Chapter 233 – Ailee Super Evolution?

Ailee is sick.

Sick as hell.

Sick extremely well.

It sounds a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it is.

The origin of the matter is that during a routine scientific research, Ailee assisted the Xu system by observing and recording data on neutron stars, white dwarfs and other stars.

Due to Airey’s excellent performance and meticulous completion of the task.

The Hsu system compliments it.

Thus, the machine-soul pleasures, the extra-large mega-ultra-large pleasures.

It was a peaceful routine of getting along, but the so-called accidents always come suddenly.

Along with the trigger of the words of machine soul pleasure, Ailee actually fell into an inexplicable disorder, and the humanoid body fell to the ground, fortunately, Xu Department noticed that something was wrong, and was able to hold that heavy body in time.

Sparks crashed and parts shuddered.

The starship stalled and the lights flashed.

Not just humanoid moving bodies.

As long as they were manipulated by Ailee, all the machinery involved in AI calculations were synchronized into an error state, like a seriously ill human tissue.

“Lord and Master ……”

The machine’s eyes are dull and the vocalizations are noisy.

Ailee lay in the Xu system’s arms, her arms and legs trembling at an unnatural frequency as she kept trying to stand up.

But every single one of them turned out to be a failure.

“Let me do it, Ailee.”

The loyal machine servant didn’t want to trouble the Xu system, but the Xu system couldn’t sit back and let such an Ailee go unattended.

He spoke in a soothing tone, his hands wrapping around Ailee’s waist and the crooks of her legs in an embracing gesture, sending her all the way to the flat workbench.

Intermittent light, crackling noise.

As the intelligent control AI of the starship cluster, Ailee’s disorganization indirectly affects other equipment, making the scene a mess and making it difficult to start normal work.

It was a good thing that the Xu system had the mechanical power to control these machines as well.

“Ailee, if there’s any discomfort, just say so.”

The Xu system droned on.

Mech power surged through his fingertips, repairing Ailee’s suddenly broken humanoid body.

And in the process, gently asked Ailee if she knew what her problem was.

“Yes, I will do my best to assist you.”

“I’m sorry ……”

“Dropping, self-test program initiating, starship power unit off, auxiliary power unit off, performing logic verification-“

The whitish overhead light shoots out a hazy glow.

When it shines on a humanoid body on a workbench.

Rarely, Ailee looked extremely vulnerable, her silver-blue eyes empty and dull, as if they were a candle flame that could go out at any moment.

The body is difficult to control and enters an eternity of sluggish elongation, unable to control normal functioning.

Dazed, disoriented, confused.

Ai Lei has been conducting self-checks over and over again, trying to find out why she is “sick”, and sincerely feels that she has caused trouble for the Xu Department.

The machine spirit was a little disturbed.

“It’s okay, Ailee, don’t worry about any of that”, Xu’s system’s voice was gentle.

The palm of his hand, wrapped in armored power, covered the top of Ailee’s hull, continuing to repair those cracked wounds.

About Airey’s anomaly.

About this sudden breakdown.

The Hsu system is worried.

He wondered what the truth of the matter was, it was hard to believe that Ailee had been struck by a virus, but where in the vast universe had the attack been sent from.

This concern did not last long.

After a three-day self-inspection, all crises are automatically eliminated.

Ailee’s abnormality was not an attack from the outside world, much less a so-called medical condition.

On the contrary, it’s a downright great thing.

“Mutation? No, we should call it evolution ……”

Inside the Eco-Starship.

Department Xu’s voice echoed through the lab.

He looked at Ailee’s self-check report with a dismayed expression, “The arithmetic power, which was already astonishing, has actually grown once again, and this fluctuation, unbelievable ……”

“Was it the words that caused Ailee’s machine soul to metamorphose further?”

“This is beyond the pale.”

“The repressive power of the Intelligent Devices Apocalypse is primarily in self-replication, with each addition to the production line bringing exponential mobs of soldiers.”

“Its progress, its getting stronger, is through normal technological development.”

“But this kind of machine-soul level evolution of Ailee is beyond common sense and belongs to an unprecedented miracle.”

Energy surged along the pipes, a deep blue glow illuminating inside and out.

Department Xu looked at the self-inspection report.

God sighs.

Everything about Ailee’s anomaly was explained, the overly powerful machine soul after evolution had far more computing power than the original machine, and even the starship fleet was somewhat unable to carry it.

Therefore, the previous “disease” appeared.

The solution is simple, wait until Ailee adapts to the new changes, then build a more advanced computer for her, and it will fall perfectly into place.

Of course.

In the meantime.

All matters pertaining to the starship complex, including scientific research, need to be temporarily suspended.

Only the most basic life-supporting functions are retained.

“Ailee, just rest in the meantime until you’ve recovered.”

“But, but ……”

The cold machine servant lay on the workbench.

Those dull eyes, so obviously empty and lightless, revealed a few moments of bewilderment and uneasiness.

“Serve…I want …… to serve my master…”

The arithmetic power is nearly ready to burst the fragile vocal module.

First, there was a blurry, bared cacophony.

And then there was a gradual, sharp pop.

The Xu system reached out to repair Ailee’s organism with mechanical power once again, gently rubbing the troubled head, “Come back and help me when Ailee is well, okay?”

“…… is.”

Loyal machine servants still wanted to serve the Department of Xu, cooking for Xu, pouring water for Xu, and calculating data for Xu.

But.

Listening to your master is also a must.

Under the Xu system’s soothing touch, the restless machine soul gradually calmed down, lying still on the alloy workbench and gazing calmly at the silver hull ceiling above.

Subsequently, disconnect the data transmission.

……

“You’ve found out the truth about your servant’s illness.”

[It’s a miracle because of you, a new birth the likes of which the universe has never seen.]

“Thanks to you, Ailee’s machine soul is happy for a long time, and in the intersection of machinery and humanity, a new evolution begins.

[Humans have evolved in response to changes in the environment for better survival]

[So, what is the evolution of smart-armed AI going to go into?]

[You look at the downed Aere body and fall into a long reflection, and you have a vague feeling that Aere will go to a whole new path because of this]

[Yes, your soft rice smells better]

[You wait with anticipation for the end of Airey’s evolution in the cold, silent depths of the universe.]

[Until then, you’ll need to live alone for a while and take control of the starship fleet yourself.]

[The servant blames herself for this and worries that her absence has made your life tiring.]

[You smile and reassure the maid that she doesn’t have to worry about you.]

[Time passes, you work on a new light quantum computer while waiting for Ailee to be “cured”]

[The evolution of the Machine Soul is more complicated than you think, three months have passed and Ailee’s state is still unstable, she feels guilty about it]

[Your answer, as always, is that you’ll be waiting for Ailee.]
