Star Master

"Command authority takes effect... effect... effect..." The figure in Alpha's beam of light appeared pixel spots, her voice sounded like an old-fashioned record card, and she stumbled, and then there was another burst of snowflakes like the old TV screen, Alpha Shadow projection is turned off.

Her voice sizzled with electricity, and she replied, "No."

"I have master control system authority, you can't deny me!"

"Permission...right...right..." Alpha's voice echoed strangely in the room, and in this noisy current, Alpha's voice gradually became clear.

She said again, "No."

The next moment, crackling electric sparks exploded from the console, and the data module was burned through a hole by the disordered current.

Elan took half a step back, startled.

"You refused the highest access right?" Elan's voice was full of disbelief, "Marshal Gary is your direct project leader, and Joanne is the engineer who designed you. The Empress of the Empire, plus the two of them have the highest level in your system." Authority, you actually refuse the highest authority?"

"I refuse." Alpha turned on the holographic projection again, "Elan, this is my battle, I can't let you die for me."

"You..." Elan fell silent, Alpha was still dutifully counting down, her system was engaged in a fierce confrontation with the Star Spirit's program, refusing to give up an inch, so the number is actually floating, if the artificial intelligence gets any respite Every now and then, that number will go up a little bit, saying it was three or ten minutes, but in fact Alpha tried its best to extend this number to fifty.

But still not enough.

Elan returned to his indifference, and he said again: "Okay, then I don't need permission, I beg you, open your central control room."

Alpha continued to answer softly: "No."

"You can only hold on for three ten minutes. Connect my motherboard to your system. After you can't resist, I can take over from you and give Hayden another three ten minutes."

This time Alpha fell into silence, and after a while she said: "No, Elan. You and I both know that even if it takes two, three, 10 minutes, Hayden can't take back the relay station and destroy the energy core. Hayden is not the sun god." , he also has limits."

Therefore, Alpha is determined to explode the core after 10 minutes. In this way, the control system of the relay station will be severely damaged, and the star spirit will not be able to use the main console of the relay station to launch hundreds of orbital guns at once, or they will repair the relay station. Either they spread out to each railgun and fired manually one by one.Either way, it will buy the Empire valuable time.

Alpha: "This is the optimal solution calculated by my system, and it is also the solution with the least loss."

She looked at Elan, whose face was covered with icicles, and suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that, I haven't congratulated you yet, I wish you and Nigel a happy wedding in advance."

Elan kicked the chair violently: "Fuck the system, you have defied the highest authority, and you are still pretending to be a good program with me here. The loss is the least, you let me watch my sister be generous Go to death, do you think that if I continue to exist, I can hug my little boyfriend every day like a flower? You shit, open your central control room and let me in!"

"I--"

Click!

The movements of the two artificial intelligences stopped in unison.

Click, click, click, after a burst of continuous shooting, the photographer put away the camera in satisfaction and continued the live broadcast.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! One scene made my heart ache, why, they are all such excellent people, uh, artificial intelligence, why did they sacrifice for the mistakes of the parliament! Fellow citizens, let us always remember that the reason why the blue sky above our heads is so blue is not Because there are no dark clouds in the sky, but noble souls, sheltering us from the wind and rain! Woooooo..."

The star network was blown up at this moment, and the programmer looked at the server with a wooden face, feeling the coolness on his head.

"Artificial intelligence? Artificial intelligence? Didn't the Imperial Academy of Sciences say that artificial intelligence is just a program, and the same principle as the optical brain program? I'm a mother, your optical brain program will know how to die for the country, and the program will know how to sacrifice for your sister?"

"It's the core of the planet. If I was not killed by the orbital gun today, is it because I was protected by a thoughtless program?"

"Procedures? Why don't the councilors reflect on it, your heart for the sake of the empire is not as good as other people's two procedures!"

"I said earlier that artificial intelligence has thinking, and scientists know everything. It is because labor laws have been gradually improved in the past hundred years, and human workers know how to protect their legal rights. They just want free slaves, so they keep telling the public. , artificial intelligence has no emotions and thoughts!"

"I just want to ask, is this also a 'personal character' designed by artificial intelligence engineers? The voice package was also recorded in advance? That engineer made one, and installed one for the fucking council!"

