Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

"Meat Bun! Don't pounce!" Zhuang Xuteng yelled, and at the same time he controlled the joystick and used the tentacles of the grudge to move the flat-headed brother quickly to hide under the bed. The meat bag hit the mattress with his head, then thrust his face into the seam of the bed, grinning and yelling. When it started to put its claws in and scratch at random, Zhuang Xuteng had already grabbed its tail and dragged it back.

He was not released from the "zombie" state, and his legs were still unable to move, so he could only rely on his hands to move. After crawling over, he grabbed the snow leopard's tail, pulled it back, and then punched it on the head. "Aren't you obedient? That's not your toy! If you bite it in one bite, more than 200,000 euros will be gone! Lie down and I'll get you something good to chew on."

Zhuang Xuteng pressed the "disconnect" button. Three seconds later, his legs regained consciousness; another three seconds later, the double image in his field of vision disappeared. This exit speed is pretty good, very much in line with the requirements of the battlefield environment, and saves more than half the time compared to civilian zombie equipment. Zhuang Xuteng immediately stood up, stretched his limbs, entered the seven-dodge state and performed some martial arts movements. His physical condition was better than he expected. There was only the normal relaxation caused by sitting for a long time, and there was no additional nerve fatigue or muscle paralysis.

Run the dormant martial arts, and screen and check while removing the negative state of the body. Zhuang Xuteng found some side effects of the shadow equipment, but otherwise his physical condition was intact. "The quality of company-level equipment is really good. It can reduce the burden on the body to this extent, which greatly exceeds my expectations." Zhuang Xuteng made a rough estimate: before he was overwhelmed by the side effects of the implant, the total time he had to control Flathead Brother was at least There can be three hundred hours.

Three hundred hours actually exceeds the maximum ten hours of working time of Brother Flathead. Normally, he would not carry so many batteries. Don't think that ten hours is very little. In actual usage scenarios, the power consumption will be relatively high only when you need to change the flat-headed brother's state, such as using the "brain-computer-assisted control mode" to move the position and enable functions. When keeping still, maintaining functions and the human brain is not involved, just press the remote control. At this time, the operator will not suffer any side effects at all, and the power consumption of the flat head brother will be greatly reduced.

The instruction manual says that if you simply use it as a radio, it can work continuously for fifty hours; if you turn off the environmental monitoring, it can reduce the power consumption by half - it is enough, absolutely enough.

"If I can master Flathead Brother's manipulation skills proficiently, I will be able to get more action options whether it is this time or in future missions." Zhuang Xuteng is the kind of person who will take action immediately after he figures it out. First, I found some chewable frozen meat bones for Roubao, and then I took Brother Pingtou's complete set of equipment and went downstairs to find Meteor.

After ringing the doorbell and calling, he stood at the door of Meteor's house for a long time before Meteor opened the door. After the door opened, Meteor hid behind the door, with only one eye exposed and looking outside warily and nervously. She urged Zhuang Xuteng to come in quickly so that he could close the door. She also blamed Zhuang Xuteng for why he didn't open the door and come in by himself even though he had the key.

"Uh... I have to be polite." Zhuang Xuteng walked in lightly and quickly closed the door. He noticed that Meteor was only wrapped in a white bath towel, and his hair was wet on his cheeks, neck and shoulders, and said, "Were you taking a shower just now?"

"Yes! I'm just taking a rest. Taking a bath can help me cool down, relax and rest. In addition, I looked at the alarm clock for half an hour and still have some time, which is enough to take a bath. I didn't expect that you can't even wait for half an hour, so Come see me soon.”

"It's okay if you insist on understanding it this way, but I'm mainly here to entrust you with the task - how about you blow dry your hair first? Your hair is wet and can easily catch a cold." Zhuang Xuteng put down Brother Flathead's box and said to Meteor.

"Thank you for your concern, but my scalp and hair are fake, so I won't catch a cold. In fact, as long as I work for a while, the water will be quickly evaporated and won't be a problem." Meteor stretched his head over and said, "I don't believe it. If you touch it, it feels different from real hair."

Seeing this, Zhuang Xuteng had no choice but to touch it gently. Indeed, Meteor's hair is more like plastic strands and lacks the texture of real human hair. He frowned slightly and asked: "When did you change it? When I took you to get a haircut, it was still real hair, right? What happened? Why did you have to change your scalp and hair?"

