I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones

bang——

Holding a rolling pin in its hand, the robot smashed a bug's head with force, and the juice splashed and landed on the robot's face.

crunch--

The gardening robot with large scissors cut off the head of a bug. He turned around and pierced the scissors into the body of a bug, then spun it and flung it away.

These robots stood behind Shuang Xin and the others, between the vast sea-like swarm and these three people.

It's just that it's not enough.

Dozens of bugs wrapped a robot, pressed it to the ground, and gnawed at the steel body. As the circuit was completely eroded, the robot struggled a bit, lost its movement, and was quickly eaten away.

Under the sheer quantity, even the Man of Steel is hard to resist.

But why?

Frostheart was puzzled.

Aren't these robots supposed to stay in the futuristic city and wait for their return?

At a time when the solar panels have been destroyed by sandstorms, such rash behavior is tantamount to suicide.

It is impossible for any human being to step forward to block the torrent of the insect swarm at this time.

Those robots didn't have to do this, they just need to stay in the future city, and if they are lucky, they can avoid these swarms and have a quiet end before the battery finally runs out.

why?

Shuang Xin looked far away, and she saw a young girl standing on the tallest building in the future city.

===506. Shackles===

"I'm sorry, everyone, for making you do these things."

Looking at the swarm of insects drifting towards, looking at this endless wasteland, Lin whispered.

Her eyes fell on the three camel bugs, and the robot's good vision allowed her to recognize the three of them immediately.

Without seeing Lu Jian, Lin felt as if some low-voltage pulses were generated in her logic circuit. This weak current was like human sadness, which made her feel lost.

But soon, Lin raised her head again.

Beside her, a huge loudspeaker used for broadcasting was erected. Lin looked at all the robots that were still able to move out of the future city, and she spoke.

"Creatures in front, please stop harming humans, otherwise we will take coercive measures."

The sound came through the horn and was transmitted to the insect swarm, but obviously, these insects who were submerged in instinct naturally ignored it, and the torrent did not weaken at all.

"When human beings are detected to be threatened, the robots in the future city will follow the procedures to carry out rescue."

Lin said.

She glanced at the robots that charged forward.

The companions who used to get along day and night, after hundreds of years of watching, finally met the existence that needed protection.

During tens of thousands of days and nights, Lin imagined countless their last moments.

Stopped due to irreparable damage, or lost power and fell asleep.

She never thought that she could usher in the last moment in this way.

At this moment, on the wasteland outside the future city, the communication systems of all the robots are operating at maximum power. With Lin as the center, a dense intelligence network has been established, corresponding to which is a steel line of defense to resist the swarm.

"Everyone, we have had billions of discussions, and many of our companions have fallen into a deep sleep. During the discussions, I have always held a point of view, that is, human beings have not abandoned us. They will come back one day, let us This place has regained its vitality, so that every sleeping companion can wake up again."

Lin's voice was transmitted to every robot through the communication network, and then sounded from the pronunciation devices on their bodies, and then passed into Shuang Xin's ears.

She couldn't understand why these robots would do this for an illusory thing.

A few minutes ago, they were even thinking of bringing the swarm into the future city and destroying the robots.

For Frost Heart, any promise is time-limited and conditional.

If she were to wait here for hundreds of years for those who might not come back again, she would definitely not stick to it.

"Now, I am very happy, because human beings have really returned, and we will light a flame for human beings to illuminate this long dark night."

The next moment, flames rose in front of the steel defense line formed by robots.

The fuel of these flames is the banners of the commercial street, the signboards of the noodle restaurants, the artificial trees in the ecological garden, and all the things that can be burned in the future city.

Even the corpses of those devoured robots ignited flames.

The flames burned the bugs, igniting some of the bugs that tried to cross the line of defense. The bright flames illuminated the desert that was darkened by the sandstorm, and reflected the faces of the three of them.

