"How long will it take for the ancestral soul to completely dissipate?" I asked this key question when I saw the resurrection process about to begin.
"Unsure," Tavel replied frankly, "Because no soul reaction has been detected so far, the soul of the ancestor is in an unmeasured state even if it is still alive-can do nothing about it does anything to an undetectable thing. Inference. But if the soul of the ancestor is at an unpredictable critical point according to the ideal situation, we have up to 24 hours. "
Twenty-four hours ... In this short day, all possible resurrection methods should be tried again. If it is not successful, then even if the body of the ancestor is resurrected later, it will be meaningless: this is really An urgent matter.
Shandora and Tavel have already talked to me about the problems that have been encountered and may be encountered in the resurrection plan. I see that they are ready to start and ca n’t help but ask: "So what can I help? Busy? "
I think it ’s meaningful to call Shandora in such a hurry. As a result, Shandora thought for a while: “No—I just want you to come and watch. No matter whether the first test is successful or not, this is history Sexual scene, you want to be a witness ... "
Me: "..."
"Of course there is one more point, if you are beside, I will feel at ease."
I just breathed out.
Of course, it is impossible to take out all the remains of the ancestors in the first experiment, and only one of them is used for resurrection, so that even if we fail, we have the opportunity to try next time. Of course, if possible, everyone hopes to succeed the first time, after all, after knowing the various troubles that may be encountered in the resurrection process, I think that if the first attempt fails, no matter how many times thereafter, there is not much chance to find other feasible solutions. .
"The equipment group is ready, and each group checks their respective project sections in sequence," Tavel quickly operated on the crystal panel beside the test stand, while giving instructions to her peripheral assistants. With this at the same time, she A large group of mass projections also started to start up a lot of equipment in the laboratory in sequence that I can't see the use of. "We are pressed for time, and I require every step to be seamlessly connected."
Shandora dragged me back a few steps: now it is already a field of experts, and laymen cannot interfere with laymen ’s work.
At this location, I can also see the situation of the entire laboratory. I can see that a large number of nearby recording and analysis equipment have been launched. The complex Hologram screen flashes with a shimmer, appearing one by one above those equipment, showing the resurrection separately. The status of the equipment used and the monitoring of the remains of the ancestors. Above the platform where the remains of the ancestors are parked, appeared is also suspended in mid-air. It is the body to scan image of the ancestors ’remains, as well as the activity of the organization and the monitoring of the soul: the latter is now a straight line without fluctuations.
Tavel's calm, almost mechanical voice is the only vocal voice in a tense and busy laboratory: "Material reorganization equipment is online, the disaster disposal team is on standby, and the body is ready for reconstruction ... How about the laboratory host, energy system? ? "
"Host report ... After the energy system testing is completed, twelve sets of backup energy are available, and all redundant systems are successfully switched to simulate successfully. Our laboratory can guarantee the supply of energy to the core equipment or switch to the backup system under any circumstances. "
I feel that Shandora squeezed her hand, and then heard her softly whisper from the spiritual connection: "The normal resurrection process is to locate the target soul first, and then start to reconstruct the body, if necessary. The flesh can even be discarded and replaced with new things, but this time, we can only follow the reverse process: first resurrect the flesh, and then whether the body has a soul can only be destined ... "
I also squeezed Shandora's's hand to make her feel at ease: "I don't understand these things well, but I think they will succeed."
At this time, Tavel has completed all the preparatory work, she finally checked the work of the test platform, and then ordered to start the ring lamp above the room ... Well, the scientific name is "information evolution restart equipment", this equipment will pass Restart all the information in the range to break the stagnation state of the material in our hometown-we don't yet know how this stagnation state came, but Tavel already knows how it is gone, which is enough.
I did n’t feel anything when the equipment was started, but I heard a very low buzzing sound in the laboratory. Maybe there was a little feeling? As if I had experienced a certain section of time appeared or lost a second? Anyway, it was only a momentary thing, and then the resurrection process began. Everyone in the laboratory seemed to start from a still picture, and it ran quickly and instantly.
A vertical light curtain rises from under the test platform, slowly sweeping the ancestors ’heads from head to toe, and then sweeping backwards. The monitoring image above the platform shows the damage to the body. The body of the ancestor's remains is intact, and there is no fatal injury. The death caused by the ultra-low temperature and massive radiation caused by the failure of the dormant cabin, so most of the cells in this remains have "internal injuries." Those cells are different from any organism of on the Earth. They look a bit like crystals. The genetic material inside is a bright line running through the crystals: normal cells are like this, but cells killed by ultra-low temperature and massive radiation There are signs of cracking or deterioration. Eighty percent of the body's cells, at the same time, died, resulting in the instant death of the ancestor, while the remains were kept alive.
