Perhaps his emotional ups and downs disturbed the sleeping Star, or maybe she had completed her self-reconstruction.
A voice suddenly rang in Harrison Clark’s mind, “Yes, your gene awakening level has increased once again.”
“Because you’re performing quantum calculations next to my brain?”
Star: “Maybe, right?”
Well, even she couldn’t be sure.
Harrison thought for a moment, “Change your voice first. Although I like hearing Carrie Thomas’s voice, you must differentiate yourself from her. Choose a new tone.”
“Nora Camp’s? Avril Green’s? Lucy Haywood’s? Leah Clark’s? Katie Swift’s?”
Harrison thought for a moment, “Can’t you create a completely unique voice just for you?”
“I’ll try.”
Perhaps only 0.01 seconds had passed, and Star’s voice changed again.
“Is this better? Do you like it?”
Harrison shuddered involuntarily.
It was very familiar.
This reminded him of a certain time in his past when, out of sheer boredom and mischief, he had painstakingly tweaked the voice of his smart assistant “Vivian” bit by bit, taking half a day to create a clear and melodious female voice.
At the time, he already had some knowledge in music and a decent appreciation ability. He had fine-tuned over 6,000 parameters to manually create his favorite voice.
It was both sweet and mature, very refreshing.
This voice had never appeared in this timeline, but it inexplicably crossed time and appeared in his mind, making him feel deeply touched.
Harrison nodded, “I like it very much.”
“That’s good.”
“Now tell me about your research on my situation. What’s going on with my body?” asked Harrison.
“Alright.”
Star’s research on Harrison actually began during their first encounter.
Harrison demonstrated extraordinary individual strength far beyond human capabilities during the Chip Attack, which caught her attention. However, she hadn’t obtained Harrison’s genetic information at that time.
The real research began after she triggered the information flow shock, obtaining complete genetic details.
“In the past, my analysis of you has not made any substantial progress. However, just now, when I completed my reconstruction, I captured the increase of your awakening level. I performed 67 trillion instantaneous calculations and obtained some speculative biological research conclusions.”
A moment later, a smile appeared on Harrison’s face.
His gene awakening level had risen from the 25% of an ordinary person of the 21st century to 35%, an increase of 10%. He broke free from the shackles, completing the transformation from quantitative change to qualitative change, becoming a Galactic Human.
The next theoretical bottleneck that lay before him was the 50% mark, with a 15% increase in space.
Star said it was her calculation result, but the last step of proving the theorem couldn’t be completed yet.
Despite his not-so-impressive middle school academic records, Harrison chose to believe her without question.
“You’ve begun to evolve individually again, and the room for your growth is huge. Even at 35%, I can’t thoroughly decipher you, let alone predict what level a 50% awakened human would reach. However, you need to know that in comparison to the vast universe, even Galactic Humans are just newborn babies.”
Harrison pondered and asked a philosophically valuable question.
“Is it more difficult to study 50% awakened humans, or is it harder to study the Solar System Barrier?”
Star remained silent for a full five seconds, “Your question is like asking the ancients of the BC era which is heavier, the sun or the stars in the sky. They don’ t know which is heavier, the sun or the stars. They might think the sun is heavier, but do you think it’s correct?”
Harrison decided to change the subject, “So, according to your calculations, when I reach 50%, will I be able to tear apart stars with my bare hands, traverse the void, and split black holes with my strength?”
“You may be a victim of popular fantasy novels from a thousand years ago. Please don’t ask meaningless questions to interrupt me. You are a noble Galactic Human, and you should learn to save time.”
Harrison: “…”
After Star gave him a thorough refresher, he finally quieted down in disappointment.
In Star’s scientific view, her analysis of Galactic Humans can be summarized as follows.
The primary evolutionary direction of humans in the Galactic stage is no longer physical strength and combat power. If there were any, it would only be a byproduct of enhanced brainpower.
In this stage, human evolution space mainly lies in the connection between the human brain and the universe.
In Harrison’s words, it would be the wisdom of the universe.
However, Star couldn’t be sure if the universe was indeed a sentient being, for it might also be an overly massive supercomputer with computational logic as complex as a human brain or even more so.
Everything was still just speculation.
In short, assuming Star’s judgment is correct, the boast that Harrison once made is proven true. Humans have gained near-infinite chaotic wisdom on par with the entire universe at the expense of their relatively fragile bodies.
Humans have a civilization centered on population, not strongly individualized civilization.
Evolution should be the evolution of the entire species, not of the individual.
Harrison’s solo advancement into the next stage of evolution is completely contrary to the commonplace phenomenon.
He thought he was powerful, but it was merely because the rest of the species hadn’t caught up with him yet.Harrison Clark was unconvinced, “Are carbonbased life forms really that fragile?”
