Chapter 78 Mechanical Core (2)
When the robot's arm was around Tianshuang's neck, its feet were already on the raised carpet.
According to calculations, he would stagger forward, loosen his grip, and let the person in his arms roll to the ground.
His feet moved and he did stagger, his hands loosened, but his neck was instantly hugged so tightly that he dodged a few steps forward due to inertia. The person in his arms did not roll to the ground, but hung on him and was carried forward by him.
Because he took a few more steps and was about to hit the table in the living room, Tao Xing pushed his arms from behind to slow down his pace, and then he managed to sit steadily on the table.
The robot's inertia had not yet slowed down, and it rushed right between his legs, facing him, and almost pinned him down.
Tao Xing blocked the trend in time and just stared at him from a close distance.
After a moment, Tian Shuang quickly stepped back, leaned forward and kowtowed: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I made a mistake and caused you harm. Please punish me."
Tao Xing glanced at him and said, "That's not a mistake. You planned it precisely."
He lowered his eyebrows and said, "Then how should I punish you?"
Tian Shuang said: "I have all the feelings that humans have. Your Highness, you can order people to whip me. If it doesn't make you feel better, you can increase the pain parameter, which will double my pain."
As he spoke, he slowly pulled open his clothes, revealing his smooth chest. He pressed hard on the heart area and then pulled again. With a "click", the area opened.
He was so much like a human that this action startled Tao Xing. Seeing the open heart, there were all slightly flashing circuits inside. The robot reached in and took out a circuit board: "Press this red button to increase the parameters."
It was as if the heart had been ripped out. The tiny lights flickered and jumped. Tao Xing waved his hand and said, "Forget it. This won't happen again."
Tianshuang stuffed the circuit board back and closed his heart: "Thank you, Your Highness."
"Get up." Tao Xing shook her head, "I still need to go to the bathroom."
Tian Shuang said: "I will continue to carry you."
"You're not going to drop me this time..." Tao Xing narrowed her eyes, "are you?"
"I will recalculate the route and avoid risks, Your Highness, rest assured."
"Okay." He didn't dare this time.
After returning safely, Tian Shuang asked again, "Your Highness, do you have any other instructions?"
"I'll take a rest, you don't have to do anything." Tao Xing didn't dare to let him "make decisions freely" again.
"yes."
"By the way, what do you usually do when I don't need you to do anything?"
"I'll go into hibernation."
"Okay, you can sleep."
"Yes, Your Highness, if you have any instructions, just call my name and issue an order, and I will wake up." Tianshuang said, bowed and took his leave. Tao Xing saw him walk into a white thing like a vertical cabin by the wall. After he stood inside, his eyes flashed red, and the cabin door closed automatically.
That should be a hibernation chamber. It probably needs to be charged and automatically repair short circuits and damages. After the door is closed, it will block any information from the outside world and will only open its eyes when a command is issued.
In this case, Tao Xing decided to take advantage of this moment to understand the situation first.
This robot has a prejudice against him. I remember when I was unconscious, I heard the waiter say that the original owner had a conflict with the emperor in order to get him, and even threatened to commit suicide. What exactly happened?
In this setting, people don't use smart computers, but use wristbands with communication devices. He shouted to the elderly waiter to come in.
After learning the details, Tao Xing couldn't help but take a deep breath.
No wonder Tianshuang has a problem with him.
Although this world has advanced technology and planetary leaps are common, they have never created super-intelligent machines. It's not that they can't create them, but that they don't want to.
According to the waiter, people used to use intelligent brains, which basically replaced all human activities. No matter what you wanted to do, you just had to think about it in your mind, and the intelligent brain would immediately connect to all intelligent machines to serve humans. At that time, people were also preparing for super-intelligent robots.
But over time, the intelligent brain has the ability to think independently.
"So it triggered an intelligence crisis?" Tao Xing asked. These things happened a long time ago. From all aspects, the original owner was a spoiled child who didn't care about anything else except eating, drinking and having fun. It was normal for him not to know about these things. Tao Xing asked boldly only after testing the waiter's reaction.
"That's not the case," the waiter said, "but it will be soon. If there hadn't been a natural magnetic storm in the interstellar space that destroyed all the intelligent sensing systems, we might have really been controlled by the intelligent brain now."
