Chapter 157: Are These Things Made Of Cells?
Angelo was not that disappointed.
Because he hadn’t put his heart and soul into this project.
He had also seen too many failures.
He had met scientist after scientist, each claiming that “this would work.”
And in the end, they had all failed.
Many scientists had suffered mental breakdowns from the shock.
Among them, there was one person that Angelo couldn’t bear to part with – Kanesha.
The moment that genius girl appeared, Angelo had had high hopes for her.
However, even her mind couldn’t take the strain of working for Area 53. She lost her sanity like many others before her.
This had been devastating for Angelo.
Patrick had not broken down. Angelo was pleased to have not lost another researcher.
Nelson had changed his opinions.
Maybe his project didn’t need Raymond so much.
Raymond had spent a billion dollars on this experiment. His team would not be as generous, especially after this.
Just when everyone thought that Raymond had failed.
Raymond was already staring at the probe.
A researcher dragged his feet to him.
“It’s okay. It’s just one failure, we’re used to it!”
As the researcher spoke, he wanted to pat Raymond’s back to comfort him.
“What failure?”
When Raymond said that, the progress bar reached 100%.
“Gulp! Gulp!”
The neural brain that was originally motionless suddenly moved.
It moved like an aquatic sea creature.
The nutrient fluid was absorbed and then spat out.
It was very similar to the breathing of a human!
“What?”
“How is that possible?”
“He did it!”
Patrick roared, “Ahhhhh! Finally… he finally succeeded!”
Camilla cried out, “I knew It! Hahaha, Raymond could do it!”
Angelo nodded approvingly as he said, “As expected!”
Nelson cheered like a teenager. “Yes, Yes, yes! Haha!”
It had only twitched once, but everyone knew that Raymond had succeeded.
The problem that had plagued them for the longest of times had finally been solved by Raymond.
The most excited one was naturally Patrick.
From the disappointment just now to the excitement now.
The rapid change in mood made him feel a little dizzy.
“Hey, hey, professor… What’s wrong?”
Patrick was on the verge of collapse when an intern caught him.
“No… nothing… nothing! I’m just happy!”
Patrick, who had returned to normal, immediately put on a protective suit.
He wanted to take a closer look at the brain.
Behind him, Camilla and Angelo also donned protective suits.
The protective suit was not only for their protection, but also for their delicate apparatus.
After two rounds of sterilization, the three of them walked into the laboratory.
“Thunder God, thank you so much!”
Patrick thanked Raymond and immediately walked towards the pulsating brain.
Patrick felt like he was looking at a priceless artwork.
He couldn’t even bear to blink his eyes.
A few minutes later, he left the laboratory and found Raymond who was drinking coke in the observation room.
“Raymond, could you tell me how you did it?”
Raymond took another sip of coke. “I’ll tell you when you’ve paid up!”
“We will definitely keep our promise, you…”
Without waiting for Patrick to finish, Raymond interrupted him.
“I have other things to do. I don’t wish to waste any more time here!”
“Okay!”
Patrick had to demand for a ‘rush order’ of the brains.
Soon, the three neural brains were ready.
Raymond handed the three neural brains to the robot behind him.
Then he said, “Because I injected a consciousness into it!”
Raymond said and left.
Nelson immediately rushed after Raymond.
“Consciousness?”
“Was it that hard drive?”
Patrick thought of the key.
Then, he immediately ran into the laboratory.
There was a solid-state hard drive in the probe device.
Patrick was very excited when he saw the solid-state hard drive.
That was the key!
And…
“Quick, quick! Connect the microphone to the loudspeaker. Our new members probably can’t wait any longer!”
Angelo and Camilla saw Patrick’s series of actions.
At that moment, they were also waiting for the result.
As soon as the microphone and loudspeaker were connected, a gentle male voice immediately sounded.
“Hello! Can you let me see this world?”
Upon hearing this voice, Patrick immediately said, “Quick, turn the camera on!”
..
Raymond followed Nelson and left.
However, he didn’t leave completely.
“Number two” was a copy of Tuesday. He was born with a mission.
As for the solid-state hard drive…
It was useless.
Consciousness could only awaken once.
If spun up a second time, it was already a pile of data.
Even Tuesday would not be able to awaken a second intelligence from the same code.
When Patrick’s experiment was almost done, Angelo remembered the purpose of his trip.
“Oh no!”
Camilla said, “Minister, What’s Wrong?”
“Quick, quick, quick! Take me to Raymond!”
“Did you run into an emergency?”
“Just do as you’re told. Why are you wasting time!”
“Oh!”
Camilla walked to the front. Nelson’s laboratory was at the other end of the second research institute.
If Camilla hadn’t led the way, Angelo wouldn’t have been able to find him.
When Angelo found Raymond…
Raymond had entered the laboratory.
When he saw Raymond, Angelo heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as Raymond wasn’t on the ground, he would still be safe.
It wouldn’t be too late to tell him the situation after Raymond had made some contributions.
At this moment!
Raymond, who was in the laboratory, looked at the weapon in front of him and fell into deep thought.
This weapon was very different from the weapons on Earth.
It looked vastly different.
This thing could be as big as an RPG, but it didn’t have a grip.
It also didn’t have a trigger.
It was just an oval cylinder.
It was about 1.5 meters long.
It was about as thick as a wrist.
Secondly, there was a difference in the material.
This thing didn’t look like it was made of metal.
Although he had a glove on, Raymond was still very sure that this thing was made of living cells.
“Nelson, is this thing completely biological?”
Raymond turned to look at Nelson.
“That’s right, this is the No. 133 energy cannon. Its entire body is made of cells.”
Nelson raised his head slightly, and then immediately returned to normal.
“How does it get nutrition?”
Raymond immediately pointed out a key problem.
“This thing also needs our nutrient solution, but it doesn’t consume as much. It needs to consume about 100 milliliters a month.”
“Then how does this weapon fire?”
Energy cannons had to act like cannons.
Even aliens had to follow the rules of energy conservation.
“Look here.” Nelson pointed at the two grooves in the middle of the stick. “This is basically the charging port!”
