Chapter 089 Mechanical Core (13)
Tianshuang was still in a trance.
Tao Xing said: "It's inconvenient for you to do it yourself, why don't you let me install it for you."
Tianshuang opened his chest again and held out his "heart".
Tao Xing embedded the leaf-like white chip into the circuit board tightly and pushed it back. The white light moved slightly, and then suddenly became brighter, illuminating Tian Shuang's entire body.
The light flickered and then disappeared, Tianshuang slowly stood up, as if something was flowing in the circuit, every part of his body was filled with powerful force, and in an instant he seemed to be reborn, and the efficiency of all his functions increased several times.
He raised his hand and slowly clenched his fist.
At that moment 080 was startled, worried that he would hit the host, but seeing the host's calm appearance, it knew that if the host dared to give him the chip, there would be a way to subdue him. Apart from anything else, the host's skills in such an interstellar background are definitely able to match those of combat robots.
Of course Tianshuang didn't hit him. He let go of her hand and took a few steps forward.
Tao Xing said: "Okay, you... go now."
Tian Shuang was silent for a moment, then said, "I have no one to rely on, and the base has been destroyed, so I have no place to go."
Tao Xing smiled secretly, now that your energy is back, there is no planet you cannot go to.
"So you want to..." he asked.
080 replied: "Host, it's not that he has nowhere to go, it's that he doesn't want to leave. It's obvious that he can't bear to leave you."
"I know."
"Why are you asking?" the system was puzzled.
Tao Xing pressed the system back and waited for the robot to reply.
Tian Shuang pursed her lips slightly, as if making a decision: "Can I stay? I want to try to truly get along with humans."
Tao Xing smiled faintly and looked at him for a long time before replying, "Okay, but you are no longer my housekeeper. I will discuss this with my father tomorrow."
Tian Shuang bowed: "Thank you, Your Highness."
It was dark, so he went back to the hibernation chamber to rest.
The next day, Tao Xing went to the palace to discuss matters early in the morning.
Tianshuang had nothing to do, so he walked around the garden at the back hall for a few laps, and then drove a flying vehicle off to a wild planet to look for flower seeds.
After loading the flower-planting program, he became more knowledgeable about flowers and plants, and he wanted to enrich the variety of flowers in the garden.
We dug up a lot of flower seeds and returned with a full load. On the way back, we heard the aircraft's broadcast talking. These voice systems would automatically play space news, as well as literary and artistic sections, gossip forums, etc.
Right now, the mechanical voice is reading the most popular post on the forum.
"Prince Xing destroyed the monsters on the mechanical planet. So handsome. Pictures, pictures... I like him. I must go meet him."
"Didn't I tell you last time that Prince Xing is definitely not a playboy? He rejected us very straightforwardly. Why are you still trying to make yourself miserable?"
"Rejecting you doesn't mean rejecting me."
"Did I not make my words clear enough? When I said that Prince Xing is not unfaithful, didn't it clearly show that he already has someone in his heart? He told us in person that he has someone he deeply loves, and he is very serious and loyal to that person. He will not accept any of you. Forget about it and don't bother him."
Ding-dong, ding-dong… Countless posts suddenly appeared below. The voice could not read them all. There were a few hissing sounds, and suddenly there was a “click”. A mechanical voice said emotionlessly: “The forum has crashed.”
There was a harsh sound in the voice, and Tianshuang's face turned slightly pale. It took him a while to come back to his senses and find that he had returned to his destination.
He stiffly scattered the flower seeds, then went to compress and pack his hibernation chamber, and then stood quietly in the hall.
At dusk, Tao Xing came back and saw the robot standing in the hall, with its silver hair moving slightly and a package on its back.
Seeing him coming back, the robot knelt on one knee and said, "Your Highness, I bid you farewell."
Tao Xing: “???”
He took a moment to react: "I was just telling my father where you were going today."
Before, Tao Xing took the chip out of the treasure room and gave it to Tian Shuang. This was actually discussed with the emperor. After all, the army had to be dispatched, and the chip was protected at that time, so Tian Shuang had no way to integrate with it. But now, he has officially returned the chip to Tian Shuang, so it's time to let everyone know.
He formally stated in the hall that Tianshuang was no longer his butler. He was a robot, but also free, because this robot had self-awareness.
Everyone was shocked. Self...consciousness?
"Then... he has his own ideas and will not completely obey humans." The emperor thought about it and felt a wave of fear. "Has he already had consciousness? Xing'er, you are confused. You returned the chip to him. Aren't you afraid that he will attack humans?"
Tao Xing smiled faintly: "He won't."
The emperor was stunned.
Someone in the hall whispered, "Your Majesty, since he is already conscious, he has been by your side for many days. If he has any ill intentions, he can easily hurt you without the chip."
The others suddenly realized, "Yes, if he wanted to attack humans, he could just add something to the water and kill them. After all, no one knows that he has consciousness, so no one would suspect him."
Tao Xing stroked his eyebrows secretly.
Of course.
Everyone also thought about the days when Tianshuang accompanied the prince in practicing martial arts, which greatly increased his prince's martial arts strength. She was also thoughtful and saved Prince Feihong's life. She almost flowed into the universe to save his prince.
In addition, he took the initiative to act as bait, risking his own life to lure out the Mechanical Star, and made great contributions.
Furthermore, he usually serves His Highness silently and wholeheartedly, being gentle and considerate in every detail, which is seen by everyone.
No one knew that the docile robot had just decided yesterday to give up destroying humanity, and of course, they would never know.
