My own war game

Chapter 313 My name is KITT
No. 156 Wutong Street, night.

He Chi woke up from his bed and stretched his body.

After sleeping for 12 hours, he felt that the fatigue accumulated from the continuous operations had been recovered a lot.

In order to develop the robot's capabilities, he worked almost day and night for twenty days, spending every day in surgery.

Although his physical strength was already very high and all indicators were at the peak of human capabilities, such high consumption was still too much for him to bear.

But he had to speed up, not only because Lola's body couldn't hold on, but also because the next copy was approaching.

"The copy will be launched in 40 hours, players please be prepared." The system's voice began to urge in his ears. He Chi looked up at the watch and found that the time was early in the morning. He listened carefully and heard bursts of TV sounds coming from outside.

Walking into the living room, He Chi found Professor Craig sitting on the sofa, holding a remote control and watching an old American TV series from the 80s, which was also about artificial intelligence.

The spider robot that has been inseparable from He Chi recently was also standing aside, its red compound eyes staring at the screen, no one knew what it was doing.

"He, you're here. How was your rest?" Professor Craig was still looking at the TV screen without turning his head.

"BOSS, are you nervous? Why?" He Chi saw that the hand holding the remote control was shaking constantly.

"He, I'm very nervous." Professor Craig said in a low voice, "It's been more than 40 years since I became interested in artificial intelligence. This is the first time I'm standing on the threshold of success."

“If it can complete the operation with you tomorrow, it will prove that AI can completely replace humans in certain fields. This will be epoch-making.” Professor Craig’s face even flushed as he spoke, and then he whispered, “If it fails, then I may not have a chance to try again.”

"Why? Can't it be readjusted?" He Chi was a little surprised.

"He, there are no two leaves in the world that are exactly the same. The uniqueness of things is the most attractive thing." The professor reached out to take the robot. "KITT's learning logic is unique. Once the learning module is fixed, even I can't make an identical artificial intelligence. In a sense, it is unique."

"And I will never be able to create a better AI than KITT."

"KITT? Is that its name? It seems to have the same name as the protagonist in this TV series?" He Chi looked at the little guy, and then glanced at the old TV series on TV.

"Yes, it is also my favorite artificial intelligence image. I hope it can bring us good luck." The professor muttered to himself while staring at a self-driving black car on the screen.

The next day, the operation began as scheduled.

A special scalpel was held firmly by the mechanical extension arm, making a small incision on the smooth skin.

"If someone had told me before that they would use a robot to perform craniotomy autonomously, I would have thought they were a scammer looking for funding," said Ms. Caroline, who was standing outside the operating room with her arms folded, looking inside.

"If someone had told me six months ago that a person could perform 15 operations in a single day and keep doing this for half a month, I would have thought he was crazy." Dr. Molina also joined in, and then she looked at the situation inside and said with a slightly emotional tone.

"Humans have been using robotic arms to perform surgery for more than a decade, but that was only as an auxiliary means. Top surgical experts still trust their own hands more. This is the first time that robots have been put on the stage to perform such a complex operation."

“We may be witnessing history.”

The operation has entered the middle stage, and dense tissue fibers and nerve networks are unfolding in He Chi's right eye.

The magician's wound cleaning work had once made him extremely anxious, but it was nothing compared to the current surgery. If there was any slight mistake, Lola would die on the operating table.

Fine beads of sweat began to appear on He Chi's forehead.

"Help me wipe my sweat." He Chi said softly.

A robotic arm grabbed a piece of gauze and stretched it to He Chi's forehead, steadily wiping away the sweat there. The robot's other hands were even helping to hook open the skin of the incision.

The scalpel was inserted into the wound again, but suddenly a dizzy feeling came over him. "Damn it! Is it too late?" He Chi cursed in a low voice.

The side effects of 3D vision applied to the human body struck again, and He Chi felt a tingling sensation in his right eye.

He Chi pressed the scalpel down and then carefully retracted it again, repeating this several times. Finally, He Chi confirmed that it was difficult for him to complete the next steps in his current condition.

"I can only try my luck. I hope it has learned well enough during this period of time."

"You complete the last step." He Chi gave the robot in front of him the simplest command.

The spider robot's compound eyes lit up, as if confirming its master's order for the last time, and then a mechanical arm extended a sharp blade.

Half an hour later, the lights in the operating room went out.

When two doctors walked into the disinfection room, He Chi was leaning back in a chair, pressing his right eye with one hand and holding a bottle of nutrient solution in the other.

"It should be successful. I'll trouble you two to observe the rest." The Oriental man only said this one sentence, then forced himself to stand up and walked towards the exit.

Ms. Caroline walked up quickly and said, "You're not in good condition. I'll give you a check-up right away."

"No, I just need to rest for a while." He Chi stood up without the female doctor's support, and returned to his room with some staggering steps, while the little robot followed him in jumps.

He was about to disappear.

[The copy is ready to start: at sunset, time: May 1945, location: Okinawa Island, mission objective: not yet decrypted]

"There are only ten minutes left before entering the dungeon. Players please be prepared." The system's urging voice came to my ears again.

He Chi returned to his supplies, hung a "Resting" sign on the door, and then took out something like a square brick from the drawer.

A large Huawei rugged phone.

According to the reward from the previous copy, He Chi could carry an item weighing less than 500 grams into the copy, but because Lola was seriously ill, he did not think too much about what to bring.

Just as the next copy was about to open, He Chi hurriedly remembered what he had bought half a year ago.

When he fell off the cliff, his cell phone was broken, and he almost lost his life because he couldn't call for help. So when he had some extra money, he bought a practical and full-featured phone.

It is waterproof within 15 meters and dustproof at industrial level. When testing the quality, the salesperson even cracked a walnut in front of him.

Although the telephone function cannot be used on the other side due to the lack of a base station, taking photos, video recording, audio recording, and a series of ancillary functions are very practical.

He Chi lay on the bed, holding the phone next to him, waiting to enter the copy.

"The copy will be launched at sunset. Countdown is five seconds."

"5, 4, 3..."

He Chi's vision had begun to blur, but the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

I saw a blurry black shadow twisting twice on the table and then standing on him.

A white light flashed, and the brick-sized phone was still lying on the bed intact, but a small thing worth millions of dollars disappeared.
