Cyber Heroes

Since Dai Jiutai'a was already deep in thought when Xiang Shan struck his last sword, and could not even restrain his emotions, he did not notice anything wrong with Xiang Shan's use of the sword.

If he was still calm, the loud noise caused by the collision of the phonon knife and the Apennine prosthetic body would make him feel "wasteful".

The phonon knife does not need to be used this way. Just a slight knock can destroy the crystal structure and cut through the armor.

Xiangshan cut through it like this. After breaking through the armor, he also cut through a lot of "non-crystal" things including wires, silicone, and biological tissue.

It's not that it can't be cut. After all, the blade of the phonon knife is also a "hard crystal with an edge."

However, this in itself will cause wear and tear on the blade of the phonon knife, greatly reducing the life of the weapon.

Xiangshan still doesn't want to expose the true identity of this weapon. In order to cover up this, he cut it with force when swinging the sword.

Rather than worrying about the blade, he was still more concerned about whether he could escape now.

After cutting open the piece of prosthetic body that was connected to the flesh, Xiangshan shook his hand to shake off the remains adhering to the sword, then sheathed the sword and prepared to break out.

During this process, Xiangshan habitually took another look at the prosthetic body that he had cut open.

For Cybermen, "being split in half" still doesn't mean death. As long as the wiring is well laid out and the mapping is done well, you won't have any trouble even if the brain is not in the center of the prosthetic body.

Some prosthetics deliberately place the brain in some relatively remote parts.

In the early years, there were knights who suffered losses because they were unable to escape the shackles of natural human cognition, and were killed in a favorable situation.

However, Xiang Shan was stunned.

That prosthetic body... is very weird.

Its lower body is almost entirely made up of biological tissue, and it also has an unusually developed digestive system. The digestive tract occupies almost 80% of the body cavity, and there is no diaphragm to distinguish the thorax and abdomen. Its lungs are a group of respiratory semipermeable membranes connected to an air pump. The heart is simply a blood vessel made of artificial muscle fibers.

This is not a human body, but a human-shaped biological fermentation tank.

Designed solely for digesting food.

The semi-digested chyme flowing on the ground made Xiangshan feel sick for the first time in a long time.

But Xiangshan didn't see the brain.

The head of this thing only has a cell-cultured tongue. In addition, the entire head is filled with various electronic components.

There is simply no room for a brain.

"Is this... a trap?"

Xiangshan's mind was racing, and he immediately thought of things from the past era.

That was perhaps when chivalry first appeared.

In order to avoid assassination by knights, the tyrants and their minions will prepare complete substitutes. These avatars are either directly connected to their brains, or are completely controlled by independent AI, pretending to be the assassination targets themselves.

Xiangshan has seen some wild roads. There was a rich man who installed his biological brain under the seat of his explosion-proof car and controlled the prosthetic body to socialize.

However, for long-distance controlled prosthetics, an EMP will reveal their true colors. The body controlled by AI can easily be "flawed" by accomplished knights.

- Is this some kind of technological advancement? Is today’s AI capable of controlling prosthetic bodies and performing “performances” that even I can’t see through?

——Or, the reason why this guy was connected to the Internet just now was because his brain was nearby and needed to be controlled?

Such thoughts flashed through Xiangshan's mind. ,

But this has nothing to do with him.

Missing a single hit and escaping thousands of miles away, this is the code of the knight.

Since the operation has gone wrong, the most important thing now is to escape from the enemy's base camp and find a place to regroup.

Xiang Shan thought so, pulled off several bombs hanging on his body, turned around and ran towards the gate.

In the light of the fire, he quickly approached the exit of this floor.

At this moment, the city's military had noticed the Methodist Building. If he dares to leave from the outer wall, he must be prepared to receive anti-aircraft missiles in his face.

However, at this moment, a wall near the gate suddenly shattered. Then, a long whip flew out from inside and rolled towards Xiangshan like an anaconda.

Xiangshan lowered his body and then kicked the whip in the middle. As a weapon like "whip", all its destructive power is at the end. As long as you control this thing...

But the next second, Xiangshan paid the price for the knowledge that he had not completely updated.

The long whip folded in the air like a living thing, and the protruding section was right on top of Xiang Shan's toes. Xiangshan was lifted up by this powerful force, his entire posture was destroyed, and he was forced to roll around on the ground.

