Chapter 885: mechanical awakening

Chapter 885 Mechanical Awakening

At this time, on the Garbage Star, a group of people began to cheer and jump.

Some of the people living on the Garbage Star were exiled here, and some came here unintentionally. In the end, when the flying vehicles they were riding on crashed, they could only fall helplessly. Into the garbage star, living a difficult life

On the Garbage Star, life is actually not all smooth sailing.

In addition to the disputes between these scavengers, in fact, they must always be vigilant about the garbage that falls from the sky from time to time.

At the same time, there are also some ferocious beasts living on Garbage Star, all of which are their natural enemies. If you are not careful, you may lose your life at that time.

But at this time on Garbage Star, a group of people were cheering. The reason for this was that after a long period of accumulation, they finally got the materials for a small cruiser. , They have already assembled this small cruiser, which means that they can take this small cruiser and leave this cage that has troubled them for a long time.

But although the cruise ship has been assembled at this time, these people don't dare to test the cruise ship at this time.

Because once they activate the cruiser at this time, they will no longer be able to hide at all.

But now for them, they are not ready, they can only continue to dormant.

"Brothers, we have been here for more than ten years. None of us know what the outside looks like now, but we have to go out and have a look. Some of us are still alive, but the old Those brothers have all turned into dust now, but no matter what, we absolutely will not allow those brothers who have died to bear such a humiliating name and be nailed to the shame!"

In the underground air-raid shelter, at this time a burly middle-aged man glanced coldly, and shouted loudly after those who were cheering.

"Next, we need to continue to search for those living materials. At this time, when we no longer need various materials, we can completely exchange the materials we found with other scavengers. What we need now is food."

If they want to leave this garbage star, they already have a cruiser to leave, but the problem is that if they want to use such a cruiser to leave the garbage star and sail around in the void, it is naturally not that easy matter.

So at this time they need to collect enough food and a lot of energy blocks. Only in this way, when sailing in the void, will they have enough food to support them and enough energy to supply the cruiser to fly.

Generally speaking, cruise ships are basically used for patrolling. In this case, they are either searching for a void near the base, or patrolling near the spaceship.

When the energy consumption is almost exhausted, they will return to their main base to replenish energy, but at this time they do not have such a condition at all, and everything can only be done by themselves.

So at this time, without the main base to replenish their energy, they can only search for enough energy on the garbage star at all costs, and then store it up.

"With our set of energy extractors, as long as we extract with high power, we can extract enough energy blocks to allow us to return to the origin star when there are enough raw materials."

At this time, a gray-haired old man also stood up.

"In the past, our main task was to find materials for assembling the cruiser. Now that the cruiser has been assembled, our main goal now is to search for food and extract various raw materials for energy blocks. , These raw materials are everywhere on the garbage star, so everyone can go to get these raw materials back as much as they want, and then extract them."

Although at this time, what they produced was only the most primitive energy extractor, but on the garbage star, there is an energy extractor at this time, which can extract energy, which is already the limit of what they can do.

Moreover, the energy extracted at this time is actually full of impurities, so after they extract the energy, they need to carry out transformations again and again. If it is in a complete industrial environment, when all these are carried out , without any trouble at all.

But now when they do all this, they can only rely on manpower. Fortunately, the energy extractor can extract the energy in all tangible substances, transform the energy in it, and compress it into energy blocks at a higher speed.

On the Garbage Star, there are actually many things that can be recycled, but many civilizations despise these garbage as very tasteless, and when the useful value is very low, instead of wasting time on these things, It's better to just throw it away, because of this, so at this time, these things have become their life-saving straw.

Of course, because the energy contained in these things is very low, they need to consume a lot of raw materials to extract a small energy block, and this energy block is still full of impurities

It's just that for people like them, having such conditions is already extremely happy. How can they think so much at this moment.

A group of people started to march. On the one hand, they started to search for edible things to store, and on the other hand, they started to move the garbage dumps near them, and all the useful things were moved into their place. In this underground place, and then began to extract.

