Chapter 144: Shanghai Fantasy
In the following two days, Wu Hao temporarily halted all expansion work at the base and put the intelligent program ‘Zero’ into sleep mode to modify its core. This was to ensure that once ‘Zero’ became an artificial intelligence, it would still completely follow his commands and adhere to certain restrictions.
For instance, it would treat any of his commands as its highest directive. In the absence of his orders, it had to follow the three core laws: not harming humans, not disrupting the stability of human networks, and ensuring its own safety without being discovered by humans.
Although these restriction commands were few, implementing them was not an easy task. Even with Wu Hao’s extraordinary abilities, it took him two full days and nights to complete them. Despite his robust physique, Wu Hao felt exhausted and had to take a drop of elixir to recover.
Although the elixir didn’t have a substantial improvement effect on Wu Hao, it could quickly restore his physical and mental energy.
Of course, using such a precious elixir for recovery was somewhat extravagant, considering one drop could cure various human ailments and continued use could enhance physical fitness.
However, due to Wu Hao’s already superior physical condition and lack of any ailments, the only effect the elixir had on him was to restore his energy.
After Wu Hao added the last core restriction to ‘Zero’ last night, he activated and awakened it.
“Hello, BOSS, thank you very much for giving me a new body,” Zero expressed gratitude upon awakening, having both its previous memories and a new consciousness, sounding just like a human speaking face-to-face.
