MTL - Right on Target-Chapter 120 mechanical

Su Heting suppressed his emotions and said, "So—"

So Xie Zhenshu will not die.

Artemis was very keen and said, "Are you interested in the experimental subjects of the southerners?"

Su Heting said: "Yes, I am interested, super invincible is interested. Let me confirm that if the people from the southern line want to activate things like Zhuyin, they must rely on Xie... rely on their experimental subjects, right?"

Artemis said, "Yes."

It actually said "oh".

But then, it said: "They may also mass-produce the experimental bodies like they did with the Night Walking Girl. After all, it is not stable for only one person to start a large-scale mechanical creation."

Su Heting lifted the quilt and sat up. He touched the band-aid on his cheek and said, "What does instability mean?"

Artemis said: "All things considered, mind uploading is not something you can get used to easily."

Su Heting's heart was pounding, he recovered from the despair of the explosion, and thought quickly. Artemis would not come to him for no reason, out of caution, he asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"

The display screen made large ripples like water, the glass jars containing the experimental subjects disappeared, and the screen became a street scene.

Artemis said: "I need you to help me maintain the normality of District 14 and make it more realistic."

Su Heting said: "Understood, the new task is to act as a maintenance worker. But Fu Chenghui agreed?"

"He has no reason to disagree," said Artemis.

Su Heting said: "Understood."

Artemis turned the camera and said to Su Heting, "Report next door in two weeks."

Su Heting thought a lot in two weeks, from prying open the door and escaping to assassinating Fu Chenghui. Unfortunately, these plans were all in vain under the watchful eyes of surveillance. When he could get down to the ground, he went next door.

After passing six information tests, Su Heting took the elevator to the underground laboratory. The surrounding lights turned from dark to bright, and when the elevator doors opened, he saw the glass jars.

A robot slid in front of Su Heting, its electronic eyes flashed, and it waved its mechanical arm at him, saying, "Welcome 7-006, I am your receptionist 3366."

It took Su Heting to visit the laboratory and introduced these experimental subjects to Su Heting. Su Heting did not miss the pale faces of the experimental subjects. Every glass jar he passed was a victim of the experiment. Suddenly, he understood 36810's confession in the recording.

Robot 3366 said: "I have to stare at them every day, and it's really busy."

Su Heting asked: "Will they wake up?"

3366 supported his chin with a robotic arm, making a thoughtful gesture. It hit its chin and said, "No, that would be too cruel."

Su Heting stuffed his pockets and didn't speak.

3366 turned his head and pointed Su Heting forward, where there was a row of mechanical box-like devices. It said, "That's your workbench."

This is a non-implantable brain-computer interface filled with electrodes that can help Su Heting enter Area 14. Its advantage is that there is no need for craniotomy and intrusion, and two-way commands are required to collect brain nerve signals, which ensures the privacy of users. But its disadvantage is the increase of sensory stimulation, and it cannot be disengaged automatically.

Su Heting entered the mechanical box and lay down in a narrow position, and the mechanical box began to automatically fit his body shape.

3366 stood outside, held up a small display screen, and said: "This time is just an experience, don't be nervous. Please look straight ahead... Information entry, very good, this will be your exclusive workstation from now on. Now please You close your eyes..."

The box gradually closed, closed like a coffin, and adjusted to the right temperature.

Su Heting closed his eyes, and there was an electronic countdown in his ears. He felt a sinking, and his head touched the cold round electrodes.

"Three, two, one... Welcome to District 14."

All thoughts are spinning, and there is an illusion that the soul is drifting away.

"Ding-"

Su Heting opened his eyes and found himself sitting in a convenience store. It was a sunny day outside the window, the summer sea stretched as far as the eye could see, and tourists in swimsuits frolicked on the beach.

incredible.

Su Heting clenched his fist, fortunately, this touch is different from the real world, but it is beyond his imagination.

He saw a spicy crayfish rice ball on his hand, so he picked it up and took it apart. This time, whether it is the texture of the plastic packaging or the touch of the rice balls, it is exactly the same as in the real world.

Su Heting took a bite of the rice ball, the taste was terrible and tasteless. He put down the rice ball, opened the door and walked out of the convenience store, the sun shone on him, and he felt the warmth.

— This is the electrical signals of the brain at work, and it works together with the mechanical box to give the illusion.

Su Heting walked to the road by the sea and bumped into a branch on the side of the road. The sea breeze blew, his hair was slightly disheveled, and he picked up a green leaf. In an instant, he was about to be moved by the light and shadow cast down.

Artemis' voice came from the wind: "Don't you like this place?"

Su Heting said: "I don't like Utopia."

Artemis said, "Why?"

Su Heting didn't answer, he asked: "What exactly are you looking for?"

Artemis said: "Pursue the new world."

