Chapter 295

When Qi Xi saw Chu Xiu appear in the camera, he immediately shook his head and moved forward, blinking his cute big eyes.

"Father, Father, I'm here, can you see me?"

Chu Xiu knew that if he didn't answer, the boy would keep talking for half a day.

"I see."

Fortunately, the camera is stable, otherwise it would be shaking so much that I couldn't see anything clearly.

Qi Xi tilted his head, looked carefully, and suddenly said, "Father, you are wearing something different today."

It's different.

I usually wear ordinary clothes, but today I am wearing a military uniform, which is very different.

It's very different.

Qi Heng watched from the side. The specially customized military uniform on Chu Xiu matched his temperament very well.

This military uniform continues the consistent style of the Tianjia civilization. Although there are some minor differences, the overall style is similar to that of ten thousand years ago.

I have a pretty good eye, and the ones I picked are very nice.

Noticing their gazes, Chu Xiu felt inexplicably nervous.

"Really?"

"Yes." Qi Xi nodded hurriedly, fiddling with the camera again, and said somewhat dejectedly, "This looks good on my father-in-law, but why can't I see his whole body?"

Chu Xiu was helpless, "Don't move, you can't see it like this."

"Then how can we see it?"

Chu Xiu stood up and zoomed out, capturing his entire body in the frame.

It was at this moment that Qi Heng finally saw what the uniform looked like on him... The color of the clothes was heavy, but it couldn't hide Chu Xiu's young eyebrows.

They were probably in the dormitory. Chu Xiu was not wearing a hat, and his silver hair fell naturally in front of him. He looked more relaxed as he chatted with them, and his expression became softer.

At first glance, I thought he was a student who had not graduated from a military academy.

But if you look closely, you will find that Chu Xiu's temperament is very different from that of a student who has not yet experienced the baptism of blood and fire.

"Wow--"

Qi Xi pulled Qi Lan next to him and said, "Brother, look, isn't my mother-in-law very beautiful?"

In this way, Qi Lan, who had been watching them chatting and directing the original Zerg to work, also came into the camera.

"Hello, father."

Qi Lan greeted him first, then looked at Chu Xiu.

Compared to Qi Xi, who had only just emerged from the egg, Qi Lan had encountered Chu Xiu many times before. Although thousands of years had passed, he had been asleep the entire time, and his memories hadn't faded with the passage of time.

On the contrary, he was more familiar with Chu Xiu's appearance at the moment.

"Brother, why are you in a daze?" Qi Xi pulled Qi Lan.

Qi Lan said, "I remember what your father used to look like."

Qi Xi knew some things about the past. Although he regretted that he was born late, he couldn't help but say, "The female father must have been good-looking before. Male father, tell me, am I right?"

Qi Heng: “…”

How should I answer this question?

The Chu Xiu of the past? The characters in the game were all pixelated figures. No matter how good-looking they were, it was hard to distinguish them among a crowd of pixelated figures.

No, it’s not completely indistinguishable.

He still has some memories of the silver-haired pixelated man.

Moreover, the Lord’s memory also contained Chu Xiu’s appearance, the moment when he was awarded the medal, and his daily work reports... Qi Heng was slightly distracted for a moment, but fortunately he quickly came back to his senses.

Facing the gazes of the two children, he smiled slightly and said calmly, "Of course."

It looks good, no doubt about it.

He was born with unparalleled handsomeness, as white as snow, and even had silver hair. His beauty index increased by more than ten percentage points in front of the master.

With his affirmation, Qi Xi smiled even more happily.

Don't underestimate the cubs. The cubs of the Tianjia Zerg can sense whether the relationship between their parents is good or not from an early age. After all, only when the relationship between the parents is harmonious and they love each other, the survival rate of the cubs will be higher.

Therefore, instinctively, Qi Xi hoped that the relationship between his female father and male father would be better.

However, there were really no other reference objects around, and Chu Xiu and Qi Heng behaved very harmoniously in front of the cub, so it did not cause Qi Xi to feel uneasy.

Without the high and low standards, Qi Xi would not have developed into the fearless and daring character he is today.

