Last Totem Novel - Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Network
Iron Slag watched as the red comet’s screen slowly dimmed. Alice was probably already in a standby state. Iron Cinder turned around and said to Old Niu, who was squatting in the corner, “Looks like I’m going to run to the Autonomous Council.”

The old bull stood up and pointed at the red comet. ‘Alice just said that she wanted to install an autopilot system. I don’t have enough parts here. You should drop by the parts market when you go to Tieshan Town.’

As soon as Old Niu finished speaking, the Water Narcissus Doctor, who had been standing behind Tie Zha, came up to him and said, “I still have a lot of extra electronic equipment in my clinic that can be used to convert into an autopilot system. However …” At this point, the Water Narcissus Doctor looked at the red comet with a hesitant expression.

Tie Zha walked out of the tin shed knowingly. Divine Doctor Shui also followed him and whispered to him, “This is an artificial intelligence system. We talked to her all night and found that she is very smart. It can even be said that she has a certain IQ and EQ. I’m worried that the installation of an automatic system will have unforeseen consequences.”

“What consequences?” Iron slag asked.

“If you install an autopilot, Alice can move freely. At that time, she can go wherever she wants. She may not be under control.” Divine Doctor Shui said worriedly.

The iron slag thought for a while and said, “Pretend. Anyway, it was picked up. It’s fine if you lose it. If there’s a problem, it’s better to find it earlier.”

The Water Immortal Doctor heard Tie Zha’s words and felt that it made sense, so he proposed to go back to the clinic to get some equipment. Hence, Iron Cinder went into the house and drove out the red comet, preparing to take the Water Immortal Doctor to Tieshan Town.

Before leaving, Tie Zha arranged for Ye Xinling to stay in the repair shop to prepare dinner. However, Ye Xinling was a little reluctant and said, “Master, I also want to go.”

Tie Zha thought that if Lena saw her, she probably wouldn’t have any good looks on her face, so she directly refused. Afterwards, he tightened the throttle and drove towards Tieshan Town with the Water Immortal Doctor.

Ten minutes later …

Tie Zha arrived at Tieshan Town, put down Divine Doctor Shui at the clinic, and then went to the Autonomous Council. Then, he got off the car at the entrance of the Autonomous Council, put the whole motorcycle on his shoulder, and strode into the hall. Under the gaze of the clerk on the first floor, Tie Zha carried the motorcycle to the second floor and arrived at Lena’s office.

At this moment, Lena was leaning against the sofa and taking a nap. Seeing Tie Shan carrying the motorcycle into her office, she frowned and asked in a long voice, “Little Tie Shan, what do you think this Tie Shan Town’s autonomy will be like?” Iron Slag put down the locomotive and explained why he had come. Lena asked him reluctantly, “Do you think this place is your harem? Is that so?”

Faced with this question that would offend Lena no matter how he answered, Tie Zha chose to remain silent. If he answered “yes”, Lena would say “no principle”, “trample on the status of women”, “natural seed” and so on; But if he answered “no”, the consequences would be even worse.

Seeing the iron slag remain silent, Lena said, “Angry ~” while wrapping her ears around his temples. Lena pulled and pulled for a long time, until Iron Slag was a little unhappy, and then she let him connect to the Internet.

Tie Zha pulled out the fiber optic cable from his desk computer and plugged it into the red comet’s on-board computer. This fiber came from Silver City No. 13. It was the only port in Tieshan Town that could connect to the world network. It was mainly used for the management of Tieshan Town’s Autonomous Council.

A few minutes after the red comet connected to the Internet, all the office computers on the first floor of the hall lost their Internet connection. All of a sudden, the administrative organs of the Autonomous Society were paralyzed. The electrician who heard the news checked for a long time and found that the problem was the computer in Big Sister’s office. That computer occupied almost all of the bandwidth, and massive amounts of data were frantically pouring into the Autonomous Council. At first, he thought that Big Sister’s computer was infected, but when he called to ask for instructions, he got Big Sister’s latest instruction: “One day off!”

After receiving the order for the holidays, a burst of cheerful voices erupted from the hall. Then the clerks rushed out of the council to enjoy the rare holiday.

