Chapter 208 I Can't Treat This Patient
Starnet is the highest crystallization of human wisdom in the interstellar era, and its performance is naturally not comparable to ordinary computers.
Today, the Star Network has become a behemoth covering all aspects of human life. Every aspect of human life is inextricably linked to the Star Network.
It can be said that if one day there is a major failure or even disappears in the star network, the existing life of human beings will undoubtedly be paralyzed.
Of course, human beings are not completely unprepared for such a situation of excessive dependence on the star network.
First of all, the core of the star network contains many kinds of stable systems that restrain each other, which are used to prevent riots due to excessive autonomy of artificial intelligence, and the star network technology department has preset more than a thousand kinds of star network accident response plans to ensure In any case, the situation can be controlled in time.
Just in the star network main base located in the capital star, there are thousands of programmers diligently maintaining the core every day. If the staff of various city branches are counted, it becomes an inestimable huge number.
——In this era, work related to Xingwang seems to support a large number of people who work on it.
Thanks to such a complete protection system and the superior performance of the star network itself, in the thousand years since the creation of the star network, there has only been one performance failure with a huge impact, even if the failure was quickly repaired within 3 minutes After the maintenance is completed, the losses caused are immeasurable.
Most of the time, the star network, which is known for its strictness, is running meticulously. Under such a sophisticated design, even a 0.01-second lag and deviation can be regarded as "abnormal".
According to the normal fault tolerance rate and carrying capacity of the star network, the researchers calculated that in theory, the star network would only have a slight "abnormality" every three months on average.
But today, within less than an hour, this "abnormality" has occurred twice in a row.
The first time a virus of unknown origin broke through layers of foreign exchange protection and invaded the core of the Star Network, causing the Star Network to be down for more than a full second before killing the virus. The other time was just now, and this time it was even more bizarre. For any reason, it freezes for 0.3 seconds.
Although the freeze occurred only in part of the network in the capital and did not affect the rest of the area, but since this is the core area of the star network, the problem should not be underestimated.
"Could it be that the garbage load is too heavy? Check to see if the data garbage from the previous period has been cleaned up!"
"......everything is normal!"
In the general base, the chief designer of Xingwang, who had already been sparsely distributed at a young age, stared solemnly at the report on the panel and did calculations several times, but failed to find out which link had gone wrong.
Until the end, the researchers were unable to find out the reason for the 0.3-second freeze of Starnet. They could only attribute it to an extremely rare unknown bug, and out of caution, the annual Starnet physical examination was advanced It took two months, that is, half a month later.
Of course, all this information was blocked by the Star Network base, and no trace was leaked to the outside world. Su Duan, who was still busy cooperating with various inspections in the research institute and under the curious onlookers of countless researchers, was completely unaware of it.
The life in the research institute is very comfortable. The rooms and configurations are arranged according to Su Duan's physical characteristics and preferences. At the same time, his needs for integrating into society in the future are also considered. Every corner and corner can reflect the carefulness of the designer.
Although it is a research institute specially used for experiments, in fact, there are also places for the staff to use for leisure and entertainment. Before Su Duan's brain was approved, the researchers took turns to use their own brains Lend it to him, so that he can get in touch with the information of the outside world through the star network at any time. In all fairness, life here cannot be called boring.
But even so, Su Duan's spirit was visibly weakened day by day.
The researchers were puzzled and asked him many times if he felt uncomfortable, but every time Su Juan just shook his head obediently.
Only he himself knows that he is so anxious not because his life is not going his way, but because he can't wait for someone.
And the existence of that person, of course, cannot be easily said.
——It seems that the research institute doesn't know the details of the mission world now, nor is it aware that there is a huge bug in it. In this case, of course, he can't take the initiative to expose these.
Even if the people in the research institute are not malicious towards him, no one can guarantee that they will be equally friendly towards the existence of that "bug"...
It is impossible for Su Duan to take this risk.
