Stellaris from the Automata Era

Yan Luo could understand why the humanoid was unwilling to give up the desert.

After all, humans are their creators, although Yan Luo is not essentially...but the current situation is no longer something he can explain clearly.

The desert, as the area where Yan Luo awakened, naturally became a sanctuary in the minds of humanoids. If any manager dared to give up this location, he would probably be assassinated soon.

Anyway, he will not be able to escape the series of titles of "traitor to the country and punished by heaven" that are attached to him.

As for the mechanical life forms...

"As our supreme Android master, the location where you awakened must be at least a sanctuary! It's fine if we can't snatch you away, but at least the desert is under our control! If I give this place up, how can I face the awakened round-heads?"

The awakened round-heads don’t care whether this is good or not! It’s just what you want!

Looking at N2 who was making excuses, Yan Luo felt a stomachache.

Compared to humanoids, mechanical life forms seem to be a little special.

The round heads that truly possess self-awareness are actually no longer under the control of n2. After all, the prerequisite for their awakening is to disconnect from the n2 network.

Of course, this does not mean that they really become two different groups from the mechanical life under N2's control.

In fact, if N2 wants to, he can directly initiate a forced recall of all mechanical life forms, allowing them to return to N2's control, and it is basically difficult for mechanical life forms to refuse this process.

However, the above is not the point. The current focus is how the awakened round-headed people who are not connected to n2 express their desire for the desert?

Yan Luo was a little puzzled..

He strongly suspected that N2 also developed some strange errors after being covered by his psychic power.

When both sides are unable to find common ground while reserving differences.

In the end, Yan Luo could only place his hopes on the psychic network.

So under his urging, the research center finally completed the first psychic energy amplification device.

Yan Luo's first reaction was to place it in the surrounding desert.

Judging from the final response, it should be quite good. The humanoids under the network do develop a certain kind of familiarity and affection for the mechanical life forms that also have the network.

Of course, this effect does not mean that the gap between the two sides will be eliminated immediately.

It can only be said that under the influence, the humanoids in the desert area will not have a larger conflict, especially when the reasons of both sides are very strange.

"The effect is not bad."

Looking at the decreasing friction in the report, Yan Luo felt a lot more relieved.

However, he quickly remembered what the higher-dimensional creature said when he obtained psychic power.

He only has fifty years, and it seems like there's some purpose waiting for him in the universe.

"Then our next goal is to make a contract with all the T-dolls and then explore deep space."

Chapter 120: The research vessel is in place!

Location Pluto.

"Ahhh! Damn it! Why should I join you in scientific research exploration?"

The Basalt-class research vessel is the second spacecraft built on Earth for extraterrestrial exploration.

The humanoid actually always felt that there was something wrong with the personnel configuration inside.

For example, the object he is working with inside the spacecraft right now is a... big sphere?

It is a large mechanical life form, Confucius (Laozi) level!

What genius came up with the idea of ​​putting humanoids and machine life forms together? Aren't they afraid this ship won't encounter any mishaps in space, but will instead be destroyed by internal discord?

The figure almost sighed.

However, on second thought, this seems to be the latest initiative proposed by humans.

How could he not agree with such a proposal to integrate two different groups!

He instantly forgot his previous complaints and unhappiness.

As humanity's most staunch supporter, I absolutely support all resolutions of humanity.

Of course, his instant change of mind cannot be ignored just because of what he just said.

Soon the ball rotated its body and aimed the red circle representing the eyes at the human figure.

"Humanoid, can I assume that you are discriminating against minorities? You are violating the anti-discrimination law recently passed by the Ruler."

The Confucius sphere, several meters high, transmits the sound in this way.

Naturally, the humanoid who heard it was stunned for a moment, and then quickly responded verbally.

"What the hell is this minority group... honestly, your billion-dollar base unit can really be considered a minority!"

He said this first, then felt that there might be something wrong with his words, so he quickly added a few words.

"First of all, I have nothing against you."

For such obviously perfunctory words, Yuanqiu of course...believed it!

"I understand that working with people of different races does make me feel uncomfortable."

The ball uses the part that supports the body to sway up and down, causing the eye area to rise and fall, which should be a nod of agreement.

"Most of my fellow citizens, numbering in the billions, are mindless machines. Anti-discrimination laws only apply to individuals like me who possess self-awareness. Compared to you, we are indeed a minority."

It seems that what you said makes sense.

The humanoids actually had no intention of discriminating against it. A few months ago, as the conflict in the desert area of ​​the earth was temporarily suspended, humans stepped up their plans to implement psychic network coverage for the humanoids.

Able to sense humans! Honestly, based on this alone, most humanoids wouldn't resist.

