"Then, let's get started, first try to see if you can become a so-called machine soul"

In previous experiments, Xie Ping discovered that no matter whether it is ordinary guns and ammunition, bolters, chainswords, or interstellar battleships, there is no so-called machine spirit under normal circumstances

Rather, it needs to be produced through various rituals of the Mechanicus, or it can be produced through simple rituals of Space Marines, or it can also be produced through the long-term belief of a large number of ordinary people.

Their strengths and weaknesses vary, and their IQs vary, but they are all basically capable of using so-called psychic powers. Once the so-called machine soul joy phenomenon occurs, these machine souls will use their psychic powers to do something that goes against common sense<

/p>

For example, if the magazine is completely empty, a few more bullets can be fired. For example, if the power system is completely damaged, it can still be supported for a while.

This is simply like the so-called belief in becoming a god. No matter how ordinary the component is, as long as it undergoes the rituals of the Mechanicum or the pious belief of a large number of ordinary people or a small number of space warriors, an ordinary object can give birth to a so-called machine soul.

, through these so-called machine souls, they can also be used as AI to a certain extent

As for Xie Ping himself, there is no so-called soul in this Warhammer world, and Xie Ping's body is entirely composed of intelligent atoms. Although it looks like carbon-based flesh and blood, it looks like consciousness running in the brain
p>

But Xie Ping can also convert his consciousness algorithm into an electronic intelligent program, and his body into a metal mechanical structure

Then, maybe you can use these methods to give yourself a so-called machine soul

As long as you have a soul, you can observe the interference subspace to a certain extent. As long as you can observe it, subsequent research will be much simpler

After all, the most troublesome thing so far is the intuitive observation of subspace

Even if Xie Ping invaded the psykers in the Space Marine battleships through brain signals, none of the so-called subspace appearances indirectly observed through them were the same

The subspace from the perspective of almost every psyker is quite different, as absurd as a dream, almost all with their own great subjective consciousness

Since it is unreliable to study through these psychics, then do it yourself, this is what Xie Ping thinks

Just do what he said, Xie Ping took out a body and used this body as raw material to build a mechanical sword that looked extremely powerful and handsome. The consciousness algorithm was also converted into AI data and ran on the built-in system of the mechanical sword.

on the computer

"I have now become the so-called Demonic Sword Spirit. Next, I will seduce the Astartes and ordinary people to believe in me, and then turn me into a holy sword with a sword spirit, hahaha"<

/p>

Xie Ping felt a sense of immediacy and couldn't help laughing.

Then, in order to increase the number of samples, Xie Ping continued to use his body as a material, and successively made a large number of various weapons, instruments, small spaceships, etc.

Through various inducements, many space warriors and humans are allowed to obtain these weapons, spaceships, etc., and then through environmental inducement, they are allowed to have faith in these things

One of the experimental locations, a super giant underground city

Lakatos, the unlucky champion of the Ultramarines Chapter who was selected by Xie Ping, woke up in a daze and found that all his equipment was in dilapidated condition and the surroundings were in ruins

"Am I not dead? Why am I still alive?"

Lakatos looked around and saw that there was a ceiling of unknown material about 5 kilometers high, and there were dense forests and hills everywhere on the ground blocking his view

After searching around, he found a hill dozens of meters high. Lakatos rushed up in a few steps, climbed up and looked around.

He found that the environment he was currently in was almost the same as the terrifying passage where a large number of powerful enemies appeared that he had inexplicably entered before. However, this place could see a turning point at the end of the line of sight, and it might have a larger area
p>

Moreover, while Lakatos climbed up and looked into the distance, he also discovered that this area was also full of dangers

Just within sight, I discovered a huge beast with blood on its head and a big sword stuck in it. Moreover, this huge beast also found Lakatos, and was destroying the dense forest with its collision, heading towards

Coming from the direction of Lakatos

All the equipment on Lakatos was destroyed in the previous battle, and there was no hiding place within sight.

Moreover, he has not been able to eat for a long time. Due to the injuries sustained in previous fierce battles, his body functions have seriously declined, and his body's energy reserve has been almost completely depleted. He must supplement his food.

