"Shhh

Seeing Xiang Hongbin like this, Wang Tao gasped.

When he was at the Mizusawa base before, Xiang Hongbin was almost eaten by zombies in order to protect everyone. After Wang Tao rescued him from the zombie's mouth, half of his body was left.

Although Wang Tao used various drugs to revive Xiang Hongbin, Xiang Hongbin also became completely disabled, and may need inhibitors for the rest of his life......

Xiang Hongbin has a tough personality, if it is in peacetime, although he is unwilling, he can also accept the fact that he is a cripple, after all, he has protected so many people, it is worth it.

But now is the end of the world, there are dangers everywhere, and he, a cripple, can only become a burden to everyone, and he can't accept that he is a burden. If it weren't for Wei Zhenguo who had been comforting him and encouraging him, it is estimated that he would have to find a zombie and die together. But even so, Xiang Hongbin couldn't bear it anymore.

When Wang Tao saw Xiang Hongbin again, he decided that he must find a way to regain hope for Xiang Hongbin.

It is impossible to completely cure Xiang Hongbin, at least in the current situation. So Wang Tao thought about whether he could let Xiang Hongbin recover his combat strength.

At that time, at the Wuyang military base, Wang Tao 3D printed a set of prosthetics for Xiang Hongbin. This set of prostheses allows him to move normally and has a certain combat effectiveness. But after all, it is not tailor-made and customized, so it can only be regarded as "usable".

Xiang Hongbin is quite satisfied, at least he is no longer a waste.

But Wang Tao was not satisfied, because he knew that he could do better, but because they did not have relevant professionals, there was no way to make better. He knew that Xiang Hongbin didn't want to be left behind.

By chance, after coming to the Changhe base and seeing those advanced weapons and equipment such as power armor and crystal energy equipment, Wang Tao wondered if he could ask the research institute to customize a set of prosthetics for Xiang Hongbin.

The people at the institute are professional, and what they tailor is certainly much better than the standardized prosthetics that are printed by the machine.

It just so happened that Wang Tao met Qu Shilin, a technical expert, again, so he asked Qu Shilin for help, money is not a problem.

Qu Shilin was very interested when she saw Xiang Hongbin, and was willing to help even without taking money.

Although I feel that Qu Shilin's performance is a little unreliable, there is a feeling that Xiang Hongbin is a guinea pig. But after all, she is a normal person, she knows what she can and can't do, plus she used a lot of things made by the Hope Institute before, Wang Tao also trusts the Hope Research Institute, so the two hit it off, and Xiang Hongbin went to the Hope Research Institute.

After that, Wang Tao never saw Xiang Hongbin again, and Qu Shilin said that it was more troublesome and would take a lot of time. But she promised that it would be completed before the Chinese New Year.

Although Wang Tao didn't know, it was just a set of prosthetic limbs that were tailor-made, and it took so long to forget it, why did Xiang Hongbin need to stay in the institute and cooperate all the time...... But this is a good thing after all, and Xiang Hongbin agreed, and Wang Tao didn't ask much based on his trust in Qu Shilin.

Calculating the time, Xiang Hongbin has been in the institute for two months.

In the past two months, a lot of things have happened, Wang Tao almost forgot Xiang Hongbin, and now he finally sees people.

And after seeing the real person, Wang Tao finally knew why it took so long, and needed to cooperate with Xiang Hongbin.

He and Xiang Hongbin's idea at that time was that they could get a set of prosthetics that were tailor-made and preferably had some combat ability.

Can ...... now It's all metal transformers!

However, it seems reasonable to say that these modifications are prosthetics......

In the past, Xiang Hongbin gave people a pitiful and tragic feeling, and at first glance he was a person with a very story, which made people cry.

And now Xiang Hongbin is simply a tough guy, horror, sense of security, technology and other complex feelings are intertwined. Not only does he have a story, but he can also slap you into an accident!

I have to say that Xiang Hongbin at this time is really handsome!

Thinking of Xiang Hongbin, who was transformed in this way, it took two months, Wang Tao didn't think it was a long time now, but he felt that it was very short.

Even if he didn't see the specific ability, just looking at these machines that grew with his body, he knew that this was not an easy thing.

