Cyber Heroes

Collaborating with bandits, collaborating with thieves, colluding with thieves, if it were placed in the feudal era, this could be considered a serious crime.

Even in modern society, harboring is a criminal offense. The right to privacy is not an unlimited right.

But in this era, all behavior that does not conflict with Dyson's principles is allowed.

There is no force that can prevent an ordinary person from falling in love or even doing business with a thug who has lost the protection of civilization.

Ah, of course, if telling a mob of information about an individual or a group actually helps the mob commit atrocities, then this behavior is still regarded as an indirect violation of individual life and private property. The victim is free to seek revenge against the betrayer.

However, this power is limited to the victim and the victim's self-appointed agent. Others cannot interfere, and the lord has no need or right to interfere with this behavior.

Simply put, traitors will not lose the protection of civilization.

Enoch betrayed the town, but only the residents of the town had the right to take revenge on Enoch.

As for others, they are just on good terms with the traitors and will not be punished in any way.

Although Xiangshan thinks this logic is a bit awkward, he also believes that one person should be responsible for what he does, and even if the other person is his enemy, he should not be too involved.

Those friends of Enoch...even if the people in the town believe that they were also involved in the betrayal, does it have little to do with him?

No, it was before. Dr. Schultz carefully considered his words: You were pushed to the fighting arena when the tax collector came... I know about this matter. According to them, that matter was also Enoch planned it, and the person who did it was named Willy, a worker... However, Willy is already dead.

Dead? Xiang Shan became interested: Didn't you escape?

Half a month ago, Willy and Enoch went to the city. Then, Enoch came back alone and said that Willy was killed by thugs. Dr. Schultz explained: I'm afraid Enoch didn't just betray us. , and those who betrayed him...

I understand. Xiang Shan nodded: Enoch... I remember this guy.

He did not say what to do with Enoch. Schultz didn't dare ask.

Xiangshan thought this was quite strange. A part of his mind seemed to be reminding him that he needed to be cautious in judging others based on their personal morality. But there was also something telling him that the existence of chivalry had special legal support.

A long time ago, he...and other friends...seemed to have thought a lot about this...

——Who are you?

Whenever this feeling occurs, Xiangshan will think like this.

Why is martial arts that was originally an illusion turned into a reality through technology? Who are he and his friends?

Forget it, I won’t think about it for now if I can’t think of it.

Xiang Shan recovered part of his internal strength. Especially the Three Moves to Slay the Dragon. In this world where there is a lot of surveillance, it is not very difficult to hunt down a person - after all, Enoch uses an industrial prosthetic body, does not know any martial arts at all, and cannot survive in the wilderness. He can only escape within a limited area.

Once things settle down here, let's settle this matter.

There are still more than ten days until Recycle Bin Town resumes shelter. During these ten days, Xiangshan planned to move around this small town.

Dr. Schultz saluted Xiangshan and was about to leave.

Xiangshan stopped him: Doctor, by the way, I have a question. How is Yuki's child doing now?

The heart, liver, and kidneys have been replaced. The aorta has basically been replaced with artificial materials. The ribs are strong and only slightly damaged. They will recover after a period of recovery. The medical fees are also sufficient. You have already paid for them, hero.

From this battle, Xiangshan harvested three metal-based spines. For size reasons, he kept the one that belonged to Paulus and sold the Leif and Ronconi ones to Dr. Schultz for the cost of diagnosis and treatment and the related expenses of purchasing parts.

As a master, it is not difficult to spend such a small amount of money on behalf of his disciples.

Xiang Shan nodded: That's good.

He had previously wanted to see the situation of his disciples in person. But Yuki's mother is by Yuki's side now. As they approached the mountain, Yulia sounded a warning siren.

Of course Xiangshan is not afraid of Yulia. But he had no idea of ​​continuing to visit Yuki.

Xiangshan accepted Yuki as his disciple, on the one hand because he felt that in this era, having martial arts would be more beneficial to survival, and this was repaying a favor; on the other hand, he also needed a trustworthy assistant to help him complete the brain chip some operations.

Now, he has multiple chips attached to the brain-computer interface, several spare ones, and the accuracy of the prosthetic hand has also been greatly improved. The need for “assistants” is not that great.

After all, Yulia is Yuki's guardian and family.

I'm afraid in Yulia's eyes, Xiangshan just brought danger to his son.

