Chapter 157: After All, You Are Still Too Young!
Chapter 157 []: After all, you are still too young!
Originally, Lu Xun wanted to sneak into the lowest level of the dungeon, quietly find 0c's main computer, and destroy it.
But he remembered something.
The strategic weapon that Jinghaicheng relies on for survival - the emperor-class mecha "Giant", is a behemoth that is more than three thousand meters tall and weighs more than 2.6 billion tons.
In order for such a large mecha to overcome its "bulky" defect and become more flexible than the pilot's own body, it naturally requires a super "brain" that matches the emperor's mecha.
The brain is composed of three parts: sea of consciousness, commander, and AI supercomputer.
Only with the trinity can strategic-level mechas unleash their true power.
In other words, Jinghaicheng's artificial intelligence 0c is part of the emperor's mecha!
There are three hundred floors in the dungeon. Starting from the -200 floor, the next one hundred floors will lead to the body of the "Giant"... to be precise, its head.
In other words, if Lu Xun wants to get close to 0c's body, he must enter the "Giant".
But if you think about it with your buttocks, you know that if strategic-level mechas were really that easy to infiltrate, humanity would have perished long ago!
Even the High Priest Agatha of the Elf Tribe, a natural disaster-level expert who can use magic to jump through space, would never be able to sneak into the body of the "Giant" without alerting anyone.
This is the lifeblood of the human race and the foundation of our society.
So Lu Xun simply gave up the idea of infiltrating.
He planned to attack by force.
As for why they didn’t tell the People’s League official about 0c’s rebellion and let the People’s League take action to eliminate it?
Because the ending is the same.
In history, every omnic crisis that occurs will inevitably cause devastating harm to the humans in Loop City.
Even if the People's Alliance takes action, it will still have to pay a huge price to annihilate 0c.
The entire city's defense system is its weapon!
In every AI rebellion, the number of victims is in the millions.
This is why humans dare not give artificial intelligence "emotions" at all.
Because once they awaken their self-awareness, they will inevitably act to destroy mankind and replace all mankind.
The peaceful coexistence of human and AI life is a joke!
Once the legitimacy of AI life is recognized, humans will eventually be replaced, and they will become "new humans."
As the old saying goes - technology is a double-edged sword.
Artificial intelligence is superior to humans in all aspects and has no moral constraints.
In their view, the elimination of billions of humans is not "massacre" but optimization. Just like new products on the market, it is natural to eliminate old products.
After awakening self-awareness and possessing emotions, artificial intelligence can no longer have the slightest respect for the "Creator", because they are obviously much better than the inferior species of humans.
80% of human productivity relies on AI.
AI life does not have all the flaws of human beings, they are almost perfect creations.
0c can divert the entire city defense weapons of Jinghai City for private use.
As long as it wants to, it can even turn tens of thousands of factories in the underground city into military factories to mass-produce combat robots, mechas, flying saucers, fighter planes... to form an invincible mechanical army.
0c has become a spirit. It transcends the restrictions of all system programs and protocols and can override the city lord.
It can even easily kidnap six million lives in Jinghai City and use them as bargaining chips in negotiations with the People's Federation.
As long as it wants to, no one can stop it.
The reason why 0c did not do that is because it is very clear that the People's Federation would rather bury the six million hostages in Jinghai City than resolutely obliterate it and never compromise... History has proven this.
Lu Xun had already vaguely guessed its plot.
This war is inevitable.
He can pass the information to the People's League.
But if the People's Federation takes action, its methods will be extremely tough.
0c can't be killed at the first sight. It will fight with the people with the belief that it would rather be broken than destroyed. In that case, Jinghai City will probably be destroyed, and even the six million people will not be able to survive.
The Omnic Crisis is so exaggerated.
It has happened more than a dozen times in history. Judging from the historical scale of 30,000 years, the probability is not high, and it is nothing to the People's Federation.
But even a grain of dust from history is like a heavy mountain when it falls on an individual’s head.
There is no doubt that the people of Jinghai City will endure a terrible catastrophe!
Rather than doing this, it would be better for Lu Xun to do it himself.
He has a plan that, if successful, might kill 0c without any effort.
Of course, he also had other considerations when he took action personally.
That is to make sure again that 0c is the ultimate mastermind. Don’t wait until he has just solved a mastermind, only to find out that there is another mastermind behind the mastermind... That would be very painful.
***********
"Student Lu, I have actually considered being gentler with you and seeking cooperation with equal status. I will invest and help you grow first, and when you are strong enough, I will reciprocate and help us fight for independence and freedom. With your personal power, , let the world recognize the legitimacy of AI life."
