Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 924 Extra chapter: "Undead Society"

"How do you know the content of my dream?!" Ishi Chuanhui was startled, and subconsciously reached out to touch his own pocket, but it was empty.

"Are you looking for this?" The man took out the small box that Shi Chuanhui regarded as a treasure and asked.

"Give it back to me!" Ishi Chuanhui shouted.

"Okay." The man didn't make things difficult for Shi Chuanhui, and threw the small box to him very readily.After Ishi Chuanhui caught it, he immediately opened it to check. There were more than a dozen memory cards the size of fingernails, none of which were missing, but the traces left by Ishi Chuanhui on each memory card were destroyed. Obviously, The other party has already read all the contents of these dozens of memory cards.

After the initial panic, Ishi Chuanhui has calmed down slowly. He put away the small box and looked at the other party - this is a young man who seems to be only in his early 20s. He is wearing a pullover that is very common on the street. Sweater, a pair of bulky overalls, and white canvas shoes covered with colorful graffiti... This outfit is a bit like a hip-hop youth wandering the streets. If you add a satchel around your waist, and stuff a few more Bottles of spray paint, that's more like that.

"You just said...you also entered...a similar dream?" Ishi Chuanhui asked tentatively.

"That's right, but the content of the dream is slightly different from yours." The young man nodded, "Your dream is mainly about researching living tissue that can replace the internal organs of living things. Hundreds of times higher than that, even a mouse that has been dead for more than half an hour can miraculously survive after being implanted with this kind of living tissue... Even the permanent irreversible damage to the brain due to lack of oxygen can be repaired... If this kind of technology is leaked, it will definitely cause shock in the academic world... To be honest, I am a little curious why you don't choose to contribute this kind of technology, this thing can give you the supreme status, and use it for several lifetimes Endless wealth..."

"This technology is incomplete, and the most critical difficulty has never been overcome." Ishi Chuanhui said, he was basically sure that the other party only glanced at the contents of his storage card, and did not read carefully, "Dream The theories and formulas provided in are all accurate. In reality, I have also done experiments, which are completely feasible... But there is a 'black box' in the experiment. If I can't crack this 'black box', I will never be able to Replicating experiments in the real world."

"What black box? Tell me." The young man showed a hint of curiosity, "Maybe, I can help you."

"Black box" was originally a term in the computer field. It refers to treating a certain program as a black box that cannot be opened. All tests and operations must use the "black box". It is considered as a complete and indivisible individual, and only the parts other than the black box can be observed and modified.As for the things in the black box, all of them cannot be moved.

"A material called 'God's Blood'." Shi Chuanhui said truthfully, "The composition of this material is unknown, the source is unknown, and even what role it plays in the experiment is not clear, but every experiment We all need it, without it, the experiment cannot go on.”

"God's blood..." The young man chewed the word carefully, "It seems that the civilization that imparted knowledge to us is a civilization full of religious atmosphere... It is obvious that the level of technology is so much stronger than human civilization, but the belief God...it's really interesting."

"What are you talking about... the civilization that taught us knowledge?" Ishi Chuanhui asked suspiciously.

"Haven't you ever thought about the origin of these dreams?" the young man asked back.

"I've thought about it, but I haven't come to any conclusion..." Shi Chuanhui sighed, "If there is a god in this world, then I'm afraid I can only attribute it to God's revelation."

"Gods don't have time to play such boring tricks..." The young man smiled dryly, "Don't you think that this form of dream is very similar to the 'Dream' in the legends of the old era?"

"Tuomeng...? When you say that, it seems a bit..."

"Did you know? In fact, with the technology on the Ark, it is already possible to 'dream'. Just last month, 'Fantasy Technology' officially launched the 'Dream Customization' service. This service is especially popular with those who are rich and like to pursue Exciting people are chasing after it, and the reserved places have already been queued for two years.”

"Dream customization?" Shi Chuanhui was stunned for a moment. He had never heard of this service—although he was considered rich, he could only be regarded as the "middle class" on the Ark at best. People, there is still a huge gap.

"They stimulate the human brain through micro-currents and magnetic fields, and combined with hypnosis technology, they can allow customers to enter a custom-made dream... It is said that the success rate is over 70.00% five... Don't you think, ours Is the experience similar to this dream customization business?"

"It's very similar... But does that kind of service require a lot of instruments and equipment to complete? It shouldn't be possible to make me fall into a custom-made dream unconsciously, right? Moreover, every time this kind of dream requires When it appears, I will always have obvious heart palpitations... I will deliberately check the surrounding environment before falling into the dream, basically ensuring that my dream has not been disturbed by the outside world. Moreover, I can enter that dream in this small hotel. Dreamland, doesn’t it make sense?”

"Your thinking is limited to the technological level of human beings... What if the interference in your dream is an alien civilization whose technological level is far above that of human beings? You know, the knowledge and technology we come into contact with in dreams are also human beings. What we have never had...then why can’t it be a certain alien civilization manipulating our dreams?” There was a hint of excitement in the young man’s tone.

"Alien civilization... You mean, aliens?!" Ishi Chuanhui was slightly startled, "But, do aliens have any purpose in doing this?"

"I don't know, if they are willing to communicate with us, they probably have already communicated with us." The young man shook his head, "But it seems that they want to help us...not only did they not show any malice towards us , and taught us all kinds of advanced technologies... No matter how you look at it, none of them should be the enemy of mankind."

"By the way, what kind of knowledge did you come into contact with in the dream?" Ishi Chuanhui asked.

