Fang Zhao's house is on the top floor of this building. When he bought the house, half of the top floor was used as a garden. After Fang Zhao bought it from Xue Jing, he did not make any changes, but expanded the apron there.
After receiving the message, Fang Zhao walked out the door, and before long, he saw a black spot approaching from a distance. The black spot grew rapidly, and it was a transport drone that descended over the tarmac, but didn't get too close.
A black metal box was dropped vertically, right on the tarmac.
After Fang Zhao confirmed the receipt, the drone that delivered the courier left.
The box is encrypted, Fang Zhao tried to swipe his identity information, and the box opened automatically.
Inside the metal box was a transparent box made of unknown material, which contained a humanoid machine that looked like a robot.
Fang Zhao wondered, when did he order the robot
But when I saw the introduction of the item on the transparent box, I understood that this is not a robot, it is the tenth-generation game console sent from the headquarters from Flamingo. The main body of the machine is white, with black lines and red flamingos. logo.
Is this his new console? I really can't think of going together.
At this moment, Fang Zhao bracelet indicated that there was a communication waiting to be connected, an unknown number.
Fang Zhao thought about it and connected.
"Hey, is it Mr. Fang Zhaofang?" a rough voice asked over there.
"Yes, I am."
"Hello, I'm Zackley, an engineer from the Yanzhou branch of Flamingo Company. I'm responsible for the installation and maintenance of the machine. We show that you have confirmed the receipt of the goods. Do you have time today? If so, We will arrive at your residence within 20 minutes to install the machine for you and guide you to use it. If you are busy today, you can make another time.”
"I have nothing else to do, I'm at home."
"Well, please wait another twenty minutes, and I will go to your residence with my assistant."
Since an engineer would come to install it, Fang Zhao didn't move the box for the time being and let it continue to lie there.
"Boss, what is this? The housework robot you bought?"
Zuo Yu came over to send Fang Zhao a document that needed to be signed manually, because there was a box on the apron, and there was not much space for him to park, so he parked the car in the public parking lot downstairs before coming up. I was still confused when I saw the things on the tarmac. What did Fang Zhao buy a robot for? Do housework? When I saw the logo on the chest of the "robot", I became even more puzzled. When did the flamingo change to a housework robot
"It's not the housework, it's the tenth generation Flamingo game console." Fang Zhao said.
"That legendary tenth generation? Game console?!" Zuo Yu was surprised, "Is this a game console?"
After seeing the information marked on the box, Zuo Yu believed that Fang Zhao was not lying to him.
"Really. The legendary tenth generation looks like this? What did the designer think?"
Although he despised the designers of Flamingo in the words, Zuo Yu was still curiously circling the box, knowing that the engineer was coming soon, and he was not in a hurry to leave. The original plan was to send the document to Fang Zhao for signature and then return to the company, but this document is not particularly urgent, just send it today, he wants to see more here. If it was just a helmet-type and pod-type game console, he would not be so curious, even the latest model produced by Flamingo would not be interested, but now this style has poke his curiosity.
"It should be an exoskeleton type. I didn't expect to see an exoskeleton type used in the design of game consoles one day. It's just that the appearance is not imposing enough." Zuo Yu looked at it and was amazed.
Fang Zhao understands what Zuo Yu said about the "exoskeleton". It is well known that the hard shell that protects the body of shrimps, crabs and other animals is the "exoskeleton". Humans also have related projects, in order to protect relatives. fragile body.
For example, wearable mechanical suits such as powered exoskeletons were actually used before the apocalypse. Scientists in the apocalyptic period also started the exoskeleton project, but the technology was still immature, and Fang Zhao was unable to wear it for battle in his previous life.
After mankind opened the era of alien exploration in the new century, this type of technology has developed rapidly, but most of these technologies were used in military and medical applications. It is not that there are not many used in entertainment facilities, but very few and the cost is too high. No company is willing to try it. Unexpectedly, the tenth generation of Flamingo chose the exoskeleton type!
It seems that what the Flamingo official said before began to make changes in the tenth generation, which means that they have launched the "exoskeleton" project and have already implemented it.
"Unfortunately, it's just a game console. It would be nice if it was a real powered exoskeleton." Zuo Yu had envy in his eyes.
"What kind of power suit did you wear?" Fang Zhao asked.
"No. I joined the army very early, and I also studied in the military academy. I obeyed the collective assignment during military service. I was transferred to assist in the fight against terrorism, and I couldn't go out." Zuo Yu was very regretful.
"Can't go out" means not being able to go out of the planet. This is Zuo Yu's long-term regret. He wanted to continue to work hard in the army, and one day he will be able to go out. Unfortunately, he made a mistake and was kicked out of the army.
However, seeing the tenth generation of flamingos in front of him, Zuo Yu began to look forward to it again, "The purpose of flamingos should be to make more people have fun. Those so-called 'power exoskeletons' sold online are nothing but Its watch, technically and wearing feeling is definitely incomparable to the real one. Since the Flamingo designed the tenth generation as an exoskeleton, according to their reputation, the feeling after wearing it, even if it is not comparable to the real one, Not too much.
