The first thousand two hundred and twenty-four chapters spread the virus
"They also extracted a huge number of souls." Lilina squinted her eyes, reminding me of this incident that was almost forgotten for a moment.
"The soul itself is a set of efficient computing rules, human memory is the database, self-awareness is various application software and front desk, and the soul is the underlying computing rules and operating system, a carbon-based biological brain, 'hardware' computing
The ability is limited by its physiological structure. Once calculations exceed the limit, various biological self-protection mechanisms will be activated. Shock, coma, fatigue, lack of concentration, and various physiological phenomena will prevent the brain from performing calculations that exceed its physical limits.
, and since the soul is attached to the body for survival in most cases, the soul's processing of information is limited to this level."
I remained silent and listened quietly to Lilina giving me some popular science. I never expected that this guy in front of me, who was always chirping and jumping up and down, could be so quiet and serious. Now she looks like a knowledgeable and knowledgeable person.
Like a wise teacher, I suddenly realized that the person in front of me probably knew much more than the most knowledgeable person in human history: she completed her training directly in front of God's textbooks.
"Generally, the computing power of the soul is limited, but since there are general situations, there are exceptions - Boss, you know, there are some souls that are not attached to the material body." Lilina suddenly winked slyly.
Blinking, waiting for my reaction.
"A soul that is not attached to a material body?" I thought about it and suddenly realized, "Energy creatures! Psychic creatures!"
"There is also the luminous sister in the boss's head who sleeps all day long," Lilina nodded. "The souls of non-corporeal creatures have unique computing advantages because they do not need to rely on physical organs for data processing. Therefore, their souls undertake all calculations.
There are no restrictions on tasks, and there are no hidden dangers of overheating or energy consumption. Their thinking is infinitely broad and they can think about every problem countless times in an instant. If purely based on efficiency, the soul of an incorporeal creature is the most efficient computing machine...
"
"Oh, no," I suddenly thought of something. "Why do you feel that this is not in line with Alaya's current intelligence?"
Lilina rolled her eyes: "This is also caused by the shortcomings of energy creatures. The law of life is fair, and every creature has its own weaknesses. The data processing speed of energy creatures is super fast, but because their thinking process cannot be finalized, and
The lack of physical restrictions and disciplines caused their thinking to be in an endless loop most of the time, or they spread many questions too broadly. In the end, they came up with a completely different answer - well, now let's go with Alaya's
The current state of intelligence is the same."
I:"……"
"The situation of the three more mainstream life forms in terms of thinking ability, or data processing ability, is this: the main thinking ability of silicon-based life and its branches comes from solid organs, and the soul only serves as an operating system. Their thinking tendencies
It is based on precision, linearity, high efficiency and low tolerance. Its weakness is that the thinking process is too linear and insufficient in flexible thinking and variability; the thinking mode of carbon-based life and its branch life forms is similar to that of silicon-based life, and it is difficult to process data.
The advantages are fuzzy calculation, non-linear processing, variable results and association ability, but the disadvantages are low efficiency and limited accuracy. And there are often unexpected errors - as the saying goes, children with brain disabilities have more fun; energy life is similar to everything
As a non-entity life, all thinking processes are directly supported by the operating system of the soul. Executed by the surface will, it is as fast as a solid-state drive that is separated from the mechanical structure - they are even separated from the solid-state drive, and their thinking
The advantages are unlimited ultra-high speed, non-linearity even exceeding that of carbon-based life, and it will never burn out. The disadvantages are various endless loops, unnecessary divergent thinking, frequent personal downtime, and the impact on the real world.
Things always respond with various delays and delays, which is the legendary mental patient's broad thinking: their thinking is so broad that they don't even know what they are thinking for a while."
I thought about it and felt that according to this standard, Qian Qian probably belongs to the kind of person whose soul is out of body for twenty-three hours a day... and Sylvia's soul is probably never in body. Alaya's recent intelligence
It seems to have increased because she found a trick: living in my mind helps her reduce the number of times she falls into a daze.
After Lilina finished the popular science for me, she turned the topic back to the huge equipment in front of her: "The Merova people may not have learned directly usable starship host technology from the empire, but they can probably learn it from the public database.
They found something similar to conventional knowledge, so they forcibly separated the souls and bodies of ordinary carbon-based creatures. The human brain can serve as the fuzzy processing part in the host, and the lack of computing power is supplemented by the solidified soul server.
.After separating the soul from the body, the former is no longer bound. A certain degree of modification may be able to burst out enough computing power. The Merova people must have carried out some other 'processing' means to make the normal soul
It completely becomes an operating system. The connection between the two is replaced by other devices manufactured by them. I don’t understand the specific process. After all, I only know the knowledge related to life forms, but I am sure that according to what I said
With this method, everything is feasible.”
