"Darling, are you ready?"
On the wedding night, the bride, her face flushed, said shyly.
"Of course," Gao Gong's voice was hoarse and excited.
"But I have a secret to tell you."
"Go ahead."
The bride shed her outer garment, revealing her white lingerie and skin, her skin tender and rosy, catching Gao Gong's eye.
"Actually, I'm a Bionic Man."
The bride gently tore along her chest, and her artificial skin came off like clothing, revealing a body full of electronic components and mechanical organs.
Gao Gong was silent for a moment and said, "It's okay, darling, I'm not old-fashioned, I don't mind."
The bride sighed with relief and gave a flirtatious white-eyed glance.
"I specially installed new circuit breakers and deflectors for the wedding, lucky you."
"Darling, I also have a secret to tell you.
"What?"
Gao Gong stood up, revealing a Schwarzenegger-like body, and with his thoughts turning, a mechanical body emerged.
"Actually, I'm an Artificial Intelligence!"
"What!?" The bride's expression changed, "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
"I was afraid you'd be scared."
"I'm not afraid," the bride paused: "But I only date with people who have more than 50% organic bodies, only go to bed with life forms that have more than 85% organic components, it's my principle."
"What? Then wasn't installing Mr. Great Tree in vain!?" Gao Gong said angrily.
The bride rolled her eyes flirtatiously, suddenly laughed, and said, "Have you heard? Beautiful Interconnection Company offers the latest type of tactile transducer, with it, we can share the newest life connection..."
Gao Gong's eyes suddenly lost their luster.
In reality, Gao Gong removed the Memory Chip from the back of his head, looking annoyed as he threw this 'unforgettable wedding night of the newlyweds' into the trash can.
"Damn it, it's actually an implanted advertisement, creating false memories is illegal!"
Approaching late night, Gao Gong was studying the chips he brought into his new studio, located downstairs; it was a rental storefront with two rooms, the back being the transformation room, the front being the store, beneath bulletproof glass cabinets lay the newly manufactured Prosthetic Body Whiteboard.
Renting this store and manufacturing these Prosthetic Bodies cost him about 500,000 Mechanic Tokens. If not for earning a sum from that virtual idol, it wouldn't have come together in such a short time.
Indeed, no matter where you are, it's always easy to earn money from rich ladies.
The neon lights flashed at night, and the loudspeakers kept shouting. Luckily, Gao Gong specially bought a sonic rebound device to place at the door; inside and outside were two different worlds.
'Like me, doing Prosthetic Body transformations openly, probably only this one shop.'
Prosthetic Doctors are a group of reclusive people, constantly engaged in all kinds of Forbidden Transformations, with a mentality that's either dark or perverted, making it impossible to conduct business openly like Gao Gong.
Especially doing business with players.
Gao Gong poured out all the Memory Chips and started searching through them, occasionally inserting them into the implantation slot on the back of his neck.
It's been almost a week since coming to the Nightless City, and the biggest transformation Gao Gong had done was actually installing two implantation slots.
"In my impressions, it's the memory of a Neural Editor..."
Mechanical Split Star is the early plot of "Cyber Realm", and anything memorable to Gao Gong is either related to the main line or exceedingly curious.
And the reason for the unforgettable memory of this 'Memory Chip' was indeed because it was too bizarre.
A player in the previous life loved exploring the world, wandered all over Nightless City, and naturally wandered into the Memory Store. Out of curiosity, he bought a bunch of Memory Chips.
This kind of 'Memory Chip' offers players a free experience of someone else's world, which was quite attractive to him.
After purchasing numerous Memory Chips, this player finally accessed a memory of a 'Neural Editor.'
Neural Editors were similar to ancient programmers, but quite different; mainly because programmers typically just lost hair, but if a Neural Editor wrote the wrong code, causing a bug that led to sensory data backlashing the neural system, it could be fatal.
And that 'Neural Editor' was very clever; whenever an error code appeared, he would first cut and copy this segment of memory code onto a Memory Chip, a preventive operation.
Gradually, the entire Memory Chip was filled with error codes, and then in a coincidental program generation, these codes merged into a bug.
This bug was a top-tier one called 'User Data Loss.'
And in the Cyber Network, users themselves are a kind of data.
"Ha, found it!"
A Memory Chip was picked up, with a line of words on a white paper label on its surface — The Hair and Youth I Lost.
Gao Gong didn't hesitate, plugging it into the back of his neck.
A violent data stream instantly filled his shell.
Generally speaking, only with the aid of a 'Network Access Chamber' can sensory data be deciphered; if data is implanted directly into the human body, it could cause physical collapse.
But this was a bug, and as everyone knows, bugs never take the usual path.
And in an instant, Gao Gong experienced the madness of the bug.
