5 years later.
"Haa, my birthday is finally over. I can get some rest now." I thought aloud to myself upon entering and shutting the door to my room.
Alone and ready to chill for a bit, I collapsed on my bed, got settled into a nice comfy position, and started relaxing. Unknowingly, less than a minute in I got so relaxed I fell asleep and took a short but pleasant nap and when I eventually awoke, I continued lying in bed, letting my mind wander. At some point, I had the idea to go over my progress to see how I've done the past several years.
It's been a good number of years since I last gone over what I've accomplished and considering I'm resting and not doing a single thing at this very moment, I might as well do it now. Hmm, where to start... I suppose I can start off with what I've designed over the years, and as soon as I cover that I can move on to other stuff like my current physical abilities and what not.
To begin, I've completed the worker bot design I started way back on my first day of school as well as its Artificial Intelligence software. The design is basically a six-foot tall metal human skeleton covered head to toe in modular armor that can be easily and rapidly replaced when damaged. As for the name of the design, I was stuck on what to name it for a while, but I eventually settled on simply naming the robot design Multibot.
The reason I named it that is pretty obvious. First, the robot is designed to be a do it all robot and can do just about anything any normal human could do. Hence why it's named as such, although in my case they'll mostly be used for combat, manufacturing, and general labor.
For the second reason, well I couldn't come up with anything better so instead of wasting further time on trying to come up with marginally better names when I could be better using my energy on more productive things, I just went with Multibot because it fit the robot model well enough.
Other than finishing that robot design in these last several years, I also designed another two and modified a pre-existing design that I obtained in my knowledge acquisition. The first of those designs being a tracked Hauling Bot, I specially designed to haul thousands of pounds of material or cargo on its cargo bed. The second design is a mining bot called Prospectron, that can scan and mine the many resources that lay within the earth with its assortment of inbuilt tools.
And the last design is the preexisting one I modified slash upgraded, a combat oriented robot called a Sentinel. It was originally a large tracked heavy combat robot that either normally came equipped with a 5.56mm minigun and a four tubed 80mm rocket pod or a gatling laser and a four tubed 80mm rocket pod.
What I did to the design was, I improved its mobility by replacing the tracks with heavily armored legs, making it a bipedal robot, thereby improving the amount of places it can travel in with relative ease. Alongside that, I upped the armor on it significantly to bring it in line with the heavily armored legs I added, replaced both arm weapons with gatling lasers, and placed a mounting point on each shoulder for missile launchers and missile pods. Though many different weapons can be fitted there, such as more miniguns and gatling lasers.
However, in my case, missile pods will be mounted there instead simply because it gives the robot the ability to take down aerial targets with lock-on missiles. Not to mention the fact that there is a wide selection of different missile types that I can take advantage of, like swarm missiles, for instance. Which I'll for sure be abusing in the future to eliminate swaths of enemies and bombard expansive areas in an instant if the need arises.
In addition to the armament upgrades I made to the design, I replaced the fusion core with a fusion breeder core, getting rid of its need for refueling. I also went ahead and upgraded a number of components in the design to compensate for the additional weight and upgraded the artificial intelligence software. Last but not least, I added emp shielding like I did with every one of my robot designs to prevent it from being taken out by emp grenades and other electromagnetic pulse weapons.
