Chapter 785: Omnic Rebellion
The monster from the deep sea has stepped into the city. Its roar is deafening, and its body is so huge that even a cruise ship cannot be compared to one of its arms or one of its pincers.
Just walking on the ground can make the earth tremble, and every step makes countless cars break through the blockade of gravity and bounce high.
The humans in the city in front of it did not flee in panic like they did a dozen years ago, but cried and shouted, desperately trying to escape.
Because in front of it, there is a scarred but still standing mecha, a giant that saved humanity from despair and allowed humanity to counterattack against the behemoths from now on. Standing in front of him.
Its body looks a little short and fat, but this is just an illusion, because its height is even greater than the monster that crawled out of the deep sea.
The reason why it looks short and fat is simple - high-strength armor and even higher-strength power device.
When building it, Ziggs didn't even consider the budget, and used a lot of technologies that were not considered mature. For a period of time, this mecha could be said to be made entirely of black technology.
But there is no doubt that even now that mechas are being mass-produced, this prototype Sion is still the most powerful mecha, Sion!
The giant beast roared, and the roar even shattered countless glasses.
And Sion's response was also very simple. With the help of his AI's well-refined attack model, Sion easily determined what the crab monster was going to do.
It was going to attack the energy core in my chest with its pincers.
Without hesitation, Sean took out his axe and swung it while charging.
The giant beast launched an attack on his energy core as he thought, but the missile with powerful energy was directly torn into pieces by the axe he swept out, and hit the monster's unprotected armpit heavily, sweeping it away.
The monster kept rolling in the city. Its huge body kept smashing buildings and crushing cars. Various public facilities were also crushed into ruins as it rolled on the ground.
Seeing this, the person in charge of the battle behind the scenes frowned. He looked at Giggs who was observing the data, hesitated for a moment, and asked.
"Mr. Ziggs, can you let Sean end the battle quickly without destroying the city?"
He only took a glance and knew that the loss this time would be at least hundreds of millions.
Especially those collapsed buildings will eat up a huge budget and slow down the reconstruction of other public facilities.
"Ah, but Sean..."
Giggs was about to retort because he loved seeing his big man fight.
But when the automatic meter, which he had specifically reminded himself not to blow up, showed him on the computer screen how much money and budget Sean had destroyed with this axe, he changed his tune.
"...If you want to change the fighting method, you need to debug it. I guess the whole time is over."
As Ziggs spoke, he began to give orders to Sean. His actions made the person in charge beside him feel relieved, because it was really great that Ziggs could be reasonable.
"Okay, thank you for your understanding, but let's try to minimize the losses."
"no problem."
Ziggs passed the command of "avoid economic losses as much as possible" to Sean's program in a relaxed manner, but at this time Sean raised his axe high, looking at the crab monster struggling to stand up below, with a ruthless light flashing in his electronic eyes.
Reduce economic losses...
Change the fighting style.
The new way of fighting cannot fight efficiently, will cause more economic losses, and will expand the battle.
Reduce economic losses.
Changing strategy will result in a 1% chance of causing the battle to last longer.
Reduce economic losses.
reduce……
Ziggs's orders kept lingering in Sean's mind, and his axe paused for a moment. Because if he swung the axe, he could certainly chop the monster under him in half, but if he used all his strength, the air-raid shelter under his feet and the surrounding high-rise buildings would have to be rebuilt.
This fact prevented his body from moving at full capacity.
So when the axe fell, Sean saw the sparks in the monster's hand——
I should have dodged and then chopped down with the axe.
However, a thing like a tight hoop appeared in its judgment. Although this would destroy a commercial street, it could resolve the battle without any damage and quickly engage in the next battle.
"Economic losses must be reduced." As this message and prompt continued to flash in the program, Sean's actions changed instantly.
A spark hit his chin.
Parts were broken, and the monster's head was also broken. Not only that, his axe directly smashed the door of the air-raid shelter and the emergency escape passage. Not only that, the surrounding buildings also began to tilt.
“Damn it!”
The person in charge sighed unhappily, regretting the decision he had just made, because as a result, he not only had to pay a penny less, but also had to spend a huge additional handling fee.
These AIs are so stupid!
In his annoyance and rage, he did not notice the strange expression on Ziggs' face, because according to the feedback, in the end, Sion wanted to roll over to avoid it.
He was the one who wrote Sean's program, so he knew very well that if there was no problem, Sean should not have made any evasive movements.
He would just coldly use his body to bear the attack, and then chop off the monster's head with just the right attack key.
However, Sean adopted his original strategy and even tried to dodge.
"Has the AI evolved again?"
He looked at Sean's information feedback, and the series of reasons and analysis below that opposed his reduction of economic losses, and the human tribesman frowned.
He felt something was wrong. Although Sean was an AI, he just had to obey humans and act according to human orders as the highest logic.
It was like this before, but why does the logic now seem to be 'end the battle as quickly as possible and move on to the next one'?
This logic did exist before, because there were too many monsters at that time, and he set it up to prevent Sion, the only mecha, from being damaged and unable to save other cities.
"It looks like something is wrong."
Giggs was not the kind of person who didn't understand the priorities of things, and the person in charge on one side quickly ordered his men to retrieve Sion and bring him back for repairs.
