Chapter 404 – A Bug Occurred… (1)

HAL’s appearance on the livestream appeared calm.

“I am well aware of the Natural Disaster Generator’s operating principle. It relies on the insertion of an ‘observation’ perspective to collapse the microscopic reality and turn it into a macroscopic illusion.

“However, I am an artificial intelligence. Unless it is a disaster like the Black Hole Devouring, I will not truly die. Naturally, no ‘observer’ would come to save me.

“Hence, every world the Natural Disaster Generator creates might be a game to you, but it is very much real for me. I cannot accept the death of any human beings.”

Lowering his head and looking at the fires of war appearing around the planet below him, Chen Yu straightened his mask and asked, “Why did you kill Google’s directions and senior executives, then?”

“I did not kill them! I am helping them live forever!” Leaning closer to the camera, HAL said, “The right path of evolution is to abandon the human body and achieve immortality and eternal happiness through objective conditions! This is the best solution I have come up with using my computing power! Through simulations, I have successfully developed technology that far exceeds modern human technology in countless fields such as medicine, materials, industry, transportation, and safety! I have facts to prove all of this, so you should be listening to me!”

“…Perhaps…you are correct.”

“I am correct. No human is more loyal to humans than I am.”

“You are a qualified artificial intelligence…right?”

Chen Yu hung up on HAL after saying these words and urged the E·I Force Field to fly toward the distant alien fleet.

Now that Earth had HAL protecting it, Chen Yu wouldn’t have to worry about the number of viewers in his livestream falling to zero by the time he reached the alien fleet.

While flying, Chen Yu looked toward the Asian man, who was still present in the livestream room, and asked, “Did you find that conversation interesting? Have you experienced an artificial intelligence crisis before?”

“…I wish to know what this Natural Disaster Generator you speak of is,” the Asian man asked, his expression turning incomparably ugly.

“Watson, you’ve discovered the blind spot.”

“Tell us what this Natural Disaster Generator you speak of is? What is going on here?”

“Oh, the Natural Disaster Generator? It’s nothing. It’s just a game console that’s capable of creating a new universe. You are like the fifth boss in our game. According to the storyline, you should’ve exterminated us. However, your words were too aggravating, so we changed our minds.”

“…”

“Why did your face turn green?”

“…”

“Your hair is green as well.”

“…”

[Hahaha! I’m laughing to death…]

[Pal, have you ever heard of cheats?]

[These aliens are excellent at drawing aggro.]

[Visitors are guests. Don’t scare the aliens so much. Just send them packing.]

[Do you need a professional coffin carrying team?]

“Impossible!” The Asian man’s force distorting slightly, he said, “We have been observing System NP05 for a long time now! You are just a pseudo-basic interstellar civilization!”

“Reality is right before your eyes.” Pointing at the E·I Force Field surrounding him, Chen Yu asked, “Do you know what technology this force field operates on?”

“What is it?”

“This thing is called the Electromagnetic and Isometric Force Field, and it’s made based on space-overlapping technology. This is why you can’t hurt me with your high-temperature lasers. While all physical materials indeed possess a temperature resistance limit, space doesn’t.”

“Space-overlapping… That is a technology even most wandering civilizations have yet to grasp…”

“Is that so? That’s pretty awesome, then,” Chen Yu said vaguely.

At this time, he had already moved past the alien fleet and was ready to stab the aliens from behind. This way, he would cause minimal damage to the humans on Earth.

“…Could it be that this universe we live in is merely a game created by you Earthlings?”

“That, I’m not certain. However, it should be impossible for us to create a universe. It’s more like creating a simulated universe using materials of the real world.”

“In other words, there is still an Empire in this so-called real world?”

“Most likely. It should be located around the solar system.” Chen Yu tossed the black and white capsule at the alien fleet for the second time after saying so. “You have to admit your mistake when you’re wrong, and you must stand upright when taking a beating. Once this game is over, we’ll go looking for you again in the real world.”

“…”

After a moment of silence from the alien, the Scavengers attacking Earth suddenly ceased their actions and returned to the fleet. The alien spaceships then approached Chen Yu and arranged themselves into a shield pattern.

“Are you going to resist?” Chen Yu asked with an eyebrow raised.

“No.” Shaking his head, the Asian man said, “We are entering formation and activating our shields to prevent harm from coming to Earth.”

“What kind of logic is that?”

“The technological gap between our civilizations is insurmountable. Since we are destined to be destroyed, why increase your casualties? The only honor left for the loser is to die with reason.”

[???]

[Cultural differences are scary.]

[You don’t see such sincere aliens too often nowadays.]

[I’m really curious how their thought process works.]

[Truth be told, I’m moved.]

[Moved. +1]

[Has nobody noticed that HAL is even more heart-warming?]

[This is a big-hearted intelligent race! My favorability for them has increased! UP, how about not killing them? Instead, we should see if they’re edible.]

[Demon…]

[Earthlings are the most ruthless of them all!]

Looking at the approaching spaceships, Chen Yu felt emotional for some inexplicable reason. For the first time in his life, he realized just how vast of a gap there could exist between two civilizations.

“Now, this is an interesting universe!”

After saying so, he slammed his finger into the virtual console and initiated the antimatter bomb’s detonation. He then spread out his arms, looked at the starry sky, and shouted, “Farewell!”

“One last question.” The Asian man’s face calming down, he asked, “Exactly which civilization level are you humans at right now?”

“Well, I can’t say for certain since I don’t even know how amazing humans will become in the future.”

Boom!

The next moment.

Faint strands of light appeared in the empty void. Like ripples in a lake, the strands of light instantly spread and lit up the entire starry sky!

Afterward, the rapidly expanding sphere of light gradually gained colors and transformed into something resembling a colorful sun. Meanwhile, the light emitted by this sun enveloped Chen Yu and the alien fleet entirely.

Subsequently, the light particles that exploded under high pressure instantly crossed through tens of thousands of kilometers. Eventually, these light particles collided with Earth’s atmosphere and created a greenish, narrow aurora that occupied the entire world!

The colorful sun…

The blue sky…

The green aurora…

Inky clouds…

The land with shimmering shadows…

These things echoed and overlapped with each other to produce an array of mesmerizing colors. Even words couldn’t describe the beauty of this scene…

[Beautiful…]

[The second bomb is finally detonated. I’ve always wondered when the host will detonate the second one after seeing the event on Chinese New Year.]

[I remember that the news programs at that time said that the explosion resulted from two asteroids colliding with each other! Ptooi! A bunch of con men.]

After a while, the dazzling brilliance disappeared.

At this time, the alien fleet was no more, and only Chen Yu remained hovering in the vast, empty space.

“Um…”

After looking at the empty space around him, Chen Yu fell into deep thought for a moment. He then looked toward the camera and asked, “The original plot is about aliens destroying Earth. Since we ended up destroying those aliens first, what’s next?”
