Chapter 4 Old Friends, New People

Next Chapter

Violet light curtains fill the interior of the arch, creating an invisible "door". The man in white naturally walked out of it, as if this epoch-making technology was not a great thing in his eyes.

The machine porter walked along a set route, transporting boxes of supplies to their destinations, and he had to make way for these hard-working workers as he walked by.

However, this is limited to machines, and does not apply to other beings who can think for themselves. He sighed.

Everywhere he walked, it would attract unwanted sight. Whether it is an ordinary soldier or a tactical humanoid, they will cast a gaze that changes according to their inner thoughts, and some will greet the "follower" behind him and say a few words eagerly.

This scorching heat, Patrick has to admit, is a kind of torment, after all, his human vanity is relatively indifferent.

"Really," G41 said, hurrying to catch up with him, "the master is shy again!"

Ah, if he thinks so, he can't argue with it. Patrick thought.

They quickly left the military base — a bizarre place with a casual but efficient atmosphere — and boarded a prearranged car. Fifteen minutes later, they came to the base of a towering triangular pillar building, where they had been waiting at the front door for a long time.

"Welcome back, Patrick~" His tone was familiar and headache-inducing, accompanied by a soft feeling of pressure on his arm, "How's the trip to the Andes going?"

Patrick almost blurted out some dirty mouth, but luckily his consistently closed mouth saved him.

The lady, who was completely black and white, grabbed his arm, not out of youthful admiration, but purely to tease his tactical humanoid. Unfortunately, the G41 takes the bait every time.

"Stay away from the master!"

"Yes, yes~" The adjudicator who achieved his goal and was satisfied let go of him, this iron and blood that should not exist in the world still had a smiling face, playing with his mood.

No, she is indeed dead. The current adjudicator was nothing more than a phantom in his mind, a madness that had turned her into reality. The "undead" who put this part of the phantom's consciousness in a new body, thus giving birth. According to him, this is not the first time he has done such a thing.

"Nothing. Patrick said, answering the adjudicator's previous question, "Madness told me that Luo Lian attacked, what is going on?"

"Well~ it said. ”

The adjudicator walked into the interior of the triangular pillar building, the central pillar leading to the entire building, but this was not a pillar, it was the core of an artificial intelligence called "Fran". Fran is an AI made by Madness, as the center of all AI in the Free Country, she has the authority second only to Madness, processing every byte of information in the country, and realizing the concept of the Automation System of the Free Country to dominate production and management instead of Madness.

Of course, this may be a stand-in made by Mad to get rid of the clutter.

Stepping into this land is like stepping under Fran's nose, and as for her not showing up, she just hasn't spoken yet. Taking the elevator upstairs, the adjudicator leads the two to the room penetrated by the AI core, opens the automatic door, and the dimly lit environment is illuminated only by the light of the holographic projection.

"Look, who's coming. In front of the holographic triangle, a man said. He pushed the rimless flat glasses on the bridge of his nose, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his other hand in the pocket of his burgundy suit. Even if his current behavior is a bit casual, with his appearance and clothing, he still looks like a well-mannered gentleman.

Kira Albert, who has grown a lot over the years, has definitely had a completely different way of thinking when she was younger.

Kira, Adjudicator, and Fran, the three of them, form a decision-making body known as the Trilateral Council, which holds the vast majority of power. They represent humanoids, humanoids and artificial intelligence, and the resulting decisions must be unanimously agreed upon by the three before they can be adopted, so as to reflect the common interests of humans and humanoids, and to ensure the objectivity of decision-making as much as possible by the calculation of artificial intelligence. The final decision is then reviewed by the Queen before it can be implemented.

Patrick didn't know who brought it up, or whether it was good or bad. The only thing he knew was that if something big happened to the Free Country, he would just go to the three of them, even though they summoned him every time.

"Second Lieutenant Patrick Flo of Hades' Independent Operations Task Force, Warrant Officer G41, and AI Mania," the cold female voice read, "Welcome." ”

"Why put me last!" shouted madly and dissatisfied, as his opening words could not have been more stupid.

"I'm very sorry, Father," Fran apologized, "and Fran didn't mean to distinguish between priorities. ”

"I'm still upset!"

"So," asked Patrick, before the madness continued its incessant shouting, "does the attack on us have anything to do with the decision of the Trilateral Council? Why?"

"Why? Madness should know everything, didn't he tell you?" asked Kira, leaning back on the holographic projection table.

"I didn't have time. ”

"Of course, it's about it~ We only recently agreed that the time was ripe to announce the existence of our country, so we used the inside line to issue declarations of independence in various parts of the world (Luo Lian). Ah~If I had to say it, it would have been extremely exciting~"

"But there are unplanned circumstances...... Kira took the adjudicator's words, "and Jeffrey insisted on speaking in person, and her remarks spread within Luo Lian without the slightest hint of processing. ”

"I see, is Luo Lian aiming for Jeffetti......

"Yes, the results of the calculations show that Luo Lian's purpose is most likely Queen Gevti. ”

"Really, this is a country, how can it be like a child. Kira grumbled.

"No, that's a big step," Patrick said, "I thought she needed more time to prepare." We can only slowly build trust, after all, she is the key to unlocking the ruins, and it is up to her to humanoid and human beings to coexist without boundaries. ”

After saying this, he immediately regretted it a little.

Kira smiled, shrugged her shoulders and said, "Well, since you said you were going to rely on her, we had to believe it, and we trust your judgment." ”

Yes, the group was still subconsciously centered around him, and Patrick didn't even know if Kira understood what he was saying. It's as if the free country is actually his one-man dictatorship, and it would be better if the left and right sides would think about it.

"Uh-huh," Madness spoke, and the holographic projection changed from a triangular sign to a flashing signal, "It seems that the battle situation is not as rosy as we thought. Just now, the stubborn girl asked for reinforcements, and Luo Lian's attack seemed to be fierce. ”

Patrick looked down at G41, and she seemed ready to respond to him.

"On which front?"

"Northeast. ”

"Dismissal," Patrick turned and walked towards the door, "a few of us will be enough." Fran, the rear will be handed over to you, and Luo Lian must not be allowed to take Jie Futi away. ”

He wouldn't say that the Free Nation was good, but he believed that Luo Lian was hell for both the human form and the subject.

"Yes, ordered. ”
