After fully adapting to the dragon armor, Xiao Tingyun and the evil dragon cub fought again, and this time the evil dragon cub was beaten by Xiao Tingyun without any resistance, whether it was the strength or the energy it attracted. The proud defense was completely crushed by Xiao Tingyun, and even its dragon flames were unable to cause damage to Xiao Tingyun.

The second battle was almost a complete one-sided torture by Xiao Tingyun. After the beating, the evil dragon cub lay on the ground and almost suspected that the dragon was born. However, no matter how suspicious it was, it could not deny that it was A fact that humans have been completely abused.

Therefore, after doubting the situation, the evil dragon cub recognized the reality and lay on the ground howling loudly.

Seeing that it was crying really pitifully, Long Jiu reluctantly forgot about it chasing Xiao Tingyun and breathing fire, and coaxed it perfunctorily for a few words, but after only a few coaxing words, he couldn't help but feel disgusted. Give it a stab in the heart.

"Okay, okay, don't cry. Such a big dragon can't defeat a human. Why do you have the nerve to cry?"

Long Jiu apparently forgot the abnormality of Xiao Tingyun, a human being. After stabbing the evil dragon cub, he said: "After you know that you are not as good as others, you should work hard. You are still young now, and you can still improve." Space, come on, I hope you can avenge today’s shame in the future.”

She calmly comforted the evil dragon cub for a few words, then put the aggrieved evil dragon cub behind her, turned to Xiao Tingyun and changed her face again.

Long Jiu: "Brother is so awesome. From now on, you can take the time to practice with this big guy when you have nothing to do, and see if you can inspire some other abilities. When there is a chance in the future, I will see if I can catch an adult for you." The evil dragon of the abyss is coming, and I will give you a more powerful training partner when the time comes."

Her unabashed double standard made Xiao Tingyun laugh.

But Xiao Tingyun did not refuse her proposal this time. During the two sparring sessions with the dragon cubs, he also noticed his potential after being transformed by the dragon balls. If there was a chance, he could fight against the adult abyss dragon. In a fight, maybe his strength can become stronger.

Xiao Tingyun is the best student in Xingyun Academy over the years. Before Long Jiu appeared, he could be said to be the strongest in the Xingluo Empire in terms of physical and mental strength. But there is no one who is not strong. Yearn to become stronger.

Especially now that there is Long Jiu. Long Jiu's own strength actually puts a lot of pressure on Xiao Tingyun. He knows that he will definitely not be able to surpass Long Jiu, but even so, he doesn't want to be far behind her. Too big.

Although he doesn't mind eating Long Jiu's bowl of supreme soft rice, of course he would be more willing if he could become more powerful.

After Xiao Tingyun changed his clothes, he left the training ground with Long Jiu and the evil dragon cub.

Probably because he saw that the evil dragon cub had indeed been wronged this time, when Xiao Tingyun sent it back to the back garden, he specially ordered someone to prepare a lot of delicious food for it as a comfort.

After comforting the aggrieved evil dragon cub, the two returned to the dormitory.

This time Long Jiu didn't dawdle. After having lunch with Xiao Tingyun, she returned to Hongyan Star.

It was still the same on Hongyan Star. Long Jiu still had half a day of vacation, but she didn't go out to hang out anymore. Instead, she helped Zhou Xinyu send the gifts and then stayed in her dormitory.

Zhou Xinyu and the others went on a mission with Ge Yang, and they didn't know when they would come back. Long Jiu had a rare chance to have some free time, so he simply became a salty fish in the dormitory.

Youdao had stolen half a day's leisure from Fusheng. When Long Jiu Xianyu got up, he transformed himself back into his original form. The silver dragon with the thickness of his arms lazily sat on the lounge chair on the small balcony, basking in the sun and squinting his eyes in a daze. Feeling sleepy.

Just when Long Jiu was about to fall asleep completely, the personal terminal she placed on the small table beside her suddenly started beeping.

The silver little dragon moved his body, poked his little head over and took a look, and found that the caller was actually Prime Minister Turtle, whom he had not contacted for a long time.

Long Jiu was a little surprised. Prime Minister Gui has devoted himself wholeheartedly to experiments and research and development since he established the laboratory. He rarely disturbs her if there is nothing important. If she suddenly calls now, it must be really something. .

