Demon Sage

v3 Chapter 51: Great technology, not great people

"Walk...turn right...sit."

Victor stood by and gave orders, and the neatly dressed male corpse stepped out of the cupboard, turned right to the opposite of Donald, stopped automatically when his feet touched the chair, and sat down on the chair.

The movement can't be said to be very smooth, but it's not rigid either.

Donald's eyes have been on the man's corpse. He has seen many undead creatures, and he once killed some in the small town of Red Cliff with his own hands.

The actions of those undead are obviously faster and more aggressive than the corpse in front of them, but it is a disorderly killing act driven purely by the desire to destroy life, and Victor made it. The so-called "corpse" that came out was more of a sense of obedience to orders.

What surprised Donald the most was that he couldn't feel the negative energy in these corpses, and he didn't even have other energy responses.

The difference between the two is probably the gap between the beast and the mechanical puppet.

"The relationship between the soul and the human body, in my opinion, is the relationship between commands and actions, in simple terms... The soul issues commands, and the body executes them. In this case, it is just like in our daily life. The water can be ignited with firewood, or it can be ignited with a gas stove, the key is to generate heat, as long as the water can be boiled, there are various methods."

Arranged the inserts in the metal drawer on the table, and then said,

"I can find other ways to mobilize the body of the dead, and naturally I can make them a tool. You can think of it as a mechanical doll that needs to be wound up before it can move. .. This is the name of virtual soul energy, because I am not really using soul energy, and using this name will make people misunderstood, just like this young lady did."

Victor is still talking about his research, although the topic has deviated from his previous talk about helping Donald kill Pop Salazar, but the latter doesn't mind hearing about this special meaning now. Technology.

"With funding from Serveit Talos, I have still made a major breakthrough in technology in the past two years. Taking this corpse, which I named Friday as an example, by cutting the medulla in its brain, the The carbon-zinc battery fills the energy infuser, it becomes a usable corpse, and the 'clockwork' that controls it is these plug-ins."

Speaking of which, Victor made an inviting gesture to Donald and the two, motioning them to go over. Donald didn't refuse and stood up beside the corpse.

The back of the corpse's head did show signs of being craniotomized. About where the back of the head was connected to the neck, there was an existence similar to the cassette jack that Donald had seen in his previous life.

"Although I can't completely restore the corpse's consciousness of action, I can already use these plug-ins to let the corpse perform certain tasks. You can think of them as a transceiver for commands. Just plug in these plug-ins, It will perform some kind of work, like the packaging work that is currently on some of the Renus factory lines, they can already do the simpler part of it, and I believe that with deeper technical research and development, this state will be improved. ."

For scientists like them, the pursuit of technological improvement has become an instinct engraved in their bones, just like eating and drinking water. When they talk about these things, they have a lot of meaning.

Only at this time did Donald realize that this Victor Kenstein was a talker.

Stephanie stretched out her fingers and poked Donald's waist, and glanced out the window, she understood that Anthony and the others were still waiting outside, and they didn't come up for academic discussions.

"Mr. Victor, you have been telling me the pros and cons of this technology from just now to now. I do not deny that your idea has great potential. I also admire your ability to accomplish this seemingly impossible. Technology research and development, this is a great thing for today's technological revolution, but for me..."

Noticing Stephanie's reminder, Donald intentionally wanted to speed things up again.

"Wait, you say my technology has great potential and is a great thing?"

Victor's emotions suddenly became a little excited, making the opposite Donald a little confused.

"Of course, isn't this obvious? If your technology is successfully developed, I think the productivity of those factories can be increased several times, and some of the more dangerous and heavy work of the people can be replaced by manpower. Such Technology can't be called great, what other technologies are worthy of being described as great?"

In fact, Donald has regarded Victor's technology as the exact same existence as the robotic technology of his previous life or the mechanical puppet technology he had seen in Demingham before, a corpse that tirelessly repeats a certain job, and those on the assembly line. The machines and equipment are so similar.

It's just that the latter's manufacturing process and raw materials are easier and cheaper to obtain. Unlike those mechanical puppets in Demingham, which cost hundreds of gold pounds at every turn, this is a technology that is entirely possible to popularize.

