Chapter 268: Killing a David
The next day, David, a tall humanoid robot like Lake, was called by the staff to follow them to breakfast.
The first batch of robots of David's model manufactured by Wieland Enterprises, at the beginning of manufacturing, was an attempt to imitate human beings, and the first generation of robots produced, usually behaving and lifestyle, also strive to be the same as normal humans, so as to make it easier for humans to accept this kind of high-imitation robots.
The robot David can eat the same diet as humans, eat food into the stomach, digest it, and turn it into energy in the body. Of course, David the robot can also go without eating for a long time and only consume the energy stored in his body.
This also avoids the tragedy of players like Lake, who are regarded as high-imitation robots who starve to death without eating.
Fortunately, Zhutian Online directly gave Lake some small care to the players who entered, and under the subsequent inspection of the metal technology instruments of the staff, the normal human body data of Lake and other players were disguised by Zhutian Online as data similar to that of David, a high-imitation robot.
Shot by the heavens online, the aborigines of this world can't find out that Lake's group of players are disguised infiltrators from the players' physical examinations and data.
The attributes of Lake's group of players happen to be much higher than normal humans, and compared with robots like David, they are really similar.
The six players who are still alive, or maybe five players, and an unknown creature 'ghost', all imitate David's reactions and behaviors, and live in the Wieland Enterprise Research and Test Base.
Lake also learned today that the time of this dungeon world is 2040, and it will be fifty-one years before 2091.
At that time, according to the plot of the movie and the online hints of the heavens, the plot of Prometheus will officially begin, and at that time, the Wieland enterprise will send the Prometheus scientific research spacecraft to leave the earth and go to the universe to find the alien planet of the Titans who are set as human creators in this copy world.
Fifty-one years, you have to be a robot for fifty-one years, during this period, you have to guard against being discovered and judged to be an unqualified high-imitation robot by the aborigines of this copy world, and then be destroyed by fate.
You also have to guard against the Davids, who are also players next to you, who may frame each other.
And now there are six players, David Ry, there is likely to be a 'ghost'!
The more Lake thought about it, the more he felt that this world of the Origin of Life and Immortal Replica was really a big hole!
It's no wonder that one player came up with some mental disorders and was eliminated.
It is estimated that the player finally won the lottery and was selected into this 'Origin of Life and Immortality' copy world, and just experienced great joy, and then found out that this is the alien origin world Prometheus, after understanding that he is the same as David, the high-imitation robot has just been activated This entry point, he experienced great compassion.
The mentally deranged player may have been farther than Lake's group of players thought, he had anticipated the difficult situation he would experience in the future, so the more he thought about it, the more sad and anxious he became, and after his mentality jumped completely, the gaffe of realization was destroyed by Peter's 'father'.
"Dude, you're relieved in advance!" Lake thought and glanced at the other five 'players' except for the genuine David.
Lake tried to distinguish which one was a 'ghost' that entered through an abnormal way based on the reactions of these people.
But after a day of observation, Lake couldn't tell which one was the 'ghost'.
These players looked at Lake's eyes with wariness.
In the following month, Lake's "high-imitation robot" David No. 2 and six other "high-imitation robots" David learned various knowledge of the human world and human living habits in the experimental base of Wieland Enterprise.
During this time, Lake and the players only met Peter once.
Now middle-aged Peter, the manufacturer of the first generation of high-imitation robots, his Wieland enterprise is in the stage of development and expansion, and there are too many things for him to do himself.
This month, he only took less than twenty minutes to meet the daughters he had made, these seven Davids.
Lake made Peter a cup of tea, and Peter, the father, told them his views on human life, and then went back to his business.
Fortunately, with this incompetent 'father', Lake also saved the job of making tea for him.
In the past, in the dungeon world, it was the aborigines in it who served Reck, but now in turn let Reke serve this Peter, and Reke really can't stand it after many times.
If it weren't for the mission world of Heavens Online, which made it clear that he couldn't attack and hurt Peter's father, Lake would have wanted to kill Peter, so he would have no worries.
Lake's seven Davids, in the first year of coming to this world, didn't have much to do, and stayed in this big experimental base every day, being taken by the staff to do some basic tests and learn some knowledge on their own.
