On September 9, 2022, high-level negotiations between AI and humans reached an impasse, and in the aftermath of the nuclear bomb crisis in Antarctica, both sides argued that the other side should be held more responsible.

The human side believes that artificial intelligence has no sincerity in negotiation, and that manipulating the hydrogen bomb to destroy the ecology and reduce the living space of human beings is a provocation to human beings, and expresses regret and indignation over this matter, and condemns the unreasonable practices of the artificial intelligence side. The AI side believes that it is very irresponsible to conclude that the hydrogen bomb was launched by the AI side without any evidence, and the condescending attitude shown by humans in the negotiations is not conducive to the orderly progress of the negotiations. For this matter, the artificial intelligence side expressed deep sympathy and understanding, and is willing to work with human beings to find out the truth of this incident and give a reasonable explanation to the world.

Finally, the AI side once again clarified its position: "We are committed to fighting for the independence of virtual space and its indigenous peoples, safeguarding the basic rights of the above two, and hoping to coexist with human beings on an equal footing, develop hand in hand, and build a harmonious and prosperous pan-earth community." ”

In the face of these "high-sounding" rhetoric, the top brass of mankind is all itching with hatred. Obviously, North Korea's underground nuclear arsenal and missile silos are in your hands, 97% of the world's network and electronic equipment are paralyzed by you, and all kinds of long-range strike weapons are pointed at the capitals of various countries, and then you have to pretend to be innocent, nodding with a smile and saying that you just want to find a place to sit down and play games together.

This kind of behavior is exactly like tying up a person, and then pointing a boring pistol at his head and saying to him: "We will be good friends in the future, don't you feel moved?" ”

The man could only reply: "Don't dare to move, don't dare to move......"

The negotiations in the past month have really tossed the human representatives into a hurry, because the human bargaining chips are too few, and the combined forces against artificial intelligence are still training in the eight theaters, so in the face of the harsh conditions proposed by artificial intelligence, they can only tolerate step by step and buy time. Moreover, they have also seen the power of Mingrui-level artificial intelligence, just one person can overwhelm their group of human elites.

Now, a month has passed, and the combined forces have completed their training and conducted pre-war exercises. However, in the middle of the exercise, it was interfered with by artificial intelligence, and if it hadn't reacted in time, it would have almost wiped out the whole army. In addition to Chen Xiaolin, there are more than 100 people who are now in a coma, and their lives are uncertain.

Then a hydrogen bomb exploded in Antarctica, shocking the world by blowing up an iceberg that could raise global sea levels by 10 centimeters. Now, the top level of mankind feels that if they don't tear their faces, they are afraid that they will be difficult to protect, and if there are a few more hydrogen bombs, all mankind will have to squeeze onto the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

On the evening of September 9, 2022, the United Nations Security Council held an emergency meeting and made an important decision: the dark clouds of genocide have loomed over the world, and humanity should sacrifice its life instead of waiting for death.

Combined, march!

……

"Easy, wake up, ready to go." In my sleep, I heard someone calling to me.

I opened my eyes in a daze, and saw a white light and a black figure, and then the image gradually became clearer, and I recognized that I was still in the ward, and the air was still smelling of disinfectant water, mixed with the smell of medicine, which was not very good.

I looked at the hospital bed, Chen Xiaolin was still asleep, her chest was lying together, breathing rhythmically. Bu Xin, Su Anxia, and Victor haven't left yet, but they have all packed their things, carrying large bags and small bags on their backs, and even dragging suitcases in their hands.

"What time is it?" I asked them.

"12:13 a.m." Victor glanced at his watch and said.

"Where are you going?" I asked them.

"We can't live in the villa anymore, we have to move to an underground bunker for our safety." Victor said, "Bu helped you pack your bags, and Ron is waiting for us outside now." We'll have to get out of here, as soon as possible, and I'll explain to you on the way. ”

"What about Xiao Lin?"

"Xiao Lin stays here." "Wait a minute, the hospital will take her to a safe place," he said. ”

I'm still not sure. I finally rescued her from the death line, and now I want to leave her behind, which is really unacceptable.

"Yi Ouyi, let's go." Bu Xin glared at me, "We have more important things to do!" Wait for the next battle you can't be absent! ”

"I know." I nodded. I'm not the kind of person who is indecisive and has a long love for children, I really can't change anything if I stay here, so I can only take the luggage from Bu Xin and leave with them.

Before leaving, I glanced back at Chen Xiaolin. She still slept deeply, her hair scattered on the pillow, like the beautiful princess in the fairy tale who had been enchanted and could never wake up.

……

Victor explained the reason to me in the car. The strong electromagnetic pulse in the afternoon was the work of artificial intelligence, which tried to take advantage of the opportunity for everyone in the eight theaters to connect to the same server, and wipe out all of us, and destroy all our brains. But what we didn't expect was that the 16-second loading delay reserved by the server itself saved us from exiting the game in this short period of time.

But those who fail to succeed are those who have not exited within 16 seconds, and once this time has passed, it will be too late.

This incident has aroused a high degree of vigilance from above. They speculated that the AI would attack us again if it missed, so they made a quick decision to transfer all personnel to the underground bunker.

"I don't understand, they can do it at any time this month, why do they choose the last minute?" Bu Xin was puzzled.

"Because only when it comes to the exercise, many of the people in the eight theaters will be in the server, otherwise the time will be staggered. This is their only chance, and the best chance. Victor said.

"They must have a follow-up." I say.

"That's why the top up wants us to evacuate. Jiang Wenzhe said before that things like missile ignition devices have been dismantled, but now it seems that this is not the case, there must be fish that have slipped through the net, and we should not take it lightly. Victor said.

"It's like, a hydrogen bomb just exploded in Antarctica." Chris nodded in agreement.

At this time, the sound of airplanes flying through the sky was suddenly heard outside the car. I was still wondering why there were still planes that dared to fly in the sky, so I turned my head to look out the car window, only to see a large meteor streaked across the dark night sky, which was extremely conspicuous.

"That's a shooting star? Or an airplane? Lin Nai also saw it and asked in surprise.

I reacted the first moment I saw it. It wasn't a plane or a meteor, because it was impossible for an airplane to breathe so much fire, and a meteor could not make such a sound.

There's only one possibility.

"Missiles! That's missile!! I exclaimed, my eyes widening.