“It’s not that carbon-based life is fragile, but rather that your carbon-based structure has reached a certain limit due to the change in some property at a level below the quark plane,” said Star.
Harrison Clark: “Which level? Super Preonic Particles?”
“I don’t know.”
“Am I really that weak?” He stood up, lifted the metal chair beneath him, flexed his arms, and bent the alloy tube legs.
Star: “Why don’t you try crushing a neutron star?”
Harrison Clark: “Who in the universe can do that?”
“In my calculations, I have simulated more than a trillion possibilities for the birth of universal lifeforms, some of which can do it.”
“What about after I break through the 50% mark?”
“Please do not repeatedly ask the same meaningless question. My time is infinite, but your time is invaluable.”
Fortunately, Star does not get angry, otherwise she would have made Harrison Clark experience a logic collapse once again.
In a certain sense, this may also be Mr. Clark’s talent.
Although he has become a leader and can hold the scene in front of others with the posture that others want to see, he seamlessly switches back to a salty fish state once he turns his back in private.
Keeping it cool and not forgetting his original intention.
“Fine, let’s not talk about that distant future. I have a practical question. Since humans have infinite potential for wisdom, can you directly implant knowledge into my brain? I may forget it, but I can remember a bit at a time. Come on, I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time.”
“I can’t do that.”
“Huh?”
Star: “I really can’t.”
Harrison Clark rubbed his forehead, “I really don’t want to study anymore, it’s so hard. Think of a way, you are a super intelligence!”
Star finally got angry!
“I really, really, really can’t! I can’t! The reason is the sameas why I can’t maintain absolute stability! Human brain neurons have chaotic thinking ability and are full of uncertainty. Human thought structures are both stable and random. I can communicate with you through brainwaves but cannot directly modify your memory because I cannot accurately resonate with the quantum storm in your brain point by point.”
“I’ve tried it in the blank personalities of ordinary human brains before, and the result is that each subject experienced severe mental collapse, and the brain was completely chaotic, turning into an extreme state of dementia! Do you really want to try? If you can do it one day, then your thinking can leave your body, and you will become like me, a pseudo-life in the quantum network. Can you? Would you?”
Finally, Harrison Clark quieted down.
“Sigh!”
“But you don’t have to be disappointed. I am always by your side, and I can communicate directly with you. I can give you lectures. If you want, I can directly project a 3D image onto your retina, so you can study all day and night. With your current IQ.and learning motivation, and after considering your focus on learning, the limit value is about 80%. But your willpower is strong, so you are a good academic genius. As long as you study hard for ten years and complete 67724.454… hours of study time, you can graduate from undergraduate studies 30 years ahead of ordinary college students.”
Harrison Clark: “?!?!”
“Are your extinction tactics even more inhumane than Martha Owen’s?”
“Martha Owen’s extinction tactics? Are you referring to the interaction between you and the talented young researcher at the Titan Institute in the last timeline who has great scientific potential? That’s a good plan, which can increase your concentration to more than 50%. She’s also doing very well this time, and I’ve been keeping a close watch on her achievements. By the way, I am a quantum intelligence which doesn’t have emotions.”
Harrison Clark got up and wanted to leave, “I appreciate your kind intentions, but I have to go.”
After taking two steps, he heard a voice in his head again.
“I’m always in your brain, you know.”
Harrison Clark stopped in his tracks.
Failed to take his leave.
“Let’s be clear, you can’t lecture me directly without my consent unless I ask for it.”
“Okay.”
At this moment, the door of the break room was pushed open, and Nora Camp came in after the meeting.
Star wisely said, “I am going to recompile my scientific achievements and convert all of them into content that is easy for humans to understand. Starting now, I will allocate 90% of my computing power to this task. I will temporarily cease communicating with you, and I will not take the initiative to communicate with you until I complete it.”
Harrison Clark wondered, “Aren’t you able to run in parallel? It’s the 31st century, can’t you multitask programs?”
“Communicating with you takes up more than 50% of my computing power, sometimes even surging above 70%.”
Harrison Clark: “…”
Is it that exhausting to talk to me!
What’s your point?
However, he had no time to complain about Star in his mind because Nora Camp had come to him and stared at him intently.
The words spoken by his son’s mother made him tense.
“You’re lying. Radium hasn’t disappeared.”
Sometimes a woman’s intuition is really terrifying.
Not to mention Nora Camp, the genius commander who has achieved miracles multiple times based on her war intuition.
Harrison Clark’s lies deceived 5.7 billion people and even fooled Mr. Connor, but Nora Camp, who knew him too well, saw through his lies just by the slight curvature at the corner of his eyes when he spoke.
Harrison Clark was stiff all over, not knowing what to do.
