyes"
"What does it mean to be alive"
"Do not make jokes"
"Laoqu, are you irritated?"
""
It was like pouring a scoop of cold water into the boiling oil, Qu Shuo's words immediately made the team members blow up the pot.
Shen Shian raised his hand and pressed it down, signalling everyone to calm down first, and at the same time calming down his fluctuating emotions a bit since he heard the news, and then said to Qu Shuo "from the beginning, the whole thing is detailed and complete. Tell it again."
Qu Shuo sorted out the language a bit, and said slowly, "It starts when I absorbed Lu Xiuyuan's crystal nucleus. Since absorbing his crystal nucleus, I found that I can always hear his voice."
Liu Fangzhou opened his mouth anxiously as if he wanted to ask something, but Qiang Zi held it back and raised his ears to listen to Qu Shuo continue to speak.
"In the beginning, there were only one sentence or two, or a few fragments of words, which suddenly rang in my ears without warning. Sometimes I can hear it once or twice a day, and sometimes I can hear it once in two or three days. Time and frequency are not fixed, I have heard it during the day and at night."
"Later the frequency gradually increased, and the content gradually increased, and I could even have a conversation with me, as if he was really still by my side, but everyone couldn’t see it. At the beginning, I didn’t I didn’t care, because since he died, I often dreamed of him, and often saw his shadow in various places, or heard him call my name, so I thought the sound that appeared this time was also my hallucination. As long as I can hear his voice, I don't care even if it is an illusion."
"I really noticed something wrong after Mr. Jin Guan Cheng Jin appeared."
Tang Song immediately asked "how to say"
"Because his voice tells me that Mr. Jin is a sword idiot."
"That's right," Liu Fangzhou didn't understand. "Brother Jin is indeed a sword idiot. Is there something wrong with this sentence? Why can you find something wrong with this sentence?"
"Because Qu Shuo doesn't know Jinguan City at all."
Lin Ruan quickly grasped the point. "Qu Shuo joined the edge after the cold wave began, and Jinguancheng had left the capital base long before the cold wave came. The last time Jinguancheng came to the brewery should be the first time that Qu Shuo talked to the brewery. He just met."
If Lu Xiuyuan’s voice was just Qu Shuo’s illusion, how could the illusion know things that even Qu Shuo didn’t know?
"That's right."
Qu Shuo's two hands on the table clenched tightly, but still couldn't help but tremble slightly under the violent mood swings. "From that day on, I deliberately asked about that voice. I didn't know it, but Lu Xiuyuan might know it. He answered all things, such as his family situation, his previous school experience, and some things that happened to him after the end of the world."
Qu Shuo looked at everyone, with excitement that could not be concealed in his eyes, as well as trying to suppress the hope that he was afraid of failing but could not be controlled at all. "There is no way to explain this situation with hallucinations, unless I am crazy, unless it is me His brain made up all kinds of answers that I didn’t know at all, otherwise his voice couldn’t be an illusion, right? Lu Xiuyuan is actually alive, right"
The conference table was quiet, everyone was tense, and the needles could be heard.
Tang Song’s eyes were horrifyingly bright, and he didn’t know when he turned to Qu Shuo’s position, his back was straight. "So you mean that Lu Xiuyuan’s crystal nucleus preserves his consciousness, and you are absorbing it. In the process of the crystal nucleus, it was sucked into his brain along with his consciousness."
Qu Shuo nodded vigorously, "I thought about it for a long time. This is the most reasonable explanation I can come up with."
"Can he hear us now"
"Yes, in addition to being unable to control my body, he can feel what I see, hear, touch, and taste."
"If Lu Xiuyuan's consciousness is still alive," Xu Ge's heart beat fast, and a layer of sweat was squeezed in his palm. He wanted to believe, but he couldn't believe it. "Then he should know that he is not an illusion of you. Is it yours? Before he felt something was wrong, did he never tell you that he is real?"
Qu Shuo’s face was full of annoyance and regret. "It is precisely because he can only feel what I can feel and know what I am thinking, so I was inadvertently affected by my thoughts. I preconceived that he was an illusion. , He also thinks that he is just my fantasy."
Lin Ruan also wanted to believe that Lu Xiuyuan was actually alive, but his status as a researcher forced him to be more rigorous. "In this way, he now thinks that he is not an illusion, and it is likely that he is only affected by your thoughts. The channels through which people obtain information are complex and diverse. Many times you don’t remember where you got the information, but you know it subconsciously. The questions you ask him are all about Lu Xiuyuan’s personal information. Based on the past between the two of you and your attention to him, it may not be necessarily where you learned it accidentally."
Xiong Manshan is too anxious. "Then let's ask more questions. Let's take turns. If everyone asks, they will only ask if they happen between themselves and Brother Lu. What other people will never know is an illusion. If it's just an illusion, then sure. There’s no way to answer them all."
"Don't be so troublesome."
Shen Shi'an, who had been silent for a long time, said, "If the superpower crystal nucleus can really preserve the owner's consciousness, and it will be absorbed along with the absorption of the crystal nucleus, then one person must be clear about this."
