Chapter 543: Development in Reverse - Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

On the screen of the "mainframe," lines of text were rapidly refreshing, and within a few breaths, the general outline of this technology was clearly explained.

Simply put, this is a "large-scale model of personality memory" based on the "Electronic Brain Project".

Personality models are very common. Every bionic chip or personality-assisting chip requires such a personality model to realize an artificial personality.

However, the "personality memory model" is very rare, and it can even be said that it was the first creation of this genius scientist.

Human memory is like sand in a funnel; as we age, past memories continue to fall away.

Human memory is like a 'system cache,' 'log file,' or 'temporary file.' Every so often, it needs to be cleaned up by a 'human body manager,' otherwise the memory will become increasingly large, the system will become increasingly sluggish, and one day, it will 'freeze' and crash.

Therefore, the number of "memory files" that a person can currently access is very small. This is due to a self-protection mechanism. Photographic memory is not an advantage, but rather a disease called "neurodevelopmental disorder".

However, the "consciousness package" technology breaks through the limitations of this human body system.

It is based on the massive computing power brought about by the "Electronic Brain Project," which is powerful enough to compress a person's entire life's memories into a data packet.

"... and the existence of this data packet will bring about a very, very wonderful result."

"The 'personality replication' that only the super-rich can enjoy will be available to everyone. In other words, if we succeed, everyone will be immortal!"

Despite being abandoned, "Main Brain" still spoke with a touch of fervor.

Unfortunately, the situation was too critical, and no one else could appreciate the wonder of this technology like him.

"Get to the point!" The scorpion's face held a dangerous expression.

"As the founder of 'Consciousness Package,' Dou's 'Data Personality' will be embedded in the underlying architecture of this project."

The scorpion finally understood.

Super-rich people can have many clones, but there is a limit to how many clones they can have, usually no more than 9.

Furthermore, each time a clone is created, the "human brain system" suffers a certain degree of damage.

Sometimes, if you copy too much, you might even be swallowed up by the "corporate will" and become a slave to the company.

Therefore, this seemingly invincible technology actually has significant flaws.

However, she felt a deep tremor from the other person's words.

Once this technology is realized, truly immortal beings will be born!

That's terrifying!

As the mechanical bee approached, the scorpion gently snapped its mandibles, spewing out coded flames that released the pre-stored 'disk virus,' which landed in the space in front of it.

The virus interacted with the virtual space, and what was originally a street was suddenly divided into ten.

This is based on the principle that "the virus itself occupies the disk's boot sector and moves the original boot sector to other sectors".

Thus, under the influence of the 'guide virus,' the massive swarm of mechanical bees split into ten, greatly relieving the pressure on everyone.

"Poison Sister, can you break through this virtual space?"

As the instigator, Gao not only failed to realize that he had messed things up, but even thought about continuing to curry favor with powerful figures.

The scorpion glared at the other party and said irritably:

"Is this useful? The other party has completely integrated with the brain-computer interface. I can break through one layer of virtual space, but the other party will create ten or a hundred layers."

"Moreover, this time, we were only stripped of our five senses, and all our senses are still mixed together. The next time we are attacked, our vision, hearing, smell, and taste will most likely be separated."

"Putting everything else aside, once vision is lost, death is truly not far off."

The senior engineer's eyes showed a look of sudden realization.

"No wonder the other party chose the direction of 'mechanical brain modification' for their brain-computer interface technology, because only a fully modified brain can be combined with 'consciousness package technology'."

At this moment, the four people were hiding in a stairwell, watching a swarm of mechanical bees whizz by, each with a different expression.

The enemy seemed to be gradually adjusting their course.

As the other party became more and more skilled, it seemed only a matter of time before they were discovered.

The four men had different expressions. Mr. Brainstem looked full of regret, thinking he shouldn't have come with this guy. Black Python was still dazed, but his expression was becoming increasingly uneasy. The 'Main Brain' showed no expression, but his thighs were trembling slightly. Finally, after a moment of deep thought, Poison Scorpion suddenly turned to look at Senior Engineer:

"I don't know what your plans are, but I'm sure you have your own plans. I'm going to send you back to reality."

The senior engineer looked surprised. "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

"You don't need to understand, just finish what you need to do and help us get away as soon as possible."

After a strong data fluctuation, the scorpion once again transformed into a hybrid of the old witch and the Black Mountain Demon. As a stinger dripping with code venom was pulled out, her expression showed a hint of pain, as if this time, she was not as relaxed as before.

The arm-thick poisonous stinger pierced the engineer's abdomen with lightning speed, and then a thick, scalding liquid began to spread throughout his body.

[Due to interference from an unknown viral cluster, your 'Reproductive System Modification Rate (Virtual)' has temporarily increased by 10%]

The reproductive modification rate has increased by 50%. This level of reproductive system has surpassed that of ordinary mammals and evolved into a stallion, with strength comparable to amphibians, such as frogs and toads, producing a large litter in one lifetime.

Meanwhile, strands of "silk" rapidly grew on the surface of the engineer's body. The codes on each strand of silk were extremely complex. These silks wrapped him layer by layer, and his body size shrank more and more.

"Back then, you spread the electronic impotence virus everywhere, killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. You actually modified so much reproductive code into this terrifying thing. Amazing, truly amazing!"

The senior engineer only had time to utter a single complaint before he was completely engulfed by the silkworm silk.

Scorpion reverted to her female programmer persona, panting heavily, as if she had expended a great deal of energy this time.

The black python stared dumbfounded at the tiny, spherical placenta, no bigger than the palm of its hand, and at the phantom image of a child no bigger than the palm of its hand on it. "Where is he?"

"I brought him back to life."

In the real-world Hive City, the mechanical mainframe lies amidst ruins.

The senior engineer's eyes suddenly darted around.

It was a state of confusion and bewilderment. There was a little bit of vision, but not much. There seemed to be a little bit of touch as well, but it was enveloped by something soft and fluffy, which felt a bit good. Unfortunately, the feeling of pleasure quickly disappeared, and he slipped out from a particularly comfortable place.

Then, the sense of touch grows rapidly, and you can feel softness and hardness, hot and cold, and speed.

And further still, sight, hearing, smell, and most importantly, basic logical thinking.

Generally speaking, a person goes through two stages of development: infancy and adolescence, each with a different focus.

Especially during puberty, the reproductive system matures further, bringing them one step closer to becoming humans unsuitable for children.

When the senior engineer woke up from reality, his first feeling was that he had grown up all over again.

I glanced at the system panel—

[Your Reproductive System Modification Rate (Biological) Permanently +1%]

[You have acquired the talent 'Data Development']

Data Development (Virtual Expertise) (Level 1, Grade I): In the virtual realm, your data input, copying, and iteration speed will always be significantly faster than others.

The senior engineer understood what was going on.

The other party "electronically castrated" all of his senses in the virtual space until he was completely impotent.

Then, by taking advantage of this state, reality is stimulated in the opposite direction, causing his physical body to redevelop in just a few seconds, from infancy to adolescence, and then to the complete restoration of his senses.

This operation directly bypasses the enterprise firewall's oversight at the data level, because it does not involve data transmission or data tampering.

This high-level operation is indeed worthy of being the signature skill of the world's 11th ranked super hacker; it's incredibly impressive.

However, the senior engineer rubbed his forehead with a wry smile.

"You've given me a bit of trouble, though not insignificant."
