Chapter 12: Awakening
All sorts of glimpses of light circulate in front of Andy's eyes, some of which are very warm, some of which are terrifying.
He woke up from his dream, and the first thing he did was to spit out a few mouthfuls of filth.
"Ahem-ahem-" Andy coughed for a moment before looking up, realizing that he was in a fairly tidy room now.
Around the counters are some odd equipment, some aluminum trays with bone saws and morphine-x, while themselves lie on a table, similar to specimens ready for dissection .... And there was indeed a jar in the corner of the room with a specimen, and in it was a complete human corpse.
He tried to climb off the table and saw several test tubes on a small cart next to him, containing some purple liquid.
When I got up, I was dizzy. On the beep boy, the vault boy is now darkened, indicating that Andy is still in a state of mild radiation poisoning, if according to the last impression in his memory, the radiation he suffered may not only cause mild poisoning, but someone must have treated him to help him clear the radiation.
"What's going on.... Anyone?!! Andy shouted, and there was a crawling sound outside.
A large, brain-controlled robot moved in from the outside, taller than Andy, a giant steel barrel with tracks.
at
The "overhead" position, in addition to an opaque black container, is equipped with some complex electronic components, making its head several times larger than that of a normal brain-controlled robot.
Two robotic arms with clamped hands at the end squirmed slightly in the air like octopus tentacles, and its blue electronic eyes looked at Andy as he sat up from the dissecting table.
"Oh. Are you awake dear~" Andy got goosebumps at this scream, looking at the huge tin can in front of him, he couldn't pronounce the word.
"What?! Who are you? The brain-controlled robot let out a plaintive sigh.
"Alas~ Human beings are always tempted by the same beautiful skin, and they can't see the interesting soul inside through the outside, just by changing the appearance, you can't recognize me?" A small projection probe pops out of the brain-controlled robot's forehead, and a blue light shoots out from there.
The blue light expanded in an instant into an illusory image of human size, and after a few seconds the illusory image gradually solidified, and it began to gradually become more textured and colorful.
The apparition enveloped the brain-controlled robot, disguising it as a tall woman with red hair and blue eyes, dressed in a medical-style white lab coat with a slight smile on her face.
Andy had seen it after all and knew it must be false.
"Holographic projection, right? Don't fool me with this, who the hell are you? "That
The "woman" raised her eyebrows, walked over and grabbed Andy's face.
"It's not that simple, can you feel my touch?" Andy was firmly gripped, and he was sure that it was actually the brain-controlled robot that was clamping itself with its manipulator.
"You..... Let go of it.... You robot! The woman did not relax in the slightest, but made a silent gesture with her other hand.
"Do you have a good sense of it, is this the touch of a robot? Well? You can feel my temperature, right? You can feel the softness of my skin, right? Andy's heart moved, and it really felt like a real person's hand, with body temperature, and it wasn't metal.... Why is that?
He suppressed other thoughts and struggled resolutely.
"You lied to me, it's all an illusion!" He picked up a tray and threw it at the woman's face, immediately making a metal crashing sound.
"Damn, you're rude." The woman pushed him away, but there was no trace of being hit on his face, and his expression did not change in the slightest.
Her body fluctuated for a while, and finally dissipated, returning to her previous image of a brain-controlled robot. It looks like the tray Andy threw just now hit the instrument above its head.
"You nasty thing.... Maybe some sensory stimulation will get you hooked? Another flash of blue light flashed, and then Andy's image of the previous woman reappeared in front of him, this time wearing a blood-pumping outfit that showed off her perfect body.
She walked over to Andy, grabbed Andy by the shoulder, and gestured closer to her face. Andy looked at the scene in front of him in shock, whether judging from the perspective of sound, light, temperature or smell, it was clear that it was a real woman in front of him.
He knew, however, that the face that was approaching wasn't from a woman, but from a metallic tin can robot.
When I think about it, things suddenly become terrible.
“
"Don't come here! Come here again and I'll shoot! Andy was so frightened that he pulled out his self-charging pistol to protect himself.
The woman let out an evil laugh, and with the laughter, the image dissipated again, leaving the huge brain-controlled robot from before, and the woman's voice was still coming out of its speakers, but the image was not half a bit.
"How? My latest developed technology, perfect holographic camouflage, is not only as simple as holographic projection technology, but also a fusion of repulsion field technology and mind projection technology. As long as I want, no matter how long you spend with me, you will never tell whether I am a flesh-and-blood real person or a robot, after all, one of the most important functions of the human brain is brain supplement. ”
"If I could do a little more with your brain, you'd be even more convinced." The brain-controlled robot picked up the bone saw on the side and made a cutting motion.
"Let me cut off a bit of gray matter under your cerebral cortex, a vacuum of brain resonance cavity will be more conducive to you to receive the external thought projection signals, and then cooperate with the colloidal ..... What is Falsehood? What is real? We can have a wonderful time in another world, can't we? Andy swallowed in fright, he recalled some broken memories, and for a moment he couldn't tell if he was still in a dream hallucination.
"You.... Say no more, I'm not going to allow anyone to cut my brain! Who are you? The brain-controlled robot shrugged
"Shoulder" and tossed the bone saw in his hand onto the tray on the side.
"I'm your dear Tina, aren't we old friends? Think about it, think about the time we spent playing in the playground, think about the thrills we did in the park, think about the passionate moments we had in bed...."Andy was in a trance when he heard this, as if he did have some memories related to these words in his mind, but he couldn't help but feel a burst of physiological gags when he thought that the object of those memories might actually be the huge tin can in front of him.
"Oh my God! Answer my words! Who are you?! The brain-controlled robot circled around him twice, making a few clicks, and then the instrument on his head flashed, and a different avatar appeared again.
This time, standing in front of Andy's eyes was a strange female figure in a robe with a cold and empty face, no eyes, and her hair dragging to the ground.
"I'm Diana, but I'd rather you call me Tina now, I thought I'd forgotten what I was like when I was human, but now I understand that I've always been just human. It's just that because time has passed so long, the loss of my body has made me start to forget too much, too many things.... This time I understood, I understood where my mental problems were coming from, the nameless things that had brought me to the brink of madness were instincts that I had forgotten for hundreds of years, and they were not diseases at all, and they didn't need to be cured, all I had to do was embrace them. Andy climbed down from the platform and shook his head away from the guy in front of him.
"Diana.... Or Tina, you're obviously sicker... If it is a disease, it must be cured, and I advise you not to give up on treatment. Diana's goddess expression gradually collapsed, smiling like a female ghost, and then the image was lifted, and the brain-controlled robot was still in place.
"Don't talk about these boring things, since it's your choice, I won't interfere too much. I guess you have a lot of doubts right now, right? Why don't you think about this first? Andy wiped his face and stood diagonally with the robot, still feeling a little uneasy.
"Okay, the first question I want to ask, is this robot in your body?" Diana, or Tina, pointed to the coiled helmet-like unidentified high-tech device above her head.
"How is that possible?"