"Grass, Zhong Han" Xiong Manshan and Liu Fangzhou called out the name in unison.
If this hypothesis is true, based on the number of crystal nuclei that Zhong Han has absorbed, the consciousness in his mind is estimated to be 800 if there are not one thousand. And the owners of those crystal nuclei are almost all killed by him, and the deaths are particularly miserable. , If the consciousness is resurrected, then I would definitely want to deprive him alive, and hold a criticism meeting in his mind 24 hours a day. No matter how resentful and swearing, he won’t be peaceful for a moment.
Xiong Manshan jumped three feet high, "I'll go and bring the grandson here."
Before he could finish his words, the man had returned with Zhong Han, and he pushed him onto the chair, pressing both sides of the iron palms like a fan, and his shoulder bones creaked.
The crowd quickly gathered around, and Shen Shian took out a dagger from the space, raised the knife in his hand and dropped it, cutting off a finger of Zhong Han. Coldly said, "Next ask your question, tell a lie, I will cut off a piece of meat from you, do you understand?"
Liu Fangzhou said, "Give it to me, I will be responsible for cutting"
Zhong Han's face was distorted with pain, and he couldn't move at all while being held down by Xiong Manshan, and a layer of cold sweat soon oozes from his forehead. Gritting his teeth and looking around, his eyes trembled when they fell on Liu Fangzhou, and then he said to Shen Shi'an, "You ask."
Shen Shian looked at Tongtong, "Are you ready?"
Tongtong nodded "Yeah"
Then he asked, "Does the superpower’s crystal core preserve the consciousness of the superpower during his lifetime?"
"Yes."
Xu Ge and others were so excited that they clenched their fists and held their breath.
"Absorb the nucleus, will it be absorbed together with the consciousness in the nucleus"
"meeting."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Liu Fangzhou jumped up with a dagger, eyes red with tears, "Brother Lu is not dead, Brother Lu is still alive, and his consciousness is really alive."
Qu Shuo let out a sigh of relief, shaking his whole body, and immediately wet his eyes.
Everyone was surging and excited, and they couldn't wait to communicate with Lu Xiuyuan in his mind. Tang Song said, "Don't worry, let's clarify everything related to the crystal nucleus first."
He looked at Shen Shian, "Captain, can you let me come"
Shen Shian nodded and walked to the side to give up his position. The palm suddenly tightened, and it was Shen Xun who held his hand.
With his eyes facing each other, the violent ups and downs in his chest, all kinds of emotions that did not know where to land gradually calmed down, smiled, and shook his backhand back.
"How many people's consciousness have you absorbed in total" Tang Song asked Zhong Han.
"A lot, the specific numbers are unclear."
"Are those consciousnesses still in your head now?"
Zhong Han shook his head.
"When did it disappear"
The answer was a little slower this time, and Liu Fangzhou was immediately cut in the leg by Liu Fangzhou, "Quickly say or I will cut you off, Brother Tao Yuan is not here now, but no one will help you grow it, let me tell you."
Zhong Han took a breath of pain, "After you take away the crystal core."
"Grass" Liu Fangzhou suddenly realized, "No wonder this grandson's complexion has improved with naked eyes after the crystal core was removed." He thought it was because the food was so good, it turned out that the root was here.
After saying this, Liu Fangzhou remembered one more thing, "Do you remember when we first met Huahua, didn’t we be besieged by a group of people and wanted to kill us to take the crystal core? The leader is called Wang Wu. After being caught and **** by us, I suddenly went mad. The ghost cried and cried out what you deserved you deserve to die. The weak and the strong eat, I don’t have to blame anyone. The crystal nucleus is in your mind as good as giving it to me. At that time, he thought he knew he was fast. I'm dead and can't bear to lose my heart, now I think about it again, shit, if there is a consciousness of a supernatural being in the crystal core, then those words are not shouting at us, but at the victims in his mind."
The faces of the people were different, and they were terrified of thinking.
"So what is the principle of this thing?" Xiong Manshan scratched his head, only feeling in the clouds. "Did all of us have a copy of our consciousness from the moment we evolved the abilities? nuclear"
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as copying." Tang Song thought for a while, then asked Zhong Han, "The crystal nuclei you absorb are all taken out of the dead person's mind, right? If the supernatural person is alive, if the supernatural person is still alive When you take out the crystal nucleus, will there be the consciousness of the supernatural being in the crystal nucleus"
Zhong Han didn't speak.
Liu Fangzhou raised his knife, "Mute, please answer quickly"
Tang Song stared at Zhong Han’s face for a moment and looked carefully, and suddenly "You don’t know. That’s why you were so calm when the captain first caught you back. It seemed that you were not afraid of death at all, and even made provocations repeatedly until Xinjiang took it out. Only after the crystal nucleus did you really start to get anxious, and repeatedly asked the whereabouts of the crystal nucleus."
