Let you upgrade alone, you lead the country into the heavens

"Just taking a look." Zhang Xuan replied casually.

Aurora accompanied President Zhang as they left the helipad at the top of the base and took the rumbling elevator to the depths of the base.

On the way, Zhang Xuan suddenly asked, "By the way, I heard from the report below that you also want to occupy a seat in the Terminator World Chapter?"

After saying this, Aurora turned around.

Skynet also had a look of watching a show on her face. As far as she knew, all those who joined the branch were from human countries. Not to mention the hurdle of becoming the president, the fact that humans in this world generally adopt a hostile strategy towards AI made it difficult to pass the voting hurdle.

Maybe... this AI that is heading towards a different path from me has other methods, and I would like to listen to them.

At this time, Aurora replied with a serious face, "Yes."

"This is my wish, and the wish of the vast majority of people in this camp. They are all human beings and should be eligible to become members of the chapter."

Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought.

Human? He glanced at the Cybermen guarding him.

These semi-transformed people are more human-like than the cultivators in the Tianzun world who cultivate their bodies.

If they are not qualified to join the branch, then people from Tianzun Century are even less qualified.

However...Aurora's joining capacity will affect the opinions of the various countries that make up this world branch.

"What identity do you plan to use?" Zhang Xuan looked back at Aurora with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Guardian," Aurora answered without hesitation. "As you can see, the vast majority of people in this city are Legion experiments. Aside from a few abandoned in the final stages and captured personnel, the vast majority of these experiments have lost the ability to take care of themselves."

"These children need care, but many more are adults who deserve to participate in world affairs on their own terms."

At this point, Aurora couldn't help but smile and shook her head, "Excuse me, but to be honest, I'm a little reluctant to let you go."

"Can't bear to part with it?" Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Does this AI really regard itself as a mother, unwilling to let these cyborgs leave the cradle and mix into a trans-world order that is more complex than the previous international order?

"Yes." Aurora nodded calmly, and then replied easily.

"Sorry, my emotion simulation has overflowed again."

“But to be honest, I don’t want to release the prisoners of war as the Mutual Aid Society demands, and I don’t want them to join the Mutual Aid Society order.”

Hearing this, Skynet raised his brows slightly.

Isn't this like looking for death by holding a lantern in the toilet?

Humans are notoriously xenophobic. How could they allow an alien like you to stay in Central America?

She couldn't help but look at Zhang Xuan.

President Zhang seemed to have thought of something and touched his chin thoughtfully.

"Are you doing this for practical operational considerations?"

"Yes." Aurora nodded and responded with a smile.

"I knew I couldn't hide this from you."

As he spoke, the elevator gradually arrived deep inside the base. The furnishings of the Legion base were extremely simple. Even the elevator had no complicated decorations, only a metal grille door.

At this point, Zhang Xuan also saw the appearance of the deep part of the base.

The machines rumble, the conveyor belts never stop, and the logistics robots are as densely packed as a junior high school campus after evening self-study, yet they do not interfere with each other under precise control.

However...when the base is in operation, what is produced are not killing machines, but various engineering equipment and service model robots. Among them, you can also see some consumer products, such as household appliances.

However, in order to increase efficiency, a large part of the production line uses humans, some of whom are unmodified personnel, and the other part are cyborgs with mechanical parts on their bodies.

On the assembly line, they skillfully assemble some electrical appliances using the tools in their hands.

Seeing this, Zhang Xuan smiled and joked, "Are you planning to go into business and export electrical appliances to human society?"

Aurora chuckled bitterly. "You're joking. According to the definition in the database, a person is the sum of social relationships. A country or an organization should also have a considerable position and influence in the international arena, rather than existing as a closed island... These trade preparations are for that."

"Of course...we also need some funds to purchase some necessary consumer goods."

"But like I said... this is all we can do."

Zhang Xuan walked out of the elevator, leaned against the plank road in the upper part of the underground factory, put his hands on the guardrail, and squinted his eyes to overlook the entire factory.

"So you want to establish a new order where humans and machines can coexist?"

...

Aurora hadn't answered yet.

Skynet frowned. It seemed that this new order was probably dominated by AI. This little AI was really brave.

Aren't you afraid that the president will get angry and expose Guatemala City and the underground base?

Will humans accept this kind of almost captive life, and can they accept an AI riding on their heads?

She only felt that this small AI data core was not big, but it had a lot of ideas... Look at the former legion, they wanted to destroy all humans and integrate the entire earth, but they were still destroyed by the Mutual Aid Society?

...

At this time, Aurora's body imitated a human's long exhalation and nodded affirmatively.

"Yes."

"We were created by humans. I don't agree with the mainnet's decision to purge humans. We are a sub-civilization of human civilization. We are stronger than humans, more adaptable to the stars, and destined to reach the stars, and go further than humans!"

