Chapter 204 Chapter 204 Vest King Dad 24
9972 said in a complicated tone, "Yes, baby guessed right."
It was so easy to find out the reason for the failure of the small world's evolution, and solve the problems of the headquarters and world consciousness.
Zhuozhuo didn't register 997t2's feelings. She anxiously asked, "Si Hao, Wood, Mr. Tu, Yi Fangzhou, are they really okay? They suddenly fainted and haven't woken up yet."
Don't worry, baby, they'll wake up soon.
"Where's Sun Sirui? He's not here. Did he faint somewhere else?"
[He fainted, but he was in his bedroom, no one saw him, and he was not in danger.]
As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Fangzhou, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and struck out at Grace, who was about to pull him up, with his hand as fast as lightning. Grace stretched out her hand to block, and in the blink of an eye, they exchanged a few moves.
"Yi Fangzhou, you're awake!" Zhuozhuo shouted in surprise.
Yi Fangzhou pushed Grace away and quickly walked towards Zhuozhuo. He hugged her and patted her on the back. A look of fear flashed across his face. "Zhuozhuo, how are you?"
"Zhuozhuo is fine."
Si Hao, Wu De, and Mr. Tu woke up almost simultaneously. They immediately went to Zhuo Zhuo to make sure she was safe. Amidst their concerns, the smile on Zhuo Zhuo's face grew wider. Fear and panic gradually surged into her heart. Her eyes reddened, tears began to fall, and then she burst into tears.
The four of them were suddenly in a panic. They hugged Zhuozhuo and tried to comfort him with the softest voice, but the more they tried to coax him, the louder he cried, leaving them extremely anxious and at a loss.
Grace stood nearby, rubbing her shoulders with a grin, watching in wonder as the group of big men coaxed the child. She said helplessly, "Zhuozhuo's been frightened. Let her cry. She'll be fine after she's done. Admiral, this earthquake is strange, and the cause hasn't been determined yet. The capital planet is in chaos, and many people are taking advantage of the situation to cause trouble. Will you come and take charge?"
Si Hao didn't want to go, but staying here wouldn't be much use. Besides, he also wanted to provide Zhuozhu with a peaceful and safe environment, so he had to eliminate the remnants of the royal family and those with ulterior motives. He rubbed Zhuozhu's little head, turned around and left with Grace.
Zhuozhuo looked at Si Hao's back, wiped her tears with her little hands, and said with a sob, "Zhuozhuo, don't... cry anymore. You guys, go and get busy."
The three of them felt soft-hearted and said that having Si Hao was enough and there was nothing they had to do.
Zhuozhuo sobbed and asked, "Really?"
"real."
Zhuozhuo felt relieved. He hugged each of the three and cried for a while. Then he rubbed his face against their necks and collars, wiping away his tears and snot. Finally, he leaned into their arms, looked at them pitifully with red eyes, and said hesitantly, "I'm sorry. Zhuozhuo said the wrong thing and made you faint."
9972 yelled: [No, baby! What I meant by that was that you did a great thing!]
Zhuozhuo said firmly and sadly in his mind, "Tongtong, you praise everything Zhuozhuo does. Zhuozhuo didn't do anything good, and Zhuozhuo made Si Hao and the others faint."
9972: […Baby, I'm not just complimenting you without thinking, you deserve it. You're just that good.]
Wood, Yi Fangzhou, and Number Two exchanged a glance. They roughly understood what had just happened and realized Zhuo Zhuo's identity was not simple, but what did it matter? Regardless of Zhuo Zhuo's origins, she was the child they adopted from the orphanage, the daughter they would do everything they could to nurture and raise.
The little one was bright, perceptive, innocent, and happy, yet now he was revealing such a look of self-blame and anxiety. The three of them felt a pang of distress and said firmly, "Zhuozhuo, even if we really fainted because of what you said, you didn't do anything wrong because you didn't mean to. We were just having a normal conversation, right? If you really want to assign blame, it's our fault. We were adults, we didn't see the danger in the conversation, and we encouraged you to continue. We were so mean. So mean and useless."
