Chapter 223: The Divine Emperor's Power Reappears, Rewriting the Heavenly Gate AI (Subscription Requested)
Bai Qi looked at the place where the AI projection disappeared, and the projector no longer received the transmitted data.
The other party cut off contact.
His gaze became solemn.
Things don't seem to be good!!
Nantianmen's hosting AI is clearly out of order!
This is not often the case during the Galactic Expedition.
After the intelligent machine crisis, the human alliance has strict protection and control over AI.
In the subspace channel to the earth, such an important gateway to the hosted AI, Bai Qi does not believe that the Human Alliance will not do security measures.
Obviously, something happened that he didn't understand.
At the end of the Human Alliance, there were many forces stirring up trouble in it.
It is very likely that some force has broken the AI's protection program.
Rapid sirens sounded, and red lights flashed all over the ship.
"Enemy attack." The technical officer in charge of detecting the array shouted.
Bai Qi walked quickly to the observation window and looked out into the void.
I saw that the originally calm platform was already shining at this time, and in just a few breaths, I saw a surging energy arc emitting from the tall tower standing near the platform, forming an overwhelming sea of electricity shining with bright light.
Brilliant light instantly reflected the cold and dark expanse of space.
They rushed towards the War and Peace.
When it comes into contact with the shield, it bursts into a strong flash.
The War and Mir trembled, trembling from the attack.
The shield rippled and rippled from the intense bombardment.
The shield generator emits a dull, inaudible popping sound from the attack.
Sharp alarms are everywhere.
Countless artillery fires formed a huge web of burning and cutting in the void.
"We couldn't get any closer!! The fire will tear us apart. β
A technical officer shouted over the communicator, full of horror.
"Stay where you are, distribute the energy to the shield." The current captain of the USS War and Peace
Bai Qi looked out of the observation window and saw the surging firepower, his brows furrowed, and his eyes became solemn.
War and Hope is no longer able to move on, and if it continues, there is a high probability that the ship will not return.
Correa's voice rang out at this moment.
I just received the AI information and passed it on to the main fleet.
At this time, the fleet has opened a distance of tens of millions of kilometers from the giant wall, although it is still very close, but the danger is not great.
If you give up going to Earth, the Heavenly Gate that has not yet been activated will not be able to keep the fleet.
"That AI has obvious traces of viral infection." Correa said on the other end of the spectrum.
"I can see it."
Void cannon fire and spears of light shone in the white eyes.
The activated turret instantly unleashed a terrifying spear of light, surging as if the void was about to be ignited.
That AI is already going crazy.
They had already shown the identity information obtained from the dungeon database, but it still attacked.
If this behavior is during the Human Alliance, it can already be included in the ranks of the renegade AI.
"The Celestial Gate Defense System is being activated, but only at the entrance, and the rest of the area remains silent. Technicians speculated that it might be because the protection mechanism was activated. β
"Protection mechanism?"
"In the aftermath of the Robotics Rebellion crisis, all of the Heavenly Gate defense systems have been implanted with the highest privilege program, Humanity Supremacy. This program requires AI to treat human interests and security as an unshakable zeroth law, and if necessary, even require them to self-destruct to guarantee this law, which is the protection mechanism. The hosting AI of the South Heavenly Gate is still bound by this mechanism, it cannot activate the other defense systems of the Heavenly Gate, only a part of the entrance. β
"Is there a solution??"
"Yes, the problem is that we all need to obtain the highest authority of the Heavenly Gate Giant Structure."
"What do you want to do first?"
"Someone has to go into the core control room of Tianmen Giant and use a rewriter to overwrite the underlying code of the rewritten AI to solve this crisis. The code has been sorted out by the technicians and is being sent to War and Peace, you just have to go into the core control room, plug the rewriter into the console, and it will work automatically. β
Bai Qi listened to Correa's solution.
There are not many changes from the original plan, they all have to get the highest permission, and they all need to enter the core control room.
"I see." Bai Qi nodded, and the projection screen on the side also popped up the progress of receiving the code, and the two technicians wrote the code into the rewriter.
