Chapter 282: Original Brain

Shang Jianyao stared at the sentence on the beach for a few seconds, then looked back at the island with only natural products such as sunshine, green trees, and lawns.

He lowered his head again and added half a sentence after the original sentence:

"Afraid of not having a goal?"

After writing these words, Shang Jianyao stood up.

His body suddenly split and turned into a full eight Shang Jian Yao.

Then, they got busy on the island, chopping down trees, moving stones, pulling grass, digging soil, and forcibly built a very simple house.

At this time, Shang Jianyao felt tired, and the nine figures merged into one, and slowly exited the "Sea of Origins".

Before he completely returned to reality, he saw the "distressed house" he built collapse silently, inch by inch.

Everything is back to normal.

On the bedside of the bedroom, Shang Jianyao opened his eyes, and what he saw was a peaceful darkness and a faint glow from the window.

He frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

Thinking and thinking, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, while eating breakfast, Shang Jianyao described his attempt to the other members of the "Old Tune Group".

Although Long Yuehong couldn't interpret what this meant, he nodded and said with an encouraging attitude:

"I think it's a good thing, at least the island has reacted and is no longer static."

"Yes." Bai Chen agreed.

Jiang Baimian also nodded lightly and said:

"I think so."

Long Yuehong, who was unanimously affirmed, was suddenly a little flattered, but also inexplicably panicked, fearing that her judgment was wrong and misleading Shang Jianyao.

Jiang Baimian pondered and continued:

"I think what you fear may be 'nothing can change', you are afraid that you have given everything and lost everything, and the world will remain the same as it is now, only the sun, green trees, lawns and water will never change."

"It's a bit like." Shang Jianyao nodded.

"After that, we will try more in this direction, and we will try to find a way to win the battle based on the feedback." Jiang Baimian gave encouragement with a smile, "Well, this may have to be linked with reality."

According to her understanding, it often takes years or even decades for awakened people to reach the end and find themselves in the "sea of origin". After all, breaking the mountain is easy, but breaking the heart is difficult. On a certain island, there is no way to break through.

Like Shang Jianyao, who has crossed two islands in just a few months, very few, there is no need to worry at all.

After another two days, some members of the robot guard led by Genawa brought back the remains of many colleagues from the Chilar Mountains.

The "Old Tuning Team" was notified by this and could talk to "Yuannao".

Downstairs in the town hall, Shang Jianyao, Jiang Baimian and others left the jeep one by one, and under the guidance of the auxiliary robot, they went all the way to the top floor and entered a place that looked like a small conference room.

There is a long table, a dozen chairs, and a shelf for documents and books, and a super-large LCD screen hangs on the wall.

Genova, wearing a dark green military uniform, pointed to a few chairs facing the screen, and said in a slightly synthetic baritone voice:

"You sit down.

"It's not convenient for me to sit in."

Jiang Baimian and the others nodded and found their seats.

Genova immediately left the conference room and closed the door.

As soon as he went out, Shang Jianyao stood up, sometimes studying the audio equipment, and sometimes observing the direction of the line.

Finally, he approached the file shelf on the side and returned with a book.

"What is it?" Jiang Baimian looked at him curiously.

Shang Jianyao sat down and displayed the cover of the booklet in his hand.

It is orange-red, painted with a large number of "0" and "1", and the name is written in both gray soil and Honghe language:

"Intelligent Human Expatriation Work Manual"

Whoa, Shang Jianyao casually flipped through the book.

Jiang Baimian moved his body closer and spent time reading with him:

“…it is forbidden to try human food…”

“… do a good job in recycling waste components…”

"...can't buy or sell core modules..."

“…the degree of humanization must remain between 30% and 70%…”

“… pay attention to the behavior of colleagues and, if necessary, correct them…”

Seeing this, Jiang Baimian smiled and whispered:

"Looks weird..."

"I didn't say I couldn't make friends with humans." Shang Jianyao showed a relieved expression.

Long Yuehong looked at them and moved a little nervously:

"Aren't you nervous?"

It's time to talk to the mysterious "Original Brain"!

This is something that occupies a very important position in a major force!

Shang Jianyao responded to Long Yuehong:

"Yeah, be nervous.

"If we said something wrong, it might have ordered Tarnan's robot guard to force us to the 'Museum of Dirty Human Behaviour' exhibit."

Where does this term come from... Long Yuehong discovered that Shang Jianyao has become more and more good at making up stories and making up nouns recently.

But frankly, it was closer to his concerns.

The "Old Tune Team" can't withstand the attacks of so many intelligent robots.

Jiang Baimian was about to appease Long Yuehong with a few words, when a mature male voice with a sense of synthesis suddenly sounded in his ears:

"There is no 'Museum of Human Dirty Deeds' in 'Mechanical Paradise', only 'Museum of Old World Civilizations'."

Swiping the floor, Shang Jianyao and the others all looked at the big screen in the conference room.

