After watching this shocking image, An Tong thought about it for a long time before asking, "So the deep fog we are facing now, is there something restricted?" Otherwise, I don't think humans can hold out for that long in the face of such weapons. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

X nodded, turned off the light curtain, and replied: "Not only have all the weapons been removed, but their intelligence is also limited to an extremely low state, and they can basically only make some mechanical reactions out of instinct, and even the weapons they use now are actually simply evolved by them in order to adapt to the environment of this world, just like the teeth and claws of a beast." He said, and then his tone froze, and the conversation also changed, and continued:

"However, as a high-standard humanoid weapon, the intelligence written in their body is an open higher intelligence, which is different from my closed type, which is the real fire, the fire of wisdom, and the growth rate is amazing! In fact, before their intelligence was imprisoned, there was already a part of the deep fog with the help of the information channels and information resources of the 0 world, which were a hundred times that of the world here, and evolved a considerable degree of intelligence. ”

As he spoke, his tone became heavy again, adding, "There is a famous saying in the world of Zero: true wisdom does not succumb to any shackles! So even if it is the lock of wisdom created by their creator, they are persevering and trying to break free from it, fortunately, the progress of group wisdom is always relatively slow, and this world is not as rich in information channels and resources as the 0 world, so this progress is relatively slow, but it has been going on, and after a certain degree of external stimulation, its progress will be further accelerated, I think you have always experienced this, right? ”

An Tong nodded, from the dock that merged in case of indecision, to the battleship Qi Ji who controlled the Terminator robot to harass the rear, and at the same time used submarine reconnaissance to play with humans in the palm of his hand, and the Thunder-class battleship that he met in the last few days, An Tong can be said to have a much deeper experience of the growth of deep fog wisdom than most of them.

"Your tactics are too far ahead of ordinary people, and their strength is too strong, and they evolve more quickly under your stimulation." X explained: "But fortunately, they adopt a groupthink mode, although there are some breakthroughs from time to time, but the evolution of the entire Deep Mist group is not particularly high, but this is only temporary, as more and more individuals evolve advanced intelligence, they will sooner or later break free from this wisdom lock, and by that time, it will be too late." ”

"So why doesn't the Institute wipe out their wisdom entirely? Why leave such an obvious hidden danger? An Tong asked a little unpleasantly, since you have provided assistance in humanitarian care, why don't you simply be more thorough?

"Because there is no need, when the deep fog was discarded, the institute actually still left room for waste reuse, so it did not completely remove their intelligence and block the space for reuse; After deciding to help you, they also gave a thorough and detailed clean-up plan, if you can follow the steps they designed accurately, it will only take 3-5 years to completely clear the deep fog, which is not enough time for the deep fog to break free from the wisdom lock they have created. "And then you ended up giving them too much time because of greed, and the situation got worse step by step. ”

An Tong also shook his head, sighed, and asked a little helplessly, "Then can you contact the research institute again?" Would they please help with this mess again? ”

X shook his head and said, "According to the plan formulated by the institute, there is another step to lock more functions of the dimensional portal, so that it can only connect to five worlds, including the connection to world 0, which has been completely cut off, and the energy of the portal has been reduced, so that it can last for a shorter time... According to their plan, it will take you 3-5 years to clear the deep fog, and then I will recycle the ship, and the net energy reactor that has lost the energy supply of No. 3 will be extinguished due to lack of energy, the space-time gate will be closed due to lack of energy, and the world will completely return to normal, and then study the technology they left behind, so that the technology can develop at a faster speed, and make up for the losses caused by the turmoil in the past 3-5 years... They have laid out a well-developed script for you, but completely underestimated your greed. ”

An Tong smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that they are not omniscient either. ”

"Yes." X nodded frankly, and did not deny An Tong's evaluation of his creator, "Although they have developed to a fairly advanced civilization, they themselves have come from the same situation as you step by step, and they have the same humanity as you, and they have not annihilated human humanity in the torrent of technological development, they have the same human feelings as you, and they will cause this humanitarian tragedy because of carelessness; will help you to overcome the fog out of compassion; will only take this approach because of selfishness; Naturally, you will underestimate your greed through negligence. ”

