My Apocalypse Fortress Vehicle

Since ancient times, human beings have been born with a fear of death, and no one has ever been able to truly understand matters of life and death.

To survive, no matter what means are taken, this is the desire engraved in the biological genes.

As for how to live forever and achieve immortality, in ancient times, some people relied on secret techniques or magical methods. But after getting rid of feudal superstition, people realized that the so-called elixirs, cultivation techniques, etc., were all extremely unreliable.

In the era that V lives in now, people still have a natural fear of death.

It was at this time that biochip technology, which was only available to the residents of Paradise Island, was born.

The eternity of the body can be achieved by mechanical modification. As long as it is maintained in time, it will never decay. Unlike the human body, which is destined to rot, wither, turn into dust that goes with the wind, or be buried in the soil and become the nourishment of the earth.

But consciousness wears off.

The human brain needs sufficient nourishment, and the extent to which it can absorb knowledge and information is also limited. Therefore, compared with permanently preserving the body, how to preserve consciousness has become the most important issue.

The birth of biochips means that the era of immortality for the minority has arrived.

The structure of the biochip is very exquisite. A small chip has a capacity equivalent to at least five supercomputers. Even if you put all the books in the world into this small chip, it will not exceed the load.

It can transfer the user's memory and store it permanently in an incorruptible mechanical body.

What’s even more frightening is that chips are constantly being upgraded.

That is to say, the eternal consciousness and the eternal body are combined together, and in this way, the eternal life of human beings is realized. The few at the top can maintain their never-ending rule over the people at the bottom.

They no longer need children to pass on their will, and they no longer need someone to inherit their huge property and carry forward their family. They no longer have teachers, and they no longer have universal morality. They just need to keep everything to themselves, and then lie on the mountain of gold and silver that will never be spent forever, sucking human blood and flesh, and licking the marrow of the lower class clean. Just stop and enjoy yourself.

At the same time, V also told Gu Zhuo that they would occasionally attract some healthy and smart young adults from the world.

The reason is simple. They occasionally need to replace their hearts with younger and more powerful ones to ensure that in addition to their brains and mechanical bodies, their own hearts are also vigorous and powerful.

This kind of top-secret information was something he only obtained after spending many years in Arasaka Tower.

Biochip technology is the most confidential, and V can still get a glimpse of the first two gravity-related devices. But the biochip behind it is completely aware of its existence, but cannot understand its structure at all.

Even geniuses like V find it inconceivable that biochips exist. I'm afraid that thing is a technological product that was conceived by the wisdom of countless generations of geniuses.

It is precisely because of the existence of that biochip that the guys on Paradise Island have become existences that have no specific age, no one knows how many years they have lived, and are closest to "gods" in the universal sense.

Listening to V's story, Gu Zhuo was curious about his true age.

Obviously V looks very young, but from Old Jack's stories and from his own words, it can be known that V is definitely not much younger than Old Jack.

But he looked like he was in his early twenties.

After V learned of his doubts, he told him very frankly that the reason why he looked so young was just because he had undergone another experiment.

Another experiment is much more normal than the bug-like existence of biochips, and is still within the scope of human imagination.

To put it bluntly, that technology is the human body cryopreservation plan.

Relying on the mature drug called "Prometheus" and injecting it into the human body, it can curb human aging and extend the human life span to hundreds of years.

During this process, people who inject this drug will maintain their youthful appearance for a long time and look much younger than their peers.

However, according to V, this is also a cruel experiment.

Because before Prometheus was fully mature as a technology, there were countless experimental subjects.

They accepted all the side effects of the drug, and in the process, countless people died, before finally successfully developing a stable drug.

And this drug is also used on wealthy people.

People on Paradise Island disdain them, but the rich in the world still flock to them.

After all, who doesn’t want to live longer if he lives a life of enjoyment?

The reason for V inoculating Prometheus is very simple.

He needs to have enough lifespan to spend time with the old guys on Paradise Island. His ordinary lifespan alone cannot be used up. He must use some external means.

At this point, what V has learned about, all the science and technology that can be called black technology, has been truthfully told to Gu Zhuo.

The rest is Gu Zhuo's own business.

That was all he could help.

After Gu Zhuo listened to V's story, he remained thoughtful.

That's all V knows, but there must be a lot he doesn't know. And those technologies must have been used on meteorites. The anti-gravity device alone was enough to make him miserable.

He knew nothing about other, more perverted weapons.

This battle may be very difficult to fight.

Soon, he thought of other questions:

"V, why do I think most of you are modifying prosthetics or wearing exoskeleton armor instead of building controllable robots, similar to mechanical titans? With your technology, you want to create such technology, There’s absolutely nothing wrong with it, right?”

V answered quickly:

"There is no problem. But controllable robots, hey, still have too many disadvantages.

"They are too easy to be hacked. Now even the human brain can be hacked, let alone the built Titan. There is no absolutely safe program in this world, not to mention, there are some malicious AI. So in the end, What people can believe in is themselves, not some Titan."

What V said made sense, but it also planted a seed in Gu Zhuo's heart.

Is there no absolutely safe procedure in this world?

But what if the program itself is his superpower mechanic?

He didn't believe that anyone could hack into his mechanic.

Thinking of this, Gu Zhuo immediately made up his mind.

He stopped thinking, raised his head, and said to V:

"V, I won't go see Yukiho tomorrow."

Hearing this, although V did not show any particular surprise, he still asked:

"Why?"

"I need to prepare some more things before the Night Owl is completed."

V pondered for a moment:

"But I have already told Yuki Sui that there is a new member who will meet her tomorrow."

"Is it more important to follow the formalities, or to prepare for the final battle? V, you should know better than me."

After hearing Gu Zhuo's firm words, V quickly relaxed:

"Okay. You are right. Rather than letting you socialize in these useless interpersonal relationships all day long like me, it is better for you to calm down and prepare for the battle.

"Is there anything you need from me?"

"Don't have a conspicuous address. It's best to be very hidden. No matter how much noise I make, no one will notice it. I also need a lot of steel materials, the more the better, whether they are common or rare, and Yes, no one disturbs me."

Having said this, something suddenly flashed in Gu Zhuo's mind, and as if by some strange coincidence, he added another sentence:

"I want a medium-sized truck."

Gu Zhuo's previous requests were easy to understand, but his last request surprised V. He asked:

"truck?"

"It's the kind of big car with four wheels, the kind that was very common in the era I lived in."

Seeing that V was still confused, Aisha stepped forward and showed V the information and images about the truck that she had just found in the vast information database.

Seeing the appearance of the truck, V seemed even more surprised:

"Why do you want such an old antique? If you need a car, I can give you a more intelligent and automated steam car. It is more convenient than this, and its functions are much better than this car."

But Gu Zhuo insisted:

"No, I don't need a steam car, just give me a truck. If there is no truck, please find me an off-road vehicle."

"Is it definitely necessary?"

"Um."

Gu Zhuo's attitude was very determined, because he had just decided to pick up his old business.

I originally relied on one car and one superpower to travel all over the world.

Now, in the future world, he has decided to do the same.