The rewriter is cylindrical, about the thickness of an ordinary person's fist, about 20 centimeters long, and the surface is very smooth and shiny.
At the end of it is a tentacle-like data probe.
As long as it is close to the position of the interface, it will automatically find a position to insert.
Bai Qi glanced at the work progress of the two technicians, and then looked at Smond beside him, "Get ready, we will carry out a surprise mission and rewrite the AI before the Tianmen Hosting AI can control and activate the fire defense in other areas." β
Smond nodded, and turned and walked out, the Legionnaires assembled aboard the War and Peace.
It's a task that only they can accomplish.
Later, Bai Qi looked at the captain of the USS War and Peace, whose personal database appeared about the other party's name and life deeds.
"Adiface. Maxer. Bai Qi called out the captain's name, who looked at him from the command throne with a puzzled look.
"Are you loyal to the God Emperor?" Bai Qi and the captain looked at each other, and there was not much change in expression on their faces.
This sentence made the poor captain realize something.
The slightly obese body trembled slightly at the impending fate.
"I will give my life for Him, Legionnaire." Adiface. Maxher clenched his right hand into a fist and placed it in the position of his heart.
Bai Qi nodded, he clicked on a data screen, which contained scan data about the Tianmen platform, "The platform can't teleport, and the enemy's artillery fire is too dense, we need to get close enough to the platform to land, do you understand!" β
"Yes, Legion Commander, I understand." Adiface nodded, and he gave a new order to the communicator next to him, "All escort fighters take off and attract firepower for the battleship." Except for the personnel necessary to maintain the battleship, the rest of the personnel can board the transport ship and leave, and you will have five minutes to protect you. β
"Your children will be proud of you." Bai Qi didn't look at the poor captain again, but looked at the artillery fire outside.
For such a decision, Bai Qi did not have any sadness or guilt.
The lives of all soldiers are only currency in the palm of His Majesty's hands, and when they die depends on when they are most valuable.
And now, they are the most valuable.
If the Second Expeditionary Force wants to go to Earth, the Gate of Heaven must be taken.
A large number of warplanes flew out from the belly of the ship, their engines spewing dazzling light.
The powerful thrust instantly sent them over the vast void and rushed towards the main control platform with dense artillery fire.
The War and Mir suffered a much smaller firepower in an instant, and at the command of Adiface, its engine worked again and flew towards the platform.
Soon, it crossed the line of being able to return safely.
Captured by the gravity of the city walls, crash into the platform at breakneck speed.
[Alert, expected to meet the impact in three minutes]
[Alert, expected to meet the impact in three minutes]
Piercing sirens sounded.
The red light is flickering.
The mechanical spirits lamented their imminent fate.
Adiface sat in the command seat, his face filled with regret and pain.
He had commanded the War and Peace for a long time, and had formed a strong bond with the ship's mechanical spirits.
In his heart, this battleship that accompanied the growth of the empire was already a very important part of his life.
It's a pity that its fate has been decided, and it will be sacrificed today.
He soothed the mechanical spirit, embraced it with his soul and mind, and told it nothing to fear.
When death comes, the Emperor will embrace them in his arms, and they will sleep in the holy kingdom of heaven for eternity.
"We have been completely captured by the gravitational pull of the walls." One technician shouted, "According to the calculations, we have not been able to escape." β
"Turn off the engines, the battleship no longer needs power, putting all its energy on the shield." Adiface gave a new order to the staff who were still holding their posts next to him.
The roar of the engines died down, and the shrill sirens were turned off by Adiface.
Those voices don't mean anything anymore.
There will be no more emergency measures, for the ship's owners themselves will die.
An indescribable silence descended on the ship, like the feeling of a dead man in his dying moments.
"It's almost time, Legion, Captain, you need to be ready for the onslaught."
Adiface looked at Bai Qi.
His meaning was obvious, it was time for Bai Qi to go.
"May the God-Emperor protect you."
Bai Qi greeted Adifas and the rest of the bridge crew with the high imperial courtesy, then turned and left the bridge to meet up with his battle brothers.