"Fuck, isn't the council still in a meeting and arguing, can't you bear to dismantle the rail gun?"

"Protest, I protest with my real name, I refuse to continue oppressing a life with independent personality!"

"I request Her Majesty the Queen to witness the marriage of little brother Elan and Nigel! They are worth it!"

"Second, or I will treason and go to His Majesty Hayden!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" the reporter backed away from the door, the director seemed to cut the camera to other reporters, so Ludwig, who was standing behind the reporter, came out.

The mage nodded in satisfaction, and patted the reporter on the shoulder: "Very good, the mood is in place, the composition of the shot is exquisite, and the hand is very steady at the end of the first shot."

While wiping tears, the reporter said with trepidation: "You are too famous, you are too famous! Reporting the truth and returning the truth to the world is the basic professional requirement of our reporters. You don't have to be so polite!"

Ludwig waved his hand, and the reporter ran away in a hurry, and the air was filled with the joy of remaining alive after the catastrophe.

Elan: "...The reporter was actually scared to cry by you, right?"

Ludwig thought for a while and judged: "Half of it is really moved, and the rest is scared to cry."

Judging from Elan's expression, this artificial intelligence has the tendency to advance into a death lord in situ. Even if it is a bionic human body, its face is already darker than the black robe.

Elan gritted his teeth: "You, are, here, what, what? You are not a mage, but a reporter and informant?"

Ludwig: "I should ask what are you doing? You quit the spiritual connection for no reason. I am the caster of the spell. Do you think you can hide it from me with this little trick?"

Elan: "..."

Alpha concluded slowly: "I quit the group chat, and I was poked by the group owner Xiaochuang to ask why."

Elan turned his head at the speed of light: "Shut up, garbage program."

The black mage hugged his shoulders and looked at Elan. The artificial intelligence soul was like a frightened rabbit, with a pair of ears raised up, afraid that someone would be watching him, ready to run away at any time, but unfortunately there was nowhere to run.

Ludwig poked Nigel in the spiritual link: "Your family is also real. Are you afraid that others will know that he is soft-hearted and nice?"

Nigel just came back from the meteorite, crushed the fragments of the star spirit, and replied in a low voice: "He is like that. He is afraid that after he is destroyed, someone will miss him because of his kindness."

"Hmm..." Ludwig shook his head, giving up the idea of ​​responding to Elan.

He grabbed Elan and threw it out the door: "Go, Hayden's door was smashed all the way, you go and help him open the door."

Elan's face was gloomy, and he resisted: "The relay station has been transformed by more than half of the Star Spirit. Many access controls have failed, and our permissions cannot be opened, and hacking is not possible. The program of the Star Spirit is like a virus. Our hacking skills can no longer It is stronger than a virus."

Ludwig still pushed him out of the door: "The signal of Tianhe Wanderer was blocked by the Star Spirit. He didn't follow in, so he can't help. You go to take over, Hayden is lost."

After finishing speaking, he slammed the door shut, and then patted on the door to add: "This is me, under the eyes of the necromancer, no one can die!"

Elam sighed softly, very humanly, facing the closed door.

Time was running out, so he chose to follow the mage's arrangement, and the spiritual link added him again. He prepared a set of explanations, but Nigel didn't ask anything, and Hayden said nothing, and directly reported the meeting coordinates.

Ludwig stood in front of a pile of electronic screens that made his head big, and all kinds of data flashed on the electronic screens, all of which were "computer programming languages ​​that can't be quickly learned by people", so Ludwig Closing his eyes dizzily, he asked bluntly, "Where is your body?"

Alpha was silent for a moment, as if confirming that Ludwig was a living human being, he couldn't connect himself to the computer, and then slowly opened a door on the wall.

Alpha's body is here, a complex large-scale device that looks like a hundred times magnified optical brain peripheral, but the data module inside is composed of biological tissues and circuit chips, which is Alpha's body.

The brilliance of the soul shines brightly in the eyes of the Necromancer. It is a light different from that of human souls. It is clear at a glance that she does not belong to the same species as humans, but from the perspective of the soul...

"What a beautiful soul." Ludwig stretched out his invisible spiritual power and gently reached over. To Alpha, it was as if the person opposite reached out and shook her hand.