When Fang Zhao was talking to Zuo Yu, a flying car flew over.
Because there was no spare place to park, a middle-aged man in overalls jumped out of the car and showed his work certificate to Fang Zhao, "Hello, I'm Zachley, the engineer who contacted you."
Zachley looked a bit like the staff of Muzhou Farm, a little dark, with calluses on his rough hands, and he was very energetic.
After introducing himself, Zachley pressed somewhere on the transparent box, and four rollers popped out from the bottom of the box. Zachley pushed the box away first and asked his assistant to park the car on the tarmac.
"Where does Mr. Fang want to put the machine?" Zachley asked.
"That room." Fang Zhao opened a room, which he had prepared a long time ago. It was still empty, and nothing else was placed there.
After Zachley pushed the box into the room, he began to work with his assistant. While installing, he also explained to Fang Zhao the advantages of the tenth generation compared to the previous nine-generation models.
"This is a powered exoskeleton, which is wearable and will not burden you with weight. It is more convenient. For example, if you are tired from playing games, you can wear it directly to eat, drink and sleep. That is to say, in addition to bathing, the basic It can be worn all the time, and it also satisfies some players' pursuit of space marines power suits. If you can adapt to this, even if you wear space marines power suits in the future, you will not feel too much discomfort. Of course, the real sky It doesn't have many features of the marine power suit, the space marine power suit is a 'weapon', it's just a 'game console', it can only simulate that feeling, other than that, it will let you in the game The feeling is more real…”
When Zachley was explaining, Zuo Yu was eager to try, "Boss, after you try it later, can you lend me a taste?"
"Yes." Fang Zhao said.
After the installation and inspection, Zackley instructed Fang Zhao to put it on, which is actually not complicated, because it is automated, and only needs to confirm the identity and use permissions.
Fang Zhao can feel that he is wearing a "shell", but he doesn't have that feeling of suffocation and restraint. He swings his hands, swings his arms, walks, jumps, and so on. He is very free, and there is no sense of obstruction. Zachley said that he can wear it. Eat, drink, sleep, it seems to be true.
"Well, now you can enter the adaptation stage. It is recommended that you lie down. If you stand, once you enter the game, your nerves will not feel tired after a long time, but your body will still bear the burden, and you will feel some side effects after you leave the game. Sitting is fine, but I recommend lying down," Zachley said.
Fang Zhao didn't go out to find a bed, he just lay down on the spot, and entered the adaptation procedure according to Zachary's instructions.
As if the soul was pulled from the body, Fang Zhao felt that he was standing in an unfamiliar place, and he couldn't feel the original body lying on the floor.
There is a basketball in front, and the surrounding becomes a basketball court, with a wooden floor under his feet, and he is wearing a basketball uniform and basketball shoes.
"Mr. Fang, you have entered the adaptation program now, you can exercise at will, and we will detect your adaptation level." Zachley's voice came from his ear.
Fang Zhao stopped talking nonsense, walked over to pick up the ball, and the texture of the basketball surface could be clearly felt.
Indeed... very real!
Fang Zhao began to try patting.
boom! boom! boom!
The sound of the basketball hitting the floor mixed with the sound found in the air inside the ball, stimulating nerves of excitement.
Fang Zhao slapped and walked forward, the speed of slapping became faster and faster, and the movement of dribbling became more and more proficient.
…
In the room, Zachley looked at a series of charts displayed on the measuring instrument, and then looked at the comprehensive data on the far side, where "60" was displayed, and the top grid was 100. Generally, it would be fine if it reached 60.
Looking at these data, Zachley showed a relaxed smile on his face, "Not bad, if you can go to 60, it means you can use it normally, and you have adapted well. After a month of adaptation, maybe you can go to 70..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zachley was dumbfounded. He stared blankly at the fitness value displayed on the screen. After it stabilized at 60, he began to beat again.
61… 64… 68… 72…
What did you just say
Another month to adapt
Even before half an hour, the fitness value has jumped from 60 to 75!
"Hey, this is adaptable enough!" Zachary's assistant was surprised.
The data stabilized at "75".
Zackley smiled and shook his head, "I didn't expect that Mr. Fang's adaptability to the machine could reach 75. I'm afraid some people in the company will be disappointed. Auction machines, they will start to buy, and now it seems that those people may not have a chance."
"Master," Zachary's assistant Boken called.
"What?" Zachley asked without moving his eyes.
"The data has changed again."
"Nonsense, the data is always changing, as long as it is stable within a fluctuation range. Forgot what I taught you?!" Zackley said dissatisfied.
"No, look at it!"
Zachley looked up at the data on the screen, his eyes slowly widening.
The comprehensive value, which had been stable at 75, began to jump up again.
78, 79, 80, 81…
Although the rise is not as fast as before, it is indeed rising, which can no longer be explained by fluctuations in a reasonable range!
"This... This is too adaptable?!" Thinking of something, Zachley turned his head and asked Zuo Yu, "Your boss is really an artist? No part-time job?"
Zuo Yu was confused, "He's really just a composer."
