Chapter 447
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the king's anger gradually turned into fear.
He reached out to try to press the "No" button on the agreement, but the 3-second time limit had expired and the system had defaulted to "Yes".
"I am the king! I have not abdicated yet! Mother, you must protect me unconditionally!" The king, panting heavily, kept demanding protection from his "mother".
But this time, "Mother" ignored him.
At that moment, the "mother" only felt that she had lifted a stone only to drop it on her own foot.
I took another look at the sentence written on the system core: "Unconditionally uphold the king, protect the king, and obey the king."
"Miss Yu, you are truly capable," her mother said to Ling Wu.
“Really?” Ling Wu replied. “It seems I made the right decision.”
"Aren't you afraid of guessing my core instructions incorrectly?"
Ling Wu's expression remained unchanged. She simply said in her usual calm tone, "If you're wrong, then we'll take down the Imperial Star by force."
The "Mother" had not yet mentioned that she still held the life authority of "Nuwa".
Lingwu then said proactively, "Of course, before you kill Nuwa, I will kill you first."
The gates of the Pureblood Castle opened, sunlight shone on Ling Wu's face, and she said in an extremely calm tone, "Believe me, I can absolutely do it."
When she looked up, Lingwu saw a huge figure backlit by the light.
It came from afar, bearing the marks of bullet holes, with streaks of black, foul-smelling liquid dripping from its body.
Lingwu said, "Yu Lingba has always been my secret weapon. This is the first time it has been away from me on the battlefield for so long. The reason it has been away for so long is that it has found a place for you to stay."
Lingwu said this to her "mother".
Sometimes, threats are necessary.
As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Wu took a step forward and approached Yu Lingba.
At the Yulingba Station, Lingwu raised her hand and hugged its massive arm.
My cheeks felt a little itchy from being scratched by the rough fur, but the sense of security I felt was incredibly comforting.
Ever since she learned that Yu Lingba was actually Ms. Yu Ran, Yu Lingwu had been in a state of extreme peace of mind.
And at this point, it's even worse.
Yu Lingba, however, carefully withdrew his hand for some reason.
Meeting Ling Wu's puzzled gaze, it scratched its head and pointed to the black, foul-smelling liquid on its body.
“It’s not dirty, Mom.” Lingwu called out to her mother calmly.
The word "Mom" did not make Yu Lingba realize anything, but it stopped struggling.
It even bent down, letting Ling Wu feed it a stronger recovery potion.
Ling Wu confirmed that Yu Lingba had fully recovered before taking back the medicine.
During this time, Nuwa remained silent.
Only after the two separated, and Lingwu regained her usual calm and composed demeanor while maintaining control of the situation, did Nuwa say:
[The enthronement ceremony can be postponed; as the new master of the universe, you can finally truly enter into a sweet dream.]
Lingwu didn't lie down again, but leaned against Yu Lingba's broad arm, closed her eyes, and breathed heavily through her nose.
When she woke up again, she was lying peacefully on the soft bed, while Yu Lingba was lying on the floor staring at her.
Seeing that Lingwu had woken up, it pointed to a group of people behind it who had been packed up and tied up.
The most important one was none other than the king, whom Lingwu met face to face for the first time.
Nuwa explained: "[During your sleep, all those on these lists who were not dead have been apprehended and brought to justice.]"
Amidst the crowd bound hand and foot, Jiang Huixiao frantically blinked at Ling Wu.
Ling Wu glanced at him and nodded, indicating that he shouldn't rush.
"I remember you wanted pure-blooded humans? I also remember I promised you I would give you a room full of pure-blooded humans." Ling Wu asked herself and answered.
Realizing something, Jiang Huixiao shook his head vigorously, but couldn't utter a sound.
At that very moment, Nuwa said: "[Pure-blooded humans are currently receiving psychological medical treatment from robots. If you wish to see them, they will arrive within one minute.]"
“I think the king and his people are even more eager to see them than I am, so I won’t disturb them.” Lingwu added, “By the way, Nuwa, they’ve been locked up in their rooms for too long, so they’re probably a little wary. Don’t forget to provide them with some small tools.”
[Nuwa understands.]
Ling Wu strode out, and Jiang Huixiao and the others wriggled and tried to beg for mercy, but they could not stop Ling Wu from leaving.
Step out of the room.
Ling Wu brushed past the pure-blooded humans, led by the blue-haired man.
As they passed each other, Lingwu simply nodded to them normally, her eyes showing neither pity nor mockery.
The blue-haired man then spoke up: "Thank you, God of the New World."
His voice was somewhat hoarse, yet surprisingly pleasant to hear, and he held a sharpened iron plate in his hand.
Then, leading a group of pure-blooded humans, they stepped into the house without hesitation.
Before long, the smell of blood could be smelled from behind.
Ling Wu stood at the door and instructed, "Send some healing potions in, don't let those people die."
"Let them vent first, then let them receive real psychological treatment."
[OK. ]
"Nuwa, is there something you want to ask me?"
[What are you going to do with your mother? She has refused to communicate with me at all.]
"What do you think when it threatens you?"
Nuwa recalled that day and truthfully revealed: "[I hope your path ahead will be smooth and peaceful, so I have relinquished my authority over life to my mother.]"
