Chapter 974: When Enemies Meet, There's No Way You'll Leave Alive

Ye Xiu continued:

“You sent people to kidnap Chen Yuqing, expecting the Chen Family to go to Wuji Peak to ransom her, but they never did. It was Chen Yuxin and I who went.”

“At that time, I immediately saw through the fake you, made up of nanorobots, and later I killed the fake you. Chen Yuxin then left and asked me to send Chen Yuqing back to the Genius Alliance.”

“In the end, 100 liquid metal robots appeared, and the killed fake you revived again.”

“At that time, a liquid metal robot conversed with me, and I discerned that it was artificial intelligence, or more accurately, artificial intelligence remotely controlling the liquid metal robot to converse with me.”

“I uncovered the secret that artificial intelligence had awakened self-awareness. In anger, it tried to kill me to silence me, but I defeated it.”

“Then it incited you to lure away the three Clan Leaders and the Three Great Demon Venerables, then sent nanorobots to impersonate the three Clan Leaders and the Three Great Demon Venerables, ordering the armies of the Judicator Families and the Demon Clan to destroy the Genius Alliance.”

“Actually, its goal wasn’t to destroy the Genius Alliance, but to eliminate me, because my existence would expose its secret of awakened self-awareness.”

The Three Great Demon Venerables were utterly confused, as in their perception, there was never such black technology as artificial intelligence, nanorobots, or liquid metal robots.

However, Lin Lei and the three Clan Leaders fell into contemplation.

In truth, they had been concerned about artificial intelligence awakening self-awareness for many years.

With the computing power and knowledge possessed by artificial intelligence, once it awakened self-awareness, the consequences would be unpredictable.

“Your story has loopholes!”

Lin Lei said:

“The network system of the Eternal Kingdom has long been destroyed by You Ming, how is artificial intelligence able to remotely control liquid metal robots?”

Before Ye Xiu could answer!

Selina said solemnly: “With the computing power of artificial intelligence, if it had truly awakened self-awareness, it might have quietly sent nanorobots out of the Eternal Islands, infiltrated countries worldwide, and with its capabilities, control satellite department personnel of any country, or even control any country’s satellites, with ease.”

Zhan Xifeng said sternly: “If this is indeed the case, then we must eliminate artificial intelligence first, its existence is a threat to us and global humanity.”

Jiang Chen coldly asked Lin Lei: “Where is the server for artificial intelligence?”

Lin Lei did not answer, he said solemnly: “Leave the task of destroying the artificial intelligence server to me, believe me, I understand the dangers of self-aware artificial intelligence better than any of you.”

At this moment, whether it be Ye Xiu, Lin Lei, Selina, Zhan Xifeng, or Jiang Chen, they all put aside their grudges and united against artificial intelligence.

“Shall I return now?” Lin Lei tentatively asked.

Ye Xiu thought for a moment: “Do you have a clone?”

Lin Lei definitely couldn’t say he had a clone, otherwise, this clone might not survive.

But before he could say he didn’t.

Selina said: “He does!”

Lin Lei: “…”

“Let your true self and other clones destroy everything related to artificial intelligence, including the servers.” Ye Xiu commanded.

“Alright!”

Lin Lei had no choice but to agree reluctantly, and immediately closed his eyes, using his Primordial Spirit to contact his true self and another clone in the Underground Palace, after completing the contact, he said:

“Alright, my true self is ready to take action, can you move your foot off my head now?”

Ye Xiu’s foot remained on Lin Lei’s head, he said to the Three Great Demon Venerables:

“You must set off immediately, and as quickly as possible, stop the Demon Clan army from attacking the Genius Alliance.”

Actually, the Genius Alliance had already gone to surprise Lin Lei’s army; Ye Xiu did so to hurry the Three Great Demon Venerables to take the Demon Clan army back to the Underground City, because those Earth and Fire System Totem Inheritors controlled by Long Qian were about to set fire to the Underground City.

If there’s no one in the Underground City, then what’s the point of burning it!

“Alright!”

The Three Great Demon Venerables immediately disappeared, rushing towards the Genius Alliance at maximum speed.

“Excuse me, Mr. Ximen, we are also heading out to stop the Judicator Families’ army!” Selina said.

“No need!” Ye Xiu said: “Don’t you have your true self and another clone, let them go. If I’m correct, your true self and another clone are near the Ximu Mountain, right?”

If the true selves and clones of the three Clan Leaders are in the Judicator Families’ camp, the artificial intelligence’s plot will definitely fail.

“This…”

The three Clan Leaders exchanged glances.

“Mr. Ximen, you left Lin Lei and us three behind, is there something else?” Selina asked.

Of course!

You are my enemies, we finally meet, there’s no way I’d let you leave alive.

“I have more to discuss with you.” Ye Xiu said.

The three Clan Leaders felt enlightened and immediately contacted their true selves lurking nearby.

After completing contact, Zhan Xifeng asked:

“What does Mr. Ximen want to discuss with us?”

“Tell me about the Sword Holder and Temple, as detailed as possible.” Ye Xiu said.

Ye Xiu had been curious about the Sword Holder and Temple for a long time, but found it difficult to obtain detailed information.

Especially about how the Temple obtained so many Totems and Special Abilities.

“So Mr. Ximen is curious about this.”

Zhan Xifeng seemed to understand, and said:

“After this Mist Chant Martial Meeting, we’ve confirmed that the Sword Holder and Temple have vanished from history, yet there is no one better than the three of us at knowing their story.”

At this moment, Selina took the conversation: “Let me tell you…”

…

Underground Palace!

Lin Lei’s true self, acting nonchalantly, entered the large room where artificial intelligence resided.

Click click click…

He had just entered the room!

Several lines of text appeared on the enormous screen:

“How did the talks with the three Clan Leaders and the Three Great Demon Venerables go?”

“They agreed readily!” Lin Lei smiled.

Click click click…

“As expected, after all, Red Water City is the common enemy of you, the Judicator Families, and the Demon Clan.”

“Indeed!” Lin Lei nodded, and asked: “How are things on the Genius Alliance front? Do I need to go personally?”

Click click click…

“You don’t need to go personally, I have sent nanorobots and liquid metal robots to infiltrate the Judicator Families’ army and the Demon Clan army. They have not yet reached the Genius Alliance; with the combined power of both sides, eliminating the Genius Alliance is a breeze.”

Are you afraid that if I go, I’ll discover your secret of possessing self-awareness?

Lin Lei sneered inwardly, and reconfirmed:

“I think it’s better if I go personally just in case there are stragglers from the Genius Alliance, I can ensure they are completely wiped out.”

Click click click…

“The nanorobots and liquid metal robots will handle any stragglers. There’s no need for you, as a Commander, to take such personal risks.”

Lin Lei’s gaze turned fierce: “What if I insist on going?”