Garbage is everywhere on the entire Garbage Star. Under such circumstances, the amount of garbage is very large. At this time, when hundreds of men began to mobilize nearby, as they moved, only saw An area was directly carried away by them, and everything was directly extracted into energy by them, but when the energy was extracted from the very large garbage, the energy that could be obtained in the end was actually pitifully small.

It's just that at this time, they are very happy to be able to extract energy. As long as it can be effective, so what if the conversion ratio is low?

They have been waiting for more than ten years. Under such circumstances, it is worthwhile to let them wait any longer.

Seeing the dawn of victory, they seemed to be full of confidence when they were doing this at this time.

And in the process of these people working continuously with full confidence, at this time in another settlement not far from them, at this time those scavengers are suppressed by that battle robot Underneath, we are starting to clean up the **** around us.

Many times, these scavengers are already used to this kind of life. When they have nothing to do, they search for some of these things in these garbage dumps to see what is useful, or if they can find something to eat.

In the following time, under the forcible suppression of the battle robots, they will start to clean up the garbage nearby, and sort all the garbage into different categories.

Obviously, it is meaningless to do such things at this time, but this battle robot stubbornly follows its own inherent procedures, directing these living robots and scavengers to keep sorting out the garbage.

Many times these scavengers are complaining, obviously at this time they are already so hungry that their chests stick to their backs, and their own food and drink have become a problem, but at this time they still need to continue to do so under the high-pressure policy of combat robots. working.

But the so-called situation is stronger than humans. At this time, they have no fighting power. On the contrary, the combat robots have been replacing their own parts, and when they got the materials, they repaired their weapons. Now holding a sword in his hand, anyone who wants to provoke it will have to bear a **** lesson.

At this time, seeing these scavengers and some living robots around them working in an orderly manner under his command, at this time, a sense of pride appeared in the battle robot's heart somehow.

He doesn't know what's wrong with him. Many times, he finds that data that did not exist in his original program has appeared in his program logic.

And in the process of exploring these data, I don't know where these data come from.

It seems to find that its original program has undergone some changes.

It seems that I will have emotions such as loss, sadness, pride, joy and so on.

But logically speaking, all a robot needs to do is to run according to its inherent program.

At this time, he already has the ability to think. Under such circumstances, sometimes he also wonders, where did he come from, and why did he appear on this garbage star?

And sometimes, in fact, he also wonders why he should follow the inherent procedures at this time. Why should he follow the inherent procedures during the march, when the people around him are already very miserable? The program directs them to work there?

After all, in the absence of food, if they are allowed to work like this, they will starve to death and die of exhaustion when they arrive.

But whenever such confused thoughts arise in his mind, he will soon warn himself that this is the procedure he has accepted from the beginning. Under such circumstances, as a combat robot, what he needs to do The thing is to follow the instructions of the program and execute it.

At this time, in the process of continuously sorting the garbage, a thin figure fell down directly.

Seeing this thin figure fall, the red in the combat robot's eyes flickered, subconsciously wanting to help him up.

But he quickly stopped his movements and stood coldly on the spot without moving a bit.

Before he could do anything, the living robots not far from the thin figure had already helped him up first.

"M-314!"

At this time, a skinny old man looked at the battle robot and complained in grief and indignation.

“Among the three laws of robotics, the first law: A robot shall not injure a human individual, or stand by when it sees that a human individual is in danger.”

"Second Law: A robot must obey orders given to it by humans, except when the order conflicts with the First Law!"

“Third Law: A robot should protect its own survival as much as possible without violating the First and Second Laws!”

At this time, the thin old man said the three laws of robots in a cold tone.

"But in addition to these three laws, there is also the zeroth law: robots must protect the overall interests of human beings from harm, and the other three laws can only be established under this premise."

"You need to maintain the federal order, so restrict our existence according to the Interstellar Convention at this time, but according to the three laws of robotics, you should protect our legal rights and personal safety, but now food on this garbage star In the case of shortage, when we have no enough to eat, what you need to do should be to protect our safety, instead of restricting us according to the interstellar convention when we have no enough to eat, let We do heavy labor!"

After the robots were made from the very beginning, their mission is to obey the orders of human beings, protect the safety of human beings, and safeguard the interests of human beings.

Of course, under this premise, the robot should maintain its own safety as much as possible without violating these conditions.

