Chapter 257: Clone
“Are you our BOSS?”
"Lilith, don't be rude!" A tall, slender man wearing a number 01 helmet and a long hoodie with the word "positive" printed on the back looked to the side with a serious look on his face. He was wearing a single-ear earphone and a tight-fitting jumpsuit. The cute beauty with short hair and big eyes scolded, then saluted Xia Che and said, "Hello, BOSS, I am Begabank's clone No. 01, you can also call me Sakyamuni! "
"I am Begabank's clone No. 03, and my name is Edison."
"I, I am No. 05, Atlas."
"No. 04, Pythagoras, BOSS."
"Hahaha, I am No. 02, Lilith!"
"Hello everyone!"
Looking at the five people in front of him who were created by Vegapunk but had completely different personalities, Xia Che also greeted them with a smile, and then asked curiously, "Where is Vegapunk?"
"We are all Vegapunks! BOSS." After hearing Xia Che's words, Sakyamuni, who represents the integrity, reminded Xia Che a little, and then said, "Of course, I think you are looking for the original body. Right in the back, new equipment is being sorted out right now, so you can just go in and find him.”
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and made a respectful gesture, inviting Xia Che in. Xia Che did not continue chatting with the five Vegapunks and walked directly inside.
that is……
Along the way, Xia Che couldn't help but frown, looking at the surrounding underground laboratory.
I haven’t been here for a while. Has this place gotten bigger again?
"Ontology and we have slightly expanded the underground laboratory in the past few days, and we have also expanded it underneath. After all, there are more people, and the original laboratory is still a bit small for so many Vegapunks!" Shakya seemed to see Xia Che's doubts at once, and said directly, "Now it is connected to the sea below. Of course, please don't worry. After our transformation, the sea water will not pour in, and there is a specially designed pipe made by us and Val. The new high-pressure resistant diamond glass jointly developed by Mr. Bo allows us to directly observe the sea. BOSS, do you want to take a look? "
"That's right, BOSS, it's very beautiful there." Lilith, who was a bit out of her mind, said with a smile, "If your funds increase a little more, I can take you there to visit in person!"
"Lilith, don't use this to force the boss." After hearing Lilith's words, the righteous Sakyamuni helplessly scolded Lilith and said, "Otherwise, I will report it to the main body. Don't blame the main body again. Your salary will be deducted.”
"That's right, Lilith, you have to respect the BOSS! I said it's hard to find such a generous boss!"
"Okay!" After hearing that even Atlas said this to her, before Xia Che said anything, Lilith compromised directly and said helplessly, "I just want to get more funds, and I am also prepared to Let’s catch some sea kings and study them!”
"Please don't blame Lilith." Shakya turned his head, looked at Xia Che again, and said, "After all, there are too many Vegapunks, and the funds are indeed a bit tight, but BOSS, don't worry about us, we can just bear it for a while. You can live with it.”
"..."
Immediately afterwards...
Five faces looked at him together.
Faced with five Vegapunks, Xia Che couldn't help but panic.
Although Shakya was scolding Lilith, but... he always felt that these five Vegapunks were deliberately looking for topics to increase his funding?
"This..." Xia Che pretended to cough twice, looked at the Vegapunk clone in front of him, and said, "Increase the funding..."
He straightened out the last note and continued to look at the five faces looking at him expectantly. Then he changed his tone and said seriously, "We'll talk about it later. Let me see if you have been working seriously during this period." !”
As soon as these words fell.
really.
The faces of the five Vegapunks suddenly showed expressions of disappointment. Even the robot Pythagoras No. 04 could see disappointment on his robot face. Of course, although the Begapunks were very disappointed when they did not get the funds, Shakya recovered quickly and continued to lead Xia Che inside.
During the process, we also took a detour and went underground. I have to say, five Vegapunks are amazing!
This is where the expansion continues on the lower part of the island!
It was just a passage to the seabed, and then a basement was built directly in the sea.
And just like Lilith said, everything around it is made of transparent new high-pressure-resistant diamond glass. Through the clear glass, you can completely see the appearance of the sea outside, and you can even see the fish swimming. Got it crystal clear.
An underwater experiment no less than an underground laboratory on a small island!
At the same time, the prison in the laboratory is now also set up here, so that seawater can be directly used to restrict ability users, which improves safety and reduces costs.
Under the leadership of Sakyamuni, Xia Che was once again shocked by this familiar experimental island.
No wonder there is a lack of funds!
The six Vegapunks came together and brought a big wave to the island!
Everywhere is filled with various advanced technologies. Of course, according to Lilith, that is future technology.
However, Shakya refuted it again, saying that after research... it seems that there was more advanced technology in distant ancient times, and they were just restoring the technology of the past step by step.
Finally, after a brief walk around, accompanied by five Vegapunks, Xia Che came to the laboratory where Vegapunk's body was staying.
Just walked in.
"Are you here?" Vegapunk came up excitedly and said, "How about the specially modified laboratory by Vegapunks? Did it surprise you? There are many incredible inventions in it. ”
"I'm surprised, but..." After hearing Vegapunk's words, Xia Che nodded and said with a serious face, "How much do those inventions cost? What is the output? Can it be mass-produced? And can it bring us How much profit will there be?”
As soon as these words fell.
Suddenly.
The originally proud face of Vegapunk suddenly fell.
Even Lilith complained directly, "BOSS, you are so disappointing!"
"There is no way, I have to support your research." Xia Che directly spread his hands and said with helplessness, "Don't you look at how much money you spend every year?"
In particular, he did not force Vegapunk to do research too much, but sometimes gave some rigid invention requirements.
Therefore, so that...
This guy sometimes lets himself go. An idea pops up in his head, and he just builds it regardless of whether it is useful or how much it costs.
Of course, it’s not completely useless. If it’s not useful now, maybe it can be used in the future?
Therefore, it is directly regarded as a technical reserve.
Save it and take it out if you need it in the future.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Looking at the five Vegapunk clones and the melancholy Vegapunk body, Xia Che said curiously, "Why did you specially call me here this time? If there is If there is any new invention, just bring it out! Maybe..." The tone changed, "The funding will increase?"
As soon as these words fell.
The eyes of the six Vegapunks also lit up, and they said in unison, "Yes!"
