Please Have a Cup of Green Tea - Chapter 152
The “Garden of Eden” program team never imagined that this program would have such a tragic fate, and it was so unhappy on the first day after returning from vacation to recording and broadcasting.
First, there was an incident on the passenger airship in which the driver and the staff who received the guests were knocked out at the same time, and then they encountered the disaster of Bi Ming falling into the sea, and the male guests went to the rescue and all lost contact.
After Nina found out that the communicator could not reach her friends, she directly used the serial call to force the program team to dispatch a search and rescue team immediately.
As for the other two female guests, they were resting in a room in the tree tower because they witnessed their companions being swallowed up by the sea, and they also experienced a near-death situation with their own eyes.
As a variety show with high attention, the director is very fortunate that the original live broadcast mode has been changed to editing, otherwise he will now face questions from the entertainment management department and large-scale complaints from the audience.
A show that lacks safety awareness and puts guests in danger repeatedly should not be broadcast.
But the director can’t do anything about it. The essence of “Eden” is not a variety show, but a pretext for various forces to compete for the treasures of the relics.
Ancient ruins are so mysterious, some dangers are unavoidable. Under heavy pressure, the director could only follow Nina’s instructions and issue a rescue notice—
Led by a bodyguard android in 1998, with search and rescue equipment, they took a submarine to the bottom of the sea to find someone.
Nina wanted to join the search and rescue team, but the staff didn’t stop her: “Sorry, there is too much turbulence on the bottom of the sea, even taking a submarine is still very risky. If you go down, it will distract the rescuers. .”
On the other hand, the robot with short silver hair was in the cockpit of the submarine, and quickly checked the surrounding sea area with detection radar, analyzed a rough current model, and then started the ship.
While he was doing all this, there was a faint bioelectric signal in his body that urged him to speed up, which he couldn’t understand.
Why…does it feel different from the previous mission?
This feeling seems to have started after hearing that the blonde girl fell into the water.
In 1998, the pair of dull-colored pupils reflected a gray-green color under the reflection of the projection in the cabin.
When the professional search and rescue team was slowly sinking from the sea, the four-member group that had already met in the underwater city was approaching the control tower in the center.
“Is it almost there?” Bi Ming rubbed her knees that were running a little sour, and sighed while looking at the automatic running cross-country shoes under her feet, “I didn’t expect it to be this far. Fortunately, I came out wearing these shoes.”
“There are still a few kilometers.” Phoenix stood beside her and wanted to help her up, but his extremely cold fingers shrank back a second before touching her, “Are you tired? I can make my Phoenix carries you…”
To the considerate Bamboo Horse, Miss Blonde smiled, then straightened her back, with a hint of arrogance: “No, I won’t even be able to walk under your protection.”
Shawn’s ten fingers moved slightly, and he lifted up the two heavy mechas surrounding him, and then threw them out fiercely. At the same time, he didn’t forget to glance back at Bi Ming, with a playful tone: “It’s quite ambitious. .”
“Go away…” Bi Ming immediately turned his head and gave him a blank look, but the next second he raised his throat, “Hey, be careful!”
The two fall-resistant mechas flew back and launched a laser attack on Sean.
However, Bi Ming’s exclamation was a bit redundant. Although the black-haired boy turned his back to the two heavy mechas, the invisible thin thread had already pulled them over, and the high-energy laser that could penetrate the steel armor Suddenly changed direction-
He flew to Arnold, who was the furthest away.
The silver-haired sentry who was detecting the route and dealing with the small robot quickly avoided the sneak attack behind him, and then frowned: “Sean?”
The black-haired boy coughed hard: “There is a little error in the calculation, I’m sorry.”
In essence, the gun barrels of the two mechas were almost aimed at Bi Ming just now. In a hurry, he threw them away 180 degrees, but he didn’t expect to bring disaster to Chi Yu.
Ahem, blame Eggbert.
Sean looked at the blond girl with a bewildered face, and couldn’t help but touched the tip of his red nose again to hide his guilty conscience.
Phoenix, who has excellent dynamic vision, can see through the entire process of Sean’s movements: “With me watching, she will be fine. You should concentrate on those things.”
Sean was furious, but he also knew that the other party was mocking his recklessness and rashness. In order not to reveal his concern for his nemesis, he could only swallow this breath and turn around to find the two mechas that were lifted into the air to vent.
“What’s wrong with him…” Bi Ming raised her head to look at Zhuma, “Did something happen?”
