Quadruple split

"database?"

Ji Xiaoge turned his head in confusion and looked at Lu Wei, who was banging Cordoba's monitor like a wooden fish. He tilted his head in confusion and asked, "Isn't it a super power?"

The corner of Lu Wei's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly to the good apprentice in front of him: "What the hell is a super power? Little Pigeon, you are my apprentice after all, can't you look at the problem with a more professional approach... …”

"Hey hehe~"

Ji Xiaoge shook his body coquettishly and said sternly: "I think my thinking is quite professional. What you don't know is that superpowers in our world are similar to the magic and magic here! "

"I know what superpowers mean."

Lu Wei, who also has a profound knowledge of aliens and is no less advanced than Noyes and other high-level observers, snorted and said angrily: "But what do you think happened to Cordoba just now? Can it be explained by magic or divine magic?"

Ji Xiaoge shook his head obediently: "No."

Rubi tapped Cordoba's monitor hard and asked angrily: "So what do you think can be used to explain it?"

"engineering!"

"Well, if you let me do it..."

"database!"

"You opportunistic little girl, let me ask you..."

"have no idea!"

Ji Xiaoge was very honest and happily jumped up and answered directly, choking back a large number of professional questions that Master Lu had just brought to his lips before he had a chance to say them.

Bang!

Unwilling to teach the cunning Ji Xiaoge a lesson, Lu Wei had no choice but to grit his teeth and smash a hole in Cordoba's monitor. Although it didn't seem to affect its operation, it looked quite funny.

Mo Tan and Lu Jiang exchanged a somewhat funny look, and both continued to maintain a decent silence, for fear that Master Lu would divert his vent to another target.

"Ahem."

Master Lu also seemed to realize that his attack seemed a bit harsh, so after smashing a hole in Cordoba's head, he did not continue to smash it, but just calmly said to Cordoba who had recovered his language function (wrench band interference) Wa said: "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will remove your speaker."

Cordoba, who was finally able to speak, immediately swallowed back the curse words on his lips, gritted his teeth and said: "So please give me an explanation quickly, don't force me to kneel down and beg you."

"It's only natural for you to kneel down to me."

Rubi snorted, and then sat cross-legged next to Cordoba. He looked around at these young people who looked quite curious. He tried hard to keep a straight face so as not to look too proud, but the corners of his mouth were full of smiles. It was the pleated smile and the slightly raised tone that still betrayed him: "Ahem...since you are all curious, let me tell you briefly."

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Originally planning to consult Lu Wei immediately after his 'resurrection', but Cordoba couldn't find anyone and couldn't wait any longer.

"What's the rush?"

Lu Wei glared at Cordoba, and then asked leisurely: "Let me ask you a question first, what do you think the rune body is?"

Cordoba was stunned for a moment, and the line 'Now loading' was displayed on the screen. After a while, he finally said: "Is it my body?"

"Okay, I shouldn't count on such an unlucky thing like you."

Lu Wei rolled his eyes, then turned to look at his good apprentice: "Little pigeon, tell me."

Ji Xiaoge, who didn't expect that Lu Wei would throw the question to him, was stunned. He touched his chin and pondered for a while before tentatively saying: "Is it... Cordoba's body?"

"Correct, but not quite."

Master Lu smiled fondly, then shook his head slightly: "This thing is Cordoba's body——"

After that, he gently waved the board in his hand, and projected a tall, majestic, shining humanoid creature in the air. It was more than two meters tall, with a well-proportioned body and fine features. It wore the same style as a medieval knight. The retro-style helmet, with a large number of flowing radiators tied into a single ponytail on the back, is clearly Cordoba's latest rune body.

"Isn't this the rune body?"

Ji Xiaoge looked at the rotating projection in mid-air with some confusion, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"wrong."

As a result, Mo Tan suddenly showed a look of surprise at this moment and said softly: "This is the latest version of the rune body that has been upgraded by Master Lu Wei for several generations."

"What's the difference?"

Ji Xiaoge and Cordoba said in unison.

But Lu Wei nodded approvingly and praised: "Yes, although not as good as Little Pigeon, you are quite talented. If you weren't in enough trouble now, I would have made you an apprentice." ”

Mo Tan, who had absolutely no intention of becoming an apprentice to Lu Wei (the old man treated him too differently), shook his head reservedly and said with a smile: "Master, thank you."

Lu Wei raised his eyebrows and said leisurely: "If you explain it, I will know whether I have received the award or not."

Since the old man asked, Mo Tan didn't hide it and directly expressed his speculation: "If I remember correctly, Cordoba's rune body has been upgraded at least three times from the original version to now. Naturally, these upgrades and transformations were tailor-made for him. It is understood that there is nothing wrong with Cordoba's body, but initially... I mean the rune body that Cordoba first awakened from was not counted. His body, because you didn’t even know who Cordoba was at the time.”

"excellent."

Lu Weiyan commented briefly and comprehensively on Mo Tan's train of thought, then grinned and said, "So, what is the original rune body?"

Ji Xiaoge immediately raised his little hand and said crisply in the tone of answering the teacher's questions in class: "It's the autonomous humanoid armor you tried to complete. In the end, the mass production plan for the agent was shelved because the research on artificial souls entered a closed loop of failure."

"What a closed loop of failure~"

Cordoba snorted disdainfully and said indifferently: "Actually, it's just that you're not good enough, right?"

Lu Wei did not hit him directly this time, but said calmly: "You are right. In fact, I still have many works that are not up to par. If you want to become a vacuum cleaner that can only bark, , or a feces cleaning robot with a shelf life of only fifteen days, I am more than happy to fulfill your wish."

How could Cordoba easily succumb to a powerful person? When he heard this, he sneered three times and shouted angrily at Rubi: "I'm sorry, Dad, I was wrong!"