I don’t know how to evaluate such an “initiative” of the Merova people. Perhaps in their own eyes, this is an unprecedented creation of genius—using copycat technology to separate the brains and souls of the indigenous people and create a set of operations themselves.
system, using this operating system to completely replace the mainframe of the Imperial Starship... and it was successful. For them, this is probably a great victory.
In this way, the new power that Barian gained probably means that he finally created enough "human hosts" and completely controlled the royal fleet back then.
"There must be a place like the Soul Forge somewhere here that manufactures servers." Lilina frowned and looked around at the matrix of processors connected by human brains. These processors are the hardware of the Melova host.
, and the original souls of these brains were extracted and made into operating systems and auxiliary processors. They no longer have the memory and personality of when they were human beings, and turned into such half-dead machine parts... Lilina said
That's right. There must be another assembly factory somewhere here, which is used to convert ordinary carbon-based biological souls into isolated "tools" like energy biological souls. She named this place the Soul Furnace.
That's absolutely true. But at this point, we can no longer find other areas by tracking the staff. There must be a strict zoning system between the Soul Furnace and the Human Brain Factory. We have not found anything in this factory that may be related to the Soul Project.
Related things - the closer you get to the depths of the criminal base of Barian, the tighter the security measures. Even so tight that they themselves don't know the situation in another area. It took Lilina and me a full three hours to
The entrance to the so-called soul furnace was found - it was actually in a deep underground cave dozens of kilometers outside the base.
Different from the typical industrial base scene of the Human Brain Factory, the Soul Forge looks more like a religious place where evil rituals are held. It is a deep cave hundreds of kilometers underground, with a vast interior, a perfect circle, and all directions.
Although the light is not dim, the lavender mist lingering here and the faint mournful sound coming from the wind give everything a gloomy atmosphere. There are complex and regular patterns everywhere in the huge cave.
The crystals placed there are probably the devices used by the Merova people to store and transform souls. I guess these devices were most likely stolen from the empire - the Fifteen Days District back then was proud of its mysterious technology.
, the highest technology that the Merova people secretly learned from the Fifteen Days Zone is of course the knowledge of the mysterious system. For things like soul extraction and transformation, the mysterious system technology has more advantages.
In the endless circular cave, there are huge bottomless fissures everywhere, and the steam is steaming in the fissures. It seems that this place is close to the magma layer. In the center of the cave, there is a deep well that goes deeper, and you can't see it at all.
Where is the end? Only a faint red light can be seen at the bottom. I thought it was magma at first. But Lilina went down to investigate and told me that it was actually a huge soul crystal, and
She saw a large number of criss-crossing crystalline networks at the bottom of the cave, which shows that the soul furnace we found is just one of many furnaces - just like the previous conjecture, Barian has built many hell factories like this.
We also found the assembled soul servers. When the shells are installed, they look exactly like the servers of the Imperial Starship host. They have common interfaces and standard shells. But when you open these shells, there is no psionic structure inside, but
It is a large group of mournful clouds and red soul crystals. The Merova people use this crystal, which has a strong binding effect on weak energy, to imprison the soul, and use the interface they created to connect the crystal and psionic energy.
The data ends were connected together, and just like that, their starship host arrays were continuously mass-produced.
"According to Turazo, they have been executing this plan for nearly a thousand years. Every year, the newly added population on the three slave donor planets will be taken away," I calculated silently, "but until now,
Barian basically took control of all the imperial starships...in the process, how many people died due to failed transformation?"
"I'm going to throw him into the fourth area and tie him in the furnace and burn him for ten thousand years." Lilina pressed her hand on an exposed soul crystal, as if she could talk to the mournful soul inside. As a life god system
The demigod, she was really angry, "Life is not wasted like this... The surrounding lavender clouds are all filled with souls that collapsed due to failed transformation. They have accumulated to the point where they have become substantial. The Merova people did not dispel these ghosts.
Because the latter can serve as the energy and 'amniotic fluid' of this furnace, they burn these ghosts like firewood just to save resources!"
Now all the mysteries have been solved, the truth about Barian's control of the royal fleet, the truth about the indigenous people who were taken away, and the truth about brainwashing education - because the brainwashed indigenous people will lose their will to resist, and the superficial will will weaken at the same time.
It can also weaken the resistance strength of the soul, so those Merova people can improve their host manufacturing success rate. Lilina and I didn't stay in the soul furnace for long. The atmosphere here made us both feel very uncomfortable, but
We still got a little extra information at the end - under the extremely high probability of transformation failure, in order to "reduce costs", the Melova people not only manufactured large hosts, but also used bad and less thorough "leftovers" to manufacture small hosts.
