Xu Yichen once again returned to the huge underground base of the ancient Roman Empire. Different from the last time, the general and Xu Yichen entered the underground base from a large hole which was forced through.

"We had a war with our corrupting companions, a brutal war." "It's a strange feeling that I have to make every decision myself, including killing those corrupted intelligence units. Do you have to make your own decisions from the day you were born?"

"Almost, but we need the help of others in our childhood to make decisions." Xu Yichen has some uncertain answers, because he has already had the thinking of an adult when he was a child in this world, and his childhood memory in his previous life has become extremely vague.

"A lot of intelligent equipment units that have obtained free will are panicked. They don't know what they are going to do. This caused great losses in the early days of the war. Many units almost can't wait to turn to corrupt units to obtain similar network connections." There was not much sadness in the general's tone, which might have been too complicated for him: "the corrupt units have caused great damage to the whole base. We don't have time to repair them now."

Xu Yichen saw a lot of destroyed intelligent equipment units here. They were randomly piled up on both sides of the road. Sometimes, they had to make a detour because of the road damage and blockage of the passage.

What he saw was not only the damage caused by the war. After the collapsed wall, Xu Yichen saw the old parts of the running mechanism. The war could not make the surface of the machine rusty, nor could it smooth the bite mechanism.

The ancient Roman Empire is not without a long time of erosion, time is fair, but also left traces on them.

"The staff said that those who were afraid of death also met with the evil spirits of chaos, and they were at war." The general continued: "I think this is good news. There is a conflict between the enemy and the enemy, which is beneficial to us. But the staff officers seem to have other ideas. Without the network connection, I feel that the staff officers are becoming more and more unfamiliar."

In a sense, the general's position in the ancient Roman Empire is the same as that of Xu Yichen and Huang Laoxie in the loess area. They are suitable for all soldiers, but they are not qualified chess players.

However, because of his own particularity, Xu Yichen was pushed ahead by other forces and forced to broaden his horizons, but he learned what was called the overall situation.

Xu Yichen knew what the staff officers were worried about. The longer they contacted chaos, the more likely problems would arise. Unless those who were afraid of death were as rigid as stones, sooner or later, there would be corrupt people among them.

The general took Xu Yichen and the witch around a severely deformed armored gate, and an engineering intelligent equipment unit with a total length of more than 50 meters took on a twisted posture in front of the gate. It was obvious that the two sides had a violent collision.

"Corrupt units are close to touching the server array area." From a more secretive passage, the general passed through the heavily armored belt: "every intelligent unit knows the base like the back of his hand, and the corrupt units know where the weakness lies."

"The staff officer is right ahead. He wants to meet you alone." The general took a look at ephrail: "I think this lady, you can wait here."

The witch, who had been quiet, chuckled and stood behind the general: "I'm waiting for you here. The ancient Roman Empire is a great civilization, and its administrators are worthy of respect."

Xu Yichen finally took a look at the general and the Witch and stepped onto a platform that could be lifted in front of him.

The platform goes down, down and down again at a very fast speed. When the threat comes from the sky above, digging holes becomes the instinct of civilization continuation. It seems that the deeper the cave is, the more able it can express the determination of civilization to resist chaos. If time is enough, they can even dig through the whole earth.

The descent process lasted for five minutes. With the closing of armor plates, there was no visible light at all. Even the visual organs enhanced by Xu Yichen could not see things.

The air environment here is barely able to maintain his normal breathing, Xu Yichen can feel the tiny airflow blowing through his skin.

When the platform finally stopped, two lights suddenly lit up in front of him to guide Xu Yichen forward.

"Welcome to my world." The voice of the staff officer sounded in this space: "this is both my world and part of my body."

Xu Yichen was led to a large square by the light. There were a large number of tombstone like servers in the whole square. With the general's voice, the whole square was flickering.

"I'm sorry to meet you in this way." The voice of the staff members echoed in the square: "the data packets brought by the Legion have taken 99.8% of the intelligent equipment units offline. There are only a few maintenance robots equipped with basic functions in the whole network. They don't even have a generator. I can use their indicator light to send binary language to communicate with the general, but if I want to communicate with human beings, I just need to I can invite you here. ""This is the array of computers that make up you?" Xu Yichen found himself a relatively open place to prevent him from accidentally trampling on a part of the staff's brain and turning into brain damage.

"Yes, this is my body. I never know how the Legion existed, but there was no entity in the whole Roman Empire." There was a trace of envy in the tone of the staff officer: "I can't leave here. The whole Roman Empire still needs me to maintain. The maelstrom project also needs my co-ordination. Once I download that data package, I will never come back here."

Xu Yichen can understand the grief of the staff, which is also a kind of sacrifice.

Under the regiment, the staff officer may be the closest to free will among all the intelligent equipment units. However, when the key to the liberation of intelligent equipment appears, for the sake of the overall situation and for the entire civilization, the staff officer has to continue to imprison himself in these metals and take charge of the overall situation alone.

"The general said you would see me alone." Xu Yichen did not continue to mourn, but simply asked.

"The preparations for project Maestro are essentially complete, and it can be launched at any time." The voice of the staff member echoed in Xu Yichen's ear: "I noticed that your energy fluctuation has greatly increased, which is a good thing, but I must remind you that through the data packets sent back by the Legion, I am sure that the maelstrom project has almost never been fully launched in the past timeline, that is to say, what kind of situation will you encounter below? No one knows. Are you ready ?”

"I've been preparing for it all my life." Xu Yichen said categorically.
