The mind is stronger than things, transcending the ordinary and becoming holy

Chapter 20 020. Refuge Room

"For ordinary people, bionic prosthetics are naturally better."

"For example, electronic prosthetic eyes."

Zheng Xiancun pointed to his right eye, "This prosthetic body can give ordinary people a strong auxiliary ability, especially in work. For example, you can observe things hundreds of meters away without a telescope, and you can see clearly in the dark." The opponent can also have infrared vision, thermal imaging vision, etc. If they are mercenaries or gang members, then bionic prosthetics are even more important."

"Is it because of the gun?"

Chen Shibo's expression condensed.

"certainly."

Zheng Xiancun nodded matter-of-factly, "The protective effect of bionic prostheses is self-evident. For example, subcutaneous bulletproof prostheses can effectively withstand the shooting of light weapons without changing their appearance, turning serious injuries into minor injuries. Wounds turn into broken skin.”

"In addition, there are bionic bone prostheses, which with built-in power pumps can improve the human body's multiple abilities in all aspects, making you a little superman."

"But genetic optimization does not have this function. The improvement it brings to people is very limited. It is difficult to withstand attacks from even light weapons. After all, the limit of the human body is there. No matter how optimized it is, it will not be bulletproof unless It’s a further step in genetic modification.”

Chen Shibo could only nod his head when he heard this.

"Master, do you plan to carry out genetic optimization?"

Zheng Xiancun saw Chen Shibo's thoughtful expression and couldn't help but smile, "What I just said was just an ordinary situation, but you are different. For you, genetic optimization is more practical than transplanting a prosthetic body. After all, you It’s not that mercenaries need to fight, but genetic optimization can extend lifespan and increase energy. Only noble people like you should take the path of genetic optimization..."

"Then how to guard against assassination by others?"

Chen Shibo asked with some confusion.

"Of course we rely on defense forces and bodyguards."

After thinking about it, Zheng Xiancun said softly, "Besides, there is a better choice, which is the electromagnetic kinetic energy shield."

"Master, you must have heard of it. This is a device that can withstand long-range weapons. It only existed on battleships and tanks in the past. But recently I heard that a single-player version has also come out, but it is still for military use and has not been classified as a civilian facility. middle."

…

After sending Zheng Xian Cun away, Chen Quan Shan calmed down a little.

Indeed, what the other party said is right.

For ordinary people, prosthetic bodies can increase the work efficiency of ordinary people, but for upper-class capitalists, implanting prosthetic bodies has no meaning.

After all, capitalists have bodyguards when they go out. They don't need to dance with guns or sticks. They only need to maintain their health. Getting a prosthetic body will create an extra loophole for hackers to take advantage of.

Therefore, genetic optimization is the best route for capitalists. After genetic optimization is completed, they can also learn some cyber martial arts to add a little more self-protection.

Thinking of this, Chen Shibo turned his head and looked out the window.

It was getting late, but outside the window it was still bright. It was the light pollution of the city. Endless neon lights and billboards illuminated the sky, and even the dark clouds were reflected in colorful brilliance.

Looking at the scenery outside the window, Chen Shibo suddenly realized that he had been in this world for four days, but he had never observed the world carefully.

After all, no matter how much you learn about it from the Internet, you can only see the tip of the iceberg of this world. Only by experiencing it yourself can you understand the reality of this world.

"There will be a chance."

Chen Shibo whispered, turned around and continued the holographic movie that he had not finished watching before.

At this time, the movie is coming to an end. The protagonist and his group begin to attack the company building that controls the city. The cyber lolita who likes the protagonist is also crushed into a wife cake. Only the protagonist is left in the team.

But at this moment, the door was knocked again.

Chen Shibo had no choice but to turn off the movie and go to open the door.

This time it was an employee of Umbrella Company. A whole team of fully armed androids stood in front of their villa. The leader was a real person. After explaining his purpose, he took out a painless gene extraction device. , picked up a little blood on Chen Shibo's arm, and then left in a hurry.

"It is indeed a T0-level company. Even for this kind of work, armed teams are dispatched..."

Chen Fan was secretly surprised. This android team was far more well-equipped than his family's android defense force, and it was led by a real person.

That real person's whole body looks like a prosthetic body. God knows how a person can transplant so many prosthetic parts. Isn't he afraid of becoming a cyberpsychopath?

But the last thing was finally completed. Chen Shibo breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the room.

"etc……"

Suddenly, Chen Shibo's feet stopped.

Because he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a hidden refuge room in this villa.

looking around?

Chen Shibo did not hesitate and walked directly to the elevator at the corner of the corridor, then entered the elevator and pressed lightly on the blank space under the floor button.

Rumble…

With a soft sound, the elevator started quickly, but this time it did not rise after starting, but went straight down.

After descending about thirty meters, the elevator stopped again. As the elevator door opened, a refuge room of about fifty square meters appeared in front of us.

The refuge room was very empty, with no electronic equipment or electromagnetic signals. The only thing there was was a physical vacuum box next to it, which contained some emergency food and water, as well as some nuclear battery lighting facilities.

"It's like a hospital refuge room..."

Chen Shibo immediately understood that all signals were isolated here, which naturally blocked the attack of hackers. At the same time, the elevator should have been specially treated to block physical intrusion until rescue arrived.

However, this is a good place to experiment with psychic powers.

Thinking of this, Chen Bi's eyes lit up, and he immediately sat on the ground, ready to drive the power of psychic energy into reality.

However, he looked at the row of dim lights on the wall, and then at the optical brain chip on his wrist.

After hesitating for a moment, he stood up and turned off all the lights except one, and turned off the optical brain chip completely.

Then, he sat in the darkness, silently feeling the imaginary space that only existed in his mind.

Empty, dead silence...

The imaginary space in his mind was as silent as the refuge room in reality. Only the souls of the four deceased were wandering around. However, when Chen Frequency Flash looked at Liang Xi's soul among them, he was slightly startled.

Liang Xi's soul seemed a little darker than before.

illusion?

not real.

Chen Shibo clearly saw that Liang Xi's soul was not as solid as others, but became somewhat transparent, which was definitely not like this when he was first born.

These souls are dissipating little by little.

Such a thought flashed through Chen Shibo's mind.

There is no perpetual motion machine in the world, so even the soul needs energy to maintain. Without energy, even the soul will cease to exist...

And isn’t the energy needed by the soul spiritual energy?

Chen Quan's eyes lit up.

Indeed, spiritual energy is involved in the birth of the soul, so the maintenance of the soul naturally requires the absorption of spiritual energy, which is the food of the soul.

Is this what psionics really do?

The energy that sustains the soul...

Thinking of this, Chen Shibo's consciousness immediately returned to reality. He spread his right hand, imagining the intersection of imaginary space and reality, and tried every means to squeeze out a trace of spiritual energy from the imaginary space.

Zizzi.

As a cloud of gray-white mist appeared in Chen Shibo's hand, at the same time, the only light in the refuge room flickered violently at this moment...
