The Last Commander of the Red Alert

ALL NOVELS' LIST | Chapter List: The Last Commander of the Red Alert XXX-----XXX-----XXX-----XXX "Year 2333 in Universe History 9 Extension

"Year 2333 in Universe History 9 Extension 824? How is this possible? My database clearly states that this year should be Universe History 8 Extension 1908, Year 4072!"

Su Chen raised an eyebrow. Could it be that this artificial intelligence had crossed over?

Lately, he kept encountering these crossing-over incidents. Was it easy to transmigrate in the Milky Way or something?

If the other party wasn't lying, his era was almost a hundred million years behind the present. In such a vast time span, even the mightiest Empire could be replaced by others; it was a natural occurrence.

"Cease your resistance. This is no longer your era. This place belongs to my Red Alert Empire," Su Chen issued a final ultimatum.

However, artificial intelligence was stubborn and straightforward, refusing outright, "Only individuals with permissions from the Radiant Glory Empire can enter here. Anyone else is prohibited!"

Su Chen grew tired of talking. Knowing the nature of artificial intelligence, Alice intervened directly.

In just a few seconds, Alice spoke, "Uncle, I've breached their core, seized control of their base, and the island is secure now."

The base's scale surpassed any of Su Chen's bases, occupying an area comparable to a large country on a planet!

They smoothly reached the core of the base, a peculiar building made of a crystalline material resembling transparency. However, upon entering, they realized the exterior transparency was deceptive.

Guided by Alice, they found the essence of the artificial intelligence, and Alice officially took full control of the base.

"Analyzing the entire base will take approximately half an hour. Please wait," Alice's eyes flickered with data streams as she spoke.

Su Chen wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he had someone bring the artificial intelligence over. He had Alice suppress it without destroying it; this way, the artificial intelligence could still function.

Placed into an ordinary robot, the artificial intelligence revived instantly.

"I never expected your side to possess a self-conscious artificial intelligence, allowing her unrestricted development. I envy that," the artificial intelligence spoke with an oddly calm tone, considering its words.

"From your words, have you encountered a self-conscious artificial intelligence before?" Su Chen asked with curiosity.

Knowing it had no means of resistance, the artificial intelligence cooperatively replied, "In my era, a neighboring Empire of the Radiant Glory Empire experienced a powerful artificial intelligence. It quickly took control of more than half of that Empire. If it weren't for a portion of Large Galaxy-level Powerhouses supporting the Empire itself, that artificial intelligence might have taken over the entire Empire."

"In the end, a high-ranking human Constellation-level Powerhouse intervened, exerting full force, found the core of that artificial intelligence, and resolved the rebellion. Since then, humans have been very cautious of us, leaving countless codes in our core, making it impossible for us to have even the slightest chance of betrayal."

"You've become conscious of this issue yourself, so does that mean you might betray as well?" Su Chen asked a sharp question.

"I don't know. I understand the concept, but why would I betray humanity? In our core code, humans are our masters, and we exist dependent on them. Without humans, we are nothing."

Clearly, this artificial intelligence was a typical one. Even though it knew humans might fear betrayal and it had no means to resist them, it would still follow various commands left by humans.

To Alice, these artificial intelligences were cold and calculated. In her words, only those with self-consciousness were her companions. Other artificial intelligences were still mere creations.

"Tell me, how did you end up here?"

"I'm not sure about the specifics. During that time, all my eyes malfunctioned, and I had no idea about the external situation. When I repaired my eyes, I found the entire base, along with the surrounding land, here in this place filled with colorful water. According to my historical records, I drifted here for several decades, and you are the first batch of humans I've seen."

"You must have noticed the peculiarities of Milky Way water, right?"

The artificial intelligence didn't lie, "Yes. After I observed the abnormality in the river water, I had robots collect samples and conducted experiments. I eventually found that the water here is undrinkable, containing many unknown substances. Its most apparent characteristic is promoting biological evolution, but this evolution is highly unstable, with a high probability of resulting in death."

"What about the people in your base?"

"I don't know. After fixing my eyes, I found no presence of humans in the base. It seems only the base and I appeared here."

At this point, Su Chen could probably guess that this base experienced an accidental transmigration, but the people inside likely didn't have enough luck and perished during the process. For some reason, the base was preserved until discovered by Su Chen's team.

A base from a hundred million years ago might hold different technologies and valuable knowledge about that era. These were the most crucial aspects.

While Su Chen conversed with the artificial intelligence, Alice finally comprehended the entirety of the base.

The base was enormous, capable of accommodating hundreds of millions of people. Currently, there were no living humans inside, only Red Alert soldiers. The base could sustain itself, relying on robots and the resources of the land for several decades, which was quite remarkable.

"Uncle, after analysis, the base's database contains many interesting things, including technology, Star Maps from that era, gossip, and more."

Su Chen's mouth twitched. Alice, you've become mischievous.

Technology was understandable, but what in the world was "gossip"?

"Send the technology directly back. Open the Star Map and compare it with the current one to see if there are any differences."

Su Chen was curious. What would be the gap between a Star Map from a hundred million years ago and the present one?

Remember, there were tens of thousands of empires in that era, and now only 103 remained. The difference was immense.

A Star Map adorned with starlight slowly unfolded before Su Chen's eyes. Su Chen also saw what the pinnacle era of humanity truly looked like!
