Do Cyberdoctors Dream of Mechanical Zombies?

Chapter 4 Second Floor
Shen Yi lay on the bed, staring at the cold metal ceiling, his mind was full of thoughts.

He had already sold his body to Huang Quanzong.

After his death, the corpse will probably be taken away by the monks of the Netherworld Sect and refined into a zombie.

Be lucky, be a zombie miner and spend your whole life digging in the dark mine.

Unlucky, he became the corpse puppet of a certain monk in a martial arts fight. In a certain martial arts fight, he was wiped out with ashes and no bones left.

Shen Yi thought wildly for a while.

Then, he sat up straight and continued to study the mysterious "character column".

Shen Yi remembered very clearly that at that time, he was cultivating when he suddenly heard a notification sound, and then the character column appeared.

That voice said "Rejuvenation Kung Fu proficiency +0.01!"

Although I vaguely understand what this means.

But he wasn't sure, and was going to try again.

Shen Yi sat cross-legged and meditated, and with a movement of his mind, he activated the function of the artificial spiritual root's automatic cultivation "Rejuvenation Kung Fu".

After a while, the voice just now sounded in Shen Yi's ear again.

"Rejuvenation skill proficiency +0.01!"

And in his character column, the skill line, the second level of Rejuvenation Kung Fu (87.33), has changed to the second level of Rejuvenation Kung Fu (87.34)!
Shen Yi reckoned that this should be the progress of his kung fu cultivation.

He called out the character column, studied it carefully, and found a text-sized question mark icon in the lower right corner of the character column.

Shen Yi manipulated his consciousness to touch that icon.

A light curtain appeared on a page of text, is this the game manual?
He read word by word, carefully read a page of text, and also figured out the function of the "character column".

It can digitize the skills and techniques Shen Yi has mastered.

Through proficiency, the number of layers of skills can be increased, and the effect and power of spells can be improved.

If this is the case, wouldn't he be able to quickly advance to the third level of Qi training?

Shen Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly continued to practice, practicing for a full three hours at a stretch.

Therefore, there is no spiritual vein, and the spiritual energy is thin. Shen Yi practiced for three hours, and the proficiency of the second layer of the Rejuvenation Kungfu only increased by 0.18.

Character: Shen Yi

Skill: Rejuvenation Kungfu Level 87.54 ([-])

When the proficiency reaches 100, it will be promoted to the third level of rejuvenation kung fu!

If you practice eight hours a day, one hour is 0.06, eight hours is 0.48, ten days is 4.80, 20 days is 9.6, and it takes almost 25 to 100 days to reach [-] proficiency in the second level of rejuvenation kung fu!

If you use the 996 cultivation method, the time can be shortened to seventeen days.

If it is the 007 practice method, the time will be compressed to eight days!
In just eight days, Shen Yi can advance to the third level of Qi training!
Thinking of this, his breathing became a little heavier.

Whether it is the 996 cultivation method or the 007 cultivation method, Shen Yi can accept it, and his body can bear it.

I'm just afraid that the artificial spiritual roots on his body won't be able to hold on.

Once the artificial spiritual root is overloaded and overheated, the spiritual root will be scrapped at least, and it will be scrapped at worst.

It's still better to play steadily.

The 996 cultivation method is very good, but the 007 is too harmful to the human spiritual root.

Shen Yi glanced at the electronic perpetual calendar hanging on the wall, it was already 19:08 in the evening.

Just stay up all night and practice tonight.

Some artificial spiritual roots also support modes such as "sleep practice" and "all-day practice".

Shen Yi's artificial spiritual roots are relatively low-end.

When practicing, you must maintain the posture of cross-legged meditation.

Fortunately, over the years, he has mastered the ability to sleep while meditating.

Although the effect of rest is not very good, but there are not many victories.

Practice overnight.

The next morning, six fifty in the morning.

The electronic radio placed by the bed was automatically turned on, and the morning broadcast sounded. From it came the voice of the ruler of the City of Eternal Life and the current suzerain of the Underworld Sect, Master Shande.

"Good morning, City of Eternal Life!"

Shen Yi opened his bloodshot eyes, numbly got up and washed, and went out to school.

last night.

He practiced for a whole night and gained a total of 0.78 points of proficiency.

Calling up the character column, and taking a look, Shen Yi smiled contentedly.

Character: Shen Yi

Skill: Rejuvenation Kungfu Level 88.32 ([-])

There's nothing better than seeing yourself making progress through hard work.

Walking out of the apartment building, I went to the small shop on the first floor, and spent one spiritual coin to buy three big meat buns and a bottle of soda.

The bun skin tasted like plasticine, the meat filling inside was meat-flavored plasticine, and the soda had a taste of artificial saccharine, sweet and disgusting.

In the lower ghettos, it's all food.

No choice, let's eat together.

Shen Yi ate while walking, if he was late, he would miss the elevator.

Lower city, 22 floors in total.

The first and second floors are the college area, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth floors are the factory area, seventy, eighty, ninety are the slums, and the remaining twelve floors are the garbage burial area.

Shen Yi studied at the Taoist Vocational and Technical College on the second floor. He went to school every day and had to take the elevator from the eighth floor to the second floor.

When passing the commercial street.

Illusion ads appear again, extremely annoying.

The commercial street is the only bustling place on the eighth floor. It is said to be prosperous, but it is actually just a dilapidated street decorated with neon lights and illusions.

