Steel steam and flame

"It seems that everyone is not a good person. But this is in line with your style of doing things as a member of the Knight King class. If you can use extreme power to solve problems, you will not consider other methods." Cassia sighed with a smile.

Perkinz replied matter-of-factly: "You should feel it now. As your surgical stage improves, it's as if some of the limitations implanted in your body since birth have disappeared one by one - the way you think and the way you do things. It’s different from the first-stage, second-stage surgery, etc.”

"Don't worry, I tell you from my own experience that this phenomenon is very common. Perhaps the reason is that the brain is fully developed again and evolves with the level of life. But the main reason is still for ordinary people, stage three and below As far as surgeons are concerned, the power level of high-level surgeons exceeds too much, and the bioelectric induction force field causes high-level surgeons to subtly change their cognition and way of thinking."

"For me personally, fear of trouble is always the mentality that everyone has to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. If you can handle something simply and conveniently, you will never take unnecessary steps. After the advanced stage, you will automatically have the power to participate and avoid disadvantages. A ticket to the game between forces, between countries, between continents, and even in the entire observable world. This ticket is also one of the main reasons why high-level surgeons unknowingly change. .”

Cassia thought for a while at this time: "Different information received and different focus will also lead to changes."

"Exactly!" Perkinz nodded and confirmed, "This is why Miss Hilary asked you to deal with the alliance's trivial matters as soon as possible and devote yourself to it. Don't think that you have enough energy and a lot of leisure time now to help the Knights. Solve the obstacles with the minor leagues and so on, and all the same in the future, there will be time and energy.”

"The same situation won't happen again. The information you think about and accept will be different in the future. All you can do is look down from time to time, that's all."

Seeing that Cassia didn't speak, Perkins shrugged, "You are in the same situation as Experimental Subject Zero. You can go to the fourth stage at any time, but there are seemingly no obstacles in the process. It's a normal phenomenon, Hillary Miss Li said it, so I won’t make any further explanations.”

"You asked me whether the key to reaching the fourth stage lies in the spiritual body? The answer I gave at that time was 'yes'. Later I recalled how I went to the fourth stage, the fifth stage, and even became a true second type of life. In the whole process, that answer doesn’t seem to be that accurate.”

"The answer is still 'yes'. I will add a few more words here, which is an explanation compiled after recalling it."

"Thank you in advance." Cassia said with sincere gratitude.

Perkinz waved his hand, "Just to keep you from stopping as you enter the higher stage. Time is running out, so if we can speed up a little bit now, even if it can't influence the outcome, it can at least bring comfort."

"Well..., the key point is indeed the spiritual body, but it is not the evolution or transformation of the spiritual body. You have seen my spiritual body. Except that my spiritual power is much more than yours, there is actually no difference. From the third stage to the fifth stage, after that The second type of life, the spiritual body is roughly the same. I thought about it for a long time and thought that using 'acceptance' to describe it might be just right."

"When you first became a surgeon, during the first stage of surgery, someone should have told you that the essence of surgery is artificial selection and evolution, right? Relying on your own strength to accelerate the evolution that takes a long time. And in the fourth stage, you and ordinary people Humans, low-level operators, have officially become reproductively isolated, and can be regarded as becoming an incomplete new species - precisely because the time for artificial selection to evolve is very short, they have not yet accepted their own changes and evolution."

"After all, high-level surgeons, except for their physical appearance, have nothing to do with humans." Peckins sighed, "You are an example. The heart becomes an energy conversion structure, although it performs circulation The function of blood, but this is just a disguise you deliberately made to deceive the eyes of the enemy. Here is a question for you, in your subconscious, the energy conversion structure is called the 'heart', right?"

Cassia looked at her chest, and there was always a regular beating. If he is willing, he can simulate various levels of beating rate and intensity to cope with heart conditions under different levels of consumption. Use your fisted right hand to gently tap your heart, making a dull sound of "dong dong".

The body only feels like being beaten, nothing else. But based on what Perkinz had just said, he immediately realized that when his mind was processing the information of "fist hammering the heart", he did indeed regard the energy conversion structure as the heart, and subconsciously, there was also an instant after it appeared. The sense of danger disappears. And this sense of danger is the reflex danger instinct when one senses a hammer blow to the heart.

Is imagination limiting its own development? Knowing what Perkins wanted to express, many of the questions he had after getting the new body were quickly answered one by one.

The evolution of high-level surgeons only involves a single individual, so the only thing that limits their evolution is the individual itself.

"Considering the surgeon as a machine, the mental body and what you call 'accepting evolution' are the programs used to operate the machine and make it play a great role. The machine has been updated and changed several times, but the program is still the same. Now. , the program not only fails to make the machine function, but as one of the cores, it actually limits the function of the machine in every aspect during use?"

