Chapter 51: Great Technology, Not Great People

"Walking...... Turn right...... Sit down. ”

Victor stood aside and gave orders, and the well-dressed male corpse stepped out of the cupboard, turned right to the opposite side of Donald, and then stopped automatically after his foot touched the chair, and sat down on the chair.

The movements are not very smooth, but they are not stiff either.

Donald's eyes were always on the male corpse, he had seen many undead creatures, and he had killed some of them with his own hands in the town of Red Cliffs.

The actions of those undead spirits were obviously faster and more aggressive than the corpse in front of them, but it was a disorderly, purely murderous act driven by the desire to destroy the creatures, and the so-called "corpse tools" created by Victor were more of a sense of obedience to orders.

What surprised Donald the most was that he couldn't feel the negative energy in these corpses, not even any other energy reaction.

The difference between the two is probably the difference between a beast and a mechanical golem.

"The relationship between the soul and the human body is, to me, the relationship between command and action, in short...... The soul gives commands, and the body carries out them, so it's like boiling water in our daily life, you can use wood to light a fire, or you can use a gas stove to make a fire, the point is to generate heat, as long as you can boil the water to a boil, there are many ways. ”

Arrange the inserts in the metal drawer on the table, and then say,

"I can find other ways to mobilize the bodies of the dead, and naturally I can make them a tool, and you can think of it as a mechanical doll that needs to be wound up before it can move..... This is a synonym for virtual soul energy, because I don't really use soul energy, and it would be misleading to use this term, just like this young lady just did. ”

Victor was still talking about his research, and even though the topic had deviated from his previous statement that he was going to help Donald kill Pop Salazar, the latter didn't mind hearing about this special technology now.

"Thanks to the funding of Selvette Taros, I have made a major breakthrough in technology in the past two years, taking this corpse that I named Friday as an example, by cutting open the medulla oblongata in its brain, and filling it with a carbon-zinc battery as an energy psionic injector, it becomes a usable corpse tool, and the 'clockwork' that controls it is these plug-ins. ”

Speaking of this, Victor made an inviting gesture to Donald and the two, motioning for them to come over, and Donald did not shirk and stood next to the corpse.

The back of the corpse's head did show signs of being cranioped, and around the point where the back of the head was connected to the neck, there was a cassette jack similar to the one Donald had seen in his previous life.

"Although it is not yet possible to make the corpse fully restore the consciousness of ordinary people, I can already use these plug-ins to make the corpse perform certain tasks, you can think of them as a command transceiver, as long as you plug in these plug-ins, it will perform some kind of work, such as the packaging work currently on the assembly line of some Renas factories, they are already capable of doing some of the simpler parts, and I believe that with deeper technical research and development, this state will be improved. ”

For scientists like them, the pursuit of technological improvement has become an instinct engraved in their bones like eating and drinking, and when they talk about these things, they have some gushing meanings.

Donald only found out at this time that this Victor Kenstein was a chatterbox.

Stephanie stretched out her finger and poked Donald's waist, and glanced out the window, which made it clear that Anthony and they were still waiting outside, and they didn't come up to do academic discussions.

"Mr. Victor, you have been telling me about the advantages and disadvantages of this technology from just now to now, I do not deny that your idea has great potential, and I also admire you very much for completing this seemingly impossible technology research and development, which is a great thing for today's technological revolution, but for me, it is ......"

Noticing Stephanie's reminder, Donald deliberately wanted to speed things up again.

"Wait, you're saying that this technology of mine has great potential, is it a great thing?"

Victor's emotions were suddenly a little excited, which made Donald on the other side a little confused.

"Of course, isn't this an obvious thing, if your technology research and development is successful, I think you can increase the productivity of those factories by several times, and some of the more dangerous and heavy work of the people in their daily lives can also be replaced by manpower, such technologies cannot be called great, and what other technologies are worthy of being described as great?"

In fact, Donald had already regarded Victor's technology as an existence that was exactly the same as the robot technology he had seen in his previous life or the mechanical puppet technology he had seen in Dmingham before, and the corpse tool that tirelessly repeated a certain job was similar to the machines on the assembly line.

