3 2 301 DialogEnable A few minutes later, a massive fireball with a long and fiery tail falls near Nikola from the sky.
4 3 301 It slows. The large, grid-like main cabin with the Star of Life Medical logo on its side could be seen from the ground.
5 4 301 The rubble crumbles from the thrust produced by the engine.
6 5 301 Eventually, it landed on the center of an open space steadily.

11 10 301 1 Nikola It's necessary as it's an emergency and a special case. 2
12 11 301 Asimov The Science Council and Star of Life are in the same boat with you now. 1
13 12 301 Nikola No need to worry about the law issues, I'll explain to the council. 2
14 13 301 Asimov Is there something to do with your relationship with President Hassen? 1
15 14 301 Nikola No, I'm just good at dealing with troublesome works... like this. 2
16 15 301 Nikola Anyway, we should play our own parts. When it comes to the future of humans, we shouldn't have any hesitation... 2
17 16 301 Nikola Now get prepared for the remote surgery. 2
18 17 301 Asimov ... 1
19 18 301 Asimov Frankly speaking, we're only able to simulate the human consciousness even with the technology of M.I.N.D. 1
20 19 301 Asimov You should know that direct operation towards consciousness is way more complicated than general surgery, right? 1
21 20 301 Nikola Of course, otherwise I wouldn't let you, the only person who has acquired this skill in the whole Babylonia, lead this operation. 2
22 21 301 ......
23 22 301 Asimov The analysis of consciousness has been completed. We will make a proposal regarding the process of memory... 1
24 23 301 Nikola That's our new pride of Babylonia. 2
25 24 301 Asimov I'm just trying to end the whole thing as soon as possible... 1
26 25 301 Nikola Then I should tell you the truth. 2
27 26 301 Nikola The past experience has caused ineffaceable impacts on her. 2
28 27 301 Nikola Then I have to tell you that part of her consciousness is in a state of high entropy, which is kind of chaotic, and very... persistent. 2
29 28 301 Nikola That's why I need her... to stay loyal to humanity. 2
30 29 301 Asimov In short, you want to erase her memory... 1
31 30 301 Nikola Only if necessary. 2
32 31 301 Asimov Then I have to tell you that part of her consciousness is in a state of high-entropy, which is kind of chaotic, and very... persistent. 1
33 32 301 Asimov Even if I can deal with it, our connection is insufficient to meet the requirement of such a high-precision transfer. 1
34 33 301 Asimov If we insist to extract her memory, I cannot undertake the consequences. 1
35 34 301 Nikola Then what's your plan? 2
36 35 301 Asimov I think we better save that part of memory in the form of subconsciousness. 1
37 36 301 Asimov If we can prevent it from being awakened, we'll be able to keep the integrity of her personality so that it won't be affected by that part of her memory. 1
38 37 301 Asimov However, we cannot promise whether deviation will occur with time or not even if we adopt the more conservative plan. 1
39 38 301 Nikola I just need her will to be strong enough to last until the end of the war, as for the deviation... 2
40 39 301 Asimov ... 1
41 40 301 Asimov In this case, I'll carry out a branch operation on her consciousness, and make a copy of it. 1
42 41 301 Nikola Wait, as I remember, your principle is to retain the uniqueness of consciousness, right? 2
43 42 301 Asimov Yes, and it's the only way to guarantee... 1
44 43 301 Nikola You... become astonishingly obsessive when it comes to protecting the consciousness of the Construct... 2
45 44 301 Asimov ... 1
46 45 301 Nikola I thought it was quite common for you to deal with cases like that when doing scientific researches. 2
47 46 301 Nikola Hmph, I'm quite surprised that you're such a compassionate person, seeing that you usually treat the Constructs as your objects of study. 2
48 47 301 Asimov Don't overthink it. As a scientific researcher, I need a copy of her main personality as a control, that's all. 1
49 48 301 Nikola It's up to you... In fact, we only need to ensure there's only one active consciousness at the same time. 2
