Chapter 1 Visitors from Heaven

Next Chapter

The line of dawn and dusk slowly receded, and the light illuminated the blue surface covered by patches of white clouds.

At sunrise, the scene is accustomed to the scene, in the far reaches of space, in the bleak void of a satellite, a gray-white, slender spaceship, quietly dormant in the boundless dark night, hiding from the unwarranted, perhaps from the surface of the planet.

Model 3320, curb weight of three million tons, more than a thousand meters long body like a giant tower, in the bow cabin, artificial gravity is temporarily closed, a light-colored loose clothes and pants, long hair flowing girl, holding the armrest to stabilize the figure, Zhan Ran's eyes blink from time to time, while packing luggage, while speaking, with a soft and beautiful voice commanded:

"Prepare to go, and the rest will be left to you, 'Midnight';

Then, I'd better finish reading the message before leaving, and I'll go down later...... I don't know how long it will take to connect again. - Well, how is the battle in the distance, which is what I am most concerned about now. ”

It seems to be talking to himself, but in fact, he is communicating with the AI (Artificial_Intelligence, artificial intelligence) of the 3320 battleship - midnight, with the woman's voice, the light and shadow on the cabin wall flashed, and the video and text description soon appeared on the huge screen, the dark tone, the brilliant and terrifying flash, as if it instantly cut through the background, and suddenly pierced the pupils, the girl with slightly open lips widened her eyes in surprise, and after a while, she relaxed and let out a sigh.

The girl is still calming down, not far from her, the diligent entourage robot is still working silently, the flexible arm shuttles flexibly, puts the required objects into the backpack one by one, and then stays with the large and small intelligent machines in the cabin, saying goodbye to the owner of the long journey.

"It seems...... The situation is not good.

Forget it, focus on your work first; Goodbye at midnight. ”

Ten minutes later, with an almost imperceptible tremor, the shuttle released by the Type 3320 battleship quietly flew out of the shadows and swept towards the planetary hemisphere with its back to the star.

……

The sight is as dark as thick ink.

I couldn't tell what time of day it was, and I looked around in a trance, surrounded by a dense gray haze.

Moving his hands and feet, and without knowing where he was, the young man shuddered, and he stumbled forward until the faint outline of the building appeared in his vision.

In his ears, as if something was whispering, he pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, and a damp and cold wind rushed in front of him.

Where is this?

How many times the scene has been repeated, I already know what awaits me in front of me, even if I am vaguely aware that in the dream, the young man still moves forward step by step without listening to the call; Leaving the room and walking through the corridor, the sound of "tick-tick" became clearer and clearer, the floor creaked, and thick cables snaked overhead, until the end of the corridor, opening a door, another rusty heavy iron door, the cold breath brushed his feet, he stood still, stunned and stared at the familiar scene in front of him.

Machinery, circuits, tangled existence, Fang Ran's head was buzzing, he wanted to forget something, but it was useless.

Electron...... Digit......

The cold wind was blowing, and a gust of cold made the young man shiver a few times, and he knew that this was clearly not normal.

In front of him, the huge and suffocating monster that almost filled the entire room was "dooping" non-stop, but the feeling was completely contrary to common sense, he did not feel the heat wave of the equipment, and the chill around him became stronger and stronger.

Integral...... Compute......

The sound, non-stop, converges into a noisy symphony, the power surge flows smoothly in all directions in the cable, the glow gradually rises, and the indicator light emits a little strange light; The clatter of the machinery became more and more harsh, and cold sweat broke out on Fang Ran's forehead, and he couldn't move in place, and he knew that he couldn't break free, unless he heard the sound again, the dull roar that seemed to come from hell—

Here they are......

They're back......

"Ahh......h Uh-a-ah......"

The cold all over his body, the headache suddenly hit, the young man was staggering at the gate, yes, he remembered, it was-

Electron...... Digital ...... Integral......

Electronic digital, integral calculation ...... Computer, E-N-I-A-C......

Ainiak!

- Who are they?

- Who the hell are they?!

His heart seemed to have been hit hard, panting like a dying fish, barely holding on, but still falling to the ground, his eyes widened, staring at ENIAC in the room who seemed to be exuding the breath of death, yes, he knew the answer better than anyone else, but he definitely didn't want to face it, even if it was just an illusion, even if-

However, the bell rang and broke everything.

The bell rang like thunder, the manic machine seemed to stop running all at once, the indicator light fluttered like candlelight, and the extremely oppressive cold dissipated suddenly.

In the huge room, he was the only one, a trembling young man, still trembling by the iron door, thinking, memories, everything in his mind kept churning, no matter how much he forced himself to forget, in the end, it was still like a big wave of sand.

Can't forget, there's no possibility, how can he forget all this?

“This_is_Alpha,this_is_Omega;

It's the beginning! This is the end.

……”

It's all over, it's over...... Is it ......

……

"Drip-drip-"

The alarm clock kept ringing, and the young man in the quilt woke up from a nightmare.

Sit up, press the alarm clock, raise your hand to wipe the cold sweat from your forehead, and then settle down, tilting your head to look at the monitor on the desk.

The words "Verification completed: stage two, passed" were a little blurry, he shook his head gently, the headache was unbearable, so he lazily lay down and slowed down for a while, and then slowly got up to fold the quilt.

It's Saturday, so it's okay that you don't have to go to class......

Last night I had a nightmare and no energy, early in the morning, Fang Ran appeared on campus, he walked aimlessly through the paths, passing by the students who got up early and read in the morning, and the old people who practiced in the morning, went to the cafeteria for breakfast, thought about it, and packed up his things to prepare to go to the laboratory, continue the undisturbed life of 996, or in other words, continue to hang up 10,000 brain cells a day, to fight with the endless code in the computer.

"Code farmer", this title was once disgusted by Fang Ran, and now, he has numbly accepted this position.

After all, after a coincidence or an unvirtuous ancestor peeked through "that incident", now, no matter what he does, he will no longer have any passion, and at the same time, there will be no resistance.

When he stepped into the school four years ago, Fang Ran, like countless students of Angsi Onsea_Institute_of_Technology en University, had lofty ambitions, and now looking back, it seems to be a dream; Unhurriedly walking to the door of the building, he was immersed in the question "When did you banish the ideal?" In the memory, the mobile phone suddenly screamed a few times.

Taking it out and looking at it, Fang Ran raised his eyebrows, who will this person be?

"Hey, hello.

- Are you ...... Lynn? ”
