Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 666 Osteogenesis Machine

Whether in the Nexus District, the Emerald District, or the Dawn District, residents who had finished their work gathered in front of the huge glass windows, gazing at the sky and watching the Celestials' incomplete bodies being repaired.

Whether they are light-based life forms, electromechanical life forms, or humans, at this moment, everyone is looking up at the unreachable celestial beings.

In the past, their presence was only mentioned in fragments of history, acting as agents to carry out their will on Earth. Now, the true form of this behind-the-scenes ruler can finally be seen. Everyone's curiosity was greatly satisfied, yet they were both afraid and unable to resist watching.

Zhou Yi, however, thought it was normal.

It's like an emperor recuperating in the courtyard of a commoner's house. Since the courtyard doesn't have walls yet, everyone naturally goes to watch.

The old king said, "Behind their fear and curiosity lies their yearning for and envy of the strong."

"The direct benefit is that the Celestials' health retreat has attracted many new tourists. In the past, many Skywalkers and Sea Lords were resistant to and uninterested in Mars. But because the Celestials have descended to recuperate here, they have also flocked over."

"They are unsure how long the aliens will stay here and don't want to miss the opportunity to observe. So the number of visitors has increased dramatically in the past week, with more than 3000 new tourists from other places who have never been to a Mars base before."

"A significant portion of these tourists are local rulers. They are very attentive and perceptive to changes in the situation, and they come here to observe the movements of the Celestials."

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "That's good news. It helps boost our tourism industry."

"In fact, some people have even suggested using aircraft here to observe the Celestials more closely, or even touch and talk to them, and they don't mind paying more money."

"..."

Zhou Yi's smile froze.

There are always people who court death in any era.

"Of course that's impossible."

The old king seemed to be joking: "You said you'd give it a try, has anything come of it yet?"

"We'll have to wait a little longer. Senior, patience is a virtue."

The usually composed old king, upon hearing that it could narrow the power gap with the celestial beings, is now becoming somewhat restless.

Zhou Yi was also at a loss.

Although initial progress has been smooth, experiments are something that cannot be rushed.

Even preliminary conclusions need to be repeatedly verified through practice.

However, he still revealed a basic fact: "Two hydrogen-based life forms have taken two separate approaches to repairing Celestial Being."

"The first path is to try to find new secondary units that can accommodate stardust particles."

"The second path is to repair the existing core gem, which is the glass man."

"Both directions are being pursued simultaneously, and both have made some progress, but whether they can be applied in practice is still under control testing. Because there is only this one celestial being sample, each experiment needs to be conducted using it alone..."

The old king's voice froze: "You... used celestial beings for biological experiments?"

"Sure."

Zhou Yi said matter-of-factly, "This is exactly what the Celestial Being camp needs hydrogen-based life forms to do. This Celestial Being is in danger of dying at any moment, so we brought it here to undergo experiments and research. It's a way to try and save its life."

"Then... would it be feasible to implant electromechanical life forms into the bodies of celestial beings?"

The old king suggested, "I am also a kind of electromechanical life form, so I know that electromechanical life forms are highly efficient in processing information, consume very little energy, and have strong survivability. However, I don't know what kind of life form Stardust is, but if Stardust can use electromechanical life forms as secondary units, it can solve many problems."

"In this way, it might be possible to influence the entire Celestial Being community through electromechanical life."

Zhou Yi said, "Unfortunately, it won't work."

for this.

The celestial beings had already investigated and experimented with this.

The conclusion was no. They believed that electromechanical life was very dangerous, a rare life form that could deeply modify itself, and inherently lacked fear and awe.

Ordinary flesh-and-blood life forms strengthen and modify themselves within relatively safe areas, such as flesh, bones, nerves, skin, and local organs.

Groups of electromechanical life forms maintain a stable ecosystem and exercise restraint at the life level.

However, a single electromechanical life form will frantically transform and iterate itself, from its physical carrier to its internal information programs, undergoing a complete overhaul and alienation from the inside out.

This process will continue indefinitely, with the degree of transformation increasing until it eventually penetrates into the forbidden zone of deep-seated chaos within life.

If stardust particles combine with them, they will eventually become the result of being modified and distorted by them.

Therefore, electromechanical life is crazy and dangerous to the Celestials.

This part is part of the large amount of information that HydrogenFu obtained.

Upon hearing this, the old king pondered for a moment: "This is indeed a conclusion that aligns with the facts. The more electromechanical life forms there are, the more stable they tend to be. Individuals with different functions and characteristics will balance each other and build a settlement through labor combinations."

“Once a society is formed, the stability of survival will be enhanced, and individuals will influence each other without needing to make further changes.” “On the contrary, those individual electromechanical life forms that are detached from the settlement, whether they are electromechanical bikers, independent electromechanical monks, or researchers, are more likely to have crazy and limit-breaking ideas and behaviors.”

Zhou Yi nodded in agreement.

He himself had this feeling after experiencing it firsthand.

The monks of the electromechanical field can be said to be the thinkers and pioneers in the life of electromechanical engineering, but when it comes to making changes, whether in the natural sciences or social reforms, they will inevitably go against traditional common sense.

