Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

The moment the words fell, Lv Yongchang felt a slight dizziness coming from the depths of his consciousness.

The dizziness was not strong and lasted for a short time.

But the information behind it was something he could not ignore.

Without any hesitation, he leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes.

His eyelids firmly covered the faint orange-yellow light in his eyes.

"Yongchang?"

Fang Xu looked at Lv Yongchang's abnormal action with a confused look on his face: "You are..."

A dull response followed: "Let me think about it."

...

His consciousness sank quickly and came to the familiar yet unfamiliar technology tree space.

A dazzling orange-yellow light shone through the mottled background of the technology tree.

On the side of the white technology tree, a cursor with an orange-yellow background appeared - [Thought Stamp].

Every change was filled with a strong warning.

Lv Yongchang's heart sank slightly.

He had the honor of seeing this mode of the technology tree once.

Unlike this time, the technology tree space turned directly blood red.

[Cloning technology].

According to the standards of the technology tree, it is a real dangerous technology.

"Thought stamp..."

Lv Yongchang stared at the orange-yellow cursor and murmured in a low voice.

As the name suggests, this is the technology he just envisioned.

Implant a false memory fragment in the consciousness of an intelligent creature, so as to achieve control over the thinking of the intelligent creature.

"Is this also a dangerous technology..."

He whispered to himself and focused on the orange-yellow cursor.

Just like the cloning technology at the beginning, the development history of several civilizations was clearly presented in his mind like a movie.

His eyes gradually became complicated.

...

More than ten minutes later.

Under Fang Xu's gaze, Lv Yongchang opened his eyes with a complicated face and exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

It was slightly different from what he expected.

[Thought stamp] is not a dangerous technology.

If we have to classify it, Lv Yongchang prefers to call it sub-dangerous technology.

The difference between the two is also very simple.

Dangerous technology, for a single civilization, has no possibility to solve the negative impact it brings.

The civilization will eventually perish under its influence.

Sub-dangerous technology will also lead to the demise of civilization, but that is only a high-probability event.

This means that there are always a few gifted civilizations that can solve the negative images brought by [Thought Stamp] and rely on it to achieve rapid development of civilization.

Risks and benefits are always relative.

The high risks contained in [Thought Stamp] technology will inevitably bring high benefits to civilization.

Just like the Sweeper civilization - if it really relies on [Thought Stamp] to control the subordinate civilization.

"Yongchang." Fang Xu stared at Lv Yongchang's changing expression and said carefully: "The potential risk of this technology is very high."

Lv Yongchang nodded silently: "I know."

"Controlling the thinking of intelligent creatures must be risky."

"It may even lead to the destruction of civilization."

Fang Xu hesitated: "Then you..."

He wanted to persuade Lv Yongchang to give up this technology.

"We have to study it." Lv Yongchang did not give him this opportunity. "Although the risk is high, human civilization needs this technology."

"It will bring a new driving force for the development of human civilization."

"It is enough to drive human civilization to expand rapidly to level 6 or even level 7 civilization!"

"As for the risk..."

"The Sweeper civilization can master this technology safely, so we can do it too!"

Fang Xu suddenly showed a bitter smile on his face.

He guessed that this result would occur.

From the first step out of the earth, human civilization, led by Lv Yongchang, has been betting on that illusory vitality.

Level 5 civilization, it seems very powerful.

But Fang Xu, who had seen the [Painting] and Sweeper civilizations, did not think that human civilization could rest easy today.

Therefore, although he was emotionally opposed to this proposal, he still supported Lv Yongchang's decision rationally.

"I'll go to the biological laboratory right away."

Lv Yongchang stood up from his office chair, took off a loose white research coat beside him and put it on: "The management of the Academy of Sciences will be temporarily handed over to you."

"You should be very experienced in this area, so I won't say much nonsense."

"Okay."

Fang Xu responded in a brief tone.

...

[Earth].

The first biological laboratory of the Human Union.

The closed door suddenly opened, attracting the attention of many scientific researchers.

"Professor Lu?"

"Hello, Chief Lu!"

Shouts with strong surprise came one after another.

Lv Yongchang smiled and nodded to everyone, and asked directly: "Where is Academician Mao?"

"Professor, Academician Mao is studying the Yiwang data just sent back."

Some familiar voices came from the side.

"I remember you! You are..."

"Lu Siyuan?"

Lv Yongchang's smile became more intense: "Mao Zhengzhi mentioned you to me."

"You did a good job."

Lu Siyuan's face turned slightly red after receiving Lu Yongchang's praise. He raised his hand, gently touched the tip of his nose, and said a little embarrassedly: "It's all thanks to the cultivation of Academician Mao."

Lv Yongchang looked at Lu Siyuan with interest and joked: "Your nose-touching action is not much different from Mao Zhengzhi's."

"Have you learned it so thoroughly?"

As soon as the voice fell, a suppressed laugh came from the surroundings.

Seeing Lu Siyuan's face getting redder and redder, Lu Yongchang laughed and waved his hands: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"Take me to find Mao Zhengzhi"

"I have a big research project here!"

Hearing this, Lu Siyuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and the shyness on his face instantly dissipated a lot: "Really?!"

"Professor, please follow me!"

...

Half an hour later.

Mao Zhengzhi frowned, tapped the experimental table in front of him with his fingers, and unconsciously made a sound of "tsk tsk".

Obviously, the request made by Lu Yongchang caused him great trouble.

"Is it very difficult?"

Lv Yongchang's puzzled voice came from the side.

"Professor..." Mao Zhengzhi smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This difficulty cannot be described with just one word, high."

"I understand what you mean, by implanting fragmentary memories to influence people's thinking patterns."

"In theory, this is indeed feasible."

"But in practice, I'm afraid it's not that simple."