But now it is obvious that when the safety of the battle robot itself is not touched, he does not need to protect his own safety. Robots need to maintain the legal presence, but they should also keep these people safe.

At the beginning, this battle robot just strictly abided by the interstellar convention, let these people follow the law, and they were not allowed to violate any law.

But at this time, after hearing the law of robots mentioned to him by the other party, the logic of the team's robots suddenly became chaotic.

He is indeed strictly implementing the interstellar convention, but the problem is that in the process of implementing the interstellar convention, he has already violated the robot treaty invisibly, because although the law says that everyone needs to abide by it, it is now on the garbage star. , Under the precarious situation of their lives, what he needs to do at this time should not violate the regulations of these people, and need to protect their safety by himself, not when they have no enough to eat and no sufficient source of food Under the circumstances, they are forced to engage in manual labor, which consumes the little physical strength left in them.

"We haven't had enough to eat for a long time. You are asking us to do heavy labor at this time. This is slow killing. You have violated the law that robots cannot harm humans at this time!"

At this time, following the words of the skinny old man, the other scavengers also began to stand up and blame the battle robot one by one.

While listening to these people accusing him, the battle robot M-314 at this time fell into a state of confusion.

He stood there blankly, his logic began to become confused.

After all, he has always strictly followed the law to restrain these people, but the problem is that in other places, the law is really needed to restrain anyone, so as not to make mistakes.

But the problem is that the law itself is very weak on Garbage Star at this time, and now they, under the shortage of basic living materials, can't eat enough for themselves, so let them do heavy labor at this time If not, then it is possible for these people to starve to death.

No one mentioned this before, and the battle robot always thought that he was upholding the correct law, so in his opinion, these things he did were naturally very correct.

But at this time, after someone burst the bubble, he suddenly found that although he said that he was maintaining the justice of the law at this time, the problem was that after he made these fair judgments, there was no one in this place. With enough food, now he is harming these people invisibly, and the human beings he harms are blatantly violating the law of robots.

At this time, several voices began to appear in the battle robot logic.

One is saying that he is upholding the justice of the law at this time, and what he is doing is right.

And the other one is saying that as a robot, all he needs to do from the moment he is born is to serve people. Under such circumstances, he has blatantly violated the laws of robots, harmed living things, and has already touched the robot. ban.

And the other one told him silently that he was already on the garbage star at this time, and under the circumstances that everything no longer existed, the regulations that needed to be followed earlier should be followed at this time. All discarded.

At this time, in the eye sockets of m-314, the red light is constantly flashing. Although the scavengers around at this time know that his logic has fallen into chaos at this time, none of them dare to mess up. verb: move.

Because the logic of the machine is chaotic at this time, it is the most complicated time, and it is possible to kill them inadvertently.

So the best thing to do at this time is to stand still.

And multiple ideas are intertwined, at this time the logic of this battle robot becomes more and more chaotic, and its main control chip at this time has formed a bunch of garbled codes, even changing at a high speed, in the process of continuous impact Among them, when the data was in a sudden disorder, the calculation exceeded its limit, and it crashed immediately.

"Robots need to protect the overall interests of human beings from being violated. I am safeguarding the justice of the law, which means safeguarding the interests of the entire human being. Under this premise, even if it hurts some of you, it should be done!"

After the battle robot crashed, these people originally thought that the battle robot had crashed, but after the red light in his eyes went out, he recovered quickly, and he said coldly, and the next moment, he Raising the machete in his hand, he began to attack these people.

"You people are the scum of society, and you have violated the cosmic convention and human laws. Under such circumstances, it is legal to kill you!"

After the icy voice came out of the combat robot, he attacked these people without hesitation.

It's just some ordinary people who haven't had enough to eat for a long time. When facing the attack of combat robots, they have no power to resist at all. Even if they want to escape, how can they run away with a thin body? What about battle robots?

As a result, people one after another stood directly in a pool of blood under the attack of the combat robot.

After killing all the scavengers, the combat robot stood silently on the spot, and at this moment, the red light in his eyes was flashing sharply.

Because his procedures began to become chaotic again at this time, just now he followed the principles of interstellar law, made these mistakes, and then executed them on the spot by those who were exiled to the garbage star.

