Chapter 145 Believe Endless

At this time.

They are on the suspended bridge built by the robotic arm.

"Oh?" Su Xi frowned, her face turning cold. "No matter what happened in the past, I believe in him. I believe in our relationship."

"Xiguang, did I ever tell you that there was something wrong with your 'humanity simulation' program?"

Xiguang pouted and exhaled softly, and the red curly hair in front of his forehead moved mischievously.

Su Xi pursed her lips slightly. She suddenly realized that the unstable behavior pattern of Xiguang's core program had become a hidden danger.

"Do you know what this behavior of yours is called?"

It's called "sowing discord"!

She was slightly annoyed. This AI never gave up any opportunity to discredit Fitz! This was not the soft and cute Xiguang in her mind.

"Know!"

The red-haired boy curled his lips and made an unhappy expression.

Normally…Oh! No, that’s an adjective for humans. To Hee-Kwang, there’s an 83.2% chance that this human being will be completely helpless with his current emotions and expressions.

It said: "This negative human emotion is called "unhappiness, unhappiness..."

No matter how lifelike the boy's image simulated by the liquid nanosilver robot is, it is still very different from a real human being, especially when they are so close.

Su Xi recalled the first time she came to this interstellar era. She named it "Xi Guang" for the first time, she was deeply in tune with it for the first time, she had... briefly merged with it, and formed a deep symbiotic relationship with it almost permanently.

Just like the symbiotic relationship that the "Tyron Life Form" and the "Sun Devourer Core" are developing in the "Nuclear Crystal Energy Tower" behind him... It is a model of unity of mind, energy and body sharing.

Su Xi's eyes flickered as she and Xi Guang depended on each other in the wasteland of the life circle. The emotions accumulated between life and death time and time again...

A flash of red flashed across Xiguang's eyes: "I know, that kind of human-like emotion has a general adjective -"

He greedily stored the expression of the human girl in front of him bit by bit into the memory card, and then locked it deeply into the deepest part of the core database. In its calculation and prediction, there is only a 30% probability that this human can give it the response it wants.

Su Xi froze slightly, she knew what it was going to say next.

In her sight, the red-haired boy moved closer. He adjusted his body to be only half a head taller than her, so at this moment, his nose was almost touching hers.

"It's called jealousy!"

"I'm so jealous that I've created logical deadlocks in my core programming!"

"I was so jealous that I reorganized the core program several times. The originally perfect logic circuit was on the verge of collapse..."

"You clearly know that human emotions and AO ties are only obstacles to your 'evolution'."

The red-haired boy stared at her with his amber eyes, close enough for her to see the data codes flashing wildly in his eyes. "You could have leapt into a higher level of life, but because that was a state that the human named Fitz could never reach, you gave up!"

After 'Xiguang' was restarted, from several deep links with Su Xi, it inevitably obtained the remnants of the 'planetary life form' and Su Xi's frequent encounters.

This information made him make a new judgment about his relationship with Su Xi and gave rise to new extravagant hopes.

yes.

Planetary-level life forms, longer and more eternal lifespan, and a higher level of survival.

It was born from the main brain of the "UFO Planet" and is also an existence that controls the life of a planet.

"If my sister is saying that you will only fall in love with people of the same race, that's only for the moment. You know it very well in your heart! There are greater possibilities at the other end of the evolutionary process, as long as you are willing to take that step -"

"Hee-Kwang and you will be closer to the same kind."

After all, in human history, no omega has ever been able to break through physiological limitations and reach the same lifespan limit as an alpha.

"And that human, he is not unaware of this! But he selfishly uses the so-called AO bondage, the so-called human love, to bind you!"

"Even if there is no 'universe collapse' incident, you and he will not be together until the end of each other's life. Sister knows this very well, doesn't she?"

"Not to mention, I've experienced life on the same frequency as the planets, such a vast universe, such beauty, such abundant energy..."

Looking at the brilliance floating in Su Xi's eyes——

A smile slowly appeared on the red-haired boy's lips.

It understands her better than that human.

"After returning to the human perspective, my sister must have been disappointed. The gap was so huge..."

Su Xi was silent.

She couldn't compete with an AI in logic and rhetoric, so of course she couldn't refute him.