Hope Institute is awesome!

"Wang Tao?"

When Wang Tao sighed in his heart, Xiang Hongbin suddenly shouted.

After Xiang Hongbin was seriously injured, his voice also became hoarse, and his speech was like glass rubbing, which was very uncomfortable to listen to. And now, Xiang Hongbin's voice is also clear and normal. Although it's still not as good as the original sound, and even has a little bit of electric sound, it's much better than before. And this voice goes well with his look...... Not to mention, it's quite appropriate.

"Old Xiang! Congratulations on rebirth! ”

Wang Tao laughed and stretched out his arms and walked over.

Click-click-

The various organs that fixed Xiang Hongbin were put away in turn, and Xiang Hongbin took a slow but firm step by step, stepping down from the high platform.

"Reborn...... It seems that it can indeed be called reborn......

Xiang Hongbin muttered to himself, and then hugged Wang Tao fiercely.

After being hugged, Wang Tao suddenly grinned a little, fortunately he had good physical fitness, otherwise this hug would not have been able to directly break his ribs.

"Xiang Hongbin, you have too much strength! You get acquainted with the power first! ”

Qu Shilin hurriedly yelled, and then ran over and dragged Wang Tao out of Xiang Hongbin's arms.

"Are you alright?"

"Haha, thank you for your concern! It's okay! ”

Wang Tao laughed.

"Whew...... That's good! ”

Qu Shilin patted her chest as if relieved.

"Ahem, excuse me...... Somewhat unfamiliar......"

Xiang Hongbin scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and a sound of metal grinding sounded in the back of his head.

"Let's try it first!"

Qu Shilin took Wang Tao, Xiang Hongbin and a group of researchers to the test site next door.

She asked Xiang Hongbin to test some of the projects while other researchers recorded and analyzed them. She briefly explained Xiang Hongbin's situation to Wang Tao.

The first time she saw Xiang Hongbin, she felt that Xiang Hongbin was a good seedling to experiment with "prosthetics".

Before the end of the world, this kind of prosthetic equipment had actually been made, and the technology was fine. However, due to the limitations of materials, energy and other issues, there is still a lot of room for improvement...... So not to mention mass production, even customized ones can't be used.

And after the end times, the Hope Institute inherited this valuable data and felt that this thing was very suitable for the environment of the end times, so it decided to continue this research. At this time, the crystal nucleus appeared, allowing them to research the crystal energy technology, and the appearance of various monsters brought a lot of strange materials...... This makes up for the lack of energy and materials.

Now that the technology, the energy, and the materials are there, the prosthesis will definitely make a big difference.

In their vision, this prosthetic device is different from ordinary prosthetics, which are two separate individuals from the human body and the device. The prosthesis cannot move alone, and needs to be driven and controlled by other parts of the body.

For example, the robotic arm that Wang Tao picked up from the airdrop before, although there is an extra hand out of thin air, this hand also needs to be controlled by a person through a remote control - that is, you must have a movable hand. If it is cut into a human stick, then if you want to control the robotic arm, you may have to rely on voice......

And this prosthetic body is different, before it is used, it is independent, but after use, it is integrated with the body and is one!

You don't need any buttons to control these prostheses, you just need your brain to be normal, and you need to use your brain to control it. It's like your body!

And this can be dismantled, replaced, repaired, theoretically speaking, as long as the brain is still there, that is, no matter how seriously injured, it can't die!

If the prosthetic body can be popularized in human society, the combat effectiveness of human beings can be greatly improved, and there is no need to even be afraid of the zombie virus! It's completely hard to fight zombies, and zombies are estimated to be just right!

Of course, these are theoretically feasible, but there are still many difficulties to overcome in practice.

There are two of the most difficult points, and these two points are not the prosthetic equipment itself.

The first problem is the problem of users.

Because the prosthesis is to fuse itself and connect its own nerves, after experiments, it was found that in the process of fusion, the user needs to have strong physical fitness and willpower!

If the willpower is not strong enough, there is no way to fuse at all. Even if it is forcibly fused, there is no way to control it. And there will be various side effects, which are not as good as ordinary prostheses. If the physical fitness is not strong enough, it may burp directly in the process of fusion......

