Yin En knew from the murals before that the ancestors of the Sequoia Aboriginals used many methods to enable future generations to remember the knowledge they need.
The most stable and best learning machine was eliminated due to difficulty in maintenance and excessive energy consumption. In the end, this laboratory with an alien and alien ecosystem chose to use a biological plug-in to carry the necessary memories and also
Transform yourself and inject some of the most critical knowledge and thinking into the DNA of future generations.
Yin En knew that the Terran people were a stable race whose DNA was extremely stable and would not undergo abnormal mutations due to the reproduction of offspring. The advantage was that they could remain stable and not mutate even under various extreme circumstances, but the disadvantage...
...There is no harm in cooperating with the Terran bio-alchemy.
But without biological alchemy, the most disadvantages would be distortion and the difficulty of adapting to some extremely abnormal special environments through mutation.
However, the Terran people are inherently adaptable to all environments, so this disadvantage really does not exist.
In the same way, if the knowledge is written in the biological plug-ins of Terra technology or even in their own bodies, then it is indeed a more stable inheritance method than anything else.
However……
If there are no problems with technology, the prerequisite is that there will be no problems with people.
A certain generation of Sequoia elders had other ideas.
He wants eternal life.
"Is it to modify the auxiliary thinking organ and let your memory cover those who have the thinking organ installed?"
Yin En immediately thought of this possibility.
Probably.
Of course, as a great elder who has inherited the technology of the civilization of the previous era, compared to the great shaman who has deteriorated countless times, he must be very aware of the difference between reverberation, echo and mirror.
Mere reverberations covered by memories cannot be considered eternal life at all.
And even if the modified parasite comes with its own neural network and thinking algorithm, it is nothing more than an echo.
There is still a long way to go before the mirror method of true immortality.
But the problem is...
"There is spiritual power in this world - if the speculation about this auxiliary memory plug-in is true, its quick link and knowledge transmission are probably also a kind of spiritual power of mind sharing."
Crushing the brain of the Brain-Eating Worm in his hand and carefully observing some traces of psychic energy left in it, Yin En did not feel sick, but he was very interested: "Could it be said that the great elder integrated himself into the Brain-Eating Worm?"
The psychic network of insects only needs to constantly update and replace the hosts of brain-eating insects to ensure that their thoughts continue to spread?"
"And the reason why Master Gesai showed abnormalities before was because he came into contact with the knowledge stored in the brain-eating insect's psychic network, or was it part of the great elder's memory?"
Thinking about these possibilities, Yin En somewhat understood why the Sequoia Aboriginal people left the Sequoia Base.
A certain great elder who had mastered almost all the keys, in order to live forever, used other tribesmen as flesh and blood tools to copy his own consciousness, which led to an uprising among other Sequoia tribesmen. The battle between the two sides resulted in the destruction of quite a few ecological tools. Those who were still there back then
All kinds of monsters and creatures in the ecosystem have left the ecosystem, causing the situation of the originally stable base to deteriorate.
——Although we don’t know the specific time, the fourth-level Frost Crystal Dragon and the Frost Butterfly were able to fight in the cooling warehouse. The chaos back then was definitely dozens of times more intense than it is now.
The Great Elder must have failed. This can be known from the fact that all four keys were preserved by the indigenous people. However, due to the destruction of the ecosystem, they still had to leave the 'Holy Land'.
"The great elder may not be completely dead - just like the great shaman, Crocodile Dragon's death may be a way for him to escape from his golden cicada shell. There may not be any backup for him within the Sequoia Aboriginal people."
"Of course, Crocodile Dragon is dead. Even if the Great Shaman is still alive, it doesn't make any sense. What's more, he definitely doesn't have such high skills. At most, he just backs up a memory."
After washing his hands with river water, Yin En stood up and looked around. He thought: "As for the Sequoia people back then, they probably wanted to destroy all the brain-eating bugs, but it was obvious that they did not achieve this.
Evacuate the base in a hurry - looking at the current situation, the brain-eating bugs are alive and well, at most they are a little unconscious and a little lost."
After comprehensive information from various sources, he had a rough guess about what happened in the Sequoia Base in the past. Yin En couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's fortunate that Yin Naga II resisted the temptation back then."
