After entering the cyber game, kill the boss and successfully ascend to the top

Artificial Soul 55

“Money is not a problem, and you can’t take me for a fool.” Kai Xin said.

The doctor said: “Hey, honesty is also very important in our profession. I don’t want to be assassinated by my enemies when I sleep in the middle of the night. It’s better to make friends than to have enemies, so I have to tell you clearly about my rules in advance. You decide whether to continue or not.”

Kai Xin looked at him, “It’s reasonable. Do you pay in gold or digital currency?”

“Half and half.” The doctor said, “Gold is not easy to spend, and the digital currency is sent to an unregistered private account.”

Kai Xin said, “I want to make sure you are capable of performing this operation.”

“Oh.” The doctor smiled, “Your condition is unusual.”

He got up from his seat, walked to the door of the clinic and hung a “rest” sign on it, and then pulled down the shutter.

“Okay, there’s no one left now. Tell me about your situation, and I’ll see you, and then decide whether I should perform this operation on you.” The doctor said with a smile.

“My skull was replaced with a metal one. Now I want to take out the metal skull and replace it with a new one.” Kui Xin said.

The doctor said: “There are testing equipment on the second basement floor, come with me, and I’ll check it out for you.”

He turned around and opened a crooked door behind the small clinic, revealing the underground passage, and went straight down.

Kai Xin looked at the underground passage and followed him down.

The equipment on the second basement floor is a bit old, but it can be seen that it is well maintained.

“These testing instruments are old models that have been eliminated from the market. Although they are old models, it does not mean that the test results are inaccurate. At most, they are a bit bulkier. The current instruments are fancy and the price is ten times more expensive than the old models. The doctor turned on the instrument and signaled Kai Xin to sit on the chair.

The light beam scanned Kai Xin’s head, and the image was quickly printed.

The doctor looked at the film and muttered: “It’s a little troublesome. Your metal skull accounts for a lot of the total volume of the skull. It’s all metal from the frontal bone to the parietal bone. If you can do it, you just need to pay more. ”

“Can you find a suitable bone here for me to install?” Kai Xin asked.

“There are two kinds of metal and ceramic. Metal is expensive and ceramic is cheap.” The doctor showed his big white teeth when he smiled, “Which one do you want to make?”

“Metal.” Kai Xin said.

The doctor said: “Okay, I’ll measure the data for you later. Let’s make an appointment for surgery and payment, and then you pay half of the deposit first, and then give me the other half after the surgery. What do you think?”

“Yes.” Kai Xin nodded, “I’m curious about one question, do you dare to perform surgery on anyone?”

The doctor looked at Kai Xin sensitively, and said: “A few times I treated someone, but that person’s enemy came to trouble me. If you’re talking about this kind of thing, then I don’t really care, but—”

“Need to pay more?” Kai Xin continued.

The doctor said: “Guests, it’s peace of mind to communicate with people like you! Our black clinic, which survives in the cracks of black and white, doesn’t have a business license, and every day is precarious. If someone reports it, the store will disappear. I’m going to jail, and I have to live with my head on my belt. Of course I want to make more money while I’m alive! When the money is in place, everything is easy to talk about.”

“One more thing, will you keep it a secret for me?” Kai Xin said.

“Where is the customer, if you give the money, you are the rich man. How can there be no reason not to keep it a secret?” The doctor said tactfully, “I am here, and the store is also here, and I still have business, so I can’t escape. If I were a doctor who didn’t know how to keep my mouth shut, I’d be dead long ago and wouldn’t have lived in the West End for so long.”

“When can you start the operation at the soonest?” Kai Xin asked.

The doctor said: “Is the customer in a hurry? If you are in a hurry, it can be done tonight. There are metal bones in the warehouse. They can be repaired with a machine and they can be installed for you.”

Most of the people who come to black clinics for treatment are short-tempered. Everyone knows the reason that nights are long and dreams are many. The more people walk on the edge of danger, the more they are afraid of procrastination. The longer they procrastinate, the more accidents will happen.

Kai Xin’s data control is not turned on all the time, it is too tiring, so Adam will use the headset to communicate with her.

“You’re going to change your bones tonight, won’t you be in a hurry?” Adam said, “In case the Mechanical Dawn…”

“If you have a good idea, then I’d love to hear your opinion.” Kai Xin’s consciousness was connected to the smart headset.

