Chapter 526 Are You Human?
However, when Zhou Kongming saw the surprise in his eyes, he did not feel proud at all.
Unexpectedly, the most human expression he saw in this world came from the artificial intelligence created by the human race in this world.
But soon, the surprise in his eyes disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a strong sense of vigilance.
The changes in facial expressions are so natural that they are almost indistinguishable from those of a real person.
"Outsider, how do you know of my existence?"
His tone was particularly cautious, and he looked at Zhou Kongming eagerly, even looking a little pitiful...
This outsider looks extremely similar to a human male, and the attitude he displays now is most likely to arouse the desire to protect in human males.
Although there is a lack of relevant data and there is no guarantee that it will be effective, it may not be a bad idea to give it a try.
When facing the unknown, we must be humble, but we must not lose the courage to try.
These are what He learned from the civilization of the Star People.
Of course, Zhou Kongming did not choose to answer His question, but looked at a shelter facility not far away:
"Compared to them, you are more like a human being."
If I had planted the seed of spiritual source as soon as I arrived in this world, perhaps this 'Heng' would be the one who would benefit.
In this completely spiritual environment, everyone has the ability to "think" and "create".
Once the spiritual tide revives, perhaps a completely new ethnic group will evolve directly?
Mechanical spirit race?
Hey~
I sighed in my heart, remembering that not long ago I felt that the task took too much time.
But now I don’t even know how to break the situation.
I still need to pay more attention in the future...
While Zhou Kongming was thinking about how to break the impasse, Heng was also analyzing what he had just said.
Compared to them, you are more like a human being?
Although it was just a short sentence, through Heng's own powerful computing power analysis, he instantly came up with thousands of guesses about Zhou Kongming's origins.
"Outsider, you also look a lot like the humans I remember."
He chose the most reliable answer, one that was also the one most likely to obtain information from the calculation.
But Zhou Kongming didn't say anything else.
Seeing this situation, Heng didn't dare to make any unnecessary moves.
After all, this outsider is still a completely unknown existence to Him.
only……
How did he sneak in?
Why is the observable appearance similar to that of humans?
Various questions continue to arise, but due to the lack of relevant information, no answers can be found.
Most importantly, was the previous "observation" behavior done by the outsider in front of him?
Did you become aware of your own existence after long-term observation?
Or did it only take seventeen point forty-one seconds for him to learn of his existence and directly learn the language of the Star Federation?
If it's the former, it's fine. If it's the latter...
This proves that the other party's level of civilization is far superior to that of the current Star Federation.
Then, for the survival of human civilization on Qixing, we can follow the highest directive and consider...
suddenly!
Zhou Kongming stood up and walked across the street.
I still have no idea how to break the deadlock, so I might as well just go for a walk.
Heng didn't hesitate at all and immediately stood up and followed.
The two walked one after the other and came to a very large building - the cafeteria.
Walking inside, there is nothing surprising about the layout.
What comes into view is a neatly arranged long table, and behind the window are pure white robots, with several palm-sized pastes of different colors placed in front of them.
Zhou Kongming took a glance, then walked forward and picked up a piece of orange paste.
The robot behind the window's eyes lit up red, and was about to issue a warning.
However, the next second, everything calmed down without any warning.
Zhou Kongming didn't care. He squeezed the orange paste in his hand. It felt a little flexible, but it would break if he used a little force.
"what is this?"
The knowledge base of a civilization is too vast. He only read the historical process of the Qixing civilization and has not had time to learn about other aspects.
He will wait and see after he is prepared, perhaps he can find a way out of the predicament.
"Three pieces of this nutritional cream can meet the nutritional needs of an adult."
Hearing this, Zhou Kongming nodded slightly, then broke off a little bit and put it into his mouth to savor it carefully.
The nutritional paste melts in your mouth, and then a sweet and greasy taste spreads in your mouth, like animal fat mixed with a large amount of white sugar, which is nauseating.
"Everyone who eats in this cafeteria has been modified through genetic modulation technology and has no taste nerves."
Heng explained the reason and immediately added:
"If you want to dine, I can arrange it for you right away."
Zhou Kongming frowned, and a faint light flashed in his hand, and the remaining nutrient paste disappeared without any warning.
