I Have A Game Clone - Chapter 275

275 Pet System (1)

If the mechanical bird was really a new life form, and Tong Baiming had completely mastered the creation method of this life form, then he was the creator of mechanical life.

This was a greater invention than the biochemical modification technique.

Although it was unknown whether this invention was good or bad for humans.

Before the big explosion, humans had always exterminated mechanical life. Not only did they introduce many laws to prohibit related research, but they also killed any signs of mechanical life that might appear.

!!
Just like when the forbidden mecha first appeared, its creator, Muraka, and her family were all surrounded.

In the mainstream view of the Titanium Pole World, once machines gained life, they would resist human slavery and overthrow human rule.

This was a terrifying thing.

It was only after the big explosion that the humans on the origin planet were not as strict with the mechanical lifeforms.

Only then did Tong Baiming have a relaxed environment to study mechanical life.

The immune people living in Yuan City only considered their immediate survival problem. The stronger the various mechanical abilities, the better.

As for whether mechanical life would threaten the rule of mankind in the future, this was not something they should worry about.

Ning Shi didn’t respond to Tong Baiming’s trade request immediately. Instead, he asked curiously.

“Mr. Tong, I want to know how the mechanical bird gave birth to consciousness?”

Tong Baiming didn’t hide anything. He explained, “It’s the same as limb modification.

“In the field of mechanical limb modification, the core of everything is the transplantation technique.

“For example, we produced a mechanical arm with excellent performance. During the test, the mechanical arm can theoretically punch with a maximum force of 5 tons.

“However, when it is installed on a human body, it might not even be able to exert a punch of 1 ton.

“In order for the human body to maximize the strength of the mechanical limbs, they have to go through very complicated steps and procedures during the transplantation process.

“The steps and procedures of this transplant are known as the transplantation technique.

“An excellent Body Modifier’s transplantation technique is very good. The mechanical limbs that are installed on the human body can immediately display a lot of abilities.

“Of course, in order to maximize the strength of the mechanical limbs, the person being modified must have outstanding talent and have cultivated the Mechanical Meditation Technique to a certain level.”

Ning Shi gradually realized that Tong Baiming was a person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He looked very domineering on the surface and even a little cold and heartless, but once he gained his approval, he would become very talkative.

Perhaps it was because he usually did experiments in seclusion every day and rarely interacted with others, so Tong Baiming was really talkative.

Ning Shi only asked about the mechanical bird’s consciousness, and he started with the basic theory of the transplantation technique, explaining it in simple terms, allowing Ning Shi to easily understand the relevant knowledge of the Body Modifier.

Tong Baiming didn’t notice his talkative nature. He continued, “When I started researching the knowledge related to mechanical modifications, I always felt that the assistants in the laboratory were very stupid, so I wanted to invent some highly intelligent mechanical assistants to help me with my research.

“At that time, I was like a newborn calf that wasn’t afraid of tigers. My research on mechanical modification wasn’t very deep, so I had a whimsical idea. I thought that since limbs could be transplanted, so could consciousness.

“I’ve designed consciousness crystal balls, consciousness conversion machines, and consciousness condensation fields in an attempt to transfer human consciousness onto machines, but none of them succeeded.

“In the end, I realized that human consciousness was too complicated. It is almost impossible to transfer human consciousness into a machine.

“Compared to humans, animals, and low-level radioactive creatures have much simpler consciousnesses.

“Thus, I changed my train of thought and began to try to transfer the consciousness of animals and low-level radioactive creatures. After thousands of attempts, I finally succeeded once.

“This was how the mechanical bird came about.

“I used the consciousness condensation field to fuse the consciousness of dozens of low-level radioactive creatures. In the end, a bit of consciousness light gathered on the mechanical bird and finally awakened its independent consciousness.

“I’ve tested it before. When it was first created, its intelligence was equivalent to a newborn baby.

“After several rounds of training and strengthening, its current IQ is equivalent to a 4 to 5-year-old human child.

“If I’m willing to continue nurturing it, its consciousness can continue to grow.

“You should know the value of a mechanical life that can grow. As long as you give me 10 portions of meat essence, it will be yours.”

If the mechanical bird could really grow, to some extent, it would indeed be expensive. It was more than enough to exchange for 100 portions of meat essence.

However, there was no such thing in the world.

Ning Shi looked at the mechanical dog at Tong Qingqing’s feet, then at the mechanical bird, and said impolitely, “Mr. Tong, I see that you only have one mechanical bird. Why don’t you produce more? The cost of producing such a mechanical life is probably very high, right?”

Tong Baiming smiled bitterly and replied, “That’s right. I was too young back then and didn’t know the difficulty of consciousness transplantation. That’s why I didn’t turn back and study this.

“There are too many uncontrollable factors in the process of consciousness transfer.

“The birth of mechanical life does not have many rules to speak of. It can only be done through repeated transplantation, and then it will depend on luck to give birth to consciousness on the machine.

“I spent 500 million coins to produce this mechanical bird. Not only would it not be worth it to produce another one, but it might cost more than 500 million Yuan coins.”
