The Death Knell

The Milky Way is millions of light-years away.

On an extremely prosperous mechanical planet, there is a civilization with technology as its main development route.

The species on this planet got rid of primitive manual labor hundreds of thousands of years ago, handed over all work to robots, and truly achieved the small goals of eating, drinking and having fun every day.

Robots have supported this society and used their labor output to support the civilization of their masters. Over the long years, their masters have even experienced degeneration of their six limbs, becoming like a bamboo pole carrying a big head. head.

Choose an individual from this civilization and focus some attention on him.

There is a unified country on this planet, and the same name is not allowed to appear in this country, so the selected individual has a name consisting of hundreds of unordered characters. At least humans are definitely unable to pronounce such syllables.

Names are the basis for biological individuals to call each other and distinguish each other. In any civilization that is not dominated by "hive consciousness" or "format network", biological individuals have their own names.

However, on this planet, the biggest role of names is as Internet credentials. Residents here do not need to go out, they just lie in bed and rest every day. Robots do everything for them, so naturally they do not need to be called by others.

This race looks a bit like a cross between the Skrulls and the Mantis. In addition to their green skin, they also have a pair of oversized eyes and four arms [.boquge.xyz].

Therefore, first name this selected creature ‘Little Green’.

Xiao Lu woke up again in his luxurious room of ten square meters, with a smile on his face, as if he had had a sweet dream.

The population of the planet is exploding. Fortunately, everyone has their own ten-square-meter room in the hive. In short, a bed is enough.

He chirped a few times and said, "Wipe your face."

A pair of gentle hands came over with a small instrument. The instrument sprayed out a little warm water mist, soaking his face, and then turned into a small vacuum cleaner, sucking away the dirt in his eyes and face.

This water can also be recycled, but cannot be wasted.

Xiao Lu opened her eyes and naturally saw her own robot standing beside the bed. Except that the robot was made of silver metal, all other aspects of its body were the same as that of this race.

His robot uses a beauty template, which is said to be the appearance of a certain star in the primitive era hundreds of thousands of years ago when everyone still needed to go out.

"Good morning, Master." The robot made a sweet voice.

"In the mouth."

Xiao Lu calmly intertwined the twenty-four fingers of his four hands, placed them on his chest, adjusted to a more comfortable position, and opened his mouth.

The domestic robot's metal face was full of smiles, and a device deformed from inside its body to clean the owner's mouth.

"Well, take off the terminal first and feed me."

He felt the smoothness of his teeth with his tongue, and Xiaolu, who was very satisfied as always, made another request. Even though the micro terminal used to connect to the photon network hung on his ear during his sleep, he was too lazy to reach out and pick it off.

The six limbs of their species have little strength, and they will gasp for breath just by raising their hands. What's more, why should people do things themselves when robots can obviously do them?

The robot smiled and took off its master's terminal, then walked to the wall and pressed a few buttons on the wall, revealing a large display window on the wall.

Several robotic arms in the window began to work at high speed, using carbon atom printing technology to create a fragrant and steaming meal.

The mechanical servant picked up the dinner plate and came to the bedside, carefully chewed the food and fed it to the owner mouth to mouth. In fact, it is most convenient to use nutritional cream, but the owner said yesterday that he wanted to change his taste today and eat some "original flavor" food.

Xiaolu was lying on the bed, enjoying the beauty of the robot holding his chin to feed him. From time to time, he would take a break and chat. After all, it was still a bit laborious to swallow the food.

"I exploded several pieces of epic equipment last night. You don't know how much others envy me. With these equipment, I can gain military merit faster. Maybe I can upgrade my title today."

He showed off to his robot what he had gained in the virtual game world last night. Even though he was powerless in reality, in the game world, he was a powerful super soldier.

Mining, cutting down trees, and building houses are all out of the question.

The robot touched his hand with admiration and said coldly: "Master, you are the best, Chirp."

"It would be great if you could play with me. No one else is as smart as you. Playing a dungeon with them makes me mad." Xiao Lu was stuffed with a mouthful of food and swallowed it with some difficulty. He signaled again Pause and change the subject: "Why can't you access the game?"

"According to the Agreement on Servitor Code v32.78, the master needs to be allowed to enjoy independence and freedom. This is related to the progress of our overall civilization's sociology research. Please understand, master."

She answered with a smile and blinked her big eyes, as if she was still waiting for the next question.

Xiao Lu nodded in understanding. He had been living with the robot since he was born. She was his mother, his lover, and everything to him.

Now, in the baby-raising equipment in her abdomen, there is a baby formed by combining Xiaolu's seeds and her carbon-based bionic eggs.

Of course, raising children is too tiring. When the embryos develop and mature, they will be sent away and will be taken care of by the next generation's own robots, just like Little Green.

Although he knew that he had a father and had his contact information, he had no feelings for him and naturally he was too lazy to dial the video. He must have been the same with his children in the future.

"Oh, forget it, I'll work hard on my own. If I develop well in the online world, will you also have more face in front of other robots?"

The robot nodded, and the smile on its face instantly turned into a look of grievance. It continued to feed its owner and then replied:

"Yes, Master. The servitor next door said that her master revealed a legendary piece of equipment and showed it off to me this morning. Master, you have to work hard."

"Hmph! How dare you bully you? Don't worry, today I will go to a more difficult dungeon and get two pieces of legendary equipment!"

Xiao Lu gasped, he was very unhappy when he heard that his robot was being despised, and soon his anger turned into motivation, and he seemed to be one percent more powerful when swallowing food.

Xiaolu, who had finished his meal, rested for a while, and then was served to relieve himself. He seemed to suddenly remember something:

"What's the world like outside? Outside my room."

"That's it." The robot walked to the wall facing the bed and pressed a few buttons to play the projection. In the picture, there was an emerald green planet. The camera quickly dropped to reveal a forest. beautiful city.

This city is walled, and the walls are covered with robot guards and automatic turrets. They fight against the wild beasts from the forest outside the city and protect the safety of their owners.

"We live here, our little nest of love."

The robot smiled and clicked on the screen. It was somewhere in a tower-like building with no windows at all. I don't know how it identified it.

Xiao Lu tilted his head and looked at the picture, mainly looking at the forest beasts. He moved the fingers on his chest with some excitement and moved a few millimeters away.

"Can you take me out to see it?"

The gentle robot shook its head. It projected a chart, which was full of monsters and bacteria, and began to explain their dangers. The words made Little Green scared, and finally concluded:

"The outside world is very dangerous. The servitor cannot allow the master to take risks. Not to mention the terrifying creatures outside the wall, master, you may also contract diseases due to exposure to the outside air, suffer from depression after seeing dirty things, and get lost. If you can't go home and wait, you will die. You only have one life in the real world. I hope the owner cherishes it."
