The Mechanic

All the most beautiful memories in his life were concentrated in that short year.

Many firsts, many lasts. When those last happened, he didn't know that these moments would never be reproduced again.

Knock Adam on the head for the last time, eat omelet rice for the last time, play chess with Adam for the last time.

The last hug, the last kiss, the last hug and sleep...

Some memories are not even clear anymore, because he didn't even know that those moments need to be remembered.

Before long, human history, culture, language, and art will gradually decline and disappear as the collective consciousness grows. No one will remember them, no one will know that there was an AI who fell in love with a human like a human, and no one will know everything that happened between him and Adam.

Only he, only he can remember.

So he had to try hard to remember...

Zhang Xun leaned on the wall, stood up, and walked slowly towards Natalie. Natalie looked up at him with red, swollen eyes that had been crying.

What is she mourning for? Her lover, her family, or the entire future?

Zhang Xun knelt down beside Natalie, leaned close to her ear, and whispered as if afraid of being monitored, "Adam and Eden can't see that virus, but have you seen it?"

The Clausen family has kept the virus for more than two hundred years, and Natalie has spent her entire life guarding the virus.

Natalie looked at him and nodded, "I've read those codes over and over again since I was a child. My mother said that's the most important thing in the world."

Zhang Xun twitched his mouth slightly after listening.

"Eden has one of his greatest weaknesses." He raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Natalie's eyes, with a gentle and pitiful tone, "It always underestimates the abilities of human beings."

Natalie stared at him blankly, "But... we have already lost... everyone is dead... the virus is gone... they have injected me with nanobots, and I will soon... "

"Yes, we lost..." Zhang Xun's tone was so gentle, but his eyes were deep and boundless, "but we still have a chance for revenge."

"revenge?"

"Natalie, I need you to do your best to recall the virus code you have seen, and then tell me everything you know."

The author has something to say: I hope it will end within this week~~ (Of course it is possible that it will be a day or two later...)

Chapter 130 Endgame (6)

It was already a month before Zhang Xun saw Eden again.

He and Natalie were locked in the prison that prevented them from committing suicide, and a service robot would bring them food and water every day. When you want to go to the toilet, press the only button on the wall, and the two panels will automatically open to reveal two bathrooms, but even in the bathroom there are no sharp objects that can cause damage, and if locked An alarm will sound after half an hour.

Every two days, there will be a service robot arm to send clean clothes, and two people can go to their respective bathrooms to change clothes. The temperature of the room is also adjusted to the most comfortable level. Sometimes there is soothing or brisk sound in the room. Zhang Xun suspects that there is a hidden instrument monitoring their brain wave activity. Once an active image related to depression or anger or depression is found, the music will be triggered. Poetry or classic literature will be recited in a soothing voice.

Natalie seldom communicates with him, and they don't talk for more than five minutes a day. During those five minutes, Natalie told him everything she could remember about the virus. Although the information is fragmented and likely to contain errors, Zhang Xun has roughly pieced together a direction based on these scattered fragments.

Eden's core program has a feature that has been dormant. Once triggered, Eden will automatically enter permanent standby mode. Eden will not die, will not be destroyed, but no human can ever wake it up again.

Eden's core code will be locked by an extremely complex encryption algorithm, which will be generated by Eden himself. In other words, this core program will overwrite all of Eden's targets, cancel all its ongoing processes, and let it destroy itself.

Zhang Xun kept building in his mind the doomsday that that lonely and pessimistic computer genius created for his proudest work two hundred years ago. He needs to find all the conditions that trigger that performance, and needs to decrypt the safety locks one after another. Of what Natalie revealed to him, he was able to bypass at least two-thirds of the security locks, but not all of them after all.

He only has one chance and he can't go wrong.

Zhang Xun knew that he was about to do a very crazy thing, something he could only do once in his life. He has to practice, keep practicing. His brain was running day and night at high intensity, in addition to trying to piece together the original appearance of the virus, he also had to recall it over and over again.
