"If you want to obtain the clue," he considered, "it is highly likely that the lab hired by the Descent Faction is conducting the research."
The direction of the investigation circled back to the Descent Faction.
Due to his experiences in a previous life, Lu Heng knew that there were issues with the Descent Faction itself, he was just not certain whether the incident on Gaseous Street had been their doing.
Lu Heng pondered for a mont and asked one last question, "There is one more thing, the chanical Angel in the black battle armor that day, can I et her?"
Ze Wei'er Matrix was silent for two seconds before replying, "I'm sorry, that won't be possible."
Lu Heng frowned and pressed, "Why not?"
Ze Wei'er Matrix paused before answering, "She's the Black Feather Spirit, and she has her own mind."
Lu Heng grew more puzzled. "Do you an she refuses to et ?"
Ze Wei'er Matrix remained silent, which ant he was conceding that point.
Lu Heng then asked, "Can I at least know her current status? Is the damage severe?"
"There's no need to worry about that, the repairs have been completed," Ze Wei'er Matrix answered calmly.
However, his calm deanor left Lu Heng uncertain whether it was a psychological reaction or just a characteristic state of a chanical entity.
Lu Heng grew more puzzled, for the call for help he had heard from Black Feather Spirit sounded very much like Yuan Yaoyao's voice.
When he first heard it, Lu Heng's initial reaction was that she was calling for help.
But if it was Yuan Yaoyao, why wouldn't she want to see him?
Was Ze Wei'er Matrix hiding sothing?
Moreover, if Black Feather Spirit was a chanical Angel, was it really Yuan Yaoyao?
Black Feather Spirit was a chanical Angel that had erged in his previous life and was one of the strongest angels Ze Wei'er Matrix had created.
Was the Black Feather Spirit of his past life the sa entity as the current one?
This question couldn't be answered.
Because chanical Angels, warships, spacecraft, and robots might inherit their nas and serial numbers.
When a warship retired, a newly commissioned ship could use the old ship's na and serial number.
Robots had similar naming rules.
chanical Angels could inherit nas and identifiers as well.
If this current Black Feather Spirit really was Yuan Yaoyao, did it an she had been transford into a chanical Angel?
Given Ze Wei'er Matrix's reputation as a "mad scientist," such a possibility existed.
Moreover, Yuan Yaoyao's Initial Talents were "tal Ion Reduction" and "chanical Heart."
Ethics aside, both her talents were suited for a chanical enhancent path.
Beyond that,
another piece of information made Lu Heng suspicious.
The current Black Feather Spirit possessed the ability to repair its tal shell.
This repairing capability could be achieved by the "Fluid tal" Skill, coupled with control programs in a computing core.
In the past life, Lu Heng had never seen Black Feather Spirit use such a repair ability.
If the past Black Feather Spirit lacked this repairing ability, and the current one possessed it, then the "Fluid tal" Skill could be the answer to his doubt.
After pondering for a long ti, Lu Heng asked again, "Are you certain I cannot et the Black Feather Spirit?"
Ze Wei'er Matrix candidly said, "As I told you, Black Feather Spirit has its own independent thoughts, and I won't restrict any of her actions."
Lu Heng's expression darkened as he asked one final question, "Is the essence of Black Feather Spirit human?"
This question was crucial and could resolve all ambiguities.
Ze Wei'er Matrix fell silent before replying, "Yes."
Hearing this response, Lu Heng's gaze hardened.
If Black Feather Spirit truly was Yuan Yaoyao,
then in this strange world, without her father by her side,
and her father was Lu Heng's Quenching Assistant.
In this situation, Lu Heng could be considered her half guardian, so he couldn't just ignore the matter, even if it ant causing a confrontation.
Lu Heng slamd the table and rebuked, "So you transford her into a robot!"
Ze Wei'er Matrix sensed the anger emanating from Lu Heng and asked, "Your emotions surged abruptly."
"Yes! If you don't give a satisfactory answer, I might even kill you!" Lu Heng didn't hide the murderous intent in his eyes.
"Because of Black Feather Spirit?"
