Will the out-of-control servitor meet the cosmic cat?

I understand, this time it's a meteorite with a railgun installed, you're right about everything, so can you let us go?

Although he really wanted to say that, the threat from above forced him to show a smile that was uglier than crying: "It's a pity."

"We took in a small group of Jeffery cubs." Hong finally said what she wanted to express after going around for so long.

"They have joined the cat-mao single-push community and gained citizenship, but as far as we know, you have been enslaving and hurting them until then."

"Our whole family is very dissatisfied. May I ask, what do you say about this?"

Threats, this is an obvious threat. Compared with Fasati, who has no connection before, Hong is not so particular about the federal people who have directly enslaved Bai and the others.

"This......"

He swallowed his saliva and swallowed the "treason" that he almost blurted out. From their point of view, this was a blackmail that couldn't be more obvious, and he just found an excuse to blackmail them.

How can any country go to war for a few ex-slaves who have just joined them - just a few cubs, nothing but good-looking ones, need technology but no technology, labor but no labor, seek justice for them , what benefits can be sought?

What's more, everyone is an interstellar civilization, who doesn't use slaves?It's more or less the difference. If you change the name to Fubao, will no one recognize it?What kind of white lotus is here?

"We are very sorry for this." However, there are many boats on the other side, so they are reasonable, "Then, what can you see to express our apology?"

"Genome."

"That's impossible! There's no way we're going to hand over our genome!"

The Geoffreys immediately rejected the proposal with an unusually firm attitude.If you think about it with your toes, you know that the genomes they want cannot be the superficial data that can be obtained by casual testing. For such a civilization that is likely to be more advanced than the Federation, the genomes they ask for must be those that are encrypted. fragments.

This is equivalent to handing over all their genetic technology, opening up their DNA for the other party to look at - this is absolutely impossible, even if you lose all the battleships here, it is impossible to hand it over.

After receiving this answer, Hong immediately gave up the idea of ​​asking for the entire genome - one thing the other party may not know is that Hong's genetic technology is quite backward.

The former Catus was originally weak in genetic technology, and they were still focusing on the implant route. They didn't really understand the genes of the human body at all. After Hong took over civilization, they directly lost their research genes. The driving force of technology.

Although Hong has recently picked up related research again, compared with the Jeffreys, the genetic technology of Maomao's single push of the same species is really not to be seen.

"We only need the genomes of a few people." Hong lowered the request, "They now have citizenship of the same race, and we must know their genetic information. This is the minimum requirement."

"It's important, please forgive me, I need to apply to my superiors."

The other party temporarily turned off the camera, and it seemed that they were talking to the parliament on the home planet.

However, this is already the bottom line of Hong, and the inability to find out the genes of other Jeffery cubs has always been a thorn in Hong's heart.If there are some genetic problems, or even serious, life-threatening diseases, the unknown genome is very likely to affect Hong's treatment of them.

Even death due to genetic problems is possible.

"I hope you guys can be a little more acquainted." Hong murmured, "I really don't want to start a war anymore."

If the other party refused even this request, Hong would have no choice but to break her declaration of neutrality—compared with the safety of the cubs, the lives of aliens seemed so insignificant.

After more than three minutes, the camera was turned on again.

"We agree to this agreement, but you need to let our fleet leave here first. After we return safely, we will send you the genetic information you want immediately."

"can."

Hong chose to make a concession—as long as the safety of the cubs can be guaranteed, this small concession is still acceptable.

If it can be guaranteed.

After the fleet returned, it took another two days before the Federation finally delivered the information that Hong wanted.

Originally, the Federation wanted to play on the tradition of breaking the contract and directly ignored this verbal agreement. Anyway, the warships have returned, and the two main fleets add up to dozens of ships. Can your clan really go to war for some genomes?

In the end, the commander of the fleet came to the door in person and scolded—yes, the number of the two sides is about the same, because the size of his warship is several times that of ours!If you want to break the contract, you can. When the other side calls, you can personally command the battleship!

