Underground test center

A body without a body, a most unique third-order civilization building.

The senior engineer was installed inside and is currently doing the final debugging work.

Black Rose silently watched this scene. Her body was isolated from the outside world, and the engineer, inside, could not hear any outside sounds.

"Do you think he noticed something was wrong with me?" Black Rose muttered to herself.

"Ha, you underestimate our lover. Didn't he find out last night?" another voice from Black Rose rang out.

"Looks like it's too comfortable," Black Rose suddenly revealed a lazy smile. "After all, strictly speaking, this is my first time too."

"Snort!"

"Isn't it my turn next?" another voice from Black Rose rang out.

Meanwhile, within his empty body, the senior engineer was meditating silently.

He installed six high-tech prosthetic devices at once, and even he had to make sure there were no problems.

Fortunately, Rose's android progenitor bloodline was indeed powerful, and after the adjustments were completed, there were absolutely no problems.

Seeing that the mechanical system had been upgraded to 300%, Foreman Gao breathed a sigh of relief.

The core technologies of four super corporations were implanted into him. In other words, if you were a player, you would have to start from scratch and grind to the maximum reputation level of your faction before you would be eligible to purchase these core technologies.

However, given the nature of these mega-corporations, in the end they probably won't provide equipment, but rather find some excuse to throw him into a septic tank.

If you don't become a core management member, how can you expect to master core technologies? You're asking for trouble!

"Debugging complete. Do you wish to exit?"

"Leave."

The space rippled, and the figure of the senior engineer slowly appeared. He was no different from before, still looking like a god. But upon closer inspection, there were a few fine cracks on the surface of his skin. He had lost some of his divinity and gained some of his inhuman qualities.

On the ground, Black Rose looked at the other person with a smile. The senior engineer returned the smile, and the light of divine consciousness flashed in his eyes.

The attributes of the Black Rose have been highlighted once again.

Everything else remains unchanged.

This time, however, the name "Black Rose (No. 2)" has been changed to "Black Rose (No. 3)".

'...'

The senior engineer slowly floated down and looked intently at the Black Rose.

"Sister Rose, now you can tell me what happened to you on Night Star, right?"

"Are you that curious about me?"

The Black Rose seemed to have changed again, becoming much younger, transforming from a wealthy woman into a young married woman. The way she looked at him became very clingy, and when the senior engineer landed, she hugged him tightly.

"Alright, since you want to know, I'll show you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene before the senior engineer changed. The ceiling disappeared and was replaced by a "star chain" composed of asteroids, with the nearest meteorite less than 100 meters away from him.

The moon, the night star, was the one beneath his feet.

Black Rose has connected her sensory system to the senior engineer's sensory system.

"This is an old android research base of the Sanyuan Group, which is also the place where the last fragment of the android progenitor is sealed."

Following Black Rose's gaze, the senior engineer walked directly into the base in the center of a crater, slowly descending until a colossal object appeared before him.

It was a cyborg over a hundred meters tall, and it appeared to be a woman. Its upper body was missing its left arm, giving it a kind of incomplete beauty reminiscent of Venus.

If it's a 100-meter-tall mechanical object, besides being awe-inspiring, there might not be any other feelings. When we see satellite-sized mechanical objects or even stellar robots in the future, even the initial awe will disappear.

But if this hundred-meter-tall life is a lifelike living person, then this shock becomes an indescribable eeriness.

In particular, this face bears a striking resemblance to Sister Rose.

"Actually, the Sanyuan Group didn't originally intend to create androids; they wanted to create gods."

"God? In what sense?"

"On a religious level."

"Then I understand, which one is it?"

"Of course, they failed. Gods are not so easily born. However, the technology for creating 'gods' has been applied to another level and has become an indispensable part of this era," Black Rose paused and said, "It is called 'corporate will'."

"So that's it!" the senior engineer murmured.

This thing is like the ultimate version of the 996 work culture, not only manipulating employees but also management, and its main claim is equality for all.

So it was you who invented it!

If people knew that the culprit behind the corporate era was Sanyuan Group, the group's stock price might plummet to rock bottom, or it might rise tenfold.

Since you invented "corporate will", your company's management must be very strong. This is good news, a major positive!

"The attempt to create a god failed, and 'androids' that became human became the mainstream in the market. This is probably why the Sanyuan Group has fallen on hard times."

Black Rose nodded.