This magnetic storm made people wake up. It may be said that they were throwing the baby out with the bathwater. In short, people no longer create super-intelligence, but only ordinary intelligence, such as this bracelet, which can only obey human orders and cannot help humans make choices. The robot project was naturally stopped.
Tianshuang was the only super-intelligent robot created at that time. His original purpose was not to do housework, but to go to the battlefield. He himself was a combat robot.
As soon as he was manufactured, the construction work stopped. He has been in a dormant state since his "birth" for many years.
These years are enough for the original cosmic empire to be divided into several galaxy empires today.
Not long ago, the construction site was to be abolished, and the robot happened to be within the empire, so he asked the emperor how to deal with him. The emperor advocated peace and wanted to let him continue to hibernate, but the original owner saw Tianshuang and was attracted by his appearance at first sight.
The waiter described: "Your Highness, your eyes were wide open at that time."
Tao Xing: "Um, this..."
Afterwards, the original owner activated Tianshuang secretly, but Tianshuang hurt him without asking any questions.
This was the waiter's retelling, it wasn't stated explicitly, but Tao Xing roughly guessed it. It was probably that the original owner wanted to violate Tian Shuang. There was no such thing as a bed-mate in the combat robot's program, and he himself was a super-intelligent product with self-awareness, so he injured the original owner during the resistance.
When the emperor saw his son injured, he was furious and ordered his men to remove Tianshuang's chip and throw it onto a garbage planet.
But the original owner was not happy. How could he let go when he hadn't succeeded yet? He pestered Tianshuang to come back. In order to threaten her, he even climbed to a high place and jumped down, almost falling to his death.
The emperor had no choice but to compromise, but he absolutely did not dare to return the original chip to Tianshuang, so he had someone reinstall an ordinary chip for him and implant a butler program. This butler system... included bedside care, or in other words, bedside care was his main function.
The chip is like a person's heart, affecting his physical characteristics. His fighting ability disappears, and his housekeeping ability improves, but the chip is not a brain and cannot change his consciousness. Although the program includes the function of accompanying/sleeping, his consciousness is still rejecting it.
For a robot born for fighting, becoming a "sex slave" because of its original owner, it might be better for him to stay dormant forever.
After sorting out the facts, Tao Xing understood why the original owner died during the recuperation stage even though he had been rescued.
That was because he heard that Tianshuang was brought back. He was very emotional for a moment. When he first arrived, he felt something strange between his legs. How could a half-disabled person have such a strong desire? Sure enough, when the desire became strong, the blood rushed to his heart, causing a cerebral infarction and death.
You are a lustful ghost, you deserve to die.
From this perspective, it is understandable that Tianshuang hates the original owner.
"He wanted me to be unconscious at night because he was afraid that I would pull him to bed. He wanted to throw me down because he didn't want my leg to heal so quickly. At least during the period of leg injury, I might not have the strength to go to bed." Tao Xing analyzed, "It's okay. I'm no longer the original owner. I will repair our relationship."
It was late at night, so he took a rest. The next day, he woke up Tianshuang.
Thanks to the butler robots, the waiters would leave after completing their daily tasks, leaving them with enough private space. After a busy morning, Tianshuang was the only one left in the hall.
Tianshuang mainly provides more personal services, such as helping him dress and tie his hair.
The silver-haired robot knelt on the bed, propped up Tao Xing's upper body, took his coat, and lifted his arm.
Tao Xing took his hand and said, "No need to put it on me."
Tian Shuang stopped and said, "Your Highness, do you want to change your clothes?"
"No, you don't have to do these things for me." Tao Xing pressed his hand and said, "You don't have to do anything."
"Your Highness means that you don't want to wear it anymore?"
"Um."
"Yes." Tianshuang pulled her hand away from him and put her clothes back in place.
"Huh?" Tao Xing saw that his coat was taken away. No, what he meant was that Tianshuang didn't need to put it on him, he could do it himself.
"Your Highness, what instructions do you have?" Tianshuang turned around after hearing his puzzled voice.
Tao Xing raised his hand and said, "It's okay." Since the clothes had been put back, there was no need to ask him to get them back. Anyway, he had an injury on his leg and couldn't get out of bed, so it didn't matter whether he wore the coat or not.
