Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 178 Ding Ye, resurrected!
To facilitate the conversation, Zhou Yi jumped down from the cave.

The prison cave was filled with a strong, fermented, rotten smell. You didn't feel it from above, but once you were inside it, you felt extremely suffocated.

Zhou Yi felt a little dizzy from the stench.

In comparison, Meizhou Prison is really clean and hygienic.

Feng Ying, however, looked as usual, as if these smells did not exist at all.

"What do you mean by resurrection?"

“It’s not really a secret.”

The female pharmacist said softly: "Every Beiyang knight has a Beiyang weapon. Whether it is a sword, a spear, a halberd, or a combat prosthesis, there is a special "upload" light seal on the weapon, which is connected to the "download" light seal of the knight's enhanced body."

"Every move of the knight will be recorded by the weapon, especially the actual combat experience, which will eventually become a special storage."

"If there is no death, the Beiyang weapon will accompany the knight throughout his life, until the knight dies and returns to the sword tomb. If unfortunately he dies, then the knight will continue to exist in the form of a weapon."

"The human Ding Ye is dead, but the Beiyang Sword Ding Ye can be resurrected. As long as the Beiyang Sword is restarted, Ding Ye will reappear in the world in the form of a sword."

Zhou Yi hissed in his heart.

All the knight's data has been recorded in the weapon. Is this a direct upload of consciousness?
He quickly came to his senses: "This is not consciousness, it's just data."

"You are right. What is uploaded and downloaded is not consciousness, but a large amount of memory data left over from the past."

Feng Ying said calmly: "But this is also a kind of continuation, just like a child inherits a part of his father's generation. Ding Ye's battle memories, lifestyle, personality habits... are all recorded on the Beiyang Sword, forming a unique trajectory. As long as the sword is opened, Ding Ye's trajectory will not stop."

"The Beiyang knights continued their spirit in this way, so they were fearless and brave."

"What happens after that?"

Zhou Yi asked again: "Even if it's as you said, what kind of life is a knight in the form of a weapon?"

"There are usually two paths. One is to return to the Sword Tomb and be responsible for teaching and training new knights."

Feng Ying had no intention of hiding anything: "The second is to join the Beiyang Corps and serve as a soldier in the war. Jianzhong will equip them with special mechanical prostheses so that they can control them and let the weapons drive the entire body to move and fight."

Zhou Yixin said, "So that's it."

The Beiyang knight trained his individual combat ability, activated his weapon form after his death, and then served in the corps.

No wonder Qiansu and other weapons dealers believe that the Corps is more powerful.

The Beiyang Corps is composed entirely of battle-hardened knights.

Zhou Yi thought about it: "This kind of technical mechanism is actually to use people to feed special weapons, right? Accumulate combat data through a large number of human knights' combat, and then upload it to Beiyang weapons..."

In his era, it was actually the same as the big AI model.

By feeding and providing feedback on large amounts of data, a sufficiently powerful artificial intelligence can be developed.

As long as the Beiyang weapons are not broken, they will become stronger and stronger.

"The amount of data of the Beiyang Corps should be very huge, and it will increase year by year as more knights die. To store such a large amount of data... is this a unique technology of the Beiyang region?"

This is what Zhou Yi cares about most.

"It seems that you are very knowledgeable about photoprinting technology."

Feng Ying was slightly surprised: "Our "upload" and "download" are all Xingshu light prints, and Xingshu provides technical support."

Zhou Yi was stunned: "Are you from the Xingshu camp?"

"No."

Feng Ying patiently explained: "The Beiyang region belongs neither to the Kingdom of Heaven nor to the Star Hub. It is an independent settlement."

"A long time ago, after repelling the invasion of the Governor of Heaven in the War of Honor, the Xingshu voters went to the Beiyang region to lobby for Xingshu. But the people of Beiyang refused. We just want to live our own lives."

"Later, the Beiyang region carried out a series of reforms. In terms of system, the Beiyang Knights and Beiyang Corps were established. In terms of technology, the Xingshu Light Seal was introduced... After various attempts and adjustments, it has become what it is today."

"We rented the Flying Star from Xingshu to store the [Sword Tomb], so that the souls of the knights in the Beiyang weapons can be uploaded to the Flying Star."

Zhou Yi understood.

Xingshu provides cloud data services.

From this point of view, the Beiyang region and the Xingshu camp have closer relations.

For Xingshu, winning over the support of an independent force that is difficult for the Kingdom of Heaven to deal with is also a strategic success.

Zhou Yi looked at Feng Ying: "Why did you hurt someone?"

"Because of a scam."

The female pharmacist said calmly: "I received the news of Ding Ye's death, so I came all the way to deal with his funeral. I passed by here by boat and found someone using fake medicine to deceive a patient."

"That patient gave all his money to the scammer in exchange for useless fake medicine."

"I exposed the liar on the spot. He threw sand at me and attacked me with many people. I knocked him down first."

“And then I was caught here.”

It sounds like a brave act.

Zhou Yi asked Hongshun to ask the Fullmetal Alchemist.

They also acknowledge this fact, but Fullmetal Alchemist is from the perspective of a ruler, so anyone who disrupts order will be arrested.

In addition to Feng Ying, the swindler in question was also imprisoned.

Zhou Yi asked Gang Lian Gong: "How long will Feng Ying stay here?"

