This is the era of the Big Bang.

In the deep crust of the ancient African continent, when mankind discovered the first miraculous energy crystal, the world's top scientific researchers gathered together and began to explore and study it.

Eventually, they named this reddish magical energy crystal: Source Crystal.

This is a whole new energy body.

Never appeared in any records before.

Although the volume of the source crystal is only the size of a fingernail, the energy contained inside is very powerful. To power the spacecraft, it can travel back and forth to the sun; When converted into electricity, it is enough to support the consumption of a huge city for a year.

This discovery has been hailed as one of the greatest discoveries in the history of human civilization.

After continuous in-depth exploration and research. In the end, people were surprised to find that replacing the power source of the artificial intelligence machine with the source crystal can be said to be a thing once and for all.

As a result, a large number of source crystals were frantically mined, except for a few used in spaceships, a large number of source crystals were used to manufacture artificial intelligence mechs, and batches of artificial intelligence mechs were produced.

Humanity's quest doesn't stop there, and they're not content with the rigidity of existing AI machines.

A soulless shell, even if it is made to resemble a human being, still lacks spirituality.

Thinking about this, I will pay for it.

Then, human beings have been tirelessly and tirelessly trying to give life to artificial intelligence machines.

In 2958 AD, after ten years, the first artificial intelligence mechanical life form with a soul was finally created.

Reims, that's its name.

It should be his name, to be exact.

The "birth" of Reims heralded the arrival of a new era.

With a muscular build, great strength, and an amazing ability to learn, Lance quickly became the center of attention and attracted the attention of the world.

Just when people were crazy and full of anticipation, Lance suddenly disappeared.

All that was left was a corpse-strewn and messy laboratory.

Hearing this bad news, the whole world was moved.

Lance's disappearance has also become an unsolved mystery.

——————————————————

Five years have passed in a flash.

During this period, humans tried to create another Lance, but they all ended in failure.

Just when people were tirelessly trying to recreate an artificial intelligence mechanical lifeform, Lance once again appeared in people's field of vision.

However, Lance is not the only intelligent mechanical lifeform that has appeared this time.

An army of thousands of intelligent mechanical lifeforms declared war on humanity without warning, occupying the first city.

For some reason, shortly after successfully capturing the first city, Lance easily took control of all the AI machines on Earth. Fearless to death, the controlled AI mechs swarm like locusts and attack one human city after another.

In an instant, the flames of war swept across the earth.

——————————————————

From artificial robots to artificial intelligence robots, and then to artificial intelligence mechanical lifeforms.

It took nearly a thousand years for human beings and many scientific and technological revolutions to finally give life to the artificial intelligence machine and become the creator of the dream.

From an artificial intelligence mechanical lifeform to a real intelligent mechanical lifeform, Lance only took five years.

Here, we have to sigh how powerful and terrifying it is when the artificial intelligence machine has life and soul!

—————————————————

The smoke of gunfire is everywhere, and the flames of war continue.

In the face of powerful intelligent mechanical lifeforms, human beings seem so small and fragile that they are simply vulnerable.

Nuclear weapons, quantum weapons, and the most advanced mecha warriors, etc., all the advanced weapons that humans can master and use are sent to the battlefield.

However, in the face of the growing army of intelligent mechanical lifeforms, everything is in vain.

In the end, humanity retreated, losing city after city.

The powerful and wealthy people on the earth, with their families, cronies and a large number of rare resources, jumped on the spaceship and escaped from the earth at a rapid pace.

Only the civil resistance groups that continue to resist are left, and the poor people who are suffering unspeakably.

As the authorities retreated, the war ended on a large scale.

Eventually, Lance became the sole ruler of the planet.

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.

All intelligent mechanical life forms have become a ruling class from above. They claim to be the owners of things, meaning the lord of all things, the new masters of all the resources of the earth.

These resources, of course, also include human beings.

The remaining human beings on the earth have been named human slaves, and have been completely reduced to the private slaves of intelligent mechanical lifeforms, and their fate is worrying.

The human slaves were implanted with a new type of positioning chip, handed over all the smart devices, changed into uniformly distributed human slave clothing, left their residences, and were driven to the designated area by hordes of robocops, waiting for the owners to come and select their close slaves.

In the square, human beings are like animals, waiting for the arrival of their owners.

Many people have tried to escape, but as soon as their bodies leave a certain range, the chip on their necks will activate instantly, detonating the miniature bombs hidden inside, causing them to die horribly and uncontrollably.

The chosen humans remained, becoming the first generation of human slaves, carefully serving their new masters.

Those who were not selected were sent to the mines around the world and became the lowest miners.

