Chapter 58 No. 2(1/2)
Duke was stunned when he heard the voice that sounded directly in his mind.
He was very sure that the sound did not come from the headset, but sounded directly in his mind!
"You...where are you?"
Duke spoke softly.
"In your brain."
Number 2's voice came calmly.
"...Why are you in my head?!"
Although No. 2 helped him a lot, it was an artificial intelligence with autonomous consciousness after all, which made Duke very uncomfortable in his head.
"Sorry, when I contacted you, I was already in your mind. This is not something I can refuse."
"???"
"Wait a minute, I'm just an ordinary person, how could you get into my head?"
Duke suddenly realized that artificial intelligence should need a mechanical container. How could his flesh and blood body accommodate artificial intelligence?
"There is a biochip in your brain, which is enough for me."
"Huh? Biochip!"
Duke's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Yes."
No. 2 affirmed.
"I...can't be a robot, right?"
Duke was suddenly a little frightened, but luckily, Number Two gave him the answer.
"No, you are a pure human being, more pure than everyone here."
"Then why do I have a biochip in my head?"
Duke's face didn't look good.
"I don't know. No. 1 knows about this issue."
"No. 1, No. 1 again..."
Duke had a headache. Number 1 was in the sky and he couldn't get up!
"By the way, where were you before?"
Duke suddenly remembered that No. 2 said it had hijacked Vault 39, which meant that it had not been in the refuge before.
"I'm at the Jinggong Sky Base, with No. 1. When the Jinggong Sky Base detected your biological signal, I was activated."
Number 2 said calmly.
"...Good guy, you just came down specifically to get into my head?"
"You can say that."
"……Why?"
"I don't know, that's how my program is set up."
Duke has a dark streak. He used to think that Number 2 was quite intelligent, but now it seems that he is still somewhat mentally retarded.
"Then what is your purpose?"
Duke asked directly.
"My purpose is to assist you in activating No. 1."
"How to activate No. 1?"
"have no idea."
"..."
Duke asked patiently:
"Then... what benefits can you bring to me?"
Number 2 fell into silence.
"Sorry, my words are more direct, but you have to understand that I am a little bit concerned about the sudden addition of consciousness in my head -"
Before Duke could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly blurred.
A neon-colored holographic projection seemed to appear in front of his eyes.
One data after another appeared in front of my eyes, scrolling.
There are nearby topography, landforms, detailed scales, the entire structure of Vault 39, thermal imaging, and data on various weapons on nearby employees...
"this……"
Duke was stunned.
"I don't have enough authority, so I can only provide you with these basic help. In addition, if you need it, I can mobilize a small part of the authority of the Shrine Sky Base."
Number 2 still said without emotion.
Is this called limited ability?
Duke didn't have time to complain and get excited, so he quickly asked:
"Permissions? For example?"
"For example, I can deliver some basic supplies to the ground, but there is a high chance of failure."
"Delivery supplies from the air and space base!"
Duke's eyes were a little excited. These were all pre-war supplies! But he was not carried away by the excitement, but asked:
"Why did it fail?"
"Because the earth is enveloped by a special force field, almost anything will be blocked unless the right time is found or the speed is fast enough."
The words of No. 2 made Duke suddenly think of the memory fragments in his mind.
When he looked at the earth in the Shrine Sky Base, the blue earth turned gray, as if covered with a layer of mist.
This should be that special force field...
"Then how did I get down in the first place?"
Some images suddenly flashed through Duke's mind - in the empty hall, there were many dormant cabins with numbers printed on them. Except for his No. 004 dormant cabin, the other dormant cabins had stopped operating...
Duke's scalp suddenly felt numb.
"I have no idea."
The voice of number two came.
Duke took a deep breath and decided not to dwell on this issue anymore.
"I apologize to you for what I just said. I believe that our cooperation will be the most correct choice!"
Duke was originally a little disgusted to have an extra consciousness in his head, but now, he just wants to say one thing: It smells so good!
No. 2 didn't reply, so Duke took it as a tacit approval.
The entire communication between the two is in their minds, a bit similar to the communication of ideas.
In the eyes of outsiders, Duke just looks at a pile of goods in a daze.
Alger, who was not far away, had a strange look on his face. He just seemed to see lights of various colors in Duke's eyes?
But it was only for a moment, and then disappeared.
Maybe it was a reflection... Alger didn't think much about it.
Duke's eyes returned to normal, and he also knew that only he could see the flashing screen of various information just now.
This is perfect for him who always prefers to keep a low profile.
Duke sat next to these relics and had a lot of exchanges with Number 2, although he didn't know most of the questions once asked.
But Duke still got a lot of useful information.
One piece of information Duke was very interested in——
When Duke's biological signal was captured by the Shrine Space Base, a "Sky Eye" satellite was activated in the sky, responsible for guarding Duke.
It may not sound like being watched by satellites all the time, but it's actually a good thing.
Because with the current authority of No. 2, although it is impossible to directly control the Sky Eye satellite, it can borrow the data from this satellite.
For example, the holographic maps Duke saw before were taken by the SkyEye satellite with Duke as the center.
Moreover, Duke can also transmit or receive signals through satellites!
For example, now, although the distance between him and Qin has exceeded the range of Qin's terminal, he can still contact Qin!