"Don't you think I'm desecrating the corpse and destroying the existing order of life by doing this?"

Victor is not a person who is easily influenced by the outside world, but even so, he is involuntarily pessimistic about the development and promotion of his own technology after experiencing a wave of opposition from almost the whole society.

"Don't those assembly lines in the factory also destroy the business model of the original handicraft workshop? Mr. Victor, as you said, this is an epoch-making technology. If so, it will inevitably be Challenging the old order, on the other hand... If it can't go beyond the status quo and achieve leapfrog development, why does this technology distinguish two eras?"

This is Donald's heart. Although there is still some confusion about the corpse technology, he does not have any prejudice against this technology.

"I didn't expect to find an enlightened and visionary person like you today... Your Excellency, maybe you don't know that I have only heard similar words in two people's mouths since the development of this technology. , one is you, the other is..."

"Servit Talos, right?"

It doesn't take much thinking, since Victor has worked under Serveit Talos for so long, the latter naturally supports his scientific research theories.

"Yes, at the time I thought I had found a bosom friend, someone who was willing to support my research, so even though the outside world's reputation for the Talos family was not good, I still happily joined the Taros family's laboratory."

"It turns out that he isn't?"

In order to prevent Victor from continuing to diverge his thoughts, Donald helped him come to a conclusion.

"He is really interested in corpse technology, but not for the industrial revolution, but for the control of living people!"

"Um?"

Donald subconsciously made a questioning nasal sound.

After talking about the corpse technology for so long, it turns out that this technology can still be used on living people?

"I know what Your Excellency is wondering, even I was completely unaware of this situation at first, and it was only about three months ago that I found out that Serveit Talos had actually found someone else to steal my research data and take the corpse. Technology is used on the living, trying to rely on this method to completely control some people and turn them into puppets and tools of the Talos family, and naturally I can't support this kind of behavior... So it became It's like this now."

Victor pointed to his shoulder, which was still unable to move freely, and continued with some helplessness,

"Fortunately, because there are many differences between the living and the dead, and my technology research and development was not mature at the time, I was unable to make Serveit Talos achieve his purpose."

"So how are you going to help me kill Pop Salazar?"

After hearing so much information, Donald felt compelled to remind Victor to bring the conversation back on track.

"Since everyone can't do anything to Pop Salazar because this is Renas of the Talos family, then my solution is very simple, making this our home court."

During the conversation, there was a crisp beeping sound in the fireplace next to him. It should be that a piece of wood burned to the branch. Donald's attention was distracted for a moment, but when he came back, he heard Victor's words.

After a brief silence, Donald looked at Victor, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Servit Talos carried the experiment behind your back, have you perfected it?"

Donald is accustomed to analyzing some discourse, and Victor has previously said that his technology development was not mature at the time.

At the time here, there is no doubt that when Serveit Talos was carrying him to carry out experiments on living people, according to the tone when he said this, he was immature at the time, but he is mature now?

"Yes, although I strongly reject this kind of behavior, in order to be able to prevent him from using my research results to carry out some evil deeds~lightnovelpub.net~ This is the best way I can think of... After these three months of calculations, although I have not conducted experiments on living people, I am confident that I can use this technology to successfully control Serveit Talos and let him accept our control, then the situation of Renas will naturally become right. We are good."

Speaking of this, Victor paused before continuing,

"Of course, there are also some of my selfishness in this. I want to continue my research and thoroughly promote my experimental results in Renas... Now I am a wanted criminal. If I can't make some changes, I will The death is tragic, after all, there are not many saviors like your Excellency."

"Hahaha~ I understand, as long as you can control Serveit Talos, you can rely on his power to help us kill Pop Salazar, and then continue your own experiments, and you want to cooperate with us now , in fact, it is also because of our strength, and you want us to help you complete this step, right?"

Donald laughed, and Victor also showed some joy on his face. He thought he was successful in persuading him. Who would have thought that Donald would completely restrain his smile in the next moment,

"Nice idea, but I refuse!"
