Chapter 196: Intelligent Machines Awaken, and Humanity Perishes

The clouds were thick and dark.

The yellow sand was flying and chaotic.

The broken walls, collapsed pillars and beams, and the dark surface were traces of burning by the fierce fire, giving people a dull and depressing impact.

The end of the world is the best interpretation of the city in front of him.

When Xu Xi looked around, all he could see was the endless black ruins.

The wind was blowing.

The sand and stones were rustling.

The torn and burned buildings were like rows of collapsed black tombstones, standing diagonally on the endless and desolate land, characterizing the demise of civilization.

The world was terribly quiet, with only the sound of gears biting, clearly echoing in the ruins.

"This world..."

"Is it an alien invasion?"

"Or is it a terrible rebellion of intelligent machines?"

Xu Xi looked up at the cloudy sky.

The air was filled with a burning smell. A mechanical goshawk made of alloy flew by, with air jets from its wings, swooping and shuttling like a fighter.

The roar was deafening.

The mechanical goshawk rushed into the center of the city ruins.

When it hit the sky again, its sharp alloy claws had already grabbed the heavy vehicle wreckage, as if it was food, and disappeared into the sky at a very fast speed.

Xu Xi looked at this scene and was stunned for a long time.

Is this a Transformer that has gone off the rails, or a smart machine that has become a spirit?

Although it is a science fiction side.

But it is too abstract.

"The extinct civilized city, the wandering mechanical monster, this start is really... extra subtle."

Xu Xi spread out his hands, and light fragments came with the wind and fell squarely on his palm.

There are exquisite patterns engraved on it.

Humans ride on huge starships and sail towards the mysterious and brilliant starry sky.

The excitement and expectation are perfectly expressed through the pattern.

The desolate ruins that Xu Xi saw formed a sharp and strong contrast, which showed that the destruction of this world was quite sudden.

"Anyway, let's explore first."

"The most urgent thing is to find water and food, as well as a temporary shelter for rest."

Xu Xi set off again.

He walked on the rugged road, stepped over the corpses of people and machines, stepped crisply, and walked on the edge of an unknown city with a clear goal.

The wasteland is very dangerous.

There are wandering mechanical creations everywhere.

They are either humanoid, beast-shaped, or pure war machines.

Xu Xi even saw that those mechanical creations attacked each other, devoured each other's energy, and easily blew up reinforced concrete.

There is no doubt.

Such an environment is quite dangerous and deadly for Xu Xi.

In order to avoid wasting the number of resurrections, Xu Xi walked very carefully, and each time he would bypass the mechanical creations in advance and try to find usable weapons.

[Your small step is a big step for mankind]

[You walk on the ruins of the city, making the city welcome people again after hundreds of years]

[You are cautious and find two special guns while looking for supplies]

[The gun body material is peculiar, it is an alloy you have never seen before, even after the erosion of time, it only looks slightly yellowed]

[But you find that there seems to be a problem with the trigger of the gun, and it cannot be pulled no matter what]

[Ding——]

[Your presence makes the gun spirit very happy]

[You are surprised to find that the two guns suddenly become usable]

[Seven steps away, the gun is fast; within seven steps, The gun is accurate and fast]

[The power of the gun makes you feel a little relieved. You hold the gun carefully and continue to look for water and food]

...

[You succeeded. You found a lot of food, but unfortunately, those foods have long become inedible]

[Time wear and tear will cause most foods to deteriorate]

[Helplessly, you can only continue to search]

[After a long search, you finally found a box of perfectly sealed nutrient solution in the dark ruins of a building]

[You sighed, nutrient solution is a standard feature of most science fiction and doomsday novels, and it is a feature that time travelers have to try. Now, you have also experienced it. ]

[The nutrient solution brings you moisture and nutrients]

[Your hunger problem is solved]

[Satisfied, you start to think about your future]

[You find a basement and use it as your temporary residence. You start to actively collect all the information about this world]

[On the second day after crossing, you collect a lot of books, including preschool literacy books]

[On the third day after crossing, you are very careful, but still encounter a humanoid machine. The opponent's energy shield makes you unable to break through the defense]

[Ding——]

[The gun soul is very happy, your gun damage triggers a critical hit, causing 100 0% damage]

[You establish a subtle connection with the two guns]

[Gradually, you begin to understand the structure of the two guns, and knowledge opens up to you]

…

[Two months have passed. During this sixty-day period, you have initially mastered the common language of the new world. Through dictionary comparison, you can normally browse and view data records]

[You understand that this is a highly developed federal technological planet]

[Civilization is prosperous and human beings are strong]

[Its technological level is even higher than that of the Earth after the fusion of different worlds]

[Virtual reality technology, interstellar manned technology, anti-gravity technology, genetic enhancement technology...]

[Wonderful technology, bright future, this is a new civilization like science fiction, and it will even leave the planetary system to explore a more vast and brilliant galaxy]

[However, a disaster that can destroy civilization has also arrived at the right time]

[When all mankind cheered, the intelligent mechanical disaster suddenly came. In an instant, all the mechanical creations of human civilization rebelled and awakened, giving birth to the killing consciousness that destroyed mankind]

[No one can escape, no one has a chance to survive]

[When humans lose the technology they are proud of, all that is left is the weak flesh and blood]

[Even after genetic modification, they have a body that surpasses mortals, but in front of interstellar weapons that can destroy the world, genetic warriors are no different from mortals]

[Humans in this world seem to have completely disappeared]

[You came to this conclusion and were stunned for a long time]

"Clatter——"

"Clatter——"

In the quiet basement.

The sound of paper turning pages is very crisp.

Xu Xi's expression is solemn, and his eyes scan left and right until he finishes reading the whole book, and then he slowly closes the heavy cover.

This is a diary with a bloodstained cover.

The owner of the diary is neither a noble official nor an expert professor, but an ordinary citizen of the Federation.

From the perspective of ordinary people, it records the chaos after the rebellion of the intelligent machines and the despair of waiting for death.

"The rebellion of intelligent machines is equivalent to destroying the heart of technological civilization."

"Even the starships have rebelled and awakened..."

"Humanity has no way out..."

"I, a time traveler, may be the only living human on this planet."
