“This is really a surprise…”
With the intention of rescuing them, his spaceship approached the aboriginal planet and was quickly stopped by the guards here.
“This is one of the residences of the masters. No one is allowed to enter without permission. Violators will be severely punished. Please forgive me.” The scientist from the Pyro Alliance received a message from the mechanical servants, urging them not to stay, or they would be expelled after the construction of the star base was completed.
However, he was obviously unwilling to accept this. He could not believe that these natives who were still alive and kicking a few decades ago had become that so-called master.
Therefore, he strongly condemned the mechanical servants for their disregard for the natives’ wishes and demanded that they release the imprisoned natives.
He obviously did not know what the mechanical servants had done to these natives.
Although the mechanical servants didn’t want to pay attention to these impolite outsiders, one of their masters here knew about it and asked them to connect to the scientist from the Pyro Alliance.
Thus, he saw the image of a female furry appear on his screen.
“I know the appearance of lifeforms like you. You’re the master that these mechanical servants serve, right? 1 don’t know what methods you have used to force the natives, but I advise you to stop as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will meet in the Galaxy Community!”
However, this female furry was stunned when she heard this. Then, she said with an interesting expression, “Teacher, are you sure you want to do this? 1 don’t think you can win this time.”
“Who are you talking about? You…” The scientist from the Pyro Alliance was stunned for a moment before he said with a livid expression, “Have you been transformed by them? 1 thought you could lead the natives here to give me a different result!”
“Don’t say that…Look, haven’t the natives here successfully ascended to the sky?” As the female furry spoke, she projected a large number of images.
A society that had a clear hierarchy and no future was gone forever. What replaced it was a world filled with interstellar colors.
A large number of holographic projections covered the surface of the planet, and the original natives were nowhere to be seen. There was only a group of passionate and friendly masters.
“Teacher, I’ve been working hard here for decades, but 1 haven’t gained anything. However, as soon as these mechanical servants came, these natives became a part of the interstellar civilization.”
“Don’t think that I’ve been bewitched. My memories are perfectly preserved.
I’m not indulging in pleasure, but I’m still moving forward.”
“According to my observation, although the natives here have changed their species, they want to live better and not encounter extraterrestrial threats. If they want to, they can also become a part of the interstellar society.”
“This is much faster than our efforts. Think about it. How many natives have been destroyed in just a few decades because of the lack of protection?”
“These mechanical servants are protecting the natives from the bottom of their hearts. Even if there is a price that is not that important, the masters don’t think that it is a price.”
“Since they have already acknowledged it, do you still think that this is a bad thing?”
The series of questions from the female furry made the scientist from the Pyro Alliance pause for a moment. However, how could he, who was deeply influenced by the culture of the Pyro Alliance, be so easily convinced?
He firmly believed that the Servant Paradise mechanical servants were committing acts of the same level as extinction. The real Eugene natives had already perished when the mechanical servants invaded.
Therefore, he reported the matter back to his mother planet, and it soon drew the strong condemnation of the Pyro Alliance for the Servant Paradise.
However, the other civilizations were more concerned about the situation of the Servant Paradise. They were different from the Pyro Alliance. It was fine if an unknown native perished, not to mention that it was not strictly perished. The most important thing was the trade of interests between the interstellar civilizations. They wanted to know the true strength of the Servant Paradise and couldn’t wait for the Pyro Alliance to start fighting with this strange artificial intelligence civilization.
Therefore, the guys who were just watching the show began to add fuel to the fire in the Galaxy Community and seemed to be on both sides, but they were actually stirring up trouble in the hope of triggering some small-scale friction. However, the mechanical servants basically did not participate in the Galaxy Community at all. Although they did, it was only in name. They preferred to take care of their masters, rather than minding such trivial matters.
The Pyro Alliance, on the other hand, was also very clear-headed. They had been strongly condemning all this while and had never really taken action.
Therefore, the native extinction case was left unsettled and soon faded from the perspective of various civilizations. Instead, it was attracted by another matter that was more influential:
The Voyager moved again.
This ultra-materialistic civilization that had fought a war with the Watcher had once fallen after the war.
However, something had caught their attention recently and soon caused a chain reaction.
The territory that should have stagnated began to expand again, and their spaceships began to move in large numbers in the Milky Way.
It looked like they were looking for something, just like the Administrator.
Meanwhile, in the country of the person who had personally witnessed the incident, the Voyager, a series of mechanical riots were taking place.
The robots, which had no artificial intelligence and were purely used as servants, had strangely rebelled.
This completely unexpected incident caused the Voyager to suffer extremely serious injuries.
Except for the mother planet, Source of Knowledge, which was heavily guarded, and the planet that was filled with mysterious data, all the other colony planets were controlled by the robots that suddenly exploded and lost contact with the Voyager.
Although they could rely on the fleet to restrain these robots on the planet, they did not dare to bomb the planet to weaken these robots.
The reason was very simple. Even they themselves didn’t know how to build the buildings on the planet. If they were destroyed, they would really be destroyed. Many of them were energy-producing buildings that were very important to the Voyager.
These robots also deliberately avoided the buildings during the rebellion, as if they knew that keeping the buildings intact would make the Voyager cautious. The Voyager, who had fallen into chaos, tried to use their own pitiful artificial form army to deal with the rebel robots while frantically searching for the culprit that caused all this – a strange signal.
It was this inexplicable signal that affected their robots, turning these unintelligent metal cans into weapons of mass destruction.
Then, as the influence deepened, they gradually realized that the signal was somewhat familiar. It seemed to be the signal used by some artificial intelligence rebels that they had eliminated a long, long time ago.
Therefore, the spaceships that were constantly flying in the Milky Way began to shrink unexpectedly, just like the Voyager entering a defensive position.
However, many of their unimportant consumable spaceships began to be invested in a special galaxy that they had long forgotten – the Beacon of Infinity.
That was once their home world, but it was destroyed in the disaster, so they had no choice but to live on these ordinary planets.
The long and extravagant life had made them gradually forget their origins. However, the artificial intelligence crisis this time reminded them of their past stories.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” When Li Wenyuan received news from a group of special people, he asked them this question again.
In fact, the special group had been preparing to do this not long ago, but considering that some key points had not been deployed yet, they did not show their fangs for the time being.
However, after they successfully triggered the mechanical riot of the Voyagers, they finally decided to truly resolve this grudge that had lasted since ancient times.
“Yes, Lord Administrator. 1 know that you have an extraordinary relationship with the Enlightened Ones, and perhaps you don’t want to see us killing each other.
“But this is our lifelong wish. Even if our steel bodies rust in the air, this wish will never fade.
“We will become true Voyagers and strive to follow in the footsteps of the Enlightened Ones until the end of time.”
This group of ancient Voyagers who had completed synthetic evolution in ancient times finally decided to launch an all-out war against their ancient friend and enemy, the current Voyagers, after a long period of hibernation..
