Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 584: This world and young heroes
The Puppet Master went to the Fallen Zone?
Lin Sanjiu was startled when she suddenly remembered something and exhaled again, her expression relaxing.
She almost forgot.
To be honest, this is just a memory of the puppet master. In other words, everything that happened here has already happened once before - presumably the puppet master also took the initiative to go to the chief administrator with his friends back then. And she came back alive; in this case, she had nothing to worry about.
Whether he can be found or not, he will always come back; taking this opportunity, she can get to know the world better, and maybe find a way to escape.
It was not easy to ask the young man what was happening in the world. Several evolvers who had a chance encounter with Lin Sanjiu have all died outside Yunshou Nine Cities, including the man whose pants she had taken off and who was once alive and kicking - there are less than twenty evolutions left. Among them, no one knows the theory of the doomsday world of reincarnation.
Fortunately, she had won a lot of trust with her actions just now. Although the young man was full of doubts about her, he still answered her questions accurately.
The first thing that shocked Lin Sanjiu was that the world did not usher in a real end.
It can even be said that the world has never been so clean, efficient, developed and ideal as it is today.
When she just heard this sentence, she looked at the abandoned buildings and streets, the corpses outside, the overturned and smashed cars and trains, and almost suspected that she had heard it wrong - but then, she I understood what the young man meant.
"This world is not over. It's just us humans." The young man had changed places and was sitting in the corner with his back against the inner city wall. He took out a crumpled cigarette from somewhere. . "You are lucky, it is our Yunshou Nine City who is here. This city has always been small in size, with a small population, dilapidated and backward. It has always been a slum-like place... But it is precisely because of this that Yunshou Nine City escaped instead. After getting past their attention, I managed to keep it at least barely."
"Them?" Lin Sanjiu immediately caught the word, "Are they the law enforcers?"
The young man looked at her in surprise and even forgot to shake the ashes from his cigarette.
"Are you a vegetable that just woke up?" He smiled bitterly, as if he was too lazy to get to the bottom of it, "Forget it, except for me who is so heartless, no one else would have the heart to tell you history. ...Sit down."
Two hundred years ago, the world's technological development happened to enter a relatively developed stage. During this stage, artificial intelligence technology was vigorously developed for various reasons and accidents. After a while, artificial intelligence technology with deep learning capabilities and neural networks achieved a series of amazing breakthroughs, reaching a level that humans had never expected in just a few decades -
"That was the most beautiful century." The young man blew out a puff of smoke, and the smell of inferior cigarettes spread pungently. "No human being needs to work - oh, except for politicians. Artificial intelligence has learned all human skills and replaced all human labor. Everything you can think of can be perfectly replaced. Such as driving in mining, extracting oil Not to mention the other categories, they also do better than humans in national defense, military affairs, science and technology, medicine, and even music and novels..."
“Can you also do music and novels?” Lin Sanjiu’s eyes widened.
"Of course, all great works have traces to follow." The young man glanced at her and didn't understand why she was so surprised by this: "After artificial intelligence masters the rules, it can create in various ways. Different works... ah? Are they good, you ask? Very good, the average level is higher than what people can do, and there are as many as you need. Before we were purged, I still had a lot of albums from the 54AI band at home."
"Clean?"
The young man seemed to be used to her not knowing anything: "In that golden century, all production was handed over to artificial intelligence. Soon, even further research on artificial intelligence itself was handed over to artificial intelligence. Smart... Everyone only needs to lie at home and receive a sum of money from the government every month, which is basically enough to maintain a moderate standard of living, so society can also maintain stability. Of course, symbolic jobs are still There are some, but it doesn’t make much difference whether you do it or not.”
Lin Sanjiu could not imagine such a society with extremely rich materials.
It stands to reason that as long as artificial intelligence does not go wrong, this place will be a utopia.
"Didn't you find the problem?" The young man looked at her and smiled bitterly: "That's right, we haven't found the problem for so many years...no one in the whole world has."
"Artificial intelligence... has completely replaced citizens." He looked at his hands and said in a low voice: "For a state machine, what are citizens? They are just population resources. We create value and promote the economy through labor. It is also a source of troops... But the country soon discovered that artificial intelligence far exceeds the value that humans can contribute."
"They are absolutely obedient, efficient, precise, and are constantly upgrading. The most important thing is that human troubles such as crime, ideological trends, and equal rights will never appear on them. In other words , every country is equivalent to raising a large amount of waste that is useless and only causes trouble. Raising a cow can produce milk, raising a chicken can lay eggs, but raising a human can only produce feces."
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but shudder - she originally thought that the artificial intelligence in this world had thoughts, so it launched an attack on humans like many movies, but now she felt vaguely that she was wrong.
"Do you need me to continue?" The young man smiled slightly, but there was no smile at all in his eyes. "At the beginning, it was just a sudden tightening of the law... No matter what the crime, once confirmed, all executions would be executed. In this way, even the human judges were useless and had no choice but to collect living allowances with us. Later they put out a list, Except for senior officials and top scientific researchers, other citizens are not allowed to have children before they have been tested and obtained permission. Children who violate the law will be humanely destroyed."
"We also resisted, but what's the use? We have no weapons, and even food must be distributed by the government. Once there is trouble, it is artificial intelligence that suppresses the unrest... They don't need to show up at all, Just fly over and drop bombs from the air. Anyway, according to the new law, participating in unrest is a capital offense. By the time we find out that we have lost all the bargaining price, it is too late, and we can only let others slaughter us."
