I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Dawn.

The morning light is still coming, and the desert desert shows a wonderful golden color under the sunlight. This golden color is dazzling with minerals. It is different from the softness of the sparkling sea in the early morning. It has a cold and hard texture, like the blade of a knife. , which makes people want to squint their eyes.

After a night's sleep, Lu Tian felt full of energy.

Open your eyes, you will be greeted by the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

He saw the robot girl sitting by the stream, stroking the deer's head. The scene was peaceful and peaceful, just like any sunny morning.

"We are going to leave after today's investigation and return to our city. Do you and these companions want to come with us?"

On the side, Shuang Xin asked.

Hearing this, the robot girl tilted her head and seemed to be thinking.

For a moment, she shook her head.

"The charging device cannot be moved. I judge that if we follow you, we may stop operating after a period of time. The risk is very high. As one of my underlying rules, it is necessary to protect our own operation."

Lin said and added.

"Besides, I still want to wait for the people in the city to come back."

"Being able to meet you means that everyone will definitely come back. If they come back here and find that we have left, they will definitely feel sad."

After hearing the words of the robot girl, Shuangxin remained silent.

"What are the underlying rules you follow?"

Lu Tan couldn't help but ask.

"Well, first of all, the most basic rule is that you must never harm humans at any time, nor can you stand by and watch humans encounter danger."

Lin replied quickly, with a somewhat proud look on her face.

"The second rule is that you must obey human orders, but you must not disobey the first rule."

"The third rule is that you must protect yourself, but you cannot violate the first and second rules."

"These three rules constitute the lowest level logic of our robots. All our behaviors are derived from these three rules. Therefore, there is no guarantee for anything else, but we will never harm humans."

When Shuang Xin heard this, she fell into thinking. She pondered for a while, and finally gave up and let Lin follow her back.

If they can stay here, maybe they can bring people over later. If the saint is there, they might be able to solve the energy problem.

Another consideration is that if they really take Lin and the others out of here, then these robots will realize that the world has been destroyed. Shuangxin doesn't know their attitude towards the "new humans" like the insect swarm, even if they don't consider this , she also felt that it was a bit cruel to let the robot girl come into contact with this fact.

As a person who has never been exposed to man-made objects such as robots and artificial intelligence before, Shuang Xin treats these robots not as tools, but as humans.

However, the cold three laws of robots completely fix the positioning of robots on tools.

"let's go."

The four of them rode Camel Bug and continued towards the ruins of the industrial park.

Electronic products cannot be started without Lu Tiao, and they would rather find some paper information.

Paper used by humans is usually not good enough after a few decades. In extremely arid wastelands, this shelf life may last for more than a hundred years.

However, if the paper is stained with pigments, printing, etc., especially mineral pigments, then the surface of the paper will be covered with a mineral film. Under good conditions, there is no problem in preserving it for thousands of years. This is why those ancient The reason why paintings have been preserved for so long.

And if modern coated paper itself has been chemically treated, there is no problem in being preserved for hundreds of years.

So Lu Jian and the others' purpose was to look for those printed paper documents to see if there was anything they could take home.

Having been to the industrial park once, the four of them were already familiar with the road.

Lu Jian relied on [True Sight] to look for paper documents that might exist in the building, but unfortunately, he didn't know whether it was because the place was destroyed by the insect swarm, or because humans at that time no longer used paper. Recording important things, except for some posted documents, etc., no text like those files in the computer was found.

He could only use [Last Words] to repair these things and then print them out with a printer.

This process will take a long time. After all, only when Lu Tan touches it can these antique gadgets from hundreds of years ago start to work a little, and then spit out those hundreds of pages of documents.

While Lu Jian was printing the document, Shuangxin was exploring other parts of the ruins.

Looking at the desolate ruins, she felt a sense of loneliness.

Humans in the old era had a brilliant civilization that was unimaginable to them, but even so, such a splendid civilization was still destroyed easily and in the worst way.

All the struggles I am doing now are probably just as insignificant as the beating of ants in front of those supreme gods.

"What’s wrong with you?"

The singer asked. She was holding an abandoned tablet. She still didn't understand why this thing shone brightly in Lu Jian's hand, but looked like a brick in her own hand.

"I'm just a little uneasy. I always feel like there's something wrong with this mission."

Shuangxin looked at the towering rocket launch pad and frowned slightly.

"Insect swarms once hatched here. When human civilization was destroyed in the old era, this place must have been severely damaged, but why wasn't it devoured by the swarms first?"

"Perhaps this is just the place where the insect swarm was born. They were released in other locations and did not have time to come back and devour this place completely?"

The singer thinks the place may have just narrowly escaped total destruction, like the city of the future.

"Or maybe this place has special meaning for those swarms of insects?"

Shuangxin suddenly thought of something.

She took the map of the industrial park that Lu Tiao promised, and together with the singer, walked towards the location of the rocket launch pad that she had not had time to explore yesterday.

After approaching here, Shuangxin found that the buildings here had traces of scorch, as if they had been burned by scorching flames.

The huge rocket launch pad was empty, with only the blackened metal exuding coldness.

Frostheart came under the magnificent creation, and she found a door here that seemed to lead to the underground of the rocket launch pad.

The two walked down the stairs one after another. The place was dark and dry, and the air seemed to be filled with a burning smell that could not be dissipated for a hundred years.

After walking for about five minutes, Shuang Xin felt that the front suddenly became empty.

The feeling of emptiness was not just that of a hall, but that there was a plain or a huge cave in front of it.

She lit the wick in her hand.

By the flickering firelight, Shuang Xin saw that in the huge hall, there was a twisted mass of shimmering light.

The air twisted, forming something like a lens.
