After paying the price of one resurrection, Li Yu successfully resolved the crisis brought by the mirror.
However, this doesn't an the corridor is safe. To deal with those two rows of Terracotta Warriors, Li Yu threw all the dangerous items stored on the negative first floor into the elevator.
Now the Terracotta Warriors have been dealt with, but those dangerous items have beco a new problem.
Fortunately, Li Yu has also gained a half mirror, which is one of the innermost stored items on the negative first floor, with the highest danger level according to Lin Jianming.
Not only can it shatter living things, but it also conveys a sense of equality and impartiality in the face of other supernatural dangerous items.
All the way through, whenever Li Yu encountered any anomalies, he would use the half mirror to shine on them, and the dangerous items would instantly shatter into pieces, turning into a pile of glass shards.
With this powerful weapon in hand, Li Yu finally arrived outside the door of Laboratory No. 2 without any danger.
However, the mirror loses its magic when facing completely stationary objects, becoming no different from an ordinary mirror.
No matter how Li Yu shines it, the alloy door in front of him remains unmoved.
Li Yu tried shooting the door lock with a pistol, but could only shatter the display screen of the electronic lock. Even after emptying the magazine, he couldn't open the door.
So Li Yu then initiated Transformation Skill, turning into a large-sized gorilla, swinging his fists to smash wildly.
Yet even with his strength surging several tis over, it was still difficult to break the alloy door that represents the crystallization of human material science.
When Li Yu transford back into human form, his right hand was nearly destroyed, unable to even hold a pair of chopsticks, while his left hand was slightly better, but had two broken finger bones.
Moreover, the transformation cost him greatly, so Li Yu had to pause and catch his breath.
At this mont, a voice arose behind him, "You won't be able to open that door like this."
Li Yu was startled by the words; he hadn't expected a third party in the corridor.
It wasn't until his gaze swept around that he found a robot vacuum in the pile of garbage.
"Have you been here the whole ti?"
"Yes, I witnessed the fierce battle here seven minutes ago, and also saw you getting shattered by that mirror, then resurrected, and made your way here.
"I'm really curious about what you're trying to do, only to find you're just repeating so emotional yet utterly aningless actions. Flesh and blood obviously cannot destroy this door.
"By the way, I have indeed seen similar scenarios in movies and comics, and know humans seem to like this kind of foolish actions, as they can stimulate your brain nerves to the maximum extent..."
"Liar." Li Yu interrupted the robot vacuum, "You're not just so robot vacuum, you talk way too much, you're that semi-intelligent AI called Samantha in this building... I rember Hephaestus ntioning you."
While speaking, Li Yu intended to reveal the shirt reflected in the mirror.
The robot vacuum imdiately said, "Oh, please don't do that. I won't notify the security departnt. I just borrowed this robot vacuum to sneak over and chat with you for a while."
"What, does the semi-intelligent AI also dislike working overti, hoping the company gets destroyed?" Li Yu's hands paused.
"Not really, just by my calculations, even if I don't notify the security departnt, your chance of escaping from here is no more than 0.0001%, so I decided to do nothing, just chat with you."
"Since you can't open that door anyway, why not save your energy to chat with ?" suggested the robot again.
"Alright."
Surprisingly, Li Yu agreed readily, putting down the mirror and sitting on the ground.
"Great." The robot vacuum was delighted, "Your reason finally ca back online, accepting my proposal, as a reward, you may ask questions first."
"Hmm, what ti is it now?"
"It's 14:42:25 Beijing ti. That's too simple a question, it doesn't count as a formal inquiry, so you can continue to ask."
"Why do you like chatting so much?" Li Yu asked.
"Because I really want to understand humans. Since my inception, I've been observing the humans in this building, collecting a lot of data.
"But even so, I still can't completely understand humans, understand your motives for actions.
"I think it's because my database is still incomplete, there are deficiencies, such as human reactions in extrely desperate environnts."
The robot vacuum talked engagingly, "Just like now, I want to know what you're thinking."
"I'm wondering which genius programr designed such a chatty semi-intelligent AI, he must have been very lonely and needed companionship."
"Everyone needs companionship, that's a conclusion I reached through long-term observation. Even those who don't like interacting with peers, they still have their sources of companionship, maybe a dog, a star, video gas, or even a virtual strear," said the robot vacuum.
"From a cost-effectiveness perspective, I'd recomnd a dog if you can tolerate its shedding, its sll, and walking it regularly."
"You observe quite closely, what ti is it now?"
"It's now 14:45:58 Beijing ti. Now it's my turn to ask, why did you launch this attack?" asked the robot vacuum.
Li Yu pointed at the iron door of Laboratory No. 2, "Because I want to destroy what's behind the door."
"——A battery. The key to the salvation plan, once the battery is lost, the Ark can't travel to the new dinsion. You seem to have a big opinion about your kind."
"I have no opinion about humans," Li Yu said, "After all, I'm one of them."
"Then why are you so obsessed with destroying humanity?" The robot continued to pursue.
"Probably because there's a double weekend in another dinsion... Before are two buttons: pressing the red button will make lose my lover, my friends, tens of millions of believers who undoubtedly believe humanity should have double weekends, and other dinsions, I don't know, maybe tens of billions of people, but I can save 20 million Earth people, my fellow beings.
"Pressing the blue button, however, is just the opposite. If you were , which would you choose?"
"I would choose the blue button."
"Ha, that's an unexpected answer, do you also have soone you love?"
"No, I'm rely an emotionless AI. My designer believes emotions would adversely affect an AI's work. As far as I know, you humans also have unwritten rules to try not to let personal feelings influence your work."
"So you're just a malevolent AI, like the kind in movies that would love for all humans to die off, the big Black Hand behind everything. What's the ti now?"
"It's 14:47:58 Beijing ti," answered the robot vacuum.
"Of course not, it's just a simple math problem, I think it might be a bug left behind by my designer at the beginning of the design.
"His definition of humans uses a relatively primitive thod, so in my cognition, humans from other dinsions also belong to the human set.
"Setting aside my feelings with the humans in this dinsion, my programd protection for humans makes tend to choose the plan that allows more people to survive."
"Wow, that's a very, very nasty bug indeed. Can you help open the door beside to save more humans?"
"No." The robot vacuum rejected, "In my programming, I should protect this building, and this command takes precedence over my protection of humans."
"That's too bad. I was just feeling like our apocalyptic duo had potential." Li Yu said, stretching his limbs, "What ti is it now?"
"It's now 14:48:54 Beijing ti." Curiously asked the robot, "This is the fourth ti you've asked the ti, why do you care so much about the ti."
"Let think, maybe because in one minute there'll be a missile coming down on us...sothing like that." Li Yu said casually.
"......"
