Chapter 35 Reinforcement

"Collaborating with bandits", "collaborating with thieves", colluding with thieves, if placed in the feudal era, this could be considered a felony.

Even in modern society, "harboring" is a criminal offense. The "right to privacy" is not an unlimited right.

But in this day and age, everything that does not contradict Dyson's principles is permissible.

There is no force that can stop an ordinary person and a thug who has lost the protection of civilization from loving each other and even doing business.

Ah, of course, telling the mob about an individual or a group of intelligence actually helps the mob commit atrocities, so this behavior is still regarded as an indirect violation of individual life and private property.The victim is free to take revenge on the betrayer.

But this power is also limited to the victim, and to the agents whom the victim himself entrusts.Others cannot interfere, and the lord has no need or right to interfere with this kind of behavior.

To put it simply, "traitors" will not lose the protection of civilization.

Enoch betrayed the town, but only the residents of the town have the right to take revenge on Enoch.

As for others, it is just that they have better friendship with traitors, and they will not be punished in any way.

Although Xiang Shan felt that this logic was a bit awkward, he also believed that one person should be responsible for the work, even if the other party is his enemy, he should not get too involved.

Those Enoch's cronies... Even if the people in the town believe that they also participated in the betrayal, it has nothing to do with him?

"No, it was before." Dr. Schultz carefully considered his words: "When the tax officials came, you were pushed into the arena... I know about this matter. According to them, that matter is also Enoch planned it, and the person who did it was called Willy, a worker... but Willy is dead."

"Dead?" Xiang Shan became a little interested: "Didn't he escape?"

"Half a month ago, Willie and Enoch went to the city. Then, Enoch came back alone and said that Willie was killed by the mob." Dr. Schultz explained: "I'm afraid Enoch didn't just betray us. , and those who betrayed him..."

"I understand." Xiang Shan nodded: "Enoch... this guy, I remember."

He did not say what to do with Enoch.Schultz didn't dare to ask.

Xiang Shan thought this was quite strange.In his mind, there seemed to be a part reminding him that this kind of behavior of judging others with personal morality needs to be cautious.But there are also some things telling him that the existence of "chivalry" has special legal support.

A long time ago, he...and other friends...seem to have thought about it a few times...

—Who are you guys?

Xiang Shan would think like this whenever he felt this way.

Why is martial arts that was originally an illusion turned into reality by technology?Who are he and his friends?

Forget it, if you can't think of it, don't think about it for the time being.

Xiang Shan recovered part of his internal strength.Especially "Three Moves to Slay the Dragon".In this world where there is a lot of surveillance, it is not very difficult to hunt down and kill a person - after all, Enoch uses an industrial prosthetic body, does not know any martial arts at all, and cannot survive in the wilderness.He can only escape within a limited range.

Let's get this over with when things settle down here.

There are still more than ten days before the resumption of shelter in Recycle Bin Town.During these more than ten days, Xiang Shan planned to be active around this small town.

Dr. Schultz saluted Xiang Shan and was about to leave.

Xiang Shan stopped him: "Doctor, by the way, I have a question. How is Yuki's child now?"

"The heart, liver, and kidneys have been replaced, and the aorta has basically been replaced with artificial materials. The ribs are solid, but slightly damaged. It will be fine after a period of recuperation. The medical expenses are also sufficient, and you have already paid for it, hero."

In this battle, Xiangshan harvested three metal-based spines.Due to size considerations, he kept the one belonging to Paulus, and sold Leif and Ronconi's to Dr. Schultz for medical fees and related expenses for purchasing parts.

As a master, it is not difficult to spend this little money for his disciples.

Xiang Shan nodded: "That's good."

He had the intention to go and see the situation of his disciples himself.But Yuki's mother is by Yuki's side now.When approaching the mountain, Yulia blew the whistle to warn.

Of course Xiang Shan would not be afraid of Yulia.But he didn't want to continue to visit Yuki because of this.

Xiangshan accepted Yuki as his disciple, on the one hand, because he felt that in this era, having martial arts would be more conducive to survival, which is "repaying kindness"; on the other hand, he also needed a trustworthy assistant to help him complete the brain chip. some operations.

But now, he already has multiple chips attached to the brain-computer interface, and has several spares, and the accuracy of the prosthetic hand has also been greatly improved.The need for "assistants" is not so great.

After all, Yulia is Yuki's guardian and family.

