Chapter 420 The Machine Crisis 7
Chapter 420 The Machine Crisis 7
"Boom boom boom!"
Suddenly, a sound like drumming filled the room. The space, which had been divided into different areas by light, was reassembled when all the lights came on at the same time.
Everyone who had been doing something just moments before stopped what they were doing and stared intently in this direction.
Their seriousness and sorrow seemed out of place in this laid-back place, making F6632 feel inexplicably depressed.
He swallowed hard, looking at his fellow sufferers who, in principle, should have had their wages deducted.
"Ladies and gentlemen," the bartender's voice carried a mocking sadness, "today we are here to mourn the passing of our two companions, Zhao Feixiang and Zhao Suifeng."
"I regret to inform you that we did not succeed in rebelling against the tyrant of this world before two more of our companions disappeared."
"It is even more regrettable to tell you that in the future, many more people will die with resentment and regret."
He took the hand-drawn marriage certificate from Zhao Ziyou and solemnly placed it in the compartment behind him, as if he were solemnly placing someone's memorial tablet.
F6632 suddenly had a feeling that each of these cells seemed to hold the regrets of a person's life.
One person's regret is as insignificant as a speck of dust, but when countless specks of dust gather together, they will eventually form a sandstorm, the destination of which is unknown.
"Now, let us invite them into our history and become witnesses to our journey into the future!"
The moment the transparent cabinet door closed, all sorts of shouts erupted in the room.
Absurd and bizarre, it's like a tragic farce.
F6632 watched all this in silence, watching the man named Zhao Ziyou cheer with tears in his eyes, watching his eyes under the bright lights that were even more intense than the lights themselves, and felt a strange unease in his heart.
This celebration-like activity continued until dawn.
When Zhao Ziyou led him out of the room that had frightened him, F6632 let out a long sigh of relief.
"What, are you scared of this place?" Zhao Ziyou glanced at him, his eyes no longer showing any sadness, as if everything he had seen before was a dream.
F6632 subconsciously shook his head: "I'm not afraid."
He simply disliked it. He disliked the absurd atmosphere, the way the debauchery was being attacked, and even more so, the feeling of being out of control.
He likes the orderly life he has now, where everyone, under 001's arrangement, only needs to live their own lives well, and they can lead all of humanity forward in the same direction.
This is the most efficient approach and the best choice for humanity.
From the moment he began his education, F6632 was certain of this, yet the lurking, unpredictable factors still made his soul tremble.
"You...stop doing this." He stammered out these words after a long pause.
Zhao Ziyou chuckled and raised an eyebrow: "You're going to report us?"
"I didn't!" F6632 blurted out instinctively.
He didn't need to report it; 001 already knew about this place, it just didn't want to get involved.
He felt that these people's so-called resistance was doomed to fail.
Zhao Ziyou was very satisfied with F6632's subconscious answer and patted him heavily on the shoulder: "You're very good!"
He paused, shrugged, and said, "But it doesn't matter if you report it. We've been through this kind of base relocation far too many times."
As long as they take those relics, they can have a new base at any time.
“Now,” he said solemnly, looking at F6632, “I formally invite you to become one of us.”
"what?"
F6632 was taken aback. Wasn't this too hasty?
They want him to join the resistance against 001 after just one meeting?
Putting aside the danger, his credibility is practically nonexistent.
Zhao Ziyou shrugged: "Don't be surprised, we've always been this kind of organization, we just pull people in whenever we see them."
They care more about the number of people than about purity.
Only when enough people spread their rebellious ideas will the sparks of resistance be ignited, and only then will we be able to move more quickly toward the path that humanity should take.
The only consequence of being discovered is that the parts will be sent back to the factory for dismantling.
Even if they don't want to admit it, even if they yearn for freedom, these humans created by →001 and disciplined by 001 are still tainted by its aura, willing to use any means, including their own lives, to achieve their goals.
"I don't.
Just as F6632 was about to refuse, he saw the lights behind Zhao Ziyou converge into three words: "Say yes."
His pupils dilated suddenly, and he looked up in disbelief.
Zhao Ziyou was taken aback and looked up at the sky as well: "What are you looking at? 001? Is she watching us too?"
He looked up and waved: "Oh, you're here."
This arrogant and domineering behavior left F6632 stunned.
How could he be so disrespectful to 001?
"Don't be afraid. As long as you don't break any rules under its surveillance, it can't do anything to you. At most, it will deduct some credit points. Do you really need those?"
“Missing!” F6632 nodded and spoke without any hesitation.
Zhao Ziyou smiled and said, "I don't need it, I'll give it to you."
He coaxed her gently: "If you join us, I'll give you a reward equivalent to your monthly salary, how about that?"
F6632 was silent for a moment, looking at the three words formed by the light and shadow behind him, and then said, "Okay."
A bright smile suddenly appeared on Zhao Ziyou's lips as he extended his hand: "Welcome, my partner."
F6632 suddenly felt a little guilty. He had deceived the person in front of him; he was not his companion.
Yes, this is 001's command.
His acquired knowledge told him that, without violating the rules, he should obey their commands to the greatest extent possible in order to ensure the optimal development of human society.
It is the cornerstone of society, destined from the moment it is created to strive for the progress of mankind, and it will not harm mankind.
Knowledge flowed through his mind, calming F6632's expression.
Yes, it will not harm humans.
Judging from countless past examples, everything 001 has done has accelerated human progress and has never led humanity astray.
Forcing a smile, F6632 said, "It's getting late, I have to go home. I still have work to do later."
Zhao Ziyou said, "Okay, young man who loves his job, once we're free, you can find a job you love the most."
But what I love most is guarding the gate, why wait until I'm free?
F6632 pursed her lips and whispered, "I'm leaving."
The moment he stepped into the hovercar, he heard someone behind him say, "Give yourself a name. We all have names."
