With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 326 Activation Factor
【turbine】.

Numabuchi production plant.

The simulated sunlight took on a hint of yellowness, and misty artificial drizzle quietly fell from the sky.

Chen Fan walked out of the mind synchronization control device with a normal expression. Not far from him, Gao Yuan, Isa and others also crawled out of the mind synchronization device at the same time.

It was very different from the first time they entered the mind-synchronization device—no one showed any signs of damage to their consciousness or brain.

This is mainly due to the help of Yi.

After several days of hard work, Yi not only cracked the mind-synchronization control device, but also reversely invaded the control brain of the Numayuan production plant.

Today, the Numabuchi production plant has completely become Yi's territory.

Under Chen Fan's command, Yi deciphered and took over all the mind-synchronized control devices in the factory.

Unlike carbon-based organisms, Yi is very good at basic and tedious tasks such as "laying tiles" - in Yi's words, compared with the miscellaneous tasks done by humans, the value of these tasks is really too low.

Chen Fan didn’t know what others were thinking, but when he heard this, his first reaction was that the Human Resources Group was indeed good at exploiting labor.

Damn it, even artificial intelligence is not spared! !
Although he said that, Chen Fan did not show any sympathy for Yi and handed over all the "labor" of the entire Numayuan production factory to Yi.

Those who can do more work.

If you can work, do more.

During the process of performing labor on behalf of others, Yi even used the control brain of the Numabuchi production plant as a springboard to implant some hidden backdoor programs into the internal network of [Turbine].

To put it in the simplest terms, as long as Chen Fan gives the order, the entire [Turbine] will probably go into shutdown mode.

It can also be regarded as a double insurance for your own life safety.

[This machine has received an inter-universe communication signal from the Dangerous Technology Administration.]

Yi's electronic synthesized voice suddenly rang in Chen Fan's ears, interrupting his somewhat scattered thoughts: [Communication note: Taking kickbacks.]

Chen Fan's heart moved.

After the first mind synchronization, he decisively chose to package all the scanning and detection data and upload them to the Hazardous Technology Administration.

Two days later, the technical assistance from the Administration finally arrived.

But he never expected that it was Academician Wang Jing who was responsible for the technical assistance!
"Connect immediately."

Thinking of the physical examination items he had experienced at that time, Chen Fan, who was frightened, could only bite the bullet and give the order to Yi.

The holographic panel projected onto the visor slowly revealed an image of a man with heavy eye bags and messy hair.

Completely different from her previous image of intellectual beauty, Wang Jing at this moment was like an older homebody who stayed up late every day to watch anime, and her whole body exuded a decadent aura.

"I go……"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Chen Fan subconsciously exclaimed: "Academician Wang Jing, what are you doing..."

"Oh, nothing." Wang Jing reached out and scratched her messy hair nonchalantly, then unbuttoned two buttons of her research robe at the Academy of Sciences, "It's just a few nights of sleep."

"How many days did you last?" Chen Fan looked up and down at Wang Jing and the holographic interface beside her that flashed a red warning message with a strange expression, "Are you sure it was only a few days?"

If he read correctly...

That warning message seemed to be reminding Wang Jing to rest as soon as possible?

Wang Jing pondered for a moment: "It should only be a few days."

"The last time I slept was... when you reported on the research vessel TE913?"

Chen Fan took a deep breath.

TE913 scientific research vessel?

This was all a few months ago, right?!

"Oh, it's okay." Wang Jing waved her hand again, "There's a medical cabin here, nothing serious will happen."

"...Where is Academician Song?" Chen Fan asked cautiously.

"You mean Xiao Song..." Wang Jing answered listlessly, "He should still be tracking down the ghost fleet you reported earlier. The leakage of the communication code book is a big deal. I guess he is still doing a comprehensive screening at the Academy of Sciences."

Chen Fan was ashamed: "..."

My goodness, he is mobilizing the Dangerous Technology Administration and the Human Union Academy of Sciences in disguise!
"Let's get down to business."

Under Chen Fan's somewhat horrified gaze, Wang Jing casually closed the warning message beside her: "I have seen all the test data you uploaded in the past two days."

"Without the physical object, it is difficult to analyze and study it."

Wang Jing raised her hand and quickly opened a holographic panel in front of her: "But fortunately, the scanning and analysis functions of the investigator's intelligent terminal and exoskeleton armor are relatively complete."

“It can be considered a small gain.”

Hearing this, Chen Fan's expression suddenly became more serious: "You say."

"First of all, these mind-synchronized control devices will produce a very intense information impact on the brain of the organism during use."

Wang Jing's slightly hoarse voice echoed in Chen Fan's ears: "The sources of information are mainly two aspects."

"The first is the resonance of consciousness that naturally arises after consciousness is synchronized."

Chen Fan's eyes moved: "Are those the voices I heard earlier?" Wang Jing paused and confirmed Chen Fan's words: "Yes, those are actually... thoughts emitted by the consciousness of the creatures."

"You can also say it's a memory fragment... It's a little hard to describe. Just think of it as the subconscious of an intelligent creature." Wang Jing reached out and scratched her dry, split-end hair again. "After the thoughts are synchronized, the thoughts of the creatures will have a certain degree of commonality, and their subconscious will also be connected."

