Two red spheres floated on the crystal platform, with dark red light surging under the rough skin like connective skin, which made them look like some kind of weird lava lamps. There were some fluorescent lights suspended on each of the crystal platforms.
The crystal clusters, the light projected from the crystal clusters are scanning the flow of electrical signals in those spheres and performing some harmless simple stimulation on them.
Yzaks looked at this incredible and strange brain with great interest - strictly speaking, it is a part of the brain: "Why is it that after the eldest son withers, what is left behind is not the seed, but its brain?"
"Because its brain is the seed!" The data terminal seemed to suddenly discover something, and while shouting, it activated a series of holographic projections, which showed not only the eldest son samples in containers No. 1 and 2, but also the samples that everyone had seen before.
The remains of the eldest son brought back from Y'zaks' hometown, as well as part of the tentacle structure scanned on the surface of Tanagus, and a large number of pictures of strange tentacles and biological organs, which are the forms of the eldest son that have developed into different stages. They are completely dependent on
According to the simulation, "This machine has summarized the eldest sons discovered so far, and roughly sorted out their physiological structures to simulate the changes in the development process of this creature. We can regard the eldest sons on the wreckage of the giant ship as
Juvenile individuals, those on the planet Horleta are youths, and those on the planet Tanagus are adult individuals. By comparing these three stages, this machine has now made a surprising discovery: Perhaps the eldest son is at the beginning of his birth
They only have one 'brain nucleus', and as their size increases, they will give birth to other brains in the body. These brains rely on neural network connections to form a whole consciousness, which is the kind scanned in containers No. 1 and No. 2.
stage. But after reaching a certain stage of development, the eldest son should split, and the brain nucleus will take part of the body to separate from the main body and grow into a new individual... It may also be that only the brain nucleus leaves, because there are many inside this red ball.
Structures that have nothing to do with neural activity may develop into embryos. In short, the brain of the eldest son is a seed. Its reproduction method is extremely interesting. It is an extremely advanced life form, but it adopts a method similar to division when reproducing. Every
An offspring is an exact copy of it, identical from body to mind. They will develop separately only after the neural connections are severed. The sample on the planet Horleta should be in the middle of this stage, the old body.
After completing the division, the new body is giving birth to multiple brains. The eldest son who withered and died two hundred thousand years ago died at an early age, so there is only one eldest son on the spacecraft. There are only three brain nuclei..."
Hao Ren became more and more surprised as he listened. He couldn't help but interrupt: "So there are three eldest sons on the planet Horleta? Did they split?"
The number of eldest sons on the planet Horleta has always attracted people's attention, because after coming into contact with the eldest son from Yzaks' hometown, Hao Ren discovered that one original seed can only give birth to one individual, and the original seed created by the Creation Goddess
As an extremely sophisticated "detection machine", it is impossible for the seeds to not even have the ability to recognize each other. In other words, theoretically, a planet will not be landed by multiple initial seeds (this is a big waste).
So why are there three eldest sons on the planet Horleta?
Hao Ren always thought that there was something wrong with the original sowing, but now it seems that is not the case. It was the eldest son who split himself!
"Then why didn't the eldest son on the planet Tanagus split?" Lily jumped forward. "It has grown so big! It covers the entire planet!"
"This is still unclear," the data terminal said frankly. "This machine can only judge its physiological form based on actual data. But it cannot judge its judgment mechanism when taking various actions. Maybe the planet Tanagus is a special
It is a test site, so the eldest son here chooses to keep growing. It may be that Horleta is very special, which causes the eldest son there to split into three. The samples we have are still too few and lack comparison to make a conclusion.
"
"The issue of the reproduction of the eldest son can be put aside for now." Vivian suddenly waved her hand, "Let's talk about these two spheres. Can they create a projection of the Demon King's City through dreaming?"
"'Dreaming' is just a figurative term." The data terminal waved, "Maybe it's some kind of similar neural activity. The functions of these two brain nuclei are damaged, so they may be seriously affected by external stimulation. One of the brain nuclei is
When Demon King's City acted as a power source, a large amount of energy was extracted, but in the process, its 'senses' also spread throughout the city along with Demon King's City's energy network, and due to the existence of the city shield, its scanning of the city can be said to be
It was every detail. Then under a certain opportunity, it started to dream, and what it dreamed about was its 'new body', and the projection of the Demon King's City appeared. Do you still remember what you saw at the top of the atmosphere? That one
The phantom is what the Demon King's Castle looked like before it was sent to Irem. There was no land bridge next to the city, so it is an afterimage of memory."
Lily opened her mouth and let out a long "Oh", her ears drooped: "As a writer of novels, my imagination was defeated by a brick... I didn't expect so much!"
"This is not imagination, this is strict data collection and reasonable derivation!" The data terminal suddenly raised its tail, "This machine collected the electrical signal pattern of the red ball and compared the results of Sample No. 1 and Sample No. 2.
It was inferred after the neural structure!”
Hao Ren touched his chin and thought, and suddenly said: "If this is the brain nucleus of the eldest son... then do we have a chance to communicate with a sane eldest son?!"
"This machine is trying," the data terminal pointed its beam at the crystal clusters near the two spheres, "but all communication methods have failed so far. The brain core's response to external signals is very weak, and there is almost no logic. Forced read
It’s even worse: after the signal stimulation reaches a certain level, the stability of the brain nucleus begins to decline. Perhaps this was how it exploded when Elizabeth tested the first energy furnace.”
Hao Ren glanced at Elizabeth with a strange expression, thinking that this little girl was really brave back then, but now that he thought about it, she actually used her eldest son's brain to generate electricity and fly the entire Demon King's City for more than half a year! Just thinking about it made me sweat.
ah.
Even Yizhaks' shiny forehead was covered with sweat. He pressed his daughter's head hard: "It's good that nothing happened."
Elizabeth had no idea how scary her eldest son was, she just giggled while holding Doudou, and the baby fish in her arms also giggled.
Vivian shook her head helplessly: "These two really deserve the same name. You see, their ability to commit suicide is at the same level."
Lily looked at the two naughty children and then at the red ball, and finally sighed regretfully: "So these two brain nuclei are so damaged that they can't communicate... Can we treat them?"
"Several previous attempts to cultivate the original seeds and primitive organs have failed. The first batch of creations of the Creation Goddess are not ordinary life forms. If the goddess's divine information cannot be deciphered, there will be no way to artificially cultivate or repair these primitive life forms.
"The data terminal is also very regretful, "Currently we can only hope to let them repair themselves slowly. We can provide them with sufficient external nutrients - such as soaking them in source blood, but there is nothing else we can do."
"So now we can only let it sleep like this?" Vivian crossed her arms, "Or see if it will dream again? Maybe its dreams can reveal something."
At this time, Lily didn't know what she was thinking. She suddenly came up and carefully patted the surface of one of the red balls: "You will be paralyzed if you sleep, but you will be happy when you get up!"
Everyone: "..."
"It doesn't work," Lily ran back to Hao Ren in small steps, "How about you go up and give it a try?"
Vivian moved aside to keep her distance from this idiot: "Is it okay for you to forcefully commit a crime like this?"
"I said let the landlord see if he can read the thoughts of this brain core. Doesn't he occasionally connect to the consciousness of these strange creatures? This is how the giant brain was connected in the first place." Lily rolled her eyes, "You can't
Just because I'm a husky prejudices everything I do..."
This girl doesn't even have to blink when she openly admits her identity as a Husky.
Hao Ren, on the other hand, felt that Lily's suggestion seemed reasonable, so he took a step forward: "Then... just give it a try." (To be continued)