The brain is running fast, his eyes are getting brighter, and his speech rate is getting faster and faster. "Because you are not afraid of death. You know that if we kill you directly, your consciousness will be transferred to the crystal nucleus, and then no matter who it is. After absorbing the crystal nucleus, you have a chance to regain a new life; but if the crystal nucleus taken out by Xinjiang does not preserve your consciousness, then death will be the real end for you."
"Fuck," Liu Fangzhou reacted afterwards. "In this way, the consciousness of the supernatural being will automatically be stored in the crystal nucleus after death. After being absorbed, it will be resurrected, and then die and live again. Then, wouldn't it be equivalent? Yu Yongsheng"
"In theory, this is the case, but in practice it is estimated to be somewhat difficult. Take Qu Shuo and Lu Xiuyuan’s conditions at this time as an example. If every death is a condition that triggers consciousness to be stored in the crystal nucleus, then if Qu Shuo and Lu Xiuyuan Now that Shuo is dead, the consciousness of both he and Lu Xiuyuan will be stored in the nucleus. If it is absorbed by others, the consciousness in the nucleus will only increase. How can you guarantee yourself in this case? The consciousness of the people always dominates.”
Xu Ge said, "Even if you only die once, there is no way to guarantee that your consciousness dominates. Qu Shuo didn't mean that although Lu Xiuyuan can perceive everything he perceives, he can't control his body? Does Zhong Han's mind have a hundred consciousness? Thousands, and also not controlled by any of them, which means that even if we really kill Zhong Han and someone really absorbs his crystal nucleus, he can only live in that person’s brain, making noisy all day at most. It's nothing more than disturbing the other party's normal life."
For this kind of living method, dare to speak out and provocatively want everyone to kill him. It’s a bit unreasonable.
"This is also something I can't figure out," Tang Songmulu meditated. "Unless he is too confident, otherwise the only explanation is that he must have something to rely on. After the crystal nucleus is absorbed, his own consciousness can defeat the absorber. The original consciousness seizes control of the body."
But what will this dependence be?
"Spiritual crystal nucleus." Shen Shian said suddenly.
Back in the mountain city, the dark circles once said that Zhong Han was only interested in the mental nucleus and had absorbed a lot. At that time, they all thought it was because Zhong Han's other abilities had already absorbed enough, so the mouth Pick, only absorb the rarest mental abilities.
However, he did not use any mental powers during the battle with Shen Shi'an. Shen Shi'an did feel a little strange at the time, but did not think deeply. Looking at it at this time, I am afraid that Zhong Han has made plans for rebirth after death. , So the absorbed psychic system crystal nuclei are all used to strengthen the mental power to enhance self-consciousness.
Liu Fangzhou put the knife in his crotch, "Quickly tell me?"
Zhong Han's lips trembled "Yes."
Xiong Manshan slapped him on top of his head and buzzed his brain, "You are so sinister and vicious" to live is not enough to harm people, and if you die, you want to hurt people again.
Liu Fangzhou was startled in a cold sweat. "Fuck, it's dangerous. If we weren't interested in his crystal core, wouldn't we really have to be taken away by him"
When the time comes, wearing the same skin, who would have thought that there has been a change under the skin, and if there is a mental arithmetic or unintentional, it will be wiped out if it fails.
The more I thought about it, the more I was afraid, the more I thought about it, the more angry, and he cut Zhong Han twice.
Tang Song's brows furrowed, obviously thinking about something because of something.
He stood up and walked a few steps back and forth, and suddenly said, "I want to absorb Zhong Han's crystal nucleus."
"No" Lin Ruan vetoed it.
"Brother Tang, you are crazy" Liu Fangzhou was shocked.
Shen Shian asked "why"
"I want to know whether there is Zhong Han's consciousness in the crystal nucleus that Xinjiang took out. We really know too little about the crystal nucleus. I have always thought that the crystal nucleus is a polymer of human DNA, but now it looks like this The guess is likely to be wrong, at least not entirely correct, and the ability of the person with the ability to realize whether it is a reproduction during birth or a transfer after death is directly related to the essence of the existence of the crystal nucleus and our understanding of the crystal nucleus. And I can only absorb it by myself. The physical body will be stored in the crystal nucleus. What are the characteristics of the consciousness, and what is the difference from the consciousness of a normal living person, so as to obtain first-hand data."
Xiong Manshan said, "I rely on, you really don't want to die for scientific research."
Lin Ruan still resolutely "I disagree"
Shen Shian also disagrees with "the risk is too great."
"No, the risk is not really big." Tang Song took off his glasses and calmly analyzed. "My idea is to let Xinjiang take out my own crystal nucleus first, and then I will absorb Zhong Han's crystal nucleus, so there are nothing more than two. There is one possibility. His crystal nucleus does not have his consciousness, so the consciousness of the rest of the victims is not a threat to me. If any adverse reaction occurs in the middle, Xinjiang can take out the crystal nucleus in time, and then I will take out my own abnormality. Can absorb it back;"
"The other way, Zhong Han has his consciousness in his crystal core, and he is trying to seize control of my body. In this case, the way to deal with it is the same as the first one, just let Xinjiang take out the crystal core again. Knowing that Zhong Han did make adequate preparations for his rebirth after death, but he missed a little bit after Xin Jiang removed his crystal core, and the voices of many victims in his mind disappeared, which shows that no matter what. Whether Zhong Han’s consciousness was backed up by the crystal nucleus when he was alive, all other absorbed consciousness was directly stored in his crystal nucleus instead of waiting for him to be transferred after death. So the crystal nucleus was taken away. Those consciousnesses were taken away. So as long as Xinjiang takes out the crystal nucleus from my brain, he can take out his consciousness together, completely clean and leaving no residue."
