Chapter 435 Do Bionic People Dream About That?
"I've detected your doubts and here are the answers for you."
The girl seemed to see Li Muhan's astonishment at the moment, and she said to Li Muhan with a smile.
"I'm not human, but a bionic machine constructed with the powerful computing power of Prometheus. Our common name is Leia, and my code name is Leia 035. This time, I'm specifically responsible for all matters related to the Chinese Special Management Bureau. If you have any needs within Prometheus, please let me know."
"A mechanical body...? It's so realistic..."
Li Muhan couldn't help but look him up and down, and then felt that it was a bit impolite.
"Sorry, I, I'm just a little curious. This is the first time I've seen a real android."
The point is that Li Muhan thought that this technology would take at least several decades to mature, but he didn't expect to see such a perfect bionic man here. What on earth is this Prometheus? It is so powerful.
"Please don't worry. Prometheus is isolated from the outside world, and the staff stationed here will also have physiological needs. All of Rhea will reasonably help researchers solve physiological problems within the allowable range. If you have any such needs, I can help you, but please don't be too rough. Some of my joints are relatively fragile. If my body is damaged during sex, please contact the engineering department in time..."
"No, no, no, no, no, not in that regard, thank you."
Li Muhan quickly turned around and walked towards the inside of the cabin.
This bionic man is incredible...
But if we only want to satisfy male researchers, are there special models to serve female researchers?
I have to say that this facility has taken every aspect into consideration in order to allow these researchers to do their work well.
After entering the facility, Li Muhan saw Mo Qiao lying on the ground struggling to connect a large bundle of power.
"Let me do it, Minister Mo."
Li Muhan hurried forward to help.
Mo Qiao was not polite either. After instructing Li Muhan on how to connect, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and complained at the same time.
"What on earth were Chang Yue and Qu Ran doing on their last business trip? They messed up all my wires and even plugged in some gaming devices. Who allowed them to mess with my lab?"
Your laboratory...isn't this public property...
Li Muhan suppressed the urge to complain, carefully connected the wires, then stood up and looked at the facility again.
"If you want to do something to Rhea, I won't tell."
Seeing Li Muhan looking left and right like a curious baby, Mo Qiao suddenly said this.
Li Muhan was so frightened that he suddenly became alert.
"Minister Mo, you are still a minor, so it would be better if you speak with some discretion."
"Hehe, I need to get some sleep. There might be a joint meeting tonight. You can go around on your own."
Mo Qiao took a can of Coke, waved at Li Muhan and walked into the room.
Li Muhan touched here and looked there. He didn't have his cell phone with him, but even if he did, there would probably be no signal in this facility.
Then let’s just go out for a walk.
Li Muhan did not say hello to Mo Qiao. After all, she seemed to have fallen asleep. So after leaving a note saying "Sleep well here, I'll buy you some oranges", Li Muhan left the facility.
As soon as he left, Leia came to his side immediately.
"You're just standing at the door?"
Li Muhan couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, it is our mission to provide service to every guest who comes to Prometheus."
"That's so tiring. Next time you don't have to stand at the door. Come in and sit down."
"Yes, sir. If you need me to enter the facility, I will follow your instructions. If you have any special requests, I will also..."
"No, no! Don't ask this question again!"
Li Muhan interrupted Leia irritably.
"I have no intention of angering you, Mr. Li. You are a good man. I will abide by your decision and will turn off the active seduction system."
"What system?"
Li Muhan didn't want to delve into it any further. This was too much of a waste.
"Take me around this facility." Li Muhan quickly changed the subject.
Leia nodded slightly and walked to Li Muhan with the tablet in her hand.
"Of course, Mr. Li, I'd be happy to show you some of the areas open to the public."
Leia's voice was soft and magnetic, and her eyes sparkled with intelligence, as if she could see through Li Muhan's curiosity.
Under the guidance of Leia, Li Muhan strolled in the spacious corridor. Display screens were embedded on the walls on both sides, updating the data and progress of various research projects in real time.
Leia explained one by one, from bioengineering to quantum computing, each project made people marvel at the continuous breakthroughs in the boundaries of human technology.
