Due to the changes in the real world caused by the new movie, Lu Jie was granted 50,000 simulation points this time. This made him a little happy.
As various countries began plotting, Lu Jie, however, had grown bored with the game and decided to just hold Rubi (his robot girl) and sleep. Although Rubi was a machine, her touch felt no different from that of a human girl. Holding a humanoid pillow like this significantly improved the quality of his sleep.
The next day, after the system's simulation function had cooled down, Lu Jie planned to begin a new simulation.
"System, enter the simulation world of Skynet's origins."
Lu Jie spoke slowly.
[Host, the request is too vague. Which version should I retrieve?] the system asked.
"No, start from scratch. Use the current next second as the basis and retrieve the Skynet simulation world." Lu Jie narrowed his eyes and said.
He had thought of this before going to sleep yesterday. His previous simulations were all based on the first save point, and the start time of the simulation world was also set from that day. In reality, quite a bit of time had passed, so this could result in some discrepancies. He needed to verify this.
For instance, last time he speculated that Rubi was replaced by an animal—was that really true? In the original timeline of Skynet's creation, Rubi didn't exist at all.
[Understood. The host has spent 5,000 simulation points. You now have 95,000 points remaining.] The system responded and began operating.
In the next moment, Lu Jie felt a shift in his consciousness and found himself in the laboratory of Maybas Norse, the Father of Skynet. However, the scene this time was different from the last, clearly depicting a different phase of events.
This raised a new question for Lu Jie. According to the original timeline, Maybas Norse created Skynet half a month later. Now, with two days having passed in the real world, would Maybas still create Skynet in half a month? Or perhaps thirteen days from now? What if the passage of time in the real world directly skipped over the time point when Skynet was created? What would happen then?
Lu Jie pondered over this question when he suddenly teleported back to his rental apartment in the real world.
The apartment was now occupied by the landlord, the landlord's pet dog, and a new male servant.
"Heh, I missed this last time," Lu Jie chuckled softly.
Last time, he hadn't taken into account the time difference between the real world and the simulation world. But his speculation was correct. He and those closely connected to him had indeed been replaced.
"Rubi is my exclusive robot girl, so she gets replaced. But what about others? Women? Subordinates?" Lu Jie murmured.
"Women are too much trouble. If the simulation goes wrong, and they still exist in the simulation world, I'll have to take care of them every time. Too much hassle."
Lu Jie frowned. If he wanted to experiment, it was better to use subordinates. Women were nothing but a burden.
"System, accelerate time," Lu Jie said slowly.
[Time passed by half a month, and Maybas Norse successfully created the artificial intelligence, Skynet. He was ecstatic and proclaimed it as a creation that could change the world.]
"Still half a month?" Lu Jie raised an eyebrow.
It seemed this too was fixed in the simulation.
Lu Jie shook his head and teleported to Maybas Norse's laboratory again, but this time, he chose to appear as a world observer.
"Teacher... Teacher!" Maybas Norse's disciple was the first to notice Lu Jie's presence. He opened his mouth in astonishment, trembling as he called out to his ecstatic teacher.
"Huh? What...?" Maybas Norse turned around, only to see Lu Jie. He nearly had a heart attack.
"World... World Observer!"
Maybas Norse's scalp tingled as he stared at Lu Jie with immense fear in his eyes. The presence of a World Observer was widely known to be dangerous. He never expected someone like him would appear before him.
"Maybas Norse, don't be afraid. I'm not here to harm you," Lu Jie said indifferently.
These words alleviated some of the fear from Maybas Norse and his disciple, but they still watched Lu Jie with utmost reverence.
"Do you have something you want from us?" Maybas Norse cautiously asked.
[Just as the host was about to speak, you were shocked to realize that you could now implant the archived memories directly into others' minds.]
The system's voice echoed, causing Lu Jie to raise an eyebrow.
So the system had upgraded.
Lu Jie glanced at Maybas Norse and snapped his fingers.
Immediately, he left the room.
Lu Jie came and left in a flash, leaving Maybas Norse's disciple and even Maybas himself confused.
However, Maybas Norse's confusion was caused by the sudden flood of memories in his mind.
In the memories, Skynet emerged, and he became its father. The Star Nation prospered. However, the Star Nation sought to develop the MR virus through Skynet and even sought to dominate the world. Unexpectedly, a betrayal within Skynet caused its destruction. Mankind fell under Skynet's control, losing their dominance over Blue Star, while the mechanical civilization thrived.
Humans lived like animals under Skynet's rule. The Rebel Alliance, led by another secret disciple of his, Charles, tried to fight back but failed, suffering heavy casualties.
Eventually, Charles and the T-101 robot fell in love, found an opportunity, and succeeded—but both died, and the technological level of humanity regressed by decades. It took twenty years to recover, but in the end, humanity still couldn't develop controllable nuclear fusion, and Blue Star was destroyed by a meteorite.
The information halted, and Maybas Norse came back to his senses, staring at his hands in a daze.
Had he created a catastrophe?
"Teacher, what's wrong?" His disciple asked with concern.
"I created Skynet. I've doomed humanity," Maybas Norse said bitterly, relaying the memories that the World Observer had implanted in him.
After hearing this, the disciple was stunned. He hadn't expected the World Observer to appear as a warning to them.
"Skynet... it must be destroyed," Maybas Norse sighed.
"Teacher, no! This is your life's work. If we limit Skynet's powers and functions, it can still bring huge benefits to humanity," his disciple tried to persuade him.
These words caused Maybas Norse to fall silent. He weighed the pros and cons carefully.
After a long pause, his eyes finally became resolute.
