Chapter 63 Rick's Enlightenment

After sorting out all the information, Rick still couldn't grasp the situation and didn't dare to take any action. Google search reading

At this time, the girl-shaped machine that was originally straddling Rick continued: "It is speculated that... this scene is not suitable for making this request."

Hearing this completely unexpected question, Rick hesitated for a moment, and then realized that this machine was obviously speaking human language.

At least it is certain that she has some knowledge of the human race.

While this fact in itself is chilling, ignoring her and rejecting her words could very well be considered a hostile act.

Reason ordered Rick to cooperate with her conversation now.

You cannot take any action until you understand the situation.

Perhaps she didn't intend to answer Rick's question, so she continued with an expressionless face and a smooth voice:

"Read... setting 072 - people don't do this voluntarily. It's an accident, yes, it's an accident."

Hearing her tone of voice that was no less reciting than her brother's at first, Rick's mind went blank again.

What is this situation?

"Confirm that the subject's body temperature, pulse, and SZ organs are unresponsive."

"Please don't peek at other people's physiological reactions, okay?"

Rick tried to pretend to be calm. He couldn't help but feel dumbfounded in his heart when he learned another piece of difficult information.

The physiological reaction was picked up by her.

In other words, if you lie, the possibility of being viewed as hostile is extremely high.

I don’t know if she understands what she is worried about, but she heard the mechanical girl ask again:

"Question... Human beings will be sexually excited in this situation. Is this assumption wrong?"

"...Well," Rick tentatively replied, it depends on the person.

You can't lie, but you can't see the other person's purpose and can't grasp the situation.

If she can even see through her physiological reactions, then Rick's fear cannot be hidden from her, right? What is her purpose...?

"You're not sexually aroused by this machine - is it because I'm not attractive?"

Just as Rick was thinking, she asked this extremely difficult question, and Rick suddenly felt dizzy.

This disaster, in which hostility is tantamount to annihilation, raises questions that are difficult to answer even for humans, and they cannot lie.

Rick had no choice but to be aware and carefully observe the Ex-Machina sitting on top of him.

She looks like a human girl around ten years old.

Her snow-white skin contrasting with her long black hair, and her ruby ​​eyes showed that she was an impeccably beautiful girl.

Of course, if there weren't machines everywhere on the body and two tail-like pipelines...

"Objectively speaking, I think you are cute. But when it comes to generating that kind of excitement, humans are better, and you look a bit too young."

What's the answer? Neither lying nor denying.

As far as I'm concerned, this is a perfect answer.

Rick even felt a sense of accomplishment, but the Ex-Machina girl immediately denied it: "Without that experience, there is no chance of choosing a partner."

Rick heard her question and asked cautiously: "Do you mean that as a virgin, I don't have the right to choose my preferences?"

The Ex-Machina girl nodded mechanically, and then told Rick mechanically: "Please cooperate with me. My mission this time is to analyze the unique language of human beings called the heart.

It has been confirmed that the heart is a human skin-kin relationship, which is a unique language that uses negative distance contact between skin tissue and exchange of body fluids. The emotions born in the process are presumed to be communication behaviors of the heart that Ex-Machina lacks.

As long as it imitates the same action, the machine can also read what is in the mind... Is this analysis wrong?

Rick smiled silently.

He discovered a very cruel fact.

The Ex-Machina has been observing humans, probably for quite some time.

The Ricks comically think they are hiding well, but in fact they have it all under their control

Regardless of the reason for being targeted, this is both a best-case scenario and a worst-case scenario.

In order to allow the surviving humans to continue to survive as ghosts on this planet, Rick decided to deepen the blockade of the heart.

Ka Chong.

The sound of locking was several times heavier than usual, and Rick opened his eyes.

At this moment, he had decided in his heart that those sudden allies and reinforcements could not be counted on at all.

It's hard to imagine how bitter and desperate Rick feels now.

Human beings can only rely on themselves.

Rick took a deep breath, this time for two purposes.

One is to convince myself that I am in a friendly relationship with this machine.

Another purpose is to induce her to make poor judgments.

Her purpose is to analyze the heart. If that is true, it means that this guy has no heart, unlike humans, and does not know how to conceal and deceive.

It is much easier to deceive people who have no heart than to deceive human beings.

And Hubie finally ended his long thinking, still looking seriously, stating Rick's wrong opinion.

"The so-called skin-to-skin contact is a metaphor for reproductive behavior. Please engage in reproductive behavior with me."

"I reject."

Perhaps with a degree of forceful rejection, this statement may be viewed as a hostile statement.

But Rick's calm mind and subconscious concluded that there would be no problem.

And he wants to prove that even virgins have the right to choose for the first time.

What's more important is that you must extract the information that should be extracted.

"The Ex-Machinas are connected by something called a link, right? Sorry, I don't have a hobby of exposing myself." Riku said lightly.

"This machine has been disconnected from the link, and the reason you proposed is denied. Please analyze the heart with this machine."

Although Riku had predicted it in advance, it was just his wishful thinking before, and now it has been confirmed.

"Huh? Why?" Riku pretended to be confused and asked.

"This machine wanted to analyze whether the Ex-Machinas have hearts, egos, and souls.

Due to theoretical loopholes, many contradictions arose, and this machine was disconnected and scrapped.

" Riku finally confirmed the reason why the Ex-Machinas took such a haphazard action.

Because this machine is broken.

That would be the best.

Although I still can't rest assured, I have moved away from the worst possibility.

"... Eh, that means... you..." Riku frowned and said something that seemed to be worried about her.

Hubie nodded vigorously and said, "You can follow your desires and ravage this machine without any problems, although this machine does not have the same aspects as a human female."

Rick: "..."

Seeing that Rick did not respond, she remained expressionless and tilted her head and said, "You can also take this machine back to the settlement and ravage it slowly."

Rick: "I won't do that! So you didn't!"

"I understand, because you don't feel the charm of this machine, so you refuse reproductive behavior."

"You don't understand the situation at all..."
