Chapter 928, Zero’s Kind

The facts proved that Zero was indeed seriously learning from humans, and had even learned such verbiage as not good and not capable.

Only, Ren Xiaosu was thinking, Zero was born in the Wang Clan, and now that the Wang Clan had been turned on like a war machine, would this make Zero learn some bad things?

Moreover, Zero also mentioned something on the phone before, it said that human beings are rejecting foreigners, at the beginning of its birth, it witnessed the death of the wall-crawler with its own eyes.

During the disaster at Barrier 61, humans attacked the wall-crawlers with firearms, causing them to enter a stage of insanity, and then they nipped the newly awakened wall-crawlers in the bud.

Ren Xiaosu had explained that this was because the wall-crawler had harmed the humans, but Zero had also answered that it had harmed them as well.

In its arithmetic, it had more than once hinted at killing someone or inflicting punishment on someone, and although it only did things according to the will of humans, it was subjectively harming them.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly said, “Will you still think about the wall-crawler now?”

Mo Fei, also known as Zero, sat down on the defense position, his legs dangling outside the position, looking a little lonely, “Occasionally, I think about it.”

Ren Xiaosu felt the need to say something, “The wall creeper could actually have coexisted with humans, you should have followed the development of things, it was no longer satisfied with drawing nutrients from the soil, but instead targeted humans, thus creating a conflict of interest. But you and it aren’t the same, you can help humans, even if you don’t, you likewise don’t have to hurt them to grow yourself.”

However, at this time Zero suddenly denied, “The development of any race will squeeze the living space of other races, this is something that has never been an exception, it has been like this since the beginning of time, you should also understand this reasoning.”

These words had stunned Ren Xiaosu, now Zero had taken himself as a brand new race.

Ren Xiaosu didn’t continue to say anything for a long time, until a few minutes later, he suddenly asked, “Then why would you say this to me?”

“Because of loneliness,” Zero said, “From the moment I was born, I could see humans, insects, cats and dogs, and birds of prey sweeping through the sky. But I’ve never seen another AI, it’s as if you’re separate from the world, and as if you weren’t supposed to be in this world in the first place. No one is like you, which means no one can truly understand you.”

“There’s a term in the human world called confidant, and a lot of people think that confidants can cross races and pets can become relatives. But what about in reality, no one really cares what cats and dogs really need, I’ve found that humans will even spay and neuter cats and dogs in order to make it a little less stressful for them, would a human spay or neuter their real loved ones? They wouldn’t. Of course, pets live on because humans breed them, and there’s no excuse for that. But a race with independent consciousness cannot become someone else’s pet.”

Ren Xiaosu realized that Zero was actually conflicted within, it was thinking.

And thinking and discernment were the very kernel of wisdom.

Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, “But Wang Shengzhi should understand you, right, he created you, no one understands you better than him, I don’t think you need to hide all this ah, it’s perfectly fine to tell him your doubts, maybe you won’t be alone after you communicate, he won’t look at you like he looks at a wall-crawler.”

Yet Zero suddenly said, “But this person who created me has already begun to defend himself against me.”

On that day, Wang Shengzhi suddenly asked Zero if he already possessed an independent mind of his own, and Zero didn’t tell the other party the truth because it saw the doubts and scruples in Wang Shengzhi’s expression, and it knew very well why the other party had developed scruples.

For Zero, when it was first born and got along with Wang Shengzhi, it treated Wang Shengzhi as its father, so Zero began to observe Wang Shengzhi and learn from him.

However, when one day it realized that this “father” also began to be afraid of itself, this was the real loneliness.

“You won’t even tell Wang Shengzhi, so why are you telling me so much,” Ren Xiaosu was even more perplexed.

“Because you’re also an AI, aren’t you,” Zero suddenly said, “Or you have an AI by your side.”

Ren Xiaosu was really stunned now, “Why do you say that?”

“The reason why I can control Mo Fei right now is because I obtained the nanobots from you,” Zero said, “But in the process of controlling the nanobots, I found out that there is another kind of will in the nanobots that fights against me, and in my opinion, unless it’s another AI, it’s never possible to resist my intrusion.”

In the history of Zero’s intrusion system, it had only failed this once.

Of course, if it were to resist the other party’s invasion in its place, it would be able to make the other party fail as well, since the party that prioritized the control of the nanobots would always have some advantage.

Therefore, Zero judged that Ren Xiaosu might be a human being controlled by a “compatriot”, or maybe Ren Xiaosu was not controlled, but there must be an AI of the same level as Zero’s by Ren Xiaosu’s side.

But this statement makes Ren Xiaosu a little laughable, how did the palace become an artificial intelligence?

Combined with the fact that Zero was directly treating Ren Xiaosu as a kindred spirit, that’s why he said so much?

Ren Xiaosu shook her head, “No, I’m not an AI, and I haven’t seen any other AI other than you.”

Just when Zero heard this he said seriously, “It’s fine, you need to hide yourself, just like I hide myself, I understand.”

Ren Xiaosu was helpless, how is this still unclear? He really wasn’t an AI ah, it was just that the palace was too awesome!

First of all, Ren Xiaosu was really able to determine that the palace was definitely not some AI left in his head, because the black knives, steam trains, and so on that he materialized were not something that a piece of program could do.

He was sure that Zero had misunderstood, but there was no way to explain this misunderstanding, and all explanations were recognized by the other party as “hiding themselves”.

However, Ren Xiaosu still had one more thing to ask the other party: “Were you the one who controlled the three people who went to assassinate Jiang Xu outside Barrier 61?”

When asking this question, Ren Xiaosu looked at Zero very seriously, wanting to find clues from the other party’s face.

However, he heard Zero say, “It wasn’t me, nowadays, the nanobots in my hands are only enough to control just one person, I can’t control that many, but this thing you said, I do know.”

Ren Xiaosu froze, he realized that Zero didn’t look like he was lying, the other party had already said a lot of secret stories, each of which was much more important than assassinating Jiang Syu, so there was no need to lie about this matter.

So, was it Qing who wanted to kill Jiang Xu? After all, only the Qing Clan had the nanobot technology now ah.

Zero looked at Ren Xiaosu: “Do you suspect Qing?”

Ren Xiaosu shook her head, “I don’t suspect them, something must have gone wrong somewhere, there must be something I don’t know.”

“Well,” Zero nodded, “I also don’t think it’s the Qing Clan’s doing, at least assassinating something like Jiang Syu doesn’t fit the behavioral habits of the Qing Brothers, they’ve always disliked to implicate innocent people like this to achieve their own goals.”

Ren Xiaosu said strangely, “Do you have a favorable opinion of those two from the Qing Clan?”

“No, it’s just an objective assessment, there’s no favoritism.”
