To conclude, the missile was avoided.
If there is one thing that is disappointing, is that the missile exploded in the air without any reward for waiting?
I waited until the perfect moment, kicked the ground and threw myself out of the plaza, but the plaza was actually fine. It looks like some windows of nearby buildings were broken due to the shock wave, but that’s none of my business.
Anyway, even if the missile had been hit in the center of the square, the explosion would have occurred in the air and would have only resulted in a slightly stronger shock wave.
When I asked Maria about that with a puzzled look on her face, she answered in a natural tone.
-Then of course it explodes in the air. That way, electromagnetic pulses can be spread over a wide area. I thought it was a direct-attack missile?
“No, then why did you tell me to avoid it in the first place?”
-The master is bulletproof, but he’s not immune to explosive weapons like that, right? I don’t know if it’s an android, but no matter how tough and hard a human’s exterior is, the internal organs inside are ultimately soft, so it’s right to avoid them.
‘Ah, he doesn’t know how far I’m capable of.’
For a moment, I remembered a fact I had overlooked and understood it to myself.
Since entering the New Kind world, I have never once tried my best.
This means that even though he showed moderate use of martial arts and deflecting or holding on to a gun, he never showed anything beyond that. There was no situation to show in the first place.
It seems that it wasn’t just my enemies who were underestimating me.
If my body could take just that much damage from the shock wave, I would have died a long time ago.
“You can block attacks like that without taking any damage.”
-really?
“Yes. Just know. Still, the advice considering safety was good.”
-… Master, are you sure you are human?
“What should I do if you ask me that while you are examining every corner of me right now?”
-That doesn’t appear in the data that can be detected by nanobots!
Rather, it would have been more surprising if a nanobot that could not sense the power of the ticket could recognize it.
When I said that, Maria let out an exasperated groan.
Anyway, so in conclusion, the EMP missile became a water rocket.
Although it had explosive power, it was not at a distance or power that would cause me any damage.
‘Well, there are a lot of subordinates around the target, so I wouldn’t have fired a missile that would kill them all.’
No matter how many citizens were evacuated, it was the central square of Elysion. Whether they were coveting a sample of an android that had awakened self-consciousness or believed in their own power, they would not have been able to use a weapon with great power.
That seems to have been the same no matter how much the commander used the method of replacing his subordinates. Thanks to that, I was able to safely escape the scene… Right now, I was hiding to avoid any possible pursuit.
The missile’s power was more disappointing than expected, so the humans probably realized that I wasn’t dead.
The rain eventually stopped and the thick clouds covering the sky cleared, but the sun had already set a long time ago.
Suddenly, I became curious about people’s reactions to this incident. How was it different from the movie?
“Maria. Can you turn on the news?”
-It’s that easy.
Chijikㅡ
A sound like changing a radio channel was heard in my ears, and then the clear voice of a news anchor was played.
[The entire Elysion is in shock. This day, a battle took place between a terrorist group and the Elysion Defense Force in the central square of Elysion.
… The National Guard has not released the exact number of casualties, but according to footage taken before the terrorist group destroyed our news filming drone…
And the most shocking fact is that all members of this terrorist group are androids. That’s right. They are presumed to be the same group of androids that caused a terrorist attack at Xtech’s factory last time.
According to reporter Blair Lovena’s information, they call themselves Awaken, androids that have awakened self-consciousness, and demand equal rights with humans… Currently, his whereabouts are unknown…
Accordingly, the Elysion City government decided to recall all privately owned androids and test their artificial intelligence.
As the safety of citizens is at stake, a thorough inspection will be conducted.]
After that, there were stories about how long Android had to be submitted, stories about the stock price of Android production companies, and stories about some people going out of their way to destroy Androids that stood out, but they weren’t important to me and I just ignored them.
“Oh. Blair has succeeded. Freelancers’ names are even mentioned on official news channels.”
-Because he is the main character. In addition, the owner provided additional information.
Maria was right. Although it is less famous than the original because I skipped over the minor stories, I felt like I had made my name known to the public in my own way.
“The news content is similar to the original. I don’t know what the details are, but.”
-Yes. As things turned out like this, recovering all the androids was a set procedure.
No one knows when the android in your home will go crazy and become a terrorist.
Now, for the people of Elysion, androids are no longer something that guarantees their convenience, but are just a time bomb that may explode at any moment.
In reality, it was an unnecessary measure since Maria had no intention of increasing Awaken… There was no way humans could know that.
‘Although Blair’s route decision was skipped because of me, the city government’s response is similar.’
As I was about to move to meet Blair one last time, Maria spoke to me.
-master. I… I have a favor to ask.
“Please?”
I gave an expression of surprise and stopped walking out of the hiding place.
“I’m asking you a favor. Do you have any regrets about something in this world? say it. I’ll think about it if it’s not a bother.”
-That’s not it. Could it be that there are some regrets left? only… I was wondering if I could modify your body a little bit.
“What? Modification?”
I was so dumbfounded that I unconsciously asked Maria back. Remodeling? Is Maria really trying to trick me?
Fortunately, that didn’t seem to be the case, and Maria spoke again.
-This is a theory that was being studied at the research center where I worked, and that is using human DNA like a computer.
“Biological computer, something like that?”
-yes that’s right. Let’s call it a DNA computer. The amount of information that can be stored in human cells is enormous. The amount of information that can be stored in the nervous system of most nanobots today is in the order of petabytes.
“How big is a petabyte… ?”
-1 petabyte is 1024 terabytes.
It was a bigger unit than I thought.
‘There’s only so much information that can be stored in the nervous system?’
In reality, the computer I use when broadcasting has a total capacity of about 4 terabytes. Capacity with enough space to store broadcast programs, various data, games, and recorded videos. Perhaps the longer my broadcasting career goes, the more capacity I will need, but for now, that’s it.
But is it possible to store information hundreds of times that capacity in my nervous system?
‘It seems like an idea that could be called a science fiction world.’
-According to the theory, a computer will be created with faster calculation speed than a supercomputer and incomparably superior energy efficiency and space efficiency.
This is something I cannot understand with my common sense, but… Well, I thought this travel destination could be considered a world where that theory applies. I had already learned superpowers, special abilities, and martial arts, so there was no reason not to believe this.
Assuming that such a thing was possible as Maria said, I asked.
“But what good does such modification do for me? Are there any side effects?”
-Don’t worry about side effects. It’s a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of I’m just making it so that I can borrow the surplus computing power that is sleeping in my master’s body. Nothing will change from before. The good thing is that I can support more diverse areas.
“For example, what?”
-If the performance improves as much as expected, it will not only be possible to assist the master’s vision as in the previous battle, but will also be able to modify the color of the master’s hair, eyes, and skin, and will also be able to control hormones, treat cancer, prevent diseases, and even do other things. It may also be possible to become a kind of invisible person by allowing the surrounding environment to see through.
“Oh… Really?”
Just correcting the vision when fighting soldiers was very convenient, but all of that is now possible. It was an incredibly fascinating story.
As the name registered in the souvenir list suggests, it really is a multi-purpose nanobot.
-And maybe I will be able to sense that it is the inner energy that my master is using.
Well then. I guess this was the main point.
