Walking against the light - rebuilding Homo sapiens

More than 400 years ago, people on Monida held funerals.Moreover, the ceremony was complicated.From washing the body, to trimming, tidying, wrapping, burning, and then to coffining and burial.Every step carries awe of the dead and respect for life.However, after that interstellar war and the hundreds of millions of tons of Pta metal powder, life fell, like kicking on a ripe plum tree, and there was no time to clean it up.Anyway, on such a planet, life has no meaning at all.For almost 100 years, the planet was filled with a stench.

Four humanoid robots stood in the middle of the wasteland, with their arms folded over their chests. In each of their minds, the images of human death were different, but they all had the same brutality and ferocity.

"From then on, ashes to ashes, dust to dust~" Finally, Hu grabbed a handful of sand and sprinkled it next to the pile of soil that had just been buried, and made a sign of the cross on his chest—this was the gesture of his grandmother when he was praying in his memory.

"If one day I die in a foreign land, I hope I can also get such a funeral." Hoss has already recovered for the most part, and now he is lying on the window with Dan and Xiaomaru looking into the distance.Only four wobbly dots can be seen with the naked eye.

"When you die, you don't know anything. I'd rather die without a burial, and I want to live every day while I'm alive." Dan patted Hoss on the shoulder, and lost a lot of weight after being sick for a few days, "Hurry up Get better!"

……

Back on Hu and Reagan's maglev vehicle.

Lance smiled wryly and pulled Allen aside, "Hey~ I didn't expect this day to finally come."

"Huh?" Allen didn't know why.

"Lick my finger with your tongue! Haha!" Lance stretched out an index finger and placed it in front of Allen. "This is all the money you asked me to keep, in case there is any accident..."

Allen's tongue twitched in his mouth, and he regretted it [-] times. Why did he install the payment system of the electronic bank on his tongue in the first place!

"There will be no surprises. Although I haven't directly experienced Hu's programming ability, I investigated it when I returned to origc last time. His ability is indeed very strong! The center didn't reuse him back then, but because of the principle of ability balance, the ability was overrated. The strong machine should be suspended for a period of time, waiting for other machines to be upgraded." Allen straightened his tongue and pressed it back to Lance's finger.

"Hey~ Forget it, anyway, you are going to invade my body in a while, and there is nothing you can hide from all account passwords!" Lance retracted his fingers, turned and left, took only two steps, and turned around again , "Hey! There is a file marked ghost on my central storage space, don't open it unless it is a last resort, okay?"

"secret?"

"To be exact, it's privacy!"

"It's hard to say. It's not my style to take the opportunity to squint your eyes when it's already intruded into your body!" Allen laughed.

"It's about a person's memory. For me, it is very precious. Don't invade or destroy it unless it is absolutely necessary." Lance said with a serious face.

Allen also became serious and nodded.

……

All the ventilation equipment on the maglev vehicle was running, but even so, the cabin was still unbearably hot.The four humanoid robots were wrapped in the heat waves emitted from their bodies due to their high-speed operation.

There happened to be a shadow covered by the maglev vehicle in the puddle outside the carriage. Dan lay there with only his face showing.

It seems that he is adapting to the climate here little by little, Dan can clearly feel it.But compared with the almost omnipotent humanized robots in the car, he is still like a weak chicken.Many times, you can't even understand what they're saying.For example, that Qiang Zilla, who had no grievances with him, actually played tricks to sign a contract with Allen and Lance about himself.There is also the younger brother of Qianzilla, Enila, who sent people from all over the world to arrest him, and Hu and Reagan almost participated in it.This... Dan's thoughts drifted further and further away, the temperature of the water scorched by the sun was several degrees lower than the temperature of the ground, if he couldn't even hold on to this point...he forced himself to lie down in the water for a while.

In the car, Lun Sichi was lying on the experimental bed, and a data cable came out from the back of his neck and directly connected to Hu's smart screen.On the other side, Allen lay quietly on a chair, with his hands on Lance's wrists, and his eyes closed.

Hu will generate a lot of fragments and junk information when searching. Allen will help him sort out these fragments and delete the junk information. When encountering calculations that Hu needs time-consuming to solve, he will call his own processor to help with calculations.Both of them shuttled through Lens' system, and their cooperation was seamless, but time passed by, and even the location of the damn virus hadn't been anchored yet.

Reagan controls the ventilation device of the maglev vehicle, and in order to ensure their normal operation, cooling is indispensable.If the physical method does not work, we can only think of other methods.He took out the newly developed cooling agent from the laboratory.It was just a whim, and I made it for fun, but I didn't expect it to come in handy.

This cooling agent is a silver-gray powder. After adding water, it can absorb the heat in the air and lower the temperature.

"Hey!" Reagan opened the car door and shouted at Dan who was still in the puddle, "Get some water!"

"What's wrong?" Dan asked, turning quickly and getting up, "Is there any progress?"

Reagan shook his head, Chancela was much stronger than he imagined, but he was still full of confidence, "With Hu and Allen here, there is absolutely no problem, the temperature in the car is too high, we need to cool down, don't talk so much, hurry up Come up with water!" Reagan threw down a bucket as he spoke.

Dan picked up the bucket, scooped it in the puddle, climbed into the car, followed Reagan's instructions, sprinkled cooling agents around the bodies of Hu, Allen, and Lance, and then drenched them with water.As a thick white mist rose, the temperature in the compartment dropped little by little.Dan, who fell to the drenched body, immediately shivered.

"Hey! Are you okay?" Reagan took out a lab coat from the closet and threw it to Dan.

"Hmm! No problem," Dan took off his shirt with a wave of his hand, took the lab coat from Reagan and put it on, "It's just more sensitive than your machines!"

"Hehe! You are getting better and better now!" Reagan said, giving a thumbs up. "In the future, there will be more and more Homo sapiens in Monida. I feel relieved when I see you."

"why?"

"You are a kind human being!" Reagan gave Dan another bottle of silver-gray powder, "This is a product of random play, and the effect is not long, let's make it a few more times!"

"Yeah!" Dan carried the bucket, from the puddle to the car, from the car to the puddle, and back and forth countless times, he saw Allen's brows became more and more tightly wrinkled, "Did you find something?"

Hu's fingers tapped on the keyboard quickly, and his special metal teeth were rattled.

"Shh! Looks like there's progress!" Reagan pulled Dan aside.

"In the central storage space, under the folder called ghost!" Allen roared, opened his eyes suddenly, got up and walked to Hu's side, "Quick! Time is running out, under ghost!"

Unless it was a last resort, Lance refused to let them enter this folder. Allen was under pressure and checked all the places twice before confirming this place.

Hu nodded, but his fingertips were no longer in control. It was not the first time he had worked continuously for such a long time, but it was the first time he had worked with such high intensity.

"It's too hot! I can't keep up with the speed! I have to take a break!" Hu's vocal cord device was burned to the point of hoarseness, and he was begging for mercy.

"I'll do it!" Allen sat back in the chair, put Lance's arm on him, closed his eyes, and the system was running rapidly.

"Are you okay?" Dan patted Hu on the shoulder and asked with concern.

"Just take a break!" Hu lay on the keyboard in front of the smart screen, and Reagan gently stroked his braids.
