Chapter 169 Realize Immortality [1/3 Pursuit]
Age of Crisis 144.
The year before the Space Force broke away from the international independence of the Earth.
According to the preset year, SHIELD executives collectively woke up at this time.
The awakened people came to the wide conference room. They looked at each other and looked at each other. Some were old and some were still as heroic as they were back then.
Tony came to Howard and looked at the old man in front of him, but felt inexplicably sad. He hugged his "father" and said, "You are now like my father."
In the hug, Howard patted Tony on the back: "I'm old, I'll see you in the future."
For more than a hundred years, Howard wakes up every once in a while. He has been committed to studying the smart son shielding technology in the macro world. Whenever he encounters a problem, he will hibernate. But after more than ten years, the Red Queen solved this problem and he woke up again. When he encountered the next problem, he entered hibernation again, and it continued over and over again until now.
Just then.
Sun Yu came to the conference room in the light gray Director General S.H.E.L.D. uniform.
Seeing this, everyone stood up collectively and spoke in unison: "Hello, Director!"
Sun Yu pressed his palm down and signaled everyone to sit down and talk, but when his eyes focused on Howard, he was stunned.
Although he knew all this, when he saw Howard's appearance at this moment, he was still shocked by a little. You know, when he pulled Howard out of the secondary universe, he was only in his early 20s.
Virtual Smart Core Shield Room.
"Everyone, time has passed, and in a blink of an eye, it has spanned a hundred years. Now, the outside world has changed a lot and we have been forgotten. From then on, we are no longer the S.H.E.L.D., which is admired by thousands of people."
"For a hundred years, we basically did not communicate with the outside world. We have never attended any PDC meeting except for providing food supplies, so that the PDC is very dissatisfied with us now."
"When I woke up just now, the Red Queen told me that the PDC sent people to look for it countless times, but it was shirked away, so that when there was a turmoil, the local armed forces even attacked here."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. They didn't expect that someone would dare to attack this rock-solid super barrier.
"Listen, within a year, the world pattern will undergo a large-scale reshuffle. I awaken you at this time to quickly get familiar with the world. It is completely different from the past."
"Next, please feel free to Howard Stark..."
Howard, who is 87 years old, is still walking vigorously in the virtual world, and is alive. He stood up, walked to the middle of the circular conference table, and raised his hand to exhale a 5D holographic projection.
"Everyone, after more than a hundred years of exploration, although we have made no achievements in basic physics, we have been able to develop rapidly in other fields, thanks to the high-end technology obtained by the director in the deputy universe."
"Super quantum computers have been implemented long ago and have been applied to various functional departments of SHIELD."
“In terms of energy, the traditional nuclear fusion boiling water model has been abandoned, and we have a completely new approach at this stage, thanks to Tony’s help.”
Howard glanced at Tony as he said this.
Tony nodded slightly to his father.
"Now we have a device that can directly convert heat energy into energy. I call this device an energy converter. By absorbing the huge energy released by nuclear fusion, the converter can convert this energy into electrical energy."
A burst of warm applause sounded at the scene...
"Next, I want to announce the news. I hope everyone will be calm after listening to it."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned and they looked at Howard curiously.
“The immortal technology has matured…”
When everyone heard Howard say this, there was a sound of gasping for breath. Everyone looked at each other, and an incredible look appeared in their eyes.
Seeing the expressions of everyone present, Howard smiled slightly.
"In the 16th year of the crisis, we obtained Dr. Shians' complete set of thought stamping techniques, and at the same time, he also provided all the brain science knowledge he had."
"After a hundred years of development and experimentation, we have finally developed a technology that can copy human consciousness. I call it the consciousness disk."
"The consciousness disk technology is a technology derived from brain science and brain computer science. As the name suggests, it is to download and store the memory and consciousness in the brain into the consciousness disk."
"Every 12 hours, the consciousness disk uploads the latest memories and ideology to the total server, and it can be uploaded twice in 24 hours a day."
Just then, Rogers raised his hand.
Howard looked at Rogers: "You said!"
Rogers leaned on the table with his elbows, crossed his fingers and clenched his fists, and asked in confusion: "Is it considered immortality to copy consciousness and memory?"
