Chapter 390: Unit-01 Concept
"What are you doing? Why is it so messy?"
Zhang Tuohai stepped on an eyeball that was rolling past his eyes and picked it up.
Zhang Tuohai was shocked to find that the eyeball was actually made of glass and filled with precision mechanical parts.
He picked up the oil bottle from the table, walked to Lilina, and helped her hold down the half of her head that was screaming.
With the cooperation of the two, Lilina finally installed a set of gears.
"Phew - I'm so tired." Lilith took the eyeball from Zhang Tuohai and stuffed it into the eye socket of half of the head.
"Ah, I'm blind and can't see anything!" Half of the head shouted loudly.
"You're looking in the wrong direction, you idiot." Lilina said helplessly.
"Really? Don't lie to me!" Half of the head began to adjust its eyeballs, and the metal eyeball began to spin around in the eye socket.
"Ah, it turns out to be true, I finally saw it! Hahaha, I am the god of Gurana hidden in the darkness, the world..."
"Shut up!"
Lilina casually stuck a screwdriver into the gap of a set of gears. The gears could not turn, and that half of the head could not speak. It could only keep changing its mouth shape, but no sound came out.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Tuohai pulled a stool, sat down and asked.
He clearly remembered that Lilina was studying ways to recover the body, so how come she came up with so many mechanical creations?
What are all these messy things in the room?
"You're talking about this, but it's not my sister... I think that a body made of ordinary flesh is too fragile. It can neither resist fire nor blades. It relies too much on constant temperature. Even if the air quality is slightly worse, it will cause a survival crisis. In the end, I think it's better to go with a combination of flesh and machinery. However, it's still in the experimental stage, and there's something wrong with this guy's personality setting, so he became like this."
"However, these are all minor problems and can be solved quickly. You have to believe in my sister...my strength." Lilina added that she was afraid that Zhang Tuohai would feel that the prospects of the experiment were not optimistic and would stop providing funding.
"If you like pure physicality, you can also conduct relevant research. However, it will be difficult to improve the physical torso's ability to withstand blows. The input and output are not proportional."
Lilina tilted her head towards the brooch on her chest and continued.
"It doesn't matter. Just follow your research. The stronger the ability to withstand attacks, the better."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tuohai waved his hand and agreed to Lilina's research direction.
What he needs are obedient servants and helpers. Of course, the stronger the ability to withstand attacks, the better. As long as the strength is strong enough, it doesn't matter even if they are not in human form.
A fully flesh servant has no advantages other than being able to warm the bed.
"Really? I'm glad you agreed. I thought you would choose the one with lots of extra fat ."
Lilina gestured.
"If we have it, that would be the best. If not, that's also OK. Performance takes priority. Thank you." Zhang Tuohai took the water cup handed over by the steam self-propelled machine.
"Actually, if we really have to add one, I have an idea. We can put some ultra-micro rockets in it and leave it there. It will definitely not attract any attention."
Lilina explained her idea.
"If you think it's too troublesome, you can put caltrops inside. If anyone dares to touch it, their hands will be full of holes. To increase the power, I can also poison the caltrops."
“Cough cough cough…”
Zhang Tuohai almost choked to death on a mouthful of water. He was stunned by Lilina's idea. If he hadn't had cerebral thrombosis for 20 years, he would never have come up with such a transformation plan.
Rockets and caltrops are poisoned...
So you don't do anything that has anything to do with people, right?
Why don't you put a mousetrap in your mouth?
"Forget it, forget it, just follow your original design idea. I also think that the excess fat is too much of a nuisance, so just remove it."
Zhang Tuohai said quickly.
"Really? I knew you had the same idea as me. I don't know why those guys like such cumbersome things. If they like heavy things, they can just hang two anvils."
Lilina expressed her point of view.
"If we follow your current idea, how long will it take to complete Unit-01?"
Because there are ready-made design ideas and design manuscripts, the only thing that needs to be estimated is the power source. According to current estimates, it will take a few more days to complete the assembly of Unit-01.
Lilina tilted her head and responded.
"I see," Zhang Tuohai felt that it took a long time, so he said, "By the way, I suddenly had an idea, can you give me some advice?"
Upon hearing this, Lilina immediately sat up straight and took out her notebook to take notes.
"I have an idea. Since it is a combination of a mechanical body and a human body, can we not be bound by the human body's appearance? Can we add some accessories, such as a mechanical arm?"
"Look, there are always many things that cannot be taken care of with two hands. For example, before, you needed me to help you hold the oil can and hold down half of Unit-01's head. But if you had six hands, the problem would become simple. You could hold down the head with two hands, handle the gears with two hands, hold the oil can with one hand, and pass the tools with one hand."
"The efficiency is immediately improved. Moreover, if you think the robot arm is not good-looking, you can modify it into a plug-in type. You can install it when you need it and remove it when you don't need it."
When Lilina heard what Zhang Tuohai said, the brooch on her chest began to shine.
Zhang Tuohai's words opened a door for her.
"Yes, since you have already given up your perfect human body, why should you be bound by the human appearance? If you add a thousand mechanical arms to your new body, wouldn't the efficiency of your experiments be greatly increased?"
"Two legs are too easy to get injured, so the tracks of a steam-propelled machine are good. It's just that there are some problems when walking on stairs, but we can add a few more mechanical legs to assist, so that it can be easily solved."
"Also, we can consider expanding the size. This way, the problem of miniaturizing the power system will be much easier. Moreover, I can also install the differential engine in it, which may improve the computing efficiency."
Lilith had a lot of thoughts in an instant, and even the brooch that possessed her was constantly flashing.
"By the way, the turning range of the robotic arm is limited after all. Can we study some mechanical tentacles that imitate the tentacles of octopuses? This way, the robotic arm will be more flexible. These can also be made into plug-in type and placed at the back, and installed when needed."
Zhang Tuohai thought of the Doctor Octopus he saw in the movie and elaborated on some of the ideas in it.
