Chapter 168 Neuro-Mechanical Technology (8000, please subscribe, monthly ticket!)

"Soon!" He Xingzhou said, "We humans will soon regain control of Blue Star completely!"

What humans lack now is only time. As long as there are enough air carriers or giant mechas, even planetary behemoths can only die in the face of them!

As for the Zerg of planetary dominance? He Xingzhou believes that on the Blue Star, they have no chance to evolve to that point!

"Let's talk about it at that time!" Da Bai finished the rest of his lunch and fell asleep again.

...

In the Pacific Ocean, two nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets of the Blue Star Alliance are heading to the waters where the aircraft carrier is located.

The air carrier is about to return to the dock for maintenance, and the marine troop will take over here and transport the body of the three-headed dragon back.

Around the sideline, the Xuanwu troops are also quickly repairing the defense line and cleaning up the Zerg.

In this battle, the Blue Star Alliance completely made a name for itself. Ordinary insect kings would not dare to violate the Blue Star Alliance again.

The planetary beasts have their own plans, and they have not yet shot against humans. They speed up the annexation of the same clan, and in various continents and oceans, the Zerg are fighting fiercely.

All over the world, all human beings are asking for the blessing of the Blue Star Alliance.

...

The Blue Star Alliance has obtained an extremely rare period of development. Everyone knows that this period of peace will end at any time!

When it will end depends on when the planetary behemoths decide to attack humans or when humans attack them.

Human beings are hurrying to build new weapons, a new air carrier, and the first giant mecha of human beings, which are being manufactured!

...

In the capital, He Xingzhou's residence.

Xu Zhilan was cooking in the kitchen, and Ding Yue was installing a new holographic simulation cabin at home.

And He Xingzhou's younger sister, He Mengyao, is complaining to her brother.

"Brother, I'm really attentive..." She pouted and pointed to the pile of materials in front of her, "The seniors are taking care of me too much! I've been reading these learning materials day and night, and I don't even know them. When are you going to see~”

"The seniors in the research group treat me like you, thinking that I can also remember them, and let me read them within a week. Even if I don't sleep, I can't remember so many things! Woohoo, I'm so difficult!"

After entering the research institute, He Mengyao's pressure suddenly increased several times. Because of the Xuanwu plan, everyone had to spend all their time studying and researching.

"Brother, how did you remember so many things?" she asked curiously.

He Xingzhou smiled and said, "It's natural, you can see it at a glance."

"Ah ah ah! I'm sour, it's all born by a mother, why do you have such a good brain?" He Mengyao couldn't help complaining, "My teacher has said that it is impossible for one person to learn so many things!"

"Look, human science and technology are developing so fast now, just to finish the knowledge in this field, you have to learn to be fifty or sixty years old!"

"To become an expert, you have to learn at the age of 80 or 90. At this age, one's life expectancy is less than a few years, and memory and thinking also begin to decline. A person spends a lifetime and finally becomes a top expert, and his ability begins to decline. , One after another, isn't the technology of mankind stagnant?"

"So we need to improve the ability of the human brain, and also improve the lifespan of people." He Xingzhou said, "This is also one of the research contents of the Xuanwu Project, and it is also the key to the Blue Star Alliance going into space!"

"Brother, can you do anything?" He Mengyao looked at him eagerly.

"It's enough to study the Zerg. The lifespan of the advanced Zerg is thousands or tens of thousands of years!" He Xingzhou said, according to their research on the Zerg, the lifespan of these advanced Zerg is extremely long.

According to speculation, the lifespan of planetary giants can be as long as tens of thousands of years!

In terms of human thinking, it is difficult to understand such a long lifespan, which is equivalent to the existence of a god.

But on the scale of the universe, this kind of lifespan is very normal!

Even at the speed of light, it would take a year to leave the solar system, and the closest star to the solar system, Proxima Centauri, is 4.22 light-years away.

If it takes a few years for a civilization to go back and forth to the nearest star system, how can it become an advanced civilization? Wouldn't it take generations of lives to go to further stellar systems to develop and mine resources?

During such a long space voyage, the knowledge and technology of this civilization may not only not progress, but also decline due to the death of high-level talents!

