And just when Chairman Gao was meeting with representatives of Confidential Electronics and Planet Energy, a strange guest also came to the headquarters of Johnson & Johnson Group on the other side.
This guest was very strange. Wherever he passed, he did not alert any defense systems.
It looks very much like the Ghost Rider, with flames coming out of its frame.
But its flames are more transparent, and human faces can be vaguely seen.
And if you have a 'face detector', you can see that every face is a scientist who has disappeared in recent years.
And where it passed, not only the recognition system, but also the staff turned a blind eye to it.
Going all the way up, he came to the headquarters of the Johnson & Johnson Group, a very old room. This room contained many artworks, sculptures, oil paintings, brush paintings, and original paper novels from the civilized era.
In the center of the artwork is a huge oil painting. Standing in front of the oil painting is an old man with white hair shawl and combed meticulously.
And the content of that oil painting is the same old man. His facial features are not only ugly, but even a little ugly, but he has an inexplicable temperament, smiling and looking down at the visitors.
"Uninvited guests are not good guests."
"Old Merkel?"
"It's me."
"Avatar or main body, which one would I rather talk to?"
Merkel did not turn around, but the old man in the oil painting suddenly opened his mouth.
"Little baby, you are still too young. If you live to my age, you will understand that there is no difference between 'clone' and 'body'. The real difference only lies in the nature of the human soul."
"Right, the founder of soul identification technology."
Soul identification technology, a company that has emerged in the past year or two, is quite popular.
And, it is a member of the Skull and Bones Society!
A trace of evil flashed in the eyes of the 'skeleton', and the transparent flames on his body suddenly turned into two venomous snakes. One wrapped around Merkel, who had her back turned to him, and the other climbed up the wall and covered the oil painting.
Not only did the two fires dissipate no heat, but they were eerie and terrifying.
However, Merkel did not seem to be affected, and the smile on her face became even brighter.
"It seems that you don't agree with what I said, so let me, an old man, give you some common sense."
"In the civilized era, the life span of normal people is 80 years old, and the life span of transformed people is 50 years old."
"In the cyber era, the lifespan of modified people is generally 30 to 40 years, the lifespan of bionic people is 20 years, and the artificial intelligence version can last up to 5 years. We can understand that its lifespan is only 5 years, while the lifespan of virtual personality
The longest maintenance time is only one year, and then it will wear out."
"Look, isn't it strange that with the development of science and technology, human lifespan has become shorter and shorter? What's more interesting is that no one cares about this."
"Then tell me, why is this?" 'Skeleton' said coldly.
"A mayfly is placed in the sky and the earth, and the ocean is filled with a drop of water," Merkel said leisurely: "The more I look up at the stars in the universe, the more I feel the insignificance of an intelligent species, and the more I become addicted to the iteration of technology and cannot extricate myself." p>
"Transformed humans are weapons of war, but they are also potential patients of cyberpsychosis. Madmen don't care how long they live. Androids are created out of nothing. For them, life is just a process from issuing orders to executing them, not to mention AI.
Having said that, it doesn't even have the concept of 'life'. The 'iteration' it is obsessed with is essentially seeking death. As for the virtual personality, is it really a kind of life? Perhaps, it is just a kind of 'nervous system'
It's just a directional modifier."
"Then according to your statement, the more advanced the technology, the shorter the life span. So what does it mean that you have lived for four hundred years?"
"No, no, what I mean is that the more technology evolves, the easier it is to blur the concept of 'life'. On the contrary, I, an old guy, have a very clear definition of life."
"As the saying goes, the Tao is originally speechless, and it is forced to seek. It is different from relying on poetry and music. In the early Yuan Dynasty, the appearance was true and constant, and there was no obstacle to adapting to things."
The flames in the eyes of the ‘skeleton’ suddenly became certain.
Merkel in the oil painting, and Merkel standing in front of him, all disappeared.
On the old-fashioned pear wood chair in the collection room, an old man was rocking the chair happily. He was ten times older than the one in the oil painting.
He stretched out his shaky old hand with bulging veins and opened the box on the armrest. In the box, there were two kinds of blue and white pills. His dim eyes seemed to be unable to distinguish which pill, so he casually touched a blue pill and swallowed it.
Go on.
"Ahem, do you want to have a taste?"
After taking the pill, his eyes gradually became brighter, and the light in his eyes was very similar to the fire on the 'skeleton'.
The ‘skeleton’ finally stopped being unruly and showed a look of respect.
"We are all explorers on the road of 'soul technology', and you have gone 400 years further than me."
"Haha, four hundred years are not as good as what you have achieved in one or two years."
"But I shouldn't live as long as you."
"Young people should not be modest."
‘Skeleton’ finally gets to the point.