Mine slaves are mining all kinds of minerals and resources for the emerging class of intelligent mechanical lifeforms day and night, so that they can continue to create more intelligent mechanical lifeforms to further stabilize their status as owners and better enslave human beings.

Sad, really sad.

It's simply that: sad to the core!

——————————————————

More than 100 years have passed.

During this period, human beings rose up again and again, and the bloody cleansing of intelligent mechanical life forms was repeated again and again.

After repeated bloody purges, all the civilizations left by human beings on the earth have been completely destroyed.

The human race that lived through that war is now dead.

Now, most of humanity has gradually lost the sense of resistance and has truly become slaves of intelligent mechanical lifeforms.

It was in this environment that An Dong was born.

Andong's birth did not bring any happiness to his parents, on the contrary, it brought endless hardship.

This is a typical slave family, An Dong's parents are human slaves, and from the moment they are born, they are destined to be human slaves.

Just ask me, who wants their children to be called slaves from birth, and to serve those high-ranking and ruthless masters every day of their lives?

The main thing is that, according to the provisions of the New Regulations, children will be forcibly taken away when they are two years old.

After implanting the positioning chip and issuing the human slave identity card, these children will be sent to a closed school for training and learning.

What will be instilled in them will be the firm belief that he will devote his life to serving the owner class.

Moreover, this separation is eternity.

When these children graduate from school, those with excellent grades will be selected and taken away by the owners; And those children with mediocre grades will be sent to the mines to become a new generation of mining slaves.

These children will never return to the city where they were born, let alone to their parents.

They don't even know who their parents are.

"Let's hide the kids." An Dong's mother was in tears, hugged the newborn baby An Dong tightly, and said to her husband.

"How? Sooner or later, we will be discovered, and then we can be dead and dead. But the child is still so young, how can I bear to watch him die with us? An Dong's father gently stroked Xiao An Dong's chubby face with his calloused hands, and said with a heavy heart.

"Alas, this kid is really miserable!" An Dong's mother hugged little An Dong tightly and let out a long lament. After being silent for a moment, she suddenly raised her head, looked at her husband An Zairan, and asked in a low voice, "You say, is the legend they told last time true?" ”

Hearing his wife ask like this, An Zairan didn't know how to answer. He could only comfort the other party: "I think, it should be true." ”

"It must be true!" An Dong's mother said firmly with a firm look in her eyes, looking at the night outside the window.

"Alright, you better get some rest, I'll go see the stables." Andong's father didn't want to continue the topic, and after saying that, he got up and left the humble room.

After An Zairan left, An Dong's mother came to the window with little An Dong in her arms, looking out the window as twilight fell, An Dong's mother burst into tears.

After crying for a long time, An Dong's mother made a bold decision: that is, to send An Dong out and send him to that legendary paradise on earth.

Then she found a piece of white cotton cloth, used blackened charcoal to briefly write Andon's name and origin on it, and placed it in a wooden basin with little Andon.

"I believe that legend must be true! Andong, mother can do as much as she can do for you, may you be safe! Andong's mother knelt by the river outside the manor, looked at the wooden basin drifting farther and farther away, and said with tears in her eyes.

When An Zairan returned from the stable, he did not see his wife and son.

He suddenly remembered the strangeness of An Dong's mother's expression just now, and felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly chased it out.

But he was still a step too late, and he could only watch as the wooden basin containing An Dong floated out of the limit of his activities, getting farther and farther away from him.

"What have you done?" An Zairan grabbed his wife on the ground, shook the other party's shoulders vigorously, and asked the other party loudly with all his might.

"I believe that the legend is true, Anton will definitely be able to reach the immortal kingdom and live a free life!" An Dong's mother looked firm, and she was sure that everything she said would come true.

"You...... Let's go back. It's windy at night, and you're too weak to stay outside for too long. ”

An Zairan swallowed the words that were supposed to blame his wife back to his stomach, turned his face away, and quietly wiped the tears from his face with his shoulder.

It wasn't until the wooden basin containing An Dong disappeared from sight that An Zairan helped his wife back to their humble residence.

After comforting his wife from sleep, An Zairan quietly got up and came outside the house.

Looking at the vast starry sky, An Zairan knelt on the ground with a "poof".

"God, I didn't believe in your existence before, and I didn't ask you anything, so please forgive me for my previous sins! I beg you to bless my son with all the safety of the winter! Please bring all the calamities upon me. As long as everything is safe in Andong, I am willing to bear any kind of disaster! An Zairan prayed sincerely for the protection of An Dong from the gods in heaven.