Therefore, the average lifespan of advanced civilizations will be very long, so that knowledge can be passed on and technology can be developed to the extreme!

"Then don't we want to become old monsters?" He Mengyao thought for a while and said.

"At that time, the social order, laws and morals of human civilization will be rewritten!" He Xingzhou said.

"It's too far!" He Mengyao said while holding his arm, "Brother, is there any good way for me to solve the trouble now?"

He Xingzhou thought for a while and said, "Our neuromechanical research group is developing a quantum chip for the human brain. When a quantum chip is implanted in the brain, humans will have the same computing speed and information storage capacity as a quantum computer!"

"Hey, aren't we turning into robots? What if we get a virus?" He Mengyao asked.

"Of course, a brain chip protection system has to be designed, just like a computer's firewall." He Xingzhou said.

"In addition to this, there is a biochip, which uses biological macromolecules to build a chip. This implantation is simpler. It only needs to be connected to the human nervous system, and it has the same effect as a quantum chip."

"Biochip? I can accept this!" He Mengyao said.

"Then let me ask, Academician Song said a few days ago that there have been some breakthroughs in biochip technology." He Xingzhou sent a message to Song Jinghong to ask.

Song Jinghong quickly replied to the message: "You asked just at the right time. We have made a simple biological chip by imitating the Zerg biological organization. We are testing and improving it. You can come and have a look if you are interested."

"Okay, then let's go in two hours!" He Xingzhou replied.

"Is there really a biochip?" He Mengyao was amazed. Ordinary people have no way of knowing about these scientific and technological research projects.

"Of course, we have been researching biochips for five or six years!" He Xingzhou said, "It's just not as good as the quantum computer I said."

"It's time to eat!" Xu Zhilan greeted while wrapping her kitchen skirt, bringing the food to the table.

"It's so fragrant! Hee hee, I can eat another meal again. Sister Zhilan's cooking is better than my mother's!" He Mengyao went over to wash the dishes and serve the rice.

"When you are resting, you can come over to eat." Xu Zhilan was in a good mood.

"Then I'll come here every day!" He Mengyao said. Although her research institute is not nearby, the traffic speed is now different from before.

In addition to electromagnetic vehicle traffic, the city has also joined the air traffic system.

The small flying vehicle, like the mech, is extremely fast, faster than the previous high-speed rail.

The super high-speed rail has also been gradually built along the Great Wall of Steel to all parts of the country, forming a super-high-speed transportation network.

Now no matter which city in China to another city, the traffic time will not exceed an hour!

In the future, the Blue Star Alliance also intends to build a planetary logistics system, which is a later story.

After eating, the group went to the Secret Biotechnology Research Institute in the suburbs of Beijing.

This is also a research institution related to Zerg biotechnology, which was originally built by Song Jinghong.

After years of development, it has become one of the largest biological research institutes in the country.

"Hello Professor Song!" He Mengyao greeted Song Jinghong obediently.

Song Jinghong smiled and said, "You are He Mengyao? You are very clever at first glance."

He Xingzhou asked, "Academician Song, where is your biochip research?"

"I was about to say this, come, let's watch together!" Song Jinghong took him to the laboratory.

On the bench, there is a small chip that can only be seen with an electron microscope.

"This is a protein macromolecule biochip!" Song Jinghong introduced, "We made it by imitating the Zerg biochip."

"It's assembled using protein microarrays that transmit and store information through biochemical reactions."

"This protein microarray chip can store more than 1TB of information and can be read by the human brain."

"So amazing?" He Mengyao asked curiously, "Professor Song, if we implant this protein chip, does it mean that the brain has 1TB of information directly, and this information is our memory, and we don't need any additional information? memory?"

"Yes, that's what it means!" Song Jinghong praised, "The little girl is indeed smart."

"Is it easy to implant? Will there be side effects?" He Mengyao became even more curious.

"Because it's a chip composed of biomolecules, it won't have any side effects on humans!" Song Jinghong said, "We've already done human experiments. We only need to perform a minimally invasive surgery on the surface of human skin and connect with human nerves. When the system is connected, the brain can read the information on the biochip."

