Sloan & Arty - The Boy and His Companion Bot | Part II

Day 01.png

Sloan gingerly pushed himself up with his palms when suddenly, his right palm dug into something sharp. “Ow!” He yelped in pain and withdrew his arm, only to see an AI chip. His curious streak impelled him to pick it up.

Abandoned AI chips from the New City was very commonly found but this chip was shiny, glistening with strange symbols. It pulsated a life of its own.

It might fetch a good price, Sloan thought to himself as he pocketed the AI chip. In the past there were days where he spent every waking hour rummaging through trash and yet finding nothing.

Today, he got lucky.

Dozens of years later and we still have rubbish dumps with recyclable items (chips) in them...not too much improvement, eh? 😛

@lilacse hehehe the story will unfold, hopefully subsequent parts give more clues! :P

Now wondering if a background intro is useful.

Remember that you can actually put in more intro whenever you need to if you know how to...lol. Just follow the plan you had, it will be great.

@lilacse Yes I am seriously considering a revamp of the presentation when I publish Part IV, just so that new readers won't be totally lost. (:

Once again, I appreciate all your feedback and ideas!! <3

what about bringing the Matthew to our blockchain? I guess his drawings would get some love here :)

Haha you voiced my thoughts! ((:

I have spoken to him a few times before about it 😂
he says he might not have time to invest in another site - but maybe I should promote share2steem more (since he's on IG).

I can sense that there's something quite magical about to sprout from this particular AI chip @joeylim.

Maybe a new tower that won't emit EMFs ~ Where the people will now be able to have all the benefits of modern technology without being subject to all the harm that the present EMFs are having. One can only HOPE. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎

@allyinspirit Matthew says he just got new ideas on how to develop the story further from reading your comment, so THANK YOU ((:

Indeed, we truly hope this world (and our world) gets better <3

Simple and cool) I like it.

@amalinavia aww thank you!! 😇

Nice beginning ! A discovery of a shiny chip :D And the drawing is really nice, too <3
