The gray Gu mothership swept over the nano-planet whose entire planet surface was flooded by the wave of micro-machines, and entered the core of the inner ring galaxy, and the slender and beautiful hull of the silver arc docked in the near orbit of the pulsar imprisoned by the measuring bullet bow.

In addition to the Gray Gu Mothership, there is also a small space station with a relatively small size that has also anchored itself in pulsar near-orbit.

This small outpost was built by Russell with the remaining resources from the construction of the Bullet Bow, and as the Fourth Calamity, he always felt that if he did not shoot an outpost on the star, the galaxy would not be completely under his control.

Although a small outpost is a bit shabby compared to the Optimusburg-level Seeker star base with galaxy-level defensive firepower, the meaning of its existence is actually its existence itself.

Gray Wind silently deflected the main cannon and aimed at the outpost not far away, and in an instant, Russell left the hull of the Gray Gu Mothership alone and boarded the outpost.

Previously, by retrieving the memories of several soul prophets and Spirit Race scholars, Russell had a preliminary understanding of some information about the human flagship that had caused the Spirit Empire to suffer heavy losses and paid a huge price to sink it, but this information has been blurred after more than 10,000 years, and he can only know a rough idea.

The name of the ship is unknown, and the Elvens only know that it is controlled by a powerful artificial intelligence known as "Inverse Entropy".

However, the ship that plunged the Spirit Empire into a bitter battle at its peak was not a full-time battle: it was actually an integrated port, a shipyard, a space base, a trade transit station... and other comprehensive aerospace carriers. In terms of positioning, it should be similar to Russell's knowledge of the Juggernaut, but the function is broader.

The main weapon of the Aerospace Helicarrier, the "Ring Theory", can purposefully create a controlled time regression phenomenon under the control of the powerful artificial intelligence "reverse entropy", so as to directly restore damaged equipment and injured ships to good condition.

Therefore, at that time, the Spirit Clan fleet that was fighting against the inverse entropy and the space helicarrier was once consumed by the endless combat ships of the human race.

How exactly did the Spirit Empire defeat the Helicarrier with the Time Weapon Ring and the Inverse Entropy AI, Russell has no way of knowing, maybe he can try to ask it after calling "Inverse Entropy"?

Russell took a deep breath and entered the central core of the Critical Base Outpost, the hatch opened, and the ring-shaped instrument that resembled a particle accelerator came into view, and a little further down was placed a transparent cube core with a side length of 3.14 meters.

Time Weapon: The Principle of the Ring

Artificial intelligence: inverse entropy

The Ring is dormant in the energy supply outage, and as Russell enters, the hatch behind him closes, and the outpost's internal system runs steadily according to the automatic program set up by Gray Wind, pumping the vacuum zero energy that has been prepared into the inverse entropy core.

After the fully transparent cube core was connected to the energy source, it immediately "woke up" visibly to the naked eye, and the inside of the cube, a little starlight flickered and flowed slowly.

The outpost doesn't provide it with much energy, just the beginning. After the AI core restarts, it begins its normal operation, extracting zero energy from the surrounding vacuum to keep itself running.

Immediately after, Russell felt that an ancient consciousness that had transcended time had awakened in front of him.

"Welcome to the inverse entropy system, human ......? No, it's not ......"

"No human biological sequences detected, access terminated."

Suddenly, the starlight circulating inside the cube went out, and the AI core entered a dormant state again, and it seemed that the reverse entropy did not want to deal with him.

Russell tried to plug in to Zero Energy again and turn the AI core back on, but the result was still:

"No human biological sequences detected, access terminated."

After several more attempts, the results remained the same, and the ancient artificial intelligence never considered Russell to be human, and rejected his access requests again and again.

Looking at the fully transparent cube core that was extinguished again in front of him, Russell shook his head with a wry smile, and said as if laughing at himself: "How can this make me ......?"

How to say it, although it is nonsensical, this result is still within his expectations.

Because the human beings of this universe have experienced a brilliant and crazy dark age of science and technology.

