Eisen followed Gao Tianjun and Ding Yushi and first took a special plane to a military airport in the northwest, then transferred to a helicopter and flew over Base
Among the green squares, he also saw the Aerospace Hotel where he once lived, which was still the same as before... This was his second time coming to Base
It was deserted, with almost no pedestrians in sight.
After the helicopter landed on the apron of the headquarters building, Eisen also noticed a very strange phenomenon: both the officers who came to greet them and the soldiers on duty at the gate were all wearing sunglasses!
"The base was attacked by an unknown pathogen, and the whole city is still under martial law." After meeting them in his office, Li Zhanxiong told the truth straight to the point.
"How could this happen?" Gao Tianjun asked. He was not surprised because Aisen had already told him what was happening here and in Zhongzhou City in advance.
"You seem to already know?!" Li Zhanxiong's eyes swept back and forth between Gao Tianjun and Aisen, "Who told you?"
"It's me, Chief. I can see it," Aisen said. "I saw the chaos caused by the 'Cloud Body' elements in Base X and Zhongzhou. Not only that, I also know that Director Gao was ordered to lead
I'm here because you want to try it out and see if I can communicate mentally with the things in people's bodies."
Li Zhanxiong stared at Aisen and said nothing for a long time.
He did think so. He had long accepted the superpower of immortal people to communicate with other species on Venus through their thoughts, so when he believed that the "pathogen" was the "cloud" molecules accidentally brought back by the spacecraft, and that they were passed through
After studying the concept of visual nervous system transmission, I immediately thought of Eisen - since the "cloud body" molecules belong to a kind of intelligent life, they must also be conscious. Therefore, if Eisen can be allowed to communicate with them, maybe we can
Know their intentions.
In fact, Li Zhanxiong knew better that Jacob's ability was far superior to that of Eisen, but considering that this was a very high-level secret experiment after all, he could only leave it to Eisen to try.
Unexpectedly, Aisen actually knew everything in advance!
"It seems that your ability has been significantly improved, Aisen!" Li Zhanxiong said to Aisen. "Whether you 'see' it in your own consciousness, or what you say is transmitted to you by the 'marginal space', everything you said is correct."
It’s a fact! I do plan to let you try it!”
He motioned them to sit down first, and then gave them a brief introduction to the ins and outs of the incident and the preliminary judgments of the experts. Finally, he said: "We have learned about what happened on the Kunlun from Colonel Yan Shaojun. Sean is
The first person to be attacked, but his symptoms disappeared quickly, so Yan Shaojun relaxed his vigilance. After they arrived at the rehabilitation center, the first person to show symptoms happened to be the doctor responsible for transporting Sean, and the third person showed symptoms.
The two people were the doctor's assistants...the spread started along this path!"
"Since Sean was attacked by the 'Cloud Body' elements first, how come Yan Shaojun and Vera are fine? They should have made eye contact with Sean?" Ding Yushi asked.
"God knows! Maybe the activity of this molecule has its own rules, or there are other reasons. In short, luckily both Yan Shaojun and Vera are fine! In fact, not only that, I and many people who have been to the landing site have also
It’s okay!”
"Could it also depend on character?" Ding Yushi said leisurely.
"How many people are still in the base who have not recovered yet?" Gao Tianjun asked.
"So far, there are more than 20 people under observation in the hospital, and most of them are in serious condition."
"Chief, please take me to see those people now!" Aisen said eagerly.
Li Zhanxiong pressed his hand on Aisen's shoulder and said, "Okay! But to be on the safe side, we have to wear this." After saying that, he stood up and walked to the bookshelf, took down several pairs of sunglasses from the top, and handed them to each one.
He left one pair for Aisen, Gao Tianjun and Ding Yushi. "We have asked everyone in the base to wear it when going out. Because it can block visual communication, wearing it seems to really work... Frankly speaking
, we don’t know how those things like to attack people who stare at it.”
Eisen and Gao Tianjun followed Li Zhanxiong to the base hospital. All the medical staff and guards here were wearing sunglasses. Eisen thought the atmosphere was a bit funny.
Li Zhanxiong walked outside the door of a ward, looked inside through the glass on the door, and turned back to Eisen and said: "The person here is an engineer working in Factory No. 2, and his symptoms are relatively stable at the moment. If you are ready,
Okay, let’s start from here!”
