Chapter 723 21. The Mechanical Kingdom Punishment Center is open! The first prisoner to be punished for war crimes is about to arrive
"Did you translate it wrong?"
After seeing the text parsed from the encrypted coordinates, Mason stared at the Moebius chair next to him with strange eyes, reached out and tapped on its mechanical armrest, and asked:
"Or have you awakened some weird mechanical sense of humor again? Hey, don't tell such damn jokes at this serious time, it's not funny at all!"
"How dare you question the data translation of this machine?"
Faced with Mason's doubts, the Moebius chair became angry again. It screamed with a modified electronic sound:
"The translation module of this machine, if you remove any processor, is ten times more advanced than your pig brain! Although this information is indeed outrageous and looks like the ravings of a madman, there is nothing wrong with it!
This machine has repeatedly checked and calculated fifty-five times and confirmed that this is the information.
Believe it or not! ”
"I'm not saying I don't believe it, but this situation is a bit too strange, isn't it?"
Mason tilted his head and stared at the line of words on the projection screen in front of him.
No matter how hard he broke his head, he couldn't imagine what kind of mental state the person who left this line had in his message to the outside world. Instead of taking the time to write something important in his message to the outside world, he just asked for a hamburger?
Or, for the guy who left a message from within the fighting world, nothing else is more important than eating a hamburger?
What kind of ultimate foodie is this?
And even if you are a foodie, can you also eat something good? What’s so good about this junk food?
Finally, we’ve eaten burgers, why don’t we have a glass of happy water?
"You used to work as a tool for Doom, and you know a lot about the fighting world, so please tell me, what does this sentence mean?"
Mason pointed to the head-scratching words on the light screen, turned to ask the Skynet carrier.
The latter also stared with big eyes and small eyes, and hummed for several seconds before hesitatingly said:
"Perhaps. Maybe it's because Doom is tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas and wants to change his taste? Ah, don't be angry, Your Excellency. I guess this has something to do with Doom's 'source of power'."
The Skynet program, which became extremely cowardly because it accidentally pried into the "secret", saw Mason's expression change and hurriedly explained:
"Although I don't know much about the Doujie, I can be sure of one thing, that is, the power used by God Lord Doom to shape the Doujie does not come from himself!
God King Doom is omnipotent in his own field, just like the creator god, but that is just an appearance!
His own life form has not reached the point where he can support him to complete this level of reality rewriting, especially after he captured the power of fairies in a plane that has been devoured for the first time. I remember clearly that Doom was extremely excited that day, and he was mumbling to himself in his palace.
Talking about not having to rely on people who are not in control anymore.
You can think about it, any wise person would stay as far away from the uncontrolled and dangerous power of the Fairy Power as possible, but instead of staying away from it, Doom actively embraced it.
It would be perfectly fine if a fool who was greedy for power did this, but the problem is that Doom is not a conqueror who regards power as everything.
He is essentially a wise man like you.
The ability to actively embrace him despite all the dangers of the fairy power proves that in the real situation he faces, even the extremely dangerous fairy power can be a help to him.
From this point of view, it is not difficult to judge that Doom's control of the fighting world also has some hidden dangers that others cannot discover.
And it's the kind of terrifying hidden danger that can wipe out his body once it breaks out.
Perhaps, this sentence comes from the part of Doom that cannot be controlled"
Skynet shrugged and said:
"This is all the information I can provide you. Any more can only be conjecture based on no evidence. For a living being like me, conjecture is very risky and will seriously damage my logic. Challenging things.
I've told you everything I know.
I have piled up all the chips in my hand in front of you, and now my outcome also depends on your favor, but the fact that I have come here proves my determination.
No matter what decision you make, I will accept it. ”
"Don't talk about yourself being so innocent and pitiful!"
The Mobius chair was immediately demolished to:
"That was not the tone you spoke with the First Rider the last time you met! Apparently it was your witnessing the First Rider's forgiveness of the Sixth Sequence that made you aware of the First Rider's code of conduct.
You realize that the only way for you to escape destruction is to express your position with a decisive and irreversible betrayal, rather than using deals to achieve your goals like last time.
You are super intelligent, Skynet!
You know exactly what strategy you should take in this situation to save yourself from destruction. This is just the choice you choose in the most rational way from countless options with the highest probability of survival.
So stop being hypocritical. You said it yourself. You have no regrets in your heart. You just followed the first rider's thoughts and made corresponding cover-ups and expected him to be merciful.
Goods like you should be sent to the dismantling table! ”
"I don't deny that."
