About half an hour later, on the deck of the sand ship Dawn in the Red Sea in Africa.
"So, you brought such a weird guy to my ship??" Bedivere asked unhappily as he looked at the giant who was hiding his entire body in a black cloak with only a green face showing.
"It's not a weird guy, it's Dr. Virgil, the authority on artificial ergonomics." Palamedes explained again depressedly.
"But they are trolls." Bedivere complained again: "These days, even trolls can become scientists, which is really amazing."
"There are very complicated reasons for this." Dr. Virgil explained: "In short, I was infected with something called [force mutation virus (FMV)], which turned me into this."
Looks like. I was originally a human, and as long as I find the antidote, I still have a chance to turn back into a human."
"Virus?" The werewolf youth was wary of a large number of trolls: "Is that thing dangerous? Is it contagious? If you are a source of infection, you will not be allowed on board."
"Not to mention that the FMV virus strictly targets the genetic elements of a certain person for infection. The FMV virus used on me cannot be stored in other people's bodies. In fact, the virus was used to reverse transcribe the genetic elements in my body.
Once the reverse transcription process is completed, the virus will begin to self-destruct." Virgil replied with a straight face: "That kind of thing is gone long ago, not even half of the virus is left. I do hope that there will be a surviving FMV.
The virus can be studied. In that case, the situation will not be so desperate. I can still use reverse engineering to create an antidote for this virus. But if it is not available, it is not available. The only antidote serum in the world that can make me return to a human being is
Hidden in the academy."
"Really?" Bedivere still looked at Virgil doubtfully.
"I see." At this time, the Hulk did not continue to pay attention to the werewolf youth. Instead, he turned to look at another ship anchored in the stone pillar forest of the Red Sea, which was the British battleship --- Attacking Para.
Mides: "Not to mention the safety of the ship itself. In a place with unique geographical conditions like the Red Sea, are there British battleships to protect it? Indeed, with this level of security, even the academy
I don’t dare to attack rashly. What’s more, they couldn’t have known that I would come to a place like this.”
"Hey, hey, hey, listen to what others say before you speak! When did I say I allowed you to board the ship?!" Bedivere pouted and said angrily: "In addition to the ordinary adult crew members, there are many children on this ship.
.You will scare children with your appearance!"
"Well, don't be so formal, little Bedi." Palamedes said with a smile, "I'm just letting this guy hide on the boat for a while. It won't take long. We can settle things with the college."
After that, Dr. Virgil can leave safely."
"Even so, is this guy a troll? What if his troll nature comes out and he has cannibalistic impulses?" The werewolf young man still wanted to complain a few words------
"Hey!" A kid emerged from behind Bediwell and looked at the Hulk Virgil with curiosity: "Wow, isn't this Uncle Virgil, meow? Meow hahahahaha, so ugly! Even worse than what I've seen before.
ugly!"
"Uh." A big blue vein popped up on the troll's forehead, but he didn't have an attack. The other party was just a little tiger who didn't understand the world. A child's words are unbridled, and a child's words are unbridled.
"Do you know Dr. Virgil?" Bedivere looked at the tiger boy Obert in surprise: "Speaking of which--when did you run to the deck?!"
"Of course we know each other! We are familiar with each other, how can we not know each other?" The little tiger pouted and said with a smile: "Uncle Virgil is very cruel. Every time I try to run into his laboratory to play, he will be killed."
He scolded me and kicked me out!"
"Is there such a thing?" Bedivere glanced at the troll.
"Nonsense, I have never seen this kid before. If such a naughty little tiger ran into my laboratory, I would definitely scold him and drive him away." Virgil replied coldly.
Bedivere frowned, as if he had thought of something. Generally speaking, Dr. Virgil had no reason to lie about this kind of thing. It seemed more like Obert, the kid, was lying. But why? The little tiger spoke like this
It's natural and smooth, and doesn't look like a lie at all.
Either it's because Obert is a genius liar, or it's because the little tiger has some kind of delusional disorder.
There is another possibility------No. How is it possible? Bedivere rejected the idea instantly.
"Don't run!" At this time, another child's voice came to mind behind the werewolf youth, and Kate chased after him out of breath: "You, you cheated! They said that if you find you in hide-and-seek, you lose.
How come you didn't admit defeat and ran away?!"
