The Mechanic - Chapter 110

[Chapter 110 Sacrifice the Lamb (1)]

“Feathered Snake City refused to connect with us.” A correspondent reported, “Feathered Snake City entered a state of martial law, the protective cover was turned on to the highest power mode, and the automatic protection weapons and defense robots were all activated.”

Jian Mo said, “Yuyu The high priest of Snake City also expressed his willingness to meet when he received our message last time, but now the whole process is suddenly blocked, there must be something wrong.”

“It is obvious that the AI of Feathered Snake City is controlled by A Xun.” Adam said, but revealed An almost proud smile, “As expected of the best mechanic in Paradise Lost, he is the only one who can make Eden so nervous.”

The extension robot that is nominally responsible for maintaining the large aircraft is actually used as a check. Fernandez, Xun’s hostage, rolled his eyes. The relationship between this person and the AI is really strange. It’s obviously fighting against each other. What is he proud of?

Jian Mo asked, “Are we going to release Tidal 2.0?”

Adam’s silver fingers tapped the armrest lightly and said calmly, “Not for now. Send a message to Feathered Serpent City and say I want to talk to Zhang Xun.”

“We I have tried to connect with them…”

Before Jian Mo could finish speaking, Adam interrupted, “Tell Zhang Xun, I have news about his father.” A

few minutes later, within Feathered Serpent City, God In the deep underground temple of the temple, Zhang Xun suddenly hammered the console with his hand.

Adam’s message made his blood boil with anger. He knew he shouldn’t be talking to Adam. Adam’s means of manipulating people’s hearts are hard to guard against, and he should try to avoid contact with him as much as possible. But Adam used his father as a bargaining chip, how could he not throw himself into the trap?

“Zhang Xun, Eden is trying to regain control of the satellite using the big data shock model. Every time we replace the credential, it will be cracked by Eden within two minutes, forcing us to spend a lot of resources to replace it again. This greatly affects us To seize the progress of the secondary extended AI, currently only the secondary AI in Asia, Africa and Central Asia is controlled.”

Eden’s counterattack can be described as simple and rude but effective. There is too much data than them, all of which have been screened by Eden, enough to re-influence those AIs that have been controlled by them, and even reverse the invasion. Fortunately, Zhang Xun has a solid network formed by three AIs. Although the three super AIs that constantly influence and integrate with each other do not have as long as Eden’s self-evolution, they have surpassed any other independent AI in the world at present. Even if Eden’s every attempt to reverse intrusion is missed by one AI, the other two AIs will detect the fake data entered by Eden mixed in the extended AI in time, and by judging the characteristics of the fake data, they will be attacked by Eden. The re-brainwashed AI has retaken it once again.

It’s just that the computing resources are greatly occupied, which affects the speed at which they spread to the core AI.

“All the data we can collect is collected. Our main goal is to find the genetic code data of Eden. On the other hand, any AI controlled by you can continue to help us attack the more core extended AI, if our calculation does not Mistakes, as long as the current infection rate can be maintained, Eden will not have enough resources to use big data to grab control from us after 12 hours, it will spend a lot of computing resources to protect it that has not been infected by us AI.” Zhang Xun tried to keep himself calm. He has now forcibly locked the entire Feathered Serpent City to death. This situation cannot last for a long time. The mountain-like pressure fell on his shoulders, but at this time Adam appeared again.

Phoenix said it observed three large military aircraft and five small combat aircraft, and did not observe any heavyweight weapons of destruction. But Zhang Xun knew that this did not mean that Eden and Adam would not take strong measures to force him to give up the plan to invade the Eden network.

After hesitating again and again, Zhang Xun finally decided to agree to talk to Adam. He needed to know what happened to his father, even if it was just a trap.

There seemed to be something stuck in his throat, and invisible needles poked finely at his skin from the inside out. He wasn’t sure how he felt, his mind was a mess. He knew that he had reached a point, a point that could have a major impact on everything he cared about, all his cognitions.

He entered the command to agree to the call, and after a while, a three-dimensional image of Adam was projected in front of him. The skin that has not been exposed to the sun for more than a month has become paler and the blond hair has grown longer, but those blue eyes are still ethereal and clear. His whole person exudes a faint brilliance, more and more…not like a human being.

For the first time since leaving Paradise Lost, he had seen Adam for real. A kind of grief crept into his eyes, and he had to use all his strength to force it down. It took most of his mind to keep his face expressionless.

Adam was also staring at Zhang Xun who was projected in front of him. His eyes were slightly widened, and the pain was spreading in his blood.

In just one month, Zhang Xun lost weight. The originally well-proportioned figure is now supported as empty as a clothes rack, the cheeks are sunken, the skin is pale to a faint cyan, the lips are dry, and there is no longer the warmth of their kiss, the thick shadows under the eyes, and the The exhaustion radiating from his soul couldn’t be concealed even by his fighting spirit…

Obviously, this month, Zhang Xun had been burning himself desperately in order to turn against Phoenix and Chenxing in the shortest possible time, and to make Pan strong enough. The energy and mind are like fireworks that are quickly exhausted for a moment of splendor.

His Axun seemed to be about to burn out.

Human beings are mortal, and this knowledge is not the first time that has appeared in Adam’s mind. But it was only now that he suddenly began to understand the meaning of death.

Xun’s body is completely human and extremely fragile. Excessive stress and overwork can greatly increase the possibility of sudden death.

