Cyber Heroes

The old crab is not actually called "Old Crab". He originally had a formal name - the kind of official name that marked the Y chromosome, mitochondria and individual name.

However, that name has been abandoned by him.

The reason why he is called Old Crab is because of his prosthetic body.

According to the introduction of the unknown knight who saved his life, there was a creature in the old generation called "arthropod". Their external jaws, teeth, etc. are actually specialized "hands and feet" that evolved from the limbs of their ancient ancestors.

And the way the extra prosthetic hands under his body play the guitar look like a big crab chewing something.

So the old crab has been called this name since then.

Before that, he had changed two or three names. For him, a name is just a sign on the road of life.

This name is quite emotional.

More than ten years ago, when Old Crab was a child, he liked to listen to the radio. In this day and age, this is low-cost entertainment. Only a small amount of metal foil, magnets, and metal wires are needed to build a receiving antenna. The "sound processing plug-ins" on the Internet are actually not difficult to download.

City dwellers always have the opportunity to use some free internet. These networks may require the use of your prosthetic computing power for mining, or they may enhance the surveillance capabilities of the protectors, but in any case, they are free.

However, the prosthetics can transfer files to each other through WLAN hotspots, so there are actually not many restrictions.

Rather, it is precisely because this function has been opened up that the government can requisition other people's prosthetic bodies whenever they want.

Therefore, preprocessing plug-ins can also be circulated offline.

In his hometown, there was little enthusiasm for radio, but there were some enthusiasts.

People always have some spiritual needs. For urbanites who have access to the Internet, there are abundant resources online to entertain themselves. However, wilderness settlements may not have the conditions to build their own base stations.

In that kind of place, broadcasters naturally play the role of "satisfying other people's spiritual needs."

Old Crab Top likes to sing. After becoming a worker, he saved his income for a long time and bought a pretty good voiceprint bag.

When he has free time, he searches for ancient ballads on the Internet.

Later, he became a singer.

This is not a big accident. His wife and children died in engineering accidents. At that point in time, he had completely transformed into a prosthetic body. Reculturing nerve cells into gametocytes is expensive. He no longer had worries.

So, the old crab put on the hands that his son used in life and went around singing.

This is how he became a broadcaster.

Not a very important thing. It’s not too grand either.

Baseline people don't need much food. The old crab only needs to deploy the solar panel on his back every day, which is enough to consume the prosthetic body. If the settlement he went to allowed him to use public batteries, he could still save a lot.

As for the supplement of sugar and protein, he only needs to sing a song in every house in a small town. After all, someone will be willing to give him a bite of sugar.

That’s how easy it is for benchmark people to make a living.

He sang for more than a year and encountered Green Forest. It happened that there was a knight nearby who was listening to his radio station. The knight searched for luck and rescued him.

The knight gave him internal and external skills. This is not a particularly legendary experience. Almost all broadcasters will show a "chivalrous leaning" attitude, so chivalrous people often follow the signals or other broadcast contact information to find the broadcasters and teach them some martial arts from the outer sect and the inner sect.

When Wu Zu created the cyber martial arts system, he emphasized its attribute of attaching great importance to "information sharing."

This is still just a small story of this era, very ordinary.

After all, the old crab did not become that kind of "hero". He is just an ordinary broadcaster, like many people in this era.

However, during the short period of communication with the knight, the old crab got what he thought was an "extraordinary" story.

A story about "changing the world".

A story about a pure man who betrayed the world three times and raised the flag of rebellion for the sake of everyone.

Human beings’ “thoughts” are often based on “stories.” For example, in ancient times, people established ancient societies and established a consensus that emphasized kindness because of the story of "good and evil will be rewarded in the end". In modern times, humans generally believed in the fair story that "you will get equal rewards for your efforts", and thus established a pre-modern society.

The old crab knew the story of Wu Zu Xiangshan.

He knew there were people in the world who could live like that.

So pure, so ideal...

The more one stands at the height of history, the more extraordinary one feels.

The old crab began to want to become a knight.

It's just that he is a bit old after all. Without the adjustment of enzymes and growth hormone, the development of the brain's neural network is limited.

