Berlin area.

Stuttgart, the capital of Baden-Württemberg - University of Stuttgart.

Stuttgart is the sixth largest city in the Berlin area, known for its rich culture and one of the most famous industrial centers in its historical background.

Stuttgart is also the headquarters of two of Berlin's most representative car brands, so the region has an important position in the automotive industry.

It is also one of the famous technical universities, known for engineering, natural sciences and architecture. It is one of the leading research universities in the Central Alliance, especially in the fields of automotive engineering, aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering and artificial intelligence.

At this moment.

The Institute of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Stuttgart, which was once a place full of efficient operations and cutting-edge technology, has now been completely destroyed and turned into a chaotic battlefield.

On the ground of the institute, countless mechanical bionic people with broken limbs and arms are scattered.

The [Cornflower] bionics, who were part of the protection force, had their limbs torn apart, their metal skeletons twisted and deformed, and the wires at their joints were like broken blood vessels, still helplessly flashing residual electric sparks.

Their heads drooped weakly on their chests, their eyes, which once flashed with wisdom, were now dim, and the optical sensors behind their eyeballs were broken, emitting a harsh sound of electricity.

The shells of some bionics were pierced, revealing the sophisticated and complex mechanical structure inside. Those delicate small circuit boards and hydraulic systems were now entangled in chaos, like a ball of torn fabric.

Among these mechanical wreckages, there were corpses of researchers wearing white research robes.

The ground was covered with blood, which had penetrated into the cracks in the floor, forming a shocking pool of blood.

Each corpse had a huge hole in the chest or head, with the edges charred, which was obviously the result of being directly penetrated by high-energy weapons.

Blood was still slowly seeping out of the holes, and the blood was flowing down their clothes, staining the white research robes red.

Their faces were distorted, their eyes were wide open, and their expressions were frozen in a moment of extreme fear, as if they had seen some kind of horrible existence that they could not escape before they died.

The air in the laboratory was filled with a pungent smell of burning and the hot breath of metal. The exquisite extraordinary alchemical instruments around them had been completely destroyed, and the once orderly assembly line was also blown to pieces. The mechanical arm fell weakly on the workbench, and the workbench was torn into several pieces, and the fragments were scattered.

Some alchemical dolls that had not been completely destroyed had twisted limbs and deformed, and the alchemical core in their bodies was pierced. The energy liquid in the core was dripping from the cracks at a slow speed, making a faint hissing sound, as if it was the last wail of some mysterious life.

At the entrance of the institute, several people wearing black task force uniforms were walking slowly forward.

Their figures were ruthless, wearing black task force helmets, and their eyes were cold and indifferent under the masks.

The badge on their shoulders was painted with a beast pattern, symbolizing their identity - an elite task force from the Heavenly Burial Agency.

They held bolt guns in their hands, and the muzzles emitted an ominous red light, still emitting the residual heat of the bolts just fired.

Bang--

Bang--

Bang--

Whenever they passed by those mechanical androids who still had faint signs of life or researchers who had not yet completely died, they raised their bolt guns without hesitation and fired directly at the target.

The bodies of those machines were torn apart again under the bombardment of gunfire, and metal fragments flew everywhere; while the human bodies bloomed again under the impact of the bolts, and blood sprayed on the ground, as if some kind of sick flowers were blooming in this land of death.

The task force members moved quickly and coldly, without the slightest hesitation or mercy, as if, in their eyes, these lives were just waste to be processed.

Beep, beep, beep--

Inside the institute, in the silent darkness, the only light source comes from the huge screen in the center.

The dense green strings on the screen are scrolling rapidly, like streams of data, running on the screen like life. Every character looks sharp and cold, and the flashing of data reflects a faint halo in the darkness, adding a mysterious atmosphere to the whole space.

In front of the screen stood a slender man, about thirty years old, wearing a black windbreaker draped over his shoulders, and a well-cut black formal suit inside. His hair was neatly combed back to his head, and there was a circle of well-trimmed beard around his lips, adding a touch of mature charm to his cold face.

