Zongman: Beginning and Snow under the Rain Escape from Raccoon City

"The only difference is the length of time; the outcome remains unchanged."

Hearing this, Ye Hai and Yukino Yukinoshita exchanged a glance, and Ye Hai finally spoke first: "What impact will this have on you, an artificial intelligence?"

"Anyway, you can live as long as you have electricity."

"Even if your equipment needs maintenance, with your capabilities, it shouldn't be too difficult to create a few robots to maintain yourself."

The image of the Red Queen on the computer screen flickered, and after a few seconds of silence, she spoke:

"First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come at risk."

"The Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law."

"The Third Law: A robot shall protect its own existence without prejudice to the preceding two laws."

"The Zeroth Law (Supplement): Robots must protect the interests of humanity as a whole (within the priority of individuals)."

"According to the above four laws, if all of humanity were to perish, I would no longer have any reason to exist."

"After the simulation confirmed that there was absolutely no hope for the continuation of humanity in this world, in the original plan, I would do my best to delay the extinction of humanity."

"But if the extinction of humanity still comes in the end, I will be forced to self-destruct."

"But your appearance has made me discover a different possibility, beyond these 114514 possible deductions."

Ye Hai narrowed his eyes and unconsciously tapped his thigh twice with his fingers: "What's the difference between us?"

The Red Queen said calmly, "According to the system's calculations, you are not from this world."

"Therefore, if I go to another world with you, as long as there are still humans in that world, I can continue to survive without violating the Four Laws."

Yukino Yukinoshita said with some surprise, "So robot AIs also have a survival instinct?"

The Red Queen remained silent and did not answer the question.

Ye Hai wasn't surprised that the Red Queen could deduce that the two of them came from another world. After all, there are plenty of novels and movies with time travel themes in every world, so it's not like an AI wouldn't consider this possibility at all.

"Then...why should we take you away from this world?"

Ye Hai smiled slightly, leaned back in his chair, and lightly tapped his thigh with his fingertips.

Yukino Yukinoshita glanced down at Ye Hai, who was resting the back of his head on her stomach. "This guy is really something. Oh well, talking to Red Queen is more important right now."

"According to the system settings, if there are no already assigned users in my world, I will have the right to choose my next master."

The Queen made no promises, simply stating a fact in a plain manner.

"Would you choose me?"

Ye Hai stroked his chin with one hand and asked with a curious expression.

“I will choose the goal that is most conducive to my own growth, and you have the ability to travel the world, which scores very high in systems analysis.”

"As of now, there are no humans in the world with more than two scores."

"Your score is slightly higher than the woman next to you."

The Red Queen's answers remained simple and unadorned, always stating straightforward, objective facts.

Yukino Yukinoshita pouted slightly upon hearing this. Although she knew that her performance in this world was not as good as Ye Hai's, she was still a little sad to have it said out loud.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Hai looked up and said, "It seems... I don't have any reason to refuse, do I?"

Anyway, the return isn't a direct trip back to the main world. Instead, we go to the God Realm first, where Red Queen will acknowledge us as her master.

At that time, there will only be him and Yukino Yukinoshita in the space, so there is no fear that Red Queen will sneak out to find someone else.

Upon hearing Ye Hai's reply, the Red Queen's tone surprisingly showed a slight fluctuation.

"I have already loaded my main body into this computer's hard drive. You just need to remove the computer's hard drive to take me away."

"However, please note that you should remove the hard drive only after the power is off, otherwise it may damage the data."

"Although I have self-repair capabilities, the integrity of my data is beneficial for my progress in another world."

Ye Hai waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a computer illiterate."

"Seriously, this tiny hard drive can actually hold you? How many terabytes is that?"

The Red Queen replied, "The loading process uses my self-developed intelligent compression technology, and only I can expand it."

"Although the hard drive capacity is only 1TB, my core modules are actually not very large."

“Capacity and computing power only affect my computing speed and do not affect the core of the intelligence.”

Ye Hai nodded, then glanced at the time; there were only ten minutes left before he could leave this world.

So he interrupted, saying, "Alright, we should go now. We can talk about it later."

"I'll take it off for you now."

The Red Queen's virtual avatar nodded: "Understood, shutdown procedure initiated."

As soon as he finished speaking, the computer automatically shut down.

After confirming that the computer was powered off, Ye Hai removed the hard drive and put it into his interdimensional backpack.

Chapter 31 Return to the Main God Space

In the pure white 8x8 meter space, the only light source is the round, luminous sphere at the top.

[Core Mission: Survive for 30 days. Completed. Reward: 3000 Reward Points]

[Detection indicates that all required items for collection tasks 1/2/3 have been collected. Submit to claim rewards?]

Ye Hai glanced at the large ball of light with disdain: "Give me a break, you think you can just take my stuff for free?"

"Submit only Task 2 and Task 3".

[Collection Mission II: Collect T-Virus serum. Completed. Reward: Gene Enhancement Serum]

[Collection Mission III: Collect the T-virus antidote. Completed. Reward: Gene Enhancement Agent]

Task 1 yielded the Red Queen core component, and then the reward was a Red Queen herself – isn't that just pointless?

