Chapter 372: Mecha God

Plop~

The father and son were immediately terrified and knelt directly on the deck, with their foreheads touching the ground, as if they were seeing a god.

"Bye, hello to all the Mecha Gods!"

The middle-aged man shouted in a trembling voice, his emotions slightly unstable, with a bit of fear mixed in with his excitement.

"Mechagod?!"

Fang Zhixing, Great Black Buddha Mother and others looked at each other in surprise.

They were clearly human, so why did the fisherman think they were mechas? Could it be that mechas also looked like humans?

Fang Zhixing hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Who are you?"

The middle-aged man continued: "My name is Liu Jiangshui, and he is my son Liu Xiaohu."

Then, he pointed to the cab and continued, "That's my wife, Sun Lanhua."

Fang Zhixing couldn't help but be stunned. He stared deeply at the robot in the cab and was speechless.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man explained awkwardly: "My wife was in a car accident two years ago. Her body was run over many times, causing complete damage to her body and brain death.

Fortunately, the 'Intelligent Crystal' installed in my wife's head was not damaged. After replacing it with a second-hand mechanical body, she tenaciously survived. "

Hearing him say this, Fang Zhixing's heart was in turmoil.

"Fang Zhixing, did you hear that?" Xigou suddenly said, "He said 'Smart Crystal', didn't you get a 'Smart Crystal' before?"

Fang Zhixing nodded slightly.

He had previously suspected that the "Smart Crystal" was the core component of the mecha and its function was similar to that of a memory chip.

Now it seems that the functions of "SmartChip" are far more than that.

After an ordinary person dies, he can still rely on the "Intelligent Crystal" to continue living, but in a mechanical body.

Then, isn't "Smart Crystal" equivalent to an artificial version of the soul? As he was speaking, the man's wife walked out of the cab. Her movements were extremely stiff, and every step she took made the sound of gears turning and rubbing against each other.

"Greetings to all the Mecha Gods!"

The mechanical wife knelt down slowly, also very respectfully.

Her voice had some white noise and a hissing sound.

However, the expression is very smooth and natural, just like a living person speaking.

Fang Zhixing remained calm and asked with his hands behind his back, "Sun Lanhua, is your Zhijing functioning properly? Are there any abnormalities, such as amnesia or inability to think normally?"

The mechanical wife lowered her head and said, "To reply to Master Mechagod, I have not lost my memory, and all functions of Zhijing are normal."

Fang Zhixing asked again: "In your opinion, what is Zhijing?"

The mechanical wife was stunned for a moment, then answered as if reading from a script: "Smart Crystal is the second brain of our carbon-based creatures, also known as the 'human soul simulator'!"

At this point, she said something that sounded like an advertising slogan, but also seemed to speak with faith.

"The Zhijing is the soul!"

Fang Zhixing thought to himself, "As expected."

He glanced at the dog and said in a voice transmission: "It seems that when technology develops to a certain level, the human brain can be completely replaced."

Xigou agreed with this and smacked his lips, "It's incredible. Zhijing is probably a high-level version of artificial intelligence, perfectly replicating a person's memory, way of thinking and even personality."

Fang Zhixing's eyes flickered, and he responded, "Do you think that 'Intelligent Crystal' and 'True Self' are highly similar?"

Xigou thought about it carefully, and it was true! My true self was the most perfect me at a certain point in time!

The effect of returning to one’s true self is to allow one’s true self to be constantly reborn.

The same goes for Zhijing. It doesn't matter if the body is destroyed, the soul is still there! This is clearly the immortality of the soul!

The dog was amazed and said, "Black technology, absolutely black technology!"

Fang Zhixing collected his thoughts and asked, "Do you have a map?"

“Yes, yes!”

The middle-aged man raised his mechanical arm and pressed a red button.

Then, a light screen popped up from the robotic arm, showing a vast map.

There is a sea area on the map with a flashing triangle in the middle.

The middle-aged man pointed at the triangle and said, "This is where we are now, about 278 miles from the coastline."

Fang Zhixing raised his eyes and looked towards the land.

The name marked is "Mechanic Continent"! Just looking at the map, Mechanic Continent is vast and boundless, with mountains and rivers crisscrossing and huge cities everywhere.

Fang Zhixing asked, "Where are you from?"

The middle-aged man pointed to the seaside and said, "Our family lives in the 'wastewater treatment plant town'."