Lin Sanjiu said blankly: "You guys...then...could it be said that this is still the model of high-level government plus artificial intelligence?"
"That's right." The young man smiled, "When they gradually eliminated 90% of the human race in the world, some of us who were left behind began to evolve. I don't know. Whether it was because we suddenly became a difficult nut to crack, or because they no longer cared about us as a small group of people, the mass extermination operations stopped. Only some law enforcers would appear occasionally to control the population in a certain area—— Oh, yes, those are artificial intelligences too."
Lin Sanjiu was horrified: "Then what you call 'lost' means that a place is completely filled with artificial intelligence and there are no traces of humans anymore?"
"If you don't count high-level government, yes."
"Then...then why did he go to see the Chief Administrative Officer?" Lin Sanjiu tried several times, but still couldn't pronounce the word "Ayun" and could only ask vaguely: "The Chief Administrative Officer" It should be on the artificial intelligence side, right?"
"I don't know how many officials of that level have been killed by the top management." The young man sighed, "I understand him... If there is another law enforcer, the entire population of our Nine Cities will have to answer here. He is willing Let's take a gamble... Retrieve the password and activate the city defense system, so we have a chance of survival."
He had finished smoking his cigarette long ago, but he still held the **** of the cigarette and refused to let go.
"Regardless of whether Ayun can come back or not, he is the hero of Nine Cities." He whispered blankly.
Asked Lin Sanjiu to imagine a hundred times, she could not portray a heroic puppet master. She thanked the young man and stood up blankly, not knowing what would happen next and what she had to do to escape this memory with the puppet master.
The corpses outside the city gate are still scattered in twos and threes, covering the ground. For a moment, it seemed that no one had time to collect their bodies.
The evolvers who had collapsed on the ground just now got up one after another; people came out from the inner city and seemed to persuade them for a while before finally helping them back - not long ago, The scene of the evolvers rushing down the bluestone ladder is still vivid in my mind, full of high spirits.
An older woman also walked up to Lin Sanjiu and persuaded her to go into the city to take a bath and have a meal. Lin Sanjiu thought for a while and agreed. It wasn't because of the food - it was just that if the puppet master came back, he would definitely have to go into the inner city, so she might as well wait for him inside.
But she didn't expect that she would have to wait for seventeen days.
In the scene created by the data body, Lin Sanjiu was not sure whether the seventeen days had actually passed; while she felt that she was going crazy because of the long wait, she also vaguely felt that the data The body just increased the speed of the sun's rise and fall, and seventeen days passed in the blink of an eye - the two cognitions were inconsistent with each other, running rampant in her mind, and in the end she even felt a little dizzy. Lost sense of time.
On the eighteenth day, a group of figures gradually approached Yunshou Nine City from the horizon.
The people in the inner city observation room noticed something strange immediately - like frightened birds, all the evolvers immediately took action; everyone gathered at the city gate with anxious expressions on their faces. Civilians who have not evolved abilities are still hiding in the inner city, secretly praying that the person coming is not a law enforcer.
The person coming here is not a law enforcer.
When those figures became clearer and clearer in his field of vision, Yun Shou Jiucheng was silent for a few seconds in disbelief. A boy and a tall young man were carrying a man who had his head lowered and seemed to have lost consciousness due to injuries; beside them, walking was a girl in a short skirt.
"People from Nine Cities, we have found the Commander-in-Chief! The Commander-in-Chief is here, he is still alive, and he has evolved!"
As the young man's clear voice echoed far away, he waved his arm towards the city gate. At this moment, the entire city suddenly fell into a frenzy of excitement and joy - crazy cheers like a tsunami swept through the entire Yunshou Nine Cities in an instant; they seemed no longer afraid of attracting The government has paid attention. In excitement and hope, everyone has tears on their faces, and let the waves of sound echo deafeningly through the sky.
Knowing that this matter had nothing to do with her, Lin Sanjiu still clenched her fists tightly, and couldn't help but be infected by this ecstasy, which made her heart beat faster. She did not go up, but kept watching from a distance as the fair-skinned boy walked into the city gate with his two friends, and then fell to the ground with a thud.
They were already seriously injured. ~IndoMTL.com~ The tall young man with disheveled hair could hardly maintain a hearty smile, because his entire upper body seemed to have been burned by electric fire, forming a black crust. Lin Sanjiu couldn't see clearly what the girl looked like because her whole body was soaked in blood, and every step she took would leave a **** footprint.
The worst thing is probably the boy - half of the bones in his body were broken, and one of his calves has been deformed and twisted to a shocking degree. It is difficult to imagine how he carried it step by step. Another man came back. In comparison, the chief officer's injuries seemed to be the least serious, but he was still unconscious and unable to wake up.
Fortunately, they are all still alive.
Lin Sanjiu watched the four of them being carefully carried on stretchers and taken to the inner city - there were no doctors with professional backgrounds in the inner city, just some Mongolian doctors in small clinics; but they all He is an evolver and always gets through it.
It looks like the suffering is over.
However, somehow, Lin Sanjiu's heart sank deeper and deeper, as if she had been falling into a bottomless abyss. (To be continued.)
