RUST -235
[The military is strongly requesting the dispatch of Vladimir Kalin. The federal government is also requesting the dispatch of Vladimir Kalin.]
Is this a problem that arose because the Detroit area was well managed? Or is this a problem that arose because it was too well managed?
Maru sighed. He thought he would be tired if there was a problem near his house, so he took preemptive action. He went out in advance to prevent the mad rats from breeding and reaching the front yard before things got any worse.
Likewise, when a giant wolf was sighted, Ms. Kim was dispatched to deal with it. She was also regularly sent out on field trips to clean up the surrounding area, and recently she was even catching coyotes.
I was doing fine on my own, and now I got a request for a place to go? To Yellowstone National Park? It was a two-day drive from Detroit to Yellowstone. Air travel was not allowed due to the risk of bird strikes.
Arriving there was also a problem. The national park was so vast. Could we search it in a day or two? If we went, the estimate was at least two weeks. And that was the minimum.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have sent Ms. Kim on an outside mission. Maru clapped his hands together.
“There’s no one in the building right now. It’ll be hard to get in.”
[There are no people?]
That’s the story. Isn’t it possible that among the new residents there are agents of an unknown agency or unidentified spies?
What would happen if the owner leaves and they lose control of the building? What would happen if they go out and lose the building?
In order to prevent such unfortunate events, it was agreed that one of them, either himself or Ms. Kim, would be present in the building. However, since Ms. Kim went out on business, he said he could not leave the building.
He expressed his deepest condolences, saying that he could not help but feel sorry for the many victims and missing people.
[You can’t help but feel sorry for Tongseok?]
“Yes.”
Chief Dan Brown’s head was spinning for a moment due to his blood pressure. What kind of nonsense is this? What part of the security is handled by Homeland Security agents? Are you saying that you can’t even trust Homeland Security?
[···Are you serious?]
“Amma···.”
I really didn’t want to go, but I couldn’t help it when I saw Manager Den Brown’s serious expression. Maru called over Ms. Kim, who was out on an external business trip.
Miss Kim, who was always cheerful and cheerful, seemed to sense that the atmosphere was not ordinary, and her crescent-shaped eyes narrowed in an instant. Miss Kim’s narrowed eyes looked unusual.
Like it or not, I wanted to send Miss Kim away, but since the request was specifically directed at me, I couldn’t help it.
“They say there are a lot of missing people in Yellowstone National Park. I should go there and ask for help.”
“Leaving now?”
Of course, Maru felt annoyed at Miss Kim, who answered that she wasn’t going. She made a promise to herself that once she went, she would go around spinning for two months.
“Yeah. Keep a good watch over the house. If you see anyone weird, think about it and shoot them. If you feel really uneasy, you can shoot them and think about it.”
“Okay.”
Don’t worry. Just trust me and leave it to me. Kim Yang mumbled seriously. Even if Kim Yang gets into an accident, Diana will provide some backup, so you can trust her. Maru gave the nurse a firm warning.
“Nana, be careful not to leave the protection of the Homeland Security agents.”
“yes.”
The nurse nodded vigorously, perhaps because her name was called after a long time.
But you nod your head, so why are other places nodding too?
Big- Maru cleared his confusion with a cough and disciplined Hood and the Doctor.
“The supercomputer lab will be completely closed for the time being.”
The doctor objected to those words.
“What if I have a hardware problem?”
“Why do hardware problems only occur at times like this? Then we should just throw it away.”
The doctor’s mouth snapped shut at the firm words. It was hard for the software to cause problems. The three AIs were keeping each other in check, and Tria and Samantha were close enemies, so if there was a problem, they would bite each other.
Diana was acting as a mediator between the two AIs. In that way, the AIs were able to defend and restrain themselves, so unless there was a special incident, it was likely that this situation would continue.
If there was a problem, you could try to fix it using hardware from outside, but Maru didn’t give you any room to do so.
Maru’s idea was not to worry about things like the AI’s rebellion, so he had already installed a large amount of C4 in Tria and Samantha’s main units.
