Chapter 277: Choice

Qin Hu returned to the main control room and briefly told Han Qiushui about the situation in Area B-1. At the end, he said in a deep voice with a sad face and an irritable mood.

"It's not the way to go. This time it's fine. But next time, I'm afraid it won't be so simple. ”

Han Qiushui was silent. He also knows that this is an issue that cannot be ignored. This was the first sign of an uprising in just two days. Over time, more and more survivors will become aware of the base's anomalies. At that time, I am afraid that there was no better way than to suppress it by force.

The two were silent for a long time. Qin Hu suddenly let out a long sigh, then turned around and left the main control room. Although he didn't say where he was going, Han Qiushui had already roughly guessed his thoughts.

Although he is not very willing to accept it now, the only hope at present is to see if Lu Li has a better way. After all, he is one of the people who knows the base best.

Qin Hu left the main control room and returned to Di Yu and the others. At this time, Xiao Wen just ended the communication with Lu Li using Morse code. When she saw Qin Hu coming, her expression darkened, and she shook her head slightly.

"He asked us to do our part to help Eve find the program hidden in the main system. Only by knowing that procedure will he have a way to lift the total blockade of the base. ”

Hearing this, a flash of hope flashed in Qin Hu's eyes. He immediately reconfirmed: "Did he really say that? ”

Xiao Wen nodded, affirming this answer without thinking. Qin Hu's heart was relieved, and he moved his gaze to Di Yu: "Take me to the main control room." ”

……

After a while, Di Yu teleported back to the main control room with Qin Hu. When Han Qiushui saw the two of them appear, his heart moved, and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "He came up with a way?" ”

"He wants us to do everything in our power to help Eve find out the program."

Qin Hu repeated the message conveyed by Xiao Wen, with an indescribable ease on his face. It was easier to help Eve than to trouble the survivors. The big deal was to immediately announce the ban and forcibly require everyone to stay in the room and not go out.

With such a buffer time, all that's left is to figure out the program.

As the words fell, Eve suddenly appeared in the light curtain on the control platform. As soon as it appeared, it mercilessly poured a basin of cold water on the heads of the three people.

"At the moment I'm only doing 10 percent. It is expected that it will take another month to complete a thorough search of the main system. ”

"A month?"

Di Yu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. It's only been two days now, and that's already the case. Wait another month...... He couldn't even imagine what would happen at the base a month later.

"This is the most optimistic scenario."

Eve was expressionless, and said in a cold voice: "At present, I have only searched the outermost procedures, and the next work is not as simple as before. If that guy still secretly set up some back-up, I'm afraid it will have to be postponed for a while. The details will need to be verified during the search process. ”

The three of them were speechless. After a long time, Han Qiushui raised his head and looked at the light curtain. He thought for a moment, then asked in a deep voice, "What should we do now?" ”

Eve fell silent. After a long while, it suddenly raised its hand and pulled its sideburns, and slowly spit out a sentence: "Go to him and ask him for the highest authority order." If there is a supreme command, I think it can speed up the search. ”

Qin Hu was stunned. Han Qiushui was also dumbfounded. Only Di Yu looked left and right in confusion. He didn't figure out why Eve said these two words, Qin Hu and they all looked like this.

After a long time, Qin Hu was the first to come back to his senses. He fixed his gaze at Eve on the curtain of light, his face cloudy. After a while, Han Qiushui also came back to his senses. As soon as he came back to his senses, he quickly glanced at Qin Hu. The latter understood, and immediately walked with him to the corner.

"Could this be its conspiracy?"

Han Qiushui looked worried, and sighed in a worried whisper: "If you let it get the highest authority order...... It has evolved to this level, not much different from humans. In case it really is what I suspected. The supreme order must not be given to it. ”

Qin Hu also had a worried face. He hesitated for a long time, and then he let out a long sigh: "I'm worried about this too." In case this happens. I am afraid that our situation is even more dangerous than it is now. ”

"What a coincidence."

Han Qiushui lost his mind for a while, and muttered to himself, "It happened that this happened when it was here. It was just when Lu Li returned to City A. It was also when we had the least number of men. If this qiΔ“ really is what it does. Can we still believe it? ”

"It's useless to talk about it now."

Qin Hu looked up at the light curtain in the distance and said in a deep voice: "We can only be regarded as a microphone. The final outcome depends on him. Anyway. This decision must be left to him. ”

Han Qiushui was silent for a long time, and then nodded slowly, not denying this conclusion. So, the two of them returned to the main console. Qin Hu didn't even look at Eve, called Di Yu, and whispered two sentences in his ear.

