Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

At an observation station located east of Brilliant City, a scientific team of 10 people from 10 subjects has just arrived.

"Hey, long time no see, Miok."

As soon as he entered the room, Zhao Qi, the director of Section 3 in charge of the Eastern Barrier Observation Station, greeted him enthusiastically. A man with golden hair took off his helmet and stretched out his hand to hold it. At this time, bursts of people entered the passage of the observation station. The sound of metal hitting the ground sounded.

Zhao Qi took a look and saw that they were robots with four legs and a body made of metal objects like pipes. They had 6 arms, each with a fixed hook, and each hand was a robot. Square machinery.

Such grotesque robots in the aisle kept walking in. As they walked, the tubes connecting their round heads and arms were swaying slightly from left to right from time to time, which seemed a bit funny, but this kind of mechanical use The robot based on the decentralization principle can easily carry 10 to 15 tons of things.

"This is an order, please confirm it."

Omic said, yawning loudly. After Zhao Qi confirmed the command on a light and shadow screen, he nodded.

"Miok, what's going on today? Why doesn't the sun rise?"

Miok laughed helplessly. At this time, several staff members came over with refreshments. There were only a few scattered people in the large event reception room. Most of these points had already begun to patrol the circular observation room on the eastern city wall. .

The length of the city wall is close to 3,000 kilometers. Except for the places close to the Himalayas in the west and the cold mountainous areas in the north, the east and south sides require daily observation and inspection.

Except for the 600-meter-long ring-shaped house in the middle of the azimuth, all observation stations are fixed. The 100-meter-long movable houses on both sides are movable, with speeds up to 1000KM per hour. People at the four guard stations need to be at the barrier all year round. Move up, conduct long-term observations in a certain place, and then directly store the observed imaging equipment, and people from the 10th department will come to pick it up regularly.

The situation in the air outside the barrier is not optimistic. There are a lot of radioactive dust and particles. After long-term observation, it is found that these things are released by the alienated creatures. It is very difficult to build a long-distance communication network.

The electromagnetic waves in the air are extremely chaotic and can interfere with communications. The most troublesome thing is those plants that reproduce in large numbers. Most plants can grow six to seven meters a day. If the barrier is not cleared for a month, it will be as high as 300 meters. , the plants will climb to the middle of the city wall.

"Is there any big move?"

Zhao Qi asked, and Miok shook his head, saying that he didn't know either. He came here to install a high-power temporary quantum network displacer. The specific reason for this would have to wait for subsequent orders, but Miok knew. , today an optical communication network will be temporarily built in the air.

"I'll tell you the truth. In the past, the alienated creatures were quite afraid of light. But in recent years, through experiments with detection robots, some crustaceans have developed shells that can resist light, including some former mammals. , the fur also began to show some changes."

Zhao Qi swallowed, but immediately laughed.

"At best, they are just some low-energy creatures. They only need a luminous nuclear strike to wipe them all out."

Miok nodded. What Zhao Qi said is also true. However, current research shows that these animals are not fertile. However, it is still unknown where their large numbers come from. The cells are no longer biological cells, but extremely special biological cells.

These cells do not have any proliferative ability, only mobility. They are like living mechanical bodies with flesh and blood bodies, and the morphological structure of the creatures has also undergone some changes.

At this time, all the robots entered the passage on the right, and several people from Section 10 also walked in. Miok took a sip of hot tea and stood up.

"When work is over, I'll have a drink with you. I brought some fresh steaks over, and you're going to put the sauce on them."

Zhao Qi laughed, and Miok brought out a small light and shadow locker and handed it to Zhao Qi.

Miok entered the room opposite the passage. Only people from Section 10 had permission to enter, and people from Section 3 did not have permission.

After the door of the room was closed, Miok sighed. He had already guessed that Congress was going to conduct weapons experiments. There were some storage specimen jars placed around the room, and there were strange alienated creatures in them.

At present, there is only one hypothesis. These alienated creatures have been exposed to harmful environments for a long time in the past two centuries. When they were on the verge of extinction, they came into contact with the biological crystal material and began to undergo life reversal. They are more like those from Fossils excavated from tens of thousands of years of ice are ordinary, but they are movable fossils.

The 10 people began to work on their own, and in the middle of this large circular hall, machines began to be arranged.

9 o'clock in the morning

As the red light began to cover the entire city, the street lights on the streets were extinguished one after another from top to bottom. Along with the cheering crowds, the sun rose.

However, in the red light at this time, on the east side of Capitol Hill, where the square was originally white, the white was faintly fading, revealing the originally dark metallic color.

Under the red light, the white circuit grid light covered the surface of an exposed dark sphere, like a swaying water surface. The white square part and the black sphere part were integrated.

