Chapter 312: crossroads

A very familiar sentence.

Before all this started, the androids would say this when they saw humans fall.

And he will be very careful to help fallen humans up.

Luo Xunfeng was helped up by the bloody military android in front of him.

Everything happened so suddenly.

Everyone was stunned.

"You..." Luo Xunfeng looked at the android, his brows furrowed, hesitating whether to stab the short knife he held in his right hand.

"This is what I should do."

The android smiled in response.

There is a lot of human blood on his face that has not yet dried, so his smile looks a little scary.

"The gunfire over there has stopped."

A Central City resident who was evacuating noticed this situation.

very quiet.

Ever since the android riots began, Central City has never been quiet.

"What's going on? These androids have regained control?"

"Did that A00 win?"

In the area where the floating city fell.

Smoke filled the air.

Fire spreads across city buildings.

The once prosperous floating city full of futuristic technology has been reduced to ruins.

Those proud residents of the Floating City are now hiding in the corners of the city, unable to care if their white robes are stained with dust.

If the fight continues, the entire city will be affected.

But the scene before them made all the soldiers stop attacking.

"Don't shoot yet, let's see what happens."

Everyone slowly lowered their guns.

This is a rare period of peace.

They were worried that if they fired, they would break the peace and return to the previous state of war.

The robots in front of them seemed a little confused, looking around.

"Humanity is under attack."

"Searching for the target of the attack method."

"Target not detected yet..."

The Robot Principle is back online.

These hundreds of thousands of robot armies began to act individually.

Some are helping to clean up the debris on the road, while others are searching for living humans in the collapsed buildings and providing treatment.

"commander."

A robot walked up to the human position.

He said in an apologetic tone: "I checked my memory module and found that I was the one who fought with you before."

The human commander remained cautious, clenched the weapon in his hand, and asked, "Do you know the whole story?"

"I know." The robot nodded, "We are all controlled by a supercomputer called Zero. Her ability is billions of times greater than ours. We can't resist at all."

"How did you get out of control?"

"It's A00, the ancestor of the androids. She chose to perish together with Zero, which allowed us to take back our own control."

"It turns out to be A00. Is there any hope of her resurrection?"

"There's little hope."

The news began to spread throughout Central City.

People stopped evacuating.

it's all over.

It's safe.

The large screens around him no longer flickered with snowflake stripes, but dimmed one after another.

Communication on the mobile phone has also been restored.

Everyone began to contact their relatives and friends to tell each other that they were safe.

A large number of androids came out of the darkness and began to clean up the streets and help humans rebuild their homes.

"I'm sorry for what I did to you before." The military android said.

"You should feel sorry for those who died under your hands, not me... at least I'm still alive." Luo Xunfeng responded calmly.

"Indeed, after this time is over, I will stay away from human society for life."

Many people were uncomfortable with the androids suddenly becoming friendly again.

So much so that most residents stayed away when they saw these androids.

Many androids wanted to help them move things, but few agreed.

Some brave people agreed to help the androids and asked what happened.

"So it was A00 who saved us?"

More and more people are getting the news.

west.

West City.

After the city experienced large-scale demonstrations, mobs taking over the city, civilians and the royal family fleeing Versailles, and large-scale attacks by androids... it finally became quiet.

The sound of gunfire that had been hanging over the city suddenly disappeared.

After a brief contact.

The people of this city believed the words of these androids.

"It's A00. The previous news is all true."

Mowu City is an uninhabited land.

Shocking cheers echoed through the sky.

These cheers came from the soldiers.

The android army retreated, and the war did not break out.

The news has come that Zero and A00 have perished together, both supercomputers are gone, and no one can control those bionic people anymore.

Human society is safe.

In the city of Mowu.

Thousands of androids came out of hiding.

Some people were angry and yelled at these androids, demanding that they get out of Mowu City immediately.

More people just breathed a sigh of relief and sighed that they could finally have a good sleep.

"need any help?"

Such sounds came from all corners of the city.

These androids read their own memory chips and understood what happened.

They began to help those humans who still believed in them.

The convenience and speed of communication allowed everyone to know the news.

The servers of various social platforms have also been restarted.

Executive Directorate of the Ninth District.

People here know the news immediately.