Perkinz nodded seriously. Regarding the improvement of the surgical stage, he did not dare to make any omissions or oversights in the explanation: "You have rich knowledge of steam dynamics. Let's use a liche as a simple analogy - if the liche wants to To obtain faster speeds, it is necessary to make the steam engine and the compression tank that stores steam bigger and better. Now, the steam engine and the compression storage tank meet the conditions, but the speed still does not increase. So we started to investigate the reason. "

"After searching for a while, I suddenly found that the size and strength of the steam pipes and matching control valves no longer meet the needs. Therefore, if you want to speed up the limousine, the pipes and valves need to be replaced together."

Cassia continued: "When the pipes and valves are replaced, you will find that the speed of the limo has indeed increased, but its weight has not reached the standard. Once the speed increases, it will feel light and airy. The control force of the steering wheel has also been reduced. A lot, not as sharp and responsive as before. The tires, axles, gears, and even the entire body are fine when the speed is slower, quiet, and the overall feeling of safety and stability is revealed. As the speed increases... "

"There is a chirping sound here, a rattling sound there. It used to be smooth and smooth, but now it suddenly vibrates irregularly? The excess steam was not discharged directly from the bottom of the car in the past. Why did the steam pour into the interior of the limousine when the speed increased?" Peckins said jokingly, with confusion on his face.

"Different species does not only refer to this body. The evolution of life will not be that simple. The three stages of surgery are actually more like strengthening preparations for evolution, preventing oneself from making small mistakes in the cruel evolution. Just lose your life.”

"From your description, the situation after high-level is even more troublesome. What I need to do now is just to lift the speed limit, replace the engine, storage tanks, pipes, etc., and optimize the control."

"Life is one." Peckinz concluded. "Advanced surgeons first allow one part of the body to evolve, and then use methods such as replenishing what is missing, and almost correcting deficiencies to promote the overall evolution. This is It’s the safest and most efficient way in the world.”

"According to you, the situations of Zero and me are still different." Cassia replied after thinking for a while. He knew that No. Zero had been dominated by dragons since his birth. For Zero, the dragon's limit is to reach the fifth stage after the age of twelve, while the four-stage limit of human surgeons does not exist on him. By analogy, what No. 0 needs to do is simply update components, without worrying about restrictions on programs and other aspects.

"When talking to smart people, there is absolutely countless evidence of being liked all the time. You are one of the evidences now. You don't need to explain too much, just provide a little information and the job is done." Knowing that Cassia has understood the key point, Perkins was impressed.

"He is indeed different from you. Your essence is human, and his essence... If Tovilest obtains the ruins slate I left behind and does not modify a lot of the information and technology on it, then the essence of No. 0 is Mainly dragons. In that case, you and he are indeed in different situations. But knowing the key points can speed up the time for him to reach the fourth stage."

"After I verify my approach, I will tell Zero immediately. But it will still take some time to complete the essential change in thinking."

"Knowing and doing it are always two different things. If it can be done easily, high-level surgeons will not be so rare compared to the huge base of surgeons. I am not worried about your situation, it is not of any concern to you. Not difficult."

The two turned around and looked behind them almost at the same time. Hilary stood on a small building in the distance and looked at them.

It's time to go.

"The best time is before the impact of the Red Star arrives. After that, many things will be delayed one after another." The two walked back.

"For you, this can definitely be done. The three uranium implants are the final guarantee for your preparation, right? It is mandatory to go to the fourth stage, in a way similar to being forced to change due to environmental influences, so that short-term Time enters the fourth stage of yourself, which in turn affects and changes yourself.”

"Retracing time? Or manipulating time so that my future self can talk to my current self?" Perkinz distinguished, "It feels like it can be used as material for my writing in the future."

"But if you can't avoid using this method, then you will never use it." Perkinz reminded seriously, "In the super-state, the members of the successor list at each stage also have similar methods to advance themselves to the next stage. The side effects are huge, and as long as you use it, it means you will be automatically removed from the list.”

Cassia tilted her head to look at Perkinz, who was also looking over. "You can directly name Cobro of the Nature Association. He has a name."

"I was one of the members of the list before." Pekinz emphasized his tone, but no longer meant to be solemn. "I have personally experienced and experienced it. So, you remain consistent and cautious, but they will treat you..." I really can't think of anything that can threaten you. But it's a very contradictory situation, because if you don't enter the fourth stage, you won't have any advantage against them who enter the fourth stage. But after you all enter the fourth stage, with Your performance in the southern forest two years ago..."

"Unbalanced contrast?"

"I don't think it's worth your while."

"But I think that entering the fourth stage requires determination. Not everyone has determination, even if he is a member of the roster. When there is always a little hope in front of you, determination will seem insignificant compared to this hope. Very weak." Cassia said with confidence, "In terms of combat experience, creating similar hopes that have been interfering with their determination, this kind of thing involves performance..."

"Well, I can't praise myself for being good at it, but if I objectively evaluate myself as 'not bad,' there should be no problem."

"Perhaps Ms. Hilary can give me answers and evidence about this." Perkins smiled.
