Chapter 165 Separation

Li Yi suddenly made a surprising discovery while studying virtual reality.

On the vast dream plain which is only about thirty meters high, Li Yi's agile figure is moving around on a pile of surging foam, searching, checking and absorbing carefully.

Due to the continuous strengthening of his own soul, the speed of digesting memory fragments is significantly increasing.

Therefore, while he devoted all his energy to study and ponder during this period, he had unknowingly completed a systematic mastery of all the knowledge in the entire category and completely got started.

Before that, he only had a basic understanding and relatively systematic application knowledge, but it was not enough to be considered a complete beginner.

The value of this knowledge system is naturally not on the same level as other knowledge and skills.

For a knowledge system to become a complete introduction to his cognition, it must have one characteristic.

That is all the relevant knowledge, being able to understand the causes and consequences, the ins and outs, forming linkages, and drawing inferences from one example.

Only in this way can you be considered to have entered a knowledge system.

Otherwise, you can only be considered to have mastered the branch knowledge and branch fragments under the knowledge category.

This cannot be used effectively.

Just like learning a language, even if you have learned enough vocabulary but cannot speak it or understand it clearly, it means you haven't really learned it.

On the contrary, although they don't have a lot of vocabulary, they can speak and guess the meaning of what they read. This is called getting started and forming an effective linkage.

And the proficiency of knowledge means putting it into practice.

When encountering a necessary situation, you can use your knowledge to quickly come up with corresponding feasible solutions.

The mastery of knowledge is to study things and acquire knowledge.

It can be connected with various phenomena and details in life at any time, and can be extended and expanded to various aspects of the environment, society, etc., thereby mastering new knowledge and theorems.

Generally speaking, senior experts who have mastered specialized knowledge are mostly in the proficiency stage, with a few in the mastery stage.

Among them, senior experts at the mastery stage are the real backbone of an institute.

The perfect mastery of knowledge is to bring forth new ideas through the old.

Expand the scope of knowledge mastery, form in-depth linkage across all categories, form a highly effective organic whole, or produce new inventions and discoveries with qualitative effects.

At present, Li Yi has perfect skills but not knowledge.

The reason for this is purely because most skill memories come from muscle memory, which is easy to absorb.

The absorption efficiency of knowledge-based memory is relatively low, and he needs to figure it out deeply enough to put the puzzle pieces of the knowledge system together into a complete panoramic picture.

Among them, the relevant knowledge categories of virtual reality include knowledge of informatics, neurology, brain science, soul science, virtual programming, basic art, basic physics, and virtual hardware.

Therefore, virtual reality is the subject with the most categories and the highest degree of integration among the knowledge systems he currently possesses.

Therefore, as Li Yi suddenly understood the ins and outs of this knowledge, a large number of memory fragments suddenly appeared on the dream plain! They were all kinds of memory fragments that were as dazzling as the divine skills and divine scientific knowledge he had obtained before! Seeing this scene, Li Yi was quite surprised.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully observed these colorful bubbles, and reached out to grab them.

Click.

When you hold the bubble in your hand, it feels noticeably heavier than the regular kind.

"As I recall, only knowledge and skills related to divinity can have this level of colorful special effects, right?"

"Could it be that, when a knowledge system is highly integrated to the level of virtual reality, it can also evolve into a kind of divine technology?"

"Or does it mean that in my dream judgment, the knowledge of virtual reality is as valuable as divine knowledge?"

The main color of the colorful bubble that Li Yi caught was red.

He put his eyes closer and took a closer look.

Hmm? These memory fragments are surprisingly rich in detail.

One coin contains about the same amount of information as five or six ordinary coins.

He tried to press it inside.

It only took a moment.

He felt that he had quickly understood a lot of knowledge in his mind.

Very high purity!

There are almost no redundant memories! The content is all about him in a parallel world, participating in the development of a virtual mother machine.

In this fragment, he is the expert in hardware debugging, and has been matching different codes according to different hardware conditions.

There was a thoughtful expression in Li Yi's eyes.

"That's interesting. Could it be that when the knowledge you have acquired is of a certain special nature, this high-quality memory fragment will be activated?"

"Or is it that knowledge like virtual reality is special enough to make this happen?"