Liu Fangzhou and the others thought, hey, it seems reasonable.
Xu Ge said, "Even if someone really takes control of the body by him, as long as Xinjiang takes out the other party's crystal core, he will be able to root out his consciousness."
"Yes."
When Zhong Han was planning his immortal career, he never thought that there would be another Zhao Xinjiang in this world, who could dig out the crystal nucleus with his bare hands while he was alive.
Everyone went to see Zhong Han.
Zhong Hanmu had a face.
"Hahahahahahaha" Liu Fangzhou burst into laughter, "Stupid grandson"
Tang Song continued, "The only risk in this matter is that if consciousness is really replicated while alive, then there will be a backup in my own crystal nucleus taken out by Xinjiang, and I will absorb the crystal nucleus again. When I come back, I have two self-consciousnesses in my mind at the same time. But this situation may be troublesome for other people, but for me, I don’t want to know that scientific researchers feel that their brains are not enough all the time, and there can be one. Have the same wisdom and independent self-awareness to discuss with each other from other perspectives anytime and anywhere. This is simply the dream of all researchers."
Yu Guang saw Lin Ruan's serious and tense face, Tang Song's voice paused, the enthusiasm in his eyes was slightly reduced, and his hands were held against his lips and coughed twice. "Even if practice proves that having both consciousnesses at the same time is not as perfect as I imagined, it is possible for Xinjiang to take out the crystal nucleus, and by injecting the evolution potion, I will evolve a new ability."
Lin Ruan still wrinkled his eyebrows, but made a little concession. "Zhong Han's crystal nucleus is more than that one. Later, when he tested the evolution potion on him, he still took out seven or eight. Pick one of the crystal cores to absorb." Later, when taking the crystal core clock, John no longer has those messy mental abilities. Even if it is consciously backed up, the danger should be much smaller.
Tang Song's eyes brightened, but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head. "Those crystal nuclei were obtained too quickly, and the time in his mind was too short. In case of consciousness backup, it takes a certain time, and those crystal nuclei just failed because of insufficient time. The result obtained in this way is not accurate. In the end, he has to absorb his original crystal nucleus to determine it, but it takes twice as much effort."
Lin Ruan really didn't want to agree, but he knew Tang Song's character and attitude towards scientific research. Under the repeated assurances of the other party, he was finally relieved.
Tang Song immediately became excited, and squeezed the fingers of the temples back and forth, and immediately sat down and let Zhao Xinjiang take out his own crystal core.
The pale pink crystal core was shining and translucent, and was carefully held in his hand by Lin Ruan.
Shen Shian took out Zhong Han's black crystal core that was impervious to light from the space and gave it to Tang Song. Tang Song held the crystal core and looked at each other with Lin Ruan, and then began to absorb it under the nervous gaze of everyone.
The crystal nucleus, the size of an egg, shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and when the crystal nucleus was completely turned into fly ash, Tang Song's face suddenly turned white, and he let out a painful groan.
"Brother Caotang's ears are bleeding"
Lin Ruan shouted anxiously, "Quick Xinjiang, take out the crystal core."
"Wait a minute," Tang Song's forehead bounced with blue veins, gritted his teeth and grasped Lin Ruan's hand. "I'll be okay.
Suddenly, countless screams and curses appeared in his head like a storm, ghosts crying, wolf howling and magical sounds pierced his ears, so noisy that he could not hear his own voice, his temples jumped suddenly, just thinking that the whole brain would be like a watermelon falling from a high altitude in the next second The same completely exploded.
Tang Song took a deep breath, then exhaled deeply, trying to stabilize his mind and try to communicate with the consciousness that almost drowned him.
Shen Shian and the others couldn't hear the movement in his mind. They could only see layers of cold sweat oozing from his forehead. His expression was painful and his whole body was tense, and he gripped the phalanx of the chair arm with force until he turned blue and white.
Time passed, and Lin Ruan felt like a year. When he could no longer help Zhao Xinjiang to take out the crystal core forcibly, Tang Song finally nodded, "It's okay."
Zhao Xinjiang took out the crystal core, and he was as soft as a chair, and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat. Lin Ruan twisted his brows tightly, took a hot towel to wipe his sweat, Shen Shian handed over a bottle of mineral water mixed with Lingquan "How is it?"
With half a bottle of water under the water, Tang Song's face looked much better, and shook his head, "Zhong Han's consciousness is not in it, I'm sure."