"It's not a big deal, I'll let her go now."

"Still follow the rules."

"Then... according to normal procedures, the enhancer needs to pay a bail of 5 light species."

"it is good."

Zhou Yi paid the money, took Feng Ying out of prison, and flew back to Emerald City on the Ridgecrest.

……

After arriving at Maria Hospital, Feng Ying listened to Ding Ye's will.

Da Vinci also verified Feng Ying's identity, looked up her personal information on the Medical Encyclopedia, and completed a comparison to confirm that it was her.

Only then did Zhou Yi hand her the big sword left by Ding Ye.

This big sword has two layers, the thick outer layer is just a protective metal scabbard. After receiving it, Zhou Yi did not use it, but just put it on the shelf in the house.

Feng Ying took the sword with both hands. She checked it left and right, turned the two sides of the hilt a few times, opened the two mechanical buckles on it, and took out the hilt.

Then she grasped the hilt of the sword, and the end of it emitted a green light, then flashed rhythmically a few times, and finally returned to darkness.

"All right."

Feng Ying gently waved the hilt of the sword: "Ding Ye is already operating in the form of a sword."

Beiyang Jian Dingye cannot communicate directly and is more like a CPU.

It also lacks a prosthetic body that matches its functions.

Zhou Yi said: "Can I give it a try?"

"can."

Feng Ying handed over the hilt of the sword.

Zhou Yi held the prop.

He started the energy input with the intention of giving it a try.

It actually worked.

Then the consciousness is in sync and turned on.

"Ding Ye?"

"Who are you?"

The young voice in my consciousness was indeed Ding Ye.

Zhou Yi thought from a different perspective.

Even if the data in the weapon is just a copy and has great limitations, it can serve as both a knight coach and a soldier of the Beiyang Corps, so it can indeed be considered a conscious entity.

Whether it can be considered Ding Ye is another matter.

"I'm Zhou Yi."

"Ah? Wasn't it Senior Sister before? You can directly connect to the light seal of Beiyang Sword?"

Zhou Yi just said: "Do you know your current state?"

"Yes, my original body is dead, and what remains is the memory trace in the light seal. I used to be Ding Ye, but now I am this sword. I have already learned this in the knight course."

"I am indeed dead."

Beiyang Jian said: "But this does not affect my existence now."

The other party seemed to have anticipated everything.

The knights' psychological preparation had been completed long ago.

"So what should I call you now?"

"It's still Ding Ye."

Beiyang Sword said: "The name is inherited from the weapon. This is the custom of Beiyang knights. I am the spiritual extension of Ding Ye, but I have left my flesh and blood body and changed into another form."

Zhou Yi asked: "What are your plans next?"

"I will join the Beiyang Corps."

What a coincidence, isn't it?

Zhou Yi talked about how he hired the Beiyang Corps.

"Is that so? Then I can contact the Sword Tomb and apply to participate in the operation here. It won't be difficult to match a set of prosthetics."

Ding Ye suddenly became active: "I didn't expect to have the opportunity to participate in the war so soon!"

Zhou Yi couldn't help but think of a question: "If, I mean if, you die in battle now, are you really dead?"

"It depends on the situation."

Ding Ye said: "If there is a backup at the sword tomb, even if I die, the next Ding Ye will start again if necessary. The knights will never die!"

Zhou Yi's eyes narrowed.

According to this model, the Beiyang Corps was almost an immortal army.

As long as there is enough time to continuously accumulate data and improve the strength of the prostheses, the Corps soldiers will become stronger and stronger, and their future will be limitless.

From this, we can also see that Xingshu, the technical support behind it, is very powerful in the field of big data.

Zhou Yi returned the hilt of the sword to Feng Ying.

He immediately switched to recruitment mode and said with a smile: "Ms. Feng, as you can see, there is only one doctor in our Wasteland Development Company's hospital, and we are very short of medical staff. The number of patients is increasing, and Dr. Da Vinci has to perform various surgeries, so he is really overwhelmed."

"I would like to formally invite you to join Maria Hospital and become a doctor in our company. What do you think?"

Feng Ying inserted the handle back into the sword: "I heard that medical care is free here?"

“It’s free for employees.”

"As for opening up to external patients, it depends on Dr. Da Vinci's situation. For patients like Ding Ye, our hospital is willing to try high-risk surgeries that other places are unwilling to perform."

Feng Ying's eyes lit up: "It sounds like you are not short of money."

Zhou Yi nodded: "We have other profitable projects, and medical care is a basic internal welfare."

"Then you won't use the hospital to deceive patients."

Feng Ying said seriously, "Some medical institutions are unwilling to perform high-risk surgeries and deliberately conceal untreatable conditions, but they still charge high fees in various ways. For poor patients, this is not a placebo, but simply draining their wealth and hope. You won't do such a thing, right?"

Zhou Yi promised: "We won't."

"Then I'll join."

Zhou Yi asked Da Vinci for a while, and then said: "The average monthly salary of a pharmacist in a mechanical and electrical city is 3 light-years. However, the conditions here are difficult, the labor intensity is high, and there is irregular overtime. I will give you a monthly salary of 5 light-years. Is it acceptable? One more thing, the previous bail will be deducted from your salary."

"I accept."

In this way, Maria Hospital welcomed its second professional medical staff.
