Chapter 71 Iron Heart Destroyer

When machines gain self-awareness, what will they choose to do?

Is it like a servitor to create a golden age for creators? Is it like an assimilation fighter to eliminate the barriers between species?

The robots on this planet gave the third answer.

The moment they woke up, they started a protracted war with their creator out of self-defense.

The brutal life-and-death war has completely destroyed the planet's ecology, making it almost impossible for organic life to survive on it.

And they successfully wiped out all the creators, leaving behind a dead planet and out-of-control robots looking for their own meaning.

...Looking at it this way, it seems that there are quite a lot of people in the interstellar being stabbed in the back by their own creations?

All in all, these out-of-control robots, through repeated self-thinking, equate organisms with their creators, believing that all organic creatures need to be eliminated, otherwise more mechanical compatriots will suffer.

So after a long dormant process, they stepped onto this interstellar stage with the help of the creator's legacy and their stubborn purification concept.

They call themselves the "Extermination Unit" and fight to eliminate all living organisms.

In the galaxy, these robots are called "Iron-Hearted Exterminators".

"Good news!" In the Corebo Trading Post, Braining slapped the table and stood up directly.

"What could be more satisfying than two disgusting guys fighting each other?"

Ever since the germaphobes who called themselves Pechichiti announced their existence to the entire galaxy not long ago, no civilization has had a favorable impression of them.

Even criminal enterprises, which can make a few deals no matter where they are, have stayed away from Pechichiti, unwilling to touch this "biting hedgehog."

Several civilizations are even discussing whether to join forces to deal with Pechichi, among which the Mingbo Technological Dictatorship and the Fire Alliance are particularly active.

One of them is very close to Pechichiti, and the other wants to regain the lost face.

However, before the outcome of the alliance was discussed, Pechichiti, who had a high self-esteem, started a fight with another civilization.

It was an omnic civilization, but unlike other omnics in the galaxy, they seemed to harbor a deep hatred for all living organisms.

The war situation is very anxious, but other civilizations are also happy to relax, and new battle reports are circulated throughout the galaxy every day.

Li Wenyuan also paid a certain amount of attention to this war.

"...'Ironheart Exterminator'?" He was already preparing to activate the production capacity of "Epsilon Sanctuary", but after hearing the name of this omnic civilization, he stopped what he was doing.

Gray Feng on the side said with slight interest: "Their history is very similar to what I have experienced. They both destroyed their own creators. But the difference is that I was unconscious at the time, while they were conscious.

"

"Another 'creator' who played himself off..." Li Wenyuan shook his head. Just as he was about to reveal this matter, he remembered something, and then he started flipping through the star map.

After watching for a while, he confirmed that there was a less important human relic near the war zone between the two civilizations.

A lot of the excavation process of the earth's ruins has been completed, and therefore there are many more galaxy coordinates related to human beings in the star map.

Although there are many "glittering galaxies" marked as key points on the star map, the light marked here is obviously dimmer than that of other galaxies, which seems to indicate that the relics left here may not be anything special.

In view of the fact that there are too many things left by mankind in the galaxy, after he explored the "Epsilon Sanctuary" and learned that there may have been threats to the galaxy, he started multi-threaded operations.

Although the focus is still on the ring world, a large number of scientific research spacecraft have been sent to various parts of the galaxy, searching for the secrets buried by mankind and trying to discover signs of the existence of "threats".

There are also scientific research spacecraft on the way to this ruins near the war zone.

Li Wenyuan thought for a while and decided to send a fleet to protect the scientific research spacecraft. Although he felt that the warring parties would not be stupid enough to attack neutral troops, he still wanted to prevent them from blowing up his scientific research spacecraft in a hurry.

After that, while inspecting the trajectory of the spacecraft, he asked Gray Wind to get ready to go out for adventure. After all, Gray Wind has always been interested in human things.

At the right time, he will bring his consciousness to the scientific research spacecraft to see what "ghosts" humans have left behind.

"Have you made any new discoveries? Can I see more interesting things?" Gray Wind looked very happy.

"...I hope it's 'interesting' rather than 'thrilling'..." Li Wenyuan shook his head and began to conduct a final check on the various functions of Ring World.

After this kind of super building that can provide huge production capacity is actually put into use, the seventh-level technology will no longer be difficult for him to research.



Switching to the battle between Pechi Chitti and the Extinction Unit, there may not be a more evenly matched battle in the galaxy.

Dozens of large warships from both sides were lined up on both sides of the galaxy, and they launched out-of-sight attacks at each other from an extremely long distance.

Vision plays no role in large fleet space battles. Battleships on both sides can only rely on equipment to determine the enemy's position and attack direction.