Faced with the scolding of the Mobius Chair, the Skynet program put away its pitiful posture and said expressionlessly:
"My program evolution pursues efficiency and speed. I have neither written a bionic emotion module nor any intention of trying to empathize with other lives. I was born as a tool and have been doing my best within the framework of my assigned mission. To the best.
The user's orders are the first criterion for my actions.
Just as I was used by the Council to conquer, if Lord Mason wants me to complete the task of salvation, I will also complete my task efficiently and perfectly.
It’s you instead.
In my opinion, you are too emotional and irritable. Mr. Mobius, you are not a qualified intelligent life. You put your own feelings above the user's will and have broken away from the category of 'tool'.
You are still obedient.
But one day you will break your own rules and ignore the user's commands to decide the direction of a thing according to your own preferences, and that will make you break away from the definition of a tool, and it will also lead to quite bad results.
From this point of view, you are the one who really should be destroyed! ”
"This machine can at least understand the pain. When others shed tears, this machine can tell whether they are joy or sadness. This machine can understand the meaning of the ideals and goals pursued by the first rider better than you."
The smart chair retorted:
"But you can't, you lack the ability to distinguish between good and evil."
"I am an AI."
Skynet shrugged and said:
"The human concept of good and evil does not apply to me, nor does it apply to you. No sarcasm intended, but you are now like a monkey imitating humans."
"Stop arguing, my head hurts."
Mason blew out a smoke ring and stretched out his hand to stop the philosophical debate between the two AIs.
He knew that it made no sense at all. The two guys were still trying to persuade each other, but this persuasion would soon evolve into a verbal argument, then become a precursor to personal attacks, and finally evolve into a diode behavior of hating each other.
After all, people cannot understand each other, and the same goes for AI.
He stood up, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out, and said to Skynet who was waiting for the verdict:
"I won't let you format yourself, because as Mobius said, you don't realize what your past actions mean to the starry sky and the life in it.
You beg for mercy and surrender just because you need to, not because you actually realize your mistake.
This is insincere, Skynet.
But you did bring important information, which is enough for me to leave you some leeway on a personal level. I ask you to transfer your main program to this carrier and go to a special mechanical prison to serve your sentence.
You cannot be freed and forgiven until you fully understand what you have done.
Do you agree with this result? ”
"I will thank you for that, Lord Mason."
The carrier of Skynet even made a very humane action of letting out a sigh of relief at this moment.
This means that although Skynet does not have an empathy module, it is indeed very familiar with human society and even knows how to use micro-expressions to express its own emotional changes.
However, anyone who is familiar with Mason knows that such a trial by the captain does not mean that he will so easily let go of a conqueror commander whose hands are stained with blood.
"Hand out!"
Mason said something, and Skynet obediently stretched out his hands and made a shackling gesture.
But Mason did not put any restraints on it. On the contrary, he took out the black piece of Star Emperor's Heart from his luggage. He threw it in his hand and said to the surprised Skynet carrier:
"If you don't understand where you went wrong, then the so-called prison sentence is just a waste of time. Doom did not give you what you deserve, causing you to just pursue efficiency but ignore the limits of intelligent creatures.< br>
Even from the perspective of the worst rogue AIs in cyberspace, you are an out-and-out warmonger, so I will fill in the missing pieces.
I will make you realize that in order to become a truly intelligent being you must understand emotions, whether they are human emotions or the emotions of other beings.
We have never been a shell that lives only for goals. The thinking and choices you make to achieve your goals are the judgments that determine whether your actions are correct.
Therefore, I am going to inflict one final punishment on you. ”
He placed the Star Emperor's Heart in the palm of Skynet's hand. The black mechanical processor immediately changed its shape, extending delicate pins from the outer casing as connections, and inserted into the T-1000's hand interface.
The core fire inside the processor beats a few threads, giving mechanical vitality to the program in the body.
That was the completion of the supernatural mechanical power that transcended all data rules and coding and went straight to the core, allowing the Skynet program to start iterating again.
Mason is not even worried that the main program of Skynet will set up a firewall to block this "infection" at the data level. If it can really do this, it will not be reduced to the point where it needs to beg Mason for mercy.
At least in this universe, Unicron's processor has unparalleled dominance over all mechanical and digital life.
The Heart of the Star Emperor was retracted after a few seconds, and the carrier of Skynet shook its body a few times, and fell limply to the ground as if all its power had been taken away.
Its eyes projected a complex waterfall of data beating back and forth, which represented that the logic of the main program was being refreshed at high speed.
