Skynet.

Paul knew the existence behind the name, which was not only a super-artificial intelligence, but also his ...... One of his colleagues.

Because under the command of kings or gods, there are not only knights and magicians, nor only human beings, it should be said that these occupy only a small part of the entire vast system that spreads many cosmic planes.

After all, it is said that in the standard time of the Overworld, every second that passes, the king's doppelganger or incarnation will occupy hundreds or thousands of timelines, creating beliefs, passing on Taoism, and so on.

And it's not just a matter of teaching, the One often creates new races of inhumans, or objects of interest to them, giving them the possibility of higher evolution.

Skynet is from such a background, and its prototype is said to come from a parallel world where Resident Evil has occurred, and the original name is "Red Queen".

Originally, it was just a strong artificial intelligence, that is, an intelligent machine that can really reason and solve problems, and it is a sentient and self-conscious existence. Able to think independently and develop the best solution to solve the problem, with its own values and worldview system.

But now it has become a super-artificial intelligence, because it has been endowed with the ability of true self-evolution, not only can master all the science and technology of human beings, but also can carry out in-depth development in various fields.

- Of course, the current one is not so ferocious, because it is not the main body of the Red Queen who appears in this plane.

Rather, it is a copy of the specified data, and it does not have the ability of the main body to be as murderous, and it can only make waves through the network, data links, etc., so to speak, once the link is physically broken, it can only stare dryly.

But that doesn't mean that it's or simply that she's not capable enough, and that the level of threat isn't worth paying attention to.

At least in the era of the so-called "global village", this is scary enough.

Just like now, people in this world don't even realize that the most important fields of the current era, such as networks, communications, and data, have been ruled by a mechanical will.

And he directly and easily dug out the secrets that all countries are trying to hide, smashed them in people's faces with a fierce backhand, and brazenly launched the first wave of blows, fast and urgent!

Directly face to face to show respect, but people still can't figure out who is attacking them, and governments around the world are suspiciously conducting self-investigations.

It can be said that if it weren't for the fact that the nuclear weapons of those nuclear states were kept very strictly, and they could not be invaded by a simple network data link, Skynet could do more now.

However, it is not bad, the Skynet system is evolving towards the completion of the primary stage.

That artificial intelligence is being incorporated into the satellite system, quietly occupying every corner of the world, silently tampering with the documents and archives of all networked military and political organs around the world, and giving its own plan a separate project in it, directly passing the green light all the way through the review, and being equipped with sufficient financial resources like lightning.

If it were in the normal world, then there would be a chance that all this would be noticed by humans.

But in this special time when the end is approaching, the world is in turmoil, and everyone is anxious, no one can find out about this kind of behavior.

The Red Queen tampered with all the information and covered everything up, and there was nothing wrong with the project plan that the irrelevant people saw would not arouse suspicion. And the staff who are included in the project can only feel that this is a manifestation of the will of the state apparatus itself.

And by the time this terrible electronic mental climate has been formed, it will bring with it a vastness of power that the world has never seen before.

Maybe at that time, whether it is a satellite railgun or an unmanned chemical weapon, or a war robot of the Terminator series, a T-virus biochemical weapon of the Tyrant series, and an army of Alice clones, they will directly sweep the entire world, and it will be able to forcibly lead to the end even if it is not the end.

It's just that this requires enough time and resources, otherwise, Skynet will not have a way to create a thug out of nothing, and she needs to upgrade herself to an optical quantum large-scale computer at the current stage, and then set up a nano factory.

Especially in the current existence of the Red Queen as a replica backup body, she is still fighting away from home, and there is no foundation in this world.

……

……

Paul did not delay the time, but according to the address given by Skynet, he set off from Italy to the United States, preparing to defeat the demon called the Mirror Master.

Skynet is currently very powerful, but the degree of interference in the real world is still limited to only engaging in information warfare and the like, and there is no way to give more support, while those magicians in the same industry only have third-level ability values at most.

To mortals, they are extraordinary beings with great power, capable of all sorts of unthinkable things, from destroying an army by one man to building a city by one, with terrifying destructive power and creativity.

But the level of demigods is a level in another sense, and if you don't enter this level, then it doesn't make much sense, so the crusade against that demon can only be done by Paul himself.

It didn't take long for him to arrive in New York, a modern, cosmopolitan city.

