Eternal life is the highest desire of almost all lives.
Because eternal life itself represents almost endless time, he can do almost all things and seek almost all meanings. Anyone who has a goal will not think that eternal life is a bad thing, because it is the demonstration of all meanings.
It is the collection of all desires and dreams.
In the continent of Terra, a land where even the Ascendants have a short lifespan, there are very few people who do not desire eternal life.
The stronger the person is, the more he holds wealth, the more he has everything and wants to have it all forever, the more he cannot stop craving for it.
Don’t long for it, chase eternal life.
but……
Now Yin En just wants to laugh.
"The way to eternal life?"
His expression was extremely weird, like the kind of expression that made you want to laugh but felt disgusted at the same time, mixed with a little bit of sympathy and disgust - probably like seeing a young man deliberately running a red light to make a short video, and was caught.
The big truck crushed it into a pile of garbage that needed a shovel.
He was like this, he wanted to laugh, but he felt sad, and he felt contempt, but he felt pity for him and his family from the bottom of his heart.
The white-haired boy repeated with complicated emotions: "That's it? You call this eternal life?"
"yes."
As if he was also infected by Yin En's emotions, Patrick sighed and then became expressionless.
He closed his eyes and sneered after a while: "They think this is eternal life."
Yin En was speechless for a while.
Learning machines can instill knowledge through the subconscious. This is based on the technology of the Terran people's 'Message Bone', a data interaction organ that can directly connect to electronic devices, and it must be paired with a brain adapted to the transmission of digital information... Terra
The structure of human brains has obviously been modified to adapt to their electronic creations.
Learning machines not only allow people to learn professional knowledge, but also learn 'aesthetics' and 'etiquette sentiments' - except for thinking patterns, it can basically learn almost all knowledge.
It can even help people who have lost part of their memory to re-learn their past backup memories!
Back then, there was such a thing as a "memory and knowledge bank" on the earth. After all, thinking patterns also have an adaptation rate. The higher the adaptation rate, the higher the efficiency and stability of learning, and the easier it is to master it completely.
So, here comes the problem.
Suppose a person with a blank mind and no self-thinking completely learns another person's 'memory'.
Can it be said that the learner and the learner are the same person?
Can the learner use this method to achieve 'eternal life'?
The answer is obviously no.
Not to mention that what is learned is only memory. The brain structure is different, and the neural structure is also different. Even a blank person will not regard himself as a 'learned person' after learning a person's memory - it may lead to identity recognition.
Knowledge is disordered, but the learner and the learner may not necessarily make the same 'choice'.
This is obviously just another person with the same memory. Let alone eternal life, he can't even achieve the same goal, let alone seize his body or something.
At most, it can only be regarded as a 'reverberation'.
but……
"This is not a dead end road."
Although he looks down on it on the surface, the alarm bells are ringing in Yin En's heart: "Learning machines are only the most basic infusion of 'memory' and 'knowledge' - but the consciousness uploading machine that carries out 'cyberization', if its input is rewritten
The output logic can achieve 'consciousness replication' and 'thinking algorithm replication'!"
"A blank body has been copied by consciousness and thinking algorithms, and its neural structure has been reset through some kind of surgery and drug catalysis. It can basically be regarded as the 'second me in the world'!"
"And this can already be regarded as an 'echo'!"
The thinking logic of Echo and Ontology is completely consistent. They will make exactly the same judgment when encountering the same thing. They will make different choices only because of differences in intelligence.
If all the conditions are met, for example, the same neural network is used, and then the consciousness algorithm is accepted, the memory is instilled, and the nervous system is reconstructed, it is indeed possible to resurrect one person's will and thinking in another person.
Even, like an echo, you can create as many as you want.
At this point, it can basically be said to be 'eternal life'... For those who don't care much about self-identity, but just want to fulfill their 'purpose' and 'dream', and it doesn't matter who they are, there is a
The 'other self' who is exactly like me, can make the same choices, and will never betray me, can live on my behalf and accomplish my goals.
