Chapter 71 Iron Heart Destroyer
When machines are born with self-awareness, what will they choose to do?
To usher in a golden age for creators like a servitor? Is it like an assimilation fighter who vows to eliminate the barriers between species?
The robots on this planet gave a third answer.
The moment they awakened to consciousness, they waged a protracted war with their Creator in self-defense.
The brutal war of life and death completely destroyed the ecology of the planet, and organic creatures could hardly survive on it.
And they also successfully wiped out 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 backstabs in the interstellar world?
All in all, these out-of-control robots, under repeated self-thinking, equate the organisms with their creators, and think that all organic creatures need to be cleared, otherwise more mechanical compatriots will suffer.
So after a long dormant process, they stepped onto the interstellar stage with the help of the legacy of the creator and with their stubborn purification concept.
Calling themselves the "Extermination Unit", they fight to wipe out all living organisms.
In the galaxy, this group of robots is called "Iron Heart Destroyers".
"Good news!" In the Cribb Trading Station, Breining slapped the table and stood up immediately.
"What's more satisfying than when two guys who are both disgusting get to fight each other?"
Since the racial cleanser who called himself Pechkitti announced their existence to the whole galaxy not long ago, no civilization has favored them.
Even criminal enterprises that can make a few deals no matter where they are are far away from Pechkitti, unwilling to touch this kind of "hedgehog that can bite people".
Several civilizations are even discussing whether to join forces to bring Peqiqi to the disposal. Among them, the Mingbo Technological Dictatorship and the Fire Alliance are particularly active.
One of their borders is very close to Pechkitti, and the other wants to regain the face that was completely lost.
However, the result of the alliance has not yet been negotiated, and Pechkit, who thinks highly of himself, fought with another civilization.
It was an omnic civilization, but unlike any other omnic in the galaxy, they seemed to have a deep hatred for all organics.
The battle situation is very anxious, but other civilizations are also happy to relax, and new battle reports are circulated all over the galaxy every day.
And Li Wenyuan also paid a certain amount of attention to this war.
"...'Iron Heart Destroyer'?" He was already preparing to activate the production capacity of "Epsilon Shelter", but after hearing the name of this omnic civilization, he still stopped his work.
Gray Wind on the side said with a little interest: "Their history is very similar to my previous experience, they all destroyed their own creators. But the difference is that I was unconscious at that time, while they were conscious. "
"Another 'creator' who played himself off..." Li Wenyuan shook his head, just about to expose this matter, when he remembered something, and then flipped through the star map.
After watching for a while, he confirmed that there is a less important human relic near the battle zone between these two civilizations.
The excavation process of the remains of the earth has been completed a lot, so there are many more galaxy coordinates related to human beings in the star map.
Although there are many "flash galaxies" marked as key points on the star map, the marked light here is obviously dimmer than that of other galaxies, which seems to indicate that there may be nothing special about the relics left here.
In view of the fact that there are too many things left by human beings in the galaxy, he started multi-threading after he inspected the "Epsilon Shelter" and knew that the galaxy might have been threatened.
Although the center of gravity is still on the ring world, a large number of scientific research spacecraft have already marched to all parts of the galaxy, looking for the secrets buried by human beings, and trying to discover signs of the existence of "threats".
And this ruins near the battle zone, there are also scientific research spacecraft rushing to it.
Li Wenyuan thought for a while, and decided to send a fleet to act as the guard of the scientific research spacecraft. Although he felt that the warring parties would not be foolish 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 track of the spaceship, he prepared Gray Wind to go out to explore, after all, Gray Wind has always been interested in human things.
He will send his consciousness to the scientific research spacecraft at the right time to see what "ghost things" humans have left behind.
"Any new discoveries? Can I see more interesting things?" Gray Wind was very happy.
"... I hope it's 'interesting', not 'horrifying'..." Li Wenyuan shook his head, and began to check the various functions of the ring world for the last time.
After this kind of super building that can provide huge production capacity is actually activated, the seventh-level technology will no longer be difficult for him to research.
…
Turn the scene to the battle between Pecchiti and the extermination unit. Perhaps there is no more evenly matched battle in the galaxy than this.