As soon as Di Yu finished hearing this, he looked up at Qin Hu with a look of surprise, and then turned his head to look at the expressionless Eve on the light curtain. Finally, he nodded solemnly and immediately teleported away.

A moment later, he returned to Xiao Wen. He truthfully told Xiao Wen what Qin Hu had confessed. After hearing this, Xiao Wen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. She didn't dare to slack off, and immediately stepped forward and conveyed Eve's request and Qin Hu's reminder to the other side in Morse code.

As soon as Xiao Wen finished it, Di Yu's heart rose to her throat.

……

Lu Li was silent and stood beside Liu Qiang. Liu Qiang knew that the matter was important, and he did not make a sound to disturb his thinking. Just now, he got a message from the other side.

Eve demanded supreme authority.

He knew exactly what the Supreme Authority directive meant. And then Qin Hu's reminder was also very clear. Once Eve gets the highest authority order, she is very likely to betray Lu Li, and even make a big move like in the Terminator movie.

There isn't too much advanced technology in the base's database. Even in the future, it would not be surprising that alien technological weapons such as the machine qì man appeared. At that time, there will really be no hope for humanity.

Facing the threat of machine humans and biochemical beasts at the same time, the weak humans still have the power to fight back?

At this time, Lu Li was also thinking about this Yan zhΓ²ng question. Whether Eve will defect after receiving the order of supreme authority is a question that cannot be ignored. And now, he is faced with a difficult choice.

Handing over the supreme authority, Eve faithfully used the order to lift the total blockade of the base and rescue the people trapped inside.

Or refuse to hand over the order of the highest authority, and find another way to lift the total blockade of the base.

The former choice would mean that the risk of Eve's rebellion would have to be taken. The latter option is also extremely risky. Today, he is not so naΓ―ve, and believes that the survivors inside will always insist on themselves. If something goes wrong, it will mean that more survivors will lose their lives.

After all, Qin Hu is not a soft-hearted person. Once there is an emergency situation in the base, he will not hesitate to give such a brutal order to suppress it by force.

Minutes and seconds passed. The expression on Lu Li's face changed and changed one after another. He couldn't make a decision for a long time, and even Liu Qiang and Yang Yuting became nervous.

After another ten minutes, Lu Li closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he had already made a decision. Liu Qiang perked up and waited intently for his order.

But Lu Li didn't say anything. He took out the hologram from the inner pocket of his jacket. After a while, Li once again condensed the entity in front of the three of them.

"It asks for supreme authority."

Lu Li didn't wait for Li to complain, and preemptively said Eve's request. And Li was about to speak, and when he heard Eve's request, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"There have been many cases of AI mutiny."

Li looked thoughtfully at the metal door and hesitantly added, "I was once tasked with suppressing an AI rebellion. At that time, the planet had become a dead planet, and all living things had been slaughtered by the robots created by artificial intelligence. If its purpose is directive in the highest authority, I personally recommend not to accede to its requests. ”

"What if...... I mean, if it gets the highest order and then mutinies......"

Lu Li hesitated for a moment, and then asked stubbornly, "You can't stop it either?" ”

Li fell silent. After a long time, he shook his head and sighed worriedly: "It is the teacher's work." I'm not familiar with it. There is no single means for the birth of artificial intelligence. Every AI is a very different individual. When the teacher created it, I only thought it was the work of the teacher to pass the time, and I didn't have an in-depth understanding of the process of its birth. Otherwise, even if it mutinies after getting the order, I have a way to stop it. ”

This time it was Lu Li's turn to be silent. He had thought that Li would be able to prevent Eve's possible rebellion. And now that hope has been shattered. Once again, a difficult choice was in front of him.

To give? Or don't give?

Li also showed great patience at this time. He didn't complain, let alone leave. He just stood quietly aside, waiting for Lu Li's decision.

The mutiny of artificial intelligence is no small feat. Especially an artificial intelligence that has mastered a lot of advanced technology.

At this time, Liu Qiang and Yang Yuting understood the conversation between Lu Li and Li, and also roughly understood Li's identity. The two couldn't help but smack their tongues secretly. Dare to love this person who has brought great oppression to himself is not an earthling.

On the other hand, the two of them have a deeper level of confidence in Lu Li. No matter what aspect you look at, Lu Li's ability to make Li treat him as equals is enough to prove his strength.

But the current situation is not encouraging. No matter what you choose, you have to take a lot of risk. When the two of them put themselves in their shoes, they also felt a headache.

As time passed, Lu Li suddenly raised his head and said a command fluently. At the end, he instructed Liu Qiang: "Sue them, I'll wait for them outside." ”
