About my super space sniper battle

[Memory uploading is not the limit of technology for brain exploration.There is also a deeper, more secretive brain function that no one has been able to decipher. 】

What kind of game is this?Xu Shihui fell into deep thought.Is Huo Dongban looking at me right now?As the designer of the game, he should know that I am desperately releasing love in the game right now?What is he thinking now?Xu Shihui put his hands on his knees, his body stiffened involuntarily.

He convinced himself that this was the setting of the game; but it was obvious that the characters in the game had a deep affection for Prince Ban, and for Xu Shihui, who had just met Prince Ban for the second time, this feeling was really a bit embarrassing.

Ah, it's all the programmer's fault for using his own face to make games!Xu Shihui thought.

Prince Ban in the game obviously didn't notice Xu Shihui's twisted thoughts.He lightly raised a hand, and Youying immediately opened her mouth to reveal her sharp fangs, making a hissing and whimpering sound.A cloud of pitch-black mist appeared in Youying's mouth, and it grew bigger and bigger, blowing up gusts of wind.The vegetation around Xu Shihui moved with the wind, he was almost unable to stand, and the wind and sand rolled up made him almost unable to open his eyes.Youying puffed up her chest, and some flying sand and rocks had already been sucked into the black hole-like cloud it created. With Prince Ban's wave of her arms, Youying uprooted a big tree beside the camp and swallowed it instantly. In a black hole of his own making.

"Your Highness, please stop the playback." Star Falcon's voice sounded in Prince Ban's personal terminal.

"What's the matter, is there a problem?" Prince Ban became nervous.

"I don't know much about the situation, Your Highness. But what Marshal Scott said was that E001 has empathized." Star Falcon said in a serious tone, "Your Highness, please stop playback immediately."

Prince Ban hung one hand behind his ear, still hesitating.Star Falcon used the highest control authority of the Earth Bureau to forcibly cut off Xu Shihui's memory flashback.

"You are now on Huo Dongxing's timeline, and you can't call back your every move. Hurry up and explain to E001 that the game is malfunctioning, and send him back to the earth's timeline." The old king's anxious voice came from Prince Ban's ears Come.He has always been gentle, this time uncharacteristically. "You, go to the military headquarters immediately after the end. Also, don't act without authorization in the future."

What?Prince Ban was at a loss.Although I didn't know what was going on, I was taken aback by this seemingly serious situation.

Xu Shihui on the opposite side had already taken off his helmet.

"Something went wrong." Prince Ban hurriedly explained, "Sorry, our technology is not mature enough."

"I think it's already very good. Although I don't play games very much, I have never heard of this kind of experience. It's so real, it's hard to describe that kind..." Xu Shihui originally wanted to boast a few more words, but then Suddenly thinking of the protagonist's perspective on Prince Ban's strong emotions that came from nowhere and passed all the way to his mind, he was at a loss for words.

Xu Shihui chose to ignore the discussion on the scope of game development technology, and turned to the field he was familiar with—"You should really go to a venture capital company, this project will definitely get an angel round. Now I understand the eagerness to sell you when you came to the door You just need a leader in the capital market. If you are willing, I can contact the project manager of Lifeng Venture Capital to meet with you directly next Monday."

"Ah, that... is really great." It's a pity that Prince Ban's goal is not venture capital.Considering that the playback was interrupted because the king was furious for some reason, Prince Ban asked Xu Shihui cautiously: "Mr. Xu, will you come to try our game in the future?"

"The main reason is that we are still in the development stage and we need a lot of beta players." Prince Ban was afraid that he would not come, "But for some commercial secret considerations, we should try to limit the range of people who know this game. I think you already know more about it. We have finished this game, and we are a suitable candidate for internal testing..."

Xu Shihui hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Okay, I will try again when I have a chance." However, I don't really want to fall in love with you in the game—the second half of the sentence was undoubtedly swallowed by Xu Shihui.

*****

At this time, it has been two or three hours since the star falcon forcibly cut off the playback of the E001 memory fragment. Marshal Scott is still in the king's study, pacing up and down on the old floor in his elegant knee-high riding boots, a little bit impetuous.

According to the observation report of the Earth Bureau, after E001 returns to the earth timeline from the simulated apartment room, he acts as usual, and according to follow-up observations, he will disappear from the earth timeline again in the near future; and the specific disappearance scene is not known due to the time-space distortion involved. Obscure and difficult to observe-this involves an endlessly debated assumption among the experts of the Earth Bureau: when the Huodong Stars intervene in the Earth's timeline, they cannot see clearly about their own future on Earth.

After Prince Ban sent Xu Shihui out, he went straight to the military headquarters, where he would be able to use the name of the marshal to borrow an isolated paper file that cannot be digitized according to the confidentiality level; Document content is discussed in the space of data networking and presence data monitoring.After Prince Ban reads this file, he should come here non-stop.

This is a spacious and bright brown-toned circular room, where the old king's main indoor activities are basically carried out except for sleeping.On one side of the study room are tall floor-to-ceiling windows, decorated with colored glass and various mythical figures from Huo Dongxing's ancient legends.Sunlight slanted in through the glass painting, randomly distributing clusters of colorful spots on the thick wooden conference table; on one side of the conference table were scattered electronic screens, and on the other side were some unfinished manuscripts of the king.On the other wall of the study room is a sky-reaching bookshelf that covers the sky and the sun, storing the vast ancient books that the old king collected from Huo Dongxing and Ether Stars, and even some Earth reading materials that he entrusted the Earth Bureau to purchase.From "Jin Ping Mei", "Macbeth", "When the Stars of Mankind Shine" to "Crossing the Galaxy: A Summary of 3000 Years of Space Development", the old king has studied a lot and is thirsty for knowledge.