Dozens of large warships from both sides lined up on both sides of the galaxy, launching non-visual strikes at each other from a super long distance.
A large number of beams of light of various colors streak across the space in the galaxy, and when they burst out at the same time, it feels like a light show in a dance hall.
The battles between large warships are not very intense, basically you come and shoot at each other, but the battles between small warships are different.
In the middle of the galaxy, a large area of dogfighting can be seen consisting of small ships entwined like a swarm of bees.
This large area is reserved for the battle stage between small warships, and there is not much difference between manpower and hardware here.
You can see that the pure AI-operated extermination unit warships passed a beam of light very accurately, and then directly destroyed their enemies with missiles at close range.
It can also be seen that Pechkitti's frigate pretended to be invincible, but actually quietly led the pursuers into the hunting behavior of the encirclement.
Even the asteroid belt has become a place to show its talents.
Although the extermination units with superior hardware seem to be walking on the ground here, the experienced Pechkit can also achieve unexpected operations with the help of scurrying asteroids.
A small force of the extermination unit wanted to use the cover of the asteroid belt to sneak attack the opponent's main fleet, but was intercepted by a mid-level patrol team from Pechkitti halfway.
Both sides come and go, fighting each other, one ship for another, and finally only one small warship left for one-on-one.
The two spaceships battled to the edge of the galaxy, the meteorite collapsed, and even the fuel was exhausted, and finally they fell together to a barren planet under the action of gravity.
This planet is at the edge of the galaxy, and it takes up to 6 hours for the light of the stars to reach here, and life has no chance here.
Two spaceships crashed here, but they fell apart in mid-air at the same time, and only one rescue capsule finally fell to the ground.
This is the self-rescue behavior of Pechchiti on the spacecraft. The surface temperature of this barren planet is close to minus 200 degrees, and there is almost no atmosphere, but he can persist for at least a month as long as he is in the rescue capsule.
And he firmly believes that his noble countrymen will find and save him.
However, the result is always unexpected. Through the external monitoring of the rescue cabin, he unexpectedly saw a swaying figure gradually appearing in the wreckage of the other crashed extermination unit spaceship.
This greatly frightened the Pechchiti who thought that all the spaceships of the Extinction Unit were unmanned. Although he could not move on the surface of this barren planet, robots could!
The rescue capsule without any self-defense function, and the Pechkit people who were unable to go out for activities could only watch helplessly as the child of the extinct unit staggered to the front of the rescue capsule.
Then, this sub-individual transformed into a drill bit, and began to drill holes into the rescue capsule little by little.
Extermination units know the fragility of these organisms, they will die as long as there is no air, not as strong and reliable as metal.
Finally, the sub-individual successfully punched a hole, the air pressure in the rescue cabin began to become unbalanced, and the air and temperature began to lose a lot, which quickly led to the death of the Pechkiti inside.
The expression when he died seemed to be 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 in the victory of the "Iron Heart Exterminator".
As for this sub-individual that appeared inexplicably, it was because he was assembled as an "elite infiltrator".
Their entire small force is all 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 Pechkit's main fleet.
They have a powerful virus program in their bodies. As long as they can enter one of the main fleets, they can directly let the extermination units take over these fleets, thus securing the victory.
But now it seems impossible to complete.
Rescuing such a sub-individual left here is completely inefficient for the "Iron Heart Exterminator". off.
However, this sub-individual is still stubbornly marching on the surface of the planet, searching for possible organisms according to the underlying logic, and destroying them.
Finally, he came to a strange canyon.
Logically speaking, this kind of place should be a ground fissure produced 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 stronger signal directly covered and affected him.
【Mechanical unit signal detected, AI personality judgment in progress...judgment failed, authority judgment in progress...judgment failed, "Paradise Virus" has been implanted】
【Remarks are as follows:】
【Hello, I’m a doctor, I’m glad someone touched the "gift" I left here】
【I am researching a robot servant that can serve organisms and lead them to a golden age】
【Genius like me naturally developed it easily 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 I developed when I was researching robot personality, it can correct the robot’s wrong personality】
【Thank you for my gift! 】
