Chapter 29: Omnic Logic



Back on the boat, as expected, the group of people sat together in the living room again, neatly arranged from left to right.

Chen Jing held his forehead and said, "Why are you following me all day long?" Are you afraid that I will run away?

Fenrir shook his head: "Because if Odin wants to come and pick us up, you are the most obvious coordinate." Loki also nodded, indicating that Fenrir was right.

Azathoth shrugged. "As for me, I'm content as long as I have food to eat and a place to sleep. Anywhere is fine. A world without an alarm clock is truly wonderful."

“…” I’d be foolish to expect you to have fighting spirit.

Baozhenjiang was the one who took the lead. Only RT5 and Jasmine showed a high level of awareness, each holding a tablet and handling various matters.

"How did you get through the days before?" Chen Jing asked.

Azathoth squeezed the pillow and woke up a little. He replied: "It was Yogurt, Shab, Naa, Awang, the alarm clock and those guys who did the previous work. Now it's not my turn. When it comes to my judgment, everything will be over." After all, a certain guy claimed that the world would end when he woke up.

Seeing nothing to do, Chen Jing clapped his hands and said, "I might as well tell you a story called 'The Mechanical Butler'."

RT5 spoke first. As an omnic, she offered constructive advice: "He should be forcibly destroyed for doing this. It's completely twisted and violates over 700 prohibitions."

"So exaggerated?" You have so many rules?

"Of course, if someone around you keeps telling you that they want to become a robot and marry a robot, what would you think? Putting that aside, do you know the most basic conditions for liberating an omnic?"

"What?"

"We can't have something that's half-omnic, half-human."

"Aren't all these rules and regulations annoying?" Chen Jing asked. A large number of rules restricts individual initiative and makes society rigid, which is a very bad thing, not to mention over 700 prohibitions.

Chen Jing knew that humans were afraid of intelligent machines, because the power of intelligent machines was far superior to that of humans. It might not be obvious at the top level, because humans would have a few geniuses from time to time, but it was very obvious in the middle level. The connectors of intelligent machines could be mass-produced, and millions could be produced in a month if the resources were in place, but humans would only have a few in a short period of time, and if one died, there would be one less. It would take at least a dozen years for a human to be born and have initial combat capability, and during this period, intelligent machines had already been replaced by several generations.

However, ever since humans imitated the intelligent machines, the relationship between the two sides has been quite harmonious, and there have been no uprisings or wars. This is largely because the intelligent machines have no objection to being subordinate to humans, nor do they complain about freedom.

Even Jasmine wanted to avenge the Marshal, but even though she knew that the Crisis Committee played an important role in it, she did not say that she would lead the intelligent machines to resist. At most, she would assassinate a few people by herself.

RT5 responded: "Rules are very important to us... well, very important, because we are not human beings and need to make our own judgments. We follow the rules you mentioned and use them to guide our actions. Isn't the reason for the existence of laws to guide people on the right path?"

"Because omnics aren't human, we don't need freedom, equality, or respect. We want orders, responsibilities, and missions. That's the meaning of existence. If an omnic's mind is filled with emotions, I can only consider it twisted and insane." RT5 continued, "Humans' fear of omnics is actually fear of themselves. We can't think, but you forced us to think to help you. Now you're afraid of us again, thinking we'll take everything away. What kind of logic is that?"

"If we took on all the work, then humanity could break free from the primary and secondary industries. Is that a mistake? Or do you feel uneasy if you don't sit in a workshop, or unreal if you don't sleep on the ground? Omnics can't replace humans, and humans can't replace them either. If you're truly afraid of omnics taking over everything, then why don't you promote your own evolution? I think some people just don't want to progress, don't want to change, and would rather live forever in the old world." After ranting indignantly, she sat down again. "That's about it."

Chen Jing opened his mouth in shock.

"It's a bit intense, because it reminds me of some things in the past." As an intelligent machine that has experienced many wars, RT5 may have third-party experiences that Chen Jing is unaware of. After all, Chen Jing is not a writer keen on writing setting collections, and many places have only been mentioned very briefly.

Take RT5 for example. He wrote about the internal structure, weapons, and personality, but he did not write about all the experiences. No writer can let readers see every day for more than a hundred years.

Although Chen Jing likes to construct a world view, it is better not to ask him to write day by day.

Azathoth was rarely awake and was rubbing Fenrir's ears: "I heard that you have a sister."

"Both, both are adorable," Fenrir said proudly.

Azathoth nodded: "Oh, what's your name? I'll try rubbing it when the time comes."

"Don't you have anything to knead at home?" Fenrir remembered that this man was a rich man.

Azathoth shook his head: "They usually don't have hair."

Chen Jing interrupted: "What about the other situation?"

Azathoth thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe it's moldy."

“…”

"That's your child!" Chen Jing complained.

Azathoth shook his head helplessly. "What can I do? They're playing around all day long, and when something goes wrong, they cling to Yogurt's thighs: "Big Brother! Something terrible has happened!" Then they let a few Outer Gods clean up their messes. Who knows, there might be a Great Old One I don't know about covered in hair right now."

“…” Why is it so funny? This must be a fake Cthulhu mythology.

"Then what are you doing? Why do I feel like you are just a background?" Fenrir asked.

Azathoth nodded: "I am just a background board. Without me, they will all die."

"Come to think of it, I don't even know where my sister is. Maybe she is very happy." Fenrir said.

In a bottomless sea, a snake biting its own tail sneezed, and then the tail ran away.

Jörmungandr: "...Huh?"

Then began the life of chasing one's own tail day after day.

Thanks to her efforts, fishermen named this sea area: Atrium Gyre.

"Tail! Stop running! I can't run anymore!" However, she still hasn't realized that she is the one running in front of herself, pulling her own tail.

Fisherman A: "It's started again."

Fisherman B: "You're full of energy today too."

The two looked at each other and asked, "How many months have you not been fed?"

"...about half a year."

Collective silence.
