Low Dimensional Game-Chapter 23 - Sub-Brain Intelligence

Lu Zhiyu looked at the tube of plasma in his hand and felt very hesitant. Even though he had tested this plasma a few times before on lab rats and it had worked every time, the success rate was only close to and not really one hundred percent. Therefore, he was still somewhat anxious to use it on himself.

The tube of plasma he was holding was precisely an evolution plasma, which he named the Sapient Sub-Brain Evolution Plasma. He had added a talent to his existing genes to make himself evolve. Specifically, he wanted to segregate the part of his brain tissues which he was not actively utilizing and develop it into a sub-brain. In addition, he would upload the operation mode of a computer into the sub-brain to improve its computing powers. In this way, he could become as powerful as a computer.

With such a computer-like sub-brain, his ability to learn and his intelligence would be greatly enhanced, which was what Lu Zhiyu wanted at the moment. The sub-brain intelligence would not interfere with the personality and emotions on the main brain. It would be more like adding a chip to his brain. Lu Zhiyu was not interested in superpowers like spewing fire, water, or super strength, and he also felt that such powers would not be very useful to him. Intelligence and the brain is the most powerful weapon to a human after all.

“I have already made it perfect. There’s nothing to fear!” he told himself. Then he took a deep breath and pointed the plasma at his spine. His mind power immediately pinpointed the correct position and injected the evolution plasma into his bone marrows. At once, he felt his entire body grow cold, as if his body was experiencing a chain reaction just like a machine. Under the continuous stimulation of the plasma, his bone marrows started making a whole new set of cells to replace the old ones.

After removing all his clothes, Lu Zhiyu stepped into a pool of nutrient fluids that he had prepared and submerged himself in it. In this way, the fluids would provide him with the large amount of nutrients his body needed to evolve.

Lu Zhiyu only woke up after a long while. Once he opened his eyes, he pushed himself up from the pool, panting heavily. He glanced at the few ant-people around him which had been guarding him. Just like robots, these ant-people would only act according to their given tasks. He stood up, dried his body, and wore his clothes back on. Right then, the ant-people carried over some food and water.

After the starved Lu Zhiyu wolfed down a hearty meal, he began to inspect the changes in his body. He realized that other than the structure of his brain, there were no significant changes to his physical body. His brain seemed to have shrunk a little and also become more vigorous. The main brain was fused together with the new sub-brain, forming a perfect arc. Among the pair, the sub-brain actually had a different color; it looked redder and also seemed to be glittering like a piece of metal.

“Sub-brain activated. Permission to activate visual nerves.” A voice appeared in Lu Zhiyu’s brain.

“Permission granted.”

As soon as he agreed, his vision changed greatly, as if he had just opened up a tab on a computer. The vision from his eyes could also be zoomed in and out freely, just like a camera.

Lu Zhiyu knew that he could now use his eyes like a camera, taking images he saw and storing them in his sub-brain. He felt like his entire world had become much clearer, and his brain was working more smoothly as countless new ideas appeared in his mind. Many things which he could not understand before now became easy problems. Similarly, many things which he could not remember before were now clear in his head!

“Sub-brain, create an archive for all the information,” he ordered, “and classify them accordingly.”

“Order confirmed.”

“Sub-brain, create a section for research plans: New Human Creation Plan and Evolution Plasma Creation Plan. Organize the relevant information and research directions for me!”

“Confirmed. New Human Creation Plan has entered phase two and is thirty-two percent complete. Evolution Plasma Creation Plan has entered phase two and is twenty-one percent complete.”

“Sub-brain, create…”

After giving a few more orders, Lu Zhiyu disconnected from the sub-brain. Only then, he exited from the robotic and superman-like state. Lu Zhiyu felt that his thoughts were as fast as light just now and he was about to turn into a superman.

With the sub-brain, he could solve problems that would usually take an hour or even a day in a minute. He could finish learning what he would normally need a few days in a minute. He could do many things that he was not able to in just a minute!

It was very liberating and appealing, but terrifying at the same time. Under that state, he could no longer be considered as a human. Such a robotic mind would affect his own personality and emotions.

Lu Zhiyu was glad that he had only wanted to create a sub-brain to assist him in his research plans, instead of changing his entire brain. Although they had roughly the same effects, the outcomes would be totally different. He did not want to become a robot, and still wanted to keep his personality and desires!

With the sub-brain, the New Human Creation Plan progressed very quickly. Before this, he had spent a month only to develop 48 types of genetic inserts. Now with the sub-brain, his speed of reading biology and medicine books increased significantly. The advanced books and academic articles he had placed in the library were already all in his mind.

Using the sub-brain, Lu Zhiyu could list out an endless amount of reference materials at once. Then, he could design many possible paths to try. At the moment, countless biological templates and genetic chains were in front of Lu Zhiyu, blinking and changing their positions rapidly. Lu Zhiyu could use these to design various genetic inserts. Finally, by the time the first new human was born, he had already developed thousands of different genetic inserts.

Despite having all these inserts, Lu Zhiyu was not planning on giving any single embryo everything. It would only be normal for different people to have different talents. Therefore, he would distribute the inserts among various embryos. It would suffice to give each person dozens of inserts as it would be enough for them to inherit and activate the talents.

Further, different races should have different talents and skills as well. However, after completing all these, he stopped the New Human Creation Plan, for he had reached his goal for now.

Nevertheless, the successful creation of the embryos, as well as their development, was only the first step. There was still a long way to go until humans could form stable tribes. He spent close to half a year in the dimensional castle, after which he designated the ant-people to carry out the rest of the plan.

The ant-people would take care of the monkeys. After the first generation of humans was born, the ant-people would raise them up in the castle. Of course, Lu Zhiyu would not teach them any knowledge or how to inherit the talents. The humans should develop their own language and civilization. Lu Zhiyu felt that this was the correct progress of a civilization and he should not interfere with it.

Once again, the dimensional door of the castle was connected with the outside world, and Lu Zhiyu fixed the portal in a lush forest. These ant-people would hunt and find food, so there were no problems at all with their survival. All Lu Zhiyu needed to do was to wait patiently!