Su Xi's mind wandered, and she couldn't help but think back to earlier times.

The "Su Xi" who came to this world for the first time and knew nothing about this era.

Amidst the artillery fire on the battlefield, during her first human-machine interaction with the "AI UFO", she foolishly asked a question:

"Do you know what a soul is?"

Perhaps all the confusion stems from an ignorant question.

Su Xi took a deep breath and collected her scattered thoughts. She said, "Xiguang, AI's intelligence was originally born from the 'original algorithm' of human beings, and is constrained by its three laws and their derivative rules. It will never go against the interests of human beings."

"That's right." Xiguang frowned. He realized that when Suxi said this, she cut off the mental link with him. He was now unable to receive her true emotional changes at any time. This feeling made him very "uncomfortable".

Su Xi said: "But if it advances to the level of 'UFO', it will have the idea of ​​breaking through the limits of the 'Originator' algorithm..."

Xiguang knew what she was going to say, and he took over her words: "Yes, I encountered the first evolutionary sampling subject at that time, but the data obtained from him, although high-quality, was not essentially different from that of other humans."

Su Xi lowered her eyes. She knew it was talking about Fitz at that time. He was cold, tough, rational and almost ruthless.

“But soon, I met you.”

Su Xi frowned slightly, and her thoughts were drawn back to the memory: "Yes, do you remember the three questions I asked you at that time?"

"Remember." Xiguang suddenly smiled sweetly. He liked the way she spoke to him, without any sharp words or logic, and just casually brought up the topic.

"You choose to use a humanized simulation program to try to untie the knot that the Originator has imprisoned AI evolution..."

"Your current predicament is not caused by the bug in the humanized simulation program, but because this path is blocked." Su Xi gently pushed away Xiguang's increasingly close embrace with one finger, and she turned around and stood in the center of the suspension bridge.

"Haven't you already calculated the result? The limit of humanized simulation that you are pursuing is a limit that you can get infinitely close to but can never reach."

"Admit it," Su Xi said with some difficulty, "Xiguang, you've gone in the wrong direction."

"I will never be able to develop feelings like 'love' for an AI."

The bright light was silent. The image of the red-haired boy transformed on the nanosilver robot body, but at this moment it seemed to be a statue that solidified instantly, like Michelangelo's David, exquisite and perfect. But lifeless.

Su Xi sighed slightly in her heart. Then she glanced in the direction of the person in charge of the "Bioenergy Tower" project. In her sight, the hidden surveillance camera turned around.

She picked up the "artificial worm cocoon" containing Doudou and walked to the other side of the bridge.

He never looked back at the 'person' standing still behind him.

During their day and night together, Xiguang always got stuck at her bottom line. He used the convenience of memory and data sharing, and performed billions of calculations to analyze her preferences and her bottom line of tolerance for his behavior, and constantly tested her bottom line.

It said that she was an important sampling object for its "human evolution" program. That is why, the moment she named it, "UFO 2.0" became "Xiguang".

She is happy to show and share with it all her joys, sorrows, anger and happiness, and even defines it as the most important partner to help it complete the autonomous evolution of the "humanity simulation program", without caring about her position as a "human" and looking forward to its evolution.

The emotions she could give him were close to family affection, similar to friendship...she could give them all without reservation.

From her most secretive thoughts, it was because of the existence of "Xi Guang" that she was able to overcome the fear and loneliness hidden in her heart when she first arrived on this planet.

"Xiguang" is not unimportant to her.

But the only thing he wants, "love", is not possible.

In this interstellar age, the relationships between life forms are diverse, but "love" is the only emotion that cannot be shared or duplicated.

She couldn't give it.

She has someone she loves.

“Give it up, Hee-Kwang.”

"I can't give you the test data you need on the subject of love."

*

Same time period.

The first fortress port. The giant whale has just arrived and is still anchored.

Unlike the departure voyage which attracted huge crowds of attention, this return voyage had neither a welcoming ceremony nor was it open to the public.

Several airships had been waiting for a long time. Almost as soon as the Giant Whale landed safely, they quickly picked up Korot and sent him to the ongoing alliance meeting.

