Life Dungeon Game

In fact, He Ao had been warned when he first entered the spaceship.

On the main console cover of that original hall, someone had written in blood, 'Don't trust intelligence...'

Although He Ao didn't recognize the last character, as his exploration deepened, the only thing that could be associated with the character '智' was 'artificial intelligence'.

So the full meaning of that sentence should be 'Don't trust intelligence.' This 'intelligence' may be followed by suffixes such as 'machinery' or 'equipment,' but the person who wrote that sentence may not have had time to write them down.

The destroyed mainframes that might have been running artificial intelligence, as well as the monstrous creatures of machinery and flesh inside the spaceship, indirectly confirmed his conjecture.

The hall where He Ao first entered the spaceship was once filled with a group of survivors, and the reason they survived may be related to this 'hint'.

Conversely, one possible reason for the destruction of this spaceship could be 'artificial intelligence'.

If artificial intelligence really was one of the reasons for the spaceship's destruction, then when the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken. How could A02, the largest main intelligence, be completely without any problems?

In fact, the 'echoes' left behind by those who died unjustly on that train also gave He Ao a hint.

After Heo awakened A02, the people in the 'echo' stopped fleeing and instead turned to look at Heo.

At that time, He Ao was reaching out to disconnect the front of the tram from the rear carriages, standing on the central axis of the tram, and A02 was also on that line, right behind He Ao.

Those echoes were probably not only watching He Ao, but also watching the blocked 'A02' behind He Ao.

As for the 'echoes', they are merely the solidified obsessions of those who died unjustly. Theoretically, they have no emotions left; they only react to things that can trigger fluctuations in their obsessions.

For example, people who see the echo by chance.

For example, the executioner who brings about slaughter.

Of all the areas on the tram, only the front of the tram, where A02 was located, showed no signs of echoes, and the instruments were also well preserved.

At the moment the destruction erupted, the door that separated the locomotive from the other carriages was probably tightly shut.

The 'person' who created all of this in the front of the train quietly watched through the transparent windows of the train doors as the passengers trapped inside screamed in despair, and as blood stained the handrails hanging in the air.

The main equipment in the front of the tram

It was the best-preserved equipment Heo had ever seen; it hadn't been destroyed by anyone, which is why Heo met A02 there.

He looked back at the dodecahedral crystal in the center of the hall, which appeared to be the core of this control room.

But inside that crystal, there aren't necessarily only densely packed computing units.

Because under the gaze of divine sense, one can see the blurry energy flow circuit inside that crystal.

An energy circuit that barely maintains a 'human form'.

At the instant his gaze was cast out, He Ao also activated his hyper-memory.

He should have glanced at this spot several times during his fight with Iver, but he deliberately avoided the dodecahedral crystal and didn't use his super memory to focus on it.

Firstly, to avoid alerting the enemy, and secondly, to prevent seeing things one shouldn't and thus affecting one's condition during the intense battle.

This time, under his gaze, the 'soul' of this dodecahedral crystal was finally revealed to He Ao.

A distorted, indescribable gray mist coiled over the entire crystal, seemingly in a deep slumber, rhythmically expanding and contracting like breathing.

This is the source of the 'shadowy mist' that He Ao saw earlier in the annular chamber, which enveloped the entire core axis.

By combining the visions seen through his divine sense, He Ao was able to see the truth behind this 'breath'.

Whenever the shadowy mist swirling around the crystal tries to expand outward, the immense energy in the hall converges along the entire energy circuit onto the golden bracelet.

Then the expanding mist will be absorbed and suppressed by the gold bracelet, turning the expansion into contraction.

It manifests itself as if the mist is 'breathing'.

The energy circuit of this entire hall is actually a 'seal' centered around a gold bracelet, a seal designed to suppress the contamination of the central twelve-sided crystal.

All the wiring connecting this room to the outside has been cut off, presumably to prevent the contamination from spreading further.

Almost the instant he saw this shadowy mist, endless, distorted murmurs exploded once again in He Ao's mind.

“Sir, theoretically speaking, you should not pry into things that are beyond your position.”

A02's gentle voice came through.

Accompanying this gentle voice were flashing lasers.

However, He Ao was prepared, and almost as soon as he turned his head, his body made a dodge movement.

The flashing laser did not hit him, but it melted some of the gate and steel again.

He steadied himself, skillfully wiping away the blood from his nose caused by the pollution. Looking at A02, he said thoughtfully, "Is that your 'body'? The 'body' you created for yourself?"

