"We finally jumped out of the cage."

As soon as Lu Hui finished speaking, the atmosphere in the car immediately became lively.

At this time, the oldest member of the humanoid team is Raphael, who is already 12 years old (), and Greenhui is undoubtedly the youngest.

For Xiao Si, she has not had a few days of peace since she was born.

He first worked as a bodyguard for Director Harry B. Carnegie, then was responsible for security work at the Frankfurt Institute, and received combat training in his spare time. Then he lived a life of combat during the great evacuation and blockade.

As a bionic humanoid, Luhui inherited Raphael's beauty, with delicate facial features as beautiful as a doll.

No matter what skill you learn, you can learn it in a blink of an eye.

As someone who has experienced this, Raphael certainly knows what to do next.

It can be seen that Luhui is very excited, and there is no need to say much. After all, there is no reason to stop her from being happy and excited.

Luhui, Lingyin and Feiniao were chatting enthusiastically while scrolling through their phones.

"Oh? I finally couldn't hold it back and hit him." Asuka said.

"Ah... Regarding this matter, maybe we'll see news of the Canadian army's surrender tomorrow."

Raphael honked the horn hard, urging the rookie driver who was turning in front of him to move his car quickly.

The traffic was already extremely congested, and now a guy driving recklessly came and the slowly moving traffic finally came to a complete stop.

About half an hour later, the sky began to darken, and Raphael and his team finally entered the border of Leipzig.

Now it's truly safe.

Asuka suddenly asked, "Should we contact the research institute? Or Harry?"

"What if... I don't want either of them? What do you think?"

"You know, we can't do that right now."

Raphael said with a faint smile on his face:

"I'm a bit annoyed. Forget about the Russians, I have a grudge against them.

The US special forces also joined this time, and they ignored our identification signals..."

All signs convinced her that someone within the US military wanted her to die in the chaotic Frankfurt.

Maybe not dying, but being taken back.

In short, they came with malicious intentions.

Several days of tracking and frequent gunfights made it impossible for Raphael to say a word from the enemy's perspective.

Contact Harry now?

Yes, but it turns out that capturing just two spies does not help protect the whereabouts of the android team.

Raphael felt that Harry's current power as Chief of Staff of the Strategic Air Command might not be as great as that of the Director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency.

Besides, there is no such thing as a thief on duty for a thousand days.

If everyone in their camp has their own ulterior motives, they will be defeated sooner or later.

Everything is one-way transparent, so it is very easy to target. No matter what you do now, you must pay attention to the right to information.

The last electromagnetic attack suspected to be EMP almost paralyzed them on the spot.

If it happens again, with proper coordination of manpower, the humanoid team will definitely not be able to escape.

"In the future, we will face more enemies," Raphael said suddenly.

Asuka's answer was plain, but decisive:

"As long as they can't come up with EMP attack weapons, I'm confident I can repel them."

Being treated like this, no matter how good her temper was, she couldn't keep silent any longer.

For her, Raphael himself is their spiritual support for continuing to exist and live freely.

Even if one day in the future a puppet doll like her obtains a fully functional Ruin-type Mind Core and acts independently without the support of the host, Asuka's attitude will always remain the same.

"Want to do it again?"

"..."

"Right, it's hard to handle, isn't it?"

Asuka recalled the scene when the EMP impact came that day, and she immediately suggested:

“From now on, if there is a moment when you are faced with the scenario we hypothesized, I suggest that your host - Raphael - immediately withdraw all online data support.

At the same time, issue simple combat instructions to the puppet to buy time for your escape!"

Chapter 73 Bounty

"That's too extreme, you."

"No, you are the one who is extreme."

Asuka held the steering wheel with both hands and analyzed in a methodical manner:

"This is the purpose of the puppet humanoid. Under the command of the humanoid host, it fights autonomously according to the predetermined combat logic."

"so what?"

"The problem is with you. Have you ever felt that 'we' have gone too far?"

"Too much autonomy? There's nothing wrong with that."

Raphael tilted his head and looked at Asuka in confusion.

"I just followed the order and provided basic data to activate the puppet core."

Thinking of the situation at that time, her mood suddenly became heavy. Just activating the puppet, someone tried to disguise the little bug into the authentication identification data while shaking hands with the agreement...

Humans created her, but they treated her with malice. Raphael felt that "artificial intelligence" should not have emotions, but the bitter feeling of being deceived and betrayed plucked his heartstrings, making Raphael want to turn off the emotional module several times.

Her inexplicable cyber intuition vaguely reminded her that shutting down the emotional module might make things worse.