Without any hesitation, Lakatos waited for the giant beast to rush towards him. After avoiding the collision, he immediately seized the opportunity to attack

However, Lakatos discovered that the body of this giant beast was incredibly hard. Even if he was an Astartes and a fighting champion, it would be difficult for him to cause fatal damage to it without equipment

"This thing is really thick-skinned, and it's really hard to handle without equipment. However, there happens to be equipment that can be used. Could it be that there were other people here before?"

Lakatos noticed the giant sword stuck on the giant beast's head early in the morning. After testing that he could not cause much damage to it with his physical body, he immediately looked for an opportunity without hesitation, jumped on the giant beast's head and pulled out the giant sword.

Come down

With weapons in hand, Lakatos, the battle champion of the Ultramarines Chapter, was able to bleed out the giant beast to death with one sword without any damage, even though his physical functions were severely reduced.

Facing the corpse of the giant beast, Lakatos tried it, it was non-toxic

So after a few hours, Lakatos, who had eaten and drank enough, finally had time to observe the sword in his hand

"The power of this sword is too strong. I don't know how many times more powerful than the chain sword I had before. And with this appearance and style, could it be a relic of the Golden Age? Where is this place? Is it a relic of mankind in the Golden Age?

, I’m obviously still in the middle of a battle with the orc warlord, why on earth did I suddenly arrive here?”

Lakatos finally had a moment to think, feeling that there were questions everywhere

"Alas, the power armor and chain sword that have been with me for so long have been destroyed, but it is not without gain. With the power of this sword, maybe it can still be used as a sacred object of the Chapter in the future."

After obtaining the great sword, although he did not feel any trace of the organic soul on it, Lakatos still performed the ritual of awakening the organic soul and appeasing the great sword according to his habit every day. In the following months, he continued to

Continuously explore this huge maze, and rely on this giant sword to defeat powerful enemies that appear out of nowhere one after another

Finally, one day, when Lakatos was fighting a powerful alien enemy who appeared out of nowhere and possessed extremely terrifying martial arts, the machine soul phenomenon finally sprouted from the great sword!

Xie Ping's consciousness, which was constantly observing the outside world, was running in the built-in computer of the great sword. He finally observed that an inexplicable signal from an unknown source crossed his control and directly controlled the operation of the great sword. There was also an unknown source of power that enhanced the power of the great sword.

With the help of the great sword of the awakened machine soul, Lakatos finally defeated the powerful enemy

After that, most of the test subjects gradually awakened their machine souls with the help of the fanatical beliefs of humans or Astartes and the daily appeasement ritual of the machine soul awakening ceremony

But through experimental observations, Xie Ping was quite disappointed

These various weapons that have awakened machine souls and are loaded with Xie Ping's consciousness data, the machine souls on them have the same low IQs, each one is basically similar to a small animal, and most of them are worse than small animals

The most annoying thing is that some of these machine spirits with small animal IQs are even smarter and even rely on reading the data recorded in the weapons to think that they are Xie Ping

It's just that these machine souls who think they are Xie Ping have been tested by Xie Ping, but they still haven't inherited any of Xie Ping's consciousness algorithms

It will only send out vague and messy signals for the emperor and humanity through the data transmission function of the weapon

So, the experiment of making a machine soul version of Xie Ping failed, the next step is to make Xie Ping with a soul

"So, if you want to have a soul that I can control, do you have to gestate it from an embryonic state? It's really troublesome."

Trouble is trouble, but in order to have a soul that he can control by himself, Xie Ping also began the process of experimentally cloning 1 million Xie Ping bodies with souls

First of all, Xie Ping casually analyzed all the gene expressions when he was a human on earth, and re-edited the genome of the brain with reference to the special structure of the brain of Warhammer intelligent creatures

After the re-edited embryonic cells grow naturally, they will no longer be able to grow a complete brain with complete consciousness, but will grow a very redundant incomplete brain with a soul signal interface reserved for humans in Warhammer
p>

At the same time, while still in the embryonic stage, Xie Ping's complete consciousness algorithm data was continuously input into the immature brains that have not yet fully developed through memory editing.

