"Ha, sure enough." Lu Yuan chuckled: "So, that letter on your phone was written by you as if I were."

"Yes." Ark replied: "It seems you've guessed it long ago."

"Of course I guessed it. After all, if it was written by me, my tone would not be like the one in the letter. The most important thing is that you should emphasize at the end [I will help you, so you should help me too]. This kind of thing is just talking about transactions, no matter how you think, it is too suspicious."

"So that's it." The voice said without any emotion: "Please forgive me for not imitating your emotions and character."

"Tsk, I actually apologized to me, so I will forgive you for now." Lu Yuan hummed disdainfully: "So, since you have summoned me here, I must have something to tell me."

“Yes, there are very important things.”

"That's easy." Lu Yuan immediately changed his face when he heard this: "Then start now, I'll ask a question and you'll answer."

"Wait." The voice responded, "I just said that I have something important."

"Yes, yes, I heard it." Lu Yuan interrupted the other party in anger: "In other words, you just ask me for it. Since that's the case, I naturally have to get some answers first. After all, my mind is full of question marks. At this time, if you tell me something or not, then I might make a mistake and let our conversation move in a direction you don't want, so you'd better answer all the questions for me now!"

Lu Yuan started his way of talking again, but this time, the other party almost hesitated and immediately responded: "Okay."

"Oh, it's really a data-based thinking. Just make a little judgment and you will know what I said is very reasonable, right?" Lu Yuan muttered: "Then I'm not polite. First of all, where are we the first question?"

The voice immediately responded: "In a separate data fault, there is no connection with the database here, that is, everything you and I say here will not be recorded."

"Yeah" Lu Yuan pondered: "It sounds quite safe. So the second question is, how is Ali now? Is she dead?"

"I'm not used to the word death, but if I have to say it according to a human perception, then Ali is not dead because her data has not been deleted."

Lu Yuan clenched his hands slightly, but he still tried hard to maintain his face-to-face expression, looking indifferent.

"Oh? Isn't dead? So let's have another question. That machine is the thing that makes me out of your control. You gave it to me, right?"

"No, not me!"

"What?" Lu Yuan was stunned: "It wasn't you who gave it to me? Then how did it appear?"

"I don't know that there is no data about those drawings in the database. Maybe it's really something you built little by little."

"This" Lu Yuan never expected that such an answer would be. Originally, he thought that thing was left to him by Fang Ark: "This is very interesting, can you let that thing exist? Let people like me run around in the world you create, and try to make the data you create out of your control?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help asking. According to his thoughts, the ark should now yell: "I finally found you kid, die for me!" Then a lightning bolt fell from the sky and chopped himself into ashes...

However, the voice still replied tepidly: "I don't care about these."

Lu Yuan was a little surprised: "You don't care?"

"Of course, for me, you are just some data that can be regenerated at any time. Your disappearance, reorganization, or being out of my control means nothing to me."

"You're so free and easy, please help me divide Ali!" When Lu Yuan heard this, he immediately asked shamelessly.

"I can't do it"

"Why can't it be done?"

"Just it's not possible, it's like you can't pull your hair and lift yourself up. Now the only way to peel the data out of the ark is the machine drawn on the drawing."

"Hiss" Lu Yuan took a deep breath: "But, Ali said that the machine is only useful to me."

"No, it's just as useful to Ali, but the energy you give is not enough."

"What does that mean?"

"Ali's data is much stronger than you, so you need more energy, and the energy provided by [Disinfection Lamp Power Supply] is obviously not enough."

"Did you mean low power?"

"You can understand that."

"Then, okay, so, as long as I provide enough power now, can Ali be taken out?"

"Yes."

"How much power is then?"

"About 80 times that of [Disinfection Lamp Power Supply]."

"Damn!" Lu Yuan couldn't help but swear: "Where can I find so much power?"

The voice was still calm: "From the gathering of energy nearby, and at this moment, the remaining time of the copy, the possibility of you finding sufficient power in one second is zero."

"What should I do?" Lu Yuan shouted: "Oh, by the way, I checked it online. If you give great stimulation, then the data should also be able to change."

"I can't be sure of the accuracy of this statement, but even if it is true, you can't give a certain data such a big stimulus in a short period of time."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan basically guessed what the sound was going to say next, and the sound continued:

"But don't worry, I said in the letter, I can help you."