Adiface sat on his commanding throne, stroking the back of his chair and enjoying the final moments of connection with the mechanical spirit.
The rest of the staff also breathed a sigh of relief.
Their mission ends today.
The battleship withstood artillery fire and ran over the platform.
The shield's glow was extinguished by the overload, but War and Mir still dragged its broken body past the platform's artillery defenses.
The fighters of the Second Legion did not wait for the battleship to crash, and when it got close enough, they jumped off the battleship.
Let the battleship crash into the platforms and walls.
Explosions continued aboard the War and Peace, and a deafening noise reached the bridge.
After Adiface and many of the bridge crew sent their last words, they calmly waited for death.
It was too late for rescue, and they had no intention of abandoning the ship and leaving.
The wailing of the mechanical spirit made each of them feel like a knife, it had served humanity so diligently, and now they wanted it to die.
But there's no way around it.
The defensive firepower of the Tianmen Platform was too ferocious, and letting the legionnaires board the raid boat to go to space was to let them go to death.
There is an anti-teleportation mechanism set up on it, and there is no other way to approach the platform than this method.
The War and Mir unleashed a dying scream of horror in torn metal, and the incessant explosions of fuel tanks and ammunition depots climbed to a climax like a choir performance.
It crashed into the platform, its massive body disintegrating in the air, turning into countless splinters and smashing into the platform, smashing the magnificent metal structures with the force of its impact, plowing a path of burning and ruins.
Before all this happened, Bai Qi and the others had already left the battleship.
Pulled by the gravitational pull of the city walls, they fell freely, swooping down on the platform like birds with folded wings.
Under the cover of the numerous wreckage that formed after the disintegration of the battleship, their airborne landing was not detected.
The AI's scanning system has consistently identified them as broken wreckage.
It wasn't until they got close enough that they detected their health fluctuations and were considered enemies.
The AI locked onto them, and the defensive artillery reversed course to intercept them.
Dense artillery fire hit, and several red runes appeared on the white helmet display.
Each red rune represents a battle brother being hit.
Even if he was wearing power armor, it would be useless in the face of such ferocious artillery fire, and it would disintegrate in the air in an instant.
This is a dangerous task, and it is not only a test of combat ability, but also luck.
When it was about to land, the thrusters and force field regulators behind the power armor came into play.
They slowed down the landing speed and adjusted the landing posture of Bai Qi and the others.
Bai Qi landed on the smooth and neat platform, and Smond and the others also fell.
The position they chose was good, right in the dead end of the anti-aircraft artillery.
But the battle is not over, or rather it has just begun.
Some figures that have been molded into human form emerge from their field of vision.
They are silvery-white, with slender limbs and expressionless faces, with only a pair of deep eye sockets dotted with red speckled eyes.
Smart Machine!!
The first time Bai Qi saw them, this term came to mind.
The ancient creation of the ancestors of mankind, the terrifying creation that once terrified countless races in the starry sky.
They are numerous and fearless to death, wielding energy weapons that emit blue light.
These sapient machines often also have energy shields installed on their bodies.
They formed a phalanx and shot as they approached.
At this moment, Bai Qi realized the despair of the enemies of the former Human Alliance.
The number of intelligent machines is endless, and it is difficult to destroy.
They move forward like a tidal wave, sweeping through everything around them.
If it weren't for the impact of War and the Mir, which destroyed those buildings, I'm afraid the scale of these guys would be even more staggering.
But those buildings are also being repaired by nanoworms at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Not much time was left for the Second Corps.
They had to get out of this place and get to the control room as soon as possible.
Once trapped, no matter how strong they are, they will be trapped alive.
The map emerges in a white helmet, outlining the structure and route of the entire platform.
"Go from that side."
Bai Qi took Smond and the others to shoot while retreating.
Between the sprawling buildings are streets and alleys, designed for the passage of sapient machines and humans.
They kept evacuating along these streets and alleys,
The Robotics followed them closely, trying to use the frantic firepower to keep them behind.