He originally thought that since that person could have such a big impact on the system, it can almost be said that he fiddled with the system casually, and there must be a way in reality.
But the status quo is that after the mission is over, that person has disappeared without a trace, as if he has never appeared in his life before, and there is no trace of him.
The man finally told him to wait obediently, but how long would he have to wait...
It's not that he doesn't trust the person who has accompanied him for several lifetimes, but Su Duan couldn't help but fell into worry because of the most important existence.
Not to mention that there are more miscellaneous problems, such as the real identity of the other party, and the memory that he couldn't recover after the mission...
These questions are like layers of vines, entangled in Su Duan's heart, no matter how hard he strokes, he can't find the root that represents the truth.
In this way, Xiao Fuling, who was full of worries, stayed in the research institute day by day. Even though nothing can be seen on the surface, the detailed physical report every day still honestly shows that the master's mood is getting worse day by day. .
——If he imitated the two small leaves on his head, he might be able to more intuitively see that the two tender leaves are drooping more and more day by day.
The anxious researchers tried various methods, but none of them had any significant effect.
In order to restore this precious ancient earth original organism to its original state, the identity certificate and intellectual brain belonging to Su Duan were immediately sent to him as soon as they were approved.
It was the gentle and gentle lady researcher of the plant department who guided Su Duan to use the brain. She patiently helped Su Duan bind this brand-new brain that belonged to him with irises and gene fragments.
After binding the smart brain, the researcher lady suddenly gave Su Duan a surprise: "We have deleted some data from the system backup that assists you in performing tasks and entered it into the smart brain, making it your personal smart brain AI."
"Don't worry about deleting data. This is just a special treatment to prevent the leakage of confidential research data. The basic character of the 1.0 system is still preserved, and 'it' has not changed."
"...The information shows that you have a good relationship during the mission. I hope seeing old friends can make you feel better." Miss Researcher blinked softly.
Su Duan listened to her in a daze, and finally responded after a while. With a warm heart, he sincerely thanked Miss Researcher: "Thank you, I have really troubled you..."
The researcher gave him some main precautions for logging into the star network, and then left Su Duan's room, leaving him alone.
Su Duan turned on the smart brain, and heard the familiar electronic voice: "Dear, dear master, welcome to use the smart brain 1, 18934677MGSV number smart brain, you can already start the initialization and setup!"
Su Duan: "..."
He was a little unaccustomed to hearing the system call him by another name suddenly.
"How are you recently?" Su Duan couldn't help but greet the system without rushing to set it up.
I don't know why the system freezes as soon as it is turned on: "Very, very good..."
Thinking of what Miss Researcher said before, Su Duan's heart moved, and he asked it tentatively: "Do you still remember what happened in the mission?"
The system stuttered and replied: "Holding, sorry, the authority is blocked, and the system can no longer read and read the specific information of the task."
Su Duan was a little strange, and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you? Is there a bug?"
He remembered that the system used to have bugs all the time, although those bugs were most likely caused by someone behind the scenes... I don't know if there were hidden dangers left at that time.
"The system is not, not a special, specialized intelligence brain AI. After matching, there may be, there will be a period of, a period of time, an adaptation period, which is, is a normal phenomenon—"
The more the system talked, the more it jammed. In the end, the sound was almost a little sharp and distorted, and the ending sound was drawn into a heavy line, as if it was about to break down.
Su Duan couldn't let go of his heart at all, he couldn't help but put his hand on the convenient button on his wrist to call for help, ready to call someone at any time: "Otherwise, I'll call someone to come and see..."
A sudden call stopped him in time.
"—Break off."
Although the timbre is still the programmed electronic sound, the intonation of these two words contains emotions that the program cannot have.
Although the system can be regarded as a close friend with him, it is absolutely impossible to call him so intimately.
What's more, he had only heard this kind of tone from one person——
When the familiar name spread from the bottom of his heart to his throat, and rolled all the way to the tip of his tongue, Su Duan suddenly stopped, the soft tip of his tongue resting on the roof of his mouth, his whole body froze completely, and he dared not take another step action.
