Chapter 47 Progressive Relationships
After a series of somber laughs, the brain was disappointed to see that the two men below had barely reacted to it.
"Hey... Why don't you look surprised at all? He questioned, a little annoyed.
The string quietly rolled her eyes.
"While it's true that you're doing a decent job, don't forget that the initiative is still in our hands..... I've heard you're a psychopath, now tell me what you want? It won't be Nuka-Cola, right? ”
"You'd better figure out what you're going to say, if Dr. Goddard was standing here, he wouldn't give you a chance to talk nonsense at all, you'd be reprogrammed ....." The brain was silent for a moment, and said what it wanted.
"I can refine that information to the end... However, my last condition, which I need, and my last, is that I ask to be released from here and that I be free. Andy, who was standing drowsy with his arms folded, shook his head and stood up straight.
"What? You've become like this, what freedom do you need? You're going to be in no time if you're exposed, right? Isn't it possible for you to roll around like a ball? ..........." The brain manipulated the electronic eyes to look at Andy, and made a somewhat annoyed sound.
"Oh, damn it! You really don't know anything about science. Haven't you ever seen a robot with a resemblance to me? You can guess how that thing works, right? Andy touched his chin and remembered that there was indeed one of the robots he had fought a few times before
Instead of a detection device encased in a metal carapace, the "head" part is instead a hemispherical transparent tempered glass container filled with a brain soaked in a yellowish gel.
Those bots are always babbling gibberish when they attack, and that's impressive enough.
Before Andy could figure out why, the strings had already started to negotiate and communicate directly with the brain.
"So you're treacherous? You've promised to help us sort out the data after you've finished drinking Coke, but you've made new demands before you can finish it. Xian showed a look of disdain, she had also been exposed to the brains in the think tank before, and she had not made a good impression.
"No... You can't say that. "The brain doesn't rush to make a defense.
"Theoretically, my promise has been fulfilled, within the scope of my ability, I have completed the data collation and analysis within my ability, and now, if you need me to make further progress on this basis, I must achieve a higher level of ability.... I need a more efficient way to access information and process information.... The body frees me from this glass jar, and at the same time gives me the ability to complete this thing that you care so much about. Xian and Andy looked at each other for a moment, and for a moment they were a little unsure whether this guy was reliable or not.
Xian thought about it for a moment and decided to see if he could persuade him from the perspective of righteousness.
"You said you used to be a researcher of the New Plague, you should understand why we're finding you now, right? That's right, now that the new plague has broken out again, there are already a lot of sick people out there, and they're all dying now, and many, many more are about to follow in their footsteps..... I think from this point of view you should be more cooperative in helping us, which is also for the sake of all mankind. The brain fell silent for a moment, and after a moment gave a cold answer.
"You're wonderful, and I understand why you're in such a hurry... Even if you don't say that. But... I don't know if you can understand my position, I can't get the new plague virus anymore after I become like this, I'm not even human anymore in a sense, I know you see me that way. I don't care if the people out there are dead or alive, the people I know are long dead, and the world I know has long since turned to ashes... Even if you try to persuade me like this, I have no motivation to save the world. The blue electronic eyes moved, and uttered even more creepy words.
"I have a deep understanding of the new plague, that's for sure, you may not believe me? I can give an example, there was another person who found me before you.... At his request, I helped him to carry out a series of computational tasks on the budget of virus spread data and the simulation of strain improvement data, and although I was not a major contributor to the completion of these tasks, I was still an important participant in them. I remember the man as if he was calling himself Dr. Prester... I believe this supports my words. Andy jerked his head up and looked at his brain in shock.
"What? .... Don't you understand why he wants you to do this for him? The brain responded to Andy's question in a very negative manner.
"I guessed, but so what? .... He helped me regain my sanity and senses, and promised me to regain my freedom, so I spared no effort to help him complete those projects, but he shut me down and sealed me after the matter was over, and he didn't fulfill his promises at all.... This time, I'm sure I won't be so stupid again. ”
"How? Get me out of this broken jar that binds me, and I'll help you...."Before she could open her mouth to say anything, a voice behind her interrupted her.
"Then satisfy you!" A low, cold voice rang out from outside the door, and Dr. Goddard walked in with his hands behind his back, his eyes fixed on his brain.
"But if you exaggerate or dare to deceive, I promise you'll regret it forever...... Prester, that bastard didn't let you see the horror, I'll let you feel it all! The brain trembled slightly with some fear of Dr. Goddard, but soon observed some details that had not been noticed before.
"Oh..... I got it.... But, Dr. Goddard, I didn't notice it before, you seem to have contracted the new plague, don't you? It doesn't look like you're in great shape, I guess you're feeling bad right now, right? Those symptoms in your body can't escape my eyes..."Andy looked over to Dr. Goddard, his face did turn a little ugly, and some conspicuous blisters now appeared on the big bald head.
The brain's electronic eyes were staring at Dr. Goddard.
"Judging by the traits of those little guys, oh couples.... You seem to be infected with the most dangerous original strain, hasn't that stuff gone yet? .... It's a terrible thing, it will take less than a week for you to die in endless physical torment, like a large piece of blue coral...", he looked at the strings again.
"Wait... You don't seem to be in great shape, but why.... You're all infected with the new plague, but it looks like the virus is suppressed... Oh, I see. The electronic eye looked back at Dr. Goddard, who was a little vain in his steps, and his brain was determined.
"You used that, didn't you? Recipe C, that experimental drug...."Dr. Goddard didn't respond to a single word from his brain, but walked slowly towards the terminal, and then began to type in a few instructions.
At the same time, the brain is still chattering.
"Don't think that everything is fine with that thing, that thing can only make the virus dormant for a short time, the effect is neither long-lasting nor stable, and it is very troublesome to make.... You're already in a state where your life is hanging by a thread, get me out of here, or you'll all have to..." Dr. Goddard slammed a button, and his brain made a series of noises, and the whole brain lost its luster for a moment, and then fell silent for a long time.
"How did you feel?" He asked with a vengeful smile.
"I've been looking for something that will teach restless people like you a lesson, this little program called claustrophobia that can send you into terrible nightmares....... I'll let you out, but I'll also give you a little collar, and I want you to understand that in my eyes, you're just a tool....." The brain almost wailed and woke up.
"Oh... No, why is there such a thing ... What the hell were those fucking perverts playing in this lab in the first place.... etc.... Please don't use that again, I can't stand it, let me out, I'll obey your orders..."
