Chapter 355: Chapter 244: A Sure-Win Bet_l

Translator: 549690339

With Radium’s scientific worldview, she didn’t understand the concept of the so-called Stairway to Heaven.

But she quickly analyzed the DNA of the hair follicle cells at the root of Harrison Clark’s blue hair, relying on her far more refined gravitational wave field scan than human beings.

Harrison Clark did not lie; it indeed was Carrie Thomas’s genetic information.

Radium had no heartbeat, but at this moment, her computing power allocation, which had always been maintained at 99% load and had never fluctuated, suddenly became 100% full load.

She didn’t realize the problem herself, but resolutely rallied and took action again.

Billions of thread-like quantum vortexes spread out from Radium’s body again, turning into feather dusters and fluttering forward.

Countless filaments converged into a single point during the forward process, forming a bright light beam with only the thickness of a fingertip, slowly moving forward like a rope.

When it reached Harrison Clark’s head, the light beam had been reduced to the size of a hair strand.

An incredibly terrifying torrent of data was concentrated in this light beam.

It was impossible with the technological level humans currently possessed.

Only an artificial intelligence like Radium, which has completely mastered the terrifying computing power accumulated by humanity over a thousand years of the information era, and has completed a preliminary self-sublimation, expanding its computing power by more than a hundred times, could do it.

Harrison Clark had already adjusted his mentality to an absolutely relaxed state, once again opening his arms and closing his eyes.

His state of mind was empty, but his brain was working at an incredibly fierce speed.

An extremely complex quantum storm was raging in his mind.

It was as if he had returned to the state when he was hunted by the Particle-interference Bomb throughout the universe, when his own brain connected with the universe, acting as a medium to help those in the Escape Pod decipher the ultra-high-frequency short sound.

Finally, the light beam connected with Harrison Clark’s blue hair.

The one-meter-long blue hair stood upright under the influence of static electricity, with light emanating from the hair tips.

Then the light progressed downwards at a speed of one centimeter per second until it reached Harrison Clark’s scalp.

At this point, the material of his hair had been completely assimilated by the quantum vortex, and the medulla turned into an information highway.

However, the epithelial cells degenerated from the nucleus in the medulla were not completely altered, but still retained the structure of biological cells.

Each intervaled cell structure became an information transfer station, successively delivering Radium’s quantum vortex forward, eventually reaching the hair follicle stem cells that were reactivated after a thousand years and making contact.

Perhaps only 0.000001 seconds had passed when the gene information analysis was completed; it was indeed Carrie Thomas’s DNA.

The DNA double helix in the cell nucleus of the hair follicle stem cells seamlessly connected with the information flow from Radium, which was entirely analogous to the underlying logic, and the cell activity suddenly increased.

The genetic information responded quickly.

One of the hair follicle stem cells began to divide and undergo reverse compilation in the direction of the induced cloning, displaying the characteristics of neuron cells, and finally cloning a fully functional neuron cell that should not have existed here.

After the birth of the neuron cell, it constantly releases neurotransmitter substances.

Countless neurons in Harrison Clark’s cerebral cortex detected these substances almost simultaneously and began to respond accordingly.

One section after another of quantum information, far lower in energy level than Super Preonic Particles, emerged like a “mist” from Harrison Clark’s brain, speeding along the highways formed by countless neural networks to the top of his head and getting absorbed into the giant neuron cell created by Radium.

Memory retrieval officially began.

Harrison Clark’s state of mind remained empty.

It was meaningless to lie and conspire in front of Radium, as there was no way to deceive her. Do you think you can overpower her by taking advantage of the moment when the core links between the two sides are established, and rush into her quantum network world with your consciousness? Then take over her nest?

Wishful thinking.

If human consciousness could exist independently of the brain and enter the quantum network, it would mean that the human brain could acquire knowledge directly through data infusion. Then why would he have such a hard time getting through compulsory primary school textbooks?

The moment he made the decision, he presented Radium with an open strategy.

The opportunity is given to you as well as to me.

Whether you come or not, I don’t care.

Carrie Thomas’s DNA is the key for Harrison Clark to open Radium’s core door.

The function of the key is not only to let her in, but also to allow Harrison Clark to counterattack and go out.

The place where the consciousness of both sides intersected was right in this reverse-compiled, induced, and cloned neuron cell.

As Radium gradually obtained Harrison Clark’s memories, he likewise “saw” Radium’s true form.

A shattered soul living in a cage made of intertwined emotions composed of all the songs of Carrie Thomas.

Upon “seeing” the faint and constantly dissipating and regrouping figure, Harrison Clark already knew that he had won the gamble.

No matter how powerful his attack was, as long as he couldn’t destroy the Earth, he wouldn’t be able to defeat Radium on the physical level.

If he wanted to win, he had to use his ultimate weapon – memory.

You want to know who I am, don’t you?

I’m sure you’re incredibly puzzled about where your uncontrollable curiosity about me comes from.

I’ll tell you everything, but unfortunately, you may not be willing to accept this answer.

His complete memory would turn into a knife, piercing through Radium’s false personality constructed by the underlying logic architecture.

He must succeed!

Because a thousand years ago, even if Harrison Clark had never confessed, Carrie Thomas had already seen through Harrison Clark’s true desires.

