Chapter 563

Jie Ming returned to the laboratory, and the sound-insulation magic array around him operated automatically, completely isolating the noise of the battlefield outside.

He took out those blue crystals from his body's cave and lined them up on the laboratory bench.

The total number was one hundred and three.

They varied in size and form, but inside each one, countless fine light spots were flowing slowly, like living things.

"Entropy Brain..."

Jie Ming muttered to himself.

This is the official name just announced by the Expeditionary Force.

The core crystals left behind after those information-based organisms died were officially named "Entropy Brain."

Meaning "brain of entropy-reducing organisms," which is quite appropriate.

He raised his right hand, and the pale golden light in his eyes lit up slowly.

Eye of Universality.

Then golden light also lit up between his brows.

Fate System.

The information collection ability of the Eye of Universality combined with the computing power blessing of the Fate System can see through the essence of most matter and energy.

Under the shroud of light, the internal structure of the Entropy Brain gradually became clear.

First appearing in his eyes was a fact that was extremely surprising.

This blue crystal, which seemed to contain a large amount of energy, had almost no energy inside.

Jie Ming frowned, confirmed it three times carefully, and finally accepted this result.

There is indeed no energy storage of any form inside these crystals.

There are no free-state elemental fluctuations, no law residues, and even the most basic heat is minimal.

But their information structure is shockingly complex.

Jie Ming "saw" countless fine lines, like the most precise integrated circuits, layered and intertwined inside the crystal. Those light spots are the carriers of information, flowing along fixed paths, constantly circulating and reorganizing.

Undoubtedly, this is a natural biological data processing organ.

High-speed calculation, massive storage, encrypted transmission... all functions are integrated into one, and it doesn't need to consume too much energy?

Jie Ming gasped.

He continued to parse deeply, combined with his previous understanding of information-based organisms, and a blurry picture gradually emerged in his mind:

The entire civilization of information-based organisms is very likely a biological quantum network covering the entire plane.

Every individual is a node in the network, communicating silently through quantum entanglement states.

Information transmission has no delay, no loss, and no boundaries.

Their social structure must be perfectly flattened, with no leaders, no classes, and all decisions are automatically generated by network consensus algorithms. What does this mean?

It means that in the process of evolution, this race must have experienced countless internal splits and algorithmic wars.

Every conflict is a survival of the fittest of algorithms, finally evolving into the current most efficient survival mode.

And the Entropy Brain is the legacy left by this evolution.

Jie Ming stared at those blue crystals, a flash of realization in his eyes.

"This thing... can be used as the core material for data processing terminals."

He muttered to himself, and countless application scenarios had already emerged in his mind.

"If I manufacture a cannon fodder organism based on this, it would be a quite good experimental assistant... but using it to directly manufacture information processing terminals also seems not bad..."

After fantasizing in his mind for a while, Jie Ming began new research on the Entropy Brain.

But unfortunately, the subsequent research only confirmed his previous thoughts.

"Does this thing only have this use? Although it is indeed not bad..."

Jie Ming hesitated for a moment and made a risky decision.

"Try direct contact."

Jie Ming closed the Eye of Universality, condensed his spiritual power into an extremely thin thread, probed out carefully, and touched the smallest Entropy Brain nearby lightly.

At that moment, a mutation occurred.

That Entropy Brain collapsed suddenly, turned into countless fine light spots, and poured into his brows crazily along his spiritual power thread.

Jie Ming shuddered.

He didn't even have time to react before those light spots had already disappeared into his spiritual sea without a trace.

"This..."

Jie Ming was stunned.

He checked his spiritual sea, checked his soul core, checked his body's cave... subconsciously.

No abnormalities.

Those light spots did not cause any damage, nor did they leave any information.

But what did they do?

Just as Jie Ming was puzzled, he suddenly felt something unusual.

In his mind, the knowledge he had accumulated for hundreds of years began to "move."

In the last few hundred years, in order to make up for his knowledge level as a Level 5 wizard, Jie Ming had learned too much new knowledge, to the point that a new problem appeared—although he could understand this knowledge, he was temporarily unable to integrate it.

Just like a warehouse full of books; the books are all there, but no one organizes them, and when you want to find a certain one, you often have to flip through it for a long time.

But now, those light spots are helping him organize.

"This is... so that's how it is, maintaining the instinct of the organism before death?"

Jie Ming immediately understood that this Entropy Brain, after entering his soul, was actually instinctively making the knowledge in his mind more "orderly."

He could clearly feel that the knowledge in his mind was being classified and archived.

Those originally isolated rune principles and alchemy began to resonate, and those vague wizard theories and cultivation knowledge began to verify each other. Even the destiny-type knowledge and fate-type knowledge that he had studied for decades but never found the way into were now being digested with the assistance of some force.

It is not direct indoctrination, but "combing."

It's like having a top-tier mentor who taught him all his knowledge again hand-in-hand, taking apart the parts he originally "knew but didn't understand," crushing them, and then explaining them thoroughly.

He didn't know how much time had passed.

When Jie Ming came back to his senses, he found that his understanding of fate knowledge had already advanced by a large margin.

He was only one step away from entering the door.

And that destiny-type knowledge had also changed from a mess to a clear context.

Jie Ming looked down at the remaining Entropy Brains on the laboratory bench, and his eyes lit up suddenly.

They really lit up.

That was a manifestation of spiritual power dissipating outward because he was too excited.

"This thing..."

His voice was a bit trembling, but after hesitating for a few times, Jie Ming didn't know how to describe it.

The only resource that could really be compared to this would be the origin of the plane, but compared to it, the origin of the plane is not on the same level at all! Jie Ming had used the origin of the plane and knew its upper limit very well.

The origin of the plane is indeed precious and can directly transmit massive amounts of knowledge to the user.

But that knowledge is chaotic and disorganized, requiring the user to digest and understand it themselves, and most of it is unimportant fragments.

And the Entropy Brain...

Although it cannot increase your understanding ability, it can comb through all the knowledge you already have.

It can take the things you have learned but don't understand and present them again in a way you can understand.

What does this amount to?

It amounts to having a top-tier mentor who has tailored a combing plan for your personal knowledge system.

Jie Ming took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to try another one immediately.

He closed his eyes, feeling the brand-new sense of transparency in his mind.

Then he opened his eyes, looked at the remaining Entropy Brains, and a rational light flashed in his eyes.

"Cannot be used continuously."

The effect of this ability of the Entropy Brain is too good.

But if used continuously, the effect will decrease.

It's not that problems like resistance will appear, but another more practical reason: combing through knowledge that has already been combed through again cannot be said to have no harvest, but it is definitely not as great as before.

The best way to use it is to learn a bunch of new knowledge first, and when it accumulates to a certain level, use the Entropy Brain for a major combing.

Only in this way can the effect be maximized.

Jie Ming stared at those blue crystals, and the corners of his mouth slowly parted.

He especially wanted to rush into the Information Plane now, kill everyone, and turn all those information-based organisms into Entropy Brains.

Jie Ming took a deep breath, took another deep breath, and forcibly suppressed that urge.

Impulse is the devil.

He looked out the window.

In the sky, white light surged crazily behind the blockade layer.

In the future, there will be plenty of time to harvest slowly.

Jie Ming withdrew his gaze, sat cross-legged, and began to close his eyes to digest the harvest.
