Chapter 109

Episode 109. Dragonic lab (9)

Mecha dragon PX-4889’s powerful forepaws hit the lab wall.

Aaaaaaaaagh!

PX-4889 howled through the rising dust.

Big la la la la la la la la la!

why did you cry

It’s because there was no ‘hand taste’.

As the Mecha Dragon shook its head in search of its escaped target, a wild wind blew into PX-4889’s body.

stormy wind.

An attack that any living creature would have felt threatened and avoided or defended against.

PX-4889 withstood Ran’s wind tricks without moving.

No, the wind had no effect on the body of PX-4889, to the extent that it is regrettable to say that it endured.

“also. It’s solid.”

Ran frowned.

“Because I wasn’t aiming for a hit in the first place.”

PX-4889’s yellow vertical pupils flashed as it spotted its prey.

The moment when the huge steel torso is about to attack Ran.

rattle.

PX-4889’s massive fuselage suddenly comes to a halt.

This is because he found an image that was unacceptable to his yellow pupil.

It was the corpses of dragons scattered around.

Some of the dragons, who were preparing for a counterattack in case the sun invaded the lab, waited by sticking to the wall and were swept away by PX-4889’s attack.

Upon discovering the scene, PX-4889’s artificial intelligence immediately calculated the course of the accident.

1st cause.

During the pursuit of Player Ran, the players took the lab hostage.

PX-4889’s artificial intelligence recognized that there were many dragons in the lab and withdrew its breath.

In the process, player Yoon Tae-yang and three other players recognized that Yongin could be used as a strategic weapon.

secondary cause.

He reacted excessively to player Yoon Tae-yang who took out a lightsaber.

Tertiary cause and effect.

PX-4889, caught up in player Taeyang Yoon’s ‘Strategic Demonstration’, cast a ‘Paw Claw Slam’ targeting Player Taeyang Yoon.

As a result, five Yongin who were swept away by the secondary damage were killed, twelve Yongin were seriously injured, and two Yongin suffered minor injuries.

Deuk. hard. Hard.

After completing the calculations, PX-4889’s eyes blinked red, and parts of its body began to vibrate.

PX-4889 is stuck in an ‘error’ state.

Ran muttered in a trembling voice.

“That absurd strategy of the sun... ... Was it successful?”

At least in Ran’s eyes, it appeared to be a success.

The massive steel body of PX-4889 was so intimidating that it was shaking like a tic-disordered lizard.

-Wow, you clear this like this?

-ᄉᄉ Do you have to study coding to break it?

– What kind of coding are you studying? This is just common sense.

-? Program blah blah code instruction conflict blah. Is this common sense?

– (I don’t know roughly, but I’m pretending to know).

-This was broken with a real sense play. Yoon Taeyang has also grown.

– The growth of ‘Trust’. Even intelligence has risen. Is it the birth of a ‘whole body’?

– Yes.

At the moment of crisis, Taeyang, who escaped through the dust gate opened by Salomon, smiled.

“Look. This is an S+-class operation.”

-nice. it was good.

“It was not a bad ploy. It was definitely an excellent choice to be with you.”

Taeyang and Salomon crossed their palms.

Rossi asked, looking up at the intermittently vibrating PX-4889.

“Are you done?”

The sun shook its head.

“No, it can’t end like this.”

I had to think rationally.

The weapon PX-4889 created by the dragons was a very high-level weapon.

“It is said that it is mixed with magic, but I have not yet been able to create a combat AI that judges like PX-4889 on Earth.”

– Might have made it. maybe we don’t know

“Anyway, it hasn’t actually been commercialized.”

Yongin’s artificial intelligence technology has surpassed that of Earth.

And the likelihood that such a program would be incapacitated to such an extent as a crash command crash was remarkably low.

There was also the possibility of fixing the problem by finding the twisted code in the program itself, and most of all, the PX-4889’s program didn’t crash.

“This is most likely just a lag.”

PX-4889 was apparently moving.

The program isn’t down at all.

This is because the command ‘You cannot ignore a tolerance in danger’ is embedded in the behavioral algorithm.

So, PX-4889 launched an attack on the subject of the problem, the sun, to save the dragon.

