Chapter 361 Why Doesn’t a Big Country Respect Martial Ethics? (5K Votes Requested, Please Follow Up)
After learning that Cruz had woken up, Luo Yao flew from the research institute to his laboratory.
When he appeared in the Cruz ward, Shan Xing and other leaders were already outside the ward door.
"Why don't you go in?" Luo Yao was stunned when he saw them all standing outside the ward door, looking inside through the glass on the door.
"Kluth is too aggressive. We can't be sure whether Kluth's nerves have returned to normal now, so I suggest the leaders not to go in yet." The researcher next to him replied.
After Luo Yao heard this, he frowned and looked at the data on the detection equipment.
Luo Yao scanned the data on the device with sharp eyes.
These data are a direct reflection of Clouse's recovery after the brain-computer interface, and they speak volumes better than any words can.
"The data shows that his nerve activity has returned to normal levels." Luo Yao said solemnly, "We cannot deny the success of the entire operation just because of his temporary aggression."
The researcher looked troubled.
She understands everything.
But the people in front of her were all big bosses. How dare she let them in?
Isn't this nonsense?
Something happened and she couldn't bear the responsibility!
"Academician Luo, I understand what you mean, but from a safety perspective, we should still proceed with caution." The researcher said tentatively, "How about we let Cruz stabilize his mood first, and then conduct further inspections?"
Luo Yao looked at the researcher and then at the leaders next to him.
He suddenly understood the researcher's concerns, but he trusted his own judgment.
He glanced at the data on the device again and confirmed that Cruz's neural activity had returned to normal.
"In this way, I can do a test to confirm that Cruz has returned to normal."
Zheng Yang on the side asked: "Gong Luo, do you need to go in for this test?"
"No need." He turned to the researcher and asked her to find a whiteboard and pen and bring them to the ward.
After everything was done, he turned around and walked to the console beside him. His fingers were operating quickly on the touch screen. Soon, it was connected to Cruz's brain-computer interface device, and Luo Yao brought up Cruz's brain. radio wave data and start sending a series of preset instructions.
"These instructions will activate Cruz's brain-computer interface and allow him to perform some simple actions." Luo Yao explained, "Through these actions, we can determine whether his neural activity has returned to normal."
Everyone watched the data changes on the screen nervously and expectantly. Soon, Cruz's brain waves began to respond. His fingers moved slightly on the hospital bed, then his arms, and finally his legs. Every movement perfectly matches the instructions without any deviation.
Luo Yao continued to issue instructions to Cruz through the brain-computer interface. At this time, Shan Xing and others saw Cruz getting up in the ward. They saw him slowly walking to the whiteboard and writing something on it with a pen.
Everyone waited with bated breath, their eyes fixed on every movement on the whiteboard. Cruz held the pen, and every movement looked so serious, as if he was completing a vital task.
"What is he doing?" Shan Xing couldn't help but ask.
From their perspective, they cannot see what is on the whiteboard.
Luo Yao smiled slightly and did not answer immediately. Instead, he quietly observed the data on the screen and Cruz in the ward. He saw Cruz writing on the whiteboard. He sometimes thought and sometimes wrote, and he wrote nearly half of it. hours of time.
After a while, Cruz slowly walked aside and revealed the content on the whiteboard.
Shan Xing exclaimed.
"Damn it, why are they all numbers and formulas?"
Luo Yao nodded and explained: "Yes, these are the celestial motion data calculated by Cruz through the brain-computer interface."
Everyone came closer and carefully looked at the content on the whiteboard, only to see that it was densely filled with various complex numbers and letters.
"This... this is unbelievable!" Zheng Yang exclaimed, "Can Cruz actually perform such complex calculations through a brain-computer interface?"
"It used to be impossible, but now it is."
"This is all due to the implanted chip, which contains a lot of knowledge about celestial bodies, but his calculation is still wrong."
Luo Yao said sadly.
"Oh? Wrong?" Zheng Yang asked doubtfully, "What's wrong? Why didn't I see it?"
Luo Yao pointed to a formula on the whiteboard and said: "Look here, there is a small error in the derivation of this formula. When Cruz calculated the motion trajectory of a celestial body, he used the wrong gravitational constant. This may be Because during the process of transmitting data through the brain-computer interface, his understanding of a certain parameter was deviated."
"It seems that Cruz's mind is still not smart enough."
Seeing Luo Yao's regretful look, the leaders were helpless.
According to common sense, Cruz's operation has been very successful up to this point.
After all, it is a huge breakthrough for an ordinary astronaut to complete such complex calculations through a brain-computer interface!
Is Luo Yao asking too much?
"Gong Luo, everyone's brain has its own limits."
Shan Xing's words reminded Luo Yao.
"President You is right, I have to find a smarter brain to do the experiment next time." Luo Yao said thoughtfully.
Shan Xing:? ? ?
Is that what I meant just now?
Why are you still over-understanding!
Shan Xing was tired and didn't want to talk.
Finally, it was Zheng Yang who spoke: "Let's discuss this issue later. Human experiments are still subject to many restrictions, so Gong Luo had better be cautious."
