A misty morning glow shone through the sycamore leaves outside the window, and the sky in the distance was flushed with a touch of whiteness.

Putting down the pen in his hand, Lu Zhou, who leaned back on the chair, took a deep breath of the air stained with morning dew, and then exhaled all the turbidity in his chest while stretching comfortably.

"That's it!"

All the reference books and literature are done.

Thirty-seven professional books, plus eighty-seven articles, covering the two fields of biology and informatics, including the thirty memory tablets drawn last time and the remaining ones used before, which were basically used up this time.

Regardless of whether or not you can integrate this knowledge, in short, it is all stuffed into your head.

Now that the conditions for judgment have been met, the next step is to use the points to "synthesize" the new knowledge.

The bones crackled and moved his neck, Lu Zhou got up from his chair, hummed a little song and walked to the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out, Xiao Ai, who was flying in mid-air, had already prepared slices of baked bread, milk, and fried eggs for him, and sent them to the table for him with a quadcopter drone.

Because he was in retreat these days, Lu Zhou basically stayed at home and didn't have any need to go out, so there was no trouble for Wang Peng to bring breakfast for him.

Enjoying breakfast quietly at the dining table, it happened to be morning news time, so Lu Zhou casually turned on the TV and tuned to the news channel to take a look.

I don't know if I don't see it, but I really scared him after watching it.

“…… I didn't expect so much to happen this month. After seeing the news from beginning to end, when he learned that it only took half an hour to go from Jinling to Shanghai, he couldn't help but let out a heartfelt emotion in his heart.

It's really a time when it's changing every day.

Obviously, he has only been in retreat for a month, but he has the illusion that he is about to be out of touch with the times.

Shaking his head with a smile, Lu Zhou, who had finished breakfast, took a napkin and wiped his mouth, and then stood up from the chair.

Taking out his mobile phone from his pocket, he called Wang Peng.

The phone rang twice and was quickly connected.

The voice on the other end was very crisp and quite tacit.

"Where are you going?"

"Institute for Advanced Study."

"Roger, five minutes."

……

The third basement floor of the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.

After passing the curfew and stepping into his underground laboratory, Lu Zhou walked to the computer leaning against the pitch-black quantum computer and sat down, took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

It took about a minute to sort out his thoughts, and then Lu Zhou started the system's accelerated scientific research function, combined with the literature and materials such as visual and auditory signal simulation, neural access, neural signal modulation and demodulation, etc., and described his own problems in his mind.

[Consumption points: 15,000 points]

【Do you want to redeem?】 】

It's more expensive than a controlled fusion control system.

And that's the pricing after your own upgrade......

Looking at this terrifying number, Lu Zhou was secretly speechless in his heart, but he still focused his consciousness efforts on the "confirm" button.

The moment the button was selected, the holographic dialog box in the field of vision instantly scattered into blue points of light, floating towards him.

Almost as soon as the blue point of light touched the tip of his pen, a warm current gushed out of his spinal nerves, crawled all the way up the back of his head, and penetrated inward in the direction of the cerebral cortex.

Gradually, the warm current became hotter and hotter, and the frequency of washing over his brain became faster and faster.

Feeling the scorching magma-like temperature, Lu Zhou couldn't help but clench his fists, gritted his teeth, and a drop of cold sweat gradually oozed from his forehead.

If it was before, even if you didn't pass out, most of you would have been in a trance for a while.

But now, even if you rely on your will, you can survive it.

I don't know how long it took, but the feeling of a breeze swept past his ears, allowing the soul-washing heat to gradually cool and cool into a warm current.

Feeling the knowledge that filled his brain, Lu Zhou took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

In just ten minutes, he felt like ten years had passed.

It wasn't until then that he realized that his back had been soaked with sweat at some point......

"It's finally over."

Sitting on the chair and calming his breath for a while, Lu Zhou, who felt that he had recovered, began to review the knowledge he had received from the system earlier.

It's an amazing experience.

A series of knowledge about neural access technology has been engraved in his mind.

This feeling is like having an extra memory in the brain out of thin air that does not belong to you, and every punctuation point is full of unfamiliar feelings, but it is clear enough to even "see".

It took about half an hour to review these knowledge points, and Lu Zhou, who finally completed this work, had a sudden expression in his eyes.

"I see......"

"It seems that there is a reason why it is expensive."

Immersive virtual reality is like a puzzle, it is not something that exists as a whole, but is made up of countless fragmented pieces.

For example, a modem for nerve signals.

This device alone involves countless cutting-edge research.

The titanium alloy prosthetic leg on Li Gaoliang's body can be regarded as an application of this technology. The nerve signal modulation is modulated into an electrical signal and transmitted to the electric drive at the joint, so as to complete a series of complex actions.

Because the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study has a project in this area, Lu Zhou still understands this.

Then there are a series of problems such as the simulation of visual, auditory, and olfactory signals, as well as physiological and chemical stimulation without side effects, which are the most cutting-edge research in biology involving neuroscience and biochemistry, although it has a history of more than 30 years, but there is still no breakthrough.

And these are the theoretical basis for lighting up this branch of the technology tree, and the popular point is the pre-technology, and the system also provides him with a fairly complete answer.

In short, now that the whole blueprint is in his hands, how to use it is up to his personal preference.

Realizing this, Lu Zhou's eyes not only had a trace of excitement.

Now he needs to worry about how to turn this blueprint into reality!

Without any stops, while this blueprint and in his mind had not become blurred, Lu Zhou recorded what he got from the system on the computer and stored it in Xiao Ai's database.

At this time, a string of bubbles suddenly popped up in the lower right corner of the computer.

Xiao Ai: [Master, your back is soaked, do you want to change your clothes? (?°?°?) 】

The fingers that were typing stopped, Lu Zhou thought about it, nodded and said.

"Well, bring it for me."

The drone lying on the table swayed and floated, and after a while, it quickly took out a spare set of clothes from the storage room next door.

"Thank you."

Xiao Ai: [You're welcome, that one, do you need Xiao Ai to help the master change clothes?] (///ω///)】

Glancing at the mechanical arm next to him, Lu Zhou said expressionlessly.

“…… Thanks, no need. ”