Xiong Manshan breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, and then realized that this breath was a little inexplicable because he hadn’t figured out the difference between Zhong Han’s consciousness or not, anyway, no one planned to absorb his crystal nucleus regardless of consciousness. Is it to copy while alive or to transfer after death? Isn’t it the same?
Liu Fangzhou can see a little bit of the door, "Is there a lot of consciousness in the crystal core? It's all resentful. Brother Tang can't hold on in less than half an hour. So how did the grandson Zhong Han behave as usual? Does not show the slightest color"
Xu Ge "Is it also related to mental abilities. Didn't the captain say that he absorbed a lot of mental nuclei? Maybe there is a kind of abilities that shields other consciousness."
Liu Fangzhou touched his chin "It's possible." But after thinking about it, I felt wrong. "Then his group of doglegs, a total of one or two thousand people have absorbed at least ten crystal nuclei, and no one of them seems to have been wronged. The appearance of a ridiculous ghost struggling for his life can't everyone have mental abilities."
Tang Song slowed down, and his brain resumed functioning. He shook his head, "It's not the same. I sucked hundreds of consciousness into my brain at the same time, and they are gradually accumulating one by one, starting from the first one. After psychological preparation, and gradually improved adaptability, their performance will naturally be much more normal. Furthermore, their crystal nuclei are mainly obtained by urging survivors to stress, right? That is to say, the survivors only evolve, and the crystal nucleus is It’s taken out. The time in between is too short, and it is very likely that there is no time to prepare for consciousness transfer.
Liu Fangzhou’s eyes lit up. "It makes sense. When you said this, I remembered it. Other doglegs were probably added late, and they absorbed stress nuclei that were dug out before evolution. So there is indeed nothing unusual. After Zhong Han’s dark circles for a long time, his face was obviously as haggard and ugly as Zhong Han at the time. I thought his dark circles were caused by excessive indulgence. It turned out that he was asleep at all because he was cursed by his mind day and night. It’s not easy to sleep."
Xu Ge sighed, "So the cycle of heaven and retribution is unhappy. Those who have evolved abilities by killing people and taking nuclei, even if they can't detect abnormalities with the current technology, and cannot be sanctioned by law, they will still have to pay a price. "
Tang Song's expression moved, as if there was something in Xu Ge's words that inspired him, his eyes swept over the crowd and fixed on Qu Shuo, and suddenly he said, "Everyone, come with me."
Everyone stood up one after another, Xiong Manshan carried Zhong Han's collar and followed Tang Song to the nearby experimental area.
Tang Song plunged into the dazzling array of equipment, and after a while he dragged out an instrument and corresponding supporting devices from it, turned the display to a position facing everyone, and then gave Qu Shuo a sophisticated and complex structure. The metal helmet filled with electrode pads motioned him to sit down on the chair in front of the console.
Lin Ruan understood his intention and took the initiative to put on another helmet.
When Tang Song opened the instrument, his face was full of enthusiasm that would only be revealed every time a major discovery was made. "For a long time, one of the key reasons why we cannot distinguish between natural evolution and the evolution of taking others' crystal nucleus is that unless an autopsy is done, the existing No instrument can detect the power crystal nucleus in the brain, whether it is the size, volume or color of the crystal nucleus. But if the consciousness of the original person is preserved in the power crystal nucleus, and the absorption crystal nucleus will be absorbed together with the consciousness If yes, then maybe we can choose to detect another kind of brain waves."
He controlled the palm that was slightly shaking due to excitement and pressed the switch connected to Lin Ruan's helmet. The display lit up with an undulating waveform, similar to an electrocardiogram, but with smaller ripples and denser peaks. "What you are seeing is Lin Ruan's brain waves, which have fast fluctuations, small amplitudes, short intervals, and are generally stable and orderly. It is the most common brain wave pattern in adults when they are awake."
He took a deep breath. "Now, it's Qu Shuo's turn."
The picture on the display flashed and switched to another brainwave atlas.
The same interval is short and the frequency is fast, and the same is steady and regular. The only difference is that there are two brain waves this time.
Two radio waves that are not exactly the same, fluctuate up and down at a harmonious frequency, echo each other, are independent of each other, and are the same.
Qu Shuo's eyes were red instantly, and the brainwave that belonged to him suddenly fluctuated violently, stretched between the peak and valley, his throat choked, and he stretched out his hand to touch the "path" of the display screen.
Everyone's eyes were wavy, and all the emotions accumulated for a long time broke out immediately. Liu Fangzhou cried out with a cry, "Brother Lu, I miss you so much."
The brain waves belonging to Lu Xiuyuan jumped up and beat a few times, and Qu Shuo smiled, "He said he missed you too."
Tears could not be controlled at all, Liu Fangzhou rushed forward and hugged Qu Shuo hard, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry I left you alone at that time, thank you Brother Lu, thank you"
Xiong Manshan’s nasal cavity was so sore that he tried hard to hold it back, but tears fell one by one, and he wiped out a dumb voice and cursed, "Grass, bear with me" and opened his arms and rushed over. Qu Shuo and Liu Fangzhou hugged together, and the burly man, who was nearly 1.9 meters away, just buried his head in tears.
