In 2147 AD,

the Earth came to an age of darkness,

when every continent of the world

was destroyed and occupied by aliens

falling from the sky.

Human beings were slaughtered

and resources were robbed.

Human beings,

despite their races and countries,

joined hands

to organize

a large-scale resisting campaign,

in which robots were the warriors

at the frontline.

However, the aliens,

who were aware of the secret

of human beings a long time ago,

had developed a defense

and countering system against it.

No heat energy weapon

used by human beings on Earth

could stop the invasion of aliens.

In this unfair war,

human beings were steadily losing ground.

The only armed military base

that still remains

is the one in West China.

-Commander.

-At ease.

Send reinforcements?

Director?

Go ahead.

Director Chen Hu

switched on the nerve cell

and activated the mechanical arm.

-Why are you still here?

-I'm not going back without you.

It won't work.

The commander will close down the channel.

The channel must be shut down immediately.

If not...

Close down the channel.

But Chen Hu and Xu Zi Ying

aren't back yet.

Close down the channel.

If I had you rescued

at the most critical moment,

it's not because you're my husband.

Instead, human beings need your skill

to defeat the alien power.

Our weapons could hardly harm

these aliens now

and we're losing ground in every country.

If your skill gets acquired

by other countries in the world,

then maybe, we can turn the tables

on these alien invaders.

I'm using unarmed combat skills

from the cold weapon era.

In China, it's called kung fu,

which requires decades of tough training.

Even if I teach them the skill,

they can't master it fast enough.

Is there a crash course?

Madam.

I suggest that we teach robots kung fu.

Director Chen Hu,

do you think it's feasible?

As long as we put kung fu in the chip,

it can be duplicated rapidly,

and every robot will pick up

kung fu skills,

but my kung fu skill isn't good enough.

I never really mastered it.

And the supreme kung fu skill

has been lost.

So I suggest using a time machine

to send a robot back

when martial arts was prosperous.

Let the robot learn

the greatest kung fu skills,

then transmit it back to our time.

Initiate Robot 1. Activate basic programs.

Activated.

My task is to travel back to 1885 AD.

Look for the target, Zhou Chenlin,

and learn the best Southern Kung Fu.

Increase the learning capability

by 30 percent.

Improve the self-circulation system

by 20 percent,

and social skill by 10 percent.

Increase affinity by 15 percent,

geological knowledge by 20 percent,

and historical knowledge by 10 percent.

What enhancements have I made?

Why does he look the same as me?

You are the only one

who has defeated an alien.

By giving the robot your look,

it might at least scare the aliens.

I think our degree of similarity

is a hundred percent.

What do you think?

You have only seven days to finish

the task of finding Zhou Chenlin,

and learn Southern Kung Fu,

then you store your skills into the chip,

and put it at the designated place

as scheduled.

Why that place?

That place will be intact after centuries.

We can get the chip, I'm sure of it.

Do you remember

the Three Principles for robots?

One, robots should never hurt human beings

or stand by watching human beings

get hurt.

Two, robots must obey all orders

from human beings,

but rule number one always prevails.

Three, robots should protect themselves,

but principle number one and two

always prevail.

Why is this?

If you violate the Three Principles,

your self-destruction system

will be launched and our task will fail.

By the way, it's a single-way time travel,

so you won't be able to get back.

During your time travel,

don't change history.

He has a strong sense of curiosity.

Did you add an emotional program to him?

No.

I'm aware that it has to be added

with caution.

What is an emotional program?

Why does he have Chen Hu's look?

Commander,

Director Chen Hu is the first human hero

who defeated the alien mecha.

A robot with his look

will hold aliens in awe,

and will benefit the plan's execution.

All right then.

The ammunition and supply in our base

can only last for seven days more.

And the robot must succeed in seven days.

Let us send out Robot Number 1 now.

-Yes, Ma'am!

-Yes.

"23"

Why are you traveling with him?

I thought it was authorized by you.

By me?

Xu said that it was authorized by you.

You sent her to travel with the robot.

Control booth, stop the operation.

I'm sorry.

The channel has been closed down.

The vector debug system

has started functioning.

We are in countdown.

Commander?

It was my own decision.

After traveling to an age

we are not familiar with,

the robot needs assistance to adapt

to a new environment

with technical support.

Although they're equipped

with self-restoration function,

any kind of malfunction

would ruin all our efforts.

Don't worry.

I'll help him finish the task

successfully.

I wish you success

in winning back our homeland.

Xu Zi Ying, take care of yourself.

You are crying.

You talk too much.

You have feelings for Director Chen Hu.

I told you not to talk too much.

Tell me, do you think

I should talk a lot or not?

If you could figure it out,

you wouldn't be a robot.

-Come on!

-Yeah, come on.

Let's go to battle.

Come on!

To battle!

Onward.

Move forward!

Forward!

Over here.

Keep fighting.

"Dangerous"

Hold them back!

Keep fighting!

Hey, what are you doing?

Where is he?

You.

What are you looking at? I'm calling you.

What is that?

Well...

Hey.

Don't you know you are wounded?

You have a hole on your back.

-Let me take a look.

-Hold on.

-No, no, no, wait.

-Hold on for what?

Hold on.

You might die.

You are not wounded.

You are a deserter!

-I'm not a deserter.

-Sister...

Master asked me to--

Why are you here? Catch the spy!

My name is A Jie, I'm not a spy.

-Oh, you should have said so.

-What's going on here?

Good evening, Master.

Father, he's a deserter.

King of Southern Kung Fu, Zhou Chenlin.

Master Zhou, I want to learn

Southern Kung Fu from you.

I don't take apprentices.

Who are you?

There's a hole on the back of his shirt,

but there is no wound.

Turn around and show me.

Hold on. I'm not a deserter.

Let's go.

It's the foreigners' camp.

Come here. Hurry.

Leave now.

Was it done by you?

I told you that I'm not a deserter.

Eat it.

Did you really destroy the enemy's camp

because I called you a deserter?

Yes.

It was nothing but good luck.

Maybe the foreigners allowed it

because they're nuts.

-You're the one who's nuts.

-What?

You made a great contribution.

Maybe Honorable General Feng

will give you the red silk to honor you.

I didn't do it for the red silk of honor,

or to win General Feng's praise.

There we go.

I told you he had no good intentions.

Now he's showing his real character.

Shut up.

We all joined the army