A year later, the staff in this laboratory are not interested in studying these seven high-imitation robots, the research has been recorded for a year, and they have recorded all the data that can be recorded, and now the staff are also letting these high-imitation robots learn by themselves.
Check it only once a month.
Fortunately, because of the long duration of the mission, there are still fifty years to go, and it will be time for the final competition for the places on the main mission Prometheus scientific research spacecraft.
Neither Ryker nor the other five players, at the beginning of the quest world, chose to assassinate each other or make small moves against each other.
After all, if the first player is found to have done it, even if one player is disabled and eliminated, once the rest of the players are found to be the player who did it first.
This player will be deemed a threat by the remaining players, and will most likely face a collective attack sanction from the remaining players.
Lake and five other players and David, or possibly four players plus a "ghost", greet each other warmly and casually when they meet every day.
After a year of imitating David's life in the experimental base, these players now behave and behave in a way that is very similar to another genuine robot, David.
"They are all actors!" Lake sighed in his heart, this year, Lake gave priority to learning the content and various musical instruments in the ancient books and archaeological relics.
After all, after the start of the main quest 2, he arrived at the Titans' forward base, but he needed this knowledge to control the Titans' spaceship.
Although Lake and the players have the heavens online to assist in cheating and help record knowledge, there is no guarantee that like David's genuine high-imitation robot, just by learning during the two years of space travel in the Prometheus spaceship, he will fully master and integrate all the ancient texts and ancient knowledge, and achieve the ability to pilot the Titan spaceship.
Even after a year of study, Lake found that he didn't have the slightest clue, and now if he was asked to pilot the alien Titan's spaceship, he probably wouldn't even be able to take off.
Most of the rest of the players also learn these ancient knowledge and languages like Lake, and as for whether those players can learn it, Lake doesn't know.
The robot of genuine David looked at his brothers and read ancient books and records, and when he was fine, he also learned from it.
Since the second year, Lake's David robots have been allowed to move around the base, and can be accompanied by the staff to follow the staff out of the base to assist in carrying goods or driving vehicles.
Even when Lake followed the workers out of the base, he didn't act rashly and continued to do what his high-imitation robot should do.
In the blink of an eye, in the twenty-sixth year of this copy world, in 2066, the technology on this earth has developed to the point where spaceships can be made for space flight, and the people of this world have begun to explore space.
In another twenty-five years, according to the quest, the Prometheus research spacecraft will leave Earth and be funded by the Wieland enterprise to which Lake and other Davids belong, to explore the origin of mankind in space.
At that time, in addition to this genuine David, the remaining six Davids, including Lake's No. 2, will be eliminated at least half.
In addition to the genuine No. 1 David, there are now four men and two women with a total of six Davids, and Lake can't tell which of them is a 'ghost', so Lake doesn't want to add trouble to himself, he doesn't exist as a ghost, as long as he completes the main quest 1 first, getting a ticket to the Prometheus is the most important.
When the time comes, if the ghost makes a move, Lake will find a way to kill him.
In addition to David, the other five players of Lake, over the years, some players have begun to gradually curry favor with the aging Peter, the father.
After all, 25 years later, the landing quota of the Prometheus spaceship is up to Peter's 'father'.
Today, Lake, David's father, Peter, who is much older than before, has come to the experimental base belonging to Wieland Enterprises with a baby girl in his arms, and has called all seven Davids to his large white room with floor-to-ceiling windows.
Father Peter sat in a chair and hugged the baby girl in his arms with a smile on his face: "Davids, I will meet you my child, this is my daughter Vickers, and today is her first birthday. Peter, the old man, happily teased the baby girl in his arms and said to Lake's seven high-imitation robots.
Lake looked at the little baby girl, who in 25 years, named Vickers, would be aboard the Prometheus as the captain.
Although Vickers, who has grown up, has always been reluctant for her father Peter to go to space to find the origin of human beings and explore the dangerous titan species, her words are of no use to the powerful father Peter.
Lake looked at the little baby girl and smiled, this Vickers was in her father Peter's arms, and opened her little arms in the direction where Lake was standing, allowing Lake to hold her.
