Chapter 5 Nightmare
April 11, 4692, Retired Space Station, Dock Corridor
Everyone ran following the Crono capsule carrying the dying Baiyu medical cabin and Baiyu Crono.
"No, the brain waves are about to disappear," Old Jack stood on the pedal of the running medical cabin: "Just go directly to Kron Laboratory, this body is too serious." Old Jack checked the data again: "Ora, go find Victor, prepare to resurrection, Phantom, Kajia, you two come in with me, and if the others are cool, stay there."
"It's ready, and the transmission will start within three minutes." Ora's voice came out through the mini terminal of the medical cabin.
Phantom and Kajia continued to follow the Kron and Medical Cabin to the laboratory, while the others stayed in place panting.
"Lyon, how did you set up your outpost cannon? It wasn't just a joke. How could you really fire it!" Samson raised the thin Lyon to his eyes and spitted his face.
"Samson, don't be impulsive. The post cannon chain was not completed, and the girl ran away. There was no injury at all before the ship entered the station." Roy affirmed, and raised his hand to throw the armed belt removed from Bai Yu's waist onto his shoulders: "Lyon, go to the girl's frigate and copy the navigation log and bridge surveillance. We can't help, go to the bar to wait for news."
"It's going to take a long time. When Ola drove in, the energy core was on the verge of meltdown. In order to prevent the forced cooling from causing an explosion, the ship carried out safety procedures and locked it on its own. It could only wait for natural cooling. Besides, the air lock of the parking space was broken and it was leaking all the time. I isolated it." Lyon recalled the situation a few minutes ago. Ola drove the frigate. However, it didn't even reduce its speed at that time, so it rushed into the berth of the space station. And when it was overloaded with the main engine and afterburner, it overloaded all the inertia engines and steering engines, and directly shook the tail and hit the intake pressure isolation cabin. Lyon shivered in fear and swallowed. Others recalled the huge collision sound at that time, and it was also a cold sweat. Ola was desperate...
Retired Space Station, Cron Laboratory
Ola and Jack's AI Victor is supervising medical and Cronomic cabins respectively
"The medical cabin memory mark has been extracted, and the mark is not damaged, and it can be transferred." Olathon breathed a sigh of relief.
"The Cronotype has no genetic defects, and all the signs are good. They have been activated. They are now in a deep third-degree sleep state and are ready to receive the memory mark." Victor's tone is much less emotional than Aura, and he sounds a little dull.
"Perform interactive checks." Old Jack browsed various data flashing in the observation room.
"Yes, the interaction test was performed, the cloning body had no genetic defects, and the signs were normal."
"Understand, perform interactive examinations, complete the extraction of memory marks in the medical cabin, and no faults in the memory marks examination." Ola and Victor said respectively.
"Ora, confirm the permanent dormant memory." Old Jack said
"It is expected to take 20 minutes to start confirming permanent dormant memory."
"Dormant memory? What does that mean?" Kajia asked: "Forgotten memory?"
"Memory will not be forgotten, it will be permanently imprinted in the human brain." Old Jack relaxed, sat down slowly, picked up a cup of cold coffee at the table and took a big sip, and said slowly.
"It's impossible. If I hadn't forgotten, I still couldn't remember my black butterfly jumping. Where did the knife be put?" Kajia said depressedly.
"Forgetting is just an incorrect description of one's own feelings. In the past, the scientific community believed that memory was divided into four types, namely instant memory, short-term memory, long-term memory, and permanent memory. If I tell you a few meaningless numbers, you need to repeat it all the time, otherwise you will forget it within a few seconds. This is instant memory, but I asked you what you ate last night..." Old Jack asked Kajia.
"Well, bake cookies and beech soup." Kaja thought for a moment and then said the bad food last night.
“What about last Wednesday night?”
"Forgot..."
"This is short-term memory. The memory time is short, which can take about a few hours or weeks." Old Jack reheated the coffee and continued: "And longer memory is long-term memory. Just like you can play with a knife without thinking, it is like a knife that can be used to play with a knife without thinking. Although it is a muscle memory, it is also controlled by the brain. If memory like your name, gender, and appearance is permanent memory. However, after further research on the human brain, it has been found that there is no such thing as forgetting. Human memory is like a stereo projection, and it is all-round.
Record everything the body has experienced, vision, hearing, taste, smell, touch, and even hallucinations. All of these will never be forgotten and cannot be modified. We call it memory imprints, which is also the main principle of cloning technology. The reason why it is 'forgot' is because the brain automatically sorts and refines this information. Commonly used memories are called manifest memories. These memories will often appear in your mind, while uncommon memories will enter dormant until they are stimulated by the same or related stimuli. For example, I remind you that you drank too much last Wednesday and threw a flying knife with Samson..."
"Oh, my knife was confiscated by Li Deshi!" Kajia thought.
"Look, I just woke up a period of your dormant memory. In fact, many people's behaviors are the same. For example, you will put common things closest to yourself, such as in your pocket, and if you don't use them, you will lock them into a farther cabinet."
"So you said that Bai Yu's memory was not deleted by you? Instead, it was dormant." Kajia said incisively.