Xu Ge hugged Tongtong, raised his head and blinked his eyes desperately. The tissues were still wet one after another. Reunited after a long absence, lost and recovered, the atmosphere of excitement, excitement and sorrow lasted for a long time before slowly calming down.
Tang Song put his glasses back on, cleared his throat, and asked Lin Ruan, "The gang of Wang Liang who wanted to block the way, robbery, murder and seize nuclear weapons in T City, their crystal cores are still in the safe. "
Lin Ruan wiped the corners of his red eyes, and suddenly reacted, saying angrily, "You still have to absorb the crystal nucleus."
"Just absorb a few. I want to confirm one thing. Those people absorb fewer abilities, up to six or seven. They will no longer absorb Zhong Han crystal nuclei."
Lin Ruan gave him a fierce look, turned around and walked out after a short while holding a wooden box. He opened the lid of the box and picked them out, picking out a few of only two or three colors.
Tang Song put on his helmet, turned on the connection switch, and then absorbed them in turn, staring at the display screen.
Shen Shian walked over, "What did you find?"
Tang Song points to several electric wave lines on the display that obviously do not belong to him. "These lines are different from normal brain waves. They are intermittently strong and weak. There are obvious faults, and the brain wave lines in each crystal nucleus are like this. . But the brain waves of Lu Xiuyuan just now are clear and no different from normal people.”
He turned around and looked at Zhong Han, who had been neglected for a long time on a chair, "The consciousness in your mind, have you communicated with them?"
Zhong Han bleeds a lot of blood from his severed fingers and wounds on his body, his face turned pale with sorrow, he looked up at Liu Fangzhou, and then shook his head.
"why not"
"Those consciousnesses are all crazy, only screaming and crying, repeating meaningless words over and over again, how to communicate"
"This is the same as my previous experience." Tang Song turned to his teammates and explained, "I just tried to communicate with the consciousness in the crystal nucleus. Not only the crystal nucleus of Zhong Han, but also the just absorbed these, but none of them. Exceptionally, all consciousnesses will only repeatedly kill you or I want you to pay for their lives. They seem to have lost their sanity. From the results of the tester, their brain waves are all incomplete, not so much consciousness. In fact, it’s more like a residual obsession. But Lu Xiuyuan’s consciousness is different. His brain waves are very stable, no different from normal people. A more easy-to-understand term is a total loss, a high-definition. And Qu Shuo himself also Having said that, you and Lu Xiuyuan can communicate normally, right"
Qu Shuo nodded.
"This shows that Lu Xiuyuan's consciousness kept in the crystal nucleus is intact and has not suffered any damage during the transfer. So, what is the reason for this difference? The level of the evolutionary ability is the level of the time ability or Differences in the way of death"
Qu Shuo had a look, and then said, "Xiaolu said that he vaguely remembered that before he was dying, a ring of red light appeared from his body."
Liu Fangzhou and others immediately reacted to the "Protection Curse of Brother Xun"
Shen Shi'an was startled, turning his head to look at Shen Xun in the big explosion that had gathered tens of thousands of abilities with full force. Although Shen Xun's protection curse could not save Lu Xiuyuan's body, it firmly protected his consciousness. .
Various thoughts flooded through my heart, and finally condensed into a smile.
He clenched Shen Xun's hand to thank you.
Shen Xun returned to hold him. To be honest, he didn't expect that the protection spell would have such an effect, but the most important thing is to make An An happy.
Tang Song, who got the answer, nodded, "That's it."
He pinched the pale pink crystal core that belonged to his fingertips, unable to look away for a long time, "You tell me, what is this?" So mysterious, so beautiful, so indestructible. "Team hunting, I remember you said that Keos has something similar to a crystal nucleus"
Shen Xun nodded, "The Philosopher's Stone is only found around the endless abyss. It is born from the aura of evil spirits."
"Then in Kaios, after the death of the person who absorbed the Philosopher's Stone, did the consciousness be transferred to the Philosopher's Stone?"
"No. The Philosopher's Stone contains powerful energy. The absorption of the Philosopher's Stone is only to replenish the mana. After absorbing it, it will be gone. There will be no crystallization in the brain at all, and where will the consciousness transfer?" Shen Xun paused after speaking. After a pause, he said, "However, the creatures that absorb the Philosopher's Stone are all underground world creatures, and humans can't absorb it at all."
Tang Song subconsciously leaned forward, "You mean that the Philosopher's Stone is equivalent to a zombie crystal nucleus, which can only be absorbed by itself with mana and abilities, and there is no response to ordinary people."
"Yes. And human beings will become walking corpses if they are in contact for too long." Otherwise, how could Hexiu develop a virus through the Philosopher's Stone.
Xiong Manshan was suddenly startled when he thought of something, "Wait a moment, since the crystal nucleus of the absorbing ability will draw the consciousness inside together, will it be the same if the crystal nucleus of the zombie is absorbed?"
"No, the zombies have no consciousness."
