Chapter 331: Chapter 27: Going Viral (Part 3) Chapter 331: Chapter 27: Going Viral (Part 3) “No, no, no.”

Lin Xian waved his hand in denial:

“Don’t analyze humans with your way of thinking.

For us, the hardest thing is rote memorization.

If you ask us to think about something, create something, that’s not so difficult.”

“No, no, no.”

VV mimicked Lin Xian’s gesture with its mechanical pincers:

“The humans in Rhine Sky City can rarely find someone as stupid as you.

Your memory is really too bad.

Here, any three-year-old child could memorize 1000 lines of code overnight.”

“That’s because they’ve all been genetically modified!”

Lin Xian said with disdain:

“Those people on the streets, each and every one of them looks like a plaster statue, all the men and women have bodies like models, with smooth and fair skin, not a single flaw.

Isn’t it obvious that they’ve been tampered with genetically from birth?”

“I don’t believe that people can naturally all be so beautiful, especially in Sky City where the altitude is so high and the UV radiation is so strong.

Their skin should be worse, but instead, everyone is as fair as snow.

Without thinking, I bet they’ve already improved the genes at the fetal stage…

perhaps even at the stage of the fertilized egg?”

“You’re not wrong in saying that.”

The trash can robot VV nodded honestly:

“Indeed, although it may hurt your self-esteem to say so, your looks among the men in Rhine Sky City…

would only rank below average.”

“What’s there for me to feel sad about.”

Lin Xian laughed it off:

“In a city where everyone’s faces are tweaked and everyone looks like a sculpture, the fact that my looks can still rank as below average is something to be proud of.”

“So…

when you said that any random three-year-old here can memorize 1000 lines of code in one night, it’s because they have been genetically modified from the fetal stage, right?”

“As for the development of the brain, it doesn’t actually start from the fetal stage.”

VV explained:

“During the fetal stage, it’s more about the increase in the number of brain cells, rather than the golden period for stimulating activity and potential.

Now, in Rhine Sky City, the development of infant brains is stimulated after birth, with the Bai Lian Vaccine injected to activate the brain cells’ activity and potential.”

Bang!

Lin Xian suddenly woke up and slapped the table to stand up!

“Wait a minute!”

Lin Xian stood up from the desk with an epiphany:

“Are you saying!

In Sky City, there are injections for brain development, to stimulate potential, to enhance memory?”

“Yeah.”

The trash can robot VV nodded:

“But you’re too late.

This kind of medicine is only suitable for babies who are still in their brain development stage.

If it’s forcibly injected into an adult, a small dosage would be ineffective, and a large dosage, although it could stimulate potential and memory for a short time, would have severe side effects…

cerebral palsy, cerebral hemorrhage are just minor issues, there’s a 90% chance it would lead to brain death.”

“Hey there.” Lin Xian waved his hand nonchalantly, pacing excitedly on the spot:

“Such an important matter, why didn’t you tell me sooner!

You’re truly an artificial idiot!

If I hadn’t asked by chance today, would you have kept it from me for a lifetime?”

“I couldn’t say it!”

The trash can robot VV’s eyes flashed green:

“Because the ‘Three Laws of Robotics’ first law states, a robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

My core code makes me obliged to obey this law, so unless you ask, I can’t proactively tell you any suggestion that might harm your life.”

“Forget about all that.

Lin Xian made a grand gesture:

“Bring me that medicine!”

Cerebral palsy?

Cerebral hemorrhage?

Brain death?

The one dying would be the self that’s stuck in an endless loop 600 years later; what does it have to do with the self of 2023?

When I wake up, there will still be no issues!

Just like how the brain-numbing alcohol can’t be brought into the Dream World…

the side effects of drugs that damage the brain can’t be brought back to the real world.

Brain damage cannot be brought back, nor can cerebral palsy or cerebral hemorrhage!

But!

[Memories can be brought back!]

Just need to stimulate the brain with those explosive drugs, making the memory burst in a short time, engraving these complex codes within the memory to bring back…

What does it matter if one dies in this endlessly looping Dream World?

Soon, a flying ambulance descended from the sky, and a nurse robot, carrying a medical kit and a syringe, approached Lin Xian.

VV looked up at Lin Xian:

“How much dosage are you planning to inject?”

“Just a little less than the lethal dose, let’s try that first,” Lin Xian rolled up his sleeve, eager to begin.

“If injection is into the carotid artery, the effect will be much faster.”

“Then the carotid artery, hurry.”

The nurse robot prepared the injection solution, loaded it into the syringe, and pressed it against Lin Xian’s neck—

Hiss.

The liquid medicine was slowly injected.

Lin Xian immediately felt as if he had been punched in the back of the head!

Groggy and swollen.

He pulled up a chair, sat in front of the electronic blackboard, closed his eyes, and pressed his temples with his hands.

Throbbing pain…

But he felt his brain thinking becoming incredibly clear!

It was as if someone had poured a bucket of mint candies into his head, cool and refreshingly sweet!

After a bout of dizziness, Lin Xian felt more and more calm, more and more lucid, even to the point where he seemed to hear the trace of leaves falling when the breeze brushed through the air…

“Lin…

Lin Xian, your nosebleed!”@@novelbin@@

The trash can robot cried out in alarm.

Lin Xian could feel the warm droplets, tick-tock, tick-tock, falling on his pant leg.

He knew that it was definitely his nosebleed.

It was the pressure in the cranial cavity that had squeezed the blood out through his nostrils.

But it didn’t matter…

All discomforts gradually subsided!

Thoughts connected like lines, intricately intertwined, sparking like lightning, advancing in parallel, taking a breath…

as if pouring clear nectar!

Zoom!

Lin Xian suddenly opened his eyes!!

Memorized!

Memorized!

The hexadecimal characters on the electronic blackboard in front of him were unforgettable!

Deeply engraved in the memory!

“Turn the page…”

Lin Xian’s eyes, bloodshot, stared straight ahead, his lips smeared with blood, his voice calm and powerful:

“Next page!”
