Chapter 9 Important Survival Wisdom

Regarding "why Yuki is so excited", Xiangshan certainly knows it well.

The child was so happy because Xiang Shan promised to teach him some skills.

Xiang Shan admitted that exposing his identity was somewhat risky. He even considered the worst case scenario - that is, the word "chivalry" has been completely distorted in this era, and chivalry has long lost its reputation. In this kind of situation

In some cases, he even needs to knock Yuki unconscious and then leave the town.

But he really lacks common sense about this weird era. He really needs someone from this era to help him. In addition, he cannot complete some modifications involving the brain by himself. If he wants to restore his martial arts, he needs someone

helper.

Yuki is the only person Xiangshan can trust at the moment. Xiangshan has been with him for several months, and he knows that this child is kind-hearted and smart. He is also curious enough and wants to understand the world.

From Xiangshan's point of view, this child has the value of being trained as an assistant or even an apprentice.

Regarding the matter of revealing his identity, Xiang Shan also went through certain considerations.

After weighing the risks and benefits, Xiang Shan finally chose to confess.

A few minutes ago, Xiangshan saw with his own eyes the expression on Yuki's face, from shock to fear to relief.

"I see Xiangshan that you are angry about the treatment of the workers." Yuki said: "I believe you are a good person and a good knight."

Later, Xiangshan asked Yuki where he could buy parts and borrow a set of special tools. Yuki took Xiangshan to Dr. Schultz.

"Well, most of the parts you need are very common. I have most of them here." Dr. Schultz glanced at the list listed by Xiang Shan and nodded: "However, some of them are quite expensive.

,In this case……"

"Don't worry, I have a way to pay for it." Xiang Shan took out a spine from the package he carried with him. This spine had a silvery-grey luster and was heavy, unlike the accumulation of calcium and protein. The density was close to that of metal.

.

This is the legacy of Will Grande Doug, a spine.

Humans will indeed grow such a spine. This is something Xiangshan just recalled. In the 21st century, humans have made great progress in molecular biology and genetic engineering. Humans can use genetic modification to allow their bodies to synthesize

Proteins containing metal elements.

If a person uses the modified virus to graft a new gene fragment into his body, and insists on taking anti-immune drugs for a period of time to suppress the rejection reaction between the original body and the new protein, then the protein composed of

The cells will gradually replace the original cells, eventually allowing people to evolve from "Homo sapiens" into a brand new creature.

And this new species of Homo transformed from Homo sapiens has a stronger adaptability to cybernetic prosthetics. The metal-based proteins in his body will form natural wires and resistors, "

The threshold for "brain-computer interface" has been infinitely lowered, while the ability of cells to resist mechanical damage has skyrocketed. Hardware implanted in the human body will no longer cause necrosis of surrounding cells.

——This may also be the reason why Xiangshan can wake up again after being in a coma for countless years.

Starting from a certain point in time, the process of human prosthetics began to run wild like a wild horse running wild.

Xiangshan no longer remembers the more detailed things. But he still remembers that in his era, the spine was still a critical thing. The metal-based spine is a natural data transmission line with a very large channel capacity and is closely related to nerve signals.

It fits naturally and does not require any further adjustments. Many cyber transformations will retain the brain, cerebellum, medulla oblongata and spine.

And now, Will Grand Dogg's warrior prosthetic body still uses this technology.

Xiangshan remembered that Yuki’s mother, Yulia, sold spines. This thing is still very valuable today.

Dr. Schultz was startled: "Are you going to sell this thing?" He looked at Xiangshan's stickman-like prosthetic body: "You don't plan to use it yourself?"

Xiang Shan pretended to be indifferent and said: "There is no medicine."

"medicine?"

"It's the kind... needed when replacing a spine... what is that?" Xiang Shan asked tentatively.

After receiving metal-based gene fragments, the cells' ability to resist apoptosis increases, and all the receptors on the original cell membrane surface are rewritten. Viruses native to the earth are almost unable to harm new humans. In addition, the increase in body temperature also makes human immunity

Most of the old germs, fungi, and parasites. But this does not mean that people will not have rejection reactions. If someone else’s spine is used, the body will still have rejection reactions.

——Of course, this is what Xiangshan remembers about that era.

Xiangshan didn't know how far Earth's technology had advanced after he fell into coma. Yuki didn't know much about this kind of professional issue, so he could only test Dr. Schultz.

Dr. Schultz nodded: "It's true... the reverse messenger soaking agent is really difficult to use."

He didn't doubt it too much. After all, ordinary people would never need to replace their spine in their lifetime.

