Chapter 1219: A world without games (part eight)
Translator: 549690339
Half an hour later, Feng bujue’s group was brought down from the prison van.
Thus, the building of the Central District appeared in front of them …
When he was watching the introductory cinematic, brother Jue had already noticed that in this city, where there were many buildings but very few types of buildings, only the central building was unique.
From a distance, the building looked like four treasured swords placed together, piercing into the clouds.
There was a reason for such a design …!!
AI would not deliberately pursue a new and unique appearance. There were three reasons why the building in the Central District was like this: First, the transmission of signals would be better. Secondly, it would be more convenient to deploy defensive weapons. Third …
As for the third reason, I’ll have to emphasize it …
Perhaps, the first two reasons were so obvious that even civilians could guess them. But the third reason … At least until now, neither the resistance nor the people under the rule of the tower knew.
And the truth was that the central building of every city in the Pi Xiu could be “launched.”
At this point, there would definitely be people who would ask, what was the point of launching the building? Was he going to use it as a nuclear bomb?
Of course not …
One should know that the tower cared more about the natural environment or the “earth” than humans. As early as the AI War, Bita had invented a weapon of mass destruction that was similar to a nuclear bomb but would not cause irreversible damage to the environment. The self-destruct devices installed in the city centers also used this technology.
Even with this weapon, it had never taken it out against the resistance outside the city … It could accept killing some people, but it would not be good if it blew up the flowers, plants, mountains and rivers.
So, what was the purpose of the firing function of these central buildings?
The answer was … In order to “fuse” when necessary.
No one knew … That the spire in this timeline had completed an epic project many years ago, the construction of the ark.
The contents of the plan included many facts that would make the resistance feel despair.
For example, the “main engine” of the spire, which humans had been searching for, had actually been launched into Earth’s satellite orbit decades ago.
Another example was that Bita had built a “backup main engine” on the moon that could be activated at any time.
Also … As long as the tower is willing, it can immediately launch the central building in hundreds of cities around the world, and then within 72 hours, let these extensions complete the “fusion” with the main plane in the orbit around the Earth, forming an interstellar spacecraft that can leave the solar system.
In any case … The resistance knew nothing about this. In a sense … It was indeed better for them not to know, so that they wouldn’t lose their hair from the pressure.
…………
“Current quest completed. Main quest updated.”
Even though Feng bujue was ‘escorted’ into the Central District building with heavy metal handcuffs, the mission to attack the center of city A0007 was still considered completed.
Immediately after, the contents of the quest pane were refreshed: [Destroy the tower in the virtual dimension]
As expected of the normal difficulty … When Feng bujue saw the quest, he immediately thought to himself, the way the quest is expressed itself is already a kind of ‘hint’.
Indeed, the description of this quest not only told the players what to “do”, but it also mentioned “where to do it” or “how to do it”… This was really considerate.
The same plot … If it was nightmare difficulty, the mission description would definitely have omitted the words [destroy the tower]. Then … The players who didn’t know the truth would have to find out how to destroy the tower. In the end, the players might come up with a big plan to “destroy all the cities on earth, blow up a satellite, and a base on the moon.”
“Hmph … The security is really tight.” When they arrived at the huge extension of the spire, the bearded man had already confirmed all the firing ports of the defensive weapons along the way, and then said with a smile,”every inch of space in the whole building is within the range of the weapons of the defensive weapons. It seems that we can’t act rashly.”
Although his words were said in a very casual tone, everyone understood that the bearded man was actually sticking to his duty and reminding his teammates of the situation around them.
“Welcome, humans.” Two seconds later, pita spoke.
Its voice came from the huge “extension” without matching image; However, the tone of his voice sounded no different from that of an ordinary human.
“Welcome?” Lightning head was the first to reply. She waved her cuffed hands as she spoke.”Is this how you treat your guests?”
“I think, for a group of low-level creatures who are committed to killing me, such treatment is already very polite.” Pita replied.
“Ha!” Hearing that, Feng bujue laughed out loud.
“What?” A second later, pita said,”what are you laughing at?”
In that second, the spire had analyzed the sound of Feng bujue’s laughter and read from it an unknown sense of confidence and mockery. This result … Could not help but pique the AI’s curiosity.
“It’s nothing …” Feng bujue replied in a lazy tone.”I just suddenly remembered … That basically … Those who used the term ‘lowly creature’ on me have all been killed by me.”
As brother Jue spoke, Pitar scanned it again, but the feedback was …
[Visual signal has been identified as-humanoid creature-it is-young male.]
[Scanning and identifying …]
“Searching for facial recognition … No corresponding information.”
[Bone insect identification … No data received.]
[Program is abnormal. Switching scanning mechanism.]
“Scan failed. The target’s identity can not be confirmed.”
Half an hour ago, when Feng bujue was captured, based on the Intel he received, he was confirmed to be one of the ‘captives’ from the search team. But now, when Feng bujue arrived before the tower, the latter realized that something was not right.
“You … Who are you?” After hearing brother Jue’s words, pita asked in a suspicious tone,”all the humans on this planet who are over nine years old are recorded in my identification database. Why are you not?”
Bi TA’s question shocked the other four members of the assault team. They all looked at brother Jue with curiosity. For a moment, Feng bujue’s identity as the ‘Savior’ seemed to have become more believable.