All of this is thanks to Prometheus' powerful core computing system.
They passed through a transparent observation room where a group of scientists were conducting collaborative experiments with highly advanced robots. Although those robots were made of metal, their movements were very elegant and coordinated.
Like a living artist performing on a sophisticated stage.
"This is our latest model of bionic man, Eden. It's also our fully upgraded system and is expected to be fully operational next month."
Leia explained everything to Li Muhan in a gentle voice.
But Li Muhan felt something was wrong: "What about you guys?"
"The old models of Rhea and Torres have various shortcomings, such as fragile joints, outdated core chips, and an inability to fully handle Prometheus' computing power, resulting in a lack of personality changes. Therefore, they will be collectively destroyed next month."
......
Li Muhan stopped.
He was stunned and looked back at the lovely girl who still had a smile on her face and looked pretty.
"Do you know what you just said?" he asked with a frown.
"To repeat my previous answer, the old models of Rhea have various shortcomings, such as fragile joints, outdated core chips, and inability to fully handle Prometheus' computing power. Therefore, they will be collectively destroyed at the beginning of next month."
"No, you mean destroyed. It means you're gone instantly, just like you're dead."
"Both Rhea and Torres are older models. After five years of service with Prometheus, they've reached their limit. As Prometheus continues to upgrade its capabilities, the elimination of Rhea and Torres is a normal replacement."
“…”
Li Muhan felt that this conversation was very strange...
But he soon understood that this was because the girl in front of him had no self-awareness, and she didn't even know what destruction and death were.
"Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Li Muhan sighed, turned around and continued walking forward.
Leia 035 stood there in a daze for a moment. She looked at Li Muhan and a red light suddenly flashed in her eyes. Then she returned to normal and followed Li Muhan's steps.
"Please allow me to continue showing you around, Mr. Li."
Next, they came to a futuristic laboratory where research on neural networks was being conducted.
"Prometheus's computing power needs to be realized through various carriers. What is being conducted here is a great experiment to ensure that humans can use this powerful computing power for their own benefit in the future."
A huge holographic projection displayed a complex neuron model. Leia explained that these research results may change human understanding of consciousness and learning.
Then they went to the living area, the rest area, the entertainment area, and even the fucking legal red-light district.
Of course, although there are no Leia in the red light district, they are all bionic people of the same model as Leia, except that they have different hairstyles and clothes.
At the end of the tour, they came to a display area.
Some of the successfully developed scientific and technological achievements are displayed there, including efficient clean energy devices and advanced medical equipment.
Li Muhan saw two dusty display cabinets in the corner of the exhibition area.
In that display case were two mechanical bodies that were not too lifelike.
"On display here are Leia's previous generation bionic bodies, Lucius and Li Mingna. They served this facility for five years and made outstanding contributions. They will be preserved here forever for people to see."
Leia introduced it proudly, but Li Muhan raised his hand and touched the thick dust on the display cabinet with his fingers.
"...Apart from you, will anyone really remember them?"
"Yes, Leia will record everything about them in her mind. Soon Leia will join them and become a part of this institute. This is Leia's pride."
"This is the pride you were programmed to have."
He didn't look at Leia, but just looked at the two mechanical bodies in the display cabinet, and didn't know why he said this.
I thought Leia would give him a formulaic answer, but she didn't.
The bionic man behind him said nothing, as if he was stuck.
The red light in his eyes flashed again, as if recording something.
Just then, a sound of light footsteps came from behind.
Li Muhan turned around slowly and saw a tall man walking towards him.
The man wore straw sandals, a black Japanese-style robe, two katana swords on his waist, and his black hair was tied wildly behind his head. He had the air of a ronin from the Fuso era.
Li Muhan also recognized that this person was none other than the strange creature he had just seen in the airport lobby.
"Dunk your dick!"
The man came up to Li Muhan and bowed suddenly.
"Watashi! Fuso Special Management Bureau! Shinsengumi! The first team's alien! Miyamoto Yagyū! Yorozumi Death Bitterness!"
Li Muhan almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
You can tell from the tone that he is the old colonel as soon as he opens his mouth.
