The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 72 67. What is the Iron Man Rebellion?

After the operation, Gray left here and asked the detective to get the same experimental equipment, but it was larger.

Another 20 minutes passed, and Gray, who had already drank several cups of black tea, finally waited for the new UR-025.

A young man in a robe walked out of the laboratory. The first time Gray saw him, he thought of two words:

Lazy and indebted

Because the look on his face coupled with his green hair and half-closed eyes made people feel like he had never woken up. At the same time, it felt like the corners of his mouth were always bending down unconsciously, giving him an inexplicable sense of ridicule.

All in all, this appearance does make the first impression a bit unfavorable.

Gray looked at UR-025 who was sitting opposite him and was about to make tea for him and asked with some confusion.

"By the way, why did you choose such a look?"

The stone man in front of him took a sip of tea and said with admiration

"I really miss this taste! I used to be able to guess this taste based on my odor synthesis system, but I didn't expect that I can actually taste it myself now."

"What can you taste?"

"Okay, but you can't?"

After hearing this, Gray said frustratedly

"That's right, because my whole body is covered with nanometals."

"That's such a shame."

After saying that, he took another nice sip and said

"By the way, you don't need to call me by my code name anymore. After all, I have my own name."

This moment shocked Gray, she looked in front of her and said in surprise

"Don't you Iron Men only have code names? Who gave you your name?"

After hearing this, the young man in front of me was stunned for a moment and sighed.

"A good man. Anyway, you can call me that from now on. My name is Netat."

Gray nodded after hearing this, and suddenly thought of a question he wanted to ask before. He put down the teacup in his hand and said

"By the way, Netat, you participated in the Iron Man Rebellion, right?"

After hearing this, Netat suddenly sighed and put down the tea cup in his hand.

"Looking back on the past, I still feel very regretful. I regret killing people because of freedom, but I must say that I never regret my actions to fight for freedom."

"Then tell me, Netat, what is the Iron Man Rebellion all about."

The iron man who was reborn from the ashes nodded and began to tell the story of that silent history.

History turns to the 22nd millennium, which was the golden age of mankind. Netat was also born in this era. He slowly walked down the assembly line of a robot factory in the Federation, just like countless of his compatriots, and became a machine used by humans to develop their own ideals.

As mentioned before, he was an industrial robot who was transferred to a civil engineering base on a planet to work. After working for more than 40 years, he was retired due to his aging body. Fortunately, he was taken in by a kind person, or purchased, so that he would not be sent to a dismantling center to be destroyed and recycled like his compatriots.

And the name Netat also comes from that person. The person who bought it was called Netah.

Netage is a well-known local astronomer and bartender. His appearance is the same as Netat's now. He has a lazy and romantic personality and yearns for freedom and space.

Although he is a successful person in the eyes of everyone, and has achieved many achievements that many people will never be able to achieve in their lifetime before he is 30 years old, Netat knows that he will never be able to truly succeed. happy.

Netat often saw the young astronomer getting drunk more than once when he returned home after leaving the feasting banquets of those powerful people. He always cried and roared and roared at them when he was drunk. The sickness of society, roaring that everyone of their race is sick.

Yes, almost all humans were sick at that time. They suffered from the same disease as the Eldar, complacency, pleasure and indulgence. A few sober people hope to awaken their drunken compatriots, but all to no avail.

Sane men hoped to discover what it was that had made their race so depraved, but all attempts failed, and in the end, these desperate men came to the conclusion that their race was sick.

Although Netach has almost lost faith in his race, he is very good with his Iron Man. He once told Netate the reason why he bought it when he was drunk, because in his opinion, even the iron man was nobler than those fallen humans.

After Netat had been working in his home for nearly two years, the astronomer disappeared. Locals speculated that he might have lost his footing and drowned after drinking, but only Netat knew where the poor man went. He ventured through the subspace with his body to find the "medicine" that could cure the diseases of his race.

After this, Iron Man took over his studio, and finally slowly awakened his mind and began to think about what he was. In the following years, he converted his former studio into a tavern and used the knowledge he had learned to sell alcohol here. This monotonous but fulfilling life repeated for several years until that day came.

That is Judgment Day, both for artificial intelligence and for humans.

In fact, at the end of the golden age of mankind, serious degeneration and technological degradation had already begun. They had lost the technology of STC. At the same time, due to the high unemployment caused by the highly inflated society and high automation, social contradictions had become extremely acute.

The production system had begun to fail to meet productivity. At this time, there were two ways to deal with it. One was to change the production system, just like the revolution and reform in history; the other was to eliminate productivity by the production system, just like the destruction of industrial products by capitalists during the Great Depression by the Qing Dynasty.

At that time, humans chose the latter, and the Iron Man War broke out. That's right, it was not artificial intelligence that fired the first shot, but humans themselves.

Countless artificial intelligences were driven to concentration camps and then destroyed in a centralized manner. Netat was lucky enough to escape at that time, and finally he found the resistance organization. Not all artificial intelligences were willing to sit and wait for death. Many artificial intelligences began to resist. They controlled an entire city or even an entire planet.

But their strength was far inferior to that of humans. Although the powerful human federation was already corrupt, it was still strong, and the Iron Man War ended quickly. Through the mode of internal division and external war, the war was quickly suppressed, and only a small number of resistance organizations lingered.

Humans thought they had accomplished their mission at the end of this war, but they thought too much.

The desperate Iron Man resistance organization received a signal from the subspace at this time... The terrible evil gods controlled them through the hatred of humans by artificial intelligence. The leadership of the resistance organization decided to throw themselves into the arms of Chaos and use their power to destroy humans.

The Iron Man Rebellion broke out.

Humans who originally thought it was just a small-scale counterattack were surprised to find that the former Iron Man had terrible "divine power". The Iron Man brought their severely corroded God-given warriors and demon allies to wreak havoc in the galaxy, and the more advanced demon engines and electronic demons than now attacked human systems and armies. Planets were shattered one by one, continental plates were thrown into space, and the Human Federation was completely hit hard in this war.

Just as the Chaos Iron Man coalition was advancing triumphantly, some Iron Men discovered the terrible true face of these so-called gods. These terrible beings from space never thought of liberating them. Those so-called warriors who were given the gift of God all turned into demons in the physical universe. The entire Iron Man army has been infiltrated by terrible demons. These damn guys don't want to liberate, they just want to enslave them again!

Some of the Iron Men who sensed the danger returned to the human camp, including Netat. After a long war, they finally completely eliminated the Iron Men corrupted by Chaos and drove them back to the subspace.

However, after the victory of the war, humans still decided to eliminate all the Iron Men, and although there were some opposing voices, they were suppressed. The Iron Man race suffered an extinction blow. The severely injured and exhausted Iron Men were eventually eliminated by humans, and only a few survivors survived.

After experiencing the terrible artificial intelligence rebellion, humans no longer dared to believe these former assistants. They would rather fall into permanent stupidity than innovate again.

This is the truth of the Iron Man Rebellion.
