Chapter 67 Consciousness and Energy

A conscious energy may require another consciousness to generate.

Lin currently thinks so.

These 'brain spirits' may be creatures that were born in a consciousness and then live independently...

And the cubs of the virtual people may be the key to generating them.

As long as there is a brain and a spike, it should be able to generate a 'brain spirit'.

This should also be the main purpose for them to catch the cubs. Although the brain spirits can survive independently, they should be born from a certain brain, just like Susumi.

Lin felt that the specific situation was this: they grabbed Xumin's cub, and then stabbed a spike in the cub's brain, and the spike would slowly grow together with the cub's brain. Slowly suck something out of the pup's brain.

And this kind of thing will grow into a brain spirit.

What are they absorbing? Maybe it can be called 'consciousness', just like plants grow and absorb nutrients from the ground. In the normal process of this thorn, they will also absorb the consciousness in the brains of virtual people.

This 'consciousness' is not the same as brain waves, it is something else, an energy that has not yet been fully discovered.

As the pup grows, it may absorb more and more, eventually forming a brain spirit.

This may be the way brain spirits reproduce. They take the consciousness out of the brains of other creatures and 'independent' it.

This approach is very similar to Lin's transfer of Susumi's consciousness, but Lin has not been able to create an independent consciousness. There's definitely something special here that hasn't been figured out yet.

If you think so. Perhaps only individual creatures are more suitable for generating brain spirits. And different creatures will generate a variety of different brain spirits.

Those brain spirits that invaded the brains of other imaginary people may be 'low-level species', and there may be "high-level species" brain spirits behind them to command.

If, that's the case...

Well, this race is really interesting... but it's also quite dangerous, and they can't be dealt with in a normal way.

In addition to their activities in the illusory dreamland, they also make quite a weapon outside, the kind of flash they like to use.

It can be temporarily called 'stellar flash', which is a common high-temperature material in stars. I don't know how they are produced. It may just heat something to a very high temperature and then imprison it. It is necessary When to launch again? This aspect must also be studied.

In addition to stellar flashes, they also emit another kind of high-temperature material, which, while looking similar to stellar flashes, is actually quite different.

This type of attack does not cause excess damage and is suitable for dealing with specific targets.

Moreover, they also recognize Lin's arms and cells. Lin speculates that the 'brain spirit' can even come out of a container such as a brain, which is how they should have discovered the spy before. A brain spirit came out to probe alone and found that the spy's cells were different.

But Lynn felt that they might not be out alone for long.

If you think about it this way... this may be the reason why they invaded the Voidmin Cue Ball. They want to use the Voidmin to create more brain spirits. The previous cubs may just be a test. If they successfully capture the Voidmin Cue Ball, they estimate that Will use a large number of cubs to grow brain spirits.

Why a puppy? It is estimated that the adult imaginary brain has grown, and there is too much noise in it, so it is no longer suitable for the brain spirit.

Only cubs, their brains are very 'pure'.

In a word, all this is just speculation. In fact, Lin does not know what is going on. Lin has to see the whole process to fully understand what is going on. Therefore, it is necessary to let the spy's brain and the thorn on the head share the same Keep growing and see how it turns out.

Until then, the kind of crumb that needs to keep the spines going.

The composition of the thorn cannot be found on the Void Cue Ball. It should be a substance similar to metal. Although Lin has found some similar substances on other tumblers, such as the Lost Star, it is not here. Might take the spy's head to the Lost Star...

So, how about catching a grown-up brain spirit?

Lin felt that the Black Metal Corps used a certain method to inject a brain spirit into the virtual people who joined them, and then the brain spirit would guide the virtual people to do things.

Therefore, it is possible that every member of the black metal group has a brain spirit in the brain.

Although Lin thinks this method is not very good, because even if she catches a 'living' brain spirit, she doesn't know how to study it. What Lin wants to see is the growth process of the brain spirit, so that she can better understand them.

However, it's okay to grab one and take a look.

And Lin has now come to their base.

A phantom is standing under a huge building. This phantom is a spy. Lin has now spread a large number of pom-poms throughout the city, looking for nutrients that can be used to create more spies and pom-poms. .

