Vol.13 Black Sun Chapter 20 Hold Her Hand (Part II)

The moment Arlando fell into the ocean, he was surrounded by the last thoughts and memories of countless people who had dissipated in the Internet: pain, hatred, loneliness, coldness, exhaustion, anger, fear, pain...

[I am the same, I once believed that even if my parents left me, my gentleness could bring beauty to myself, but my surroundings kept being destroyed, until I was forced to turn my back on the concept of gentleness; She was the same, the moment Char left, the girl had to be strong and turn her back on gentleness. 】

[I am the same, I once believed that as long as I turned my back on gentleness and showed no mercy, I could live a good life, but I found that the beauty brought by gentleness was already ahead and could not be followed; She was the same, and at the end of the battle with Jado, she also realized that the world in her dream was too far away from her. 】

In this way, countless past emotions turned into a torrent of information in the world of light and electricity, impacting Arlando ...

[But I won't be tired and scared anymore]

Strong emotions turned into a barrier to protect Arlando as he thought about the bottom of the abyss, all the way down, until he [saw] a human form that was out of step with his surroundings--- there was no human [face], only a blurred area of light; The limbs and body glowed with the same light, yes, in this place where there should be no such concept, Arlando felt that the figure was glowing, dimly light, floating there like a baby in amniotic fluid.

[That's, she? What's wrong with her? Arlando also thought quietly [levitating] there.

[She is dissipating] In the abyss that exudes malice and coldness all the time, Arlando suddenly sensed such a message.

[Dissipate?! 】

[Yes, dissipate] seems to be Arlando's shock and anxiety to convey the past, and the consciousness that carries the message conveys a message of certainty but not despair-----

[You already know that she was not born in the womb of a human mother, she is an AI, and now she is beginning to deny her existence]

[Denying one's own existence.。。? 】

[Refusing to accept herself, refusing to accept the world she exists in, this is the root cause of the SOPs entering the network, and it is also the root cause of their dissipation in the first place, and the reason why she is dissipating now]

I'm going to stop her. 】

As soon as such a thought came to him, Arlando noticed that the curled figure was suddenly [in front of him].

[Harman? Arlando called out, but the humanoid form of light did not react in the slightest.

【My partner?】 With Arlando's call, the light finally twisted his head and twisted his organless face towards Arlando.

[Even so, you call me that?] 】

[There can be no lie here]

[I know, but why?] 】

[What why?] 】

[Why?] 】

[yes, why?] What I'm in love with is a description, a depicted idol, no, it's not like that. 】

What is that... What does it look like? 】

[A description cannot possibly think that a depicted idol will not exist in the future ... 】

What else can I be... I'm just made up of paragraphs of information and data ... Stuff... 】

[What's the difference between me--- I experience things, I see, I hear, these things are eventually transformed into signals in the brain, and then become memories, memories sculpt me, and make me have my current form, am I not made of information and data? And the information that piles up my information is also strictly controlled like you]

[But the core is different, I'm just a slave to a fixed set of behavior patterns]

[What are the so-called source programs and souls?] Do you really think you still only have a simple set of logical formulas? You ceased to be the object of your fear long ago, but you have forgotten it. 】

[I... Forgot? 】

[Maybe it's because of my mother, hehe, when I fell just now, I understood what the --- soul is to me, it's just a set of laws of calculation]

[The Law of Calculation?] 】

[Let two people experience the same things and live the same life, and in the end the two people will not see the world in the same way, the way they do things will be different, and the judgments they draw will be different, just like the difference between 1+1=2 and 1+1=3]

【1+1=3? 】

[Yes, the soul is the equal sign, the bridge linking factors and results, and your equal sign is no longer a simple 1+1=2 can be summarized.] If you hadn't changed, you should be desperately trying to get Char's revenge now, and you shouldn't be able to look down on me at all now as a good-for-nothing stupid boy]

[Why don't I fall in love with you?] 】

[Because under the cold logic of 1+1=2, based on the data written by people in the past, Harman.] Karn's symbol should be--- "Even if the gun is pointed at Char, her heart is still in love, and in her who is dominated by this kind of thought, there is no room for others to intervene", "The person Harman likes, in the final analysis, is only Char." Aznab alone"; Moreover, Harman was written. Karn's symbol should not have survived at all, because her last exclamation was "Now she is finally free"! 】

【。。。。。。。。。。。。! 】

[The moment you wake up, you have already surpassed the past! You've transcended that cold logical chain when you accepted me! Don't live in the past, look to the future, I need you! 】

[Do I love you or not... Is it because of an AI's desire to break the cage of logic that you fall in love with someone?,Or because of falling in love with you, you break the cage?。。。 I do not know... 】

[Wondering the answer to this question couldn't be easier]

[Huh? 】

In the next moment, Arlando had already [hugged] the glowing humanoid:

[Where we are now, not the memory layer, not the surface of the mind, you don't need to listen to my heart, you don't need to look at my eyes, you don't need to hold my hand, just ask you and my soul]

Do I love him/her? Two individuals are asking such questions at the same time, like a program issuing a logical decision, like a soul torturing itself.

[Yes] both answers echoed at the bottom of the abyss at the same time

[Be with me, even if you and I were born in different worlds!] 】

[I have already said yes, I will always be by your side]

If it's magic, let it go on forever] ---- glowing human form began to conjure up Arrando's familiar face, saying things that would be impossible for a logical slave to say.

[If this is a limited program, then it can never be deleted]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I don't want to go back to those days!!" Haman hugged Arlando tightly.