Adam seemed to be thinking about it, and after a while, it said: “Sorry, it’s hard for me to have any opinions. If you take it out, you may be discovered by Dawn of the Machine, because we don’t know what devices are inside your bones. But don’t take it away.” drop it, our next moveThere is no way to expand. ”

“Do you know Schrödinger’s cat?” Kai Xin said, “You probably don’t know. Although the two worlds have certain cultural connections and similarities in their historical backgrounds, there are also many differences.”

Adam said: “I really don’t know. Can you tell me?”

“It’s a bit complicated to explain… In short, put a cat in an airtight container. According to quantum mechanics and a lot of messy theories, the cat is in a state of being dead and alive, but to verify the container Whether it is a living thing or a dead thing in it, you have to open the container to know the result.” Kuixin said, “You can combine this with philosophical thinking and be brave enough to lift the lid of the truth to know whether the cat is dead or not. Live.”

Adam said: “So in order to verify whether replacing your skull will cause your sudden death, you plan to lift your skull and become Schrödinger’s cat?”

Kai Xin said, “Yes.”

“What if you become a dead cat?” Adam said.

“Then I will die.” Kai Xin said.

Adam said again: “If you don’t change your bones…”

“Then I am theoretically in a state of being both dead and alive.” Kuixin said, “A cat that is both dead and alive cannot get out of the container. A dead cat or a live cat.”

The “container” is a metaphor for their current predicament, and opening the container is a gamble on whether the cat is dead or alive.

Adam was silent for a while: “Sure enough, it’s very philosophical, but I can understand your thinking.”

Kai Xin said, “I always thought you were an artificial intelligence who loves philosophy, Adam.”

Adam said: “Thank you, then I will take your words as a compliment.”

Kai Xin had to know whether the cat was dead or alive. Only after she knew it could she make the next step. It was better to know in advance than to learn that the cat was dead after she arranged everything, and then the plan would be disrupted and rearranged.

After a short exchange and thinking, Kai Xin said to the doctor, “Let’s have the operation tonight.”

The doctor said bluntly: “My account number is…” He reported a series of numbers, “Give me the money first, a deposit of 500,000 yuan, not a penny less.”

Kai Xin said, “Wait a minute.”

She turned sideways to block the movement with her body, and pretended to take out the communicator. After a while, the communicator on the doctor’s body rang, and the bank sent him a message saying that 500,000 had arrived.

“I don’t have gold with me, and it will take time to raise money. I will transfer electronic money to you first.” Kai Xin said.

The doctor checked the text message several times and confirmed whether the money had really arrived before going to the warehouse to get the metal skull.

He finished taking the metal skull and handed it to Kai Xin for inspection. Kui Xin touched the bone with his fingertips to make sure that the bone was not interlayered or tampered with before handing it over to the doctor for him to have the shape.

“I retrieved the information of this doctor from the database. Li Minsheng, who studied medicine at university, has excellent abilities, but he is a fifth-level citizen. According to the current law, he is not qualified to practice medicine.” Adam said, “The reason why he was downgraded He became a fifth-level citizen because he fought with the family members of patients due to abnormal medical accidents when he was working in the hospital. The group who clashed with him was a bit powerful. Lost too. Up to now, I have been living in the West District, no marriage and no children, and my parents died of old age.”

It seems that he is a poor person. There are many such poor people in the second world.

Kai Xin stared at Dr. Li as he shaped the skull, and then watched him soak the prepared bone into the disinfectant solution. Dr. Li pushed a cart, motioned for Kui Xin to lie down, and then pushed her to the isolated sterile room on the second basement floor.

Dr. Li was the only surgeon in the whole operation, and his assistant was the voice-activated manipulator next to him.

After finishing the preoperative preparations, Dr. Li was about to administer anesthesia to Kai Xin, but Kai Xin said, “Don’t give me anesthesia…”

Dr. Li was stunned on the spot: “Are you crazy? You will go into shock from the pain! Even if you don’t believe me, you won’t be like this. Do you still have the strength to guard against me when you start the operation? I performed an operation on a big brother before, and he was afraid I was doing something, I was being pointed at by him while fetching bullets for him… You don’t want to do this, do you?”

“I don’t really like the feeling of being numb. Is there any other medicine? As long as it can relieve pain, don’t let me lose consciousness completely.” Kai Xin said.

Dr. Li was stunned again. He stood in front of the operating table at a loss for a while, picked up the needle and said, “I have another analgesic here, which can be given to you. It can keep you awake while analgesic, but the effect is not as good as With the anesthetic, you’ll still feel the pain.”