It’s probably a kind of timid mentality of being close to home. He obviously waited for so long and suffered so much, but he didn’t dare to make any movements that might disturb him, for fear that the existence that made him wait for so long would be like a dream. Like the bubbles in it, it was easily broken up.
"Duan Duan," the voice called out again softer and softer, and Su Duan seemed to have suddenly broken the sealed spell, and cautiously replied, "Yes, I am here."
The voice seemed to be able to sense the uneasiness in his heart, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Although it's a little troublesome, it's not a big problem. Give me some more time, and we'll meet soon."
Su Duan looked at the small brain like a black button lying in his palm, and listened to the sound coming from it, his thin five fingers silently clenched it tightly, as if grasping a precious thing. treasures.
He originally had a stomach full of questions, such as who the other party was, what his real name was, and...whether they had any special relationship before.
He has been worried about these questions for the past few days, and the whole grass has lost several pounds, but at this moment, he doesn't want to ask a single question. He just wants to make this moment with this person longer, longer.
"Then come quickly." His voice was very soft, with a soft ending, probably softer than the tender leaves on the top of his head, and what he said seemed to be complaining and coquettish, "I've been waiting for you for a long time.
After a pause, I remembered something, and changed my words contradictoryly: "...It doesn't matter if you slow down, just pay attention to safety, I will always wait for you."
Although what the other party said was very easy, Su Duan didn't want the other party to take even the slightest risk.
I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry - Su Duan is still very proficient in this proverb that was widely circulated in the ancient earth period.
"Don't worry about Duanduan, I'll take care of it." The voice suddenly changed the subject, and began to criticize Duanduan's "mistakes": "But Duanduan himself, I didn't eat well, I didn't sleep well, and I didn't exercise enough... so Go on, when I come to pick you up, I'm afraid I can only get a sick Duan Duan."
"It's not that exaggerated..." Su Duan was thin-skinned, even though he knew that the other party's "screaming" was a lot of exaggeration, his cheeks flushed with guilt, and it took him a while to react blankly: "... ...No, how do you know?"
He has been staying in the research institute these days and has never gone out, and these things are relatively private life details, how does this person know so clearly?
Difficult, could it be—
"Because I've been watching you." The voice said slowly, "I've been by your side."
Being able to see him all the time, Su Duan thought for a long time, but he could only think of the ubiquitous existence of Xingwang——
Su Duan still wanted to ask in more detail, but after saying this, the brain in his hand flashed a red light, and when the electronic voice sounded again, the tone that Su Duan could hear was gone, replaced by It was the system's stupid question: "Master, master? Did the system crash just now?!"
After realizing that the person had left, Su Duan was still pondering whether the target was the legendary interstellar hacker who was so powerful that he could even hack the Star Network. "A cry.
system:"......."
The system couldn't help but fall into a deep silence.
Although the data is incomplete, the system still clearly remembers that when it was a cutting-edge system used for tasks, some strange bugs often appeared, but at that time it could barely be explained by the special nature of its work, Now it has been transformed into an intelligent brain system that has been lowered by many levels, but the bug seems to be more serious?There are even crashes that are said to only occur in systems that are seriously scrapped.
Isn't it really a problem with the initial program?
The system couldn't help but doubt itself.
At this point, the unlucky system didn't know that someone was responsible for all of this, and was so depressed that it was on the verge of being autistic, and even wanted to book a medical examination package for itself.
It's just—just in case something goes wrong, won't it... be abandoned by the owner?
One master and one master each had their own concerns, and the room fell into a strange silence for a while.
......
The staff in charge of the Black Potato project of the Ability Research Institute were worried for several days because of the poor results of the project. From one day onwards, Su Duan was surprised to find that for some reason, Su Duan suddenly became emotional again, and even returned to his normal state. It's even better than when I just woke up.
