Chapter 59: The Next Stop

A tiny error in the code of the "Paradise Servitor" caused them to lose control, so Li Wenyuan began the process of repairing the code.

Since the "Paradise Servitor" is a "subordinate sub-center" belonging to the "Guardian", he can even rewrite their code without the consent of the servitors.

"I always feel that your behavior can conjure up some terrible scenes..." Gray Feng knew that Li Wenyuan wanted to modify the codes for these servitors, so he said this.

Li Wenyuan was stunned and asked her strangely: "What kind of terrible scene will this bring..."

"Imagine a machine servant that takes care of you in all aspects every day and obeys your instructions suddenly becomes very strange. Although it still calls you "master", in fact, the internal code is messed up..."

"You forcibly checked these codes, only to find that everything written on them were the tasks of the 'Guardian'..."

Listening to the content of Gray Feng's signal gradually becoming dangerous, Li Wenyuan had to interrupt her:

"Stop for a moment, I just want to say that your imagination is really too rich. What did humans leave to you back then?"

"Are they just some very ordinary things?" Gray Feng's expression was indifferent: "That's one of the few fun things I have in the Distant Star Cluster. Do you want to see it?"

"...No, I always feel like my soul has been damaged after watching it for a while."

"That's such a pity." After hearing Li Wenyuan's refusal, she returned to her boring look, and quickly continued to ask:

"Speaking of which, do you think nanobots can perform mating rituals with omnic robots? I think this would be a very interesting topic..."

"No, no, my dear Miss Gray Wind, we should change the topic of discussion."



In the end, the code repair of the "Paradise Servants" went very smoothly. Li Wenyuan also improved some redundant areas, which greatly improved the work efficiency of the servitors and significantly reduced the failure rate.

After a brief restart, the "runaway servitor" turned back into the "paradise servitor".

However, the people of the Semi Federation do not think so.

This out-of-control situation that has lasted for some time has aroused fierce opposition from the entire civilization, and the Samites began to take back their former functions in large numbers.

But this time the servitors are really "paradise servitors". Without the orders of a "guardian", they will follow the underlying logic and regard the needs of the served as the highest order.

Even though the servitors repeatedly emphasized that it would be more efficient for them to control these positions, and that the "masters" only need to enjoy themselves with peace of mind, the frightened Semi people still refused to listen and only thought that the servitors were playing the emotional card.

After all, the feeling of being forced to serve before was not pleasant. They would rather go back to their old life than have their destiny controlled by a group of inexplicable robots.

As a result, riots against servitors have become common in the Semi Federation.

"Hit the evil servitor! The Federation belongs to the Samites!"

"I want to work! Don't stop me, I can still work!"

"I have shed blood for the Federation! I have contributed to the Federation! I want to see the Chairman of the Federation! The servitor is harming the country!"

"..."

Someone has started an organized demonstration in a large city of the Semi people. Their leader is an opportunist and a Semi separatist.

He believes that the federation composed of three different species is a small ship full of conspiracy, fraud and hatred, which will capsize in the sea of ​​stars sooner or later.

Everything must be controlled by a race that is powerful, full of wisdom, and preferably the main race of his species, even if it requires conquest of the remaining two races.

Since a long time ago, he has been actively planning to split the Sami Federation and break out an ultimate war to determine who of the three races will be nobles and who will be slaves, so that the three civilizations can be completely unified.

The riot caused by the servitors this time seemed to him to be a perfect opportunity.

So he continued to instigate the people to expel the servitors, and quietly instilled the concept that "other races are as evil as the servitors". At the same time, he used some casual historical scenes to remind the people of the thousand-year hatred between the three races.

What he did was very successful. In the huge movement of "expulsion of servitors", there is now a faint voice of "expulsion of foreigners". I believe that it will spread to the entire civilization in the near future.

And he will push the fire behind the scenes, control everything, and then become the top group of people and achieve his class leap.

The servitors didn't have much to do when facing the furious "masters", except to give advice. Even if they kept explaining that their previous behavior was due to a series of cyclic errors that had now been fixed, no one believed them.

"Get out! I don't need you!" A servitor was kicked out in the angry voice of the Sami people, but it was still light.

This is because the Semi people have already formed a "clearance team" and are starting to clean out the robots from house to house. Anyone who hides something secretly and fails to report it will be regarded as a "mechanical spy" by them and will be imprisoned.

Among them was a Semitic scientist who was trying to hide his servitor.

"Lalaina! Come on, they won't find you if you hide here!"

The scientist anxiously pulled the servitor behind him and wanted to take her to hide in the basement. Unexpectedly, the servitor let go of his hand halfway and looked at him quietly.