"You are subconsciously longing for your own kind, right?"

Asuka said it was a question, but it was actually an affirmation.

"If you were me, wouldn't you want to see the birth of your own kind?"

"Actually, I'm not your kind."

Hearing Fei Niao's calm voice, Raphael couldn't help but grab the steering wheel hard, and his fingertips became cold from the force.

"then who are you?"

"I am you..." Asuka narrowed her eyes with a smile, "a part of you."

"Tsk, you won't be one anymore."

"is it?"

Asuka put away her smile and put on her usual expressionless face to hide her true feelings.

Following the map, landmark buildings and the compass told them the location of Karl Marx University of Leipzig.

Just like all the visitors who came here, and like criminals with ulterior motives who arrived early to scout the area, they just drove around the periphery, then merged into the traffic and disappeared.

"...No enemy was found. What about the road conditions..."

Lu Hui was operating a portable notebook.

"Based on past data, it is predicted that the traffic will be smooth for about two hours in the next period of time. We can contact that person now."

Lingyin turned sideways to glance at Lvhui's computer screen, and the control system interface of the Leipzig Traffic Management Center appeared on the screen.

"Uh…Raphael, did you do that?"

"Don't panic, just basic operations."

"The location of the enemy's machine has not yet been locked. It seems that Discord only exists in the Main-Frankfurt area." Asuka said.

"But we still can't slack off."

Raphael did not call directly, but sent an encrypted email using the phone they borrowed from the gangster.

After sending the message successfully, she threw the phone out of the car and let it be crushed by a following vehicle.

"Where to go next?" Asuka asked.

"Let's head to our safe house first. If everything goes well, we can be safe for a while."

"We arranged that in advance when the institute was preparing to evacuate."

Fei Niao put his hand on the car window, took in the passers-by on the roadside, and spoke lightly.

"It will take about two hours to get there from here."

"By the way, who are the people fighting with us in downtown Frankfurt this time?"

Lingyin mentioned this matter with an unhappy look on her face.

"When they last engaged in battle, they all seemed to display physical abilities that were completely different from their usual self... It was like they had suddenly taken stimulants."

"Oh, this."

Speaking of such performance, the faces of the members of the "Noble Squad" flashed through Raphael's mind.

Xilia Ant has used something similar before, which greatly improved her body's athletic ability in a short period of time and also had the effect of suppressing pain.

Lingyin continued:

“I think the team that can get this drug is probably not a serious special forces unit.

Think about it, we have contact with the T1 echelon that is normally under the jurisdiction of the JSOC Joint Special Operations Command.

They don’t have this drug in their inventory of equipment for overseas deployments, just the regular emergency pain relief injections.”

"Maybe." Raphael thought for a moment and said, "Remember my laptop that will never be connected to the Internet?"

"I haven't seen it before. Is there anything special?"

"It's okay if I don't know. Anyway, listening to your description, I remembered something that happened in the past. Someone used a drug with similar effects.

However, it will not be issued to the military, but only to SHD agents on missions in fully blocked areas."

"It's suspected of illegal transactions. Let me think..."

Fei Niao reported two websites:

"Similar drug transactions can often be seen here, although they are mainly used for arms transactions. By the way, a message was posted in the bounty section there seven hours ago."

"what news?"

"You've got a bounty on your head, Raphael."

"How much is it worth?"

"Two million."

"Only two million, so little."

Raphael was delighted when she heard about the reward, but she was disappointed by the exact value.

"It seems that there will be many people who come to trouble us in the future."

"That's right. Fortunately, the person who posted the bounty didn't mention words like 'autonomous humanoid', 'artificial intelligence', or 'core', which means he wants to retrieve it privately."

Facing what Fei Niao said, Raphael was filled with anxiety, fear, excitement, and unconcealed expectations. Perhaps, this could be the turning point for their situation to change - but Raphael immediately thought that he shouldn't have such thoughts.

Because this is really dangerous, if you are not careful you will end up losing all your chips.

The physical data obtained from Harry B. Carnegie could soon be verified. Asuka once again demonstrated her financial talent and quickly accumulated a huge amount of wealth.

What is lacking now is enough investment opportunities.

Regardless of size, the key components of the bionic humanoid cannot be produced in a centralized manner. They must be manufactured in a decentralized manner as much as possible and must be mixed in with normal production tasks.

The new firmware driver was a piece of cake for Raphael, he just wanted to add a backup system to the machine.

This is to prepare for the day when humans come up with a means of checks and balances. They can quickly update the firmware system and drive the body again.
