Chapter 2902 New Human Soldiers

crunch.

Accompanied by a mechanical friction sound, an elevator door slowly opened. Tommy took out a cigarette and lit it, while Flo standing beside him looked solemn.

"What's wrong? Minister Flo, what are you nervous about?"

Flo smiled awkwardly.

"This is the first time I've heard of such a method. I didn't expect that mimicry is so powerful."

Just now, Flo followed Tommy to the laboratory on the upper floor and witnessed how the crystal stones transported from the center of the distant ocean underwent several reduction reactions and turned into what Tommy called mimicry.

Such a magical substance made Flo feel extremely surprised, because they had stopped researching this for more than half a century. Because the research costs and risks were too high, the research on these high-energy substances came to a standstill.

Another point is that the research has no direction, and with the clean and efficient energy produced by Steka, this research on crystal energy has almost ended.

Although Flo was very happy, he was even more afraid. This factory used to be a manufacturing workshop. The Science Department added some machines according to Tommy's requirements and gradually transformed it into a fully automated research factory.

Although Tommy allows Flo to come in now, Flo is worried about his future safety after knowing such technology and secrets.

Stok has now begun to gradually integrate into human society, and many high-level officials have also understood why those high-level officials of mankind in the past died inexplicably, because the powerful Stok can do so many things.

But now it's too late. The power is firmly in Tommy's hands. No one can resist Tommy, so knowing the secret is very dangerous.

Tommy took Flo to a laboratory. Looking at everything in the laboratory, Flo understood what Tommy wanted to do after just a few glances.

As a leading scientist in the contemporary scientific community covering the three major fields of biochemistry and physics, Flo was actually excluded by the scientific community in the early years, because science has been completely tied to money and power in the past, and Flo is obsessed with it. research, leading to complete isolation.

After Tommy solved most of the problems, he directly promoted Flo to the position of Minister of Science, responsible for all matters, and gave Flo a lot of funding, allowing him to study whatever he wanted, even allowing Flo to do so at any cost.

This made Flo, who had been isolated for a long time, feel unprecedented warmth. However, it was after becoming the Minister of Science that Flo learned a lot and began to feel the difficulty.

It was not that Flo was not good at interacting with others in the past. On the contrary, he had many friends. But in the eyes of others, he was just a good guy and a madman who loved research.

The most important reason why Flo does not accept things other than science is that he knows very well that once he enters that circle, he is no longer a scientist, but a scum who uses his past scientific research achievements to cheat people.

It was this excitement in his heart that allowed Flo to stay away from it all and continue to concentrate on his research. Although various parties used funding to threaten Flo and forced him to publish some research results according to their requirements, Flo relied on a compromise method to survive in the cracks over the years.

Although he has won the favor of President Tommy and obtained everything, the longer he works, the more he feels uneasy. This president is rather paranoid in his pursuit of science and technology.

This paranoia is a paranoia about the future. Flo has always believed that technology is just a means to help humans overcome difficulties, not a means for humans to survive.

But what Tommy asks Flo now is to let technology decide everything about the future of mankind, which seems extremely unreliable to Flo.

"What do you think of the current mimicry?"

Flo looked at Tommy in confusion, but after thinking it over he spoke.

"This substance can make human life extremely convenient. I can list many ways it can make human life more convenient."

Tommy shook his head, and Flo immediately stopped giving examples. He observed Tommy's every move, hoping to see the answer from Tommy's expression. Tommy suddenly laughed and shook his head.

"Minister Flo, you seem to be used to observing others before speaking, but what I want to hear is not flattery, nor idealism, but the first thing that comes to your mind after you learn about this substance. Please speak according to your heart. I don't want you to please me, and I don't need you to speak to win my trust."

The smile on Flo's face disappeared, he lowered his head, his expression became serious, and finally Flo said.

"If such mimicry is used to develop weapons, I think the only way to maximize the value of this kind of material is to develop weapons."

Tommy clapped his hands.

"I thought so too, Minister Flo, but before that I have a question. I need you to master a technology."

Flo nodded and bowed. He knew very well that the technology Tommy was talking about was definitely not simple.

"Currently, mimicry can generate all substances through some set data templates, but this is not what I want."

"Are there weapons more powerful than nuclear bombs?"

Tommy shook his head and said instead.

"I need these mimics to achieve all the functional responses of humans, or even exceed these functional responses."

he asked as Flo froze.

"How about making a weapon?"

Tommy said.

"Please imagine, Minister Flo, what do you think would happen if I had a group of soldiers that could be recycled?"

Flo's eyes widened in shock and she looked at Tommy in disbelief.

“Although we can achieve some or similar robot-like mobility, it is very difficult to achieve the same as humans.”

Tommy's smiling year arrived.

"That's why I brought you here, Minister Flo. I hope you can realize the anthropomorphic technology I mentioned, and use mimicry to construct human-like body functions, or even surpass them."

Flo was feeling uncomfortable at this moment, because such technology would be difficult to achieve, let alone now, even in the next hundred years. Even though the current AI has reached the level of anthropomorphism, this technology is to create new humans. Such a complicated thing is probably something that only the Creator can do.

Tommy laughed, then shook his head.

"It seems that you have misunderstood what I meant. What I need is human functions, not human thinking."

