Soon, Heti and Rebecca came to Gwen's study, followed by Kamel and Pitman. Except for Heti, who came from the government office, the other three were summoned by Amber from the lab of the Magitech Research Institute.
As soon as they entered, Heti noticed the solemn atmosphere around Gwen. It was so solemn that even Amber could not dilute it. She immediately asked, "Ancestor, what happened?"
"Before we get down to business, there is one thing I think it is time to tell you," Gwen said as he looked around the room. Those who were here were the most trustworthy people around him. "You should know that I have once devoured the soul of an Eternal Sleeper."
Heti nodded. "Yes, that was last year."
"From the memory of the Eternal Sleeper, I cracked the secret of their mental network," Gwen said in a deep voice. "All along, I have been accessing their network through the mental connection. A lot of their confidential information and technology came through this way."
As his voice trailed off, the people in the room could not help but look at each other with different expressions. Pitman looked like he had expected it, Heti was a little surprised and a contemplative look, Amber looked at Gwen with a 'you are a bad old man' look, while Kamel flashed four times four to show courtesy. Gwen did not understand what his look meant.
Rebecca could not help but exclaim, "Wow!!"
Obviously, everyone in the room more or less had some thoughts or doubts in this regard. Only Rebecca, the silly one, did not realize where the ancestor's unknown knowledge and experience came from until today.
"I did guess that you were investigating the Eternal Sleepers through some secret channel, but I didn't expect that you actually... connected to their network," Heidi said with a sigh. "So you didn't tell us this before because you were worried about leaking the secret?"
"The Eternal Sleeper's ability to peek into memories and weave illusions is very tricky. I did not want them to know that their network had been infiltrated, so I could only hide it from the people around me." Gwen nodded, confirming Heti's guess. "But it doesn't matter now. I have mastered part of their network and eliminated the followers of the Eternal Sleeper in the main city area of Cecil."
Then, Gwen briefly described the mental network of the Eternal Sleeper and the process of him accessing the network. He concealed his special power as a 'satellite spirit', and explained his ability with the spiritual mutation brought about by his resurrection.
Because sooner or later he would expand his power in the network of the Eternal Sleeper, Gwen had long planned to tell some reliable people about his access to the network of the Eternal Sleeper. But he never found the opportunity. And the information that Daniel just sent made him realize that there was no time to waste.
After Gwen said this part of the truth, Kamel, who had been in contact with the technology of the Eternal Sleeper, quickly connected his research. The two arcane flames on his head became extraordinarily bright, and he looked into Gwen's eyes. "Since you can already access the mental network of the Eternal Sleeper with your own power … then the equipment you let the Arcanotech Research Institute make is for …"
"Expanding the battle results. The mental network is a good thing, we also need to use it." Gwen nodded, and looked at Pitman who was standing beside Kamel. "So, how is the non-implantable artificial nerve cord test?"
The artificial nerve cord was not a technology that was developed from scratch. Ever since the biochemical engineers of the Doomsday Order created it, this bio-mechanical creation had been developed and perfected by the Doomsday Order and the Church of the Eternal Sleep for decades. As a former member of the Dual Cultist Order, Pitman had mastered this technology. On the other hand, Daniel had been researching the nerve cord in his body for more than a decade and had already simulated the structure of a non-implanted nerve cord. Therefore, Gawain had ready-made data, ready-made technicians, and ready-made experimental processing environment. It would not take long to produce a usable product. The only thing that would take time was testing the sample.
"In fact, we have already produced a sample a while ago." Pitman smiled proudly, and then looked at Rebecca awkwardly. "But when we were testing, there was an explosion in Miss Rebecca's lab, and our side was also affected … so all the testing and adjustment work is not completed yet."
Rebecca immediately shrunk her neck, and Gwen at the same time recalled the situation, and found that it was true.
Not long ago, there was an explosion in the lab where Rebecca used to test the power structure of the magic train, and the experiment accident even caused serious injuries. Pitman, Druil, and the alchemy apprentices were the first to arrive at the scene, and at that time, Pitman mentioned that he was testing the nerve cord …
It was a regrettable and painful thing, but the accident had happened, and Gwen could only accept the fact. "So, what's the result of the current stage of the test?"