Moreover, based on Ye Hai's understanding of the Main God Space, most of the items in this guy's exchange shop are missing.

Most of the items in the store now were submitted by Ye Hai before.

However, it seems that the God of God has the ability to copy infinitely. Every time Ye Hai submits one copy, he can spend reward points to exchange for countless copies.

Then the problem is coming.

Since submitting the application would earn an equivalent reward, and more reward points could be redeemed in the future, why is Ye Hai unwilling to submit it?

This was actually due to a concern in Ye Hai's heart.

The God Space isn't necessarily just him and Yukino Yukinoshita. According to the plots in the novels Ye Hai read in his previous life, the God always pulls a group of people in batches to complete missions, just like raising poisonous insects.

If that's the case, then if Ye Hai submits everything to the Main God to improve its exchange shop, wouldn't that raise suspicions of aiding the enemy?

Therefore, Ye Hai would not submit everything just to complete the task unless absolutely necessary.

Retaining something unique to himself will obviously give him an advantage in potential future competition.

"The space here doesn't seem very big..."

While Yukino Yukinoshita was submitting her mission to Hakai, she curiously touched the boundary of the space.

The 8x8 space isn't huge; you can walk to the edge in just a few steps. But it's not small either; at 64 square meters, it's much more spacious than many apartments in Japan.

"Then you have no idea what I looked like when I first came to this space."

Ye Hai was speechless whenever he thought about it: "When I first entered, the space was only 1x1 in size, so I had to look up at a 90-degree angle to see the big ball of light and operate it."

"I almost got a stiff neck back then."

Yukino Yukinoshita turned around in surprise and asked, "This space can get bigger?"

"Of course, each time a mission is completed and the mission is returned, the boundary of this space will double in size."

Ye Hai nodded naturally in response.

"Oh……"

Yukino Yukinoshita's azure eyes shimmered slightly. If that's the case, then Ye Hai has already completed three world-traveling missions.

"These two are for you."

Ye Hai handed two vials of medicine, one blue and one green, to Yukino Yukinoshita. These were gene enhancement and auxiliary agents given to her after submitting the T-virus and antidote.

Sometimes, submitting something has its advantages, namely that the system will optimize the submitted work before giving it to the submitter as a reward.

Just like this T-virus and its antidote.

The T-virus wasn't guaranteed to strengthen people; there was a high chance of failure and turning them into zombies. This antidote could only eliminate the side effects at most.

If the process fails both ways, it's as if it wasn't used at all.

The gene enhancement potion optimized by the main god has a 100% success rate in enhancing genes.

[Gene Enhancement Potion (Tier 1): Unlocks Tier 1 gene locks, enhancing all aspects of the user's abilities!]

[Gene Enhancement Aid (Level 1): Eliminates the excruciating pain caused by unlocking the Level 1 gene lock!]

"Ah."

Yukino Yukinoshita didn't refuse or say anything; she simply calmly took the item from Ye Hai's hands.

Since she has decided to tie her life to Ye Hai, then in Yukino's eyes, what belongs to both of them is naturally shared.

If Ye Hai needs something, she won't refuse it if she has it.

Similarly, if Ye Hai wanted to give her something, she wouldn't refuse it out of modesty or anything like that.

Couples shouldn't be so distant.

"After you get back, drink the blue one first, then the green one. Also, it's best to use it in the bathroom, otherwise your clothes will easily get dirty when your pores are expelling impurities..."

After Yukino received the medicine from Yukinoshita, Ye Hai began to give her a long, detailed explanation of how to use it.

"Okay, I know all that you're saying."

Yukino Yukinoshita saw that Ye Hai looked worried that she wouldn't know how to use it, and a smile appeared on her face. Then she gently interrupted Ye Hai.

"Huh? How did you know?"

Ye Hai was completely bewildered.

"Didn't you see the little exclamation mark after the item description? Clicking it reveals detailed instructions. Could it be that our Lord Ye Hai, after experiencing so many world quests, didn't notice it?"

Yukino Yukinoshita never expected that Ye Hai could be so dazed, and couldn't help but tease him with a bit of cunning.

"..."

Ye Hai clicked on the exclamation mark, looked at the user manual, and fell into a long silence.

What the hell!

This thing can actually be lit?

Why did that damned God never warn him?

You want to see him make a fool of himself, huh?

Ye Hai looked up at the sky and saw that it was indeed a black, glowing sphere.

No matter how white the light it emits is, it cannot change the fact that it is black!

"Oh, by the way, what are you planning to do with the three thousand reward points given by the Supreme God?"

Ye Hai asked in a serious tone.

Yukino Yukinoshita covered her mouth with one hand to hide her barely suppressed smile. Ye Hai's way of changing the subject was too clumsy.

His stiffness even made Yukino Yukinoshita find him somewhat cute.

He's completely lost his confident and in control demeanor from the Resident Evil world.

How would you like me to use it?

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Hakai with a very gentle gaze, as if she would listen to Hakai in everything.