"I originally only wanted to take away the last piece of the android fragment, but after I merged it with myself, I unexpectedly contacted a female scientist from the Sanyuan Group. This scientist's ancestor was one of the scientists who created the android."

Black Rose paused for a moment, then said, "We have reached an agreement."

Now the senior engineer understood why Black Rose had acquired Sanyuan Group; there was a reason behind it.

What are the specifics of your agreement?

Since this involves "android technology," the transaction will definitely not be as simple as exchanging money for shares.

"I made a promise with her to restart 'God's Technology'."

"Just as I thought!"

The senior engineer stared at the oversized "Sister Rose" in front of him and said softly, "Sister Rose, this android society has already taken shape. What you are doing will inevitably impact this android world, and may even destroy all androids."

"I'm not an android. What do I care about whether androids live or die?"

"And if it's destroyed, what about you too?"

"I'm really looking forward to this happening."

The last sentence is quite similar to the original Black Rose: in the Iron Sand Desert, beneath the beautiful, scorpion-like exterior of a woman lies a strong desire for self-destruction.

"The god of androids!"

The senior engineer muttered to himself.

Even including his previous life, Gao Gong had only dealt with a handful of android civilizations. Firstly, such civilizations were indeed very niche and rare. Secondly, regardless of the type of android civilization, a large number of its members looked similar, or even identical. Their models, bodies, and faces were almost identical, making it impossible to tell who the leader of the civilization was.

Is this a Gestalt civilization or a Hive civilization? Even researchers of cosmic civilizations find it difficult to say for sure.

However, as a seasoned veteran, the senior engineer clearly felt that this technical route was somewhat sinister. In fact, any technical route that is associated with "gods" is somewhat sinister.

If not handled properly, it could become a poison core for civilization.

"However, it's not like there's no chance at all."

Under normal circumstances, this approach is likely to encounter resistance, such as the Punk Group being suppressed by a joint effort of three planetary civilizations.

Rose is already the boss of the four major corporations, yet she still wants to become a god. The backlash from civilization she encounters will only be stronger.

After all, the main body of the android society consists of hundreds of millions of androids, and if these androids unite, they can even turn against the upper class.

Isn't that how the android revolution came about?

From one android leader, A, there were suddenly a thousand, ten thousand, or even a million androids. Although these androids did not have the ability of 'nano-biomimetic,' their strength was no less than that of android A.

Who knows where this thing came from? The android society itself has too many secrets.

"Even when the snipe and the clam fight, there's always a chance," the senior engineer said softly. "I'll help you."

Black Rose No. 3 smiled sweetly.

"Now can you tell me what's really going on between you?"

"I told you I couldn't hide it from him," Black Rose said abruptly.

As his bedmate, the senior engineer immediately recognized that this was Black Rose No. 1, or rather, Black Rose from the Iron Sand Desert era.

"Aisin told me that the reason why the 'Bionic God Project' failed was because the will of God was too strong. No matter how much bionics it was, it was impossible to create a body that could completely control the will of God. Even giantification didn't work."

Black Rose looked at the giant android in the distance and said:

"Therefore, we changed our approach and adopted the most advanced version update technology in the current android world. Each version of the Black Rose contains a portion of the will of God, which takes turns to offset the oppression of the will of God."

"The 'will of God' you speak of is the corporate will of the six giants?"

"Yes."

"So that's why there are three Black Rose?"

"There are four," the young woman with the air of Black Rose suddenly changed, making a move that Rose Sister would never do: squint her eyes, stick out her tongue, and even give the senior engineer a kiss with a "smack." When she saw the senior engineer coming over, her face turned red, and she glanced to the side.

They're actually pretty cute!

"Sister Rose, number four, are you Sister Rose from Sanyuan Group?"

"Yes, little brother."

The senior engineer was speechless.

Mature women, wealthy women, young women, and beautiful girls.

How come they seem to be getting younger as they age?

Will the next one be a minor?

However, the current Rose Sister is strong, extremely strong.

For example, the bionic human rights that the senior engineer holds can only control ordinary models of bionics. However, Black Rose, who has absorbed the will of four super corporations, can be said to have absorbed no model she cannot.

Furthermore, given the right opportunity, android A and Prometheus can also be "reprogrammed" and turned into one of their own.

Suddenly realizing something, the senior engineer's expression changed, and he said, "Sister Rose, you wouldn't have flashed my phone too, would you? I'm absolutely loyal to you."

Black Rose gave a proud snort, "Loyalty that isn't absolute is absolute disloyalty. Are you absolutely loyal?"