"It's true that I have to." Meteor smiled softly, as if he was talking about a small thing: "The power of the implant increased, and the body's heat dissipation reached the limit. My hair began to wither and turn yellow on a large scale, and my scalp began to break out in rashes. .There is no other way, I can only replace them and replace them with this type that has better heat dissipation."

"Why didn't you tell me something happened? I am still your bodyguard and I am responsible for your physical safety."

"You collapsed in the hospital." Meteor shrugged, waved his hands, and said, "I'm satisfied if you care about me. In fact, I don't think this is a bad thing at all, because at least I avoided Colonel Taft's Helping people with network spying and scanning, this is the best result. Mere scalp and hair are just a small price to pay."

"Does it hurt?"

"Local anesthesia, it doesn't hurt. I don't feel anything now, and I quite like the ability of my hair to stay clean and not fall out everywhere." Meteor tilted his head and looked at the box on the ground, and said, "Take Brother Flathead with you. Are you here? Did you make any progress just now?"

"Yes, I can control this thing, and I think it can expand my business capabilities. Brother Flathead can be used as an extension of the intelligence officer's information spying implant, right?"

"Absolutely... I scanned a manual and took a quick look. It has a deformable data interface, high-speed and large-bandwidth networking capabilities, and supports more than 30 image slave chip control specifications and network standards, so it can adapt to Most shadow slave systems. Yes, it can help intelligence officers in most scenarios, but it will also be powerless against those systems that are specifically customized."

"Is the environment we are facing this time customized?"

"Of course not." Meteor snapped his fingers and said, "Let's stop talking nonsense and get started! You start Brother Flathead and let me take a look. I will use the extremely high frequency short-range communication protocol to establish a connection with it."

"I don't understand what you're talking about. Just tell me the name of the agreement and I'll find it in Brother Pingtou's system." Zhuang Xuteng looked around, found a corner to support himself and sat down, and then activated Brother Pingtou.

With the experience last time, Zhuang Xuteng overcame the side effects of entering the zombie state more quickly, and his coordination with the hand-held remote control and the "foot-controlled" flat-head brother also improved to a certain extent. Then, Brother Flathead walked around and climbed up and down in Meteor's room. Not only could he jump on the sofa and table, he could also cling to the walls and climb up the roof like a real spider.

Meteor looked at the nimble flat-headed brother, his eyes full of little stars. "It's so fun! I didn't expect it to be so flexible and quiet. Brother Dao has been busy for a long time, and his flat-headed brother acts like he's convulsing and getting an electric shock at the same time. He's not as good as you. Using the zombie's physique can really reduce the difficulty of operation. .Hey, do you feel any discomfort?"

"When I use this, my legs are completely paralyzed, and I can only rely on my arms to support the movement on the ground - the flat head brother takes up part of the motor nerves. There is also a little more pressure from the side effects, but other than that the impact is not big. ." Zhuang Xuteng said: "What kind of agreement do you need to open?"

Meteor told Zhuang Xuteng the protocol code to find, and then guided him to set up various settings and establish a network connection between Brother Pingtou and her workstation. As the data link was opened, Meteor could also see Brother Pingtou's environmental reconnaissance data from the screen on her workbench, and also gained the functions of some information components.

She jumped on the workbench, opened her skull, and let the brain stretch out its tentacles and connect to the system. After trying to control it for a while, she sighed and said: "There is no way to control the movement of this thing, unless the information of this thing is isolated and burned."

"Wait, what are you doing?" Zhuang Xuteng asked in shock.

"Don't worry, I just want to see how safe this thing is. I'm worried that you will accidentally be connected by others while performing a task, and then your brain will be burned along the network. How terrible that would be! Don't you If you know how to fight with information, you won’t even know how you will die when the time comes.”

"Huh, this is indeed a risk." Zhuang Xuteng has been a zombie, and he knows very well that every time he hands over his body, he must be prepared to be disabled or even die. Just as you earn money by selling your zombie body, you also need to take a lot of risks to obtain the convenience brought by Flathead Brother. "Based on your experience, how should you prepare for fatal situations?"

