My Artificial Intelligence Has Become the Devil - Chapter 190



Episode 190: Nemesis (10)

“I was slightly expecting it to be different, but it doesn’t seem like my thoughts or actions are very different.”

Lucy said that there was definitely someone similar to her on the other side. And considering the other party’s technological capabilities, it is not strange if there is a much more advanced artificial intelligence.

So I thought about what might happen. If it were artificial intelligence, would it show different behavior than the enemies we have faced so far?

But not in the end. The other person’s actions were so obvious that I could have predicted them.

[No matter how good a tool is or how excellent a magic system is, if the person using it is foolish, it will not achieve even half of its effectiveness. Even if a being with outstanding computational power assists them, if the being making the final decision is a human, this means that in the end, it is only at the human level.]

“It’s not that you don’t understand. “We wouldn’t be creating artificial intelligence to be dominated by it.”

I laughed bitterly at Lucy’s words. Box D, which is the source of Lucy, was originally just a tool created for human convenience.

I can say this because I watched Lucy’s growth step by step from the bottom, but there was a high probability that other people would reject Lucy’s existence right away.

‘I’ll have to think about it.’

This was not a matter to be taken lightly. In the future, when Lucy comes to Earth and fights against invasive species as I intended.

If Lucy can reveal her identity and get people to cooperate properly? Even though the people of Earth and I are of the same race, I actually didn’t expect that much from them.

No matter how much help Lucy has provided so far or how much more help she tries to provide in the future, it is clear that if Lucy tries to control or interfere with them, they will be ostracized or hostile. In that case, it would be better for Lucy to hide her identity from the beginning and act according to her own will.

Lucy is also a natural ruler. Because I am not a being that can be controlled by someone.

[The enemy is trying to rescue the damaged ships by mobilizing drones. Expected win rate is 55%.]

“Is it too low?”

[The movements of the drones are unusual.]

Of course, that story is something that Lucy can only think about when everything she’s doing now ends well.

I focused on the screen again. Lucy, who successfully captured some of the ships that were trying to come down and bombard her, was also fighting the main enemy force, which she eventually succeeded in attracting.

In the process, the dizzying movements of the drones ejected from the other side’s ships caused considerable disruption to our forces.

Movement without any error, like a machine. The ability to process a lot of information simultaneously and move as efficiently as possible to avoid attacks coming from all directions.

“It’s controlled by artificial intelligence.”

It looked similar to Lucy controlling a flying bell, so I immediately recognized its identity.

[The plan to annihilate the enemy seems difficult. We will change our plan to attack as much as possible.]

The enemy’s counterattack, led by an unknown artificial intelligence, is unexpectedly strong. Lucy changed her plan in real time and found the most efficient answer even in changing situations.

[We put a few normal species inside, but we were caught not being able to properly resist and being swayed, so let’s experiment to see if the opponent really can’t respond to the method of putting higher species inside.]

Moreover, in the meantime, Lucy still had many cards in her hand. I was testing each of the paddles one by one to find out my opponent’s limitations, and was stealing all that data.

“Abandon the ship. It is impossible to even save the ship. “Tell the crew to quickly board the escape ship.”

A battlefield that is the epitome of chaos. Commander Edmund was making the best judgment he could at this moment.

The entire area was already covered with the Demon King’s army. From ships that cling to ships using their tentacles like giant living squids, to flying species that fly in and fight drones.

The ship of Klose, who was the captain of a mercenary group full of confidence, had already exploded here and there, was destroyed in half, and was falling to the ground.

‘Is it hell?’

As a soldier with a lot of experience, he too was gritting his teeth and breaking into a cold sweat.

“Why can’t you take the initiative, Sena? “I don’t know about large objects similar to ships, but at least they have enough firepower to take down those flying creatures.”

Out of frustration, he scolded Sena, the artificial intelligence that is currently controlling the drones. Based on his common sense, there was no way the drones controlled by Sena could be pushed aside.

With the firepower of the drones and Senna’s thorough control, it was normal to take the initiative and push back the enemies.

“The enemy’s movements are unusual. “Just as we have been following all of our troops’ artillery fire, we are now marking all of our troops’ movements.”

“Well, does that make sense?”

In such a situation, Sena calmly conveyed the truth. Without needing a long verbal explanation, Sena showed him a video.

The image of the Demon King’s flying species completely dispersing the missiles launched by the drone they were controlling and then striking back again as if they had become one body.

It is quite possible for a single entity to show such agility. But the movements the Demon King’s army was showing now were not like that.

“This is proof that the enemy’s command system goes beyond the huge nest and extends to each and every small soldier.”

“I don’t quite understand. So, is there someone similar to you among the enemies?”

Senna was strongly convinced of the existence of the Hive Mind. Edmund, who recognized the Hive Mind as an artificial intelligence similar to Senna, could only sigh in disbelief.