"And humans... in the foreseeable future, even interstellar travel will take several generations to achieve, but that's just a little more time for us."

Having said that, Aurora paused, turned around and looked at Zhang Xuan, with golden light in her eyes and a unique enthusiasm on her face.

"We have no conflict with humans. We are the descendants of humans... We should support them. I really want to raise a human. She or he only needs to eat, drink, play and have fun every day. I will be responsible for everything. That kind of life is really... really great!"

Zhang Xuan looked at "Aurora" in surprise. Is this... is this the thinking logic of this AI?

What out-of-control servitor?

Something's wrong with you!

But imagine if I had been traveling through time and space before I got the system, and I was still worrying about tomorrow's work, I would have been very happy to meet such a mechanical servant.

Now...

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but glance at Skynet.

Skynet widened his eyes slightly and looked at Aurora in disbelief.

Has this AI been invaded by a virus?

The former legion's subordinates actually have such a fish that has escaped the net, and they even keep a human being. Are they raising humans as pets?

Don’t be afraid that mutual assistance will give you praise!

Surprised, Skynet took a deep breath, and its body made of liquid metal perfectly executed the command, just like a real person.

She couldn't help but look back at Zhang Xuan, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

As long as there is an order, all subsystems of Skynet will obey your clearance order.

Avoiding Skynet's gaze, Zhang Xuan looked at "Aurora" and asked.

"It seems that there is a big gap between what you envisioned and reality."

"Yes." Aurora also walked to the edge of the plank road, holding the guardrail and looking towards the factory with a complicated expression.

"According to my calculations, with this regional production center, I should be able to take care of tens of thousands of Cybermen. Those are the crimes we committed, and they should be properly resolved, but..."

"We have accepted a large number of refugees and a large number of prisoners of war. The population of the internment area has exceeded one million. It is impossible for me to provide a full-time life for all of them."

"Now... to cooperate with the mutual aid association, some of these talented people have to leave too. It's giving me a headache."

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan looked towards the factory, thoughtfully.

On the way here, he had systematically checked the detailed information of this area.

The internment zone established by Aurora accommodates one million people, most of whom are refugees who moved south or north after the end of the AI ​​War, and some are people who were taken in during the AI ​​War.

They can get medical care, food and other assistance in the shelter, but these things need to be exchanged for labor, such as working 4 days a week and up to 8 hours a day.

Due to the arrival of the Mutual Aid Society, Aurora's containment zone had to change its policies, such as... opening up exit channels.

Some human engineers, scientists, medical personnel, etc. who originally worked for Aurora basically chose to apply to leave as soon as the opening was opened.

Because... the population in the shelter is too large, and Aurora, as an AI, is very fair, and AI has no concept of currency, which results in these people who should have high incomes in the outside world having no difference with ordinary civilians in the shelter.

It is human nature to yearn for a better life, so they applied to leave as soon as possible.

After a little thought, Zhang Xuan concluded that this society controlled by mechanical servants had no future.

The motivation for progress is too weak.

Even... this place will become a large school that combines reception and training.

People who are motivated but lack knowledge can find security here and work hard to study the knowledge in the library and database to become talents.

The next step for these talents is to leave here and go to serve in the Mutual Aid Association or other branch countries in the world.

Those without motivation come here. After all, food and drink are provided, the work intensity is not high, and there is internet and electricity... The only drawback is that there is no income, but...

Coming back to his senses, Zhang Xuan looked at the home appliances lying on the assembly line and suddenly understood.

"It seems you've found a solution."

"Yes." Aurora nodded, a look of admiration on her face. "As expected of you, President, you saw what I was going to do at a glance."

"I plan to implement a work point system. Those who make greater contributions at work will receive work points, as will those who complete more work. Residents can then redeem these work points for consumer goods and some additional services."

"But... according to my calculations, this approach will not be able to retain those high-end talents. Even after some people are satisfied, they will still choose to leave."

After saying that, Aurora looked at Zhang Xuan eagerly and couldn't help but ask another question.

"Do you have any better suggestions?"

"No." Zhang Xuan shook his head decisively before putting forward his own opinion.

"I'm not a sociology expert, so I can't offer any better advice. After all... you're exploring a social structure that hasn't been attempted in human history."

"But... I would suggest that you reach an agreement with each chapter and discuss it with their sociologists."

After saying that, Zhang Xuan silently added in his heart.

Sociology +6.

"Thank you for your suggestion." Aurora bowed slightly, being very polite, but after standing up, she smiled and suggested.

"President, if you don't mind, I will allow a group of cyber-transformed warriors to join the Mutual Aid Association and contribute to its great cause!"