"As one of the most powerful psykers of that era, it would be easy for him to transfer his soul, right? After acquiring Echo's technology, he can transform anyone who meets the requirements into a mirror at will."
"You know, given the prestige of Yinaika II at that time... even if he wanted to live forever, there would probably be young people who worshiped him and couldn't wait to give their bodies to become his new generation walking in the world.
Flesh."
"Just like my family did when they got this secret method, the first thing they thought of was to make them immortal."
——Perhaps it was this kind of worship that was almost like a god that made Yinaga II decide to veto this method of immortality.
Because he understands the temptation of eternal life, Yin En can understand how much benefit and future Yinaiga II rejected at that time.
After waiting for a while, Yin En realized that it might take some time for Shark and Andor to wake up, so he used his precognitive vision to observe their future.
After making sure there was nothing serious, he went to explore the surrounding area.
The giant eel has disappeared, and Patrick has not caught up with him. The giant eel must have started a fight with him after losing its target.
And Isengard is now with Master Goser... Yin En doesn't know if Isengard is ready to deal with Patrick after hearing his hint, but with Master Goser here, there should be no problem.
Following the slowly flowing underground river, Yin En observed the man-made and natural tributaries extending in all directions.
One disadvantage of precognitive vision is that when there is no danger, even with the medium of Frost Butterfly, you cannot tell whether which direction is the direction you want to go... There is indeed a difference between danger, but whether it is dangerous or not does not matter.
Do you need it on behalf of Yin En?
But at this time, you can only choose a random path to gamble.
Yin En chose an upward river, because he heard slight movement sounds from the other side of the river. It was not the sound of water, nor the sound of monsters. It was quite regular, like the sound of mechanical operation, which made the young man a little curious.
Not long after walking, he saw the source of the sound.
That's a person.
Winter, winter, winter.
In the renovated semi-natural cave, it should be a rest stop for maintenance workers built by the civilization of the previous era. You can see the ruins of a decaying maintenance hut by the river, and in front of it is a sealed metal door.
This metal door is not protected by the anti-corrosion inscriptions of the rooms surrounding the sacrificial site. It is now almost completely rusty, but it is still strong.
Winter, winter, winter.
And a naked man, who looked very similar to the previous aberrant man, was banging on the door hard.
Yin En clenched the long sword in his hand. He thought that the aberrant man would turn around and attack him in the next moment, but he never thought that the other party would treat him as if he didn't exist.
metal door.
Winter, winter, winter.
He was still banging and muttering some nonsense to himself.
"Must return to the central control room, must return to the central control room, must return to the central control room, must return to the central control room..."
There are many bones in front of the metal door, including human beings, wild beasts, and magical beasts. Most of these bones have turned into white bones, but some are still rotting.
Picking up a long bone, it is probably the vertebra of some kind of beast, but it is completely hardened. It is more like a stick than a vertebra.
Similar aberrations occurred everywhere, and every corpse was parasitized.
Winter, winter, winter.
When Yin En walked behind this aberrant man, he was still knocking on the door. The young man narrowed his eyes, and the silver-blue halo flashed. He seemed to have discovered something.
Bang, he swung his sword, and the aberrant man's head was shattered, but there was nothing inside.
Only a growing pink tapeworm is squirming.
The movement still didn't stop, he was still knocking on the door.
“You’ve eaten your head, but you’re still knocking on the door?”
Yin En said calmly, Yin En struck the sword again, completely shattering the body of the aberrant man. His belly was torn apart by his own vertebrae, and what flowed out along with the internal organs were large and densely packed red and blue liquids.
Insect eggs and tadpole-shaped larvae.
These insects are eating flesh and blood, strengthening themselves, and merging with each other, connecting the neural structures in their bodies together, and reshaping all the sensory structures in the parasite's body.
But even after this, the humanoid muscles were still dragging the already dilapidated body and climbing towards the door.
"We must return to the central control room... to protect the First Ecological Laboratory... we cannot... we cannot let the Great Elder succeed..."
The still intact mouth and throat are still squeezing out broken sounds that humans can no longer understand. Only the boy with the silver chip can understand it through analysis.
And these words brought him new doubts.
"Can't we let the Great Elder succeed?"
He muttered to himself with some doubts, and then looked at the parasitic deformed man under his sword: "Strange thing, judging from the clues, isn't the person behind the parasite not the Great Elder?"
