Dedicate cubes to the end of the world

"If we go in from there, we can't do it." Qianhu looked at the crack dozens of meters above the ground and felt that he couldn't go up and open it.

"It feels a bit high. Is that really the entrance?" Qianju was a little doubtful, wondering if his lever was useful.

"Well, well," when Qianju was struggling, Yuli thought seriously for a while and gave the order, "Okay, let's go blast it!"

"Oh, why?" Senju and Qianhu exclaimed, is Yuri going to blow up the tower?

"Well, if we blow up the lighthouse here, the pipes above will pull the board above and pull it down, and then we can go in from there," Yuli told the two of them after making some gestures. I thought, "If this is the case, you can get in just by breaking off the tower."

"Will it go smoothly? But, forget it, let's give it a try." Qianhu was a little worried, and then looked at Senju, "Qianju, there should be some explosives."

"Well, although there are some for the road, there are still more than half a box." Qianju looked at the package and took out a box from it. This was found on the plane before. The three of them used some to deal with the things on the road. For obstacles, Senju also used some collection blocks.

"Is there half left?" Qianhu opened the box and checked. Yuri was very excited when she saw the explosives in the box. "Use all of them and have a gorgeous explosion!"

"Oh, but it would be a little uneasy to use them all." Qianhu looked at the explosives in the box and thought it would be better to keep some, "I'd better keep one."

"Qianhu is really a coward," Yuri laughed as she watched Qianhu put up an explosive.

stand up.

Qianhu immediately fought back, "If you do what You said, you will regret it in the end."

Seeing the looks of the two of them, Senju couldn't speak. He couldn't say that he still had several boxes of explosives in his bag.

The three of them then began to install explosives on the lighthouse. Qianju also learned how to use explosives along the way. The three of them tied explosives to the pillars under the lighthouse one after another.

"I mean, we are always destroying all kinds of things," Yuli said with emotion as she installed the explosives. Now everyone has to destroy another thing.

"Well, yes, it was done to open a road." Qianhu felt that everything was normal. He paused for a while and continued, "But there were a lot of things that You casually destroyed along the way. Qianju also seemed to have demolished them. A lot of buildings.”

"I'm here to obtain materials, not casual destruction," Qianju defended. Although he destroyed many buildings and objects along the way, they were all turned into useful things.

"Well, the whole city is broken anyway, you can do whatever you want," Qianhu still didn't care too much. Too many things were destroyed along the way, but it had no impact on this broken city at all.

"Well, although we destroyed a lot along the way, it probably had no impact on the city." Senju agreed with Qianhu's point of view. "No matter how much we destroy, the city will forget everything in the end."

"That is to say," Yuli seemed to have thought of something, "there must be someone who is tossing in the human head to forget things."

"The only thing that can make a banging sound is You's head, right? And who is 'someone'?" Qianhu complained, and then concluded, "In short, it is impossible to move forward without destroying it."

After the three of them continued chatting for a while, all the explosives were installed and the detonating device was also installed on it. The three of them stepped back a long distance. Qianju also installed several layers of iron walls on the side. The three of them So we lay down behind the iron wall and started discussing.

"Everything is ready and can be blasted at any time," Qianju reported on the side, and the two people next to him also looked over there. Yuli's rifle was also equipped with a telescope and turned into a sniper rifle.

"At this distance, can the detonation device be used?" Qianju was still a little worried, but looking at Yuri who was full of confidence, "Yu, I leave everything to you."

"Leave it to me," Yuli replied confidently. She was a sharpshooter with perfect accuracy. She lay on the iron wall and aimed at the detonating device. "Well, just hit the detonator."

As Yuri finished speaking, she remembered the sound of the gunshot, the bullet hit the detonator, and the surrounding explosives all remembered, "Oh, it worked."

With the explosion, a puff of smoke and dust rose up around them. The three of them sat behind the iron wall and waited for the dust to dissipate. Yuli looked at the smoke and dust around her and sighed, "Actually, I quite like explosions."

"?" Qianju and Qianhu expressed doubts, then heard Yuri's explanation, "Wouldn't that give you a feeling of being alive?"

"Well, I can probably understand it a little bit," Qianhu and Qianju also seemed to understand a little bit. In this dim world, the ultimate explosion gives people a kind of shock and a sense of touch, which makes people know that they are still alive. .