"It may be intermittent lack of energy, although this phenomenon is rare in modern society, but through the study of the few remaining documents related to the ancient earth, it is found that humans in the ancient earth period, especially females, would lose weight every once in a while. Due to unknown reasons, he fell into a period of depression, and most experts speculated that this may be a genetic defect that was common in humans in ancient times."
The research institute opened a special small project because of this small twists and turns, and finally came to such a conclusion after analysis.
——It is worth mentioning that because human beings were exposed to cosmic rays for a long time during their migration from the earth, the women of the next generation have already lost their menstrual periods, and because of the poor conditions at that time, the disaster on the earth will again Everything was destroyed too thoroughly, and the data about the menstrual period of human females failed to be handed down in the end.
That's why the research institute came to such a misunderstanding conclusion.
............
On the seventh day after waking up, Su Duan finally got the result of his ability test.
Because of the intermarriage with various cosmic races and the absorption of various foreign gene fragments, human beings have also undergone considerable evolution in the long history. Today's human beings, more or less, have some supernatural powers.
As for the strength and type of specific abilities, it is mostly related to the blood of other races flowing in its body.
Although Su Duan is not an evolved human being, the ability check is one of the current basic check items, and there is still a process to go through anyway.
Probably because of the side effects of artificial seedling growth, although Su Duan successfully possessed a human body with the help of the system, he did not have the powerful spells that a monster should have. It is no different from ordinary humans before evolution. The era of supernatural powers can be called very delicate.
But even so, Su Duan was already very satisfied.
If it weren't for the research institute's "pickling seedlings to encourage growth", he might have slept forever in the state of a plant on the abandoned ancient earth. Now he can become a human for nothing, so what is there to be dissatisfied with?
Because there are many inspection items in the front, the ability detection, which is relatively less important, is put at the end. The test done yesterday morning, the result came out at noon today.
However, this result exceeded everyone's expectations.
Su Duan actually has supernatural powers!
Although the form of this ability is somewhat special——
"...Blood contains a special component that cannot be resolved or separated. After rapid testing, this special substance can have a healing effect on most of the currently known diseases at the genetic level. If you want to get For more accurate results, it is recommended to expand the test sample pool."
Seeing this line of words on the test result, Su Duan was stunned.
Isn't this the effect of the item called [I am a medicine] in the mission world?
No matter how realistic the mission world is, it is composed of virtual data after all. How can the effects of props be materialized?
Su Duan stared blankly at the test results for a long time before he calmed down and began to think about other possibilities.
In fact, it is not impossible to think about it. His original form is originally a medicinal material, but the medicinal effect is not heavy. After transforming into a human form, it is advanced, and the body parts have the ability to cure all diseases, which is also very common logically.
At least in the past, many of his species belonged to the same kind of medicinal materials, and they followed this route...
Thinking of this, Su Duan became much calmer.
The researchers were also a little surprised. Although there are many types of abilities now, and all kinds of unimaginable magical abilities may exist, most of the types of abilities like Su Duan that not only have no attack power but also cause coveting are eliminated by the survival of the fittest. Cruel rules out.
Because of the particularity of the ability, the research institute gave Su Duan the choice of whether to continue the in-depth inspection.
Although the gene repair solution has been able to solve most of the diseases, no species can completely get rid of the disease, and there are still very few diseases that cannot be cured by modern medicine.
If Su Duan's blood was found to have a curative effect on these incurable diseases, things would probably become more difficult.
Although the Cosmos Convention now protects human rights very strongly, if there are too many forces coveting Su Duan's blood, his situation is of course very dangerous.
——In any era, there are privileged classes above fairness.
So the moment he got the test report, the team leader in charge of Su Duan immediately blocked the news, encrypted the test result, and tried not to let it spread out.
But this is just doing the best of human affairs. After all, the test report has been in the hands of many people before. If you have the heart, you can't hide Su Duan's ability at all.