"Body modification." The young man said, and suddenly took off the jumper, revealing his upper body.

At least one-third of the bare torso is made up of man-made parts—through the transparent silicone skin, Ishikawa Hui can see the internal organs and various organs of the young man. The machinery and pipelines are perfectly fitted together, the bright red blood surges in the polymer tube, a titanium alloy piston pump replaces the original heart, and presses the blood to every corner of the body... even the lungs can accept it. It has undergone a drastic transformation, the surface is covered with silver metal foil, and countless tiny wires are connected to the metal foil.

"Body modification...this is a violation..." Ishi Chuanhui got stuck in the middle of his sentence, he hesitated for a while, and then changed the question, "How do you solve the problem of exclusion...rejection? "

"As long as the body's immune system is completely shielded, there will be no rejection problems." The young man said.

"But... In that case, the human body will completely lose its immunity, just like a patient in the late stage of AIDS, any bacteria or virus in the environment can kill you?" Shi Chuanhui looked shocked.

"As long as the entire body is replaced with a cyborg prosthetic body, only the brain part is kept, and the brain is placed in a completely sterile environment, won't this problem be solved?" The young man shrugged, "Shield the immune system I'm still in the experimental phase of this topic... Actually, I lied to you just now, I haven't been able to solve the problem of rejection at all."

After speaking, he took out a syringe, stuck it in his neck, and pushed all the liquid medicine inside into his body.

"I have to inject an immunosuppressant every four hours, otherwise I will die suddenly..." The young man said to Ishi Chuanhui, "But my body is gradually developing resistance. A month ago, I only needed One injection every twelve hours was enough, then it became eight hours, and now... four hours."

"then you……"

"Yes, I am gradually dying... When the immunosuppressants are completely ineffective on my body, it will be the time of my death. Before that, I only have two options, and this is my only way of life... Of course, their probability is not [-]%." ​​The young man held up two fingers, "The first way is to replace all the parts of the body with cyborg prosthesis as I said, and only keep the brain ;The second way, I need your help, as long as the kind of living tissue you cultivated can be implanted into the body, no matter how serious the problem is, it can be solved... What you are researching is the seed of a miracle, it can live The miracle of the dead, flesh and bones!"

"But my experiment is stuck, I don't know where to get 'God's Blood'! Unless the things in the dream can be brought into reality, which is impossible! I can't even bring out the notes, let alone Say 'God's Blood'! I can't save you..." Ishi Chuanhui said with some frustration, "You are really courageous...how dare you apply those technologies to yourself...the experiment in reality, I Basically, they are still in the stage of verifying the theory... As for cultivating that kind of living tissue, I haven't even tried it in the real world..."

As he spoke, his voice couldn't help but lowered: "It's useless to try, without the 'God's Blood', it is impossible to succeed at all..."

"Do you think I want to transform my body into this look?" The young man smiled miserably, "I have a rare disease, a disease that is more difficult to treat than cancer...with the existing medical technology, it cannot be cured at all. Heal my illness...Even if it is cured, I can't afford the astronomical treatment fee. I can only try to save myself...Those dreams may be just an adventure to you, but to me, But it is salvation in despair..."

"Who did the surgery for you?" Ishi Chuanhui asked again, "Your level of body modification cannot be done by one person... Someone must have helped you, and you told other people about your dream, Right?"

"Besides me and you, there is indeed a third person... But it was not I who told him about the dream, but he took the initiative to find me. He called people like us 'chosen children'... … There are millions of people on the Ark, but we are the only ones who have received the favor of that alien civilization. We are special, we are different from others… We should be called the leaders of mankind—he is so told me."

"He... that, the third person, has he also entered this kind of dream?" Ishi Chuanhui asked in surprise, "Who is he? How did he find you?"

"He is a doctor in an underground clinic. At that time, I tried to make some simple cyborg prosthetic bodies and entrusted him to help me implant them in my body. Things are of the same origin, so he told me everything... and the knowledge he obtained in the dream has successfully produced a trial product."

"What is it?" Shi Chuanhui asked.

"He called it the 'Coffin of Eternal Life'. This thing is a bit like a hibernation cabin, but unlike the hibernation cabin, the 'Coffin of Eternal Life' can keep human consciousness awake all the time while preserving the human body In the state of..."

"Isn't that the real eternal life?" Shi Chuanhui's heart moved, "If you combine with your technology, save the human body in the 'coffin of eternal life', and then create a cyborg prosthetic body body, manipulate this body through consciousness..."

"We have also thought about this kind of operation, but there is a fatal problem in the coffin of eternal life - people who enter the coffin of eternal life can no longer come out, even if they just lie in it for 10 minutes, their bodies will age rapidly after coming out , will die within one day. We have thought of many ways, but we have not been able to solve this problem... For this reason, six people have been 'wasted'." The young man suddenly stared at Shi Chuanhui, " So, you know how important your research is to us, right?"

"Indeed... according to what you said... the technology I obtained in the dream can just make up for the gap in this 'ring'... But the problem is back to the original point, I don't have the 'blood of God', all my technology It's all based on 'God's Blood'...without this, my knowledge would be a pile of waste paper."

"Perhaps, there is a fourth person... The technology he obtained in the dream is to create the blood of God." The young man said, "But before finding the fourth person, I hope you can join our organization."

"organize?"

"Yes... Since our goal is to study 'immortality', then the name of our organization is - 'Undead Society'."