Fang Zhixing's eyes flashed, and he noticed that there was a "Sea King City" above the small town.

He immediately said: "Tell me about the situation in Neptune City."

The middle-aged man continued, "Sea King City is the largest city on the west coast, with a huge carbon-based population. The city lord is the king-level mecha god 'West Sea King'."

At this point, he hesitated and said humbly: "My whole family is made up of lowly fishermen. We are not qualified to enter the Sea King City, so we can't really describe what the city looks like."

Fang Zhixing understood and asked, "What is the status of carbon-based creatures in the Mecha Continent?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and he was obviously suspicious, but he did not show it. He replied: "The Mecha God Continent has a strict identity classification. Carbon-based creatures are the lowest level of existence, belonging to the fifth level! The fourth level is the cyborg, the third level is the robot, the second level is the full-life metal, and the first level is the Mecha God."

Fang Zhixing glanced at the middle-aged man's mechanical arm and asked, "Are you a cyborg?"

The middle-aged man waved his hands and said, "No, no, cyborgs refer to carbon-based creatures whose bodies have been strengthened and who can initially harness 'supernatural energy'."

He raised his mechanical arm and said with a wry smile: "This is just an auxiliary prosthesis that runs on low-level electricity. It can't be considered a cyborg at all."

"Extraordinary energy..."

Fang Zhixing seemed to be thinking about something, and couldn't help asking, "In your opinion, what kind of existence is the Mecha God?"

The middle-aged man and his wife looked at each other and replied tremblingly: "The Machine God is naturally the supreme mechanical god, omnipotent and immortal!"

Fang Zhixing asked: "So, how can one become a mecha god?"

"this……"

The middle-aged man panicked and said carefully: "The Mecha God is the Mecha God. From ancient times to now, it has always been the Mecha God. There is no such thing as becoming a Mecha God."

Fang Zhixing asked in surprise: "Mechanical God, isn't it a human, oh no, a carbon-based creature transformed?"

"Ah, is that so?" The middle-aged man looked confused, as he had never heard of this before.

Fang Zhixing frowned slightly and asked again: "Are carbon-based creatures allowed to practice martial arts?"

The middle-aged man replied, "I have heard of practicing martial arts, but our family has never seen a martial artist."

Fang Zhixing was a little disappointed. He felt that he could not ask anything else, so he turned his head to look at the Great Black Goddess.

"I don't have any questions."

The Great Black Buddha Mother shook her head, then glanced at Xuzhi and ordered, "Erase their memories."

Xuzhi nodded, stretched out his hand, and suddenly a strong white light burst out from his palm.

The middle-aged man and his family all collapsed and fell into a coma.

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing couldn't help but ask Xu Zhi: "Can you erase Zhijing's memory too?"

Xu Zhi replied: "I can't be sure, so I can only destroy Zhi Jing."

Fang Zhixing remained silent. He squatted down and removed the middle-aged man's mechanical arm.

He then searched the family but found nothing like "identity documents" or "money".

Soon, the group boarded the colorful clouds again and flew towards the coastline.

Following the map instructions of the robotic arm, the colorful auspicious clouds sped along.

Soon, they saw land and endless white sandy beaches.

Everyone's heartbeat quickened!

After more than a thousand years, the descendants of those who had fled finally set foot on the Mecha Continent again.

Colorful auspicious clouds flew over the beautiful beach and up along a river.

After a while, Fang Zhixing saw a thick black smoke appear between sky and earth, rolling up.

The air was filled with a pungent smell that stung the eyes like onions.

Colorful auspicious clouds descended.

Soon, a complex of buildings appeared on the ground. At a glance, there were houses, factories, and twisted streets.

The place is not very big.

Fang Zhixing released his spiritual perception and scanned the entire town.

“Well, this is the sewage treatment plant town!”

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Fang Zhixing suggested: "Let's go down and take a look."

There is nothing wrong with the Great Black Buddha Mother and others.

The colorful auspicious clouds fell rapidly and stopped in the woods outside the town.

The group walked forward and entered the town.

Looking around, there was garbage everywhere and sewage flowing everywhere. It was extremely dirty.

It's a slum!

There were not many pedestrians on the street. They were all dressed in rags, with unkempt hair and dirty faces, like beggars.

Xigou was disappointed and said in a voice transmission: "I thought the Mecha Continent was a cyberpunk world, it's too poor."