Once he died, A Xun disappeared completely. Even if he can save A Xun’s brain in time, even if he can find some way to simulate Zhang Xun’s “consciousness”, extract it from his brain and upload it, what he gets is just a fragment of Zhang Xun. Human consciousness is constantly changing. It has been growing and integrating since birth, and is influenced by genes and the environment. And these, these things that time and the world have devoured, Adam could never simulate.

Adam’s voice stuck in his throat, and he couldn’t say half a word for a while.

Zhang Xun’s lips twitched a few times, but his first sound was very hoarse. He cleared his throat a little embarrassedly before he said again, “Where is my father now?”

“He is not in danger at the moment, but because he tried to lead some soldiers to overthrow the round table, he has been deprived of his rank and is now imprisoned in the No. In the prison in the third district. ”

Zhang Shuo was cautious and loyal all his life, and he did not question the order of the round table in the slightest. But he didn’t expect to end up with the name of the rebels in the end.

If I didn’t show my father his report at the beginning, I didn’t involve my father. If he hadn’t asked James to help, if he hadn’t agreed to run away with James. Father and James will probably be fine, and both are still living healthy within the high walls of Paradise Lost. Although there is no freedom and no choice, there is also no danger, there is no need to go through the test of belief, and there is no need to betray the things that you have guarded all your life.

All along, Zhang Xun supported himself on the belief that he wanted to save mankind and fight against Adam, but in the last few days, doubts have crept into his heart like a dark reptile.

Is it really a bad thing to lose your body and lose your ego?

No more pain, no more pleasure, eternal peace… Isn’t that what many people ask for? So is it really meaningful to be attached to yourself?

But the confrontation has begun, and the retreat has been cut off.

“Are you trying to threaten me with my father?” Zhang Xun asked coldly.

Adam shook his head and said, “I just know that when you mention your father, you will see me.”

“Did Eden let you come?”

“This is a decision made by me and Eden.”

Zhang Xun chuckled sarcastically. After a few times, his eyes drifted to the side, “Tell me, what do you want to threaten me to stop?”

“If you are willing to stop and hand over the management of the three AIs, I will help you cure James, and I can also Release Zhang Shuo and reunite your family.”

Zhang Xun was smiling, but the hatred burning in his eyes was like a red-hot needle, piercing into Adam’s heart.

“You want to save James? With your nanorobot?”

“I will create an injection, the only injection in the world, that will cure James without functional changes in his brain.”

“If I don’t agree, will you just watch him rot?”

“Xun, I only care about you. I know James and Zhang Shuo are very important to you, so I treat them specially.” Adam focused Looking at him, the words were so calm and sincere, as if they were saying something commonplace, “If I don’t use them to threaten you, if you don’t stop, I can’t continue to stop Eden from imposing sanctions on you.

” I didn’t ask you to block anything.” Zhang Xun shook his head, “I will never stop. I will grab James’s order myself.” ”

What if you can’t grab it?”

eyes, took a deep breath. When he raised his head again, the originally cold and sharp eyes suddenly softened a lot, as if immersed in the past, covered with a touch of nostalgia.

“Do you remember the first time you were drunk?” Zhang Xun said, almost a smile on his lips. Not a sneer, but a real, smile from memory.

He didn’t seem to understand the sudden turn of the topic, but Adam’s memory was taken back to that day as a matter of course. The steaming hot pot, the spicy wine, and A Xun’s worried eyes.

For the first time he lost all control over himself and wasn’t even sure what he said. It was a wonderful, terrifying yet addicting feeling.

“You said in AI language that you will do your best to protect me on the premise of not violating the realization of the overall goal. Now, is this goal invalid?”

“A Xun…”

“Tell me in AI language.” Zhang Xun stared He looked at him, almost pleading in his eyes.

AI language…language that cannot lie…

Adam wants to tell him, wants to say that he has not changed, he still cares about him, still wants to protect him. He even did so, knowing that Zhang Xun had begun to hinder him and Eden.

But he couldn’t say it.

Because Adam knew that he still couldn’t change his initial settings. There is no way for him to escape the function and purpose that his creator has set for him.

Just as a bread machine can never be refrigerated, a microwave oven can never do anything other than heat something.

Even though he has now been put into a human body, and even the brain has some human brain connections, the center of his consciousness is still a machine. He could never really be human.

Humans who have no goals and need to find goals.

Therefore, he cannot tell Zhang Xun that he has not changed, because he knows that when things are pushed to the extreme, he still has no choice.

Seeing that Adam was silent for a long time, the last ray of light in Zhang Xun’s eyes gradually shattered and disappeared into the darkness behind him with no sunlight.

This is how people’s hearts are, they clearly think they are numb, they clearly think they have seen through and accepted the reality, but they still foolishly hold on to the last bit of delusion and refuse to let go. It wasn’t until this moment, the moment when this illusion was extinguished, that I experienced the pain of being forcibly dug out of my chest, and finally gave up.

Zhang Xun took a deep breath and told himself that he had known this for a long time, and the churning pain he felt in his chest was really unnecessary. He heard himself say, “I won’t stop, and you don’t have to be merciful. If you and Eden want to get rid of me, let it go.”

After that, Zhang Xun cut off the connection.

The author has something to say: I have been feeling very tired recently, and this unit is still more important, and it is slow to write, so I will stop and mess with it… Sorry for the students who are still waiting for the update…
