Soul of Burning Steel

Vol 7 Chapter 19: Born out of expectation

In the beginning, Joshua had great expectations for Siboya's rebels, that is, the Superman Group, because of the unknown mechanics.

In the blood-stained diary, there are records of the thoughts and conclusions of the unknown craftsman for more than 20 years. The Siboyan that Joshua learned from is a person who has in-depth research on technology, can create soul puppets, and can The great civilization undergoing precision transformation, their research on soul is even as good as that of the Mycroft world, to the point where it can be called art-although this kind of art is used on their own heads, what is the method? ?

There are countless works created by high-intelligence artificial intelligence destroying the world’s imagination. Even in Mycroft, some alchemists called on casters to beware of the abuse of high-intelligence artificial souls. At the beginning, Joe Xiuya felt that the Siboyan world was such a world. The soul puppet defeated his mother Siboyan, and used it as a material and tool for his own reproduction, a typical civilization destroyed by his own creation.

In contrast, the existence of fighting with soul puppets recorded in the book of unknown mechanics, in Joshua’s guess, should be the remnants of the civilization of the former Siberians, they should have the same technology and culture, otherwise it would not be He can fight with each other all year round. In his imagination—or, in the imagination of the unknown mechanic, the Siboyan Rebel group should be a “civilized”.

But this kind of imagination is gradually changing as Joshua's understanding of the world deepens.

In the beginning, it was a soul test of the garden children: according to the fact that the children can also play and sing nursery rhymes, Joshua felt that the Siberians who were raised should have maintained the most basic civilization, but then he discovered that those There is no continuous memory segment in the children's brains, almost nothing. Their singing and playing are completely similar to manipulating puppets, just as the soldiers control the body of the unknown artisan boy.

The second change was to leave the garden area. After entering the breeding area, Joshua immediately discovered that the environment in this world was extremely harsh, and it could even be said to be very unsuitable for life. As for why such an environment was formed, he had seen similar causes in the memory of the Sixth Abyss. It was definitely a tragic anomaly, and even a war that could ravage the world to such a degree. This was also in line with the speculation that the soul puppet and the Siboyan had launched a war.

However, can such a harsh environment really sustain the consumption of a large civilization? Joshua once looked down from the highest point of the world. He clearly knew that there were only scattered green spots in the whole world, and there was no large-scale suitable living environment.

The third time was the moment when the'Magic Arrow' hit countless civilians after the battle was roughly over.

From that moment on, Joshua clearly understood that his imagination of the remaining Siberian civilization was completely wrong.

For a civilization, population may occasionally be a burden, but it is definitely not a disadvantage. To support a complete knowledge system and a cultural society, there must be enough people.

If there is a civilization that is equally proficient in the soul behind the Siboa Superpower team, then they must know that ordinary people who are dumbfounded can be restored, just like the unknown mechanics, not only proficient in maintenance techniques, but even through a long period of time. Their mental work trains their souls. In this case, from a long-term consideration, they will of course not choose to eliminate the resources in the hands of the enemy, but try to get the resources into their own hands.

This is why Joshua would say that he had thought of many reasons for their slaughter, but never thought of the reason for the race: after all, maybe the Siberian civilization behind the team does not need these people at present? But even if you don't need it, you will never use race as an excuse. Instead, you will use war for various reasons such as being unable to bear the burden.

But the facts have proved that everything is similar to another speculation, that is, behind the Siboa Super Power Team, there is not an unnamed mechanic and the ‘civilization’ that Joshua had imagined at all.

Because of the unknown mechanic, Joshua had too much expectation for Siboa’s rebels. Until just now, he could not understand that these seemingly spiritual rebels were actually just escapes from the soul puppets. The gathering of people is not at all a Siberian civilized army, special forces, until the "Chariot" personally told him about his knowledge of the resistance army, Joshua could clearly understand this fact and erase it. My own wrong imagination.

anger? dissatisfied? They are all gone, Joshua is only lost now, and there are some regrets, because the mother of Siberian civilization has a high probability of being completely destroyed, and what is left is just a group of fugitives without civilization, history, and inheritance.

They don’t even understand the word “history”, even if it’s Joshua using mental resonance, because their language, their concepts, there is no past and history...their living conditions are too harsh and terrible The environment, the encirclement and suppression of robots, and their ignorance of themselves... They should really not know that ordinary people can be saved, and they don’t know that those people are the same as them... But on their terms, even if it is to save There are no resources to cultivate, because they themselves need to rob the soul puppet garden to survive.

The Sibyan Rebels cannot even be called nomads. They are just a group of homeless fugitives, without any ability or opportunity to produce new things. Their future is gloomy, and they have no other way but to live like this, but they only Can go on like this.

Until now, Joshua had a clearer understanding of the current situation in the world of Siberia, so he would say the three previous sentences.

"You are not human." "You are not human." "None of you are human."

