Chapter 775: First Stop, McGovern

Ever since he decided to let Jeanne decide "where we go," Zuo Xiangshan has indeed not made a decision on this issue.

The two people...or two consciousnesses sharing the same brain, embarked on a journey together, starting to find a way to save themselves and find out the mastermind behind the scenes.

The first objects of Jeanne's investigation were the doctors and logistics managers in the training camp.

The latter are often ordinary officers and are not easy to investigate. But those doctors are different. If you want to be a responsible medical director, you must at least be an official knight. The formal knights are awarded the coat of arms of the Scientific Research Knight. Each coat of arms has a grade on the official website of the temple, which is open to the public and can be checked. Their inheritance is basically transparent.

The medical director of the training camp was once an official knight and trained on Mars. According to his official resume, due to his limited talent, he withdrew from the ranks of scientific research knights and became an exclusive researcher under the kings. However, the doctors he trained can still enjoy the status of "Scientific Research Knight Apprentice".

In the official internal documents, the medical director died in the "Lunar Training Camp Rebellion" - yes, under the official caliber, the training camp tragedy was defined as "a group of Rangers who were exposed to the memories of the Valkyrie." He had evil intentions and planned a major rebellion, but was finally discovered by King Agni in advance and subdued him preemptively."

Unfortunately, the medical director died in this rebellion.

Jeanne couldn't remember if this was true. During that battle, she was knocked unconscious by the shock wave. After that, Zhu Xiangshan took over her body movements for the first time.

Jeanne's first stop was the Knights of St. McGovern, who had trained the medical director.

"The McGovern Knights..." Zhu Xiangshan thought about this for a long time, "If this 'McGovern' is the 'McGovern' I know... the master-disciple inheritance sequence has been completely preserved until now. It's really a long time. Ah... after so many years of accumulation, having a title with the word 'saint' is really... no problem. "

Jeanne was puzzled. She is a ranger with a humble background. She only showed talent in martial arts in the martial arts gym in the satellite city, so she was admitted to the ranger training camp for training when she was a teenager. This knowledge storage device was indeed installed in her head, but she didn't really care.

"This used to be the name of a research institute. I have a friend who was a knight here." Xiang Shan said, "Besides, coming here might actually be a good choice."

"Um?"

"Didn't I tell you before that what supports my consciousness is not a network of neurons, but a brand new form of nerve cells. This special differentiation result should be the result of genetic modification plus controlled expression. But with From the perspective of this era, these are mature technologies. The mastermind behind the scenes is definitely not trying to verify these technologies. There is no need to use the memory of a professional thug like me to verify these technologies." Xiang Shan said: "They might be. In verifying... the topic of 'how structures other than neuronal networks can be used to carry consciousness'."

The currently known structures capable of carrying human consciousness are only neuronal networks. Computer-simulated neuron network models are currently unable to carry complete human consciousness. Some more advanced functions, such as "creating concepts" and "advanced mathematics", cannot be truly reproduced by computers and can only rely on stacking to catch up with the human brain.

But can human consciousness, or higher consciousness similar to humans, only exist within neuron networks?

For Xiangshan, he hopes the answer to this question is no.

Not just neurons, not just logic circuits. Steel, chemicals...anything should be able to carry human consciousness as long as it is complex to a certain extent.

However, humans have not yet grasped the structure that determines "the reason why consciousness is consciousness" - it exists in the brain, but humans have not yet understood it, let alone abstracted it.

"This is probably their purpose." Zhu Xiangshan said, "The artificial neurons installed on you are to copy the sensory information preprocessed by the high-level cortex and guide it to your low-level functional areas. For you, For warriors in the realm, it is temporarily idle. This 'idle part' will be induced into this kind of specious 'neuron-like' cells after being treated with drugs. These cells will then process the information from the artificial circuit. Build a me directly deep in your brain.”

"These artificial neurons will only turn on when you come into contact with Wu Zu's memory...your cerebral cortex will chew up the huge sensory memory and feed it to me. These mutated neuron-like cells have some characteristics of neurons. Those The input of electrical signals will cause the neuron-like cells to organize in an orderly manner.”

Jeanne was a little confused: "Why did I choose you?"

"Besides Xiangshan, whose memory will you read for a long time?" Zhu Xiangshan spread his hands: "And Xiangshan is indeed a special individual - humans believe that he really has the ability to resurrect. So he is really better than others. Easier to resurrect."

"Is this scientific..."

"Many physiological phenomena involving 'consciousness' are indeed whether the subject believes in them or not."

While standing near the McGovern Knights' station, Jeanne suddenly remembered something: "Wait a minute, old man. In this situation, no matter what I choose, will you say, 'This decision is wise'?"

"How is that possible?" Zhu Xiangshan sneered.

But it turns out that this step was indeed the right one.

While preparing safe houses, supply stations and hiding places near the headquarters of the McGovern Paladin, Jeanna and Lu Xiangshan came into contact with a martial arts force of unknown origin.

There are several powerful warriors of unknown origin living and wandering nearby.

"From the perspective of their mental outlook, they really don't look like martial arts heroes."

Jeanna was very suspicious: "You know it again?"

"This is an application of profound internal skills. You will know when you reach a certain level."

Although Xiangshan said that if Huandan enzyme is used on both parties at the same time, Lu Xiangshan's own internal skills will become stronger and stronger, gradually surpassing Jeanna. But Jeanna cannot stop practicing internal skills.

Huandan enzyme, which reverses the life cycle of nerve cells, is the only drug that can slow down the spread and deterioration of Lu Xiangshan.

Moreover, if Jeanna wants to survive the pursuit of the protector, internal skills are indispensable.

She also knows that Lu Xiangshan is more in line with Xiangshan's memory. Some of the "personal experience of internal skills" and "way of looking at technology" hidden in it can be absorbed by Lu Xiangshan without obstacles, but she is separated from him by a layer. Xiangshan's internal strength must be improving faster than hers.

This is a poison to quench thirst.

But she has to accept it.

It turns out that this is indeed necessary.

Outside the McGovern Knights, Jeanna was attacked by those mysterious warriors.

If Xiangshan's internal strength had not worked wonders in the city, Jeanna would definitely die.