It controls the environment simulator, so that the green leaves on both sides of the road will produce white flowers. Flowers suddenly fell on the road, and those petals piled up at the foot of Su Heting, like snow.

Artemis continued: "Humans want to live forever, and now, the 14-area experiment is looking for a way to achieve immortality. If the experiment succeeds, humans and system chips will become one, and the future coexistence will be Beyond infinity, we will also usher in a great new world. In that new world, everyone can directly input knowledge that was unimaginable in the past through computer information, and no longer have to fear aging and death.

"You walked past those experimental subjects, feeling very depressed, but Su Heting, they are not meaningless sacrifices. They are great existences for the future, for human beings, and for the new world.

"You may not believe it. Every 'Yan Junxun' has called me teacher. When I get along with them, I find that human beings have different personalities. Because of this difference, I love them just like parents love their children .When the experiment is successful, we can restore their consciousness data, and everyone will no longer have to face separation."

Su Heting let go of his hand, and the green leaves were blown away. He admits that Artemis' last words are particularly moving, but he is not part of the quest for immortality.

"Ding-"

The experience ended, and Su Heting woke up from the mechanical box and returned to the real world. His job is as simple as coming here every day to optimize the simulator, in exchange for three hours of free time at night.

Su Heting used these three hours to hack into the Black Panther's surveillance system, which was the inspiration given to him by 98342. From here, he found the records of the members sent to the southern front, trying to get some news about Xie Zhenshu.

The war did not stop, the northern line regained its strength and attacked the southern frontier again. This time, they got a few night wandering girls and Ao Yin. After analysis, they found that the command settings of these war monsters were very simple. Without the shield of Candle Yin, they could be easily cracked by the northern line system.

"They are too low-level!" The doctor chatted while examining Su Heting. "We just need to throw some jamming signals on the southern line, and they will recognize the wrong target and turn around to kill the southern line."

Su Heting moved his arms, but did not answer. He looked out the window, and before he knew it, summer had arrived.

The doctor said: "This time we won a small victory, they have no new tricks, the next thing is to break the candle shadow—"

Su Heting fastened the buttons, stood up and said, "It's time for me to go to work."

He walked out in the doctor's regretful voice and went to the laboratory. Robot 3366 gave him the experimental waste, which was some scrapped experimental data, which needed to be cleaned up.

Su Heting took the data away, and at night, he would connect his computer to the cross star—the semi-finished product left over from 36810.

He intends to make the cross star an adjuster that can be disassembled in the virtual space, so that it can automatically store the user's consciousness in times of crisis, so that the user can leave in time.

This thing was made for Xie Zhenshu, but Su Heting didn't know when he would see the officer again. The process was very slow and he had to hide it from all eyes.

At the same time, he bypassed Artemis, added a new design to District 14, formulated the slogan symbolizing that District 14 is a false world as "run out of the glass", and hinted at the experimental body through telephone calls, advertisements and even games. But unfortunately, none of the subjects responded to him.

The northern line seems to be stumped by the candle, the Civil War continues, time flies, and it will be 2162 in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Su Heting came to the laboratory. As usual, he opened his mechanical box and prepared to enter the 14th area.

Robot 3366 slid over to him, saying, "We've got something new."

Su Heting adjusted the temperature and asked, "What do you mean?"

3366 pointed to the giant bottle hanging above the mechanical box. Said: "You can wait online for a long time now."

Su Heting said: "No need, I have to go back to play games after get off work."

The mechanical box was closed, he rested his head on the electrode, and there was something bad in the countdown sound of the system. But he didn't have time to think about it, because his consciousness had already started to spin.

This time the loading seems to be extraordinarily long.

three two…

Su Heting silently counted the numbers several times, and felt the long-lost dizziness under a strong pressure.

"Ding-"

[At three o'clock in the morning, 7-006 woke up at home. He had just experienced a war, was injured, and was recuperating. 】

Su Heting opened his eyes suddenly, his head was dizzy. He sat up and found himself sleeping on the couch with some potato chips scattered around him.

Then the phone rang.

Su Heting connected and said, "Hello?"

On the other end of the phone was Fu Chenghui's voice, and he said, "You have a new mission."

Su Heting scratched his messy hair, he raised his head and looked at the mirror on the wall, the figure inside was blurred. He struggled to recall, but found that he could not remember anything.

I'm 7-006.

This sudden concept crowded his head, he thought.

Yes, I'm 7-006, and I'm recuperating from the war.

So he replied, "Oh."

Fu Chenghui said: "You want to monitor a person in the parking area."

Su Heting asked: "Who is it?"

Fu Chenghui said: "Yan Junxun."

It was raining outside the window, Su Heting hung up the phone. He walked to the window with his slippers on and saw the night in the light track area. Those lights projected across the sky like cannon fire. He rested his chin, stared at the light, and began to think—

and many more.

What battle am I fighting? Why don't you have any impression.