The problem could not be solved, but Li Yi did not think much about it and quickly absorbed these high-quality memory fragments.

With these memory fragments, the virtual reality knowledge that would have taken him at least ten days to reach a proficient level may now only take two or three days.

It was a pleasant surprise.

…

12 hours later.

A meteor streaked across the sky above Planet 33.

Not long after, a small starship landed on the outskirts of the southern ruins with a rumbling sound.

It was Xiaozhuang and others who came with the dream virtual mother machine at the request of Mu Tianlei.

And everyone also saw this legendary dream killing machine.

In a large, square quiet room with incandescent light inside the starship, people walked in one after another.

Except for Zhou Fuli who was in charge of guarding and another member of the six-member group, everyone else gathered here.

Li Yi took a quick look and saw a square machine about the size of a small room, with dense lines and wrapped with colorful electrical tapes.

"Is this the Dream Realm virtual mother machine? Why does it look so crude?"

Zhang Pengting asked curiously.

Xiao Zhuang said: "After all, it is a prototype. It needs debugging, code modification, hardware parameter modification, and module assembly modification every day. It is definitely not packaged so delicately and beautifully. It is fine as long as it can be used."

"By the way, this thing has been sealed for so many years, Chief Mu, I'm not sure if it can function normally."

Mu Tianlei said: "I don't care what the current situation is. I just want you to transform this thing into a state that can separate the mysterious thought. Didn't Li Yi propose a corresponding concept before? Can you realize it?"

Xiao Zhuang said: "Now it depends on whether the function of this dream virtual mother machine is powerful. If it is powerful, it may be feasible, but sir, I can't guarantee that it will work."

Mu Tianlei asked, "Why didn't you do any research during these ten hours? Why did you just sit here and do nothing? Otherwise, why would you say that you can't guarantee whether it can be used now?"

Xiao Zhuang complained, "Commander Mu, I have already repaired it carefully, and also made corresponding modifications and code adjustments. However, I lack testers, so I cannot confirm whether my debugging is effective."

"Is it safe?"

"That can be guaranteed."

Mu Tianlei nodded and immediately called for a medic to bring the frozen Lin Huiyi over.

Then he said, "Now it's your turn to perform."

Xiao Zhuang said to Li Yi, "Before Lin Huiyi comes, Li Yi, since it is you who came up with the idea, why don't you test it first? Don't you have some ideas in your mind that you haven't digested yet?"

Li Yi was about to answer when Xu Weilu said, "Let me go first. They haven't digested the ideological stamp yet, but I have. My situation is more serious. Besides, our Captain Li's brain is very valuable. If the experiment fails, it will be very serious."

In that case, Li Yi let Xu Weilu do the test first.

After all, Xu Weilu's condition was indeed more serious.

As for whether the Dream Plain would be exposed, Li Yi was not too worried. As long as he maintained a normal dreaming state when using the virtual mother machine instead of entering the Dream Plain, it would be enough to solve the problem.

After all, those strange perceptions are isolated from the dream plain.

He only needs to dream normally, and these alien perceptions will automatically appear in the free dream and can be affected by the dream virtual mother machine.

Li Yi had already anticipated this when he proposed the plan.

He can enter a sleeping state at any time and thus enter the dream plain.

You can also choose not to enter the Dream Plain and dream freely.

And in this way, the dream will unfold outside the dream plain.

What was more worrying before was whether those fragments of thought stamps that were isolated outside the dream plain would be drawn into his free dream.

He had tried this before and it worked.

Therefore, the only problem with this plan is whether the dream virtual mother machine can perform corresponding operations on the stamp fragments through dreams.

For example, crushing and extraction.

Xiao Zhuang said, "In that case, Xu Weilu, please find a place to sit down and put on the virtual interactive helmet. If you have any questions, remember to let me know at any time."

Xu Weilu was not vague either. She directly took the wired helmet next to the dream virtual mother machine and sat down against the wall.

Xiaozhuang started typing quickly on the mechanical keyboard.

After a while, the mother machine began to project onto the wall a hazy forest scene that looked like a medieval oil painting.

In the scene, a graceful human figure slowly walked out from the depths of the forest and stretched out her hand to block the light.

Due to the backlight, I couldn't see the specific face clearly.

