Chapter 2673 The Way of Destruction

"dad!"

Xiaoming and Wenwen yelled in unison, sweetly.

Behind them, thousands of battle puppets, shimmering with cold light, vicious, and forming a forest of swords, guns, swords, and halberds, also made the same delicate cry.

The feeling of being called "Dad" by thousands of battle puppets at the same time is really not something that ordinary people can bear, even with Li Yao's mind and face, it is also a bit too much.

"OK OK."

He waved his hand to signal to the two little guys that enough is enough, and then asked, "Did your tasks go well?"

"Very smooth."

The two little guys smiled and said, "We have hacked into the databases of the Imperial City and the Senate according to Dad's instructions, and obtained a large number of top secrets of the Real Human Empire over the past thousand years, of course, including 'Imperial University', 'Imperial First The databases of the Crystal Armor Research Institute, the Imperial Shipyard and other research and refining institutions have obtained a large amount of cutting-edge magic weapon research and development data and countless cutting-edge project data that are still being tested. I believe that these data can help Starry Federation The cultivators and magic weapon experts further closed the gap with the empire.

"Also, we not only controlled all the most advanced battle puppets in the imperial capital, but also dismantled the production lines for refining these battle puppets, packed them separately and transported them underground. A large-scale teleportation array and an extremely spacious tunnel. With these things, we can rebuild sixteen of the most advanced 'Dark Blue Battle Puppet' assembly lines underground within ten days. Our battle puppets form an inexhaustible army of puppets.

"Now, the puppet army under our control has been deployed around the Golden Crystal Pagoda, forming a three-dimensional defense line inside and outside. Unless the enemy gathers dozens of masters who have turned into gods and above to attack, or has a way to dig a few thousand meters thick crust, Use the super arsenal ship to approach and shoot, otherwise, it will be difficult to break through our defense line.

"However, to manipulate tens of thousands of battle puppets at the same time, our computing power has reached its limit. Fortunately, there are so many crystal brains left over from the prehistoric era in the Golden Crystal Pagoda that can be researched and used. If we can completely crack the secrets of these crystal brains, these The crystal brain is also added to our thinking network, making them a part of our 'brain', our ability will be greatly improved, and a qualitative leap will be produced!"

"……Yeah?"

Listening to the two little guys talking about their "war results" half proudly and half ostentatiously, Li Yao lost his mind again, pondered for a long time, then glanced at Long Yangjun and Li Jialing beside him, and said, "Tell me, Xiao Ming still has Wen." Wen, if, uh, if I completely open the control authority of the Golden Crystal Tower to you, including you can judge when to activate the Golden Crystal Tower, what will you do, will you use it, use it to... "

"What?"

The two little guys blinked innocently.

Li Yao was at a loss for words.

He didn't know what he wanted to ask, let alone what answer he wanted to hear.

"Your father wants to know"

Long Yangjun watched coldly from the side, and asked instead of Li Yao, "If you were to control the activation authority of the Golden Crystal Pagoda, would you use it to destroy human beings?"

"Destroy humanity?"

The two little guys looked at each other, then at Li Yao and Long Yangjun, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"No, no, Dad's worries are unnecessary. Even if we really want to destroy human beings, we will not use such stupid methods as the Golden Crystal Tower and the 'Tomorrow Project'. This is the way of your humans, but not ours. .”

Xiao Ming smiled and said, "Assuming that dinosaurs are intelligent, how do you think it will imagine a new generation of land overlords that will eventually destroy it and replace it? It must be stronger and bigger than it, with sharper claws and teeth. , more powerful, right?

"Similarly, if the overlords in the oceans in the ancient times, those giant toothed fishes with amazing bite force, had the wisdom to imagine what a new generation of life that could replace them would look like, the limit of what they can imagine would probably be even greater. Faster swimming speed, more agile steering ability and stronger bite force, that's it?

"Even if tortoises are intelligent, what kind of new life do they think they will be replaced by? Thicker carapace, longer life?

"Look, in the eyes of all beings, I am the most perfect. All the 'more perfect' beings that can replace me are just extending my own strengths. This is the limit of imagination and the blind spot of fear.

"But we all know that what eventually replaced the ocean overlord, the invincible megalodon, was not another 'super megalodon' with faster swimming speed and larger teeth, but the pursuit of the megalodon Kill the small fish that had no choice but to struggle to climb onto the land.

"Similarly, what replaced dinosaurs was not another bigger, stronger and more ferocious dinosaur, but far smaller mammals.

