Chapter 566 You're Really Not Human [Request for Recommendations and Follow-Up]

Looking at the tall, leggy woman in a black miniskirt, her face full of confusion and her mouth chattering away, Chen Hong simply smiled kindly.

"2B, don't just use your eyes and logic to understand the world, use your heart."

"With heart?" Miss 2B tilted her short white hair and looked puzzled, her expression revealing a sense of incomprehension and illogical confusion.

What is the heart?

"Heart?"

"2B has no heart."

"Incomprehensible."

"Human abstract words are really strange."

Chen Hong nodded, "It's okay, getting to know each other starts with getting to know each other."

Abstraction begins with the concrete.

"Come here, touch my ribs."

2B took a step forward and then a step back, showing both eagerness and caution.

Chen Hong smiled and shook 2B's outstretched hand.

2B was startled and instinctively tried to pull her hand back, like a kitten whose fur had been jolted by an electric shock.

But he was far weaker than Chen Hong and couldn't pull himself back.

Chen Hong took her hand and touched his ribs.

2B was momentarily stunned. At that moment, countless pieces of information flashed through its intelligent core.

"Feel it?"

"That's bone."

That's skin.

That's the temperature of flesh and blood.

"Come on, touch my heart again."

"Can you feel your heartbeat?"

"This is a human heartbeat, which is different from the heart of a cyborg."

2B found it somewhat unbelievable; she had never seen a living human being since she could remember, and the only descriptions of humans existed in the database.

This was the first time she had ever experienced a human body.

The question is, is 9s really human?

At this moment, 2B's auxiliary unit 042 and 9S's auxiliary unit 153 flew over together, and a scanning light screen scanned Chen Hong's entire body from head to toe.

Two mechanical sounds rang out simultaneously.

"Human flesh and blood organs were detected, human cells were detected, and the database was compared."

Comparison results:
Mismatch!

"Genetic mismatch! This individual's genetic complexity far exceeds that of humans."

Extremely complex life structures were detected.

An unknown substance was detected.

Unknown energy detected.

"Human-like animal cell structures, flesh, organs, and brains were detected."

"A large number of heavy metal elements were detected."

"A large number of unknown parameters that violate the laws of physics have been detected."

"Preliminary assessment: This individual is neither human nor a mechanical life form."

It is an unknown third kind of contact with an unknown life form.

"Judgment: This individual is no longer 9S, but an unknown entity. It is recommended that 2B attempt to control and recover this individual."

Upon hearing this, 2B jumped back a distance and looked at Chen Hong warily.

At this moment, the 9s auxiliary machine 153 suddenly emitted a piercing alarm sound.

"Warning! Warning!"

"An unknown life form, 9s, is invading the database of the space base [Bunker]."

Please stop your behavior immediately! Please stop your behavior immediately!

"Are you infiltrating the base?"

2B's eyes narrowed, and without the slightest hesitation, she launched an attack on Chen Hong.

The tactical knife struck Chen Hong, sending sparks flying.

It wasn't Chen Hong's spark, but the spark from the separation of matter in this tactical knife.

2B's eyes were serious, and his movements were as fast as lightning and as swift as a rabbit. In just one second, he unleashed dozens of sword flashes, slicing into Chen Hong's body. His physical abilities far surpassed those of ordinary humans.

Unfortunately, the tactical knife, which used to cut through gold and jade and slice through mechanical lifeforms like vegetables, couldn't even scratch Chen Hong. "Such strong defense!"

"You really aren't human."

2B's brow furrowed completely.

Just then, Chen Hong finished browsing the bunker's database, learned some of the truths about this world, and also learned many technologies and knowledge of human civilization in this world.

He immediately turned to look at 2B, revealing a meaningful smile.

"2B, I've told you before, don't just look at the world with your eyes, use your heart."

"Perhaps one day, when you discover that everything you've held onto was just a lie, a joke, and your beliefs collapse overnight, what will you do then?"

2B frowned, then a determined look appeared on his face. He clenched his fist and punched it in front of his chest, his clear, cold voice ringing out:

"The glory of mankind will live on forever!"

Chen Hong nodded approvingly: "Good willpower."

"2B, you are lucky because you met me."

"And I am human."

“You don’t fit the characteristics of a human,” 2B retorted. “You are an unknown life form.”

"Then... let your heart tell whether I am human or not."

Time will tell, 2B.

Just then, 2B's auxiliary machine 042 beeped and projected an image.

"Commander of the Yoroi unit has sent a communication request. Connecting..."

With the sound of machinery, a beautiful figure appeared on the screen, dressed in white with gold thread, with long golden hair and a noble and dignified face.

"2B, the base database has been suddenly hacked, 9S has lost network access and is out of control. Are you aware of this?"

2B glanced at Chen Hong in front of him and nodded: "I know, 9S is right next to me. But..."

He's no longer 9S.

The commander's pupils contracted. "An unexpected situation has occurred? Report the details immediately."

"Yes."

"Due to unknown reasons, 9S underwent a huge change and became an unknown life form that is suspected to have flesh and blood. It is extremely powerful and easily killed four giant mechanical life forms, Engels."

Based on the scan comparison, I don't believe 9S is human, but it's not a purely mechanical life form either; the possibility of intervention by a third-party extraterrestrial force cannot be ruled out.

The commander's expression changed, becoming more serious than ever before.

"A third-party force?"

“I demand to speak with 9S.”

2B looked at Chen Hong.

Chen Hong stepped forward with a smile and looked at the commander.

"Hey, Commander, it's me, 9S. Don't you recognize me anymore?"

The commander simply stared at Chen Hong expressionlessly.

"9S, can you tell me where it comes from?"

"Of course, Commander."

"I am human."

"This joke is not funny at all, 9S."

"The Human Parliament is on the far side of the moon."

You, however, do not meet the definition of human characteristics; even the number of DNA chromosomes does not match.

You possess a vast array of life structures unknown to humankind, and a power far exceeding human imagination.

Advanced life forms that have evolved to your level must originate from advanced civilizations in the universe.

You are even more advanced, powerful, and unknown than the aliens and mechanical lifeforms that invaded Earth, as described in the data.

Why would a highly advanced life form like you come to Earth? Is it because you've taken a liking to this planet with life?
And why did you choose 9S as the recipient of your arrival?

I didn't see anything special about the 9S.

"Why is it that people never believe the truth?" Chen Hong asked helplessly. "Do you androids even have some of the common human flaws?"

The commander remained expressionless and devoid of emotion, rationally analyzing the situation:

"We only believe in data."

The data says you're not human.

Then you're not human.
