Superstars of Tomorrow

Fang Zhao's house is on the top floor of this building. When he bought this house, half of the top floor was used as a garden. Fang Zhao didn't make any changes after buying it from Xue Jing, but expanded the apron there.

After receiving the message, Fang Zhao went out, and after a short wait, he saw a black spot approaching from a distance. The black dot expanded rapidly. It was a transport drone that descended when it was above the tarmac, but it didn't get too close.

A black metal box was lowered vertically, right on the tarmac.

After Fang Zhao confirmed the delivery, the delivery drone left.

The box is encrypted. Fang Zhao tried to swipe his identity information, and the box opened automatically.

There is also a transparent box made of unknown material inside the metal box, which contains a humanoid machine that looks like a robot.

Fang Zhao wondered, when did he order the robot?

But after seeing the introduction of the item on the transparent box, I understood that this is not a robot, it is the tenth generation game console sent from the headquarters from the flamingo, the main body of the machine is white, with black lines and red flamingo sign.

This is his new game console? I really can't think of going together.

At this moment, Fang Zhao's bracelet reminded that there was a communication waiting to be connected, an unknown number.

After thinking about it, Fang Zhao connected.

"Hello, is this Mr. Fang Zhaofang?" A somewhat rough voice asked over there.

"Yes, I am."

"Hi, I'm Zachli, an engineer from the Yanzhou Branch of Flamingo Company. I'm responsible for the installation and maintenance of the machine. Our side shows that you have confirmed the receipt of the goods. Do you have time today? If so, We will arrive at your residence within 20 minutes to install the machine for you and guide you to use it. If you are busy today, you can make another appointment.”

"I have nothing else to do, I'm at home."

"Well, please wait another twenty minutes, and I will go to your residence with my assistant."

Since an engineer would come to install it, Fang Zhao didn't move the box for the time being and let it continue to lie there.

"Boss, what is this? A housekeeping robot you bought?"

Zuo Yu came over to send Fang Zhao a document that needed to be signed manually, because there was a box on the apron, and there was not much space for him to park, so he parked his car in the public parking lot downstairs before coming up. Seeing the things on the tarmac, he was still puzzled, why did Fang Zhao buy a robot? Do housework? When I saw the logo on the chest of the "robot", I became even more confused. When did the flamingo become a housekeeping robot?

"It's not for housework, it's the Flamingo 10th generation game console." Fang Zhao said.

"The legendary tenth generation? Game console?!" Zuo Yu was surprised, "This is a game console?"

After seeing the information marked on the box, Zuo Yu believed that Fang Zhao was not lying to him.

"Really. The legendary tenth generation looks like this? What did the designer think?"

Although he despised the Flamingo designers, Zuo Yu still circled the box curiously, knowing that the engineer would be coming soon, he was not in a hurry to leave. Originally, he planned to send the document to Fang Zhao for signature and then return to the company, but this document is not particularly urgent, just send it today, he wants to read more here. He wouldn't be so curious if it was just a helmet-mounted and pod-type game console, even the latest model produced by Flamingo, but now this style has pricked his curiosity.

"It should be an exoskeleton type. I never thought that one day I would see an exoskeleton type used in the design of a game console. It's just that the appearance is not majestic enough." Zuo Yu looked at it in amazement, eager to open the box and touch it.

Fang Zhao understood what the "exoskeleton" Zuo Yu was talking about. People are familiar with the protective hard shell on the surface of shrimps, crabs and other animals. Humans also have related projects. fragile body.

Wearable mechanical suits such as powered exoskeletons were actually used before the end of the world. Scientists in the end of the world also started the exoskeleton project, but the technology was still immature, and Fang Zhao had not been able to wear it in combat in his previous life.

After humans started the era of extraterrestrial exploration in the new century, this type of technology has developed rapidly. However, in the past, most of these technologies were used in military and medical applications. The most impressive to the public is the armor-like power suits of the space marines. It is not uncommon to use it in entertainment facilities, but it is rare, and the cost is too high. No company is willing to try it. Unexpectedly, the tenth generation of Flamingo chose the exoskeleton type!

It seems that what Flamingo officials said before was to make changes in the tenth generation, which means that they launched the "exoskeleton" project and have realized it.

"Unfortunately, it's just a game console. It would be great if it was a real powered exoskeleton." Zuo Yu's eyes were full of envy.

"What kind of power suit did you wear?" Fang Zhao asked.

"No. I joined the army very early, and I also studied in the military academy. During military service, I was assigned by the collective. I was transferred to assist in anti-terrorism, but I couldn't go out." Zuo Yu was very regretful.

"Failed to go out" means that he failed to leave the planet. This is Zuo Yu's regret all along. He thought he would continue to work hard in the army and one day he would be able to go out. Unfortunately, he made a mistake and was kicked out of the army.

However, seeing the 10th generation of Flamingo in front of him, Zuo Yu began to look forward to it again, "The purpose of Flamingo should be to let more people have fun, those so-called 'powered exoskeletons' sold online are useless." On the other hand, it is definitely not comparable to the real product in terms of technology and wearing experience. Since Flamingo designed the tenth generation as an exoskeleton, based on their reputation, the feeling after wearing it is not as good as the real product. Not too much difference.