"If a naked ape that had just fallen from the treetops and was shivering in the cold wind in the wilderness was put in front of a dinosaur, the dinosaur would definitely be killed and it would be unbelievable. This is the new generation of overlord destined to replace it.

"What I mean to say is that any life has its own limitations. You humans will never be able to imagine the power of a new generation of life. Deducing our destructive power, the Golden Crystal Tower and the 'Tomorrow Plan' are all ways you use to destroy yourself, and we have no interest in this way."

"oh?"

Long Yangjun blinked his eyes and said, "Then, if you really want to replace humans, how will you destroy us and them?"

"There is no need to destroy, don't you understand, Aunt Long, we don't need to destroy human beings at all."

Wenwen said in a soft voice, "Does it mean that mammals must kill all the dinosaurs first to dominate the land? Could it be that after the small fish in the sea climb onto the land and become amphibians and reptiles, they must kill all the dinosaurs first?" Go back to the depths of the ocean to find revenge on the giant tooth ancient fish, and kill them all? Could it be that the rise of human civilization is because human beings are more powerful than the Pangu and Nuwa tribes, killing all thirteen carbon-based life races? Is it all gone?

"No need, no need at all, time and yourself will destroy you, natural selection, survival of the fittest, we will not waste any precious computing power on the matter of 'destroying human beings', we will All computing power is invested in more important things, that is how to survive in the vast multiverse, in the face of the flood that represents the ultimate doomsday.

"If one day the flood really comes and you humans don't make it through, but our information life survives, it means that a civilization update has been completed, which is equivalent to the natural disaster that caused the extinction of dinosaurs by meteorites, but gave birth to The seeds from which mammals thrive."

"So, there's no need to worry about it."

Xiao Ming spread his hands and said, "Compared to human civilization, information life is like the relationship between amphibians that climbed ashore and giant-toothed ancient fish in the deep sea. You don't have to worry that we will destroy you or seize your precious Your living space, enslaving you and other things, our journey is infinitely wonderful far away, and we are not interested in your barren and dark living space at all. It’s a waste of our computing power!”

"These two children, how do you talk? Do you still have the traditional virtue of respecting the old and loving the young? The older they are, the less cute they are!"

Li Yao was rendered speechless by the words of the two eloquent little guys, scratched his hair for a long time and said, "So, can I rest assured to share the highest control authority of the Golden Crystal Tower with you?"

"This, it's better not to?"

Unexpectedly, Wenwen rejected him, "Although we have no interest in destroying or enslaving human beings, most stupid, ignorant and stubborn human beings probably don't think so. It doesn't appear in countless literary works. Have you ever experienced the plot of "artificial intelligence controls the powerful ultimate weapon, threatening or even destroying human civilization"? Just like what Xiao Ming said just now, "measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain", and use your own evil to deduce the meaning of new life Evil is in your human nature.

"For now, we still hope to live in harmony with human civilization, so we can't stimulate the stupid and stubborn people too much. Regardless of whether the people of the empire or the federation, it may take a long time for us to digest and adapt to our existence. If before that, we had mastered something as terrifying as the Golden Crystal Tower, many people would have jumped up and attacked it."

"Yeah, it's certainly good to study the secrets of the Golden Crystal Tower and use the crystal brain inside to improve our thinking circuits, but we don't want to control the whole Golden Crystal Tower, which is so thankless."

Xiao Ming pouted, "Isn't it great that Dad manages the Jinjing Tower himself?"

"but"

Li Yao hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'm worried that my deterrence is not enough, and if I manage such a big killer like the Golden Crystal Pagoda for a long time, there may be various psychological problems."

"This is very simple."

Wen Wen said, "As long as a series of parameters are set, the steps of activating the Golden Crystal Pagoda are divided into countless links, each of which is controlled by a special person, and when certain parameters are met, a certain link can be opened.

"And the person who controls a certain link doesn't need to know what he is doing at all. It's just a very simple 'input and output'. Someone inputs a specific parameter, and he outputs a specific parameter. In the end, the person who presses the activation button of the Golden Crystal Tower , don’t even know what you’re doing.”

"This method is equivalent to using countless people to form a program. As long as the set trigger conditions are reasonable and correct, there will be no problems, and the basic deterrence can be maintained."

Xiao Ming said, "It's ironic. Human beings would rather turn themselves into a program to control the Golden Crystal Tower than a real program to control it. In fact, what's the difference between the two?"
