Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 222 Brain Defect

"What happened next?" Before Dr. Roman finished speaking, Zhao Yao behind him had already shouted out anxiously. At the beginning, he and the big black dog had a good relationship and were very close comrades.

However, due to the difference in species genes, dogs cannot use human stem cell drugs to prolong their lifespan, and biologists do not have the energy to develop them specifically for dogs.

After military dogs retire, they are usually adopted by an ordinary family. I thought it had died of old age... Unexpectedly, a few years later, I saw it again, and it was revived with full blood!

Zhao Yao's words were actually nonsense. The experimental results were already in front of him. Of course, this experiment was successful...

At this time, no one cared. Everyone was just anxiously waiting for the answer.

Dr. Roman said in an inexplicable and strange tone: "We didn't have any expectations at first, we just treated it as an ordinary experiment. Because the previous animal experiments still failed even with willpower enhancement drugs..." "I didn't expect it to succeed this time. It's really incredible!" "Thanks to this, our scientific instruments have also recorded a lot of data, especially about changes in the brain... We have really taken a big step forward in the study of perfectionism!" Yu Yifeng held his chin and thought for a while, then asked: "Did you get any useful information? Why did this dog succeed? Is it easier for dying individuals to succeed, or smarter individuals to succeed?" "And... can this kind of successful example be extended to the entire human population?" When he asked this question, he felt a little uneasy. Judging from the facial expressions of scientists such as Roman and Kelly, the problem does not seem to be as simple as imagined...

"...No."

Sure enough, the miracle did not happen. Dr. Roman shook his head: "It has nothing to do with whether it is dying or not. Many human experiments in the past were also leaders who were dying of old age... However, it is still somewhat related to intelligence..."

"Why?" Yu Yifeng asked curiously.

In order to explain this question, Dr. Roman thought about it carefully: "What do you think is the most sophisticated organ of animals?"

"Of course it is the brain!" Yu Yifeng said without hesitation.

This is almost a common sense question, especially the human brain, which is the most sophisticated, sensitive and complex organ on earth.

Roman nodded: "Perfect element transforms individuals in an all-round way, whether it is the brain or other parts, it will be transformed. Even to the genetic level of each cell..."

"We don't understand the basic principle of this transformation, but judging from the transformation of plants, it will always develop in a good and more vital direction. But why does it cause brain death in animals?"

"The reason must be a problem with the brain."

Everyone nodded in agreement. This is the simplest method of elimination.

"We used to think that deep transformation at the level of nerve cells would likely destroy the interaction between neurons and erase one's self-consciousness. So we were inspired by the Martian virus and invented a willpower paralysis agent to try to strengthen one's self-consciousness and break this deadlock."

"However... the results of several animal experiments in recent times are still not ideal."

Yu Yifeng interrupted Dr. Roman again and said, "So what caused the failure of previous experiments? Why did this dog succeed?"

"Luck! Just good luck."

Roman finally uttered a few words. When he said this, his face was also very helpless and frustrated.

It's hard to imagine that a scientist would attribute the reason to "luck"!

Everyone looked at each other, wondering what Roman meant by "luck".

At this time, Dr. Kelly held a pile of information and distributed them to everyone. Yu Yifeng flipped it open and saw that it was the complete data of this experiment, including changes in various tissues and organs, etc.

Kelly took over from Dr. Roman and said, "Individual willpower is only one aspect. According to previous human experiments, when the perfect element transforms the body, the human body will produce a lot of painful hallucinations. If you can't survive these hallucinations, your personal will will be wiped out... This can be solved by the will paralysis potion developed later. We thought we would succeed in this way..."

"But the subsequent experiments and the results this time proved that willpower potions alone are not enough, but... our human brain structure itself is not perfect enough to withstand this kind of transformation!"

Yu Yifeng was stunned.

After struggling for so many years to find the perfect element, it turned out that humans themselves can't use it at all!

"It's not just humans, the brains of almost all creatures on earth are not perfect."

"Other organs in the human body are basically still flexible. Organs like the stomach, liver, gallbladder, and kidneys can be removed without any problem. They can withstand the extensive transformation of perfection. But the brain is not the same. If it moves a little, it will cause serious problems!"

Dr. Kelly turned to the seventh page of the information: "...Our brain is a product of history and carries a lot of historical baggage."

"There is a hypothesis called the "Trinity Brain" in this regard. This theory divides the human brain into three parts: "Reptilian Brain", "Ancient Mammalian Brain" and "New Mammalian Brain" according to the order of appearance in evolutionary history."

Simply put, the “neo-mammalian brain” controls cognitive functions, including language understanding, learning and memory, reasoning and planning, and more;

The "paleomammalian brain" is related to behaviors such as socialization, reciprocity and parenting that have been possessed by early mammals;

The "reptilian brain" is associated with territorial protection, ritualization, and other similar reptilian behaviors.

Therefore, the human brain is not the product of an overnight, holistic design. The human brain is like a patchwork computer. The CPU is new, but the motherboard is old. The old motherboard is not well compatible with the new CPU, and as a result, the performance of the CPU cannot be fully utilized.

In fact, many things in the human brain have fallen behind the times!

Yu Yifeng and others nodded, everyone understood this statement...

"Our advanced brain needs to constantly suppress the impulsive thoughts and structures controlled by the primitive brain. In other words, the human brain is actually full of various patches. Even if there are patches, there are also various loopholes."

“Some people are impulsive and irritable, and have violent tendencies. Although there are reasons for their acquired education, it may also be due to imperfect congenital brains and low prefrontal lobe function... From this perspective, smart people’s brains are also more perfect. "

"And Perfect Su, like a master of computer modification, is likely to modify it directly when faced with these miscellaneous old-fashioned gadgets. As long as one component is wrong, it will cause human brain death. After all, Perfect Su is the product of an alien civilization. Products are not specially designed for humans..."

"Of course there are a very small number of success stories, which can only be attributed to luck...that is, this big black dog."

Kelly glanced at the big black dog who was having fun. How could this awesome guy be so lucky?

In the end, she said very helplessly: "The smarter the individual in the race, the more perfect the brain structure, the fewer loopholes, and the higher the success rate of transformation. This statement should be correct. Alas..."

Finally filled a hole...

Finally, I wish you all a Merry Christmas!