This problem is caused by their lack of technology, and if they are given time, they can solve it. But what is missing now is time...... So they need some people with disabilities with strong physical fitness and willpower to do the test.

It sounds like there should be a lot of such people, after all, it is the end times. But in reality, this kind of person is not easy to find.

Because in the last days, especially in the early days, there is no such thing as serious injury. Not to mention being seriously injured, it is a small cut scratched by a zombie, and in a few days, it will be infected and mutated and die......

For quite some time, there was only a difference between "no injury" and "death". Injury is the same as death.

Although because of the subsequent establishment and development of the base and the improvement of medical treatment, many wounded and disabled people have also been saved. But ordinary people with disabilities can't do it, you have to have a very strong physical fitness and willpower, which is difficult to find......

When I saw Xiang Hongbin at that time, I was in that tragic situation...... Qu Shilin didn't know how he survived at all!

This can survive, willpower must be no problem, and Xiang Hongbin himself is a soldier with a third-order ability, and his physical fitness must be up to standard.

As it turns out, it does.

In all kinds of painful experiments, although Xiang Hongbin couldn't keep silent, at least he could resist it. Far from being comparable to those who have experimented before......

As for the second problem, it is the fusion between the prosthetic body and the person, the prosthetic body and the liquid.

If a person is missing a hand, the difficulty of crafting and fusing a robot is "1". If he is missing two hands, the difficulty of fusing the two manipulators is not "2", but "3" or even higher!

To put it simply, the more places the body is transformed, the more difficult it is to fuse, and the lower the probability of wanting to fuse them all.

In Xiang Hongbin's situation, there was no way to accept so many transformations. It's not a question of whether he has strong willpower, it's a question of how much he can't reach it.

Qu Shilin's previous idea was to take her time, first fuse one hand, then fuse one foot, slowly experiment and improve, and she will always succeed. The only bitter person may be an experimenter like Xiang Hongbin. Although it is not life-threatening, it is really uncomfortable to test again and again......

But sometimes luck is so good - Wang Tao opened a [Fourth-Order Weapon Iron Beetle]!

When others see this kind of weapon, they naturally want to enhance their own combat power. When the people in the research institute saw it, they felt that this thing was interesting, it was a bit similar to the prosthetic body they developed, except that one was fused with itself, and the other was semi-fused; One is based on mechanical technology, and the other is based on biotechnology...... Can't you learn from that?

The institute took a fancy to the iron beetles at the town hall.

So after a tug-of-war, the iron beetle in the town hall came to the hands of the research institute. Qu Shilin didn't elaborate on what agreement they reached, but she thought that she should have paid a lot to come to the institute.

After getting the iron beetle, the institute began to study day and night.

Then they succeeded in arming the state of the iron beetles...... Demolished! And then it can't be put back......

But the harvest was great, and they managed to combine their mechanical technology with some of the iron beetle's biotechnology! In addition, the complementarity and coordination of crystal energy technology...... Xiang Hongbin is their latest product!

"Xiang Hongbin still has a lot of flaws. For example, we didn't feel exactly like our original body as we expected...... There's also a certain 'delay' in using it, a bit like controlling an iron beetle...... The appearance is not exactly the same as that of a human - let alone identical, and the shape is more like power armor than a human...... Anyway, there are still a lot of problems......"

"But I also believe that in the future, we will make better prosthetic bodies until they are no different from human bodies. It has even become the legendary only one head left - no, it should be to the extent that only one consciousness is left to survive! ”

Qu Shilin's eyes sparkled a little.

"I'm sure you can do it!"

Wang Tao nodded seriously.

He sincerely hoped that Qu Shilin could do it. To be honest, for him, since he saw the power armor, the level of technology in the end times has exceeded his cognition, and no matter what outrageous things are researched in the future, he is not surprised.

"Thank you!"

Qu Shilin happily hugged Wang Tao, and then continued:

After talking about the origin of Xiang Hongbin's body, the next thing is strength. For details, you can see the test ......"

"I don't dare to say anything else, but I don't think there are many people who can match his physical fitness. If you combine it with various weapons...... He has the power of the Awakened! ”

"But he has a small flaw, and that is that he has to consume crystal nuclei ......"
