Chapter 981: Chapter 53 Congratulations on Making the Shortlist_2
At that mont, we were lost, unsure of where life should take us. We had briefly explored the field of mathematics, studied the cosmological constant; we had also been curious about the conception of ti travel, dabbling but never delving deep.
Yet, after going round in circles in these domains, we still couldn’t let go of our obsession, curiosity, and yearning for Hibernation Technology.
It’s an indescribable feeling, as if… by so mysterious fate, we’ve always felt an affinity towards Hibernation Pods and everything about Hibernation Technology, as if my life’s energy and talent were ant to be devoted to this field.
Professor Xu Yun, the Father of Hibernation, is the scientist we respect the most. His untily passing filled us with deep regret, otherwise… perhaps we could have had the chance to witness this great man who arrived from hibernation in the 23rd century.
Since the obsession is so strong, why not stand on the shoulders of giants to reach higher, to see further?
We were born at the end of the 22nd century, in 2182. At that ti, the academic world of hibernation unanimously agreed that the side-effect of amnesia was inevitable and irreversible; many brilliant scientists devoted their lives without achieving any results in preventing amnesia or restoring mory.
...
It was a stagnant field, a research path with no hope in sight… Perhaps… we could give it a try!
Long-term hibernation causing amnesia as a side-effect is indeed inevitable, a flaw in the human brain structure that cannot be changed. But… what if we change our perspective and attempt to restore the lost mories after awakening from hibernation?
In this world, there are no hard drives that can be completely wiped clean, no sketchboards that can be entirely erased. Where geese pass, they leave a mark; where the wind blows, it leaves a sound… Anything that has existed will surely leave a trace, including mories.
Are lost mories truly gone? Or are they simply dormant, hidden, temporarily blocked?
I began tackling this from the fields of cerebral neurology and neuroscience, formulating a complete theory on my own, feeling that the concept of reactivating brain mories with electric currents is logically and scientifically feasible.
But…
The problem lies in…
The neuroscience research of the 23rd century that I live in is too backward, nearly two centuries without key breakthroughs.
I’ve already constructed the Neural Electrocution Helt Unit-01, but lacking support and guidance in the field of brain neurology on critical paraters, my experint remains stuck at the last crucial step, unable to advance.
Therefore, I made a significant decision—
To take this research finding and sleep in the Hibernation Pod until a key breakthrough in the field of brain neurology is achieved, then wake up from hibernation and continue with the research on the electric shock helt and the restoration of mories lost to hibernation.
If my estimation is optimistic… the era you are reading this letter in, is it perhaps 23XX? Surely not 24XX, right? I believe it won’t be any later… Surely the field of brain neurology has not remained stagnant for over 200 years?
It is indeed a sad affair, our misfortune that the genius scientist in brain neurology, Lady Du Yao, passed away in a peacekeeping aid operation in Africa in the mid-21st century… Otherwise, why would we need to wait for centuries?
If Lady Du Yao had not t with disaster that year, with her intelligence and extraordinary talent, perhaps she could have made the key breakthrough in the field of brain neurology in the 21st century, and I wouldn’t have needed to hibernate to the future, you wouldn’t need to confront a blank mind upon reading this letter.
There’s no other way… There’s a saying that goes well, the ergence of an Einstein truly does outweigh the work of hundreds of excellent scientists; heroes make history, but geniuses create it. Perhaps in the 200 years without another Lady Du Yao, our research gap remains unfilled… that would be a tragedy for human civilization.
I sincerely hope that upon awakening, humanity has achieved a key breakthrough in the field of brain neurology. If so, you need not ponder too much, just follow the notebook’s contents to complete the Neural Electrocution Helt Unit-01, then… boldly wear it, activate it, and reclaim your lost mories!
At that ti, you will naturally understand everything we have been through, and… the future we anticipated.
With that, I wish you all the best.
Gao Wen.
November 2219, written in East Sea.
…
“So that’s how it is.”
Having read through this long handwritten letter, Lin Xian finally understood the events that had befallen Gao Wen.
Emperor Gao Wen.
Born in 2182.
From an early age, he was interested in Hibernation Technology, and as he grew older, he devoted himself to the research, the Gao Wen of this lifeti not lured by the cosmological constant, nor seduced by the Ti Shuttle Machine, but remaining true to his original aspiration, focused on the “Neural Electrocution Helt Unit-01.”
He longed to conquer the side-effect of mory loss due to hibernation.
But the research stalled at the last step…
Humanity, in the field of brain neurology, had seen no key breakthrough for hundreds of years since Lady Du Yao’s death at the beginning of the 21st century.
Therefore, Emperor Gao Wen decided “to exchange ti for space,” “to believe in humanity’s future,” to believe that in the span of hundreds of years, a second Du Yao would erge to fill the gap in the field of brain neurology.
Thus.
When Gao Wen wakes up from the Hibernation Pod.
He won’t need to consider much.
Just follow the notes in the notebook, draw from the gourd’s pattern, and make the “Neural Electrocution Helt Unit-01.”
After crafting it.
Place it on his head.
