Not Super Robot Wars at All

"Wow!" Uraki was excited like a two hundred jin child, running back and forth in the workshop, feeling that his two eyes were not enough, "Doctor, is this your special machine Silver Thunder? I can go in and see. see?"

"No." Alice would obviously be upset. "The one in the middle over there belongs to you, so you can go and see it first."

Uraki completely forgot his own bodyguard duties, and rushed to the side of Gundam, so excited. After getting along recently, Ed probably figured out that Uraki is a fanatical mechanical control, and he has a kind of admiration for himself. After being released from prison, he was targeted by the Federal Army for a long time, and he was a bit cynical about the government. But generally speaking, he is a nice person, and Ed likes him a lot.

On the one hand, I came to the workshop to check the results of Yinlei's modification, and on the other hand, I also took him to see the new machine he will use in the future.

The Lancelot's broken arm that was picked up before was quickly resolved under Ed's overtime work. He has successfully copied the technology of miniaturizing the I position, and both Heathersley and Dandy Lane will be equipped with beam shields. . Sure enough, there are so many geniuses in the world. You can't rely on yourself for everything. The wisdom of the people is endless.

It just so happened that the VSBR test in Anaheim was over, and Ed also installed this technology on Heathersley's long-bladed rifle. With VSBR, the output of the long-bladed rifle has become adjustable. It can be used as a heavy gun with long cooling and high power, and as a light machine gun with a fast rate of fire and low power.

Ed, the body prepared for Uraki, took a lot of thought. Uraki's physical fitness is excellent, and his ability to coordinate and dispatch complex armed forces is also very strong. These are all points to make good use of. But he really didn't want to be a Dendrobium or Yinlei-sized body, not to mention the blue-eyed white dragon could not fit. In the end, he borrowed the design of V2AB.

With the low-profile V2 Gundam as the core, there are two sets of small additional weapons for external attack (Assault) and firepower (Buster). The biggest disadvantage is that there are too many equipment, and the requirements for the driver are very high. At the same time, in order to make up for the lack of endurance caused by the excessive firepower, Ed sacrificed part of the ammunition reserves in the extra weapon and replaced it with an external battery.

Yes, Uraki is a battery warrior. To be precise, all MS in this workshop except Yinlei are electric toys.

Edhuai has a large number of professional diplomas in machinery, software, materials, etc., which can definitely kill people when taken out, but unfortunately there is no nuclear physics in it. And even if he understands nuclear physics, cracking the neutron interference canceller is definitely not something a small workshop like him can handle. This level of technical analysis cannot be achieved by any means without the support of a top scientific research team and a complete industrial system. This is probably one of the reasons why Klein feels relieved to trade with him, right?

"Doctor, why is V2 called V2? V1?" Uraki was like a curious baby, "Why is Yinlei's number TR6? TR12345?"

"...These are all abandoned schemes and have not been actually produced." In short, the flicker passed. Obviously, the strange numbering and naming are just my own obsessions.

The MS next to V2 was supposed to be a disco-it was wrong and almost had to receive a lawyer's letter-it was fate. But Ed encountered too many problems in the design process.

For example, what exactly is this palm thunder? With this technology, I can do it directly, so I deleted it.

For another example, what is this wing? Forget it, replace it with the spout magic of GP01FB. High-power nozzles are installed everywhere in the fuselage, which can achieve instantaneous acceleration and change of direction. Although it is not as cool as the wings, the effect is similar. But this heat dissipation will be a problem, and a new heat dissipation system must be installed on the fuselage.

But if so much energy is spent on the mobile system, the battery output is not enough. It is impossible to install as many weapons as the V2, but can only fight guerrilla with the VSBR rifle, occasionally as a fighting machine. The overall firepower and suppressing power are not as good as the V2, but the maneuverability and explosive power in the short and medium range are more threatening than the V2.

After the deletion, deletion, modification and modification of the entire body were completed, Ed looked at it speechlessly. As a result, the F91 was born in such a splendid manner.

In the corner of the workshop, there is a new low-profile nuclear-free version of Heathers Ray. This is also the most important purpose for Ed's coming here today.

The Emperor Britannia held a state funeral for Prince Clovis last week. It was announced that the spacecraft malfunctioned and exploded unexpectedly when Prince Clovis was traveling outside the atmosphere. It seems that Suzaku successfully returned to Britania, but how did it do it? Lancelot's crispy skin couldn't have the ability to break through the atmosphere alone. But this is not important, the key is that the enmity between himself and Britannia has been forged.

Even now, there is nothing to regret. If he is asked to choose again, he will still choose C.C., and Suzaku ran too fast at the time and he couldn't kill him. Yin Lei and his own leaks are only a matter of time. The only good news is that Britannia's behavior is morally untenable. It is impossible to attack him publicly, but to make small actions secretly.