"What else? In this world, I can be considered her half guardian. For chanical Civilization, you don't understand what a guardian ans, do you?" Lu Heng challenged.
"I understand what a guardian ans, but I can't understand the reason for your anger," Ze Wei'er Matrix expressed candidly.
Lu Heng took a deep breath and said, "You forced her to undergo chanical Transformation?"
"There was no coercion. Moreover, I calculated the reason for your possible anger. Are you concerned about the extent of Black Feather Spirit's chanical Transformation?"
Lu Heng raised an eyebrow, realizing that the machine's thinking was indeed peculiar, but it had ntioned a key phrase, "extent of chanical Transformation."
"What do you an by the extent of chanical Transformation? How extensive is Black Feather Spirit's chanical Transformation?"
After understanding the reason for Lu Heng's anger, Ze Wei'er Matrix began to explain efficiently:
"Now that I understand why you are angry, I need to explain that in Sikes Civilization, there is no concept of the extent of chanical Transformation.
"For , chanical Transformation and using tools are the sa; both aim to improve individual operational efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and add capabilities.
"To a living being, whether it's holding a laser weapon, installing a laser weapon under the skin, or replacing an arm with a chanical arm equipped with a laser weapon, essentially, there are no differences, they are all using tools.
"In the early stages of the chanical Revolution in Sikes Civilization, chanical Transformations were conducted because the efficiency of individual bodies was significantly lower than that of chanical limbs.
"Because of the significant increase in operational efficiency, chanical Transformation beca popular.
"When changing a chanical eyeball becos as simple as changing glasses, there's no longer any ideological burden about whether to undergo chanical Transformation.
"Do you understand now? It's like if I were to change Black Feather Spirit's glasses, you certainly wouldn't get angry about it."
Although Lu Heng could understand, the human mindset couldn't easily accept chanical Transformation, so he continued sternly, "Understanding it is useless from my position, you have no right to perform chanical Transformation on her."
Ze Wei'er Matrix, realizing the explanation wasn't getting through, quickly calculated and then said, "Well, communication is indeed difficult. In that case, you can directly communicate with Black Feather Spirit if she is willing."
As he finished speaking, a holographic screen appeared in front of them.
The screen flickered a few tis, displaying the image of Black Feather Spirit.
"Yuan Yaoyao!" Lu Heng's voice was stern.
Black Feather Spirit was still clad in black battle armor, with two chanical antennae moving on her head, but she didn't respond.
"I will tell your father about this," Lu Heng's tone grew even more severe.
"Don't tell! I don't want him to know," Black Feather Spirit finally spoke, her voice indeed that of Yuan Yaoyao.
Su Muyu and Lin Zeyu had been listening nearby, initially not understanding what Lu Heng and Ze Wei'er Matrix were arguing about.
But as soon as they heard Black Feather Spirit speak, they were both stunned.
Black Feather Spirit continued, "The professor didn't force to undergo chanical Transformation; I agreed to it. I really like my current battle armor. Don't you think I am powerful now?
"After returning, I took exams at school, and scored full marks in every subject, especially in computation problems; they were too simple."
Hearing her voice, Lu Heng's concerns lessened slightly.
Judging from the tone of her speech, at least her thinking was normal and very much in line with her original self.
Lu Heng took a deep breath and said, "Co out, before I lose my temper."
Black Feather Spirit fell silent for a while, then turned off the holographic screen communication.
After a while, she flew in from outside, standing in front of Lu Heng.
Lu Heng quickly thought through his options, unsure of how to handle the situation now.
In fact, when she was first summoned, after returning, Lu Heng had felt that her expression seed a bit sluggish.
He hadn't thought much of it at the ti, but now he realized she might have already undergone transformation then.
However, at that ti, there were no signs of chanical Transformation on her exterior.
Lu Heng asked, "What was transford? Did you undergo transformation the first ti you returned?"
Black Feather Spirit nodded, "Transford."
Pointing to the back of her head, she said, "A Light Computer Chip was implanted, which helps calculate and also connects to the network to search for information. Now, I score one hundred percent on every exam."