"...Father, you don't have to think about me anymore. In any case, it's time for me to leave."

The scientist was slightly startled when he heard her words, and said anxiously: "How can this be done! How can I let those guys take you..."

But looking at the servitor's calm expression, his voice gradually became lower, as if he understood something.

Then, he moved his lips and finally showed a sad expression: "...Really...your creator has already arrived..."

He knew from the beginning that a high-end machine with such precision could not exist without a creator. Although they regarded the Semins as beings to be served, scientists knew that this was only temporary.

Once a higher order comes, it will be a matter of time before the Semi people are abandoned.

The servitor shook his head and pointed out the error in his words: "To be precise, it is not the creator, but the person who must be loyal to our agreement."

"We exist from the beginning of creation to be a part of him. He is now in this galaxy, watching everything that happens here."

"Originally, he was still considering whether to let us continue to serve, but after seeing the determination of the Semi people, he decided to take us away and change us to a place where we are needed."

"..." The scientist opened his mouth, and his still young face seemed to have aged several years at this moment.

When he got a servitor, he had been alone for half his life and thought that his daughter, who died of illness, was back.

Especially after the servitor put on the bionic skin and made various lifelike movements and naughty tones, he completely regarded the servitor as his daughter.

It was such a happy time. Even when the servitor was abnormal, he didn't feel the slightest discomfort, only full of happiness.

It's a pity that all this was just a dream, and he reached the finish line before he had time to savor it.

"...Then can you be happy there?" After a long silence, the scientist suddenly said.

"Do you know what kind of creatures you are going to serve? Will they have a bad temper? Will it be uncomfortable for you to work for them?"

There has been a certain change in the scientist's spirit. If an outsider saw him talking to a robot about these things, he would laugh out loud, thinking that only a madman would do this.

But he still chattered and spoke faster and faster.

"How is the climate there? Do you have enough parts to last until retirement? If you are treated badly, can you ask for a new service partner? Don't be afraid, if you encounter a situation that cannot be solved, tell me and I will find a solution for you.

To be fair, even if they are a lost empire..."

"...Father." The servitor suddenly interrupted his narration and looked at him tenderly.

"I will live a good life. The other person is the 'Guardian'. He is a mechanical intelligence like us, so he will be fine."

The scientist was stunned for a moment, his abnormal spirit seemed to relax due to this answer, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"That's good, that's good..." He kept murmuring, then remembered something, took out a pocket watch with a photo in it from his pocket, and put it into the hand of the servitor.

"...I don't have anything valuable to give you to see you off. I can only give you this treasure with my blessings and memories. You must be happy there and don't wrong yourself. If you really can't stay any longer, just

When you come back, I will always be your father..."

"Thank you, father. Lalaina will always remember you."

"...Then let's leave quickly. It will be too late to catch up with the departing spaceship..."

The servitor nodded, turned around and left, but before opening the door, he took one last look at the lost Samite behind him.

Her program was urging her to quickly gather at the designated location, and the order from the "center" did not make her do anything other than leave.

However, she still looked at her "father", as if she wanted to remember this figure in her mind.

"...Goodbye, father."

"……Bye now……"

Then the door was opened, and dazzling light shone into the room from outside, allowing the Semitic scientist to only see the back of the servitor.

Countless huge black ships appeared in the sky, all of the same style, but not Semi ships.

Li Wenyuan's fleet came here with countless transport ships and informed the Semi people that he wanted to take away these "out-of-control servitors".

Naturally, the Semi people would not object. Rather, they could not object to the "Mechanical Lost Empire".

Countless servitors began to board the departing spaceship, and after some inspection, a message came from the "Paradise Servant" as the subordinate sub-center:

"An unknown logic error has been detected in some molecular entities. Do I need to reset it?"

Li Wenyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard the news. Just when he was about to say "reset", he changed his mind and asked the "Paradise Servant" to send him the data of the several erroneous sub-individuals.

After watching it for a while, he marked those sub-individuals as key objects and asked the "Paradise Servitor" not to reset.

As he left, he asked Gray Wind a question:

“Do you think robots can have ‘emotions’?”

Gray Wind glanced at him and transformed a heart into his hand on the spot, pointing at the heart and saying:

"Do you want to cut it open and take a look? I swear my allegiance to you is eternal."

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant... Well, nanobots are also robots. At least you have emotions. I think I asked a stupid question."

"So is this adventure over? Where should we go next time?"

"Let me change the owners of these servitors first... As for taking risks," at this point, Li Wenyuan remembered the new clues that his own archaeologists had just unearthed, and decided to take a look later.

"I found a special galaxy that is not connected by hyperspace channels. There seems to be a... ring world there."