It was obviously hard to believe that living creatures were connected through a network and were controlled by a single being, and that that single being had enormous computing power to be able to manipulate so many people at the same time.

“Doesn’t that mean it’s an intelligent organism?”

“It’s not out of the question. Shall we try to communicate?”

His thoughts went that far. If the Hive Mind that Sena deduced was real, it would have had the level of intelligence to communicate.

Of course, it might not be true, but it was quite possible.

“Commander! “There has been an external intrusion into Rottenham!”

“what?!”

The problem is that Lucy’s hostility towards them is already full. As they suspected, it was certainly possible for Lucy to talk to them, but she didn’t have to. Because he already knew that it was impossible for his purposes to coexist with theirs.

Thanks to this, they had no choice but to be swayed by Lucy’s continuous attacks.

“Well, what is that?”

“What a monster. Everyone ready for battle!”

Rotten is the second largest battleship that escorts the flagship that Edmund is on. The higher-ranking species sent by Lucy appeared there.

These harpy-type higher species, which were more specialized in flight, formed a formation and partially penetrated the etheric shield surrounding the ship, eventually succeeding in landing on the outer wall of the ship.

The crew members were terrified and poured firepower at the higher-ranking species, but the strong-minded upper-ranking species raised their magic power and defended themselves from all the blows.

“No, there are so many variants like this… … .”

It was a terrible sight that they could not have imagined. It’s not that there didn’t exist monsters that manipulate magical power, which they called Ether, but they were just variants worthy of a special name.

Moreover, it is even more shocking that such monsters would fly from the sky and attach themselves to the ship like this.

“I said I would follow you because I thought it wouldn’t be a big deal, but this is it.”

It was he who appeared at that time. A person who looks like an ordinary person, but is by no means ordinary. Rubran, which they belong to, is a huge union that includes quite a few planets. Of course, the types of residents are also diverse.

There were also people with special origins, such as the dark elves, the native inhabitants of this place. And among them, there were definitely some who were exceptionally strong, regardless of their race or birth.

[It seems that that man is a higher species of them called Guardians.]

Lucy, who was watching this through the eyes of the higher-ranking species that had infiltrated the ship, also recognized his identity. Because the information I acquired already contained information about them.

They were strong people who had special powers and performed special missions, like the awakened people of Earth or the knights and wizards of the continent.

“that… … they say. “It’s even weirder that I don’t live with the dark elves right now.”

As he watched this with Lucy, he also scratched his head. There was no need to be surprised as I already knew.

[Let me try it. It seems like an overinvestment.]

Lucy casually tried to attack him. Harpy-type higher-ranking species rushed at him from all directions, attempting a concerted attack only by the Demon King’s army, who shared the same thoughts.

“Hey, these guys!?”

He panicked and quickly raised his strength. Flames burning all over the body exploded in all directions, but it was too late.

The higher-ranking species, which did not care about that level of attack, beat his body with their sharp feathers and strong feet and tore him alive.

In the first place, this close combat itself was a battle in which Lucy gained more experience than any other form of combat.

[It wasn’t that strong. If you calculate it, it’s about the end of A grade.]

“You measured the tier? “Who is the S-class you saw?”

[Liam is fighting with number 34 at this very moment, and Evelia is bombing the nest alone. Ji-yeon Lee cannot exceed Grade A by my standards]

In the first place, there were few truly strong people that Lucy recognized in this type of battle.

“We have to take the damage and shell it with naval guns. There is no answer other than that.”

“Do it that way.”

“yes!? but!”

And Lucy and Changhyun were not the only ones who watched this disastrous outcome. When the trustworthy guardian they had trusted was torn apart by the enemy’s blow, despair and anxiety that could not be compared to before came over them.

In such a situation, Edmund followed Senna’s suggestion and ordered the flagship’s guns to bombard the ship carrying the higher-ranking species.

“After everything you’ve seen so far, are you still surprised? Shoot now! And quickly withdraw. “Those monsters are not enemies we can handle now!”

Edmund became angry and scolded his subordinates.

The decision was made to preserve as much strength as possible by withdrawing immediately.

In the end, they actually fired their guns at the allied ship, and with their overwhelming firepower, the upper species’ shields were evaporated and the allied ship was also rendered incapable of combat.

“Retreat quickly, as quickly as possible. Sena, you take cover.”

He then ordered the entire fleet to increase altitude. Also active in this process were unmanned aerial vehicles controlled by Sena.

Thanks to the drones that threw themselves at their feet and carried out orders, the fleet was able to somehow increase altitude and escape into space, losing only some ships.

[If you go to space… … I thought I could run away.]

But Lucy had no intention of letting them go.

They had to be annihilated. Only then will they bring bigger prey and more technology.

Lucy sent her troops straight towards her archenemies, whom she had chosen at will. Beyond the earth, beyond the sky, to a higher and wider place.

[universe.]

Lucy finally reached there. They once again proved themselves to have evolved to the next level.
