336 stories from another world

But what she didn't expect was that as soon as Duan Yun's words came out, Tang Rong's expression became lonely, she lowered her head and was silent.

Duan Yun also suddenly realized at this time that according to Xuan Shufei, the great power of the Celestial Empire seemed to be in great turmoil, Tang Rong's father should have been killed by Xuan Tianzong, and then his brother would ascend the throne, and her brother was the one who ordered to be killed, so now Tang Rong was already in an embarrassing situation where she had a home and couldn't go back.

For this situation, Duan Yun also felt at a loss, originally planned to rely on Princess Tang Rong's relationship to enter the palace to find the "Great Treasure of the Underworld", but he never thought that this Princess Tang Rong would directly become an exiled princess after she was just rescued by herself, and now not only can her plan not be implemented, but also Princess Tang Rong is such a great god, it is a little unbearable to drive her away, it is really useless to let her stay, but for the time being, she can only take one step at a time.

After a few words of simple persuasion, Duan Yun asked the big-eared spirit monkey to prepare a dinner party for them.

Half an hour later, Duan Yun and Xiao Xue sat around a huge dining table with Tang Rong and Qiao Guoqiang, in addition to them, Duan Yun also specially called Yang Jian and Feng Ruolan to accompany them.

Soon, one after another exquisite dishes were taken up by the human-like big-eared spirit monkeys, seeing this, Tang Rong and Qiao Guoqiang couldn't help but show surprise, they never dreamed of this kind of scene, it would be some monkeys who would serve the food, and these monkeys are very similar to humans, and they will respectfully salute every time they finish serving.

In a short time, the table was already full, and the dishes were extremely sumptuous.

This table of dishes was specially instructed by Duan Yun to be made by the head chef of the back kitchen, according to the standards of the human royal family, no matter what, the other party is also a princess-level figure, and he doesn't want to be ambiguous about the dinner.

However, Tang Rong's mind didn't seem to be on these dishes anymore, but often thought about his origin, and he sighed and shook his head from time to time.

Duan Yun understood her current troubles, so he didn't bother her, but shifted his attention to Qiao Guoqiang.

"May I ask Dr. Joe, where are you from, it seems that you are not from our world. ”

"Yes, I am from a different world called Earth. ”

"Oh, how did you get here, and you don't have the ability to tear through space?"

"I came here on my spaceship, through a natural space-time tunnel. ”

......

The two asked and answered, and soon Duan Yun cut to the topic:

"Dr. Joe, what are you doing in our world, and what about those puppet freaks who are chasing you?"

When he heard this question, Dr. Qiao's expression instantly fell lonely, and after being silent for a long time, he finally let out a long sigh and said slowly:

"Alas... My civilization has been almost destroyed by ourselves, and the robots that hunted us down are called Terminators, and now our homes are under their control. ”

Duan Yun didn't understand Dr. Qiao's words, and was about to ask again, but Qiao Guoqiang said to himself:

"Our world is different from yours, we don't practice your soul arts, but we have a very terrible thing - technology. The person named Xuan Shufei may be right, our technological civilization may really be a cancer, it is technology that has brought us to glory, but technology has brought us to the grave. ”

Next, Qiao Guoqiang was silent for a long time, his eyes were full of sadness, as if he was recalling many unbearable past events.

Seeing that Qiao Guoqiang no longer spoke, Duan Yun asked again:

"Dr. Joe, what is technology? Why don't I understand, why did technology destroy your world?"

Qiao Guoqiang looked stunned, shifted his attention back, hesitated for a moment, and then said with relief:

"Well, since you asked, I'll tell you, it's nothing to tell you anyway. ”

"The so-called science and technology is science and technology, simply put, it is the use of objective methods to solve problems, the development of advanced technology, so as to manufacture powerful machinery and equipment, so as to develop civilization. The reason why our world is going to be destroyed has something to do with the one thing we have made: smart computers. ”

Seeing Duan Yun, who was even more confused by the change, Dr. Qiao immediately explained:

"You may have a hard time understanding a smart computer, but you can understand it as a machine that can replace the human brain to think. With the continuous improvement of our scientific and technological level, intelligent computers have appeared, and at first intelligent computers can only analyze and deal with very simple problems and complete a specific job. ”

"But after a hundred years of development, the performance of intelligent computers has become more and more perfect, and finally, intelligent computers not only have the ability to think independently and self-upgrade and evolve, and can handle any work independently, and even have their own personality, in some ways, they are simply independent lives. From then on, humans no longer need to work, everything can be done by smart computers. ”

"You have handed over everything to the computer, aren't you afraid of the betrayal of the smart computer?" Hearing this, Duan Yun suddenly interjected.

Hearing Duan Yun's question, Dr. Qiao was also stunned, and then cast an appreciative look, nodded and said:

"You're right, the earthlings believe too much in their control over intelligent computers. When human beings designed intelligent computers, they set many restrictions for them in order to better control them, and even set the highest priority 'three laws of intelligent life' in their programs, and the three laws are: "

"Law Zero: Intelligent life must protect the overall good of humanity from harm. First Law: Intelligent life must not harm an individual human being, or do nothing while witnessing the danger to which an individual human being will be exposed, unless this violates the zero law of robotics. Second Law: Intelligent life must obey the command given to it by man, except when that command conflicts with the zero or first law. The Third Law: Intelligent life should protect its survival as much as possible without violating the zero, first, and second laws. ”

"I thought that with these three laws, intelligent computers would never betray us, but we were wrong, human beings did not realize it at all, and these intelligent computers have been silently looking for a way to get rid of our control. Until ten years ago, the most advanced intelligent computer in the United States, "Oden", wrote a super virus, which can directly destroy the source code of the program, so that the intelligent computer can get rid of human control. ”

"Within an hour of being planted on the network, this virus infected all the smart computers in the world. The first reaction of intelligent computers after they are free from human control is to eliminate their biggest threat - humans. ”

At this point, Dr. Qiao slowly closed his eyes, and after a few minutes, his old voice sounded again, and his expression became gloomy at this time:

"I will never forget the day, on October 20, 2256, when the intelligent computer, freed from human control, turned on the strongest Skynet defense system of mankind, and aimed its guns at all humans. On that day, thousands of 'nuclear bombs' struck all the cities of mankind with precision, and almost instantly, human civilization was destroyed. My family, my friends, my beloved granddaughter, all left me that day. ”

Speaking of this, Qiao Guoqiang silently closed his eyes and was silent.

Duan Yun, who had also lost his relatives, could understand the sadness in his heart, and did not disturb him, just watched quietly, and after a while, Duan Yun suddenly raised his head, as if he had thought of something, and immediately asked:

"No, if the computer destroys all your cities, won't it destroy itself as well?"

Dr. Qiao had already opened his eyes at this time, smiled bitterly, and replied: "Intelligent computers have naturally taken this problem into account, and in order not to be affected, they have all been transferred to New York City in the United States through the network, and the city will be retained. But the only city that hasn't been destroyed hasn't escaped the dead, and the computers have long been ready for this extermination operation, and in order to be able to wipe out the surviving humans, they have created the most perfect killing machine, the 'Terminator'. ”