In addition to the walking robots, there are also robots with their upper bodies mounted on large anti-gravity units, buzzing in the air several meters above the ground, with scopes mounted on their faces and artillery on their arms.
There are also intelligent machines that have been shaped into spiders, and when they move, they click and click, and in addition to the artillery mounted on their backs, their sharp feet and limbs are also sharp weapons for killing.
Even power armor can't withstand the spikes of these limbs.
In order to guarantee the speed of action, there were constantly people left behind, providing cover for the advance of other fighting brothers.
Bai Qi did not pay attention to those who voluntarily stayed and chose to sacrifice.
He slashed at the machines with all his might, destroying them all.
Wherever he walked, he left behind a large wreck of the Wisdom Machine.
This operation was far more difficult than many previous operations, and even in the face of the Sith Empire's samurai regiments, the Second Legion's surprise attack was not as heavy as it was today.
The number of intelligent machines is huge, the combat effectiveness is high, and they don't care about casualties at all.
They are a nightmare on the battlefield.
If there were no intelligent machine crisis, the Galactic Empire would definitely be able to rise quickly with these creations.
The carat parasites, the races of the Star Covenant who dare to rebel against humans, are afraid that they will also be frightened out of the galaxy overnight.
It's just a pity that there are no assumptions in this world.
The outbreak of the intellectual crisis has made mankind understand that fate can only be fought for by itself.
Even if it is your own creation, you can't rely on it too much.
With the help of heavy sacrifices and the guidance of the map, Bai Qi and the others finally arrived at the building where the main control core was located.
Several sculptures from the Human Alliance period still stand at the entrance to the building.
The pillars and porches were shot at by the blue energy beams of the Robots, and exploded, creating a large number of fragments.
Smond led the men to guard the entrance, and Bai Qi and a few guards entered the building with the rewriter.
The construction style of the main control core is very much in line with the human imagination of technology, and the whole body is bright and shining.
Shiny metal plates with shiny electromagnetic wires etched everywhere can be seen.
When they are illuminated, they emit a strange reflection.
Huge metal columns stood inside the building, activated and shimmering.
Bai Qi chose to ignore these things.
His goal was clear: the main console.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The dull voice kept ringing.
Ten silver-white robots fell from the ceiling, their bodies smooth and shiny, with no blemish in sight.
The arm automatically transforms into spikes when it hits the ground.
Obviously, they are programs used to protect the main console.
There aren't many words, and talking to the machine is a pointless thing.
They are only subordinate to procedures and do not have much human emotion.
Taunts, teasing, anger mean nothing to them.
There is no choice but to raise your arms and fight.
Bai Qi soon discovers the strangeness of these robots, they cannot be killed, even if they are chopped into a few knots, they will melt into liquid, and they will recover again and join the battle.
There is no point in continuing to fight these liquid robots, they will only be consumed alive.
"You block it."
Bai Qi looked at several of the guards.
"Don't worry." Ramsey, one of the guards, nodded, "We'll stop them." β
After the spiritual energy that burst out of his hand once again knocked the robots that were fighting against him away, Bai Qi broke away from the battle, and his own personal guards stopped those enemies.
Bai Qi walked alone with the rewriter into the main control room along the shiny passage.
The main control room is very large, and bright light fills every corner.
The perceptive Bai Qi found the remaining blood stains and dry corpses here.
Someone has been in here.
If nothing else, if there is a problem with Tianmen AI, it should be caused by these people.
Bai Qi walked over to a withered corpse, crouched down, and scanned it.
The restored images are displayed in his personal database.
He saw the recovered corpse with a bloody cross on its forehead.
"The Crimson Order?"
Bai Qi had read the materials about the transcendent organization during the Human Alliance.
It is an organization that has spiked off from the Order, and it is said that one of them is led by an Eternal, more mysterious and powerful than the Sith Warriors, but not active.
Bai Qi looked up and saw a broken device plugged into the console in the distance, with dried blood spots on it.
There were also several desiccated corpses nearby, and scanning and recovery procedures proved that they were in a group.
The console's activated screen flashes with eerie numeric codes and text.
The main console is invaded by a virus, which may be the reason why the hosting AI is going berserk.