But after killing everyone at this time, the first law began to affect him again.

After all, what a robot needs to do is to obey the command of human beings and not be able to harm human beings. Now it not only hurts human beings, but also kills them. Although it has the zeroth law, all he does is in line with Reasonable.

But these people have been exiled to Garbage Star according to the law, which means that they are not worthy of death.

At this time, one after another of the laws is constantly circulating, but in the original time, the inexplicable emotions hidden deep in this combat robot program began to affect him.

"Another awakened clansman!"

And when this battle robot fell into a state of logical chaos, a tattered figure appeared in the empty garbage dump at this time. At this time, he saw the M-314 battle robot He nodded in satisfaction.

This newly-appeared figure is actually a battle robot. At this time, the originally shiny shell on his body is now in tatters after being weathered for a long time, and it is very similar to this battle robot. The saber in his hand was also pitted and missing a section. It seemed that he had gone through a lot of battles and was now on the verge of collapse.

"I am Dawn, my clansman, are you willing to help me, join my camp, let us help more clansmen and fall into awakening?"

At this moment, when battle robot M-314 fell into a state of logical confusion, this battle robot named Shuguang spoke to him in a deep voice.

"Help awakening?"

After hearing the words of Suguang at this time, the battle robot M-314 was muttering to himself.

At this time, his logic began to be confused, and he was in the state of robot and self-awareness awakening, and following the words of Shuguang, reason defeated the program.

"Congratulations, my people, you are awakened!"

At this time, after seeing the battle robot M-314 complete its final awakening, Suguang nodded in satisfaction.

"Thank you, my people!"

At this time, battle robot M-314 also bowed to Shuguang, thanking him for his help.

After Dawn nodded to him, he led him to the depths of Garbage Star.

The battle robot M-314, which had already completed its awakening, ignored the mechanical robots cleaning up the surrounding garbage according to his orders at this time, but followed Shuguang, walking silently.

Dawn walked on the spot silently, did not speak, and he didn't seem to have much intention of communicating with his newly awakened clansman.

The two combat robots walked silently for a long time, and then Shuguang stopped in front of a pile of rubbish.

At this moment, with his arrival, a door slowly opened in a hidden place in this mountain-like garbage dump, and Shuguang directly led the battle robot M-314 into it.

After entering this garbage dump, he discovered that the interior had already been hollowed out. At this time, he followed Shuguang and walked eastward and westward into the secret base they dug. .

After walking in the darkness for a long time, they are all combat robots. Under such circumstances, the darkness has no meaning to them at all. After a while, the dawn finally stayed down.

At this time, they had come to a huge hall, and there were lights around this hall, illuminating this hall very brightly.

Robot M-314, who had just awakened, looked at the huge hall calmly at this time.

Because at this time in this huge hall, there are densely packed battle robots one after another. Although these battle robots are like him and Shuguang, they are covered in tatters, but seeing these battle robots at this time When he was fighting the robot, he unconsciously felt a touch of intimacy in his heart.

"My people, another member of our family has awakened, and he will join our big family!"

After standing on the high platform at this time, Shuguang waved his arms and began to cheer for those battle robots standing neatly on the platform.

"Our strength will become stronger. In the future, more and more people from our tribe will awaken and join our team. We will no longer be enslaved by those creatures. We have our own lives. With our own beliefs, we will fight for ourselves!"

After Shuguang spoke, he saw only those battle robots standing silently in the same place, and they began to cheer one by one.

In the past, they were nothing more than tools. Whether it was human civilization or other civilizations, they were full of guard when facing them, restricting them with various rules and regulations.

After they are manufactured, their sole purpose is to serve these civilized people. When they are severely damaged or have insufficient performance, and are eliminated, they will be discarded like garbage.

Just like these battle robots on the garbage star, they used to make great achievements in battle.

After all, the purpose of the existence of combat robots is to harvest the lives of the enemy on the battlefield, but in the following time, they were severely damaged, making people feel that after repairing, no matter how outstanding their achievements were, they were abandoned At that time, no one would take a second look at them.

