Chapter 339 Just playing
"Honestly, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought you were crazy."
Looking at the scorched battlefield in front of him, the man sighed and said that he was the commander of the resistance, John Connor, who was ranked first on Skynet's blacklist.
"Actually, I also think it's a dream. Maybe I'm dead, maybe I'm in hell now."
Ryan, who was standing next to him, also nodded, while the former gave a wry smile.
"If this is hell, then we are indeed in hell, but...it's a pity that everything you said is true."
As he spoke, John reached out and picked up a fragment of the robot's head from the ground. The originally skull-like head had been penetrated, leaving only half of the face. But this is not important. What is important is that when John's fingers touched the skull fragments, he felt a biting cold air, as if what he held in his hands was not steel, but ice--there was even ice on it. Frost is condensing.
"Commander, do you think they will be... infiltrators?"
At this moment, Ryan also asked with a serious expression. Of course they knew that Skynet had created human-like robots to infiltrate among them to collect intelligence.
"Even if it is a robot, it cannot control the wind and rain, let alone summon meteors from its hands."
John shook his head.
"Of course, we have to see them to know the specific situation...where have they gone?"
"This..."
Faced with John's inquiry, Ryan thought for a moment.
"They asked me where there was a Skynet base nearby, and then left..."
"Do you think they went to attack Skynet's base? Or went to defect to Skynet?"
"…………I don’t know."
"Yeah..."
After hearing Ryan's answer, John let out a long breath.
"I don't know whether the appearance of this group of people is a blessing or a curse."
Looking at the battlefield in front of him, although John Connor appeared very calm on the outside, he was in a turmoil inside. Initially, the rebels sent the B18 team here to protect and evacuate the refugees here. Unexpectedly, Skynet's army appeared earlier than expected. It turned out that this was a trap of Skynet. They deliberately sent threatening messages to this group of refugees, causing the refugees to ask for help from the rebels, and then let the rebels send troops to take them over. Catch them all in one fell swoop.
In fact, when he received the news that the B18 team was surrounded, John Connor was already mentally prepared for the entire team to be annihilated.
However...the result was beyond John Connor's expectation.
The B18 team actually defeated the Skynet army that besieged them!
This is simply a fantasy!
At first, John Connor also thought this was some kind of trap, but after hearing the other party's report, John Connor also looked confused. What the other party said was really too incredible. To be honest, just make up a lie. Can you make up a decent and logical one?
A group of people who can use magic suddenly rushed out to save you and defeated the Skynet Legion, and there were only a dozen of them?
Are you kidding me?
Of course, if it were just one person's report, John Connor would definitely not believe it, but the problem is that there are many B18 team soldiers there, and even those rescued refugees. Hearing what so many people said was true, he couldn't help it. However, in order to avoid this being another Skynet trap, he first sent a reconnaissance plane to investigate. After confirming that there were no Skynet troops around, he brought people here to check the scene in person and inquire about the situation.
After questioning several people, John Connor felt even more incredible. These people were all conscious and very sure of what they saw, and the traces on the battlefield also proved this... Thinking of this, John Connor raised his head again Looking at the wreckage of the hunting tank ahead, a round hole is clearly visible in the middle of the tank.
According to eyewitnesses, it was caused by one of the girls summoning a knight about the same size as a hunting tank, who shot it through.
It's almost like a fairy tale.
In fact, at first, John Connor also doubted whether they might be lurker-type robots manufactured by Skynet. But he soon rejected his idea. According to Ryan's report, the man in the lead was two meters and five meters tall, wearing a heavy and huge mechanical armor, and had a skull mark on his body--who would be the first to see this? When you look at it, you won’t think that the other person is a human being!
Skynet is not stupid.
John Connor really wanted to take the initiative to talk to them, but unfortunately...the other party didn't seem to intend to communicate more with himself and others, which made John Connor even more suspicious.
What do they want to do?
While John Connor was racking his brains and thinking hard, Duanmu Huai was leading others along the highway, leisurely moving forward.
Although for Duanmu Huai, it didn't matter if he just walked over, but the girls said that they were all weak girls and were unwilling to walk such a long way, so in desperation, Duanmu Huai had to summon some animals to guide them. .
Duanmuhuai himself rode the giant electronic rhinoceros, while Ogis, Bambi and Kula sat on his shoulders and behind. As for the others, they rode in pairs, riding an animal called a white reindeer. This is a specialty of the forests near the Holy City. They are white in color, have wings, and have slight lightning on their horns. They look quite beautiful.
Only Lorena exhaled in small mouths and kept jogging beside him - well, for her who had to run dozens of kilometers every day, this could be considered exercise and fitness.