"This is only the first generation of protein memory chips. Currently, the space for storing information is limited, and auxiliary calculations cannot be performed!"

"Next time, our plan is to continue to improve the information storage capacity of biochips, and to achieve the ability to assist human brain computing."

"At that time, it was not just a biological chip, but a biological computer!"

After hearing Song Jinghong's description, He Mengyao exclaimed, "The biological computer is too powerful. I often feel that my brain is not enough. If there is a biological computer, wouldn't everyone be a genius?"

"Our goal is to make everyone a genius!" Song Jinghong said with emotion, "Any Zerg has the potential to evolve into a higher Zerg, an insect king and a planetary beast! When they were born, they already knew countless numbers of them. Zerg biotechnology does not require a complex and long learning process."

"In comparison, we humans need years of time to learn knowledge and experience, and it is limited by each person's different talents, different levels of effort, and different education."

"If humans want to defeat the Zerg, everyone must have quantum chips or biochips. Compared with neuromechanical technology, I prefer biochips."

"Because of biochip technology, there are zerg creatures that can be used as a reference, and the direction is more clear."

He Xingzhou said: "Biochip technology is more difficult and difficult to manufacture. If we want to rapidly improve the strength of human beings, neuromechanical technology is also indispensable."

"That's not my specialty." Song Jinghong smiled.

Everyone took a closer look at the biochip. According to the assumption, the future biochip will develop in the direction of biological computer, and finally make a gene chip, which will be directly engraved in human genes.

In this way, the offspring of human beings will come with a biological computer as soon as they are born!

In the end, He Mengyao became a protein memory chip experiencer and performed a minimally invasive surgery to connect the memory chip to his own nerve endings.

"That's it?" He Mengyao looked at her smooth arm, she couldn't even see that her skin had been scratched just now.

"Okay!" said the chief surgeon, "This minimally invasive surgery can heal the wound within a day without any scars!"

"In this memory chip, all the information you need has been stored in it, you can try to think about it."

He Mengyao closed her eyes, thinking about the information she needed to remember before.

It turned out that the information that I hadn't memorized and the information that I hadn't read at all appeared clearly in my mind.

"I really thought about it! It feels like... like looking at a teleprompter!" He Mengyao said in surprise.

"The information that took me years to memorize is now memorized! It's even better than memorizing it. I remember it without even looking at it!"

Song Jinghong nodded and said, "The memory chip can only help you store information. The storage space is still too small. After our technology improves, you can come and replace it."

He Xingzhou said to Xu Zhilan and Ding Yue: "The biochip has not been widely promoted yet, you two can also have an operation if needed!"

Xu Zhilan thought for a while, and said, "I'll forget it. When it comes to implantation, I want to implant a quantum chip. It also has computing functions!"

Ding Yue agreed and said, "We are all soldiers. If quantum chips are implanted, it will be easier to operate weapons and equipment."

"That's right!" He Xingzhou thought, neuro-mechanical technology is now progressing faster, and directly implanting a quantum chip can have the computing power of a quantum computer, which is indeed a better choice for them.

...

"If the neuromechanical technology is greatly improved, the combat effectiveness of the human army will also be greatly improved! Instead of relying entirely on robots." Now that this issue has been involved, He Xingzhou went to the Neuromechanical Research Institute to ponder neuromechanical technology with the team.

Now humans have conquered two neural connection methods. One is the brain wave transceiver, which is Jiang Chan’s extension of the brain wave co-frequency technology. After wearing a brain wave induction helmet, he can read some brain wave information. translate.

If the wearer's brain is very resistant, the read success rate of this technology will be very low.

The second is brain-computer interface technology.

Brain-computer interface technology is also a technology that has achieved a major breakthrough in the study of Zerg, that is, converting mechanical electrical signals into bioelectrical signals, which are connected to the brain through neuro-mechanical devices.

This technology is still immature, and the current brain-computer interface can only send and receive some simple information.

"Academician He!" Hao Siqi, the head of the brain-computer interface research team in the institute, shook his hand cordially and said, "Welcome Academician He to our research group for guidance!"

"I've seen the progress, but now I'm stuck at the level of information exchange?" He Xingzhou asked.