"Could it be that I raised the big red son of the hell boy, so I have a child!" Lake looked at the one-year-old Vickers baby girl, and was stunned when he asked her for a hug.
"No. 2, it seems that my daughter is more compatible with you, you will be responsible for taking her this afternoon!" Father Peter said.
When Lake heard this, he was completely surprised, he didn't want to take care of the children anymore, he was too tired.
And if his father Peter said so, he would bring hatred to himself from the other player David.
However, the words of his father, Peter, Lake knew that they could not be disobeyed and must be carried out.
This is also recognized by Lake's Davids over the years.
"Yes, Father!" As he spoke, Lake stepped forward and took Vickers, the baby girl in Peter's arms, and held him in his arms.
The little baby girl Vickers, strange to say, fell asleep peacefully after dozens of seconds in Lake's arms.
Seeing this, the other players, David, now look at Ryker's eyes strangely.
Lake secretly screamed in his heart, he was too special and showy today, so that the other players David felt that he was threatened.
Once he has brought Vickers and is valued by Peter's father, who is an old man, he may book a ticket for Prometheus by virtue of his status as a milk brother.
Players can attack each other, as long as they don't kill each other in the end, they won't be held accountable by Heavens Online.
At this moment, Lake felt the murderous aura that those players David emitted towards him, and it could also be Lake's own delusion.
But Lake decided, he ordered to do it first, he couldn't wait any longer, he was too passive.
Lake decided that he would reduce the number of players David to a total of three and eliminate three players.
In this way, counting the number of genuine robot David and their players, there are only four people in total, and the number of people boarding the ship will not exceed the number of people in the first phase of this Prometheus Copy World mission, and there will no longer be competition between players and hurting each other.
After all, the Prometheus Phase II Mission, although the Heavens Online has not yet been announced, but those of them who have experienced many copies of the world, according to the movie plot and the previous rules of the Heavens Online Release Mission, can more or less guess the Prometheus Phase II Mission, and the second phase should not be there competition between players.
The second phase is likely to allow players to board the Prometheus research ship to work together to complete a certain mission.
Lake thought with a wicked smile in his heart: "Let the three players be eliminated first, and you will be safe."
I wanted to wait a few more years to see if I could find out the identity of the 'ghost' player who was hidden among us players, and it wasn't a normal way to enter!
Since you want to do it to me now, you're going to blame me for being rude, and as for whether you can get rid of that 'ghost' by the way, leave it to fate! β
In the late afternoon, Lake took the baby girl of Vickers in his arms to the Wieland Enterprise Laboratory and went with a nanny to breastfeed, and Lake returned to his cabin.
After coming to this copy world for more than 20 years, the Wieland experimental base has been expanded several times as the scale of the Wieland enterprise has become larger and larger, and these high-imitation robots have also been assigned a separate room.
Unlike in the beginning, when seven Davids were going to live in a big house.
In the twenty-six years that Lake has been in this world, although he has not done anything to the other five David players, Lake has also made some preparations and has not been sitting still.
After all, Lake also knows that in the first phase of the main quest, this is a competitive quest between players.
Lake took out six small gold-level cursed puppets hidden under the bed and tied to the iron bed board with strips of cloth.
These are three cursed puppets in the form of male player David, two puppets for each male player, which Lake has secretly made over the years.
For more than twenty years, when Lake was able to go out of this laboratory base, he took the time to carve it out with the cursed jumping knife in his hand when no one else was watching.
The carved silver, bronze, and black iron-level cursed puppets were directly abandoned and thrown away by Lake, leaving only the gold level.
After all, the gold-level cursed puppet, once the curse effect is activated, the damage is large, and the curse time is still long, so it can have the effect of hitting with one hit.
There aren't many places where Lake can hide puppets in his room now, and he is not allowed to hide dozens of small cursed puppets, so he can only pick the highest-grade gold-level cursed puppets he can carve now and bring them back.
"Anyway, I can't tell which of the five player David is a ghost!
simply killed all three male players except for himself.
Only two women, David and himself, were left, plus the original David robot.
In this way, two male Davids and two female Davids are just right for men and women to work together without getting tired! Lake had a plan in mind.