Tianshuang walked back: "I will tie your hair for you."
"No, no, I can do it myself."
"How can I let you do it yourself? If someone sees me, they will blame me for not serving you well enough."
"This..." Tao Xing thought for a while, "Then I won't get the injection. I don't have to sleep anyway." He would not get out of bed anyway.
"Yes." Tian Shuang said, "Your Highness, do you have any other instructions?"
"Come and sit here, I want to talk to you." Tao Xing said with a smile.
The robot sat meekly beside the bed.
Tao Xing patted his shoulder and said, "You don't have to serve me, and you don't have to do these things anymore. Please believe that I am different from before. Well... I have regretted it since I broke my leg. I was wrong before, but now I have no ill will towards you and will not force you."
Tianshuang raised her eyes, staring at Tao Xing with her bright red eyes.
Tao Xing continued: "It's just that I need you to stay by my side and can't let you leave for the time being."
He is the target of the mission, so of course he cannot be kept away. Moreover, Tao Xing guessed that the man-machine war he launched in the original plot was probably related to the original owner. He hated the original owner, and may then evolve to hate humans. To complete the mission, the best way is to gain favorability in front of him.
Tian Shuang said: "I will always serve Your Highness."
"That's not what I meant. I just want you to stay and not have to serve me."
"Yes, Tianshuang understands." The robot responded. His face maintained a docile expression from beginning to end, and the amplitude of his smile did not change.
"Then..." Tao Xing was just saying this when he saw the waiter come in. "Your Highness, His Majesty has something to tell you."
Tianshuang immediately stood up and walked to the outer hall.
Your Majesty has passed on a message that according to the rules, irrelevant people must stay away, and robots are no exception.
The visitor said, "Tomorrow, envoys from several neighboring galaxy empires will visit us. Your Majesty will host a banquet to entertain them. This is an important event for the empire, and you must also attend..."
While Tao Xing was listening to him talking, he heard a "tapping" sound coming from the outer hall. The robot had something to say again, but he couldn't see it from his position.
The sound of the handwriting made him feel like ants were growing in his heart, but the person in front of him was talking about serious business, so it was not appropriate to let the robot in.
He could only sigh and listen to the man in front of him continue: "His Majesty has specifically instructed that Your Highness prepare in advance and be careful about your words and actions so as not to lose face for the empire."
"Okay." Tao Xing said.
The waiter was slightly startled. His Highness used to dislike these things the most, but after he fell, he became easier to talk to: "But your legs can't walk, so let Tianshuang stay by your wheelchair tomorrow." The wheelchair has a smart device and does not need to be pushed, but just in case, someone has to be by its side.
Tao Xing thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
Don't ask the robot to serve you servilely, but I believe he would be willing to go out and face such big occasions.
The tapping sound outside has died down. Never mind. It doesn’t matter if I didn’t hear your voice.
Outside the hall, the robot had a blank expression on its face.
The words above his head appeared and disappeared. If Tao Xing saw them, he would see a dense mass of them.
[Holding hands, pressing hands, stroking shoulders, triggering the signal for going to bed, he is hinting at going to bed.
'No need to dress me' triggers the undressing signal, 'No need to wear anything' triggers the naked signal, 'No need to tie my hair, I'm not going to sleep with you' triggers the sleeping/accompanying signal. In summary: he is asking to go to bed.
'You don't have to serve me, and you don't have to do these things again in the future', translation: You are here to accompany/sleep, don't do irrelevant things.
'I have no ill will towards you and will not force you', translation: I want you to take the initiative, otherwise I will have ill will towards you.
'I need you to stay by my side and can't let you go for the time being', translated based on the context: If you don't take the initiative, you will never be free.
'As long as you stay, there is no need to serve', translated according to the context: Your main task is to accompany/sleep.
Above, summary: He wants to sleep with me. ]
The robot's eyes flickered.
[Trigger keywords: exclusion.
Purpose: Not to sleep with him.
Solution: Increase the intensity of the effort to prevent him from doing this. ]
The circuits were flowing, with a slight crackling sound, as if the program had suddenly gone out of control for a moment, and the robot blinked.
[Note: He couldn’t even think about it.]