In fact, an artificial intelligence of PX-4889 level should have been able to choose a method other than an attack in this process.

And under normal circumstances, he would not have chosen to attack.

I would have kept the ‘situation in which Yongin suffered damage’ as much as possible.

However, the research director’s order to ‘maximize aggression’ limited PX-4889’s options to ‘attack’.

PX-4889’s attacks, which were weakened thanks to Rossi and Ran’s ice dukes, were perfectly ‘accepted’ under the control of the sun, and then PX-4889 fell into an error state again.

The two women, who had made a fuss out of anxiety at first, were sitting on the hind legs of the PX-4889 with a calm expression on their faces, probably feeling that they were safe now.

Ran, who was talking with Rossi, spotted the sun and shouted.

“sun!”

“why?”

“Can we just wait like this?”

“no. Wait until an hour or so remains, and if this happens repeatedly, you have to forcefully break it.”

“Why?”

“Achievements aren’t something you have to eat.”

Tuung.

The rising sun rose to the bridge of PX-4889’s nose.

devastated stage.

The dragons hiding everywhere and only paying attention to the sun.

The sun sitting on the head of the steel dragon and looking down with a sad face was like a king looking down on a conquered land.

***

Apparently, it was a test that went as far as allowing separate transactions with the six demon lords.

The goal is to kill Taeyang Yoon.

The situation on the stage was reflected in Balak’s pupils.

Conversely, dragons being hunted by the sun.

Quadduk.

The chest and head are hot at the same time.

It was the most intense anger I had felt in almost a hundred years.

But instead of venting his anger, Balak got up.

Because there was something I had to do first.

As the stage continues, more dragons will only be sacrificed.

The stage had to be finished with the authority of the Demon King.

“For now, the test is over. will you all admit it? Yoon Taeyang clearly cleared the Dragonic Lap stage. No need to see more play... ... .”

“no.”

It was Dantalian who interrupted Balak.

“The test is not over. If you forcefully finish the stage now, the four players will not receive the achievements they deserve.”

“Achievements should be given separately. There are enough examples like that.”

It was also what Chimeries did on the Endless Express stage.

It wasn’t common for the demon king to give away achievements to protect the stage, but it happened often.

Dantalian nodded and smiled.

“Is that possible? If you quit now, the achievements to be paid will be considerable.”

The way players obtain achievements can be roughly divided into two categories.

When the conditions set by the ‘floor owner’ are fulfilled.

When the causal rate of the dimensional labyrinth judges the player’s actions and the score exceeds a certain level.

In both cases, the sun destroyed PX-4889 and there were at least 5 achievements to be gained.

“Balak. There is no problem with you granting achievements to player Taeyang Yoon, but it becomes a problem if the number exceeds 5.”

It was not uncommon for the Demon King to grant alternative achievements.

Even more so if the number goes beyond 5.

This meant that there was a big event on that stage, and if that happened, there was a high possibility that attention would be drawn.

Balak glared at Dantalian with sad eyes.

Dantalian didn’t care and continued.

“Editing is useless if you get caught in the eyes of meticulous devils like Baal, Bassago, and Amon. It also means that your dogma is exposed regardless of what we say.”

At Dantalian’s words, the rest of the demon lords whispered.

“That doesn’t bother us either. You will be stigmatized for condoning your tyranny.”

“I’m not going to notice you, but you know what? I hate that.”

“I’m already fed up with how much you’ll bother people around me when word goes around that I made a deal with you.”

Balak gnashed his teeth.

“Did you agree with this idea from the beginning?”

“You think this? Ah, I’m not interested in the lives of dragons, just.”

Dantalian observed the solar power objectively for quite some time.

Taeyang knew how to create variables and creatively solve problems.

“I knew that your third test wouldn’t kill player Yun Taeyang.”

Balak’s anger finally exploded on Dantalian’s white smile.

Whoa!

In an instant, a dimensional door opened that physically connected the Demon King’s auditorium and the Dragonic Lab Stage.

Balak’s arm changes to that of a dragon.

Aaaaaang!

A fist of enormous mass struck beyond the dimensional door.