Aisen nodded, and Li Zhanxiong asked the staff to open the door and let him go in alone, blocking Gao Tianjun and Ding Yushi from the door.
Eisen put on the headset and entered the ward, and saw a person sitting on the edge of the bed facing the window and back to the door. There were three beds in the room, but there was only this person.
He slowly walked to the side of the engineer and observed for a while. The other person seemed not to see him and was still looking out the window blankly. Eisen noticed that the engineer was wearing dark blue work clothes and was about 40 years old.
Be upright, with your back straight.
"Hello!" Eisen tried to greet him. The engineer had no response.
Eisen came to the front of the engineer and sat on a stool. The distance between the two was less than 1 meter, and he could almost feel the other person's breath. He continued to stare at the person in front of him through his sunglasses, but the other person's eyes remained blank.
He didn't turn to him. He just sat quietly like this for a few minutes, and the other party didn't show any violent mood swings - which was what he was originally worried about and had been wary of. He gradually relaxed.
He began to ask the engineer questions in his mind: Who are you? Where did you come from?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The engineer seemed to have received the thoughts from Eisen. His body shook slightly, but he did not answer. He was still looking out the window with the same dull eyes as before.
"He moved!" Eisen was overjoyed. He conveyed his thoughts to the other party again: Can you see me?
The engineer's eyes began to change unnoticeably, but Eisen could see it. He was waiting for the other person to turn his eyes to him. However, the engineer did not do this. After turning his eyes a few times, they returned to normal.
Lost his original look.
Seeing that the effect was not obvious, Aisen changed his mind: If you are willing to communicate with me, maybe I can answer the questions you want to know!
This time the engineer finally turned his gaze back from the window and began to look at Eisen with a very cold look... After a few seconds, he closed his eyes.
Aisen said to Li Zhanxiong outside the door through the headset: "He seemed to understand what I meant, but he didn't reply. Now his eyes are closed. I want to take off my sunglasses!"
"No!" Li Zhanxiong immediately stopped, "Listen! Aisen, you must wear sunglasses at all times, I need you to stay rational...Aisen!"
Aisen has taken off his sunglasses!
"You can see me now," he thought.
The engineer suddenly opened his eyelids and stared at Eisen. Eisen instantly felt dizzy and tinnitus, and his mind was buzzing. He tried hard to keep his consciousness awake and tried not to think about whether the thing had come in.
Instead, he continued to observe the other person's expression and told himself the changes in the other person's expression... After a brief dizziness, he felt as if he had returned to normal. But the engineer opposite him began to sit a little unsteadily and shook a few times.
Next, he closed his eyes and fell onto the bed.
Eisen got up and went to check. The engineer seemed to be asleep and soon snored slightly. He did not dare to touch him and just kept standing like this. At this time, Li Zhanxiong's voice came from the headset:
"What's wrong with him? Eisen!"
"He seems to be asleep, sleeping soundly." Eisen said, put on his sunglasses again, walked out of the ward and came to Li Zhanxiong. He consciously looked away and did not interact with Li Zhanxiong and the others.
"Did he talk to you? Or did he do anything?" Li Zhanxiong asked.
Eisen gave them a detailed description of his entire process inside.
"Sure enough, it has something to do with eye contact!" Li Zhanxiong said. "Then how do you feel now?"
"At that time, I had brief dizziness and tinnitus, and my head was still a little swollen, but I was fine soon."
"Are you intentionally not looking at us now?" Li Zhanxiong had noticed that Eisen had always turned his face to the side, looking at the posters in the aisle.
"..."
"Why didn't you listen to my dissuasion and take off your sunglasses?"
"I think that's the only way it's possible to try it."
"Do you know the consequences of taking off your sunglasses without permission?" Li Zhanxiong couldn't help but show anger on his face. He turned to the guard on the side and said, "Lock him up!" After that, he left.
Aisen lowered his head and followed the staff towards the other end of the aisle.
Gao Tianjun and Ding Yushi stood there, staring blankly at Aisen's back until he and the guard disappeared around the corner at the end of the aisle...
Aisen was put into a single ward. There was only one bed, a separate bathroom, a desk, an armchair and a single sofa. There was also a TV hanging on the wall. It looked like this ward
It is prepared for important patients.