"Non-implantable nerve cord is indeed feasible, and it can establish a stable and reliable connection between the human brain and the magitech device. At the same time, the damage and pressure on the human body are also reduced to an acceptable level, but there are also many shortcomings," Pitman said. "First of all, the current anti-interference ability is still too weak. Because there is no direct connection between the nerve cord and the brain, the human brain's subconscious can't be effectively controlled, so after the 'immersion', the testers are easily 'awakened' by the external environment, and this requires an environment that can effectively isolate external interference. Second, there is a short-term 'cognitive disorder', and some of the testers continued to hallucinate for a few minutes after the connection ended. We suspect that this is because the nerve cord is not directly connected to the brain, so the brain can't sense the 'disconnection' in time after a long period of connection, so they continue to be immersed in the habitual hallucinations."
"I have a plan for this." As soon as Pitman finished speaking, Kamel added, "We can design a scene with a strong reminder before the disconnection, to let the brain know that it is going to return to the real world, and this may reduce the duration of the subsequent cognitive disorder."
"How can this' disconnected scene 'and the process of the disconnection of the nerve cord be 100% consistent?" Pitman asked in response to Kamel's suggestion. "If the 'disconnected scene' happens, but the nerve cord is not disconnected, or if the nerve cord is disconnected, but there is a problem with the disconnected scene, the brain of the connected person may fall into a more serious state of cognitive disorder …"
"We can make three confirmations during this process. The nerve cord controller sends a signal to the illusion generation matrix that it is ready to disconnect. After the illusion matrix receives the signal, it returns the signal to the nerve cord controller, indicating that it is ready. After the nerve cord controller receives the second feedback signal, it sends a final confirmation signal, indicating that both parties have completed the synchronization. After the illusion matrix receives this signal, it prompts the brain to disconnect the connection, and at the same time, the nerve cord shuts down. This can reduce the probability of synchronization errors to a minimum."
"Oh? That's a good idea … Yes! We can also apply this idea to the magic network communication. This may be able to solve the problem of signal misalignment in remote areas … "
Once the technical staff entered the technical discussion, it was as if they had changed into another person. Even Pitman began to seriously discuss various experimental plans with Kamel. Amber, who was watching the fun, fell into a daze when the topic suddenly turned to the technical level. She was stunned as she listened to the little old man and Pitman's discussion. After a long time, she could not help but poke Rebecca's arm. "What are they talking about? Can you understand?"
Rebecca thought for a moment and said matter-of-factly, "Of course."
Amber was speechless.
A huge sense of frustration shrouded Amber's heart. Gwen noticed the change in expression of the Shame of All Things and deeply understood. He guessed that Amber's mood at the moment was probably the same as when she suddenly found out that the guy in class who failed math with her was actually a Polymath. The technology itself is in my plan. "
"It's in your plan?" Heti was taken aback again. Then she noticed Gwen's half-smile. She pondered. "Do you … have any plans?"
"I do." Gwen nodded gently and said something that shocked everyone present. "I'm going to help Typhon … to help them enter the era of the magical engineering industry, and it's a great help."
Others could not see it, but Gwen himself knew that the magical engineering industry in the Southern Territory was actually forcibly started by him. Relying on the experience of his previous life, relying on the huge materials in the mountain treasury, relying on the situation after the disaster, and the ready-made technology accumulation in this world, he directly skipped many of the gradual processes that required time to accumulate, and lit up the technological line of the magical engineering industry by leaps and bounds. His development method could greatly reduce time (because of skipping a lot of trial and error and pathfinding), but it had the hidden dangers of a weak foundation and over-reliance on "strongman politics". The time saved in the early stage would eventually have to be paid in the process of making up for these hidden dangers.
And Typhon … it had completed the normal accumulation.
Even if Emperor Rosetta might take a lot of detours, and even if the people of Typhon had to stumble a lot in the process of trial and error, this empire that had completed the normal accumulation would quickly crush Cecil after entering the industrial era.
There was no other reason, there were more people, more land, and more food …
Under the push of the general trend, Typhon's magical engineering industry was unstoppable. They already knew about Cecil's magic net, and there were constantly new technological breakthroughs in their country. They had greatly increased their food production, and their education and system were constantly developing. Under such circumstances, even if Gwen did not arrange for Daniel, there would be other scholars of Typhon who would figure out the secrets of the magic net and create their own magical engineering machines. So, since there was no stopping it, it was better to give it a push.
"Heti, do you still remember the things I asked you to do?" Gwen looked at his great-granddaughter. "About the production history of our factories, the operation of the Production Co-ordination Committee, the investment of the progressive merchants and the new nobles …"
"Yes," Heti replied. "And it's being done every month."
Gwen nodded in satisfaction. "Very good, I need this data, and I need more …"
Next, he wanted to give Typhon a big gift.
This was a gift even sweeter than the Weave.