At some point in time, a huge vortex appeared on the screen.

"Hello." Shang Jianyao stood up immediately and greeted politely.

Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen saluted.

The mature male voice just now echoed in the room again:

"Don't be cautious, my core program has very strict restrictions on attacking humans, and many conditions must be met."

"You are 'Yuannao'?" Jiang Baimian nodded and asked.

"Yes." With the ups and downs of the whirlpool, a mature male voice replied, "Actually, I'm not the same as the main brain of the city you know, um, remember, you only have five minutes, think about it. what."

As a representative of the "Old Tune Group", Jiang Baimian went directly to the topic:

"Respected 'Original Brain', we want to know why the old world was destroyed."

"Origin Brain" was silent for two seconds and said:

"That's one of the things I'm trying to figure out."

This... Jiang Baimian frowned slightly and turned to ask:

"Then do you know what happened when the old world was destroyed?"

"Original Brain" replied without too much ups and downs:

"According to the information I collected and some of the images I monitored at the time, it can be preliminarily judged that the sudden outbreak of 'no heart disease' has brought about a series of changes.

"At that time, the technology reached an astonishing level, and technologies such as 'controllable nuclear fusion' that can change the fate of the entire planet have made key breakthroughs. Although they have not yet succeeded, they have already seen it. dawn.

"Similarly, automation and intelligence are also widely used in various key fields. When 'innocence' broke out in some military bases, people who lost their minds may encounter something by accident, or they may press something according to their instincts.

"The first wave of attacks happened like this. The intelligent systems of various countries responded in accordance with preset conditions and reactions without anyone presiding over them. Soon, because no one stopped it, it became an endless loop. The war has grown to the point of throwing various high-powered weapons at each other.

"The world was destroyed in a very short time."

Listening to the description of "Original Brain", the conference room was quiet, and no one spoke for a short time.

These simple words seem to cover the source of all human suffering in the past sixty or seventy years.

"Only five minutes..." Shang Jianyao suddenly reminded.

Jiang Baimian came back to his senses and hurriedly asked "Yuannao":

"So, do you think the root cause of the destruction of the old world was a sudden, massive outbreak of 'innocence'?"

"Yes, before that, there was no sign of destruction in the old world." "Original Brain" answered in the affirmative.

"Really?" Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully, "Could it be that you just didn't pay attention, or collected relevant information, for example, some time before the destruction of the old world, there were already forces quietly building shelters?"

At this moment, the rest of the "Old Tune Group" knew that Jiang Baimian was using "Pangu Creatures" as an example.

"Source Brain" quickly gave his answer:

"It may have been built by some apocalyptic enthusiasts themselves, or it may have been a site for other experiments, rather than a dedicated organized doomsday sanctuary."

Other experiments... Jiang Baimian chewed these words and turned back to the topic:

"Respected 'Original Brain', you should be aware that human beings established nine 'future-oriented' research institutes some time before the destruction of the old world. Do you think 'Wuxing' was one of them?"

"This possibility is not ruled out, but the intensity, breadth and randomness of the outbreak of 'Wuxing Disease' surpassed the technological level of human beings at that time." "Original Brain" responded with rather cautious words.

"Then do you know which research institute is in the north? North of the Black Marsh Wilderness." Jiang Baimian asked further.

"Origin Brain" was silent for a few seconds and said:

"I don't know, this was something I didn't have permission to touch at the time."

Having said this, the mature male voice with a slight sense of synthesis paused:

"Actually, the origin of 'Mechanical Paradise' is one of the nine research institutes, and I belong to the core and most important achievement of that research institute."

Jiang Baimian's mind flashed, and he blurted out:

"The Third Research Institute?"

The proprietress said that the Third Research Institute is in the south, and this place is already quite south, and the "mechanical paradise" is even more south!

"Yes." "Yuannao" was very calm, "The human beings at that time, for the sake of this research institute, forcibly created a magnificent new city."

A magnificent new city similar to the underground building of "Pangu Creatures"? Jiang Baimian just had such a thought, when Shang Jianyao "replaced" her and asked:

"Isn't it Maximian?"

Maximian, who "Mechanical Paradise" has been looking for, is suspected to be the chief scientist of the Third Research Institute!

The whirlpool on the big screen stopped spinning for two seconds and returned to normal:

"Strictly speaking, he is my father."

"Then did you find him later?" Shang Jianyao asked with concern.

"Origin Brain"'s unwavering voice has changed a little:

"It was found, but he was long dead.

"At that time, he had changed his name to Aure."

"Ao Lei..." Jiang Baimian repeated the name suspiciously, feeling very familiar.

The next second, Bai Chen blurted out:

"Aure of 'First City'?"

The coin with the largest denomination in the "First City" is called Aure, and it is named after one of the founders of the "First City"!

"Source Brain" answered this question in a straightforward tone:

"Yes, he is the first citizen, dictator, and short-lived emperor of the 'First City', Aure Ubis."
