Chapter 346 Final Deconstruction

"Well..." Regret sighed slightly about this question, "To be honest, we don't know much about it. After all, each of us, including your thoughts, can easily expand beyond infinity. It is precisely because of this reason that we can have such power. But in contrast, the complexity of thoughts also makes it difficult for us to glimpse it."

"Uh... so you don't know either?"

"Well... I can't deny it." She said, "We can say that we have basically no understanding of Rule Zero. Even though he was created by us, we still know very little about him."

"Created it yourself?"

"That's right... The people of Earth Civilization gave us the authority to be [Blue Sky Appearance], but they didn't impose any restrictions on us. There were no regulations on how to stimulate the growth of the power of change. Instead, we were left to our own judgment... and we felt uneasy about such behavior."

"Why do you still feel uneasy? I think it's good to have this kind of freedom, isn't it?"

"It is precisely because of this kind of freedom that we feel uneasy." She explained: "We know that we have such power. If it is not restricted, it may lead to the destruction of everything. This is what we fear the most. After the destruction, there will be no change. Therefore, we created the zeroth rule ourselves and gave him the power to restrict us."

"Is that so..." Xiao Yi nodded, then asked: "So, what's the use of this? I need information about why he did this. You... don't have any clues at all?"

"No... If we're talking about clues, we still have them. The ideas of Rule Zero will be reflected in his behavior... Actually, now that I think about it, his behavior has already shown signs of being wrong since we first came to this planet."

"initial?"

"Yes, actually, we always decide which trials can trigger the growth of the power of change based on the different situations between civilizations, so the content of each trial is different. And this time, the content of the trial on Blue Star, which is the rule-based weird talk live broadcast system that you know, was proposed by the zeroth rule."

She paused, then continued:

"At first, we all disagreed. After all, this method was too inefficient and superficial. However, this so-called rule-based weirdness was briefly popular in Earth civilization, so we didn't say anything. So we started to build a basic system according to that method and started making copies to give trials."

"That being said..." At this time, the Seventh Rule couldn't help but interrupt, "But in fact, except for me, almost no one takes the word "ghost talk" seriously. Everyone just does what they want."

After hearing this, Xiao Yi recalled a little and found that few of the copies he had experienced seemed to be related to ghost stories.

"Let's get back to the point." Regret continued, "In addition, Rule Zero once behaved in a suspicious manner. He... once asked me to exchange the reward given to Blue Star for a so-called strong artificial intelligence that he prepared. I didn't understand what he meant at first, but I agreed because I didn't want to bargain. But now I think that strange action must have a special purpose."

"...Strong artificial intelligence?" Xiao Yi immediately remembered the mysterious artificial intelligence, that is, the tower.

From this, Xiao Yi also thought of something.

"So that's what's happening..." Xiao Yi nodded thoughtfully.

"How is it? Do you understand anything?"

"I think... maybe I should have an idea." Xiao Yi said: "But, I need more information. Maybe... it would be better to confront him face to face."

"Really? Then go ahead. We will be waiting here with expectation for your victory..."

"…………Ah?" Xiao Yi was stunned, "No, you're just going to let me go like this?"

"Hmm? Is there something wrong?"

"No...how should I put it? Normally, if you bring me here on purpose, you should give me some useful items or something, right?"

"No." She said, "I've already said it before, Rule Zero was created by us to limit ourselves from going too far. It's to restrain us, and of course, we are now restricted. We can't provide assistance in action, or give you restraint props. In this matter, you have to rely on yourself."

"Uh..." Xiao Yi pointed at himself speechlessly, "Are you sure you want me to fight him like this? Is this true? The opponent is Qingse Kongxian, I don't think I can win without any preparation..."

"It's okay..." However, she said: "You already have the power to change everything. The rest is up to you to work hard."

"Already have it?" Xiao Yi was still a little confused, but he didn't have the chance to complain anymore.

Because the next moment, Xiao Yi was taken away by a strange suction force, and the last words he heard before leaving were...

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and set off as soon as possible. Anyway, everything is left to you... After everything is done, you can have whatever you want."

…………

"You're back?"

Rule Zero naturally noticed Xiao Yi's arrival at the first moment.

"But that's good too. I can have a good chat with him."

Rule Zero did not think there was anything wrong with his behavior. He believed that he could convince Xiao Yi.

So, when he felt that Xiao Yi had come back, he directly linked the space to the tower where he was.

Afterwards, Xiao Yi returned to the tower again.

"Welcome back..." Rule Zero said, "Since you are back, you must have gotten something from them to target me, right? That doesn't matter. If you want to do it again, feel free to do it. However, after this, I think we can have a good talk... This time, I shouldn't be disturbed again." "No..." Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said speechlessly, "Actually, I didn't get anything from them. I just chatted with them for a few minutes."

"...Is that so? Well, I don't think I have any weaknesses. So what's next..."

"Before that..." At this time, Xiao Yi said again: "There is one thing I want to confirm, you... No, is that artificial intelligence tower related to you?"