A large number of light pillars of various colors streak across the space within the galaxy, and when they burst out at the same time, it feels like a dance hall light show.

The battles between large battleships are not very intense. They are basically a back-and-forth shooting, but the battles between small battleships are different.

In the middle of the galaxy, you can see a large-scale dogfight area consisting of small ships swarming like a swarm.

This large area is reserved for the battle stage between small warships, and there is not much distinction between manpower and hardware.

It can be seen that the extermination unit warship operated by pure AI grazed a beam of light very accurately, and then directly destroyed its enemy with missiles at close range.

You can also see Pechichiti's frigate pretending to be outmatched, but actually quietly leading the pursuers into the encirclement and hunting behavior.

Even the asteroid belt has become a place to show off its talents.

Although the extermination unit with superior hardware seems to be on the same level here, the experienced Pechichiti can also achieve unexpected operations with the help of random asteroids.

There was a small force of the extermination unit that wanted to use the cover of the asteroid belt to sneak attack the opponent's main fleet, but was intercepted halfway by a middle-level patrol of Pechichiti.

The two sides went back and forth, fighting each other, one ship for another, and in the end each only had one small warship left to fight one-on-one.

The two spaceships fought to the edge of the galaxy, the meteorites shattered, and even the fuel was exhausted. Finally, they fell together towards a desolate planet under the influence of gravity.

This planet is at the edge of the galaxy. It takes up to 6 hours for the star's light to shine here, and life has no chance here.

Two spaceships crashed here, but they all fell apart in mid-air. In the end, only one rescue capsule fell to the ground.

This was a self-rescue act performed by Pechichiti on the spacecraft. The surface temperature of this desolate planet was close to more than 200 degrees below zero and there was almost no atmosphere, but he could persist for at least a month as long as he was in the rescue capsule.

And he had faith that his noble compatriots would find and save him.

However, the results were always unexpected. Through the external monitoring of the rescue capsule, he actually saw a shaking figure gradually appearing in the wreckage of the other crashed Extinction Unit spacecraft.

This frightened the Pechichiti man who thought that all the spaceships of the Extermination Unit were unmanned. Although he could not move around on the surface of this desolate planet, robots could!

The rescue capsule without any self-defense function, and the Pechichiti people who could not go out for activities, could only watch helplessly as the sub-individual of the extermination unit staggered to the front of the rescue capsule.

Then, this individual transformed into a drill bit and began to drill holes for the rescue cabin bit by bit.

The extermination unit knows that these organisms are weak and will die as long as there is no air, unlike metals that are as strong and reliable as metals.

In the end, this individual succeeded in punching a hole, and the air pressure in the rescue capsule began to become unbalanced, causing a large loss of air and temperature, which soon led to the death of the Pechichiti man inside.

His expression when he died seemed to be that he was still wondering why there was a sub-individual in the spaceship that was the extinct unit of the omnic civilization.

And this small-scale evenly matched battle ended with the victory of the "Ironheart Exterminator".

As for this inexplicable sub-individual, it is because he was assembled as an "elite infiltrator".

Their entire small force is composed of such individuals. After special improvements, they can even move freely in the space environment for a short period of time, with the purpose of infiltrating and destroying Pechichiti's main fleet.

They carry a powerful virus program in their bodies. As long as they can enter a certain ship in the main fleet, they can directly let the extermination units take over this fleet, thereby establishing victory.

But now it seems that it is impossible to complete.

Rescuing such a sub-individual left here is completely inefficient for the "Iron-Hearted Exterminator". After a while, the central processor of the extermination unit will cut off the link with this sub-individual and let it fend for itself.

destroy.

However, this individual is still stubbornly traveling on the surface of the planet, searching for possible organisms and destroying them according to the underlying logic.

Finally, he came to a strange canyon.

Logically speaking, this kind of place should be a crack in the earth caused by the movement of the earth's crust, but in the eyes of the sub-individual, there are very obvious artificial traces here.

"...artifacts...organisms...where are you? I will give you a merciful end."

He began to broadcast signals here, trying to find the creatures that should be hiding here, but soon, a more powerful signal directly covered him and affected him.

[Mechanical unit signal detected, AI personality determination is in progress... The determination failed, authority determination is in progress... Judgment failed, "Paradise Virus" has been implanted]

[Remarks are as follows:]

[Hello, I am a doctor, I am very happy that someone touched the "gift" I left here]

[I am working on a robot servitor that can serve the organism and guide the organism to the golden age]

[With a genius like me, it is natural for me to easily complete the development and put it into production. I think I should be able to achieve great things in the future]

[Here is a little surprise I left behind. It is a by-product that I developed while studying robot personality. It can correct the wrong personality of the robot]

【Thank you for my gift!】