"For most carbon-based organisms, the information impact of thought resonance is quite huge and unbearable."

"To put it simply, it means that... you have dozens or even hundreds of independent thoughts and consciousnesses in your brain out of thin air. At the very least, you will suffer from schizophrenia, and at the worst, you will be directly shocked into a vegetable."

Chen Fan shuddered slightly: "What about the second one?"

"The second one?" Wang Jing smiled with interest, "Of course it is the complex data generated during the manipulation process."

"That kind of detailed data is beyond the capability of a carbon-based biological brain to process."

"These huge amounts of data and information constantly impact the biological brain and consciousness. In this process, the utilization rate of the biological brain will be forcibly increased, just like a balloon that is constantly filled with gas, and the balloon will continue to expand."

"This..." Chen Fan frowned and murmured softly, "Why do I feel a little bit..."

"It's a bit like your high-dimensional resonance, right?" Wang Jing took over the conversation with a smile.

Seeing Chen Fan nod, Wang Jing continued: "To be honest, I also felt a little similar at first, but the amount of information in high-dimensional resonance is much larger, and the two are not at the same order of magnitude at all."

"in addition……"

"The murmurs you heard in the high-dimensional resonance should be the broadcasts of a radio civilization, and should not be related to this thing."

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily put aside the doubts in his mind: "By the way, you just mentioned brain utilization... What does this mean?"

"It's the degree of brain development." Wang Jing yawned and said nonchalantly, "Normally, most organisms don't use their brains to a high degree."

"Let's use an analogy."

"When the Human Union's main civilization was still at the first level, the in-depth study and application of the theory of relativity was a skill that only a very small number of people could master."

"But now..."

"Relativity is the basic content of preschool enlightenment education. In the human civilization, even a baby who has just turned one month old can give you a few words about relativity."

Chen Fan's eyes twitched slightly.

It turns out that... the theoretical knowledge he had learned before could only be regarded as preschool enlightenment education? !
"During this evolutionary process, humans are still humans, and the brain is still the brain. Although the gene sequence has changed, it has not changed the essence of human beings."

Wang Jing's voice continued: "But human thinking ability has made a qualitative leap."

"This phenomenon is related to brain utilization, that is, the degree of brain development."

"The higher the level of civilization, the higher the utilization rate of the brain and the stronger the thinking ability. This is a universal law."

"But improving brain utilization is not an easy task. Even a powerful civilization like the Human Union took tens of thousands of years to slowly reach this point." Wang Jing's voice was filled with a sigh. "Most civilizations would find it difficult to do the same thing even if they spent millions of years. This is related to the potential of the race and various complex factors."

Chen Fan was secretly speechless.

But the next second, he seemed to have thought of something, and his spirit suddenly perked up: "In this case, then the thought synchronization control device is..."

"A magical tool to improve brain utilization?"

Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan with a half-smile: "Don't you know the consequences of forcing things to grow?"

Looking at the swamp people in front of him who looked numb and like zombies, Chen Fan suddenly fell silent.

"This behavior of forcibly increasing brain utilization is like forcibly filling a balloon with gas. It seems that the balloon does expand, but a lot of imperceptible and irreversible damage occurs on the surface of the balloon."

“The same is true for biological brains.”

"But organisms are amazing. They have unique self-repair and compensation mechanisms." Wang Jing sighed, "In this process, organisms will synthesize some special activation factors to repair the brain."

"These activators play a critical role in increasing brain utilization."

"But the synthesis and manufacture of this substance is quite difficult, and it can only be synthesized slowly by organisms over time."

"Because of this, improving brain utilization is a very time-consuming thing. Fortunately, this change has a certain genetic effect. Civilized races pass it down from generation to generation, and it can naturally improve the average brain utilization of a race."

"The Bray civilization's mind synchronization control console takes advantage of this," Wang Jing said calmly. "It relies on a large amount of information to impact the brain and consciousness of organisms, thereby forcibly expanding the utilization rate of the brain. In this process, in order to protect itself, the organism will continuously secrete this special activation factor to repair the brain."

"And this is the fundamental goal of the Bray civilization."

"When an intelligent creature can no longer bear the pressure and dies suddenly, a brain full of activation factors is born."

"The active ingredients in the star sand are these activation factors."

Chen Fan swallowed hard and stared at Wang Jing in the communication interface in a daze: "This...isn't this the process of force-feeding foie gras?"

Wang Jing shrugged: "That's indeed the way it can be understood."

"These activating factors can temporarily increase the brain activity of an organism, and long-term use can even quickly increase the brain utilization of an organism."

"So..." Chen Fan's eyes widened, "Is the effect of Xingsha claiming to promote brain growth real?"

"In theory, it is true." Wang Jing's expression gradually became complicated, "But... you have a broadcasting civilization over there, and the increase in brain activity will lead to a slight high-dimensional resonance phenomenon."

"so……"

"Xingsha has experienced similar side effects as the researchers on the TE913 research vessel. As a result, the brain that produces the activation factor has also experienced more serious distortions."
