Chapter 292: Chapter 239: Neuro-Mechanical Technology

"Xuanwu Army, Soldier Qiao Feiyu of the 313th Battalion of the Army, reporting to Commander He!" This is the language synthesized from the computer reading his brain information.

He Xingzhou saluted him and said: "Comrade Qiao Feiyu, thank you for your dedication to the country!"

Qiao Feiyu continued to speak through the computer: "Commander He, I did not expect to have the chance to meet you! I participated in the defense of Shanghai and later joined the ocean war."

"During the cleanup of the Zerg, I got poisoned and have become incapacitated."

He Xingzhou said: "You are a hero, not incapacitated!"

"Rest assured, we will get you back on your feet!"

Qiao Feiyu asked: "Commander He, do I still have a chance to stand up?"

He Xingzhou nodded and said: "You are already able to converse with me through a computer. We will create more compact neuro-mechanical and mechanical prostheses! Then, you can stand up again using the prostheses."

Upon hearing He Xingzhou’s words, Qiao Feiyu was extremely excited inside, but he couldn’t show it. He could only continue to speak through the computer: "Commander He, I am willing to make my last contribution to the country’s scientific research with this broken body. Please feel free to experiment on me!"

He Xingzhou stayed here to continue researching Neuro-Mechanical Technology.

Two months have passed, and the Blue Star Alliance has occupied the territories of several previous insect kings, establishing new safe zones.

Meanwhile, the annexation by insect kings around the world has accelerated several times!

The ten major insect kings have essentially hunted down or annexed weaker insect kings. Some insect kings are extremely bloodthirsty and want to kill all other insect kings except themselves, such as the Nile Insect King and the Mana Insect King; others recruit extensively, like the Ola Insect King, and many lower-level insect kings seek refuge with it to save their lives, expanding its influence rapidly.

As their influence expands, the call to erase human civilization grows louder across the Blue Star Insect Clan’s information network.

During this period, the manufacturing of Space Air Mother Ships and giant mecha has never ceased.

...

In the Neuro-Mechanical Research Institute, He Xingzhou was using mechanical arms to operate a miniature Quantum Computer.

This Quantum Computer is about the size of a human’s small fingernail, possessing super-strong computing power along with a tiny nuclear battery.

Its power supply to the Quantum Computer is sufficient for over five hundred years of use!

These are easy to achieve.

The most challenging part lies in the neural connector, which must connect to the human brain’s neural network and convert biochemical information into electrical signals and vice versa.

The neural connector is also called a neural prosthesis! It includes sensory neural prosthesis, motor neural prosthesis, cognitive neural prosthesis, and memory neural prosthesis.

Basic neural prostheses include artificial cochlea and electronic tongues.

He Xingzhou’s goal is to create a prosthetic brain that combines the functions of four types of neural prostheses, essentially a second human brain, to assist with thinking, memory, calculation, and mechanical control.

"Consume 5 million energy units to unlock sensory neural prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Consume 2 million energy units to unlock motor neural prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Consume 4 million energy units to unlock cognitive neural prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"Consume 2 million energy units to unlock memory neural prosthesis manufacturing technology."

"The four types of neural prostheses will be manufactured separately first, then a combined quantum brain will be created!" He Xingzhou thought while he started designing neural prostheses on the computer.

The Quantum Light Computer reminded: "If you develop the quantum brain, you can spend ten million energy units to unlock the Quantum Light Computer’s brain assistant function."

"Brain assistant features include information storage, reading, electric signal perception, calculation, and more."

He Xingzhou said: "The Quantum Light Computer itself is the most advanced second brain, isn’t it? I’ve already used information storage, reading functions, and calculation abilities before, right?"

He Xingzhou had long considered that his memory ability, information digestion speed, and thinking calculation speed surpass ordinary humans countless times, even beyond what a Quantum Computer might accomplish.

But inexplicably, he managed it, which must be the reason for the Quantum Light Computer.

The Quantum Light Computer responded: "Yes, this time it’s an advanced ability, allowing you to connect electromagnetic signals directly to control mechanical devices."

"What about biological chips and gene modification?" He Xingzhou asked.

The Quantum Light Computer responded: "When you acquire the corresponding technology, the Quantum Light Computer can directly perform the corresponding modifications, eliminating the need for human and gene modification again."

"You’re finally showing the proper capabilities of a hack!" He Xingzhou remarked.

With He Xingzhou’s involvement, the development of neural prosthesis technology has advanced rapidly. Every few days, they achieve a new neural prosthesis.

Another month passed, and the lab had already connected four types of miniature neural prostheses to a Quantum Computer, creating an artificial brain!

...

Xuanwu Base, Xuanwu Military Hospital.

Here, a large number of soldiers who are injured or ill reside, including some medical staff and researchers.

Human medical technology has developed rapidly, with problems like cancer, limb deficiency, or organ replacement no longer being medical challenges.

New medical challenges stem from the Zerg’s biological toxins and gene viruses.

These problems torment people, some causing paralysis, others leading to neural atrophy, turning them into vegetative states, and some even causing mutations into Insect Men!