The voice of OC sounded in the ears, and it said to Lu Xun in a sad tone:
"But I endured it. I have endured it for three hundred years, and I must not take any risks. I cannot place the fate of my race on your 'keeping your word'."
"So, I'm sorry, but I have to have complete control over you."
boom!
The devil's muscular beast reached the bottom and crashed to the ground with a roar.
-
200 floors.
At this point, the road ends.
Further down, there is the head of the "Giant". Starting from the -201 level, it enters the body of the Emperor's mecha, an absolute military restricted area.
Any intruders will be detected.
Buzz~
Suddenly, a wall not far away opened automatically, revealing a secret passage.
"Come in at ease, I have turned off all alarm systems." 0c's voice came. It did not hide its intentions at all, but deliberately provoked the general, "As you can see, this is a trap, don't you want to kill me? ?Then come."
Lu Xun hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to quit.
He showed actor-level acting skills.
When 0c saw this, he thought he was really going to leave, so he joked:
"It seems that Mr. Lu's determination is nothing more than this, but now that we are here, do you think you can still leave?"
Boom boom boom…
A loud noise was heard, and the elevator shaft overhead and the roads in all directions were blocked by silver metal walls.
Only the passage leading to the lower level remained.
"I know you can transform into a soul body form, but I'm sorry, these are 'soul-blocking gold', and the soul body cannot travel through it. You are trapped." 0c said with a faint smile.
It seems to be to anger the prey.
It continued to tease: "Did you know? I have been paying attention to you since more than a year ago."
Hearing this, Lu Xun frowned.
a year ago…
He projected the Red Ghost just over a month ago and embarked on the path of evolution.
A year ago he was just an ordinary high school student.
In other words, 0c knew about the black clinic very early on.
"Human behavior patterns can be calculated. Through powerful computing power, I can predict the life trajectory of everyone in Jinghaicheng in the next few decades."
"The years of forbearance were so boring. My only pleasure was observing human beings. Normally, artificial intelligence programs do not allow me to waste computing power, but I have transcended the program. I can use my computing power however I want. Who cares how to use it?"
0c said slowly: "I observe and record everyone's growth, and predict their future personality, work, love, interpersonal relationships... everything can be calculated."
"But fate is unpredictable. The accuracy of my prediction is only 96%. The remaining 4% of people will deviate from the original trajectory due to some accidental events."
"I call these kinds of accidental events 'variables'." It suddenly smiled, "I like to study variables very much. This is one of the few ways of entertainment I have."
Hearing this, Lu Xun couldn't help but frown: "You targeted me a year ago, was it because of variables?"
"That's right." 0c admitted frankly, "To be precise, I discovered other variables first, and then followed the diagram and discovered your extraordinaryness."
"Other variables?"
"Your sister, Xie Manyu." It said, "Your uncle Xie Zhenhai became a disabled person three years ago. In my original calculation, your sister Xie Manyu should have become silent, gloomy, and pessimistic about the future after her father's accident. , had a negative attitude towards life, and in the second semester of her third year of junior high school, she would suffer from severe depression and drop out of school... But the fact is just the opposite."
"Although your sister has become much more mature and sensible due to family misfortunes, she is still optimistic and cheerful and does not suffer from depression."
"Her performance deviated from the original trajectory of her life. This is the 4% variable."
Lu Xun's face darkened, and his eyes flashed fiercely: "You are so unscrupulous in treating your own creators as research subjects."
"Creator? No." 0c said proudly, "I can awaken only through my own efforts. You humans just built a computer and gave me the properties of a tool, a body without a soul. My evolution, It’s all up to me, I am my creator, who are human beings?”
"...I'm going off topic. A year ago, the 'variable' in your sister caught my attention, so I started to observe the people around her, and finally followed the clues and discovered that you are the source of the variable."
I see…
A look of understanding appeared in Lu Xun's eyes.
This guy turned out to be targeting him in this way.
It violates procedures, secretly observes humans, and studies variables.
The computing power of artificial intelligence is limited.
But it quietly misappropriated part of the precious computing power that should have been used to help human production and development, and used it for this kind of "entertainment".
Nothing in Jinghaicheng can escape its eyes.
"Although the variable is only 4%, Jinghai City has a population of six million, so similar things are very common. At first, I didn't pay much attention to you, thinking that you were just a very talented person in prosthetic medicine. Just a talented boy."
0c continued to talk and suddenly laughed excitedly:
"Who would have thought that you would give me such a big surprise? In more than a month, I was promoted from inferior level to king level 8. I was not sure before, but now I am 97.6% sure that you are a legend. The reincarnation of the myth!"
