Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

There were only two records left. One of them was written in illegible handwriting, as if Abatui was somewhat out of control.

The other one didn't even have a date marking, and it was placed in a very casual position, as if it had been carelessly tossed aside.

In the first record, Rikakata approached Abatui and called out several times, but the other party did not respond.

After a moment of stunned silence, Abatui noticed Kakata and began to communicate with it.

The text specifically notes that Abatui's voice was weaker at this point, lacking its previous vitality and confidence.

"In the recent experiment, I successfully added the 'instinct' of life to you."

"When energy is low or parts are damaged, you will prioritize executing the 'survival' command, proactively replenishing energy and replacing parts."

Readers suddenly realized, could this be the reason Kakata was searching for parts? Was it trying to "survive"?

But then I realized that wasn't right. Tinari had wanted to replace its parts but was refused. Wouldn't that be going against its "survival" instinct?

Did Abatui add a wrong instruction?

This is still unclear, as Abatui also stated that Kakata would only provide limited feedback according to his pre-set instructions.

This limited feedback was all that Abatui had managed to achieve.

He wanted to prove the people of the Church were wrong; he wanted to prove that machines could become living beings.

However, the reality at this moment is that the experiment is not progressing, funding is becoming increasingly tight, and it seems that failure is the only way forward.

His pride and confidence were trampled underfoot by 'failure,' and he lost his youthful arrogance.

If you can't see the future, can't see the road ahead, and can't see the hope of success, it will crush a person's spirit, leaving only pressure and anxiety.

[Abatui's voice was weak and trembling: "I get tired too, Kakata."]

This statement is rather heartbreaking. He has no one to share with or complain to, and he can only tell the machine, which doesn't understand what 'tired' means, that he's tired.

"At this point in the experiment, I no longer know what's driving me forward."

"Kakata, even just once, I wish you would just say something to me..."

[Kakata: "Gurgle?"]

In the illustration, Kakata's core is tilted, looking confused and bewildered, as if he cannot understand Abatui's words at all.

[Abatui: "Yes. You don't understand, and you can't answer me."]

Despondency—the helplessness of an ordinary scholar facing difficulties.

The reader initially thought he couldn't empathize with the scholar because the gap in their understanding was too great.

Unexpectedly, everyone now understood Abatui's feelings.

Scientific research may be incomprehensible to most people, but how many people haven't experienced the frustration and unhappiness of being unfulfilled?

The feeling of being full of enthusiasm but ultimately failing is something everyone can relate to.

Especially for some older readers, there was a time when we also charged towards 'life'?

What finally defeated them was not falling down, but the despair of not being able to get any closer no matter how hard they ran.

The empathetic readers fell into a long silence, as did Tinari in the story, who silently changed to the last videotape.

In this video, Abatui seemed to have made a new discovery, but he collapsed from illness before he could conduct any experiments.

It turned out that in order to maintain the experiment, he saved his own money for medicine and used it for research, which caused his condition to get out of control and he fell ill.

[Abatui: "The result is just as those people in the Council of the Church said: mechanical life brings only danger. What's the point of my research...?"]

It's a pity that his dream couldn't be fulfilled in the last moments of his life.

"I'm sorry, Kakata, but in the end, I couldn't make you... a true mechanical life form..."

Abatui's life came to an end, and if the story ended there, failure could be said to have been a constant throughout his life.

But his story is not over yet.

At this moment, readers realized the power of Lei's films, but that was the wisdom of the gods.

Abatui was not a genius; he was just an ordinary person who took things one step at a time.

Unlike those lofty and unsteady sages, Abatui truly demonstrated the wisdom of mortals.

He moved forward step by step, but the road ahead was too far, and he could not reach it alone.

He fell, but the 'instinct' he left for the machines continues to function.

The device wasn't shut off, and the machines, in order to 'survive,' were sucking up the earth's energy extracted by the device, which led to the current situation.

Kakata was an exception; it collected parts but did not absorb the earth's energy.

But this is not what Abatui is pursuing; his pursuit is much more 'advanced'.

[Tinari: "Similar in structure to real life, capable of crying and laughing, and able to think independently... In Abatui's view, only machines possessing these capabilities can be called mechanical life."]

"But actually, if he could calm down and see Kakata as a friend rather than an experiment, he probably would have noticed."

"Kakata may not be able to speak, but it cares about Abatuyi more than itself."

For some reason, readers felt a lump in their throat while reading this passage.

Those who empathized with Abtuyi felt a sense of 'recognition' in those words, a recognition that Abtuyi himself had never received.

Did Abatui fail? Yes and no, perhaps he succeeded, but no one can definitively say what constitutes 'life'.

He looked too far ahead and didn't notice that he wasn't alone as he took each step forward; there was another life accompanying him.

A friend who can't speak.

Chapter 521 I so wish you could speak to me

In real life, Abatuyi was stunned by Tinari's words. Did I not notice?

Kakata's core seemed to tilt its head as it looked at Abatai: "Gururu?"

In reality, he received financial assistance from Lin Qiu, so he was even more eager to achieve results, both to prove himself and to demonstrate the sponsor's discernment.

His eagerness to prove himself seemed to have caused him to genuinely ignore some things around him.

Meanwhile, the 'friend' that Abatui failed to observe attentively in the story is observing him while he is 'deeply asleep'.