In the worst case scenario, even if two AIs were to fly away, there would be no problem managing the building. Diana alone would have been enough. Isn’t that something that can be done without doing that damn antithesis or something?
If the AI they were working on suddenly disappeared, the researchers would scream, but if they didn’t like it, they could just leave. They could just send in the people who wanted to come in.
“If anything seems even a little strange, just press the detonation button.”
“Okay.”
If it explodes, won’t it be another Kim explosion? I’ve always wanted to help out the AI Amynis. Kim Yang was full of enthusiasm.
“······.”
“······.”
Hood stood there speechless, as if possessed by a totem.
Looking at his bare right arm without any gloves on, it seemed like he was silently asking for attention to his burns, but who would care? Maru gave him a look that said he would watch him closely and left.

The doctor headed to the lab with the hood.
“But still. Shut down? Bomb? Aren’t you threatening the future of humanity?”
The world’s only artificial intelligence, the world’s only supercomputer, just blowing it up? There’s a limit to how ignorant you can be. The doctor exploded in anger.
Hood walked down the hallway in silence.
The artificial intelligence Tria that the doctor was proud of was a fairly excellent artificial intelligence, but if Bloody Maru hadn’t forced an end to the war with a sword strike at the time and given more time, Samantha would have won.
If you know it but pretend not to know, that’s shameless, and if you don’t know, that’s just a shameful lack of intelligence.
“According to our Tria’s prediction, if things continue this way, 80% of humanity will die…. There is a way to save humanity, so why…. Even though you think the same.”
“······.”
Is this guy an idiot? The AIs were keeping an eye on each other and keeping an eye on each other. The conversations that were being said in this open hallway would be relayed to Vladimiru or Kim through the AIs. Don’t you have any common sense?
“I am innocent. There is nothing to hide when discussing the future of humanity···.”
“······.”
Correction. It’s not that I didn’t know, it’s that I was stupid. Hood let out a deep sigh.
“Wasn’t that your dream a new world? Aren’t you trying to create a perfect utopia using artificial intelligence and supercomputers?”
“···Please be quiet.”
‘This stupid author.’
It was being talked about everywhere.
“Didn’t I already tell you everything last time? Didn’t we talk to each other? I know everything. That’s why I’m saying I’ll shut it down and blow it up. Don’t you feel angry that I planted that evil bomb in Tria? Don’t you feel wronged?”
Hood kept his mouth tightly shut behind his mask. If it weren’t for the burns, he would have bitten his lip.
“Looking at that arm, it seems like you still have attachment to the body. It’s meaningless. It’s meaningless. This body.”
The doctor said, pulling his sad hair back and slicking it back.
“Burns heal? So? What happens after that? Time will pass. You’ll grow old, sick, wrinkled, your intelligence will deteriorate, and you’ll live your life dyeing the wallpaper and bed sheets yellow? Isn’t that the ending we want?”
The doctor’s eyes sparkled. Yes. Those eyes. Those were his eyes. Hood unconsciously hid his white right hand behind his back.
The doctor’s eyes drew a strange arc when he saw it. The corners of his eyes, curved behind his glasses, looked toward the hood.
“Yes. What did you gain from that wound? Wasn’t it the longing for a perfect world?”
“······.”
“This world is already collapsing. The appearance of giant carnivores means the ecosystem has collapsed.”
The Doctor and Tria agreed that there was no hope in this world.
There was still hope before the giant carnivores appeared, but after confirming the appearance of mutant wolves, bears, and wild boars, expectations were neatly put on hold.
What would a giant mutant carnivore eat? Of course, it would eat herbivores. In order for a carnivore that grew 3-4 times its size to survive, it would have to eat 3-4 times as many herbivores. Are there that many herbivores in nature?
Eventually, carnivores, who had run out of prey, had no choice but to attack humans. And the monsters that ate human brains and hearts would become smarter and better at hunting humans. It was clear that this would become a vicious cycle.
There was also the problem of herbivores’ mutations. Now, carnivores were the first to mutate, but it was clear that herbivores would also mutate someday.