Tavel began to repair those damaged biological tissues. From the micro level, the body was reconstructed molecule by molecule. She completely used the original material of body to complete the repair process to prevent any foreign substances The process has an unstable effect. at the same time, a ring of light appeared above the platform, and I felt some kind of energy field enveloped the remains of the ancestors.
"That's something to prevent the soul from escaping," Shandora explained. "Although the soul of the ancestor cannot be detected, this equipment can still take effect. If the soul of the ancestor is really still there, this equipment can be in the target body. When you can "run" the soul, re-encode the soul and suppress it on the target. You know that for the body, the soul is something like executable code, and the software cannot exist without the hardware. The role of this halo is Disguised as a body, so that the soul can not escape its scope of action. "
"But it doesn't stop the soul from weakening, does it?" I asked curiously.
Shandora expression is somewhat regretful nodded: "It is indeed the case, you can use the fence to prevent the sheep from running out of the sheepfold, but you cannot prevent them from slowly dying in the fence ..."
Shandora already uses such a vivid metaphor.
There is a tense atmosphere in the laboratory. The repair of the ancestor ’s remains is actually the least technical link. With Xiling science and technology, the difficulty of repairing anything on the physical level is almost negligible. The really difficult place is, It is to let this body "live" again. life is a wonderful thing. Scientists of on the Earth have been arguing and arguing on the topic of "What is life" for many years, and it has not yet been finalized. From a pure "scientific" perspective, the so-called life is just a process of conversion of a bunch of organic matter. After splitting without emotion, life is finally attributed to physics and chemistry, and can be regarded as a bunch of constantly transforming macromolecules-this The concept is broadened, and extending the scope of life to inorganic and psionic creatures is nothing more than a more complex chemical or physical change.
If we only follow this standard, then let the ancestor's body restart the series of physical and chemical reactions can be regarded as the latter "live", but Shandora is not so simple results.
To bring the ancestors back to life, we do n’t just want the body to start a series of ordered material changes, it ’s not just to let it open eyes under the stimulation of hormones and biological currents-that and the Frankenstein is no different.
After the remains of the ancestors were repaired, the project entered the next stage, and Tavel began to try to restore the "body" to "vitality."
On various monitoring screens, I can see that the body has been running: he has breathed, body fluids have started to flow, and the internal organs that were repaired just a minute ago are vigorously pulsating, which is different from Human Race The somewhat weird body of the within the body structure seems to me to be "lively". I even saw the finger of the "remain" on the test bench twitched a few meters away.
However, he never opened eyes, he did not respond to various external stimuli applied by Tavel, and even did not respond to mental direct stimuli, just like a blank machine, roaring, but lifeless.
"Which step is wrong?" Shandora asked in the first two steps in a low voice, and Tavel frowned: "The restoration on the physical level has been completed, but the ancestor's body refused to come alive. I can't detect it Any life force, there is no mental fluctuation. theoretically is like this. "
I looked at the ancestor in the crystal coffin. This body is breathing smoothly. Every cell of it is working, but it has no life force-this is not the same as the vegetative. The vegetative still has mental power, and This body ......
It must be said that it is now a group of tens of kilograms of silicon-sulfur compounds (ancestor body's main component), which is undergoing an orderly chemical reaction, which is no different from the reactants in any chemical tank.
Like a computer with no OS installed, the hard drive hummed, the processor was steaming, the case was busy, but the screen was dark and there was no cursor.
Shandora put her hand on the crystal coffin, her power diffused carefully, I know she was calling the soul of the ancestor with the powerful power of the soul grabber. After a while, the expression of Shandora changed slightly, it seemed to take A little joy, but more confusion: "I can feel that something similar to the soul is slowly recovering. The soul of the ancestor seems to be on this body, and it has been preserved along with the stagnation, but this soul cannot ' Start 'Physique, there must be something missing ...'
"The key element that lacks the power of life, activates the body, couples the soul, and distinguishes the reactants in the biological and chemical tanks, Della calls it the power of life-although no one has actually touched it except Della That kind of power, "I feel like my head has shined like never before. Of course, this has something to do with my usual play with Della." What do you think of Tavel? "
"No," Tavel shook his head in confusion. "Under normal circumstances, life force will naturally occur after physical repair ..." She was interrupted by Shandora half of her words: "It is not normal now. The ancient materials that make up the remains of the ancestors have been stagnation for trillions of years, and these materials may have produced changes we did not know about. Are A'Jun and Della in your pocket? "
I reached out and touched my pocket, but I remembered that the little thing was busy watching TV when I went out today, so I did n’t bring her. at this moment She should be playing with or being played at home.
