Chapter 305: God's Plan
Qiao Lu returned to the forward base of the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force, and at this time, the climate in Antarctica seemed to have become more abnormal, and the temperature that was originally minus seventy or eighty degrees Celsius had now broken through the -90oC mark, approaching minus 100 degrees.
If it weren't for the extreme cold of the wandering earth, I'm afraid the expeditionary force would not be able to adapt to working in such a harsh environment, and everything around them seems to have returned to the most difficult time at the beginning, but now the equipment on their bodies has been updated several times.
The Kun fighter landed on the thick snow, raising a flurry of snowflakes.
Qiao Lu walked out of the cabin and asked Liu Peiqiang, who was coming up, "Why did it become so cold all of a sudden?" Even the South Pole is too abnormal. โ
"yes, I'm trying to find a planetary engine to keep warm." Liu Peiqiang said half-jokingly.
Qiao Lu glanced at him and said, "Is this how the planetary engine is used?" โ
Liu Peiqiang said very seriously: "If necessary, it is used like this." โ
The two of them walked into the Forward Base Headquarters, and the others were busy with their own work, and during the time that Qiao Lu was away, they gathered more information and learned more about what was happening in the Overwatch world.
Zhang Zhezhong had been waiting in the conference room for a long time, and when he saw Qiao Lu coming back, he hurriedly asked him:
"How is it, Qiao Lu, have you successfully reached out to the Overwatch organization?"
Qiao Lu nodded and said, "Yes, but it will take a while to convince them to cooperate with us." โ
"yes, then I'll leave this matter to you."
Zhang Zhezhong then took out a document and said: "During your absence, we have also investigated more things about this world. First of all, there is the current climate anomaly, which is obviously not a natural occurrence, but a man-made climate catastrophe like our Wandering Earth project, but not as exaggerated as we were at the beginning. โ
"What caused that?" Qiao Lu asked.
Zhang Zhezhong replied: "According to the analysis of our climatologist, it seems to be related to the change in the trajectory of the moon. A similar climate occurred when we used planetary engines to push the moon away, so we suspect that something is quietly changing the moon's orbit. โ
"Something on the moon?"
Jolu immediately remembered Winston's hometown, Horizon Moon Base, where it had been genetically modified to become the highly intelligent gorilla it is today.
Then maybe Winston will have a clue, and even the changes that have taken place in it have something to do with something on the moon.
"As for the other thing, it's the problem that the first generation of intelligent machines that Bill mentioned earlier had human emotions, and we've found the reason."
Zhang Zhezhong called in Bill, the computer expert from last time, and asked him to explain their latest discovery to Qiao Lu.
"Ahem, the reason is actually quite simple." Bill cleared his throat and said, "The intelligent technology possessed by humans in this world was not invented by themselves at all, but was discovered from a series of ancient civilization relics. โ
"Relics of an ancient civilization?"
This discovery suddenly made Qiao Lu even more curious, the intelligent machine technology in Overwatch was actually unearthed by digging up the ruins of ancient civilizations.
What is this concept? Could it be that during the primitive tribes, humans already knew how to build intelligent robots?
Bill continued, "Yes, the ruins of ancient civilizations that have been confirmed to be connected to the Wisdom Civilization are: the Temple of Anubis, the Nepalese Sanctuary, the Ruins of Ilios, the City of Petra, and so on. โ
"The human beings in this world have created a large number of intelligent machines through the technology found in the ruins of these ancient civilizations?"
In this way, it is understandable why humans are so ignorant of intelligent machines. The technology itself to make smart machines doesn't belong to human beings, and of course I don't know how to understand the idea of smart machines.
No wonder there is a cyber crisis!
"But where exactly does this technology come from? It can't really be created by ancient humans. โ
Qiao Lu asked further, it would be too bizarre if this was the case.
"It's hard for us to confirm that. Unless we are able to visit these sites in person, we will not be able to know the truth. Bill said with a helpless shrug.
Zhang Zhezhong took over the topic and said: "Except for the Nepalese sanctuary that is occupied by a group of intelligent monks who believe in Zhitong, other relics have been contracted and developed by enterprises. The developer of one of the ruins was the first company to launch the smart machine as a product, which further validated our idea that the smart machine technology came from the relics of ancient civilizations. โ
It is conceivable that one of the companies must have started to die, and then other businesses found it profitable and followed suit, which eventually led to the situation where smart machines are everywhere today.
"In the course of investigating these companies, our hackers also found a file called 'God's Project', but unfortunately the file was deleted, and we were only able to recover part of it."
Bill tapped on his keyboard, and soon a few photographs were projected on the screen in the conference room, which were the relics of the Anubis Temple, the Nepalese Sanctuary, the ruins of Ilios, and the city of Petra.
"The archives mention that a powerful super AI has been unearthed in the ruins of this ancient civilization, with the ability to control all the intelligent devices linked to it, and the core of God's plan is ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
"Collect and use these super AIs to control all the intelligent machines in the world?"
Qiao Lu directly interrupted Bill's words and said that if they could do this, then at least in the wisdom machines, they would be gods.
Now that everything is finally becoming clear, this organization that is digging up the ruins of ancient civilizations, trying to gather all the super AIs and carry out God's plan, is the real force trying to control this world!
"This organization uses one eye as their emblem, so we call it the eye of the sky for the time being," Zhang said. There is no doubt that all the companies that try to excavate the relics of ancient civilizations are part of them, but I am afraid that they are far from all of them. โ
"I get it, it would be much better for us to know that."
As soon as the words fell, Qiao Lu received a communication from the monitoring station in Gibraltar, and it seemed that Winston had thought it through.
Qiao Lu picked up the communication, and the screen immediately showed Winston's characteristic orangutan face with glasses, and said to Qiao Lu with a serious face:
"Jolu, I'll admit you're right, neither the Black Claw nor the Wisdom Machine are our worst enemies. We need to talk about it again, you say? โ
"Of course, I'd love to."
This time, Qiao Lu was more sure that he would be able to convince Overwatch to reach a cooperation with The Wandering Earth.
The various black technologies they have mastered are already in Qiao Lu's bag!