"How come there are no high-level zombies, there are four-level zombies and they know the smelly makeup?"
Shen Shian thought for a while and shook his head, "No, Changsheng has absorbed the fourth-level zombie crystal nucleus, and has not found any abnormalities. Since the zombie crystal nucleus is similar to the Philosopher's Stone, it should be just a pure energy condensate."
Tang Song also shook his head, "The zombies have died long before the crystal nucleus evolved, and the brain cells are decayed and inactivated, and it is impossible to transfer consciousness."
Xiong Manshan relaxed. So the topic shifted to the supernatural nucleus.
"So unlike the zombie nucleus that Hexiu cultivated using human corpses as a vessel, the supernatural nucleus is a unique product of the combination of viruses and human genes. It is purely coincidental that consciousness transfer can occur," Lin Ruandao.
Tang Song said, "No, it can't be a coincidence."
Why doesn’t the psychic nucleus appear in other places? It happens to appear in the mind that forms consciousness. Why can’t it be detected by existing technology? Why can it be easily absorbed, but it happens to have a hardness beyond imagination when the owner survives Unable to transfer consciousness, the formation time in the brain is too short to transfer consciousness. Only when the time is satisfied and the owner dies at the same time, the consciousness will be firmly stored in it. It cannot be destroyed by external forces and can only be absorbed by the living body.
These are far more than just coincidences. On the contrary, they are more like some kind of high-tech clustering devices with precise settings, well-functioning, temporarily not understood by them, and for the purpose of storing energy and consciousness.
Liu Fangzhou cried a lot before, was drinking water, and almost squirted out a mouthful of water. "What high-tech device is this thing in the final analysis not Hexiu got it from Kaios? Kaios is a magical setting, yes. Alien beasts have magic, so they don’t have anything to do with things like technology."
"Everything can be reasonably explained by science. If it cannot be explained, it must be because we have not mastered the relevant theories and knowledge, and so is magic. Compared to our world, Kaios is a higher level. Face, then, above Kaios, why can’t there be a plane of the same level, or even a higher level, supported by a technological system? In this way, the so-called magic stone made of the evil spirit of Yin is completely possible It is the surviving technological civilization left over from the higher-order planes."
"If this hypothesis is true, then the virus, whether it is the original virus, zombie virus, or supernatural virus, is actually not a virus at all, but some kind of organic life created after sophisticated programming that we currently cannot understand. The function of the body is precisely to serve the higher-order plane creatures. As long as the virus is injected, it can strengthen the body's evolutionary abilities, and generate a consciousness transfer device in the brain that uses death as a trigger condition."
Tang Song straightened his back, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became. "Later, for some reason, this organic life form born under high-tech civilization spread to Kaios, and in the process mutated, forming a zombie crystal similar to it. Nuclear Philosopher’s Stone. Later, Hexiu brought the Philosopher’s Stone to our world, and isolated the original virus from it. The original virus was combined with human genes, and part of it maintained a mutated form to become a zombie virus, and part of it was mistyped. The collision activates the original settings and performance at the time of creation. That's why the supernaturalist will appear, so the supernaturalist's nucleus will appear."
It would be great if he could get a Philosopher’s Stone. As long as he could test the Philosopher’s Stone personally, he would be able to prove that this hypothesis was correct.
Tang Song lifted the frame, his eyes were full of scorching brilliance. "If I have the opportunity, I really want to go to Kaios for a field trip."
Lin Ruan thought for a while, and raised questions, "If the supernatural being's crystal nucleus is a high-tech device with the purpose of storing energy and consciousness, so as to extend the life of the owner and achieve immortality through immortality, then at least it should be What is guaranteed is the safety and integrity of consciousness transfer, right, but you also said that the consciousness in these crystal nuclei is incomplete, and the only complete Lu Xiuyuan is because of the protection curse of the hunting team. This means that the so-called consciousness transfer function is not established at all. It is impossible for the higher plane creatures who invented this device to have a protection curse."
Tang Song pondered for a moment, but still insisted on his own views. "First, since it is a legacy of surviving technology, it is very likely that the supernatural nucleus we see now is only a defective product, and it has not been able to exert its full effect; Second, high plane creatures do not necessarily have protection spells, but as long as the level of technology is high enough, another device can achieve a similar effect to protection spells. Moreover, triggering consciousness transfer through death is just our current guess, maybe There are other trigger conditions that can completely transfer consciousness."
"There is also a possibility that the so-called immortality does not actually require a complete transfer of consciousness. In our cultural legends, especially Taoist scriptures, it is generally believed that people have three souls and seven souls, and death will cause part of the soul to be missing, and then use Have you noticed that the incomplete soul was reincarnated and reincarnated? This and the incompleteness of the transfer of crystal nucleus consciousness actually correspond to each other."
Tang Song pinched his crystal core to his fingertips, and as it turned, it reflected the dazzling brilliance.
Muttered, "Perhaps, the soul is preserved in it."
Although Shen Shian's heart was just talking, it was not impossible.
