Chapter 111: The Farewell Gift of the Ownerless
"Your name is Newman, isn't it?" Ye Yuxuan walked up to the other party and slowly squatted down while asking, while looking at the other party carefully.
"Hmm...... That's right," Newman nodded, as if he thought Ye Yuxuan had forgotten his brother's name, and hurriedly added: "My brother's name is Webster, and his surname is Cheever like me......"
It's too similar, after some mention by Yui, this is the first time that Ye Zi has observed a character who has long been characterized as an AI so carefully in the Dream City. At the same time, it is the first time that I have noticed that they are so similar to human beings, and their words and deeds are basically the same as ordinary people. There was even a moment when Ye Yuxuan subconsciously regarded Newman as his own kind - a poor person.
"Alright, put your head up." With Ye Yuxuan's encouragement, Newman gradually raised the head that had been hanging down due to shame, and there was a hint of ecstasy in his eyes: "So...... You agree ......"
"Well, we agreed to rescue your brother, and although I don't know if it will succeed, I think we will do everything we can." Ye Yuxuan knew the strength of his group, so he didn't dare to be too big, this was already the best answer he could give.
But Newman didn't care about the roundabout room reserved in this sentence, and the whole person immediately became excited: "Thank you so much!" Although Ye Zi couldn't give him a positive answer, it at least gave him hope.
Looking at Newman, who seemed to have suddenly regained his vitality, Ye Yuxuan couldn't help but wonder - how much difference is there between the so-called AI and humans? What is the fundamental difference between humans and artificial intelligence?
Su Mu had been watching all of this from the very beginning, and he didn't understand the point of Ye Zi and Yui doing this, after all, all the efforts and attempts they had made would all be reset in just a few minutes after they left this place.
However, since Ye Yuxuan had already made a decision, he didn't say anything more. Just silently watched from the sidelines, if it made the other two people feel better.
"By the way, there's something here, I think you need to take a look." Newman suddenly walked to a corner of the laboratory and waved his arm to beckon Ye Yuxuan and the others to come over.
"What's that?" Although Ye Yuxuan was puzzled, Newman probably wouldn't harm them, so he took the other two to come forward together.
I saw Newman dig out a few boxes from a pile of clutter in the corner, and then send them to Ye Yuxuan and the others: "I know that my request may be very difficult for you, and I have nothing that can help you, but these things that the wizard left here should be helpful to you." ”
Ye Yuxuan glanced at it hastily, it seemed that this was a temporary warehouse used by the deceased Arcane Master to store various materials, and all kinds of metal and non-metal materials were piled up, including ores and various herbs.
In the few iron-like crates that Newman had found were distinctively unusual—most of them were semi-finished products, and a few were even brand new.
This seems to be a temporary backlog of goods here, or rather, experiments for experimentation.
"These are ......," Su Mu casually picked up one of the most conspicuous items - a bright silver light alloy half-armor.
"Well, it looks like it's the so-called alchemy soft armor." Ye Yuxuan took over the conversation and picked up another piece of soft armor that looked exactly the same, "I just didn't expect there to be so many pieces." ”
That's right, if you just make a preconceived judgment based on Newman's previous description, you would basically think that as a flawed product and the work of the wizard, only one alchemical soft armor for testing should have been produced. But the actual situation is different, there is enough stock of a dozen or so people to arm them, and I wonder if it was prepared by the Arcane Master for the remaining wizard colleagues in this underground city.
In addition, there were all kinds of canes that looked like magic staff in the box, and after Ye Yuxuan conducted some tests and successfully released a small arc, the identity of these things that all the data exactly matched the records in the database was completely confirmed.
To be honest, when the arc of electricity was released from the tip of the staff just now, Ye Yuxuan himself was taken aback. When he came back to his senses, he was greeted by a sense of excitement that ordinary people would have, after all, how many people's dreams were to be able to release magic? Even if it's just in a dream.
In stark contrast to the excitement of Ye Zi and Su Mu, Yui Uesugi was standing alone in place, unmoved by the novelty of these things in front of him, and even seemed to have obvious resistance.
"Huh?" Ye Yuxuan, who calmed down a little, noticed Yui's abnormality, "Yui, what's wrong?" Why don't you come and check it out? ”
"Something made by a wizard......" Yui Ueki muttered quietly with her head bowed.
"What?" Since Yui didn't speak in the neural network just now, he didn't hear Yui's whisper just now.
"It's nothing, just don't bring those things."
"Why?" Ye Yuxuan was even more confused.
"I'm annoyed, I hate these wizard-made things, okay?" Yui suddenly burst into a rage for no apparent reason, and her tone was full of anxiety.
Ye Yuxuan frowned slightly when he heard this, he didn't know why Yui was reluctant to say it, but she must have her own reasons, so he didn't ask any more. But there was one thing that made him more concerned: "However, this is obviously the so-called item that can be used to balance the difficulty, are you sure you don't want to use it?" Is it really okay? ”
Yui turned her face away, so that Ye Yuxuan couldn't see her expression: "You said no, don't you think you are not strong enough?" Let's use some to make up for the gap, and I am fully confident that I can challenge the difficulty of the B grade. As for soft armor, I don't need it even more, I already have an exoskeleton to protect it. ”
Ye Zi looked at Yui who suddenly made an awkward fuss, closed his eyes and nodded, and opened his eyes after a while and said, "I understand, since you don't want it, then I won't force it." Give me and Su Mu a little time, and we'll be fine soon. ”
Yui tilted her head slightly, looked at Ye Yuxuan's back gradually moving away with her spare eyes, and was surprised by his self-indulgence towards herself: "Cut, it's just an incompetent captain......" After speaking, he silently turned his head and closed his eyes to recuperate.