Fang Zhixing responded: "Don't jump to conclusions. This town should be a gathering place for humans, equivalent to a slave concentration camp, so it's naturally shabby."

Xigou thought so too.

As the group walked down the street, they soon attracted many people to stop and watch.

Their clothing and appearance are out of tune with the surrounding environment.

It's like a person wearing ancient robes suddenly breaks into a modern city.

Fang Zhixing strolled around and stopped in front of a store.

There was a plaque placed diagonally at the door with the words "Grocery Store" written on it.

Fang Zhi walked in and saw that the store was in a mess with various mechanical parts piled up randomly.

A bald old man was sitting behind the counter, sleeping soundly with his head down.

A fly landed on top of his head and crawled back and forth.

“Ahem!”

Fang Zhixing coughed, and the bald old man suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes.

His left eye suddenly lit up and glowed red.

It was a mechanical prosthetic eye! "Hey, guys, what is this..."

The bald old man looked at Fang Zhixing and the others. He became more and more surprised. He couldn't help but stand up, and his left eye glowed red.

He stared at Fang Zhixing and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this outfit? It looks like the style of the 'Ancient Imperial City'."

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the Five Elements Ten Thousand Swords, and he said with emotion: "This, this is a fifth-level divine weapon! Oh my God!"

The bald old man was stunned, his face full of disbelief, and he smacked his lips and said, "You, where did you get the fifth-level magic weapon?"

As soon as he said this, he shuddered and suddenly became nervous. He asked in a trembling voice, "Dear guests, where are you from? What can I do for you?"

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing said calmly: "Don't be nervous, we just want to find out a few things?"

The bald old man stood up straight and said honestly, "You can ask as much as you want, sir."

Fang Zhixing asked directly: "Are there any warriors in this town?"

The bald old man shook his head and waved his hands, saying, "Warriors are advanced carbon-based creatures. How could there be any in our poor little town?"

He raised his hand and pointed in a direction, then said carefully, "There is a 'Twilight Town' over there. There are some adventurers in the town. They wield swords and guns, like to venture into restricted areas, and make a living by hunting exotic beasts."

Fang Zhixing's eyes lit up, and he suddenly raised his hand. A golden light shone from his palm and shone on the bald old man's face.

The bald old man leaned back, slumped in the chair, and fell into a deep sleep.

After doing all this, Fang Zhixing quickly turned around and left.

The group rode on colorful auspicious clouds and flew at a low altitude, flying about one hundred and fifty to sixty miles away.

A lush forest suddenly appeared ahead.

Right at the edge of the forest stood a town.

Looking around, the houses are neat, the streets are clean and the trees are shady.

Fang Zhixing arrived above the town, released his spiritual perception, and took a quick look.

Suddenly, he found a place where some energetic humans gathered.

The colorful auspicious clouds flew directly there, and when they arrived there, they saw that it was a bar.

At this time, loud laughter, singing, and music mixed together could be heard in the bar.

Fang Zhixing landed in front of the bar door and was about to go in when he suddenly turned sideways.

Bang! A figure flew out from the door, fell to the ground, and landed on his buttocks.

The man staggered to his feet. He was a blond young man who reeked of alcohol and was drunk.

Then three more men came out of the bar, dressed in shorts and looking angry.

One person yelled at the yellow-haired young man, "Zhao Chenqing, you bastard, how dare you touch my woman!"

The yellow-haired young man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shouted arrogantly: "So what if I touched it? I like it!"

The three men were furious and rushed towards the yellow-haired young man, attacking him with their fists.

The yellow-haired young man was drunk and was not afraid at all. He went forward to meet him.

"Snake-shaped hand!"

The yellow-haired young man took a step forward, his feet shaking, his steps zigzagging like a snake, and he swung his arms and suddenly attacked.

Bang! A punch hit the cuckolded man in the face.

The cuckolded man was also very tough. He tilted his cheek, then stood still. At the same time, he clenched his fist and hit the yellow-haired young man on the stomach.

The yellow-haired young man immediately bent down like a shrimp.

The other two men quickly rushed over and hammered at his back.

Bang bang!

Three against one, the result was no surprise.

The yellow-haired young man fell to the ground, holding his head with his hands, screaming in pain from being beaten.

"stop!"

Suddenly, a burly man walked out of the bar and shouted, "Have you had enough of this? Do you still regard me as your master?"

The three who were beating him stopped angrily, and each of them spitted at the yellow-haired young man...
