The world enters the age of myth

An expert used the optical microscope he carried to examine the neuron slices, shook his head and said: "There is a high probability that it is not a real brain."

"These nervous tissues should be similar to the backbone of animals, with some neurons hidden inside. These neurons alone are not enough to produce any intelligence, and may not be able to coordinate the normal operation of so many organs."

The normal operation of organs requires systematic regulation by the brain, even for paralyzed patients. The efferent nerves in the visceral nerve fibers are called "vegetative nerves" and are interconnected with the brain. The autonomic nervous system controls life-critical physiological functions, such as heartbeat, breathing, digestion, blood, metabolism, etc.

"What type of neurons these neurons are is still unknown."

"Another very important point is that the signal transmission speed of neurons is not very fast. The speed is only a hundred meters per second. This creature is so huge. From one end to the other, tens of thousands of kilometers apart, the signal transmission takes several hours. . How does it handle a delayed signal from a few hours ago?"

"But no matter what, along this spine, we can definitely find the location of the brain!"

The emergence of this news is simply exciting!

Soon, several soldiers dug out along the spine.

Many expedition experts were exhausted at this moment. They took advantage of the time when the soldiers were digging to return to the anti-gravity aircraft and rest for a few hours.

About six hours later.

The real brain was still not found, but three special nerve control centers were found.

This nerve control center is only the size of a human brain and looks similar to a human brain. It is full of dense folds. It is hidden among so many organs. It is really difficult to find it unless you are looking for it deliberately.

"These brains can't be real brains, right? If so, it means that the Devourer may have countless brains."

"No, no, it's too small. It's not a real brain. This brain-like thing can only mobilize the organs in a nearby area. This can explain the transmission speed of neurons."

"This is like the enteric nervous system in the human body, which is composed of neurons, neurosensors and proteins scattered in the tissues of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and colon."

Now, a structure similar to the "enteric nervous system" has been found, which is simply incredible.

Through continuous research and dissection, scientists are increasingly convinced that Devourer has a unique brain, because the neuronal structures found so far have too limited functions to produce linkage for the entire planet.

"The Devourer's reaction speed is not as fast as expected. After we dropped a large-yield hydrogen bomb, it took several hours for it to react and mobilize monsters around the world. If its intelligence is dispersed, distributed in a hive form , the reaction shouldn’t be like this.”

"It is precisely because its intelligence is concentrated and limited to the signal transmission of neurons that it will respond after several hours."

"And all nerve centers must be interconnected with the real brain."

It also means that these nerve centers guide the direction, which is the real brain!

As long as this brain is eliminated, it is very likely that the "devourer" itself will be eliminated!

After reaching this conclusion, people are very satisfied.

The Devourer is too huge, the size of an entire planet. Even with the guidance of these nervous systems, it will not be able to find its brain for a while.

In addition, this expedition took a long time, more than 30 hours, and many people showed tired expressions.

Lu Yiming's mental state is quite normal. With his physical condition, there will be no problem if he can persist for another 30 hours. But others were really exhausted. This weird environment, with frozen flesh and blood everywhere, and a large number of frozen monster specimens, caused great mental stress.

Lu Yiming waved his hand and said: "Let's go. The investigation this time has gone smoothly. The conclusion has been reached and the specimens have been collected. There is no need to stay for a long time. We will evacuate temporarily."

"The search for the brain cannot be completed in a short time. We still have some time."

"Yes!" No one expressed any objection.

The anti-gravity spacecraft quickly set off and returned to the Vostok fleet.

Everyone had a delicious meal first. People are like iron rice and steel.

Then fell asleep again.

Ten hours later, when most of the people had recovered their spirits, they gathered together and held a relevant meeting in the captain's room.

In response to this matter, Wang Zhaoyang, the captain of the Dongfang, had actually discussed this matter with Lu Yiming for a long time and prepared various plans.

What Lu Yiming means is that now that the refuges of both sides are about to be merged, the will of the people is very important.

"It is naturally a great thing to be able to resolve the deep hatred of all the people on the Orient."

Of course, Wang Zhaoyang also knew in his heart that this kind of thing could only be done within his own power, and there was nothing he could do if he couldn't do it.