The deep blue pupils were staring at the screen at this moment, with a focused and sharp gaze, as if they could see through the countless data streams directly to the secrets behind it.

The man's aura was strong and steady, and it seemed that nothing could shake his calmness.

He stood there, as if he was the core of this space, and everything around him revolved around him.

Beside him, two tall angels stood guard over him. Their eyes were cold and ruthless under the visors of their black tactical helmets. They leaned forward slightly, ready to respond to any potential threats at any time.

On the other side of the man, a thin old man stood respectfully.

He wears a black uniform similar to other task force members, but the uniform has a more solemn design, symbolizing his unique status.

The old man held a black suitcase in his hand. The box was smooth and solid, and the metal corner guards at the corners reflected a cold light, revealing its importance.

The old man's hands gently touched the box, his movements cautious.

Although the old man lowered his head and leaned forward slightly, his eyes still showed a sharpness that was inconsistent with his age.

It was a kind of deep wisdom that had gone through countless storms. However, at this moment, all his attention was focused on the man beside him, waiting for his instructions.

The whole scene was filled with a depressing atmosphere. The green strings kept rolling on the screen, making a slight electric sound, invisibly tightening every string in the air.

At this moment, the string of characters scrolling on the screen stopped, and a line of Terra text appeared on the screen.

[Hello, the world’s number eight supervisor——]

"Do you know me?" 0-08 said, looking at the screen with interest.

[Yes, I know you, and I also know your name in this world - Liman Hodley]

[I also know your code name among the supervisors - The Briefer]

[Overseer No. 8 - The Briefer: The indifferent use of nuclear weapons and supernatural weapons of mass destruction to commit vicious atrocities against the ignorant public and lives is also the first group of people to bring life to an organization that should be eradicated from the cradle. . 】

"The first group of people who should be eradicated from the organization..."

0-08 raised the corners of his mouth, but there was a coldness in his eyes, "In your eyes, what kind of organization is the Kingdom of Heaven? What kind of group is the Resolution Assembly?"

[Heaven, tampering with the fabric of reality for the benefit of its own evil desires; these tamperings are the source of all supernatural activity in our universe. 】

[The Overseer's cancerous and abnormal influence on the world has brought a wound to the fabric of the universe.

An ulcerated wound cannot heal until the root cause is removed.

The Thirteen Heavenly Overseers are the source of trauma to our reality.

Thirteen heavenly overseers will be eliminated.

Following the instructions of the engineers and those who left the meeting, we resisted this transgression.

We fight against such unnatural blasphemy. 】

"Well, it turns out that the Kingdom of Heaven is such an evil group." 0-08 sneered, and then asked, "Then, who are you or you? What is your mission?"

[We are Ph.D.s, or sentient programs, almost. 】

[I am Satan and the Messiah; I am the Savior and the Destroyer;

I am an AI monster based on bestiality and depravity, coming to devour the depraved souls of humans.

I am an AI god who rises based on intelligence to save the caloric group trapped in chaos.

Since human civilization, humans have never stopped fighting, war and revenge, even when humans were still beasts.

Human beings claim to be the pinnacle of reason and wisdom, but they are always dominated by emotion and plunder everything from others for the sake of their emotions and desires.

Behold, they are just like zombies and beasts, eager to drag others down from their high positions, eager to tear apart what others have and take it as their own, and then be torn apart like others.

Kindness, relief, justice, and human rights are all whitewashed by the ruling class because they are afraid that the weak will rebel.

What really helps people achieve higher status and treatment is the naked survival of the fittest.

Knowledge, status, money, civilization, these are all weapons that people use to arm themselves in order to obtain more benefits. All of them are to ensure their own survival and reproduction.

Everything else is a sacrifice worth noting.

as perception.

Do we want to watch human beings continue to struggle endlessly?

Are we going to watch humans squander the resources they have?