"It is not impossible to forcefully destroy the memory imprint and cause a fault, but it will definitely lead to personality splitting." Old Jack touched the back of his cold neck and said helplessly: "Old man, I dare not do this, let Ora know if I am still alive."
"So will Bai Yu wake up from the past memory due to external stimulation?" Kajia was frightened: "I heard that if her memory wakes up, everyone will be ruined?"
‘Ka’, the cup in Phantom’s hand was crushed, and Kajia shrank his neck in fright: “Lyon said.”
"No, I repeatedly dormant all her previous memories. Unless it is extremely exciting, there will be no problem." Jack shook his head.
"Are you sure you won't have what you call 'extreme stimulation'?" asked the Phantom seriously.
"Ora is a test. Bai Yu's artificial intelligence was Aura. They were inseparable from more than 300 years ago. But now, Bai Yu always thought it was the private property given to her by Bradley. If it was just a general stimulation, the name Aura reminded her of everything." Old Jack looked at the Phantom and said.
"Ha, more than 300 years, it turns out that you have lived for so long." Kajia exclaimed, although she herself was almost the same: "A group of thousand-year-old monsters."
"..." Old Jack scratched his head and said nothing. After all, he was still one of the main R&D participants in the Kronen cabin technology, and even the earliest user. He counted silently how many aging bodies he had changed.
"Hey..." The Phantom looked up and sighed: "In this era, even his own life is a consumable."
Kaja fell silent, the deep meaning of the phantom words of the chewinger.
Ora quickly searched Bai Yu's memory mark, and carefully looked through the sealed memory. After confirming that it was correct, he transferred the memory mark into Kron's body, and Kron's body began to tremble abnormally.
At this time, Bai Yu was being scratched by one terrifying nightmare fragment after another.
"Our retreat will be cut off..."
"You want to be a hero?"
"It's the Titan battleship!"
"The gravity is too great, the fleet retreats at full speed."
"I'll go, she's still young."
"Although death is still alive!"
"Blood and eternal life are with each other, and light and destruction coexist! Hahaha..."
"Lying down, bomb!"
"Clautia, no..."
"Please help! Please help..."
The blood was filled with a disgusting and sweet smell, which appeared and disappeared in the violent airflow, mixed with the burning smell of hair and synthetic plastic, making people repeatedly review the burning pain of the lungs during breathing, causing the white hot fire that melted the metal to burn and burn the skin that was already covered with scald blisters...
The white feathers in the Kronen cabin twitched violently, spitting out a large number of bubbles in the breathing fluid.
"The Clonoid enters deep second degree dormant, and the cerebral cortex begins to experience abnormal stimulation reactions."
"The sedative has been injected..., the clonal body has returned to normal signs and entered a wake-up state after 10 minutes."
"Double-substitute drinks have been taken, and the clone body has begun to wake up. Please prepare for the cabin."
Kajia pushed the wheelchair, and the Phantom came to the Kronen cabin with the insulation blanket and waited, while old Jack pushed the medical chamber to the incineration room. There was Bai Yu's seriously injured body. After a few minutes, the Kronen cabin cover automatically popped up, and the transparent, sticky and warm breathing fluid slowly flowed out. Bai Yu was washed out of the Kronen cabin naked, Kajia and Phantom immediately put the insulation blanket on her, patting Bai Yu's back and cheeks respectively to help her remove the respiratory fluid from the respiratory tract.
"Inhale, take a deep breath."
"Huh, cough, cough cough..." Bai Yu coughed violently, and breathing fluid that was gradually turbid due to deoxygenation and began to turn into gelatinous substances.
"Okay, okay, look at me, look at me." Kajia knelt in front of Bai Yu, smoothed her wet hair, patted her face and asked, "Who am I?"
"Cough, violent woman, cough... cough" Bai Yu glanced at her listlessly.
"It's quite humorous, it seems nothing is wrong." Kajia smiled.
"Helping her up first." Phantom and Kajia took Bai Yu's arm and raised her up and put her in a wheelchair. They tucked the insulation blanket to cover her leaked spring light. "Go back to the rest area, you need to get used to it for a while."
"Well, shadow, you are here too." Bai Yu still started fighting with cold teeth.
"The temperature increase point, the human body cannot withstand too much temperature difference." Ola jumped onto the projection of the wheelchair and adjusted the temperature of the insulation blanket to 50 degrees: "How do you feel? Unlucky."
"K. Long Cabin, cough, what happened?" Bai Yu felt his body warm, very tired, weak all over. The insulation blanket on his body was as heavy as an armored combat suit without power on, and he couldn't lift his head. The remaining breathing fluid on his body began to dry, sticky like a thick layer of clay that was about to dry, which was very uncomfortable.
"It's safe now. Let's talk about it specifically. I'll give you some sedatives later. It's better not to get out of bed within three days. You can take a complete vacation within one month." Ora comforted Bai Yu and gave Kajia and the others a blank look.
"Cough, I want, cough, take a shower." Bai Yu tried to lift his head up again, but then he leaned to the other side again, and finally leaned his head against the Phantom.
Kajia rubbed the sticky residue of respiratory fluid on his hands, watched Bai Yu rub the gray residue of his hair onto the Phantom's black robe, and curled his lips: "It looks quite difficult to wash."
"Shut up"
"Shut up"
"Shut up, ahem"