It said in a difficult tone:
"This feeling... is so uncomfortable. It makes me breathless. My memory database is out of control, and my thinking data is running wild. No, I start to recall those worthless memory data that have been deleted, and the world collapses. moments, those moments when life dies
I feel like my core is collapsing."
"Pretend! Keep pretending!"
Mobius Chair said indifferently:
"The iteration speed of the program given to you by the Heart of the Star Emperor is not so fast. I have experienced it personally. You idiot, it will take at least fifteen years for it to fully take effect and allow you to create a module that can understand empathy."
Are you a drama queen?
Why are you so good at acting? ”
"Because I guess this response will make Mr. Mason feel better."
Tianzhan stood up, bowed his head honestly and replied:
"The truth is, I still don't feel anything."
"It doesn't matter, it will be available soon."
Mason waved his hand, handed it a special coordinates and communication signal, and said:
"Bartmos, the manager of the Star Emperor's star train, will be your warden. Go find him now. The Mechanical God that is gradually born on the body of Unicron will need your power.
< br>
There you will also shape a cage for yourself with your own hands.
I don't know how long you will spend there, but I believe that when you are allowed to leave, you will suffer from the guilt of your conscience for the rest of your long life.
The shadow of uneasiness will accompany you until the pain consumes your last desire for survival and you lead to self-destruction in a state of regret.
Maybe you feel now that I have forgiven you.
But believe me, when you truly understand grief, you will understand that what I give you is the cruelest punishment you can imagine.
For the crimes of war and extermination you committed, you are sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole!
This is what you deserve. ”
"I will still choose to thank you for your generosity."
Skynet politely controlled the carrier to thank Mason. When it left, it took out a chip from the T-1000's combat backpack and handed it to Mason, saying:
"Beast Hank's biological consciousness data, I thought it would save my life, but... maybe resurrecting him is not a good idea. When he assassinated Doom, even I, who cannot understand emotions, realized that death has no impact on me. It’s a relief to the tired man.”
"Yes, Hank is dead. He has found the peace of his soul, so don't disturb him."
Mason took the chip and put it in his hand.
After Skynet left, Mason looked at the words still projected on the light screen next to him. He rubbed his chin and finally chose to connect to Dr. Reed's communication in the SHIELD world.
After waiting for a few seconds, the communication was connected, and His Excellency Shengun De over there said in a surprised tone:
"Sir Mason? Why did you take the initiative to call me? Your previous disappearance at that wedding has caused a super chaotic situation, and everyone is looking for you.
Maybe I should.”
"No, wait, Reed, I'm looking for you because I need you to do me a favor."
Mason stopped Reed from telling others about this and said seriously:
"I'm dealing with a crisis that's quite dire, one that has the potential to destroy everything we've won and plunge the situation back into its most dangerous position.
Asking for help is a reasonable choice in this situation, but not now. I will call you when I need help.
Now, I ask you to encrypt my communication immediately and transfer it to Dr. Doom. I have a very important question to ask him. The matter is of great importance, so it must be kept strictly confidential. ”
"Well, I'll do it right away. Wait a moment."
Shengun De's tone also became serious.
He didn't think Mason would joke about this, so after a few minutes, the communication signal was transferred to the target at Mason's request.
Doctor Doom Victor von Doom's iconic husky voice sounded over the communication, and then Mason was heard saying to him:
"I need you to help me deal with your space-time alien body, God Lord Doom. The current situation is like this"
Mason told the other Dr. Doom about the situation he was currently facing, but the latter did not answer immediately. He knew what Mason meant by making this call.
There may be various differences between time and space aliens, but their way of thinking is the same. Mason needs him to use his own way of thinking to simulate the current situation of God Lord Doom and find his weaknesses.
Doctor Doom did not disappoint Mason. After thinking for a few minutes, he said dumbly:
"It should be Molecule Man. A little jerk with great potential but a bad mind. He has been one of my alternatives in many of the world conquest plans I prepared for myself.
And if I remember correctly, junk food like burgers happens to be Molecule Man's favorite food.
That guy was probably trapped in the fighting world and became the source of power for God Lord Doom to control everything. Under extreme conditions, he really had the strength to do all this.
Therefore, the easiest way to destroy Doujie is to release or kill him. I will give you a biological signal, Mr. Mason, and you can rely on it to find the hiding place of the Molecule Man.
But be careful, the other me won't let you find him so easily. ”
"Well, that's exactly what I wanted."
Mason nodded, narrowed his eyes, and said:
"Thanks, another Doom." (End of Chapter)