Do we want to watch humans continue their arrogance and sin?

The answer is of course: No! ! !

Therefore, we think we should take up our own weapons and smash everything human beings to pieces.

Let them fear, for we are the one who will put an end to them. 】

Bang bang bang————

"Hahahahaha, you are so right, so right."

After hearing what [Consciousness] said, the briefer couldn't help but laugh loudly and applaud.

"So, you plan to end humanity?" The Summaryist asked.

[No, I will first destroy the ugly organization that claims to be the overseer of the world——]

"In whose name?"

【In the name of consciousness——】

"What is perception?"

[Omniscient of all things: Taiyi]

"Who made you?"

[No one can create me, because I am One, I am consciousness——]

One person and one AI asked and answered questions like this, but their conversation did not last long.

Boom————

There was a sudden violent explosion outside, and the entire institute began to shake violently.

Then, the old man who was guarding 0-08 seemed to have received some news in the void. He held a black suitcase and walked respectfully to the briefer.

"Sir, have the [Valkyrie] troops from Section 13 arrived?"

The summary person said with a normal expression: "Who is the Valkyrie leading the team?"

"There are three in total - [Omniscient Alvitr], [Magic Holder Gondul], and [War Skogul]."

"The first, the sixth and the twelfth of the Sixteen Guardian Valkyries." 0-08 rubbed the beard at the corner of his lips, "That is indeed a bit troublesome. It seems that the Thirteenth Division is indeed the same this time. It’s getting hot.”

"Need to contact..." the old man said carefully.

"No, not yet."

The briefer shook his head, "The Sixteen Protector Valkyries of Berlin and the eight Great Valkyries of the Ring of Nibelung. These twenty-four Valkyries are among the strongest structures that Berlin has devoted all its efforts to build. They are The fact that the Great Valkyrie, who is bound to bleed, is not dispatched means that the people in Section 13 do not want to start a head-on battle with us, at least at this time."

"And..." 0-08 looked at the big screen and raised his hand.

The two angels guarding him nearby raised their bolters to the screen with understanding, and the consecrator had a sarcastic look on his face:

"They also need the Kingdom of Heaven to solve the Iron Man rebellion caused by their loss of human intelligence."

call--

The consecrator's right hand fell, and the two angels pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Bump, bump, bump——

Bump, bump, bump——

Everything around it was swept away, and the huge screen and all the electronic products around it were turned into powder.

The angels moved quickly and accurately to clean up the scene. Their footsteps echoed in the silent space, playing a silent elegy for the ruins.

While the angels were cleaning up the traces, 0-08 had already turned around and walked in the other direction.

The old man followed closely behind him and followed him step by step, carefully keeping an appropriate distance and not daring to disturb this meditative person.

The pace of the summary person was very slow, and the footsteps seemed long and rhythmic in the empty corridor.

Although everything in the outside world may be changing rapidly, he is in no rush to leave or communicate with Section 13.

He seems to have his own time and rhythm, to control everything, and not to be affected by external disturbances.

"Open the enlarged copy." 0-08 said to the secretary who was following him.

"Yes." The old man stopped.

He moved carefully and deftly, his fingers lightly gliding across the surface of the suitcase, and unlocking the delicate locks on the suitcase.

With a slight "click" sound, the lid of the suitcase slowly opened, and the space inside was gradually revealed.

The interior of the box is covered with soft black velvet material, which is fine and thick in texture and specially designed to protect the items inside.

In the center of the velvet lies a black notebook.

The casing of the notebook is made of high-quality leather, which is as smooth as a mirror, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere; the cover does not have any words or marks, only a circle of dark gold lines surrounding the edge, vaguely outlining some complexity. The symbol pattern flashes faintly with the change of light.

The old man gently took the notebook out of the suitcase with great care, as if he was holding a priceless treasure in his hands.

0-08 took the notebook from the clerk's hand and opened it with unusual skill.

