A group of criminals who were about to face the death penalty were pulled to the Oak Ridge Laboratory overnight.

Jha and Donna worked with Oak Ridge researchers to build the device.

Everyone outside the room was surrounded by people, basically all researchers from Oak Ridge were here.

"Do you think there really is a soul?"

"Who knows? Merlin's thesis theory is very solid, and the relationship between soul, body and memory is well explained. But the authenticity is questionable."

"If there really is a soul, then the entire biology will be overturned, and many phenomena that were previously incomprehensible to humans will be supported by new theoretical systems."

"Even if this experiment can really observe the material that appears after human beings die, we can't be sure that this is the soul!"

"In addition, how do we capture souls?"

"The biggest flaw of his paper is that it cannot demonstrate how the observed matter can be the soul?"

In the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the room, the researchers were all chattering away. Zheng Li's paper published on Magi had been distributed for everyone to see.

When the FBI found that they could not block this domain name through any technical means, they let the captured astronomers sign a confidentiality agreement and then released them.

Since it cannot be kept secret, there is no need to keep Magi's paper completely secret. What they have to do now is to keep it partially secret. At least this matter cannot be known to the public and cause riots.

Amerikan has been severely affected by the epidemic, and they do not want the slightest riot in society.

After reading the paper, the researchers have been discussing it. Some believe it, while others express disbelief, thinking that the existence of the soul is a myth.

This is a theory concocted by a troublemaker who calls himself Merlin.

It's just that they couldn't explain how Merlin bypassed Amerikan's monitoring and launched the probe to Pluto.

"Everyone, please stay quiet, our experiment is about to begin." Jha shouted.

It gradually became quiet outside the room. In the room in front of the transparent floor-to-ceiling glass, the condemned prisoners had their heads covered and were waiting for death to come.

"It's an advantage for you." The anesthesiologist responsible for performing euthanasia thought to himself, because it is a relief for death row inmates to be able to euthanasia.

The anesthesiologist first injects anesthetic and then potassium chloride.

There is a period of time between the time the death row inmate is injected with potassium chloride and his death. The observation device is already turned on when the anesthetist injects the anesthetic.

Under the observation of combined wavelength lasers and ultra-short light pulses, researchers in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass clearly saw white mist-like souls detaching from the bodies of the executed prisoners and slowly floating in the air.

"OMG! Is this the soul?"

"I want to know if all people's souls are white? Or do different people's souls reflect different colors under the observation device?"

"Can we capture souls?"

"If the soul really exists, will the soul also age?"

"Are those people whose brains are dead but whose bodies are still alive have souls dead?"

"If we can preserve memories and souls in the future, how can we legally define a person's true death?" Many of the researchers present have law degrees in addition to their research fields.

"In a legal sense, the death of the soul or the death of the body should be considered death."

"How to capture the soul? In the future, if we can transfer the soul and memory, wouldn't it mean that a person can live forever?"

"Will the hibernation device have any side effects on the soul?"

"How do we prove this is the soul?"

The researchers here are all Ph.D.s at least, and after observing the separated souls, the flames of inspiration are burning in everyone's minds.

Jie Ha was also shocked. Although he did not believe in the existence of souls, he was shocked after observing it: "It's so beautiful!"

But he didn't hesitate long and said: "We need more experiments to determine the nature of the soul."

Raymond, who was standing next to him, nodded and said: "We need to use particle observers and neutrino observation detectors to observe which basic particles the soul experiment is composed of."

Jha: "I feel it must be a particle we have never discovered before. We need more experiments."

"Merlin proposed in his paper that some intelligent beings also have souls in their bodies."

"We need more experiments to conduct a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the soul."

The physicists here want to study the material composition of the soul, while the biologists are thinking about the relationship between the soul and the body, and how the soul is stored in the human body.

Why can't people observe the existence of soul when they are alive, but can observe it after death?

In fact, the mages have also developed a way to observe the soul while a person is alive, but Zheng Li did not write it in the paper because he did not want to be discovered that the body in Shicheng had no soul.

"The existence of the soul is a big deal, and we need an overall arrangement and plan."

"The most important thing is to find Merlin. Who is he and what is his purpose?" Tom, the head of Oak Ridge Laboratory, thought to himself.

Among the three articles published by Zheng Li, the last one about the trinity of body, soul and will cannot be falsified.

In the second article, it is relatively easy to prove the existence of the soul. Just conduct experiments according to the method of the article.

The first one is equally easy, but involves making the simplest magic brain, which takes time.

The difference between the simplest magic brain and the standard magic brain is probably equivalent to the difference between a steam teapot and a steam engine.

They also use the principle of steam to pry materials. The essence is the same but they play completely different roles at the application layer.

Zheng Li also stated in the paper that the use of this magic brain is limited to small mammals, such as mice. Use on humans will have unpredictable consequences.

This experiment is actually a verification experiment done by Zheng Li after the end of his first semester at Jiangcheng University.

Basic experiments in the mage's theoretical system.

For Blue Star's theoretical system, this is a completely unfamiliar field.

This experiment was not held at Oak Ridge, but at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

During this week, researchers from the five major alliance leaders of Blue Star completed experiments on the existence of souls, and all parties reached an agreement through remote meetings.

The existence of Merlin and the contents of the magi are to be kept secret from the public.

They were not sure whether Merlin was an alien or a Blue Star person, but everyone agreed that at least he had acquired extraterrestrial theoretical knowledge that was completely different from the Blue Star scientific system.

Various countries are monitoring Magi's movements in real time. According to the analysis of top cognitive behavioral experts in each country, Merlin will definitely make another move.