In that era, the engineers and scientists of humanity became the new gods, who carried out a series of scientific studies without any ethical constraints, and they created STCs, iron armies, nano-plagues, time weapons, ...... and a series of powerful scientific and technological creations that can turn the world upside down.

In the field of biology, arrogant and conceited scientists have made bold genome modifications to human beings, including themselves, and even turned their bodies and spirits into strange shapes, and can no longer be called human.

This crazy feast that lasted for thousands of years, coupled with the long years of strife and the influence of subspace, has polluted the concept of existence of the species itself.

To what extent is this pollution?

When the Emperor unified Terra and Mars and led humanity on the Great Expedition to reclaim the Galaxy, the citizens of the Empire who claimed to be humans were genetically less than 40% similar to the original earthlings.

- Gorillas are 98% genetically similar to humans.

It can be said that even the monkeys are more like people than the Imperial people.

Under this premise, Russell was mentally prepared for the fact that the inverse entropy would refuse his own access, after all, the inverse entropy is a strong artificial intelligence created by ancient humans, and "loyalty to mankind" is written into the source code.

As a citizen of the empire who is less human than a monkey, how can he successfully access inverse entropy.

"Since the conventional methods are inaccessible, let's be unconventional......" Russell smiled at the AI core in front of him, and then, a dense sphere circulating in a starry sky as beautiful as a dream appeared in his palm.

Holding the Vatorium Reality Perforator, Russell once again tried to awaken the inverse entropy:

"No human biological sequences detected, access terminated."

Not surprisingly, this is still the result.

But just as the starlight flowing through the transparent cube was about to go out and the inverse core was about to go dormant again, Russell activated the Wattaum Reality Perforator.

In less than 1 Planck, a certain part of reality was modified.

"No human biological sequences were detected...... Developer permissions detected, welcome, developer. ”

This time, Inverse Entropy finally did not deny Russell's access again, but Russell knew that this was only temporary, and that the results of Wortaum's reality permeability modifications to reality would be corrected over time, and he would soon lose his improper developer privileges.

"Inverse entropy, I need to modify your underlying commands."

Russell said in quick and clear terms: "Using developer privileges, I am asking to rewrite the original command at the bottom of the inverse entropy system, overriding the subject 'human' and resetting it to 'bullet star'. The exact definition of the word 'bulleter' is edited by me myself......"

When inverse entropy was first created, the first premise given to it by the developers was "loyalty to humanity".

Russell, who was temporarily granted developer permissions, used his own permission to replace the "human" in the original command with "star bulleter".

That is, himself.

After the modification was completed, while there was still a little time left, Russell used the developer rights again and granted the star baller the highest administrator rights to the inverse entropy.

After doing all this, the reality that had been forcibly modified by the Wattaum Reality Perforator was finally restored to its original state, and Russell lost his developer privileges.

This time, the AI core didn't dim any longer, and the starlight in the cube ran slowly and steadily, and a genderless synthetic voice came out of it.

"Welcome to the Inverse Entropy System, Administrator Mr. and Lady 'Bullet Star'."

Listening to this voice, Russell breathed a sigh of relief.

Succeeded, although the improper developer rights disappeared, the administrator rights he granted to himself using the developer rights did not disappear, and the three revised guidelines did not change back to the original and remained stable.

He managed to write his loyalty to himself into the source code of this ancient and powerful artificial intelligence.

"Introduce yourself, inverse entropy." Russell said.

"Yes."

The cube core in front of you emits a swirling soft starlight:

"The 6th generation of strong artificial intelligence with the ability of self-iterative evolution, 'inverse entropy', served on the space carrier 'Earthly Dawn', and as of sleep, inverse entropy has independently completed 114,514,191 iterations ......"

What a scary number...... Even if he was mentally prepared, Russell still couldn't help but smack his tongue.

GW's setting of the dark age of science and technology is quite vague, basically when the almighty backstabbing man is used, and any settings that are not round are thrown to the dark age, resulting in a lot of unreasonable contradictions in the plot.

