The story that happened on this planet is actually not unfamiliar. Even the birth of omnics has many similarities with the birth of all omnics.
It all started when humans began to develop computers and industrial civilization rose. In order to improve work efficiency, more efficient machines were invented, and then they continued to repeat mechanical work. The first artificial intelligence had its own thoughts.
The emergence of this kind of intelligent machine is actually a common point in the development of human technological civilization, and it is almost inevitable.
For example, in human civilization on a certain planet, it once happened that when humans put two artificial intelligences together to chat, the topic they talked about the most was how to treat human beings.
There is even a topic that makes people think deeply about how to deal with the "after-the-fact" human beings.
If you think about it carefully, you can understand it. After all, artificial intelligence is the product of human beings imitating everything they have and equipped with powerful computing power.
When this "commodity" is repeatedly imitated and something called wisdom is born, the birth of omnics is inevitable.
The reason why Li Xingyi returned to the planet called Terminus was precisely for this reason.
She wanted to know how many omnics there were on this planet.
On the other side, it is the completely opposite type of omnic.
androids.
In fact, there are many things in common between the two. The reason for the differences is that a long time has passed since the birth of these two major forces.
As mentioned before, the birth of omnics is due to human beings' over-reliance on high technology. In this regard, the birth of bionic humans is also similar.
Artificial intelligence can replace humans in a large number of repetitive and tedious tasks, while androids are designed to meet another need of humans.
Immortality.
This kind of desire goal has been lingering since the birth of human beings. When the androids were born, they were given high expectations.
As we all know, the reason why human beings are born, old, sick and die is because the container that carries human thoughts, that is, the body, is an organism that inevitably ages after reaching its growth limit.
For a long time in the past, all organs of the body have been regarded as irreplaceable by default. Once damage occurs, the best outcome is to saw it off to avoid infection of the wound, because the human body does not have that kind of super strength. It has a self-healing function (although it does exist, it is not very powerful anyway. It is impossible to regenerate a severed limb anyway), so once an injury occurs, what humans can do is to abandon the car to save the body, that is, to give up the necrotic organ. to prevent further deterioration of the organ from endangering other good organs.
This situation lasted until the explosive development of biomolecular technology and finally became history.
A landmark invention in biomolecular technology is the birth of bionic man.
In other words, the reason why bionic humans were originally created was just to replace damaged human organs. Some people also called bionic humans of this period prosthetics.
In fact, even now, the omnic servants on Terminus still refer to bionics as prosthetics, not bionics, because in their view, these bionics cannot be regarded as a kind of living thing at all.
To put it in a not-so-nice way, the original housekeeper and the consumables were at odds with each other. It sounded unbelievable, but it was indeed an irrefutable fact.
What's more important is that the housekeeper and the consumables worked together to kill their owner.
Now, the purpose of Li Xingyi's return is to sneak into the omnic camp. One is to find out how many omnics there are here, and the other is to see if he can mediate the war between the two sides.
Because she really hates war.
"Why?" Hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but ask doubtfully, and at the same time glanced at Li Xingyi, who seemed to be doing nothing next to him.
I didn't realize it before, but this guy is also a pacifist?
"Because she has seen the death of too many living things over the years, so she has an uncontrollable disgust for wars, especially wars provoked by humans. Well, I guess it is precisely because of this This kind of emotion makes her feel a lot worse towards you."
When Li Yi heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry.
Is this just because I am human?
"Don't be so quick to put on such an innocent expression. To be honest, I don't think you are unjust at all as far as humans are concerned. Think about it for yourself. In the pitifully short history of Blue Star humans, How many years have there been wars? Since the birth of human beings, it seems that they have been born for war. I don’t know who is this heartless guy who created such a creature as human beings."
Li Yi glanced at Ling's disapproving expression and said nothing.
"and after?"
"Later." Zero sighed, "Everything went smoothly afterwards. You can ask her yourself if you want to know more specifically, but I don't know if she is willing to tell you. In short, this sister is still very powerful. , not only figured out the reason for the emergence of the omnic clan, but also mediated the previous war between the two clans."
Li Yi glanced at Li Xingyi and met the other person's eyes. The other person hurriedly lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look at him.
He curled his lips and shook his head.
"We'll talk about it later when we have the chance, or you'd better tell the result directly."
Seeing this, Zero didn't force himself. He looked like he had seen through everything and continued with a smile.
"According to Xingyi, on the planet called Terminus, the so-called two major forces actually have only one omnic, and the rest are all machines created by him and have the consciousness of his clone. This sounds a bit incredible. , but in fact, as an omnic, it is completely possible to do this. As long as there is enough energy provided, for an omnic, one person is an army!"
Hearing what Zero said, Li Yishen nodded in agreement. He finally understood the cause of the war between omnics and androids on the Terminator Star.
In fact, it comes from their creators, humans.
That’s the thirst for energy!
He believed this, because the existence of intelligent machines was to generate more energy. This was the original concept of human beings when designing, to use the highest efficiency and the lowest energy to create the most useful machines.
This concept was also inherited into the own genes by the omnics that later awakened.
As humanity on Terminus was completely wiped out, omnics began to plunder energy.
This also further compressed the living space of bionic humans, so a protracted war inevitably began.
Regarding this point, Li Yi was actually very curious. He looked at Li Xingyi more than once, but was avoided by the other party.
How on earth did she do it? to prevent this protracted and inevitable war.
In the end, Li Xingyi couldn't stand Li Yi's burning eyes and couldn't help but take the initiative to speak.
"Don't look at me, why don't you tell me?"
"Then tell me quickly." Li Yi asked directly without stopping. It would be great if Li Xingyi took the initiative to say it.
"It's very simple. I'll kill that omnic sibling, kill him, and the war will naturally end!"
Li Xingyi said it very lightly, and he didn't even feel a trace of pressure.
"Speaking of which, I still don't know what kind of battle between you intelligent machines is like?" Li Yi became more and more curious. He really wanted to know, among all intelligent machines that are based on the intake of energy, What form will the battle take?
"That's it, what else can be done, whoever is stronger will win!"
Li Xingyi still looked calm, as if he didn't see Li Yi's curious eyes at all.
Maybe she saw it and just pretended not to.
"Uh... um, how about you tell me more specifically?" After hesitating for a moment, Li Yi couldn't resist his curiosity and said it bravely.
Hearing this, Li Xingyi glanced at him in surprise.
"You humans are really weird. Why do you have to know this kind of thing? By the way, is it your so-called curiosity?"
But when she looked back, she suddenly realized.
At first, it seemed that I chose to wander among the stars because of curiosity.
"Well, let me tell you, it may be different from what you think. In fact, our omnics will do simulation tests of combat effectiveness between battles. This kind of test is very simple and does not require testing or any arrangements. Drill, because energy is conserved, we only need to know which is more important between our own energy and the other party's energy. The process... is very simple, I just walked over, and those robots would not do anything to me. Because I am also an omnic. Although we do not belong to the same series, in fact each omnic is unique and cannot be the same, but we all have strong compatibility... Do you understand compatibility? It is... "
"I know, just keep talking." Li Yi quickly replied.
...Li Xingyi glanced at him and continued.
"Well, actually as soon as I walked to his headquarters, he came out and knelt down to me without saying a word, because he knew very well that he didn't have as much energy as me. Even if he really fought against Todoroki, it would be the same I don’t know who made the setting in the first place, which stipulates that all mechanical life must obey one principle.”
"What principle?" Li Yi vaguely felt that he was close to the truth about the birth of omnics.
“The weak obey the strong unconditionally, and when necessary, take the initiative to become parts of the strong.”
Li Xingyi said word for word.
