My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!-Chapter 717 - 442 Who is the 3rd?
Chapter 717: Chapter 442 Who is the 3rd?
"Biological Neurology," "Does Spiritual Power Really Exist," "Telepathy," "The Brain’s Potential"...
Uh... Uncle, what do these books have to do with your actual job?"
Xiao Yu pointed at the messy pile of books on the desk and spoke with a look of confusion.
Although it wasn’t her first time entering Meng Lang’s study, during her previous visits, it seemed as if everything was in order, and all the books on the bookshelf looked untouched.
Today, however, the study was like those of the mad scientists in movies, filled with a kind of clutter known as "the pursuit of knowledge"...
"Emm... Let’s just say that analyzing the ultimate role of market psychology in the insurance sales process from the physical foundation of the brain... that’s how you can understand it for now..."
Meng Lang put down the "Neuron Introduction" he was holding with a resigned face.
Through an indirect "Third Kind of Contact," the true form of existence of the Night Demon Clan was finally exposed.
They were not the "alien civilization species" skilled in biochemical technology and human transformation that he had previously speculated.
Instead, it was some kind of strange alien parasite!
The unknown means of remote control...
The so-called Spiritual Synchronization...
The puppets’ bizarre brain deaths time and again...
Everything seemed to have a reasonable explanation, a sudden enlightenment!
By turning the traitor Zhao Ge, he learned from the other side that their form of existence was a "neuron-like" bizarre creature.
They could invade the cerebral center of almost all Earth’s carbon-based life forms, and through shallow or deep parasitism and fusion, they could control the "host’s" consciousness and actions to a certain extent.
Zhao Ge and Chao Shu were such "parasitic puppets."
They called themselves the "Beloved Race"!
The difference between the two was that Zhao Ge was a public figure, his every move watched by the outside human world, so the manipulation of him was a kind of "shallow parasitism."
As a result, Zhao Ge retained most of his human consciousness and capabilities.
Chao Shu was different.
After all, as beings from two different planets, even if the Racial Talent of the Night Demon Clan was "carbon-based life form parasitism," the environments for survival and evolution were completely different, naturally leading to the idea of "compatibility."
If the indigenous life forms of the Night Demon Clan’s original planet had a compatibility of 100, then humans might only have 60.
This meant that humans were a kind of life form not fully compatible for Night Demon parasitism but could be forcibly parasitized.
Forced "deep parasitism" required more extensive remodeling of the human brain and nervous system, which typically resulted in complete destruction of the visual nerve center.
This was why Chao Shu became blind.
This matched Meng Lang’s original conjecture, which was that the Night Demon Clan’s living environment likely belonged to a dark, lightless place, similar to an underground world, whence they naturally developed their "sonic wave system skills."
One could say, even in parasitic control, the Night Demon Clan retained the penchant of their original living environment, preferring to manipulate "auditory animals" rather than "visual animals" like humans.
In the case of Chao Shu, it was a "misshapen product" of the forced integration of life forms from two planets.
No wonder, when Meng once asked if "Chao Shu counted as an Earth person or an alien," Zhao Ge had such a reaction.
Because Chao Shu neither belonged to the aliens entirely, nor was she purely an Earth person anymore...
However, although she lost her sight, Chao Shu gained some abilities that were more in line with the Night Demon Clan.
For instance, "Spiritual Synchronization"...
The ability that had been shown before, controlling Zhao Ge from a distance.
This "Spiritual Synchronization" is definitely a kind of "Black Technology" beyond the current understanding of Earth people.
In Zhao Ge’s words, it wasn’t like the brainwaves known to humans but instead some more mysterious, even faster-than-light-speed method of "spiritual control"!
So, even if separated by the vastness of space, the moment Zhao Ge arrived on Mars, he could not avoid the brutal conclusion of "brain death" on the spot.
Thinking of this, Meng Lang couldn’t help but sigh.
"Brave Heart" wasn’t just about those foolish teammates; it included Zhao Ge as well, the Earth compatriot who had "valiantly sacrificed" himself...
Indeed, humans are a complex species, sometimes incredibly cowardly, with the mere fear of death enough to utterly break them.
Yet sometimes, the courage born of love is enough to counter all fears in the world...
He too had tried to extract the Night Demon Clan from Zhao Ge’s brain, but aboard the starship, with medical conditions incredibly poor and no related technical expertise, it was totally impossible to start.
In Mr. Jin’s writings, there is a "Three Corpses Brain God Pill" that makes the martial world tremble with fear, with brain-infesting maggots that are virtually unsolvable.
The Night Demon Clan’s parasitism is even more unsolvable!
Trying to find that abnormal segment among the hundred billion neuron cells is like looking for a needle in the ocean.
Zhao Ge’s despair was not without reason; the human brain is so complex and fragile.
Forget about seeing it in one’s lifetime, even if technology advances another hundred years, achieving such a level of neural separation surgery is almost impossible.
Not to mention the even deeper integration with Chao Shu from the Night Demon Clan...
If that "Nest" is an aircraft carrier responsible for overall strategy, intelligence dispensation, and mission assignment...
Then Chao Shu is an "Early Warning Aircraft."
