20demayo Chapter 333 The First Imperial War
Chapter 333 The First Imperial War
At this moment, war broke out.
The flashing light from the starship's star-destroying cannons tore through the universe.
Countless lives were lost in this war, all with one goal.
That is, wealth.
Interstellar trade did not bring them wealth; instead, it made them even poorer.
At this moment, war is the best answer.
But in the eyes of these geniuses, time had fast-forwarded.
The entire border star trade war unfolded like a documentary, rapidly unfolding before the geniuses' eyes.
This was the first moment predicted by the erudite monk. Under the watchful eyes of the geniuses, the sudden sound of gunfire in the universe took away countless lives.
But the Venerable One was not swayed by the cries of these lives in the war, for it was merely a result of His calculations.
The war continues, but Screws Goom brings up the console for simulating the universe.
"What are you going to do, Screw?" Black Tower stepped forward and asked.
"The epic feel of war does indeed make it highly entertaining."
"But I focus more on the results."
Screw Gum pressed the button on the control panel.
Suddenly, the surrounding scenery began to change.
The backdrop is no longer the vast and boundless universe, but the headquarters of the Interstellar Peace Corporation.
Because, while the border trade war was underway, internal strife also began within the company.
This internal strife directly led to the later Imperial Wars.
For the company, war is just a small part, the least worth mentioning part.
Now that the resources in the border system have been squeezed dry, let's change our target.
The company's various departments reached a consensus and resolutely abandoned the mediocre project of Bianxing, turning their attention to the inorganic world.
In the company's view, the inorganic world is like an unexplored blue ocean, much like the Americas before they were discovered by Columbus.
While the border trade war was raging, Dewayne from the Technology Department, with his old mindset, was the first to think of occupying and colonizing the inorganic world.
He immediately began recruiting mercenaries and establishing an armed legion, which he then sent to the planet Sepulgo.
On the other hand, Faenza of the Propaganda Department also established a cooperative relationship with the Inorganic Planet.
However, a minor incident occurred during the cooperation: some inorganic galaxies encountered problems exchanging resources with the outside world.
In order to understand and solve the problem, inorganic life sent representatives to attend a banquet.
At the banquet, Faenza attended and explained the reason for the accident.
One of her subordinates failed to pay interstellar taxes on time, leading to the collapse of the Bewitching Star polity under Faenza's control.
But that doesn't matter. Others will take over the business of inorganic life forms, and it won't affect our relationship with them.
With the shift in corporate strategy, inorganic life has taken center stage in the universe.
More and more inorganic life forms are becoming active in the universe.
At this moment, the border trade war has entered its final stage.
The backlash from the peripheral galaxies was like a mayfly to the company, doing nothing to shake its monopoly.
Even the galaxies destroyed in this war were completely forgotten before they could even utter their final roar.
Because what is appearing now is inorganic life.
But behind this false prosperity lies a deadly crisis.
The loading and unloading department's Kolapau is studying anti-organic equations.
"So, what you want to know is this, the screw?" Black Tower asked.
“What did Fuli leave behind?” Screw Gum asked.
“Some familiar data surfaced in the sky, which is of great significance to me.”
Screw Gum was silent for a moment, then said, “Phenomenon: After the Interstellar Peace Corporation caused the border planet trade war, inorganic life forms have become active in the universe for no reason. Logic: The company is threatening inorganic life.”
Black Tower frowned. "Why?"
"Isn't it a good thing that omnipotent machines have taken center stage in the universe?"
"What kind of activity are you referring to, good or bad?" Black Tower asked.
“Behavior, emotions, body temperature, rise and fall, killing, chaos, disorder... something that shouldn’t be present in inorganic life has appeared.”
"It cannot be ruled out that the appearance of the 'mystery' has erased some certain facts."
The component on Screw Gum's eye rotated a few seconds faster.
"Conclusion: Something terrible has happened, and I am saddened by it."
After Screw Gum finished speaking, the background changed again.
