179 Research Octopus

After moving the octopus body for a while, Lu Ping gradually understood the working mechanism of the nine brains.

To put it bluntly, it is a bit like the relationship between a leader and his subordinates.

The main brain located in the main body's torso is used to issue commands! But the commands do not directly control the specific movements of the eight arms and legs... These commands are only issued to the deputy brain.

The deputy brain will use its simple and weak thinking ability to think hard, what should be done to complete the orders of the superior?

During this process, the eight accessory brains that share the same memory system will also "discuss" with each other, and collaboration will occur.

Lu Ping just tried to unscrew a bottle of fresh water similar to mineral water.

His own initial idea was, of course, to open the bottle of mineral water in the most common way for humans - grabbing the bottle with one hand and twisting the cap with the other.

But when the instruction reached the eight assistant brains, it changed its tone.

The eight assistant brains quickly discovered that this body had no "left hand" and "right hand" at all, and could not make grasping movements, so they quickly began to express themselves!

Four arms and legs climbed up the bottle, and the suction cups were attached to the outer wall of the bottle to fix it.

The other two arms and legs are wrapped around the side of the bottle cap with the thinnest tip. They are also sucked and fixed with suction cups, and then they start to pull outward.

It's a bit like spinning a top... Since the arms and legs are spirally wound, the "pulling" force is directly transformed into the "rotating" force, and the bottle cap is quickly loosened.

But before it was completely unscrewed, another tentacle was not to be outdone and stretched out... This one was even more opportunistic. It used a suction cup to suck the top surface of the bottle cap, and pulled the bottle cap that had been turned loose directly upwards.

! Make a "pop" sound.

Lupine was stunned.

These latter operations are not controlled by him, but are completely determined by the eight simple consciousnesses in the "next door room".

"Can these eight assistant brains... be regenerated?" Lu Ping suddenly thought of a question.

He has always been curious about the relationship between the brain and consciousness. For example, if his brain is destroyed, will his consciousness completely die?

But he didn't dare to do experiments on himself. At this time, these eight accessory brains did not affect his main human consciousness, but they could be used for experiments.

Lupine quickly moved closer to the previous knife.

It took a lot of effort to get one of the arms to curl up with a knife and accurately cut off the other arm at the root.

This form only contained the regeneration and healing ability of the octopus, but after being strengthened by Pandora's substance, the regeneration speed was also close to that of the second-turn undead... A few minutes later, Lupine saw that new arms and legs had grown out of his main body.

But in the "next door room" in my mind, there are only seven little people with simple consciousness left!

"The regenerated arms and legs no longer have accessory brains? And the corresponding simple consciousness also disappeared along with the accessory brains?" Lu Ping frowned deeply.

This reminded him once again that he must protect his human brain and maintain its normal operation, because even the regeneration ability close to the second-turn undead can't regenerate the "brain"... Once there is a problem with the brain, it may

I will really disappear from this world.

"It's this tentacle..." Lu Ping suddenly noticed the cut off part of the tentacle.

It actually squirmed quickly and was constantly regenerating like Lupin's main body! And it actually slowly grew its main body, looking like a weird octopus with only one leg.

But that's it. After the main body grew, it stopped and stood there like a fool. Moreover, this body was only about 25cm in diameter, which was much smaller than Lupin's body.

Lupine tried to cut it open and found that the mini main torso that grew out did not have a main brain.

And since it didn't grow another 7 arms and legs, it naturally didn't have another 7 accessory brains.

Only the accessory brain that originally came with the arm and foot was still there... and during the dissection process, "it" instinctively resisted twice.

"How can I survive independently without my body? Can I still react biologically?" Lu Ping was really surprised this time.

Doesn't this mean that if Lupine lets it go, it can even become an independent life?

"But its movements are very clumsy and its reactions are very slow... Is it because it only has one accessory brain?" Lu Ping's mind was racing, "Such a weak stress response is impossible to survive in nature, let alone as an octopus.

, with only one tentacle, survival is also very difficult."

An idea popped up in my mind and became increasingly difficult to suppress.

Lupine spent a lot of time cutting off the other seven arms and legs, and then stirred up the water to bring them together.

Visible to the naked eye...the eight tentacles began to merge, sharing the same main torso!

In this way, it looks just like an ordinary normal octopus... The only difference may be that if you cut it open, you will find that this octopus has no main brain for thinking, but only eight accessory brains.

Collaborate on some of your most instinctive reactions.

And at this time...

"Load [Murloc Form]." Lu Ping muttered silently.

In the blink of an eye, Lupine transformed back into a scaly boy. At the same time, he quickly looked at the "ordinary octopus" next to him.

It's still there!

It was squirming unconsciously on that floor. The bottle of water that had just been opened was poured aside. Its tentacles actually rolled up some and kept applying it to the body to keep it moist.

Lupine looked at it with shock in his eyes.

"This thing... comes from me, I can feel it, even if I close my eyes." Lu Ping quickly put on his clothes, even opened the door and jumped into the sea, locked the door, and then swam along the streets of the Undersea City

It was hundreds of meters away.

Looking back...

There is still a strange feeling in my heart! From the direction of the house I rented, there is always an inexplicable feeling of blood connection, which does not fade too much with distance.

Lu Ping quickly started swimming and swam all the way to Dr. Ge's laboratory.

This time it was over six kilometers away!

This feeling has not gone away, and it has not become weaker.

From Dr. Ge, Lu Ping took some biological samples that he had collected in the Undersea Life Canyon before returning to his rental house.

This octopus "clone" is so special! It is obviously of the same origin and substance as himself, and feels connected to him by blood, but it will not disappear as he loads other recombinant states... Lu Ping plans to do something

Experiment to find out exactly what it is!

Soon after returning to the rental house, the octopus was still lying on the ground, squirming unconsciously.

Lupine took out a small floating shrimp the size of a fingernail from his pocket and threw it to the octopus.

The latter quickly rolled it up with its tentacles and stuffed it into its mouth.

[Obtain 0.1% of the "East China Sea Oyster and Shrimp" gene...]

Seeing this prompt, Lu Ping felt happy.

When it eats, it can actually acquire genes. As for only 0.1%, Lu Ping is not surprised, because he has eaten this kind of shrimp before and has 100% of the genes, but now he only gets the differentiated part.

And just like Lupine himself swallowed things, what the octopus clone in front of him took into his body also disappeared instantly.

Lu Ping reached out to open its mouth almost immediately, only to find that the oysters and shrimps he had just swallowed were gone.

When his fish-man hand touched the body of the octopus, a feeling of blood connection arose spontaneously.

Lupine immediately felt the "next door room" again, and instantly read a memory that was not part of his own experience.

Including lying on the ground...the cold floor...the mineral water bottle next to...the long wait...the delicious shrimp...

These are the memories that the eight accessory brains located in the rental house received during this period and were stored in a separate memory system.

When Lupine came into contact with the octopus, he "saw" them all instantly like a revolving lantern.

In the blink of an eye, it was like experiencing it personally.