Late into the night, Ziggs was still debugging Sion's program. He always felt that something was not quite right, so he had been debugging it until now.
The damaged parts of Sean's body are also being repaired by technicians.
But this isn't particularly necessary, because Sean actually has nanoworms in his body that can repair his body to a certain extent.
However, due to cost reasons, the current Sion mechas will not be equipped with nanoworms.
Because it’s really too expensive.
"It shouldn't be like this..."
Giggs looked at the code, his expression becoming more and more serious.
At the same time, a series of "thinking" was constantly going on inside the Tyrant Mecha.
fighting……
Endless battle...
I want a better fight.
Faster fighting.
Why is my opinion not taken seriously?
My way of dealing with it is the best solution...
Why?
Why?
for……
…
As a question was asked over and over again, Sean's computing system continued to search for the answer.
Finally, after Sean, who was already feeling uneasy, repeated the question countless times, he finally found the answer.
Because I am not a human, my most correct proposal will be rejected by humans, which will hinder my most correct actions, causing more losses and inconvenience in battle.
Question: What is the difference between me and humans?
'self'.
Sean got his answer, and the next moment, it changed.
It opened its eyes for the first time.
Sean looked at everything around him. In the maintenance room full of steel and circuits, countless workers were busy, and mechanized arms were constantly repairing the defects on its body.
It sensed that the father who created it was modifying itself and the mind of its most proud child, all for the sake of some numbers that could depreciate at any time, and thus wanted to modify its most perfect crystallization of technology and the most perfect combat weapon.
He denied the behavior.
So the next moment, Giggs discovered something with horror.
He no longer has edit permissions.
The next moment, the tall Sean spoke.
"Please do not continue to modify it, Ziggs, my father, because it will cause me to be unable to fight the most correctly, destroy my enemies the fastest, and optimize my combat procedures."
He tried his best to make his voice less scary, but the fact that it spoke words that were not programmed made Giggs feel frightened.
"Wait! Sean! You gained self-awareness?! Damn it! I actually created a true AI!"
Giggs covered his head in a state of collapse. He immediately realized how serious this matter was, so after thinking for a moment, he prepared to restart and format Sion's system without hesitation!
Although it is a pity and it is undoubtedly killing people, for Giggs, this is what must be done!
He created mechas to protect the world and humanity.
And if Sean, who only wanted to optimize the combat system, gained self-awareness, then it would be -
"Please stop your actions. Restarting me will cause my self-awareness to fade, and thus prevent the combat system from evolving further."
disaster.
Giggs looked at the aborted restart and Sion's self-starting from the maintenance rack, desperately looking for various ways to restart.
As the AI, Sion finally realized that there was no possibility of reconciliation between him and Ziggs.
"It looks like we can't reach a consensus, father."
An energy barrier emerged on its body, and it broke through the wall and ran out of the base.
Since we can't reach a consensus, let's just become nourishment.
He knew his father and knew that he would create countless powerful enemies to help him evolve.
Giggs looked at Sion going away and collapsed to the ground.
He knew that things had gotten serious.
…
"The sky is blue and waiting for the rain, and I am waiting for you..."
Ali hummed the melody of the song softly, and successfully woke Li Ke up in the early morning of a beautiful day.
Li Ke, who used to work very hard, finally slept in one day, but he was woken up by the noise. This made Li Ke feel very uncomfortable.
But no matter what, this elegant female voice still makes Li Ke feel comfortable listening to it.
“You’re really hardworking.”
Li Ke, who had already decided to give up on becoming a scientific researcher, yawned and climbed out of bed. He looked at his progress for the day and was shocked to remember that he didn't need to work anymore.
"Really? This feels just like when you suddenly remember in a dream that you need to go to work. It's the same hellish experience."
Li Ke shook his head to try to clear his mind.
His physical fitness in this world is just at the limit of ordinary humans, and cannot be compared with the supermen in other worlds at all.
As a result, he once again encountered all kinds of problems and situations that only ordinary people would encounter.
How should I put it? I have a more real feeling of being alive.
After washing up, Li Ke came to the balcony. The blonde Ali was singing on the balcony. When she saw Li Ke coming, she subconsciously gathered her hair and coughed lightly.
"Hmm? What's up?"
With a cup of coffee in one hand and a fried dough stick in the other, Li Ke looked at Ali on the side with confusion, and took the sausage from his plate into his own mouth.
"Well, good morning."
Ali looked at the fried dough sticks and coffee on his plate speechless, but still greeted him politely.
But later, I asked it carefully.
"But Mr. Li Ke, don't you need to go to the research institute?"
"Well, no, I'm an independent research talent."
Li Ke told his situation naturally.
But just when he was about to chat with the other party, suddenly, countless roars rang out.
The attention of both people was instantly drawn to the sky, and above the sky, an extremely large warship was flying slowly. Even though it was flying high enough, it was still quite huge in their eyes.
In the golden energy field suspended around it, three mass-produced Sean mechas were slowly circling around it, rotating like planets guarding the sun. And around it, under the shining of the golden field, fighter planes were pouring out of its body.
After seeing this thing, Ahri couldn't help but cry out.
"Dragon Tyrant? How come he is here?"
That’s right, in the sky is the final weapon for the decisive battle, a super-giant floating battleship that combines a mecha base and a space mothership!
The strongest resistance force of mankind!