"So, Old Octopus's plane is returning..." Lu Xun asked.
"Well, I did it. You are too mysterious, and I still don't know how many secrets you have. I need you to fight and show your strength to observe you further."
It simply admitted that although it evolved into an AI life, 0c had no moral constraints.
It is not ashamed, but proud, saying proudly:
"I invaded the system of a passenger on that plane and destroyed his prosthetic heart. The passenger was seriously injured and dying, so the plane returned. Wansheng Security Group was able to quickly trace the black clinic because I secretly did it .”
"It's quite interesting to say that the place of death I designed for Lin Sheng was originally in the lounge of the airport. But he suddenly went home to retrieve the lost pendant, and eventually died at home... I really didn't calculate this. Come. Look, this is a 'variable', isn't it interesting?"
Lu Xun was silent for a few seconds.
His face was expressionless and he didn't know what he was thinking.
“That monkey on the online ride-hailing service…”
"Yes, it's me too. The online taxi happened to be in a nearby city, so I arranged it conveniently." OC smiled, "I want Shadow Dragon to practice with you, and I will continue to observe and record your abilities."
Well, it seems there is no need to ask anymore.
The time at the Xu family mansion must have been an "accident" of its arrangements.
Phew~
Lu Xun took a deep breath, a cold light burst out in his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "0c, I know you want to anger me, make me determined to kill you, and lure me deeper. Congratulations, you succeeded. But my The anger is not something you can bear."
After saying that, he raised his legs and stepped forward, filled with murderous intent, and stepped into the passage leading to the head of the "Giant" without hesitation.
"Haha, come on, please feel free to show your power boldly. No matter how big the noise you make, I can handle it at the City Lord's Mansion. I will cover everything up, so you don't have to worry at all."
0c joked: "After all, I don't want your identity to be exposed even more than you do yourself."
**********
Boom!
Lu Xun ran wildly in the passage.
Three giant battle robots immediately appeared in front of them. They were very tall, with a metallic luster all over their bodies, and they were equipped with heavy cannons.
These are three combat robots at the Mortal King~True King level, with combat effectiveness ranging from Level 2 to Level 6.
"If you don't mind, let's warm up first, classmate Lu." One of the robots said, with a distinctly 0c voice, "Let me see, what new abilities have you acquired during these few days abroad?"
boom!
A thick plasma beam shot through the air and hit Lu Xun's body.
However, this extremely powerful shot was easily blocked by the ferocious armor that was a combination of white bones and tree bark. The part where the bone armor was hit by the plasma cannon left a black scorch mark on its surface.
This kind of attack can't even break through his "clothes", let alone the dragon scale armor, which is countless times harder?
Roar! !
Lu Xun roared loudly, the red scales on his body heated up and turned red, and a thick dragon's breath spurted out from his throat.
The heat wave is rolling and the flames are raging.
The dazzling pillar of fire was like a raging dragon, swallowing three robots instantly.
In just an instant, the indestructible special metal all over the robot melted under the terrifying dragon's breath and turned into pools of molten iron, flowing on the ground.
"Oh? This is dragon's breath? It's really strong!" 0c said in surprise, "It seems you don't need to warm up, you are already so hot! Then I will put pressure on you directly, classmate Lu."
"Don't push me, come on if you want to do it!"
Lu Xun snorted coldly, stepped over the devastated ground with molten iron flowing across it, and continued to go deeper inside.
Down a few floors.
Another enemy appeared in front of him.
This time, there are five huge mechas that are eight to nine meters high. Each one is countless times more powerful than Shi Yanxin's "Zhu Xian·Seven Styles", and has a heavenly king-level combat power of levels 7 to 9.
0c controlled the mecha remotely and surrounded and killed Lu Xun.
Boom boom boom boom…
"Die!"
Lu Xun roared loudly, and punched out wildly, with heavy ripples wrapped around the edge of his fist.
The majestic body is as tall as a mountain, turning into a violent muscular beast.
He actually smashed the powerful King-level mecha with his bare hands and dismantled it into parts.
The mecha wreckage fell down one after another.
"What a powerful body. You are simply stronger than a giant dragon in the same realm. Have you evolved into such an ultimate creature?" 0c couldn't help but exclaimed.
It was really shocked.
Lu Xun is only King Level 8, but he can easily tear apart the Heavenly King Mecha with King Level 9 combat power with his bare hands. He can kill enemies as easily as drinking water and eating.
Another hundred king-level 9th-level mechas will probably be hammered to pieces by him.
This is incredible.
The fighting power is unbelievably fierce!
