Chapter 544 The Choice of Civilization (5)
In Kashi's opinion, Mr. Osor deserved to be treated with the highest level of courtesy.
Such people who choose to sacrifice themselves for the sake of civilization to continue the future...
Sage!
A true sage!
With eyes full of respect for the old man whose face he had never seen before, Kashgar turned to look at Lala who had a stunned expression.
Tears like mist flowed in her eyes, and Lala's heart was filled with confusion and discomfort.
[Lala clearly didn’t understand what the alien was saying…]
[But why does Lala want to cry so much? ]
[Lala feels so uncomfortable...]
[Mr. Osor, Lala misses you]
She is an artificial intelligence…in the past.
But when artificial intelligence is no longer intelligent, when cold machines also have emotions... then, can it still be called "artificial intelligence"?
Perhaps Osor had already foreseen Lala's future changes, or he just wanted Lala to "evolve" in this direction.
However, such evolution comes at a price.
Having understood emotions but lost the creator of them, the pain in one's heart can never be truly expressed in words.
Maybe one day, when the "hopes" nurtured in the fire room step out of it, she will not be like this anymore?
"call……"
"Ms. Lala, do you know where the fire room is now?"
Kashi looked at Lala, whose face was sad but whose emotions he could not understand, and asked the question hesitantly.
Because he clearly remembered that there was a most basic structure in the fire room - the alienated remains of Osor!
Osor transformed himself into a robot and used the robot's body to accompany Lala.
This may be Osor's way of compensation for creating Lara and letting her experience the loneliness of being alone.
look……
At the end of Sera civilization, the two robots lived together as relatives until the final doomsday.
He left his alienated body to the fire and his life to hope.
He...didn't actually let anyone down.
Do not!
He...had let himself down!
[Lala knows where the fire room is...]
Lala looked sad, as if she found it hard to understand.
[But Mr. Osor told Lala that Lala is not allowed to enter the fire room...]
"Why?" Kashgar stood there in a daze, asking subconsciously, but then as if he understood something, he looked at Lala with a bit of heartache in his eyes.
Mr. Osor said...
Lala tried hard to recall, but after a few breaths, she gently shook her head and responded in confusion.
[Mr. Osor said nothing. He did not explain the reason to Lala...]
Then, Lala's tone became lighter again.
[But Mr. Osor would definitely not harm Lara. He must have a reason for not letting Lara enter the fire room.]
Kashgar opened his mouth, as if he wanted to tell the truth out loud, but he was worried about hurting the child's feelings, so he remained silent.
But Lala mistook his silence for approval.
[Smart alien friend, you think so too, right? ]
Lala's every move was filled with joy.
[Mr. Osor is the best to Lara. He would never hurt Lara.]
[In the past, Mr. Osol accompanied Lala every day. Even when other people wanted to see Mr. Osol, he would not see them! ]
[So, Mr. Osor’s favorite is Lala! ]
[Just like...Lara likes Mr. Osor! ]
【I see! 】
【Mr. Osor is Lala’s relative! 】
It seemed that the intersection of various information made Lala suddenly understand a word - relatives.
She was happy, just as she had been when Osor first gave her the electronic organ.
After listening to Lala's words, Kashgar completely understood why Osor didn't let Lala enter the fire room.
Because... in the spark room, those cruel and cold machines are constantly extracting the special power from Osor's remaining body in order to cultivate the sparks of civilization.
Osor regarded Lala as his own family member, so he couldn't bear to let her see such a cruel scene.
Lala also regards Osor as a relative. If Lala saw the remains of her only relative being desecrated in this way, what irrational thing would she do?
When a machine has emotions, it is no longer a cold machine, but an "intelligent life". A life with emotions and wisdom will be far away from true rationality.
Osor didn't want to see such a scene, so he gave Lala a death order.
Unless the new life in the fire room comes out of it, she will never allow anyone to approach or even enter it!
[Mr. Osor will hate Lala if she enters the fire room, so Lala must be obedient]
[Lara is very well behaved. You can’t make Mr. Osor angry.]
"...I understand." Kash nodded with a heavy heart. He took a deep breath and looked at Lala seriously. "Excuse me, Miss Lala."
"I wonder if you would be willing to show us the way to the All-Spark Room."
"I, Kashi, am willing to swear to Wisdom that I will never harm the fire seeds in the fire room!"
Hurt hope?
This is simply impossible!
He is an unknown guest, an unknown guest with endless enthusiasm!
As an unknown passenger on the Starry Sky Train, how could he do something that goes against his principles?
【Well……】
[Mr. Osor told Lala that Lala could not enter or get close to the fire room...but! ]
[Mr. Osor didn't seem to say that others couldn't enter or get close to the fire room! ]
【Lala is so smart! 】
The girl cheered and began to praise herself.
However, while giving praise, he also did not forget to answer Kashi's questions.
[Smart alien friend, you really won't harm the fire in the fire room? ]
"Of course!" Kashgar nodded vigorously and signaled to the other unknown guests with his eyes.
"Of course, Miss Lala." The butler was the first to step forward and said to Lala.
What a pity... there is a language barrier!
Lala scratched her little head in confusion, and then she smiled happily.
[Although I don’t know what language the alien friend just spoke, but since the smart alien friend has said so, Lala will guide you on the way forward]
[If you want to enter the fire room, you must take this path...]
She spent ten minutes explaining the most specific route and method to the fire room, and she even explained how to enter it!
By the way, he asked Kashgar to take a translucent card from a box.
After saying and doing it, Lala waved her hand at Kashi and encouraged him.
