Chapter 2205: Exploring the Trail of Sha Lan (43)

At the same time (?), Egypt, Africa, on the outskirts of Aswan, inside the "Shalan Gorge".

"How?" asked Palamides.

"The level of vigilance has increased significantly. Di Geng put down the binoculars in his hand and continued to hide in the exit of the vent, "Their system must have sensed that Dr. Virgil had left the surveillance room, so they raised the alert to this level." However, the alarm was still not triggered, and all the androids used for security were concentrated near the factory, so what was the plan? ＂

"The escape route for employees has long been closed, and breaking through the front of the factory is the only way to escape. Virgil, the troll behind the two, snorted, "The system should have expected that I would be kidnapped and taken away before I managed to escape, so I kept this hand." ＂

"Or maybe the academy had expected you to betray them. Palamides threatened in the thick voice of the Blade, "...... In any case, we can't escape without breaking through here head-on. Anyway, my mission is to destroy this factory and paralyze all the security forces in the factory. I'll be with you. ＂

"Now that I've got the materials I want to take, it's time for the after-show. The bald man in sunglasses sorted out the equipment in his hand, and he seemed to have brought a lot of * just to deal with this situation.

However, what an exaggerated lineup. Palamides also held up his binoculars and took a look. The factory, which was obviously relatively empty just now, with only three or four patrols, was now occupied by at least twenty second-generation android guards. Based on a team of three, there were at least sixty people in that big factory, and not counting the guards hidden in every corner. In addition to the facilities for the manufacture of third-generation androids, there are also many shelves with unidentified materials stacked in the factory. What lies behind the shelves, Paramidis can't tell the whole story just by looking at it this way.

"Anyway, Mr. Silverwing, let's divide up and work together. "Dugense gave Palamides six*: "The turrets that dot the factory ceilings are the most dangerous, they have the highest ability to detect them, and they are the easiest to expose us." So I'm going to use poison arrows with nanocomputer viruses to paralyze those turrets one by one. But once the turret breaks, it will inevitably cause the androids to be on the alert, and they will scatter and look for cover everywhere, and their positions will be chaotic. When the time comes, no matter how much thunder is thrown, it will not be able to exert the maximum power of *. ＂

"So, you're going to let me cooperate with you, and let me drop mines in the densest enemy areas while you open fire to destroy the turrets?"

"That's right. Di Geng nodded: "This is a special electronic interference*, which is only effective against the second generation of androids, and their explosion range is only about five yards in radius. If used wisely, it can help us cut the number of enemies in half. If you don't use it well, it's just a waste of resources. ＂

That's why I gave Palamides six*? The big cat thought to himself. Dee brought at least thirty* of them, but only gave Palamides a fifth of them, less confident in the accuracy of the Blade Monster Trere.

That's fine. Wait a minute, Palamides will prove Di even more wrong with his actions. Anyway, with silver* to keep a distance to fight, he also began to get used to it. How could it be difficult for him to stop him.

"Then you worked hard. Dr. Virgil obediently cowered in the narrow ventilation duct (it's hard to imagine how this guy's massive body could be retracted into the ventilation duct, but this guy's body is softer than it looks!) and waved his hand.

"Hey, you want to be free, but you don't mean to help at all?" the big cat couldn't help but complain.

"Stupid. There's no way I'm going to help you. Don't forget that there are also college monitors all over the house, and every move we make is recorded. Well, although there won't be one in the vents. That's not the point. Anyway, although I agreed to go with you, I never agreed to help you deal with the Academy. If the Academy's footage from the cameras saw me fleeing, it would at best think that I had been abducted by force from you. But if I help you attack the cyborg guards, the Academy will know that I have betrayed them. What about the serum that made me turn back into a human form? Who can guarantee that the academy won't destroy it in a fit of rage?"

"Got it, got it. It's really long-winded. Palamides said perfunctorily, he had never known that Virgil was such a verbose fellow. But these scientists are usually weirdos. "Then you can hide on your own and wait for our signal before acting. ＂

"That's what it sounds like. Dr. Virgil replied selfishly.

"Anyway," Paramides asked curiously, after seeing roughly the number of troops in the workshop, "what are the boxes on those shelves?"

"Why do you want to know that?"