"Yeah!" Hao Siqi said, "The human brain is very complex. We have deciphered most of the human information electrical signals, such as commonly used languages, words, emotions, etc."

"To convert this information into mechanical signals to quantum chips, or to convert mechanical information into bioelectrical information and transmit it to the cerebral cortex, we are still studying this process."

"I heard that Sunbird Biotechnology is good at this, and they have made mature brain-computer devices."

"We entrusted comrades in the intelligence department to obtain some incomplete equipment, and through their research, we have made great progress."

Sunbird Biotech not only researches chemical technology, but also researches technology that combines chemical and mechanical technology.

In many wars, some of their machines were lost on the battlefield and were acquired by comrades in the intelligence services.

"Let me see!" He Xingzhou has been paying attention to this Sunbird Biotechnology Company. He guessed that there are nine out of ten behind this company are Zerg or advanced civilization.

Different from normal Zerg Devouring Evolution, this company actually adopts the method of manufacturing biological and chemical weapons to expand its power, which is very strange.

Hao Siqi took him to the secret research room. In the experimental area, there was a middle-aged man lying on a special hospital bed.

His brain and the back of his spine are connected by several tubes, followed by a quantum computer.

"His name is Qiao Feiyu." Hao Siqi introduced, "He used to be a soldier of the Xuanwu Army. He was affected by Zerg toxins on the battlefield, his motor neurons were damaged, and his muscles were atrophied."

"The specific symptoms are similar to those of ALS. His brain is still intact, but his whole body is like a vegetative person. He can no longer stand or move, and it is very difficult to even lift his fingers."

"It's just a blink of an eye right now."

"His condition is very special. We suspect that it may be a Zerg gene virus. Our cell regeneration technology has no effect on him. The regenerated motor nerves will atrophy as well. So far, no biological treatment solution has been found."

"There are many patients like him! Zerg's genetic virus, biochemical virus and people affected by various factors are full of military hospitals!"

"Now we use a modified brain-computer interface to connect his brain to a quantum computer, and he is going online."

Hao Siqi shouted, "Qiao Feiyu, look who's here?"

While he was talking, a medical staff stepped forward and carefully helped Qiao Feiyu.

Qiao Feiyu's eyes can see things clearly, and he can see He Xingzhou at a glance.

He tried hard to speak, to move his fingers, but his body muscles were completely out of control. After that, he could only blink, and two lines of clear tears flowed from his eyes.

"Xuanwu unit, Qiao Feiyu, soldier of the 313th battalion of the Army, has seen Commander He!" This is the language synthesized by the computer reading his brain information.

He Xingzhou also saluted him and said, "Comrade Qiao Feiyu, thank you for your dedication to the country!"

Qiao Feiyu continued to speak through the computer: "Commander He, I never thought I would have a chance to see you! I participated in the battle to defend the Demon City, and later in the sea war."

"In the process of cleaning up the Zerg, I was poisoned, and now I have become a waste."

He Xingzhou said, "You are a hero, not a cripple!"

"Don't worry, we'll get you back on your feet!"

Qiao Feiyu asked, "Commander He, do I still have a chance to stand up?"

He Xingzhou nodded and said, "Aren't you able to talk to me through a computer now? We will create a smaller neuro-mechanical and mechanical prosthesis! At that time, you can use the prosthesis to stand up again."

Hearing He Xingzhou's words, Qiao Feiyu's heart was extremely excited, but he showed it very much, so he could only continue to use the computer to say: "Commander He, I am a wreck, willing to make the final contribution to the scientific research of the motherland. Experiment on me!"

He Xingzhou stayed here and continued to study neuromechanical technology.

...

In the past two months, the Blue Star Alliance has occupied the sites of the original insect kings and established a new safe area.

And all over the world, the annexation of the insect kings has accelerated several times!

The top ten insect kings basically hunted down or annexed the weak insect kings. Some insect kings are extremely murderous and want to kill all insect kings except themselves, such as the Nile insect king, the mana insect king, etc.; there are also a large number of insect kings who surrender, such as the Aura insect king, and many elementary insect kings are in order to save Life, go to seek refuge in it, which makes its power expand extremely fast.