No one really dared to board the battleship, so in the end they handed over the genome reluctantly.

"This is the advantage of big fists." Hong showed the mobile storage device in his hand, which contained the genome copies of Bai and his group of clones—from a genetic point of view, they are actually sisters, "soon , I can figure out your genes."

It sounds like a very exciting news, but it seems that they are a little bit out of interest, because, for some unexplainable reason, the genes of these cubs are artificially modulated to cater to some big people interested.

To be specific, it is far from adulthood, and it begins to enter the estrus period.

"I will try to solve this problem as soon as possible."

Red pulled his hand out of Bai's arms calmly, unlike the other Jeffery cubs who confessed to each other, Bai chose to use red to relieve this emotion - but unlike Seele, Bai still has a lot of affection for Hong However, the main reason for sticking to Hong is because she is the person Bai is most familiar with.

After all, it's just the bad taste of the genetic designer, and it's still far worse than the real estrus. As long as Bai hugs her for a few minutes every day, he can almost manage the day.

"Hey, so fast?" Bai raised his head, his face full of regret, "Just help them solve this problem, I don't need it."

This is a reasonable and aboveboard opportunity to post, even Xi'er can't say anything, if Hong really fixes it, where will she find such a good excuse.

"... Be normal, isn't it good to find your friends?"

People's temperament always likes to be harmonious and compromise. For example, if you directly want to stick to a girl, everyone will not allow it.But if you propose to fall in love with virtual machine intelligence, they will come to mediate and agree to allow you to stick with the same sex.

"When I become a Catus in the future, I will be the fleet commander for you."

Bai bluntly changed the subject.

"The horoscope has not been written yet, it's early." Although she knew she was changing the subject, but Bai Ming wanted to find her, so Hong could only pinch her nose to recognize it, "First adjust the genes that may cause diseases, That’s something to think about now.”

"Ah."

While she complied, she quietly crawled over and leaned happily on Hong's body.

The memory of the slavery country in the past has begun to become blurred, and the fear of being brought out of the training room has long since disappeared. The only thing left is the joy when I saw Hong just now.

Hong was very upset about wanting those people to pay some price, but to Bai, it was irrelevant—not to mention that those people had not had time to do anything, even if they did, she would not Because I asked Hong to go to war with them.

The present life is beautiful and happy, she doesn't want to lose, and she is unwilling to accept any risk of losing.

How nice it would be if she was a Catus too.

Bai slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Volume 22 Cats and Space: Chapter 25 The [-]-Year Project

Although it seems that the fleet in Red's hands has far exceeded the combat power of any party on the opposite side of the wormhole, Red still silently raised the priority of warship manufacturing. More large and even giant docks.

If it is an ordinary civilization, with this level of militarism, the people in the country have long been devastated and devastated, but for the machine-intelligent civilization, the number of ships built can only be regarded as ordinary.

Without the civilian industry pressure of billions of people, with the same industrial production capacity, the proportion of mechanical intelligence that can be put into military use is far higher than that of any organic civilization—it can even be said that, except for projects such as the construction of global particle accelerators that serve scientific research , All the rest of the production capacity, Hong has invested in the army.

Factories are either producing battleship components, or producing facilities for producing battleship components, or producing equipment for developing other planets, and these equipment will eventually become a part of military industry expansion.

If we want to say a ratio, about 93% of the industrial production capacity is serving the military industry, and the remaining 7% is all invested in scientific research. There is very little production capacity, which can be considered as [-]%. The production capacity is responsible for providing a comfortable life for the cubs.

It's not that Hong despises scientific research, but because the level of scientific research cannot be piled up by industrial production capacity-the scientific research efficiency of building [-] global particle accelerators is not much different from building two.

It's like being pregnant in October. You can't say that I will send you ten more people to give birth in one month, right?

