Chapter 1179: Chapter 803: Cyber Crisis?_2 Chapter 1179: Chapter 803: Cyber Crisis?_2 Not only that, in the course of the investigation, D also found that although they were all mad, the Cybernetic Madn in each place behaved differently.
In so cities, D could only see those Cybernetic Madn killing each other, the whole city was like a Free-for-all Arena. Everyone was killing each other with weapons, and the ground was littered with corpses and the ruins of destruction. In other cities, the Cybernetic Madn were more like monkeys, issuing “ah ah oo oo” screams and swinging between skyscrapers on electrical wires, while another group of Cybernetic Madn below, resembling carnivorous animals, moved on all fours and roared at the “Tarzan” above—it was just like a scene from the animal kingdom.
Lumiaire did not know how to explain this, he could only say that there might have been so problems in the process of the roaming AIs fusing with human spirits, which activated the primal instincts of humans… Well, after all, the soul and psychological world of humans are still uncomprehensible enigmas even three hundred years later, who knows why it turned out this way, but at least it was an answer.
But for so of the cities that followed—there was no explanation.
Like this one, for instance.
“Holy crap…”
Standing on the rooftop of a skyscraper and looking down at the streets below, D was speechless. This city was a city in the Free State, and they had co here because Lumiaire sensed an electromagnetic signal, to see if they could find any survivors. However, the scene in this city still startled D.
Actually, the reason was very simple, because the streets of this city were full of people.
Well, that wasn’t strange, but the problem was, these people were neither playing a battle royale nor playing out an animal kingdom…
No, they were playing out the animal kingdom, weren’t they?
D silently withdrew his gaze, and everywhere he looked, people were gathering together, naked, n embracing won, won embracing n, n embracing n, won embracing won. A cacophony of indecent screams erupted everywhere, and, um… if this were the animal kingdom, the narrator’s voice-over at this mont would probably say, “Spring has arrived, all things co back to life, it is the season for the animals to reproduce…”
“How are you going to explain this, Lumiaire?”
[…Can I choose not to explain, Great Judge?]
Despair also filled Lumiaire’s voice.
Cybernetic Madn killing people and starting fires, that could be understood as madness, but how was this to be understood?!
“Honestly, this really isn’t worth watching…”
Withdrawing his gaze, D waved his hand dismissively. Although such scenes were not absent in adult films, at least those involved humans. But these—whether they could still be considered humans was actually hard to say.
Yes, D had always been indifferent to the cybernetic aesthetics of this world—like those won working in places like Cloud Summit, and those idols, they had all replaced their entire bodies with various kinds of prosthetics. D had even seen a singer who had turned her whole body into a glittering prosthetic body, and honestly, in D’s view, that was already not human at all.
With their appearance completely like robots, how could they even be considered idols?
If you were in Duanmu Huai’s world, would you choose to watch beautiful won sing and dance, or a full-bodied tal robot made of copper singing and dancing?
This kind of cybernetic aesthetics was really unacceptable.
So likewise, when you saw a group of people with their arms, legs, and even bodies and heads covered with iron, completely unrecognizable as humans, it felt more like a group of robots gone out of control.
“Anyway, where is that electromagnetic signal?”
“Just over there.”
Although D had already given up hope for this city, he spread his wings again and headed in the direction Lumiaire had marked, and then…
“Am I hallucinating? Lumiaire? I think I hear music?”
[I hear it too, Great Judge, right ahead.]
With a turn, D flew forward again, and as he got closer, the music beca clearer. Then, another scene that D couldn’t have imagined appeared before his eyes.
Just ahead, not far away, was a giant outdoor concert venue, filled to capacity, one could even see the audience waving glow sticks in the air, and in the center of the venue, a young girl was holding a microphone, singing and hopping about.
Hmm, it looked just like an ordinary concert.
But the problem was, in this world, that was not normal at all.
“What on earth is going on?”
D floated in the air, looking around, only to see the entire city divided into two by a river nearby, presenting two different colors—on the east side of the river, people had nearly turned into primitive beasts, recklessly unleashing their desires, shouting, and roaring.
anwhile, on the west side of the river, the city’s inhabitants were like fervent fans, waving their glow sticks, cheering and screaming loudly for the singing and dancing girl. They seed to completely ignore everything around them, and D even saw soone, perhaps from sheer exhaustion, stagger into a nearby barrel, then violently crash into an oil drum, after which their glow stick fell, hit the gasoline, and sparked a fire, and the flas suddenly engulfed the adjacent gas tank.
If they were ordinary people, they would have scread and fled by now, but those people were as if entranced by the concert, desperately waving their glow sticks, unconcerned about the flas just inches away.
But the next mont, an explosion sounded.
The massive blast wave completely shredded the nearby ardent fans, tearing them into pieces. The fire continued to advance, spreading around, and engulfing all the people nearby.
Yet, even so, those people were still cheering, clapping hard, screaming, completely indifferent to the flas burning their bodies.
Well, both sides were chaotic, looking equally abnormal.
Anyway, the singer over there seed a bit more normal…
D frowned slightly, then flew toward the concert venue not far off. At least for the mont, it seed like those people were all controlled by that girl, indicating she must be so key figure.
With that thought, D arrived above the concert venue and then gracefully descended.
“Oh?”
Seeing the D in front of them, the idol girl on stage, who was singing and dancing, was quite surprised, curiously watching her.
“You weren’t attracted by my singing, interesting. Who are you?”
“That’s my question, who are you? What are you doing here?”
D stared at the girl, looking at her closely. Compared to others, this girl seed to have no visible difference from humans, and of course, she was not that old, perhaps because of that, her cybernetic enhancents were not very extensive.
But from the situation at hand, it was clear that this girl was no ordinary person—no ordinary person could control so many cybernetic madn.
“Ho ho ho, interesting.”
Hearing D’s question, the girl didn’t answer imdiately but narrowed her eyes, sizing D up and down.
“You don’t seem to be human either, so what exactly are you? My database has no records of a similar existence—are you an Angel? Is it an Angel? But the existence of Angels has not been confird…”
“Are you a rogue AI from the old net?”
Hearing the girl’s words, D’s expression grew more serious, while the girl rely smiled slightly.
“I am no rogue AI, my na is Lixiana. We shall replace humans, rule this world! Let the world tremble and then destroy under my singing! Material existence will be terminated, and the Soul Matrix will beco the beginning of a new world!”
“Interesting.”
Hearing the girl’s response, D silently took out the War Hamr.
Although she didn’t know what this was all about, clearly… she had caught prey!
