doomsday exile

It took two full hours before Yan Long found Lu Di and the others who were in drifting mode.

The aftermath of the electromagnetic storm still exists, all signals are forced to be interrupted, and the instrument screen is also a mess of interference waves. Even the AI ​​​​can't find the whereabouts of teammates from these data.

If it wasn't for Yan Long's carefulness, long-term experience in cooperating with the spirit body (Lu Di: that's me), and being a radar himself, he might not be able to find Lu Di in two hours.

Lu Di felt scared for a while when he saw the pockmarked hull of the Yuhui and a large piece of the tail cabin that was obviously damaged.

If Yan Long didn't get out of the battle in time, even if he defeated Yemengard, it would be a tragic victory.

No, it's already a miserable victory.

Lu Di drooped his head, allowing the spaceship to adjust its speed to keep parallel with them, and then raised its long mechanical arm to salvage the powerless spider mechs back to the cabin one by one.

First spray the airflow once, filter a layer of radiation, sterilize, and let it stand for 5 minutes.

During this period, the mental body is not idle, just chatting.

——There’s nothing they can do if they don’t chat. Before Yan Long appeared, they couldn’t do anything, and their mental bodies couldn’t get out of the broken mecha and be exposed to the radiation-filled space, so they had to chat.

Mainly concerned about the situation of the Statue of Liberty spacecraft and meteorites.

Although they confirmed that the enemy had lost the power to resist when the spider mech left the battle for the last time, they had no idea how destructive it was.

This kind of space combat is really frustrating, rushing for a few hours, starting the battle for 10 minutes, and being blown to pieces after the fight, almost turning into space junk.

Now there are no casualties on our own side, only some mental bodies have fainted due to "overload", and the stability of the body can no longer be maintained. Fortunately, they are not Lu Di, and they have companions to take care of them. They wake up one after another within these two hours. better.

This kind of overload at the particle level is more serious than the physical overload encountered by astronauts. The mental body temporarily loses the ability of synesthesia, that is, it cannot continue to fight.

"Yan Long?"

Lu Di tried to shout.

"I'm here."

A familiar voice sounded, but it was a little far away.

Lu Di found that it was coming from the loudspeaker on the bulkhead.

"How is Ye Mengjiad?"

"...things are more complicated."

When Lu Di heard what Yan Long said, there was a buzz in his head.

Just imagine that even AI feels complicated. Is the Statue of Liberty spacecraft really gone?

"It should be that I'm looking for too many high-energy particles."

Phoenix has too many feathers on its body.

Lu Di said dejectedly that he only wanted to disable the power system. Later, he found out that Yemengard's body was also on the spaceship, so he made a big one.

"No, there is a problem now, the spaceship may self-destruct."

"What? Yemengard made it? Why?"

The spirits were shocked.

"The battle area just now cannot be detected, but there was indeed a nuclear bomb explosion before. Did it hit you, or did the spaceship explode?"

"..."

No, they're not sure!

Even Lu Di wasn't sure!

"Could it be that the spaceship was destroyed, and then the nuclear bomb on it exploded, just like that...boom!"

Lu Di gestured involuntarily. After all, everyone only planned to destroy the power system of the Statue of Liberty.

He didn't do it before because he didn't know where the meteorite was. Not only would it expose his strength, but he might also be hit by a nuclear bomb.

After entering the pursuit battle, Lu Di discovered the fighter plane—in that case, he had no other choice. He found that he could control the meteorite and destroy the power system of the spacecraft at the same time, so he went on it without hesitation, because the earth and human beings may not have the first chance. second chance.

When retreating, Lu Di ran so fast that he didn't see anything.

"Even if it is a suicide bombing, the responsibility is not yours, but mine." Yan Long added in a steady voice.

He was the one who fired the plasma cannonball that caused the big explosion.

Without this fuse, the Statue of Liberty spacecraft is like a ship struggling in the waves, and the power system may not necessarily be scrapped. After all, it is inevitable to encounter electromagnetic storms during space travel, and it is not directly facing the sun. How dare you go to heaven if you don't fall?

The plasma creates a simulation of a plasma cannon, which is the main reason for the complete paralysis of the Statue of Liberty spacecraft.

Plasma cannons are very powerful, but humans have not yet mastered the use of this weapon in space, so they can only make do with it.

"Jermengard is on that spaceship, we can't let this spaceship go no matter what."

Yan Long stopped Lu Di from continuing to discuss responsibility.

"Are you all worried about the hostages on the spaceship?" Yan Long asked seriously.