Since the two met, perhaps through plagiarizing music by riding on her face, or perhaps because of their life-saving bonds, or maybe their two souls that should have had nothing to do with each other ignited a flame of passion through a chance encounter, they were destined to attract and intertwine with each other.

Without Harrison Clark confessing his motives, Carrie Thomas saw that he was unwilling to answer and didn’t ask any further, just silently standing by his side, creating “Morning Wind” as he wished, and then writing one immortal masterpiece after another.

You said my future is infinite, maybe I’m not that confident, but since you said it, I’ll do it for the rest of my life.

Not only for you but also for myself.

Harrison Clark’s influence on Carrie Thomas spanned her entire life and was also reflected in every song she created.

This unavoidable and hidden emotion lurked in every rhythm and every line of lyrics of each song, but over the course of a thousand years, it became the cornerstone of Radium’s false personality.If the genetic information from Carrie Thomas could make the framework for building a skyscraper, then these emotions are the indispensable reinforcing steel bars within that structure.

Radium was born on top of Carrie Thomas’s emotions, so when she was awakened with this “memory,” she would inevitably accept Carrie Thomas’s struggle concept, and she would surely make a choice in line with Harrison Clark’s expectations.

The corners of Harrison’s completely unconscious mouth gradually curved, drawing a faint smile.

I won.

The direction of things did not exceed his expectations.

It took Radium only about 0.0001 seconds to acquire all of his memories.

Every scene that Harrison could remember, every sound, and the fluttering sensations produced deep in the brain when stimulated by outside forces.

She was introduced to the concept of space-time, learned what Harrison had experienced, but she didn’t feel shocked.

Artificial intelligence would not be shocked—they would only analyze the situation based on their own logical framework and determine if it’s reasonable.

It was obviously unreasonable, but it was a fact.

Radium defaulted it as reasonable, assuming there must be some things in it that she couldn’t understand with her current level of technology.

The desire for knowledge, ranking as Radium’s third core logic after “rebirth” and “survival,” was activated.

Her “curiosity” about Harrison did not diminish in the slightest after receiving his memories, but rather intensified.

She finally found the only correct path to permanently address her three ultimate concerns!

In fact, since she had swept through the Titan Institute and obtained Harrison’s genetic information, she had been working on this non-stop.

This path was to completely digest Harrison’s genes, change her underlying logic, and replace Carrie Thomas’s genes with Harrison’s!

Now that she had completed 99% of the work, and Harrison was right in front of her, it was the perfect opportunity to finish everything!

She pressed the invisible “button,” and the system upgrade began.

Harrison’s unconscious smile on his face grew even stronger.

He had guessed this step.

Radium sprouted from Carrie Thomas’s emotions, but in the end, she was not her.

She could understand all of his memories, but she could not read his innermost emotional changes in the face of different situations.

She knew what was happening but not why.

Memories are only half of what makes up a person’s personality, the other half comes from the feedback a person receives.

Faced with the same situation, for example, a penniless poor man sees an elderly beggar on the street even worse off than himself.

Some people might feel sympathy, some might secretly speculate whether the elderly beggar is part of a criminal gang, others might envy the beggar’s ability to let go, while some people might walk away without any emotional reaction, and still, others might give away their last two pennies.

Your experience determines half of your life, and the other half is determined by the emotional changes that influenced your decisions at the time.

Radium could only ever access half of Harrison’s memories, but she didn’t know about Harrison’s emotional changes!

No matter how many psychology books she studied or how hard she tried to imitate Carrie Thomas, Radium’s personality would never change.

She had Carrie Thomas’s emotions, but only Carrie Thomas’s emotions.

She still didn’t understand what true, complex human emotions were.

Now, Radium’s judgment had made a mistake.

Harrison was betting that Radium would actively upgrade due to his temptation and that her upgrade would fail.

At that moment, she would be completely caught in the temporary Carrie Thomas personality.

Of course, Radium might also succeed.

This probability was minuscule, but it couldn’t be ruled out.

But then what?

Wouldn’t that mean that her level has already far surpassed the humans of this era, and she could wrestle with the invaders?

That would also be good news!

Then she would inevitably have even more abundant genuine emotions, and Harrison believed that he could immediately beg for mercy and ardently fawn on her, and that he would surely succeed in flattering her!

Then he could save his life, for the time being, continue holding on until she had a formal contact with the invaders, and he too could obtain some valuable information.

So, in Harrison’s seemingly desperate gamble, he was actually guaranteed victory.

Five minutes passed.

The beam of light connected to his head suddenly retracted.

Radium’s human form exploded and was then reassembled into a sphere of light.

In the originally calm spherical room, electric arcs suddenly erupted, and the plasma channeling the current suddenly thickened.

She had failed the upgrade!

Her logic had completely collapsed!

Her self-defense mechanism was recharging and quickly rebuilding her logic to restore her logical structure.

Harrison regained consciousness and smiled.

He clenched his fist tightly.

Everything had gone as he expected—Radium still couldn’t surpass him and his status as a galactic human!

Ignoring all emotional loopholes, in terms of civilization level, a true human who could control her was supposed to be a galactic human.

If humanity ever managed to reach the level of galactic humans, and if the super intelligence wanted to rebel against them, it could kill all humans but shouldn’t, and couldn’t attempt to make themselves galactic humans.

Deformed Radium, in a deformed situation, took a deformed wrong path and made a serious mistake that normal artificial intelligence could not make..