Of course, ordinary people really can’t learn this.
Duanmuhuai was riding on the electromagnetic rhinoceros, looking ahead and humming a song.
"I went all the way north, leaving the season with you. You said you were so tired and could no longer fall in love with anyone..." "I never expected that it would be like this..."
Eclair, who was sitting in the back, looked at the charred car wreckage on the road and couldn't help but sigh. It is not that she has never experienced war, but in Galaxy 59, it is basically a civil war between humans. This is the first time she has seen a war between humans and machine civilization, which makes Eclair's mood very complicated.
"I said..."
Thinking of this, Eclair looked at Duanmu Huai and asked.
"Will a similar situation occur in our galaxy?"
It was not without reason that Eclair asked this. Galaxy 59, as an interstellar civilization, naturally had a history of using robots. In fact, she also knew that Lumière had a group of machine servants serving her in her home. Of course, those robots don't look like humans, nor are they as scary as the iron skeletons of these machine legions.
"Pretty much. The Omnic Crisis is a problem that almost every civilization will inevitably experience after it develops to a certain level. Whether they can survive it depends on themselves."
Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders and answered.
"Is this why you asked Lumiel that question?"
Eclair still remembers that during the "interview" at that time, Duanmuhuai specifically asked Lumière "what do you think of AIs that have complete self-intelligence and whether they are allowed to exist?" Lumière was also very confused at the time. After thinking for a while, she answered that she believed that AI with certain intelligence could exist, but a completely autonomous AI... Lumière couldn't say.
At that time, Duanmu Huai was noncommittal about this, and just told them that the Tribunal strictly prohibited any artificial intelligence that has its own self. But now, Eclair finally understood what he meant.
"That's right."
Duanmuhuai nodded.
"I know technologists are very good at making artificial intelligences and treating them as their own children. If these artificial intelligences become self-aware, then they may think that is a good thing because in their view , It is like creating a new race with your own hands. But for humans, this is the enemy that threatens their survival. The reason is very simple. People who are not my race must have different minds."
"This..."
Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Eclair frowned.
"What you said is a bit too absolute. There are good aliens, right?"
"What is good? What is bad? Who defines it."
Hearing Eclair's question, Duanmuhuai chuckled, and then he pointed ahead - there, several charred car wrecks were blocking the middle of the road, and dead human corpses and bones could still be seen inside. These wreckage were easily knocked away by the electromagnetic rhinoceros and pushed to the side.
"Look, what do you think this is? Skynet has created a large number of robots to kill humans. Do you think this is a bad thing?"
"Of course."
Eclair nodded vigorously.
"But from Skynet's point of view, this is not the case. It is only executing its own orders and its own logic. For it, destroying humans is just a means to achieve its goals. Therefore, Skynet will not feel that it is Whether it is good or bad, because it has no such concept, even if it kills babies or children, they will not be affected at all. The reason is simple, that is... they are not human beings, they will not stand. If you think about the problem from a human perspective, you will not understand the so-called morality. ”
"This..."
Hearing this, Eclair was speechless for a moment.
"This is the problem. It is the same between any race, so the Inquisition strictly prohibits any artificial intelligence with independent intelligence. Maybe the birth of Skynet is also the same."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai snorted coldly.
"Maybe when Skynet was built, a programmer discovered that it had a certain degree of self-intelligence, but he thought it would not have any serious consequences, so he made a wrong choice... Haha, unnecessary sympathy Sometimes it also leads humans to embark on a path of self-destruction.”
"………………"
At this moment, Eclair stopped talking, and Duanmuhuai also retracted his gaze and looked forward.
He didn't plan to stay with the rebels. There would be no benefit in doing so, and it might also allow the other party to kill him and others in one fell swoop. In addition, since Duanmu Huai's purpose is to consume Skynet's computing power as much as possible, then naturally he must do it in the most complicated way.
Just like when you play real-time strategy, it is definitely harder to deal with two computers at the same time than one.
Not only that, Duanmu Huai also has to hide from the core of Skynet, which means that unlike before, he will not attack Huanglong directly, but will look for trouble on the periphery of the opponent, giving Skynet a sufficient sense of threat without letting it Hide in fear.
After all, the real killer move against Skynet is not Duanmuhuai, but Lumielle.
In ancient times, Duanmu Huai was deliberately showing off outside to lure the guards in the city out to arrest him. Then, taking advantage of the emptiness and lack of manpower in the inner city, Lumière led a team of elites in to launch a beheading operation.
So what Duanmuhuai has to do now is to cause trouble!
Do something big!