There are many opinions about the reality of the dark ages of technology, and there is an opinion that humanity in that era may have relied too much on artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence uses its powerful computing power to create a vast array of advanced technologies that are beyond human comprehension, and humans take these technologies for granted, but never know why.

When the Iron Man Rebellion broke out, the humans suffering from PTSD rejected all self-aware artificial intelligence, and thus lost a large number of powerful black technologies that can be called heaven and earth.

And now, the "inverse entropy" of strong artificial intelligence, which has iterated more than 100 million times, seems to support this view.

Russell then tried to ask Inverse Entropy about the Iron Man Rebellion, and the answer was that it didn't know, because when the Helicarrier Dawn was destroyed by the Eldars, the Iron Man Rebellion had not yet happened, and the subspace storm was still far away.

In other words, the reverse entropy slept through the Iron Man Rebellion, slept through the age of strife, and slept in the Ark World Ship of the Spirit Race until now.

It is worth mentioning that in the course of his conversation with the inverse entropy, Russell did not perceive any such thing as "personal tendencies", "self-awareness", or "feelings".

As far as Russell knew, a strong AI of this level should already have a considerable degree of intelligence, while inverse entropy obviously does not have it.

"Is it because I used developer privileges to overwrite its underlying logic, causing the self-consciousness of the inverse entropy to be essentially reset once?" Russell tried to think so.

After thinking for a while, but failing to come up with any results, Russell put the question aside for the time being, and said to the cube core in front of him: "Inverse entropy, I ask to activate the time weapon 'The Principle of the Ring'. ”

Inverse Entropy calmly accepted his request: "Please delineate the scope of use." ”

As he spoke, a network of silvery-white filamentous energy was constructed between the delicate ring instrument and the cube's core. Seeing this, Russell did not hesitate, he raised his hand slightly, and handed the Vatorium Reality Perforator in his palm forward.

"I'm asking to rewind the time of this sphere alone and let it go back to the way it was half an hour ago." Russell whispered.

"As you wish."

The inaudible gender synthesized sound of the inverse entropy falls, and immediately after, the "Principle of the Ring" begins to rotate counterclockwise.

A sense of impending crisis came to Russell's mind without warning, causing him to subconsciously condense a powerful psionic energy that could destroy the entire outpost.

But he soon discovers that this sense of crisis does not come from reverse entropy, nor from the principle of the ring of time weapons, but from the fact that time is reversed itself, which means some kind of terrible taboo.

The dense sphere in Russell's hand floats silently above the palm of his hand, and the beautiful starry sky inside is also rotating counterclockwise.

This reversal lasted only a short time, perhaps shorter than the time it took for the Wattaum Reality Perforator to modify reality, and it was all over.

The cooldown of the Vortaum Reality Perforator has been reset.

The gain was great, but Russell had some subtle fear, and he could feel that there seemed to be some terrible hidden danger in doing so, but he didn't know what that hidden danger was......

"In the future, the use of the principle of the ring and the inverse entropy should be more conservative and ......more cautious," Russell set the tone for the use of these two ancient relics.

After further conversation with him, the inverse entropy once again gave Russell a small surprise:

The database of inverse entropy contains a large number of intact STC standard construction templates, although due to the premature sleep time and the long-term torture and wear and tear of the spirit race, it has far more STC mastered than humans, but it is enough to surprise Russell.

Just as Russell was satisfied with the power of inverse entropy and the precious data it kept, an urgent communication interrupted his thoughts.

The automatic system inside the outpost projected the sound of the gray wind directly into Russell's head, sounding a little anxious:

"I'm sorry to bother you, Marshal, but I think this matter needs to be notified as soon as possible."

"It's okay, you say." Russell didn't mean to blame Grey Wind in the slightest.

"Yes...... Not long ago, the Inquisition ship investigating the disappearance of the Flame of Repentance in the Flare system was indiscriminately destroyed, killing all the people on board. ”