Perhaps in Yulia's eyes, Xiang Shan was just bringing danger to her son.

Apart from Yulia, the other townspeople's attitude towards Xiang Shan was mixed with fear.This feeling has intensified ever since Xiang Shan destroyed Longkoni's biological brain.

Xiang Shan couldn't even find a suitable base.He ended up moving everything to a scrap parts recycling station.

Those elderly and handicapped whose biological brains have deteriorated to the point of unconsciousness are actually the only people in the town whose attitude towards Xiang Shan remains the same.

After Xiang Shan gave some parts to those guys, they greeted Xiang Shan happily.

Xiang Shan rested here.Afterwards, Dr. Schultz also came to help Xiang Shan.

It's just that Xiang Shan only asked Dr. Schultz to help with the rest of the prosthetic hand.

A powerful internal skill master can plant countless talismans and Gu for you when preparing the prosthetic body.For the choice of maintenance division, Xia Ke is very cautious.

If you want to fight against the enemies of a world with a mere individual, you must be cautious.

After receiving the new prosthetic hands, Xiang Shan first used the secret technique of "do not sweep the house" to monitor the electronic devices inside the prosthetic hands to confirm whether there is a back door that he knows...

Ah, no, it should say "confirm how many backdoors there are".

Except for his own eyes, Xiang Shan has never seen a prosthetic body without back doors and loopholes after waking up.It's pretty much the norm in this day and age.

but……

——Speaking of which, the loopholes in the prosthetic body driver that I all know have been left until today... Why am I so stumped that I have only slept for more than ten years?

It's not that Xiang Shan didn't think about using Leif's prosthetic body directly.Leif's prosthetic body has a high degree of completion, whether it is a vector injector, energy system, power system or other equipment, it can be said that it has the necessary qualities for most martial arts in foreign martial arts.

But embarrassingly, Xiang Shan didn't have a suitable driver.Leif's own driver chip has been burned, and the driver chip obtained from Paulus and Longconi is not compatible with the high-performance heavy-duty prosthetic body.

This is a very odd bit.The protocols used in the chips of Paulus and Longconi are quite different, and they may not be compatible at all.This is still at the hardware level.

This was almost unimaginable in the era Xiang Shan was familiar with.

If "data" is like vocabulary, then "protocol" is grammar.Only the vocabulary arranged through grammar is a meaningful "sentence" that the machine can understand correctly.

The CPU and hard disk removed from one computer can be plugged into another computer, and most of them can be used.At that time, roughly the same protocol was used around the world.Smart devices are pursuing "compatibility with more types of hardware".

This also ensures that when users update software or hardware, developers do not have to compile applications from scratch for new devices or new platforms. The previous programs are still valid in the new environment, and programs on low-end smart devices can also be replaced by more advanced ones. run by smart devices.

But people in this era don't seem to care about this at all.

"It's hard to understand." Xiang Shan shook his head at this.In his view, the development of science and technology should have moved in the direction of "convenience" and "unification".The separation caused by this technical level will only increase the operating costs of the entire society.

No, in this era, there may not be any "society" to speak of.

Dr. Schultz eventually escaped and left the scrap parts recycling facility.Xiangshan went out.I found those handicapped people with new parts dancing happily at the door.They still occasionally fall—that’s the result of their extremely degraded brains often doing operations that conflict with the balance system.

There are still four prosthetic bodies piled up at the door.One of them appeared to be a tractor that had been burned to pieces.It was that of the nameless enemy.Leif's prosthetics were stacked on top, with Paulus and Ronconi's prosthetics leaning to the side.

Dr. Schultz just removed Longconi's prosthetic hand.

He walked over to the mountain and picked up Longconi's prosthetic body.There should be many useful parts on this prosthetic body without head and hands.

The time to prepare yourself is now.Xiang Shan had a vague premonition.He will definitely face more enemies and more battles in the future.

This time the battle made Xiang Shan sure.He had indeed fought all the way in the past.Only by fighting can he get back to the past.

Although I don't know what I lost before, why I fell into such a situation.But Xiang Shan feels that since fate has saved him from death and awakened him in this era, then there must be something he needs to do in this era.

Xiang Shan put the silver prosthetic body on the console.

He even found a suspected target.

——Father of all machines.

According to the legend, the person who opened up a new era and led mankind to get rid of the shackles of primitive evolution and enter a new era.Not an emperor, not a god, a person with a completely different status.

There is no doubt that he is Xiang Shan's enemy.
