Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

"Compared to the previous times, your brain has evolved again during this time."

While Lu Yongchang was flipping through the documents, Dr. Wen's explanation sounded again.

"evolution?"

Lu Yongchang's eyes moved slightly, and he quickly caught the key point of Dr. Wen's words, and asked in a low voice: "In what direction will it evolve?"

"There are no clear research results." Dr. Wen frowned and slowly shook his head, "But it should be a beneficial evolution."

"At least, for now, your brain activity is much higher than that of normal humans, and your thinking speed and memory are also much higher than normal people."

Lu Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief and put down the documents in his hands.

"Since it is a beneficial evolution, then don't worry about it."

"Maybe one day I will become a new human being."

Lu Yongchang said jokingly.

There was no smile on Dr. Wen's face. He just frowned and looked at Lu Yongchang's brain.

"Although it is a beneficial evolution, your brain changes significantly faster during this period than before."

At this point, Dr. Wen shook his head in distress: "Is it because of external stimulation?"

"It doesn't make sense. We live in the same place and have similar diets. Why would there be such an abnormal change?"

Lu Yongchang's eyebrows jumped slightly.

He did know the reason.

During this period, he used the technology tree system to overclock a lot more times.

Although I still don’t know where the technology tree system is, but...

After all, this should be the external stimulation Dr. Wen mentioned, right?

"Ahem."

Lu Yongchang coughed twice and quickly changed the topic: "Can I be discharged from the hospital now?"

"Discharged?" Dr. Wen glanced at Lu Yongchang in surprise, "Of course."

"All the necessary tests have been done, and just like before, we can't find the cause at all."

"Of course, if you are willing to do a craniotomy, I might be able to help you find..."

"No, no, no, excuse me." Lu Yongchang's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly sat up from the bed and pulled off the various sensor electrodes attached to his body.

"It's just a joke." Dr. Wen looked at Lu Yongchang with a half-smile on his face and said again.

"There is a suggestion, of course, there is no basis for it, just intuition."

"Tell me." Lu Yongchang stopped packing his things and running away, and asked seriously.

After Dr. Wen thought about it for a while, he slowly said, "Although I don't know what happened to you."

"However, this kind of forced evolution will cause certain damage to the human brain."

"No, more accurately, there is damage to the brains of all carbon-based organisms."

Hearing this, Lu Yongchang's expression suddenly became serious.

"Is the damage serious?"

"Can it recover on its own?"

Dr. Wen was silent for a long time, and then shook his head with a troubled expression.

"I don't know."

"Historically, no similar situation has ever been found in animals or humans themselves."

"Based on the current situation, this minor injury can recover on its own."

"Otherwise you can't stand here and talk to me."

Several black lines suddenly appeared on Lu Yongchang's forehead.

The words are rough and the reasoning is not rough.

"Maybe... maybe it's not an injury..." Dr. Wen murmured to himself in a very low voice with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"What?" Lu Yongchang asked subconsciously.

"It's okay." Doctor Wen seemed to have thought of something, waved his hand with no interest, turned around and was about to leave, "Remember to close the door for me when you go out."

Lu Yongchang: "..."

I didn't listen to everything, and I always felt like there were ants crawling in my heart.

…

After Lu Yongchang left, Dr. Wen quickly returned to his desk, then reached out and opened the folded holographic screen.

On the screen are several brain scans.

One of the scans looked extremely weird.

Unlike normal brain images, there is a small gap in the central area of ​​the brain in this scan.

It's like there are no objects in this area at all.

But this strange phenomenon only appeared for a moment, and the scanned image quickly returned to its normal appearance.

At first, Dr. Wen thought it was a malfunction of the instrument and didn't take it to heart.

Until just now.

A conversation with Lu Yongchang made her realize a problem.

Perhaps this is not an instrument failure?

She frowned, reached out and retrieved every data from the examination, and looked through it carefully.

Time passes bit by bit.

The look on her face gradually became weird.

"This is……"

"Energy of matter?"

Dr. Wen was shocked by the results she derived. She murmured to herself: "How is it possible..."

The next moment, she raised her hand and waved to disperse the holographic projection above the desk.

"Zero, as before, seal the results of this inspection."

"receive."

…

After leaving the medical center, Lu Yongchang quickly recalled the inspiration he gained during the "overclocking" process.

He pondered for a moment, and then changed his original route.

He decided to go to the biology laboratory first.

To complete that plan, the research results of the biological laboratory may be the most important thing.

"Zero, how is the biological laboratory going?" Lv Yongchang asked in a deep voice.

As Lv Yongchang's voice fell, a virtual image constructed by countless particles slowly emerged beside him.

"Professor, are you referring to the human body enhancement project?"

"Of course." Lv Yongchang nodded to confirm.

Zero's virtual image quickly "floated" in the corridor and followed Lv Yongchang's footsteps.

"So far, the experimental personnel in the gravity cabin are living in good condition, and no sequelae have been found."

Lv Yongchang nodded with satisfaction: "Very good."

"Is Mao Zhengzhi in the laboratory?"

After receiving a positive answer, Lv Yongchang quickened his pace and headed straight towards the biological laboratory.

"By the way."

Near the door of the biological laboratory, Lv Yongchang suddenly thought of something.

He paused, stopped where he was, and squinted his eyes slightly to look at the virtual image beside him.

"When I fainted, was it you who called the medical staff?"

Zero admitted without any hesitation: "Yes, I detected abnormal fluctuations in your vital signs at that time..."

Lv Yongchang interrupted Zero: "This conflicts with the order I gave you, doesn't it?"

"Yes." To Lv Yongchang's surprise, Zero admitted it again directly.

"Then you..." Lv Yongchang's narrowed eyes flashed with an unknown light.

"According to the underlying code, I can temporarily change the instructions when the creator is in or may be in danger of life."

"Instructions can only be changed in a direction that is beneficial to the creator."

Zero's electronic synthesized voice sounded in the empty corridor.
