Chapter 173: Error
The gaze returns to the solar system again, to the unremarkable planet Earth.
In Li Wenyuan's star map, this galaxy is the "solar system", and the only habitable star here is the "earth".
But in the more common name of the Milky Way, the solar system is called the "mechanical core", and the Earth and several planets around it are called the "guardianship centers".
Although Li Wenyuan has opened most of the borders, it is the only place that is permanently forbidden to enter.
In this case, the galactic civilizations have more or less speculated, and without exception, they feel that this is the core star field of the "guardian".
Their intelligence system simply can't penetrate such a place, and the "guardian" has always been a taciturn lost empire.
So until now, the situation in this galaxy has been the result of their speculation, completely unaware that there is only one habitable planet in this galaxy that looks unremarkable.
It has been a long time since he came to this universe, and Li Wenyuan has also seen a lot of "rare planets", and when he looked back at the earth, he found that the earth was really an ordinary planet.
Although it has traces of large-scale transformation, it has not actually reached the level of the "ideal city" where the entire surface of the planet is completely covered by the city.
It's not Gaia either, the lush vegetation is actually all synthetic plants, and there is no trace of animal life, and the whole planet is actually a dead planet of sorts.
At first, he was quite confused, but as he explored more and more, he more or less understood the situation.
The Earth exists as a "mother planet", and perhaps humans once had the idea of completely "renewing" it, but in the end it still retains the general appearance of the Earth.
It may be because there is a more suitable place to live, such as the annular world, or it may simply want to preserve the general "image" of the Earth as the home planet.
Perhaps they felt that they would not have time to return, interrupted the process of transformation, kept it in mind as a "faith" existence, and then resolutely walked away, leaving behind a "butler robot".
And in the treatment of this "mother star", human beings have also left a back hand to prevent it from being "defiled".
The "housekeeper robot", which is now the "guardianship matrix" Li Wenyuan, is the biggest backhand.
There may be many real functions of the "guardianship matrix", but protecting the safety of the earth must be one of its functions, otherwise the ontology would not be built on the earth.
As for the worse scenario, humanity, or perhaps the "guardian matrix" itself, has adopted the last resort of "planetary self-destruction".
There is indeed a special planetary bomb somewhere in the Earth's core, which is part of the "planetary self-destruction program", and its explosion is powerful enough to wipe out the entire solar system.
The memory of when he first came to this galaxy is Li Wenyuan's black history, and no one in the galaxy would never have thought that the "guardian" who was known as the "guardian of the galaxy" actually had a past that was almost demolished by a group of pirates.
Maybe Li Wenyuan would be dozens of minutes late at that time, and what was waiting for him was an exploding earth and fragments of the "guardianship matrix" that were not even space junk.
At this moment, Li Wenyuan, who turned his energy back to the earth again, also began to think about his "initial" experience in this universe.
“…… So, what exactly is 'I'? ”
Thinking so, he controlled the synth and came to the large ball of light in the body of his "guardianship matrix".
At first, he thought that he was just a "traverser", just like one of them, just a "background background", and maybe there would never be a day to fill this hole in the future.
But after seeing all kinds of "black technology" in this universe, he felt that he might not be a "traverser", but an "unlucky guy hit by a meteorite" who "made up".
Are those pre-time memories real? Under the consciousness of data, it is not difficult to add some unwarranted memories that are like personal experience.
Could he just be a simulated personality of the "guardianship matrix"? Are those memories nothing more than a means to keep one's personality stable?
He seldom gave it a deep thought, as he felt that as time passed and the secret was revealed, he would gradually learn everything.
Even if he really was just a mock-up, he wouldn't feel much.
As he once thought: Is it still himself who comes back from the dead? Can memory determine a person's soul? Is Digitizing Consciousness Equivalent to Suicide?
And he chose to believe in himself, in his current experience. Maybe the memories of the past will be made up, but the current experience is his own experience.
Is it not that the matter of crossing over is not very important, why should you care about the ordinary past? Let's live a magnificent moment.
All he thinks about now is why he became a "guardian matrix".
“…… It's hard to understand, absolutely rational intelligent thinking should be more suitable for 'guardianship' of this galaxy, right, what is the purpose of my existence? ”
The controlled synth moved away from the large ball of light of the "guardian matrix" and continued to fly towards its next destination.
That's where the "Core Database" is located, the last complex on Earth that hasn't been activated.
He had a hunch that this would be a time of separation, and perhaps after today, he would take another path.
The distance of thousands of kilometers was very short at the flight speed of dozens of times the speed of sound of the synth, and after a while, the quaint complex appeared in front of the synth.
Like other buildings on Earth, despite its name, the Core Database is not an individual building.
In fact, this "core database" occupies a much smaller area than Li Wenyuan's own "general database", but there is an untold amount of difference in their energy requirements.
A large number of Dyson balls have made Li Wenyuan's current energy output blow up every day, but it has also met the requirements of starting the "core database".
The power lines here have long been repaired, and the energy from the Dyson sphere is running on the planet all the time, and now only the last step of the start-up is awaited.