The little silver dragon waved his paw and directly connected to Prime Minister Turtle's video call with this look.

Three seconds later, the holographic screen popped up, and Prime Minister Turtle appeared on the holographic screen wearing a lab coat.

I saw that Prime Minister Gui, who had a serious face at first, immediately showed a loving smile on his serious old face after seeing Long Jiu's appearance at this moment. His eyes first turned around the little silver dragon, and then realized that even if he didn't After she took good care of herself by Long Jiu's side, Prime Minister Gui smiled and said, "Your Highness, are you on vacation?"

Little Silver Dragon turned over in the recliner and said lazily: "Yes, it's rare to take a day off."

Prime Minister Turtle was so cute by her little action of turning over that he even softened his tone subconsciously, "Old minister, I heard the recent news about His Highness from far away in Xuefu Xing. Our Little Highness is really amazing. In just a few days, Within a few months, he was promoted to major."

After being praised by Prime Minister Turtle, the little Silver Dragon, who was still slumped in the recliner, suddenly became proud, held his head high and said: "That is, it is still peaceful now, otherwise my military rank can be raised one more .”

Her coquettish and arrogant look made Prime Minister Gui burst into laughter, and he repeatedly echoed: "That's for sure, our little highness is the most powerful."

Long Jiu was overwhelmed by the praise, but he still pretended to be humble, "Hey, he's just averagely good. I can only fight a little. Uncle Gui is really good. He does everything with his brain."

After the master and the minister complimented each other on business for a while, Long Jiu asked about business: "Uncle Gui, why are you free to contact me today?"

Prime Minister Turtle wished he could spend 28 of the 24 hours a day in the laboratory. Not only was he not in the laboratory like today, but he also contacted himself and exchanged business compliments with him. This was very strange.

Prime Minister Gui also remembered the business after being asked by Long Jiu. He smiled and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. During this time, the old minister and Mr. Shen Qiao's R&D team are cooperating on a project. , Now the cooperation has reached the most critical moment, so I thought of Your Highness."

"Huh?" Long Jiu became a little interested, but she didn't expect that Prime Minister Gui was actually cooperating with Shen Qiao. She raised her body, raised her little head, and asked: "What project did you think of me?" ?”

Prime Minister Turtle laughed happily and said: "The latest intelligent system, although Mr. Shen Qiao graduated from the mecha design department, he is also a rare genius in intelligent systems."

Long Jiu was a little confused. She understood the truth, but...

"Aren't you engaged in biological and genetic research?"

How does it have anything to do with intelligent systems?

Both partners are laymen. Can this project really succeed?

But regardless of whether it can be successful or not, Prime Minister Gui is full of confidence. He said cheerfully: "Hey, cross-industry research has no obstacles for geniuses at all, and our project has been going very smoothly, and now it has arrived. At this critical moment, as long as we cross this critical moment, our research will be almost half successful."

Long Jiu nodded in understanding, "What does that have to do with me?"

Prime Minister Turtle glared, "Why doesn't it matter? Mr. Shen Qiao said this was the inspiration you gave him in the first place."

Long Jiu: "????"

The inspiration she gave Shen Qiao?

Why didn't she know?

Just when Long Jiu had a question mark on his face, Prime Minister Gui continued: "Our project is to develop the latest intelligent brain system, so that the intelligent system can generate its own consciousness."

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Long Jiu's mind, and she later recalled a conversation she had with Shen Qiao when she was at Nebula College.

Let intelligent systems develop their own consciousness

There are also things related to mental strength.

Long Jiu quickly finished her plate, and she said seriously: "But using the spiritual power of the deceased to integrate into the system?"

"Yes." Prime Minister Turtle said: "Originally, our project originally wanted the intelligent system to generate its own consciousness, but several early experiments failed. Finally, at the suggestion of Mr. Shen Qiao, we came up with the idea of ​​using deceased people. This will not only make the intelligent system more humane, but also allow the dead to be reborn again."

Long Jiu swung her little tail. She was very interested in this research project, but she did not forget that when she mentioned this matter to Shen Qiao, Xiao Tingyun was opposed to it.

