Chapter 121 Correcting Memories

Lin Xi and the female players under her command had been watching Tang Li expectantly.

For the past two days, they had been the ones taking care of these women whose memories had been tampered with.

Seeing their sisters, who were clearly victims, now helping their tormentors because their memories had been altered, they all felt a pang of discomfort.

They all wished to quickly erase the false memories implanted in their minds.

At this moment, seeing that Tang Li was not experiencing dizziness like the others who had worn the brain-computer interface helmets before, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Hearing Tang Li’s question, Lin Xi replied,

“Researcher Song said that the brain-computer interface cannot delete memories, knowledge, or thoughts. It can only modify and re-edit existing information.

The memories implanted by the people of Country R were not added; they were implanted after deleting their original memories. That’s why they could retain their memories from childhood to adulthood.”

At this point, Song Pinxuan also arrived. Hearing Lin Xi’s words, he proceeded to give Tang Li a professional explanation.

Essentially, if a person’s memories are lost, it is caused by the death of a large number of brain cells. Although brain-computer interfaces can alter memories, they cannot cause brain cell death, and thus cannot delete memories.

Hearing this, Tang Li finally understood why the people of Country R had only altered these women’s memories related to the "Tianwang Gang" and had not brainwashed them completely.

After all, human memory is interconnected.

If they had altered too much, it might have left loopholes due to the inability to cover every aspect.

“Then how should these memories, which have been tampered with by the people of Country R, be corrected?” Tang Li asked again.

Song Pinxuan did not answer directly but instead asked, “What do these tampered memories from Country R look like?”

Although she couldn’t recall the fleeting memories, she had some impression of the memories she had specifically investigated.

“They are scenes of carefree eating, drinking, and having fun in the exchanges controlled by the Tianwang Gang, overlaid with a very beautiful filter, making it seem as if the places controlled by the Tianwang Gang were a paradise.

It was completely different from what we saw in the exchanges. It might be synthesized computer-generated images implanted into their memories by Country R.

Additionally, part of it involved the specific content of the suicide attacks that the Tianwang Gang ordered them to carry out.”

Hearing Tang Li’s words, Lin Xi frowned.

She asked, “But we cannot translate computer-generated images into human brain memories. How can we correct their memories?”

Upon hearing this, Song Pinxuan calmly said,

“While we cannot translate computer-generated images into human brain memories, we can input existing memories from others to correct those false memories.

Country R implanted memories that glorified the Tianwang Gang; we can input memories that vilify the Tianwang Gang, revealing their true nature and deleting those idealized memories.

This way, they will no longer believe the Tianwang Gang has indebted them, and they will no longer be willing to sacrifice their lives for the Tianwang Gang as they were before.”

Hearing Song Pinxuan’s words, Lin Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Then let’s not delay any further. I’ll try it now,” Tang Li said, putting on the brain-computer interface helmet again.

She once again extended her consciousness into the mind of the woman on the bed, locating that strange memory.

Then, she intercepted some negative memories of the Tianwang Gang from her own mind and implanted them into that strange memory, overwriting the original ones.

These negative memories of the Tianwang Gang were all witnessed by Tang Li herself.

There were partially processed bloody limbs in the human meat factory, and bloody human organs on the dining tables of Tianwang Gang’s high-ranking members…

Of course, this also included the fact that the Tianwang Gang brainwashed them and ordered them to carry out suicide attacks.

Afterward, Tang Li took off the brain-computer interface helmet again.

Lin Xi also unplugged the connecting wire from the brain-computer interface attached to the woman’s head, waking her from her dormant state.

This woman had been the most disruptive, refusing to cooperate during meals.

But this time, as she opened her eyes and was about to cause trouble, she suddenly stopped…