While Fang Zhao was talking with Zuo Yu, a speeding car flew over.

Because there was no extra space to park, a middle-aged man in work clothes jumped out of the car first, and showed Fang Zhao his work certificate, "Hello, I'm Zachary, the engineer who contacted you."

Zachary looks a bit like the staff of Muzhou Farm, a little dark, his rough hands are full of calluses, and he is very energetic.

After introducing himself, Zachary pressed somewhere on the transparent box, and four rollers popped up under the box. Zachary pushed the box away first, and asked his assistant to park the car on the tarmac.

"Where does Mr. Fang want to put the machine?" Zachary asked.

"That room." Fang Zhao opened a room, which he had prepared a long time ago, and it was still empty, with no other things placed there.

After Zachary pushed the box into the room, he began to get busy with his assistant. While installing, he also explained to Fang Zhao the advantages of the tenth generation compared to the previous nine generations.

"This is a powered exoskeleton type, wearable, it will not bring you a heavy burden, and it is more convenient. For example, if you are tired from playing games, you can directly wear it to eat, drink and sleep. That is to say, except for bathing, basically It can be worn all the time, and it also satisfies the pursuit of some players for the power suit of the Space Marine Corps. If you can adapt to this, even if you wear the power suit of the Space Marine Corps in the future, you will not feel too much discomfort. Of course, the real sky It doesn't have many functions of the power suit of the Marine Corps. The power suit of the Space Marine Corps is a "weapon". It feels more real…”

When Zachary was explaining, Zuo Yu was eager to try, "Boss, after you try it later, can you let me feel it?"

"Yes." Fang Zhao said.

After the installation and inspection, Zachary instructed Fang Zhao to put it on. It was actually not complicated, because it was automated, and only needed to confirm the identity and usage rights.

Fang Zhao can feel that he is wearing a "shell", but he doesn't feel that stuffy and restrained. Waving his hands, swinging his arms, walking, jumping, etc. are all free, and there is no sense of hindrance. Zachary said that he can wear it. Eat, drink, sleep, it seems true.

"Okay, now you can enter the adaptation stage. It is recommended that you lie down. If you are standing, once you enter the game for a long time, your nerves will not feel tired, but your body will still bear the burden. After leaving the game, you will feel some side effects. Sitting is fine, but I recommend lying down," Zachary said.

Fang Zhao didn't go out to find a bed, he just lay down on the spot, and followed Zachary's instructions to enter the adaptation process.

As if his soul had been pulled out of his body, Fang Zhao felt that he was standing in a strange place, and he couldn't feel the feeling of his body lying on the floor at all.

There was a basketball in front of him, and the surrounding area turned into a basketball court, with a wooden floor under his feet, and he himself was wearing a basketball uniform and basketball shoes.

"Mr. Fang, you have entered the adaptation process now, you can exercise freely, and we will test your adaptation degree." Zachary's voice came from beside his ear.

Fang Zhao stopped talking nonsense, walked over to pick up the ball, and could clearly feel the texture of the basketball surface.

Indeed...very true!

Fang Zhao started to try patting.

boom! boom! boom!

The sound of the basketball hitting the floor was mixed with the sound of the air inside the ball, stimulating the excited nerves.

Fang Zhao walked forward while slapping, the speed of slapping became faster and faster, and the movement of dribbling became more and more proficient.

...

In the room, Zachary looked at a series of charts displayed on the measuring instrument, and then looked at the comprehensive data on the far side, where it showed "60", the top bar was 100, and generally it would be no problem to reach 60.

Looking at these data, Zachary showed a relaxed smile on his face, "Not bad, if you can reach 60, it means you can use it normally, you have adapted well, and after a month of adaptation, you may be able to reach 70..."

Before he finished speaking, Zachary became dumb. He stared blankly at the fitness value displayed on the screen. After stabilizing at 60, it started to jump again.

61...64...68...72...

What did you just say?

Get used to it for another month?

It didn't even take half an hour, and the fitness value jumped from 60 to 75!

"Hiss, this adaptability is strong enough!" Zachary's assistant said in surprise.

The data stabilized at "75".

Zachary shook his head with a smile, "Unexpectedly, this Mr. Fang's ability to adapt to the machine can reach 75. I am afraid that some people in the company will be disappointed. Some people thought that if Mr. Fang could not adapt well, once Auction machines, they will start to buy, now it seems that those people may not have a chance."

"Master." Borken, Zachary's assistant, shouted.

"What?" Zachary sent a message to someone without moving his eyes, and asked.

"The data has changed again."

"Nonsense, the data is always changing, as long as it is stable within a fluctuation range. I forgot what I taught you?!" Zachary said dissatisfied.

"No, look!"

Zachary looked up at the data on the screen, his eyes slowly widening.

The comprehensive value, which was already stable at 75, began to jump up again.

78, 79, 80, 81...

Although the rise is not as fast as before, it is indeed rising, which can no longer be explained by fluctuations within a reasonable range!

"This...is this adaptability too strong?!" Thinking of something, Zachary turned his head and asked Zuo Yu, "Is your boss really an artist? Didn't you have a part-time job?"

Zuo Yu was confused, "He's really just a composer."