As a token king, he felt that his recent days were living too close to the center of power.

Since knowing a certain shocking secret, the formation of the Earth Bureau was only a matter of ten years ago.Ten years ago, he was just a street stall literature lover who occasionally published some third-rate novels. Except for the title of king, fief and royal allowance, he was no different from ordinary citizens.Huo Dongxing's imperial power had been completely emptied by the military government long before he was born, and since he succeeded to the throne, he has accepted that he is insignificant in the political field.

More than 100 years ago, the starship team of the ether planet passed through the wormhole with a thunderous force, and ruthlessly bombed the spaceport between Huodong star and Moer Alpha star. The entire Huodong planet trembled in front of the overwhelming technological advantages of the ethers.He lost his legs in this cruel interstellar colonial war—the process was not so heroic, just because he was the nominal supreme head of Huo Dongxing, and was captured and slaughtered mercilessly by the enemy like a baby.Although the current Huo Dongxing was barely able to protect himself under the scrutiny of the Ether Star, he had completely lost interest in participating in the power struggle.Even, out of anxiety about occupying public resources, he also had the idea of ​​abolishing the monarchy and abdicating the throne voluntarily. It was the meager royalties that could not make ends meet that dispelled his crazy idea.

Today, he is even more involuntary.

Why can't people feel at ease as a constitutional monarchy who reads and writes archaeology all day long?The old king sighed silently, really wanting to abdicate.

A few minutes later, the king's restless prince arrived, with a thick paper document under his arm, and his expression was cloudy.

"Okay, okay, let's sit down and talk." The old king waved his hand.

Prince Ban spread out the folder, and there was a thick stack of materials, all of which were secret documents about "memory uploading and empathy research" just obtained from the military headquarters.

"Oh, I broke a shocking secret today." Prince Ban sneered, and cast his unfriendly eyes on Marshal Scott.

The noble commander-in-chief of the three armies was furious. As Huo Dongxing's absolute core of power, perhaps only Prince Ban on the entire planet dared to talk to him like that.

A large stack of confidential documents in Prince Ban's hands recorded in detail the military research history of Huo Dongxing's memory uploading technology.

Huo Dongxing's memory uploading technology was developed in the generation before Prince Ban was born, and it has been relatively mature so far.In the last generation, Huo Dongxing Biotechnology broke through the artificial reading of brain neuron synapses, and successfully drew a map of brain neuron connections, providing theoretical support for the sharing and transplantation of human brain memories.

As the functions of widely used implanted personal terminals become more and more powerful, it is no surprise that Huo Dongxing people extract specific personal memory fragments from their brains at any time, and share them on social networks to enjoy with relatives and friends just like sharing photos in the old days. things.In fact, due to the unmodifiable characteristics of human brain memory, memories extracted through personal terminals have been widely used in judicial, news and other fields.

However, uploading memories is not the limit of technology's exploration of the brain.There is also a deeper, more secretive brain function that no one has been able to decipher.

--Thought.

People can understand what other people have seen and heard in the past from the sharing of other people's memories, but they can never understand what other people's inner feelings are, what they are thinking about, and even what they plan for the future when they experience these events; This hypothetical situation is called memory empathy.

But someone discovered that under the current technology, there is really a way to realize memory empathy-as long as they have the same DNA, it is possible.Huo Dongxing has almost no identical twins born due to a strange genetic law. This genetic characteristic directly delayed the discovery of the memory empathy pathway.However, this secret pathway was finally discovered by the military. At first, this phenomenon was discovered in the recovery of some amnesia patients who suffered brain trauma; It simply recalls the memory and thinking of the patient himself.Later, the claws of science extended to cloned mice and cloned monkeys; studies have shown that two creatures with the same DNA can indeed achieve memory empathy.

DNA, in the form of unpredictable nucleic acid-modified segments, controls how neurotransmitters are regulated.Different nucleic acid modification fragments are like keys engraved in genes, which directly affect the way memory is stored in the human brain, that is, the way of thinking when memory is generated.This is the theoretical basis for memory empathy for individuals with the same DNA.

So far, the pace of scientific exploration has not been satisfied.

Theoretically speaking, if a person is directly cloned, the clone can have memory and empathy with the cloned person.But on the one hand, the human cloning project is strictly prohibited in Huo Dongxing for obvious ethical reasons; on the other hand, the brain development of minors has not yet been completed, so they cannot be implanted into personal terminals, and the development process of clones from embryos to adults is too long , Undoubtedly, the realization value of this empathy approach is extremely low.

The military began to imagine that, when most organ cloning technologies have matured, if a person's brain is directly cloned in a laboratory, the brain's DNA can fool the uploaded memory fragments and send this message to a virtual personal terminal. Thoughts contained in memory fragments?

——What a crazy and perverted experimental project.

Because the project is the highest level of confidentiality in the military, only the commander-in-chief and a few generals know about it. Prince Ban was not informed of the memory empathy pathway of the same DNA.Even Huo Dongxing's titular head of state only learned of the news a few hours ago.

Prince Ban felt angry and had a heart attack.