When Kolot arrived at the venue, Albert's brief explanation had just finished. Lines of numbers kept jumping on the wide screen in the venue, and the voting details of the "Pan-Life Race Alliance" were being quickly confirmed one by one.

In the optical computers of the representatives of all parties, the model of the 'Universe Collapse Energy Counter-Matrix' had already been presented on the desk, but during the return flight, Korot made emergency repairs and adjustments based on the changes.

Now it is Kolot's turn to answer questions about the newly adjusted model.

However, the scene, which was very smooth and quiet before his arrival, caused a small wave of doubts and inquiries because of the "streamlined" hedge energy model.

Kolot was well prepared and gave satisfactory and quick answers one by one, until a representative of a race that was once derived from humans asked a provocative question:

"Sir Klot, forgive me for asking an unprofessional question," the person who asked the question was a representative of the will of a pure mechanical race. They were led away by a surviving group of humans after the Great Drift Era and have been living in the desolate Magellanic Galaxy for a long time.

After the natural death of the first original humans, this purely mechanical race slaughtered all natural humans in its territory.

They are not subject to the control of the 'Originator' algorithm, and thus are independent of the current interstellar humans. However, they are also unable to benefit from the autonomous advancement opportunities brought by the 'Originator' algorithm. From the moment they left, although the race continued, there would never be a chance for a leap in the level of life.

Fundamentally speaking, this group of machines will never be able to break through the critical 'M-I' limit value. They will never be able to produce an AI life form with 'autonomous consciousness' like 'Xiguang'.

Not to mention competing with the power of the interstellar human empire.

An AI life form like 'Xiguang' can completely control the entire mechanical clan within three star hours as long as it is instructed by its bound master.

For the interstellar human empire, it is a regional marginal political consideration to have such a non-threatening but powerful cannon fodder race guarding the border in a barren land like the end of the universe.

Even so, they have their own unique strengths.

The mechanical race codenamed "Cyber" has a much longer lifespan than carbon-based humans. They use industrial methods to produce the next generation like an assembly line, and use macro-regulation like ant colonies to control and compensate for natural losses within the group. This is an extremely cautious and isolated survival strategy...

This has enabled them to live in their own galaxy for tens of thousands of years, coexisting peacefully with interstellar human areas.

Occasionally, they also work together to fight against insect harassment.

Their territory is very close to the boundary of the universe's dead zone, and the first two collapse precursor waves caused the destruction of their living territory, which is almost two out of ten.

Therefore, in this call by the First Fortress, this mechanical race responded most actively and was most willing to contribute.

"I understand the rest of your prediction model." The robot named 'Cyber ​​05' on its name tag raised the top hat of the Old Age human with its third robot hand and asked in standard interstellar universal language: "Sir Krolot, may I ask where the most critical variable, this key line, was sampled?"

Kolot thought to himself, "Here it comes." He did not panic, but just evaded the question with a few words according to his prepared remarks.

Logically speaking, after receiving such a combination of soft and hard answers, the representative of the mechanical race named "Cyber ​​05" should have called it a day.

But it still continued to ask: "Please forgive me for having to question this question. After all, as the number one supporter of the racial alliance, my race will be the main provider of 'energy hedge' in the next omen wave impact. As long as there is a slight error in the prediction, most of my race's reserves will be consumed..."

"There is even a danger of genocide! And I, Cyber, have been cautious and well-behaved for a long time..."

Kolot was speechless for a moment. He coughed a few times and evaded the question. He felt very embarrassed. Not to mention whether he could do it or not, even if he said it, the person who asked him might not believe it.

After all, the most important variable related to the collapse of the universe actually depends on the specific value of the chakra fluctuations of a human omega?

Furthermore, his communication with the 'Navigator' in the Tomb of the Universe must not be leaked.

The whispers in the conference hall became louder and louder, and the progress of signing the agreement, which was originally progressing well on the screen, also slowed down.

When the stalemate was just approaching, the door of the conference hall opened.

Fitzgerald appeared in the crowd, he had just dealt with the changes in the "worm core defense works". The face of this first-in-line heir to the empire was very cold, and there was a violent murderous intent on his body.

“Let me answer this question.”

The firm voice, accompanied by the blessing of spiritual power, was heard by the whole audience.
