Chapter 442 Who is the third?(1/2)
""Biological Neurology", "Does Mental Power Really Exist", "Telepathy", "The Potential of the Brain"...
Uh...Uncle, do these books have anything to do with your job?"
Xiaoyu pointed at the messy pile of books on the desk and said with a confused look.
Although it was not the first time she entered Meng Lang's study, it seemed to be neat and tidy before she came there, and all the books on the bookshelf looked as if they had not been touched.
Today, the study room is just like those science madmen in movies, full of a messy feeling called "seeking knowledge"...
"emm... Analyze the ultimate role of market psychology in the insurance sales process from the physical basis of the brain. You can understand it this way for the time being..."
Meng Lang put down the "Introduction to Neurons" in his hand with a look of helplessness.
Through an indirect "close encounter of the third kind", the true existence form of the Night Demons was finally exposed to him.
It is not some kind of "alien civilization race" that is proficient in biochemical technology and human body modification, as I had previously guessed.
But it turned out to be some kind of weird alien parasite!
Unknown remote control method...
The so-called spiritual synchrony...
The puppets have been bizarrely brain-dead again and again...
Everything seems to have a reasonable explanation, and it suddenly becomes clear!
By instigating a rebellion against "Chao Ge", a "ball traitor", I learned from the other party that the other party's existence form was a strange "neuron-like" creature.
They can invade the brain centers of almost all carbon-based organisms on earth, and through superficial or deep-level parasitic fusion, they can control the consciousness and actions of the "host" to a certain extent.
Chao Ge and Chao Shu are such "parasitic puppets".
They call it the "Volume Clan"!
The difference between the two is that Chaoge is a public figure, and every move he makes attracts attention from outside humans, so his manipulation is a kind of "shallow parasitism".
As a result, Chaoge retains most of human consciousness and mobility.
Chaoshu is different.
After all, they are creatures from two planets. Even though the "racial talent" of the Night Demons is "carbon-based biological parasitism", the survival and evolution environments are completely different, so they naturally have a "fit" for parasitism.
If the compatibility of the Night Demons with the indigenous creatures on their original planet is 100, then humans may only have 60.
In other words, human beings are a kind of life form that does not fully meet the conditions for parasitism of the Night Demons, but can be forcibly parasitized.
Forcibly entering "deep parasitism" requires a larger-scale transformation of the human brain nervous system. The final result is that the visual nerve center is completely destroyed.
This is also the reason why Chaoshu became blind.
This is consistent with Meng Lang's original guess, that is, the environment where the night demons live should be dark and lightless, similar to the underground world, so the "sonic skill tree" was developed through natural selection.
It can only be said that even with parasitic control, the Night Demons still retain the habit of controlling "hearing animals" rather than "visual animals" like humans in their original living environment.
Chaoshu's situation is a "deformed product" caused by the forced fusion of life forms from two planets.
No wonder when I once asked Chaoshu, "Is she an earthling or an alien?" Chaoge would have that strange reaction of wanting to argue but not knowing where to start.
Because Chaoshu is not a complete alien, but he is no longer a pure earthling...
However, despite losing his vision, Chaoshu gained certain abilities that were more in line with the Night Demon clan.
For example, abnormally developed hearing.
Another example is "spiritual same frequency"...
That is, the ability that the other party has shown to control Chaoge from a distance.
Speaking of this "spiritual synchronization", it is definitely a "black technology" that is beyond the current knowledge of people on earth.
In Chao Ge's words, it is not like the kind of brain waves that humans are familiar with, but a more mysterious method of "mental control" that can even exceed the speed of light!
Therefore, even though we are separated by the vast starry sky of the universe, when Chao Ge arrives at Mars, the tragic ending of "brain death" on the spot cannot be avoided.
Thinking of this, Meng Lang couldn't help but sigh.
"Brave heart" refers not only to the group of pig teammates, but also to Chaoge, a compatriot on earth who "died heroically"...
Human beings are indeed complex creatures, sometimes extremely cowardly, and a little fear of death can completely collapse them.
However, sometimes, the courage born of love is enough to resist all the fears in the world...
He also tried to remove the "night demon" from Chaoge's brain, but on a starship with extremely poor medical conditions and no relevant technology accumulation, there was no way to do it.
