The Apocalyptic System
Working Bots
Kai Axe had no idea what the monkey was talking about, but he knew more or less of his movements.
The monkey seemed to be fighting a mountain lion or something. The way of squatting bears a remarkable resemblance to a person.
“You think a skinny monkey like you can beat something much bigger, eh? Just look at yourself. All pounded again “, comments Kai Axe while shaking his head.
Whatever beast the monkey fought against, there was no doubt that the monkey was a smaller human being.
The monkey raised his head high and looked stubborn, like telling Kai Axe that one of them had to go down by then, that he would go all-out without a break.
Kai Axe was really worried that the monkey would actually get killed someday, or at least get hurt bad enough that it couldn't see it.
“Alright then, I'll help you a little bit. He took out a small box, which he filled with body strengthening pills.
He took out a pill and gave it to the monkey.
The system tells him that animals can also take pills, and that works for them, including the one-time rule.
The monkey scratched his head and did not know what to make the pill, but as he got hungry, he took the pill and put it in his mouth.
After he finished chewing and swallowing, his eyes suddenly shone, jumping excitedly at the spot where he stood and looking as if the hair all over his body was shining.
The monkey then jumped into the river shortly afterwards. When it appears again, it has grown to about 160 centimeters, reaching the height of an adult human.
The brown-yellow hair had a lustrous shine, and its eyes glittered and brimmed, looking very different from its sick and weak state from before.
The monkey looked like something else and was as different as before.
Kai Axe saw that all of his wounds had healed, and there was not a single sign of any wounds left on his body. The monkey not only grew bigger, but also became more muscular and energetic.
The monkey kneeled on the ground excitedly and prostrated like a human being pleading.
Kai Axe was surprised by the move and immediately pulled his leg back.
The monkey scratched his head awkwardly before kowtowing back at him like he did before, then doing his screeches, seemingly trying to tell him something.
It was given that Kai Axe did not speak monkey language, but he was still able to tell from the creature's eyes that he seemed so grateful to him that he intended to survive from then on.
“Sure. I'm the boss, and you're my subordinate then “. Kai Axe patted the monkey's head.
The monkey was smart enough and obedient enough to lower his head, then put a stupid-looking smile on his face, looking very pleased with the treatment.
“Well, it doesn't feel like calling you”
Kai Axe thought for a second? I think I should give you a name. I should call you what..”.
Kai Axe rubbed his chin for a while, musing, before suddenly flicking his finger and adding with a grin, “Then, since you are a monkey and you are obviously intelligent, I will call you ”Goku" start now”.
She then closed her hands and said to the stars above, “Alright, Akira Toriyama-san, I hope you won't be angry with what I just did”.
“OK, if you don't say anything, I assume you're OK”.
(About Toriyama, “...”)
(Do you like it if I show up in front of you and tell you what I'm thinking?)
The monkey did not know what Kai Axe was saying, but he jumped up and down feeling very happy.
He then fried the eggs and gave some cooked noodles to the monkeys, which the monkeys continued to take the noodles with his hands and devoured them.
He checked his survival points after he finished eating. Seeing his total to 423 points, he felt he could buy something from the System Mall.
Among the cheap items found in the mall include some survival tools, medicines, and food. He would not spend points for them because he could buy them with money instead.
He saw the need to find something special.
He paid attention to the skill column, which contained all sorts of martial arts and survival skills, ranging from army combat, grappling techniques, fire-lighting skills in the wild, and some such. However, each item was worth more than 1,000 points, which was considered rather expensive.
It seemed to him that everything that had practical use cost over 1,000 points, with many costing up to 5,000 and even 10,000 points. Anything that cost less than 1,000 points was just a handful.
He then checked the column and saw a cheap sell sign, saying “Buy One, Get One Free” for only 300 points!
“Damn it! It was a once in a lifetime deal!
He clicked on it and found the item for sale was some kind of robot with a super Al system. It has a computing capacity so powerful that it is one trillion times more advanced than the most advanced quantum computers in existence. In addition, the robot has a fortitude that rivals tanks, a force that rivals elephants, and is equipped with an energy core that is specifically used. The robot was categorized as an everyday type smart bot.
“Sial, never expect the mall to actually have such sales. Buy one and get one for free! And best of all, the super bot only costs 300 points! The deal couldn't be better than this! “
He considered that his cargo would be greatly lightened with the help of two such robots, which he could be assigned to take care of the daily maintenance of the ship, its construction, and the transport of goods. There is no better workforce to be had anywhere.
“It would be stupid for me if I didn't pick it up immediately!”
Kai Axe directly clicked the “bui” button. It didn't take long for two robots resembling T-500 models from several science fiction movie franchises to appear before him. One is red, the other blue.
“Greetings, tuan”, the two robots greeted him flat, putting on a blank expression.
Kai Axe is very happy with both robots. They look very sci-fi and seem like very good stuff.
“True, this is your name. Worker-1 and Worker-2, “he said.
“Thank you tuan”, replied the two robots.
The red bot is called Worker-1 and the blue bot is Worker-2.
Kai axe smiled, feeling very satisfied with them.
There is nothing better than a diligent and honest day worker like them.
Kai Axe hopes that the two robots will play their roles as workers well, contributing selflessly and diligently.
Robots are capable of working all the time and do not need to rest.
In addition, they do not need pay, thus making them perfect workers.
However, he wondered why the System would sell such a robot for such a low price and two for the price of one on it.
He opened the description page, which had all the attributes, functions, and instructions for using the robot written in detail. He then saw two rows of fine prints at the very end.
[Robots are semi-finished products, which will continue to act strangely and foolishly under certain circumstances. Please be careful with usage.
The product cannot be returned under any circumstances.]
He was somewhat confused by those two fine print lines, surprised that the bot was actually half-finished.
“Now I know why they are sold! Acting strange and stupid under certain circumstances? Can they at least make a list of things to look out for then?”
“OK, System! I want to file a complaint!” he yelled.
“Ding! The system does not receive complaints! “
“I guess then I'll complain to myself..”.
Kai Axe didn't know what else to say.
“Alright, whatever. As long as they serve me well with their goals, I guess “, he lamented while shaking his head.
He wondered if the artificial intelligence of the two robots would indeed make them more advanced than modern-day computers.
“Worker-1, I think you two know how to craft a ship design according to my needs, right?” She asked.
“We can do it, sir. We are equipped with the most advanced and most complete design capability “, replied Worker-1. A computer screen was revealed as the metal plate on his chest opened.
He was happy to hear it, because it meant the bot could be the one taking care of the design of the ark.