After the guard locked the door and left, Aisen sat down on the sofa, took off his sunglasses, and closed his eyes, as if waiting for something quietly.
He was not sure whether the thing had entered his brain. He regretted his hasty decision just now. If the thing really controlled his consciousness, then he could not imagine how Li Zhanxiong and Gao Tianjun would deal with it when he also went crazy.
?Why would Yushi be afraid? However, without taking off her sunglasses and without visual interaction with the engineer, how could she let that thing "see" her?
The surroundings were so quiet! Apart from the whirring sound of the indoor air conditioner, nothing else could be heard. Eisen gradually entered his own world of meditation——
He first thought of the scene when he dreamed of Ai Bin. Although Ai Bin always appeared in front of him as an illusory image, his voice was still so clear and he could answer his questions, just like the two brothers.
It was as if he was talking in front of someone. Although he didn't understand what this phenomenon was, and even experts such as Ding Yushi, "601" and Professor Luo couldn't explain it, he was convinced that it was really happening! Furthermore, he began to believe that,
Between his own entity and Ai Bin's virtual body, he can still communicate through the transmission of ideas, and the transmission of ideas will not be limited by time and space.
"What exactly is an idea? Is it the carrier and expression of the human soul? Or is it something endowed by the Creator that is common to all things in the universe? Is the idea also a kind of existence? It is just inspired and transmitted by different species in different environments?" He thought in his mind.
With this question.
Eisen suddenly thought of the AI language chat model he had studied - it was something he came into contact with and became obsessed with when he was working as a market researcher in an investment company to coordinate a project. He found that the AI language chat model has super thinking awareness capabilities.
.It is both like an encyclopedia and a knowledgeable tutor, knowing almost everything. Its ability is entirely based on the extensive logic training conducted by its developers and providing it with massive amounts of information.
Data, scene patterns, statistical rules, etc. This is very similar to a person's growth, except that it takes a long process for a person to form his or her own subjective thinking and consciousness from beginning to understand the world, accumulating knowledge to understanding the world.
However, no matter how powerful AI is, it can only be an integration of existing human knowledge. It cannot answer things that humans have not seen and that have not yet reached scientific conclusions. Just like Aisen once asked AI "Ai Bin" in a chat
When asked "What is the phenomenon of the disappearance?", the AI can only answer options such as "death, kidnapping, or intentionally running away to avoid debts."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Eisen realized: If the "cloud body" also has thinking and consciousness, then should its thinking and consciousness also be based on its understanding of everything it comes into contact with?
Foundation?! Since it has wandered here from the distant universe, the things it has experienced will naturally be countless times larger than the solar system. However, the solar system is unfamiliar to it. The inconspicuous earth and the even more inconspicuous human beings are familiar with the "cloud body"
"It's also strange to us - its target is only the sun - it's like when people eat, they only stare at the dishes on the plate, and no one pays attention to the small droplets of oil on the edge of the plate.
"Since the 'cloud' wanders from one star to another in order to obtain survival energy, then it may not have the existence of the earth and humans at all in its consciousness, because the earth and humans are completely unfamiliar to it.
’…this is exactly its shortcoming!”
The tinnitus came again, accompanied by severe swelling and pain in the brain. All the furniture in the ward began to slowly twist and deform...
"Have you started?" He looked at the electronic clock on the wall with difficulty. Only 30 minutes had passed. He felt that although his consciousness was still awake, it was already a bit sluggish.
The tinnitus became more and more severe, and there was a continuous scream. Everything around me seemed to be twisted into twists, and was being twisted and torn apart...
He tried his best to control his consciousness and make himself believe that what he saw before him was just an illusion.
"Where are you from?" he asked in his mind, his body already slumped on the sofa.
Instantly, a nebula-like scene flashed before his eyes, extremely beautiful! He felt as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it... This consciousness only stayed in his brain for less than a second before dissipating.
"Your place is huge and beautiful! It must be very far there..." Aisen wanted to continue the exchange, but suddenly felt an explosion in his head. He yelled and fell to the ground.
Before he lost consciousness, he seemed to see that everything in the room had been torn to pieces, and finally turned into dust floating in the air, spinning rapidly around him...