"For combat purposes, of course. Palamides casually made up a reason: "You see...... Knowing what's inside has a lot of benefits for the rest of the fight. If the boxes contain hard objects that can't be pierced by bullets, those shelves and boxes are reliable cover. Conversely, if they are*, we'll have to stay away from them, and we can even rely on the explosion of the crate to kill a lot of enemies. ＂

"I see, it's really in line with the idea of the big hero Blade Monster, and you should be fully prepared before the battle. Di said with a slight sarcasm.

"Tsk...... Well, I'll tell you. Virgil the Hulk didn't seem to want to say it, but when asked about it, he had to confess: "It's all [meat]." ＂

"Meat ......?" Palamides was stunned for half a second, "Meat?!...... ＂

At first, he was stunned because he didn't understand, but then he was stunned because he roughly guessed something.

"The [meat] you're talking about, is it...... Human flesh?"

"That's right, human flesh. What is there to be surprised. The third generation of androids is basically flesh and blood. Dr. Virgil pushed his round-rimmed glasses, which were a little out of shape, and which clearly did not match the shape of his troll, or whether he had forcibly modified the frames, removed the tripods, and fastened them to his head with rubber bands, and how uncomfortable they were to wear.

"The first generation of androids was the most basic metal skeleton structure. The second-generation android is based on the metal skeleton structure, covered with a layer of plastic, and even further uses [mimic outfit] to simulate humans. But all of this is a stiff structure, and it is impossible to perfectly simulate a human being, and if you want me to say something, you only need to pick up the other person's hand and pinch it a few times, and you can instantly identify whether the other party is a human or an artificial person. The troll continued, "Even if the academy replaces some of the second-generation android skeletons with wood for the sake of lightness and stealth, it won't change the fact that the second-generation androids' bodies are stiff and rough. But the third generation of androids...... They are something completely different, one could even say a whole new species. The materials used to construct the muscles and bones of the third-generation androids were all taken from living humans. After these muscle tissues are cultivated, strengthened, and injected with preservative substances, they are decomposed and reassembled in a three-dimensional printer to form artificial muscles, which can produce more than ten times more explosive power and 30 times more staying power than normal humans. In addition to the basic calcium oxide, the skeleton of the android is additionally reinforced with polymer carbon fiber, so the skeleton of the third generation of androids is lighter, harder and more flexible than the skeleton of humans, and will never be osteonecrosis. ＂

"So, you know?" said Virgil excitedly, like a child showing off his expensive toys, "the performance of the third generation of androids can never be compared to that of humans." If the [Forbidden Core] is also installed, the third-generation artificial humans have a body and a soul, and they will be no different from humans------No, above humans!"

＂...... Can I punch this guy twice?" If it weren't for the hooded face and hat, Palamides' protruding veins would have been so frightening that he would have gotten a lot of muscles.

"No, he's a troll, but he's still the same weak Dr. Virgil, and he'll die if you punch him. Di answered more cooperatively.

"So, Dr. Virgil," the Leopard Warrior asked faintly, "the boxes in that workshop are all human flesh and bones, and how many people have been killed by the Academy to get such a large amount of [crafting materials]?"

"I don't know, and I'm not interested in knowing. The Hulk didn't care: "Scientific research can't always be governed by morality." If we spend all day wondering where those human flesh and bones come from, and are blinded by guilt, then we will never be able to create such a good product as the third-generation android. ＂

"It's just a meat golem. Di Geng whispered: "No matter how much they look like people, they are always just dolls that resemble people." A golem made of flesh and bones is essentially the same as a golem made of metal and wood. ＂

"What if the human brain was suppressed on these androids?" asked Virgil suddenly.

＂...... Is it possible? That's a very complicated nerve graft. ＂

Hulk pushed his glasses, "It seems that the academy is working on this subject, and it has already achieved some degree of success. Even though this is gossip, I don't have any evidence. ＂

"That's enough!" Paramides saw that the two men were talking more and more deeply (Di was more likely to want to get information from Virgil), but completely ignored the immediate crisis, so he interrupted: "Don't talk about this kind of thing yet, can you solve the enemy in front of you?"

"Of course, man. Detective Dicken, who knew how to exercise moderation, immediately interrupted the conversation and picked up his small*: "Then, let's start fighting as soon as we get out of here." You have to cooperate with me. ＂

"Let's go!" Digin opened his invisibility device, and Palamides unfolded the optical camouflage of the Blade Monster suit, and the two of them rushed out at the same time.