The moment the red light faded, small hexagonal holes began to open one after another on the surface of the black ball.

swish swish

The sound of continuous firing sounded, and suddenly the sky was flashing with bunches of white light. It was extremely fast and reached the sky above the barrier area in just a blink of an eye.

crunch

The white halo receded, followed by black balls floating in the air. White halos appeared at the edges. A thick cone-shaped substance protruded from the top of the ball, with a small round piece at the top. of crystalline matter.

Spheres with a diameter of about 50 centimeters are arranged in sequence towards the east, one every 1 kilometer, like a white line of light, with a wide arc starting to connect to dots in the sky.

In just 10 minutes, many people in the eastern part of the barrier area raised their heads and watched as the black sky seemed to be cut open by a beam of white light, extending to the top of the eastern barrier.

"Start testing! Quantum network connection begins! Image generation."

Noah said to a light and shadow screen. At this time, accompanied by a sizzling sound, a three-dimensional light and shadow screen appeared above the conference room, and everyone looked at it.

In some gray scenes, everything outside the eastern barrier can be clearly seen. It can be clearly seen that the rugged terrain is pointing downwards, and there seems to be a black mass like a hill shaking in the distance of the camera.

"You can issue orders!"

As soon as Deguna finished speaking, Noah issued the next instruction and a series of signal connection codes.

Miok, who was looking at the quantum communication network values ​​​​on a huge light and shadow screen, immediately received the order. His eyes widened. The other 9 people gathered around. According to the special transformation code sent by the section chief Noah, the other 9 People began to calculate the specific command code values.

Soon all 10 people had calculated the code command values. Miok's eyes widened, and the other 9 people were also shocked.

"Start connecting! Operation code name, Great Halberd."

boom

In just the blink of an eye, 10 people quickly opened the baffle on the east wall, and a silent floating behemoth passed right above the center point of the eastern wall.

The head is like a whale, and the area becomes smaller toward the back. The entire Blue Whale battleship is completely visible to the eyes of 10 people.

Countless densely packed light spots covered the body of the Blue Whale Battleship like bright diamonds. You can clearly see a flag pattern flashing with colorful light on the right side of the Blue Whale Battleship, the flag of God.

The Blue Whale Battleship looks just like a real blue whale, with a huge tail fin, and its body is moving softly, as if it is a real blue whale, slowly swimming in the sky into the distance.

Whizzing

Along with bursts of light, in just a moment, thousands of flashing white dots of light spread towards the outside of the eastern barrier.

It was a light-killing small missile. In an instant, one after another light explosion points appeared dozens of meters above the ground. Like a prairie fire, the intricate and thick black and red plants entrenched on the ground spontaneously ignited.

The black dust swept over the sky in the strong wind. Miok swallowed and looked at the black dust flying in front of him, almost covering the glass wall in front of him, while a dazzling white light shone through the gap.

The huge body of the Blue Whale battleship was slowly turning into a round shape. In less than a few minutes, in the long-distance observation equipment, all the plants on the ground covering hundreds of square kilometers had turned into dust.

"Hahaha, you saw the power, no scumbags!"

Noah laughed wildly in front of the legion, looking at the effects on the light and shadow screens around him, the downward slopes piled with rocks and the mountains mixed in. Not far away was a huge plain with no end in sight. A large number of moving things can be seen there. It is more than 40 kilometers away from Brilliant City. There are a large number of alienated creatures entrenched there, and they are gradually moving closer to Brilliant City.

In the past few years of research on these alienated creatures, the most outstanding thing is the construction of biological substances. It is precisely because of these things that we can develop these biochemical mechanical mutant legions that are already dead before us.

It was still very early, and Noah had not yet received a formal attack order, so he could only continue to wait.

"Noah what are you doing?"

At this time, a large number of quantum network aerial locators had been launched from behind the tail of the Blue Whale battleship, and Deguna appeared in front of Noah with a furious face, in the form of a 3D stereoscopic image.

"Lord Deguna, I just can't hold back the excitement in my heart, so I just took the opportunity to clean up these plants."

"You are not allowed to act without authorization before receiving the attack order. Do you understand me clearly?"

Noah chuckled. After Deguna's image disappeared, he took another look at the legions below, and his brain began to become uncontrollably excited.

At this time, when the color of the sun had just turned normal, many people living in high-rise buildings had already discovered the dense white light that suddenly appeared in distant places. Some people even took pictures with their mobile phones.

But soon it appeared on the news page of the Branch that the Branch was trying to establish network communications in the barrier area. After all, the white line was clearly visible in the sky outside the Eastern Guard Station.

The riot was calmed down in a short time. Most people were focused on the mutant combat exam. Today was the last day. Some people had to prepare to go back to work. There were only three days of vacation in this season.

Most people can only wait until they have free time to watch the replays and live broadcasts of the top 64 mutants, all of which require payment.