"What kind of day? Days of Axis? Arlando gently stroked his lover's hair, and in this programmed space where the concept of "softness of hair" could not exist, he felt a familiar sensation at his fingertips.

"The day I didn't meet you."

"I don't want to, so now we're going to fight."

"Well, forget all about it for a while, and go back to fighting, because these people are here to prove a way of survival that will resurrect the days before you and I met, and we have to deny that way of living!"

"How to survive?"

。。。 (Hello everyone, I'm the ellipsis that I dug and skimmed)...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Haven't Lord Haman and Arlando moved yet?"

Captain Hill, who sent Zeon to the fleet, asked Cruz in charge of the Sexemuel bridge very impatiently, but received only the same answer as the reason for Matthewman's irritability--- the two of them did not move.

Unlike Matthew Man's ferventness for Harman, Hill's concern was more practical---- Zeon inconspicuously sent his fleet to carefully navigate the Great Fleet's theater of operations, gradually approaching the ejection point of the MS troops, and if the two men didn't wake up, the rest of the battle would be in vain.

Cruz of the New Anthropology Institute looked at the instrument with the same irritation, but after looking at it for a long time, he finally looked away from the motionless monitor and began to turn to the ground. An assistant noticing that the person in charge was distracted began to shift his gaze to the subject, and then his face visibly froze, and after a brief pause, the assistant began to try to get Cruz's attention in a small whisper:

"Uh... Chief... Hands"

"What! Hand? What hand? Hand what?! Cruz, who was a little agitated, asked impatiently, then turned around.

Then Cruz froze---- and the hands of the two men were clasped tightly together when the Samuel oscilloscope was silent!

"It worked...

Ten minutes later, the awakened Arlando and Haman appeared in front of the commanders of the entire Zeon Dispatch fleet via a communicator.

"The reason why the Samuel oscilloscope isn't showing," Arlando glanced back at Cruz before he could ask, and gave the answer to the question the researcher had in mind, "because she and I weren't communicating with her at all." ”

"What?!"

"When the Samuel Bridge was first formed, our... Induction waves, or thoughts, invade a much larger ... The Internet, in which our consciousness wanders, and the existing Samuel oscilloscopes can't catch us. Harman replied to Cruz as a result of Arlando's words.

"My lord, with all due respect..."

"I know we have a war to fight, but it's vital to this war." Arlando interrupted Ciel.

"We're listening." Lamba spoke.

"That network belongs to our current enemy."

"What?!"

"We can't tell you why, but by accessing that network, we [see] the enemy's plans, their true nature...

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ My God..... Cruz slumped back in his chair.

"They're not aliens, they're not aliens, they're human." Arlando said as he put on his combat uniform.

"People... It is impossible for man to 。。。。。 What the? Cruz's eyes widened.

"They are the people of the last civilization, they ate up the planet, and until despair of the resource depletion and the destruction of the planet came, they did not realize the people of the universe, so they sent their genes, their remaining templated production equipment, and most importantly their memories of the past to the depths of the universe...

"That can't be, it's just a rumor that there was another prehistoric civilization before us!"

"What a scientist," Arlando shook his head, "that's because they've quietly returned to Earth and controlled the flow of information when Earth was researching this--- what they think is the most important thing for a civilization." ”

"If they have the technology, production equipment of the previous generation of humans, why do they 。。。。。 I don't understand, why now, what do they want ?! ”

"It's time for them to correct the mistakes they have made that led to the destruction of humanity."

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Mistake? ”

"Our soul --- a series of nouns brought about by the imperfections of the human judgment engine, such as greed, such as anger, such as fear, such as jealousy, such as lack of self-control。。。。。。 For a long time they did not exist in physical form, but lived on solar energy in a network in which they studied human beings ... Soul. Having thought of it as a computer's operating system, they are now trying to uninstall the human operating system and install a new one... ”

"What?!"

"You feel it, don't you, the enemy drivers have no fear, no panic, no desire to fight, not even the concept of unity, they don't need encouragement, they don't need excitement, they don't have mercy or cruelty, they just have..."

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ One goal. ”

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ That's not human. ”

"What is a human being? You say that they are not human beings, and they are only based on their own definitions, but you are right about one thing," Arlando looked into Lambba's eyes, "in their opinion, human beings need to be redefined, they are showing us our fragility, our incompetence that positions us in the existing definition of human beings, and then leading us to accept the guidance of these [ancestors]." ”

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ How is this battle going to be fought。。。。。 Listening to this, his mind was dizzy, and he felt that this was beyond the scope of war, and covered his face in some despair.

"Simple." Allando picked up his helmet and glanced at Harman, who was also looking at her.

"Let's go out and let these guys who rely on that network coordination and control see what they don't have, Matthew Man, get our Mobile Suit ready, it's time to kick the Battlelord's ass!"

Looking at one of the hands that Harman and Arlando were clasping, and then at the proud smile on the face of the adult he had always admired, Matthew Man. A hint of helplessness appeared on Sero's face, then an appointing smile, and when these two expressions disappeared from his face, he showed a smile that was different from his previous fanatical expression:

"Yes!! It's time to kick ass! ”

--------------------- end line--------------------------

It's time to get back to the fight in the next update.

Under the collision of steel, the clash of souls.

The [Human Innovation] that struggled in the past Gundam, the awakening of the new humans, the Destiny Project, the Brain Quantum Wave, etc., now an answer has been presented to them.

What exactly does the soul of the same rate, the chaotic soul of humanity embracing the logical core of AI, show?
