Chapter 172: Changing the battery
With the help of 139, it was much easier to figure out the structure and setup of the power plant. 139 led the way in front while introducing his "home" to Zhou Yu and Wei Ya.
The whole power plant is divided into three floors, the first floor above ground is the power unit and control tower; The second floor above ground is a rest area and a canteen; The basement floor is the cultivation base. The Metropolitan Governor stuck out his tongue, the so-called cultivation base is very different from the vegetable and fruit cultivation base, and this is a kind of person. It's terrifying.
"I said 139, and now you've sold yourself to me. Do we have three chapters of the law? β
"What is the third chapter of the covenant?" 139 stopped the track, and the 180Β° rotation direction column looked at Zhou Yu.
"I mean, set some rules. Don't mess with anything in the future, it's good for you and me. β
"Well, I'd like to hear about it."
It's so awkward.
"First, you do what I say, if you know why, you don't know why, and if you don't know why, you don't need to ask."
"Why?"
"Your uncle, didn't you say it just now? If you don't know, you can directly block, filter out, forget, and understand amnesia? β
"Oh!"
"Second, if you are asked anything, you should answer it with a quick and crisp answer, and do not hesitate to say anything, but offer it with both hands without concealment. Good no good? β
"Uh, this...
"Look, what do you say, what do you play, don't you? It's not that it's painful, don't swallow it... β
"Yes, no problem, it can be done!"
139 shouted, shaking his fuselage. On the contrary, the Metropolitan Governor was taken aback, where did I come from? Hey? Oh, the second point.
"Third, never give up, never betray. If you betray your brothers and siblings and kill each other, you will be hit by five thunders and evil spirits... β
"That... Carney, okay, got it, don't keep intimidating. 139 knew it was a bluff trick. β
Zhou Yu scratched his scalp embarrassedly, it turns out that there is still a difference between dealing with machines and dealing with people, even if it will be angry, sad, disappointed, and happy, but it doesn't seem to know how to respect its superiors, if it is allowed to be a clerk in a grassroots unit, I am afraid that it will not be able to mix with the chief clerk for ten years. What the? You say it has the strength to compete for leadership positions? Hmph, okay, is it fun to deceive yourself every day?
"Carney, could you please do me a favor?"
"Huh? Are you the boss or am I the boss? Why did you start asking for people as soon as you joined the company? Don't come here, I don't have a salary to pay you, I knew you were such a virtuous person, I might as well pick up a random one in the garbage heap just now, I might as well know you better! β
"Besides, didn't I already advance my salary?" Zhou Yu pointed to the spar in 139's hand.
"Well, I want you to replace Sisyphus for me, my piece is probably going to run out soon. IfγIf I don't teach you, and one day suddenly I die,There's no one to help you bite your balls and steal your underwear anymore.γ β
139 The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became, and he seemed very lonely. The face of the Metropolitan Governor was also a little more embarrassed, it turned out that it wanted to change the battery, and the run he had just made was a little excessive.
"Oh, that's right. Okay, you teach me, I'll learn. β
139 happily opened the iron lid on his chest and carefully explained the steps to replace it to Zhou Yu. It would cut off its main power supply when everything was ready, and the most critical part of it was that the Metropolitan had to quickly remove the old battery from a five-claw mechanism and replace it with a new one. It can't be too long, or the energy stored in its body may not be able to activate the power cycle.
That is, if the hand is slow, 139 is completely dead.
It's not a joke, it's the equivalent of an operation. Moreover, there is a high risk of failure of surgery and death. Oh no, dead robots.
Zhou Yu repeatedly compared the residual spar in the five-clawed device, which was larger than the Sisyphus in his hand, and the shape was more regular. However, looking at the thickness, corners and size, it shouldn't be a problem to replace this piece in your hand.
"Well, it's ready. Isn't it just that you cut off the power, I break the claw wire, put the stone in and fix it, and it's okay? β
"Yes!"
"Wait, don't I need to press the restart button, power button or something? Didn't you? β
"No, not as you said. To live is to live, and to die is to die. How will it be started and paused? β
"Hmm..." Then this operation is difficult, and if you fail, you will not regret taking the medicine.
"Alright, I'm ready. Come on! Zhou Yu asked Wei Ya to hold the torch closer to illuminate the "operation" scene.