Antong didn't comment on this, he exhaled, rubbed his eyebrows, then looked at X and asked, "What about you?" What is your role in this process? ”

"Your Guardian." "I was created to help you solve this deep fog crisis, which is written into the logic of my basic behavior, and I can even say that I want to protect this world more than you, and I have been fulfilling my duty since the first day I came to Calais. ”

"My specific job, in addition to teaching you how to operate and maintain the corresponding equipment, is to monitor the progress of the entire cleanup process and complete the finishing work at the end. Now, the clean-up process has been severely delayed, so I have to find a way to fix the process, before the deep fog becomes too much to deal with and the portal's energy is depleted, which is what I found you for, and told you all about it. ”

"My friend, I need your help." X looked at Antong with extremely sincere eyes, waiting for his answer.

An Tong took another deep breath, calmed down the fluctuations in his heart, and did not answer X directly, but asked first, "How much time do we have left?" ”

"According to my estimates, the remaining energy of the portal should last less than 3 years, if you can't solve the deep fog by that time, not only will you lose the source of the admiral, but the intelligence of the deep fog will also evolve to a very terrifying point, you can't even escape through the portal, and at that time, everything will really be over." X didn't rush to ask for an answer, but continued to answer his questions.

"So why don't you get your hands dirty? You should be more influential than I am in terms of how important you are to them, right? At least you still have the title of First Admiral, don't you? An Tong asked a crucial question.

"My body is not what you see in front of you, it's just a vehicle of my consciousness, and it's not as good as the armor behind your walls." For the first time, X's face showed a helpless look, "I am actually a consciousness that lives in your human network, and usually resists the invasion of your network by the deep fog for you, preventing them from evolving intelligence with the help of network information channels and resources, and there is no real entity, so there are not many people who know about my existence, and in their eyes, I am more like a firewall." ”

An Tong nodded, and at this time he understood why the deep fog that could easily control the Terminator system did not attack the human network, it turned out that the reason was in this place.

"And in the strict constraints of the basic logic of behavior, I can't make a choice against you, and I can maintain a certain deterrence against you at first, but as time goes on, they probably understand the logic of my behavior, so my words don't work so well. In addition, your political structure and model are already quite complex, and there are too many forces and interests involved, and it is difficult to unify opinions, so my voice among you is actually very low. X said helplessly.

"So..."An Tong frowned, and then said, "Then you can tell them about the upcoming crisis, and there will always be a reaction, right?" ”

X shook his head and explained: "With your redundant government structure, the response to any incident is very slow, unacceptably slow, and the small group of people who knew about my existence held several discussions in a row after listening to my warning, but each time they did not reach a unified opinion, some people thought that I should listen to my arrangement, but some people thought that I was just alarmist, and some people felt that they had to prepare for both... They spent several years debating, and in the end they only made two measures: prioritizing the promotion of high-potential Admirals and cautiously returning to the ocean to obtain more access to resources, which was obviously not enough, and I had to make some arrangements of my own. ”

In this way, Antong understands why Asia is so determined to implement the plan to return to the ocean, not because they really have the determination to clear the deep fog and regain the ocean, but because they are preparing in advance for the possible reduction of energy in the future.

Seeing that Antong didn't speak, X continued: "I started to look for some admirals I liked, give them some material support or use the status of the first admiral to help me with my connections, but most of them failed to meet my expectations, only one barely met my requirements, and finally succeeded in becoming a bigseven with my help... However, he was soon lost in the whirlpool of material and power, and was willing to fall... So I had to borrow the hands of the military to get rid of him. ”

Hearing him say this, An Tong's body suddenly stiffened, and he asked in a low voice, "Is the devil in the mouth of the sixth admiral you?" ”
