Chapter 22: Stealing a Ship with a Medical Pod
Wang Chao saw that Lily looked determined, so he pulled out his gun.
But instead of firing immediately, he had the computer evaluate the effect of his shot on Lily.
As a result, he found that his gun was too powerful to break Lily directly, and there was nothing to do with her behind.
Wang Chao turned his head and asked Ni Meow, "Do you have a less powerful gun?" ”
Nimeow: "...... Although I would love to say that you can figure it out yourself, but ...... Forget it, there's no time wasted at this time. ”
As she spoke, the decorative cabinet next to her room was retracted inwards into the wall, revealing the weapons storage room behind her, which contained three walls of weapons.
Nimeow: "I recommend this one." ”
A small pistol was grabbed by a mechanical arm and sent to Wang Chao.
Wang Chao scans the weapon, assessing its performance and damaging effect on Lily. Nimeow explained beside her: "As long as you accurately avoid the key points when aiming, you should not die." In addition, I have one on my side of the medical pod, which is for my cat. ”
Wang Chao: "You still have a cat?" ”
"Ever raised. It's a zebrador. The girl replied.
Lily asked suspiciously, "What zebrador?" ”
When she asked, Wang Chao's human-borne computer had already retrieved the answer, so Wang Chao read according to the script: "A genetically modified cat iteratively domesticated in a low-gravity environment." It is characterized by its large size, but its muscles are soft, and it is regarded as a pet cat. ”
"Wait!" Lily was shocked, "Are you going to let me into a cat cage?" ”
Nimeow: "If you don't do it, we'll throw you here, anyway, there is a water and air internal circulation system, and you can also use energy, air and water, and your feces to synthesize starch." You can stay here for ten years, and we'll pick you up when the limelight is over. ”
Lily: "I'll do it, I'll do it, I just said I'll do it!" Wait a minute, do you want to come with us? ”
Nimeow spread her hands: "Of course, it's not safe for me to stay here now, and someone will beat my idea, so I have to go together." Wang Chao also thinks it's better to have a professional hacker partner, doesn't he? ”
Wang Chao: "I didn't say that. But it does be nice to have a hacker. Then we'll have to steal a ship with a dedicated location for hackers. ”
Lily had another question mark on her face: "Hacker-only location?" ”
Wang Chao once again explained: "Yes, the strength of hackers, in addition to the technical level, is very important is the computing power. Hackers living in large pioneer sites with populations of more than 10 million will hack hosts on the local network and turn them into broilers to provide computing power.
"But most of the time, the hackers on the spaceship do not have a network, so the computing power can only be provided by the host on the spaceship. Ships with superhackers generally also have supercomputers. ”
When Wang Chao was explaining, Nimeow sent a command through the data link, so a part of the floor in the room rose, revealing the host soaked in coolant.
Nimeow: "Like this. ”
Lily looked at the host dumbfounded: "This...... Expensive, right? So you left this place and left it here? ”
"No, this place is an area that wasn't on the space station blueprints, and I've already disposed of all the records. Theoretically, it would not be possible to find this place unless the space station is disassembled. "I'm just leaving for the time being, and when the limelight is over, I'll continue to come back here to be our carefree hackers." ”
Wang Chao only learned at this time that there was no super-convenient scanning device in many space operas in this era, and the main methods of various major regimes to restrict smuggling were mainly to card the unloading end, rather than like in space operas, where the starship stopped the smuggling ship in orbit and could be caught by scanning it.
Lily looked at the host again, "So, you're going to steal a ship with this kind of host later?" ”
"Not necessarily." Nimeth spread her hands, "The main engine can be not, but the medical cabin must be there, because we have to drag the oil bottle with you, a natural person." And you happen to have injuries on your body, and you can't expect the cat's medical pod to heal you. ”
Wang Chao searched for the information of the medical cabin, and then a message caught his attention: "Wait a minute, some medical cabins themselves can provide prosthetic surgery?" ”
Nimeow: "You want to be a prosthetist yourself to implant a prosthetic body in her?" This one...... It's not impossible, in fact, many unlicensed prosthetic doctors just brush a bunch of relevant knowledge into their heads and take up their posts, and there are many such prosthetic doctors in the lower area of this space station.
"But...... It's better to find a reliable doctor for the prosthetic thing, after all, it will be miserable if an inexperienced doctor has any problems.
"There are a lot of problems with the clients of those unlicensed doctors, such as feeling phantom pain, and often seeing hallucinations, some ghost warrior chasing him."
Lily was ecstatic: "This is super cool, okay! I've seen the movie, it's called Fang Thomas. ”
Wang Chao frowned, because he had the impression that Thomas Fang was a supervillain scientist in a French comedy movie, and the actor who played Thomas Fang's nemesis in that movie was the conductor in The Tiger's Mouth, who was responsible for eating deflated all day long.
Then, Wang Chao saw the movie poster retrieved by the human-borne computer, and realized that this Fang Thomas is the transliteration of Phantom, which is literally called phantom. The Chinese version of Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid 5 calls this a "phantom pain".
Nimeow frowned and stared at Lily for a few seconds, then said to Wang Chao, "Since she likes it so much, then let's steal a spaceship that can perform prosthetic surgery." The rest of the lights will need to be stacked up in the future, anyway, the spaceships are modular now, and different modules can be put together like building blocks. ”
Hey? But, is it possible?
Wang Chao suddenly became excited, you must know that he played a game called "Starry Night", which was very poorly evaluated, but he was obsessed with building a spaceship in it, and he still liked to hang out in his spaceship after building it, not to mention how much he liked it.
He was having a good time, and Nimeow sent several alternate ships over: "I checked the ships that are now moored in the military contractor's port, and these ones meet our requirements, and they are all full of fuel. ”
Wang Chao looked at the information and the specific berthing locations of these spaceships, and said to Ni Meow: "Which ship will be stolen when the time comes." Also, it's best to get the other ships on the station virus to prevent them from chasing us. ”
"Leave it to me, there are no hackers better than me on this space station. And you, go and make a just right hole in our big star's belly and put her in the treatment chamber. ”
