1172 The imminent deadline

Back in the private house area, Lin Chi skipped the post-war settlement screen with a casual wave, opened the friend list, and began to contact the person who was most likely to know the information.

"I have a few questions." He sent a message.

Soon, Yinlongyu, who came from the legendary PVE organization "Fishing Guide Group", sent a response: "Please speak."

"Do you know what the 'Oasis Army' is?" Lin Chi got straight to the point.

"Well... is it an organization in the game? Players or NPCs?" Silver Dragon Fish immediately sent a question.

"NPC organization." Lin Chi replied.

"I haven't heard of it." Silver Dragon Fish's tone was very certain: "I have never been in contact with any organization called this name, and there is no sign of them appearing in the plot."

"Okay, please trouble you." Lin Chi said and ended the call.

Because he was not familiar with the other party, Lin Chi didn't know if Silver Dragon Fish was lying. But that guy shouldn't have any need to lie.

No matter what this "Oasis Army" was, Lin Chi felt a strong danger in Mr. Spencer. The organization might be a dangerous institution created by Massarah. If so, it should also be on the list of encirclements by the Creators.

Lin Chi was about to go offline, but he noticed an unread message left in the chat bar. The message came from the person he had contacted him not long ago:

"I'm ready."

Seeing the four simple and easy-to-understand words, Lin Chi raised his hand and opened the menu again, and simply got off the line and returned to the real world.

Opening the hatch of the game warehouse, the white "skin" and the face under the glass mask immediately appeared in front of Lin Chi. Frankenstein, who was using the body of the welcome robot, was standing next to the game warehouse, looking down at him from a high point.

"Is there anything wrong?" Lin Chi walked out of the game warehouse and moved his muscles: "I'm going to have a meal."

"The man went to the Blood Stained Bar." The speaker of the welcome robot made a cold voice: "He found me and wanted to contact you through me."

"Now you change your mind and plan to help me?" Lin Chi smiled.

"Not yet, I'm just here to pass the message." A white light flashed on Frankenstein's mask. I don't know what feelings he was going to express: "That's your own choice, and I have no right to interfere."

"Well, this is the human mindset." Lin Chi gave a thumbs up: "You learn very quickly."

"But I still want to say that you are on an extremely dangerous road." Frankenstein added: "Human technology has not yet reached that stage, and once something goes wrong, it will never be restored."

"That's why the 'pioneer' is needed." Lin Chi smiled.

When the brain imaging equipment was first put into civil use, he was also the first "pioneers" to join. Now, it's just another one, and it's no big deal.

In fact, the first thing to try is not yourself, but the coach who is in a desperate situation. Lin Chi knows that for the "boy" who has become experimental materials, even if there is only one percent hope of success, it is worth a try.

——Upload human consciousness into computers and become a real digital life. Even by 2035, this kind of thing will still exist only in science fiction novels and movies, and the corresponding devices in reality do not exist at all.

In the eyes of most people, the body is definitely an indispensable thing for the reason why humans become "humans". If there is really a heretical technology that can introduce consciousness into computers, it will definitely bring about serious ethical problems and may even cause the complete collapse of the world order.

However, with the advancement of technology, there will always be people on this path. For example... Dr. Kohler, who became a vegetable in the experiment.

Recalling the information he found, after eating soy sauce fried rice made by a housekeeping robot, Lin Chi returned to the game warehouse again and connected his consciousness to a large multiplayer community called "Domain".

Lin Chi, who used sunglasses and suits for men, came to District 13 with a familiarity and entered the illegal acceleration zone controlled by Frankenstein - the Bloody Bar.

In the encrypted room last time, Lin Chi met the man who was looking for him.

This time, the coach's appearance is a brain floating in the air, with several wires connected to it. This module is very consistent with his current situation.

Lin Chi just entered the room, and his brain had already made a rapid sound:

"Have you considered it? I can no longer drag it on."

"What's wrong?" Lin Chi stared at the weird module used by the coach.

“The laboratory is testing me more and more frequently, and I am almost—”

Halfway through his words, his brain floating in the air suddenly froze, as if it was stuck. It took five seconds to continue saying: "I can't support it anymore."

"The internet is not very good over you?" Lin Chi asked alertly.

"They may be listening, causing some lag, but it is safe in the encrypted area." The brain in the air shook: "But I suspect they may be parsing my memory. If the idea of ​​escape is discovered, it will be completely over."

"Memory experiment?" Lin Chi asked.

"Yes, they have installed a lot of electrodes on my head, twice as many as they usually use." The coach replied: "I think they should be monitoring my cerebral cortex if they parse out memories..."

"Is this unlikely? If human memories can be parsed out, this year's Nobel Prize will be completely unsuspecting." Lin Chi shook his head.

——Even the most advanced in-brain imaging devices now cannot fully read human memories, but instead creates the hallucination of "virtual reality" in consciousness through neural signaling.

In fact, reading memory is strictly prohibited in the field of intrabrain imaging. Even scientists are not afraid to joke about such things.

But... there seems to be nothing impossible for the scientific research institution where the coach is located.

——Performing such experiments with a living human brain is an illegal act that is explicitly prohibited. But that laboratory has tortured the coach as a test subject for more than ten years. Even if they slice the coach's head now, Lin Chi would not be surprised.

In a sense, this laboratory is very consistent with the common "evil mad scientist" temperament in the novel.

"Which scientific research institution are you here?" Lin Chi asked: "Is it the 'Lengshan' that often appears on TV?"

"Yes." The coach immediately replied: "Lengshan Laboratory, they were once pioneers of intrabrain imaging technology. And I... were the first person to use 'civil intrabrain imaging technology'."