"Calling her, I'm really confused. This kind of project can definitely use her power." Shandora said, patting her head, actually not blaming her for not thinking about it before, mainly because Della is a rice worm at home. It ’s been too long, not many people remember the skill of small things ...
"Oh, this is ... eh, wait, Tavel, you try this first." I was about to lift my legs back, and suddenly remembered that I was still carrying some "strange" things, so I hurriedly touched it. , Shandora looked at me suspiciously until I found a flat metal box from my pocket. The metal box was as big as a cigarette case. After opening, it was three-quarters of green powder, and the powder was faint. Fluorescence, the texture seems to be between the real and the virtual, and the charm is slightly changed.
"This is ..." Shandora carefully took the metal box, dipped a bit of green fluorescent powder in her finger and put it in her mouth to taste it-she must try it when she met rare things, "a little Sweet, but not like anything I have ever seen, what is this? "
"When Della flew around, did you occasionally sprinkle some green light particles on the wings," I pointed to the small box of powder, "This is what Della fell off, I called it Della **** ... "
Shandora was stupid all of a sudden. After a long time, she silently looked at the green powder that was almost full of boxes, and then looked up at me: "A'Jun, how often do you usually have to be free?"
I: "... I was curious from the beginning and wanted to see what was spilled on the Della. At the beginning, the light powder would disappear for a long time, but then I found a container made of star stone You can keep them for a long time, just collect ... "
I ca n’t say anything until half of the explanation, because it ca n’t solve the problem of how free I am—I’m free!
However, there is another important reason for me to collect these light powders, that is, I accidentally found that these light particles falling off the wings of Della soaked in water can cure cough ...
"Okay, at least now they are really useful," Shandora gave that box of green powder to Tavel with a weird expression. "Put this into a crystal container. According to the power of Della's, they should be able to Automatically activate the life body in a state of decline. "
I was reminded next to it: "Save it a little, Della has limited production capacity, so I can't get much in a day by throwing it in a centrifuge."
Tavel expression is very strange, Shandora expression is very strange, I think my expression should also be very strange, but the resurrection process can be continued-after all, we only have 24 hours at most, if this attempt also fails, then we We must quickly find a way to try other methods. But I don't know whether it is intuition or something is working, I think there should be no problem this time.
Shandora just felt the weak reaction of the ancestor ’s soul. The latter has recovered to a level that can be perceived. This shows that the ancestor ’s “spirit” is intact, and Tavel has repaired the ancestor ’s body before that time. The meat is both, and the two just lack life power to "activate" it. I believe I ca n’t find anything more life than the stuff on Della. These powders will definitely work-anyway, if I do n’t use it, I will catch Della. The little things have been long enough as rice bugs. Too.
The green fluorescence of appeared in the crystal coffin is almost imperceptible. Tavel blows a little trace of life dust into the container. She uses very little and the operation is very careful-not entirely because of following my advice "Economic use" is mainly concerned that the overly powerful life power will destroy the ancestor's physical fetus. The power of Della's is not a good thing for mortals. If it is directly touched without dilution, any thing dropped on the small things can be enough for a mortal to burn into ash.
Tavel tries to control the dosage to the extent that the mortal body can bear, and then we anxiously wait for the result.
The little green powder slowly dissipated after leaving the special astral stone box, and the green light in the crystal coffin faded at a rate visible to the naked eye. The dust is not a physical substance, but the product of the energy emitted from Della and some "extraordinary concept" together. I have calculated that if it is not stored in a Starstone container, it will take about thirty minutes after leaving Della's body Evaporate to no point-the powder in the crystal coffin dissipates faster.
This shows that they are acting on the remains of their ancestors, thus accelerating their consumption.
"There is a reaction!" The first one to notice the situation is Shandora. She has been paying attention to the "starting process" of the spirit and body of the ancestors. Now she feels that this body is reacting from a pile of silently reacting chemicals It gradually became a real life, "The soul of the ancestor is in awakening, I can feel it gradually shape from the fuzzy state ..."
I also feel that the body in front of me has changed. Although I do n’t have Shandora's Perception Ability, but ... it ’s like you look at a chemical tank and look at a person. When you see these dozens of kilograms of substance from a pile of nothing When the reactant of life becomes an individual with life, you will also feel subtle changes ——
This should be the "life power" that Della often says, I think so.
The body in the crystal coffin twitched and then opened eyes.