The streets near the hospital on the ground floor were extremely crowded. A large number of people who had eaten food from Sanlian Company came to collect the antibody solution. Department 4 continued to insert some specific situations during the mutant combat examination. As long as the dizziness has been severe recently, you need to Go to the hospital as soon as possible to get more powerful antibodies.

At this time, some assisting medical robots with a height of more than 1 meter and a large number of robotic arms have appeared in most hospitals. This is to relieve the pressure of medical treatment. These robots can accurately dispense drugs after doctors diagnose them.

It's just that the emergence of robots makes many people feel a little strange. Not only the people at the bottom, but also some middle-level hospitals. Basically, there are less than 100 doctors left in the hospital, and most of them are robots dispensing drugs and giving injections. Fluid replacement and some simple cleaning and tidying up.

What people at the bottom see is new, because these seemingly extremely convenient robots have never appeared before, while many people at the middle and upper levels know about it, because after the medical treatment was taken back by the 4th Department, the doctor's physical condition once collapsed. There is a disconnect.

In order to resist the tough behavior of the medical department, most doctors from the medical association chose to go on strike, and the city's medical system once collapsed.

It was at this time that the medical association originally thought that the medical department would compromise. However, a large number of robots appeared in major hospitals. Although the number of doctors was still insufficient, doctors only needed to be responsible for seeing patients, and everything else was done by robots.

The efficiency was very high. At this time, a large number of doctors from the medical association panicked, but soon people from the medical company discovered the drawbacks. The cost of each robot was not cheap. People can rest when they are tired, but robots do not need to rest. Maintenance costs are required, and materials must be replaced when worn. People can heal themselves if they are injured, but if there is a problem with the robot, it may be just a simple problem, and it can be remanufactured.

Although there are technologies such as light and shadow materialization, which can be directly re-melted after the robot is worn out and the lost parts of the materials can be quickly manufactured, this means that a large amount of energy is consumed, and the consumption of electrical energy is particularly huge.

In just three months, drastic economic changes have occurred in most areas of the city. Electricity prices have begun to rise. The demographic dividend in the region has begun to decrease. Many people have realized that although these robots are convenient, they require Consumption of a large amount of energy will affect the quality of human material life.

In order to cope with this crisis, some important resources in the city even restricted the exit of warehouses. When everyone realized that the situation was getting worse, the business department took a tougher stance.

If doctors continue to choose to go on strike, their medical qualification certificates will be permanently revoked, and more powerful medical robots will appear. Robots equipped with artificial intelligence can completely replace humans in medical consultations. They can detect light through micro-elements embedded in the body and can quickly Based on big data, we can analyze which part of the human body has problems and determine the cause.

This means that the profession of doctors may disappear. Many doctors relented and began to take the initiative to report to the 4th Department. Some doctors also opened their doors. In the end, medical companies were directly compulsorily acquired, and the drug manufacturing and sales rights were directly controlled by the 4th Department. In hand, the price of drugs began to drop exponentially, and medical robots also withdrew from the stage.

Most people affected by this medical crisis are aware of the dangers of machinery. With the emergence of robots, even some people who were originally responsible for hospital cleaning have lost their jobs, as have some mutant mountain workers who are responsible for delivering goods to pharmacies. At this time, an issue arises. Since robots can do everything, what is the use of humans?

Finally, the medical crisis has completely calmed down. The 4 departments have been working hard to cultivate reserve medical talents in recent years, but the medical gap is still huge.

Later, Section 4 also responded to the issue between medical robots and doctors. Many diseases of the human body are comprehensive, and the mechanisms of the diseases they cause are complicated. Many diseases are even caused by human emotions, and AI It does not have the ability to fully diagnose these comprehensive diseases. The huge database can only determine the cause and prescribe the right medicine. However, in fact, many causes are caused by human emotions, especially some mental diseases, and AI is powerless.

Medical care also needs to take into account a person's recent medication dosage, work situation, living conditions, and mood swings. These are complex and emotional products that AI cannot directly identify. All it can tell is the data. s things.

Even if AI can determine a person's emotions through facial recognition, and then use some methods to temporarily get the person out of such a state, it is cold. AI can tell people how to adjust the state and what to do to solve the problem. problem, but in fact it is people who do it, and the way people deal with the problem is a huge historical derivative topic.

Because AI has no emotions, it is unable to empathize with other advanced brain activities unique to humans.

The tendency of representational processing is a huge problem that AI technology cannot make further progress. As long as it has huge data, AI can indeed be countless times smarter than humans, but that huge data is superimposed page by page in the long history of mankind.

In the end, AI has only one greatest role, killing!

Time passed by minute by second, and everyone in the section chief's conference room was listening to Noah's words quietly. He was very excited about everything that AI1 could do.

"On the ever-changing battlefield, a single command can change the situation of the battle. AI1 can instantly transform the collected data into strategic thinking and issue commands. It only takes 0.1 seconds to complete all commands!"
