   Chapter 1169 Omnic Awakening (5000 words)

After   Bella quarreled with her companions, she insisted on bringing the wreckage of the dying omnic back to the base.

   Companions said she was crazy.

   They even wondered if the mysterious "L" had mastered Bella's weakness and made her do some unspeakable things.

   "It won't attack us."

   Bella gave her reasons.

   "Bullshit," the companion wiped the dust off a pair of protective goggles from time to time, trying to suppress his emotions and reduce oxygen consumption: "It's almost scrapped."

   at this time.

   When they quarreled, the "Tenth Generation Biomass Conversion Power Furnace" in Alice's body continued to operate even if it was damaged. After absorbing some of the biomass particles escaping in the air, Alice's energy recovered a little, and she raised her skeletal arm with a "click".

   Three silhouettes of "unknown colors" appeared in her field of vision.

It stands to reason that a creature like "human", in addition to the registered "biological battery", must be "red" in the eyes of omnics, but after "awakening" Alice, for the first time, has the ability to choose and judge on her own." the right of our enemy".

   In other words, this is the right to "choose".

   The biomass particles scattered in the foul air turned into bits of light dust and were sucked into the body by Alice's chest. This scene made the three people in the quarrel turn pale with fright.

   "Biomass... conversion power furnace! This junk is an advanced combat model!"

  zheng.

  A bright arc-shaped steel blade popped out of Alice's bones.

   But she did not aim the steel knife at the three of them. After a moment of silence, Alice asked, "Zizzizi...you guys, are you an enemy, an enemy...?"

  The man gritted his teeth, ready to fight to the death, pulled the bolt with a click, and pulled the trigger.

   "Don't! Something's wrong!" Bella excitedly held down her companion's muzzle.

boom!

  scoff!

The    bullet pops out of the chamber and shoots at the foot.

   "Are you **** crazy!"

  The man scolded and glared at the woman. But his slightly trembling protective suit betrayed his true thoughts - fear.

"Didn't you notice...it's thinking! It's actually 'thinking'! Its behavior pattern just now was not calculating, but after asking, it produced a process of independent thinking! This is a unique omnic! It has truly autonomous intelligence! That is to say...it has awakened!"

  Bella spoke very fast. After she said the above reasons in one breath, she took a few steps closer to Alice cautiously: "We have no hostility, look..."

   As she spoke, she lightly placed the stained assembled rifle beside her feet and raised her hands high: "We have no hostility." She hurriedly motioned her companion to put down the gun.

  Alice's steel knife pointed at the other two: "They seem to have."

   "Tenth Generation Biomass Conversion Power Furnace" flickered.

  According to the information, the biomass conversion power furnace of the advanced combat model can emit a kind of "particles" that humans cannot resist, and convert the "biomass" into the energy needed by the omnipotent machine. This model is a spike-killing technology for humans and other creatures.

   Simply put, they will "eat" people.

  Crowd tactics are a joke in front of advanced models equipped with this special power furnace.

  Bella's two companions were really stunned this time.

different.

   Now, they can also see that this omnic is completely different from the omnics they have seen and fought.

  Omnic, is the mortal enemy of all mankind.

  Whether in the real world or in the virtual world, they are mortal enemies.

   Once they meet, they will never die.

   There is no time to speak.

   As usual, surrender doesn't work, and omnics don't have the ridiculous virtue of "disarm and kill".

   Under Bella's eyes, the other two obediently put down their guns.

   In Alice's field of vision, the outlines of the three people turned yellow and green.

   "Zizzi—you—" The humanoid skeleton actually retracted the steel knife into the steel bone, and the cracked eyes flickered on and off, and asked with a sound component: "You, have you seen me, brother?"

   "Your brother? Who is your brother?"

   Bella asked.

   "L...he is, L."

   This answer made Bella completely dumbfounded.

  …

  Explore on the scorched earth, traveled through several radiation areas and heavily polluted areas, their signal was blocked, and they could not get in touch with the main base of Ark 11.

   But what is special about "Awakening Alice", they see it in their eyes.

   This is an omnic that is not manipulated by "it".

   This is an omnic with the ability to "think" independently.

   This is the first machine, there is no omnic that will never die with humans.

   This is also an omnic that laid down a butcher knife on humans.

   Above the scorched earth, everything is dead, and the appearance of Alice is like a signal, a signal that means "peace" and "hope".

   The two companions may not be able to understand the importance of the "Awakened Omnic" at this moment, but Bella, vaguely aware that this may be the key to the victory of mankind.

   "Have to bring it back!"

   They didn't have much oxygen left, and it was too difficult to carry the dying Alice back.

   They decided to go back first, go back and report to the elders, and then come back to carry Alice.

   Go and go, three days have passed.

  When Bella leads a small group, they arrive here again after a difficult trek.

   "Call..."

  Alice did not leave.

   In fact, when the dust settled and the biomass particles escaping in the air were completely absorbed by her, the light in her eyes was completely extinguished and she fell into a "shutdown" state.

  Using a rudimentary flatbed trailer, Bella's team of five worked hard to move the wreckage of the omnic back to Ark No. 11.

