348. Bionic Man
Hearing regular knocks on the door outside, V shouted outside:
"come in."
As soon as V finished speaking, the door to his office was pushed open, and a woman walked in slowly.
She was exactly the blond and blue-eyed foreign woman that Gu Zhuo had just seen.
Aisha looks very decent and is a very typical foreign beauty. At this time, she was wearing a simple white shirt, a pair of loose black suit pants, and a pair of high heels.
The high heels clicked on the ground, making a "tap-tat-tat" sound.
She has a very good figure. Even in a simple suit, people can't help but look at certain parts. However, Gu Zhuo was not interested in this aspect. He always felt that there was something strange about Aisha.
V saw Elsa coming in and said to her:
"Aisha, this is my guest, Gu Zhuo. Now he is also the one you serve."
After hearing V's words, Aisha turned her head to Gu Zhuo and bowed her head to Gu Zhuo respectfully, as if to express a gesture of surrender.
She spoke:
"Hello, my name is Aisha, I will serve you."
Her voice is more moving than it sounds in the V video.
Gu Zhuo was not used to being treated like this, and he didn't know how to react yet, so he heard V say to himself:
"Don't be too formal, Elsa is a bionic robot specially designed by me, and I made it myself.
"She is absolutely obedient and loyal to my orders without any second thoughts. She will do her best to complete every task I give, and at the same time, she will never betray me."
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo realized what was strange about Aisha.
She didn't exude the breath of a living person. She was perfect in every aspect, but nothing looked like a real person.
Sure enough, she is a bionic robot.
"knew."
After knowing that Elsa was a bionic robot, Gu Zhuo felt much more comfortable and less reserved.
And V also gave Aisha new instructions:
"Aisha, take Gu Zhuo to configure new weapons. However, he does not have an identity number or identity authentication, so he cannot go to a regular machine shop. Take him to the underground black market to find Hong."
"Understood, Master."
Aisha was very obedient to V's instructions. After she answered V, she turned to look at Gu Zhuo and said to him:
"Guest, please come with me."
Seeing this, Gu Zhuo glanced at V, and then at Aisha who was waiting for him.
"Go ahead and finish your selection as soon as possible. Choose some weapons that you are comfortable with. Follow Aisha and there won't be any problems. She will also bring you back after you finish choosing your weapons."
V told him.
"Fine."
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo didn't waste any time. It just so happened that he was also curious about what kind of weapons people would use a thousand years from now.
He followed Aisha, preparing to leave V's office with him.
Before leaving, Gu Zhuo suddenly thought of something. He paused, turned around, and asked V with some confusion:
"V, I have one more question."
"what is the problem?"
"Will our abilities be upgraded? I mean, under certain special circumstances."
Upon hearing Gu Zhuo's question, V's face showed a rare expression of doubt.
He thought for a moment before shaking his head:
"I don't know. At least, in all my long-term experiments, I have never seen power upgrades happen. What's wrong, you ask this question?"
"It's okay, I'm just curious."
Gu Zhuo shook his head, still not telling V about his ability upgrade.
So far, only he and Chaoying's abilities have been upgraded, and the rest have never seen a third person upgrade their abilities.
Let’s leave this matter for future research and discussion.
"Fine."
V did not pursue the issue of Gu Zhuo.
Aisha was still waiting quietly for Gu Zhuo in front. While waiting, she kept a smile with a perfect arc on her face, and her expression never changed from beginning to end.
"Then I'll go out with Aisha first."
Gu Zhuo said, following Aisha.
When Aisha saw Gu Zhuo following her, she continued to walk slowly outside V's office.
V silently looked at the backs of Gu Zhuo and Aisha, watching them walk out of his office.
After the office door closed and he was alone again, he sighed inaudibly, then turned his head and looked out the window.
Outside the window, there is the Arasaka Tower, a tower that symbolizes the pinnacle of power, wealth, honor and personal status. The white light on the top of the tower never stops flashing.
Over the years since Arasaka Tower was built, its lights have never dimmed.
It never seems to get dark.
The light was reflected in V's eyes, as if a river was constantly flowing in his eyes.
He didn't know whether Gu Zhuo's sudden arrival in this world was a good thing or a bad thing, and he didn't know whether his sudden change of plan and attacking Arasaka Tower in advance would bring about new life or destruction.
He murmured and said in a voice that only he could hear:
"Number Zero, did you also bring Gu Zhuo to me..."
...
Gu Zhuo followed Aisha out of the office door. As soon as he walked out, the office door closed automatically, and only a slight "knock" could be heard.
Aisha did not take Gu Zhuo through the passage where he came, but stopped directly at the entrance of an elevator next to the office.
She leaned her face towards the elevator door. A slight red light scanned her eyes, and then the elevator door opened.
Elsa walked in and stood in the corner. Gu Zhuo followed her and entered the elevator.
The interior of the elevator is silver. Instead of mirrors, it has four layers of silver coating, which looks very soft. Gu Zhuo didn't see surveillance cameras at the four corners of the elevator. They were probably equipped with nano cameras that were hard to find just like those in the laboratory.
But the biggest difference from the elevators he knew was that there were no floor buttons in this elevator.
Which floor you want to go to seems to be completely controlled by Elsa.
"This is V's private elevator. Only he, I, and one other person can use it. The elevator is very safe. The surrounding walls can prevent eavesdropping, signal interference, hacker intrusion, and sudden attacks by others. Not only that. , if the elevator unexpectedly breaks down and falls at a very high speed, it can even protect the safety of the passengers in the elevator.
"It's the newest security elevator, and it's expensive."
Aisha took the initiative to talk to Gu Zhuo. While speaking, she still had that iconic smile on her face.
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo nodded.
This elevator doesn't look simple.
"Miss Aisha, can you stop laughing."
Gu Zhuo held it in for a long time and still couldn't help but say this.
Although Elsa's smile is pretty, it still inevitably feels strange to see someone smiling like this at her.
"Of course, I just want to show my friendliness with a smile. If this smile makes you feel uncomfortable, I can change my expression. Also, you don't need to call me Miss Aisha, just call me Aisha."
After Aisha finished speaking, the smile on her face disappeared and returned to a normal expression. Now she looked like a normal foreign beauty.
"Okay, it's much more comfortable this way."
Gu Zhuo said, and at the same time lamented that talking to Aisha was exactly like a real person. She was very intelligent, and her various reactions were not as intelligent as those of his time, which were characteristic of artificial retardation.
"You seem to be very unaccustomed to talking to androids."
Elsa said again.
"Indeed, you have seen this."
Gu Zhuo had no choice but to answer honestly.
"I am a bionic robot made by V himself. I am equipped with an emotional system and a human nature system, so you can treat me as a normal human being. V often tells me that I have more humanity than current humans, and I am also more human than human beings today." Humans are more like real humans now.”
"This is also true. At least when I talk to you now, I feel like you are a real person."
Hearing Gu Zhuo's words, Aisha smiled.
She glanced at Gu Zhuo and said:
"Have you ever done any prosthetic modifications? It seems to me that your armor is not added to your body. It should be external armor."
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo replied:
"I have never done any prosthetic modification. This is indeed a removable external armor. Are there many people who do prosthetic modification?"
"a lot of."
Elsa answered him,
"After all, prosthetic modifications can make people stronger and closer to their ideal and perfect selves, so most people will choose to do modifications as long as they have money."
The two people were talking. As soon as Aisha finished speaking, the elevator stopped.