"In a situation like Cruz's, is there any way to improve intelligence by upgrading the chip content?"
Luo Yao shook his head.
"The current brain computer chip is specially made, and due to the material and size, the memory is very small."
"Can inserting more chips solve the problem?" Zheng Yang asked curiously.
Luo Yao glanced at him, hesitated for a second and then spoke: "Do you think humans are the card slots of computers? You can insert as many chips as you want?"
Zheng Yang:......
Well, he found out that their Academician Luo is not that crazy.
Zheng Yang touched his nose in embarrassment, and then said seriously: "Gong Luo, if Cruz is fine, should we perform surgery on Wang Ying next?"
Luo Yao thought of Wang Ying's right hand that was still unable to move and nodded.
"Yes, Wang Ying's surgery is scheduled for next week." Luo Yao replied affirmatively, "Her condition is more complicated than Cruz's, and we need more time to prepare."
"Then what preparations do we need to make?" Zheng Yang asked.
Luo Yao thought for a moment and said: "First of all, we need to conduct a comprehensive assessment of Wang Ying's physical condition to ensure that her body can withstand the surgery. Secondly, we need to further optimize the brain-computer interface chip to adapt to Wang Ying's condition. Depending on the situation, we also need to consider replacing her arms with titanium alloy ones."
Everyone was stunned.
Zheng Yang asked: "Can't her own arm work? She is a girl, and having a titanium alloy arm may have an impact on her future life."
Luo Yao shook his head slightly and explained: "I understand your concerns, but what we need to consider is Wang Ying's physical condition and the recovery of her arm."
"Her right hand has been paralyzed for a long time, and the muscles and nerves have been severely damaged. Even if some functions are restored through brain-computer interface technology, her arm itself may no longer be able to support daily activities."
"Although the titanium alloy arm sounds a bit unusual, it is very close to a real arm in function and appearance. More importantly, it has higher durability and flexibility, which can help Wang Ying recover better. The ability to take care of oneself." Luo Yao further explained.
Zheng Yang nodded. He understood what Luo Yao meant, but he was still a little worried: "Can Wang Ying accept such a change? This may have a great impact on her psychology."
Luo Yao sighed and admitted: "Indeed, this is an issue that we need to seriously consider. I will communicate with Wang Ying with the psychiatrist to explain the necessity and benefits of this decision and help her be mentally prepared."
He paused and continued: "At the same time, we will also try our best to optimize the appearance and function to make the titanium alloy arm closer to the real arm and reduce Wang Ying's discomfort. After all, our goal is to help It restores her health rather than putting her in more pain."
After listening to Luo Yao's explanation, everyone's worries did not lessen.
Let Luo Yao provide psychological counseling to Wang Ying? !
They are more worried about Wang Ying's condition, okay?
"Gong Luo, I can't trouble you with such trivial matters as psychological counseling. You have worked hard during this period, so it's important to take a good rest."
Faced with Shan Xing's kindness, Luo Yao simply refused to accept it.
"I'm not tired. With the AI medical cabin, I'm full of energy every day now."
Shan Xing was speechless. For the sake of Wang Ying's mental health, he had to bite the bullet and continue, "Currently, Academician Zhao of the Academy of Geological Sciences is studying the soil specimens brought back by Clouse and others. Isn't Academician Luo curious about what's on them?"
Luo Yao's eyes immediately lit up. He was always full of curiosity about unknown things.
"Okay, then I'll go see Academician Zhao. I'll give Wang Ying's plan to the research team, and they will implement it according to the plan."
Seeing that Luo Yao gave up the idea of providing psychological counseling to Wang Ying, the leaders were relieved.
After Luo Yao observed outside Cruz's ward for several days, he received a piece of news.
Something was found in the Martian soil.
Now Luo Yao has no choice but to go to the Academy of Geological Sciences.
The Academy of Geological Sciences is located in the west district of the capital. There is no traffic jam in the capital every day, so Luo Yao still flew the Baidi aircraft in the direction of the Academy of Geological Sciences.
Now that Luo Yao is traveling, he knows to inform the control tower and the people at the destination to avoid causing unnecessary confusion again.
The White Emperor plane pierced the sky like a silver lightning, leaving a bright track in the blue sky. Citizens in the capital stopped to look up, some took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and others were amazed.
For this busy city, such a scene is not common, not to mention that they know that the only person who can open Baidi in the capital is the legendary scientist Luo Yao.
The plane landed slowly on the lawn of the Academy of Geological Sciences. Luo Yao stepped off the plane and was greeted by Academician Zhao and a group of enthusiastic scientific researchers.
Academician Zhao looked at the lawn that was overwhelmed by Bai Di with confusion, and said: "Academician Luo, you are really honored to come here. Our lawn of the Academy of Geological Sciences is honored!" Although Academician Zhao felt a little sorry for the lawn that she carefully cared for. Lawn, but now she can't care about that much.
Luo Yao had no idea what he had done. After greeting Academician Zhao, he asked, "Academician Zhao, how is the current progress of the research on soil samples?"
"I heard you found something up there?"