Of course, Lake didn't rush to do it, after all, it was not easy to carve and transform a gold-level cursed puppet.
Lake is also waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the best one move, so that his 'father' Peter, can directly choose to ruin the opportunity of a male David player.
The next morning, Peter's 'father' was going to walk around the lab base with his daughter Vickers in the sun.
The nanny said that babies should bask in the sun more at this stage to avoid calcium deficiency.
Seven high-fidelity robot David was also called to follow, but this time Lake didn't go out of his way to step forward.
Several other players, David, deliberately approached the baby girl, his father, Peter and Vickers, on the grass outside.
Peter, the father, was holding the baby girl in a wheelchair, and a nanny was pushing wheels.
The baby girl, Vickers, once again held out her hands to a male David player, begging for a hug.
"This unlucky child, it seems that anyone can hold it!
She didn't want people to sit in a chair and hug her, she wanted someone standing to carry her away to be comfortable!
Yesterday, I guess I was so close that I was looking for a hug. Lake thought after looking at it.
David, the player who was asked to hug, was happy when he saw it.
"No. 7 David, come and hold Vickers, it just so happens that I'm old and can't hold it anymore." Peter, the father in a wheelchair, said.
The seventh man, David, immediately stepped forward, "Okay, father! After speaking, he raised his hand and carefully took the baby girl from Peter's arms in a wheelchair and held it steady.
This male David called No. 7 is estimated to have practiced with a pillow after going back yesterday, and now the posture of holding the baby girl Vickers is that standard, which is better than the No. 2 David yesterday!
The baby girl, Vickers, soon lay in the arms of the seven-player David, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
"I can really sleep, I know how to sleep!" Lake sighed as he watched the baby girl close her eyes at Venus.
A nanny pushed Peter's wheelchair, followed by seven Davids, strolling on the grass outside the experimental base.
Lake walked for a while, feeling almost over, and his hand went deep into his pocket, breaking the right foot of the male player David Seven who was holding the baby Vickers girl.
"Oops!" This player No. 7 who was walking on the lawn, suddenly stepped into a dirt pit under his feet and didn't pay attention, his feet actually stumbled, and his body fell forward, fortunately, as a player, his strength is also strong, holding the baby girl Vickers in his arms with both hands, lying flat, not letting her be hurt at all, and standing firm in half squatting.
Peter's father, who was watching from the sidelines, frowned slightly and didn't say anything.
Lake raised his hand and broke the number seven's left foot.
Player Seven suddenly cramped his left foot, and one of them did not stand firmly, and fell on the grass, although the baby girl in his arms was still holding in his hand and did not fall, but he was also awakened by fright and began to cry.
Peter on the side frowned when he saw it.
"Give me the baby!" Peter's father said coldly.
Seven also knew that he had done something wrong, and he quickly got up, he could not disobey Peter's orders, and immediately handed over the child.
"Father, listen to meβ" David on the seventh had not finished speaking.
Peter's father handed the child to the nanny behind him, and he pressed the electronic remote control on the bracelet in his right hand
With a "bump", this No. 7 David fell on the lawn with a frightened expression.
The prompt voice of Zhutian Online sounded in the heads of players such as Lake: "Player Seven David is dead and is about to be destroyed." β
Soon, two staff members with stretchers came from the laboratory base, carried the body of player seven David onto the stretcher, and transported it back to the laboratory base.
The rest of the players, David, tried their best to keep their facial expressions unchanged, but they all knew in their hearts that in the past twenty-six years, the elderly father Peter, who had not made any more moves against them, did not look at the kindness he had with them all these years, but as long as he did something that might hurt him or his relatives, this old man was still the Peter who did not hesitate to kill them at the beginning.
"Come back with me, Davids, and I'll teach you a lesson!" Peter, the father, got up directly from his wheelchair and said to Lake and the Davids, then turned around and walked in the direction of the base laboratory first.
More than ten minutes later, inside the base, Peter's father led six Davids to the room where he had first met the robots.
In the room with white floors, walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, murals, and a grand piano.
Six Davids sat in a row of old-fashioned wooden chairs, and an elderly Peter stood in front of them.