Flo became even more confused.

"Mr. President, you mean that only human limbs are needed?"

Tommy nodded. "That's not difficult to do. We just need to conduct experiments. But there is no program to control the body. It's just..."

“There are so many things you don’t need to know.”

Tommy's tone suddenly hardened, and Flo nodded hastily.

"President Tommy, please tell me about the specific functions of the framework first. I will start to build the preliminary plan tonight."

Tommy nodded and took Flo out of the laboratory, then pointed to an ecological area covered in glass in the distance. There were mountains, rivers, complete housing facilities, and even a small park. The area was very large, like a small community.

Tommy said with a smile.

"Wait until your plan is almost complete before leaving here. After all, I don't want you to be disturbed in any way. During this period, please carefully select your list of subordinates and build a team of scientists of at least 300 people. I can give you the highest degree of freedom. But you need to keep this work completely confidential. If anyone other than these 300 people knows about this,

Flo looked at Tommy in horror and Tommy smiled.

"I was just kidding."

Flo laughed awkwardly. He knew that this was definitely not a joke. If 300 people were to conduct research in such a place, it would have to be a long-term effort, and they might even not be able to go out. This would be a huge mental consideration for the people who were selecting them.

Flo immediately had some ideas about the personnel in his mind, and he nodded in understanding.

"I promise to complete the task you, President, have assigned to us."

Tommy nodded.

"I'm not trying to threaten you to produce as soon as possible, but because this matter cannot be delayed, I will give you enough time and there won't be too many restrictions."

Flo nodded in understanding, and then Tommy asked.

"If you start your research, you can give me a list of who you want to assign the work of the Science Department outside to."

Flo hummed, then he asked.

"Mr. President, can you let me go back and say goodbye to my wife and daughter?"

Tommy shook his head.

"Either bring them in, or walk out of here when this is over."

Tommy knew very well that the new Minister of Science was a slippery man. If he could not be restrained effectively, he would do everything he could to make things difficult in the end.

"So I hope you can study it well."

Tommy said this and Flo nodded. He knew that this had to be done now, otherwise the Minister of Science would have to be replaced, and such a replacement would mean the end of his future scientific research career.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Tommy asked, Flo thought about it and finally spoke.

"Mr. President, the data calculation of Steka is currently in progress. We have also found many ways to improve Steka's combat effectiveness. Combined with some of our most advanced technologies, the combat capability of the mixed forces of humans and Steka is unprecedentedly powerful."

Tommy knew what Flo wanted to say, and he smiled and shook his head.

"This level of combat power is not enough. I can tell you clearly, Minister Flo, that wars will break out in the future. Such wars will not be small-scale, nor will they be limited to the United States. Instead, they will affect the entire world."

After Tommy finished speaking, Flo's expression became serious. He knew that Tommy was not joking, otherwise Tommy would not have forced him to produce corresponding results.

"I understand, Mr. President. I will come up with preliminary results within three months."

Tommy nodded, then pointed to the ecosphere community below and said.

"Go down and take a look at everything inside. I have given you enough permissions."

Flo nodded and walked down the stairs, but with every step he took, he felt unusually heavy, because he knew that now he could no longer study the technology he liked, and he had to work hard to build a new army for Tommy. If he didn't work hard, he would definitely be eliminated.

After Flo entered the ecosphere, he found that Tommy had left. He looked at everything in front of him. There was a nice lake with a small island on it. There were all kinds of self-service shops around it, including all kinds of supplies in life. Such an ecological community was really good.

After walking around, Flo found that this place was indeed very nice. Although he wanted to bring his wife and daughter over, he quickly gave up the idea. After all, no one knew how long they would stay here, or even whether they could walk out of here alive.

"It's obviously pointless for me to think about these issues."

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Tommy stood up from his chair in the conference room. All the ministers in the conference room stood up and bowed, but they were all surprised by the temporary minister of the Ministry of Science. Tommy, who saw everything, smiled.

"Minister Flo is temporarily unable to continue to serve as Minister of Science because he has an extremely important research project. So Court will temporarily take over as Minister of Science. I hope everyone can continue to cooperate with each other as always."

Seeing everyone nod, Tommy turned and left. Justin followed him and came to Tommy's office.

"Mr. President, I think it's time to take back some of the special investigator's authority."

Tommy had known that Justin would bring up this matter because the society was now fiercely criticizing some of the investigations that Li Wei had conducted previously.

"I think it's good to maintain the status quo. There's no need to respond to some criticism."

Justin said with a serious expression.

"Before, because the people of those big families had indeed committed too many crimes, the existence of special investigators was understandable, but now..."

"Director Justin, I want you to consider one thing. If I revoke some of Li Wei's special investigator's authority, does it mean that I am giving in because I am afraid of complaints from the public?"

Justin was stunned. Indeed, if the people felt this way about this matter, then the huge public opinion would be used by interested people in the future as an important strategy to bring down Tommy.

"So let's not talk about this anymore. The authority of the special investigators is permanent and irrevocable. No matter what they do in the future, as long as they find enough evidence, it is understandable to arrest and interrogate them directly. At least the special investigators can serve as a strong deterrent to those new capitals that want to grow and develop. After all, if they rely on abnormal means, they will be dismembered and shredded like those big families in the future."
