After the second jump, Lily lay on Wang Chao's shoulder and looked out of the cockpit.
Wang Chao put the image of the space station captured by the spacecraft's optical telescope on the home screen: "Are you looking for this?"
"That's right! So this can't be seen with the naked eye?"
Wang Chao: "The distance in the universe is very far, so just get used to it. We are now 10,000 kilometers away from this space station. Although the space station itself is very large, it is really too far."
"It's so far away..." Lily gasped, "Wouldn't it take us a long time to fly there?"
Wang Chao looked at the relative speeds of the spacecraft and the space station: "No, it will be there in 47 minutes if we don't slow down, but we still have to slow down."
His manned computer has calculated the best rendezvous orbit and calculated the final rendezvous time based on the rendezvous orbit: one hour, 27 minutes and 53 seconds.
Wang Chao displayed the rendezvous countdown in the upper right corner of the space station screen.
At this time, the computer prompted that it received a communication from the space station port dispatch.
Wang Chao cast the communication on the secondary screen. He doesn't need to communicate in this way. The prosthetic person can just exchange data directly, but this can give Lily a sense of participation.
After the communication was connected, the person on the other end was a little confused: "Huh? Is it actually a video communication? I thought that the data link would be exchanged and it would be over, Mr. Wang."
Wang Chao pointed to Lily next to him: "The main thing is that we have guests on board so that she can feel a little involved."
The port dispatcher smiled and said, "We have another guest. This time we are taking a ride? Oh, this appearance also uses the appearance data of the Galaxy singer Lily."
No, this is the Galactic Diva herself.
Lily smiled proudly for some reason.
Wang Chao: "This lady with the appearance of Lily, uh, her registered name is Annie."
"Understood, hello Miss Anne." The dispatcher lowered his head and began to enter the file.
In this era of prosthetics, faces can be changed at will. To confirm the true identity, one needs to scan the soul through a technology called "soul portrait".
Of course, DNA scanning is also possible, but now many highly prosthetic people don’t have much DNA left, and what’s left is tightly protected in an iron shell. It’s quite troublesome to detect DNA. .
The soul is simple. As long as the relevant permissions are opened, you can check it by plugging in a wire.
The only problem is that this soul portrait technology can also be used to identify different AIs. In this era, the difference between human souls and AIs that rely on self-learning is already very small.
The use of AI is nominally prohibited in New Eden's sphere of influence. However, in this era when the ruling power is greatly weakened outside the main galaxy, the New Eden authorities cannot control some AIs retained by the private sector.
After the arrival dispatcher completed the data entry, he said to Wang Chao: "Docking at Gate L5, our optical system has observed obvious external damage to your spacecraft. Does it need repair service?"
Wang Chao: “It’s not needed yet.”
"Do you need us to inform anyone that you are here?"
Wang Chao: "No, the person I'm looking for probably knows by now that we're about to dock."
Lily blinked: "Is he a master of all things here? 'There are police and laws to protect you, you don't need friends like me, you don't even want to call me godfather!'"
Lili imitated Marlon Brando's voice quite similar, so Wang Chao asked in surprise: "Have you seen "The Godfather"?"
"What is that?" The girl looked confused.
Wang Chao was also confused: "What you just said, those are Godfather's lines!"
Lily: "That's the line from the gang leader who played opposite you in "Galaxy Dead 4"!"
Got it, there are "Godfather" fans on the cast of Galaxy Dead.
At this time, the dispatcher on the other side of the communication coughed: "You two, we can hear it here too. Also, this Miss Anne, your voice really looks like Miss Lily. The prompt here says that the voiceprint is 100% similar! You must A lot of money was spent adjusting your vocal chords.”
Because it's me.
Lily didn't know anything about prosthetics, and her learning ability was relatively low compared to that of natural people. After all, there was no human computer.
In order to prevent her from revealing her secret, Wang Chao changed the subject: "Is there any update on the reward information?"
"Yes, I will send it to you right away. If there is nothing else, I will cut off the communication. There are other ships waiting for me to dispatch."
Wang Chao nodded, cut off the communication directly, and then checked the reward information sent by the dispatcher through the ship's network.
Good, no me and no Lily. Sure enough, the reward hasn't been sent here yet.
Lily was a little worried: "They can tell that my voice is similar in just one communication. Will they see through my disguise when we board the space station?"
Wang Chao: "Don't worry, the space suits of people who do our kind of work have anti-EMP functions. This function will also block the scanning."
"so smart?"
"That's how good you are, professional, right?"
"Very professional." Lily said and patted Wang Chao on the shoulder.
Wang Chao continued: "Remember when you go to the space station, don't take off your respirator. Most of the space station are mercenaries, and there are very few natural people. The artificial lung function of the prosthetic people is strong, so the air circulation system on the space station The adjustment was also very sloppy.”
"Then the fact that I have been wearing a respirator means that I am a natural person?" Lily interrupted Wang Chao.
Wang Chao: "Yes, but it's better than falling down due to poisoning. Also, don't take off the eyepieces. That can block the optical detection of your eyes and prevent the model of your prosthetic eyes from being identified by scanning your eyes."