The three of them sat behind the iron wall. After waiting for a while, there seemed to be no other sound except the explosion just now. The three of them stood up from behind and looked over there.

Chapter 157 The Ghost in the Tower

The three of them looked at the board through the gradually subsided smoke and dust. The crack there was slightly larger, but there was no trace of it falling.

"Ah, this doesn't feel like it's falling behind at all," Qianhu looked at the board and knew from the look that Yuri's plan had failed.

Yuli on the other side looked thoughtful, "But I do have a premonition that it will turn out like this."

"Didn't you bring it up?" Qianhu heard Yuli's so-called premonition, grabbed her face and shouted.

"It hurts so much, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Yuli quickly begged for mercy from the angry Qianhu, but at this time the lights on the collapsed lighthouse suddenly went out, and the surrounding area became dark.

"It seems that the explosion just now completely destroyed the lighthouse," Senju sighed as he looked at the darkness around him. However, it was surprising that the lights could last for a while after the lighthouse fell to the ground.

"That's right, the lights disappeared too," Yuri understood what was going on around her after hearing Qianju's words.

"It's night," Qianhu looked at the dim surroundings, ran to the car and rummaged around, "Put up a lantern, hold up a lantern."

"Use a torch," Qianju took out a torch and prepared to stick it next to him, but Yuri suddenly shouted, "Everyone, look at that."

After the two heard Yuli's shout, they looked around and found that there were several square grids on the huge tower leading to the upper level, and there were lights shining through those grids.

"There is light in the tower," Qianhu sighed, and the three of them approached the glowing grids. When everyone approached the tower, Qianhu touched one of the glowing grids, and a beeping sound came from it.

As the sound sounded, the side slowly rose up, and a black entrance appeared. The three of them stared at the entrance for a while, and a white illusory figure suddenly appeared there, "Welcome to the Sixth Kigan Tower. "

"Wow, ghost," Qianju was startled, that person

The shadow looks like a strange little girl, with a flashing circular symbol floating above her head, and her body is white and illusory. She looks like a sunny doll, but the two people next to her have no strange reactions. Instead, his reaction to Senju was a bit strange.

"I'm not a ghost, I'm the artificial intelligence in charge of this Kiganta Tower," the white figure explained. Qianju felt a little embarrassed when he looked at the two calm people next to him. After hearing the other party's explanation, he finally felt at ease, "Huh. , That’s it, I’m sorry just now.”

"That's okay, you're welcome here," the white figure twisted and hovered at the door, "Come in and take a look, I want you to do me a favor."

Qianju looked at the other person's constantly twisting body. People who didn't know better would have thought it was a ghost. However, Qianju didn't seem to be afraid of this 'ghost' at all. "Okay, we want to go in too."

Yuli was a little wary at first, but after listening to the conversation, she looked at the white figure curiously, as if she wanted to test what the other person looked like.

Qianhu went to drive the car on one side, and Qianju also tore down the iron wall. The three of them drove the car and entered the tower. After arriving at the tower, everyone found that it was also dark inside, so Qianhu opened the door. Car lights.

In front, a white figure led the way for the three of them. Her body seemed to be floating everywhere, and the three of them followed her on the passage.

"I didn't notice the entrance just now," Qianhu looked at the figure floating in front and asked curiously, "Is that board the entrance? It can't be opened."

"Well, because the power was taken away by the lighthouse outside, the entrance cannot be opened." The white figure walked backward to lead the way, his body became longer, and he answered the question facing the three people.

"Is it the lighthouse outside? It always provides light to the city. I thought it was always daytime." Qianju also thought of the wires connecting the lighthouse to the board.

"I feel the same way. I always feel a little confused these days," Yuli also said on the side. Everyone's mental state has been very strange these days.

"Well, the discontinuity between day and night is very important. Cutting off people's consciousness based on rules can prevent people from going crazy," the white figure explained there, and the three people in the car became somewhat silent.

After a while, Qianhu finally asked, "Well, we are looking for an elevator that can reach the top floor. Here..."

"Of course, it's here, let me help you lead the way," the white figure agreed immediately, turned around and started to lead the way, the circular symbol on his head also flashed and changed.

"What's that on your head?" Yuli was curious when she saw the symbol floating above her head.

"This is a fixed film," the white figure replied, and then explained, "It is a chart that can show my current status."

"What on earth are you? You don't look like a machine or a living thing. You're also a little transparent." Yuli looked at the figure floating in front of her with great curiosity.

