Chapter 293: Mechanical Ascension

Shu Yungui nodded and said, "Yes, we know, then since you are one of Dr. Han Le's companions, why didn't you appear in this ice coffin instead of being with Dr. Han?"

Wei Zeyu struggled to sit up, but his dislocated arm couldn't support his body, Shu Yungui saw that he was struggling hard, so he reached out and pulled him up, letting him lean against the wall and speak slowly.

"We heard fights downstairs, but we weren't sure who it was, you know, in this chaotic time of war, there are always people who risk their lives to make a fortune, and there were many people who coveted the database of human consciousness in the past, and even more so at this time, I hid in the ice coffin to get rid of the thieves while they were unprepared."

"The gate on the first floor has been blocked by wind and sand, and it looks like no one has entered for at least a year, so you're staying here to stop the thieves who don't know when or when they will appear?"

Cheng Sikong didn't quite believe what he said, but the man just glanced at him lightly and continued, "Thieves won't go through the gate, they will dig tunnels, or use helicopters to fly to the roof of the building and invade from above."

"Okay, I barely believe what you're saying, but I still have a question, aren't you hiding here, won't you be attacked by the android army downstairs? I don't think you have what it takes to survive the onslaught of the android legions for so long."

Wei Zeyu laughed, his muscles pulled his shoulders in sharp pain, causing him to gasp, and said, "The android soldiers downstairs originally belonged to our research association, they are android soldiers of an independent system developed by Dr. Han Le based on the muse server, and they are still in the experimental stage, so they only perform security tasks within the research association, and when the war began, it was they who resisted the attack of the muse android army and protected us."

"You're saying those androids downstairs are actually there to protect you?" Shu Yungui's eyes sank and asked, "Does General Ake know about this situation?"

Wei Zeyu shook his head and said, "How do I know? Don't tell me everything that has been said and what hasn't been said between husband and wife?"

Shu Yungui and Cheng Sikong glanced at each other, the matter of having self-protecting android soldiers in the building of the Research Association can be big or small, if General Ake doesn't know about this matter, it's okay to say, but if he knows about this matter but doesn't tell them in advance, then his behavior is to push Shu Yungui and them into danger.

Jian Fangrong and Tang Yue were both injured because of this, if it weren't for Shu Yungui's ability to replicate the medical anomaly, he would have to sacrifice his life in this building.

"Judging from the current situation, you are actually capable of protecting yourself, and the Muse's android army has not managed to break in, if I am right, Dr. Han Le and another researcher should still be alive, right?"

"There's no difference between being alive and dying here."

Wei Zeyu lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "The entire network of Alpha Star has been cut off by the muse, and the data of the database cannot be transmitted, so we can only defend here, but the reinforcements can't come at all, and the food in the building has already been eaten, and we can only dig up some mice, earthworms, and beetles...... Then these creatures are gone, and in order to survive, in order to keep the database, we can only ......."

His eyes looked at the ice coffin, and although he didn't continue, a chill still rose from everyone's body.

In the android research building, apart from androids, the most remaining corpses are corpses that have just undergone human consciousness extraction.

There are thousands of such compartments in the entire three-layer human consciousness extraction place, and there is at least one ice coffin in each compartment, this kind of ice coffin is fully automatic sealing, once closed, a vacuum will be formed inside, and the extremely low temperature inside can be maintained without power supply, and it is not impossible to describe it as a large refrigerator.

It's hard to imagine how these three researchers ate their first bite of human flesh, the big difference between humans and animals is that humans rarely feed on their own kind, and in human minds, it seems that they have an innate psychological barrier to eating their own kind, and they will never come to this point unless they are forced to do so.

Although he knew that everything was a last resort, cannibalism was still a terrifying enough thing, Tang Yue's throat twitched a few times, covered his mouth and began to retch, Jesus patted him on the back, shook his head and said, "Tsk, human beings are really weak, if."

It doesn't matter if you don't eat for a cyborg."

"I didn't see you eat less."

Cheng Sikong turned his head to Wei Ze and said, "Although it is very difficult, you have kept the hope of mankind, and now that the reinforcements have arrived, we are going to leave the Alpha Star with you and all the human electronic consciousness data, so don't waste time, hurry up and take us to find the other two researchers."

"I do."

Wei Zeyu said angrily, "Shouldn't you have connected my arm first?!"

This kind of small injury like a dislocation doesn't even use the ability of medical deformation, Shu Yungui "clicked" twice and took his arm back, Wei Zeyu's body was already very weak, Tang Yue gave him a packet of energy supplements, and it was only then that the man regained his mobility.

He took Shu Yun to return to them upstairs, and said as he walked: "Human beings are indeed very weak, I have been engaged in the research of androids for so many years, in fact, many times I have also wondered whether it is better to live as a human or to live as an android."

"And did you come to a conclusion?" Shu Yungui asked.

"Not yet."

Wei Zeyu leaned against the wall, slowly went upstairs, and said, "I have always believed that humans are superior to bionic humans, and no matter how advanced artificial intelligence is, it is just something created by humans."

"But when I'm trapped here and screaming every day, I often look at those human consciousness extractors in a daze, in fact, as long as I carry out consciousness extraction, I can leave here along the muse network, and the muse will arrange a new body for me and give me a way to live."