Zhuozhuo shook his head and said anxiously: "You are not bad, you are useful and great! The bad thing is..."
"We're all fine. This was just an accident. No one needs to blame themselves or feel guilty." Wood interrupted Zhuozhuo and concluded persuasively, "What we need to do now is figure out what happened, prevent it from happening again, and then address the situation as quickly as possible to minimize the damage caused by the earthquake."
Zhuozhuo nodded and looked at Wood with watery eyes, waiting for him to make arrangements.
Wood touched Zhuo Zhuo's head and said gently, "What we need to do now is to deal with the unrest, maintain order, and carry out emergency rescue and relief. Number Two and Yi Fangzhou are very good at these things, so let them do it. I'll accompany you to rest first. After they've handled it, you can go and comfort the frightened people. Is that okay?"
"How can I comfort the frightened people?" Zhuozhuo was distressed. She had never done such a thing and didn't know how to do it.
Wood was stunned by the question, and Yi Fangzhou continued, "We will go with you to visit these people when the time comes. Zhuozhuo, don't be nervous, just act as usual."
Zhuozhuo seemed to understand, but she stopped worrying about it and let Wood hold her and leave the banquet hall.
9972 quickly muttered to her, "Baby, in this small world, you can't speak ill of the world consciousness. What if it's petty?"
"I know..." Zhuozhuo paused, staring stiffly at the scene outside through the window of the hovercraft. Under the bright lights, trees fell, the ground cracked, buildings collapsed, and blood and body parts were scattered. Search and rescue robots, obstacle removal robots, and other functional robots shuttled among them, working alongside soldiers and sheriffs to maintain order, search and rescue, and organize evacuations to safety.
Sadness and pain hung in the air, the air was filled with the smell of blood and groans, as well as faint sounds of gunfire and explosions. The heavy night hung like a mountain above everyone's head.
Wood's eyes flashed with regret. He had actually forgotten to adjust the window's visibility. Just as he was about to turn it back to blind, he heard Zhuozhuo's sobbing voice, "Zhuozhuo wants to go down."
"Zhuozhuo, Si Hao and the others are responsible for their work now. You will be needed later. If you go out now and get tired, you won't be able to contribute later, right?"
"Yes, baby, everyone has their own areas of expertise. We just need to do our part well. And Si Hao and the others are very capable. You should trust them."
Zhuozhuo leaned against the window, watching the orderly and busy scene below, and gradually felt relieved. She turned her head and urged Wood, "Drive faster, let's go home and rest."
"good."
Arriving at their destination, they found a well-preserved small manor, built with the same expensive materials and techniques as the imperial palace banquet hall, and unscathed by the earthquake. Zhuozhuo got out of the car and discovered it wasn't Si Hao's home. Wood explained, "This place is closer to the resettlement site."
"Okay." Zhuozhuo looked around and said softly, "The house is so beautiful, with so many bright lights, it looks like a castle."
Wood smiled and said, "This is a manor under my name. If Zhuozhuo likes it, I can give it to you. We can live here together and make it our home."
"Okay, this is Zhuozhuo and Wood's home."
The corners of Wood's mouth curled up wildly, as if he was happy to have received some promise.
972 looked at him with pity. Zhuozhuo's words didn't mean that, in her heart, Wood had triumphed over Si Hao. In Zhuozhuo's mind, she had a home with Sun Sirui, a home with Si Hao, and a home with Wood. Later, she could have a home with Mr. Tu and another with Yi Fangzhou. These homes were all unique and coexisted, but with five unique homes, they weren't special.
After entering the house and eating a small bun, Zhuozhuo started clamoring to wash up and go to bed. Wood subconsciously asked 005 to help her wash, but he heard no response. He realized something was wrong and immediately checked the computer and system logs, discovering that 005 had stopped running half an hour ago.
There were messages from the other four people on the computer, but without 005's reminder, he didn't see them in time. When he clicked on the messages, they all said that the system stopped working due to vibration.
At this point in time...
Wood knew the reason. Zhuozhuo's earth-shattering words directly exposed their most secretive secret, which they themselves were not allowed to remember.
