It was a dark night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.

Chen Feng stood on the balcony of his personal suite, gazing at the sky, his mind wandering.

Beep, beep.

The reminder sounded, and the owner of a room downstairs came back.

Chen Feng picked up the communicator, "Brother Hu, are you there?"

Ding Hu's slightly tired voice came, "What's the matter?"

"Chat?"

"I'll be right over."

Three minutes later, Ding Hu appeared on Chen Feng's balcony, crossed his legs, holding a tall glass, and commented, "Tsk, the captain's treatment is good, the drinks are fresher than mine."

"Brother Hu, don't joke, did you just go on a mission?"

Chen Feng found several red marks on Ding Hu's face, which were traces left by the atomic therapy device that had just repaired deep injuries.

"Yes, there was a landslide in the lower level of Titan's collection station and the equipment was damaged. I brought a maintenance team there."

"What's that on your face?"

"It collapsed again when we were setting up the equipment."

Chen Feng was slightly surprised, "Ah? Were there any casualties?"

"Three comrades were sacrificed. Fortunately, the mission was successfully completed in the end."

Chen Feng was silent for a long time.

"Brother Hu, were you sad when you saw your comrades die?"

"Why should I be sad? You don't know how important that collection station is. It is an honor to donate in a major mission. I will not be sad because of the sacrifice of my comrades, I will only be proud of them. I also don't want others to have any psychological ups and downs because of me when I die in the future, which will affect their thinking and judgment."

"But didn't they still die? Why are you so cold-blooded?"

Ding Hu pondered for a few seconds, "I wanted to save them at that time. I used my body to block the collapsed ice. But the engineering armor they wore was not as strong as the Star Armor, and they still died. If possible, I would rather die for them. I'm not cold-blooded, I just know that I shouldn't be sad."

Chen Feng pondered Ding Hu's words for a long time.

"You always live so rationally, which makes you look less like a human and more like a robot."

Ding Hu asked, "Why?"

"Let's talk about the definition of biology first. Brother Hu, do you know the structure of E. coli phage?"

Chen Feng said, asking the smart assistant Weiwei to project the three-dimensional structure diagram of the phage.

Ding Hu obviously had never paid attention to such primitive knowledge before, and this was the first time he saw it, and he immediately felt very interested.

Chen Feng pointed at the projection of the bacteriophage and asked, "Does this look like the lunar module used by humans when they first landed on the moon?"

Ding Hu nodded, "Quite similar. It's a very sophisticated biological structure. Nature is incredible."

"Do you think this is a living thing or a machine?"

Ding Hu thought for a moment, "In a sense, it is a machine."

Chen Feng asked again, "But bacteriophages also have DNA."

Ding Hu thought for a moment, "Okay, it's a living thing, but through artificial synthesis, we can now directly create bacteriophages."

Chen Feng smiled, "So isn't what you're talking about a paradox? We can synthesize it, but nature has also synthesized it. Is it a machine or life?"

Ding Hu was confused by Chen Feng's question and remained silent.

Chen Feng took a deep breath, "In fact, we humans are only tens of millions of times more complex than bacteriophages. Our essence is actually the same."

Ding Hu resolutely denied, "But so far, the atomizer still cannot directly create humans."

Chen Feng said, "But that's only now, what about a thousand years later? Do you think it's possible?"

Ding Hu thought for five minutes, "Maybe?"

Chen Feng didn't answer him again, just said: "In theory, as long as we can create atoms point by point, then we should be able to create humans from scratch point by point. But why did the researchers give up this research, and all the results of theoretical deductions point to one answer, that is, it will never be done, because the difficulty coefficient is infinite."

Ding Hu was surprised, "You even went to see it specifically?"

"Yes, I have read all the relevant articles. Guess what the researchers have said is the difficulty? Isn't the essence of the human body nothing more than a combination of various organic molecules? Why is the difficulty coefficient infinite?"

Ding Hu was confused by Chen Feng's question.

"Brother Hu, let me tell you the answer. Because we can copy the body, but we cannot copy the mind or the emotion. When the mind and emotion are complex to a certain extent, they are infinitely complex things, and can even contain the entire universe, so they can never be synthesized artificially. We can synthesize a human body, but it is just an empty shell. We can install a chip in the shell, so that it can be stimulated by bioelectricity and make actions that look exactly like a real person, but it is not really a person."

What Chen Feng said was a research done by a group of scientists two hundred years ago. The thesis is publicly available and can be checked in the junior high school textbooks.

Of course, since the research failed many times, the government has stopped the project.

Although the project failed and violated common sense and ethics, it did provide important scientific references.

Ding Hu frowned and looked at Chen Feng, "What do you want to say?"

"I want to say that when friends, brothers, comrades-in-arms, and relatives die, we should be sad. Because emotions are necessary for us. Without rich emotions, humans are no longer humans, but machines. I even think that, for example, bacteriophages, or animals and plants that can only act according to biological instincts and cannot use emotions to judge and act against instincts, are not considered life!"

