Arcane Lord

Vol 2 Chapter 1857: brain in a vat

"I?"

Xia Duo didn't expect that he was given such great expectations. To be honest, he felt that this scene was somewhat dreamy, not like it was real.

"right!"

The Eye of Terror expressed his affirmation again, and at the same time threw a crystal ball to Xia Duo, and said: "The consciousness of Cobalt is inside, and the time inside will be reset every ten minutes or so, and it can be advanced or delayed as needed. After that, it's up to you to decide, and I just hope to hear good news from you as soon as possible."

"This-"

It is too important. Shado thinks that the "personality" he has shown since joining Everisca is not enough to make the Eye of Fear value him so much. With this crystal ball in his hand, he It felt hot and sticky, so I asked again:

"Aren't you afraid that I will destroy the consciousness of this cobalt?"

"It doesn't matter, this is just a copy of our consciousness projected by us. As long as the Cobalt body is still there, more can be projected at any time. You can use whatever means you have without worrying about damage."

Looking at the pale teeth exposed by the Eye of Fear, Xia Duo felt a chill in his heart for some reason, and when he got involved with Cobalt, he was simply not as good as death!

And this kind of interrogation method, Xia Duo has never seen or even heard of it before on the projection plane or the main plane. Only before the crossing, there were similar plots in some science fiction novels on Earth.

Isn't this a brain in a vat!

The time of the consciousness copy will be reset, which means that the interrogator can test the reaction of the other party through countless keywords. In this case, no matter how strict the other party is, it is inevitable that a large amount of information will be leaked without knowing it.

"If that's the case, then I'll give it a try, but this cage of consciousness was given to me, so you guys have been waiting?" Xia Duo shook the crystal ball in his hand and looked at Oggs.

In this regard, Oggs just smiled and took out another crystal ball, "We still have it here, don't worry, we will continue to interrogate, but in a short period of time, we have used almost all the means we can think of. , It mainly depends on you, you must find a breakthrough as soon as possible, otherwise the Funas Chamber of Commerce may completely erase the relevant clues at any time, or take action in advance, no matter which kind is very unfavorable to Everiska.”

"I understand, I'll go back to interrogate, Sergis, do you want to invite him too?"

"Alright, but based on what I know about him, if there is no accident, I probably won't be able to ask any useful clues. You go back first, and I'll find him later."

"Um."

Xia Duo nodded and then left the Genting Tower.

Assos Manor.

After returning to the study, Xia Duo brought back the crystal ball of consciousness cage and put it on the desk. To be honest, at this moment, he was much more interested in the crystal ball itself than the copy of the cobalt consciousness that was imprisoned inside.

If you can have this thing on the main plane, doesn't it mean that anyone caught by him has no secrets?

While there are many spells that can do this, this cage of consciousness, which can be reset at will, is obviously more efficient and convenient.

"Let me see how you did it!"

Away from the sight of Ogus and other high mages, Xia Duo cast the [Appraisal Technique] on the crystal ball on the table in the study without much hesitation.

The effect of [Appraisal] is similar to building a virtual sandbox in which various effects of magic items are continuously demonstrated. Although the essence of magic items cannot be directly seen, according to various feedbacks made by them, an approximate approximation can also be deduced. the result of.

In fact, with the operation methods provided by Ogus and Eye of Fear, Xado's actual "appraisal" is much less costly than identifying completely unknown instruments.

About a quarter of an hour later, the special field aura created by the [Appraisal Technique] completely dissipated from the crystal ball, and Xia Duo showed a thoughtful expression.

The only thing that is really useful to him on this consciousness cage is actually the means to reset the time, but after a simple identification, he found that this consciousness cage cannot reset the time.

At least not the reset time he thought.

In fact, the designer made a clever trick in it. When he was in the Genting Tower before, Oggs mentioned that as long as the body of Cobalt is still there, this kind of consciousness copy can always be projected.

The real principle of this cage used as a copy of consciousness is actually similar to that of ontology projection, except that every so-called "reset time" here is actually a projection of a new projection.

The projection of the projection of the previous "time cycle" was naturally destroyed, otherwise if it was connected to the projection, the copy of consciousness would be polluted.

In the same way, no matter how many times this copy of consciousness is interrogated, it cannot be connected to Cobalt's true consciousness, otherwise pollution will also occur.

After roughly understanding the principle of this kind of consciousness cage, Xia Duo is a little more cautious about the current projection plane, because the ability to make a magic tool to isolate consciousness and consciousness projection here means that his consciousness can be completely trapped in the projection plane. here.

The actual situation may be more serious. He is not sure whether his body will give birth to a new consciousness or die instantly (vegetative) after his consciousness is blocked here.

From the point of view of self-perception, once his perception of the ontology is interrupted, that is, he is not a copy of consciousness projected from the ontology, then he should be regarded as an independent individual. The body is irrelevant.

Even if the ontology will derive an identical consciousness, it is not what he currently thinks of himself.

Of course, Xia Duo prefers his own consciousness to be the essence of self-existence, because the carry-on space follows his consciousness, and even the soul has to be placed slightly behind.

That is to say, his experience on the projection plane is extremely real. Once his consciousness is trapped or even killed, it is really gone.

"This means—"

Behind the desk, Xia Duo frowned, and his eyes were fixed on the crystal ball on the table. He was instinctively afraid of this cage of consciousness that had "identified" some inside information, but he subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

If this problem is not clear, he feels that he has no intention of staying in this projection plane any longer.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo transmits his perception into the crystal ball. Since it is called a cage, the relevant scenes have naturally been arranged inside.

This is a scene similar to a stagnant room. The ground is covered with complex patterns of the magic circle. The golden elf Colite that Shado saw last night is being imprisoned above the magic circle in a "big" shape.

Of course, all of this is an illusion, even Cobalt itself. The truth of the copy of consciousness actually exists in the crystal ball in the form of aura.

Xia Duo turned around and looked around, but did not find his body, so he couldn't help but move in his heart, and manipulated the illusion inside the crystal ball to change slightly.