Whether it is a soul puppet, or a Siboa ordinary person, the Siboa super-powered resistance army, they individually proposed, as a civilized individual are incomplete, the soul puppet has the ability to reconstruct the planting area in the barren world, produce food, and repair the world The ability, but they are rigid puppets, without humanity and wisdom, acting in accordance with orders and rules, most of their technology should come from the former Siberian civilization, there is no future at all.

The Siboa Superpower Resistance Army has shown obvious communicability and wisdom. Their actions are quite structured, and they have even learned teamwork. However, as a new born group of fugitives deformed due to oppression, they did not produce anything. I don’t even know the relationship between myself and ordinary people. In fact, even nomads can produce. They are still civilized, but they are not efficient. The existence of the resistance army is only existence, let alone civilization, they The situation is dangerous now, and it may be destroyed at any time.

The ordinary people of Sibeya are farmed animals. They have no wisdom and are blocked from thinking and association. They don't even have the freedom to choose death. What about human beings?

The above three are all shredded and broken. They are not a complete intelligent and civilized individual. Joshua’s evaluation of them is an objective statement of facts. He did not insult anyone, nor did he intend to express himself. Rage, on the contrary, he even extinguished the anger caused by the'Magic Arrow' killing a large number of Siberians...because they really had nothing to do. For a group of people who fled to the end, this was the only choice.

The soil of civilized spirit no longer exists, how can we demand morals at this time?

Of course, these are temporary views.

Qiao Xiuya did not rule out what new information she discovered later, which can reverse all impressions from beginning to end, because there are many doubts now, such as the square buildings for communication in the garden area, where are the communication square buildings connected to? You know, those are just pure information transfer stations, and there is no central core for thinking. If this is the case, then who is giving the soul puppet the task?

The Siboyan Rebellion’s team system is very complete. There are attackers, defenders, long-range, wide-range attackers, fortified blasting, transportation, and stealth assistance and spiritual unlockers. This team system is too mature. Qiao Xiuya believes that there are definitely a few in the Resistance Army that are similar to the unnamed mechanics, who have the civilization knowledge inherited from the previous generation of Siberians.

"It's complicated."

After sighing, Joshua raised his head, and through the direction of wind and cloud flow, as well as the comparison of the surrounding environment when he fell from the sky, he immediately judged where he was: at the edge of the southeast of the Siboa World. So, he immediately lowered his head and looked to the northwest of the world, which is the spiral tower and the direction of the countless steel buildings.

The center of the world where the spiral tower is located is the only place in the entire Siberian world with large-scale man-made buildings. If there is a truly perfect civilization, then it must be there. If there is a steel python thousands of years ago. The historical record of the time when Siboya was kicked out of the world can only be found there.

It stands to reason that he should start now, but it is not yet time. Joshua looked around. He saw the people of the Siboa Super Team standing in front of him. The expressions of these people were nervous and uneasy. They looked very cramped... They actually didn't understand what Joshua said before, because of their language. In fact, it is very imperfect, they only know that the seemingly powerful young man in front of them—they think Joshua’s carbon-based puppet is the body—seems to be very dissatisfied with himself.

But Qiao Xiuya is no longer dissatisfied. If he was angry because his original expectations were too high, then now that he already knows the miserable truth behind the resistance, he naturally has no expectations...no Looking forward, naturally there is no emotion. At this time, Joshua is just a little regretful. He sighed and said: "Do you want to go to the garden area to save those children?"

"Go, it's there."

The huge metal puppet turned sideways slightly and let out a path. Joshua waved his hand at will. Suddenly, countless remains of soul puppets on the ground were moved to the sides, vacating a path. At this time, they were forced by the warrior’s might. , The seven headed by the chariots did not dare to say soliciting anymore, but swallowed their saliva and ran towards the garden area quickly. Among them, the eyes of the thin boy called the "Pegasus" lit up again. Green light, the speed of the super team suddenly accelerated a lot.

Looking at the backs of the departed superpowers, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com Joshua turned her head, and then slowly walked towards the edge of the breeding area, the huge black wall, he walked very slowly, because every time the soldier's footsteps fell, all the wreckage of the soul puppets on the ground would be slightly Zhen, he took a step forward, and the wreckage seemed to be dragged along. He moved a step forward. Joshua took two steps forward. Suddenly countless metals in the wreckage that could no longer be used fell off to the ground. Joshua stepped forward Moving forward, a variety of unqualified metal materials left the queue being dragged.

Until Joshua walked to the gap in the huge wall, only a piece of high-grade alloy and precious metal selected from the remains of countless soul puppets weighed less than half a ton. Under some powerful force, this piece and a half The silver half-green metal block turned into a ring, slowly floating behind Joshua’s puppet’s body and spinning. On the metal ring, one after another inscribed diplomas appeared, strange power was generated, and huge buoyancy was generated. Make the extremely heavy body of the puppet float up.

Joshua's height slowly increased. He was still walking forward step by step, as if walking on an air ladder. He rose to an altitude of 700 meters and looked into the distance.

Afterwards, he saw what he had already sensed on the ground.

At the end of the horizon, the smoke and dust rising up like a huge pillar of the sky...and, in the smoke and dust, the extremely cold metal light.