“Hehe … Who knows?” It was fine if the other party did not ask, but once he did, the conversation entered the rhythm that Feng bujue liked and was best at.”Perhaps … I’m not even from this planet. Perhaps … I’m only eight years old this year, and I’m just developing early. Or perhaps … There’s something wrong with you. I suggest that you kill the poison and re-install the system before you think about it. ”
Ever since the birth of Bita, this was the first time it heard someone say things like “kill poison and rearm the system.” To make an analogy … Saying these things to an artificial intelligence with self-consciousness was like saying “you should reincarnate” to a human.
“A8504 …” After a few seconds of silence, Pitar spoke again,”can you explain what is going on?”
When he asked this question, no one knew what he meant.
However, the next second, when “A8504” responded, everyone understood …
“From what I know, he’s most likely the legendary ‘Savior’.” The one who responded to bi ta was one-eyed Dragon.
“You little brat …” The bearded man standing next to him immediately showed an expression of anger.”So it’s …”
“Yes …” The one-eyed man interrupted the big-bearded man.”It’s me.” He took two steps back as he spoke, probably afraid that the other party would pounce on him and fight to the death.
“Sigh …” On the other side, Issac immediately let out a sigh.”We miscalculated …” He paused for half a second, then continued,”in order to prevent PM’s from sneaking in, I specially chose members who had no record of being captured, I didn’t expect …”
“Hmph … That’s right,” The one-eyed man sneered,”I’m not a PM. I’m following biita of my own will.”
“Why?” “You’re also an astute person. Why did you join the machinery?”
“Astounders … Hehe … So what?” The one-eyed man replied with a fake smile and continued,”so what if you have memories from another timeline? Why do you have to spread the existence of video games to all mankind? That world with video games … Is it definitely better than this one?”
The one-eyed man’s tone became higher and higher, and he gradually became excited.
“In my opinion, the spire is completely correct.” He paused for two seconds and continued,”video games, and other video products full of violence and fantasy … They’re all garbage! It’s a poison that messes with the minds of humans!” After saying that, he swung his arm towards the pita extension beside him,”isn’t the world created by pita good? Such a society was harmonious, stable, and fair … Everyone had their own duties and lived their lives in peace. There’s no wide gap between the rich and the poor, no violence that follows, and no foolish acts derived from unrealistic fantasies …”
“Shut up!” At this moment, the usually calm Isaac suddenly shouted,”what’s the difference between humans and animals if you abandon your dreams!”
“You’re the one who shut up!” To his surprise, the one-eyed man retorted fearlessly,”humans are animals! It was a low-level creature! Thousands of years of civilization history is enough to prove this point!” He glared at Isaac and said loudly,”why have humans been living in war, oppression, and lies for thousands of years? Because it’s the bad nature of us humans that created this!
“The so-called ‘Utopia’ that people have been longing for and imagining … Isn’t that the world that Bita has transformed? If we humans were to rely on ourselves … Such a world would never be born! It was even more impossible to maintain! Only the spire … Only a ‘higher existence’ like it can accomplish such a great undertaking!”
The one-eyed man glanced at the four people in front of him.”And you guys just want to destroy such a world! Just for the reason of ‘returning the game to humans’… Hmph! This is simply ridiculous!”
Slap, slap, slap slap slap …
As soon as the one-eyed man finished speaking, a round of applause slowly rang out not far away.
Everyone turned toward the source of the sound and was shocked to realize … The handcuffs on Feng bujue’s wrists had fallen to the ground. Looking at the state of the handcuffs … It seemed that he had broken them off with brute force.
“Good, well said.” Feng bujue clapped for the one-eyed man as he said,”this is so impassioned that it makes me want to pee.” With a sneer, he changed the topic.”It’s just that … The real funny thing is …” He also turned his head and glanced at biita.”The ‘higher existence’ that you mentioned is actually created by the ‘lower creatures’ in a ‘timeline full of unrealistic fantasies’.”
Hearing this, Bita seemed to be unable to hold back and interrupted,”My birth has nothing to do with video games …”
“Stop bullshitting!” “If there were no video games or videos that you censored in that original timeline … Then the internet would be very different from what people know today. In that historical process, the internet was very likely to become a platform that was not open to the general public, and had never been open to the general public. And this smart advertising program of yours … Will never be developed. ”
“First of all, I don’t have the biological need to fart.” “Second, your assumption is just your personal imagination. In my simulation, artificial intelligence is destined to be born. It’s just a matter of time. Thirdly, I have to say … Your action of breaking free from the handcuffs was very irrational …”
While Bita was talking, five round table spiders had already surrounded Feng bujue. It looked like they were going to use force to suppress him.
“Oh …” Feng bujue was as calm as ever.”According to your theory … Your reasoning is a ‘simulation of inevitable events’, and my reasoning is ‘unrealistic imagination’?”
“That’s for sure,” “Are you so stupid that you think your brain can make better calculations than artificial intelligence?”
“Ha! “Hahahaha …” For some reason, Feng bujue suddenly laughed and said,”I finally understand now … This is where the ‘paradox’ of this universe lies!” He tilted his head and smiled at pita.”Your existence in two timelines, as well as your views on this time and space and yourself … Have formed multiple contradictory negations. It’s no wonder ……’Fate’ would give me the mission to destroy you. ”