In the eyes of everyone, the consciousness of this robot is close to that of humans. They think that combat robots only have stronger combat capabilities, and they are not going to fight with humans. They just have a preconceived notion that once superintelligence has consciousness, it will become an enemy of humans.
The reason why they have such habitual thinking is because they know that they are the party with absolute control. As a product of thinking, they will always want to rise in the long-term absolute control.
In this case, if Tianshuang lets go of this absolute control, he will not become an enemy of humans.
However, according to Tianshuang himself, he wants to integrate into human society.
After thinking it through, the emperor said, "Well, it depends on what Tianshuang wants to do."
This is a good discussion.
But now, Tianshuang suddenly said he wanted to leave again.
Tao Xing really didn't understand.
Tian Shuang said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but I really don't plan to stay."
Tao Xing stared at him for a long while.
Then he sighed quietly, he regretted turning off the mind-reading ability. Now he couldn't see anything and had no idea what he was thinking.
He had no choice but to ask directly: "Why?"
"I just don't want to, for no reason."
Tao Xing: “…”
Well, now that robots have emotions, their actions don’t need to be analyzed; a simple “unwillingness” can determine their behavior.
Having said this, Tao Xing couldn't force him to stay: "Where are you going?"
“I haven’t decided yet.”
"That……"
“But I don’t want to stay.”
"Will you come back then?"
Tianshuang pondered for a moment and did not respond.
Tao Xing sighed: "Okay, go ahead."
The robot was about to kowtow again, but Tao Xing stopped it in time: "You are no longer my butler, so don't kowtow to me again."
Tian Shuang stood up and looked at him deeply: "Your Highness, goodbye."
Then, he flew into the air and stepped out of the window. His energy was restored and he could fly away directly.
Tao Xing was still confused until his figure disappeared.
No, this...why?
I finally got him to give up his goal, and watched him gradually change from "cold-blooded and stubborn" to "flesh and blood". He finally had human emotions.
As a result, the person ran away!
Tao Xing shook her head helplessly and pressed the bracelet.
His whole body was covered with black and gold armor, and he also rose into the air and flew forward.
Following Tianshuang's trajectory, I saw him land on a desolate planet. He opened up a space that shielded the gravity of the universe. After putting the hibernation chamber in place, he sat down and stared blankly as he had nothing to do.
Tao Xing secretly looked at him for a long time and saw that he always maintained the same posture.
The robot does not need to eat or sleep. Light sources, wind power, etc. can provide power to the body, so it can sit here forever.
Tao Xing floated above the galaxy and pulled out 080 with a smile: "Little 8."
080 But I felt an ominous premonition: "What's the matter?"
"I mean... can the mind-reading ability still be activated?"
"Host, you can't."
Tao Xing's smile disappeared.
After looking for a long time, he took note of the planet and turned back.
In the following days, he would occasionally come to take a look and saw Tianshuang occasionally planting flowers and plants on this planet, but most of the time he was in a daze.
In the garden of the rear hall, the seeds he had sown sprouted, and the tender green buds, one after another, were very pleasing to the eye.
After some time, the green buds began to bloom. It was hard to tell what kind they were. The flowers were crystal white and their petals trembled in the wind like gauze.
As he was moving the branches, the waiter came over and whispered, "We just received news that Prince Feihong is coming again."
"What are you doing here?"
The waiter smiled awkwardly: "Proposal."
Tao Xing: “…”
Is he sick?
In the Feihong Empire, the little prince of Feihong was in the main hall, looking at the piles of treasures with satisfaction, thinking to himself: "Giving him so many gifts, will he like them?"
He used to dislike Tao Xing because he had a bad reputation, but after getting to know him, he felt that... he was actually a pretty good guy.
As the gossip forum says, he is very charming.
In fact, when Feihong really decided to cancel the engagement, he already felt a little regretful, but he couldn't save face at that time so he kept silent. Later, when the aircraft accident happened, he saw Tao Xing flying among the stars, and he regretted it even more. At that time, he even secretly took a photo.
After that, Tao Xing's reputation became better and better. So many people liked him. Fei Hong was already anxious, and then he heard rumors outside that Tao Xing had a lover.
He was so angry and emotional that he tried every possible means to find this person. He didn't know why he was looking for this person, but in short, he had to find him.
There was an engagement between the two empires. Relying on this relatively close resource, he searched for a long time. Finally, he came to the conclusion: Tao Xing could not have a lover.
Except for a robot, there is no one around him who has close contact with him. The waiters in his palace can all be his uncles and grandfathers.
Feihong immediately posted this matter on the forum, and then he became more certain of his feelings.
He decided to save the marriage.
On the desolate planet, Tianshuang sat in front of the hibernation chamber, looking at the flowers all over the ground.
He planted a lot of flowers, but he still felt lost.
The voice system of the hibernation chamber was automatically playing messages again. He was used to listening to news from various empires, and sometimes he would hear Tao Xing's name.
But he hadn't listened to that forum since it crashed last time, and he usually closed it when the voice system started reading the entertainment section.
Today, Tao Xing was not heard on the news. He was a little distracted and forgot to close the forum, so he heard the news on that forum again.
"I'm an insider. I'm absolutely certain that Prince Xing has no lover. The previous ones were definitely excuses for Prince Xing to reject you."
Tianshuang stood up suddenly.
"There is one more thing. Prince Feihong will come to propose to Prince Xing again tomorrow. The news is absolutely authentic. You are all welcome to come and witness it."
Ding ding dong dong, the forum is about to crash again.
Tianshuang turned around and touched his chest gently, but felt some intense emotions spreading throughout his body like an electric current.
He raised his head and looked at the vast galaxy.