[Your Sports System has shut down automatically due to special reason data loss]
[Your Endocrine System has shut down automatically due to special reason data loss]
[Your Digestive System has shut down automatically due to special reason data loss]
...
The advanced weapons like Carbon Atom Reactor, Reproductive Soldier Body, and Steel Gun Banner were all out of contact.
Similarly, large areas of skills had turned gray.
However, Gao Gong was not worried. According to that player, as long as the consciousness exceeded 50 points, this bug could be controlled.
[Your neural system is experiencing a disorder]
[Your neural system transformation rate +1%]
[Your neural system is experiencing a disorder]
[Your neural system transformation rate +1%]
[User data lost]
[User data lost]
After Gao Gong's neural system experienced several disorders, strands of mental tentacles suddenly tore out from his chest, and other parts of his body began to turn into numbers, symbols, and codes, embedding themselves on the surface of the tentacles.
Gao Gong abruptly opened his eyes, looked at his hands and feet, and noticed no changes. He glanced at the system panel, and it was the same.
"It's interesting that the bug's power doesn't show up on the system panel."
Gao Gong muttered to himself, gently placing his palm on the desktop. The next moment, the desktop cracked rapidly, but when his palm brushed over, the shattered anomaly disappeared.
"It can affect reality to a certain extent, but after all, I am not an informational organism, so this influence is very limited."
"But in the Cyber Network, a bug is truly a bug."
...
'Boom' 'Boom' 'Boom' 'Boom'
The elevator continuously ascended, containing a super cute and adorable young boy.
Gao Gong logged into the Cyber Network once again.
'Ding'
As the elevator doors opened, the boy in a suit walked out, and many red signs appeared on the street: 'Imperial City', 'Imperial Hotel', 'Shark Fin Rice', 'Ancient Tongren Hall', 'Dragon and Tiger Seafood Restaurant'.
Passing through virtual lion dances beating gongs and drums, Gao Gong observed the surroundings with great interest.
Generally speaking, the environment generated by data nodes is inseparable from a person's subconscious, indicating that there are quite a few remnants of the Civilization Era in the Nightless City.
"Friend, do you want to buy some medicine? The latest type of mental drugs, the kind that can get you high."
Gao Gong's shoulder was grabbed by someone, and he turned his head to see a humanoid robot grinning at him, revealing a toothless mouth.
In Cyber Space, there are even more robots and AI; their bottom logic is fixed, making it easier to retain consciousness within the Cyber Network.
"No, thank you."
"Don't be so polite, why not check out other things? I have digital partners, neural stream stimulation, or you could embed an AI personality to double your brain's operational speed."
Seeing that the other party wouldn't let go, Gao Gong understood that they were eyeing his consciousness code, intending to engage in forced buying and selling.
The peerless young man gave a shy smile, causing a stir in the robot's heart. Just when the robot thought Gao Gong agreed, the hand gripping his shoulder began to disintegrate, the hand, arm, and shoulder turning into source code, scattered all around.
"You, you—you—"
"If the electronic personality of a machine life-form explodes in Cyber Space, will your shell in the real world crash, or will your system regenerate a new personality? How about guessing?"
After three seconds, the code, like shattered glass, scattered all over the ground. The surrounding pedestrians briefly paused, then silently squatted down, grabbing the glass shards and shoving them into their mouths.
These were all physical puppets, essentially the subconscious of real people. Although they couldn't ascend to Cyber Space, their subconsciousnesses were part of this vast virtual world.
Once a person's subconscious devours enough consciousness code, it evolves into a lifeform in Cyber Space.
For real-world people, this is equivalent to a personality split.
Not long into his stroll, Gao Gong encountered three drug dealers, a subconscious vendor, and a data ghost, confirming that there weren't many Black Wing Killers in this data node; otherwise, there wouldn't be so many 'viruses'.
The Electronic Brain Plan was implemented, in part, because of the sheer number of 'viruses'.
These viruses cannot be turned into computational power for Cyber Space, so they must be eliminated.
"Hmm?"
As Gao Gong turned onto a street, all the physical puppets on the street simultaneously looked over.
The skin on these physical puppets' faces split apart, revealing an old woman's face.
At the same time, giant teeth emerged from the two restaurants on the sides, and a sticky data stream began dripping from the sky.
'It's her!'
Gao Gong finally confirmed that the boss of this Memory Store was a high-level virtual virus.
'No wonder checking the IP was so accurate.'
'But since you dare to get online, naturally, you aren't afraid of being caught.'
With a thought, the ground beneath Gao Gong was covered in garbled code.
'User data missing'
'User data missing'
'User data missing'
In the next moment, Gao Gong's entire person fell into the ground and disappeared.
