Chapter 150 Death Mall

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 When time stasis was activated for the first time, Yu Zhesen passed the sentry at the intersection and hid behind a street tree at the last second before time resumed flowing.

Yu Qingxue stayed where she was, guarding his motorcycle. The commissioners of the Criminal Investigation Department who set up a traffic jam at the intersection didn't seem to notice that she was left alone in the blink of an eye.

"Shi Xin, you seem to be particularly dull today." Yu Zhesen carefully moved forward using the cracks and indentations of the buildings next to the road.

Shi Xin replied: "Your determination is very firm. I don't need to give you any advice. It's enough to help you wholeheartedly."

This answer made Yu Zhesen feel extremely at ease. As long as his heart is with him sometimes, he is not defenseless.

A few minutes later, Yu Zhesen arrived at the west side door of Tianheng Department Store.

In addition to the main entrance to the south and the safe passage side entrance to the east, this commercial building also has a west side entrance specially used for internal personnel to transport goods.

Zhong Yugu originally set up a group of people here to be responsible for surveillance, but after the explosion on the top floor, this group of people was transferred to the main gate in the south to participate in the rescue.

The current freight channel door only has an iron lock, which is not an obstacle at all to Yu Zhesen.

The gene was rewritten and the power of steel was activated. He reached out and melted the iron chain, pulled off the lock and threw it aside and pushed the door open.

There are two freight elevators ahead, one is under maintenance, but the other is still in use.

He complained: "It's amazing that the explosion and fire on the 12th floor did not cause the circuit of the commercial building to break."

"The 12-story arcade uses an independent energy supply system. This freight elevator only operates on the 1st to 7th floors, so it is normal for it not to be affected." Shi Xin analyzed.

A three-dimensional structural diagram of a commercial building appeared in Yu Zhesen's mind. Shi Xin didn't know where he got this thing from, and he knew the layout of the entire commercial building clearly.

"Then take the freight elevator to the 7th floor first...but the freight elevator has employee identification." Yu Zhesen said, taking out his mobile phone and opening Yiguang's virtual system interface.

"Commissioner A0717, long time no see." The AI ​​girl in red uniform waved to him.

"Stop talking nonsense and help me open the elevator." He said and put his phone close to the elevator's recognition system.

"Got it, it's a piece of cake." Yi Guang replied cheerfully.

Three seconds later, the elevator door opened smoothly.

"Commissioner A0717, Yiguang would like to remind you that hacking into civilian commercial databases is prohibited in principle, unless..."

After Yu Zhesen finished speaking, he turned off the virtual system and stuffed his phone back into his pocket. The AI ​​girl's voice stopped abruptly.

Shi Xin commented: "It's so cold, throw it away after use."

"I'm not Sun Minghang or Lu You, so it would be too stupid to invest my feelings in AI."

Yu Zhesen is a black man and a black man, even Lu You's child is not spared.

“Since it’s stupid to be emotionally invested in AI, why do humans continue to give AI anthropomorphic attributes?”

The elevator began to move upward, and Shi Xin asked a question that was difficult for him to answer.

AI anthropomorphism is a general trend, including the advancement of bionic human technology, which has begun to give more and more human characteristics to mechanical life forms.

Although most of the bionic people used in the service industry have the appearance of assembly lines, their core depends on what kind of AI they are given.

If a highly intelligent AI like Yiguang was injected into a bionic human, it might be no different from an elite Security Bureau commissioner, right?

"Because humans are emotional animals, they spend their entire lives looking for something to rest on and a destination for their emotions." Shi Xin suddenly said in a very philosophical tone. "Giving AI anthropomorphic attributes is to entrust your emotions to your own creation.<

/p>

"People always like to do such things, so in the theology of the old era, God created humans in the West, and Nuwa created humans in the East. Now you are creating artificial life like AI. If one day in the future, the era of humans ends

, ushering in the era of new mechanical life, new myths will be created."

"Gods will fall in love with their creations and entrust their world to them. This is an eternal law. Or to put it another way I prefer, parents love their children deeply and give everything that belongs to them

The inheritance was passed on to them."

The freight elevator stopped at the seventh floor, and Shi Xin's philosophical tirade came to an end.

Yu Zhesen said to her: "Is it gone? I still have some unfinished ideas."

"Now you have to concentrate on fighting. The opponent is a veteran who has participated in the pioneering pioneer group. In terms of combat experience, he must be above you."

She paused and continued: "But I also prepared something special for you."

Yu Zhesen seemed to feel that the blood flowing all over his body was accelerating. His heartbeat was stronger than ever before, sending sufficient blood to the whole body, allowing every muscle and joint to be adjusted to the most suitable state for fighting.

"What is this?" He spoke directly and made an excited voice.

"The benefit brought by the last expansion is that the increased capacity is just enough to preserve this new ability." Shi Xin replied, "It is the 'Blood of God' under the [Love] category."

"The name sounds very high-end, but is it actually just about enhancing the body's athletic ability?" Yu Zhesen said with a smile.

But he didn't mean to dislike it. It was better than nothing. Besides, physical strengthening was still very valuable to him without the protection of an exoskeleton.

Fierce gunfire came from the floor above. The sound was from a Sword03 assault rifle, which meant that the Security Bureau or the National Defense Force were fighting the enemy on the upper floor.

Relying on the structural diagram of the commercial building in his mind, Yu Zhesen quickly found the way to the upper floor - the folding elevator that had stopped running.

He stepped directly on the steps of the folding elevator and ran up. The "Blood of God" gave him a running speed that was almost comparable to that of an exoskeleton armor.

The 8th floor of the department store, where the exchange of fire occurred.

All members of the reconnaissance team that suddenly encountered an explosion on the 12th floor were seriously injured. The explosion was so powerful that even the Silver Flash exoskeleton could not withstand it.

The rescue force dispatched by Zhong Yugu includes an eight-person special operations team and a team of 12 elite members of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Security Bureau. All members are equipped with exoskeletons and Sword03 assault rifles, and carry military first-aid equipment.

But the rescue team was ambushed on the 8th floor and had been blocked here for ten full minutes.

Their opponents were four masked militants. The weapons used by the opponents were also Sword03 anti-prosthetic assault rifles. Not surprisingly, they were seized from the destroyed reconnaissance team on the 12th floor.

There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, but the four militants caught the rescue team off guard by ambushing and laying booby traps.

These people are all retired soldiers from the original pioneering group. They have very high shooting standards and military qualities. Compared with them, the "elites" sent by Zhong Yugu are slightly inferior.

After ten minutes of fighting, the four militants each flexibly moved and changed positions within the area they were defending, firmly controlling several passages connecting the upper and lower floors.

The gunfire stopped.

Blood flowed down the out-of-service shopping mall elevator, and the sound of painful gasping came from the front.

Yu Zhesen saw a defense soldier leaning on the elevator handrail, with bullet holes in his exoskeleton armor.

Farther outside the elevator entrance, there are two corpses lying on the ground. Half of their armor was blown to pieces by booby traps, and the metal fragments were mixed with the blurred flesh and blood.

Yu Zhesen stopped walking up. He saw a death prediction picture in his mind - he would be hit by a bullet, and then he would gasp and wait for death like the defense soldier leaning on the elevator handrail.