Except for Yulia, the other townspeople's attitude towards Xiangshan was also mixed with a bit of fear. This feeling has only intensified since Xiangshan destroyed Longconi's biological brain.

Xiangshan couldn't even find a suitable base. He ended up moving everything to a scrap parts recycling bin.

The elderly and disabled people whose biological brains have deteriorated to the point of unconsciousness are actually the only people in the town who still have the same attitude towards Xiangshan.

After Xiangshan gave those guys some parts, they welcomed Xiangshan happily.

Xiangshan rested here. Afterwards, Dr. Schultz also came over to help Xiang Shan.

However, Xiangshan only asked Dr. Schultz to help with the rest and rehabilitation of the prosthetic hand.

A powerful internal skill master can plant countless talismans and poisons for you when preparing the prosthetic body. Knights are very cautious when it comes to the choice of maintenance division.

If you want to fight against the enemies of a world as a mere individual, you must be cautious.

After receiving the new prosthetic hand, Xiang Shan also used the secret technique of cleaning the whole house without cleaning to monitor the electronic equipment inside the prosthetic hand to confirm whether there were any backdoors that he knew about...

Ah, no, it should say confirm how many backdoors there are.

Except for his own pair of eyes, Xiangshan has never seen a prosthetic body without backdoors and loopholes since he woke up. This is almost standard in this era.

but……

——Speaking of which, the prosthetic driver loophole that I was all aware of has survived to this day... How come I have only slept for more than ten years?

It's not like Xiangshan hasn't thought about using Leif's prosthetic body directly. Leif's prosthetic body is very complete. Whether it is a vector injector, energy system, power system or other equipment, it can be said that he has the qualities necessary for most martial arts in external martial arts.

But the embarrassing thing is that Xiangshan doesn't have a suitable driver. Leif's own driver chip had been burned, and the driver chips obtained from Paulus and Longconi were incompatible with the high-performance heavy-duty prosthetic body.

This is a very weird point. The protocols used in Paulus' and Longconi's chips are actually very different, and there is no possibility of compatibility at all. This is still at the hardware level.

This was almost unimaginable in the era Xiangshan was familiar with.

If data is the vocabulary, then the protocol is the grammar. Only words arranged grammatically are meaningful sentences that machines can correctly understand.

The CPU and hard drive removed from one computer can probably be used if inserted into another computer. At that time, the protocols used around the world were roughly the same. Smart devices are pursuing “compatibility with more types of hardware.”

This also ensures that when users update software or hardware, developers do not have to program applications from scratch for new devices or new platforms. Previous programs are still valid in the new environment, and programs on low-end smart devices can also be used by more advanced run by smart devices.

But people in this era don’t seem to care about this at all.

It's hard to understand. Xiang Shan shook his head. In his view, technological development should be moving in the direction of convenience and unification. This kind of fragmentation caused by technology will only increase the operating costs of the entire society.

No, in this era, there may be no society to speak of.

Dr. Schultz finally fled the scrap parts recycling center. Xiangshan walked out. I found the disabled people holding new parts jumping happily at the door. They will occasionally fall down - this is the result of the extremely deteriorated brain often making operations that conflict with the balance system, which the system cannot handle and ultimately prioritizes the user's will.

There are four prosthetics piled at the door. One of them appeared to be a tractor that had been reduced to scrap by fire. That belongs to the nameless enemy. Leif's prosthetic body was piled on top, while the prosthetic bodies of Paulus and Ronconi were leaning next to it.

Dr. Schultz just removed Ronconi's prosthetic hand.

He walked over to the mountain and picked up Longconi's prosthetic body. This headless and handless prosthetic body should have many useful parts.

The time to prepare yourself is now. Xiangshan had a vague premonition. He will definitely face more enemies and more battles in the future.

This time the battle confirmed Xiang Shan. He did fight all the way through in the past. Only by fighting can he get his past back.

Although I don’t know what I lost before and why I ended up in this situation. But Xiangshan felt that since fate allowed him to be lucky enough to avoid death and wake up in this era, there must be something he needs to do in this era.

Xiangshan placed the silver prosthetic body on the operating table.

He even found a suspected target.

——The Father of All Machines.

According to legend, he opened up a new era and led mankind to get rid of the shackles of primitive evolution and move towards a new era. Not an emperor, not a god, a person with a completely different status.

There is no doubt that he is Xiangshan's enemy.
