Chapter 53 Gray Wind
The mobile energy source on this last planet looks wrong no matter what, Li Wenyuan also raised his vigilance.
"...Is there a living guy? Is it the 'ash' in the incomplete records?"
Of course he has read the information in the last record. Combining the previous few words, he also roughly restored the ending of this group of nano-robots.
At the beginning, the "Gate Builders" didn't know what they did to cause these nano-robots to go out of control. After a long remedy, they decided to block themselves and the out-of-control nano-robots in this "distant star cluster", and then fight to the death.
As far as the result is concerned, the "Gate Builders" failed, and the entire civilization dissipated with the wind, leaving only these out-of-control nanobots and locked star gates left in the galaxy.
But these out-of-control nano-robots gradually gave birth to intelligence during the long closed time.
It may be out of boredom, or out of curiosity.
These nano-robots disguised themselves as the civilization of their creators, and established a fake "Desanu Concord", waiting for someone to open the star gate leading here from the outside.
One day, the door was indeed opened, and the bored nanobots greeted it enthusiastically, wanting to see what the galaxy outside looked like.
It's a pity that the people who opened the door were not very "friendly", or maybe it was because their poor imitation was seen.
All in all, these nano-robots were asked about their pain points, and angrily launched an attack.
Then got beaten up and nearly turned into the dust of history along with their creators.
Li Wenyuan speculates that the civilization that taught these nano-robots a lesson is probably human beings. After all, all kinds of clues pointed out that the "gate builder" met human beings when building the star gate, and had a certain degree of contact.
In the era when there were not even a few natives who went to heaven, he felt that only humans could have such fighting power.
However, humans at that time did not choose to destroy these nano-robots, but blocked the door again, as if they wanted these nano-robots to be calm and calm.
Then this level is that I don’t know how many years, even human beings have disappeared, as if they have forgotten about the "distant star cluster".
And these nano-robots may have found a suitable path in the continuous self-reflection and self-evolution.
In the beginning, they may have been trying to create organic life. The incomplete records mentioned that they had created a "behemoth", but Li Wenyuan didn't know exactly what it was.
With continuous trial and error and deduction, these nano-robots finally merged all their thinking into one consciousness, and got their results.
—The aggregate of nanorobots named "Ash" is wandering on the surface of the planet.
Li Wenyuan's scientific research spacecraft has approached the planet full of nano-robots, and soon uploaded the pictures taken by the drone to the spacecraft.
The content of the screen also surprised Li Wenyuan slightly:
A "human woman" is walking in a near-vacuum planetary environment without any protective equipment or life-support equipment.
Even if I was directly exposed to cosmic radiation, I didn't show any discomfort, and I still lived very comfortably.
Li Wenyuan knew that "Hui" was a super life, but he didn't care much about her being able to move in the universe environment. What surprised him was that "Hui" had a human appearance!
Obviously the civilization that beat those nanobots in the records is humans, otherwise there is no reason why a guy who was locked up in the "distant star cluster" for at least a million years would adopt the appearance of humans.
The nanorobot aggregate sensed the approach of the drone, but she didn't show surprise, but looked bored instead.
"Hello, dear compatriots. How are you doing? Me... I don't have any interest in playing right now. I have something to say. Let's talk about it after my sleep cycle is over."
After the signal she sent was translated to mean this, Li Wenyuan was at a loss... What was it all about?
Before he could take any further action, the nanorobot aggregate realized something, and then looked at the drone in the sky in surprise.
"Ah! Did I make a mistake? Wait a minute...Let me think about it...Ah, yes. Huh."
"Sorry, I thought it was a toy that I split off, only to realize that I haven't played like this for a long time."
"Yes, yes, obviously, I am not a 'human' at all, nor a creature, nor even one of you. Tell me, what do you want?"
However, Li Wenyuan still noticed that she seemed to know "human beings", and she behaved as a person who could communicate.
So after thinking about it for a while, Li Wenyuan decided to ask step by step: "Please reveal your identity first."
"Identity? Well, I thought you should be able to judge what you see around you. Where should you say it?"
"It's so troublesome. All in all, we are a group of nano-robots called 'Grey Gu Storm' by our creators. We destroyed our creators, and then conducted a series of experiments over a long period of time."
"I am the result of our experiment. Now the entire 'Grey Gu Storm', or whatever you call it, has gathered on me. My consciousness represents our entire civilization."
"As for my appearance... it's because a civilization that called itself 'humanity' once came here and left some... very enlightening things."
"I like one of the games called "stellaxxx", so I designed my appearance as an existence similar to me inside."
"Ah, ah, ah, why do you talk about so many irrelevant things? Is it because I haven't talked to anyone other than myself for a long time? I believe you won't mind me talking to myself like this, right?"
She said a lot, although it seemed irrelevant to her, it was very important to Li Wenyuan.
"Sure enough, it's a human being. It's really rare. I can see a person who has personally witnessed the existence of human beings."
He thought to himself, just as he was about to continue asking, he saw this nanorobot aggregate looking around, seeming a little anxious.
"…What are you looking at?"
"Since you have entered this place, does it mean that this place is no longer closed? I have to admit that I have become bored with the pastoral life here recently."
"Now that the star gate to the outside world is open again, maybe I should get in touch with some new things. Do you have any suggestions?"
Want to get out?
Li Wenyuan was taken aback for a moment, and then he was unwilling to let her go. Not to mention whether these nano-robots are still threatening, the fact that she may know many things from ancient times is enough to attract Li Wenyuan's attention.
As for how to get her to stay...
Seeing that she has not shown any danger until now, and is curious about everything in the outside world, Li Wenyuan's eyes flickered, and he said directly:
"You can join us, I think I can give you a better understanding of the outside world."
"Um, join...wait? Join you? Join you? You want me to throw myself into the arms of some alien civilization I'm meeting for the first time? I really...I'm just...wait, let me get this straight!"
"You really think I will swear allegiance to you? Even though I know nothing about your weird empire and the history behind it? Are you kidding me?"
"You would make such a suggestion, I really don't know what you're thinking...uh...actually...on second thought, well, what's wrong?"
"Let me join you, seriously! I have a feeling we're going to hit it off! And it's going to be an exciting interstellar adventure! I'll be loyal to you for the next 2,000 years. No, 5,000 years! "
Really deceived her... Ah no, I have persuaded her...
Li Wenyuan did not expect that the nanorobot aggregate would agree so easily, so that all the rhetoric he had thought up in advance was useless.
Sure enough, her current mental state is not normal, is it because she has been imprisoned in the "distant star cluster" for too long?
However, for the time being, he still retains his vigilance against this nanorobot aggregate, after all, her predecessor was the existence that once destroyed her own creator.
Even if it seems to have changed now, it needs attention.
After temporarily breathing a sigh of relief, Li Wenyuan also asked her title:
"What should I call you? Just 'Ash'?"
"Name? This kind of thing doesn't matter anymore, let's hurry up and have a thrilling alien adventure!"
"...Since your creator called you 'Grey Gu Storm', let's call you 'Grey Wind'."
"Grey Wind? Not bad, let's get started!"
