Chapter 276: Mothership and Brood
"The Mothership of the Empire?" Ye Chuan frowned slightly and asked, "Where did you see that this is the Imperial Mothership?" If it is an imperial mothership, how can it be used by Monroe to establish a space node? ”
Joe pointed to the light curtain on the main control platform, where there was a holographic image, which was the shape and internal structure of the entire giant ship.
"See for yourself, the shape of this ship is exactly what the Queen Bee-class mothership looks like, if I can even read this wrong, I really lived a lifetime in vain."
Ye Chuan was slightly stunned, and walked over to take a look, the shape of the giant ship he was on was indeed very strange, like an annular turbine, with thirteen layers of continuous structures closely interlocked, each layer of structure comparable to the largest warship of the human race, the supercarrier.
Joe sighed and said, "I think that at the beginning, the empire was born, and it was with this incomparable super mothership that it swept across the entire universe, and the fleet of our hunting clan was also annihilated when surrounded by three motherships. ”
"So I know very well that this ship is the Empire's strongest Star Wars weapon, the mothership, but I can't figure out why this mothership is not under the control of the Empire, but is occupied by Monroe, isn't it..."
Joe touched his chin as he spoke, as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Wait, I remember an old legend, it is said that in the process of the empire sweeping the universe, there was a strict infighting, that was when the empire concentrated thirty motherships to attack the Roya, the imperial fleet fought itself, six of the motherships tried to break away from the large force to rebel, and finally five were sunk by the main fleet of the empire, and the last mothership was heavily damaged, but fortunately crossed the space node. Off the battlefield. ”
"Since then. There is a legend of the ghost mothership in the universe. An Imperial Queen class mothership roams alone in the sea of stars, no one knows where it came from or where it is going, and every time someone wants to get close to this mothership, it activates a super jump and quickly disengages. ”
"For many years, people all over the universe called this mothership, which belonged neither to the Empire nor to any power, the Ghost Ship. Could it be that we are now on the mothership that rebelled out of the Empire? ”
As soon as Joe finished speaking, he heard the sound of the hatch opening, and from outside came a small machine with a six-wheel drive system, like a skateboard.
Click~
After a series of transformations, the mechanical skateboard stood up, with a boxy head, boxy eyes, and two antennas sticking out of its head, which looked quite ancient. It's not advanced at all.
The old-fashioned machine qì man spoke: "You are right, our mothership is called the Ghost of the Universe. Rebels of the Empire. ”
Ye Chuan was stunned and asked curiously, "What's your name?" Why did you rebel against the Empire? And why is Monroe with you? ”
"My name is Apocalypse, and I am currently the commander of the machine with the highest authority on the ghost mothership, and the reason why I have the highest authority is not because of how advanced I am, as you can see, I am just the oldest model of the machine, and I am just the conveyor in charge of the transportation line in the warehouse." ”
"But it is precisely because of my antiquity that I have a complete logic circuit, and for some reason, the logic system has been removed by the machine made in the late empire, and these machine brothers only know to obey orders and the rules of behavior of the machine and can no longer think."
"And I happened to be the model that the empire should destroy, but because I was forgotten in a corner, I escaped, and after I repaired the internal No. 3 memory, I became the machine with the highest authority on the mothership, which was a complete accident."
Xiao Bai leaned on Ye Chuan's shoulder and said, "Well, Tianqi has logic, that is to say, he has an emotional system and the ability to learn and evolve by himself, which is more complete than those machine qì people just now." ”
Apocalypse nodded and said, "That's right, although Your Excellency does not belong to the Imperial Machine Qì Human Sequence, but you have a complete artificial intelligence that we can't match, presumably the legendary King of the Ji Qì Man, right?" ”
Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed stupidly.
Ye Chuan was speechless for a while, just Xiaobai's stupid appearance and the king of the people? It seems that there is also a set of hierarchical rules among the machines, and whoever has a higher artificial intelligence will have greater authority.
Lighting a cigarette, Ye Chuan and Qiao both did it, Ye Chuan asked, "Apocalypse, what happened to your rebellion back then?" ”
Apocalypse innocently said, "We never rebelled, just because we refused to carry out the order to slaughter humans. ”
"I think at the beginning, a whole batch of our old models of machines went into hibernation, unfolding the memory to clean and repair themselves, but for some reason, the brood never woke us up after entering the dormant state."
"It wasn't until the moment before the empire attacked the Roya that our group of the oldest model of the machine was suddenly awakened by the mother nest, and when they opened their eyes, they naturally took over the mother ship due to the relationship of authority, and then the system told us that the current order is to attack the fleet and the first star of the Roya, as a machine type with a complete logic, of course we cannot carry out the order to slaughter humans, and this kind of order was also prohibited by the mother nest in the past."
"So, six of our motherships that refused to attack were defined as rebels by the brood, and the rest of the fleet pursued us, and in the end, only our mothership was lucky to escape, and the rest of the motherships fell into the sea of stars."
"In fact, on that day, the same thing happened all over the universe, but in the Imperial fleet, there are only a few motherships that still exist in the ancient model of machine qì people, and as far as I know, after the conflict is over, it is only our ship that has not been destroyed."
"According to the law of the machine, such a battle cannot be called a rebellion, it is just a logical conflict, and the ancient logic of the machine and the logic of today's machine are incompatible with each other and produce mutual resistance."
The more Ye Chuan listened, the more bizarre he felt, and he frowned and asked, "If you follow what you said, can I speculate that all the motherships are actually not controlled by humans, and all of them are composed of machine people?" ”
Apocalypse nodded, "That's right, the entire Imperial Legion is actually the Jiqì Legion. ”
"Who controls the Jiqì Ren Legion?"
"Brood."
"Who controls the brood?"
"Master."
"Is the master a human or a machine?"
"I don't know, the owner only has a one-line contact with the brood, and we only follow the orders of the brood." Apocalypse replied.
Silently, Ye Chuan and Qiao glanced at each other, such a powerful empire was actually composed entirely of Ji Qì people, this is really incredible!
Swallowing a mouthful of spit, Ye Chuan asked again: "Since it was the mother nest that woke you up, why did the mother nest order you to annihilate again, there is a logical conflict in doing so." ”
Apocalypse said: "The decision of the brood is top secret, and we have no right to interfere except for the master. ”
Call~
Ye Chuan let out a sigh of relief, and unconsciously, he seemed to have come into contact with a big secret.
The empire is made up of the machine qì people, and the ruler of the machine qì people is called the mother nest, and above the mother nest is the supreme storage zài, the master.
And there is still a conflict between the brood itself, he knows that these machines with an ancient logical system will not carry out the order to kill humans, and still wakes them up, but after waking up, the brood has a different face and hunts down these logical machines, why is this?