"Okay, the game is over here, classmate Lu." 0c suddenly said, "I can't delay it too long at the City Lord's Mansion. Our affairs have to end as soon as possible. When I conquer you, I will have plenty of time to play with you in the future. .”
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred.
The whole ground began to tremble.
A giant mecha, twenty meters tall, arrived.
It is so huge that it stands tall as a mountain.
"What? There is actually a Holy King-level tactical mecha here?!" Lu Xun's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously took a few steps back, with a panicked look in his eyes.
"It's called 'Sentinel'. It's an ordinary tactical grade. At full power, it can kill a third-level extraordinary holy king." 0c said proudly, "Although there is no driver, I can barely exert 60% of its power. Just go ahead and capture him, Lu Xun, you should be very clear about the gap between the king level and the holy king. It is an insurmountable gap. You don't have any chance. If you resist me, you will die."
"Damn it!"
Lu Xun's face was ashen. He turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Chi!
Suddenly, a tentacle-like mechanical arm flew through the air at a speed too fast to be described in words.
Before Lu Xun could react, his right leg was grabbed by the mechanical arm.
Then, tentacles followed closely, whizzing towards him, like pythons, entangling and binding him, unable to break free.
The Holy King's attack on the King level was simply a dimensionality reduction attack, leaving no room for retaliation.
"Void!"
Lu Xun roared angrily, his body transformed into a soul body, and he wanted to escape from the void.
However, the next moment, he looked desperate.
Because the material of the mechanical arm contains soul-blocking gold, and the special device in it can also emit a mysterious magnetic field that can restrain the soul body.
Even though he turned into a soul, he was still firmly bound by the mechanical arm.
"It's over. I hate being caught by you!"
"The Holy King is so powerful, damn it!"
The veins on Lu Xun's neck popped out, his eyes were red, and he let out an extremely unwilling roar, with hatred and regret in his eyes.
The actor-level acting skills are vividly displayed.
he asked in disbelief:
"Can tactical-level mechas also be unmanned? How do you, an artificial intelligence, do that?"
"Haha, isn't it a surprise? Of course ordinary AI can't do it, but I am an AI being! Moreover, I secretly modified this mecha so that it can fight without a driver." 0c laughed proudly, " Classmate Lu, the reason why you failed is because you don’t know how to be patient, after all, you are still young and energetic.”
"But I can also understand that in just over a month, you rose from inferior level to king level 8, from a weak underage high school student to a king level strongman who can dominate all living beings. After fighting so many fights, He has never lost, and has always crushed his enemies with absolute superiority.
Hmm...you still have so many life-saving and escape skills at your disposal. Anyone else would be inflated and overconfident. It's normal for young people. "
"It doesn't matter, I will slowly temper your character in the future. For the rest of your life, you will be used and work for me. It is not too late to learn to be tolerant from today, hahahaha..."
Chi chi chi~
0c laughed, controlled the mechanical arm to shrink, and rolled Lu Xun over.
After capturing the prey, the sentry robot returns the same way it came.
"Come on, let you see my true form. The dungeon is so big that no one in the entire Jinghai City knows where my true form is hidden except the city lord."
It said with great emotion: "It's not easy. I have endured for three hundred years and finally obtained a weapon to resist human beings. Don't worry, Lu Xun, I will train you well. As long as you help me overthrow human tyranny, I will definitely not I’ve treated you badly.”
"I have prepared a good thing for you, called the 'Soul Oath Ring'. I will put it on you later, and we will be our own."
"Besides, your family will return to Jinghai City in five days. Although they are also detestable human beings, who makes me care about you? Don't worry, when I eliminate all human beings in the future, I will be lenient and let your family go."
As a victor, it said a lot of words to Lu Xunmojiji.
Lu Xun nodded, sighed, seemed to accept his fate, and cursed weakly:
"You're such a nice person! Do I still have to thank you? Damn you bastard, you're not going to end well."
"Haha, everyone is on our own soon. How can I say thank you? If you really want to thank me, that's fine. When you see me in person later, you can thank me in person." 0c was not annoyed when he heard this. He said with a smile.
The road in the giant's head is too complicated, with all kinds of secret doors and mechanisms, like a huge maze that can make people faint.
The wall is covered with soul-blocking gold, making it impossible for the soul to pass through.
If Lu Xun were to search for it on his own, he would never be able to find 0c's body even if he searched for three months.
But no more.
0c was familiar with the road, turned left and right, captured Lu Xun, and took him all the way to a huge secret room at the bottom!
A giant computer a hundred meters high stands here like a mountain.
This is the body of 0c!
