Cyber Heroes

When Lu Xuanyu sat up from the platform with the help of his waist strength, he felt that his body was very light, as if he had fallen into a dream.

Since being intercepted at the waist, he has never sat up in a real sense.

Zhu Xinyu's voice came from behind a large screen: "Hey, Mr. Lu, how are you feeling? Is the tactile function working normally?"

Lu Xuanyu touched his buttocks. This is also artificial. He remembered that he nodded and said, "Yes, it's normal."

This voice was so far away in his memory, as if it was not his own words.

His soul seemed to be somewhere else. This joy...

Chen Feng and Tao Enhai looked at each other. Tao Enhai nodded and said, "You can stand up."

Lu Xuanyu tried to stand up.

It seemed that he hadn't done this kind of thing for so long that he had almost forgotten the feeling of being "down to earth".

When the soles of his feet touched the ground, he staggered slightly.

Then stand up quickly.

Lu Xuanyu was a little surprised. The "gait adjustment" just now was definitely not from his consciousness.

"Oh, balance control can currently be intervened by algorithms. For you, this feels like a knee jerk reflex or a hand withdrawal reflex. It is an artificially created unconditional launch." Zhu Xinyu continued to say behind the display screen.

Lu Xuanyu could only see the top of her head.

Lu Xuanyu looked at these feet. His reaction just now made him realize that no matter how close these legs were to reality, they were not entirely his.

The martial artist sighed slightly: "Is this a pre-installed function?"

"Oh, yes. This function is necessary."

"But..." Lu Xuanyu felt a little uncomfortable, "I think more training can overcome the operational problems."

While recording something, Florence explained: "Mr. Lu, there is really nothing we can do about this. If a baby falls while learning to walk, no one will have to bear legal responsibility. But if the user of the prosthetic limb falls, then The company that makes the prosthetics is likely to get into trouble."

"Oh, you don't have to worry about this. The program comes with a learning module that can adjust itself according to your habits." Zhu Xinyu raised her hand: "The further you get to the back, the less you will feel its existence. You are now It's like being a kid who just discovered knee-jerk firing. You just realize for the first time that you don't have control over your own body."

Florence took over the words naturally: "Actually, this is the same thing as the balance control algorithm of the whole body exoskeleton. For some elderly people, the exoskeleton is still very practical."

The entire set of prosthetic technologies of the Superman Enterprise are designed for baseline Homo, and it is difficult for Homo sapiens to be compatible with this version of the prosthetic body. However, many of Superman Enterprise's technologies can be used in other areas.

While Superman Enterprises is completing the technical reserves for human prosthetics, it is also providing technical support to many industries.

This is also one of the ways Superman Enterprises makes money.

"Try taking two steps?"

In the following time, Lu Xuanyu cooperated with others to complete many tests such as running and jumping.

Lu Xuanyu jumped back and forth a few times, and then said: "I feel that my center of gravity has changed..."

"Your center of gravity will be about 20 centimeters lower than before." Chen Feng said: "If you want to adjust it upward, you need to add additional weight to your upper limbs."

"No..." Lu Xuanyu suddenly said in a trance: "I think this is good."

The lower the center of gravity, the harder it is to knock down.

This is a small advantage in combat.

However, in this case, some actions need to be adjusted...

Lu Xuanyu thought a little deeply.

At this time, Chen Feng came over, pressed his shoulders with both hands, and pushed him back into the wheelchair: "Okay, let's get over it for the next two days. In order to prevent you from falling while practicing walking in private, we will temporarily cut off your access to the prosthetic limbs. control."

Lu Xuanyu was surprised: "Wait a minute, I think I can walk freely! And it's not like there is some balance control algorithm..."

"You are not proficient enough in controlling the prosthetic limb, and the correct mapping between the movement signals and the instructions of the prosthetic limb has not been established. The algorithm does not have high authority. If you make the wrong action, the prosthetic limb will still execute it. It can only be used when it loses balance. It will work." Chen Feng said: "It only takes a few days!"

After Lu Xuanyu sat down, he suddenly felt that his legs became weak.

The feeling is still there, but it's like being "paralyzed from exhaustion" and unable to exert any energy.

Chen Feng patted him on the shoulder: "It's just the past few days. You have endured it for several years, are you still short of the effort of the past few days?"

In the next few days, Lu Xuanyu underwent several more tests.

Walk, run, jump...

He regained these skills with astonishing speed.

Lu Xuanyu even learned squats and horse steps again.

Ah, but...

This kind of training means very little to him.

Now it's not muscles but machinery that determines his strength. Machines do not get stronger with more exercise. On the contrary, they wear out due to continuous operation and do not repair themselves.

Perhaps the lower stance has a little "balance training" effect for him, but the improvement in other aspects is minimal.

Under the premise of the existence of "balance control algorithm", the importance of "balance training" has also been reduced.

A lot of things have to be readjusted.

However, over the past few days, Lu Xuanyu has basically learned how to use the prosthetic limbs.

On the fifth day, several people from Superman Enterprise stopped disconnecting Lu Xuanyu's prosthetic limbs, and just hoped that he would not leave the scope of the medical center.

Lu Xuanyu has been waiting for this day for a long time.

That night, he put on thermal equipment and came to the activity area of ​​Homo sapiens.

A few years later, he once again took the initiative to knock on his wife's door.

Maybe it’s compensation for the past few years. This time, Lu Xuanyu stayed active until the anti-addiction system started counting down.

The next day, Lu Xuanyu made a new wish for Chen Feng and the others.

"You mean, you want to leave the medical center and go for a walk outside?" Chen Feng and Florence looked at each other.

Lu Xuanyu nodded firmly: "Yes, it's been half a year. I want to go out for a walk."

Chen Feng looked at Florence. The nursing scientist nodded: "Yes, this request is reasonable. And your body has basically recovered."

Chen Feng said: "Maybe the boss will come over soon? I guess he may mainly come to visit Xiao Zhu, but he should also check your prosthetic body data by the way?"

Zhu Xinyu was behind with her hands folded on her chest and her face was smug.

Lu Xuanyu was a little scared: "Then do I need to come back early?"

Florence said: "You can do whatever you want, there is no need to worry about Xiang's schedule."

Lu Xuanyu put on the thermal equipment again and walked towards the door. But the lower half of his clothes were old clothes he brought with him. When he put on his pants, Lu Xuanyu was really moved.

"Okay, leave early and come back early." He thought like this and trotted all the way to the door.

But just as he was about to go out, there was a scream behind him.

Lu Xuanyu turned around and saw a thin and small African boy falling to the ground, looking at him in horror.

To be precise, looking at his legs.