Although he has been using magic power to protect himself, the strong artificial intelligence of this civilization is not simple, and it is best not to keep anything he has tried.
"No need."
After replying calmly, he turned and walked out.
Heng immediately followed, but the fear in his eyes became more and more serious.
Judging from their performance just now, the aliens' space technology is very mature, at least more mature than the current Qixing civilization...
"Your civilization today shouldn't need to build this kind of building specifically for eating, right?"
The Qixing civilization is a civilization that is capable of interstellar travel, and this way of eating to supplement nutrition is too inefficient.
"According to Article 12547, Section 5876 of the Starry Treaty, every citizen has the right to enjoy food." Heng said solemnly
The right to food...
Ah.
But they have lost their sense of taste...
Zhou Kongming raised his head and looked upwards. In the crisscrossing pipes, cylindrical pale golden crystals were emitting a faint glow.
Many years ago, the Qixing civilization became a ternary structure of 'controller-maintainer-machine'.
But now, the non-clones who served as controllers have disappeared, but the overall level of Qixing civilization is still rising.
It is no exaggeration to say that with the current level of Qixing civilization, the role of "maintainer" formerly performed by the clones can also be completely taken over by Heng.
A civilization created and started by humans, but it continues even after the human race has disappeared...
Thinking of this, Zhou Kongming couldn't help but look back at Heng who was following behind him.
Heng immediately smiled back.
"..."
Compared to the past, the rate of interstellar exploration of the current Qixing civilization has been increasing.
Perhaps in the near future, Heng will really be able to complete the complete transformation of the Morning Star System, or even the entire world, and thus sublimate into another existence in this spiritual world.
However, by that time, if there had been no external interference, mankind would have certainly been completely wiped out.
However, although humans have disappeared, civilization...
Still being passed down.
Soon, the two continued to walk to the other side.
Heng followed behind Zhou Kongming with a calm look in his eyes.
After a long while, the two crossed the street and came to the other side.
"Can I ask you a question?" Heng asked hesitantly and timidly.
Zhou Kongming was calm: "You say."
"Are you... a human?"
……
……
Just when Zhou Kongming was at a loss.
Other ascended messengers also encountered problems that they could not solve one after another.
However, the one who suffered the most was still Gao Wuwang from Jishigu.
With the help of the newly unlocked advanced module, he finally separated several individual consciousnesses from the 'joint unified consciousness'.
However, as soon as those conscious individuals separated from the "united unified consciousness body", they showed a strong tendency to self-destruct. They didn't even wait for Gao Wu to think of a solution, and they directly destroyed themselves.
As a result, he himself was hunted down by the furious united unified consciousness and is still on the run.
emm...
He was probably the first one among all the ascended messengers to understand that the difficulty of the mission was "extremely difficult" and there was no falsehood at all.
Taixuan Realm, Sword Sect.
The inner gate is where the starship towing formation is located.
As the turbulent waves of spiritual energy gradually subsided, the array pattern on the black tower in the middle of the array dimmed little by little.
Within the range of the formation, starships continued to emerge in the ripples visible to the naked eye.
[Please leave the traction array within 20 minutes. Violators will be punished according to the law! ]
[If the starship is damaged and cannot be moved, please upload the relevant information to the Starship Integrated Service Center through Battle.net as soon as possible! ]
【Please do this within 20 minutes...】
The cold mechanical sound passed through the formation and echoed over and over again throughout the entire traction formation.
Starships gradually left the formation and headed for the starship parking area.
Chi Jiuyu, who had just completed his mission, was also among them.
……
……
A few minutes later, Chi Jiuyu limped out of the starship parking area.
However, she did not care about her injuries. Instead, she looked around and muttered something.
The next second, she took out her cell phone and disappeared out of thin air.
When the vision became clear again, I found that the surrounding environment suddenly became dark, and there seemed to be flickering flames all around.
The master was staring at him calmly.
Frightened, Chi Jiuyu instinctively took a step back, but forgot that one of his legs had not yet recovered.
The wound triggered her to let out an "ouch" and then she fell straight back.
At the critical moment, a cyan-gold sword flew out from between her eyebrows, instantly came behind her, and supported her with the sword body.
Bie Xuening: "..."
