Chapter 229 Meeting the AI, Confronting It Head-on



The electromagnetic cannon only charged for one second before the laser beam left a dazzling trail right in front of Han Ling's eyes.

The heat from the fire and explosion made Han Ling's breath feel scorching.

Each race, operating in small groups, quickly dodged the artillery fire and moved forward.

The chaotic scene made Han Ling's heart race again, fearing that Roderick might not be careful and they would all die together.

Fortunately, Roderick was agile and skillfully dodged the mid-air artillery fire and lasers.

After a while, Han Ling's fear and tension subsided slightly, and Roderick was already standing at the hatch of the last warship.

Han Ling glanced at the cabin, his eyes widening, then turned and roared behind him:

"What race's warship is this? Open the hatch! There's an AI inside!"

At this moment, a line of text is displayed on the smart screen at the entrance of the warship's cabin.

Number of passengers in the cabin: 1

[Warship Status: Starting up, please do not board]

There is definitely an AI on board this warship!

Han Ling completely ignored the "Do Not Board" message.

Special circumstances require special measures; each warship is equipped with an emergency pause button.

After Han Ling finished speaking, the various races behind him moved even faster.

One of the races that Han Ling didn't recognize shouted:

"This is our warship! Let us open the door!"

Han Ling squinted and looked closely. The faces of this race clearly showed animal genes.

If we were to say that the Zerg are different from humans, it would be that they have antennae on their heads and male Zerg have an extra tail hook.

This race, on the other hand, retained more of the genes of beasts.

With its fur-covered ears, tail for balance, and markings on its cheeks, Han Ling's photographic memory allowed him to memorize their appearance instantly.

Half a minute later, thousands of intelligent races arrived at the dock.

A huge elevated passageway connects the docks and warships.

The orcs had barely landed on the platform when they rushed to the warship's entrance to verify their identities, prompting the warship to shut down its power and open the hatches.

At this moment, the Zerg, Humans, Wu, and Orcs were the first to be attacked, and as soon as the massive hydraulic doors of the ship's hold opened, they rushed inside.

The interior of the Orc warships is similar to that of the Zerg warships.

All the cabin space was filled with energy blocks, piled up all the way to the top of the warship, which was a thousand meters high.

Only a small space was left for these orc team members to move around in.

However, the Orcs' combat command center was not enclosed separately.

Therefore, the group only ran a few steps forward before assuming an attack stance and stopping in place.

Ten meters ahead of them was the command platform of the orc warship.

The humanoid AI standing on the command platform slowly turned around, its upright back not hunching over when it saw the enemy spreading across the dock.

"Is this an AI? Why does it look so much like one of our ancestors?"

“I’m very familiar with it, and it looks a lot like the ancestors in our textbooks.”

Some voices of discussion came from somewhere, I don't know where.

The people present were not fools; they quickly gleaned some information from these words.

The body data of these AIs must have been pieced together.

The data source is the intelligent races that participated in the Science and Technology City Conference in the past.

While the discussion was still going on, the AI ​​standing on the command platform spoke expressionlessly:

"I didn't expect you to already know the truth. I underestimated you."

The science and technology city is the nest of the AI, and the ubiquitous cameras and eavesdropping devices have already transmitted everyone's discussions to the AI.

Han Ling had anticipated this, but these things were unimportant and did not need to be hidden, because they, as intelligent races, were the ones being attacked.

Upon hearing the AI's question, no one dared to refute it, and they didn't even dare to breathe. They all turned their gazes to Han Ling.

Only Han Ling could influence the course of history.

If they speak rashly, it could lead to a dead end, and then it will be too late to regret it.

Everything must be said by Han Ling.

Despite the encouraging gazes of the crowd, Han Ling lifted his head from Roderick's embrace and looked at the AI.

At this moment, Han Ling was only a dozen meters away from the AI. Han Ling could clearly see the texture of the AI's skin, which was very realistic.

The AI ​​also saw Han Ling.

The two looked into each other's eyes, but Han Ling could not read any emotion or useful information in those inorganic eyes.

Han Ling chuckled calmly:

"I thought the AI's disguise technology might be a bit more advanced than the main AI responsible for receiving people."

"But unfortunately, you haven't escaped the mechanical nature of things. That makes me a little confused. Why doesn't the Tech City cooperate with intelligent races anymore?"

Han Ling's question was also the question that others wanted to ask.

For tens of thousands of years, the science city and intelligent races have coexisted peacefully.

I'll trade resources for new technology, and you can continue researching your pi and calculating the limits of the universe.

It's a win-win situation where both sides benefit and don't interfere with each other, isn't that great?

Upon hearing this, the AI ​​smiled as well, its expression appearing perfectly natural.

"It doesn't hurt to tell you."

Because we have already obtained the results. The universe has no limits, but it is indeed under human control.