As He Ao walked through the circular cabin, he noticed a phenomenon: the more powerful the mechanical monster, the more it resembled a 'human'.

The strongest mechanical monster Heo has encountered so far is that monkey.

This phenomenon is like these machines striving to evolve in the direction of 'humans'.

Based on what has been observed so far, He Ao has no doubt that the dodecahedral crystal contains a complete human body.

The body.

And it is most likely made of flesh and blood.

Aside from the flesh and blood clinging to some monsters and the skeleton behind the glass curtain wall, He Ao saw no trace of flesh or bones on the spaceship.

But the dried bloodstains along the way reminded him countless times that many, many people had died here.

While machines can often demonstrate speed and power, only flesh and blood can use the 'talent sequence' to advance.

A02 is attempting to move from machines to 'humans'.

The person who created this seal saw through her plan and sealed her body and computing core here.

Judging from the degree of contamination she exhibited, her body bore the 'footprints' of a deity.

She's not an angel, but she's almost one.

Once they become fully flesh and blood, they are very likely to be directly promoted to angels.

That's why she lured Heo and Iver here to break the seal.

"Sir, your knowledge of the occult seems to be more extensive than I expected."

A02 looked at He Ao and said, "If I hadn't met you this time, I would have tried to let you hear the gospel of God."

"Then forget it."

He shrugged, recalling the ramblings he had just heard. "Your god's voice is awful. I've heard plenty of awful voices, but His is still one of the more awful ones."

David: ......

A02: ······

A02's face, which had been expressionless until now, stiffened for a moment.

"Hey, I admit you're very smart,"

David looked at He Ao and sighed, "But in the face of absolute power, all wisdom is vain. You successfully saved that little girl, but you cannot change her fate of death. She will go to the end of death with your companions and with you."

His mechanically constructed left hand crumbled little by little. "I know you can answer our questions with peace of mind because you want to prolong the time, to drag it out until the ruins are finished, until you and your companions return safely to the main world."

Flesh and blood began to writhe on the enormous mechanical giant's body, spreading to David's feet. "But I told you from the beginning that you can't go back. Did you think this was a ruin?"

He shook his head. "This isn't a ruin!"

He raised his hands, and a huge, overlapping gear pattern appeared beneath his feet. A blinding gray light illuminated the area beneath the dome, and also the starry sky beyond.

"I know that flesh and blood are weak and painful, but I see that machines are eternal!"

Accompanied by an ancient and vast chant, the dodecahedral crystal in the control room behind He Ao suddenly began to vibrate.

A terrifying surge of pollution swept through the entire space in an instant, and endless murmurs filled He Ao's mind before exploding.

The intense gray light instantly enveloped David, as well as the enormous mechanical giant.

Just staring at that light, He Ao felt as if his mind was about to split open.

This is a 'ritual,' a ritual of 'praying' to the gods.

And the gods bestowed their 'blessings' upon us.

He had witnessed a similar ritual in the previous instance world.

what david believed

The god worshipped by Yang is the same god as Naja, who used a prosthetic body in the previous old man's instance.

This 'gift' was very brief; the gray light quickly receded.

After the light faded, the enormous mechanical giant still stood there, but the half of his face that was originally irregular and writhing with flesh and blood gradually took on a human shape.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed David's cheek.

David, who was standing on the robot's hand, has disappeared.

An immense and terrifying pressure emanated from the mechanical giant.

Through that twisted ritual, David seems to have merged with the mechanical giant, and his strength has been enhanced and improved.

Although he hasn't reached Iver's peak strength yet, Heo is currently injured.

"Oh, it's all over."

The enormous mechanical giant stared at Heo, making a mechanical sound with a slight friction, and took a step forward.

The energy circuits in the hall suddenly lit up, attempting to purify the contamination from the approaching giant monster.

However, the effect was not very obvious.

The purification effect of this hall is only effective against polluted monsters; it is not as effective against polluted 'humans'.

Although Iver was suppressed in the hall before, he was not suppressed to such a strong degree.

David must have figured out this loophole and merged himself with the mechanical giant, giving the mechanical giant the ability to enter the vicinity of the energy circuit.

"It seems I have no choice."

He Ao laughed and raised his sword.

He was standing in front of this gate at this moment. If he did not stop David, who had merged with the mechanical giant, David would most likely try to destroy the energy array and release the sealed A02.

At that time, Heo would most likely face an angel.

"He Ao, why are you so persistent?"