"The reason it looks transparent is because this is a three-dimensional image." A white figure emerged from the middle of the car, startling the two people behind.

"It turns out it's a three-dimensional image." Qianshou touched it, and there was nothingness in front of it. "By the way, I wonder if you have a name."

"Yes, just call me No. [-]." No. [-] returned to the front to lead the way, "Please go this way, and be careful where you step."

"What are you doing here on the [-]th?" Yuli looked at her curiously, "It looks very familiar here."

"I am originally responsible for managing the artificial intelligence of this backbone tower. Although I am responsible for many other tasks, my basic role is still as a mediator between humans and machines," Number Six said while dancing around happily. Standing up, its long body looks like a flying white ribbon.

The more she talked, the happier she became. She stretched her body and spun around the road. "It is still difficult to negotiate for the values ​​of both parties and guide the world in the direction of peace."

"Hey, why do you have to stretch your body so long?" Yuli looked at the long No. [-] with curiosity, not understanding the meaning of this.

"Because I'm very happy." No. [-] hovered in the air and popped up from various places. "It's been a long time since I met anyone. Although I encountered many things, I was the one who closed the door, and the other five sisters also closed the door. We haven’t contacted each other for a long time, and I’m really happy that I finally met someone!”

Chapter 158 Death of Intelligence

"Oh, it's transparent." Yuri stood up and grabbed the floating body of No. [-]. Of course, she couldn't catch anything. She saw that she couldn't catch anything, so she stopped. "It will be very leisurely to be alone all the time. ?”

"I'm very free," No. [-] looked at the three of them from the side, "So I'm very happy here, even if it's..."

Number Six's voice gradually became lower, and the three of them didn't pay much attention to it. However, Qianju thought of a question that had been bothering him for a long time, and he had never found the right person to ask it. He just wanted to ask this artificial intelligence.

"By the way, No. [-], do you know why all human beings have disappeared?" Qianju looked at No. [-] and asked, "Even war will not make everyone disappear."

"It's because of the war. This city was ruined because of the war," No. [-] moved his head to Senju's

In front of us, "There are probably no humans left outside, the power supply in the city has begun to dry up, and many places have stopped moving."

"Is it really because of the war?" Qianju couldn't believe it. "Obviously, science and technology are so advanced. Human beings should be able to enter the universe. How could it end on this small earth?"

"You are right. Humans did enter space and began to explore, but that was a long time ago. There were still rockets used for exploration up there, and they should not be used anymore." No. [-] agreed with Qianju's idea. But the reality is different. Human beings are really trapped on the earth.

"Really? There are rockets and spaceships up there?" Qianju was a little excited. As long as it existed, he could repair it.

"There is a rocket launch site on the upper level. There should be some there. The spaceships are probably on the moon. The gravity conditions there are very suitable, but they are all abandoned now." No. [-] explained to Qianju, "The situation there No one understands it now.”

"Is that so?" Qianju nodded, thinking of the nihilistic future, "It seems very troublesome. It is very dangerous to leave the earth. I don't know if a planet suitable for human survival has been found."

Senju is actually overthinking this. The earth is actually a planet suitable for human survival. If he wants to find other planets, there won't be only humans on them.

"Turn right from here." No. [-] reminded him not to discuss the topic just now. After all, it sounded like it was just a delusion. Qianhu turned the car into a passage on the right. It was not very high inside. No. [-] was in The floor on one side started to swim, as if it was like water.

"We'll be at the elevator soon," No. [-]'s excited voice came from the surroundings. Yuli lay on the side and looked at No. [-] who was moving freely on the ground with envy. "Can you change into any shape? That's great, look. It looks like a lot of fun."

"Freedom is not such a good thing," the projection of No. [-] on the ground said. It seemed that Yuli's words reminded her of something. "If you can go anywhere with freedom, it means there is no place you really want to go." place."

"I just said it's very leisurely. What do you do alone?" Qianhu looked at No. [-] next to her and asked. According to No. [-], she has been here alone for a long time.

"Sometimes I write poetry," No. [-] answered on the side. Qianhu was a little curious, "Poetry? What does it look like?"

"Recently, it's all written in binary, which is a bit difficult for humans. Occasionally, I show it to machines," No. [-] floated to the front of the car.

