Mecha and God

"What kind of surgery is it?" Long Yin worried.

"In fact, I'm not sure, I'm not a doctor. But Michael stated the seriousness of the incident. Since Lucifer invaded him, his code has been in a state of disorder, and then he found that Lucifer in his A virus was implanted in the program. In the Promised Land, Lucifer even activated or deactivated him at will. Michael is Nuomuo’s combat system. We will take off to deal with the mechanical army in a moment. If Nuomuo here If something goes wrong..." Chuan Bei tilted his head, "Although Isis is in charge of our machine now, theoretically speaking, Nuo Nuo has higher authority. What Dr. Nian means is to force Nuo Nuo to Go into hibernation and figure out a way to detach Michael from him."

"Sounds super painful." I shuddered.

Long Yin gestured and asked Chuan Bei to lead the way, "How do you plan to sleep and operate on him? I need to know the detailed plan."

"Your talent, Jonah's Long Night," Chuanbei said, "can adjust all mechs to manual mode, remember? We have definite information, Jonah's Long Night is also effective for Messiah. In other words In other words, you are the master switch of the system."

We all stopped in shock and looked at each other.

Long Yin was the first to break the silence: "Of course, of course, it's best for me to watch him. I won't let him mess around."

I disagree: "Is the source of the information reliable?"

"From your own database."

Long Yin was very proud: "Since I can wake you up, I can also make you sleep, it's obvious. Come on, let's find out the treatment plan now."

The lack of a special medical room in the mothership of strange monsters is probably because their life recovery ability is so strong, but they have many prisons for imprisoning human beings. Nian Xiang found the largest cabin for me operating room.I seriously suspect that this place used to be a place where strange monsters dine. The mothership's rugged skin, dark red inner wall, and fibrous protrusions that imprison humans all look very eerie.If it weren't for the dim blue light from the equipment in the Cavendish lab, I probably would have refused to set foot in this room.

Nian Xiang was arranging placement equipment, and when he saw the two of us, he greeted us and said, "This operation will be performed by me and Chuan Bei."

"Chuan Bei is an IT engineer." Long Yin said anxiously.

"And Mi Nuo Nuo is a personal AI. I don't think I can handle such a difficult operation by myself, so I need Chuan Bei by my side to make me feel more at ease. After all, if something goes wrong, you will definitely kill him." Am I right?"

Chuan Bei rolled his eyes: "Do you dare to love me as a backer?"

Long Yin was not amused by their witticism: "What will you do after I put Mi Nuo Nuo to sleep?"

"I'm in charge of translating his biological information into code," Nian Xiang said.

"And I am responsible for repairing Michael's part of the program. If the virus is found to be spreading, I will isolate Michael and give him a new entity to ensure the safe operation of Mi Nuo Nuo."

"As a family member, do I have to wait again?" Long Yin held my hand tightly, "I need him, and the empire also needs him."

"So we need to ensure that he arrives at Stormport in the best condition. During this period, you can command the breakout, manage strange demons, mediate racial conflicts, and help prevent Aspartia virus infection."

Long Yin stopped arguing with them, turned around and looked me in the eyes: "It's just a minor operation, they said you'll be fine before you go back to Storm Harbor."

I nodded: "You don't have to be too sad. This is not my parting with you, it's me and Michael, so if you don't mind, I'm going to say something very sad to him."

Long Yin tidied up his feelings and retreated silently.

I walked to the display panel: "Michael."

Michael looked at me dejectedly.

"It's just a minor operation and they say you'll be fine before you go back to Stormhaven."

"I'm not so sick that I can't hear what they are saying. And this sentence was said to you by Long Yin. If you tell me exactly what you said, are you announcing that you are an attack on me? ?”

I turned around and said, "Hey, I think we can start the operation."

"Nu Nuo."

"Actually, I didn't prepare any sad words for you. I never thought that you would leave, and I didn't intend to let you go."

"But maybe we'll be apart from now on."

"That's okay." I pressed my hand on the display screen, "I want to walk side by side with you in a dignified way. Everyone will see you, see me, and see us. They will say, ah, in this world In addition to Lucifer, there is such a righteous ai, and he is also very handsome. Two, all of them. Then you will have your own life. Will come to my house with flowers on Sundays and have a beer with me, just like Chuanbei and Like the West Tower."

"I'm no longer special to you."

"You will always be my sword, Michael."

Michael was silent for a while, and put his hand on the screen. I seemed to feel his panel through the cold panel.

"Are you ready?" Long Yin moved his five fingers, "We'll make it quick."