"Outside, there are high-tech companies pressing forward step by step, and there are research institutes inside to drive away the tigers and devour the wolves. If we don't unite, there will only be one ending."
"The ending you are talking about is to join the research association and develop 'virtual technology' with them?" Merkel's eyes showed a strange look, "That is really a good choice."
‘Skeleton’ said word by word:
"Either control or loss of control. This is the law of survival in this era, and it is also the membership standard of the Skull and Bones Society. We cannot sit still and wait for death."
"So, you mean, your 'little friends' will come to help you?" Merkel said thoughtfully.
"With you, we have enough possibilities to break the situation!"
"Break the situation, break the situation," the light in Merkel's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Beheading is an ancient tactic, and it may not be inappropriate in this era."
"As you said, the more powerful the life form is, the more it will blur the difference between the clone and the main body. If you kill a 'Mr. G', with the strength of his life, there will be no second Mr. G. Then
After being framed within the research association, the Dogo Group will take revenge, Secret Electronics and Planetary Energy will rekindle their ambitions, and our opportunity is here."
The divine light in Merkel's eyes was extremely bright, and then dimmed in an instant, and her old body collapsed, completely losing signs of life.
The 'skeleton' was stunned. He was still unable to determine whether the other party was 'real dead' or 'suspended death'. Its 'soul recognition' was ineffective against humans for the first time.
Merkel's body turned directly into white ashes, and the cold wind blew and scattered them on the two pills.
Whether it is white pills or blue pills, they are all dyed gray.
‘Then prove to me that you can break the limitations of the soul and body!’
On the pear wood bench, a note was quietly left in place.
‘Skeleton’ hesitated for a moment, then picked up a pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
He knows that this is a test for the other party.
……
"Wow, so many weapons, prosthetics, and equipment!!"
Whether it was the pp leader or Sister Ji, including the calmest 'Classmate Zhang', everyone showed a look of astonishment.
There are thousands of weapons and equipment from 30 companies on display racks, and the lowest level is second-level equipment.
For players at this stage, second-level equipment, no matter what level it is, is the best. If the attributes are better, it will be the best among the best!
"We can really choose two pieces each, Brother Baozi, are you lying to me?"
The PP boss stared at a 'headphone-shaped' network implant warehouse with stars in his eyes. The hacking speed of this implant warehouse is 60%. For a neuroeditor, having it is equivalent to having an additional hacker career. "Haha, yes, pick whatever you want, choose whatever you want."
Baozi laughed "heroically", but his heart was bleeding. If he had known that the reputation rewards were so great, he should not have given up the sovereignty of the equipment under the pressure of old acquaintances.
You know, the first time he went to study how to choose equipment, he was rejected.
Why did it become like this this time?
Baozi rubbed his churning stomach and looked around. With the female driver Sister Ji here, he couldn't even think about breaking his promise. He could only cut his losses.
The best way to stop losses is to choose the best equipment.
As if with a mysterious feeling, Baozi walked to the last weapon rack, and a purple rhombus attracted him. This was displayed on the system panel——
Special second-level weapon-Purple Energy Mirror
Information test?
Comes with teleportation!?
Baozi's eyes suddenly lit up.
……
"President, I have completed what you asked me to do."
Another new male secretary spoke up. This male secretary is no longer a young boy, but a burly man with chest hair thicker than a towel.
The senior engineer waved his hand speechlessly and drove the other person away.
As early as when Baozi took away the 'Purple Energy Mirror', he already knew that the plan was completed.
Honkai Impact can sense Honkai Impact.
Honkai bodies are infected people who can also sense the aura of Honkai.
But this time, he took a trick. He sealed the power of the 'Purple Energy String' into the information weapon and asked Gao Yuanyuan to apply an information seal to it. As long as it is not activated, the aura will not be leaked.
Once activated, the senior engineer can immediately appear at the Assassination Alliance headquarters.
He would like to see if the 'Textile Machine of Destiny' is actually a 'Honkai Body'.
"Are you going to continue to convince the other two companies?"
On the sofa, the bird of paradise asked with its arms crossed, and the firebird on its cheek was particularly conspicuous.
Gao Gong shook his head and said:
"Members of the Skull and Bones Society never compromise. This is one of their few qualities of humanity, and Merkel of the Johnson & Johnson Group is even more of an old fox. The closer you get to him, the easier it is to be exploited by him."
"Tell the hackers to get ready. This is a critical moment. Don't give me any trouble. After this is done, they can do whatever they want. No one will dominate them anymore!"
Bird of Paradise nodded and said: "I understand, and I am here to tell you that the source of 'Avalanche' has been found."
"Oh?" Gao Gong showed full curiosity.
Bird of Paradise organized his words and asked: "Have you heard of the punk group?"