No way, a feces cleaning robot with a shelf life of only fifteen days is a bit too much, and Cordoba found it difficult to imagine why the thing was scrapped after the warranty expired.

"The failure of the soul center is not inevitable. I have said before that if I am willing, I can find a perfect solution to replace the 'artificial soul' and mass-produce countless high-quality products. One can be as strong as ten Cordoba The self-disciplined runic body.”

Lu Wei's eyes suddenly darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "As a researcher, out of the exploration of the unknown and the so-called scientific research spirit, I completed the theory as the last piece of the plan, and as a person who understands ethics and morals, I completed the theory. Intelligent creatures, I completely deleted that theory on the day it was completed. At the same time, I completely abandoned the plan of the autonomous rune body and destroyed all completed samples and trial machines. And you... Cordoba, you The awakened rune body is the last batch."

Cordoba didn't speak, but "Hmm" appeared on the screen. Mo Tan and others who were listening to the story were also waiting quietly for the next step.

"Cordoba's awakening caught me by surprise. At first I thought my experiment was successful, but after only communicating with him for a few minutes, I knew that this unfortunate thing was not an 'artificial soul'. , but an unknown consciousness.”

Rubi patted Cordoba's monitor and said calmly: "He occupied the thinking core I created to cultivate artificial souls, and automatically obtained the corresponding permissions, miraculously awakening in that body. It cannot be copied and has no research value.”

Cordoba, who was at that time, was not interested in those turbulent years, so he couldn't help but urge: "Then the question is..."

"Lan Xiang."

Lu Wei gave the standard answer without looking up.

"I'm not asking you which excavator is better!"

Cordoba gritted his teeth and patted the box under him, and said angrily: "I want to ask you, what do these things have to do with the things I saw during the fight before? What about the database you just mentioned? what happened!?"

Rubi turned his head and glanced at Cordoba, and said calmly: "You know, you are so unlucky. Compared with the artificial soul that I dreamed of back then, you are like a retard."

"I'm not unlucky!"

Cordoba was furious, but for some reason he didn't object to being called retarded.

Lu Wei ignored him and just continued: "You have to admit that even though you have the most basic intelligence and common sense, please note that I am talking about the most basic, but you do not have what it takes to be an agent. Knowledge and quality.”

"fart!"

Cordoba argued with reason and expressed dissatisfaction: "I have quality. I even won an award for my bravery! And I have never defecated in the open."

[So you have peed anywhere? 】

Mo Tan, Ji Xiaoge and Lu Jiang vomited in their hearts at the same time, but they didn't say anything. Ji Xiaoge was shy as a girl, and Lu Jiang had a record of urinating everywhere. As for Mo Tan... he could only He said that he has never done anything like that under his current personality, so he still feels guilty.

"Oh, I'm talking about the quality of being an agent."

Lu Wei sighed, a series of phone calls flashed across the wrench in his palm, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Do you think I would let someone who has the ability to think independently but has no knowledge of the situation on the mainland and no knowledge of the agent's mission? , are you a contemporary traveler who doesn’t even know the total area of ​​this continent?”

Hearing this, Mo Tan had already reflected, and a hint of realization flashed in his eyes.

Cordoba, who had given up thinking, said with an unhappy face: "Let's get to the point."

"Theoretically, souls can have memories. The simplest examples are undead, lich and the like."

Because Ji Xiaoge was also listening carefully, Lu Wei could only speak more seriously: "But a blank soul naturally has no memory. Everyone is a blank piece of paper when they first come out of the mother's womb. Theoretically, there will be no 'knowledge' and 'skills', but it is impossible for us to spend a lot of time cultivating an artificial soul, and the advantage of artificial objects is that we can load some basic knowledge into it in advance."

Cordoba nodded vigorously and said yearningly: "I understand, I understand. Ever since I was a child, I have always wanted to download words, formulas, tables of elements and the like directly into my brain."

Lu Wei's eyes widened: "Because you are..."

"Me too, even when I was a kid!"

As a result, Ji Xiaoge also flapped his wings and echoed.

"Well, you have a lot of ideas. It seems that you have been an open-minded child since you were a child."

Lu Wei nodded to Ji Xiaoge with a gentle expression, and taught earnestly: "But this kind of operation is risky for most natural life, at least until your soul completely stops interfering with the body, if you don't pay attention, you will be killed." It’s easy to burn out your brain. You are already very smart. It’s better to avoid such crooked ideas. Even if you do, you can’t use them on yourself, you know?”

Ji Xiaoge smiled sweetly and said, "I know."

"Um."

Lu Wei smiled with satisfaction, then turned his gaze to the thoughtful Mo Tan, raised his eyebrows and said, "You understand again?"

"Uh... It's probably a bit of a guess."

Mo Tan touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment and said humbly: "I don't know if that's right."

"It should be right."

Lu Wei did not let Mo Tan speak this time, but explained directly: "When I discovered that Cordoba was not an artificial soul, I immediately removed his database, and then every time I upgraded him, I will add a little bit of information that I think is useful and goes beyond just making him a fool. This operation is not complicated, because Cordoba's soul takes up almost no space, and the soul center that should be running at full capacity is basically not loaded. Pressure, there are too many places for me to write data.”

Cordoba's monitor flashed an [o(￣ヘ￣o#)] and asked: "Then why can't I feel anything? Is there no new knowledge in my head?"

"Because you are an idiot, the part recording the comprehensive information shows no signs of being triggered at all."

Lu Wei dropped the sentence without politeness, and then added: "But in another block, there were some attempts to activate..."

"What block?"

"Combat data block."

"What's inside?"

"More than seven million battle records, analysis reports and supporting video data with reference value."
