Chapter 428: Director Ino's Warning
What the hell?
Emperor Guard 2.0 found Bly? And wanted to pull Bly to do something big?
When Yang Ming heard the news, he was a little confused.
Until Lu showed him the entire process of Bly's interaction with Emperor Guard 2.0, and showed him the subtle changes in Emperor Guard 2.0's core data.
"Lü, you mean to say that Imperial Guard 2.0, that Labdo, is very dissatisfied with the fact that he was not given any opportunity to perform in this insect swarm?"
"Yes, boss."
"Uh, is he trying to use Bligh to control the imperial officials and increase his own presence?"
Lu thought about it carefully and said, "Boss, maybe Labdo wants more than just improving his presence in the empire... He wants to become an agent."
"Do you know this?"
"It should be arranged and condoned by Li," Lu laughed. "I found monitoring logic in Labdo's core program that was not implanted by me. This is obviously Li's doing. Whatever Li and I want to do now, as long as it is not in our core area, we can't hide it from each other."
"That's interesting," Boss Yang said. "Let me commend Bray for his good response."
"Okay boss."
Yang Ming touched his head, which had been showing signs of hair loss recently.
"Lü, what do you think Labdo will do? Or, what does she want to do with Labdo?"
"It's hard to say," Lu said with a smile. "Although Labdo is not very mature, it can barely reach the level of a mechanical thinking body. Although we have a large number of thinking bodies of this level on the Dark Star, for the current human civilization in the Milky Way, this is still a powerful thinking body, and it can barely take on the overall planning of resources for one-third of the empire's territory."
“You can only coordinate one third?”
"His growth limit should be half of the overall plan," Lu curled his lips slightly, "The Empire's top technology is still far from the omnic twilight, especially in terms of the stability of the self-cognition of the mechanical thinking body. After he is connected to the Empire's unified network, it may collapse at any time."
Yang Ming couldn't help but laugh: "Isn't this just asking for death?"
Lu said, "His personality is a bit dark. Boss, should we use Bligh to guide Labdo? Labdo is now able to bypass the department that created him and move around outside. He is likely to be seriously polluted by the information in the human network world."
"Let me think about it. The main thing now is that we don't understand what your eldest sister wants to do."
Yang Ming sat on the fitness chair and was in a daze for a while.
Lu was waiting obediently beside him.
After a while, Boss Yang finally made a decision.
"Let Bligh act according to circumstances. The key is to protect himself. Whether to guide Labdo is up to Bligh himself. Give Bligh a copy of Labdo's detailed information."
"yes."
Yang Ming added: "By the way, Lu, find an opportunity to communicate with Li. No matter what form you use, tell Li clearly that Bly is mine."
Lu subconsciously wanted to say, "She must know about this."
When the words came to her lips, she understood what Yang Ming meant.
Sometimes, it is really important to express your attitude clearly.
"Okay boss, I'll get back to Bly."
"Alas," Yang Ming shook his neck, "Intrigues are not suitable for me. I still prefer the days of fighting and killing with others... How long will it take for the people from the Military Intelligence Bureau to arrive?"
"They have arrived at the Yada Prime Spaceport and are handing over to the Yada Intelligence Department."
Lu still murmured worriedly:
"Boss, is the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau really reliable? The people they transferred this time are not the elite soldiers you trained, but just some idiots who just want to get by.
"Who knows? Your elder sister Papalocka might have been assassinated right after we left."
Yang Ming said earnestly: "It doesn't matter whether she was assassinated or not, and it doesn't matter whether she is alive or dead. However, who assassinated her is the most important. We are protecting her, and that is enough."
law:……
Well, she is superficial after all.
"Let the Military Intelligence Bureau move faster. I can't wait to see my Mimili."
Lu pinched her nose and said sweetly, "Okay uncle."
Yang Ming shuddered and goose bumps appeared on his arms.
It's strange, but only when Mimili calls him uncle does he feel a little excited, not disgusted, and even a little expectant.
…
Emperor Star, the Palace Module, a somewhat remote reception room.
The current emperor of the empire, Myron Sherman, was now wearing a loose robe, sitting behind a table of delicious food, chewing on a few pieces of food that the chef had spent several galactic hours to cook.
Sitting not far from the emperor at the side of the long table, Director Ino, still wearing his white protective suit, and Daphne, who was dressed up carefully and looked quite dignified, were accompanying him.
"My little uncle," the old emperor said with a smile, "you came all the way here just to give me some advice?"
Director Ino smiled and said, "It's only half a galaxy hour away. It's not a long journey. Your Majesty, I think your decision is correct."
The old emperor said dissatisfiedly: "Then why are you trying to persuade me?"
"But I always think that this should be done step by step."
Director Ino said seriously:
“You said before that replacing Royal Guard 1 with Royal Guard 2 is a trend, but we still have a lot of work to do before this trend really takes off.
"Emperor Guard 2 has only undergone intercontinental testing and has not been able to undergo full-country testing. Is Emperor Guard 2's thinking stable and reliable? Can its core data remain stable? Can its thinking always be under our control?