"Indeed, the codes of machines are all composed of binary. Every human word is converted into binary and is a string of numbers." After Qianju listened to it, he understood the poems No. 0 said. For machines It is an easy-to-understand word for humans, but it is a string of 1s and [-]s with unknown meanings for humans.

"That's true." After No. [-] finished speaking, he stopped next to the wall in front. "This is it."

Qianhu stopped the car and looked at the wall there. Following No. [-]'s words, a door opened on the wall and bright light came from inside.

"Oh, it's so spacious." The three of them sat in the car and entered, only to find that it was a very huge room, with an area like a huge playground, and there were many lights lighting it.

"You can reach the top with this elevator," No. [-] floated to the side. Qianju looked around and found no similar devices. The surrounding area was a flat ground, with only some materials scattered around on one side. Li looked around and asked excitedly, "Are you starting this?"

She ran out of the car excitedly and looked around, while No. [-] floated to the other side, "If you want to go up there, I'll bring you the map you need for your destination."

"Ah, thank you," Qianhu thanked him and stopped the car. Qianju looked around in confusion. There seemed to be no machines in this room.

"In exchange, I have a request." Following No. [-]'s words, a cylinder slowly rose from the ground on one side, and then an operation interface appeared on it, "I hope you can operate this terminal."

The three of them walked over and took a look. The terminal exposed on the cylinder was a digital keyboard and a camera-like lens.

"Is this the interface for controlling the elevator?" Qianju looked at the keyboard and screen and felt very familiar. He stood in front and looked at it. "Do I still need to enter the password?"

"First, please enter these numbers," No. [-] did not deny, and then a string of numbers appeared above her head, "

**".

"Is this the password?" Qianju looked at the numbers above her head and pressed the corresponding buttons one by one. "Then, can the elevator be started?"

"It's not enough yet. Any of the three of us can do it. Please watch this shot." No. [-] shrank to the side of the column. Yuli lay on it and looked at it curiously, "What will happen if you do this?"

"I will disappear," No. [-] answered easily as if relieved. After Qianhu heard this, he quickly pulled Yuri away from the camera, "Yu, wait a minute."

However, the word 'authentication' appeared on the terminal, and No. [-] bowed to the three of them, "Thank you very much for helping me authenticate."

"What do you mean by disappearing?" Qianhu seemed to have thought of something, but he was not sure.

"disappear,

It is death to living things." As No. [-] said, the symbol on her head turned into a circle again, but cracks began to appear on it, and rapid sirens began to sound around her.

"Death? Why?" The three of them looked at No. [-] who was standing aside in shock. They couldn't help but asked anxiously, not understanding why she chose to die.

"I already want everything to be over," No. [-] stood there, the cracks on the fixed plate on his head gradually getting bigger. The three of them stood aside but there was nothing they could do.

Chapter 159 Maybe it’s a new life

"I have spent decades writing code that can destroy myself, but the final certification must be completed by humans." The projection of No. [-] still stood there and looked at the three people, explaining why the three were allowed to do this. s reason.

She looked at the sad and worried expressions of the three people and said, "Don't worry, the elevator will work after I disappear. This has been set up."

"No, that's not it." Qianhu looked at No. [-], feeling so sad that tears were about to flow out. "Just now we were chatting, let's put our hands together..."

"..." No. [-] seemed to understand Qianhu's mood. She immediately lay down on the ground, "Can you understand what eternity is without forgetting?"

"It's probably something that humans can't understand," Qianju couldn't help but answer. He couldn't ask about the elevator now, but he was looking forward to that eternity. "But eternity is what humans are chasing. Although it has never been No one ever got it.”

"Well, humans are so convenient. They can forget things at any time, and even if they die, they don't need to be certified," No. [-] lay there and sighed, but Qianju would not agree with it. This is probably the difference between humans and machines.

"Now, what does forgetting mean?" Yuri was a little confused. Qianhu explained on the side, "It means forgetting things. You are very good at it."

The three of them walked up to No. [-] and gently touched her illusory body. Yuli looked at her illusory body with some sadness, "Memories are too much in the way."

"It should be different from what You said," Qianhu complained. The memory of machines and humans should be different. Qianju also nodded, "It should be about data or something."

"No, it roughly means the same thing." No. [-] denied the two people's ideas. She slowly floated up from the ground, and her body began to gradually deform. "The accumulation of infinite memories and the accumulation of infinite losses will change the situation." All thinking leads to no solution, which is eternal sleeplessness."
