Chapter 7: The Makar Civilisation

  At 5 o'clock in the morning, Duan Yue regained consciousness, but he didn't wake up immediately. Instead, he began a bizarre conversation with the intelligent creature that appeared in his mind.

  All along, although humans have always believed that under this starry sky, humans are not the only intelligent life, but they have never found a species that can communicate with humans on an equal footing. Sometimes, humans can't help but feel a little pessimistic, perhaps humans on earth are lonely existences.

  Similarly, even if the development speed of computers is changing with each passing day, it is still far from the emergence of artificial intelligence, and humans cannot determine when so-called artificial intelligence can emerge.

  However, these two situations that have been considered unlikely by humans for a long time both happened to Duan Lei. A self-proclaimed intelligent brain from the Makar civilization actually inhabited Duan Lei's mind in an unimaginable way.

  At first, Duan Yue thought he was hallucinating from a concussion after being hit by the board brick, but after a logical conversation with the biological wisdom brain, Duan Yue quickly accepted reality.

  After all, as a 21st-century college student, Duan Yue had not infrequently browsed the internet on his computer in the mountains, and stories of transmigration and rebirth were too numerous to count. How could a small biological intelligence possibly make him feel too panicked?

  Duan Yue's behavior was normal, and outsiders were all celebrating Duan Yue waking up from his coma, completely unaware that a biological intelligent brain had appeared in Duan Yue's mind.

  After Tang Lier and Zhao Lin left, Duan Lei also drove Da Shan and several others to class. He still had many questions he wanted to ask Zhi Nao, the fewer people the better.

  "Master, how can you remain so calm about my existence?" As soon as he realized that the hospital room was empty, Zhi Nao's voice immediately echoed in Duan Yue's mind.

  Closing her eyes, Duan Yue could discover that in her consciousness there was a small elf-like creature dancing like in a magical world, the small bells on her body continuously making pleasant sounds.

  "Hehe, anyway, you can search my memory, just browse what I've seen before and you'll know the reason." Duan Lei didn't open his mouth, he just thought silently with his mind, and his voice echoed in his consciousness.

  This skill was only acquired by Duan Yue after being possessed by Zhi Nao, and under Zhi Nao's guidance. Otherwise, how could an ordinary person perceive their own sea of consciousness?

  "Hehe... Your imagination is really rich, you carbon-based humans!" Quickly browsing through the fragments of Duans memory, Zhi Brain laughed and said: "In our Makai civilization, there is no such profession as a network writer."

  "Ding ding, what kind of entertainment do people usually have in your Makka civilization?" Duanyue was a bit curious, and wondered what the difference was between the Makka civilization and Earth's civilization.

  This little creature looked very cute and had a ringing bell on its body, so Duan Lei called it 'Ding Ding'.

  "We Makans are facing a very harsh survival environment, every Makan adult spends most of their time fighting or doing war-related work after growing up, basically there is no entertainment activity at all. Everything in the Makan civilization is for survival!" The sound of "ding" also became low and said: "I don't know which plane your Earth is on now, I'm afraid you can't go back."

  Duan Yue didn't know what else to say either and fell silent for a moment.

  "Ding Ding, how did you end up possessing me?" asked Duan Lei, breaking the silence after a while.

  "I remember that I was once the core brain of a research spaceship, and during an adventure, we encountered a cosmic storm. The ship was destroyed, and I somehow ended up on Earth...". The beeping sound slowed down slightly, as if recalling something from long ago, saying: "My original host was a silver metal block, and after hitting your head last night, the program automatically started."

  It wasn't until then that Duan Yue understood that Dingding was a result of the brick being smashed out last night.

  "Ding ding, living in my mind, what's the benefit for me?" Duan Yue thought for a moment and excitedly asked: "Is it going to be like that, teaching me a bunch of martial arts secrets, or giving me a divine weapon to make me an inside-out Superman?"

  I used to read a web novel, called something like "Doctor", the protagonist got a super medical care system and became an almost omnipotent super doctor; there were also some where the protagonist got so-called dimensional trading systems and became dimensional merchants and so on, all very magical. Now I have a brain implant too, it shouldn't be too bad, right?

  "I'm afraid I may not be able to help you much now, being able to communicate with you is already the best situation for me." Feeling Duan Yue's excitement, thinking of his own situation, Ding Ding felt a bit embarrassed and said: "When resisting the cosmic storm, the energy on my main body was completely consumed. I don't have any way to open the database, nor do I know how much useful data is left inside."

  "Oh!" Upon hearing this, Duan Yue felt somewhat disappointed, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said: "Now that you're here to keep me company, it's not so bad after all."

  Duan Yue had always been easy-going, and the sudden appearance of Dingding was already an unexpected delight. Even if there were no other functions, he wouldn't be too disappointed. Just now, he was just asking casually according to some conventions on the internet.

  "Huh, no way!" Suddenly, Duan Lei reacted and said: "You mean to say that there is currently no way to open the database, which means that in the future when we have enough energy, we can open the database?"

  "Hehe... Your reaction is quite quick, master! *giggles*..." Tingting looked at Duan Yue and understood, excitedly flying around in the air, saying: "As long as I have enough energy, I can open and repair the database, and combine it with the situation on Earth to help you find some useful technologies."

  "Energy?" Duanyan's eyebrows furrowed, asking: "Dingding, do you need oil, coal or electricity? Or is it some other form of energy?"

  With Duan Yu's understanding, he naturally didn't know what kind of energy Ding Ding needed to supplement in his mind.

  "In our Maca civilization, we basically use bio-energy and crystal energy to supplement the energy of the intelligent brain." Ding Ding thought for a moment and said: "Bio-energy is similar to what is currently being input into your body, which can be converted into energy in the biological body and then used by me. As for crystal energy, I have not been able to retrieve any relevant information from your memory yet."

  "Is it biological energy? Glucose?" Duan Yue suddenly understood and said: "Then I'll supplement more energy in the future, and you can recover!"

  "Hehe, the energy you can convert in your body is really too little. At your current rate of energy supply, it would take ten years to open the first layer of the data library!" Dīngdīng didn't know what tact was and directly poured a bucket of cold water on Duàn Lèi.

  "What's the point of that?" Duan Yue was stunned, ten years? By then, Huang Hua Cai would have gone cold, what use would it be?

  "Take it easy, maybe later we'll run into some energy-providing crystals and everything will be solved!" Seemingly thinking that her previous words were too direct, Dīng dīng stuck out her little tongue to comfort Duàn Yuè.

  Nowadays, apart from accepting a biological brain that can only accompany itself in speaking, what better way does Duan Yue have?
