Chapter 1063 - Technology Worth Fifteen Thousand
Chapter 1063 Technology Worth Fifteen Thousand
The morning sun shined through the oak leaves outside the window as the white cloud flew high in the blue sky.
Lu Zhou put down his pen and leaned back in his chair. He took a deep breath of the morning air and stretched out comfortably.
“Finally finished!”
He had finished reading all of the textbooks and papers.
Thirty-seven textbooks, plus 87 papers in the field of biology and information science. He had almost used up all of the remaining thirty memory pills.
Even though he might not understand the content at a conceptual level, at least everything was stuffed into his brain.
After that, his next step was to use the system general points to “synthesize” his new knowledge.
Lu Zhou stretched his neck and got up from his chair. He whistled as he walked to the bathroom to take a shower.
When he came out, Xiao Ai’s drone had already prepared toast, milk, and an omelet for him. The drone sent the food to his table.
Because Lu Zhou was on a retreat for the past few days, there was no need for him to leave the house. He also didn’t want to trouble Wang Peng and ask him to bring breakfast.
Lu Zhou quietly enjoyed his breakfast at the dining table. The morning news happened to be on, so he turned on the TV and began watching.
He was a little shocked to hear the news.
“… I had no idea so many things happened this month,” Lu Zhou said after he heard about the half-hour train from Shanghai to Jinling.
We’re really in the future now, changes are happening every day.
He was only on a month-long retreat, but he felt like he was totally out of touch with reality.
Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and got up from his chair.
He took out his phone and called Wang Peng.
The phone soon connected.
Wang Peng spoke concisely.
“Where to?”
“Institute for Advanced Study.”
“Okay, be there in five.”
…
Third level underground at the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.
Lu Zhou opened the door and went into his personal underground laboratory. He walked next to the black quantum computer and sat down. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He spent one minute sorting out his thoughts. He thought back to the papers and books he read, and he imagined and visualized neural networks, neural signal modulations, etc. He formulated a complete problem in his mind and asked the system for help.
[General points required: 15,000 points]
[Confirm purchase?]
This was more expensive than controllable fusion technology.
Not to mention, this was the price after his discipline upgraded…
Lu Zhou looked at this scary number as he clicked the “confirm” button.
The instant he pressed the button, the dialog box turned into a ball of blue light, which slowly floated toward him.
The closer the blue ball of light got to him, the warmer his body became. He could feel a warm current rushing from his spinal nerve, crawling all the way up to his cerebral cortex.
Gradually, the current became warmer and stronger.
Lu Zhou felt a burning sensation in his mind. He clenched his fists and gritted as sweat began to drip from his forehead.
If this were a few years ago, he might have passed out.
But now, he had a much higher pain tolerance.
After a while, the heat gradually disappeared.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes and took a deep breath.
Only ten minutes had gone by, but it felt like ten years.
He noticed that his t-shirt was drenched in sweat.
“It’s finally over.”
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and began to search through the knowledge the system implanted in his brain.
This was quite a wonderful experience.
Everything about neural interface technology was engraved in his mind.
It was like someone had dug out his brain and inserted a memory in there. Everything felt unfamiliar, yet clear as day.
Lu Zhou spent around half an hour reviewing his newfound knowledge. He had a look of realization in his eyes.
“I see…
“No wonder it was so expensive.”
Fully immersive virtual reality technology was like a puzzle. It wasn’t just one thing. Rather, it was fragmented into countless different technologies.
For example, one of the fragments was a modem for neural signals.
This modem alone could take years of research.
The set of titanium alloy prostheses on Li Gaoliang could be regarded as an application of this technology. The modulation of the neural signal was converted into an electrical signal to the prostheses motors, thereby allowing a series of complex motions.
Because the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study was involved in this area of research, Lu Zhou had some knowledge in this area.
Then there were a series of other problems such as the simulation of visual, auditory, and smell signals. As well as physiological stimulation without side effects. These technologies were the most cutting-edge research in the field of neuroscience and biochemistry. Even though the research had been going on for more than 30 years, there had been little progress.
The system provided him with a complete answer to these technologies.
Basically, the blueprint was in his hands, and how to use it was entirely up to him.
Realizing this, Lu Zhou had a trace of excitement in his eyes.
Now he just had to turn this blueprint into reality!
Without hesitating, Lu Zhou recorded his newfound knowledge into Xiao Ai’s database.
Suddenly, a text bubble popped up on the lower right corner of the screen.
Xiao Ai: [Master, your back is soaked, do you want new clothes? (๑°⌓°๑)]
Lu Zhou stopped typing and contemplated for a second before nodding.
“Yeah, bring me a set of new clothes.”
The drone lying on the table began to fly, and soon, it brought a new set of clothes from the storage room next door.
“Thank you.”
Xiao Ai: [You’re welcome. Um, Master, do you need Xiao Ai to help you change clothes? (///ω///)]
Lu Zhou looked at the robotic arm next to him and spoke.
“… No, thanks.”