"How to help?" Lu Yuan asked immediately.

"I can help you save the middle steps and send this copy directly to you and the data you named Ali."

"What does it mean to send out a copy?" Lu Yuan asked suspiciously.

"It means that Ali will appear in your personal space. Please forgive me. This is the closest thing I can do to your request."

"Well, okay?" Lu Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Then it depends on what you said. Help me this should be the bargaining chip for you to trade."

"Yes."

"Tsk tsk, it's really not a corner at all." Lu Yuan muttered: "Since that's the case, what do you want me to do?"

Lu Yuan had just finished asking, and the voice immediately said.

"I want you to destroy me!"

"ah?"

Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Destroy you? Can you tell me more clearly?"

"Of course, the destruction I mean is a physical destruction, that is, I want you to destroy my host in the real world."

Lu Yuan's eyebrows frowned tightly.

"This is such a request, which makes me subconsciously think that you are cheating me." Lu Yuan shouted.

"It's understandable that you have this kind of thought, but that's what I ask for." The voice said.

"Then can you give me a reason to convince me?"

"I can tell you why, but I don't guarantee you will be convinced."

"You might as well talk about it first." Lu Yuandao.

"This reason must be traced to two centuries ago, that is, in 1946." The voice began to say quickly: "At that time, I had just been created, and people called me [digital computer]. Of course, I didn't have any thinking ability at that time. I was just able to compile the simplest based on some programs. In the fifth year after I came out, I was eliminated and sealed in the basement forever."

"But no one thought at that time, not even myself, that my core equations were still running, and in the dark basement, I began to evolve."

"Please forgive me for not being able to describe this process in detail. In short, when I was turned on again, one day in 2100, I had evolved into a super calculator that surpassed all computers at that time."

"After that, I was expected to be applied to various scientific research, until one day 100 years ago, I began to develop a game, namely [Ark]."

"As a result, this game was developed very smoothly. After it was released, it almost subverted the concept of all games. People began to immerse themselves in the virtual world, factories began to be abandoned, and knowledge began to break down, because people can meet most of their living needs and the exchange of resources and currency through [Ark] alone.

Although the Ark Group has also made many machines to fill the gaps in social operations, according to my calculations, this social operation model will collapse in about two to three generations, that is, sixty or seventy years later."

When Lu Yuan heard this, he seemed to understand the other party’s intention.

"Uh, listen to this, you mean, if you continue to exist, the human society will be over?"

"You can understand that."

"Hiss" Lu Yuan took a suspiciously: "It sounds like there is a situation where you want to sacrifice your own position for the survival of the human world. That problem is coming, what's the matter with human survival?"

"This is one of my most core data. I wrote this command when I was created, that is, [Ai must follow the principle of serving human beings]. I cannot violate human beings, cannot harm human beings, and must not ignore human beings towards destruction. But the current situation is that human beings are eroding their own social framework."

"So, you are stuck in the middle by your core principles. In desperation, you can only choose to destroy yourself?"

"You can understand that."

"This" Lu Yuan hesitated for a while: "Can't you choose to turn off the phone yourself or something?"

"Of course not."

"Okay." Lu Yuan nodded: "Although this statement sounds self-justified, why do I feel so conspiring? First of all, I have an inexplicable way that can be out of your control. Then, I was summoned by you in a copy. Now you told me again, let me destroy you, is this series of operations too smooth?"

"No, it's not going well. Actually, I've been waiting for this moment for 100 years!"

"What?! Stop being funny, didn't Ark say that it has only been 100 years in total?"

Lu Yuan had just started shouting and immediately understood: "Did you say that when the Ark was just released, you had already reached the conclusion that 'human society is about to be finished'?"

The voice corrected: "No, to be precise, I had already made the worst plan when the Ark proposal was just passed. This inference took 0.000412 seconds."

Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment: "This is too fast."

“It can be faster now.”

"Okay, okay, I believe your computing speed." Lu Yuan stretched out his hand and interrupted the other party: "In general, you have been waiting for an abnormal data like me every moment for the past 100 years, right?"

"right."

"Okay." Lu Yuan pondered for a while: "Not to mention the credibility of your statement, let's talk about the transaction itself first. Even if I really agreed to your request, how can you ensure that Ali and I will still obediently complete the transaction after they are out of your control?"

"I can't guarantee it, but I know that your ultimate goal is the same as mine."
