The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Severe brain pain accompanied by a strong dizziness similar to a concussion, this was the first feeling 74328 felt after waking up, and before he could make any other reactions, the vomiting reaction caused by the dizziness began to work in his body, making him He vomited out everything in his stomach.

What was even worse was that his body was so weak right now that he didn't even have the strength to sit up, so he could only turn his head a little bit and vomited all the vomit on the side of his head.

After the vomiting reaction subsided, the dizziness in 74328's head eased a little, but the headache still existed, and because there was no check and balance of the dizziness, it became more intense.

"The first brain, check the abnormality of the brain." The strong physical discomfort caused 74328 to feel a little worried, prompting him to immediately order the first brain, which is in charge of controlling the body organs, to check the physical condition.

However, things didn't seem to develop as he thought. After he gave the order, his first sub-brain didn't respond, as if the first sub-brain had disappeared.

With a bad premonition in his heart, 74328 immediately began to order the second brain responsible for logical deduction and the third brain responsible for learning and organizing respectively, but the result was the same as before, without any response.

Just when he was at a loss, a large number of chaotic memory fragments flooded into his brain in an instant, which had a strong impact on his spirit and made the already painful brain even more painful.

This kind of pain can't be described in words. If it wasn't for his body being limp and weak, maybe he would have hit the wall and killed himself because of this intense pain.

The pain appeared quickly and disappeared quickly, like a wave. After passing this peak, it quickly weakened and returned to the normal level.

"Damn it!" After recovering, 74328 felt that his brain was filled with all kinds of messy memory fragments. He had to use the little thinking ability left to analyze the current situation, and soon he had the answer, and This answer was very bad for him, and it even made him break through the behavioral rules he had cultivated over the years, and he couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart.

Because he found that the severe pain in the brain, the disappearance of the three sub-brains, and the appearance of so many chaotic memory fragments in the brain, etc., all clearly point to a bad possibility, that is, the sub-brain collapse.

Since the appearance of split brain three hundred and forty-five years ago, there have been hundreds of billions of people using split brain to create sub-brains, and there are quite a few cases of sub-brain collapse. The Earth Federation has set up a special archive for this purpose. To collect and sort out the data of the sub-brain crashers.

As for the reason for the collapse of the secondary brain, there is still no public opinion. Some say that the secondary brain is overused. The phenomenon of secondary brain collapse is irreversible once it occurs.

The only way to solve the side effects of parabrain collapse is to reapply split brain and create a new parabrain.

However, the difficulty for an ordinary person to use brain splitting to create a sub-brain is completely different from the difficulty for a sub-brain crasher to use brain splitting to create a sub-brain. There are only two successful cases so far, and these two cases cannot be regarded as Successful, because the subbrain they created does not have any function of the subbrain.

Although there is no successful case, for the current 74328, he has no other way to go, because even he is called a robot, he is not confident that he can withstand the impact of the next wave of side effects.

So, after making a decision, the decisive 74328 began to skillfully use brain splitting to divide the brain neurons.

Brain splitting is a magical evolutionary method created by a mysterious scientist in the old age of the earth more than 300 years ago. This method includes not only mysticism, but also human sciences such as psychology and brain science. It can be said that This technology has enabled human beings to leapfrog a big step in evolution, from a single earth creature to a true cosmic race.

According to the records of the Earth Federation, the basic theory of brain splitting should have originated from a graduate thesis of a neuroscience student at Harvard Medical School.

In this paper, the student conducted an overall analysis of the utilization of brain domains in the human brain.

He thinks that the utilization of the human brain is very low, even the most intelligent people's brain utilization rate does not exceed 20%, and he believes that the reason for this situation is not that human beings use the other 80% It cannot be used, but because of the inert genes in all organisms, human beings cannot effectively use the other 80% of the brain.

The lazy gene was a new concept at that time. Some genetic scientists found that there is a common gene in the genome of all organisms including human beings. This gene can make organisms lazy, so scientists named it the lazy gene. .

Prior to this, most scientists believed that laziness was caused by personality, but after the discovery of the lazy gene, humans realized that it was the gene that was working.

And this kind of gene also directly affects the utilization rate of various organs of the creature. For example, as long as the mouth is opened, a certain creature can meet all the needs of survival and desire, then this kind of creature will no longer use other organs except the mouth. Organs are used efficiently.

The human brain is also affected by the inert gene. If human beings can meet the needs of current life with only less than 20% of the brain utilization rate, then the remaining 80% will not be used anymore. to take advantage of.

Some scientists on the earth, after discovering that the inert genes of human beings prevent human beings from using their bodies effectively, began to think of ways to solve this problem. Among them, there are many bold ideas to strip the inert genes from the body genome, but they all failed in the end. end.

This issue related to human evolution had a breakthrough more than 300 years ago, that is, 50 years before the establishment of the Earth Federation.

A mysterious scientist did not conduct research on inert genes like others, but bypassed the problems at the genetic level and directly aimed at the core part of the human brain, creating a brain splitting technique to remove the most ineffective use of the human body. The brain resources of the brain are split off and become a biological sub-brain that assists the main brain and controls the body.

In this way, the extra sub-brain not only allows humans to obtain unimaginable calculation capabilities similar to super quantum computers, but also enables humans to manage almost perfectly the various organs of their bodies like computer management hardware. In a short period of time, it has evolved to a level that was unimaginable before.

After the scientist created and perfected the split-brain technique, he directly disclosed it to all countries on the earth, so that anyone with access to the Internet can obtain the complete method of using the split-brain technique.