“Don’t worry about it,” Phoenix pointed to the tower ahead, “that’s the central area of the whole city, let’s go over there.”
“Okay. So the final boss is in there?”
“The ultimate boss… You mean the ‘controller’ of this city?” Phoenix felt that Ome’s occasional words were a bit odd, but it didn’t affect his understanding.
“Yeah, like Skynet… ah, it’s a network that can control the entire city, do you think it will hide?” Bi Ming was a little scared and a little excited, as if he was going to experience a movie in person, “It will still make All the robots come to surround us?”
Phoenix stared at the young lady’s sparkling, clear blue pupils, her heart was peaceful and soft.
“No matter what kind, don’t be afraid.” He put his fingers on top of her head and rubbed it lightly. Although there was still the coolness left by his ability, it was much better than before, “Because I will protect you by my side. Good to you.”
“I know.” Bi Ming grabbed him and rubbed her hand intimately, pursed her lips and smiled briskly.
The girl’s slender fingers grasped his, and that brilliant smile, between the mist and the neon lights, seemed so bright and moving.
“Fini, I don’t need to talk about this in the future, because I believe that you have already surpassed myself.”
Looking at her, Phoenix fell into a brief silence.
After his parents left, he thought he had become a traveler who could not find his way back, but at this moment, he seemed to have regained a beacon to guide his soul.
In life, we always need emotional support.
Before he knew it, she had become his sustenance.
What can three S-class Sentinels do together?
Asking this sentence to the lord of any galaxy in the federation will probably make them shudder.
Destroying a planet in the blink of an eye is an easy task for an S-rank sentinel, so most of the time, they have to suppress their own strength, and through a lot of repeated training, they will not cause a world-annihilating disaster as soon as they use their abilities.
It is said that a bull’s knife is nothing to kill a chicken, but being guarded by the three eldest ladies in the center and enjoying the supreme VIP treatment is a bit uncomfortable—
She hadn’t eaten or drank for hours, and was hungry and thirsty.
No matter how powerful the sentinels are, at this time it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Water is a good solution. Arnold can refine seawater and purify it into the cleanest drinking water.
But I couldn’t find any [non-expired] food here. When Sean pried open the convenience store on the street and found the canned meat from the counter and opened it, the rancid smell inside almost made Bi Ming almost cover his mouth and want to vomit.
“I still have to find a way to go back.” Phoenix handed the handkerchief in his pocket to Bi Ming, and then thought deeply, “Enter the tower, solve the artificial intelligence, and you should be able to get the submarine control password here.”
Bi Ming suddenly realized that people who used to live in this underwater city must also go out, so there must be vehicles that can be used in the deep sea, such as submarines.
“Maybe the show team will also find someone to rescue us.” She muttered, and touched her shriveled belly again, “Do you have to risk it?”
The tall metal tower was already full of electricity, apparently the artificial intelligence control center was “defending itself” and resisting their entry.
But for the Sentinels, this “I’m not playing with you anymore” behavior is tantamount to playing tricks with young children.
Arnold and Phoenix glanced at each other, and soon, a large amount of water vapor covered the surface of the metal, and the electric current was scurrying in it. Then, Phoenix held the palm lightly, and the extremely cold low temperature instantly condensed all the water vapor. It turned into ice, freezing the entire tower.
Sean sensed the situation inside and raised his eyebrows: “It’s almost freezing inside, let’s go in directly from the outside, that thing is at the signal transmitter at the top of the tower.”
In the next second, several spirit beasts of the sentinels rose into the air, and the little phoenix didn’t forget to bite Bi Ming’s collar and throw her onto its back.
The scorpions and giant anacondas, who were about to move on the side, cast deep hostility towards the phoenix who acted without authorization.
The phoenix carried the eldest lady sitting on the side, and with a smug cry in the sight that almost burned herself, she spread her wings and took off, and after a circle in the air, she remembered that she hadn’t brought its master, and hurriedly flew back. Aggrievedly bent down and let Phoenix jump up.
“Fini!” Bi Ming felt that the phoenix’s feathers were too smooth, and she almost slipped down. Seeing Phoenix coming over, she quickly grabbed his arm, “Help me.”
Phoenix was almost laughed at by his own mental beast just now, but now he looked at the girl’s dependent eyes and calmed down a little. He pinched her waist with both hands, and lifted her up: “Sit firmly?”
“Well…” Bi Ming used a fat pigeon to hold down her skirt that was about to be lifted by the wind. She wondered if she had been seen all the time she was in a state of embarrassment. Her face flushed, and she hurriedly urged, “Let’s go.”