The synth arrived here with Zelo gas, just as he had when he first activated the "Level 4 Singularity", and Zelo was needed here as a final activation.
Everything seems to be back to the beginning, with the "Level 4 Singularity" bringing him the initial help, and the last building on Earth to be activated, will bring him the last help.
Gases are filling, the noise of a large amount of energy transmission is also being heard from all over the earth, and huge amounts of energy are pouring into the "core database".
But Li Wenyuan found at this time that not all of those energies poured into the "core database", and this building actually had an "energy threshold" at this time, preventing too much energy from entering and bursting it.
“…… Sure enough, the 'core database' really needs only a small amount of energy, and most of the rest goes back to capacitors. ”
This matter did not exceed Li Wenyuan's expectations, because for such a long time, he had already checked the "core database" inside and out.
The building doesn't have a lot of energy supply network, and it can't transfer that astronomical amount of energy; And the interior of the building does not have a container large enough to carry a lot of energy.
In the early years, he could not understand this at all, because according to the level of infrastructure construction of the "core database", it was possible to maintain the energy supply with only one "four-level singularity".
However, the notes on the complex clearly state that an incredible amount of energy is required, and there is also a section to check the energy output during its activation.
To be on the safe side, he didn't rush to deliver energy.
And after a long galactic journey, he gradually guessed the reason why the "core database" needed to set such a high threshold for startup.
Perhaps the "core database" itself does not require so much energy, but the secret behind it needs to be prepared in advance.
The old buildings have been brought back to life by the energy flow, and the old metal structures seem to shine at this time.
The earth is spinning, and the sun is slowly rising from the horizon for a new day.
The last signal to be connected here finally returned to Li Wenyuan's arms again.
But he was silently looking at the familiar transcript, and he didn't seem very happy at this time, because he knew that it was not yet time for the results.
【…… The core database is back up and running, and the connection to the core database ......]
Time passes by minute by second, and the "connection" is always in a state of "waiting".
The process of imagining the immediate succession and then knowing the chain of truths did not begin, but the ominous premonition grew heavier and heavier.
He thinks that perhaps the first secret to be revealed will be why the "core database" needs so much energy.
Eventually, the "Waiting" blue progress bar got stuck in the middle of the lap after lap.
Everything seems to be calm again, as if the "core database" has suddenly crashed.
But Li Wenyuan held his breath that didn't exist, and those sub-consciousnesses that roamed the whole galaxy with the help of scientific research spaceships also returned to the earth at this time.
All the scientific research ships have entered the mode of automatic navigation, and they look the same as before, but if this goes on for a long time, it will not be long before the galactic civilization will find that the spaceship of the "guardian" seems to have lost its "spirituality".
But these things are not the most important, but the "core database" that is being launched.
The string of characters displayed in the virtual world suddenly changed, and the seemingly regular text quickly turned into garbled characters.
The blue space, which remained stable, seemed to change to a flickering red under the touch of something.
This scene is very familiar, just like when Li Wenyuan first came here, and a large number of bug reports have accumulated throughout the virtual world.
He didn't know how long it had been since he had experienced something like this, and the other civilizations in the galaxy had not yet been able to make him have an "error report".
However, Li Wenyuan's consciousness did not fluctuate in any way, he just watched more and more error reports, and then grasped the main point.

【……】
A large number of erroneous reports, as well as inexplicable combat orders, suddenly spread to all the intelligence under the control of Li Wenyuan, or the "guardian matrix".
The mechanical intelligence showed their disadvantage at this moment, and those warships didn't think about why the "guardianship matrix" that had been so good before suddenly went crazy and wanted to destroy the entire galaxy, and even destroy himself.
They were just faithfully carrying out the message sent by the "Guardian Matrix", which was basically the "Sky Veil Battleship" parked near Earth, and also aimed its "subspace trap" at the entire solar system.
The warships docked at various space bases also began to start their jump engines, some of them were flying to unknown galaxies that Li Wenyuan didn't even know, and some were preparing to fly to the home planets of other galactic civilizations.
The "riot" that resulted from this connection to the "core database" was even more terrifying than what he had to deal with when he first came here.
After all, at that time, he was poor and white, and even if he wanted to destroy the galaxy, he "had more than enough heart but not enough strength", but now it is different, the "guardian" who has been carefully operated by him for many years has long had the power to destroy the galaxy.
Everything seems to have been predestined for a long time, just like the speculation of some civilizations in the galaxy who are worried about the changes in the "guardians", perhaps the "guardians" who have protected the galaxy twice will become the destroyers of the galaxy one day in the future.
The mechanical intelligence from the ancients may have gradually corrupted over a long period of time, and those two "guardians" are their final glory.
The accumulation of errors will culminate one day until the entire "mechanical intelligence" collapses completely, causing a terrifying crisis capable of destroying the galaxy.
This may be true, but will everything really end up in the same way as the cycle of time?
Looking at the string of errors and the "combat instructions" that were being refreshed all the time, Li Wenyuan did not appear to be in any panic.
He just handled a series of mistakes with ease, as usual.