With a long buzz, 139 went limp. Okay, now is it. Zhou Yu reached out to break the claw-shaped wire.
Suddenly, it was dark and I couldn't see anything.
What happened, what happened? Am I blind at such a critical moment? Zhou Yu was at a loss.
"Ka, Carney, the torches are out."
Oh, I'll go for it, when is it not good to extinguish it, but at this time, Zhou Yu has ten thousand careful, but he didn't check how long the torch can last. He hurriedly took out the fire from his chest, snapped it twice, tore off a piece of linen cloth on his body with a stabbing sound, and then wrapped it around the torch handed over by Wei Ya.
Time, rush for time.
Just there, what about the stones?
"Wei Ya, where are the stones you want to change?"
"Didn't you just hold it in your hand?"
"Yes, in my hand, flint and torches. Here it is! β
Zhou Yu, who was in a hurry, searched for a long time before finding that Sisyphus, who was about to be replaced, was placed on the outside of his right leg where he was squatting. Beads of sweat seeped out of his forehead, and at least a minute had passed, and he didn't know how long 139 had said that he couldn't cut off the power for too long.
In any case, be quick.
Zhou Yu quickly broke the wire with his hands and feet, and tried hard to move the old energy stone, but it seemed to be stuck and did not move. The Governor of the Metropolitan shouted, his thumb and middle finger stuck on both sides and moved with all his strength, and finally broke off, and both fingers were dripping with blood and flesh.
Change, quickly change. Wei Ya and Zhou Yu's hearts were counting the seconds, for fear of losing this new friend they had just gotten.
The blood-drenched Sisyphus was pinched by Zhou Yu, carefully pressed into the groove, and buckled the claws one by one.
With a thud, the Governor sat down on the ground, gasping for air. It was too nervous, the two hands were crossed together, and the muscles of the forearms were still twitching because they were too tense. The blood dripping from his fingers clicked and clicked, and after a while, he drew a landscape painting on the ground.
"Carney, you're bleeding."
"How long? Why isn't it awake yet? Zhou Yu was a little anxious, three minutes had passed since he changed the spade, and 139 did not have the slightest intention of restarting. Standing there coldly, it's just a pile of scrap metal.
"Could it be, could it be that the time has been delayed for too long."
Wei Ya voiced the concerns shared by the two. 139 repeatedly reminds them that if the redemption takes too long, it will not be able to restart, and it will really die.
Sit on the ground and wait. I don't know how long it took, but it was still eerily quiet and silent, except for the heartbeats of the two of them, there was no sound. Perhaps, it really didn't make it through.
Alas, blame yourself for not checking the torches, blame yourself for being slow for a moment. The Grand Governor let out a long sigh, got up from the ground, and dusted off his dust.
"Let's go, Via. It'sβit's not going to wake up. β
"Uh-oh, no, it will, it will wake up. Don't go, okay? Wei Ya has always been strong, until she heard Zhou Yu say that she was leaving, she handed him the torch, and she pounced on it and hugged the piece of metal.
The Governor understood her feelings, and the child's innocence was the purest. However, there was really nothing he could do. Except, patting Wei Ya on the shoulder, nothing can be done.
After crying for a while, Wei Ya wiped her red and swollen eyes, and reluctantly followed Zhou Yu to the ground floor. The slope she rolled down was so long, so long.
Crackling, crackling.
As he walked, the Governor heard the sound of firewood burning. He looked at the torch and shook his head. Subconsciously turned back and said goodbye to 139.
Goodbye, oh no, goodbye old ...
Wait, crackle, crackle.
It wasn't the torch in his hand that made the noise, but the scrap metal behind him. Not only did it sound faintly, but even its mask flickered on and off.
"Carney, look. It's 139! Wei Ya jumped up with joy, and the little swallow flew over and hugged 139. Zhou Yu also hurriedly walked over and squatted down to check.
That's right, it's it, 139 is back. He heard the clear sound of electricity in his ears, thick and powerful, like the heartbeat of a bull.
The buzz, the buzz is getting louder and louder. With a click, 139's head lampshade lit up completely. It shines like daylight all around.
"Hi, hey, hi! Don't shake me with a searchlight, okay? It's amazing to have electricity! Zhou Yu threw a "heavy" punch at 139's chest.
