Chapter 737 The approaching answer 2
[Also, you said Magpie is a brain robot? 】
Chen Yan clearly remembered the messages he saw after getting Cyborg Quinn's cell phone - judging from the descriptions of the magpie in these messages, the magpie should be a serious and normal person.
[The concept of brain robots is very broad, and there is no doubt that Magpie must be one of them.]
Cyborg Quinn stops there.
Chen Yan didn't mind, he had more interesting things:
[And...pharmacy? Please tell me in detail, is this pharmacy the one I thought of...]
When Chen Yan was in prison, he came into contact with a prison doctor named Miao Ran. Miao Ran was controlled by a [hand] that did not belong to him. He obtained the body parts of prisoners in the prison through legal means allowed by prison rules and provided them for the pharmacy.
Provide these parts.
[The pharmacy...has existed for a long time, longer than most of the supernatural forces in Yharnam City have existed.]
Cyborg Quinn had to say something useful. He wanted something from Chen Yan, and judging from the situation just now, he had to - and could only do it with the help of "something" like Chen Yan.
achieve your own goals.
He considered it over and over again in his mind, carefully choosing the information he could reveal, and allowing the information to answer Chen Yan's questions in a concise enough manner.
[You know, among the oldest professions in the world, there are beings called 'witch doctors'. They have their own names in every era of history. But after Yanan City entered the industrial age, their...
…That set of ancient methods, which are both bloody and contrary to worldly morality, are no longer easy to use and cannot be used openly. They can only be used in secret.】
[The modern medicine that came from the imperial capital once almost defeated them. Some of them chose to integrate, so the large medical institutions in Yanan City were born, such as the public medical system, such as several listed companies, as long as they control
There are some so-called "exclusive secret recipes" and "folk remedies" families, most of which evolved from this kind of people.】
Chen Yan couldn't help but ask:
[There is a drugstore called ‘Green’ on the High Street.]
Cyborg Quinn has nothing to hide, and such risk-free bonus information can help him gain more trust from Chen Yan.
[According to the information we have access to, the Green family, the so-called witch hunters, separated from the witch doctors a long time ago, when the city of Yharnam was still full of black spruce and cypress.
It’s not a very profound reason, the main idea is different - some strong witch doctors believe that they can survive by hunting wild beasts or demihumans, and there is no need to do anything more bloody than hunting... You must have heard that
Yes, the sacrifices performed by witch doctors are a very cruel and disgusting thing in our opinion... So these witch doctors who no longer want to perform rituals gathered in groups and became hunters.]
Chen Yan thought that this process was probably accompanied by the development of civilization and the improvement of productivity, which led to the emergence of "morality". Some witch doctors had morals and learned "compassion", so they developed aversion to cruelty.
idea.
[But part of their heritage has been preserved - they still use "decoctions" prepared from the roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits of various small animals and plants to strengthen their own systems, and even plant body parts of extraordinary creatures to make themselves stronger.
mutate.
There are two essential differences between witch hunters and normal witch doctors.
First, in the process of subsequent evolution, the wizard hunters developed some very powerful formulas - they called that thing 'toffee'. The effect was amazing. It could effectively treat malaria and smallpox. It was simply a miracle medicine.
Second, due to chance, the wizard hunters participated in several major historical events. From these events, they learned to use different supernatural powers - they even invented such a thing as the "magic wand", which was a kind of weapon that could store
And collect the "catalyst" of extraordinary power, which is similar to the so-called "magic", but it is actually used to bluff people. It is actually a wireless baton.】
Chen Yan gained some wonderful knowledge.
And because Cyborg Quinn is very familiar with this part of the knowledge, he speaks very quickly, and the transmission of this part of the data only takes one millisecond.
[The inheritance of Magpie comes from those witch doctors who did not become witch hunters.]
Regarding this part of knowledge, Cyborg Quinn's thinking is obviously very smooth.
[In very ancient times, witch doctors were very respected because they had powerful healing and cursing powers.
These powers have become more and more unpopular with the increase of human beings and the migration of rich people in the south... As I said before, their rituals are too violent, and some of the seemingly scary processes are simply unnecessary.
... People's morality is constantly improving, and their level of civilization is getting stronger and stronger. When the local civilization of Yanan City develops to a certain level, the part of the witch doctors who have not adapted to the development of the times will be eliminated by the times.
However, due to the existence of the extraordinary society and the subsequent "No-War Pact", although the witch doctors were eliminated by the times, they did not disappear completely. Some of them even conformed to the trend of the new era and transformed into some shady people, but they were
There is an urgent need for some special groups of people.】
Cyborg Quinn pauses here.