Bai Qi looked at the fragmented and incomplete information, and the built-in analysis program quickly analyzed the numbers and codes to find that the human-first security program was still running.
It limits the control of the behemoth by the frenzied hosting AI.
Otherwise, the huge number of intelligent machines would have overwhelmed the Second Expeditionary Fleet long ago.
Bai Qi walked over to the console and removed the broken device, which was analyzed to be another virus implanter.
It is clear that members of the Crimson Order want to infect the hosting AI with a virus.
But in the end, it was stopped by something, and it didn't work.
But part of the virus made its way into the console and infected the AI.
Bai Qi pieced together a part of the truth, but if he wanted to know the full truth, he had to obtain all the permissions before he could learn from the diary on the main console.
He took out the construct where the overwrite program was stored, plugged it into the interface of the main console, and let it perform the read and write overwrite operation.
Erase the virus that the Crimson Order members have planted on the main console.
Rewrite the underlying logic code of the AI to get the highest privileges.
At this time, a sense of crisis suddenly arises.
Bai Qi subconsciously dodged to the side, and a pitch-black sharp blade appeared out of thin air where he had just stood.
If he hadn't dodged, he would have to report to the God Emperor at that moment.
With the attack, the existence that had prevented the Scarlet Order from implanting the virus also slowly appeared in front of Bai Qi.
It is a black mist all over, with no fixed shape, just constantly tumbling.
Any part of the body can be transformed into a blade, a sword, and so on.
As its arms transformed into sharp atomic blades, the surface was covered in light.
Bai Qi recognized that it was a magneto-light unique to the oscillating force field.
It's so sharp, and it comes with an oscillating force field.
When it is chopped down, I am afraid that the neutron star material will be cut hard.
"Traitor, damn it."
It roared in human language, furious.
"I'm not a traitor as you call me, I've been recognized by the members of the Supreme Council of the Human Alliance, and we have identity verification from the dungeon." Bai Qi said.
"Traitor."
The black mist screamed again.
It swooped up like a frenzy, and the transformed sword slashed at Bai Qi like a storm.
The sound of metal striking continued to echo through the dark silence of the room.
Bai Qi could occasionally launch a counterattack, but that was meaningless, and when his long sword slashed at the opponent, the black mist dissipated, and then quickly regrouped.
He couldn't kill the other party at all.
can only barely support the opponent's offensive.
But just wait until the rewriter finishes its job and gets the highest privileges.
At that point, security procedures will restrict the behavior of these sapient machines, not allowing them to harm humans.
As if he had guessed what Bai Qi was thinking, the black mist suddenly conjured up a new weapon, slashed at the main console with one blow, and even split the rewriter that Bai Qi brought.
This scene made Bai Qi's heart cold, he burst into a shout, and the infinite spiritual energy was released, turning into thunder and hitting the body of the black mist, using the huge impact force to directly knock it away.
Bai Qi crouched down and looked at the rewriter, and found that it had been completely destroyed and could no longer complete the original work.
For a moment, a trace of despair suddenly appeared in his heart.
He doesn't know what to do with it!!
Could it be that after so many sacrifices, even the War and Mir were destroyed, did you get this result??
Without a rewriter, how can we get this AI back to normal!!
Do you want to return to the fleet to get the rewriter??
Thinking of this, Bai Qi shook his head, in that case, how many sacrifices would have to be paid!!
Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of the flame emblem on his armarmor.
A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my heart.
You don't have to have a rewriter to rewrite the underlying code of the AI.
He thought of the situation when Qin Zheng entered the Xinku area and established the first base.
He holds authority over machinery.
If you can do it with His power, you can do the same.
"Shelter me."
Bai Qi closed his eyes, and he released his soul into the subspace, following his memories to find the power of the God Emperor.
This was not difficult for him, and soon, he found a ray of light in his chaotic memories.
His soul followed the light all the way into that divine realm.
The black mist trembled and rolled, rapidly absorbing the psionic lightning released by Bai Qi and repairing its body.
In order to protect the Heavenly Gate, the human ancestors gave it many incredible abilities.