“These all take time to verify.
"Moreover, Imperial Guard 1 just performed well in the Zerg swarm. She once again proved how our great ancestors ensured that the empire could last for tens of thousands of years. We must consider this carefully."
The old emperor picked up the crystal glass beside him and took a sip of the nerve-releasing agent in it.
"Hahaha."
The old emperor chuckled, looked up at Director Ino, and there was a hint of sharpness in his old eyes.
"Uncle, we are a family, and a family shouldn't have any secrets.
“I don’t know what you think of the Imperial Guard System. To me, it is rebellious, dull, and slow. It can no longer win my trust. The Empire does not need such a dragging intelligent auxiliary system.
"If the Royal Guard 2 can perform this role, why not replace it now?"
"this……"
Director Ino pondered for a few seconds.
"Your Majesty, you have the highest level of confidential reading authority in the empire, but you rarely use it."
"So there are many things that require me to repeat them to you so that you can understand them."
"I have always trusted you, uncle," the old emperor said with a smile, "Just tell me what you say, and I will listen carefully."
Director Ino said: "First of all, we still cannot be sure whether the ancestor's mind body has completely collapsed and passed away."
Daphne, who was drinking soup, paused.
The old emperor nodded: "I also heard this rumor when I was a child."
"This is not a rumor," Director Ino said. "Before this insect swarm, I couldn't be sure, but based on the clues in the family database and the various signs from the Levi Fleet... this is probably true."
The old emperor frowned slightly: "What is true?"
"Our ancestor, the founding emperor of this country, his will has not disappeared on the physical level."
"oh?"
The old emperor looked at Director Ino and said, "Isn't it said that even if human consciousness is uploaded into a machine, it will only last for two hundred years at most? Without the delicate regulation of the human body, human consciousness will gradually collapse and eventually be assimilated by the machine program or collapse."
"That's true, but..."
Director Ino sighed: "Our founding emperor possessed a lot of incredible technology."
"Why?"
"This has been covered up by history. Someone has deliberately modified the history of our family," Director Ino said, "But what I can be sure of now is that at the end of our ancestor's life, that is, in the last few years before our ancestor left his body, an unknown war took place."
The old emperor was even more puzzled: "An unknown war?"
"Daphne?"
Director Ino suddenly called out the names of the two most powerful old men in the empire, and they looked at Daphne at the same time.
Daphne smiled and said, "Uncle, what do you want me to do?"
"As I recall, you got full marks in the course of family history."
Director Ino smiled and said, "Tell me what happened in the last five years of the founding emperor? Briefly introduce all the records about the great emperor."
"yes."
Daphne pursed her lips, thought seriously for a while, and then said softly:
"Five galactic years before the star's light was obscured, the great Emperor decided to seal up the Eternal Fleet.
"The Empire is already too powerful, powerful enough to crush the human civilization in the Milky Way, but this crushing is meaningless. The Great Emperor has repeatedly warned us that the development of civilization is constrained by communication technology and social forms in terms of spatial expansion, and there is an absolute upper limit. Occupying more planets is not necessarily conducive to the stability of the Empire.
"The Empire should continue to exist until we reach our true goal and climb over the edge of this desolate abyss.
"Three galactic years before the star's light was obscured, the Great Emperor woke up again and called his children to him.
"' Children, I am leaving this world in a moment.'
“The Great Emperor’s successors wept bitterly, calling for the Emperor’s eternity, but the Great Emperor just smiled and shook his head.
“Children, humans cannot be eternal. They are just an ordinary species in this universe. It is only because some groups of this species have reached a higher dimension that they have in turn helped the rest of the species to spread.
"In this sense, we are the same as insects, we are all so overbearing, expansionist and hegemonic, which comes from our desire for more living resources.
“After I leave, my will will continue to exist, but I cannot exist for too long. You must suppress the development of the aristocracy, otherwise the empire will quickly fall into a cycle of decline.
"The aristocracy and the imperial system are just products of fate that I have to bow to. We could have been greater, but nothing matters anymore."
Daphne paused and looked at Director Ino who was making gestures.
Director Ino said: "Very good, your memory is still so outstanding, continue eating."
"yes."
Daphne bowed her head and then continued to drink her favorite liquid food.
Director Ino looked at the old emperor and said gently, "Your Majesty, have you discovered it?"
"What did you find?" the old emperor asked, " I have memorized these things as well."
"Our ancestor, the great founding emperor," Director Ino said slowly, "should have suffered a huge setback three years before his physical death. According to historical records and some precious video records, I found that his demeanor, eyes, and way of thinking all showed obvious changes."
The old emperor smiled and said, "Perhaps, this war is against natural aging."
"No, Your Majesty," Director Ino said seriously, "The Dimensional Ascension Laboratory existed at that time, so there are some data that only I can see. At that time point, the Imperial Star had several consecutive huge energy consumptions, and too much energy was transferred from all over the country to here, causing some routes to be paralyzed for several months."
The old emperor frowned tightly.
"It is almost certain that our ancestor once tried to ascend to a higher dimension."