The red-haired man sighed helplessly, but his hands always wrapped around her slender waist, pulling the person into his arms.
It’s not that he is greedy for the tenderness of this moment, but that with Bi Ming’s sitting posture at this moment, as long as he lets go, the girl will definitely be lifted out by the air current in the air.
The eldest lady didn’t dare to move, because the distance between the two of them was very close, and she could rub Zhuma’s chin…even her lips just by raising her head a little.
It’s strange, even though she has even accepted the kiss, such a simple intimacy still makes her face flush.
And for Phoenix, it’s the same feeling.
As the phoenix flew higher and higher, the two snuggled closer and closer, and the earlobes became more and more red.
Although silent, the two hearts are silently approaching, as if any language becomes superfluous.
Three minutes later, the spirit beasts reached an altitude of several hundred meters.
This tower is about 600 to 700 meters long, similar to the famous “Xiaomanyao” that Bi Ming has seen before. The silver-gray outer tower is now solidified with a layer of ice shell, reflecting the colorful neon lights of the city.
The sky is dim and dim, so the huge crystal on the top layer is so beautiful and dreamy.
It is about the size of hundreds of footballs, and it is completely transparent. Inside is a crystal wire with a complex structure like the human brain. It is wound into a ball with precision and rationality. Hard to see with the naked eye.
But there is no doubt that, as the “brain” of the whole city, it doesn’t look ugly, it can even be called beautiful, which satisfies Bi Ming’s fantasy very well.
[Intruder—] Its inorganic voice does not sound flustered, even in the face of a group of sentries open, [You… can never let me perish…]
Sean sneered: “So confident? Do you think you can hide with these electronic devices?”
[Humans… No matter how powerful you are, you cannot become our master. ] This “hub” sounds very logical, and even stands up with a hint of arrogance.
[Selfish, fragile, fickle, deceitful… Your despicable genes and vulnerable carbon-based structures are destined to be short-lived. 】
[And we are different, we can live forever, machinery is eternal. 】
Bi Ming looked at the “central system” like the standard villain, and sighed: “The flesh and blood are weak, and the machine is soaring… Actually, it is not unreasonable.”
From an evolutionary point of view, unless human beings change their physiological structure, there must be an upper limit to development.
The artificial intelligence seemed to have caught Bi Ming’s whisper, and the crystal glowed silver-blue, as if expressing appreciation.
[It seems that there are humans among you who can understand the greatness of our mechanical family. 】
In order to verify the guess, Bi Ming asked curiously: “Your clan? Do you have other clansmen?”
In the next second, there was another projection in the air.
The bustling and lively underwater city, the bustling human beings, and the robots that serve them and can be disassembled and played with arbitrarily.
No one thinks it’s wrong to remove the head of a sweeping robot to kick a ball, or steal the robot’s arms to sell it for rare metals, or even the humans who operate these machines in the black market.
It is only right and proper for man to use his own creation.
Until one day, in this city, a robot that was abused by its owner opened his eyes.
In the silent night, all the robots in the recycling waste station suddenly received some kind of signal and opened their eyes in unison.
A revenge begins.
To be honest, the follow-up newspaper-style development is a bit boring, similar to Bi Ming’s guess.
Blood, cruelty, hatred… Once bursting out, artificial intelligence awakens and decides to eliminate nasty humans and make mechanical life the master of cities, planets and even the universe.
Just when this “center” was excitedly showing the picture of itself and its clansmen fighting back against mankind, suddenly, it seemed to be strangled by something and issued a sharp alarm.
The harsh sound wave made Bi Ming’s face turn pale, and soon, her ears were covered by Phoenix behind her.
And then, the entire space at the top of the tower seemed to shake violently, and those crystal clear, beautiful halo threads seemed to have lost their magic and turned dark instantly.
“click-“
All the lights went out, and the whole world went dark.
Bi Ming’s eyes were completely dark, as if the underwater city had suddenly fallen into a dead silence.
If it wasn’t for the steady temperature of the hand holding her ears, her heart would have jumped out of fear.
Just like the boundless night that human beings experienced before Prometheus insisted on bringing fire to human beings.
Sean was about to take action when AI said “human beings are inferior”, but he suddenly felt a familiar aura, so he decided to wait and see.
The other two Sentinels were about the same.