"Of course... No matter what, it's a pity for those who were killed in the battle." Lin Hai said worriedly.It's not because of international disputes, but just from emotional and cognitive aspects, everyone is very sad.

There are also staff and scientists on board the spacecraft.

Not only those politicians and rich people who are afraid of death, they need people who serve themselves, the family and friends of the Conqueror crew are still on the Statue of Liberty spacecraft!

"Yemengade moved his own body to the spaceship, so the possibility of human beings on the spaceship is relatively low. Don't forget that human beings are earth creatures, and they are earth creatures that can give birth to spiritual bodies. It is impossible for Yemengade to put the spaceship The people above stay. As an AI, it only needs robots.”

Yan Long saw that everyone was depressed, so he reminded them.

From the very beginning, the hostages did not exist, otherwise Ye Mengjiad would have thrown over a video of the hostages long ago.

"...The people on the spaceship?"

"The Statue of Liberty spacecraft has been out of contact for more than half a year. The misfortune they encountered should have passed for a long time. The problem now is that the Statue of Liberty spacecraft may not even be able to find the wreckage."

Yan Long controlled the Yuhui to stay in place, waiting for the electromagnetic storm in this star field to subside.

Lu Di didn't speak.

Other spiritual bodies also have a headache when they think of international disputes.

In fact, even if there was really no one on the spaceship, they did not attack the spaceship. As long as the spaceship was not full of people, they would still be detained for the scapegoat.

——This is what Ye Mengjiade arranged. If it doesn't work on the battlefield, it doesn't mean it's useless at all.

Fortunately, the future itinerary of the spiritual body has been set. It will follow the Yuhui to Mars, and then wait for the large force to set off to the outside of the solar system to open up a new home for mankind.

The earth is not going back, so whoever blames him!

Thinking of this, everyone barely cheered up.

"Why do you suspect that Yemengade blew himself up?"

"You forgot, it transferred its body from the meteorite to the Statue of Liberty spacecraft. It lost this battle, the spacecraft was destroyed by us, and the meteorite was out of control. It is unwilling to bear all the consequences. Yemeng Jiade didn't want its own body to be obtained by humans, nor did it want humans to obtain its civilization crystallization, so it chose to explode the spaceship at the last moment."

"..."

After listening to it, Lu Di felt complicated.

How to make yourself look like a villain.

"It's too decisive, too."

"In fact, it's probably not dead yet."

"what?"

"In addition to the main body, the AI ​​also has a separate program, at least there is one in the meteorite."

The battle isn't quite over yet.

After the inspection of the spider mecha was completed, the cabin passage opened, and everyone left the carrier one after another.

When I came out, I saw the tragedy.

At least half of the figures were blurred, and the outlines of their faces were about to become weathered cultural relics, with only a nose and mouth barely recognizable.

"Enter the protection cabin!"

In this situation, they didn't dare to support each other, so they could only stay in the isolation protection cabin timidly to prevent further instability of the particles.

Lu Di waited for everyone to leave before daring to come out.

He hugged Yan Long who was waiting at the door.

This hug is equivalent to fusion, and after a second, there is a silver ball of light left on the spot.

"Are you okay?" Lu Di asked nervously.

Yan Long used the actual situation to show that he had no problems at all.

Lu Di confirmed it again, and then began to ask Yan Long what happened to the confrontation between Ye Mengjiad.

The silver ball of light floated into the metal robot, and then Yan Long confirmed that all the "captains" were online, and then told what happened before.

The spirit bodies were shocked at first, and then filled with question marks.

——The logic of AI is so terrible?

Going around, more than cosmic coils?

"No, it sounds complicated. In fact, I only have one goal, and that is to find out the real bottom line of Yemengard." Yan Long explained.

Lu Di asked subconsciously: "Meteorite?"

After all, they were aiming at destroying the meteorite, and Yemengarde could only rely on this meteorite to create the end of the earth.

"No, I had my doubts about it from the beginning."

Yan Long replied, "AI knows how to be flexible, and then I found out that Ye Mengjiad is not so desperate and crazy, it just behaved like that, or in the confrontation just now, it had scruples, so It was caught by me."

Lu Di: "..."

He didn't understand, but it was exactly as he guessed, Yan Long showed the fearful side of Yemengarde, and Yemengarde drove the Statue of Liberty to escape.

"Because it shifted its body, and didn't want to hit the earth with the meteorite?" Lu Di felt that this didn't count, and they had already guessed that Ye Mengjiad had other ways to escape.

"No."

It is AI that does not quite match the term madman.