At that time, many things may not even be in the hands of the research institute. Even if Su Duan is unwilling to do an in-depth test, someone will use his blood to complete the test without permission.
Although Su Duan didn't have a city, he could still sort out this basic truth, so he was very entangled in whether to do an in-depth inspection.
If he didn't do it, he wouldn't be able to fully understand his body, and he might be tricked by someone in a daze in the near future.
And if this in-depth test is really done and it is concluded that his blood can cure terminal illnesses, the situation will not be much better.
Su Duan sighed, and looked down at the smart brain on his wrist which was still turned off.
Although that person hasn't appeared since that day, and the system has returned to normal, Su Duan still has a vague expectation that when he encounters a problem or needs to think, he will subconsciously look at the brain.
Under Su Duan's almost dazed gaze, the brain was not the same as that time, but in the room where Su Duan was alone, the translucent projection screen appeared out of thin air, and the most primitive "start" function slowly appeared on it. .
This function is the simplest one in the code algorithm, and it has even been abandoned in today's computer language system because it is too old, but Su Duan has learned it more than once in the task world, so he can easily understand it at this time.
Seeing the silent response in front of him, his eyes slowly lit up.
......
The results of the in-depth examination came out soon. Although Su Duan's blood can cure most diseases, it is ineffective for those "terminal diseases".
Such a result relieved the members of the project team who cared about Su Duan. In this way, although Su Duan's ability is relatively precious, it is not irreplaceable.
The effect is almost equivalent to a large bottle of walking high-level gene repair fluid, it is difficult for ordinary people to afford it, but those who can afford it will not be brainless and risk violating the cosmic convention to work hard on Su Duan.
After receiving the in-depth inspection result, Su Duan seemed to be in a good mood.
After a period of communication, Miss Researcher, who has established a good relationship with Su Duan, is also in a good mood.
Although from the standpoint of a scientific researcher, she should have expected that Su Duan's blood would have an effect on the terminally ill, which would undoubtedly save many people, but from the standpoint of a friend, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The gap in this area is really too big. If Su Duan's blood can really cure terminal illnesses, at the best point of view, it will only be a blood supply machine all year round, not only to meet the research needs of medical laboratories, but also to give priority to the powerful Provide "drugs".
If you think about it a little bit, you will know how terrible this is.
And Su Duan was just an ancient earth creature who had just woken up from a long slumber, and his physique was still so delicate. To him, that kind of high-intensity blood extraction was no different from overdrawing his life.
The researcher lady looked at Su Duan's face full of uncontrollable joy, and at the right time raised her face and warned him: "Even if this is the case, you can't casually reveal your abilities to others in the future, you understand?"
Su Duan pursed his lips into a smile, and nodded obediently, "I know."
Because of the previous hint, he already knew that no matter what effect his blood had, what would finally be presented to others would only be the one that was most beneficial to him.
The researcher lady thought that he was simply happy because of the test results, so she couldn't help but patted Su Duan's shoulders who looked like a young boy in front of her.
Although this result was good news for Su Duan, it was a big blow in the eyes of others.
"...The results of the blood sample test came out, the same as the results from the research institute, and it has no effect on the young master's illness."
"I thought I could finally—forget it this time..."
.........
"...It's a pity. I originally wanted to apply to my lord to transfer that ancient earth man from next door to study."
"Professor, in fact, even if the blood of that ancient earthman cannot cure terminal illnesses, it still has high research value. Using his blood as a model, maybe a new type of genetic repair solution can be produced."
"...No need. If you think about it with the back of your stupid head, you know that one person's blood is not enough to support the entire research process. It's too weak. It's only worth it. There's no need to offend others for him."
.......
At this time, the chief designer who was doing daily star network protection at the star network general base did not notice that the superficially normal star network secretly lifted the virtual nerve tentacles, and modified a few trivial test results under his nose.
It's just that there were not many hairs on his head, as if he had sensed it, and another hair fell out danglingly.