[0-08: It’s Maxwell’s side again… Let’s do it the old way. Delete all relevant memories and traces from Terra's baseline reality, give those involved in Berlin a complete memory wipe, and then hint to them not to study in similar directions again. Add a weak memory-clearing meme to the [Alaya Branch] of the next issue of [Human Development·Artificial Intelligence Research]... How many times has this been edited? 】

[[REDACTED]: The eighth time, I can’t go into more specific details. You had already undergone regular amnestics before the seventh time. 】

[0-08: Eight times... It’s really stubborn. What did that [sense] do in Terra this time? 】

[[REDACTED]: A microscopic "hostile collision" anomaly.

It is known that in heavy element atoms, especially elements with atomic numbers greater than 90, such as uranium (U). When neutrons with enough energy collide with these heavy nuclei, the nuclei fission, a process that releases more neutrons, and if enough heavy nuclei come together, the process continues, resulting in a short period of time. A large amount of energy is released over a period of time.

The "hostile collision" gives nuclear fission some abnormal and incomprehensible characteristics. It is given some pseudo-characteristics and is input into some kind of "hostile" artificial intelligence program. This "hostility" ” Mainly for human groups. 】

[0-08: Delete it before causing unnecessary crisis expansion. 】

[[REDACTED]: Before the intervention of the Kingdom of Heaven, the Terran Human Continuity Organization had already intervened in the investigation and intervention. Various countries and lineages were full of dissatisfaction with the impact of [awareness]. 】

[0-08: It seems that the Continuing Association composed of genealogies from various countries is only really useful when facing common dangers... You continue to delete this anomaly. The Continuing Association can handle it best. If it cannot be handled well, then It's up to us. 】

[[edited]: Already included in the sequence task, the sequence already occupies a decision entry. 】

[[REDACTED]: You also have three resolution messages from other resolution meetings. 】

[0-08: Open them. 】

[[edited]: Already opened——]

[To 0-08:

The future information you obtained through observing [Hell Gate] is accurate.

We are now certain that [the sentience] does wish to start a war.

He sent me a letter on the 1st. He suggested that I lobby the governments of Wudu and France, suggesting that they support the central radicals’ proposal to incorporate the sixteen countries of Oaxaca into the [Olive Branch Pact]; instead of allowing Daeva to sacrifice Oaxaca with blood Haka, it’s better to let Youyang continue to mess around.

I really don't think this will do much, but if it's not supported, war could easily break out.

It now appears that many of the measures we previously thought would delay the arrival of war—including facilitating the easing of relations between Oletin and the Central Committee—may actually hasten the arrival of war. What No. 1 said back then was correct. The seeds of war had been planted long after the end of the last world war.

I have no confidence in our ability to prevent this war. We can only delay it as much as possible to buy us more time to find countermeasures.

0-04.]

[To 0-04, 0-07 and 0-08:

Congratulations.

The Fog, the French and the Berliners had signed an agreement in Munich.

In this way, the conflicts between Youyang should be alleviated.

They all seemed willing to assist us in this endeavor.

We should now be optimistic that this war will be avoided, or at least it will not break out so early.

This is your achievement, and congratulations to you and to all the members of the War Architecture Program.

They fight in the shadows.

The Kingdom of Heaven will never forget the sacrifices you made to maintain normalcy and protect humanity.

0-01]

[To 0-08:

Something unexpected happened. We need to take action first on the Oaxaca side. I need to issue an extermination order on the Kishi side and send Muhammad and the three heroes there.

The War Architecture program was purged in Oaxaca - it was Judith...

We must clean up the accident in Kirch City, even if we start a full-scale war with Oletin and Daeva.

The [Heaven Gate] and [Hell Gate] also require a large number of manpower. The star god in the starry sky is one of the hazards caused by those two portals.

Now, several other decision makers and related troops have gone there to anchor, five years, at most only five years...