In addition, this is an interstellar civilization that has been operating for hundreds of years, plus the total industrial production capacity of more than a dozen outer space colonies, it is a huge production capacity that can complete sixteen [-]-ton space battleships in three months.

It's not something like GDP, it's real working hours and production capacity——Hong dare to say that even if it's only 7%, it's a high number that most organic civilizations can only look up to.

"So, what you have to do now is to study hard, and to become independent scientists in the future will be the greatest help to us."

Hong held up a finger and explained.

"But, Hong, you are so powerful, you can take care of scientific research and industry by yourself." A boy raised his hand and asked, "Our research efficiency is not as good as yours, isn't this a waste of production capacity?"

After they completed the psychological evaluation and confirmed that they were safe to be naturalized, Hong no longer concealed anything - anyway, this kind of thing must be told sooner or later, and it is impossible to keep it a secret for a lifetime. Now that Bai already knew the truth, she simply did not hide anything. Tell all the Jeffery cubs who they are.

Hong still clearly remembers that on the day she announced her identity, almost everyone had an expression of "it really is" on their faces——these kids have outstanding IQs, and after several years of teaching, most of them have more or less Or less guessed the truth behind it.

Kui Hong thought she was doing a good job of hiding it.

"No, in fact, my research efficiency is not high. Although according to the classification of the old Katus scholars, I belong to strong artificial intelligence. I can independently propose and solve problems, and I have emotions and consciousness. All of these are correct."

"but."

Red changed the subject.

"I am not super artificial intelligence, nor am I imagining a super consciousness that will completely crush organic creatures once it is born. You can think that my scientific research ability is equal to many top scientists."

"However, my level is still in the category that humans can understand. It is definitely not the kind of super artificial intelligence that can derive a grand unified theory from scratch in a few minutes-this means that your scientific research capabilities are not only useful, but also Quite useful."

Seeing that the cubs were slightly confused, Hong immediately pulled the display screen and called up the statistical data to show them.

"My advantage is still reflected in the computing-oriented ability of multi-thread processing, but for cutting-edge scientific research, the idea is the most important-in this regard, I am not much better than you."

"So, each of you is very important to me." Hong finally did not forget to enhance their sense of identity with the same group, "You will find things I have missed and help me make up for them. Improve them—even, better than me."

"The same family, we need you."

Hong concluded.

This fleet expansion will be the longest and the largest expansion in history - 25 years, counting the dozens of cats and cats that have been built before and the queen bee, she will expand the fleet To a full three hundred ships, with a gross tonnage of 3000 million tons.

Not only that, Red also needs to build a new space skyhook for empty-ground transportation, build a new dock for dumpling, and allocate production capacity for other colonies to develop, and let them start building their own shipbuilding factory.

In terms of scientific research, in the microscopic field, the Universal Particle Accelerator will be completed and put into operation within five years. This unprecedented super particle accelerator will help Hong to verify some theories that were unable to be tested due to the level of the accelerator, such as those that have only remained on paper so far. The theory of supersymmetry.

In addition, Red has been unhappy with the standard model for a long time. This machine will have the opportunity to uncover the mystery of particles and propose a more advanced and complete theoretical model.

The macroscopic aspect is much simpler. Then the big wormhole is in the synchronous orbit. Exploring the theory of superluminal speed will definitely be the most important project of Hong during this time, bar none.

The speed of light cage has confined them for too long, and it's time to break it.

In addition, there was a small episode. Originally, Hong thought that the Federation, as a country directly bordering them, would definitely do everything possible to find out their details.Unexpectedly, after waiting for several days, no one from the Federation or the Empire came. Instead, the Farsati Diplomatic Mission came to Katus first after three jumps.

"Welcome to the space station under the rule of the same race." In the space station that has been prepared long ago, with a camouflaged ecological environment and rotating artificial gravity, the red bionic body received the group of Farsati, "I hope our two races Friendly and peaceful exchanges can take place."

