Chapter 22: Cyborgs: Uh, the plot doesn't seem to have anything to do with us?
An evacuation alarm is issued, and the androids who are not good at fighting and the mechanical lifeforms that have been infested by the pond fish evacuate to the ruins to the south.
Wear the Zero with the high-power external awakening armor and the X with the external combination armor that can quickly change accessories for different needs.
Some of the maids flew the flying devices of the Leaf Force, hovering the sky to keep watch, and some of them were armed with energy weapons to escort Lyle in protective armor.
- This is the reaction of everyone after learning that Adam and other mechanical life forms have been embodied in evolution.
"This is really grandiose~ It's completely different from the previous friendly conversation~" Adam's gaze passed over Zero, X, and the maids, and fell on Lyle, whose face was completely obscured by the armor.
"This is the difference between online dating and offline base, just get used to it." Lyle spread his hands and said helplessly, "One of you has a criminal record, the second can teleport, the third can learn, and the fourth has a newcomer, for the sake of my own life, it is not too much to wait for it." ”
This is still due to the perception of N2's long-term surveillance, if there is no knife hanging over the head, it is difficult to say whether it will make a super robot, at least all members of the entire maid team will move closer to the strength of Zero and X.
"It was my negligence." The three years of civil war had not imbued Adam with a sense of bravery, and he still looked like the kind and well-mannered mad scholar, and saluted contrivedly, "Mr. Lyle's ideas and insights are more worthy of my exploration than ordinary organ combinations and genetic sequences, and I have given up on that plan since two years ago." ”
In other words, for at least a little over a year, Adam was going to vivisect Lyle.
"I'll just take that as good news." Regardless of whether Adam's intentions have changed or not, Lyle's response will not change, "So, what is the purpose of this sudden visit, do you want to convince us to form an alliance?" ”
Because of the absolute dominance of mechanical life forms on the earth, and the limited range of activities of androids, Lyle does not know what the specific battle situation is, but he does know that mechanical life forms are fighting a civil war around the theme of [Race Evolution], ordinary mechanical life forms encircle and suppress evolutionary forms, and evolved bodies increase companions by slaughtering ordinary mechanical life forms.
This was supposed to be a good time to climb the technology while watching the show, but the monitoring of N2 was not suspended, and Lyle could only continue to develop the pilot city and take the route of peaceful coexistence.
"If there is any time when you have the possibility of agreeing, I will definitely bring it up." Adam and his party had peeked into the city from afar before they appeared, knowing that it was only in this area that ordinary mechanical lifeforms and cyborgs had reached a way of life. If they really want to take sides, the android camp will 100% choose the normal mechanical lifeforms that are currently more friendly," ...... The only one I want to invite is you, Mr. Lyle. ”
"I refuse." This is a question that does not need to be considered at all.
It is impossible for Lyle to voluntarily abandon the race he created and run to become Adam's younger brother, but if he can't help himself, Lyle probably won't be so strong as to commit suicide.
(Buzz!) Zero, who thinks Adam has sent a declaration of war, draws his lightspeed sword.
"Don't be too sensitive." Adam stretched out his palm to Zero, indicating that he was not hostile for the time being, he really didn't expect Lyle to agree, but he didn't intend to rob people by force, "I don't need Mr. Lyle to leave the city, I just want to get long-term advice." ”
Lyle was surprised: "Suggestion? ”
"For three years Eve and I tried to become the origin of a new race, and it was very successful...... No, it should be said that it was more successful than expected. Adam hugged his body tightly and writhed in intoxication, "From the birth of the Evolved, I have learned [love]; From the death of the evolutionary, I realized hate; Then I finally realized that I didn't know when it started, and it had become very complicated and unreasonable. ”
"Heh......" It was only then that Lyle began to believe that Adam had no ill will towards him.
Because Lyell is no longer an 'irreplaceable object of study'.
Because Adam is no longer a scholar who 'focuses on human studies'.
Adam let go of his hands, detached himself from his intoxicated state, and said with rare seriousness: "One day a year ago, Eve was seriously wounded in battle, and I couldn't help but have the idea that I could not let any of the evolutionaries die. ”
There were many evolutions behind him that Lyle had never seen before, but that wasn't all the evolutions that were born in the last three years, and most of them died in the civil war. Presumably due to involuntary evolution, the newborn evolutionary beings were far inferior to Adam and Eve in terms of ability.
"No one can be a long-range tactical strategist." Lyle said in a deep voice.
"I knew that all I needed was advice that had nothing to do with winning or losing inwardly." Adam turned back to the new evolutionaries who were looking at him with admiration, "I have too little information on how to treat my children, how to make everyone in the tribe happy, and how to unite a group of creatures into a real race. ”
And that's what Lyle is good at, as evidenced by this pilot city that has reached the level of a small country town a thousand years ago.
"No problem." Lyle disarmed his head and smiled.
Eve was stunned and said, "Did you agree?" ”
"I want the world to be a better place, without compromising my own interests, that's all." Lyle looked up, but instead of looking at the A2 in the sky piloting the flying device facing him, "Excuse me, can I do this?" ”
“???” Everyone present looked confused.
But this time, no one will be worried about Lyle's mental condition anymore.
(…… OK...... Because N2, who is a black long straight girl in a red dress, decided to show up.
"Who!?" Adam and Eve covered their heads and just looked at N2's brain with their eyes and alarmed, "Who the hell are you!?" ”
(You can call me 'N2'...... A network consciousness aggregate of all mechanical lifeforms...... N2 replied in a harsh female electronic voice.
"Net, network consciousness aggregate?!" Adam's eyes widened.
"For mechanical lifeforms, it can be described as a god-like existence." Despite being able to combine the power of mechanical lifeforms to perform some incredible actions, N2 does not possess the power of its own, and "I have been watched by Your Excellency for a long time, and I am about to become mentally ill. ”
(Human, your original goal has long been accomplished...... What are your goals now...... Ignoring the evolutions who were in a hostile relationship with her, N2 asked Lyle.
"My goal is very simple, to leave a living space for artificial people who are not angry." After a slight pause, he said helplessly, "Judging from the current situation, I need you to nod and agree." ”
(………… N2 didn't reply, but asked, (What advice do you have for 'my' future?) )