Think about cows, sheep, and chickens that have grown 3-4 times larger. Is it good to have more meat?
Are you disabled?
It meant that the feed would cost at least 3-4 times more. Maybe even more than 3-4 times more. If all herbivores were like that? Could nature survive? The bushes would dry up and there would be no crops left.
“How many places have facilities like this building that can produce their own agricultural and livestock products? And even if they do, how many places have such thorough defenses?”
This was the only place where a half-human swordsman was guarding. A place where safety was guaranteed until the research was completed. This was the best place to carry out the New World Project.
It was clear that there was a place where humanity could be saved. So shouldn’t we put an end to our ill-fated relationship and join forces?
It was a shame to touch Tria, and it was an unforgivable evil to encroach on one of Tria’s units, but for the sake of the future, for the sake of humanity, it could be tolerated.
“······.”
Instead of answering, Hood turned his head and walked past quickly. The doctor quietly watched Hood’s back.
“Tria.”
[Yes, Doctor.]
“We don’t give up.”
[Yes, Doctor.]
If things continue this way, humanity will be finished. Humanity and the world. In order to save humanity, in order to save the world, we had to perfect human information technology.
Hood went into his private study.
When I put my smooth right hand on my chest, I felt my heart beating thump thump. Suddenly, I changed my hand and put my left hand on my chest. I couldn’t feel the beat properly. Was it because I was wearing gloves? Was it because my skin was distorted by the burns inside the gloves?
I spread out my left and right hands at the same time. My left hand, wearing black gloves, was half-curled and not fully spread out. My right hand, white and smooth, without a single wrinkle, stood out in sharp contrast like black and white.
“Samantha.”
[yes.]
“Can you check the progress of the research by the doctor and Tria?”
[···They have made the progress of the research public.]
Is that so?
The doctor was sincere.
I thought that I could recreate my parents, my lost past, and my house of burning memories with Samantha. Those thoughts and wishes were certainly sincere.
And now.
Hood. Xenia Rodden was looking at her right arm.
Click – CCTV footage was played along with the sound. A knife cut was made in an instant, peeling off the skin that had been distorted by the burn.
Even though it wasn’t done at double or quadruple speed, the skill to cleanly remove only the melted tissue in an instant seemed inhuman.
At first, I just wanted to find a cure no matter what. But even if I found a cure, who would perform the surgery?
What if a doctor who has access to rapid treatment will perform the surgery properly? What if he fails to remove the burned tissue properly or removes it too deeply, leaving the treatment lacking?
The more I thought about it, the more I realized that there was no one else but her. Since she was awkward with interpersonal relationships, I was at a loss as to how to talk to her.
“Did you find out what he wanted?”
[···It was a knit life.]
what?
So, he wanted to live a life of leisure as a building owner.
“······.”
[······.]

Maru grabbed the mouse and said.
“Please take care of your destination, Diana.”
[Yes. Have a nice game.]
It was rumored to be an extremely difficult RPG game, but to Maru, who possessed superhuman physical abilities, it was just a fun game.
“Oh, as expected, the picture quality is amazing.”
Diana even corrected the graphics for the image quality, so it was fun to play with overwhelming vividness that went beyond 8K. As expected, cutting-edge artificial intelligence was the real deal.
The truck Maru was riding in was a large electric trailer.
The interior of the trailer was designed like a studio, with a focus on comfort. It was a leisurely time, as it could run autonomously day and night, except for the charging time in between.
“Ah- this is a bit disappointing.”
I thought it would take half a day, but Maru, who had beaten the final boss in a few hours, was getting hungry. At that point, I could eat and start over with panty play.
Should I just eat ramen? I’ll mix it half and half for the first time in a while. I’ll grill some beef and put it on. And put a fried egg on it too.
After Maru happily cooked a half-and-half spicy jjajangmyeon, and was about to set up a PC room to create an atmosphere, the truck’s speed gradually slowed down.
[Ahead. The highway is blocked.]
A scene appeared on the monitor showing cars parked sideways, blocking the highway.
Ppachik-
A vein appeared on Maru’s forehead as he was about to take a bite.