He has been using this very industrial-style prosthetic body for many years. He simply couldn't afford to save a warrior's prosthetic body.

Of course, the old crab himself can’t be considered particularly hard-working.

After all, his main job is singing.

Just, just.

He still wants to be a knight.

"The song "Thoughts Are Free" is dedicated to all the listeners." Old Crab said: "I wish you all can have such uncaptured freedom."

As the old crab said this, he looked towards the east.

That's the direction of the Methodist Building.

"This broadcast may be clearest near Jayhawk City. However, it may be the first time for listeners in Jayhawk City to find my signal. Let me introduce myself again. My name is Old Crab. I want to be a chivalrous person, but I am not a martial arts person after all. This is the twelfth year since I started broadcasting, and the eighth year since I started listening to chivalrous stories."

"If I were a young man, I might be able to rely on these stories to work hard and become a knight. Hahaha, but for an old guy like me, stories are just stories."

As he spoke, he sang another song called "Hasta Siempre", "Forever". He liked the word.

When the old crab said this, he was also observing Jayhawk City carefully.

One song was finished. He probably feels that there are more listeners now than before.

No way, it is difficult for radio to count the number of listeners in real time.

He just glanced at his web page. The URL of this page relaxes along with the broadcast. The signal it corresponds to is not within the hearing range of ordinary people. But a special encoder can directly convert this "noise" in the acoustic signal into a hyperlink.

This is also a method that many broadcasters love to use.

However, most people who listen to the radio are not online. So there are very few messages on it.

The latest one was from five hours ago.

The old crab sighed and muttered: "Although I know I'm not a big podcaster, this is a bit too scary."

"Maybe this is it."

This passage was not broadcast. He can choose the content of the broadcast himself.

All the audience heard was the sound of his guitar. This is a riff.

The old crab continued to face the audience who did not know whether it existed or not, and said: "Let's continue the topic just now. Maybe the audience friends in Jayhawk City are confused, why do I appear here?"

"Because I saw a hero. A great hero."

The old crab didn't know who the hero was who jumped down from the Meiyimei Building and killed the powerful people. However, he is undoubtedly worthy of the chivalrous legend.

Celebrating this legend is one of the things broadcasters should do.

The old crab briefly talked about himself and his experiences in the past few days with an impromptu performance.

Of course, it's also very simple. He just happened to be making a broadcast in a nearby village, and then happened to hear something nearby. I saw the video live broadcast last night and spent a day coming here.

——Next, there should be more people listening to the radio...

The old crab took another look at the web page.

There were so many scattered messages. They are all system default contents.

But this gave him great comfort.

The old crab knew that he was not doing this alone.

He sighed and continued: "I have been on the road of broadcasting for twelve years, and then pursued chivalry for eight years. As for me, an old crab, it can be said that I have accomplished nothing for the time being. Wu Zu said that the past history is not all stupidity and ignorance. There is a spark of wisdom and a true hero and true justice.”

"Ah, to be honest, I completely agree with this sentence. I have been walking outside for twelve years. In these twelve years, I have seen good and bad people, smart people and stupid people. Just like in the story, People have different colors. However, I have seen gentleness, kindness, wisdom, and cleverness, but I have rarely seen 'chivalry' - I mean, like in the story, it seems to be shining chivalry."

"But yesterday, I saw it in Jayhawk, so I came."

The old crab said this and naturally moved to the next topic.

"This kind of thing is really rare. I've been gone for twelve years. I couldn't catch up with the eleventh defeat of the God of War, and I couldn't witness the end of the legend. But, this time I really saw the hero Haha, I really want to see their expressions with my own eyes."

"Ah, no, actually from the ground, I can probably see their reaction. Friends, you don't know, I am outside Jayhawk City now. The soldiers brought back by the lord, I saw It’s crystal clear. Oh, look at these hateful-looking chariots..."

He began broadcasting what he saw.

For Jianghu people, these are considered a foundation. Rely on visual inspection to roughly estimate the number of people and vehicles in an area.

Relevant algorithms and plug-ins are bundled with "guerrilla" tactics and stored online.

An ordinary man broadcasts the movements of Jayhawk City's army.

This chapter was much harder to write than I thought... My writing skills are indeed not as good as I thought.