  …

  …

at the same time.

   The virtual world "Phantom Light".

   District 11.

   In reality, the completely formatted "Area 11" did not affect the order in the world of illusion.

   On the contrary, without the interference of "Hunters", it is more like a normal world, which runs automatically according to the usual rules.

only.

At the moment when "Sparkfall" formats District 11, all the phantom residents in District 11, whether they are sleeping, working, eating, walking, exercising, or creating people, no matter what they are doing , After District 11 was hit by a devastating planetary level, the actions of all residents of District 11 stopped for a moment.

Do not,

   To be precise, it was the "time" in District 11, and there was a momentary pause.

   However, no one noticed this.

   After a moment, do whatever you need to do, and the virtual world continues to run.

  …

   District 11.

  D City.

  The city's technology is highly developed, with hundreds of meters high chimneys lining up with white steam gushing out. A layer of multi-functional air filters enveloped the city, and the inner surface was as smooth as a clear LCD mirror screen, on which advertisements of different companies' products were projected and played in a loop.

  The upper blocks are colorful and rich.

  In the middle level, the huge chimney sticks out from here. This is an industrial area where iron cables and steel pipes crisscross.

   On the lower floor, the upside-down houses are intertwined with the low-rise buildings standing on the ground, and the light strips pass through the gaps. Above, there is a streamer-like shuttle-shaped traffic operation running in an orderly manner. This is a slum area.

At the lowest level, rancid waste water flows in underground pipes. From time to time, residents in the lower block walk on the ground, and even feel the slight vibration transmitted to the ground when the sewage flows, and the difficulty of accidentally leaking from the balance pressure hole. Smell.

  The upper, middle and lower three-storey blocks have different styles, quite cyberpunk style.

   Down the block.

   Pandora Avenue A11.

  In an old apartment building.

   The over-oxidized and blackened tungsten light bulb flicked, and a desolate and tired young man was sitting in front of a dirty chair, concentrating on surfing the Internet.

  The computer is an old-fashioned item bought from the second-hand market. The product that was eliminated by the wealthy in the block ten years ago would crash from time to time and cause daily tripping incidents.

   However, for the residents of the slums in City D, a computer is already a luxury. As long as it can be turned on, it is a good computer, and there can be no more requirements.

  Who made it cheap enough.

  The "coffin room", which is less than ten square meters, integrates functions such as sleep, work, excretion, and eating. It can be said that the sparrow is small and complete.

   On the bench in the corner, stands a rusty gas stove with a kettle on it, boiling water.

   Kaz, Kaz, Kaz, Kaz.

The sound of   's fingertips hitting the keyboard was like a sticky food residue stuck between the keys, making a sour "wheeze".

  【Jack, I’ve been dreaming a lot lately. 】

  【Oh, Neo, you may be too tired. 】

【may be. 】

  【Hey man, it’s time for you to find a girlfriend. Even if it's temporary, that's fine. 】

  【Where did you ask me to find it? 】

   [Brother, I'm in Bolan Street, and there is an acquaintance named Sister Lan. Your first time, I may be able to convince her to give you a 'free' lesson, I hope you can bear it. Trust me, she's very skilled, you can't last three minutes. 】

【Not interested in. 】

  【She is cold outside and hot inside. 】

【I am not interested. 】

  【She is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. 】

【roll! 】

  【Trust me, she is really skilled, God knows what you missed. 】

  【Shit. 】

  【Hey, in the next block, who is not shit. 】

   [But seriously Jack, have you ever thought that the 'world' we are in now may be a dream that can't be woken up? 】

  […Neo, I’m serious, maybe, you really need to go to Sister Lan once. You need a whole-hearted "physiological consultation" too much. 】

   woo woo —

   The kettle on the gas stove boiled.

  【Zizzizi—】

   Neo leaned back on the stool, extended his arms skillfully, took down the boiling kettle, and turned off the gas stove.

  【Zizzizi—】

   The screen flashed.

After    Neo poured himself a cup, his attention returned to the screen, ready to continue the topic just now.

On the    chat software, Jack's avatar has been hacked and is offline.

  Neo couldn't help laughing at his old friend's ignorance of martial arts. His anger was cold, his hands shook, and he accidentally spilled hot water on the keyboard.

   He quickly turned the keyboard over.

   This is not a big problem, just pour the water clean.

   It’s not that I haven’t tried it.

  【Zizzizi—】

  The screen goes black.

   "Shit!"

   Neo put down the cup, swearing in his mouth, and punched the side of the monitor hard.

Vigorously miracle.

  The screen is still black.

   If one punch is not enough, then two punches.

   When Neo hit his head more and more and punched more than 30 punches on the side of the monitor, the screen lit up again.

  Restart the interface.

   One after another blue data stream falls from top to bottom on the screen, like rain.

   "This is broken?"

   Neo was dumbfounded.

   After the data stream falls.

   Click, click, click, click, click.

   In the dark background, a line of strange words was typed out, as if someone was tapping the keyboard with an obscure technique.

