Chapter 336 The road not envisaged
In this world, if those gods want to destroy human beings, it is just a matter of thought, but other than that, it is not easy for any race to do this.
At the same time, no race would spend a lot of time caring for a group of ants, but they were in a confrontation where war could break out at any time.
"You... don't understand anything at all!!" Rick wanted to retort, but considering the consequences of angering Xuan Fang, he calmed down a little.
"I don't need to understand either."
Xuan Fang glanced at Hubi next to Rick. Although he didn't say it explicitly, it was already a warning to Rick.
At this moment, no one spoke, but some people in the settlement quietly approached Xuan Fang.
Rick has always been the only voice in this settlement, so the rules he set are absolute and no one will violate or doubt them. However, these people do not really trust Rick completely, and Xuan Fang's words woke them up.
It may not be appropriate to say this, but the emergence of another will gave them different choices in despair.
When one road leads nowhere, or you never see the end, another road may not be a better choice.
"Rick, calm down." Cloni finally stepped forward and said.
Although Rick cares about everyone's safety, if he is closer to anyone, it is actually only Croni.
This is also the basis for him to build a line of defense in his soul. He does not have so many fetters.
At this time, Rick also figured out the key. Although Xuan Fang's actions ruined their previous efforts, it was still a good method.
At least, he no longer has to maintain that kind of false lies to maintain everyone's hope.
Moreover, he doesn't have the means or ability to stop Xuan Fang and drive him away? Or use his majesty to make everyone give up those tools and weapons.
To be honest, Rick was already a little confused at this time.
"Rick...seems very angry." Hubie didn't know if he had been stimulated before or what happened, but he could already feel a little emotion.
This is a good thing. When she has her own complete emotions and feelings, she is no longer a pure machine.
When the Ex-Machina was first created, it relied on a fixed program to run and had a way of self-growth, but it had no emotions.
Even the god who created them, the god of doubt, couldn't do anything about this. In the end, because he couldn't find the answer he wanted, he penetrated his own marrow and fell into a deep sleep.
Afterwards, the Ex-Machina evolved in this war at a speed that exceeded everyone's expectations, even the Divine Race.
A group of monsters that feed on war and evolve crazily.
"Huh...I'm fine." After calming down, Rick's eyes returned to the silence that was like a pool of stagnant water before.
Xuan Fang frowned slightly. This method was actually suppressing his instincts and emotions. If it hadn't been for Hubi's appearance, Rick would have gone crazy if he continued to drag it on.
Rick turned around and returned to his residence. He did not continue to care about outside matters, but concentrated on studying the information obtained from the goblin battleship. With Hubi's cooperation, he gradually gained knowledge of the Ex-Machina and arithmetic.
and technology.
Xuan Fang is also conducting his own "experiment" step by step.
Although it is a bit cruel to say this, Xuan Fang will not help these people with the naive idea of saving people just because they are also "human beings".
He just wants to try and see the possibilities of human beings. If he fails, he will not blame himself like Rick and attribute everything to himself.
…
In this way, a year passed quietly.
"Hurry up! Lift this over there, the assembly is almost complete!"
"Be careful! Don't break it!"
"This technique is very dangerous! Don't touch it! Find a container alone!"
"yes!"
Xuan Fang stood on a high platform, overlooking the busy group of people below. In a huge underground cavity with a diameter of more than a kilometer, a huge energy device similar to the goblin god furnace was being built.
There is no sun in this world, so it will be difficult for races that need to rely on some primitive energy to create the conditions necessary for survival to survive.
Strictly speaking, it is truly a miracle that humans can survive to this day.
With tools, hunting and gathering will be much easier, and the chance of survival will also increase a lot. At least you will no longer be defenseless against higher-ranking races that are one or two taller.
Food is no longer the most difficult thing. Xuan Fang proposed the idea of building an energy furnace, but he did not intervene directly. Instead, he asked some people who were proficient in goblin language to go to the goblin battleship that Rick and the others had found before.
He got back the parts and some structural data. If he interfered with these, the purpose of the experiment would be gone.
Facts have proved that in desperate situations, the potential of human beings is indeed amazing. In just one year, the technology of the goblin species was not only completely cracked, but there was no problem at all in its use.
"Maybe you are right." Rick walked over and said with a sigh.
This settlement seems to have been shrouded in a shadow since he took over, just like the sky where the sun cannot be seen, and they cannot see hope.
Of course, humans before this did not even have the courage or ability to look directly at the world.
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't use my own strength to help you." Xuan Fang turned his head and glanced at Rick and Hubie beside him.
He really didn't take any action, and people would occasionally die when he was out.
But people from the surrounding settlements who had difficulty even surviving were gradually found, and one after another, tens of thousands of people gathered!
Once you have tools and a certain amount, productivity will also increase. Naturally, you don't have to worry about food supply, and you can fully support these people.
Even this underground cavity was artificially dug to its current depth in order to imitate goblin technology.
It is not enough to resist the destruction of those monsters, but if it is a monster species, it will be very difficult to get here.
"Analysis completed, Elf Furnace, the latest technology product, has a similarity of 3% with goblin technology, creator: human... Analysis error, judgment, error... Analysis failed... Recalculate unknown technology, reconstruct arithmetic system...
..." Hubie said something strange.
In fact, she tried to analyze the things created by these people, but the analysis failed. In fact, although the driving force of all technological products in this world is also elves.
But the Ex-Machina is undoubtedly the most peculiar one. Scientific and technological means have made the elves similar to the bodies of other races, and they can even actively absorb elves from the outside world to supplement their own consumption.
Although humans cannot achieve the goal of possessing elves, as long as they have energy, they can still achieve it by learning from the goblin technology for development.
"Hey! Are you okay? You're smoking!" Rick was startled and found smoke coming from Hubie's head again.
This happens whenever Hubi talks about topics like the heart.
Because this is a part that cannot be explained by calculation, it is easy to fall into a dead end in calculation logic.
But because of her own bug, she has some emotions, so she can't help but try to explore and explain the existence of "heart".
"...It's okay...Is Rick concerned about Hubi?" Hubi recovered and looked up at Rick.
"No." Rick turned his head to the side, still unwilling to admit that he was a lolita.
Although everyone has already agreed, even Hubie feels that her appearance is set according to the preferences of human males.
"The Ex-Machina's ability is very special. If you can completely subdue her, and then let her complete the data upload, the entire Ex-Machina's technology will be enough to make the human species instantly rank among the strongest races." Xuan Fang said with a nonchalant expression.
said.
He knew very well that Hubie would not be angry because of such words, unless her relationship was more perfect. As for Rick, he could even use the state of opening the heart lock. It was not impossible for him to do this.
"That's not how the heart works, you bastard!" Rick cursed angrily. Although the misunderstanding was resolved, he still rejected Xuan Fang's attitude.
It can only be said that the conflict between their ideas is too great. Even if he knew that resisting would mean death, Xuan Fang would not suppress his feelings, but would explode without any scruples, using blood and war to let the world remember the human species.
"The analysis is complete. Xuan Fang wants to get Hubi...use Hubi to invade the inside of the Ex-Machina and reject...the third party."
Hubie didn't know how he analyzed it, but he came to this conclusion after a short circuit. Then he hid behind Rick and looked at Xuan Fang warily.
Xuan Fang: "..."
I'm not a fucking lolicon!
Chapter completed!