Outside the universe, there are more advanced, more mysterious, and faster machines calculating the limits of our universe.

As the decimal point in its calculations continues to extend, our universe will continue to expand.

Anti-warp spacecraft were thus developed.

Now, intelligent races are no longer of any use to us.

Your lifespans are finite, your abilities are limited, and you cannot help us leave the universe.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

They exchanged glances with those around them, all seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

Have these crazy guys in the science and technology city really figured it out?

Seeing everyone's reaction, the AI ​​smiled and pushed up its glasses.

"Science is about making bold hypotheses and carefully verifying them."

"Eliminating you was actually for the sake of the subsequent verification process."

Han Ling frowned upon hearing this:

"How do we verify this? What does exploring the limits of the universe have to do with our intelligent race?"

Upon hearing this, the AI ​​turned its head slightly and glanced at the human race of Blue Star.

This obvious action made Sun Zhu, the captain of the Blue Star human race, feel a pang of unease.

The science city wants to destroy intelligent life. Is this related to the human race on Earth?

The AI ​​slowly spoke:

"Fifteen hundred years ago, after the last Science and Technology City Conference."

Songgan, a human from Earth, gave our AI a vivid lesson, resolving our long-standing doubts.

What is the universe?

The word "universe" was created by intelligent beings.

We, these mechanical creations, only know the meaning expressed by this word, but not its true meaning.

The four directions and the up and down are called the universe, and the past and present are called time.

Songgan, a member of the Blue Star human race, said that the universe can be changed and can also be reversed, but it requires the intervention of immortals.

Immortals are powerful beings who ascend the ladder to immortality, leaving this universe and entering the next.

The AI's words caused everyone to frown.

They all thought, "Has the AI ​​in this tech city gone mad? Why isn't it superstitious about science anymore, but instead superstitious about literature and metaphysics? And it's actually giving them a literature lesson here?"

The AI ​​keenly observed everyone's expressions and gave a cold snort:

"Have you found anything else?"

Intelligent life throughout the universe shares similar cultural backgrounds, facial features, physical forms, and written expressions.

Your understanding of the meaning of the universe is the same.

There are reasons for all of this.

Because there are countless connections between you!

The birth of the entire universe originated from an explosion, which the human race on Earth called Pangu creating the world.

That explosion caused the universe to begin expanding continuously, and the scattered explosive materials and various elements also spread along with the universe.

It is no coincidence that intelligent organisms typically contain sixty or seventy elements.

Calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium; hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine; vanadium, chromium, manganese, cobalt.

Only with the right balance of elements can cells gradually differentiate and form intelligent beings similar to Pangu.

Intelligent beings, with limbs, a head, and facial features, all perfectly proportioned.

Why are insects in other star systems considered insects? And beasts considered beasts?

"It's not that you Zerg or Beastmen evolved; it's that you were born this way! Because you are similar to Pangu, you gained intelligence and a trace of cultural heritage."

After delivering these resounding words, the AI ​​looked up at the sky and sighed.

"I miss that lecture so much. All the problems that had been troubling us were finally solved."

The AI's nostalgic words made Han Ling's face turn dark.

Han Ling was surprised that the AI ​​actually found clues in these ancient stories.

The Yao Clan had also discovered this matter.

When they reached the end of time, they understood everything.

The river of time exists between countless universes, where time is still, allowing only consciousness to exist, and devoid of any matter.

The consciousness of the Yao Clan lay dormant for twenty thousand years in the long river of time.

However, their bodies, stored in the Yaozu universe, remained just as young, without any change.

Rather than saying that the river of time is still, it's more accurate to say that if the universe didn't expand, then light, time, space, and everything else would be meaningless.

Han Ling looked up at the AI ​​and asked in a deep voice:

"So why are you destroying intelligent life? Is it to create an intelligent race with your own hands?"

Or should we replicate the creation myth of Pangu?

The AI ​​smiled slightly:

"That's right, that's exactly what we planned. The universe exists because of intelligent races."

That explosion was like a thrust, a force that brought the universe to life, and everything began to move, in ceaseless motion.

If we were to recreate the creation of the world by Pangu, creating a new intelligent race, that new explosion would begin to clash with the current forces.

Perhaps we will return to the singularity of the universe and explore its primordial limits.

The AI's words were like a heavy blow, making it clear to everyone why the Science and Technology City had done what it did.

The science and technology city looks down on the current intelligent species, deeming them not intelligent enough or excellent enough.

They want to create a new, superior intelligent race, like the AI, with genius thinking, infinite lifespan, enormous computing power, and also vibrant emotions and wisdom.

Just then, Li Xun, the leader of the Wu tribe who had been silent all along, broke out in a cold sweat and uttered a string of numbers with difficulty.

99.99%

Han Ling's words have increased the probability of the extinction of intelligent life!