So the possibility of Alice's damage had to be brought to the table. This new Heathers Ray exists as a backup machine. In case the silver thunder is damaged and Alice is affected, he needs a place to quickly restore Alice. For this reason, he wants to create a mirror image of Alice on the backup machine. .

Saying hello to Uraki, he entered the cockpit of Heathersley, and immediately remembered Alice's crisp voice.

"Ed, welcome back!" Alice said happily, "It's been a long time."

"Sorry, I've been a bit busy these days, and C.C. is tossing about the legal process." He actually felt a little sorry for her.

"It's okay, Ed." Alice's voice couldn't be heard. "...Miss C.C. won't return to Earth?"

"The earth is not very safe recently. She will be here all this time." Let’s talk about business first, and stop chatting. "In fact, there is a very important thing to tell you today. When you encounter danger in the future, the sea The Thursley is at risk of damage, so I want to back up you to another Heathers Thunder, so that even if something happens to the Silver Thunder, you can resurrect with full blood."

"Does it have to be like this?" Alice's voice sounded reluctant, "I can recover if the black box is not lost."

"But what if even the black box is lost? What if the silver thunder explodes in the universe and can't find the black box? That's why it needs to be backed up."

Alice did not reply, and the cockpit fell into a strange silence. The program backup is just a normal operation, why is Alice so resistant? Ed is not very understanding, but he respects Alice's will and waits for her answer.

After a long time, three minutes or five minutes? Alice finally said, "Ed, can I refuse? I don't want to back up myself."

"Then what if the data is lost?"

"That means—" Alice paused for about five seconds before finally uttering the word, "It means I'm dead."

"...Huh?" Did you hear it wrong, or did you hear the homophony of another word? Alice can’t say she—

"I once read a story on the Internet." Alice's voice sounded again, and he worked hard to hear every word. "There is a ship called Theseus that has sailed for hundreds of years, and all the parts have been replaced. , And finally used these replaced parts to create another ship, so which ship is the real Theseus? I don’t think I will have this trouble, even if all the parts of Silver Thunder are replaced It was dropped, and it became another silver thunder, but only the silver thunder I was in is the real silver thunder. Ed will definitely think so too."

He didn't speak, he knew he was listening to something very important, whether it was to Alice or to himself.

"But if every piece of my hard drive, every piece of memory, every integrated circuit is replaced, am I still me? I thought about it for a long time, and I think it still works. Because the data is still with me, I have everything with Ed With the memory of Ed, Ed will still talk to me instead of the newly put together, even if it can run the same program as me."

"..."

"For Alice, what is the most important thing? The conclusion drawn by the logic module is data, which is the data formed by recording all the things that happened before. As long as this data is there, Alice will still be Alice Ed, do you think such a mechanism can be counted as a memory?"

"…Calculated."

"Thank you, Ed." Alice seemed to chuckle, "Although I am an AI, I don't understand what love is, what courage is, and what is hope, but then I also have memories. If I can Well, if, if this is not too much, I also hope that there can be only one'me'."

"...The backup can be updated regularly." He felt that the corners of his lips were a bit bitter, as if he was doing something sinful and immoral. "The backup data will only be activated when the main data is completely destroyed. Normally, the backup data is only stored. It won't turn on."

"If one day Silver Thunder is really destroyed and the black box is no longer found, Ed starts the backup of me before, but after the backup, the data before Silver Thunder destroys, this memory will never be there. "Is it my own illusion with a bit of crying, "Is the new me Alice for Ed? For Ed, can there be many Alice? But for Alice, Ed always has only one. what."

Why is the light on the electronic screen so dazzling, and the line of sight is a little fuzzy, ah, I knew that I should continue to use the electronic sound: "But if something really happens, in case the data really can't be saved—"

"I want to be with Ed forever! But... but even the AI ​​understands that there is no such thing forever... Ed will die one day, if one day Ed dies, I If I have not been turned off, what should I do? I am not allowed to self-destruct. Do I have to live on my own until I get lucky someday?"

"..."

"So... so it is natural that I die before Ed?" Her voice was cautious, as if she had committed an unforgivable sin, "So Ed, can you, can you not back me up? "

It's just an AI, don't make it so sensational...

"...Heathers Ray is also PS armor and I stand. The meat is terribly meaty. It runs faster than the Hong Kong reporter with Dandy Lane." He knew he could be selfish. A fifty-fifth man, as long as your AI gives you some strength, it's impossible for someone to break it. What's more, you still have a little brother now."

"Ed...?"

"If I can't beat it in this way, I probably won't be able to survive. It doesn't make any sense if you have a backup." This is a reasonable reason, um, really, "So let's do it for the time being."

"Ed... Ed...! Ed! Ed~"

"Okay, I heard it." Don't change from artificial intelligence to artificial mental retardation, really, "I want to..."