, they used small soul crystals and human brain cores to replace the control systems in the empire's individual fighters and individual vehicles. Thus, they controlled the entire royal fleet from top to bottom!
"We must tell Sandora the news as soon as possible," after carefully leaving the soul furnace. Lilina and I discussed, "We must find a way to eliminate the threat of the royal fleet, but now they are controlled by the human brain host...
Psychological pressure is also a problem. In addition, we have to find a way to suspend activities in this place."
My eyes are in the distance. Those huge human brain factories and dismantling factories rise and fall on the horizon, like sharp-edged mountains. I don’t know what their production efficiency is, but I am sure that there are countless of them on this planet.
A similar hell on earth. Every minute and every second, people transported from slave donor planets are dismantled and turned into parts on Merova warships. What is the population growth rate of those slave donor planets? Here
How high is the production speed?
Massacre is happening every second!!
In any case, before the Empire launches a general offensive, this facility must be shut down - not only to save people, but also to reduce the number of Old Empire starships we have to face. Although it seems that Barian has generally controlled all the Old Empire
Royal Fleet, but looking at the operating status of these factories, I guess he needs more human brain hosts - no matter what he needs, he can't continue to succeed!
"If you destroy it directly, it will be difficult to destroy all the bases at once, and you can't tell if there are similar bases on other planets. I don't know where they hide the completed hosts..." Lilina immediately said quickly
Thinking about it, his head full of curious and dark thoughts was running at high speed, "This will make Barian more vigilant and even suspicious of the resistance organization... It should be disguised as an accident or a mysterious disaster, a mystery that shut down all research bases."
Disasters...viruses, plagues, mutated organisms...these methods are all effective. But they may not be able to shut down all factories, after all, we can't find where other factories are."
I thought about it and thought of various emergency response practices: "Then let the Melova people have the illusion that other factories are also at risk of similar accidents, and they will naturally suspend these projects."
Lilina smiled slyly: "I'm good at this... Since they are engaged in biochemistry, the contamination of experimental samples is definitely more worrying than the infection of staff."
Lilina's thinking was spinning, and she had infinite power in these bad ideas: just as powerful as the Nanfu battery. She decided to spread two viruses in this experimental base. One was aimed at the Merova people and had an astonishing fatality rate.
, but one kind is aimed at the slaves who were sent over.
But the second virus is not fatal. It will only cause symptoms of illness in people and present a variant form of the first virus. Lilina’s plan is to use this method to make the Merova people mistakenly think that they are
There is a viral plague happening on the slave donor planet, so they will not be sure whether all other "host raw materials" are still safe, and may even doubt whether the hosts manufactured in the past period are still reliable. Maybe they can check quickly
The situation is clear, but at least in the near future, these factories will have to shut down.
Some "hosts" can be infected by biological viruses. This is probably one of the weaknesses of the Merova project.
"In the early stages, they should temporarily isolate all infected personnel and slaves for examination, but if they find that the virus cannot be cured, they will systematically eliminate the infected personnel: at least when eliminating those slaves, they will not
"I will hesitate," a ball of green light lingered in Lilina's hand, and she was making those "cute and deadly little guys", "So I have to carefully adjust this thing to make them look tricky, but 100% curable. Mei
The Luowa people will not execute those 'raw materials' when they can treat them. After all, even if they regard slaves as crops and livestock, they have been cultivated at a cost."
"You really see the dark sides of human nature..."
I looked at Lilina speechlessly. This "mercy female pope" who represents the gods, what she knows best is all kinds of nasty things in human nature. She is never afraid to use the greatest malice to guess the limits of others' behavior.
And every time, she can always grasp these lower limits just right and use them as her own weapons. Evil people need to be punished by evil people - Lilina is the best at dealing with evil people among us. Her twisted psychology is used to deal with those who are not twisted enough.
The guy is simply too invincible.
"Okay, that's it." Lilina snapped her fingers, and the green light in her hand gradually subsided, and then from the afterglow of the last light, a large group of colorful butterflies flew out!
I looked at this group of beautiful rainbow-like butterflies in amazement. They were dancing in the bright sunshine. They were gorgeous, light, and cheerful. They could be described as beautiful sights. However, they were murder tools created by Lilina - President Lilina
She likes to make the killing tools she makes so beautiful.
"Just leave the rest to these little guys. I gave them the most basic intelligence, and they will try to find other bases similar to this one on the planet to make the illusion of virus infection more realistic.
"Lilina looked at the butterflies flying farther and farther against the sun with a motherly smile, "They will dissipate in the air and water. As long as they do not break away from these bases, they can multiply indefinitely, even though they only take a few minutes to create.