So what's the difference between living on your own?
But the problem is.
"They can't just accept the level of 'Echo'."
Yin En turned his head slightly and looked behind him in the direction where Isengard had left. He said solemnly: "How can these sublimated ones with great power and authority accept everything from another 'weak self'?
"
"What they need is not an echo, but a 'mirror'!"
——What they need is not a restoration of consciousness, but a ‘complete transfer of consciousness’!
——Upload your own thoughts completely into the brain of another person, and then achieve the result equivalent to 'seizing the body'!
"You are actually so smart?"
This time, Patrick was really surprised. The blond nobleman originally thought that he needed to roughly explain the difference between echo and mirror, but he did not expect that Yin En could understand the difference between the two so easily.
But this is better.
So he smiled and shook his head and said: "Of course, the 'mirror' requires not only simple thought transmission, but also 'soul transfer'... After the third energy level of 'heart light', the body and soul are entangled with each other.
Binding, even at the fifth level, cannot separate the intact spirit from the body while the body is intact."
"Although theoretically there is no essential technical difference between mirror and echo, the existence of soul adds a lot of difficulty."
really.
Yin En thought thoughtfully... there is no essential difference between consciousness copying and thinking algorithm copying, and consciousness uploading and downloading, but because this is the continent of Terra, a world with self-certification of 'soul'.
Therefore, the difficulty of uploading consciousness is far greater than that of the earth.
People on earth have no souls. The only things that can prove that they are themselves are thinking algorithms and memories. Uploading them is equivalent to transferring themselves.
But it’s not possible in Terra – in addition to memory and algorithms, the soul must also be transferred!
Reverberation, echo and mirror.
Pure memory; memory and algorithm; memory, algorithm and soul.
This is indeed a path to eternal life through constant transfer of self.
The only flaw may be that even if all the souls of the memory algorithm are transferred, the original sublimated power cannot be left to the new body.
But this is not impossible to solve.
The young man now fully understands why it is Isengard - he has the blood of the royal family, and also has the blood of the 'Erotic Dragon Refining'... If nothing unexpected happens, the purpose of Axel, the guardian of the land, should be
It is to occupy Isengard's body, and then use the modified blood of the corrosive dragon to in turn 'devour' or 'symbiotically' his own past body!
In this way, he doesn't even need to practice again, and he can directly possess the strength of the fifth level again... The next thing to do is to gradually cut the bloodline of the Corroded Dragon and the old body.
When he lets go of his old self, he is equivalent to living a second life!
And in the process, he could even master and annex all the wealth and power of the entire Ellen family, further strengthening the power of the royal family!
——It’s really fun!
Yin En is not sure that this is Axel's complete plan, but based on the current intelligence speculation, this is probably the purpose of the defender. The logic is self-consistent and can also explain Patrick's actions.
As an experimental material and future transfer target, Isengard must have at least the fourth level of strength before he can try to possess the fifth-level 'Emperor's Corpse'. Otherwise, he must either rebuild it or just
It can erode the blood of light refining dragon.
"It's really...evil."
At this moment, even Yin En, who didn't care much about these things, couldn't help but understand why Yin Najia II... would denounce the ancestors of his family as 'extremely evil'.
In particular, the ancestors who obtained this technology may have used this technology privately, or even been eroded by the 'ancient echoes' left in the machinery of previous era civilizations.
Yin En didn't intend to find out who was right and who was wrong between Yinaga II and his ancestors, since they were all dead anyway.
As for now, he completely understands why the people in Sequoia Base denounced the great elder as a devil.
Because, whether it is reverberation, echo or mirror, it all needs people as the material.
In the absence of human cloning, this usually means erasing a person's mind and retaining his body as a carrier of another life.
This is far more immoral than simple destruction.
Most of the doubts have been answered, and now Yin En has almost only one question left.
"And you?"
Raising his head and looking into Patrick's eyes, Yin En narrowed his eyes to cover up the silver-blue light flashing in his eyes: "Why don't you tell Isengard about this?"
