Chapter 39 Brain in a vat

Something from that place?

The senior engineer thought of that failed scientific research exploration and frowned.

"What is it?"

Huang Yuanli shook her head in pain.

"I can feel its existence. It is huge and painful. It is like a mindless person, a ghost without a body."

"You contacted me through it just now, right?" Gao Gong said with a thought in his heart.

"Yes, I found the professor. The professor did not reject me at first, but let me drink a cup of coffee. After that, I kept having hallucinations, but before this hallucination was only intermittent, and I didn't take it seriously. ."

"And when our resistance failed and I was whipped, the hallucination became more and more serious. When I was completely unconscious, I found that I seemed to have become a part of it."

"I can 'see' a lot of things that I couldn't see before, the thoughts of the electronic bee, the mood of the mechanical dog, and even the thoughts of this forest. It is also angry and in pain."

The senior engineer did not speak, but glanced at the system panel.

[You are controlled by 'telepathy', your vision is cut off, and you enter a blind state]

Telepathy (Mechanical) (Elementary): A superpower that can sense the human heart, and it can sense more than just the 'human heart'.

"It seems that what the professor gave you to drink should be some kind of 'super-sense medicine', and luckily you are awakened; in the radiation zone, telepathy on the machine side is a very useful ability."

Huang Yuanli was stunned: "Super-sense medicine, what is that? Wait, you mean, I have telepathy?"

"Yes, but not everyone can awaken after taking the 'super-sense drug'. This drug can enhance your experience beyond the five senses; in the process, your genes may produce certain antibodies due to this experience. , the nature of this antibody is the nature of your superpower."

"Of course, most 'super-sense drugs' are not safe, and the possibility of death from taking drugs is much greater than awakening superpowers; you should be grateful to that 'thing'. According to my guess, it helped you share some of the pressure." .”

Huang Yuanli was stunned for a long time, then suddenly became furious: "The professor actually wants to kill me! I know there are no good people wearing glasses!"

The senior engineer ignored him, returned the same way, found the original entrance, and climbed up the straight ladder again. The pupils of the two of them became enlarged almost at the same time.

I saw that the originally empty cable tribe was covered by a strange white brain matter. The brain matter slowly wriggled along the roof, walls, and tree holes. Thick nerve fibers drilled out of the brain matter and took root.

Even though the senior engineer had taken off his 'amplifier', he still felt a strong noise coming from all directions.

"ah!"

Huang Yuanli suddenly covered her ears, her eyes were red and she was in extreme pain.

"Breathe deeply, breathe deeply, learn to control your abilities, try to accept it, operate it, don't resist it, remember, this is part of you!"

Under the guidance of the senior engineer, Huang Yuanli's face gradually calmed down, and a deep luster flashed through her eyelids as she blinked.

The senior engineer breathed a sigh of relief. Superman civilization is a relatively large branch among carbon-based civilizations, but it is very small on the Mecha Star. If Huang Yuanli cannot control her abilities, it will become very troublesome.

Looking at the 'brain' covering the top of his feet, the senior engineer suddenly pulled out the 'red unicorn' and cut off the pink nerve bundle in it.

The other party's information was also displayed on the panel.

[You cause 1 point of damage to ‘Brain in a Vat’]

[You enter the realm of the ‘brain in a vat’, and your brain function enters a state of confusion]

Brain in a vat!

Gao Gong didn't expect it to be this thing. He thought it was some kind of pre-war bionic machine at most.

This thing is at least level 40, and it is half biological and half information monster, making it extremely difficult to kill.

In particular, its mental attack is a 'real damage', which ignores all defenses. As long as it is hit by AOE, Gao Gong probably won't be able to resist it twice.

The senior engineer looked around and saw that not only the Cable Tribe, but all the mutated trees he saw had begun to secrete artificial proteins. These proteins were the raw materials of 'brain plasma'.

‘I guess, Professor Han is not planning to put the entire cable tribe into the brain in the vat, right? EVA has seen too much. ’

However, it is obvious that the brain in the vat is still in a developmental state, and the previous series of hallucinations are only the result of Huang Yuanli's operations in his dream.

"I, I 'saw' it," Huang Yuanli gritted her teeth: "The professor is in contact with this thing. He wants to absorb it, but it is resisting, and the professor is also in pain."

The senior engineer took a deep breath, turned his head and looked around, and saw a large amount of 'brain' going down the sewer.

This thing reproduces at an alarming rate.

"Let's go, stop it, you lead the way!"

Gao Gong clamped Huang Yuanli's hand, and Huang Yuanli pointed her finger in the direction of the mountain road.

"It's at the Great Elder's temple, and the professor's laboratory is also in that direction."

The senior engineer ran wildly along the mountain road, and at the same time, a 'ding' sound came from the system panel.