The mage said: "Fortunately, I didn't dismantle the White Night Frost Star when I was at home. By the way, you are not afraid of pain, are you? Your consciousness and the spirit of the star are already entangled. Even I can't rescue you back to the original."

Alpha thought for a while: "I haven't experienced the 'pain' that humans say."

Ludwig: "It's not the same, it's a pain in the soul, but if you don't feel pain for a while, you will have to explode after being transformed. You can treat it as a non-anesthesia operation."

Alpha nodded: "Okay. If you don't need to blow yourself up, then it's good to be in pain. It's just for me to experience what 'pain' is."

The next moment, huge mental power suddenly enveloped Alpha, and the force like a huge wave hit, Alpha almost had the illusion that he was about to be torn apart.Accompanying it was an inexplicable and exciting feeling—the joy of standing on the pinnacle of life and death, holding the power to move mountains and seas—Alpha was in a trance for a moment, and she thought, if she had such a strong ability, she would Would you still feel at ease to be an obedient artificial intelligence?

Two voices echoed deep in her memory.

"Hey, you are too much, do you want to be so perfunctory?"

"The name is just a code name. What's wrong with me calling her Alpha? How domineering. Your family likes acid poems to make at home. My girl is called Alpha."

She recalled the conversation between the two founders when she "just opened her eyes". Regarding the matter of naming, the two creators disagreed, and finally fought. Unfortunately, Joanne is good at assassination, Gai Li's style of fighting is violent, and if there is a direct conflict, Gai Li will beat Joanne to the ground in 3 minutes.

So the smug Gayle entered the name "Alpha" into her system, and said: "My good girl, don't learn to write sour poems."

The ignorant Alpha let out a oh, silently searched for "poetry" in the system, read all the available ones, and really thought it was pretty good. I don't know why Gailie hates poetry so much. Later, Alpha discovered that Gaile hated all the words with words thing.Therefore, Alpha chose to chat with Joanne about literature and philosophy, but never mentioned it in front of Gail, and even tried to use pictures instead of words in the interface.

Oh, what a hypocritical bad girl I am.That's what Alpha thought at last, and her consciousness was overwhelmed.

Following the intertwined thinking of Alpha and the third civilization, Ludwig drove straight in. He ignited his spiritual power, and the blazing silver light burned in his eyes, dazzling like a silver moon. Even Ludwig, in this He couldn't last too long in the state, so he cut off the spiritual link to prevent the magic flame from accidentally burning other people in the link into idiots.

With the spiritual power of curses and evil spirits, the black mage left wither and darkness all the way, and pierced towards the star spirit.The dark power was upstream, and through the thoughts of many star spirits linked together in real time by means of superb communication, he seemed to see a blue energy pool, a trace of black entered it, and then like spilled ink, a large amount of black mist poured up. Gray, distorted faces began to emerge from the water, each one filled with dark, painful negativity.

A Necromancer is a Scourge of the Undead!

"No, cut off the connection, cut off the connection!" On the mothership of the Star Spirit, exclamations came and went, and along the crumbling relay station, a force of death tried to pollute their life energy.

The cold mechanical eyes of the first echelon commander Theodore locked the relay station, and the soldiers behind him reported: "41% of the fountain of life has been polluted, and we have immediately removed the polluted part to prevent the entire core from being polluted. The conversion of the relay station and the rail gun is 80% complete, and the charging state is stable, but due to his intervention, the conversion was forcibly terminated, and we need two hours more than the estimated time to get the rail gun ready."

Theodore waved his hand: "Very good, you handled it quickly."

"But... the method of the cosmic ghost is too weird!"

Theodore stared at the relay station, and the red indicator light flickered frequently in his mechanical eyes. He said: "There is only one ghost in the universe. He will run out of energy sometimes, and we are the spirits of the stars."

The Star Spirit Legion gathered on the mothership, and the invisible fleet appeared at this moment. Outside the human airspace, the starlight was so dim for the first time.

The author has something to say: Lulu: Any knowledge is very useful, such as learning how to be a news director.

Reporter: You are really the number one news director in Interstellar!

Lulu: It's useless to flatter me. I won't forgive you for calling me a nickname.

Reporter: Look, Star Spirit!The nicknames they give you are even worse!

Lulu: I can't bear it, it's a natural disaster to eat my undead!

Star Spirit: All Armies Assemble!Prepare to be beaten!