Howard walked around the 5D holographic projection, raised his hand and pointed at the projection and said, "Of course, this is called immortality."
"You know, the human brain also has an extreme lifespan, which is about 250-300 years. When the human brain dies, your memory and consciousness will be completely lost, and the consciousness disk will preserve all your consciousness and memories, allowing you to continue to live forever in another form."
Natasha Romanov asked, "That means that after our body dies, can we live in the virtual world? Is it this kind of immortality?"
Howard shook his finger: "No, no, no, the consciousness disk is in both directions and can be read and downloaded, or written to import, but not just living in the virtual world. I will give you two examples."
"First, suppose your physical body dies. On the eve of death, the consciousness disk will copy your consciousness and memory and upload it to the server. I come to you and pull out your consciousness disk from the back of my head and insert it into another clone. After the consciousness and memory are covered, this clone will become a new you."
"Secondly, if your body dies, the consciousness disk is not uploaded and is damaged, that doesn't matter. The server will have a consciousness memory backup within 12 hours. After reinserting the new body, you will only lose these memories within 12 hours."
Natasha narrowed her eyes and continued to ask, "In this way, we can change our bodies at will?"
Howard nodded: "Yes, the body can be changed at will, of course, if you want to become a Terminator completely."
Hearing this, the scene was a little noisy and the executives began to whisper.
"Dr. Howard, then in this way, are we still humans?" Ethan Hunter asked.
"You are asking this question well!" Howard looked at Ethan and continued, "You are afraid that you will feel disagreement with your identity over time. There is a way to solve this."
After the words came to an end, Howard turned his eyes to Sun Yu.
Just then, Sun Yu spoke:
"This is easy to solve. First of all, you have to recognize that it is a clone, just like you are controlling the terminator in the matrix system, but you don't need to connect through the signal, but insert the consciousness disk for direct connection."
"Of course, everyone must have an ontology. Every once in a while, consciousness must return to the human ontology. This will remind you all the time that you are still a human..."
"There can be many cloning bodies. With this technology, it will be of great benefit in future colonial combat against alien civilizations."
"First, from now on, no one will be afraid of death."
"Secondly, the remote connection of communication signals is extremely susceptible to unknown interference. With this technology, we will not be afraid of electronic warfare interference."
"Of course, we also need to formulate relevant policies and measures for this technology, and relevant policies will be issued to you in the near future."
...
Shao Liwen thought about it and asked, "If the backup consciousness disk is inserted into another body when the body is not dead yet, will two selfs appear?"
Howard nodded: "Of course this may happen, so we need to formulate strict relevant regulations and policies to avoid this."
"If the system receives information confirming the death of the person, it activates a clone and implants the consciousness disk that was backed up in advance."
"But there is a situation that may occur. The body is dead, but the system has not received any information confirming death. If this happens, the system will comprehensively evaluate the awareness upload time. Normally, it is uploaded twice every 24 hours. If you have not received any upload information within 30 days, you can start the resurrection program when you confirm that you cannot contact us."
Hearing Howard's explanation, everyone nodded slightly.
"I understand what Dr. Howard means. As long as the consciousness plate is not broken, we will not die."
"You heard it wrongly, the consciousness disk is backed up. Even if the consciousness disk is broken, there will be backups of your and my consciousness memory on the central server."
The two SEAL captains chatted privately.
Just then.
Sun Yu opened his arms and said to everyone: "Welcome to join the Human Immortal Club."
Immediately, there was a thunderous applause in the virtual room.
Although there will be many small problems in this form of immortality, at least the biggest problem in front of you is time.
Sun Yu looked at the executives who were discussing the topic of immortality with each other, and felt a little disappointed in his heart.
"You can all live forever, but I can't do it for the time being!" This is Sun Yu's voice.
After all, this kind of consciousness disk is an electronic component. If Sun Yu uses this technology now, he will undoubtedly disclose everything deep in his heart to Zhizi.
In other words, under the current situation and conditions, everyone else can live forever, but Sun Yu can't do it.
"Paipa--"
Sun Yu patted twice: "After the meeting is over, you can all upgrade the brain machine chip, and you can switch to the consciousness disk in the future."
After saying that, Sun Yu turned his attention to Howard.