"Yes, yes, reverse messenger soaking agent!" Xiang Shan nodded, pretending to be suddenly enlightened - fortunately, he is shameless now, and even the sound generator is a cheap thing that lacks emotion and does not require acting skills.

——Counter messenger soaking agent, a word I have never heard of at all... Messenger, is it related to messenger RNA?

Xiangshan himself is an engineer. But he vaguely remembered that he had a friend who was engaged in biology and talked to him about related topics.

——Central dogma, DNA enters genetic information into messenger RNA, and then messenger RNA is transcribed into long polypeptide chains. The polypeptide chains are folded by organelles and become proteins... Reverse transcriptase? No, it shouldn't be...

——Can this process be further reversed?

It seems that technology is still making progress. Xiangshan judged this. In his era, except for special cases such as prions, other life activities basically followed the "central dogma", the expression process of biological genetic information.

There is almost no way you can reverse this kind of life activity in the cells of an advanced organism.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But..." Dr. Schultz turned the list to the end and looked at it: "I really don't have these parts here... This kind of specifications should not be applicable.

On the prosthetic body, right? And the last piece of iron sheet, which is no more than one millimeter thick and less than three centimeters wide? If you want to find these things, it’s best to go to the scrap parts recycling bin at the east end of the town.”

Xiangshan explained: "This is used to make some... auxiliary tools."

"From this list, it seems that you have not received professional training, right?" Dr. Schultz shook his head: "Many of your specifications are not standard. I don't know what kind of prosthesis you plan to make, but,

A warrior's professional prosthetic body is, after all, a rare thing. I don't want you to waste hard-earned good parts. Well, do you want to go online and look at the design drawings?"

"Online?" Xiang Shan was startled. He remembered that things like the Internet once disappeared due to the war. He really didn't expect that this seemingly shabby world actually had such a thing as an Internet signal.

"Our town is relatively poor and there is no public network signal. However, I have set up a private one at home. If you sit in the middle of the living room, you should be able to receive it. I can give you a one-time access password..."

After saying this, he paused: "However, you'd better not download anything casually, and don't open the preview of holographic signals..."

Xiangshan is indeed somewhat moved.

But he finally shook his head: "No, doctor, thank you for your kindness. The Internet must be very expensive, and I can't take advantage of you in vain."

"That spine has already made me a lot of money." Dr. Schultz patted Xiang Shan on the shoulder: "Besides, you also saved my town. I really have to thank you."

"No, I'm not used to receiving favors from others for no reason. If I need it, I will borrow your net again." Xiangshan still rejected Dr. Schultz's kindness.

Dr. Schultz did not invite him again. He quickly found all the parts Xiangshan needed and lent him a set of professional biological tissue surgery tools.

After confirming that he was heading further towards the mountain, Schultz went upstairs.

The mayor is in a room upstairs.

"Uncle, he is not online." Schulz looked strange: "Why do you want me to remember to invite him to the Internet?"

Dr. Schultz really didn't understand his uncle's request. However, he still did it. His uncle was the most knowledgeable person in this town. When he was young, he had traveled extensively and knew some secrets.

"Dresden..." the mayor called Schulz's name: "Turn off the Internet first."

Schultz nodded and gave instructions directly through the brain-computer interface to disconnect the home network.

Anyway, this is how he usually saves network fees.

"You know? Dresden." The mayor seemed to be recalling the past: "When I was young, I offended an official and had to leave his hometown."

Schultz nodded: "Indeed, but you were lucky, the official died later..."

"He was assassinated by a knight." The mayor was silent for a moment and said, "I called that knight..."

"What?" Schultz screamed.

Colluding with the knights is a serious crime against Dyson's principles!

"I didn't collude with the knights. I just happened to meet a knight in the wilderness and asked for help." The mayor snorted: "Your grandfather, my father once told me that thugs like knights,

In fact, it is very easy to use. As long as you show humility to them, they will not make things difficult for you. On the contrary, they will assassinate those officials they think are guilty for some evil sense of honor - they are actually very easy to use this.

, is our very important survival wisdom.”

Schultz exclaimed: "You never told me..."

"That was before...the fewer people who knew this secret, the better." The mayor was silent for a moment: "But now, the situation is different. The tax collector only collected eighteen babies, which was lower than the standard ratio. He wanted

We don't know how to deal with us. We may have to rely on the power of the 'Xia Ke'."

Schultz understood immediately: "You mean... Shan is a knight?"

"I don't know what Mr. Shan was doing before he lost his memory, but I know that all knights have a habit. They will not connect to the Internet casually. I spent a few days with a knight briefly. Before they go online, they must

Make long preparations." The mayor whispered: "I don't know if Mr. Shan is a knight. However, he can indeed fight - especially after obtaining the warrior prosthetic body."