After hearing this, Academician Zhao nodded solemnly. After taking a deep breath, he slowly said: "Yes, Academician Luo, we did find bacteria in the soil samples. These bacteria are related to those already on Blue Star." They are different from any known species of bacteria and have unique morphological and physiological characteristics."
When Luo Yao heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. He knew the important role of bacteria in the ecosystem and the scientific value that unknown bacteria might bring.
He asked: "Can you elaborate on the characteristics of these bacteria? Does it pose a potential threat to the Blue Star ecosystem? Can this prove the existence of life on Mars?"
After Academician Zhao brought Luo Yao to the laboratory, he said: "Academician Luo, the characteristics of these bacteria are indeed very unique."
"Their morphology is significantly different from the bacteria on Blue Star, and their cell structure is more complex. After preliminary analysis, we found that they have strong adaptability to extreme environments and can survive harsh conditions such as high radiation, low temperature, and low pressure. survive and reproduce.”
When Academician Zhao said this, worry flashed across his face.
Being able to survive and thrive in harsh conditions such as high radiation, low temperature, and low pressure means that this bacteria is extremely difficult to kill.
She doesn't know now if they were right to bring these bacteria back to Blue Star.
"In addition, functionally, these bacteria have unique metabolic pathways. They seem to be able to use special compounds in soil samples to grow and reproduce. This metabolic method has not yet been discovered on Blue Star, providing us with new research directions.
However, this also raises our concerns about its potential risks. "There was a hint of solemnity in Academician Zhao's voice.
She paused and seemed to be thinking about how to describe this problem more accurately, "Academician Luo, our current understanding of the biological characteristics of these bacteria is very limited. Their adaptability on the blue star, their ability to spread, and their effects on other organisms. Including humans, the possible impact is still unknown.”
“This unknown nature makes it impossible to ignore possible risks.”
Luo Yao is well aware of the double-edged sword nature of scientific research. On the one hand, it may bring about major scientific breakthroughs, but on the other hand, it may also bring about unforeseen consequences.
Especially like this alien material.
Luo Yao took the sample handed over by Academician Zhao, placed it on the stage of the scanning electron microscope, adjusted the observation angle, and turned on the equipment.
As the electron microscope was started, a thin and bright electron beam began to slowly sweep across the surface of the sample, and the image on the screen gradually became clearer, showing a strange scene in the microscopic world.
In this magnified field of view countless times, Luo Yao saw the bacteria from Mars. Their shape was completely different from the bacteria on the blue star, showing a strange and complex structure.
Each bacterium is like a small spiral, with fine lines and sharp protrusions covering its surface.
Luo Yao felt a little scared for the first time.
This gadget looks so weird. Luo Yao was the first one not to believe it.
The only good thing is that they are not active.
This suddenly discovered bacterium was named "Xianyu 001".
The reason for this name is that Luo Yao and others hope that this bacteria will continue to maintain its current level of activity, that is, in a salted fish state, and never fully wake up.
Hua Guo did not intend to hide the discovery of Xianyu 001, so Shan Xing called Bill.
"Mr. Bill, now I'm going to tell you a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which one are you going to hear first?"
When Bill heard what Shan Xing said, his heart skipped a beat: "Isn't Cruz dead?"
"I tell you, if your experiments lead to Cruz's death, you will be responsible!"
Shan Xing sneered and said: "Mr. Bill, the experts you sent have said that no one can solve Cruz's condition except us, so your worries are completely unnecessary."
"The good news is that Clouse is now back to normal."
Bill was overjoyed and said, "Then we will send someone to pick him up immediately."
"Are you sure you want to pick him up?"
"Of course! He is one of ours, of course we have to pick him up. In addition to him, we also have to pick up Carter and Tucker!"
Bill and the old man agreed that as soon as Cruz returned to normal, they would take him back to China so that they could take advantage of this opportunity to master China's brain-computer technology.
"That's no problem, but I also want to convey some secret information to you." Shan Xing continued as if he was unaware of the other party's intentions.
Bill felt a little relieved and asked doubtfully: "What bad news?"
"The soil samples your people brought back contain active bacteria. We don't know yet whether the three of them are infected."
Bill:…
Shet!
You should have said this earlier!
If I had known this, I wouldn't have said that I was going to pick up the three of them!
"You mean, they might have been infected by bacteria?" Bill's voice was trembling. He tried his best to control his emotions, but the uneasiness in his voice was still difficult to conceal.
Shan Xing said in a serious tone: "Yes, we are still conducting detailed testing and analysis, and we cannot determine whether they have been infected. But considering the unknown nature and potential risks of these bacteria, you cannot take it lightly."
Bill swallowed his saliva and said, "President, can I retract what I just said? It is best for those three people to stay in your laboratory at the moment."
Shan Xing had long known that Bill would be like this, and he argued with Bill for many rounds. Finally, Shan Xing proposed that they accept the three of Clouse, but they would need 30 billion ugly coins.
Facing the lonely lion, Bill refused.
In the end, Shanxing complained to the joint meeting through the representatives of the joint meeting.
When he heard from the co-president, Bill was furious.
"Fake, why doesn't a big country respect martial ethics?"