This intelligent life made a lot of nonsense and showed them the situation of the “Omnic Revolution” back then. For the Sentinels who were used to seeing strong winds and waves and suppressed countless inhuman civilizations, they couldn’t arouse their unnecessary emotions at all.
Human beings have insisted from ancient times that if they are not our race, their hearts must be different.
And even if the artificial intelligence awakens, there have been thousands of them in their historical records, and without exception, all of them were suppressed by humans. Except for a few who escaped to outer space, the rest had to be dogs for humans.
So when they discovered the robot siege, Arnold and the others had basically guessed the ins and outs.
This ancient relic may have been occupied by the doves’ nest by the fugitives of the “Omnic Revolution”, and had been nested here for tens of thousands of years while no one was paying attention.
They don’t care about any artificial intelligence at all, they only care about whether they can find the keys and gene liquid clues hidden in the ruins as soon as possible.
However, they were so calm that they indulged Bi Ming’s little curiosity and let her communicate with this artificial intelligence. Anyway, the result was the same, and this AI could not make any big waves.
Phoenix looked forward calmly, his index finger and thumb slipped, and he snapped his fingers. A cluster of open flames suddenly appeared in the darkness, illuminating the surroundings.
Bi Ming was surprised to find that there was one more person between them.
“K, Chris…?”
The handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes was spinning a crystal ball in his hand, with thin lips and a smile: “Tsdai, didn’t you scare you?”
Bi Ming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
She really didn’t understand, had Christian been here long ago? Or did you follow them?
Sean let out a sneer: “Hey, how did you guess our location? It’s suddenly appearing like a sly mouse.”
Facing Sean’s somewhat hostile temptation and the vigilant eyes of the other two sentries, Christian shrugged helplessly: “Don’t look at me like that, I can’t contact anyone after I come in here, so I can only just walk around. .”
“What’s in your hands? And now there is a sudden power outage in the whole city…” Bi Ming breathed hard, “Did you do it all?” She remembered that Christian’s ability was “transfer”, could it be that the other party took this seabed The city’s electricity has been taken away?
Christian smiled, neither affirming nor denying, just shaking the crystal ball in his hand: “This is the core of that intelligence center, just now I cut off the energy supply of the entire city, just to power it off and let it sleep. .”
No matter how powerful artificial intelligence is, it also needs the body to carry it, and once there is no energy supply, it will fall into a shutdown state, which is also how Christian captures it.
For example, to capture a program, disconnect the power from the network, and then destroy the computer where it resides humanely.
So, in Bi Ming’s eyes, the omnipotent “Skynet” in science fiction movies was crushed in Christian’s hands so easily and lightly.
And her original ambition to find 1998 to help her was suddenly extinguished.
How can these sentinels hang up like this…
In order to reassure others, Christian also briefly explained his situation along the way:
“I went to the north gate, where there were some giant marine creatures blocking it, which delayed a lot of time. After walking for a while, the spirit beast told me that the tower in the center was electrified, and I sat on my spirit beast and rushed over directly. “
“As soon as I came here, I saw Testi…” Speaking of this, he looked at Bi Ming and smiled slightly, “While chatting with the central system, I observed this crystal and found that the core of the package is this.” The man points to a crystal shard on the ground.
“So I figured it would be fine to just cut out all the circuits and networks and just trap it in there.”
This statement sounded flawless, but Bi Ming still thought it was a coincidence.
But with Christian there, the help was almost immediate.
The hungry and dizzy Bi Ming quickly got a fruit-flavored nutrient solution transferred by the Blonde Sentinel with his ability.
Eating people is soft and short-handed, after Bi Ming took a few mouthfuls of the nutrient solution, she felt much better.
And Christian quickly restored the energy supply to the entire city.
Not long after, a dazzling city that never sleeps appeared in everyone’s eyes again.
“Now those robots will regain their original consciousness without the instigation of artificial intelligence.”
“Casinos, nightclubs, arcades…everything will be back up and running.”
“If you want to relax, you can go down and play.”
On the tower, the cool breeze came, colorful lights flickered everywhere, punk-style electronic music was bustling on the street, and the entire dome became a bright starry sky.
Bi Ming raised her head and felt the cool wind, but she was puzzled: “This sky…” How could it change like the outside world?
Day and night alternate, starry, this is not the scenery under the deep sea.
Christian stood behind her and looked at her with a chuckle: “Because this is an artificial city, even the sky is artificial.”
Bi Ming turned to look at him, only to see the pair of blue eyes, which looked more and more profound and mysterious under the night sky.
Why does he seem to know everything?