Although there are almost unbelievably many laws of the imaginary people, the crime is still very rampant. Not to mention those single-citizen crimes, there are also many large-scale criminal groups, and there are criminals in the dark corners of various cities. Gathering point, this is one place.

It looks like a large warehouse, and it is very old. There are many metal sheets used for repairs on it. The rust marks are also all over the building. Even in a densely populated city, there are no people in this place. come over.

Therefore, it is very suitable as a 'harboring spot'. Recently, due to the surge in the number of virtual people who joined the black metal group, there are places where they gather.

The spy stepped forward and knocked on the door of the warehouse.

"Who is it? Say the code." A voice came from inside, and at the same time, a small opening was opened in the door, and Lin found a pair of eyes looking at it.

The spy said: "The courier."

"Very well, you can come in."

At the same time, the door opened, and Lin saw a Xumin dressed in black standing at the door and said, "Don't look around when you go in, come out as soon as you're done, you know... ah, ah, what are you doing!"

The spy grabbed the phantom's face with one hand and dragged it out on the ground.

"Ah ah ah! Let it go!" The phantom struggled desperately, but its strength was not strong enough. It suddenly pulled out a small weapon and aimed at the spy a few times.

'Bang bang bang! 'After the three shots, the spy had a few more holes in his head, and the spy still dragged it to the other side of the warehouse. The warehouse was not far from the sea. After dragging it to the sea, the spy continued. He threw it down and jumped in.

This is a rare place where no breeding factory is built, but Lin believes that the water here is too turbid, and even the filter device of the factory is difficult to handle.

The spy dragged it to a cave on the bottom of the sea. There is air in this cave, which was dug by Lin. In short, let's study it here first.

If it is a member of the Black Metal Corps, it should have a brain in its head.

On the other side, Lin is also going to find the material for the thorns to grow in the brains of the young spy.

Go directly to attack the black metal to get it? This is unlikely, and the number of troops here is not enough, but Lin found that there seems to be another place.

That's... the black market.

The black market is a place where things that are prohibited from being sold on the market are sold... Lin thinks so. In fact, the extinction of many species on the Void Cue Ball has a lot to do with this place.

Because some species are protected and prohibited from selling anything related to them, they are still being bought and sold in the black market.

And Lin's other spy also came here. There are many different types of black market, but the place that Lin went to was just like its name, it was a small dark space.

The spy is now holding a black stone in his hands, and Lin is examining it carefully.

On this stone, some substances that can be used as thorn nutrients are mixed...

"Do you want this?" said a phantom who stood in front of the spy. "This is the best product I got recently."

"No, the content is too low." The spy said, "Take another one and see."

"This is still low?" The illusory citizen exclaimed: "This is high-purity... Forget it, you, go get it the highest one."

"Yes." The other imaginary citizen next to it walked away, and after a while, it brought another one to the spy and said, "This is our treasure here, and there is no other place."

The spy took the stone and began to monitor.

The ingredients tested by Lin are different from the purity that Xumin said. This kind of stone is called 'Addiction Stone'. It is said that after being processed in a certain way, it can continue to emit a special 'feeling'. This kind of radiation will make the virtual people have an extreme sense of happiness, and it will also be addictive.

Of course, the higher the purity, the better the effect, but Lin just wants to detect the 'black metal' component in it, which has nothing to do with the purity...

The black metal ingredient can be used as the nourishment for the growth of thorns, but this is too low, each addiction stone seems to contain more or less, but even if all add up, it is not enough for the thorn to accompany the spy pup to grow into adulthood.

The spy put down the stone and asked the two imaginary people in front, "Where did you get this?"

"Of course it's the Nova Mine." The dummy replied, "It's shipped directly from the mine to the original."

It sure is there...

"I don't want it anymore." After dropping this sentence, the spy walked out.

Nova Mine is a place where the Void Mines specially use to collect Void veins. There should be a lot of such things there. Then, if you should go to the origin, you can directly get a lot of black metal components.

However, I wonder if the virtual people can withstand the attack of black metal during the period when Lin observed its growth? (To be continued..)