The thing in front of you looks like a whip, but it is actually a "prosthetic" with a special shape. The inside is completely intertwined with electric fibers, and the entire whip is made of electronic muscles, full of power.

In extreme force tests, this long whip can even easily break steel bars with the same cross-sectional area.

Its outer layer is wrapped with the latest cutting-edge carbon crystal material, which has a hardness close to diamond and a relatively strong humanoid shape. These tiny scales are like files and can cause effective damage to external armor.

Additionally, it can also be a charged weapon if necessary.

One stick, two sticks, three sticks...

Two pairs, a total of four long whips, waved out from the smoke.

In the era that Xiangshan was familiar with, electric fiber had not yet been so developed, so this was the first time he had seen such a flexible whip weapon. Unlike the whips of the natural man era, which were more for torture than killing enemies, every inch of this long whip can suddenly burst into power and become a deadly weapon.

The net of murderous intent woven by four scenes is hooded. He tried his best to roll and dodge towards the mountain.

Although he avoided almost all attacks, it must be said that the phonon knife was too long. The middle part of the scabbard was inevitably scratched and flew to one side.

But this sight made Dai Jiutai almost curse.

He actually didn't care much about whose hands this treasured weapon would end up in. After all, this is something that has already been given out, and the Six Dragons Sect can at best regard it as an "investment failure." The reason why he was so concerned was because he didn't want anyone to find him through that knife, and then involve the existence of the Six Dragon Sect.

And the sword that Xiang Shan used to chop Apenning just now also showed his attitude that he didn't want to reveal that the weapon was a phonon sword.

If these knights escaped from here and then moved to other places for a period of time, no one would doubt the origin of this precious weapon.

After all, some famous heroes in the world can even get better weapons.

But if he folded it here like this, then the origin of the weapon might be traced.

Therefore, at this moment, he quickly kept an eye on all the warriors.

If someone picks up the weapon on the ground with the idea of ​​"disarming the knight", then he will have to take action.

——What's more, this guy is very likely to...

On the other side, Xiang Shan had just escaped from the range of those long whips. Before he could grab his weapon, he heard a scream in the smoke: "It hurts... it hurts, it hurts! You Kill me! You cut me! It hurts so much!"

The voice sounded like a roar or a cry, but the voiceprint clearly belonged to Apenning Zhao.

"Is that a substitute just now? Is the real body here? No, why is this happening..."

"You came here to steal papers, why would you ask such low-level questions, knight?"

Another spiteful voice came from behind Xiang Shan.

Bengel stood up, supported his hands on the railing and said: "If you had come a day earlier, the sword just now would have really killed the young master. It's a pity, but it is feasible. I controlled the prosthetic body just now. It’s just a fake personality cover.”

——That word again... Fake personality covering...

——What exactly is a personality overlay? What are "truth" and "falseness"?

"It's just that the pseudo-personality cover of 'Gluttony' is still in the final debugging stage, so we haven't disconnected his biological brain from this prosthetic body yet. He doesn't even know that his brain has been transferred to another place. Gone somewhere."

"So, the sword you just struck has turned into an electrical signal through the perception of the prosthetic body, and struck the young master's spirit. A considerable part of the small network composed of his personality coverings has felt this A wave of shock.”

At this point, Bengel felt a surge of anger from the bottom of his heart: "You know what? You bastard... I worked hard to design the experiment just to eliminate the interference of uncontrollable variables and grasp all the parameters in the process of generating personality masks. .Why do I work so hard for this guy to develop different desires, why do I ask him to block social interactions, and why do I have to constantly reset his memory..."

“It’s all about controlling variables!”

"With the unplanned mental impact of your 'that sword' added to it, what else can I do with this set of data?"

Xiang Shan felt a burst of anger when he didn't come.

——You are so angry now just because of... data?

——Those "control variables" that sound cruel enough are actually commonplace to you?

At this moment, a pop-up window appeared in Xiangshan's field of vision.

It was the mysterious internal skill master who finally contacted Xiang Shan again.

[Your action failed. You mistake a false personality overlay for a target with a biological brain. The real biological brain is in the room behind Bengel. It is next to the router on this floor. 】

[But I have to remind you that you still have a quarter of an hour at most. In a quarter of an hour, more garrison troops would pour into the Methodist Building. By then, even with my help, you will be dead. 】

[Please prepare to evacuate immediately. 】
