The Crystal Nucleus Research Station is a comprehensive giant space station, functionally focused on scientific research and the containment of dangerous goods. In addition to the large container cabins used to accommodate the eldest son, there are several large laboratories on the lower floor of the space station that can be used for daily research. Work. The samples collected from the eldest son and the strange rags collected from other worlds can be scanned here—Hao Ren finally doesn't have to worry about the limited functions of the giant turtle rock platform's shipboard laboratory.
But what everyone is most satisfied with this place is its architectural style: the style of this building is different from the technology-side equipment that Hao Ren usually comes into contact with. Its main materials are crystal and a kind of warm and strange "metal". This includes the laboratory as well. Those light and elegant crystal clusters and curved metals are dizzying, and walking in the crystal nucleus research station is as pleasant as walking through an art museum. Hao Ren usually complained that Raven 12345 was unreliable, but this time he had to thank the goddess sister for blowing up the original building module: this new space station is at least much stronger than a coffin.
The two red balls were quickly sent to the laboratory, and everyone was studying what this thing was. Hao Ren followed Vivienne's advice and ordered a quick full-body scan of the live eldest son in containers No. 1 and No. 2, and now he is waiting for the results.
"By the way, what do you think this is?" Hao Ren waited to be bored, and started chatting with Vivian, "It also created the phantom of the Demon King's City—could it be the organ used by the eldest son to cast spells?"
Vivienne shook her head slightly, unconsciously tossing a little bat in her hand to relieve boredom. Those two spheres are suspended on the crystal imaging platform not far away, and there are several beams of light sweeping over the spheres, this is the detection equipment collecting the information of the spheres and the scanning progress of the eldest son for comparison. On the holographic projection in the center of the laboratory, the work progress of containers No. 1 and No. 2 is displayed: above that is the holographic image of the eldest son, which is becoming clearer and clearer.
After a while, the data terminal suddenly issued a whistle: "Found it!"
Hao Ren was overjoyed: "There really are?!"
The data terminal controls the holographic projection to enlarge and position the picture, presenting the details in the No. 1 container. The tentacles and tumors of the eldest son appear in the center of the screen, and the most striking thing among those intertwined biological tissues is the constantly pulsating dim red light. The data terminal pointed out a star-shaped structure between the red lights: "In this position - there is a thick connective skin here, the bioelectric current is strong, and there is a round ball hidden under it. It is exactly the same as the two red balls we have. In addition There is more than one such ball... "
The data terminal said, pulling the holographic screen farther away. As a result, seven or eight shining red dots appeared on the entire scanning screen. Those red dots were all such spherical organs, and they were not evenly distributed.
Lily scratched her head and looked at it for a while: "So one eldest son can grow so many balls? Then why did Elizabeth find three?"
"Because of malnutrition, don't forget that the eldest son of the old Wang family died of starvation," Hao Ren switched the screen back, looking curiously at the star-shaped tissue emitting a dim red light, surrounded by many thinner tentacles extending go out. It has been connected to the nearest tissue tumor, and those thinner tentacles are very light in color, obviously not of the same species as the tentacles used as weapons. And all the star tissue is wrapped in layers of other tentacles and thick skins, which shows that they are very critical things for the eldest son, "What do you think this looks like?"
"It's like some kind of center," the data terminal replied. "In addition, according to the recent test results, those gray-white tentacles are mostly connected to the medium-sized tissue tumor, and the medium-sized tissue tumor has been confirmed to be the ganglion of the eldest son."
Hao Ren stroked his chin and tried to expand his imagination. A thought suddenly popped up: "Wait! Do you think this is the brain of the eldest son?"
Lily looked at Hao Ren in horror: "Landlord, is there a ring above your brainy neck?"