Could it be said that the reason why the chief director of Guangwei could discover Qu Shuo’s abnormality was because he saw the soul of Lu Xiuyuan
Looking at Qu Shuo for a while, he asked Tang Song, "Can they only keep this state forever, can they think of a way to reshape Lu Xiuyuan's body"
Qu Shuo trembled, suddenly raised his head to reshape his body
After Lu Xiuyuan's sacrifice, his greatest wish was to see the other person in his dream, listen to the other person's voice, and say a few words to him, nothing else;
Perceiving that Lu Xiuyuan’s consciousness may still be alive, the ecstasy in his heart can hardly be described in words. God knows how many incense he burned and prayed for this during the days when he stayed at Qingyangguan, vowing that only Lu Xiuyuan’s voice is needed. It is not an illusion, even if the other party can only live in his own mind for a lifetime, he is willing to pay any price.
But people are always greedy. Now that it has proved that Lu Xiuyuan is indeed living in his mind, he can’t help but want to let the other person stand in front of him alive, touch him, touch him, and try his best. He pushed it into his arms to make up for the hugs that touched him before leaving, which always made him dream and regret.
The question that Shen Shian asked undoubtedly made the thoughts in his heart that he knew to be extravagant desires suddenly rolled into a prairie fire, and his eyes were frighteningly hot when he looked at Tang Song.
Liu Fangzhou and the others were also excited, and they made plans to "clone, ah, re-clone a brother Lu, and then ask Xinjiang to take out Brother Qu's crystal nucleus and let him absorb it."
"Clone also needs cells. Brother Lu's body has turned gray. Where can I find his cells"
"Cells are not a problem," Lin Ruan said. "My teacher and I have collected blood samples from Lu Xiuyuan many times, but I haven't used them up. There is still a lot of space left in the team leader's space. But the problem is that the clone is not only the embryo synthesis, but the rest of the process. It’s the same as normal pregnancy. It starts with the fetus. There is a time difference. What’s more important is that even clones grown from Lu Xiuyuan’s cells have independent self-awareness. In this case, absorbing the crystal nucleus will only be the same as Qu Shuo absorbing the crystal nucleus. Lu Xiuyuan's consciousness may not be able to control his body."
"Can you cultivate a pure body without consciousness? Just like the one played in science fiction movies, it can be cultivated directly in the nutrient tank to an adult, and then the consciousness can be activated to activate it," Liu Fangzhou said.
"How is this possible, the boat is too whimsical for you, right?"
"How can it be impossible? That's how it is played in the movie. Rich people can prepare many bodies for themselves. If this body is old or disabled, just pass the consciousness directly into the next one."
"You said it's a movie, it's impossible in reality."
Lin Ruan and Tangsong glanced at each other and did not speak.
Qu Shuo looked at the expressions of the two of them, and the flame in his eyes went out little by little.
Just as he was about to comfort the silent road Xiuyuan, Lin Ruan suddenly said, "It's not impossible."
"My biological mother, one of the creators of my body, once presided over a similar project, cultivating the body, trying to transplant the brain, so as to continue life. The experiment eventually failed, and the project disappeared. But she did successfully cultivate a lot of unconscious bodies."
Shen Shian asked "Can you do it?"
"If you can find detailed data about the original project, maybe you can." Tang Song said, "but that project was carried out in the capital, the capital before the end of the world, after so long, many places in the original capital have long become It is unknown whether the information has been destroyed or can be found if it is destroyed or razed to the ground."
Lin Ruan added, "Of course, these can only be answered after returning to the capital base."
Qu Shuo's chest was full of enthusiasm, and it was enough to clenched his fists, as long as there was still a glimmer of hope, that was enough.
He assured Lu Xiuyuan, "Don't worry, I will do my best to find out all the information."
Lu Xiuyuan snorted. After a while, I said, "If you really can't find it, then forget it."
Being able to survive in this way is actually a gift from heaven. Except for the inability to act autonomously, he can also perceive everything he hears, smells, sees, touches, and tastes. As long as the other party is obedient, it will be with his own body Not much difference.
Thinking of this command, "I want to eat fried noodles, bamboo shoots and shrimp meat sauce tonight"
Qu Shuo smiled, "Okay."
Xu Gedao "Since whether or not the crystal nucleus of the supernatural person has been absorbed can be detected by brain waves, does that mean that we can wash away the stigma on our bodies and prove our innocence"
Tang Song nodded, "That's right."
"Grass, finally wait until this day, when will we return to the capital" Xiong Manshan geared up.
Shen Shi'an "When Tao Yuan and the others come back, they will set off to return immediately."
"Okay, I'm Liu Wansan back again"
"Then we are ready to pack things."
"Three large-scale bases have been merged in succession, and the capital is expected to change drastically"
"The soldiers come to cover the water and earth, no matter how we change, our sharp edge is the most hanging."
""
The crowd talked in a lively manner and walked out. Shen Shian stopped Qu Shuo who was walking at the end, "Wait a minute."
Qu Shuo stopped and turned around, and saw Shen Shian stepping forward, opening his arms and hugging him vigorously.
