Minecraft: I'm Really Not a Monster

“We're not here for treatment, we want to talk to you about something.”

Yang Bo walked straight towards the back room. A slightly thin white young man was lying on a medical bed, and next to him sat a man at least fifty years old, who was performing limb modification on him.

The environment inside the compartment can be described as indescribable.

To receive modification in this kind of place and not get infected can only be said to be thanks to the awesomeness of cyberpunk technology.

Especially with the attending physician, Adelman, having a cigarette in his mouth.

“Hey, you two should at least wait your turn, I'm almost done here.”

Adelman glanced at Yang Tao and the other man lazily, without anger or worry.

“No rush, we'll wait for you outside for a while. Baker, close the door first.”

Baker nodded, turned around and closed the clinic door. Yang Bo stood by and watched the ongoing prosthetic modification.

Adelman didn't mind, took out a metal arm from a box on the side and placed it on the instrument, reaching out to press the screen next to it twice.

The mechanical claw moved and began to modify the man's arm.

Soon, the original arm was removed, but there was no bloody scene. The arm looked more like a fake one, and Adelman casually threw it into the box next to him.

“Although this arm isn't the latest model, it's enough for you to use. After all, you get what you pay for.”

He muttered a few words, then threw the cigarette butt in his mouth into the trash can.

Then he busied himself for a few more minutes.

“Okay, you can try your new arm.”

The young white man moved his mechanical arm and said with satisfaction: “You're right, Doctor Adelman.”

“You get what you pay for, I'll find a way to earn more money, and then come back to replace it with a new one!”

Then, he glanced at Yang Tao and Baker, stood up and walked outside.

Doctor Adelman stood up, stretched lazily, and took out another cigarette, putting it in his mouth, saying: “Hey, what do you two want to talk about?”

Yang Bo cut to the chase and said directly: “I want you to work for me. Don't worry, I will offer you conditions that will satisfy you.”

“Oh? Heh heh, conditions that will satisfy me?”

Adelman sized Yang Tao up and down, chuckled and said, “Forget it, you guys leave.”

“I won't work for anyone else.”

Yang Bo sighed helplessly and said: “Alas, I actually still hope you can work for yourself!”

Suddenly, a mechanical sound echoed from the walls of the small clinic, and dozens of dark gun muzzles stretched out from the walls.

“Please leave, you two…”

Yang Bo sighed.

Instantly, Adelman's eyes emitted a white light, and he turned to look at Baker, asking: “Would you say I'm like a major villain?”

Baker said with some confusion: “Villain? Why do you think so? This world only respects strength!”

“Whether it's a company or a religious order, or even the Alliance, in the final analysis, they are all plundering various resources… population and even seemingly worthless land.”

At this time, Adelman waved his hand, and the gun muzzles on the wall also retracted. He looked at Baker with a cigarette in his mouth and said: “Although I don't think much of you, I agree with what you said.”

Then he looked at Yang Bo and said:

“Your choice is the most correct. With such power, there is no need to consider so-called justice or evil. Your very existence represents a new concept.”

“Perhaps if you remove this ability attached to me, I will seriously consider whether I should follow you.”

“Perhaps under your protection, I can really achieve my wish.”

Yang Bo looked at Adelman and asked in confusion: “Wish? What wish do you have?”

“To completely destroy the Eternal Church!”

“Tell me more…”

“A very cliché story. My child was brainwashed by the lunatics of the Eternal Church and became one of them. When I saw him again, only incomplete limbs remained…”

When saying this, Adelman was very calm, as if he was talking about something that didn't concern him.

Sometimes hatred is just that simple and pure.

“I'm also very interested in the Eternal Church. If there are no problems… I will find a way to help you, but I'm more curious now about what will happen if I remove the mental control over you.”

Adelman still said in that lazy voice: “According to my calculations and habits, I would agree to work for you.”

“This kind of power that transcends machinery is my hope for revenge.”

Yang Bo stared at Adelman with interest and canceled his mental control.

The white eyes receded, revealing his original normal eyes. Adelman shook his head and then looked at Yang Bo, asking: “How exactly did you do it?”

“There were no alarms or error messages from my chip. Everything just now was ‘my’ own decision.”

Yang Bo smiled and said: “It's the soul!”

“No matter how you modify your body, you will still have a soul.”

Adelman nodded lightly, took a deep breath of his cigarette, and said: “That's amazing. I never thought humans really had souls.”

“Then, as long as we find a way to transform the soul into a program, wouldn't we be able to live forever in the network world?”

This ultimate modification can be said to completely abandon the physical body, achieve the goal of mechanical ascension, and allow people to live forever in the network or virtual world.

Yang Bo walked up to Adelman, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said: “The soul may be a quantum program in the brain. You can study quantum mechanics in depth.”

“This is also why I wanted to find you.”

“By the way, Adelman, I want to ask you, what is your perception of me after the control is removed?”

Adelman shook his head and said: “A very magical feeling.”

“Even now I can recall that feeling, and I can clearly recognize that I was being controlled. It's contradictory but also very natural.”

“Your power is simply godlike, no… at that time, you were my god.”

When Adelman said this, he still felt like he was crazy, and then he had the chip start self-checking again, but the answer he got was still that there were no problems.

He planned to find a hacker friend to check it for him later.

“Okay, to be honest, I'm very interested in the Eternal Church. Let's go find the next invitee, and along the way, you can tell me about the Eternal Church.”

As someone who hates the Eternal Church, Adelman must know something about the Eternal Church.

The three of them left the clinic.

Adelman had a car, so the three of them drove to the next location.

At the same time, Yang Bo also learned some information about the Eternal Church.

The Eternal Church worships the God of Machines.

They firmly believe that the God of Machines will descend upon the world, thereby leading all believers into the Kingdom of God.

However, some radical and crazy guys easily appear among the followers of the Eternal Church.

This has led to the Eternal Church now being a similar existence to a terrorist organization.