But the onlookers all had a wonderful feeling: what a beautiful figure! What a lively temperament! Xiaozhuang explained: "Dreams have a third-person perspective and a first-person perspective. Now I choose a fixed-point third-person perspective. Unless the main character in the dream moves too far, I will follow the movement."

Liang Zhishen said with emotion: "Is this Xu Weilu's dream? It turns out that she is so beautiful in her dream...Haha, although she is also beautiful in person, her temperament is different."

Zhang Pengting asked, "What is the principle behind this that can make dreams appear so clear?"

Xiao Zhuang shook his head and said, "I don't know the principle. There are more than a dozen large modules inside this mother machine. They were all made by experts at the time. There is no other one like it outside. Many things can be called the mysterious black box of our human race."

"Plus, the lowest-level hardware coding was done by the great master Wu Huanling. Therefore, I don't understand the specific principles."

"So, I only know the specific principles of the module that I was responsible for. Don't ask me too many details, because I don't understand them either!"

These words immediately blocked everyone's hot and curious hearts.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Xiao Zhuang ignored everyone and continued, "Next, what I need to do is to find the thought stamp that was pulled over from this dream."

"We don't need to pay attention to Xu Weilu in the dream. I will project other areas of the dream. Everyone, help me find where there is something wrong."

"Logically speaking, after digesting the ideological stamp, the corresponding area will definitely produce different heterogeneous changes."

"Therefore, the more incongruous the place is, the more likely it is to be integrated into the mysterious idea."

Mu Tianlei observed Xu Weilu's dream and suddenly said:

"I now understand why Xu Weilu and Lin Huiyi are different. They both absorbed the thought stamp, but one was corroded while the other was fine."

Everyone quickly looked at Mu Tianlei.

Li Yi said: "Commander Mu wants to say that Xu Weilu's dream world is very rich, so her main self is well hidden, so the mysterious thoughts have not found where her main self is?"

Mu Tianlei looked at Li Yi approvingly and explained to the others: "Yes, that's right. You guys should learn more about soul studies when you have time, which are not required for the assessment."

"According to our human theory of soul, the soul is composed of three selves: the ego, the id, and the superego. The superego determines the strength of the soul and is the gathering place of thoughts and the collection of external forces. The id is the collection of fundamental personality and the controller that controls the power of the soul. The ego is the collection of subconsciousness and represents the most fundamental characteristics of a person."

"Generally speaking, if you want to erode a person's soul, you must at least control their ego."

"Like Lin Huiyi, why did Old Lin conclude that the erosion had not been successful before, other than the information you provided at the time."

"The most important point is that I felt that Lin Huiyi's true self has not completely disappeared."

"If the original self disappears, if we want to save Lin Huiyi, I'm afraid only those who specialize in this kind of characteristics can use her undestroyed self to reshape her soul."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Liang Zhishen asked quickly: "Can a strong person above the heavenly position resurrect people and revive souls?"

Mu Tianlei glared at Liang Zhishen and said, "When listening to others, you must grasp the key points! I've already said that only those who specialize in soul-related characteristics and above have some possibility."

"In fact, our Xingyu Federation has only succeeded in one case so far."

"So, don't have unrealistic fantasies in your mind! Once a person dies, he is dead!"

"For us humans, death is still irreversible!"

Li Yi asked curiously:

"Commander Mu, who is this person on our human side who specializes in soul-related characteristics?"

Mu Tianlei said: "This is confidential information."

Lin Xiaohu was surprised and asked, "We are all top-level mecha masters, and this is not possible?"

Mu Tianlei said:

"You will not be qualified to know until you are promoted to the middle stage of the heavenly rank or above, or assume important positions such as captain. The reason for this is naturally due to the rarity of soul-type characteristics."

"Think about it, with such a strong man here, even if we can't bring people back to life, it will still be easy to treat the seriously injured and dying."

"When one reaches the Heavenly Stage, his recovery ability is extremely strong. If one is seriously injured at that stage, it must be extremely serious injuries such as organ annihilation, gene destruction, and soul damage, or the end of lifespan, before he may face the crisis of death."

"And a strong person who can continuously save souls is equivalent to making our fighting power inexhaustible."

"Such a top-level expert is naturally the aliens' key hunting target."

"Once too much information is exposed, even just the name, it can be very dangerous."