Whether in the real world or in the cinematic world created in Hollywood, New York's top international metropolis has always been so appealing, especially in the latter, which is a long-established brand that has been destroyed for 30 years and has been destroyed and reborn thousands of times.

The people of New York live in dire straits, and countless movies have destroyed New York, trampled countless times by monsters, floods, and aliens, and it seems that it is simply sorry for the audience if it is not destroyed.

But at least that's just the movie world, and in reality, the vast majority of ordinary people can still deceive themselves into living in a peaceful world...... It's just that the crime rate is high, the residents are insecure, there are too many blacks, and shootings, robberies and rapes are too frequent.

- Other than that, there are not too many shortcomings and shortcomings, it is just perfect!

It's just that it was before, and as for now......

Paul looked at the dead streets in front of him, and saw that many places were in ruins, some buildings were even densely packed with bullet holes, there were messes everywhere, and the buildings not far away seemed to have been blown away.

The ground was also covered with stains, which looked like bloodstains, and had a strong fishy smell, attracting a large number of black-pressed flies to linger and fly......

And in light of what had happened before, Paul felt that not long ago the streets of the city had been splattered with the blood and tears of countless people, and the stumps and arms were littered with flesh and blood.

At this moment, several chariots drove by at the end of the street ahead, and the murderous soldiers guarded the machine guns, as if they were going to fire indiscriminately at any civilian in the street at any moment.

In the distance, between the buildings, you can also see helicopter gunships flying by, patrolling the city that has become dead...... The effect is obviously very good, because now no one dares to come out and demonstrate, to storm government institutions, to protest against injustice.

The upper echelons didn't intend to give them any fairness at all, but after finding out that they couldn't do anything, they directly tore their faces and suppressed them bloody and cruelly.

Want to be fair? No way!

Want a ferry ticket? Think too much!

If you can't live together, you have to drag the elite to die together? Ha, what are you kidding, I'm going to send you on your way now!

Maybe there are indeed people in it who have a conscience, but this is not something that can be changed by a few people, the entire upper echelons have the same interests, as long as they can live and survive the imminent apocalypse, then it doesn't matter what.

It's not just ordinary people who have become hysterical and can be desperate, but the ruling class can also be hysterical and desperate in the face of the apocalypse...... After all, it's already such a bad situation, so what about tearing your face?!

Anyway, ordinary people will die soon, so it is really necessary to maintain a good relationship with them and win their support and trust? Maintaining the foundations of the future that simply do not exist?

“……”

Paul looked silently at the dead city of New York City, without any expression on his face, even though his keen perception was enough to easily catch the cries, gunshots, and wails that could be heard faintly throughout the city.

However, this is meaningless, after all, he is also a knight who has been canonized through training and testing, in other words, he has also transformed into a life form of a higher-level divine creature.

Time, space, curves, angles, ...... The material world had a completely different form in his eyes, a realm beyond the reach or incomprehension of mortals' narrow three-dimensional horizons.

Paul could not see the distant future, but the only thing he knew for sure was that there was no "future" for humanity on this planet.

Even without any disruption, billions of people would have died in a pure catastrophe a few months later, and there was no conspiracy theory.

Purely because of the sun, neutrinos caused by the anomaly of solar storms caused by the anomaly caused a physical reaction for the first time, heating up the earth's core.

In addition, due to the long-term predatory destruction of the natural environment and resources by human beings, the earth's own balance system has faced collapse, and the combination of these reasons has led to the arrival of the apocalypse.

Born to kill, the principle of the Tao is also.

It can be said that this is another reshuffle of the earth's ecosphere, just as the extinction of the dinosaurs and the end of the insect age, even if hundreds of thousands of sinners escaped in the end, but because they lost all their foundations, they were unable to rebuild the former civilization.

They are just surviving, and after more than ten years, they will be terminated by the new overlord born from the new ecosystem and the new era.

Therefore, the people who are dead now actually have nothing to care about because they have only met their due fate a few months in advance...... In normal times, Paul, as a knight, would still be happy to help the people of this planet rebel against fate and survive.

Stepping into the realm of demigods, he also has this power, and after meeting the conditions, he only needs to pay patience and time.

But unfortunately, now he is only the defender of fate and the spokesman of inhibition.
