Legend of the Planet Builder-Chapter 294 - 240: The Birth of a Cyborg!

In the laboratory, the doctors are performing a localized neural prosthetic implantation on Qiao Feiyu.

Qiao Feiyu is lying on the operating table, eyes closed, as Hao Siqi uses a scalpel to cut open his finger, he feels nothing, without any anesthesia!

His nerve cells have atrophied to the point where he can’t perceive parts of his body below his head, and this time, he’s receiving a motor nerve prosthetic created by He Xingzhou and his team.

This prosthetic will connect to his brain, allowing him to control the movements of his fingers.

Connecting nerve tissues with precision is incredibly difficult, so this time they used a surgical robot to assist in the operation. freeweɓnovel~cѳm

Two hours later, a nurse wipes the sweat from Hao Siqi’s forehead. He whispers, "The surgery is complete!"

They use a restorative solution extracted from Zerg biological materials, which can accelerate cell recovery, reducing the recovery period from several months to just one day!

"Qiao Feiyu, don’t move yet. Try moving your fingers in ten hours." Hao Siqi instructed.

"I understand." Qiao Feiyu said through the computer.

For him, ten hours felt incredibly long, he couldn’t help but want to try waking his fingers, worrying that his hand hadn’t fully healed, he resisted the urge and passed the time in the internet world.

"Time’s up!" At the bedside, He Xingzhou arrived, saying, "Qiao Feiyu, try moving your fingers now."

"It’s finally time?" Qiao Feiyu opened his eyes, trying to move his fingers.

Everyone saw that the previously immobile fingers were now moving.

"My fingers are moving!" Qiao Feiyu shouted through the computer, tears welling in his eyes.

"Excellent!" Hao Siqi remarked, "The motor nerve prosthetic has passed the test too."

"Commander He, Director Hao, when can I stand up?" Qiao Feiyu inquired.

He Xingzhou said, "Your body organs have already failed. Due to the Zerg genetic virus, cell regeneration technology doesn’t work well for you."

"Even with the motor nerve prosthetic, your bone and muscle strength will struggle to support walking and movement."

"Therefore, as per our previous plan, we’ll proceed with large-scale prosthetic modifications. Your hands, feet, kidneys, liver, including major organs like the heart, will all be replaced with artificial prosthetic organs."

"I will install the first micro Quantum Computer in your brain, giving you a second brain. As this is the first experiment in human history, the risks are enormous!"

"No matter how great the risk, I am willing to endure it!" Qiao Feiyu immediately declared, "Even if it means sacrificing!"

He Xingzhou nodded, saying, "Rest assured, we will do our utmost to ensure the success of the surgery!"

...

"The tests on four types of neural prosthetics have passed." In the discussion room, Hao Siqi stated, "With the brain-computer interface device, theoretically, we can connect a human brain to a computer."

"Then use the Quantum Computer to control the mechanical prosthetics."

He Xingzhou said, "As for the mechanical prosthetic part, I’m not overly concerned. Our robotics technology is relatively mature, creating stable mechanical prosthetics should be no issue. The key is whether the artificial organs, neural prosthetics, and the human neural network, the brain’s nutritional supply can smoothly connect."

No one feels confident about this.

"No matter how risky, someone must be the first!" Hao Siqi said deeply, "Academician He, as long as your connector tests are complete, I will lead the design of the surgical plan and perform the surgery!"

He knows, such large-scale human modification surgery has never been attempted in human history, the risks are extremely high. The Neuro-Mechanical Technology is also being applied to humans for the first time!

For anyone, performing such surgery is highly stressful.

"Okay." He Xingzhou said, "Someone must take the first step, there are so many patients waiting for us!"

"If everything goes well, we’ll start the surgery in a week!"

Hao Siqi immediately led a group of experts to design the surgical plan, and He Xingzhou continued testing his neural connector.

The custom prosthetic organs for Qiao Feiyu have also been completely manufactured.

...

Like Qiao Feiyu, there are many others whose bodies were damaged by the Zerg genetic virus or other injuries, not only soldiers but civilians as well.

To help them regain confidence in life, before the surgery, He Xingzhou specially released a statement: "We have made significant breakthroughs in Neuro-Mechanical Technology and will perform the first neural mechanical implantation surgery at ten o’clock this morning."

"If successful, this surgery will solve the problem of human nerve cell atrophy and necrosis, and can implant a micro Quantum Computer into the body, aiding memory and computation."

He Xingzhou’s news was immediately reposted by major media.

"First neural mechanical implantation surgery to be performed soon"

"Latest update from Academician He Xingzhou: Major breakthrough in brain-computer interface technology"

"Will humans welcome Quantum Computer brains? Keep an eye on technological frontiers"

"Gene virus patients have hope! Academician He’s latest technical statement"

...

"Neuro-Mechanical Technology, human implantation?" fans were filled with curiosity and questions, "@Planet Builder, is it the kind of neuro-mechanical we imagined?"

"Cyborgs are emerging!!! I always said humans need modification to combat Zerg!"

"Yeah, now unmanned weapons are far superior to manned ones, humans can’t compete with intelligent devices. At this rate, we’ll all become pets raised by robots! If we add Quantum Computers to human brains and install mechanical prosthetics, everyone can become superheroes!"