"After all, even those above the Heavenly Rank are afraid of being surrounded and killed by multiple masters of the same level."

Everyone suddenly understood.

The owner of such a rare trait really needs to keep it secret to avoid disclosure of his whereabouts.

As they were talking, everyone was also looking for the sense of incongruity in Xu Weilu's dream. Soon, they found four incongruent areas, which corresponded exactly to the number of steel seal fragments that Xu Weilu had digested.

…

The offending areas are above the stream, banyan tree, rocks, and swimming fish.

Perhaps because not much time has passed, the incongruous areas and objects are easy to distinguish.

That is a difference in painting style that is visible to the naked eye.

Then, Xiaozhuang clattered on the keyboard, inputting the corresponding location area coordinates, trying to "dig these areas out" of Xu Weilu's dream.

He said: "In theory, the dream virtual mother machine can control Xu Weilu's dreams to a certain extent."

"However, if I rashly remove these offending areas now, there are still risks. First, it will arouse the vigilance of the mysterious thoughts and cause destruction. Second, Xu Weilu's soul's superego and ego will fight back."

"After all, he is a high-level evolver, and his soul strength is different from that of the previous experimenters."

"Oh, one more thing. If the power of the mysterious thought is extraordinary, after it is removed, it will in turn cause harm to everyone present. You also need to pay attention to it."

"So, I need you to take care of Xu Weilu's body. If anything goes wrong, wake her up immediately."

"If there are still side effects after awakening, or if you are forcibly eroded by mysterious thoughts, freeze it immediately. Don't hesitate. Got it?"

Everyone nodded intently.

Mu Tianlei said calmly: "Don't worry, I'm here, so why should I worry about that mysterious thought causing any trouble?"

Li Yi asked: "I have a question. If the mysterious thought is successfully removed, what is used to seal and preserve that thought?"

Xiao Zhuang was also stunned for a moment and said, "That's true. I actually forgot about this."

Lin Wendong said: "Old Mu and I both have thought steel nails in our hands. We can generate new steel stamps at any time to nail down the mysterious thoughts. As for the carrier of the thought steel stamp, we can use the clone of Jiang Chaoqun that we captured before and store the thoughts there."

Everyone immediately looked at Jiang Chaoqun.

Jiang Chaoqun spread his hands and said, "Can I have any other opinions at this time? Of course I support all the instructions of Captain Lin."

All the necessary details had been confirmed, and after Jiang Chaoqun's clone was delivered, Xiaozhuang began the operation.

Li Yi kept staring at Xiaozhuang's movements, combining his already powerful knowledge of virtual reality with his concentration on figuring out and verifying his own ideas.

After a while, everyone saw that on the projection screen, a mosaic-style stream was slowly becoming thinner as Xiaozhuang continued to input and refresh the code.

Li Yi quickly understood Xiaozhuang's operating ideas.

It turned out that the interactive information of the corresponding area of ​​the dream was directly modified, which in turn caused Xu Weilu's brain to produce corresponding dream reactions.

This method is indeed feasible. It is equivalent to directly changing the part of Xu Weilu's dream that was eroded, thereby expelling the thoughts out of the dream.

As long as the expulsion is successful, those thoughts will be driven out of Xu Weilu's soul.

At the moment of popping out, it will separate from Xu Weilu and come out of her body.

If it is the thought of a weak person, I am afraid nothing will change.

But this is the thought of the top strong men. I am afraid that just coming to the material world outside the soul will cause huge changes in the outside world.

At this moment, with Xiaozhuang's operation, the first thought, as Li Yi expected, suddenly "popped" out of Xu Weilu's soul and came to the material world outside the body.

Pop-up moment——

The wind moves without a source!

Fire, the void burns spontaneously!

Thunder sounded out of nowhere!

Electricity bursts out like a snake!

In an instant, wind, fire, thunder and lightning, and all kinds of strange phenomena appeared out of nowhere.

Mu Tianlei shouted: "Everyone, crouch down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Tianlei took out something from his chest and threw it into the air ahead! Boom!!! Instantly, a loud noise that covered the heavens and the earth was heard, and it instantly spread out of the starship and reached hundreds of kilometers in one breath.

The sound was so loud and fierce that it instantly caused everyone's eardrums to hurt and their hearts to beat violently.