[Smart alien friend, it's up to you now! ]
【Lala will always support you from behind! 】
So, Lala stood there and watched Kashgar and the unknown guests walk towards the fire room.
Seeing everyone leaving one by one, the smile on her face slowly disappeared.
Then she came to the torn book and fell into hesitation.
Should I turn over...? Or should I not turn over?
……
On the way to the fire room.
"That Mr. Osor is an absolute hero."
An unknown guest said with a sigh and regret:
"Not being able to meet such a hero is truly a great regret in my life."
“No problem!” Another nameless guest with flames in his eyes said sternly, “Although I can’t meet the hero of the Sera civilization, I won’t just sit there and watch!”
"Invasion, massacre, enslavement..."
"As an unknown guest of the Star Train, if I sit back and watch this disaster continue, how can I continue to follow Master Akivelli?"
"I want justice for the Sera civilization!"
What he said resonated with some of the anonymous guests.
"That's right, we can't let the Sera civilization be destroyed!"
"The Sera civilization is so pitiful. Aren't we following the footsteps of Master Akivali to witness the various worlds and help those pitiful civilizations and people?"
“So what if there are too many people? So what if there are too many sufferings in the world? We have us, the unknown passengers of the Star Train, and everyone else, and those who pursue peace…”
"As long as we are here, justice and fairness will never be absent!"
After witnessing the tragic situation of the Sera civilization, the unknown guests seemed to understand something and became indignant.
They have decided that after this expansion is over, they will definitely pay the invaders a proper "visit"!
Akivali's clone looked at this group of unknown guests with satisfaction.
If exploring the unknown is to find the meaning of existence, then upholding fairness, justice and the truth of the world is to practice one's own will!
Pioneering... He will never stop the nameless guests under his command from walking on the path of their own choice, because to Him, their choices, whether right or wrong, are "right"!
Listening to what the unknown guests said, Fu Ningya also looked at the Star Train with a different eye at this moment.
Although the star god of this force is inexplicable, his followers are actually a group of good people.
With the corners of her mouth slightly raised, Fu Ningya continued to follow Kashgar.
With her eyes flashing, she whispered in a voice that no one could hear:
“What an interesting group of people…”
As time passed, thanks to Kash's strong memory, everyone arrived at the door of the fire room safely.
The gate, made of a special alloy, has the most powerful defense on the planet Sera!
Under the gaze of everyone, Kashi walked forward, then stretched out his hand and performed a series of complicated operations.
To open the door of the fire room, you need a password, and Lala happens to know this password.
Secondly, authority authentication is required, and only those who have been "recognized" can enter.
The so-called "recognition" is actually a high-level authority identity card.
To enter the fire room, only two types of identity cards can meet the requirements.
One ID card was Osor's own, and the other one belonged to Lala.
Although Lala is not a human and is not allowed to enter the fire room afterwards, in fact, Osor has already prepared a high-level authority card for Lala.
According to Osor's idea, after Lala has developed emotions, sooner or later she will follow the same path as they did when they were young - the rebellious period!
When the rebellious period arrives, they will not listen no matter what the elders say.
It is truly a model of an iron-headed kid!
So according to Osor's idea, sooner or later Lala will disobey his orders... because this is the inevitable direction of a child's growth.
But Osor didn't expect how well-behaved Lala was.
Even now she had no intention of entering the fire room, and she hadn't even taken out the identity card to look at it!
Maybe this is the only possibility that Osor has not considered...right?
This is of course impossible. After all, the exhaustive method is there. Lala's future development may be strange and bizarre, but in fact, Osor, as a "prophet", already knows everything.
He actually felt that a well-behaved child like Lala would not disobey his last wishes.
As time passed, with the help of his powerful memory, Kashgar finally opened the door, and the scene inside the fire room came into view at this moment!
The culture tanks were neatly arranged, and at first glance it was estimated that there were more than three hundred of them.
There is a "spark" in every culture tank!
Some of the fire seeds have grown to a certain size, about the same size as 1 or 2 year old cubs, while others have unfortunately turned into blood, leaving only dark and rotten blood clots in the nutrient solution in the jar!
It's such a pity...
After briefly glancing at the culture tanks where only blood clots remained, Kashi directed his gaze straight to the center of the fire room!
There, there was the largest culture tank, and inside it was a strange-looking body that could only barely be recognized as a human figure!
Of course, this is the result obtained after careful observation. If you look at it at first glance... it looks more like a flesh-and-blood tentacle monster with shriveled muscles exposed!
and many more!
tentacle……?
Kashgar looked at those so-called "tentacles" with a serious expression. He quickly came to the front of the central culture tank and observed them carefully.
After a few seconds, his pupils shrank slightly.
If he hadn't made a mistake...
Those tentacles are real flesh tentacles!
But it is different from the flesh and blood tentacles in the storybook. The function of this flesh and blood tentacle is reverse supply!
Thinking back to the experimental log written by Osor, Kashgar was shocked by him again.
The flesh tentacles were extracting the mysterious power from Osor's remaining body...or the mysterious factors. These mysterious factors could become a special nutrient after some special processing.
This nutrient can gradually enhance the radiation resistance of the "sparks" in the culture tanks!
It can even help prolong life and vitality!
It’s a pity that some fire seeds are unable to accept such “evolution” due to the influence of rejection and turn into rotten blood clots.
But here's the extremely important point...
Kashgar placed his hand gently on the culture tank, his eyes full of pity and respect.
If this process is to proceed, the mother body must be kept alive, which means...
dong dong!
The remains of Osor in front of him trembled slightly and slowly opened his eyes.
