Technological Masterpiece

 After Zhang Yuan completed the data analysis, he sent reports one after another to outside researchers. These young doctors were simply shocked because the other party would send out a report almost every ten minutes!

 The speed at which they read these reports and test the results is actually not as fast as others' production speed. What's the point of their work? The other party can do all the data analysis alone!

 "It's really unbelievable. Have you seen it? With research output at this speed, there will be no gaps in the process, no boredom, and no fatigue... This is a miracle!"

 "If nothing happens, please don't disturb Professor Zhang. Just record everything you observe."

 These young doctors are all observing with interest the most high-end "technological masterpiece" in the history of new human civilization.

 "No wonder those professors are so fanatical..."

 "Actually, I'm kind of like this... even if it means abandoning some of humanity's current desires."

 "I want, too!"

 "I...I have to think about it."

 The young doctor was very conflicted because he was in a sweet love relationship and liked his partner very much.

 He was a little afraid that after the transformation, he would suddenly lose his desire in this regard and not like the other person anymore.

 This kind of dislike actually has a certain probability, because the love mechanism of NT New Humanity is more inclined to resonance at the ideological level rather than physical attraction. Of course, he can also set up some corresponding thinking modules to produce a certain degree of physical desire... but it is always a bit awkward from a psychological perspective.

 "Dr. Ding, what are you thinking about? Are you giving up on transformation because of your new girlfriend? This is picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon. The number of places for transformation in a year is only double digits."

 "I can understand, I can understand, Dr. Ding may not be able to defeat his instinctive physiological desires."

 "My girlfriend is so beautiful, I shouldn't give up."

 Several colleagues made a joke, which made the young doctor's face turn red and he didn't know how to refute.

 At this moment, a message suddenly popped up on the screen. The attention of these staff members was quickly drawn to another place.

 After a while, after discussion, a worker typed: "Professor Zhang, I would like to excuse you. The other eight experimenters have woken up one after another, and their condition is not as good as yours... At present It is in a state of thinking at 3 times the speed, but a series of risks have emerged, so we have no further experiments."

 "Do you have any good suggestions for this?"

 "Is it possible to do data analysis on this."

 Zhang Yuan stopped what he was doing and was certainly not happy to be interrupted.

 He believes that he should complete the parallel multi-process work as soon as possible so that he will not be interrupted rashly.

 He also recorded that he was "not very happy". Any emotional fluctuations are a good reference for humans.

 Zhang Yuan typed a string of text: "What went wrong?"

 "One experimenter had excessive mood swings; several others developed autistic tendencies and refused to communicate. There was also an experimenter who, for some unknown reason, had an analysis that occurred when his thinking speed reached twice that of ordinary people."

 "Send the data over and I'll handle the anomalies. Anyway, it's idle. I hope they can recover as soon as possible."

 Zhang Yuan frowned and kept thinking in his mind.

 This situation was expected. Before the experiment, Zhang Yuan's modification method was designed by himself, while the other experimenters could only design it on their behalf.

 Due to differences in personal memory and personality modules, there are always some subtle differences. Therefore, Zhang Yuan can currently accelerate to 200 times, while the others can only reach 3 times the level.

 The female doctor sent the information over with a complicated expression. As a newly graduated doctor, she had only started this job for a few months, so she was a little scared and a little bit ambitious about this unknown state.

 After about half an hour, a large amount of dense data flow appeared on the screen, and the speed was so fast. These were the data output by Professor Zhang. At least three hundred assistants were needed to keep up with this speed.

 "This is the future shape of our humanity, hahaha! It is estimated that these problems can be solved in one night. In the past, it might have taken several months!"

 A young expert next to him fell into fanatic mode again.

 "But...will the public really accept it?" The girl asked: "From a philosophical point of view, is Professor Zhang in the past...dead?"

 She looked back at the hibernation chamber. What was frozen inside was Zhang Yuan's body. After losing his self-awareness, he had become a vegetative state.

 The new Zhang Yuan has been uploaded to the computer, realizing the first step of thinking transformation.

 The difference between the past and the present is so huge. No matter how smart Zhang Yuan was in the past, there was no qualitative change and he was still in the category of human beings, but now... she really felt that he had completely exceeded that limit. Regular humans can never catch up.

 "Don't worry about it so much! Maybe you didn't get any sleep and you died once in the past?"

 "It's not necessary for everyone to accept it. We have an alliance, right? It's actually acceptable to have one more species..."

 The supporter whispered: "Those who do not accept this kind of transformation will continue to be traditional humans, and those who accept it will become NT new humans. If we want to make a qualitative change, we need to abandon some of the population..."

 "Do you think it's possible for everyone to accept change? There are 1 billion people."

 The girl understood what her colleague meant. The alliance is still the same as before, but in the future, humanity may split into two...

 All in all, humans in the past and humans in the future can still coexist.

 But for some reason, she couldn't help but shudder... Was this a concern for a more powerful species, or... the fear instinct that humans have when facing a higher-order creature?

 Is the meaning of human existence really to create a more powerful species?

 I don't know, now that I have taken this step, no matter what, I still have to move forward. No matter whether I am confused or anxious, I have to keep moving forward. It is impossible to go back.

 maybe...

 After thinking for a long time, she couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only continue the work at hand.

 One night passed quickly...

 When Yamamoto Ichiro and other scientific research experts returned to work, they suddenly discovered that Zhang Yuan had completely handled most of the data analysis work, and they only needed to execute these things.

 Of course, due to safety regulations, Zhang Yuan currently only has the authority to organize data and cannot operate the instruments in the laboratory.

 "Haha, Lao Zhang, you really surprised me!"

 "I completed 1,600 hours of work in 8 hours without feeling tired or overworked... This kind of efficiency is so high! You are simply a perfect tool man!"

 "In the past, it might have taken a week to sort it out in the laboratory."

 Yamamoto was naturally enthusiastic about this, and he shook his head resolutely and sighed.

Yes, the mission of mankind ends here.

 "Tool man?" a professor said unceremoniously, "If the experiment is successful, I think the new NT humans should be given more political rights!"

 "Such a brand new species can only lead itself. Why should humans lead the new NT humans? It's like monkeys leading humans. As time goes by, humans will inevitably resist."

 Someone quickly smoothed things over: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about politics for now. This content is very sensitive. We will only talk about science here."

 Yamamoto asked: "How do you feel this night? Several experimenters have great mood swings!"

 "It's not too boring. The work of data collection can bring a small sense of accomplishment. Because it involves unknown knowledge, it makes me feel happy." Zhang Yuan replied: "I didn't seem to realize that I needed to rest in the middle... I think it's time to take a little rest now."

 "By the way, I also wrote some emotional reports in the middle."

 Zhang Yuan stretched out in the virtual world, and then enjoyed a golden spicy chicken and grilled fragrant rice burger. Food is not necessary, but entertainment.

 "The greater sense of accomplishment is to explore and discover more unknown things. If we encounter an unknown civilization, and this civilization is different from what we have encountered before, it may arouse greater interest."
