Chapter 104
He wanted to kiss Zhang Xun.
………………………………………………
In order to start researching the materials for the synthesis of the arm, Zhang Xun recently began to frequently go to the fifth district, because the Institute of Life Sciences and the Department of Chemistry are there. On a lightly raining afternoon, Zhang Xun was in the dark basement cultivation room of the Institute of Life Sciences and was watching intently Dr. Tian, who was cooperating with him to manufacture new declaration materials, demonstrating the complex process of protein folding when suddenly a The messenger ran in, it was a summons from the headquarters.
He and Adam were summoned again.
Thinking of the result of the last summons, Zhang Xun had a bad feeling. With a heavy heart, he put down the tablet computer in his hand, put on his coat and went out with the messenger.
When they arrived at the command post, Adam had already been brought to him. And when Zhang Xun saw the person sitting at the chair of the conference table, his heart sank to the bottom of the well.
The sixth chief, Sigmund Miller, was looking down at the report in front of him. Beside him, Patti, the psychiatrist who had given Zhang Xun a psychological assessment before, was looking at him with a pair of deep dark eyes.
Those eyes always make Zhang Xun feel creepy...
Zhang Shuo sat on the other side of the sixth chief, and several other familiar generals were also present.
Adam followed behind Zhang Xun, as if sensing Zhang Xun's uneasiness, he lightly supported Zhang Xun's lower back with his hand.
This time, the soldiers who brought them here obviously had a subtle change in their attitude towards Adam. They were less rude and shy, and even kept an awkward and cautious distance. This is a good sign, indicating that the hostility towards Adam among the soldiers has eased to a certain extent.
Why did the sixth chief come to the headquarters in person? What happened to that psychiatrist?
After Zhang Xun slightly bowed and saluted, he sat down on the chair and glanced at his father uneasily.
But Zhang Shuo didn't look at him.
The sixth chief said in his usual rigorous tone, "The interrogation of Muruk, the prisoner of Feather Serpent City, has come to an end. This Mexican has a tight mouth, but thanks to Dr. Patty, he managed to obtain enough information. Specifically The content is in the report of the face paint."
Everyone hurriedly opened the paper report and looked at the densely packed writing on it. For a while, only the sound of paper flipping could be heard in the conference room, and the air was filled with the smell of printing ink.
Zhang Xun briefly scanned the marked key words, vaguely aware of the significance of calling them to attend this meeting.
"The Feathered Snake City obviously hopes to be recognized and accepted by Eden. In addition to the unsuccessful attempt to hijack Adam last time, they are also carrying out an immoral 'ascension plan'. Not only superficially put some parts of the body Partly replaced with machinery, but fundamentally, transforming human beings."
The sixth chief paused for a while, straightened his body, and pulled his tie with his hand, "I mean, transforming the human brain so that humans have stronger memory, planning and calculation capabilities. At the same time, using the drug essence Accurately control the hormone levels of people, and weaken part of people's instinctive conditioned reflexes. The modified brains do not need to communicate with each other, but can communicate directly through signal transmission, which greatly enhances the efficiency and accuracy of communication. These brains The interconnection can form a kind of cloud network that operates independently, and each transmission point, that is, each brain, can download and upload information.”
"To put it simply," Zhang Shuo said, "They are turning people into computers."
The author has something to say: The Ascension Plan of Feather Snake City was inspired by Neuralink

Chapter 46 Machinery and Life (4)
Modifying human genes, modifying human brain, more and more places can be modified, and every cell in the body can be replaced.
So in the end, what else can determine whether you are human or not, and what can determine whether you are yourself? Are genetically modified children still their parents' children? Is the person who uploaded his consciousness to the cloud still a person?
All boundaries and definitions are being blurred, destroyed, and overturned.
In the ordinary world, a more complicated and complicated ethical review system often prevents some too radical technologies from being widely used. But in these refugee countries, especially emerging refugee countries, where the rule system is not so perfect, as long as they have the means to realize a certain technology, there is almost no power to stop them. If the human brain is upgraded and connected to each other to establish a shared consciousness, this technology will be developed later, when the cloud consciousness becomes more and more extensive, it will be a very powerful and terrifying weapon. It's even possible to surpass Eden's weapon.
Zhang Xun thought in a daze, maybe this is the end of all human beings.
Not some great plague, not some nuclear war, but the disappearance of individuals. All individuals are merged into one, sublimated into pure Absolute Consciousness, where there is no distinction between self and other.
I don't know whether to yearn for it or feel afraid.
The sixth chief's upright and handsome face was covered with a thick haze. With a background as a mechanic, he fully understands the significance and threat of Feathered Snake City's plan.