[You know, human lifespan is limited. In this limited life, some people will get sick, and some of these people will suffer from organ failure and the like due to various reasons.
Under normal circumstances, a person with organ failure can continue to survive only by replacing the failing organs with normal organs.
In most cases, when an organ or part of a biological tissue is transplanted - after the patient undergoes an allogeneic tissue or organ transplant, the foreign tissue or organ transplant, as a "foreign component",
Recognized by the recipient's immune system, the latter initiates an attack, destruction, and elimination of the graft—an immunological reaction known as "transplant rejection."
For mortal society, organ transplantation is a big problem.
This is not the case for witch doctors. They have many means to suppress the "rejection reaction". Even if the organ recipient's psychological endurance is strong enough, they can make the foreign organ completely accepted by the organ recipient's body.
】
Chen Yan didn't know what it was and couldn't even imagine it.
[And this guy named Magpie is a leader in this way.
When I first met Magpie, I didn't know he was a witch doctor, because he had already joined the Mechanical Ascension Secret Order at that time, and in subsequent contacts, he came into contact with me as a peripheral member of the Mechanical Ascension Secret Order.
The Mechanical Ascension Secret Order is an organization with a very strict hierarchical system. What each level can and cannot do is completely stipulated, and it has a complete set of punishment mechanisms, which leads them to
Hierarchy is not overridden in most...almost all situations.
It was also this hierarchical system that led to Magpie’s cautious words and deeds—I didn’t know he was a witch doctor until I was lobotomized by him.]
There was a jump in thinking in Cyborg Quinn's narrative, and Chen Yan knew that he must be hiding something.
Now that he had successfully aroused enough curiosity in Chen Yan, Chen Yan decided that after returning to the real world this time, he must use his enhanced synaesthesia to see what was in Cyborg Quinn's mind.
[As for Byron Weiss... Byron Weiss collected information about these extraordinary creatures.
Whether it's a witch doctor or a witch hunter, whether it's a magpie or his "pharmacy".
The "brain robot" is a very complex thing. The Byron Weiss Group itself does not have the technology to complete the entire brain robot on its own. They have a large number of downstream manufacturers, and these downstream manufacturers provide them with everything they need.
From technology to parts.
What Magpie's Pharmacy can provide is the technology to make independent consciousness and independent body compatible.
This technology was born out of the "elimination of organ rejection" technology used in witch doctor rituals——
Let "a conscious body" be recognized by the artificial body and not be rejected——
It’s like adapting an “application software” to all the functions of “computer hardware”——
You know, this is a big project that may not be perfected in decades, and in the process, the application software will become larger and more bloated, and there will even be piles of code shit inside.
Mountain...this is inevitable.
The application software - even the operating system - consciousness - is complex.
For an artificial or modified consciousness, it is impossible to be exactly the same as normal consciousness. There will always be some flaws - consciousness is complex, and it is impossible for anyone to change consciousness and make it normal at the same time.
Human consciousness is just as normal.
The technology mastered by Magpie can do:
After burning the defective consciousness into the artificial body, this consciousness can fully control the body, and there will be no errors due to the software not adapting and optimizing the hardware, and it will not lead to a crash——
The technology mastered by Magpie is to skip the step of "targeted adaptation and optimization of software to hardware" and jump directly to controlling hardware through software to realize functions.
During this process, all bugs and program running errors will be ignored, these "irrelevant" things will be thrown aside, and only executable functions will be executed.]
Chen Yan was slightly surprised:
[You know a lot, it seems you haven’t fallen behind in the past three years.]
Cyborg Quinn's answer was simple and conservative:
[The Northern Bureau has much more information than you think. If you don’t consider too many influences from outside gods, at least the social development in the next twenty years... the Northern Bureau has a rough idea.]
Although Chen Yan knew that he would not answer the next question, he still couldn't help but ask:
【How is this done?】
Cyborg Quinn responded:
[You know that this is something that cannot be said. Mr. Chen, there are many things that cannot be said in this world. That is the bottom line of a profession and a person. Once it is known, you will lose your dignity as a human being.
qualifications……】
Chen Yan ignored his pretense and got back to the point:
[If Magpies do this, problems will definitely occur. If BUGs are not repaired and program running errors are not dealt with, these things will definitely affect the operation of the entire system after they accumulate to a certain extent.]
Cyborg Quinn's mood changed, because his speaking speed increased significantly:
[Yes, so although the brain robot is very powerful, it is inherently flawed. 】
When he said this, Chen Yan already understood what he meant:
[You want to find Magpie because even if you can get a brain-machine body, you still need Magpie to adapt the body. 】
To be continued...
