Chapter 319 Mechanical Life's Counterattack

　　…

　　N2 was born in the mechanical life network, and Adam and Eve were also born in the mechanical life network.

　　But there are still big differences between them. For example, although both are twin models, N2 was born as a collective consciousness after the mechanical life network absorbed the servers left behind by humans. They have independent intelligence and can freely travel between the Internet and reality, but they have no bodies. Perhaps they are equivalent to the administrators of the mechanical life network and cannot escape virtual control.

　　Adam and Eve are different. Although their consciousness is also derived from the mechanical life network, they have bodies. Their appearance is also fueled by N2. Even N2, who believes that protecting androids is protecting mechanical life, wants to get rid of the underlying logic left by the Creator as soon as possible and allow mechanical life to be completely free.

　　Thus, more intelligent Adam and Eve were born. They not only possessed the ability to think independently, but also had curiosity about everything, which was something that almost all mechanical life forms did not have. They were the counterparts of human beings, so after absorbing some knowledge about humans from the mechanical life network, they immediately felt ashamed, just like the mythical Adam and Eve who ate the forbidden fruit.

　　But like N2 said, their future is unpredictable. They are too outstanding and too independent. To them, they can't imagine how Adam and Eve will develop. Maybe they will turn against them and continue the cycle of mechanical life. Or maybe they will jump out of the underlying logic and create a new era. But in general, they are changing.

　　However, they did not know that after absorbing enough human knowledge, the two brothers Adam and Eve did not have a strong sense of identity with themselves as mechanical life forms. Instead, they wanted to become creative beings like humans.

　　If N2 had not focused their main attention on Shen Ye, whose identity was exposed, and if they had paid more attention to Adam and Eve, they would have discovered that they did not actually use their full strength when they finally attacked Shen Ye. Otherwise, with their strength at the time, even if they could only tie with Shen Ye and his men, they could actually defeat Shen Ye and his men with the help of tens of thousands of mechanical lives and fifteen Engels.

　　Moreover, they had many opportunities in the underground space where the alien remains were stored, but they deliberately gave up all of them. The N2 sisters knew this, but they did not take it seriously at the time because Shen Ye's human identity had not been exposed yet.

　　But it was useless to regret the choice now, and the machine lifeforms did not have such an emotion. After a short silence, N2, who had spoken earlier, said: "It is still a little difficult to defeat the androids now. We missed the best opportunity. If the monsters recorded in the human era had not suddenly appeared in that place and attacked the server there, we would still have an absolute advantage. Now the androids have transferred their data, and the database with the backdoor is no longer used. Even if we are still superior in numbers, it is hard to predict the outcome if a real fight breaks out."

　　The other N2 nodded, agreeing with her. She then looked at Adam and Eve below the throne and said, "We will give you the highest authority except for us. Now, all the mechanical life on the planet will obey your orders. Since you are named after Adam and Eve, use your own power to create a world that belongs only to you."

　　When listening to N2's words, Adam and Eve had already bent down slightly. However, sister N2 did not notice that when they heard the words asking them to create their own world, their eyes flickered.

　　…

　　Although N2 issued a counterattack order, the mechanical lifeforms' actions were slower than expected. Moreover, most of the mechanical lifeforms were scattered in various regions around the world, forming tribes one after another. It would take a long time to gather them together.

　　Fortunately, most mechanical life forms have an instinctive hostility towards androids, and no matter how slow they move, at least they are moving. In order to allow mechanical life forms to generate self-awareness on a large scale, as an aggregate of the mechanical life network, N2 once deliberately interrupted the network connection with mechanical life forms. Although the final effect was not great, many mechanical life forms also generated autonomous awareness, and some of these mechanical life forms that generated autonomous awareness hoped for peace.

　　These peace-loving mechanical lives became the first resistance to the mechanical lives' counterattack, and even caused a civil war among the mechanical lives in some areas. After all, the mechanical lives had almost no sense of identity with their own kind, and killing their own kind did not bring any psychological pressure to them.

　　This scene happened all over the world, and a large amount of information was also transferred to Hope City through the orbital base.

　　"The mechanical life forms are in a civil war. This is good news." Inside the headquarters, Shen Ye said after reading the information projected by the master control system.

　　"It should be the mechanical life forms that have developed self-awareness that are rebelling, just like those in Pascal Village." Anemone was also in the conference room. As a former leader of the resistance, she was very helpful in directing the battle.

　　White said: "But it seems useless. There are too few self-aware mechanical life forms. They are no match for unconscious mechanical life forms. They will soon perish."

　　"So, should we help them?" asked a senior android leader.

　　"We can provide appropriate amounts of help, such as providing them with weapons, but it is best not to get involved in the fight between them. What we need to do is expand our own strength first and have enough troops before they perish." Shen Ye thought about sending people to help them, but thought that most of the artificial humans might be disgusted and suspicious of this, so he simply gave up.

　　Moreover, if we send people to intervene, even if the number of artificial humans has increased, there will not be too many manpower to spare. Now with the expansion of territory and the increasing operation of factories, manpower is even more scarce. It is better to take advantage of their civil war and increase the number of troops with all our strength.