[Mission: Bionic Brain]

Difficulty: Hard

Mission briefing: Professor Han anticipated the coming of the beast tide, but he had no means to restrain the beast tide. In desperation, he chose the most extreme method to release the sealed scientific research product. He was going to absorb it and turn it into a monster. The master of consciousness.

Mission goal: Kill Professor Han/Kill the Brain in the Vat/Rescue Professor Han

Mission reward: experience +4500, Cable Tribe favorability +500, clues to bionic technology

The senior engineer was refreshed. It turned out to be "bionic technology". You must know that a professional knowledge chain contains at least 8 to 10 full-level professional knowledge.

And more importantly, in the future biological transformation, if Gao Gong still wants to maintain his human form, he will also be unable to do without the help of 'bionic technology'.

However, they didn't run very far when the ground shook. In their eyes, the ground cracked and high-rise buildings rose from the ground. The dim yellow radiation atmosphere was replaced by a clear sky. In the sky, maglev cars appeared one after another. Flying in orbit, on the ground, living animals are jumping around, and ordinary people are walking, chatting, sitting on benches and basking in the sun.

"What is this?" Huang Yuanli murmured.

"This is a city from the old civilization era, and it is also the memory in Professor Han's mind. We are being pulled into Professor Han's mind."

Gao Gong shook his head and said: "I guess what Professor Han wants to do is to let you live here."

"We living people are living in his head?" Huang Yuanli said blankly.

"Yeah," Gao Gong shrugged, "This is much better than the cruel reality. It's a great idea."

Huang Yuanli scanned the beautiful surroundings, then took a deep breath. The fragrance of flowers and plants entered her mouth and nose, making people feel refreshed.

She suddenly raised her head and cursed:

"What a hammer!"

"I don't want to be a part of this old man!"

"Use your ability to sense. You should have some kind of connection with this brain in the vat."

Gao Gong narrowed his eyes and said, "If my guess is correct, you are the second option in Professor Han's plan."

"If he fails, you are the next vessel."

"That old madman!"

Huang Yuanli gritted her teeth and stretched out a hand to feel the feeling of sleeping. That hazy, yet transparent and clean feeling emerged again.

The senior engineer looked around and saw countless flesh and blood emerging from the tall buildings, covering them, and then sinking.

Everyone froze, and the next moment, everyone melted like burning candles.

Huang Yuanli closed her eyes tightly and walked in one direction. Gao Gong held the handle of the knife and followed closely.

However, while walking, Huang Yuanli disappeared, and Gao Gong came to a simulated battlefield for training.

"Sorry, I'm not a professional. There is only one VR room for relaxation in the experimental base. I don't know if the simulation is similar."

At some point a young man in a white coat appeared next to the senior engineer. The young man smiled sheepishly.

"It's already very similar. It's exactly the same as the training base of the Security Corps."

Stepping on the plastic track with his toes, the senior engineer turned his head and looked at the younger version of 'Professor Han'.

"You deliberately separated me from Huang Yuanli. I'm afraid your condition is not very good, Professor."

Professor Han nodded, "The base has been closed for almost fifty years. I thought that thing was dead and fusion should not be difficult, but I didn't expect that it is still alive and has such a strong appetite."

Gao Gong said with great interest: "So, you and it are now in a state of devouring each other."

Professor Han said: "Yes, I have made some arrangements, but this first-mover advantage is constantly being consumed."

"Fortunately, Lily's awakening was successful. The only chance now is for me to die with it, and then let Lily become the new 'brain carrier'."

The senior engineer looked up at the closed ceiling, "Do you think she will agree?"

Above the sky, Huang Yuanli stepped on the clouds and said excitedly: "Look, we are in the sky."

Huang Yuanli turned her head, only to find that the senior engineer had disappeared at some point, and was replaced by a dying old man.

Her expression suddenly became complicated.

"Lily," Professor Han showed a smile, lowered his head and said, "Look, how beautiful this city is under our feet."

"No matter how beautiful she is, she's still fake," Huang Yuanli said coldly, "I don't want to be someone else's brain, and I don't want others to be my brain."

"Yes, actually I don't want to either," Professor Han nodded in agreement.

"So what should we do now?"

Professor Han lowered his head, and the two of them suddenly returned to the scavenging city.

In the city in front of the two of them, a war of tens of thousands of mechanical beasts was starting in the city.

Countless red lanterns floated in the air, and the blood-red carpet spread crazily, submerging buildings, elevated highways, and highways, and burrowing into various mechanical and biological beasts.

And in front, the sound of explosions, radiant energy, and high-temperature smoke were like a small nuclear bomb that kept exploding, exuding terrifying power.

Under its power, mature metal nests were destroyed and razed to the ground.

Huang Yuanli looked at this scene dumbfounded.

She knows this monster!
