The sixth satellite city. The wasteland scene has long been flattened and rebuilt. Steel factories stand on the surface, turning into gray-silver towers that penetrate the clouds. The engines roar, and the intelligent machines rotate. The precise production system creates more intelligent machines. The number of layers piled up forms multiple and exponential growth until every bit of resources on the planet is squeezed out. This is Xu Xi's plan. The starry sky is dangerous and contains a lot of unknown malice. For prevention and self-protection, Xu Xi is collecting resources as much as possible to prepare for future starship manufacturing plans. "Master, the soup is here." In the underground laboratory, the voice of the mechanical maid interrupted Xu Xi's recollection.
"Thanks, Ai Lei." Xu Xi took the hot soup from Ai Lei. The color is pure white and the smell is fragrant. Floating in it are fresh fungi that have just been picked. Thanks to the huge database and the unique computing power of the intelligent machines, there is no oolong incident of mixing poisonous fungi. "Well, not bad." "Ailei, your cooking skills have improved." Xu Xi drank the hot soup lightly, feeling the fresh taste flowing through his teeth, and couldn't help but smile and praise. "Thank you for your compliment, but I'm still a long way from it", the robot stood quietly, acting quite steady, but his ears were shaking fast. Somewhat cute. Under Ailei's gaze, Xu Xi slowly drank the hot soup. Whether it was the warm soup or the crispy and smooth mushrooms, they were all chewed and swallowed into the stomach. "This kind of life is really good..." Xu Xi put down the empty bowl, and the hardworking and capable Ailei took the empty bowl away immediately. She asked Xu Xi if he wanted a second bowl. Xu Xi smiled and refused. "Sit down, Ailei, don't be too busy in everything, you have to take a break", Xu Xi said, letting the robot servant who couldn't rest for a moment sit down and rest. "Yes, master", Ailei was very obedient and sat down obediently. Looking at Ai Lei like this, and looking at the familiar laboratory environment around him, Xu Xi couldn't help but recall the past. Especially that period.
The early days of knowing Ai Lei. Who would have thought that such a housekeeping intelligent machine, an AI named RTX-9090, would transform into an awakened existence with humanity? Xu Xi had thought about replicating this miracle, but failed in the end. The joy of the golden quality machine soul does exist, and it is possible for the intelligent machine to awaken itself. Just as people are different. There are also differences between machine souls. Not every machine soul can awaken enough self-awareness like Ai Lei. "Ai Lei, I will continue to trouble you for help in the future." "Yes, please rest assured that Ai Lei will always serve you." "You don't have to be so serious." Under the light, the dust was clearly visible, and the shadows of the man and the robot servant were long and thick, blending and intersecting in silence. The conversation echoed back on the empty wall. It seems quiet and warm. … [After ending the omnic rebellion, your new life is full of tranquility] [You like and enjoy this atmosphere] [You don’t need to think about the next attack, and you don’t need to worry about the harassment of the omnics. Now you can study technology as you like and relax in your spare time] [You once asked Ai Lei if she had any other plans for the future] [Ai Lei’s answer is the same as always, and has never changed, that is, to serve you until her machine soul is extinguished] [You hesitate to speak, and hesitate to speak] [Again, I feel that I am not a good teacher] [You try to correct it, but the loyal machine servant has its own principles. No matter how you try, her answer remains unchanged] … [Time flies, and summer falls on your Behind you, the cold wind of autumn precisely cuts you] [After several months of research, you have a deeper understanding of starship technology] [You successfully establish contact with the starship of the Old Federation] [Resonate with it and obtain the blueprint] [But the technology of the starship is too obscure and profound, and you can't understand it all. You don't feel anxious about this]
[You implement the idea of combining work and rest. Whenever your brain is tired, you will temporarily put down your research and choose to relax your brain with a leisurely daily life] [You are in the courtyard of the Sixth Satellite City, taking care of fragrant flowers and looking up at the stars with Ai Lei] [But you think that this alone seems not enough] [So, you take your loyal robot servant to a natural landscape far away] … The anti-gravity starship is very fast. It took less than twenty minutes to reach the cedar forest selected by Xu Xi from the Sixth Satellite City. When you walked out of the starship. What appeared in front of Xu Xi was such a beautiful scene. The mist lingered in the brown treetops, shuttled between the gaps of each leaf, lingered around the tree trunks, merged silently, and revealed a strange and gorgeous halo under the morning light. There was water in the forest, and the water surface was like a mirror, symmetrically showing the natural wonder. "Ailei, do you think this scene is beautiful?" "Very beautiful." In response to Xu Xi's question, the robot servant answered truthfully. But she was puzzled. Why did Xu Xi ask her. Indeed, beautiful scenery can relax people's hearts, but robot servants are not among them. Cold machines can see beauty but cannot feel beauty. Xu Xi smiled and denied: "Don't you have that kind of thing, Ailei?" The robot servant was at a loss: "I also... have it?" "Of course," Xu Xi said, mentioning the water-playing incident a few years ago. It seemed like a childish act of play, but it was actually a perception of beauty. So, it's natural. There is no situation where Ai Lei can't examine beauty. "I see, thank you for your answer," Ai Lei seemed to have listened, but also seemed not to have listened. She squatted down blankly, picked up a dead leaf from the ground, looked at the yellowed texture on it, and fell into a long period of stillness. Such performance. Make Xu Xi curious. "Ai Lei, do you like cedar trees very much?" "I'm calculating whether the ingredients will become more delicious if these woods are used for barbecue."
The robot servant said this, with silver-blue eyes, calmly and seriously observing the trees in front of him, and gestured with his hands to indicate what size the name should be cut into. It can be seen that Ai Lei is serious. "Ai Lei, don't you like these views?" "I like it, but serving you is my first priority." Black hair like a waterfall, shining golden evening light. Ai Lei answered Xu Xi. She didn't hate the fir forest in front of her, but after seeing it, she would give priority to the pros and cons for Xu Xi. Whether it is beautiful or not is not important at all. The robot servant doesn't care about those. "Master, do you want to have a fir wood barbecue?" The robot servant asked seriously. "Forget about that kind of thing", Xu Xi sighed, stretched out his palm, and rubbed Ai Lei's little head. His robot servant is very loyal. But is it too loyal?