After Long Jiu thought about it, he said: "I am very interested in this research direction of yours, but the hidden dangers of this research are also quite large. Have you ever thought about it, once intelligent systems have their own consciousness, they are likely to Harmful to human beings? Especially these consciousnesses come from humans who have passed away. You and I are more aware of the bad roots brought about by human nature. They are greedy, angry and foolish. If they are not shackles, the harm they cause is likely to be devastating. Today’s human world, not to mention how can today’s human world be separated from intelligent systems?”

Long Jiu's concerns did not make Prime Minister Gui angry. Instead, he showed a look of relief that "my little highness has finally grown up."

Prime Minister Gui looked at Long Jiu with a look of relief, "I am very pleased that Your Highness has thought so much. But please rest assured, Your Highness, Mr. Shen Qiao and I have also thought about this issue before you."

"Oh?" Long Jiu asked, "Then how did you decide? But there is already a solution?"

"Yes." Prime Minister Turtle smiled and said: "Mr. Shen Qiao proposed that every new intelligent system will be set with a final program instruction, and this final program instruction is that it cannot violate the owner's orders and cannot harm humans. Once Violation of this final directive will immediately initiate a self-destruction process."

Long Jiu blinked when he heard this, "Can this final instruction be tampered with or erased?"

"No." As if he knew what Long Jiu was worried about, Prime Minister Turtle said with a smile: "This final instruction will be completely integrated into the core data of the system. Even the system itself cannot tamper with or erase it. Once they If you have the idea of ​​​​tampering or erasing, the end result will be that the self-destruction process will be initiated."

Hearing this, Long Jiu smiled and said: "That's good, that makes me feel relieved." After saying that, she asked doubtfully: "Then why did you contact me this time?"

Prime Minister Turtle looked at her with a smile and asked: "When Your Highness proposed this matter to Mr. Shen Qiao, wasn't it for the sake of the two little guys you raised in the Dragon Soul?"

Long Jiu was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead.

Yes!

Didn't she tell Shen Qiao this just because of Suzaku and the Canglong Young Spirit?

After thinking about this, Long Jiu perked up and said, "So you came to me today to get rid of those two little guys?"

"Yes." Prime Minister Gui nodded and said without concealment: "Our technology is not yet mature, and we can't find anyone who volunteers to join the experiment. Therefore, the old minister thought of the two little guys next to His Highness, although they They are still just young spirits, but after being nourished by your dragon soul, they are stronger than the remaining mental power of humans, so they can better help us complete our research."

Long Jiu waved his little claws and grabbed two beads, one black and one red, from the dragon soul. They were the young Suzaku spirit and the young Canglong spirit.

The little silver dragon held the two beads in his paws and said seriously: "I can give them to you, but after you successfully develop them, you have to return them. They are not given to you for free, but mine. .”

Prime Minister Turtle couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "That's natural. Is it rare for an old minister to be greedy for the little things raised by His Highness?"

Long Jiu doesn't doubt this, but

Long Jiuti requested: "Also, after integrating their young spirits into the system, I hope not to attach that final command to them. After all, they were raised by me, so they will not be harmful to humans. danger."

Prime Minister Turtle hesitated for a few seconds and said truthfully: "I can't guarantee this. After all, this project is not the one I have the final say on."

Long Jiu said in a deep voice: "If it cannot be guaranteed, then I would rather they survive in this form. I proposed this to Shen Qiao in the first place just so that they could survive in another form. I hope to see What is more important is that Suzaku and Canglong appear freely between heaven and earth again, instead of being bound by humans, and are reborn in a surrendering attitude. This kind of rebirth is not rebirth for Suzaku and Canglong, but humiliation."

Prime Minister Gui was speechless when he heard this. He was also a creature of the wilderness, so of course he understood what Long Jiu meant.

The Suzaku and Canglong in the wilderness are the gods of the four directions, the divine beasts that protect one place. Naturally, they cannot surrender to human beings.

Prime Minister Turtle looked at the two beads under the little silver dragon's claws and said solemnly: "I understand, I will explain this matter clearly to Mr. Shen Qiao. As for the outcome, I will inform His Highness again."