"...Yes." Rule Zero nodded, "It is indeed mixed with a trace of my consciousness. What's wrong?"

"So as expected..." Xiao Yi asked, "Your actions this time are related to Lao Xu's death."

"…………" Rule Zero was silent for a moment, then said, "I cannot deny that I… did have a liking for Xu Yingguang at the beginning, and believed that he had the ability to lead the people of Blue Star and take the most important step of change. So, I wanted to give him some help within my ability.

However, you also saw the final result, right? Xu Yingguang was dragged down by those boring guys and was never able to take a step to change. In the end, he even died because of this... Knowing this, don't you feel a bit of anger?"

“…………”Xiao Yi could not deny this.

"For me, it is easy to resurrect him and make his life eternal, but..." Rule Zero said, "That is meaningless. As long as human society remains like this, even if he has eternal life, it will only prolong the pain. Therefore, I am disappointed with the humans of Blue Star."

"So, you just started the actions that led to the current situation?" Xiao Yi asked: "No, in fact, you have already started the actions, but this opportunity made you decide to take action."

"exactly."

At this point, Rule Zero felt that there was no need to hold back any longer, and he spoke out what was in his heart.

"I have always felt that most intelligent beings are so stupid that they only hinder change, but it doesn't make sense that they can't be killed...

The other blue sky demons are also stupid guys. They certainly cannot accept my idea. Obviously, they also know that in the history of the development of the great earth civilization, it is a very small number of people who shouldered everything, which led to the change and created the current achievements. "

"Only a few people?" Xiao Yi said, "No wonder you have such thoughts."

"Yes, that's right." Rule Zero nodded vigorously. "Before this, we have stimulated the growth of the power of change of every individual in countless civilizations. However, no individual, let alone reaching the level of people on Earth, has even failed to achieve a further, fundamental change."

Rule Zero said this and couldn't help but clench his fists.

"I have been given such a great mission since I was born, but I have never been able to complete my mission until now... It is undeniable that I feel anxious about this, about my inability to produce results and my failure to live up to the expectations and power I carry... This is an uncontrollable anxiety.

So, I wanted to find the most fundamental problem, and then I found that the intelligent beings who wanted to take the step of change would always be blocked, and that blockage was always caused by other intelligent beings who were standing still. So, I wanted to clear those obstacles... My purpose is that simple. "

Rule Zero stared at Xiao Yi and said gently:
“I think we can reach a consensus. Even if we follow your view on social relations, 500 million people in the world are enough to support normal social operations.

Moreover...it can ensure that everyone will be the best human being, no one will be disgusted by the ignorance and selfishness of others, and it can ensure that everyone can obtain the maximum amount of resources.

Class and vulgarity will be eliminated, and human beings will not be bound by any boring political positions and will develop with all their strength. Moreover, everyone has extremely high aesthetics and abilities, and will not create boring or disgusting works, nor will they feel helpless because of those with low aesthetic standards, and will be able to explore beauty wholeheartedly.

Violence, insults, bullying... all the problems that stem from human inferiority will be solved, and the pace of human progress... no, the pace of change will be greatly accelerated. Isn't that a beautiful world? Do you... want to deny that world?"

When Rule Zero said these words, there was no doubt that he was extremely sincere, as those were his truest thoughts.

Moreover, Xiao Yi could not deny that the world envisioned by the zeroth rule was indeed beautiful... Xiao Yi could not deny such a world either.

At this point, Xiao Yi only had one last question left, which was...

"I won't deny that your idea is indeed beautiful. But..." Xiao Yi stared at him and asked slowly: "What is the basis for judging what you call an excellent human being?"

"…………Eh?"

However, faced with this perhaps simple question, Rule Zero was stunned.

"I..." He couldn't give an accurate answer.

"It is indeed so..." Xiao Yi sighed and said, "Your words sound nice, but in fact, it is just a self-righteous and childish behavior. I think... even the Earth civilization will not easily make any standards, and you just use your own pure subjectivity to judge who is qualified to survive and who is not qualified to survive. Who do you think you are?"

“…………”Rule Zero was silent.

"Although I don't know what happened on Earth, but..." Xiao Yi continued, "Even if a few people triggered the initial changes, the final result must have been achieved by the joint efforts of everyone, right? Although this is just a guess, I think the actual situation must be like this. After all, this is an inevitable objective law. And you, for your own selfish desires, deliberately ignored this point to legitimize your actions. You... took advantage of the Earth civilization that you respect the most."

“…Shut up.” Rule Zero clenched his fists again.

"I see. I understand." Xiao Yi knocked his fist and suddenly realized, "The essence of all your actions is that you think your work is too troublesome and difficult, so you want to slack off and reduce your workload. After all, the people of Earth Civilization must have worked hard to change everyone to get to this point, but you want to reduce the number and reproduce! Isn't this just slacking off!?"

At this moment, Xiao Yi gave the final deconstruction of the zero rule!

"You... after all, are nothing more than a childish idiot who has never experienced the hardships of development and sits back to enjoy the fruits of his labor and thinks highly of himself."