"This is the bonfire meeting. I still remember that people would dance around the bonfire to celebrate the passing of the old year and the arrival of the new year."

Having said that, Lin's voice became weaker.

As a communication center, her processor contains all the complicated information, wind, terrain, and temperature, in order to maximize the use of the environment and block the advance of the swarm.

This is a calculation that is difficult for supercomputers, and requires the use of the sensors of each robot.

This calculation also caused Lin's logical processing unit to be overloaded. She was like a human being who overused her brain, and her individual consciousness had become unclear, leaving only endless calculations.

As long as this calculation continues for a while, there are only two endings waiting for Lin.

Either the energy is completely exhausted by calculation and enters a permanent sleep.

Either the processor is overloaded and completely burned.

Even if it is not burned, her "personality" as a robot will no longer exist if she is supplemented with energy.

But facing such a situation, she had a smile on her face.

"You, you don't have to do this."

Shuang Xin muttered to herself, she never imagined before that, in this barren world, what warms her the most is not human beings, but the shining flames of these robots.

When humans in the old era chose to abandon themselves and become swarms, they left behind such a group of robots that were more like humans than them.

"Do not."

Lin seemed to have heard Shuangxin's words, and said in the softest tone before the gradually hot processor was completely burned.

"At no time should human beings be harmed, nor should they stand idly by while witnessing human beings in danger."

She retells the shackles that humans in this old age have confined to robots.

"I like this rule very much, because it means that we will never harm human beings, and we will not be powerless to see human beings threatened. My favorite, most favorite human being."

"It's the pledge we're most proud of."

She called the shackles "the oath."

"It's not worth it."

Shuang Xin said that she was getting closer and closer to the future city, and she could clearly see the skirt of the robot girl on the roof of the building swaying in the strong wind.

"This is just a restraint and restriction set by human beings to prevent you from rebelling. This is not your original will."

"It's not worth staying here for hundreds of years, even sacrificing yourself, for such an illusory thing."

Hearing Shuang Xin's words, Lin shook her head.

"No, it's worth it."

The voice of the robot girl is light, like a song that makes children sleep peacefully.

"Because this is the meaning of the oath, the vicissitudes of life will not change."

"Because we met you, all the waiting will bear fruit."

"Thank you for making our existence meaningful."

"We have discussed whether humans will come back 20 billion times, and each discussion has a large number of signals flowing, resonating at a frequency of tens of thousands of hertz, which is quite long for our thinking, but this time, we decided to leave the future It took only a moment for all the companions to rescue you from the city."

"Compared to falling asleep because of exhaustion of energy, this is our greatest pursuit now."

The defense line formed by the flames was quickly destroyed by the swarm. The robots fell apart and were swallowed by the flames. The once stagnant swarm moved again.

Shuang Xin and others entered the future city and passed by Lin.

"Thank you."

Lin said, and all the remaining robots rushed towards the swarm.

She knelt down on the ground, adjusted her body's functions to zero, and provided the last line of defense with all her strength.

When even consciousness became blurred, raindrops fell from the sky.

The centuries-old water drops fell in her eyes, like tears.

The swarm has flooded the future city.

Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!

===507. Forced squeeze===

When he opened his eyes, Lu Yi saw an unknown sky.

He felt a little strange, why is the sky gray?

Shouldn't he go through the wormhole, come to a planet made of metal, witness the huge old dominator in the sky and blow his head off?

When thinking of this, Lu Jian found that he seemed to be able to see his hand again.

Raising five hands, Lu Yi saw through the eyes of his palms that there seemed to be tentacles growing out of his body.

"It's over, it seems that the hair is gone."

Lu Jian noticed his bald head.

He tried to stand up, but found that the eye level was a bit strange.

Through the reflection of the metal ground, Lu Jian could see his appearance clearly.

The broken limbs are like plasticine that has been kneaded by a child after melting. The number of hands and feet is not right, and there are many more tentacles.
