Humanity's Characteristic Technology?
Extremely Dangerous Technology!
They inexplicably mastered it, even though back in the Level 3 Civilization, these scientists from the Academy of Life Sciences claimed to have fully grasped its principles. And indeed, according to previous scientific theories, humans could indeed create artifacts that Mind Imprint onto consciousness.
However, after incorporating the Level 4 Civilization theory, the various side effects of these technologies became apparent.
Moreover, scientists from the Academy of Life Sciences told Yue Yuan that after years of research, they discovered that this technology was indeed a derivative technology of the Mental Consciousness field. However, they were still somewhat confused about the prospects of Mental Consciousness research after reaching the Level 4 Civilization, and did not know which direction to focus their efforts on.
In other words, they saw the flaws in the Mind Imprint technology but didn't know where to begin to address them. Despite broadening their horizons and increasing their knowledge, they failed to foresee potential directions for research in the related fields of Mental Consciousness.
This feeling is very unpleasant, as if the development of this field has reached its end. However, all scientists know that the field of Mental Consciousness is certainly not over, because they can still see the shortcomings of the Mind Imprint technology.
However, some scientists have put forward a different view. They believe that Mind Imprint technology is not flawed, but rather that it is inherently dangerous and could even destroy civilization.
The emergence of rhetoric about "extremely dangerous technology" has led scientists to re-examine Mind Imprint technology in hopes of figuring out whether its flaws are genuine or simply inherent.
Therefore, they conducted another thorough analysis of the Sentient Life forms of the vassal races who had been subjected to this technology, examining changes in their behavior, shifts in their thought processes, and reactions to the imprinting of their consciousness.
After various tests, a scientist had a sudden inspiration: he proposed that scientists from the Crimson Flame Civilization, the Kuntai People, the Nair People, or the Dog-Headed People learn this technology. They would be taught the entire technology, from its principles to its applications.
This proposal would certainly be rejected, without a doubt. Humanity is not so generous as to transfer technologies and theories possessed only by its own civilization to other races, not even vassal races.
However, this scientist put forward a reason that the New Government could not refuse. In his report, he only said one sentence, "Mind Imprint technology, or the realm of the spirit and soul, not be Characteristic Technology direction for humankind?"
Humanity learned about Characteristic Technology from the Awakeners, and then gained a deeper understanding of what these Characteristic Technology were at the rhombus-shaped crystal representing the Precursor. Since then, humanity has hoped that its race might also possess some unique abilities; otherwise, the Awakeners wouldn't have repeatedly warned humanity about its talents and against selling scientists.
But this matter has remained unresolved, and even humanity itself is unclear about what the Awakeners meant by the talent he spoke of back then.
Clearly, the scientist's words had greatly impressed all of humanity's high-ranking officials. However, they also remembered the words of the Precursor. When the Rhomboid Crystal mentioned Characteristic Technology, it vaguely stated that whether a race possesses unique characteristics would not be apparent in Low-level Civilization. At least, the Precursor only discovered that their race's understanding of certain technologies was unparalleled by other races after reaching Level Six Civilization.
When did humans achieve the technology of Mind Imprint?
That's Level 3 Civilization! That's Low-level Civilization!
Contrary to what the Precursor had said, humanity had never paid attention to this aspect until this discovery and the idea put forward by this scientist.
Perhaps humans are just that special?
Everyone thought the same way: what's the harm in giving it a try? Just find a few scientists from related fields within the vassal races to learn, and then you'll know. Humans are currently the leaders of the vassal races, so there's no fear of any defections or anything like that. Indeed, there's nothing to worry about.
Moreover, scientists from the Academy of Life Sciences have also stated that Mind Imprint technology is a derivative of research in the field of Mental Consciousness and cannot be considered an ultimate product. They believe that if it is truly Characteristic Technology, it should be some ultimate application after further in-depth research.
Since that's the case, let's give it a try.
This experiment completely baffled human scientists, because they discovered that while these scientists from the vassal races could learn the concepts, they struggled to understand them. Humans, even if they couldn't remember them initially, could quickly grasp them with a teacher's explanation, but these scientists from the Affiliated Races exhibited a painful learning experience, requiring them to rack their brains and ponder for countless days and nights to comprehend them.
That's interesting.
After discovering this phenomenon, the Academy of Life Sciences quickly realized that its experiment was not rigorous, because the group of scientists from vassal races they had called in to learn were basically top scientists who had participated in the vision of the Grand Unified Theory of Humanity. In other words, their vision was already at the level of Level 4 Civilization, and they understood the Grand Unified Theory.
Thus began another learning experiment targeting scientists of vassal Alien Race. This time, humanity only selected scientists who had not been exposed to the Grand Unified Theory. After selecting them, they were first given the scientific theories of the Level 3 Civilization to learn. Once they had all mastered them, they began to be taught various theories and applications of Mental Consciousness. Finally, they were taught the vast knowledge concept system and technical details of the implementation of the Mind Imprint technology.
At this point, human scientists discovered that the scientists from these vassal races could only barely understand what they were saying. Even though it was a concept that was easy to understand, they showed expressions of incomprehension. Some vassal race scientists even questioned the human scientists, asking which ancient ruins the humans had dug up as advanced technological information.
This result truly shocked the scientific community.
Indeed, the scientists of the vassal races can understand and learn, but their performance is far less effortless than that of humans in comprehending these related Mind Imprint, technological concepts, and ideas.
At that moment, the entire scientific community realized what this meant.
Mind Imprint technology is indeed a derivative technology of the field of Mental Consciousness, and further in-depth research in the field of Mental Consciousness will most likely lead to the development of Characteristic Technology!
Extremely dangerous technology!
Characteristic Technology!
But that shouldn't be the case. If Mind Imprint technology is a prerequisite for humans to master certain Characteristic Technology, how would the Awakeners know about it? You have to remember that when we first encountered the Awakeners, humanity wasn't even Level 3 Civilization yet!
The scientific community still has many speculations and mysteries surrounding Mind Imprint technology. However, this discovery has ignited a greater passion for research into the realm of Mental Consciousness and raised vigilance regarding Mind Imprint technology to a new level.