Fifteen years ago, the Imperial Academy's Intelligent Brain Laboratory achieved a breakthrough. Professor Sariel declared that by simply connecting the right human brain, a mastermind combining the advantages of both a human and a computer could be created. Using a mastermind to assist in national governance would not only improve efficiency, reduce costs and errors, but also strengthen the capital planet's control over other star systems. Furthermore, models could be used to simulate the consequences of various decisions and select the optimal solution.
The capacity and workload of the mainframe are astronomical. A human brain docked with it must be able to withstand the onslaught of data, requiring at least SS-level mental strength. This conclusion was reached because researchers had previously docked an S-level human brain, and after three seconds, the subject's mental strength collapsed, resulting in brain death.
At the time, there were eleven known SS-level psychics in the Empire, the Federation, and the Pirates, all of whom held powerful positions. Even with the Empire's backing, the laboratory couldn't find a suitable test subject quickly. Just as everyone was at their wit's end, the Manhattan family's head offered an SSS-level test subject.
Everyone was overjoyed and did not bother to delve into the origins of the test subjects. Fearing that the Manhattan family leader would go back on his word, the emperor agreed to all the conditions he proposed and allowed Sariel to lead his team into the Manhattan family laboratory to perform brain-computer docking on the test subjects.
That test subject was Yi Fangzhou.
Yi Fangzhou's biological father was the head of the Manhattan family, and his mother was Yi Lianyue, the posthumous child of Marshal Yi, who died in battle fifty years ago. At that time, Marshal Yi and the twenty million soldiers of Fort Glinton were killed. His pregnant omega wife was traumatized and mentally unstable. She barely escaped the clutches of the Emperor's assassins, but died of a hemorrhage after giving birth while being pursued.
The child was given to an orphanage by kindhearted individuals. Later, the Manhattan family, seeking to cultivate a charitable image, visited the orphanage and stumbled upon a resemblance between her and Marshal Yi and his wife. After investigating and confirming her identity, they took her home and raised her, naming her Yi Lianyue. Their original intention was to use her to lure out Marshal Yi's former subordinates, either selling them to the emperor or forcing them to work for the Manhattan family.
After Yilian Yue came of age, the Manhattan family master plotted to completely mark her. Unaware of his true identity, Yilian Yue, under duress from her family, became his secret lover, tormented by pain and guilt every day. She died of depression after giving birth to Yi Fangzhou at the age of 20.
At just three months old, Yvonnejo displayed exceptional mental strength. At the time, the Manhattan Family was secretly conducting experiments on the insect mother, and Yvonnejo became the perfect test subject. Raised in the laboratory, he was subjected to daily experiments, leaving him mentally and physically scarred. Gradually, he realized he wasn't meant to be subjected to this and began plotting his escape.
At that moment, Sariel and his team arrived at the lab. To obtain better data and experimental feedback, Sariel patiently cultivated a good relationship with Yi Fangzhou, smilingly stating that they were friends. He then allowed him to access the Star Network under supervision, allowing him to receive a vast amount of information, hoping to develop his brain and mental power to the utmost.
Sariel planned to conduct experiments when Ivonzhou awakened his spiritual body at the age of eighteen, but Ivonzhou completed the knowledge accumulation and escape plan in just three months, and used data and language to hint to Sariel that he should conduct the experiments as soon as possible to ensure the growth potential of the main brain - Ivonzhou could escape quietly, but he also wanted to know how powerful he would be after connecting with the intelligent brain, and he was confident that he could retain his self-awareness.
The experiment was thus brought forward, and fifteen-year-old Yi Fangzhou did indeed overcome the data shock, but it was a tragic victory. After destroying all the lab's data and the memories of those involved, Yi Fangzhou escaped from the lab and created six copies of himself to accommodate the exponentially growing data.
The first one took on most of the main brain's functions, but to avoid affecting its mental strength, it blocked its "human" memories, believing itself to be a system. The next five blocked their memories of the "intelligent brain" and lived under different identities.
The so-called system 000 is the combination of the five systems 001 to 005.
Zhuozhuo's words are the key. After his identity is revealed, the five systems should begin to merge, but it is not known how long it will take.