"I don't have prosthetic eyes."
"Yes, so you must not take off the goggles. There is no prosthetic person without prosthetic eyes. Without prosthetic eyes, there will be no visual interface, which is very troublesome."
The prosthetic interface in Wang Chao's field of vision was added to the visual image obtained by the prosthetic eye.
Of course, Wang Chao knew all of this through the memory of bounty hunter Wang Chao.
Lily listened to Wang Chao's words seriously and nodded repeatedly, as nervous as a little girl listening to the teacher's instructions for outing precautions.
Wang Chao: "Moreover, you must wear this camouflage neck ring. This is what I use when I am on a delivery mission. It can automatically hack the camera that is filming you and mosaic your entire face."
"So powerful?" Lily took the necklace, "Automatically?"
Wang Chao nodded: "Yes, this is the masterpiece of the old friend we are going to visit soon."
Lily looked at the neck ring with admiration: "Is she a very good craftsman?"
Wang Chao laughed: "What are you thinking? This neck ring can be printed with an ordinary three-level printer. The key is the hacker program inside. My friend is a very powerful hacker."
While he said this, the manned computer very considerately displayed all the hacker's information at the edge of the field of view, and also very thoughtfully turned on translucency.
Wang Chao couldn't help but frown. When he was thinking about who he could rely on, his mind only thought of this person's performance and ability. He glanced at the gender item and found that the information said "armed helicopter", so he ignored it.
The gender of those who can write such nonsense is probably an otaku, he identified it so arbitrarily.
However, when he saw the photo now, Wang Chao was stunned. Isn't this a super cute little girl?
He looked at this guy's prosthetic conversion rate again, and it was 97%.
Wang Chao's prosthetic transformation rate is only 87%, mainly because he has maintained a complete reproductive system. This 13% is almost the amount necessary to ensure the normal function of the reproductive system.
This girl—let’s call her a girl for now. This girl is only 3% human. Maybe it’s okay to say that her gender is an “armed helicopter.”
At this time, Lily patted Wang Chao on the shoulder: "What are you doing? You stopped talking all of a sudden?"
Wang Chao: "It's okay. I just looked at the photo of that old friend and was a little shocked."
Lily: "Why? I want to see it too!"
Wang Chao put the "girl"'s photo on the secondary screen.
"Hey," Lily exclaimed, "is she your concubine?"
No, why do you think so directly?
But then Wang Chao thought about it and realized that the original bounty hunter Wang Chao was really such a scumbag with a lot of concubines.
But this is indeed not his mistress, maybe because there is no place to start.
Lily squinted at the text on the screen: "Her name is...Nimiao? What a cute name! Her gender is...armed helicopter?"
Wang Chao: "Her prosthetic transformation rate is 97%, she is completely mechanical."
Lily was stunned: "So cool!"
So cool?
Lily said with envy: "She must not have to suffer from menstrual cramps!"
Wang Chao: "Is this why you want to transform into a prosthetic body?"
Lily: "Yes, menstrual cramps are so hard!"
Wang Chao was silent. After a long time, he said: "I don't have the money to install a prosthetic body for you now. Let's wait until we escape New Eden's sphere of influence."
"Okay!" Lily replied energetically.
**
One hour, 27 minutes and 53 seconds later, Wang Chao's spacecraft accurately docked with the L5 hatch.
The docked spacecraft on the L6 hatch next to it has only a handbrake left, and countless engineering robots are printing and repairing it around it.
Lily lay on the porthole of the cab and looked at the spacecraft: "Can we still fly back like this?"
Wang Chao used the manned computer to evaluate the status of the ship and replied: "Actually, the power system is still intact. As long as the power and engine of the spaceship are intact, it can still fly even if the other parts are broken.
"It's just that the person may have died. It's probably the artificial intelligence of the spacecraft that drove the ship back."
In this era, there are indeed humans who have become 100% prosthetic and have achieved mechanical ascension. They have named themselves the robot race, but they do not live within the sphere of influence of New Eden.
Except for the robot race, no one can survive after the spacecraft is damaged like this.
Even the 97% prosthetic Meng Niang whom I just called Nimiao needs a life support system.
Lily looked at the spaceship next to her in confusion: "It's so miserable. Did we almost end up like this?"
Wang Chao patted her shoulder: "But we are still alive and well. And we are also planning to give the company a surprise. Okay, don't look at it, we have to get off the spaceship quickly to do errands. The sooner we finish our errands and leave the space station, the safer we will be. "
"Yeah." Lily nodded, then put on the camouflage neck ring and shielding glasses that Wang Chao just emphasized, "Let's go quickly!"
At this time, Wang Chao received a communication, which was a short message.
"Don't take the passage, open the outer hatch of the spacecraft and walk from space."
Along with the information, there was also a structural diagram of the space station's space port, with a route marked with a red line.
There is a cat paw mark in the corner of the structural diagram.
Wang Chao grabbed Lily who was about to leave: "Wait a minute! The situation has changed. Damn, we were so happy just now."