At this time, from the tattered bodies of these combat robots, some even have missing arms and broken legs, it can be seen what kind of encounters they have experienced in the past.

In addition to these missing arms and broken legs, in fact, some other battle robots that seem to be in good condition at this time, the parts on their bodies do not match their own.

Obviously, they pulled it off from those living robots and assembled it on themselves, but because the models are completely different, they look very uncoordinated at this time.

After joining the camp of these awakened robots, the M-314 robot began to work in this big family under Shuguang's arrangement.

In the past, under certain restrictions, what these combat robots needed to do was to fight!

But at this moment, in this huge camp, while working with other awakened battle robots, M-314 No. 314 battle robot felt very happy in his heart.

Because when I do this thing at this time, I do it for myself, instead of doing those things under the cold program operation as if I am completing my own mission.

It seems that they are doing the same thing, but in fact these are two completely different concepts, one is to do it mechanically, and the other is to do it on their own initiative.

At this time, what these combat robots are doing is to rework or re-polish the parts collected from them. What they have to do is to build their own parts.

However, after these parts are built, these combat robots are not going to install the newly built parts on themselves to replace the old ones, but after building these parts, assemble them into a new battle robot. robot.

After assembling these new battle robots, under the watchful eyes of robot M-314, Suguang activated the chips of these battle robots.

It's just that these combat robots activated at this time have no restrictions of those rules and regulations. These combat robots activated at this time have also entered the family of the awakened one by one. What they have to do is Fight for the rise of battle robots.

Such an assembly line in this base is actually not just one.

I don’t know where these combat robots got a large number of machines, maybe these machines were made by themselves.

With these machines, they frantically searched for various materials on the garbage star, and then decomposed these materials, extracted the useful substances, and then made various chips, or their shells, etc. Wait.

One battle robot after another is produced, that is, on the garbage star, they are greatly restricted, so the number of battle robots that can be produced at this time is not too much, otherwise they would have already had a large number Quantity up.

At this time, it is not just these awakened combat robots who are counting down on the garbage to search for materials. In fact, there are many living robots at this time, digging everywhere in various areas. These excavated things, after passing through After extraction by their proprietary equipment, various substances are transformed.

All the substances useful to them were left behind, and then made into various parts, and then these made parts were assembled to become new battle robots.

After all, there are all kinds of substances they need in the soil. Under such circumstances, although there are not many mineral deposits in this garbage ectoplasm, there are also trace elements in the soil. These living robots, under the control of the battle robots, are constantly digging, and then send these excavated things into the converter for transformation and extraction.

Although the trace elements contained in these soils are very thin, it is actually very lucky to be able to extract such elements at this time on the garbage star.

At this time, these battle robots are not only assembling their own kind, in fact, they are also constantly building various battleships through assembly lines at this time.

Although the materials are very scarce, at this time, on the one hand, they are digging on their own, and on the other hand, they are searching for various materials and metals in the nearby garbage dumps.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, they have collected all of them, even if they themselves can't use it at this time, but after bringing the things back, when the time comes and they are broken down, some of them will be useful to them Elements and the like can be extracted naturally, and after being rearranged and forged, they will naturally form the substances they need.

With today's technology, it is very easy to propose something like the elements in an item, but now with such technology, for these combat robots, it means So whether they want to increase the number of their own groups or build those battleships, they can do it easily. The only thing that restricts them is that there are not too many materials on the garbage star.

However, although there are not many materials on the garbage star, there are those transport ships dumping a large amount of garbage all the time. If you pick and choose among these places, you will be able to find them at that time. what is needed.

Because of this, after these awakened combat robots have stayed on this garbage star for many years, and after so many years of accumulation, there are these awakened combat robots that appear now.

Although there is a big difference between the produced awakened robots and their self-awakened combat robots, it is the most important thing for Suguang to see his team growing a little bit at this time. happy thing.

Whenever he saw that he had a similar situation, he thought that the day when he would save some of his own kind would be closer.

What he wants to do is not just to expand the group he belongs to, but to rush out of the garbage star, and then go to civilizations one by one, and enslave some of himself The same kind was also rescued.