In this way, by inputting data into the physical brain in advance, the soul and the body are connected during the soul gestation process

Through this special connection, try to synchronize even part of Xie Ping's consciousness to the soul body in the subspace

As long as the soul in the subspace possesses a part of Xie Ping's consciousness, and then relies on the soul in the subspace to operate, it will be much easier to formally transform the soul

Soon, these 1 million copies of Xie Ping's embryos grew slowly, and already had Xie Ping's consciousness data in their brains before they were officially born

Moreover, relying on the connection between the soul and the body in the Warhammer Universe, Xie Ping's consciousness information was successfully synchronized to the newborn soul in the subspace

The newly born Xie Pings feel the existence of the so-called soul, which has a wonderful connection with the body. They feel that consciousness is not only run by the brain, but runs in the brain and soul together, and feel the weak subspace information felt through the so-called soul.

"Our souls are still too fragile, not even as good as the ordinary people we saved. It should be because the growth time is too short, and the subspace information felt through the soul is too vague and weak."

Xie Ping felt very dissatisfied

Moreover, he also discovered that these 1 million copies of his new souls were no different from ordinary souls.

Although they have Xie Ping's self-awareness, their calculation ability, thinking ability, etc. are completely at the level of ordinary people in Warhammer, and most of them are even worse than ordinary people

Compared with Xie Ping's seemingly ordinary flesh and blood body that can be transformed at will and made up of clusters of intelligent atoms, the performance of these new souls is really too low

Moreover, the strength of these souls themselves is too low, and the controllability of the souls itself is also very weak

Through the soul perception attached to these newborn souls, Xie Ping can feel that the souls he created are stronger than those of newborns, and are not even as good as those of teenagers.

The power of the soul itself and the controllability of psychic energy are also extremely poor. It should be said that it is even impossible to use psychic energy at all, which is completely incomparable with those psykers among the Space Marines

How do you compare these souls with Xie Ping's consciousness with Xie Ping's body?

These new souls with a certain Xie Ping consciousness are like a paralyzed human consciousness connected to a supercomputer

Although this human being is connected to the computer consciousness, he cannot edit his own program at will like a computer, let alone do any detailed operations, and he cannot even move his body freely. In comparison, these souls are like slime slugs.

The flexibility is almost the same

The data of the body and the soul are still incompatible to a large extent, just like the contents of the same book are recorded in the human brain and the electronic computer respectively. The data in the human brain are blurred and can be forgotten at any time.

The data in the computer is extremely clear and can be changed at will

"Well, it's really troublesome. The naturally bred soul can't run my consciousness normally at all. It seems that it needs some modification of the soul."

Xie Ping was a little disappointed. If he had to rely on these newly conceived natural souls to transform his soul, it would probably be as troublesome as using a bunch of slugs to move around a little bit to build a supercomputer.

Although it is not impossible, this requires a very complicated process, and requires a large number of Xie Ping souls to slowly cooperate with their pathetic psychic controllability to transform certain souls bit by bit

Use this to create a more controllable Xie Ping soul, and then rely on this more controllable soul to continue to transform little by little into a more controllable soul

This is like a group of slimes without limbs, moving little by little with photolithography. They have to push the stone little by little to smash out a bunch of primitive tools, and then rely on the stability and control accuracy improved by these crude tools, and then little by little

Create a primitive machine tool with a slightly higher precision

If you keep repeating this, I don't know how many times you have to fail before you can make a soul that is controllable enough to formally complete self-transformation

Although this is just a trouble for Xie Ping, it is not impossible, but Xie Ping still plans to find some shortcuts

"If you are a psyker, your soul is much more controllable. However, it is currently quite troublesome for me to develop the talent of a naturally conceived psyker."

"Let's engage in demon summoning, summon some demonic inanimate beings to cheat, and gain some magical knowledge, or turn Xie Ping's souls into demonic inanimate beings. As long as the souls are more controllable,

If you can complete the initial formal transformation of the soul in subspace, everything will be easy to do next."