"Huh?" The little tiger waggled his tail with a cheeky expression: "No way~ Since it's called [Hide and Seek], of course you have to [catch] to be considered a loser, right? You haven't caught me yet, so of course you have to continue being a
It’s a ghost. No more talking, I’m running away again! Come and chase me, meow hahahahahahahahaha------＂
After speaking, Obert ran away quickly and hid in the pine forest on the deck. The green plantation garden of the Dawn was quite well managed. Within a few days, the newly transplanted magic pine trees immediately became extremely dense, making
The entire green plantation garden has turned into a lush green pine forest. Obert shuttled nimbly through the forest. It seemed that Kate would have to spend a lot of effort to catch this naughty little tiger.
"Damn it! Don't run!" Kate chased after him. Although she thought it was impossible to catch up, she still tried her best to cooperate with Obert in playing "hide".
"They are indeed a group of lively children." Virgil commented without emotion.
"So, have you reached a conclusion, Captain?" Palamedes asked the werewolf young man in a deliberately mocking tone.
"Damn it...forget it!" Bedivere grinned and cursed secretly, "Forget it, let him get on the boat. But ------ Eve? Keep this guy under strict surveillance 24 hours a day."
Once he does anything detrimental to the ship and the crew on board, drive Dr. Virgil off the ship immediately!"
"Understood, Captain." The artificial intelligence navigation system of the sand ship replied. A small golden scarab golem flew next to Dr. Virgil and landed on his shoulder.
"Oh, it's amazing. It can understand the orders given by the manager so accurately. The complexity of this artificial intelligence is at least level 12." Then Dr. Virgil commented without emotion: "No, maybe.
More than fifteen levels..."
"The lounge has been prepared for you, please follow the instructions." Eve ignored the Hulk's praise and instead produced a holographic image of light on the ground, instructing Dr. Virgil to enter the cabin.
"Interesting." The troll followed the light away, and suddenly thought of something again, and asked: "Although this request may be a bit too extravagant, I still ask shamelessly. If you can prepare something for me,
A laboratory of comparable quality would be great."
"Huh?!" Veins appeared on Bediwell's forehead: "A mere refugee has quite a lot of demands------"
"It won't cost you too much. Just a few computers will do. Even if I don't have formal experimental equipment, I can at least use computers to perform simulation calculations." Hulk snorted: "If you don't want to, I actually have a small fortune.
I can give you the deposit, and you can also help me get the equipment I need for the laboratory."
"Tsk." The werewolf young man knew what kind of people like Virgil were. If this guy's request was not met, he would definitely keep nagging: "I don't want to deal with this matter. There are other technical personnel on the ship, you
Go ask them. Maybe the old mage and Saifer can get the equipment you want and meet your requirements."
"Very good." Virgil walked into the cabin.
"Is this enough?" Paramedis also asked through the communicator: "I'm sorry, your wishful thinking of taking away Dr. Virgil was wrong."
"No, that's fine." On the other end of the communicator, the resistance leader Preston replied calmly: "Just by removing Dr. Virgil from the academy, we can defeat the academy to a great extent."
Research. Just keep it this way for now. As long as Dr. Virgil doesn't fall into the hands of the academy, it will be a good thing wherever he goes."
"Since you say so."
"We will send you the [Mimetic Exterior] technology you want after sorting out the information. Please check it carefully." Preston interrupted the communication.
"Impatient guy." The big cat also turned off the communicator.
"By the way, Dr. Virgil seems to be an authority on artificial ergonomics?" Bedivere suddenly thought of something, so he asked: "Could the equipment he wants to get be ------"
"It's probably the equipment for making third-generation artificial humans," Palamedes replied.
"Could the material be...?!"
"Human flesh and human bones, yes." The Leopard Warrior replied in a low voice: "Use that kind of thing to embed an artificial human body."
"Wow..." Bedivere's expression suddenly changed: "Is it really okay to let that kind of guy mess around on my boat?!"
"Eve seems to be able to synthesize almost all carbon compounds using air and water, right? The beef we usually eat can be successfully synthesized. It is also a piece of cake to synthesize materials similar to human flesh. As for bones, we can only find another way.
Or use other metals to replace bones." The Leopard Man warrior analyzed: "In short, no matter what he wants, we must find a way to satisfy him and let him make an artificial human body."
"What on earth do you want to do..."
"This was Vivian's idea." Palamedes lowered his voice: "It's best to calmly give in and let Dr. Virgil do it. His third generation
The artificial person can look real. Using that body, combined with that [core], the child-like artificial person is realistic enough to serve as Hal's substitute."
"Do you really plan to make a stand-in to replace Little Hal?" Bedivere hummed: "In order to deceive Morgose, is it really necessary to go to such great lengths?"
"It's because the other parties are Morgos and Kaos." Palamedes sighed with a serious face: "If we don't do this, they won't be fooled at all."
