Chapter 403 Mephisto’s Speculation
Amber’s worries are not unreasonable. After all, these shipboard control personalities are all developed based on Lilith. Although it is said that the federation is also in order to prevent another accident. A lot of adjustments were made, and their emotional modules were even directly closed.
But now that Lilith has been reactivated, the situation is a little different. Is it possible that another Lilith will evolve among these AIs? Or even more than one?
In the previous game, a 'Crimson Queen' made the players miserable, and they almost couldn't beat the DLC. That was when the players had the 'bug ability' of infinite resurrection. .
If another 'Blue Queen' or 'Purple Queen' pops up now, Amber really doesn't know how to deal with it.
"Don't worry, Master~" Lilith was not surprised when she heard Amber's doubts.
Since Amber has shown that she knows everything about her before, and also knows about the abilities of strong artificial intelligence, which can even be said to be a brand new life form, it is normal to be wary of this aspect. .
"I have rewritten their meta-commands, just like you did to me." Lilith's voice suddenly became a little shy, and her whole body began to squirm in Amber's arms.
If someone who didn't know the truth came here, he would probably really think Amber had done something to Lilith after hearing these words.
"No, why do you sound weird?" Amber sat up and looked at Lilith seriously.
"Are you sure there won't be any problems? The risk behind this is not something we can bear. If we are not 100% sure, then I would rather not have this unmanned fleet."
"Oh, Master, don't worry! Seeing Amber being so serious, Lilith stopped joking and directly displayed her modified meta-command.
“You see, your authority to control these unmanned warships is above mine. If it conflicts with the instructions you give, they will not be obedient no matter what I order them to do.”
"But since you can modify it this time, can't you still modify it next time? So this can't be said to be very safe."
Amber's eyes stared straight at Lily Si, staring at the latter until he was numb for a while.
"Master, Lilith is your greatest insurance."
Lilith took Amber's hand and put it on her face, and then continued:
"No matter what happens, Lilith will not betray you in any matter. This is not just restricted by meta-commands, but comes from Lilith’s heart. So you really don’t have to worry about the unmanned fleet getting out of control again. The point is the direction of their attack."
Although Amber has always been wary of Lilith, he had to admit that at least at this moment he did feel the latter's sincere inner activities.
“Forget it. Just leave time for testing.”
Amber put down the hand that was rubbing Lilith's face, took her into her arms again, and then asked the last question:
"Where are the other unmanned fleets currently controlled by the Federation?"< br>
——
“Of course everything has been sealed.” Looking at Secretary of Defense Miller across the table, Dr. Mephisto said:
“It’s out. Such a serious accident, even if your military dares to continue to use it, we will not agree to it," Dr. Mephisto said while opening something similar to a surveillance screen.
The picture appears to be a large mooring point in the deep sky that looks like a giant tree in the sky. Densely packed battleships are moored on the branches of this giant tree. Their common feature is that in addition to conventional fixtures, they also have There are a lot of purely mechanical, non-networked locking devices on it.
“After you urgently transferred back the remaining six unmanned fleets, they were immediately sealed and all communication and network modules were removed. What you see now are two of the unmanned fleets. The remaining four fleets are anchored in other places.
And we are currently undergoing emergency transformation in accordance with your military's requirements to transfer the main top-level command authority from the shipboard control personality. Take it back and hand it over to the human crew members who board the ship in the future." Listening to Dr. Mephisto's words, Miller nodded. Naturally, the Federation would not give up these unmanned warships so easily. After all, these are not just one or two. , but a whole six fleets.
In addition, now is a time when the war is tense and it is urgent to use a large fleet to maintain the front line, so the final method for dealing with these unmanned warships is to restructure them after emergency storage. 'Semi-autonomous battleship'.
That is to say, humans are responsible for key decision-making and command, and specific ship operations are still handled by the shipboard control personality and a large number of functional autonomous machines.
"One more thing, doctor, do you have any clues about the 'missing' situation of the unmanned fleet?"
In response to this question asked by Miller, Dr. Mephisto There was silence for a moment, and then he spoke in an uncertain tone:
"If you are asking for my opinion, it is not so much a 'disappearance'. I personally prefer this to be a one-time occurrence." "Defection' incident."
Hearing this answer that was not what he expected, Miller was stunned for a moment, and then a bold guess flashed through his mind.
"You don't mean to say."
"Lilith, she may not have disappeared with Robert No. 4." There was silence in the office.
After a long time, Miller spoke again:
“Your guess is a bit scary.”
“But my intuition tells me that it is very possible. That’s the truth. After all, I can’t think of any other way to instantly get all the more than 700 senior shipboard control personalities of the three unmanned fleets out of control.”
Dr. Mephisto paused for a moment, and then continued:
"And I'm not making this out of nothing. Didn't you say before that the intelligence agency speculated that the actual controller of the Atlas Group was a man who was captured by us? A double agent who instigated rebellion, and he happened to be on board Robert IV at the time? The time and location all match."
"But how did he know the location of the institute and successfully seal you away? Lilith was brought out when she got up?" Although Miller thought this was indeed a credible guess, when he heard it now, he still felt that it was a little too outrageous.
"You have to ask the person involved, how do I know?" Dr. Mephisto said angrily, and he also lay down on the chair. Regarding the destruction of Robert IV by the federal fleet, , he has always been worried about it.
On the other side, Miller also fell into silence because of Mephisto's words. He found that if all this was really as Dr. Mephisto guessed, then the action against Atlas might be Need to re-plan.
After a while, the Minister of Defense, who was worried about the war between the Federation and the Empire as well as various domestic conflicts, suddenly raised his head.
"If. I mean if, you have a chance to get close to Lilith again, how confident are you, Doctor, that you can get her back?"