  【If, the world in front of you is illusory. 】

  【So, do you want to know the 'truth' of the world? 】

  【Do you want to…really live? 】

  【or,】

  【Do you believe that there is a god? 】

  【YES/NO? …………L]

"broken."

Neo rubbed his eyes and muttered to himself with certainty. The "L" after a long string of ellipses seemed to be "garbled characters" mixed in the command line. It was broken, so Neo quickly pressed the force shutdown button.

   Forced shutdown in case of trouble.

   did not close.

  The screen is still on.

The line of    flashed on the screen.

   punched twice, but still no solution, Neo drank a glass of water and considered whether to unplug the power.

   at this time.

   A new sentence was typed on the screen.

  【Please enter the specified command line before shutting down. 】

  Yes, it turned out to be hacked.

  Someone would actually go to hack the computer in the slum, Neo has gained some insight this time.

   Put down the teacup, Neo put his fingers on the keyboard and typed "NO".

   Enter.

【congratulations. 】

  【You are unique, you have obtained the qualifications for the salesperson of "Dream Life Experience Museum". 】

  【Please arrive at the corresponding location for the interview at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow. 】

  【The opportunity is rare, please cherish it. 】

   Below is a line of address.

real world.

   District 11.

   Beneath the scorched earth, there is a piece of pure land.

   Ark Base No. 11 is a confined space located 100 meters below the scorched earth.

  This is an air-raid shelter made by our ancestors. After the "Omnic Rebellion" incident, a small group of ancestors moved here. The survivors survived here, took root and sprouted, married and had children.

  Originally, before the "Spark" descended, there were a total of 7 sub-bases outside the No. 11 main base. But overnight, they lost contact with other sub-bases.

   Today, including the "elders", the thirty-six people living in the main base are very likely to be... the last survivors in the world.

  When Bella's team worked hard to transport the "thinking omnic" back to the ark, the elder isolated a separate room. This is the arsenal of the residents of the Ark. On weekdays, they piece together parts, modify weapons, and cut protective clothing plates. Now, this is a temporary observation and confinement place for "thinking omnics".

   Actually, they didn't suspect that Alice was the spy that "it" dropped.

However, it is unimaginable that human beings' "cunning and cunning" appear on an omnic. It can be called "evolution". If they really have such terrifying intelligence, whether they bring "Alice" back to the ark will not affect human beings. future.

  The ancient diesel generator made a harsh roar, and the more than ten-meter-long line was pulled all the way to the room, and it was plugged into the hidden charging port of the human omnic wreckage for charging.

  The surviving survivors, outside the room, nervously staring at the inside of the room through the door.

   Although Bella swears that this omnic has true "intelligence" and will not hurt people rashly, who knows.

  Before Bella left the ark and set foot on the scorched earth to bring back the wreckage of the Human Omnic, there were two different voices in the ark - agree and disagree, no neutral opinion. Apparently, no one would have believed that humans could be friends with omnics without witnessing what Bella said was weird, against the residents of the Ark.

   However, Ark 11 has never been a place for democratic decision-making. After careful consideration, the elder insisted on his own accord and agreed to this matter.

   The charging process is very fast, and time passes by minute by minute. During this time, for the survivors, it is undoubtedly like a year, and it is eerily quiet outside.

   Elder leaned on a cane and stood quietly at the front waiting for the omnic to "wake up". He was using this silent way to express his awareness that he "will bear all the consequences".

   After half an hour.

  In the house, the lights on the eyes of the Omnic wreckage lighted up.

   Through the scan, the number of people outside the house and the combat power are clearly visible in Alice's field of vision.

  Alice did not eject the steel knife immediately, after "thinking", she waited for the other party's "negotiation" personnel.

   "Di Di Di—"

   The dense beeping sound was as harsh as an electronic alarm clock, and Alice beckoned to the outside of the house.

  Bella and the elder looked at each other, she supported the elder, stepped into the house and came to Alice.

   "You, hello, I'm Bella, he's our elder... It means the person in charge here. Although we are human beings, we have no hostility. You see, we have no weapons."

"Neutral unit, the login is complete." Alice said to herself, she moved the indicator light to Bella and the elder, and after the sound of beep, Alice's damaged scanning module obtained a lot of data , she said: "The abnormal secretion of adrenaline, 'their' heart rate averaged 46.7% above normal levels, combined with 'Alice-101''s once hostile stance against humans, are you... nervous?"

The elder    was startled, opened his mouth wide, and the inappropriate dentures fell to his feet.

   Even though she already knew that this wreck had the ability to "think" on its own, Bella was still shocked by the fact that it was so clear and well-founded.

   "May I ask who you are..."

"'Alice-101'...no name." Alice lowered her head, her eyes dimmed, but after a while, Alice suddenly raised her head: "No, NieR, I...is NieR. My brother is ...'L'."

   "We are, NieR, and L."

   "This is, our "name". "

   "Brother is formatted,"

   "NieR is sad."

  Bella was stunned, she widened her eyes and scratched her ears: "You said, you are sad? Sad?!"

  Neil raised his mechanical arm and covered the position of the power furnace in his chest. After a moment of silence, Neil nodded vigorously:

   "Yes, it's... sad."