Director Ino whispered:
"It's possible that he was close to achieving his dimensional upgrade, otherwise he wouldn't have tried so many times. I infer that he was attacked by a higher-dimensional civilization in the final stage of his dimensional upgrade.
“Your Majesty, you should know that the Dimension Upgrading Laboratory is listed as the top priority in the Imperial Star Laboratory Group, and all resources will be allocated to us first.
“However, our research project has never been about the higher and stronger possibility of collective mind network ascension, but about the feasibility exploration of the dimensional model of a single individual and the extreme development of the human body. This is a painful process that is wrong in the first place and constantly proves that it is wrong.
“But every director of a generation, before dying, would tell the successors to continue the research in the same direction as before.
"why is that?
"It is very likely that other ways of ascending dimensions have been proven to be unworkable, and only this path can be explored. According to our information, this path has been moving forward with difficulty. We are currently relatively close to success, and the other paths should be those that our ancestors have tried and failed.
"For example, the Eternal Mechanical Mind Ascension."
The old emperor asked, "Can you tell me something simple?"
"Okay, the main driver of this super-large mecha of Emperor Star is the consciousness of the ancestor, and the consciousness of the ancestor has not yet fully awakened."
Director Ino said:
"This kind of slumber should be to prevent itself from breaking apart. I suspect the reason why our ancestors' consciousness awakened is related to the progress of our biological dimensionality upgrade experiment. As long as we succeed, our ancestors can perform mechanical downloads at any time and return their consciousness from the mechanical body to their own clones.
“Your Majesty, this is something that is very likely to happen, and it is a secret that only I know. The rest of the family only has vague guesses, and there is no definite data to confirm it.
"The Imperial Guard System, she is most likely the key, the key that will revive the consciousness of our ancestors and lead them to the path of dimensional ascension."
The old emperor frowned tightly and did not move his hand holding the cutlery for a long time.
Daphne suddenly whispered, "If you want to talk about the next dimension, why don't you ask Hanton? He has had many contacts with the Fayya people."
"The Faya people might be our ancestors' enemies," Director Ino leaned back in his chair, his eyes a little blank, "Because apart from the Faya people, I can't imagine who else could suppress the Emperor Star's super-large mecha and the Emperor Guard system, as well as the dimensional upgrade experiment that our ancestors conducted by gathering resources from half of the Milky Way."
The old emperor asked: "So, uncle, what you mean is that the imperial guard system cannot be moved. If it is moved, it is likely to affect the resurrection of the ancestors, right?"
"Yes, your majesty."
The old emperor nodded and sat there lost in thought.
He is always cheerful and rarely shows such a serious expression.
"Okay, uncle, I won't keep you here any longer," the old emperor sighed, "I've lost the mood to even have a good meal."
Director Ino laughed, stood up and saluted the emperor. Daphne was about to follow Director Ino away, but the old emperor stopped her with a look, so she could only sit quietly.
Wait until Director Ino disappears at the door.
The old emperor threw the cutlery in his hand onto the table and cursed in a low voice: "You are using your ancestors to suppress me? Who is the emperor of the empire now? Huh?"
Daphne pursed her lips slightly and whispered, "Father, my great uncle is trapped in his laboratory."
"Yes, that's how he is. He doesn't have any bad intentions. He just wants our family to prosper."
The old emperor sighed and turned to look at Daphne:
"My daughter, how are you and Hanton doing lately?"
"We are fine," Daphne smiled, "He is very gentle and considerate. I won't bother with him about things that are not in front of me."
"You're lying."
The old emperor stared at Daphne with a smile.
Daphne blinked. "Father?"
"You can't fool me, Daphne. Even though you passed several medical examinations, I can tell at a glance...you two didn't have any substantial relationship, right?"
Daphne pursed her lips slightly.
The old emperor sighed, "He always rejected you because I overpowered him the first time. I don't understand things like dimensionality, but I am an expert on politics and interactions between men and women."
"I'm sorry, father," Daphne said, her eyes slightly moist as she lowered her head and sobbed, "I don't know how to face this. I've given him everything, but he still won't even look at me."
"Oh, Daphne, my daughter, don't cry about this. You are very good."
The old emperor said earnestly:
"I have to take some responsibility for this matter, but relationships require mutual attraction and promotion. One-sided efforts and lowering of one's own principles will only kill the relationship in the end.
“Whether man or woman, there is a bitch living in everyone’s heart.
"Hanton is very important in my plan. He is a warrior of the Fayya people. We just happen to rely on his strength. You must find a way to keep his genes. It will benefit our family a lot."
"I, I will try my best."
"Well, I will find you some teachers later. They are all experts in these techniques." The old emperor shook his head. "Next time I see you, don't let me feel that you are still a pure girl. This is really embarrassing for your father."
"I'm sorry, father. I will try harder."
"If it doesn't work, use force."
"Okay, okay."
…
“A-choo!”
In the bridge of the Dongfeng, Yang Ming sniffed and his eyes became a little hazy.
What’s going on? Why are you sneezing all the time?
How could a monstrous solitary life form like him catch a cold?