At the same time, in Lena’s office, the red comet was crazily downloading the latest information from all over the world …

Lena looked at the flickering flood of data on the motorcycle screen and was just about to ask what was going on with Tie Zha when a female mechanical synthesis sound suddenly sounded from the red comet.

[Friend, the computer on the airframe is too backward to meet the needs of data analysis.]

[Please authorize Alice to control thirty-five computers in the local area network and set up temporary chip arrays to speed up data analysis]

“Agreed to authorize.” Iron slag said.

[Authorized, firewall decryption begins …]

[Firewall password is 32-bit ASC Ⅱ code, estimated decryption time is 367 hours]

[Decryption too slow, friend. Assist in searching for firewall passwords if circumstances permit]

As soon as the mechanical synthesis finished, Lena gave out a set of numbers.

[Enter password … login successful, start building temporary chip array …]

Dozens of seconds later …

[Temporary Chip Array complete, 2% data collection complete, airframe database revision expected 27 hours 46 minutes 37 seconds]

[Call over, if there is no next command, Alice will be on standby …]

Lena yawned and said to herself, “There are still 27 hours left. What should I do in such a long time?”

“I want to stay here and watch.” Iron slag said.

“And then?” “Nothing, then.” “Don’t you want to do something?” “Huh?”

‘”Do you want” Lena narrowed her eyes and said meaningfully.

“No.”

Lena bit her lips, as if she had suffered a great grievance. “You … you despise your sister …” She lowered her head sadly and twisted her body while tugging at the corner of her clothes. At this moment, Lena was like a little girl who had done something wrong. She looked pitifully at her parents and prayed for their forgiveness. However, this little girl was taller than her parents. When she waved her body in front of her parents, her full chest almost touched their face.

Seeing her pretentious expression, Tie Zha’s blood energy immediately surged. If he retreated any further, he wouldn’t be a man anymore! So he gritted his teeth and said fiercely, “Don’t beg for mercy later!”

“Yo ~ Who’s begging who? I don’t know.” Lena raised her head and said. Her dark jade-like eyes were filled with a mixture of craftiness and contempt, causing Tie Zha’s teeth to itch. Then, she slightly opened her mouth, her pure white teeth gently gritting her plump lips. Right at this moment, the two of them held hands and clasped their fingers together …

(that author say that this essay was adapted from a short story written in high school, many year ago. In the original story, the world outlook wasn’t that big, and Tie Zha wasn’t strong either. He was just an ordinary teenager who grew up in a garbage dump with a group of little friends around him. His wish and that of his little companion was to take a look at Silver City and see the legendary world. In that ignorant era, he always felt that for a simple reason, a simple dream, he could pay any price.

With this in mind, I wrote the Silver City story.

Anyway, it was the teenager who met the girl from the world of his dreams. One promised to send her home, the other promised to take him to the world above.

Then there were difficulties, endless difficulties, endless difficulties. In order to protect the girl in the chaotic times, the teenager’s companions died one after another. Finally, the youth understood how weak his strength was, so he decided to commit suicide. Before he died, he begged the old doctor to sell all the organs on his body, exchange them for a small nuclear furnace, and then transform him into a cyborg.

With tears in his eyes, the old doctor continued to refine him, giving him 100,000 horsepower! When the transformation was completed, the old doctor’s lamp ran out of oil, and he used his last breath to pull the lightning switch, activating the Avenger from hell.

The youth returned with the power to destroy heaven and earth, punishing everything and burning everything! In the end, he brought the young girl along and cut through all the thorns and thorns, killing her way to Silver City.

However, there were too many people blocking them. They were too powerful, and the youth eventually died on the way forward. At the end of the story, the girl holds the teenager’s glass eyes and returns to her homeland …

It was probably such a short story. In retrospect, that era was really simple.

After experiencing the real world, I probably won’t be able to write that kind of pure persistence anymore, and I’m indifferent to a lot of things.

Therefore, the current story was definitely filled with cruelty and truth.

That’s probably it. Because of holding hands, I can only talk about the past and gather some words.