Although he hadn't seen Chu Xiu for only one day, Qi Xi had a lot to say, most of which he had already said to Qi Heng before.

But it is normal for the insect cub to want to share his daily life with his female father.

Especially since Qi Xi slept in the egg for such a long time, and Chu Xiu and Qi Heng were not by his side for such a long time before he hatched, Qi Xi wanted to show off in front of them whenever he got the chance.

What can Qi Heng say?

Seeing Chu Xiu listening attentively, he said nothing.

It would be foolish of me to disturb the time when this father and son were communicating with each other.

Anyway, there is still enough time. It is only a little after nine o'clock. It won't delay anything if they chat for a while.

Qi Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, with a smile on his lips, and watched without saying a word.

He knew that based on Chu Xiu's habit, he would never let the kid stay up late.

It’s just right, let Chu Xiu coax the kid to sleep.

As it turned out, he knew Chu Xiu very well, and Chu Xiu was much better at coaxing children than he was.

But after a while, even though Qi Xi was still not satisfied and wanted to talk to her father-in-law, he was coaxed into going to bed obediently.

Once the video link with Qi Xi was disconnected, only Chu Xiu and him were left.

"You still have a way with him."

Qi Heng chuckled when he thought about how Chu Xiu had just coaxed Qi Xi into promising to sleep well and not to bother him about contacting him these days.

"Otherwise, if I don't see you these few days, you little brat will be annoying me to death."

He had mixed feelings towards Qi Xi. After all, she was 'his' child, no matter how impossible it was.

But he was a single man who suddenly had multiple children, and he really had no experience in raising children. He was just a little annoying and clingy, but it wasn't a big mistake, so he couldn't scold or hit her.

Not to mention that Qi Heng couldn't do it, even if he could, he couldn't do anything to a child who loved him so much.

"When the little guy gets angry, I can't coax him." Qi Heng teased.

Between them, Qi Xi is closer to Chu Xiu, or in other words, he listens to Chu Xiu more.

Mingming took care of Chu Xiu for a long time when he was still in the egg, but after coming out, he became more attached to Chu Xiu, whom he met for the first time.

Seeing that Chu Xiu was a little at a loss because of his teasing and hesitated about what to say, Qi Heng changed the subject and talked about something else.

"How are the subordinates I sent to you today? Are they working well?"

"Isn't that scary?"

He did not tell Chu Xiu in advance before sending this group of intelligent military AI simulated instructors. Chu Xiu was probably also shocked when he saw them.

Hearing him mention this matter, Chu Xiu adjusted his mood and became businesslike.

"No, they helped me a lot, much better than I thought at first."

Chu Xiu is not a man of few words. He can say a lot when it is necessary to talk about the matter at hand. It is just that he seems to be frugal with words because there is no need to say much.

In front of Qi Heng, he didn't know what to say and was unsure of the distance between them, so he seemed silent most of the time.

"With their help, we saved a lot of time."

After hearing this, Qi Heng waited for Chu Xiu's next words, but found that Chu Xiu had no intention of continuing.

"You don't have anything to ask?"

Chu Xiu was stunned, then said as a matter of course: "I don't have anything to ask."

“…”

The explanation he had originally planned died in the womb, but Chu Xiu didn't intend to ask about the origins of these simulated humans. You know, these simulated humans can't be made on Tianyun Star.

Forget it, since Chu Xiu doesn’t ask, there’s nothing much to say.

"I'll send another batch to help you after a while."

"You can't find female insects like Lan Yi to help you with military training. Simulated humans created by intelligent AI are just right for being your subordinates. Don't worry about their intelligence level; they can handle any unexpected situations during military training."

"If there are any other shortcomings, you can tell me."

Shuguang Community was originally a residential area. When it was planned, there were three phases of land use. Later, the use of phase three was directly changed to a military training area, and many of the designs there needed to be changed.

Even though the first batch of female insects have already started training and learning, there are actually still many parts that have not been repaired. In order not to waste time, they are starting training and repairing at the same time.

"Okay, it's getting late, go to bed early."

