Cyber Heroes

Sagittarius Xiangshan opened his eyes in the maintenance cabin.

This is a silent submarine. It was supposed to belong to a certain sect and have a large reactor.

Judging from the traces, it was inferred that the submarine was torn open from the side by something small but powerful, and then rushed into it. Since it does not have a biological brain and was not originally designed to perform this task, Sagittarius Xiangshan's AI is not as analytical as the main body.

But Xiangshan could tell that this was the result of a certain warrior breaking into the submarine.

The entire submarine was flooded, and the intruder walked away after a killing spree. After that, others dismantled many key parts here, including the reactor.

However, they regarded some items as rubbish and did not move them away at all, nor did they carefully count them when cleaning the battlefield.

The tools used by the squids to saw through the dragon horn chains were also picked up here.

That polymer saw wire is not used alone, but is a weapon that is combined with counterweights or even underwater drones to weave a web in the sea water. After it is determined that the opponent has been entangled, there is a special mechanism to allow the silk thread to move back and forth, destroying the outer armor at a faster speed.

Underwater fighting is already limited in speed. Human beings are limited by material science and it is difficult to make prosthetic bodies move faster underwater. "Fighting against water" is much more difficult than "fighting against air".

And in this battle where the speed is forced to slow down, this jagged polymer thread will be useful.

Normally, these things come in groups of ten or twenty.

——It’s rare to have a martial art specifically designed for underwater use.

Sagittarius Xiangshan thought so.

This sect should have plans to cultivate the underwater area and open up a new front under the ocean. This battlefield has rarely been paid attention to by patrons before, so there might be opportunities for knights.

It's a pity that they ruined the Six Dragons Sect.

Perhaps they never knew why they were killed until their death.

And this wreckage was eventually occupied by a group of defecting squids.

Xiangshan originally only expected Squid to point him to some safe areas that were difficult to track by the Six Dragons Sect, but he didn't expect to find such treasures.

In this era, many machines are more durable than those in the 21st century. Even if it has been soaked in water for more than twenty years, there are still some machines that can operate.

Sagittarius Xiangshan directly pulled out a few wires from the interface of his prosthetic body and connected them to the damaged circuit. The strong current even caused minor explosions underwater.

If Xiangshan hadn't asked the squid to retreat a thousand meters away in advance, all the nearby squid would have been killed in a wave.

And with the touch of circuits, Xiangshan also knew that there were still circuits in the wreckage that were intact and operational. In order to improve the stability of the vehicle, although many systems of this submarine were powered by one reactor, they were relatively independent. There are still some circuits intact.

Xiangshan even found many compressed gas bottles. He welded some waterproofing and reinforcement measures in some cabins, and then restored a small waterless space.

What is commendable is that Xiangshan also found some intact parts and functioning equipment.

Sagittarius Xiangshan first upgraded these maintenance instruments, and then the first thing he did was to remove the wing-shaped vector injector group from behind.

If it weren't for this crap, he wouldn't have been knocked down by Holy Lord Xiangshan so easily.

This special component for space warfare performed poorly when taken underwater.

The Holy Lord's intelligence operation made everyone think that "even if there is danger underwater, it will not be a problem for a first-level heavenly warrior." Both the body Xiangshan and Sagittarius Xiangshan were deceived. In addition, the current war situation on Earth is not optimistic, so they entered the water directly without waiting for preparations.

Holy Lord Xiangshan naturally did not expect this. It's just that Xiangshan's style is like this. If a certain layout doesn't cost much, then he doesn't mind taking a casual move to increase his chips for future "bets on life." After that, he began to use the remaining materials to make equipment for himself.

In the process, a squid that came here with Xiang Shan finally couldn't resist the deterioration of his injuries and died.

In the end, due to the vigorous action of the squids, only a single digit number of escapees came here and appeared together with the wild squid group.

In those days, Ah Hun's body turned white. He has absolutely no energy to manipulate skin pigment cells. The whole squid was limp and listless.

Xiangshan was even worried that his squid friend would die from his injuries.

Fortunately that didn't happen.

Ah Hun presided over the funeral of the squid. Xiang Shan also participated. The squids don't know what human funerals are, and there was no related culture in the past. But as humans raised their IQ to the point where they could understand life and death, they also learned how to commemorate their departed friends.

Ah Hun dissected his friend, dug out seven chips from his body and gave them to Xiang Shan.

The life span of squid is very short, even after standardization, it is less than ten years.

Compared to baseline people, this is life and death.

It is precisely because of this that the wild squid group is now in a huge crisis.

The squids can't produce their own chips. Without chip implantation, benchmarking would only increase the squid's neural signal transmission speed, bringing it to a level slightly higher than that of Homo sapiens. However, the standardization of squids has only been a few decades, and the power of evolution is not enough to allow squids to improve the complexity of their nervous systems and improve their innate intelligence.

The benchmarked wild squid, without chip implantation, is only slightly smarter than the carbon-based squid.

There must be defected squids to command the standardized squids born in the wild, so that they can barely maintain collective actions and avoid being found and captured by the Six Dragons Cult or the Scientific Research Knights.

However, a defective squid with a chip implanted in its body has a lifespan of less than ten years. There must be constant supply of defecting squid to replenish it.

The defecting squids even have to eat some eggs themselves to barely suppress the population.

They're tough, too.

At first, Xiangshan couldn't find any interface that could connect to the strange chip.

This is very unusual. The human central system chip is used to receive human brain signals and command machinery. Therefore, it can also be inserted into several mainstream motherboard models and used as an ordinary chip - of course, the effectiveness of this method is not as good as that of ordinary chips of the same cost.

But the chip dug out of the squid is very strange.

Xiangshan even suspended the printing of underwater equipment and specially built a set of optical equipment to observe the chip.

Then, he was very surprised to find...

This chip is made of organic matter.