"Vickers is my own daughter, and you are my sons and daughters too!
Remember my order today, and under no circumstances will you ever do anything to my daughter Vickers!
You can choose not to obey her orders, but I won't allow you to hurt her.
Don't be clever enough to try to indirectly or directly harm my daughter Vickers, or the consequences will be the same as today's number seven David.
As a father, there is nothing wrong with me sharing some love with my own daughter!
Today's No. 7 David, as a high-imitation robot, can walk on the grass and fall down twice in a row, even if I, a human old man, walk on that grass, I will not fall.
What's more, it's the grass outside the laboratory that you have walked countless times over the years! Peter said to Lake and David with some anger.
After listening to Peter's words, Lake and the other players got a prompt from the heavens online: "According to the previous settings of the Prometheus Quest World, all players must resolutely obey Peter's orders.
Now Vickers is set by Peter that he is not allowed to attack targets.
All players who attack Vickers will be wiped out! β
Lake laughed to himself when he heard the news, it seems that his guess is correct, the previous Heavenly Heavens Online prompted, the player must resolutely obey Peter's order This requirement, in fact, hides a strong permission restriction setting.
All orders after Peter, they must obey, even if they let the players die, the players can only obey. Therefore, we must not provoke Peter, the father, in the future.
"Go back, think about it!" When Peter had finished speaking, he drove all David away.
Leaving the room, the other players all had cold faces and gloomy expressions.
With twenty-five years to go, it would be a little more careful to survive under Peter's father, who held the power of life and death over them.
Lake and the players have now realized that it is no wonder why the robot David in Prometheus in the movie was in a hurry to take his father Peter to the sleeping pod of the Titans and wake up the Titans to meet his father Peter.
It is estimated that David, the first generation of robots who had self-thinking at that time, also wanted to completely get rid of Peter's father's shackles on him, so that his father Peter suddenly died at the hands of the Titans.
In this way, Peter's sudden death will not arrange for a successor who will subsequently control him, and he will be free in the future, and he will be completely free.
Solving a competing player, Lake is not in a hurry to do it again, and the death of two Davids in a short period of time is easy to alert other players even if it is an accident.
And this time, the death of a No. 7 player, David, was killed by Peter's father, and Lake feels that at least in a year or two, the players will be able to settle down.
A few days later, the father, Peter, again took his one-year-old daughter, Wix, out in the sun.
This time, no player stepped forward to hug Vickers, after all, No. 7 is still cold, if No. 7 still has bones.
However, Vickers, the little baby girl, finally opened her hands to Lake and begged for a hug.
Lake looked around, and when his father Peter, who was in a wheelchair before, was about to turn in the direction where they were standing, although he took a step back, the other players David, even the genuine David, wanted to take three steps back, so that he was still standing in front of all the Davids.
"Two, you come to hug Vickers, it seems that she still likes you to hug!" Father Peter said to Lake with a smile.
"I like you big-headed ghost!" Lake was secretly unhappy in his heart, but he could only step forward, "Yes, father", and bent down to carefully hold the baby girl of Vickers's age.
Today's Vickers seems to have taken a nap too much before coming out, and he has been looking around dishonestly when he is held in Lake's arms.
Lake held the baby girl Vickers in his arms and walked along the grass outside the lab with Peter in a wheelchair.
Lake was also terrified in his heart, feeling that what he was holding was not a one-year-old baby girl, but a big bomb that would blow him up if he fell down if he couldn't hold it well.
Peter, the father who just killed No. 7 a few days ago, estimates that if he falls again, he will also kill himself, a fake high-imitation robot.
"Self-inflicted!" Lake sighed in his heart, fortunately, after more than an hour of walking around in the sun, the little baby girl Vickers was also sleepy, lying on Lake's shoulder to sleep.
Lake didn't succeed in not falling, after all, his physical attributes, even if he was holding a baby girl, unless he was attacked, it was really difficult to fall.
Father Peter asks Lake to hand over Vickers to the nanny and take him back to bed, and he also tells all the Davids to go back to the lab base, and he himself is in a wheelchair, leaving him on the lawn outside, looking up at the blue sky.