The traveler and Tinari shut down the device and returned to find Kakata standing in front of Abatuyi.

In the illustration, Kakata carefully extends his small mechanical claw to touch Abatui, holding a mechanical part in his claw.

It moved it left and right, but didn't know where to put the part. Its 'hand' loosened, and the mechanical part slid off Abtuyi's body.

Kakata seemed startled and hurriedly used her two little paws to carefully pick up the mechanical part and place it back on Abatui's body, in the position of his heart.

Abatui remained unresponsive.

'I replaced the part for you, and you're fine now.'

Kakata looked at Abatui and asked, "Why not? Shouldn't everything be fine once we have the new parts?"

Is that not enough? No problem, I've collected a lot more! Lots!

Kakata took out one mechanical part after another, all of which it had collected. It placed each part on Abatuyi, hoping that he would wake up.

The piled-up mechanical parts scattered helplessly, seemingly unable to 'support' the weight of life.

Kakata touched Abatui, but Abatui still didn't react.

Even if I'm gone one day, you won't notice anything amiss, will you?

Kakata realized that his master was gone.

In the illustration, Kakata's core trembles and sparks fly, looking like tears of despair.

Bewildered, Kakata curled up like a wronged child, his eyes flashing with lightning like tears.

Life originates from crying, so can a machine that can shed tears also be considered life?

'Even just once, I wish you would say something to me...'

Abatui cried. He had thought his life was a hasty one, unnoticed and meaningless.

But he was wrong. He succeeded. He pieced together a 'life' from those parts that couldn't support life!

This scene deeply moved readers, with some even shedding tears, especially those with children or pets at home.

Kakata's 'crying' is incredibly powerful. When everyone saw the lightning flashing at Kakata's core in the illustration, they immediately realized that it was 'tears'.

The thought that Kakata's own parts were already old, yet he still gave these parts to Abatui, brought tears to everyone's eyes, like leaves unable to withstand the rain.

The above is Naxi Da's metaphor.

As for Nasita herself, she was also very depressed.

This is fascinating knowledge, this is a sad story, this is why Nasita loved humans.

Curiosity deserves praise.

The stragglers seemed unaffected, pulling their hoods down as they continued reading.

This 'mechanical life form' actually had a heart from the moment it was born, but it had been searching for that heart that had always existed.

He was a wanderer who had passed away, with no future and no home, just a drifting duckweed in the world, a farewell from the 'deceased' to the world.

Fischl touched Oz; his feathers were soft and had a slightly tingling feel. She was so glad that Oz could talk.

Although Oz often sabotaged her, she couldn't imagine what she would be like without him.

As a child, she, like Abatui, dreamed of hearing 'them' speak.

She heard no response, but she continued to build her dream country until one day, Oz flew out of her 'dream'.

Fischl heard her 'dreams'; they were speaking, but what they were saying was no longer important.

Farusan buried her head in her book; the strong-willed senior didn't want others to see her sadness.

She couldn't stand the story at all, because a prophet led her to a little machine that was looking for its owner.

In this situation, how can Farusan resist the sadness brought about by this story?

Suddenly, Farusan understood why they wanted to beat up Lin Qiu.

Why write a story so touchingly?! I know it will make me cry, but I just can't help but want to read it!

And such a story naturally wouldn't be complete without the sad Fufu. At this moment, Fufu's eyes turned into 'waves', and tears would well up with every blink.

Qiu, come find me quickly! Please, please let me kick you, waaaaah, I'll do anything.

Fu Ningna was heartbroken. Lin Qiu had lied to her, saying that the book was about 'creating life,' a book only adults could read, and that she couldn't stand it.

Fufu protested, "What do you mean by 'adult content'? I'm almost five hundred years old, don't treat me like a child!"

However, Fufu hesitated about the 'adult content' and struggled with her mind for a long time before starting to read it, but in the end, she couldn't overcome it no matter how hard she tried.

Lin Qiu was right, she really couldn't take it anymore! Waaaaah~—

The story isn't over yet; there's still a little bit of explosive tension to come.

Tinari and the traveler analyzed Kakata's behavior, concluding that it probably couldn't understand 'death'.

It is only because it was repaired by Abtuyi in the same way when it broke down that it is looking for parts to 'repair' Abtuyi.

But how could humans be repaired by something like this? Kakata's actions were destined to be futile.

But it is precisely because it is futile that everything has meaning.

[Tinari: "The important thing is that it generated the idea of ​​'wanting to fix Abatui.'"]

"No one knows how this idea came about, but the idea itself even suppressed the 'instinct' that Abatui had set for it."

"If our speculation is correct, this would indeed be a shocking development for the Council of Fathers' research."

Just like androids, they are only truly "alive" when they break the "instructions" and do what they want.

Abatui's experiment only achieved a part of the goal, but even a part is a major advancement in human technology.

Mechanical life forms were once achieved by ancient technology, but that was in Canria. Even the Shadow was a 'doll' created based on the technology of that time.

Abatui took this step entirely through modern technology and human ingenuity.

The Kingdom of Wisdom, under the rule of the Council of the Church, cannot tolerate wisdom, but there will always be believers of 'wisdom' who refuse to succumb to the 'unknowable'.
