Chapter 17 Orianna, who loves to listen to stories

"Glorious evolution... I can't understand it, I feel so amazing." Oriana lay on the workbench, listening to Geno's story with interest. She likes listening to stories very much.

The happiest thing about Oriana is to go to the opera with her father to listen to opera. For her, it is also a way of interpreting the story. Then she fell in love with dance because body language can also interpret a story, and it is more beautiful and moving, but she has no dance teacher and can only explore it by herself.

"Victor's research has always been committed to eliminating human errors in the process. He has conducted an investigation. Most of the accidents in Zuan's workshop were man-made mistakes, not mechanical failures."

"So he invented the automation device?"

"Right." With Geno's affirmation, Oriana showed a satisfied smile.

"Zuan once had a large-scale alchemy leak incident, which caused harm to the whole city. Yes, Zuan had so many disasters. Britz was a self-disciplined robot developed by Victor during this period using automatic mechanical technology and a series of cognitive learning cycle instructions. The job is... the cleaning and recycling of highly toxic alchemy waste, which ordinary people can't do, so Britz is actually a cleaner. If you often sit on the whistle, you might have the chance to see it hang on the iron rack outside the whistle."

"Oh yell! It's so interesting, the combination of welder and cleaner... To be honest, I haven't seen these two great gods with my own eyes."

Geno often called Victor Victor by electric welders, three hands, etc., so Oriana was taken a detachment, but it was very easy to pronounce in Valoran.

"If you really meet, you might scare you, that's a scientist who has no feelings for you."

Geno smiled and continued to talk about Victor's experience:

"Although the pollution of alchemy substances was controlled, Victor still chose to stay in Zuan to help those poisoned. With the help of Britz, he tried to use the innovative methods of Zuan Academy of Science and Magic to save those who were dying. The short-lived innovation is the prototype of the popular Hex enhancement surgery, which is now popular, and replaced the broken parts with machinery... His attempt failed in the end, but through this action, he fully studied the techniques of combining human anatomy and technological components, and understood how ordinary bodies should accept the enhancement of technology."

"Wait! You mean... Hex enhancement surgery was pioneered, improved and promoted by Victor?!"

Oriana slapped the table in surprise and interrupted Geno.

"It can be said that he is the most famous one, but he is not the only one who knows this technology. Now, basically a Zuan scientist has some understanding of enhancement technology."

"No wonder my father has always been biased against Victor. It turns out that the two are competitors! They are both making money from disabled people. No wonder my business has been getting worse and worse since I was born. It turns out that it is because of Victor..."

I need to correct it here. Victor actually doesn't make money. He has always helped patients with surgery at a low price. He will take action for those poor people who are desperate. Some of his funds come from the subsequent repayment of these people who are helped by him.

Compared with the Hex reinforcement, the former is exquisite and has a good experience, can be disassembled freely but is expensive, and it is more like a custom made for the rich, while the latter is highly targeted and specially designed to adapt to various high-risk jobs, but much cheaper. In this way, most people will choose the latter with a higher cost performance, provided that you don’t mind the ugly feeling of combining machinery and flesh and blood and severe pain during surgery.

Speaking of this, some people may have some questions: Shouldn’t Hex Technology be very expensive? Why did it become cheaper?

What Victor uses for patients is actually alchemy technology. This technology is very similar to Hex Technology, and the only difference is that it has different power.

The power of Hex Technology comes from Hex Crystal, and the power of Alchemy Technology comes from the energy generated by the reaction of chemicals. This energy supply method is much cheaper than using Hex Crystal and is very popular in Zuan, so you can often see those who have reinforcement bodies, often carrying a tube containing alchemy liquid and many tubes extending out.

Zuan also had the entire city covered by green light and haze because of the existence of alchemy lanterns and various alchemy workshops, and was covered with green light and smog everywhere.

Of course, things cannot be perfect. Behind the cheapness of this alchemy technology, there are huge hidden dangers, such as flammable and explosive, unstable, highly toxic, etc.... After all, it is because of the existence of alchemy technology that Zuan has suffered so many disasters.

But there is no way. Zuan is poor and cannot afford to use Hex Technology, which has a lot to do with Piltwolf. I won’t mention the reason why he is poor. If you continue, there will be no end to 10,000 words. The author of 10,000 words has been coded for three days...

"Mr. Colin wouldn't know Victor?"

"I know, I heard that they are from the same generation and have been in the same laboratory together before. I also peeked at the diary my father hid, which said... Today, a bad day, my project was snatched away by Victor, and the girl I liked was fascinated by Jace again! Damn, I cursed them not bringing paper in the toilet, but only acid and alkali test paper!"

Orianna's face flushed and burst out her father's black history, then she smiled and lay on the workbench, her shoulders trembled. She had too little contact with her peers. Her short academic career led to her not having many friends. This was a suitable opportunity for her to share these embarrassing things.

Geno also had the picture in his brain, well, it was as beautiful as a picture. Unexpectedly, Mr. Colin would have such a sour time. The acid and alkali test strips should test him how acidic his acidity is.

"What happened later?"

"The curse did not take effect later, but Victor broke with the academy in a way that his father didn't know."

"Okay, let's continue with the topic just now."

After Oriana could hold back her smile, Geno began to tell again:

"When it comes to Jace, he was also one of the reasons why Victor broke with the academy. They worked together to improve the diving suit. Their improved suits allowed the wearer to dive deeper, stay longer, and lift heavier objects. But many divers said they saw ghostly corpses underwater or were tortured by hallucinations from alchemy poisons. When divers experience this symptom, they panic and kill themselves and even other divers."

"Is this a poisonous hallucination?" Oriana said curiously.

"This is a mental illness, deep-sea phobia. People always feel inexplicable fear when facing unknown things."

"Just like when I see some people who are afraid of sitting and screaming? They are afraid of high places."

“Acrophobia is a little different, but it’s almost the same.”

Oriana smiled complacently because she learned a few new words and gained knowledge. Geno had adjusted the context and said in a deep voice:

"Victor believes that this is not a technical problem, but that the divers have mental breakdowns in the dark deep water and that underwater operations are frequent. For this reason, he designed an alchemy special helmet, which can be directed by an operator on the water surface, ignoring the diver's fear reaction, which is equivalent to completely controlling the diver."
Chapter completed!