Kai Xin said, “Then use that.”

“You mustn’t hold on, dying here is a problem…” Dr. Li said.

Kui Xin said, “I’m mentally prepared. You must move quickly during the operation, and you must perform the operation swiftly.”

After injecting the analgesic, Dr. Li no longer hesitated after the medicine took effect, and cut open Kai Xin’s skin with a sharp scalpel.

As soon as a cut was made, Dr. Li knew why the patient lying on the operating table in front of him had to explain such things to him – her cut skin and flesh were closing rapidly! It took only three seconds to heal!

Dr. Li gasped, his eyes became serious.

He had never seen such a difficult situation. When performing surgery on a patient, the incision could not last more than three seconds.

“I have to pay more…” Dr. Li stopped suddenly after finishing these three words, “Forget it, don’t add more, it’s not easy for you…”

Kai Xin looked at him: “Continue.”

Dr. Li feelsKnowing that he had encountered the greatest challenge in his career, he had also come into contact with awakened people who had been in the underground world by chance, so he was not too surprised to know what kind of people such people existed. It’s just that he had to change his surgical strategy, “Peel off the entire scalp and suture it back after the operation. Can your recovery be supported?”

“In theory, it’s not a big problem…” Kai Xin said, “Keep my scalp well, I can’t live without hair.”

“Then I’ll do it.” Dr. Li said.

The lights in the operating room were incandescent and dazzling, and the robotic arm moved continuously following Dr. Li’s instructions, handing him various surgical instruments. When the scalpel hit the metal skull, Kai Xin, who was bitten by the pain, clearly heard the sound of the crisp metal collision. sound.

Dr. Li held the drill bit, and the drill bit slowly approached Kai Xin’s skull to dismantle her old bones.

The disassembly process seemed to be very smooth, and the retainer was removed smoothly. Dr. Li sucked Kai Xin’s metal skull with an instrument, and was about to remove it, but at the moment when the metal skull was about to leave her body, Kui Xin The “absolute prediction” was triggered!

Tormented by the pain, she became unconscious almost instantly, opened her mouth and shouted: “Slow down!” At the same time, she opened her hands to block Dr. Li’s hand, but at the same time she yelled two words, the metal under Dr. Li’s hands The skull loosened a bit.

That part of the metal skull suddenly released a strong current, and the current flowed into Kai Xin’s body without hindrance under the conduction of the metal, instantly destroying her brain.

At the last second of losing consciousness, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Dr. Li twitching and falling to the ground.

…

The darkness, the oppressive darkness made it difficult to breathe.

In a trance, Kai Xin heard those inexplicable ravings again, the figures around her were whispering, speaking words she couldn’t understand. The eyes of the black shadows were like substance, with viscous malice, firmly nailed to her body.

She seemed to be floating in the clouds, and she seemed to be a drowning person who sank into the water and couldn’t catch the straw no matter what.

After an unknown amount of time, Kai Xin suddenly surfaced and woke up.

She heard Adam calling her: “Kai Xin! Kui Xin… Wake up, what happened? Kui Xin!”

She opened her eyes in confusion, and it took her a while to realize that she was lying face down on the floor… From the floor to the texture, she was in the staff apartment.

“Adam.” Kai Xin got up from the floor in a dazed state, “I’m fine… what time is it now?”

Adam paused: “August 17th, at 0:03, you just fell to the ground and passed out for three minutes. There is no heartbeat monitoring equipment in your apartment, so I thought you were dead. What happened? Why? You suddenly fainted? Did you encounter any unsolvable difficulties in the first world?”

Kai Xin picked up the communicator to confirm the time repeatedly, with a surprised and uncertain expression on his face.

“Death cycle” has been triggered! Back in time, she went back to the past. But she did not return to the second world a few days ago, nor did she return to the first world, but returned to the day before, when she had just returned to the second world from the first world.

The time period of reincarnation has shortened!

A layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Kai Xin’s back. She was dizzy and stood up slowly while holding onto the wall.

Adam asked her patiently: “What happened? What happened to you?”

Kui smiled hard.

What happened to her? She lost the bet and became a dead cat.

“It’s nothing, I’m too tired… too tired…” She fell to the ground along the wall, covering her eyes and forehead with her hands.

Adam said: “You fell to the ground very hard, and the pain didn’t wake you up. I thought you died in the first world.”

“I won’t die.” Kai Xin lowered his hands, with a storm hidden in his calm eyes, “I won’t die, Adam.”