The streets are full of homeless and drunk bums, prostitutes with heavy make-up and scantily clad clothes, and gangsters with loud and crazy cybernetic bodies.

It looked like they had another night of fun.

Shen Yi quickly walked through the commercial street, walked through several blocks, and several alleys, and came to the entrance of the "elevator".

At this time, there was already a long queue at the entrance of the elevator.

Among them, there are students and workers in gray clothes. They are all going to the upper floor.

Shen Yi quietly lined up at the end of the line, waiting for his turn.

He took out an identity token from his pocket and handed it to the red-robed monk guarding the elevator.

The red-robed monk took it, and took Shen Yi's identity token to scan it on an identification machine, and the green light was on.

The red-robed monk glanced at the virtual light curtain on the machine, and said coldly: "Shen Yi, 16 years old, a vocational student, go to the second floor and enter."

"Next!"

After finishing speaking, the green-robed monk returned Shen Yi's identity token to him.

Shen Yi took it, put the token in his pocket, and walked into the elevator.

The red robe monk guarding the elevator is a member of the "red robe picket team".Responsible for maintaining law and order and assisting the Law Enforcement Hall in handling cases, it is a subordinate unit of the Law Enforcement Hall.

The red-robed picket team has a famous name, and its members are all little monks in the second and third levels of Qi training, so they do some dirty work and the salary is not high.

Not only the law enforcement hall looked down on them.

Even the citizens of the lower city look down on them.

This is mainly because some monks in red robes like to rely on the little power they have to blackmail ordinary citizens, collude with gangs, and help evildoers.

Citizens in the lower city privately called the monks of the red-robed picket team red-skinned dogs and stinky ones.

Inside the elevator.

It's not so much an elevator.

It is more appropriate to describe it as a simple mechanical hall.

Its internal space is nearly as large as one or two acres of land and can accommodate thousands of people.

The elevator is purely mechanical, in disrepair, with stains and exposed wires everywhere.There are also mice crawling around above the elevator, squeaking and screaming.

Every morning, there are twelve to three hundred people taking the elevator on the eighth floor.

When the time comes.

The elevator doors rumbled shut.

But at this time, an accident happened, and the elevator door seemed to be stuck and could not be closed.

This caused the workers and students in the elevator to complain again and again.

"What's the matter, it's like this every day, can it work!"

"Damn it, I have to be late again today, so I won't get the perfect attendance award"

"Hey, hurry up and deal with it, we are in a hurry to go to work!"

"What's the rush, isn't this under maintenance? Shut up, beep, beep, and get the hell out!" a red-robed monk said impatiently.

"A bunch of troublemakers!"

"Okay, hurry up and fix it. If it delays the work of the workers and the start of the factory, we will bear the responsibility!"

Another red-robed monk said anxiously.

It was repaired by several red-robed monks.

After 10 minutes, the elevator doors finally closed.

The elevator started to operate, and the engine buffed by mana rumbled, rising slowly.

After 10 minutes, the elevator reached the seventh floor.

Because the seventh floor is also a residential area, the elevator did not stop, and continued to go up until it reached the factory area on the sixth floor.

The elevator stayed here for 10 minutes, and some gray-robed workers got off the elevator and went to the factory to start a hard day's work.

The [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th floors are all factory areas.

Every floor, the elevator will stop for a while.

After finally reaching the second floor, there were only a few students left in the elevator.

Adding Shen Yi, exactly nine people.

Not everyone can afford the high tuition fees.

Take the Taoist Technical Vocational College where Shen Yi attended as an example.

The annual tuition fee is 150 spirit stones, ten spirit stones for books, five spirit stones for tuition and miscellaneous fees, two spirit stones for school uniform fees, and other miscellaneous expenses.

All together, it is 170 nine spirit stones a year.

Taoist Technical Vocational College has a three-year schooling system, and the tuition fee is 537 Lingshi.

Because I can't afford such high tuition fees.

Most people in the lower urban area have been taking online classes at home since childhood, receiving online education and becoming self-taught.

There are only two ways out when you grow up.

Go work in a factory, or join a gang.

In order to study in the Taoist Vocational and Technical College, Shen Yi did not hesitate to take ten years of student loans, and even sold his own body as collateral to Huang Quanzong.

Such a high price.

Naturally, there are rich rewards!

Study in the Taoist Vocational Technical College. After completing the three-year school system, and the cultivation level reaches the third level of Qi training, you can go to higher education.

Huangquan Academy was founded by three generations of suzerains and named after using the Taoist name of the ancestor of Huangquanzong.

After graduating from the Netherworld Academy, you can officially join the Netherworld Sect and become an outer disciple of the Netherworld Sect!
This is also the only way to join the Underworld Sect.

There is only one way to get ahead in the City of Eternal Life, to climb to the top of the Underworld Sect!

Get out of the elevator.

Not only is the area of ​​the second floor larger than that of the eighth floor, but the surrounding environment is also much better than that of the eighth floor.

Surrounded by high-rise buildings with more than [-] floors.

The neon lights are flashing, competing with all kinds of advertisements to be the first to catch the eye, dazzled.

Pedestrians and cyber zombies are bustling on the tidy streets, with illusion green plants on both sides of the streets.

On the road, there are monks strolling around on monster mounts, and some monks drive luxury or cheap flying boats, soaring in the air.

Shen Yi stared at the bustling second floor in front of him, he was slightly absent-minded, after a while, he came back to his senses, and walked quickly towards the Taoist Vocational and Technical College.