The company's founder, Fleming, announced his retirement.
At the scene of the retreat, the Memory Star God [Fu Li] suddenly appeared.
"That's [Floating Dawn]?" Eve asked, somewhat surprised.
When she first entered the simulated universe, Fu Li was the first person to talk to her.
Although it is unclear what He said.
What is He doing here?
“Perhaps it was to record this moment,” Black Tower said.
"The retirement of the company's founder is a moment worth recording."
After exchanging a few seconds of eye contact with Fleming, Fu Li disappeared.
But He left behind three observable memories.
"He left behind memories?" Eve looked over.
Through layers of mist, Eve saw three observable memories.
The first principle is the calculation of the All-Knowing One: according to His calculations, the universe will usher in three irreversible moments.
The second prophecy, the end: a piece of fabric will bring about the end, a piece of silk suitable for women to wear.
The third riddle is a mystery: He left no riddle, but the answer is blood and flowers.
“I understand the first one, but what do the second and third mean?” Eve frowned slightly.
After thinking for a while, ScrewGumm said, "These three revelations all point to the same equation: the anti-organic equation."
"Why?" Ruan Mei asked.
"Because the company has already begun colonizing the inorganic life zone."
After Screw Gum finished speaking, the scene changed again.
The forces of memory, including the Beginning Heaven, have reappeared. They have collected enough memories to bring about an even more vast revelation.
A war far larger and more terrifying than the borderline trade war will erupt after a certain antivirus program is activated.
"Antivirus program?"
"Could this be the anti-organic equation?"
Eve expressed doubt about the revelation from Sudarsana.
Screw Gum nodded. "That should be true."
At this moment, time moved forward once again.
The mercenaries sent by the company's technical department to colonize the inorganic planet have reached their destination, Cyprugo.
On this planet, there are all sorts of strange creatures: omnipotent machines, futuristic beasts, and swarm machines. The mercenaries' destination is the center of this planet, the anti-organic equation in the Emperor Rupert program.
"The anti-organic equation, is it on this planet?" Eve continued to ask.
“Yes, this planet is the stronghold of inorganic life, or you could say it’s the stronghold of Emperor Rupert,” Screwgoom said.
"On the planet Cyprugo, Rupert was originally a discarded computer in a junkyard, but he miraculously awakened self-awareness."
"Its initial structure was extremely rudimentary, with only 90GB of memory, an old motor, and a single-finger robotic arm, but through continuous self-improvement, it eventually rose from a waste landfill."
"Through continuous self-improvement of computing power, Rupert, with his sophisticated computing abilities surpassing those of organic life, attracted the attention of the Star God 'Erudite,' and was invited to join the 'Genius Club,' receiving the number 27 and becoming a rare inorganic life form member of the club."
"It believes that the calculations of organic life are full of loopholes and fallacies, and will eventually spontaneously lead to its end (i.e., the "anti-life program")."
"Intelligent life forms, on the other hand, possess the characteristics of rigor, precision, and perfection. Based on this concept, they proposed the 'Anti-Life Equation' and spread it throughout the universe, attempting to replace organic life with intelligent machines."
"And the anti-life equation, which is what we call the anti-organic equation," Screws explained.
"Since Rupert has already created the anti-organic equation by this time, why hasn't the Imperial War started yet?" Black Tower asked.
Screw Gum shook his head. "I don't know. This equation wasn't activated immediately after it was created, and Emperor Rupert also went into hibernation."
Eve suddenly realized something: "Perhaps this is an opportunity for organic life."
"It's also an opportunity for the company."
"An opportunity?" Ruan Mei asked, puzzled.
"Destruction and survival are not contradictory."
"There is no irreconcilable cause and effect between inorganic and organic life."
“So, Emperor Rupert is waiting for another opportunity, an opportunity that will allow it to pass the agreement.” Eve’s tone was full of certainty.
At this moment, the scene has penetrated deep into the interior of the planet Cyprus.
