Looking at the middle-aged man walking out of the small room, Li Zheng finally remembered where he had seen Yakumo and Ye Lan.
"Are you the cloaked man who helped me get my genes?"
Li Zheng pointed at Yakumo and screamed. The first time he met Kamui, he was forced back by the opponent's strong strength. It was the petite guy in front of him who helped him draw a tube of Kamui's blood.
I was quite grateful to her at first.
"You just recognized me?"
There was a hint of smile in Yakumo's voice: "Last time, the terminal transferred some of the receptionists to enter the matrix to guard those newly distorted creatures. As you can see, I have a good relationship with the 'doctor', so you accepted the task.
He told me about it.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have helped you get that tube of blood in the first place.”
"I see." Li Zheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise. The biggest role of his feelings at that time was really just running errands!
"But that's not right. Aren't doctors supposed to be businessmen in the matrix now? Why are they here?"
He looked at the middle-aged man in a white coat.
The doctor pushed the lens on his face, and the light reflected a bright and dazzling luster: "It's just some small projection methods. The clinic I established in the matrix is enough to meet most medical needs. I only need to put a sub-consciousness projection there.
Will suffice."
"Oh!! No wonder, I thought it was a projection at first."
Li Zheng nodded: "So this is your true body now? You actually look exactly like an Earthling?"
"Pfft~"
The doctor didn't speak, but Yakumo's hood could not help but laugh: "This is not his true body, it's just a bionic human body, made up of bionic organs and metal bones... Well, you
It can be understood as a robot."
"Robot...intelligent humanoid?" Li Zheng was surprised. Isn't this just like his own intelligent humanoid?
"No, strictly speaking, the bionic man should be an advanced version of the intelligent humanoid. You will never get this kind of drawing in the matrix."
Yakumo explained: "Because the materials used to make it are too complex and the process is too cumbersome, it is difficult to support their existence with the rigid rules in the matrix."
"The main reason is that there are too many bionic organs, and there is no environment to cultivate them in the matrix. The cost-effectiveness of bionic people is too low, and they are not suitable for use in the matrix. There is no so-called rule that cannot support it."
The bionic doctor was obviously not as aloof as the projection doctor, and he was relatively more talkative. Seeing that Yakumo's explanation was not detailed enough, he added: "There is a more advanced system above the bionic man, but it was listed by the terminal a while ago.
Enter the 'disabled directory', no one is allowed to enable it, and even relevant research data has been forcibly erased."
A more advanced system.
Li Zheng realized something and asked, "Are you talking about 'cloning' technology?"
"You know?" The doctor was a little surprised.
"What's this?"
Li Zheng smiled and said: "Relevant technologies have been developed on our planet for a long time, but because they were too anti-human, they were completely banned... huh?"
Speaking of this, Li Zheng's expression moved slightly.
The ban on cloning technology in the Matrix reminded him of the Earth's attitude toward this technology, and they surprisingly coincided with each other.
The doctor became more and more surprised: "The terminal's excuse for banning cloning technology was too anti-human. You know, I originally had relevant technical information. Since it was banned, even the memories in my mind have been taken away."
"Remember it in your mind?" Li Zheng was shocked. How did this brain grow? How could it remember an entire piece of scientific and technological information?
"You seem surprised?"
Yakumo said from the side: "Don't forget, he is a bionic man now, and his brain uses a bionic brain connected to a high-power memory chip. Remembering some information is as easy as storing files in a computer, and he doesn't know how to do it."
Confused.”
"..." Li Zheng was silent for a long time before spitting out two words: "Niubi!"
I don’t know if this kind of bionic human technology will be captured by hackers. If it can effectively resist hacker methods, it will undoubtedly be the best tool for technological research and development.
Think about it, the data that should be stored in a certain computer is directly stored in the brain, and can be directly accessed anytime and anywhere when needed.
What could be more convenient than this?
"There are limitations." The doctor shook his head: "The biggest drawback of bionic people is their lack of innovation ability. After controlling this body, the brain seems to be shackled and can only be used for work with known technologies."
"...Oh, it's okay then."