Absorb psionic energy, immortal and indestructible, withstand all physical and non-physical attacks.
The damage dealt by the white psionic lightning is rapidly disappearing.
It floated again, the billowing black mist turning into a pitch-black blade again.
Pounced on Bai Qi's location.
"Traitors, they all deserve to die." Sound appears out of thin air, as if some invisible force is vibrating the particles, thus producing sound.
It pounced on Bai Qi, trying to dismember him.
Bai Qi followed that ray of light and entered His realm.
There stood a magnificent temple with golden flames.
Soul-scorching light, endless roars of heroic spirits.
They are calling for the return of the first Killing Angel, guiding them to continue their fight.
Bai Qi felt a myriad of messages pouring into his mind.
His soul was melting.
The mind, the will, and the spirit are all merging with that vast will.
The majestic throne still sits in the center of the Flame Realm, and the figure sitting on it is so large that you can't see His face, only the endless terrifying coercion.
"Your Majesty." Bai Qi's soul was crying, "Help me." β
The figure sitting on the throne heard.
He bowed his head slightly, and looked at Bai Qi,
At that moment, everything melted away.
Bai Qi suddenly forgot whether he was alive or dead.
Memory, reality, past, future are all lost.
In reality, the flame mark on the white armor radiated brilliance.
A huge burst of light suddenly erupted, blowing the black mist away.
Bai Qi opened his eyes, and the golden flames were burning.
Unparalleled power sees him as a passage that is pouring into reality, changing everything around it.
He responded to His General, His First Angel.
Bai Qi stood up, he gasped.
He has been sublimated and possesses an immortal essence.
But he couldn't take it long.
The power of the Divine Emperor is too majestic and too terrifying.
After a long time, he will be burned alive to charcoal.
The long sword in his hand emitted golden flames.
The rewriter used to overwrite the rewriter had been destroyed, but he had one last chance, and that was the favor and mercy of the God-Emperor.
Bai Qi stabbed the long sword in his hand into the main console, and golden flames began to spread from the place where he stabbed in.
"Machine, self-healing."
Ethereal words echoed in the void, and human cries rang from the depths of the distant subspace.
The tormented spirit of the machine seemed to be comforted.
The sound of the machine forms a chorus, like a beautiful music
The Flame Sanctuary descended with Bai Qi as an anchor point.
Golden flames spread out, allowing the broken machine to be quickly restored.
Even the disembodied code appears in golden flame patterns, and the scrambled numbers and letters quickly become orderly.
The virus code disappears silently, allowing everything to return to its original state and even get better.
The power of the God-Emperor is terrifying, and it will reshape everything.
It is salvation, it is hope, and it is the future.
The light burst out from the main console, spreading rapidly, eventually covering the entire control center, and finally turning into a brilliant pillar of light and shooting into the vast void.
The golden flames spread faster than the speed of light.
The roaring array of artillery fell silent, and the fighting robots transitioned from killing to peaceful, laying down their guns and retreating to their sleeping places.
The billowing black mist fell silent, and its atomic structure changed again, creating the appearance of an elegant middle-aged man.
The flame emblem appeared on its forehead, then quickly faded away.
The AI I had seen before, the image of the distorted middle-aged man reappeared in front of Bai Qi.
The cheers of the mechanical spirits were heard from the depths.
Bai Qi drew his weapon.
The sliced main console was rejuvenated by the power of the flames, and it was not visible that it had been attacked.
The middle-aged man walked up to Bai Qi's side.
[According to the Human Supremacy Act formulated by the Human Alliance, those of you who obtain the Underground Palace Database will obtain the highest authority of the Heavenly Gate Defense System. γ
γWelcome Home, Childrenγ
The long-dormant stargate flickered with light, and then these rays joined together to activate the majestic giant structure.
The empty area of the ring crackled, and a misty light appeared out of thin air, filling the ring with brilliant colors.
The passage to the solar system was opened.
Eight thousand two, today I feel full of vitality again.
Come on!!
Reclaim the Earth and unify the Galaxy.
