"They also extracted a large number of souls." Lilina squinted her eyes, reminding me of something that had almost been forgotten.
"A soul, in itself, is a set of highly efficient computing rules. A person's memory is a database, self-awareness is various applications and front-end, while the soul is the underlying computing rules and operating system. The 'hardware' computation ability of a carbon-based life form's brain is limited by its physiological structure. Once it attempts calculations beyond its limits, various biological self-protection mechanisms will activate: shock, coma, fatigue, attention deficit, and other physiological phenomena will prevent the brain from performing operations beyond its physical limits. Since in most cases, the soul exists dependent on the physical body, its data processing is also confined to this level."