"Ka, Carney, did you really do it?" 139 incredulously examined his whole body components, his head buzzing.
"Hey, it's a little sinister, though. But who is Lao Tzu? Professional waiting club honorary members, do not abandon or give up chain store franchise agents, can you still save you? β
Wei Ya gave him a blank look, and she didn't know who was going to leave just now, her face was full of disappointment and loneliness. The Metropolitan Governor glared at her, and the message she conveyed was not allowed to be spoken, only you and me.
"Carney, why do I feel weird?" At this time, 139 had not yet re-fastened the alloy on his chest, and he poked his headlamp out, shining on his energy device, and the manipulator carefully explored.
"What's so strange? It's packed, it's enough for you for hundreds or thousands of years! β
"But what are these red ones?"
139 turned his head and looked at Zhou Yu and asked. The Governor craned his neck to see that it was a lot of blood stains that had dripped from himself, which had dried up and solidified around the flashing yellow Sisyphus, and there was no sense of horror at all, and it looked very delicate, like a plum blossom in full bloom.
"Oh, that's, that's my blood." Zhou Yu raised his right hand, and although the bleeding stopped, the wound cut by the stone was still vivid.
"Blood, what is it?" 139 asked, puzzled.
Zhou Yu and Wei Ya glanced at each other and shrugged their shoulders at the same time. For an underground worker who spends all year on the ground planting and cleaning, it can be very difficult to explain to him what another species' blood is.
"Blood is a person's life. When the blood runs out, the man dies. Got it? Zhou Yu summarized briefly, and then found a rag to wrap his fingers. Not to mention, I forgot to bandage it just now, so I won't get infected, right? After a while, I have to find Cleopatra and order some spirits to disinfect.
"Carney, you saved me with your own blood?" 139 slowly raised his head, a slight sadness in his tone.
"Ah, what's wrong? You're my little brother, it's normal to save some blood for you! If one day I let you charge into battle and shed blood to kill the enemy, don't forget to return me! Ha ha! Smiling, Zhou Yu strode towards the ground floor. It was just a cut of the hand, and the Governor knew that bloodshed had nothing to do with saving people.
"Carney's blood is in my heart." 139 muttered to himself, turned and accelerated to roll the track and chased after him.
"139, I have a few questions for you. Is this a power plant? Zhou Yu used the huge searchlights on 139 heads to patrol around, holding the operating table with both hands to ask questions.
"What is a power plant? This is the Imperial Power Factory, which is responsible for making fighters and providing clean energy. β
"Oh, that's it. If it's responsible for providing energy, that's right. But since it's an energy station, why can't you find a Sisyphus that can be replaced? β
"The material used to provide clean energy is not Sisyphus, but a special kind of mineral that is mined underground here. This kind of mineral soil can be used for lighting and breeding after purification, but it is impossible to obtain inexhaustible energy from it. Only Sisyphus was able to do this, and there was only one place of origin, which was the original site of the empire. β
"What kind of empire are you talking about? Does she have a name? β
"Of course there is, the Empire of Greed."
Oh, it turns out that the name of the invader is Vassal. After a thousand years, the Grand Governor finally learned her name.
"Then why did she fail? It stands to reason that you should crush the natives here with an absolute advantage? Zhou Yu was surprised by what happened during the Great War of Heaven and Earth.
"Then I don't know, 139 is set up to be responsible for cleaning, guarding and cultivating the soil here. When the breeding soil is gone, I am responsible for cleaning and guarding. Oh, just now the little girl fell, I thought it was sundries and put it on the garbage truck to be dumped! β
It's a dead eye, no wonder you're a machine and not a human! Zhou Yu glared at it and shook his head. But now what he needs to introspect about is that he was wrong at that time, 139 had no ill will towards Wei Ya, but just treated her as garbage. Without the previous preface, there would be no sequels to the windmill disintegration and emergency room stories in the back. Fate, just as the acquaintance and intersection of three people is fate.
Thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Yu felt that he couldn't ask too much of a sanitation worker, and it was unrealistic to let him think of sending himself out of Dubancia. Despite this, there is no problem in letting it reach its maximum potential, to be determined, ambitious, and determined early, we must find a way to make 139 the most machine and the most human guy in the machine.