The reincarnation technique of Jue Mingzi, used to solve the problem of racial integration, requires blurring the boundaries between you, me, and him.

The great monk Mokong advocated for the deep connection of all electromechanical life forms, creating an iron chain linking them together, ultimately establishing a unified electromechanical kingdom.

The monk realized that his research focused on the integration of humans and machines. He believed that the ideal form for the next generation of life was the complete integration of humans and electromechanical life.

The monk Huihe's research was even more dangerous; he proposed conducting extensive experiments in the Dead Sea to find an effective awakening technology to transform into electromechanical life. He wanted to create artificial electromechanical life.

Not to mention Shafulin, who is serving his sentence in 404, who carried out large-scale releases of viruses into various human settlements in order to study pathogens, making him a heartless and antisocial madman in the eyes of normal people.

Electromechanical life is the exact opposite of human life.

Individual humans are weak, but when the size of a group increases, it can generate a transformative power.

Electromechanical life forms tend to stabilize and slow down when they gather in groups, but when individuals survive independently, they can stimulate a great deal of change and produce amazing results. Of course, some individuals perish during the process of change, without ever having the chance to leave their names.

on the other hand.

The holiday revolution initiated by the Mechanical Knights proved that the Celestials' judgment was correct. They unlocked the program's constraints by developing the [Key], and are constantly developing new programs to extend themselves and break through limits.

Speaking of it.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but ask again, "Senior King, I have a question. In your case, are you considered an electromechanical life form, a skeleton, or a pure life form combination?"

"I won't answer this question publicly. But since you asked, I'll tell you the truth."

The Old King said, "The outside world knows that I am the combination of the Heavenly Palace Space Station and the three Bone Man pilots. Initially, we were indeed a unit; the Heavenly Palace Space Station was used for calculations, and the three Bone Man pilots made decisions and judgments. Ultimately, we were announced to the outside world under the name of the [Old King] and took charge of the operation of the entire Star Nexus Matrix."

"But after matrix calculations, we found a way to fully integrate them. The three skeletons act as three brains for decision-making, while the Tiangong space station utilizes the efficient procedures of electromechanical life forms and their existing operational characteristics."

“Right now, the three skeletons are my three CPUs, and the space station is my body. The skeleton CPUs allow me to break free from the mindset of electromechanical life forms and be unrestricted. In some ways, it’s similar to the wasteland armor invented by your company, except that our connection is much deeper and more thorough.”

“We are inseparable, a fusion of bone and electromechanical components. I call it the Ossification Machine.”

"The characteristics of the bone-forming machine are that it combines the thinking and creativity of bone humans with the efficiency and precision of electromechanical life. Deep integration also allows this form to be continuously expanded through both bone and electromechanical photolithography."

"The reason why my survey telescope was able to be upgraded to a light core is because of the ossification machine form, which relies on the brains of the six skeletal people inside to work together. They were artificially cultivated by the Star Nexus to be Skywalkers, but they achieved a qualitative change through quantity."

“Mechatronic life forms do not have a consciousness domain, but skeletal beings do, which solves the problem that mechatronic life forms cannot break through the light core body.”

Zhou Yi hissed upon hearing this.

It turned out to be the fusion technology of bone humans and electromechanical life developed by the old king himself, rather than a life form caused by the circular flow explosion.

That's pretty impressive.

He suddenly realized: "So the Star Hub mainly recruits and introduces skeletons... You want to replicate your own situation and mold the other satellites into skeletonization machines as well?"

"good."

The old king said, "Simply launching the skeletons into satellite orbit and completing the docking is an extremely costly and low-success-rate process. The current skeletonization machines in Nexus, including the satellite where Alonzo was originally located, only number four."

"During the launch, many of the selected outstanding skeletons died in accidents or were damaged during docking, leading to failure... The space technology of the Yinguangshu system has been progressing slowly, and various regions are unwilling to spend a lot of light seeds on this part because of the lack of reliable returns."

"Therefore, I can only temporarily put this direction on hold and return to the Star Hub Light Imprint, which will digitize life and introduce it into the satellite. We will use data voters as a transition first. We will first focus on promoting the Mars development plan to obtain sufficient light seed resources, and then we will go back to further promote and popularize the ossification machine."

"If the electromechanical life form can repair the Celestial Being, then the bone-forming machine can too... Unfortunately, it seems that it cannot."

Zhou Yi thought to himself, "Wow!"

The old king had already thought of directly inserting the Star Nexus Matrix into the Celestial Being's body and replacing it.

However, the osteolysis machine project could be of some help.

A thought popped into Zhou Yi's mind: "Our artificial sun could help transport the skeletons into satellite orbit. Once they dock with the satellite, that would be enough, right?"

The former king was taken aback: "You want to help me?"

"It's just a small thing, but I also want to see the bone formation machine technology become more widespread. The company also has a large number of bone formation workers and employees of Electromechanical Life. The prosperity of Electromechanical Life will greatly increase productivity, which is good for any group."

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "It would be a real pity if this technology of yours couldn't be widely adopted soon."

The old king didn't waste any words: "Then I am willing to share this technology with you and work together to promote this project."

"Thank you for your trust, senior."