"The complex method requires you to learn information network knowledge by yourself. There is only one simple method: when you use zombie mode to control Flathead Brother, do not open the data connection for strangers. Just treat yourself as a driver and put Flathead Brother in place. Then switch to remote control mode and let others connect. When the work is done and others exit the connection, you first let the system check whether there is anything left. After confirming that there is nothing, you can connect again. "

Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head, but it hit the antenna and was unable to scratch his head. "It sounds quite troublesome. It seems I have something new to learn."

"It's nothing to just learn this little thing! You can spend half of the time playing with Roubao, and I can teach you." Meteor said: "The shadow slave copying technology is getting better and better, and there will be more and more shadow slaves. I judge that information networks will develop greatly. If you want to continue in this industry, in addition to being able to fight, you must learn new technologies."

"Well, I understand. When this mission is over, I will come to you to learn." Zhuang Xuteng said: "Let's get down to business first. See if Brother Pingtou's information spying function works well."

Meteor's home is his studio, where there are all kinds of equipment. She usually uses these devices to practice her information detection abilities and constantly reviews the protocols of various image slave chips. Now these devices are just used to test Brother Flathead, and after they checked, they found that the effect was quite good.

"From the perspective of signal attenuation and bandwidth limitations, through Brother Flathead, I can exert about 70% of the power. If it is Nightingale and Rock Bird, they can exert 80 to 90%. Don't get me wrong, Brother Flathead's output ability is the same , have reached the upper limit, it’s just that I’m better than the two of them.”

"Understood. To sum up, this thing can indeed extend your abilities."

"Yes. From this point of view, Brother Flathead is really a good thing. In fact, it is not you who should use this thing the most, but Nightingale and Rock Bird: the frontline intelligence officers can best use this thing."

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said: "It's a pity that they don't have zombie physiques - they don't have zombie physiques, right?"

"Of course not. Information spying implants and zombie physiques are completely contradictory. Even the best zombie physique will be ruined as long as the information spying implant is installed. This specifically involves a lot of biology, medicine and Based on the knowledge of engineering, I don’t know the principles, only the results.”

"They are not zombies, so they can only be controlled manually." Zhuang Xuteng sighed and said, "Brother Pingtou is very difficult to control, and Brother Dao even lost in frustration."

"Hey, you've fallen into a misunderstanding. It's difficult for Brother Flathead to operate because it doesn't have enough space to install motion control components such as automatic attitude adjustment, and the remote control is also designed to be quite anti-human. Brother Dao can only use the remote control, so he has to bite the bullet; Sisters Nightingale and Yanqiao understand Shadow Cong Engineering. They can save parts by themselves and add functions such as automatic attitude adjustment to the remote control. Wouldn't it reduce the difficulty?"

"Ah?" Zhuang Xuteng was surprised for a moment, then nodded and said: "Same difficulties, but different solutions... That's good. It's really possible for the two of them to do it. Okay, that's their business, and it will be their business in the future. Things. Today, now, we have proved that Brother Flathead can come in handy. How to use its advantages specifically, you understand the technology and you have the right to speak, so you can tell Sister Lucy about this! "

"Don't worry, leave it to me! I'll try to optimize the action plan." Meteor sat up from the work chair, hugged his knees and looked at Zhuang Xuteng, his pink toes curled nervously. She said: "What are you going to do next? I still have some rest time..."

"Huh, I don't dare to rest. I have to study this thing again, especially its movement patterns on surfaces of different materials. Don't worry, I have a way to deal with the side effects of shadow shadow, and it will not affect the mission. By the way, How are your side effects accumulating?”

"I'm fine."

"Oh, come to me anytime if you have anything." Zhuang Xuteng licked his lips, feeling that he drank less water and was always a little dry. He started to run the disconnection process of Brother Flathead and asked at the same time: "Meteor, in addition to the communication function, I also saw something called external PmW. Do you know what that is?"

"External charging means using the body's implant to connect the device to charge it. It also uses the information detection function module, as long as it deforms appropriately." Meteor thought for a while and said: "That driver suit implant of yours is There is an interface on your back for contact charging. Hey, have you never used it?"

"It hasn't been used. I'll try when I go back." Zhuang Xuteng said while packing his things.
