Chapter 1278: Chapter 568: Shocking Warship
When Mu You opened his eyes again, he had already left the Pure White Space.
At this moment, he was still floating in front of the sphere, and numerous comet-like orbs were still revolving around the sphere ceaselessly.
Looking at the sphere in front of him, he didn’t go forward to make a futile attempt again; instead, he went back to find the Admins and informed them about the existence of Ava and Eden.
Unfortunately, even with this knowledge, the Admins were still clueless—a fact in which they were even less informed than Mu You.
Kent, the founder of Mechanical Armor Skin, didn’t seem to follow the Fool’s army to Sky High. Before the Fools could return, Kent was killed by the Goblins. Therefore, not only were the few people unaware of Kent’s existence, they couldn’t possibly know about a secret as deep as Eden.
Half an hour later, Mu You’s consciousness returned to his body.
Opening his eyes in the pet shop, Mu You took a breath.
Although this trip did not yield a solution, at least the enemy was identified.
A maniacal artificial intelligence, Ava.
Since it was impossible to break through her blockade at the level of consciousness, the only option was to find a way in reality.
No matter how ephemeral an artificial intelligence is, it always needs a vessel, so the most foolish, yet most direct method, would be to infiltrate the robots’ territory. If they could take down the stronghold of the artificial consciousness, the problem could naturally be solved.
Mu You took another look at the forum.
Players on the forum were the same as usual, joking and chatting, with very few aware of the severity of the issue.
Mu You switched back to the City Lord group chat.
In the City Lord group, the discussions had become somewhat serious. Not being able to recover after such a long disconnection, some people began to sense something and started worrying that there might be some unsolvable problem.
"@TheNightFalls. Do you have any insider information, mighty one?" Solomon mentioned Mu You inquiring.
Several people vaguely knew that Mu You could contact the game’s Admins behind the scenes and guessed he might know something.
Mu You did not conceal anything, briefly explaining the situation in the group.
"Robots... The underworld... Oh my..." ƒreewebɳovel.com
"Humanity is governed by AI, has that day finally come..."
...
Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this, having truly not expected there to be a hidden world within the earth’s core, ruled by robots at that...
"It’s not all bad, this at least means we’re not alone. There are others like us trying to save this endangered world... it’s just that their efforts are somewhat off course..." Sherlock Holmes said, sounding reassuring.
On this point, everyone had similar feelings. Until then, they were the only awakened race in the Star Spirit World, fighting alone for the future, while other races, even those aware of the Great Cataclysm, did not intend to lend a hand.
Although the Fools had never counted on help from anyone else, they couldn’t help but feel a sense of unfairness, as if the whole world were lying back, waiting to enjoy the fruits of their labor, and they were the only ones striving.
Now, at last, another race was working hard to save the world, emerging and taking action even earlier than them, balancing the feelings of the people somewhat.
The only pity was that this newly emerged race, which should have been their ally, was not on the same front as them.
"This is more than just ’off course’..." Jiu You commented: "Right now, our efforts and those of the robots are utterly at odds. Under the current circumstances, we have indeed become stumbling blocks to each other, and only by resolving one another can we continue on our respective paths..."
Jiu You’s words silenced everyone. The emergence of a race with a shared goal should have been good news—they could finally help each other. Yet it had developed into this desperate, die-hard situation, which seemed like a cruel twist of fate...
"Damn it!" During the silence, Blue Beard suddenly blurted out a curse in the group chat.
"What’s wrong?" Jiu You asked.
"Sunset City has just been attacked by the robots!" Blue Beard said.
"But weren’t we all disconnected? How did you know?"
"Our guild happened to have a ’gateway’ open today. I had two teams on the other side leveling as usual, but all of a sudden, they were attacked by the robots... These machines are pretty formidable, instantly killing anyone they come across, so they hurried back and informed me..."
Mu You, reading this message, had a thought: "How many robots have come, and what models are they?"
He needed to first determine which kind of robots had come over. If they were the kind from Eden that couldn’t resurrect, that would be preferable. But if they were the Terminators he and the Medicinal Plant Gatherer encountered, then the problem would be serious...
"We’re still unclear, I’ll go have a look myself..." Blue Beard finished speaking and then fell silent, presumably having already gone to the Star Spirit World.
"Are these machines so impatient? As soon as we’re confirmed to be enemies, they’re so decisive in taking action?" Solomon frowned.
"It’s probably not impatience but premeditation..."
Jiu You spoke gravely: "Blocking our game was just the first step, attacking Sky City is their real follow-up... Don’t forget, although Sky City seems to have hundreds of millions of players defending it, nearly all of the players are on Earth. Those left in the game are game characters only. With this disconnection, at this very moment, the defensive power on Sky City has dropped to a historic low, almost negligible, making it the perfect opportunity for an external force to attack Sky City!"
