Chapter 526: Chapter 469: Silver Wing

Man, what kind of canned food are you talking about?

Li Cheng, unsurprisingly, rubbed his temples. This [Summoning Skill: Farmer] skill scroll almost flawlessly replicates every concept used in creating [Summoning Skill: Manor Guard].

It comes from old London’s plantation under the Union Jack, slavery, cotton…

The difference lies in the addition of higher-quality concepts, such as the African-American man George Floyd, who sparked the BLM movement across the United States in 2020, and the white police officer Derek Chauvin who kneeled on his neck.

Concepts of racial discrimination and skin color were extracted from the personal items of these two individuals.

The event had widespread repercussions, sparking a zero-dollar purchase frenzy throughout the United States, profoundly affecting the US presidential election, to the extent that even unknown entities in Taiwan held “Black Lives Matter” events.

Ironically, the catalyst, black man Floyd, was not a good citizen. He had been arrested four times for selling illegal drugs, stealing firearms, and had once illegally invaded and committed armed robbery, pointing a gun at a pregnant woman’s belly, becoming a frequent visitor to prison.

Meanwhile, his family, including distant relatives, opened donation accounts during the BLM movement, raking in City Council’s $27 million in damages and tens of millions in donations.

The transfer fee amounted to a breath-taking 100 million US Dollars, truly making “Black Lives Matter”.

Li Cheng clicked to learn the scroll and looked at the second item.

It was a W-shaped golden metal filament, sturdy yet flexible, and upon close examination under the light, one could see its edges contained densely packed, nearly imperceptible optical fibers.

[Item Name: Silver Wing Light Path]

[Type: Technology Artifact/Wearable]

[Quality: Epic]

[Special Effect: Weapon of Silicon Crystal. Passively effective. When worn by a mechanical lifeform, it provides optimized options based on the data of the mechanical lifeform, along with a tactical operation interface.]

[Consumption: Uses the energy of the mechanical lifeform itself, specifically dependent on the advanced completeness of the mechanical body]

[Cooling Time: None]

[Use Conditions: None]

[Note: The things I have seen, you humans would never believe. I witnessed warships burning in the distance near the constellation of Orion, I saw C-beams glitter in the dark near Tannhäuser Gate, and all these moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.]

“Hmm…”

Li Cheng picked up the Silver Wing Light Path and weighed it; its mass was about 100 grams, hardly heavier than an egg.

“This artifact employs S-Class intelligence, A-level calculus, A-level classical mechanics, derived from 10,000 pages of Newton manuscripts housed in the British Museum, unpublished draft letters to Leibniz, and the original ‘Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy’.”

The Smart Core stated, “Additionally, there is A-level technology, from the Voyager 1 extra-solar system space probe.

A-level chip, from the first silicon integrated circuit in human history.

A-level combat, from the sword of the last warrior of the Inca Empire before its demise.”

Like the [Floating Engine], the [Silver Wing Light Path] also uses 1S, 5A, plus a pile of B-level concepts.

The original manuscript of Newton’s ‘Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy,’ originally housed in institutions such as Cambridge University and the Royal Society, was conveniently sent to the British Museum for preservation and maintenance around the same time.

It just so happened that Gray Rain intercepted it.

Isn’t that unbelievable, you might say.

It’s a bit of a pity that there wasn’t enough time back then; otherwise, if Gray Rain could have picked up more related Holy Relics of Lord Niu, he could have extracted S-class Academic Cliques, A-level Political Struggles, A-level Grudges, D-level Stock Tricks, and C-level Theology concepts.

“When worn by a mechanical lifeform, it provides optimized options and a tactical operation interface… this description isn’t very clear.”

Li Cheng rubbed his chin and, after a moment of contemplation, opened the three-dimensional warehouse and pulled out three items.

The first was the third-generation ASIMO humanoid robot produced by Honda.

The second was the Boston Dynamics robot dog.

The third was a domestically produced YUAniv Universal humanoid robot.

These three items were sequentially fitted with the [Silver Wing Light Path], and Li Cheng used the Information Integration Glasses to observe from the side.

Starting with the Honda ASIMO robot, this gadget truly took the world by surprise when the first generation launched in 2000, being able to walk, turn, eventually navigate stairs, and play soccer.

It was praised by many as a testament to the advanced science of Japan and used to mock China’s ‘Chinese Grand Cannon’ robots.

However… ASIMO essentially had nothing to do with intelligence; every movement, each action, was programmed by Japan’s code deities struggling with reverse kinematics and dynamics, able to operate only in a pre-set environment.

It couldn’t handle the complex factors of an outdoor environment at all and was eventually retired quietly in 2018.

Seemingly advanced Boston Dynamics also couldn’t solve this issue, changing hands between Google, SoftBank, and the Hyundai Group multiple times.

As for the latest generation of robots, the revolutionary breakthrough was primarily due to the emergence of AI deep reinforcement learning algorithms that enabled AI to continually trial and error in virtual spaces, self-writing movement algorithms and pre-set instruction sets, greatly reducing R&D costs and improving iteration efficiency.

“Beep—”

The 130cm tall ASIMO robot slowly stood upright, a [Silver Wing Light Path] antenna-like on its head, starting to walk leisurely per Li Cheng’s command.

The speed increased, evolving from walking to running, from running to jumping, far beyond the original settings by the code deities, nearly reaching the movement limit of the servo motors and joints.

From the perspective of the Information Integration Glasses, ASIMO’s entangled mess of codes was entirely redone, becoming concise and elegant.

The subsequent Boston Dynamics robot dog, YUAniv robot, also experienced significant evolution in their movement patterns after installing the [Silver Wing Light Path].

The higher the joint flexibility, the greater the progress.

“This is somewhat different from [Merciful Soul Implantation], where Merciful Soul imbues a soul, making it seem alive. In contrast, [Silver Wing Light Path] optimizes the mechanical lifeform itself.”

Li Cheng pondered, picking up the [Silver Wing Light Path] and approaching Gray Rain, who was lying on a steel spring bed drinking Coke and playing games, “Try putting this on.”

“What the heck is this, a crown?”

Gray Rain placed the golden metal wire on her head. One second, two seconds, there was no reaction.

“No change?”

Li Cheng scratched his head; this thing was specifically tailored for Gray Rain.

“Change…” Gray Rain thought for a moment, suddenly put on a serious expression, and took a deep breath under Li Cheng’s expectant gaze.

Then… let out a burp with a Coke flavor.

“Burp—”

Gray Rain embarrassedly fanned the air and then suddenly brightened with realization, “Hey, there’s a virtual panel in my vision, telling me I can optimize my structure.”

She got up from the spring bed, blinked like she was clicking confirm.

The next second, her right arm dissolved at high speed, and the original liquid metal right arm reconstructed into a hydraulically structured skeleton, interwoven with tightly bound metal fiber tendons.