"But you didn't choose to do that in the end, can you tell me what kept you going?"

"What else can it be because of...... Wei Zeyu sneered and gritted his teeth, "Because Lao Tzu really doesn't want to be a fucking mechanical puppet!" Look at the book

His body was very weak, but his tone was sonorous and powerful, and everyone who followed him was stunned for a moment, and they all looked up at him, looking at his cheeks flushed from excessive exertion and his hands clenched into fists, and from his rickety body it seemed that a spine stood up to the sky.

Shu Yungui stretched out his hand to help him and stabilized his swaying body.

As if waking up from a big dream, Wei Zeyu suddenly quieted down, his chest rose and fell deeply a few times, and then he finally shook his head and said to himself: "I'm telling you what to do, the vast majority of people in this world are eager to change into bionic bodies as soon as possible, after all, machines are immortal."

"Immortality doesn't appeal to us."

Shu Yungui took a step forward, stood on the same step as Wei Zeyu, raised his lips and chuckled, "You may not believe it when you say it, what I am doing now is to help billions of human beings die smoothly."

Wei Zeyu's eyelids jumped, and he was surprised, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"This is not nonsense, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, our human beings there are suffering from the invasion of malignant genes, and they can't even make their own decisions about death, and what I am pursuing is to eliminate malignant genes and put the right of life and death back into their own hands."

Wei Zeyu couldn't understand what Shu Yungui was saying, he looked at Shu Yungui with his eyebrows twisted for a long time, and then finally exclaimed, "You are not from Butterfly Nebula?!"

Shu Yungui laughed out loud and said, "I've been talking to you about Old Earth for so long, and you haven't reacted until now, it seems that excessive hunger does slow down people's reflexes."

"You! You guys...... Who the hell are you?!"

"Don't get excited, your current physical condition is easy to faint when you are excited."

Shu Yungui hurriedly explained, "I said that we came to save people for General Ake, maybe you don't know much about General Ake, so do you know Mei Fei? It's Dr. Han Le's daughter, and this rescue operation is more or less a sight of her face."

"Mayfei?"

Wei Zeyu was surprised, "Dr. Han Le said that Mei Fei has been sent out of the Butterfly Nebula...... How could it be ......?"

"The parents are here, not far away, and the daughter misses her parents and always has to come back."

Shu Yungui made a "please" gesture forward, and said, "Now you can put down your guard belt

Have we gone to see Dr. Hanle?"

Wei Zeyu didn't say much, and took Shu Yungui and they hurriedly went up to the fifth floor, and at the staircase, they saw another female researcher looking down anxiously, and saw Wei Zeyu going upstairs with a group of strangers, and was so frightened that he immediately wanted to escape, but was caught by Cheng Sikong with "coordinate rewriting", and asked her with a smile, "Where are you going?"

The female researcher was not very old, but she was very conscious, and she covered her ears and shouted, "Doctor, run! I'm holding them back!"

A figure in the depths of the corridor hid in the room, and Shu Yungui chased after him with a flash of blue light, leaving Cheng Sikong to grab the female researcher's shoulder with one hand and touch her ear with the other.

The voice just now didn't look like he had been hungry for a long time, Cheng Sikong's eardrums were tingling, and he asked angrily, "Do you girls like to scream like this? Zhu Xinyue is like this, Shu Xin is like this, and you are also ......."

Where did the female researcher have the heart to listen to him, and raised her hand and slapped him!

Cheng Sikong obviously didn't take the girl's slap power to heart, after all, he had tried the strength of the violent Lori Zhu Xinyue, and there should be no woman in the world with more strength than Zhu Xinyue.

But the slap that came over with a surging energy made Cheng Sikong's eyes glaze off, raised his hand to hold her arm, and with a twist of his footsteps, he locked the female researcher's throat from behind, and saw that he was about to smash someone to the ground, but Wei Zeyu exclaimed: "Don't, don't! Don't hit her!"

The back of her head was only one centimeter away from the ground, and the female researcher was so frightened that she burst into tears, and her hands were tightly clinging to Cheng Sikong's arms, and only then did he realize that it was actually a pair of metal arms.

"Androids?"

Cheng Sikong raised his eyelids and looked at Wei Zeyu, and said coldly, "Aren't you unwilling to be mechanical puppets?"

"She's different! You let go first!"

Wei Zeyu rushed up and broke Cheng Sikong's hand, and the female researcher shrank into his arms in fear, but Wei Zeyu rolled up her sleeves and showed Cheng Sikong a pair of male metal arms on her arms that were not suitable for her.

"In order to protect the data, her arms were shattered by the muse's android army, and in order to save her, I removed two arms from the android and put them on her, otherwise she would have died of blood loss."

Wei Zeyu glared at Cheng Sikong, and said with anger: "The transformation operation was done in this building, there are no medical conditions, even so, she did not accept the extraction of human consciousness, can this be regarded as a mechanical puppet?!"

There was silence all around, except for the low cries of the female researcher.

Cheng Sikong blinked and walked towards the depths of the corridor, and when he passed by Wei Zeyu, he paused in his footsteps, lowered his head and said softly.

"I'm sorry."
