Chapter 286 Who are you showing this ugly face to?
Yan Shupei's face was solemn, and he said solemnly: "Tan, there is an old saying that goes, 'Learn and know your shortcomings, teach and know your difficulties. Only when you know your shortcomings can you reflect on yourself; only when you know your difficulties can you become stronger. Therefore, it is said that teaching and learning benefit each other. The Academy of Sciences has always attached great importance to the moral education and academic education of students. We will seriously and promptly rectify the problems we found today, please rest assured."
Tan Hairu's clear and bright face remained unmoved. The corners of her lips turned down slightly as she said indifferently, "A wise man uses his brightness to enlighten others. Now, you use your darkness to enlighten others. This is no less than climbing a tree to catch fish or looking for fire in a well. It's fine if you waste your efforts, but if you lead students astray, it will be a heinous crime. How can you feel at ease?"
Yan Shupei bowed his head and said, "What you taught me is something that I will always keep in mind."
Ai Wanxin's eyes widened slightly. Who is this person? Yan Shupei looks at least fifty years old. How could he call himself a student in front of this person?
The students who had just complained knew that they were in trouble, and they all lowered their heads and dared not say a word.
Tong Xichuan was sweating profusely. Could the "其" in "其昏昏" be referring to him?
Tan Hairu glanced around again and his eyes fell on Tuoba Qing: "Since the Security Bureau has reached out to the Academy of Sciences, it would be best if they really have something to teach them."
Tuoba Qing did not answer. He always ignored everyone except Ai Wanxin.
Tan Hairu didn't expect him to answer, so she asked in a deep voice, "Who is the student with the highest spiritual power among you?"
Many people secretly turned their heads to look at Pang Kun. He was really unsure, so he stood up and said in a weak voice: "Yes...it's me..."
"Come with me." After saying that, Tan Hairu turned and left the classroom.
Yan Shupei said: "The first batch of students from other colleges in Guanghui City have arrived. Xichuan, you make the arrangements. Shenshou, you come too."
Yi Shenshou glanced at Ai Wanxin with some worry, fearing that they would all leave and the people from the Security Bureau would make things difficult for her, but the teacher called him and he had to go, so he had to walk out quickly.
Pang Kun didn't know what he was asked to do, so he followed nervously.
He was so nervous that he didn't care that he hated Yi Shenshou. He leaned closer and asked, "Hey, do you know where this is going?"
Yi Shenshou said without looking away, "I don't know."
Pang Kun cursed inwardly, "You are so shameless. I have condescended to talk to you first, who are you showing this stinky face to?"
However, Yan Shupei was only half a meter in front of him, so he didn't dare to get angry at all.
The four of them did not walk far. After coming out of the teaching building, they turned into the gymnasium nearby.
Among the ten sports stadiums of the Academy of Sciences, this one has the largest indoor space. At this time, all the debris in the stadium has been cleared away, and in the center of the empty venue, there is a one-story-high silver oval metal warehouse.
Surrounding the metal warehouse, there are dozens of square metal grids neatly arranged in varying sizes. The smallest is about half a person's height, and the largest is the same height as the metal warehouse in the center.
As soon as they came in, two men in white coats came up to them.
"Mr. Tan." The two men called respectfully.
Tan Hairu turned his head and ordered, "Let him enter the test chamber."
"Who?" Pang Kun looked at the two people coming towards him with a shocked expression, "Me...me?"
"Teacher!" Pang Kun completely forgot that he was a traitor who was expelled from the sect by Yan Shupei, and shouted in panic, "What are you going to test me on?"
Yan Shupei sighed softly and said, "It's okay, let's test your mental strength."
Pang Kun was almost carried by the two men into the metal warehouse in the center. They silently and skillfully took off his shirt and let him lie on an alloy bed.
As soon as he lay down, several metal hoops fastened him firmly to the alloy bed. Pang Kun struggled immediately, but except for his fingers and toes, he could not move his whole body.
Pang Kun shouted in panic, "No, this wasn't the way we tested mental strength before. What on earth are you trying to do?"
The two men had a clear division of labor. The younger one took down a bunch of wires connected to the electrodes from a metal bracket nearby, while the other man, who looked to be in his thirties, took the wires one by one and attached them to Pang Kun's head and upper body.
Seeing Pang Kun's muscles tense and his face filled with fear, he spoke in confusion, with a hint of contempt in his tone: "Are you a sentry? Why are you so timid? Your dean is outside, can we eat you up?"
"Now it's not just a test of mental power, but a test of the ability to convert and synchronize mental power. Of course, it's more complicated. Stop howling, the New Year pig can't even scream as loud as you."
Pang Kun stopped shouting and asked doubtfully, "What...what is the ability of transformation synchronization?"
"I can't tell you what it is specifically, but you will have to use all your mental strength to get as high as you can, understand?"
The arrow was on the string and Pang Kun had no choice but to agree.
The two men put on the electrodes, walked out of the metal warehouse, and moved into a metal square box next to it. Tan Hairu, Yan Shupei, and Yi Shenshou were already waiting there.
This is a small room filled with instruments, with an operating table in the middle. A suspended light screen displays the scene inside the metal warehouse and dozens of progress bars with different symbols.
The two stood in front of the operating table and looked back at Tan Hairu. Seeing her nod, the middle-aged man pressed the recording button on the light screen and said, "Gaia, connect the sentinel neuron."
An elegant female voice sounded: "Activate the Sentinel Neuron connection."
On the light screen, Pang Kun in the metal warehouse was shocked. He turned on the speaker again and said, "Use all your mental strength."
On the other half of the light screen, the first progress bar showing the mental strength value quickly passed level B, and when it was half a finger away from level A, it began to oscillate repeatedly.
The middle-aged man shook his head: "My mental strength is too low."
The younger one asked, "So are we still doing synchronization?"
The middle-aged man looked at Tan Hairu, and seeing that she didn't say anything, he said, "Let's try."
"Gaia, activate the mimic neural network."
"Mimetic neural network activated."
"Loading psychosync."
"Psychosynchronous rate 0.0%——"
The two looked at each other and saw familiar disappointment in each other's eyes.
"It's OK." Tan Hairu finally spoke, "His mental strength is too low to break through the boundary between man and machine. Let him go."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man said, "Gaia, the experiment failed. Disconnect the neurons."
"The neuronal connections have been severed."
The progress bar showing mental power on the light screen suddenly turned gray.
Yi Shenshou had been standing quietly behind Yan Shupei, looking at the light screen in front of him.
Tan Hairu is a leader in the field of neurobiology and has an engineering background. In addition to theoretical research, she has always been at the forefront of the world in the application of brain-computer interface technology.
This technology can realize the interaction between thinking and external devices by converting brain commands into computer signals. For example, it can allow people with limited mobility to regain the ability to move freely through wearable devices.
Before the end of the world, some products using this technology have been put into use.
But obviously, today's experiment is not just about this technology that is close to maturity.
After Tan Hairu's two assistants left, she turned to Yan Shupei and said, "Dean Yan, you should have heard that before the end of the world, devices using brain-computer interface technology had been put into production and played a role in some special groups of people."
"But in reality, that's just a very basic application of the technology."
"I went through so much trouble to move the experimental platform to the Academy of Sciences in the hope of getting your assistance."