Although he wanted to avenge the fallen soldiers, the most important thing now was to complete the transportation task quickly. It would not be a good thing to delay here.

So, after seeing everyone here, Wang Zhaoyang's first words were: "Everyone, our hibernation project is now completely ready."

"Except for 1,500 soldiers, all other civilians have hibernated. Currently, including the workers of the Unkai, there are 1,100 younger babies and their parents. The awake population is 6,000, which is slightly excessive. "

"With the help of the Unkai's defense power, it is enough to protect ourselves, but it is still far from enough to fight the remaining monsters on the planet."

"The number of nuclear bombs is not very large. We need to keep some of them just in case. The number of nuclear bombs that can be used is about 200. No more."

"In this case, our first task is to transport all the people to the City of Clouds as soon as possible. This is our top priority. Please remember this, long-term hibernation is harmful to the human body... There are still many newly born babies who have not yet hibernated, and they need to return to the arms of their parents as soon as possible."

The number of babies who have not yet hibernated is about a thousand. These children's physical condition does not allow hibernation and must be raised by their parents.

Suddenly, many soldiers became jealous and sat down without saying a word.

Things have priorities, and they understand this.

It's important to stay here to take revenge and relieve your anger, but what if something happens? What if another group of monsters comes to the Yang River?

However, when I think of my brothers who died in the war, my heart cannot calm down at all.

That's a life-and-death feud!

"On the other hand, all parasitic infected people must receive treatment as soon as possible. Although hibernation can delay the process of being parasitized, it is still necessary to arrive at the Capital of Clouds one day earlier. There will be better medical conditions by then. , and a better team of experts.”

Wang Zhaoyang sighed in his heart and said: "So, after discussion between the two of us, we decided that now is not the time to be impulsive, let's take three days. It can only be delayed for three days at most... We can't find this monster's brain in three days. We can only give up strategically."

"If we find this monster's brain, two hundred nuclear bombs would be enough to kill it."

"Changes will come later. We cannot stay here for a long time. Three days is the limit. Please know this."

The soldiers and expert teams present here have very complicated emotions.

Wang Zhaoyang's tone softened slightly, and he added: "Don't be too depressed, everyone. If it doesn't work, you can still come back in the future. Anyway, this planet will be frozen for decades, so don't be too anxious."

Lu Yiming sat next to him and said nothing.

He knew in his heart that if he left this time, he wouldn't know how long it would take to come back.

Every expedition of the Taihang Mountain requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and it is not without cost.

This expedition was mainly to find compatriots, not to fight an inexplicable monster. Finding compatriots can bring the strength of the entire civilization to a higher level, but fighting a monster, even a demon-level monster, does not bring much benefit. Instead, it consumes a lot of nuclear bombs.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the Taihang Mountain to go out to fight a specific monster...

The most important thing for the development of a civilization is rational planning. Otherwise, no matter how strong the national power of the City of Clouds is, it cannot afford extravagance and waste.

"Unless this monster can bring extremely high value, there will be a second chance to go out." Liu Xuwei, who was sitting on the side, also figured this out and whispered, "Otherwise, it is unlikely to come back in three to five years. .”

Unfortunately, "The Devourer" has not found much research value so far.

The transparent monsters it breeds cannot transfer the super power of "optical perspective", which is very embarrassing. As for other values, there is no way to find it for the time being... Maybe the specimen of a certain monster is valuable, but this kind of The probability is rare.

Therefore, the last three days of staying here are a more suitable and acceptable time.

"Yeah..." Lu Yiming nodded in agreement.

And with such an opportunity, all the soldiers of the Oriental also regained their fighting spirit. As long as the hope of revenge has not completely disappeared, there is always a chance!

Wang Zhaoyang's voice became louder: "In the last three days and 72 hours, the Yunhai's army will provide comprehensive support. Everyone, please act quickly!"

In the following time, the human side used all its action capabilities, and the two anti-gravity spacecraft went back and forth, collecting information everywhere.

At first, the experts' idea was to collect the distribution route of bone marrow and determine the location of the brain.