It's just that the manufacturing process of the latter and the acquisition of raw materials are easier and cheaper, unlike the mechanical puppets in Dmingham, which can easily cost hundreds of gold pounds, which is a technology that is entirely likely to be popularized.

"Don't you think I'm desecrating corpses and destroying the existing order of life by doing so?"

Victor is not a person who is easily influenced by the outside world, but even so, after experiencing almost a wave of opposition from the whole society, he can't help but feel pessimistic about the prospects for the development and promotion of his technology.

"Didn't those assembly lines in the factories also destroy the business model of the existing handicraft workshops? Mr. Victor, as you said, this is an epoch-making technology, and if this is the case, then it will inevitably challenge the old order, and the other way around...... If we can't transcend the status quo and achieve leapfrog development, then how can this technology distinguish between the two eras?"

These were Donald's words, and although there were still some incomprehensions about corpse technology, he would not be prejudiced against it.

"I didn't expect to find someone as enlightened and visionary as you today....... Your Excellency, perhaps you don't know, in the development of this technology of mine, I have only heard similar words in the mouths of two people, one is you and the other is ......"

"Sewvett Taros, right?"

There was no need to think too much, since Victor had been working under Sewit Talos for so long, the latter naturally supported his scientific research theory.

"Yes, I thought I had found a soulmate, someone who was willing to support my research, so even though the outside world did not have a good opinion of the Talos family, I gladly joined the Talos family's laboratory. ”

"As it turns out, he's not?"

In order to prevent Victor from continuing to diverge his thinking, Donald helped him make up his mind.

"He was indeed interested in cadaveric technology, but not in the industrial revolution, but in controlling the living!"

"Huh?"

Donald subconsciously made a questioning nasal voice.

After talking about corpse technology for so long, it turns out that this technology can still be used on living people?

"I know what Your Excellency is wondering, even I was completely unaware of this situation at first, and it was only about three months ago that I discovered that Sewit Talos had actually found someone else to steal my research data and apply corpse technology to the living, trying to rely on this method to completely control some people, turning them into puppets and tools of the Talos family, and I naturally could not support this kind of behavior...... That's why it's what it looks like now. ”

Victor pointed to his shoulder, which he couldn't move freely now, and continued with some helplessness,

"Thankfully, there were many differences between the living and the dead, and my technology wasn't mature at the time, so I wasn't able to get Sewvett Talos to achieve his goals. ”

"So how are you going to help me kill Pop Salazar?"

After listening to too much information, Donald felt the need to remind Victor and bring the topic back on track.

"Since you can't do anything to Pope Salazar because this is Renas of House Taros, my solution is simple, make this our home turf. ”

As he spoke, there was a beep in the fireplace next to him, it should be a piece of wood that had burned to the twig, Donald's attention was distracted for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he heard Victor's words.

After a short silence, Donald looked at Victor, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Sewit Talos did the experiment behind your back, and you have perfected it?"

Donald was accustomed to analyzing discourse, and Victor had previously said that his technology was not mature at the time.

At that time, there is no doubt that it refers to the time when Selvette Talos carried him behind his back to conduct experiments on living people, according to the tone in which he said this, he was not mature at that time, but now he is mature?

"Yes, as much as I reject this kind of behavior, it's the best I can think of to stop him from using my research to do something nefarious...... After three months of calculations, although I have not conducted experiments on living people, I am confident that we can use this technology to successfully control Sewit Taros and put him under our control, and then the situation in Renus will naturally become favorable to us. ”

Speaking of which, Victor paused before continuing,

"Of course, there are some selfish motives in this, and I want to continue my research and thoroughly promote the results of my experiments in Renas...... Now I am a wanted criminal, and if I can't make some changes, I will die a miserable death, after all, it is not often that there are life-savers like Your Excellency. ”

"Hahaha~ I understand, as long as you can control Sewit Taros, you can rely on his power to help us kill Pop Salazar, and then continue your own experiments, and now you want to cooperate with us, in fact, you also fancy our strength and want us to help you complete this step, right?"

Donald laughed, and Victor's face also showed some joy, thinking that the persuasion was successful, who would have thought that the next moment Donald completely restrained his smile,

"Nice idea, but, I refuse!"