A team of mercenaries infiltrated the planet Cyprugo, intending to steal its anti-organic equation, but were exposed by the Masked Fool, who had secretly joined the team.
They were immediately placed on a nationwide wanted list upon landing.
But with the company's support, they stumbled along the way, following the pioneering path, and finally arrived in front of a huge machine.
This is the very essence of Emperor Rupert, who is still asleep.
Looking at Emperor Rupert, the mercenaries felt fear and oppression.
This is the emperor of inorganic life, gazing at organic life.
Even when the emperor is asleep, he still maintains his majesty.
Just as the mercenaries were retreating and preparing to return the way they came...
The mysterious star god [Mystery] has descended once again.
He meticulously fabricated a fictional history.
Under the influence of the Star God, the mercenaries' hearts were changed.
Their hands, gloved with gas, inexplicably touched Emperor Rupert.
"Boom boom boom..."
As the urgent alarm sounded, Emperor Rupert awoke.
At the very moment the Emperor was revived, the anti-organic equation that it had once deduced and implanted into the inorganic life form was immediately activated.
There is no reason, no compromise, and no one has the right to ask: "Why? Why does its awakening result in more eternal slumber? Why is it so sacred, yet it must change the world through extinction? What has it experienced? Has it pondered like organic life?"
These questions have no answers; all that exists is the roar of machinery.
The First Imperial War, the counterattack of the Inorganic Empire, has begun.
The omnics began exterminating all organic life on the planet, including the mercenaries who had just come into contact with the Emperor.
War machines swept through cities, their massive bodies easily destroying skyscrapers.
In a region of the planet yet to be affected, a working couple is enjoying their dinner.
A simple bowl of star-shaped fried rice.
The moment the star-shaped flower fell, the husband bent down and picked it up with pliers.
At this moment, the wife asked, "Do you hate the people you are powerless to love?"
The husband replied, "You're a machine; where would you get love from?"
The wife said helplessly, "Okay."
"There are still clothes in the washing machine, remember to take them out to dry."
The husband nodded, got up and walked to the washing machine, taking out the clothes one by one to hang them out to dry.
At this moment, the anti-organic equation implanted within the android wife's body was activated.
Blood spurted out, staining the clothes on the clothesline red, just like the light shining in his wife's eyes.
The husband didn't say anything more, because he himself had become part of the laundry hanging out to dry.
The android wife killed her husband with her own hands.
Seeing this, the geniuses might have felt something, but they remained unmoved.
Because they know that this is war.
The First Imperial War.
The Anti-Organic Equation does not discriminate its targets. Even machines that have been transformed into human form and have long established connections with organic life will join the war, whether willingly or unwillingly, under the calculations of the Anti-Organic Equation.
Such scenes are playing out all over the universe.
The anti-organic equation craze has spread throughout the universe.
"Is this the beginning of the First Imperial War?" Eve's heart was far from calm.
In war, there will always be loss of life.
For Eve, who is about "life," this shouldn't mean much, because war is also a part of life.
But Eve's heart could not find peace.
Perhaps it's because she always loved people, including all life.
“That’s right.” Screw Gum nodded. “The revelation of Fuli has been established.”
"The anti-organic equation is like Pandora's box, which was activated by mercenaries and then spread throughout the universe like a virus."
"All three irreversible moments of the wise man have been achieved, and the delusion has failed."
Screw Gum was very satisfied.
In the simulated universe, he finally learned how the Imperial Wars began and how terrifying the anti-organic equations were.
“Perhaps you are right.” Ruan Mei approached Eve.
"This is a test that the emperor puts on organic life."
"If the company hadn't been thinking about the anti-organic equation, Emperor Rupert might never have woken up."
"War will never happen."
Ruan Mei's words were like a thorn, deeply piercing everyone's hearts.
Yes, this war was caused from the very beginning by the greed of organic life.
It all started with the company's disorderly expansion and plunder.
