Chapter 314 Upgrade
Chapter 314 Upgrade
The layout that the brave man from another world had made thousands of years ago was finally verified today.
The awakening of the Star Child, the contact between the observation device and the Beast Progenitor - these were all events that the hero had predicted long ago and had formulated countermeasures for.
[However, since this information has been broadcast, you who see this should be prepared for it - so what I really want to say is something else. ]
After a brief pause, the phantom of the ancient hero suddenly adopted a very serious tone.
This also made Aarons and everyone else nervous.
[The planetary observation machine that is playing this record is a general-purpose field model manufactured by Chenxi. Although its nominal purpose is observation, its other functions are also complete. ]
[Since you can see this message, you must have established a basic contractual relationship with it - so after this message is played, I will officially hand over the authority to customize the function to the person who has established a direct relationship with it. ]
[I don’t care whether you are a good person or a bad person, nor do I care whether the process of establishing a connection with it is legitimate. I will only tell you one thing - next, you can deeply and freely customize its functions according to your wishes. ]
This is indeed a very important matter.
Regardless of its appearance and usual performance, Spider Sakura is ultimately just a machine. Since it is a machine, it naturally has the function of being adjusted and edited.
And her current owner is Aarons - which means that Aarons can even completely rewrite her will according to his own wishes.
[What you like has nothing to do with me. Whether you want to turn it into a ruthless killing weapon or a tool to vent your desires, it is your freedom.]
[Of course, its specifications are limited after all, so it doesn't have the powerful function of destroying a planet. And Chenxi will not spend manpower to recycle this kind of consumable equipment, so you can use it according to your own preferences without worry. ]
[But you'd better remember that no matter what choice you plan to make, you only have one chance. ]
He had been given an opportunity to completely rewrite Spider Sakura's core and strengthen some of her functions to the limit.
But this is actually a test - if she really does this, would it be equivalent to erasing her budding self?
[Well, that's all I have to say... I will try to find a way to take all the alien species on this planet away at once. Although I will definitely miss some, I will at least make sure that most people leave here... Oh, this is really troublesome.]
Although it was just a simple complaint in the end, Aarons could still feel that the man called a hero actually possessed an extremely strong sense of responsibility and a firm will to act.
He must have used some method to take away most of the demons in this world, forcibly putting an end to the unjust demon war.
"Humans want to use the demons to steal the power of the children of the stars, and they also portray themselves as victims... Humph, I still don't like humans at all."
"Teacher Yayin, I am just an ordinary human being."
"Hey, little guy, we know all your secrets."
It seemed that Yalu showed all of her memories to the administrator after reading them... Aarons could only roll his eyes helplessly and pretend that nothing had happened.
But joking aside, after the ancient records were played, everyone's attention was focused on the maid with cherry hair.
How will Aarons adjust Spider Sakura...will he erase her self and turn her into a purely efficient machine?
"Zhu Ying, is the thing mentioned in the record just now true?"
"...Yes, you can now make a complete custom adjustment for me. Increase the efficiency of at least five functions to the maximum."
But Aarons actually already had an idea of what this meant.
So he did not rush to express his thoughts, but thought for a while before slowly walking to Zhuying's side and looking seriously at the maid girl with cherry hair and silver eyes.
"What percentage of your current functional capacity is currently at its limit?"
"It's about 70 percent, and it can't be improved in the current state."
"Well, let me ask you a question."
As if he had seen through the trap, Aarons slowly reached out his hand towards Zhuying, and finally held the other's fingers which felt slightly cold and stiff.
"If I want to adjust your functions, do I need to reset all your systems to their initial state first... and erase the existing data?"
"...That's right."
——That’s the problem.
If she wanted to make the most efficient use of Spider Sakura's functions, she would have to be adjusted from the core - but the prerequisite for doing so was that she must first delete all the data that had accumulated so far and restore it to its original factory state.
And this actually means that he will erase her personality...or soul.
"Then let me ask you, what do you think about this?"
"I will obey my master's orders completely... I am just a machine and I don't have any thoughts."
There would be no thought - but Aarons could feel that her hands seemed to be shaking.
So there is only one thing I should do.
"Okay, then I will give this order with the authority of the new owner - use this adjustment opportunity, but do not adjust any functional properties. Everything will remain as it is."
Aarons' unexpected order surprised everyone present.
Even if he hadn't figured out how to adjust, he shouldn't have wasted this precious opportunity in this way - unless he wanted to protect Zhu Ying's virtual personality that was not worth mentioning at all.
"You have your own will and thoughts, so to me, you are not a machine... Even if you imitate someone I don't want to remember, your soul is definitely not just some data."
Just after Aarons finished saying this, Zhuying's body suddenly stagnated, and then immediately made a lot of strange noises.
"Administrator privileges accepted - data updated, additional functions unlocked... start self-determination of upgrade methods."
[Oh, you actually passed this test... Interesting, I originally planned that if you intend to mess around according to your own desires, I would let it execute the return program directly.]
Just when everyone was at a loss, the hero's phantom suddenly appeared again for some reason. But this time, his tone became teasing and playful.
[This is just a little joke from me, I hope you don't mind. But since you heard these words, it means you have made the right choice. Congratulations... If you have nothing to do in the future, you are welcome to join our company. ]
"Ah, this guy has such a bad personality..."
After realizing that he had been tricked a little by the message left by the brave man, Aarons finally shrugged helplessly.
However, my choice was not wrong.