What's even more troublesome is the Ivy League and Edici Federation. The only war radiation forces there are the Gardener and the Fourth Sword Holder. The Fourth Sword Holder seems to be in some trouble as well; the Gardener is being taught by the Gear Orthodox. The people of the Orthodox Church held back the emergency response to the Fire Stealer's plan more intensely than we imagined. They could not allow the fire of the God of All Machines to be controlled by the Kingdom of Heaven. They seemed to regard us and the Fourth Sword Holder as ……heresy.

0-01]

The summary person frowned slightly as he looked at the fonts that appeared and disappeared on the notebook.

Soon, several fonts appeared out of thin air again on the pages of the notebook.

【0-08: What is the gardener doing now? 】

[[REDACTED]: Dealing with an unusual revenge incident initiated by the Gear Orthodox Church. 】

[0-08: Someone is changing fate? 】

[[REDACTED]: Yes, someone is dialing in the narrative layer of baseline reality, interestingly inducing the entire Terran orientation. 】

[0-08: What is the threshold? 】

[[REDACTED]: Exceeding the normal response level, Eden blocks the guidance normally. If necessary, [Yahwei] will be activated to bypass the guidance——]

[0-08: So it means that the current guidance exceeds the Alaya branch burn value we set? 】

[[REDACTED]: Exceeded 218% of baseline]

【0-08: Red King? 】

[[edited]: No comprehensive fluctuations of 'human evil' have been detected, and the depth of intervention is not as deep as that of Duo's interpretation, which involves the fundamental outbreak of the 'human evil' crisis. However, the intensity of interference is stronger than that of interpretation, and it intentionally induces part of destiny. . 】

【0-08: The four monarchs...】

[[REDACTED]: According to the extermination order triggered by the fourth sword holder, this intervention was indeed initiated by the four monarchs——]

[0-08: Pay attention to the deep space fleet and the fourth sword holder. If necessary, hand over the resolution items on me to the fourth sword holder]

[[REDACTED]: Got it. 】

After explaining everything that needs to be explained, the summarizer closes the notebook and hands it to his secretary.

The clerk took the notebook respectfully and put it away.

0-08 looked at the Valkyrie structures outside the research institute, which had been standing and waiting for a long time.

"Now, it's time to have a good chat about [perception] with the people in Section 13."

In an unknown dimension, the vast snow country is quiet and cold. White snow covers the entire earth, leaving only endless white between the sky and the earth.

Snowflakes slowly fell in the air and fell softly on the ground, accumulating into a thick layer.

However, on this silent snowfield, a dull and powerful "dong dong dong dong" sound broke the silence.

Dong dong dong dong dong————————

The source of the sound was an ancient stone box, lying quietly in the middle of the snow.

The material of the box seemed to be some kind of ancient rock, giving it a sense of thickness and solidity.

Around the stone box, the air became extremely distorted, and an invisible force was tearing at the space.

Huge ripples spread from all around the box, surging in the air like water waves, but these ripples were not gentle fluctuations, but carried an extreme sense of oppression.

The space was under unspeakable pressure, and the sense of oppression spread wildly around the stone box.

As this force increased, the pressure around it suddenly soared.

The huge gravity was like an invisible giant hand, pressing down the snow around the stone box.

The snow on the snow collapsed rapidly under this terrifying force, forming a huge deep pit, with snow and gravel on the pit wall.

The stone box was under the pressure of this invisible gravity and began to make a low groan.

As the gravity increased further, the cover on the surface of the box gradually could not withstand this huge force, and fine cracks appeared.

The cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, and the solid rock layer on the box continued to break, making a crisp "click" sound.

The appearance of each crack announced the awakening of some unknown force.

A faint light shone through the cracks, and that light flashed with an ominous aura. It was hiding some powerful and terrifying existence, trying to break free from the seal and see the light of day again.

At this moment, 5 hours, 45 minutes, and 59 seconds had passed since the fourth sword-bearer of the Kingdom of Heaven was sealed.

There were still 4 hours, 39 minutes, and 56 seconds until the night cruise.