Qi Heng smiled and said, "Don't we have to get up early tomorrow to train with them? We can't sleep too late."

"While training them is important, you also have to take care of your health. I don't want to hear bad news about you."

Chu Xiu's physical condition was not good, but it was not to the extent that he needed to be carefully cared for like a porcelain doll. Because of this, Chu Xiu didn't care about his own body as much as he did.

"I know." Chu Xiu said.

"It's better for you to remember this. If you were sick, I wouldn't be the one who would worry about you the most." He said meaningfully.

When Qi Xi was treating Chu Xiu previously, he seemed to be comforted and not worried at all.

But secretly, he would come to ask me every time, and would not feel relieved until he got good news.

After hearing what he said, Chu Xiu suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He quickly said "good night" and ended the communication with him.

Looking at the black screen, Qi Heng was speechless.

I always feel that Chu Xiu is becoming more and more relaxed in front of me. He would never end a conversation so 'impolitely' before, without even giving me time to react.

It's already past ten o'clock.

After thinking for a while, Qi Heng entered the folding space, his exclusive workshop.

There were many things piled up here in a disorderly yet orderly manner, with baskets full of defective products and waste, including star plant extracts and mechanical parts.

The former is fine, as it is only piled up in a small area, but the latter occupies a large area.

——Each of the parts for mechas, star-level weapons, starships, etc. is quite large.

On one side of the workshop is a parts manufacturing workshop. The reconstructed mechanical lathes used to manufacture parts here easily occupy hundreds of square meters. At present, this place represents the most advanced and sophisticated industrial level of the entire Tianjia civilization.

These things are Qi Heng's attempts at some future plans during this period.

Qi Heng picked up the gloves beside him and put them on, then picked up the fist-sized round core from the triangular glass stand, which looked like it was carved from crystal.

There is no dust here, and the space automatically isolates any impurities that may affect the operation of the equipment.

The core was round in shape, covered with lines like nerve endings and tentacles. Facing the center of the sphere, two upper and lower arcs formed the shape of an eye.

He walked to the side holding the intelligence core, opened the back of the bionic man's head, put it in, and then closed the back of the head.

The gap behind the brain where the intelligence core was placed disappeared the next moment, as if it had never been opened or closed.

"A0, inject energy and activate."

He had done this step hundreds of times and was very familiar with it.

The one in front of me was what was left over from the production of the batch of bionic humans given to Chu Xiu.

At that time, because the quantity of the first batch was enough, he did not continue to activate it. Only now did he have time to deal with this leftover stock.

[Energy injection in progress, activating the z365 intelligence core.]

[The entire process takes five minutes and consumes 100,000 units of system energy.]

Qi Heng was not idle while waiting. He tidied up the workbench and put a bunch of smart cores that failed to activate into the drawer.

Although these smart cores are useless, it does not mean that they will not be used in the future.

When you have enough energy in the future, you can activate it again and use it again.

Although it is no longer possible to be A-level, B-level is also good, and it can be used as an auxiliary intelligent brain for A-level mechas. It took so much system energy to create it, and it cannot be wasted like this.

Qi Heng packed up and looked at the bionic man standing there.

Since the bionic appearance has not yet been attached, the bionic body is now very exposed.

The body made of steel and iron is exposed, full of a futuristic sci-fi beauty. A pair of electronic eyes emit a faint red light, which means that it is still in a dormant state.

【Energy injection completed, activation successful.】

【The machine's self-check program is activated.】

[Smart Core No. z365, the number is being changed...Smart Core No. is corrected to A016.]

Along with A0's voice, the red light in the eyes of the bionic man in front of him faded, and a light blue light began to appear.

[Bionic man number A016, [Angstrom-level micro-mechanical insect] extraction program activated.]

On the other side, in a huge glass cylinder that was large enough for two people to hug, a ball of blue light floated out through the small gap and floated towards the bionic man like a light band, embracing and entwining it, and gradually attached to the bionic man's body.

During this process, the "blue light" in the cylinder seemed to be alive and breathing, and its number was constantly increasing.