Sure enough, it conforms to the rules of the matrix. The more awesome something is, the greater the restrictions.
As a result, androids cannot develop new scientific research projects and can only do things that stick to the old rules.
However, in some specific cases, it can still be very useful.
Even a technology novice like Li Zheng can think of several scenarios that can be used, such as entering an environment that is not suitable for human survival to solve certain problems.
If there were androids in Chernobyl, why would anyone need to sign up to die to deal with the nuclear leak?
Or is it sent to the space station as a flexible information transmission tool?
If Yutu 2 was an android, the word "suspected" would have been removed from the photo of a suspected building on the moon.
A deep-sea submersible submarine has a problem. Do you need to make temporary arrangements outside?
"Okay, let's stop here for the pleasantries." The doctor looked Li Zheng up and down and asked Yakumo: "Did you bring him here for a physical examination?"
"Yes, he had some problems with his body control when he came, so I brought him here to have a look." Yakumo nodded and said, "By the way, he also wanted to exchange some white crystal coins."
"guessed."
The doctor said to Li Zheng: "Let your pets stay outside, and then come with me."
Then he ignored Li Zheng and turned around to enter the door he came out from.
Li Zheng settled down Miriel and asked her to wait outside with Sakura and Red Polly before following him in.
Yakumo was not invited, so naturally he had to stay outside.
The space behind the small door is not large, but it is divided into several different areas by the doctor, and each divided space contains a different mechanical equipment.
"Go to the third room for the physical examination and don't move while facing the machine."
The doctor pointed a few times and entered a place nearby that looked like a control room and sat down.
The physical examination process is very simple and much gentler than that of ancient survivors.
The doctor just took a few X-ray pictures of Li Zheng's bones and internal organs, and then drew two tubes of blood for testing.
After about twenty minutes, the results came out.
"Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with your body."
The doctor took the electronic report: "However, a mixture of five sense enhancers and Petrochemical No. 3 was found in your blood. The dose is not large. It is estimated that it will be completely metabolized in another thirty minutes.
Also...do you remember the last time I asked you for some blood?"
Li Zheng nodded. The doctor said that his genes were very 'interesting' and asked for some of them to be used for research.
"From your genetic map, I found that your cells appear to be very dynamic, but in fact they are aging rapidly."
The doctor turned over the report sheet and showed the results of the blood and genetic tests given by Li Zheng last time: "Look here, on your gene chain, there is a fault in a place where there should not be a loss. It is not known yet.
What is the impact of these faults on you? But the strange thing is that after testing your blood again just now, these faults have been repaired.
Moreover, your cell activity will be revitalized after the gene chain is repaired, which is very similar to the effect of the genetic medicine produced by a gene factory many years ago."
"Also, I suspect that the gene was partially repaired when you gave me blood last time.
Do you know what this means?"
"Uh...what?" Li Zheng was confused.
"It means that if your genes were not repaired, you would not survive for a few days."
What the doctor said caused Li Zheng to be struck by lightning.
"You mean... when I first entered the matrix, I was already close to death?" Li Zheng couldn't believe it. He once asked Lao Pu about genes, and the reply he received was that he had a recessive gene for diabetes.
, never heard of such a serious gene deletion?
"Theoretically, yes." The doctor nodded, and then said: "But you don't have to worry now, because your genes have been repaired. From this aspect, you are healthier than most players this year."
Channel 995 now has a large number of players, and the doctor has also obtained the genes of some other people. This is the conclusion reached after comparison.
"But... why is this happening?"
Li Zheng was puzzled: "Genes should be inherited from birth, right? Doesn't that mean that if I hadn't been caught in the matrix, I would have died suddenly in a short time?"
"I took the time to do research on this aspect and came to two conclusions."
The doctor pushed up his glasses: "First, as you said, it is a problem of congenital inheritance. Your life is destined to die earlier than others from the moment you are born.
Second..."
Under Li Zheng's gaze, the doctor came up with a conclusion that sounded extremely absurd to him.
"You might be a clone!"
Clones?
How is this possible?
Who would clone themselves?
Besides, cloning technology is strictly prohibited on earth. Who dares to conduct human cloning experiments secretly?