"But it's very possible," Hao Ren shrugged. "This thing has already grown into such a curious shape. What's wrong with its strange thinking organs? You see, we have been looking for the brain of the eldest son before. But it turned out that there was nothing at all—but this thing obviously knows how to think, so its thinking organs should look a little strange. And anyway, this thing is connected to many ganglia, which must be related to thinking. "
"Very valuable conjecture," the data terminal actually affirmed Hao Ren's brain hole, "This kind of creature is too huge, it may be difficult for a single brain to direct the entire body, and the nutrition cannot keep up... So it uses Distributed brain architecture. But it needs to be tested first.”
Container No. 1 quickly received an instruction from the data terminal, and a light green thin potion was injected into the container. Then several clusters of bright luminous bodies adsorbed to several tentacles of the eldest son. Those tentacles trembled slightly, then returned to calm.
The control module of container one severed the connection between one of the star tissue and other surrounding organs. Then start to input analog signal to it.
"Maybe it's really the brain," the data terminal read the data transmitted back, and even it was a little surprised, "This is really a wonderful thing. The thinking process of the eldest son is actually completed by three completely different organizations. The ganglion, the red ball, and those gray-white nerve fibers, these three things are the brain, and they are scattered throughout the body."
Lily glanced at Hao Ren in amazement: "It's true! Landlord, your brain is still guided by precision?"
"Don't make trouble, it's called talent, it's different from someone like you who was reincarnated and didn't aim to become a bastard." Hao Ren rubbed Lily's head, then turned to look at the data terminal, "The last time we studied the ball in Demon King City How come you didn't see it?"
"I didn't think about it last time," the data terminal turned somersaults in the air, "Tsk tsk, this thing is really interesting... Well, I roughly understand the thinking process of the eldest son."
Hao Ren immediately pricked up his ears to listen to the data terminal's explanation.
"These spheres are the main thinking organs of the eldest son, responsible for 70% of the brain's functions, they can be called brain nuclei, there are several, and they are distributed in various places in the eldest son's body; those medium-sized tissue tumors, that is, ganglia , is something that enhances and accelerates the signal, and may also have a cache function, which is responsible for distributing the instructions from the brain nucleus to all parts of the body. Since the eldest son is too large, it must have this kind of secondary cache and brainwave amplifier to control My own body; those gray-white tentacles are not ordinary nerve fibers, they are actually the mutated forms of ganglia, and they also have the ability of logical operations. Their function is to connect several different brains, so that the thinking process of the eldest son can be coordinated. —Prevent schizophrenia and brainwave conflicts. The operation of this whole mechanism is very strange, and it is different from the various intelligent creatures known on this machine, but it can perfectly solve the various problems faced by the eldest son due to his oversized body. And More importantly: they allow the eldest son's thinking to be backed up. This machine believes that a single brain core can also think, but the execution efficiency will decrease, and there is no way to control all the tentacles, but if part of the eldest son's brain is offline, it will It can still survive with the remaining brain structure, and even repair its own offline brains... a perfect computing machine, it can form a local area network with itself and can upload and download things between several of its own brains!"
Lili clarified the logical relationship with her fingers, and was immediately shocked to her eldest son: "If I have this ability, I can't tell the characters without worrying about writing novels! I can even fall in love with myself!"
Vivienne squinted and smiled: "Unfortunately, you are still a single dog."
Lily: "Wow your face!!"
"Can't you stay quiet for a few minutes on such a serious occasion?" Hao Ren stared at the two enemies to quiet down, then turned to look at the data terminal, "I understand what you said... that means the eldest son has multiple brains, and These brains are still combined like modules, and those red balls are the main thinking organs—then what happened to the phantom of the Demon King City?"
The data terminal was silent for a while, blue light surged on the surface, and then speculated: "This machine thinks it is its sleep talking."
Hao Ren: "?"
"The spiritual power of the eldest son is strong enough to directly cause natural phenomena. Although it cannot reach the point of interfering with reality, it can at least create large-scale phantoms." The data terminal flew over the two spheres, "These two brain nuclei …although badly damaged, they are not dead, they are sleeping and occasionally dreaming." (to be continued~^~)