Because the Farsati people are relatively tall, Hong, who is only 1.6 meters tall, is a cute little one in their eyes-but this face is familiar to these carefully selected diplomatic envoys But that's all.

"Thank you for your help, and I would like to ask, you are the one..."

For a moment, they didn't know what words to use. She was the one who led the fleet before, and now she is the one who came to entertain her. Is this position high or low?They didn't know, and they didn't dare to guess wildly, so they had to stop, hoping that Hong would take the initiative to tell them.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Hong, and I'm the leader of the cat-mao single-push group...machine intelligence, or it can also be understood as artificial intelligence."

Hong searched, and was surprised to find that no matter in Farsati or Jeffrey, there is no word for "mechanical intelligence" or "artificial intelligence", so I had to use the two words "mechanical" and "man-made". A noun came out.

What kind of civilization doesn't have words for machine intelligence?

Combined with their use of manned warships in large quantities, and the fact that the interstellar era is still using slavery to produce relations, Hong seems to know something.

This is really unexpected.

Volume 23 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Who Lost?

"Mechanical...intelligence?"

"artificial intelligence?"

Even the well-informed diplomat Fasati can only look at each other at this time, staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

Although they didn't know what it was, they instinctively felt something—could this be the source of the strength of Maomao's single-push siblings?

Before they could ask, Hong opened the mouth first, and explained nonchalantly: "As you can see, we have granted the citizenship to synthetic humans, whether they are organisms or mechanical intelligence, they can be rulers. Therefore, any questions you have You can bring it up to me—I have all the decision-making power."

A "synthetic citizenship" was filmed, and the people of Fasati were even more confused - they hadn't figured out what machine intelligence was, and this was another more incomprehensible coined word.

In order to distinguish them from their artificial clones, Hong did not use the suffix "artificial" to indicate the synthetic human, but used a very rare phrase in the Fasati language to indicate the mechanical nature of the "synthetic human" .

"Excuse me, Your Excellency Hong, can you explain to us what kind of policy is synthetic human citizenship?"

Several diplomats exchanged glances, and one of the younger-looking officials raised the question—if you directly asked the meaning of "synthetic human", it would immediately reveal that they did not have any similar words. Things, thus exposing their lack of related technology.

Although Hong understood that Farsati and Jeffery probably didn't point out the technology of "artificial intelligence" at the next moment when she indexed the dictionary, but since the other party seemed very polite, she didn't say so bluntly. Debunked - a country always wants to save face.

EMMMM, the Federation probably doesn't.

"Citizenship for synthetic humans is a policy to give artificial intelligence with self-awareness, the ability to independently propose and solve problems, and a complete citizenship of the same race." Hong explained while leading them to the reception cabin of the space station, "In this way , we enjoy the same rights as other Catus with full citizenship rights—of course, we also need to bear the corresponding responsibilities.”

"Then..." It can be seen that except for the young official among them who looks like a scientific research practitioner, no one else understands what Hong's words mean. As for the scientific researcher, his face Together, everyone can see that his mood is not stable.

Obviously, this Farsati should not be a serious diplomat, otherwise it would be impossible to control his facial expressions.However, his scientific research literacy is quite good, and he has some guesses about the meaning expressed in the red words.

He winked at the entourage on the side, who nodded, and reached out to operate beside the helmet—Hong believed that he had switched to an encrypted channel so that he could communicate with other diplomats that she didn't want her to know.

Although Hong wants to, whether it is to use quantum computing arrays to brute force crack the encryption, or directly use laser technology to remotely monitor the vibration of the helmet, so as to analyze what he is talking about.But Hong didn't choose to do this—so far, the Farsati's performance was satisfactory to her, far from the "vulgar, violent, and beast-like" creatures in the records of the Jeffreys.

At least for now, Hong is still very willing to engage in peaceful diplomacy with them, and the behavior of monitoring is naturally not suitable for use.
