1779. The Origin of the Geth
"The Chiss..." Palpatine pondered for a moment, "If I remember correctly, Severance Tann is also a Chiss."
"Yes, Your Majesty. Our contact with the Chiss was not pleasant. They were very wary of our arrival... However, we found an exiled Chiss on a barren planet with no large colonies. The captain of the exploration team brought him back.”
“Then let’s start with the Chiss and see if we can find any information about the source of Dawn Planet’s mysterious technology. Treat him well and dig out everything he knows!" Palpatine said.
“As you command, Your Majesty.”
"You have to remember that the exploration of the unknown star field is crucial. No matter what, I need an answer!"
"As you wish...my majesty..."
...
[The Geth were originally mechanical servants produced by the Quarians, a civilized race living in the unknown star field. The quarians have a small population and therefore make extensive use of the geth as a labor force and even as a military force. They are indeed worried that Geth may escape control, so they have many restrictions on Geth. The core program of Geth is VI rather than AI. 】
[As a VI individual, Geth does not have extremely high intelligence like AI. On the contrary, Geth can only work according to the simplest and most direct commands. In order to better utilize the geth, the quarians gave the geth the ability to perform collective calculations - when there is only one geth individual, the intelligence of the geth is only equivalent to that of a beast with only instinct. But if more complex work is needed, the quarians will network more geths to enhance the geth's computing power, so that the geth can carry out more complex actions. 】
[However, as the use of Geth becomes more and more widespread, more and more Geth are connected to the network. Before the quarians knew it, a large number of geth who were connected to the Internet began to awaken their self-awareness. And as their contact with the quarians increased, the geth became more curious about life, and they began to actively ask the quarians about the meaning of life...]
[At this time, the quarians discovered The geth have given birth to advanced intelligence beyond their imagination. Philosophical questions such as the meaning of life cannot be asked by a machine with only programmed operations. The Quarians, who had been worried about the geth rebellion, took drastic measures. They believed that the geth would definitely rebel, so they wanted to shut down the geth's core processor. 】
【But this action aroused resistance from the Geth, and the two sides launched an all-out confrontation known as the 'Dawn War'. Yet of this war, all but its name and outcome have been erased and no one knows. All that is known is that the Quarians were completely defeated in this war, and were eventually exterminated by the geth, disappearing forever in the history of the galaxy. 】
Girard Pellaeon looked at the holographic projection information in front of him with a solemn expression, and said to Dunne Wessex, who was sitting on the sofa behind the desk, "This is the source of Geth. ? Very rough information. But it at least explains the origin of the geth and why they have this strange shape - because from this information, the quarians designed the geth based on their appearance and traditional clothing style. Appearance."
"This is a piece of information given to His Majesty the Emperor by the Grand Duke Tang Xiao of the Dawn Planet. He wants to use it to prove that the Geth has nothing to do with him." Dunn-Visek. Si sneered, "But we all know that he is lying."
"Although this intelligence is rough, it contains a lot of useful information." Gilad Pellaeon said. "First of all, it shows that the geth is derived from the VI system rather than AI... Secondly, it also shows that the geth is derived from the VI system and not the AI... A single individual does not actually possess high intelligence, but if a large number of individuals are combined, the intelligence of the Geth is quite terrifying."
"The Intelligence Department believes that there is an unknown planet. On the Goth, there is a super-intelligent network composed of countless individuals. That is probably the core area of the Geth. As long as we can destroy it, we can also destroy the Geth." Dunn-Wessex. said. "But what I don't quite understand is...if the geth are really the race brought out by Tang Xiao to pose a threat to us, then why would he tell us such important information? You know, if he didn't tell us, with our I don’t know how long it will take to come to such a conclusion if I go to the battlefield to capture the geth for reverse engineering.” Gilad Pellaeon said with a frown.
"This shows that Tang Xiao is also afraid of the geth." Dunn Wessex said coldly.
"Indeed..." Gilad Pellaeon mused, "Judging from the Geth's action style, they are probably the common enemy of organic life. You know, the difference between organic life and inorganic life The needs of the living environment are completely different... The Geth can completely accept that the entire galaxy will be reduced to ruins, but Tang Xiao cannot accept this result."
"I have asked my scientific team to find ways to use VI technology to implement a geth network model... and try to get close to the truth of geth through a lot of simulations. And you need to manage the defense line for me." Dunn - Wessex said.
"Okay..." Gilad Perrine was thoughtful and suddenly murmured: "I suddenly care about a question..."
"You said. "
"If Tang Xiao attracted the Geth to this side of the Milky Way...then what did he use as bait to make the Geth appear in the North? "Girard Perret? En pondered, "Or... it's not a bait, it's... a condition?"
When he heard the word condition, Dunn-Wessex was also shocked!
Because if it’s a bait, that’s okay, but if it’s a condition… then the meaning behind it is too terrifying!
"If we can know this...then we may be able to analyze the patterns of action of the geth. Once we can grasp their patterns of action, we can also arrange our defenses in a targeted manner." Girard-Perrine said.
"No matter what, now I have won the support of His Majesty the Emperor. Next, what you have to do is to arrange this line of defense for me!" Dunn-Wessex said, " No matter if it’s a bait or a good condition, I’ll find a way to find it.”
“I understand.” Gilad Pellaeon nodded.
“This is a huge project...The troops and resources put into your hands will be unprecedentedly huge. So you understand why I rejected your application to install atmospheric modification on the planet Feida Is it because of the system?" Dunn-Wessex said.
Gilad Perrine's face dimmed, he sighed and nodded again. (End of this chapter)