For all humans, split brain is a good thing, but for those in power, split brain is definitely a poison.

After all, in an era where everyone is like a dragon, those in power are no different from other people, and it is almost impossible to control others. Therefore, when the brain splitting technique was announced and confirmed effective by many people, the situation on the entire earth Then began to turmoil.

A protracted war has been waged between and within countries because of brain splitting, and no country is immune.

It wasn't until the earth was devastated by the war that everyone realized that if this continued, everyone would be doomed. In the end, all countries on the earth abandoned their previous suspicions, and human beings also abandoned their hatred, and established the only country on earth, the Earth Federation.

After the establishment of the Earth Federation, people discovered that they did not even know who the creator of the brain splitting technique was. The mystery surrounding this mystery has produced a lot of speculation, many of whom are conspiracy theorists.

For 74328, what is the purpose of the creator of split brain surgery to make it public, what is the significance of split brain surgery to human beings, etc. All issues are not what he needs to consider. In fact, he, as a creature of the Earth Federation, For weapons, most of the things that need to be considered are how to effectively hunt down and kill the enemy.

It is precisely because of the extraordinary endurance of the biological weapon that he was able to withstand the extreme pain, and under the influence of various adverse reactions, he was still able to successfully use the brain splitting technique to remove 20% of the idle brain nerves. The meta is separated and assembled into a new sub-brain.

"Function settings!"

"Body control!"

"Check your body!"

"Organize body data!"

"build database!"

"Adjust the brain structure!"

"Adjust memory cells!"

…………

At the moment when the secondary brain was formed, 74328 proficiently issued a series of instructions. According to the previous usage habits, the first secondary brain was classified as a body-controlling secondary brain, and began to check the physical condition.

At the same time, with the generation of the secondary brain, the severe pain and dizziness in the head also rapidly weakened like the ebb tide, because the other senses of the body weakened by the pain and dizziness also began to recover, and he began to perceive the external situation.

"War!" The restored sense of smell and hearing made 74328 instantly understand the environment he was in now, and he also had strong doubts in his heart.

Gunpowder smoke, gunshots, all kinds of chaotic shouts around, and all the information gathered from the sense of smell and hearing, all of them show that they are now on the battlefield.

However, the problem is that since the Earth Federation entered the interstellar era, gunpowder weapons have disappeared, and the weapons used by the army and individuals are all more convenient and powerful Gauss weapons, ion weapons, etc.

Gunpowder weapons have already become a private hobby collection like some other earth age items, and they will never be equipped and used on the battlefield on such a large scale as they are now.

Just when 74328 was about to open his eyes to look at the surrounding situation, a shell happened to hit not far from where he was, and the air wave generated by the explosion of the shell spread around, lifting him off the ground Going out, and then fell to the ground fiercely, a sharp pain in the abdomen came instantly.

The pain on his body not only didn't make 74328 feel scared, but instead awakened his combat instinct as a biological weapon, allowing him to skillfully adjust his body posture, weaken the compression of the injured part of the explosion just now, and avoid causing secondary damage.

However, it was obvious that his luck was not very good. Just when he was about to open his eyes to check the injuries on his body, a person suddenly appeared beside him, grabbed his arm, and threw It dragged hard, and after dragging for a certain distance, he put him down, then slapped his cheek roughly, peeled off his eyelids, and checked his condition.

The eyelids were forcibly peeled off, causing pain in the eyeballs that hadn't fully adapted to the situation, and 74328 couldn't help but burst into tears.

And when he felt the tears flow out, 74328 was even more horrified deep in his heart, because he was sure that as a biological weapon, after the eyeballs were modified, the lacrimal glands had been stripped, so it was impossible to shed tears.

After tears moistened the eyeballs and took away the adverse reaction caused by forcibly peeling off the eyelids, the blurred images reflected in the eyeballs also began to become clear.

The first thing that catches the eye is a bearded man with obvious Celtic features.

I saw that this person was wearing a torn military uniform. Judging from the style of the military uniform, it looked a bit like the British military uniform from World War I in the old days of the earth.

On the messy head is a military cap that is completely disproportionate to the size of the head. There is also a badge on the hat that should represent the army or the country, but 74328 has never seen such a weird badge, because the badge above The symbol turned out to be an octopus.

"*\u0026(...*\u0026%*"

After seeing that 74328 was sane, the soldier laughed a few times, then patted him on the shoulder like an acquaintance, and said a few words of encouragement in a language he had never heard , and then picked up a breech-loading gun that looked very old on the ground, and ran out of the bunker.

Because the line of sight is no longer blocked by people, 74328 can also clearly check the surrounding situation.

I saw that he was in a bunker built by a trench at the moment. This kind of trench was like a deep ditch trench in World War I. The bunker was built with logs on both sides of the deep ditch, and laid A layer of dirt.

The function of this bunker is only to cover a little dust falling from the air. It has no defensive power in itself, and can be easily destroyed with a single shell. At best, it can give people who stay in the bunker a psychological comfort.

At this moment, the bunker seemed to have become a frontline hospital. A large number of wounded patients similar to 74328 lay unsteadily in the bunker. Several people wearing strange masks who looked like doctors were checking the wounded patients.

Sweeping his gaze across the bunker, and understanding the surrounding situation, 74328 turned his gaze back to himself, and slightly lowered his head to look at his hands and body. When he found that the shape and skin color of his hands had completely changed, and he was wearing a military uniform he had never seen before, he began to realize that he might have encountered something almost legendary, time travel and rebirth.