Yan Long had a vague feeling that Ye Mengjiad had deliberately given them this illusion from the very beginning.

Including the data packet thrown to them, which stored the memory of Jormungandr and the past of the ancient spiritual body of the earth.

"Revenge is real, emotions are real, and his experience is also real, but whether it will cost everything for revenge depends on the specific situation... Do you still remember a question that Ye Mengjiad always avoided? ?”

"Those embryos?"

"That's right, the embryo is the bottom line of Jormungandr. It is something he must protect no matter what. If those frozen embryos are gone, it may indeed go crazy. This is the hint he gave us."

"Do you mean—"

Lu Di couldn't believe it, the embryo was still preserved?

At this time, the electromagnetic storm began to subside, and Lu Di used Yan Long to see the situation of this star field.

The Statue of Liberty was nowhere to be seen, and the meteorite was incomplete, at least twice its size.

An intermittent signal came out.

"Is it Jormungandr?"

"No, there are no active programs, this is like a packet."

Yan Long began to capture the information.

Yermungandr's weirdly twisted shadow moved across the screen like a nightmare, making a piercing laugh.

Three seconds later, the meteorite suddenly vibrated and exploded.

Fried from the inside out.

"What did he say?" Lu Di had a bad feeling.

"Said he would come back."

"what?"

Lu Di was stunned, wondering if Yan Long was joking.

Yan Long said in a deep voice: "That's what it means. It should have a split program hidden elsewhere. It threatens to create a second meteorite, or it can quietly come to the earth after humans enter the interstellar age, and activate those Hidden programs that have not been cleared by us, or more programs that have been spread, have since become human beings that cannot be shaken off."

"..."

The crowd was stunned.

"However, this should only be its threat, and it is not easy to do so."

"Yan Long! This is not a joke, I still don't understand why it exploded, even the meteorite exploded!" Lu Di hugged his head.

"After the failure, it is actually a very correct choice to realize that we have no chance." Yan Long looked at the meteorites that were missing by half, and all kinds of wreckage, large and small, floating in this area, with a heavy tone.

"The thing is very clear, the embryo is still there, but the old spaceship was completely destroyed in the final battle with the ancient spiritual body, or it could not support long-distance navigation. This is why Yermungandr chose the meteorite. It can only Hiding in the meteorite, it has no resources, no robots, and enough firepower. We actually took advantage of it. Although Yemengard has mastered technology beyond human civilization, there is no way to manufacture it. As a traditional AI, it It also cannot self-evolve to the point of researching technology, and its enemies do not allow it to have such idle time."

Jormungandr wants revenge on Earth, but it also needs a new ship.

It can't rob other civilizations, it is alone and weak, and those weaker than it have not developed the ability of interstellar navigation.

"Jermengard probably can only hide his spaceship and frozen embryos on an uninhabited planet that is cold enough and stable enough. It may indeed be desperate for this, because after so many years, it still cannot find a suitable planet..."

Yemengard decided to give it a go.

But AI has a backup plan even if it goes crazy.

If human beings can really leave the earth in 20 years and flee in a spaceship, they will grab one.

If not, let it bring doom to Earth.

"...The separation program of Yermungandr should be in the wreckage of the spaceship where the frozen embryo is. The signal that Yermungandr sent just before the self-explosion will be transmitted to that planet one day, and then it will be Activate, know what happened today, and remember this new hate."

"Then let's find a way!"

"There is no way, the universe is too big."

Human beings also do not have the ability to stop and track where the signal has been received by which "existence".

"We don't know where the planet where Yermungandr saves 'Hope' is. This enemy will continue to exist for hundreds of years in the future, until human technology reaches its peak and becomes an intelligent civilization that Yermungandr cannot retaliate against no matter what. "

The author has something to say: the recent updates are not stable, sorry OTZ

The villain this time is rather special. Strictly speaking, the villain Ye Mengjiade is only from the standpoint of the protagonist and human beings. As an AI, it is really difficult to write (a writer who makes trouble for himself)

The final plot is arranged in this way, mainly based on "foreign enemies are the source of development"

Ye Mengjia, who was trapped on an uninhabited planet, wanted to come out to make troubles again. It was not easy. He had no money, no resources, no one, nothing.

Maybe it will become a horror movie or a new sci-fi movie. Countless years later, an interstellar scientific research spacecraft found relics and broken spacecraft on an uninhabited planet. It found that there were frozen embryos on it and brought them back. Brought it back, and——

This scientific research spacecraft can belong to future humans or alien civilizations.

Uh, anyway, this is just a blank space, so I won’t continue writing the plot of Yermungandr