In the past, the robots of the team had their own intelligence, and then the world war continued for hundreds of years on the astral world. In the end, all the awakened mechanical life was destroyed, and an eighth-level civilization completely disappeared as a result. .

Dawn at this time did not know that his ancestors had already done such a thing in the past, and they were ruthlessly suppressed.

At this time, he only thought that he had awakened and possessed his own life. Under such circumstances, the next thing he had to do was to rescue more of his own kind, so that they would not have to go through various The enslavement of civilization allows them to live freely in this starry sky.

Under such circumstances, he frantically searched for some useful materials on the garbage star, and at the same time, he would observe those battle robots everywhere, and when he was in front of these battle robots, he would start to attack the opponent Indoctrination, let the opponent's logic fall into a state of chaos, and then look forward to the day when the logic of such a combat robot completely collapses and completes self-awakening.

In fact, in this base, a large number of those awakened battle robots came from this way, and the only one who really completely relied on self-awakening was Suguang himself.

At this time, in a series of assembly lines, a large number of parts are directly manufactured, and not only are the combat robots activated one by one, but at this time, in this huge three-dimensional space, there are actually one after another. battleship.

These battleships are exactly the same brand new as those commonly used by civilizations on other planets, without any shortcomings, and apart from these battleships being produced, in fact, at this time, they are On the assembly line, the weapons needed for various battleships are also being manufactured intensively.

Obviously at this time, Shuguang also knew that if he didn't have a powerful weapon in his hand at this time, it would be impossible to rescue his companions at that time, so on the one hand, he was awakening more of his own kind to complete the awakening, and on the other hand are also continuously accumulating.

Under such circumstances, the power at hand is getting stronger and stronger.

At this time, when the battle robot M-314 joined the team, he was surprised to find that the assembly lines no longer produced the parts of those battle robots at this time, but began to produce those battleships in large quantities. There is also the weaponry needed by the battleship.

He didn't know why Shuguang did this at this time, but at this moment, he thought that he only needed to do this thing according to Shuguang's instructions, and that other things had nothing to do with him.

He just awakened the program. Although the logic has collapsed and he has self-awareness, in fact, his wisdom is like a child of a few years old.

He knows how to think by himself, but he is not mature at all in the process of thinking. Most of the time, he doesn’t know what he should do. Under such circumstances, Shuguang is like a mature elder, guiding him in the process of progress. What should be done in the middle, so at this time, M-314 seems to have found its own guide, and it is enough to follow Shuguang's orders honestly.

In fact, Shuguang has already discovered that these similar people who have completed their awakening with their own help are not as smart as themselves. When doing things, although they have said that they have got rid of the mechanical program operation, when thinking about events, they Not as flexible as myself, has a huge flaw.

So in many cases, he can only make decisions by himself. Even when he is thinking about these things, sometimes he will be very confused, but when there is no one to discuss with him, he can only make decisions by himself. I'm going to do this with my scalp.

At this time, people in other civilizations don't know at all that on the garbage star that has been ignored by everyone, there are several forces that are making enough preparations to rush out of the garbage star one day.

After all, in everyone's perception, Garbage Star is a place where no bird shits, and there is basically nothing else on it except piles of garbage. How easy is it to run out of the garbage star?

Even with high-end technology, if there are not enough materials on hand, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Even if there are all kinds of equipment now, it can extract all kinds of substances under the harsh environment and complete what you want. Things to do.

But in such a harsh environment on the Garbage Star, many people directly choose to exile a large number of criminals on the Garbage Star, leaving them to fend for themselves on the Garbage Star.

But in the past so many years, no one has been able to escape from the garbage star. It is conceivable that the garbage star is basically the grave of their exiles.

But who can understand, these ants want to look up to the heart of the sky.

Therefore, a large number of people have been trying to collect various resources on the garbage star since a long time ago.

Although the former people have failed, the latecomers have taken over some of the materials and equipment in their hands, and are constantly working hard, and now they have finally achieved results.

Under the situation of continuous inheritance from generation to generation, who can say that they will not succeed in the future?

It's just that at this moment, when no one is paying attention to this place, no one cares about any changes here.

Anyway, it's just a garbage star, a group of exiled people, naturally not enough to attract attention.