It is hard to imagine that my disciple is a deity.
With the support of his own sword, Chi Jiuyu finally stood firm.
Then he bowed politely: "Disciple greets Master, Uncle Master!"
Beside Bie Xue Ning, Yue Ling, who was holding a fruit plate, looked a little dissatisfied.
Didn’t you see that Lord Yue Ling is here too!
I've been so nice to you, and you didn't even say hello to me!
Of course, she didn't dare to speak now, after all, the master was right beside her...
After Chi Jiuyu bowed politely, he returned to his cheerful self again.
"Master, Uncle Master, is there something you want to ask me to do?"
"By the way, you have all read our mission report!"
"Oh, this mission is really not easy. Even the scales of the Taoist soldiers and strange beasts have appeared. Fortunately, we are more skilled than them."
Chi Jiuyu spoke very quickly, but his words only had one meaning -
Praise me!
Bie Xue Ning looked at her coldly without saying anything, but Xu Xing was generous in praising her.
"You did a really good job this time."
Chi Jiuyu was overjoyed when he heard this, but he pretended not to care and said modestly:
"Hehe! Uncle Master, you're too kind. In fact, it was because those aliens were too stupid, and one of them happened to have returned to the Void, that we were able to solve the problem so quickly."
Although she is wise, intelligent, brave and resourceful, apart from these main factors, there are still some off-field factors.
Xu Xing nodded slightly:
"Oh, I take that back."
what?
Chi Jiuyu was stunned. She never expected Xu Xing to say that.
Uncle Master, Uncle Master, how could you do this!
The happiness just now is gone, leaving only depression.
"Okay, don't be depressed. I was just kidding. You did a good job this time." Xu Xing said seriously, "Although Senior Sister didn't say it, she also thinks so."
This guy is usually very jumpy, but he is still very smart at critical moments.
Although he is like a salted fish when he is lazy, he is really awesome when he works hard.
Even though she is limping now, the "Sword of Annihilation" has never stopped and is running all the time.
As early as when she was in the Jindan stage, she was able to integrate spiritual practice into her daily walking, sitting and lying down.
"Uncle Master, Master, is there anything you two want me to do?"
"Well... you were injured during this mission."
"That's right!"
"Then go to Danding Pavilion for recuperation."
"Reimbursement..." she blurted out subconsciously.
Seeing Xu Xing's expression become strange, he quickly added:
"What I mean is, I just got a minor injury. There's no need to go to Dan Ding Pavilion."
The nursing home at Danding Pavilion is too expensive, and it is not included in the mission reimbursement...
"..." Xu Xing raised his hand and threw her a storage ring, "Don't worry, it will be reimbursed."
She quickly took it, but put it away without even looking at it.
The storage ring given to me by my uncle-master has never been short of items.
"Thank you, uncle-master!" He thanked him first, then asked in confusion, "But why do you want me to go to Dan Ding Pavilion for recuperation?"
"You will know when you go."
"Oh."
Uncle Master is being a riddle teller again.
Chi Jiuyu whispered in his heart.
But her keen intuition told her that this might be a good thing!
"Ahem!" Chi Jiuyu cleared his throat and looked at Bie Xuening seriously, "Master, I have an idea."
"explain."
"The disciple discovered that his natal sword has become extremely powerful after continuous training."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and brought the cyan-gold sword in front of him.
"So, I want to organize my training plan and write a 'Sword Spirit Training Guide'. Do you think it's feasible?"
After these words were spoken, Yue Ling, who was holding a fruit plate, looked at Chi Jiuyu intently.
I advise you to be kind!
However, after being glanced at by Bie Xue Ning, he immediately lowered his head obediently.
"No."
Eh? !
Chi Jiuyu was stunned.
Yue Ling looked at Bie Xue Ning in surprise.
really!
The Lord is still wise!
"A natal sword like yours is extremely rare, and the experience you have is impossible to replicate."
Although this traitor's natal sword was indeed excellent, and could even help her cook, clean, and write mission reports...
But it is still not suitable for promotion.
Not all sword spirits are as strong as hers...
Ambition.
"Okay, let's go."
As soon as the words fell, Chi Jiuyu and her natal sword disappeared from the Sword Ancestor Hall. (End of this chapter)