And with the expansion of their power, the voice of erasing human civilization is also getting higher and higher on the Blue Star Zerg information network.

During this time, the manufacture of air carriers and giant mechas has not stopped.

...

At the Institute of Neuromechanics, He Xingzhou is using a robotic arm to operate a tiny quantum computer.

This quantum computer is about the size of a small human fingernail, it has super computing power, and a tiny nuclear battery.

Its electricity is supplied to the quantum computer, enough for the quantum computer to be used for more than 500 years!

These are nothing, they are easy to do.

The hardest part is the neural connector, which connects to the neural network of the human brain and converts biochemical information to electrical signals.

Neural connector, also called neural prosthesis! It includes sensory neural prostheses, motor neural prostheses, cognitive neural prostheses, and memory neural prostheses.

Cochlear implants and electronic tongues are the most basic neural prostheses.

What He Xingzhou wants to do is a prosthetic brain that integrates four neuroprosthetic functions! That is, the second brain of human beings, let it assist the human brain to think, remember, calculate, and control machinery.

"Consume 5 million units of energy to unlock sensory nerve prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Consume 2 million units of energy to unlock motor nerve prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Consume 4 million units of energy to unlock cognitive neuroprosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Consume 2 million units of energy to unlock memory neural prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Four types of neural prostheses are to be manufactured separately, and then a collective quantum brain is being made!" He Xingzhou thought as he began to design the neural prosthesis on the computer.

The quantum optical brain reminded: "If you develop a quantum brain, you can spend 10 million units of energy to unlock the brain auxiliary functions of the quantum optical brain."

"Brain assistive functions include information storage, reading, electrical signal perception, computing, and more."

He Xingzhou said: "The quantum optical brain itself is the top second brain? I have used the information storage and reading functions and computing power before, right?"

He Xingzhou has long thought that his memory ability, the speed of digesting information, the speed of thinking and calculation do not know how many times that of ordinary people, even a quantum computer may not be able to complete it.

But he did it, and there must be a reason for the quantum optical brain.

The quantum optical brain responded: "Yes, this time it is an advanced ability that allows you to connect electromagnetic signals and directly control mechanical devices."

"What about biochips and genetic modification?" He Xingzhou asked.

The quantum optical brain responded: "When you acquire the corresponding technology, the quantum optical brain can be directly modified accordingly. There is no need to perform human and genetic modification again."

"You finally showed the appearance you should have!" He Xingzhou said with emotion.

The development of neuroprosthesis technology has been rapidly advanced after the participation of He Xingzhou. Every few days, they get a new neuroprosthesis.

After another month, the research lab is already connecting four miniature neural prostheses, connecting it to a quantum computer, and creating an artificial brain!

...

Xuanwu Base, Xuanwu Military Hospital.

Here, there are a large number of wounded or sick soldiers, including some medical staff and scientific researchers.

With the rapid development of human medical technology, cancer, limb mutilation, or the need to replace organs are no longer medical problems.

New medical problems come from Zerg biological toxins, genetic viruses, etc.

These problems afflict people, some make people paralyzed, some make people atrophy, become vegetative, and some even make people mutate and become insect people!

Faced with these problems, even the top medical team is helpless!

In a special ward, a little soldier was wailing, "Please, let me die! I don't want to live anymore, let me die!"

"It's better to live like this than to die!"

He wanted to hit the wall, and the nurses quickly held him down to prevent him from self-harm.

The doctor in charge, Bao Yushan, took a deep breath and couldn't bear to look at him. This little soldier was called Sun Yi. During the war, he was infected with the genotoxin of the Zerg, and his nerves were atrophied. Starting from his legs, he could no longer feel his limbs. .

He can still speak now. According to this situation, after a month, his motor nerves, sensory nerves, etc. will atrophy, and he will become a conscious vegetative person.

"Sun Yi, don't get excited!" the nurse comforted. "The doctor is looking for a treatment plan. You can cooperate with the treatment with peace of mind and you will get better."

"Don't lie to me, I know!" Sun Yi's expression was painful, "I knew for a long time that if I got this poison, I would become a crippled person!"

"You can't move your whole body, you can only rely on nutrient solution to maintain your life. What's the point of living like that?"