What's more, my memory is very complete. I remember that my parents died in a car accident, I remember that I was raised by my grandmother, I remember that I was taken in by a kind landlord...
If it was a clone, how could it have such a real life?
And if I was a clone, why didn't I find that I looked the same after becoming famous in the matrix...
Oh, I seem to be a time traveler...
Things suddenly became complicated, and Li Zheng couldn't accept it for a while.
"Of course, the second conclusion is just a guess. There is no actual data to support it, so you don't have to take it seriously." The doctor added: "Just think of it as your own innate deficiency. In short, the current results are good."
"is that so?"
It was said to be a guess, but when the doctor came out with that conclusion, Li Zheng was really frightened.
"Hmm... everything else is normal. Twenty white crystal coins, cash or card?"
The doctor flipped through the report, made sure there were no more problems, and took out his own inscription.
"... You're making a lot of money, aren't you? Twenty white crystal coins for a physical examination?!" Li Zheng was shocked by the price. Isn't this too expensive?
The doctor pushed the glasses: "Actually, it's the cost of two tests. Because we did a before and after genetic comparison for you, the last test is also included.
In addition, I also have to pay Yakumo’s agency fee, which is normal.”
"Huh?" Li Zheng was even more shocked: "Why do you have to pay the agency fee to Yakumo from me?"
The doctor shrugged: "Because I want to live, so I have to make some money."
This phrase sounds familiar.
Li Zheng squinted and asked, "If I wasn't introduced by Yakumo, how many white crystal coins would you charge me?"
"It's also twenty." The doctor pushed up his glasses.
Li Zheng: "..."
really!
This guy's charging standards are the same as those derivative stores that increase prices because of the increase in pork prices. When pork prices fall back, the increased prices will not fall back accordingly.
In a nutshell: It's time for me to make some money.
By the way, I should really thank the wandering businessman, because he was the only one who told me that I must stock up on resources before entering the outer city.
It's really in use now.
"Exchange it for me for white crystal coins..." Li Zheng said helplessly.
Want to default on your debt?
That is impossible.
Although the doctor is just a bionic man, he is actually incredibly powerful!
[Name: Unknown (Doctor)
Race: Bionic Man (Known from the target’s self-report)
Grade:???
describe:???
Lao Pu: Don’t count on me, he’s even stronger than the guy outside! I suggest you do as he says, otherwise I’m afraid you’ll be cut into pieces and sold as organs by him.]
"Okay, let me tell you the exchange ratio here first."
The doctor had long expected that Li Zheng would say this, and immediately said: "First of all, I only accept all kinds of biological materials here, and I will not accept them if they are below the platinum level.
Platinum-level biological materials are exchanged for 70 for 1,
Thirty diamonds for one,
Extraordinary five for one,
Xingyao exchanges one for three,
The king changes from one to nine,
Super God exchanges one for twenty.
How much do you want to change?"
This price is indeed much cheaper than the official exchange office, but it is uncomfortable not to accept materials below platinum, because the most abundant blood materials in Li Zheng's hands are blood materials ranging from black iron to gold.
"Exchange for fifty." Li Zheng chewed his teeth, feeling heartbroken.
He doesn't have much platinum-level materials, so once these fifty white crystal coins are exchanged, the amount will be reduced by less than half in an instant.
When Li Zheng took out his things, the doctor scratched thirty white crystal coins into Li Zheng's card with a special inscription.
Li Zheng looked at the pitiful two-digit numbers on his card and felt like crying.
If I had known this, I should have listened and searched the matrix!
well……
Mainly because Terminal, the terrifying whale, suddenly forced himself into the outer city, disrupting his plan.
Otherwise, in a few days, I will definitely have more materials on my body!
Doubling it is not a problem.
"Um?"
Li Zheng remembered that the mechanical mantis in his capsule was still being slowly made, and quickly stopped his plan.
By the way, I took a look at the genetic medicine. After there were no orders, a few robot figures stood there blankly, but they were not producing randomly.
I have to find a way to make money...
Li Zheng's face was complicated. He didn't expect that he, the most powerful person in the matrix, would have to worry about money after entering the outer city.