There is a kind of "Three Corpse Brain Pills" written by Jin Dada that makes people in the world frightened. The zombies enter the brain and there is almost no solution.
The parasitism of the Night Demons is even more unsolvable!
Trying to find that part of the "heterogeneous" among the hundreds of billions of neuronal cells is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
Chaoge's despair is not unreasonable. The human brain is so complex and fragile.
Let alone within one's lifetime, even if technology develops for another hundred years, it will be almost impossible to perform such a degree of nerve stripping surgery.
Not to mention Chaoshu, who has a deeper integration with the Night Demon Clan...
If that "nest" is an aircraft carrier, it is responsible for coordinating the overall situation, formulating strategies, distributing intelligence, and assigning tasks...
Then Chaoshu is an "early warning aircraft".
She is responsible for visiting the front line in person and commanding a "puppet machine" remotely. She can be regarded as a "regional person in charge" to a certain extent.
As a tool that can be abandoned at any time, Chaoge's information is very limited. He doesn't even know the specific function and arrival time of the "seed".
Relatively speaking, Chaoshu, as the "regional person in charge", must know much more than Chaoge.
It's a pity that inciting Chao Ge to rebel would cost him his life, and inciting Chao Shu to rebel... even Chao Ge had to save himself...
At least in Chaoge's view, this was a complete waste of effort, because Chaoshu's situation was completely different from his.
As an "early warning aircraft", there is almost 24-hour uninterrupted two-way communication with the "aircraft carrier".
Even the slightest abnormal situation will cause the "nest" to be alert.
The previous "capture operation" against Chaoshu ended in failure, as evidenced by the fact that all of Chaoshu's family were brain-dead except for one dog that disappeared mysteriously.
Chaoge's phrase "You can't catch 'it'"...is not nonsense.
At least Meng Lang couldn't come up with a feasible plan to capture a "neuron" after so many days of research...
However, it was not that he was completely without gains.
At least after some serious study, he suddenly made a very bold guess about the existence form and characteristics of the Night Demon Clan!
You must know that no matter whether they are humans or aliens, no matter how talented their race is, they must follow the most basic biology.
One very important point is...the number of neurons determines the complexity and sophistication of system thinking!
Wisdom must be based on matter. Meng Lang calls it the "Law of Conservation of Wisdom"!
In other words, how much "biological intelligence" can you express based on how many neurons you have.
No matter how insanely intelligent a "single-celled organism" like Paramecium is, it can't be smarter than a little beast.
This is an absolute advantage based on the "number of neurons"!
The same is true for life forms like "gods". No matter how complex the cell structure is, one, two, or even hundreds of neurons are unlikely to have the "autonomous consciousness" displayed by highly intelligent life forms.
This point can be seen from the fact that Chaoge was almost nakedly rebellious, and the "night demon" in his head did not kill him immediately.
Instead, he had to wait for orders from a higher-level "intelligent individual" before killing Chao Ge. This is proof!
This shows that the one in Chaoge’s head is not a “complete” Night Demon at all!
At least in terms of intelligence, it cannot be compared with the "intelligent night demons" like "The Nest" who are able to make normal logical judgments.
Then here comes the problem.
Is this so-called "god race" divided into different levels of intelligence? Those with poor intelligence are only qualified to be parasitic "tool men"?
Obviously unreasonable, then...will the other party be the same as human neuron cells...
Belong to some kind of "collective intelligence"?
What is human consciousness?
The basis of its existence is the brain, and furthermore, it is the complex electrochemical reactions evolved from hundreds of billions of neurons in the brain...
Then the other party's "social hierarchy" may not be the "level of intelligence", but the "number of neurons"?
Chaoge may only have a "pinch" in his mind, and Chaoshu may have a "bunch" in his mind, so that "nest"...maybe it's just a mass...
Those with a large number of neurons control those with a small number of neurons.
In this way, a "social hierarchy" unique to the "gods" is formed?
This guess is very bold, but if it is as he thought, then maybe... the Chao Ge brothers and sisters are not really "incurable"...
Because all life forms that exist in the form of "collective intelligence" will have a core of main consciousness...
The absolute core of the Night Demon Clan in the earth should undoubtedly be the so-called "nest".
So if he can take out that "nest"...
To be continued...