"These are all machines made by nature. The difference between nature's machines and machines made by us humans is that the machines created by the laws of the universe and nature are more sophisticated, and the machines created by humans have not yet reached that precision. There is no essential difference."

"Only when we have rich emotions can we say that a living organism has escaped from the realm of machines. As for us humans, the reason why we are an important species surviving in the universe and the reason why we want to continue to exist is not because we need to preserve our bodies, but all human thoughts! Only when we have thoughts and emotions can we be qualified to consider ourselves a true civilization!"

"Without emotions, what's the difference between us and those rare animals and plants that became extinct in the long river of history? Magnified in the universe, we humans are nothing more than a pitiful extinct rare species, a precious machine." "

The reason why we refuse to give up, the reason why we still want to continue to live, the reason why people continue to be willing to board spaceships full of gene libraries to crash into the invader barrier outside the solar system in the past few hundred years, trying to rush out and continue the race. Even if there is no hope at all, everyone still rushes forward. It's because our emotions tell us that we don't want to die!"

"Even if it means sacrifice, it is the deepest feelings lurking in everyone's heart that make us willing to sacrifice, not bullshit logic! If we really follow logic strictly, no one wants to die! Because survival is the most basic and fundamental logic! Our feelings have always been defeating logic, but why can't you wake up?"

"Brother Hu, wake up! Logic is indeed useful, but no matter how perfect the logic is, it can never completely replace emotional needs. You are like this, General Tang is like this, and everyone is like this. Don't you really realize that there is something wrong with this situation?"

Chen Feng grabbed Ding Hu's shoulders and shook him violently.

"Your comrade just died! You risked your life to save others but failed! You should be very sad. Even if you are strong enough not to cry, at least show me a sad face!"

A long time passed, as if it was still.

Chen Feng almost thought he succeeded.

But Ding Hu shook his head in dismay, "I can make a sad face, but that is still my rational judgment, not an action prompted by emotion. I still don't quite understand what you mean."

Chen Feng turned his head to look at the villa belonging to Tang Tianxin, the commander of the base.

He knew that she heard what he said.

Chen Feng originally wanted to say this to everyone.

It's just a pity that no one seemed to understand.

The night sky was still quiet, with only the hissing sound of shuttles passing through the air in the distance.

Chen Feng waved his hand, "Brother Hu, go and rest. I'm tired, and you're tired too."

He hadn't felt this lonely for a long time.

This was the situation he had always dreamed of, because he was the first player who didn't want to have anything to do with anyone and just wanted to travel a thousand years later to live a carefree life.

But now he hated this situation.

This broken place was terrible.

Ding Hu nodded, "Then I'm leaving."

"Let's go."

"Actually, I forgot to say one thing. Among the technicians who died, Liu Weiwei was my partner and the mother of my son. I've also watched movies and TV shows before. In this situation, I should be heartbroken, but I just can't feel it."

Ding Hu said, and turned away shaking his head.

Chen Feng felt like he fell into an ice cave.

This was the heaviest blow he had ever received since he started to work hard. It

almost made him collapse on the spot.

But he finally adjusted himself after half an hour.

Because he remembered the tear that Tang Tianxin shed at the last moment.

That drop of crystal tears floating in the air suddenly became the most solid fulcrum in his heart.

According to the current intensity of penetration, even if mankind perishes, even if Tang Tianxin finds out that her little hobby is a pathetic conspiracy, she finally realizes that she has been used, she can feel pain, regret, frustration and despair, but she should not cry.

Her tears prove that at that moment, the basic human emotions in her body were revived, and the passive amygdala was revitalized.

There are two possibilities.

At that moment, the latent psychological suggestion weakened.

Or maybe Tang Tianxin secreted more progesterone because of her pregnancy, making the part of her body that belongs to the mother's emotion particularly active, breaking through the shackles of the penetration suggestion.

Chen Feng took a deep breath and reminded himself.

There is still hope.

I can't give up, I can't despair.

Looking around, I was the only sober person in the world.

I had to make her pregnant.

I had to try to awaken the human emotions in her body and make a gap in the almost unbreakable wall of psychological suggestion!

Chen Feng's intuition told him that as long as he succeeded this time, he might be able to completely eradicate psychological infiltration next time.

He thought with gritted teeth.

Am I not stunning and outstanding enough?

Then I will become even more stunning!

Since the emotional offensive doesn't work, I will continue to become stronger, so strong that I can seduce her with my tender body!

Chen Feng clicked on a technical document.

The document was about the genetic fluid injection that every baby must experience when it is born and can only experience once in a lifetime.

He wanted to take a gamble.

He bet that this body of his had been copied and pasted from thousands of years ago and had never been injected with genetic fluid.

He bet that the effects of serum and genetic fluid only looked similar, but were different in nature.

He bet that he could undergo another qualitative change.

Even if the mortality rate of infants was one-third, the mortality rate of adults was twice that of infants, as high as two-thirds.

He decided to take a gamble.