Perhaps it is the repression of thousands of years that has made these human forms without human form yearn for glory.

Therefore, under various conditions, the promotion of Rongguang Network was very rapid and smooth.

People like Kara can bring family-like warmth to people on the Internet, which to a large extent bridges the gap between human and mechanical life forms.

But that doesn't mean they really became close.

Perhaps it just changed them from being enemies who were shouting for war to being neutral and able to chat with each other.

This is already a great improvement.

Naturally, Yan Luo was not very satisfied with this situation. In order to take the relationship between humanoid and mechanical life forms to the next level, he used all kinds of imaginative operations.

For example, the current mixed organization system of extraterrestrial exploration and scientific research vessels has been born.

Of course...because it was already anticipated that mixed organization would cause problems, the first research ship was a purely humanoid structure.

At the same time, it is said that the third ship under construction is a purely mechanical life form, which really makes things even.

Among them... maybe two pairs have already moved into the human palace, and the twins who are pulling each other should have played a great role.

Recalling the rumors from the 'palace', the humanoid nodded thoughtfully and continued chatting with the ball in front of him.

"Speaking of which, how come you, an awakened machine, are taking on this job?"

These words seemed to hit the sore spot of Yuanqiu.

It is a fact generally recognized by humanoids that awakened mechanical life forms generally do not pay much attention to the sub-level (n2) overall network above.

In fact, most of what humans can control now are mechanical life forms without any self-thought, and there are only a few that are willing to help in the true sense.

For example, the third research vessel under construction has already selected one...two mechanical life forms that are relatively close to human form.

Apart from this, there is rarely any news about awakening mechanical life.

These two were attracted by the human personality charm and took the initiative to come and join the team. It had nothing to do with their nominal boss N2.

Therefore, it is not without reason that awakened machine life forms are classified as a minority.

And precisely because of this, the humanoid is quite curious about the reason behind this sphere that now has self-awareness.

However, the explanation given by the other party was a bit strange.

"I'm too big."

"Yes." The human figure nodded, pretending to listen attentively.

However, after waiting for more than ten seconds, he seemed to hear nothing else from the ball in front of him.

Only then did a hint of confusion appear in his eyes.

"And then? It won't just disappear like that, right?"

"Isn't that enough?" it said. "Do I have to explain to you that I'm too big, consume too much energy, and others can't afford to support me?"

"Then that fucking network manager yelled about how it was time for the future of mechanical life and forced me in! They told me to work hard! So they could compete for the favor of the fucking Gemini!"

"Is this what you want to hear?"

hiss...

Don't want to hear it.

Now the humanoid wanted to cover the sound device of the ball in front of him with his hands.

Brother, don't talk about this kind of thing!

It’s okay to talk about n2, it mainly involves Gemini and humans. The humanoid now feels a dull pain in his back.

The most important thing right now is to skip this paragraph quickly!

With this thought in mind, the doll quickly found a way to divert attention.

He then pointed to the various instruments on board.

"Okay, okay, we're not here to complain this time, so let's get back to work!"

Their mission this time is to leave the known confines of the solar system and explore outward.

"Is our Beacon of Glory still functioning normally?"

It is impossible to determine direction in the universe.

Although they can determine the position of the earth at a short distance with the help of the positions of various stars, this is ultimately not a very good method.

Fortunately, human psychic power includes perception. After in-depth research on psychic power, researchers have developed a network-based positioning method.

Beacon of Glory! Or rather, beacon of psychic power!

With the help of this unscientific power, they will not lose their way.

"It doesn't look like anything unusual."

"That's no problem, let's go."

Chapter 121: Wormhole? Wormhole!

"The mining station on Psyche has been built, and we need more ships to transport the minerals. Isn't our space dock already under construction? Next!"

"There's an energy crisis caused by the excessive and rapid development of facilities across the country... Didn't the humanoids already retrieve the lost technology from the White Tower? Let's first shoot a few nuclear fusion power plants for emergency use! Next!"

"Round Head is expressing dissatisfaction with the current 007 work system?"

Yan Luo, who was handling the internal affairs of the earth, put down the panel in his hand, his head full of question marks.

Then he turned his gaze to the expressionless girl in red beside him. As to whether what he saw was destruction or evolution, he could not tell for the time being.

But these did not prevent Yan Luo from expressing his doubts.

"You mechanical life forms have this thing going on?"

To be honest, he always felt that there was something wrong with this report document. The network represented by n2 did not have a round head that could speak.

They are basically some machines without self-awareness, where does the dissatisfaction come from!

N2 was naturally very angry about such accusations.

Well, maybe there was some problem when the N2 bodies were created, their faces can't express their emotions.

Yan Luo could only hear this emotion from the psychic network and their voices.