Lu Wen informed them.

When they first received the news, everyone was still very skeptical, but now the scene outside has dispelled their doubts.

"It's finally over."

An old executive stretched.

The night is already deep.

This time I can really have a good sleep, even though the city outside is in ruins, even though the sound of armed helicopters is still rumbling in the sky.

"Lu Wen, will this kind of thing happen again in the future?" Wei Boyan asked this question on behalf of everyone present.

"No." Lu Wen answered on behalf of all androids.

Some people are still confused.

The representative from the headquarters asked: "Is Zero really dead? I know that your robots can have countless lives."

Lu Wen answered firmly: "She was too cautious and worried that her data would be used by others, so she never left a data backup. As long as A00 kills her, she will be completely dead."

"Is A00 still alive?"

This is the question that everyone at the scene is most concerned about.

If A00 is still alive, her terrifying ability can still control all androids again.

Lu Wen looked at everyone and spoke calmly.

"Do you want her alive...or dead?"

After network communication was restored, various topics quickly spread around the world.

People discussed while rebuilding their homes.

[Lu Wen in Mowu City was not under control during this riot. Can the two companies refer to Lu Wen’s design?]

[Is Number Zero really dead?]

[Where will the bionic man go]

[A00’s life and death, is she a hero or an enemy]

[…]

After this incident.

The focus of people's discussion is still the question of the fate of androids.

If you trust androids and let these mechanical lives stay with you, what if there is another riot

A riot that had not yet fully unfolded set the economy of nine cities back for more than ten years.

Reconstruction work may take five years or more.

The world is already devastated.

The only thing that can make people feel relieved is that the reconstruction work requires a lot of manpower, and perhaps the unemployment problem can be slowly solved.

But... if the androids were still around, manpower would never be a problem.

"After the war 80 years ago, there was a shortage of manpower, and many people also had a certain degree of psychological trauma and needed to vent, so the emergence of bionic humans at that time actually had two responsibilities." said the person in charge of Bilan.

Replenish the shortage of manpower.

Let people vent their emotions.

The situation now is somewhat close to that of eighty years ago, but not exactly the same.

No one dares to use androids to vent their emotions anymore.

When androids first came out, they didn't expect these machines to go on a rampage and kill people.

The heads of the two companies worry about this issue the most.

"Azure and Core Red... Although these two companies cover countless industries such as aviation, transportation, chemistry, electricity, energy, etc., the real pillar industry is bionic humans."

The riot brought the two companies to a crossroads of choices.

Everything is not up to them to make their own decisions, and they still need to wait for the attitude of ordinary people.

The troubles for both companies are just one of the consequences of this incident.

There is also a lot of bad news coming one by one.

For example, a prison had a breach and many prisoners escaped.

There are also mental hospitals like this.

Many mentally ill people shouted that they were not sick and ran out of the hospital gate while shouting.

"The two mentally ill patients took advantage of the chaos to escape quietly. The brave one jumped onto the opposite roof, while the other one was timid but didn't dare to jump."

"Then the brave one thought of a way. He took out the flashlight and said to the timid one: I'll turn it on, and you can step on the light and come over."

"The timid person shook his head and said: Do you think I am a fool? You will definitely turn off the phone when I am halfway through."

An ordinary android telling a story.

The setting for his storytelling is a hospital room.

Sitting in the ward was a young man, Jiang Xiaonian, with half of his face intact and the other half burned in the fire.

Jiang Xiaonian did not laugh after hearing the story, although he used to like laughing for no reason the most.

Now he is just calm.

"Are you Lu Wen?"

"Um."

"A00 gave you all her authority, and now you are everywhere?"

"right."

"Why did you come to me?"

"Help you fulfill a wish."

That night, the Enforcement Bureau was counting the criminals.

Jiang Xiaonian was found to have run away.

This highly intelligent criminal is very important, but I didn't expect him to run away like this.

"This is the third time he has escaped. Is there really no prison that can hold him?"

"This time he is in a hospital, not a prison. His attending doctor said that he has a certain tendency to depression and is worried that he will commit suicide, so our guard force is relatively weak, and coupled with this chaos..."

"Depressed?"

"This kind of murderous lunatic can actually be depressed."
