"Their growth is the tribe's developnt."
Zhou Yi looked at the chanical creatures in the distance and said, "I believe the new generation of Hooked Horned Bulls, as long as you seriously care for and maintain them, should feel confident that they will not despise you. The biggest characteristic of chanical life is that they are reasonable and logical, making decisions based on the information they know."
"The tribe treats them very well!"
Niu Zhen emphasized, "We really treat them as mbers of the tribe, it's just that our abilities are too weak to help them much."
Zhou Yi looked at the Bone-man Tribe Chief: "Then believe in yourselves, the process determines the outco."
Niu Zhen lowered his head and said, "I understand your point. Actually, when 703 ca to find , I knew the result was already determined, just like when it's destined to rain, and wind must sweep across the land... I just wanted to delay for a while, everyone in the tribe is actually afraid of change."
"We all need to accept and learn to change."
Zhou Yi said softly, then looked to the silent 703 beside him: "Let's start with this year's two newborn Hooked Horned Bulls. Their data is the least, and they also carry the least burden."
Thus, Niu Zhen, with a robot dog, found those two new bulls.
After being busy for half a day.
"Chairman, the repair program is completed, they are both very healthy, their program architecture is even tighter than expected, and I have also transmitted the most basic company information data to them."
703 reported: "They have fully replicated the core program of the previous generation, so their origins are also very clear."
"The Hooked Horned Bull is a military machine, code-nad 'Off-road No.1', with the ability to self-replicate. Its biggest advantage is its strong adaptability to different terrains, large carrying capacity, and ability to pass through almost any complex terrain, especially suitable for mountainous and plateau-heavy transport. The downside is slow movent speed."
"Its capabilities are [Replication] and [Modification]."
"[Replication] is assembling its own program with corresponding materials to copy itself as a substitute."
"[Modification] allows installing various weapon modules, and further modifying their modes of movent. For instance, installing wheels can switch to vehicular movent, adding more legs for better stability, or fitting a boat base for water navigation. It has very high plasticity."
"They can carry 1.5 tons of weight. So even with extensive modifications, they can withstand external armor and heavy equipnt without affecting their speed."
Zhou Yi examined the two quadruped chanical lives.
They are actually military units.
The two Hooked Horned Bulls simply paced slowly, scanning the environnt left to right.
However, they maintained a back-to-back posture with each other, indeed showing a bit of a combat stance.
"Hello."
Zhou Yi went over and greeted proactively: "How do you feel?"
One of the bulls said, "Not bad."
The other said, "Pretty good."
"What are your nas?"
The two chanical lives introduced themselves as "Bull 197" and "Bull 198," which are also their nas within the tribe.
"What are your thoughts about the future?"
They looked at each other.
Bull 197 said, "No particular thoughts. Life in the tribe is good, everyone takes good care of us. I like it here."
"I feel the sa."
The nervous Bone-man Tribe Chief instantly relaxed.
Zhou Yi then said, "Since you have the capability for modifications, how about trying to modify into vehicular form? At least this way you can run on the overpass without expending energy."
Both bulls thought it was feasible.
A few days later, they were fitted with four wheels and embarked on a taxi life on the overpass.
Unlike other vehicles, they could also switch to a quadruped form. After leaving the highway surface, they could travel on rugged mountain roads to deliver riders to their doorsteps.
As for taxi work, 197 and 198 quickly beca proficient.
Tribe Chief Niu Zhen ca running over with good news: "Chairman, besides working, they also teach us how to better maintain and repair, how to quickly spot abnormalities in other Hooked Horned Bulls, and even taught us simpler and more effective replication thods."
"They don't despise us and even want to help the tribe earn money and grow stronger!"
The Bone Man's voice was sowhat stuttering with excitent: "Under their optimization, replication can be completed in just a month!"
There is one problem though.
"Both of them are unwilling to replicate, as it would take up their ti and energy... According to their internal programs, it is necessary for them to initiate a replication process if they have significant damage, the purpose is to create backups and continue fighting."
Zhou Yi couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Even chanical lives are reluctant to have children.
Those in a semi-civilized state, on the other hand, tend to have high fertility rates.
A surprising discovery was also made by 703.
"Chairman, so of the semi-civilized subjects refuse to use the Ti Anchor to repair into chanical lives!"
He reported sowhat gravely, "I previously tested 12 Hooked Horned Bulls, and only one used the Ti Anchor програм, now in recovery."
"We always thought that semi-civilized bodies were all eager to beco more advanced chanical lives, never expected that not all of them were so willing."
Zhou Yi puzzled, "Why?"
"Because semi-civilized bodies have very low processing needs, only maintaining basic program operations suffices, and they can remain mostly immobile. But entering into chanical life significantly increases the calculation needs, plus corresponding updates, upgrades, and maintenance, making survival quite troubleso."
"The previous 11 chose to refuse the Ti Anchor програм, they don't want to change, not willing to take on new burdens."
"It's truly a startling discovery! Now I even suspect that not all semi-civilized conditions are caused by Radiation effect, but rather so chanical lives naturally select this state under environntal pressures to significantly reduce consumption and thus survive longer, or should I say, have stronger survival abilities!"
703 said excitedly.
This was the first ti Zhou Yi had heard about this.
He thought for a mont: "Then let's respect their choices."
"Yes, Chairman, the new generation has a stronger desire for change, they have heavier curiosity, I'll pay special attention to the new generation of bulls."
Eventually, only 4 bulls in the herd signed the agreent and activated the Ti Anchor, becoming chanical lives.
Adding the previous 197 and 198, totaling 6.
Their personalities differed, so were hot-tempered, so slow, so very curious.
One bull left the tribe, crossed the Dead Sea, and its whereabouts are unknown.
Another chose to live alone in the wild Northern Forest, becoming a unique landscape.
So now, there are actually only 4 chanical bulls in the company.
This series of changes also allowed the Tad Bull Tribe to accept the transformation of the bulls, thereby entering a new bull-raising life.
While Zhou Yi was focusing on this group of chanical lives, Bone Man Wu Yi ca looking for him.
"Chairman, I'm ready! Ready to go find that woman in the ice."
Zhou Yi said, "Good, then let's set off now."