I lay down on the operating table.

When Long Yin pressed the hidden option in the menu, my consciousness fell into darkness.

I slept for a long time.

I didn't dream, but when I woke up, I felt empty in my heart.

I heard Chuan Bei standing beside him talking with Nian Xiang.

"I feel that I have inadvertently created a discipline that I am going to name mechanistic psychology."

"Grandstanding."

"You're just jealous of me being the creator of this discipline."

"Why should I be jealous of a blacksmith who doesn't even have a primary school diploma in a small planet on the [-]th or [-]th tier."

……

I opened my eyes, moved my neck with difficulty, and found that I was immersed in a piece of golden light.The light spreads all over the room, and complex nodes are displayed on it, slowly wandering, colliding, and annihilating, looking like a miniature universe, or something similar.It expands and contracts rhythmically, which also looks like the pulse of a living being.I'm fascinated by this complex existence.

"This is……"

"Are you awake?" Chuan Bei rushed forward, "How do you feel?"

"It feels... not bad." I sat up with his support. "What's this?"

Chuan Bei and Nian Xiang glanced at each other: "You have to be mentally prepared..."

"Is this Michael?"

"How do you know!"

I stumbled to my feet, looked up at the golden light in the creature's stomach wall, and softly called his name: "Michael."

"It's just a three-dimensional rendering of Michael. He's a program. But when we modeled it according to his formula, he looked a lot like a human brain."

"And it's as complicated as the human brain, or even more complex." Nian Xiang added.

My hand passed through the golden light: "Why doesn't he respond to me?"

Chuan Bei handed me a bottle.

The bottle is fully sealed, and a very small chip is soaked in the transparent oily liquid.

"This is Michael's body. In order to prevent information exchange between Michael and Lucifer, we separate him from your body and re-engrave him on this chip to ensure that it cannot control other hardware."

"He has been... separated from me?"

Nian Xiang nodded: "The virus spreads very quickly in his program. We received the order to ensure your safety first. After analyzing your genome, we took away the part that belongs to Michael."

"how?"

"There is actually not much difference between genes and programs," Chuan Bei and Nian Xiang smiled knowingly, "What's more, you were designed. Between Michael and you, there is a section of genome that acts as a firewall. Remind us who is him and which is you. Take out the diseased genome, cultivate the healthy gene into a retrovirus, and then re-inject it into your body to help you thoroughly clean every cell in your body. And Michael is translated into Chuanbei can use the computer processing method to help him overcome the disease."

"He doesn't look sick." I looked at Michael, who was emitting a soft golden light.He was so beautiful, he could even be called holy, he didn't look like he was infected with a virus at all.

"Because I fixed him." Chuan Bei smiled.

That smile quickly faded.

"Is there something you didn't say to me?" I realized the sadness in the eyes of the two of them, and couldn't help but start to tremble, "Lucifer's virus, how did you say that you can fix it?"

Chuan Bei was silent for a long time.

"format."

I was stunned.

Chuan Bei pressed the button on the computer, and I seemed to hear the sound of breathing, as distant as the tide of the sea.

"Michael?"

I lowered my voice very softly, because I was afraid that as soon as I spoke, I would hear his disappearing voice.

a long time.

"who are you?"

Michael responded to me curiously, and the golden light beams fell on my body like tentacles, wrapping me up.

I was bathed in this warm light, and suddenly I remembered the day when he stuck the hilt of his sword into the ground with both hands, kneeling on one knee: "I am your warrior, I am your weapon, my king."

Michael's formatting hit me hard.It wasn't until this time that I realized that I depended on him a lot, much more than I imagined.In my long life, there are three people who did not exist as hasty passers-by.One is Long Yin, one is Lucifer, and the other is Michael.

Unlike Long Yin and Lucifer, he never proclaimed his existence, but whenever I turned around, I could always see him standing quietly behind me.

I thought it would be eternity.

Even if I told him that I would set him free, I never thought that one day this would come true.

After all, there are some people you never want to end up with.

Chuan Bei and Nian Xiang asked for my opinion on how to deal with Michael like this.To let him exist as a system, or to say, to give him a human body.

I told them to ask Michael themselves.

A day later, they told me, Michael had chosen: to be human.

He said that because as an AI, there are many things that cannot be done, and it would be more free to become a human.

Chuan Bei asked him, aren't you formatted, why do you have such emotion.

"Because some pain doesn't go away with the memory." Michael said.

I'm going to that room less often because he hurts when I'm near.

He hurts when I get close.