"Don't waste resources for me, I'd rather die like this!"

On the beds around him, some of his fellow patients sighed deeply. Their illnesses are similar to Sun Yi's, and they will all lose their ability to be normal people in the near future.

There are people who are even more unlucky than them, who are directly brain-dead, and there is absolutely no way out.

"Sun Yi is right, it's better to die if we keep us alive!" Another patient said pessimistically, "It's very difficult for me to speak now, even if I bite my tongue, I don't feel it!"

"Doctor, can we really be saved?" The patients looked at Bao Yushan.

Bao Yushan didn't know how to answer, and no one knew when humans could solve the Zerg gene virus.

Even if it is solved, the nerve cells of these people have long been dead, and from a physiological point of view, it is almost impossible to stand up again.

She had to say: "Comrades, you have to believe that you can survive and get back on your feet. We have been working hard on how to overcome your disease!"

The faces of everyone became more and more ugly, and this kind of rhetoric could not comfort them.

Bao Yushan saw that a few people's eyes were already showing death! Once a patient gives up on their own, their condition will deteriorate faster, and they will even try to commit suicide when they are still active!

She had no choice but to release her big move and said, "There is a piece of news that the director told me not to tell, but now, I can tell you in advance!"

Everyone looked at him, and some people couldn't twist their necks, they could only prick up their ears to listen.

Bao Yushan said: "As mentioned above, Academician He Xingzhou has entered the Institute of Neuromechanics and is studying neuroprosthesis technology."

"Once this technology is successfully developed, the neuroprosthesis will be able to connect to your brain, and with our prosthetic technology, you will be able to stand up like normal people!"

"Neural prostheses can also feel the real sense of smell, touch, taste and other human nerve sensations! At that time, you will have a new life!"

"Commander He? Commander He is really researching this technology?" Sun Yi rekindled hope after hearing Bao Yushan's words.

"Yes, I won't lie to you about this. We also reported some research data to Academician He yesterday, including information on your symptoms and neurological manifestations, which Academician He has read." Bao Yushan said.

"That's great!" Sun Yi's face turned rosy, and he said, "If it is Academician He, then I believe he can do it!"

"We still have a chance to stand up!"

"That's right, Academician He can even manufacture an airborne mothership, and a neural prosthesis must be hard for him!" The surrounding patients seemed to have been beaten by chicken blood and suddenly cheered up.

"I believe Commander He, doctor, we will cooperate with your treatment, we have to wait until Commander He's new technology is born!"

"I'm suddenly full of motivation, neuroprosthesis and prosthetic technology, does that mean, we can be transformed? Can you transform me into a Terminator?"

"If I can install a nuclear power device or plasma weapon, do I have any humanoid combat weapons?"

"I love arc generators, isn't it cool with an electric whip? Just like Thor!"

These patients have completely lost their pessimism, and actually began to discuss with great interest how to transform their bodies.

Bao Yushan and other doctors and nurses were stunned. These people were dying just now, thinking about how to end their lives.

It's only been a few seconds, and I've already started to think about how to become a reformer!

"I'm really convinced! Is this the charm of a hot man? Just hearing a name is more effective than we do countless jobs!" The head nurse said with emotion.

"Academician He's name is comparable to magic medicine!" a doctor laughed.

"To be honest, I am also looking forward to it. The neural prosthesis is very difficult to overcome, but if it is Academician He, it should be successful soon!"

Bao Yushan said to everyone: "I have already said the matter. You have to receive treatment honestly. Academician He's research also takes time. With the treatment, you can wait!"

"Don't worry, Comrade Doctor, we will definitely wait until that time!" Sun Yi said loudly, "I want to be the first human being to be transformed!"

"I'm going to load up the plasma beam!"

"Brother, what's that? I heard that the military is researching giant mechas, which may be even more powerful than the sky carrier! Do you think, who will control the giant mechas? If we renovate them, won't we have an advantage over others?"

"Yeah, you reminded me, how do you learn how to operate a giant mecha?"

"I want to install a magnetic levitation and jet device for myself. In the future, as long as I can fly, I will never walk!"

In the ward, patients are looking forward to the future.
