The Black Card - Chapter 1405

[Chapter 1403 Immortality at the level of consciousness]

Shi Lei was quickly reviewing the ferryman’s memory about immortality and the “weapon” when he suddenly heard the ferryman’s voice again.

“Sometimes, I really admire you. No matter what situation you face, you can be so calm. Just like now, you know that I have a deadly weapon in my hand, but you actually dare to come alone. , I have to admire your courage. It seems that Mr. It’s hard not to want to take it as your own.”

Shi Lei raised his head and saw the ferryman. He was holding a transparent crystal box in his hand. There was also a round vessel in the box, but from Shi Lei’s perspective , but I can’t see what’s in that vessel.

However, Shi Lei was still in the state of seventh sense at this moment, and the ferryman’s current thinking was also closely connected with the thing in his hand.

Therefore, Shi Lei easily read his memory. Shi Lei knew that the crystal box in the ferryman’s hand contained a nutrient solution, and in the nutrient solution, something that the ferryman called an embryo was cultivated. .

That thing still needs about two hours to fully mature.

Following the name embryo, Shi Lei was connected to the ferryman’s memory, and he began to gradually understand what an embryo was.

Shi Lei said: “All I have are some external things. If I can, I would really like to give them all to you. Unfortunately, this is not allowed.”

The ferryman laughed and said: “Of course I know this is not allowed. , Mr. X will never allow another person besides you to have direct contact with him. The last spokesperson of Mr. Became his spokesperson. I originally wanted to kill you and replace you. But now, I no longer have to do that.”

Shi Lei had already understood the meaning of his seemingly inexplicable words through the ferryman’s memory. true meaning.

“It’s a pity that the embryo in your hand will take at least two hours to fully mature. If you use it now, you have no idea what will happen.”

The ferryman was shocked when he heard Shi Lei’s words. He had a look of surprise on his face. Looking at Shi Lei, his breathing became rapid.

“How do you know…?”

Immediately he suddenly realized and said, “Is it Mr. X?”

Shi Lei ignored him and was sorting out the information just obtained from his memory.

After experiencing several failures in previous experiments, both the ferryman and the doctor understood that there is an irreconcilable contradiction at this stage in wanting to directly replace the consciousness and memory of two different life forms. The new memory cannot adapt to the old one. The body, or the new body, cannot carry the old memories, and the connection between the brain and nerves will be greatly deviated.

So after thinking hard, the doctor came up with a new solution.

The new solution is embryos.

After cultivating the embryos, the doctor immediately conducted experiments.

He transfers a person’s memory and consciousness into a cultured mature embryo through some means, and then implants that embryo into another person’s body.

In this way, the memories and consciousness of these two people exist in the same body.

The memory stored in the embryo is slowly released after entering the new body.

That body will go through the stage of visual and auditory hallucinations and dreams all night long. The old memory does not even know what happened, but just sighs at the reality of the dream. It is just like everything he has ever experienced.

As the embryo continues to grow in the new body, it also continues to release the memory of another person. The original memory and consciousness of this body will become more and more fragile and blurred.

Eventually, it will be replaced by the consciousness and memory brought by the embryo, and the process of transformation from old consciousness to new consciousness will be completely completed.

As a result, his body is completely taken over by another person’s consciousness and memory.

Since this is a slow release process, there is sufficient handover time between the old consciousness and the new consciousness, which allows the new consciousness to adapt to the body and achieve perfect integration.

The experiment was successful. The ferryman and the doctor completely completed the transfer of consciousness between different bodies, thus achieving a person’s immortality from the perspective of consciousness and memory.

As long as its body ages to the point of death, its memory and consciousness can be transferred to the embryo, and then replaced by another body.

The old memories will get new bodies, thus completing the eternal life of consciousness.

However, the process of merging consciousness and body takes as long as half a year or even a year, which is intolerable to the ferryman.

So, the Doctor’s experiments continue.

Until, he invented a newer way.

It is still an embryo, but this embryo is not like before. It is like a palm-sized ginseng doll, and it needs to be surgically implanted into another person’s body.

The doctor turned the embryos into nanoscale embryos, which were not even visible to the naked eye. It was the crystal box in the ferryman’s hand. The petri dish inside contained nutrient solution and the newly developed nanoscale embryos.

This kind of embryo has a fatal weakness, that is, it takes longer to culture and matures later, and it cannot withstand violent vibrations, otherwise it will be easily destroyed.

This is why the ferryman cannot move these things away from this house. He must return here to retrieve the nanoscale embryos that are about to mature.

In this small petri dish, there are hundreds of millions of nanoscale embryos. As long as the ferryman transfers his consciousness and memory to the petri dish, those nanoscale embryos can use air and any other medium on their own. , enter the designated body.

The metal hat on the ferryman’s head is a tool used to transfer his consciousness and memory from his body to the petri dish in his hand.

…

Faced with the ferryman’s question, Shi Lei looked at him and said calmly: “You won’t succeed…”

He had completely understood the ferryman’s thoughts. Of course the ferryman wanted Shi Lei to die, but if he could use Shi Lei’s body was implanted with his own consciousness and memory. In his opinion, he could completely replace Shi Lei.

But Shi Lei knew that this was impossible.

The black card, Mr.

Even if the ferryman does it and his consciousness and memory occupy Shi Lei’s body, the black card will determine that Shi Lei is dead, and then it will choose the next black card holder.

And that person does have a one in seven billion chance of falling on the ferryman’s head, but the selection of the black card is actually completely random.

The most important thing is that Shi Lei is absolutely sure that the ferryman’s dream is impossible to realize.

Seeing the determination in Shi Lei’s eyes as he looked at him, the ferryman hurriedly took a few steps back and warned Shi Lei: “Mr. Shi, I know you are very strong, but if you attack me now, The explosives on me are not for bluffing. You will never be able to leave.”

Shi Lei slowly stood up and stared into the ferryman’s eyes. He said, “But if I don’t kill you, you will kill me.” Death. In front of me, there are only two choices: my death and our own death. Why should I keep you?”
