Chapter 59: Va.s.sal Civilization
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Semi Federation’s mechanical servants began to show signs of losing control. They no longer took the orders of their servants as the highest order but maintained the physical health of organic lifeforms as the highest order. Some people had faintly sensed this change, but it was already too late.
Now that the entire civilization’s system was under the control of mechanical servants, the Semi people could not even ask for help from the outside world.
In addition to accepting the service of the mechanical servants in fear, they could only pray that someone would discover the abnormality here and lend a hand.
The number of s.p.a.ceships traveling between the mother galaxy and the ruins began to decrease significantly, and it seemed that the transportation work was about to be completed.
The control center of the mechanical servants was also installed on one of the Semi people’s mother planets.
The logic of its behavior was approaching extreme, and perhaps it would not be long before a dangerous mechanical servant civilization would appear in the Milky Way.
But today, a special research s.p.a.ceship arrived.
…..
“The Semi people’s mother planet is indeed special, giving birth to three civilizations at the same time. This is a much higher starting point than most civilizations that rushed into s.p.a.ce alone.”
Li Wenyuan sighed and then tried to contact the Semi Civilization.
Yes, it was the Administrator who had decided to repair these out-of-control mechanical servants.
The Semi Federation had been waiting for a powerful helper, but they didn’t know about this at this time. They were still living in fear under the care of the mechanical servants.
However, while Li Wenyuan was still thinking about how to establish a connection with the mechanical servants, an unexpected result occurred.
[ A lost theme park mechanical servant has been detected. The monitoring agreement has been activated. ]
[ Connection with theme park mechanical servant has been re-established. The highest authority has been transferred to the administration matrix. ]
Li Wenyuan was taken aback. He didn’t expect to directly obtain control over the mechanical servants as soon as he entered this galaxy. This made him, who had been prepared to use some unconventional means, unable to do anything. “Eh? The signals of these mechanical servants are pointing to you. Are you controlling them?” Gray Wind also looked at this galaxy with curiosity, then continued,”
“How did you manage to break through their firewall so quickly? 1 didn’t even notice it.”
“Mm… 1 didn’t attack them. It should be some kind of agreement set up at the beginning of the construction that led to the current situation.”
In his virtual world, there was now an additional control panel called the subordinate hub.
In the interface of this subordinate hub, there was only one theme park mechanical servant, and Li Wenyuan only realized that he had an additional va.s.sal after taking actual control of it for a while.
The communication between mechanical signals was too obscure, but it was easy to understand after being translated into language. The signal from the control center of the mechanical servant conveyed this message:
“Reestablished connection with the administration matrix. According to the agreement, the theme park mechanical servant will change the target of service. Please set a target for us.”
The theme park mechanical servant used to be an independent Al, but after reestablishing the connection with Li Wenyuan, it had become a child AL Although it still controlled the movements of the mechanical servants, it needed to operate under the surveillance of the administration matrix.
This kind of monitoring was built into the underlying code. The mechanical servants still served the organic body as their goal in name, but there was a protocol that could directly override their actions at any time and set a new command.
Li Wenyuan looked at it. He could even have his mechanical servants serve the synthetic humanoids, which was almost contrary to their underlying code. It would greatly reduce the efficiency of the mechanical servants, but it was enough to show how high his control over the theme park mechanical servants was.
“So… The threat is gone just like that?” He was still in disbelief. He didn’t expect the robots left behind by humans a long time ago to be able to reconnect with him.
Didn’t this mean that if he found similar child Al in other places, he would have a lot more va.s.sals?
These subordinate hubs were also equipped with powerful artificial intelligence, and they could maintain normal operations without his specific operations, forming a seemingly independent artificial intelligence civilization.
However, no one would have thought that they were actually part of the lost robotic empire.
This situation reminded Li Wenyuan of some special civilizations in the Milky Way.
These civilizations had shown great potential when they first started out, and they quickly gained a foothold in the Milky Way. They also seized some of the rights to speak from some of the older interstellar civilizations.
This was undoubtedly not normal for a civilization that had just entered the galaxy. Old civilizations were strong because their resource reserves, technology, and military strength were not something new civilizations could compare to.
It was not difficult for an old civilization to crush a new civilization.
Therefore, when those old civilizations announced their defeat in the war, it caused a huge uproar in the Milky Way. Many people did not understand why they would lose to a new interstellar civilization.
However, as time went on, the answer to this mystery was gradually revealed.
It turned out that the few special new civilizations were actually va.s.sals of the lost empire. They were inspired by the lost empire during their native era and improved at a terrifying speed.
Although the lost empire would not pay too much attention to these va.s.sals after they entered the galaxy, the hidden help was still effective for these va.s.sal civilizations.
The Voyager was a lost empire that would occasionally upgrade some natives. Now, there were at least four or five powerful civilizations in the Milky Way that were its va.s.sal civilizations.
The Voyager would not partic.i.p.ate in the war between the va.s.sal civilizations and other civilizations, but they would provide protection to the va.s.sal civilizations. In other words, when the va.s.sal civilizations were threatened by the destruction of other civilizations, the Voyager would partic.i.p.ate in the defense war of the va.s.sal civilizations.
In other words, those who dared to attack its va.s.sal civilization had to be prepared to fight a lost empire.
This unfair situation of ‘I can hit you, but you can’t hit me’ undoubtedly made many civilizations feel aggrieved. However, this was how the galaxy was. There were always some lucky people who could enjoy the benefits from their ■ancestors’ without having to pay any price.
They could only blame themselves for not having a good daddy.
However, to the surprise of the galaxy, the Observer, the lost empire that seemed to be the most friendly and enthusiastic to all civilizations, did not have any va.s.sal civilizations.
It would protect the natives it was interested in, but it would not do anything to improve them. Just like its name, it only liked to observe.
To put it simply, the Observer didn’t know how to take care of children.
In the current galaxy, only the Watcher and the Voyager would do anything to improve the native civilizations. The Observer, who couldn’t bring up children, and the silent one, who was almost always in a closed state, didn’t have any va.s.sal civilizations.
However, it wouldn’t be long before someone in the Milky Way would know that the Administrator also had a va.s.sal civilization.
“Do you need these mechanical servants to serve your civilization?” Gray Wind also temporarily understood the situation of these mechanical servants, and her expression changed slightly.
“My nan.o.bots can be made to a higher level than theirs. Won’t you consider me?”
“No, no, no. Isn’t it strange for a robot to serve another robot?” Li Wenyuan kept shaking his head and explained, “These servants are not good enough for me. Even though they are good enough to serve the organic body, they are not as good as the synthetic humanoids.”
“You’re right. They don’t feel as good as nan.o.bots.”
“Let’s fix the mechanical servant’s code first. As for where they should go in the future, I’ll think about it first….”