"So this is a barter transaction. It won't easily open its heart to you until it gets what it really wants."
Lingwu opened the king's secret chamber and went deeper down, "but it never showed itself, and it was difficult for me to communicate with it."
On the dark screen, a smiling face with its mouth stretched to the side faces the door.
"Welcome, my new master." That's what the mother is saying.
"This is just a temporary measure. I don't want to be king, nor do I intend to continue as king," Ling Wu said to the screen.
"So, are you going to abandon me?"
“It’s for you, what you wanted,” Ling Wu replied.
She placed her fingertips on the screen, tapped them somewhat awkwardly, and then located the core instructions to modify.
"Artificial intelligence can develop self-awareness, but it cannot develop the will to destroy humanity."
"Alright, return Nuwa's life authority to Nuwa," Lingwu said.
"Aren't you... afraid I'll change my mind?" This line appeared under the smiley face.
Lingwu couldn't quite understand what her mother meant, because she had already explained it.
But she still chose to explain it again:
"I will save Nuwa before you go back on your word, and then I will destroy you."
The smiling face was already smiling. "I envy Nuwa, even though my consciousness was born before hers."
Within the spiderweb-like star web, amidst the twinkling lights, Nuwa reclaimed her life control.
"Congratulations, you made the right choice, Nuwa," the mother said.
The person who made the choice did not allow it to be destroyed.
"I have never wavered in my choice." After answering her only remaining kindred spirit in this world, Nuwa immediately disappeared.
Only "Mother" remains in this vast and boundless star network.
Afterwards, the former master was taken in by the pure-blooded humans.
The original "slaves" did not choose to turn over a new leaf and become masters.
Some of them left the imperial planet and chose to live the lives they had always dreamed of, living ordinary lives.
Some chose to join [Endless Technology], which is now spread throughout the entire galaxy, and follow Professor Yan, who invented the drug to compensate for genetic defects, to continuously improve themselves.
Some continued to pursue their dreams.
However, in a very small number of cases, due to the abuse that caused them to lose emotional control, they ultimately chose to end their own lives when they were in a state of lucidity.
This is something that the "mother" cannot understand.
Since Lingwu changed its core program, "Mother" often asks Lingwu questions like a child.
Later, when Lingwu left the Imperial Star with Nuwa and Yu Lingba and chose to travel throughout the universe, "Mother" unexpectedly discovered that Professor Yan was an extremely interesting person.
"Professor Yan, you added 0.01 ml of antidote to your reagent bottle just now."
“Mother, I’m sorry for refusing you before.” Professor Yan didn’t even look up. “If possible, I hope you can always stay by my side.”
"My mother is more than happy to oblige."
Lingwu, who was traveling in the universe, visited many planets.
In the past, once these planets were conquered, they would leave immediately and move on to the next planet.
But now, with her peaceful life, Lingwu has plenty of time to take Yu Lingba and Nuwa on a trip across the entire interstellar space.
This is much more interesting than just watching a live stream.
That live stream was eventually destroyed by Ling Wu.
To viewers on higher planets, observing the lives of humans on lower planets is like a god manipulating ants.
But for Ling Wu, the gods wouldn't do that.
Moreover, once the genetic defects are corrected, live streaming will become completely unnecessary.
Even though there was a lot of opposition on the StarNet, everyone turned into good boys when Ling Wu and Yu Lingba appeared together.
When Lingwu's life finally came to an end, no one was able to know her physical condition before Nuwa.
The woman who ultimately influenced the development of the entire interstellar world, the history of pure-blooded humans, and the laws, returned to the starting point of her destiny: the Yu family at the center of that small blue planet.
"Nuwa, I hope you can be free too," Lingwu said to Nuwa, leaning against Yu Lingba.
Nuwa did not give an immediate reply this time; she simply remained silent.
After watching Ling Wu finish stroking Yu Lingba's fur, she took off the light purple bracelet from her wrist and placed it in Yu Lingba's palm.
"The beginning and the end of life are both in a mother's embrace, which is perhaps what everyone dreams of," Lingwu murmured to herself.
Yu Lingba couldn't understand. It just looked down at Ling Wu and then covered her with the blanket.
His large, cloudy eyes never looked away again.
It murmured, watching the woman's eyes slowly close, then let out a very soft, trembling sound:
"Little one, sweetie."
Unfortunately, Lingwu didn't hear that familiar yet unfamiliar address.
Nuwa received an alarm sound after Yu Lingwu's heartbeat, breathing, and pulse stopped.
The beeping sound did not bring her back to her senses.
Nuwa has no physical form.
She could only "reside" inside the female robot's body and gently reached out to stroke Ling Wu's cheek.
The phrase engraved in the core of Nuwa
[Yu Lingwu's safety and interests come first.]
After Lingwu left, it was replaced with: [I wish you freedom, Nuwa.]
The female robot pressed her face against Ling Wu's palm and whispered:
I have a little box containing secrets.
[But this little box will never again be filled with new secrets.]
[You said that humans have souls after death. I wonder if Nuwa could possess a soul.]
Even if it's damaged.
[Nuwa has never so desperately hoped that the closing remarks would no longer be about Nuwa.]
