Chapter 27 Attacked

The small episode at the port did not disturb Bianca and Ye You at all.

After staying in the submarine for three days, I finally got up and got some breath. Even if I just breathe the air mixed with sunlight, it was a pleasure.

"Captain Shakespeare said, give us a day off, and all the consumption in the city can be reimbursed for her - but where should we go?"

Ye You and Bianca are new to him, and the mechanic Jimmy is not a person who likes to spend time and drink.

He is still a child, but the maintenance and maintenance of submarines depend entirely on him. He is a very outstanding mechanic. He is just a little timid.

"This, here, the robot... has the function of a tour guide," Jimmy introduced.

"Not only the police, but also the function of a tour guide?" Bianca was surprised that even in their world, artificial intelligence has not yet spread to the point of civil use.

"Yes, yes, it's amazing."

"Who are these robots responsible for?" Ye You asked. It's impossible to operate spontaneously.

"It is an institution called the "City Management Association", which can also be regarded as the "City Hall". They use robots to maintain public order and collect taxes and other urban management."

"This is really not an ordinary two." Ye You exclaimed.

He couldn't help but want to take apart and see this cylindrical robot like a mailbox, and see what the internal structure is.

Being able to do what Jimmy said is definitely a real strong artificial intelligence.

"——Sir, please don't do anything randomly. If you make bad actions against the robot, the alarm system will be triggered, and the enemy's judgment will be made at that time."

Suddenly a female voice intervened.

Ye You turned around and looked at a girl with golden hair as sun, wearing a pure white robe like an ancient Greek sage, with petal-like feather ornaments on both sides of her hair.

"Thank you for your reminder. Are you?"

"I am a philosopher." The visitor said proudly.

"Philosopher... This is really full of freedom." Ye You felt something was wrong when he heard this word.

The visitor nodded, "Materials are limited, and thinking is infinite. In this sense, philosophers are undoubtedly closest to the other end of freedom."

Can this be connected?

"So, are you?" Bianca asked again, no matter what he said, he didn't know what to call her.

She pretended to cough twice: "Hello everyone, my name is Thales Hu Milidus. Her profession is the director of the three armies in the Institute of Metaphysics in the 'Big Library' - that is, a true philosopher."

So, why do you have to emphasize that you are a philosopher?

She handed over a business card, Jimmy couldn't help but widen her eyes and said excitedly: "Are you really a library staff member? It's so awesome."

“Big library?”

Jimmy said excitedly: "The big library here is the most powerful research institution in the world. The robot system in the city is designed by the big library. It is also one of the highest management institutions in the city."

When Bianca heard Jimmy's words, he couldn't help but step forward: "Since you are such a big shot, it's not for no reason to come to us. What's the point?"

Thales leaned forward, his golden hair swaying, and there was a faint fragrance. He smiled and said, "Of course it's because I'm interested in you."

“…”

“To be precise, being interested in your identity as ‘outsiders’ will allow our big libraries to gain a lot of other knowledge. I will act with you and in return,”

Thales patted his chest with his white hands, "It's up to me, the library's top researcher, to serve as a tour guide, how about taking you to visit this city!"

Little Jimmy nodded excitedly. It seemed that he really admired the big library very much. This is a sense of awe of any scholar for his knowledge.

Ye You and Bianca looked at each other, "A good offer."

Thales happily closed his palms and took them to the holy land of this bustling city.

Rice Noodle Chiffon Cake in "Nile River Orchard"; Canned Sea Urchin in "Memories of Nicosia"; Pineapple Crafts in "Copenhagen Mermaid"...

Ye You walked more and more and more and more and more, why did this guy look a bit like a salesman?

As if he read Ye You's voice, Thales smiled and said, "After all, this is also a tourist city."

Finally, they came to the big library where Jimmy had been talking about the amazing things.

When they walked in, even Bianca exclaimed, "This size is really amazing, it has been cultivated to the tenth floor of the underground."

The overall structure of the large library is spiral, and the walls made of bookshelf wind upwards to more than ten meters high, and the same goes for the same thing as those downwards, all filled with books.

"Many of the books here are 'outsiders', through memories and retelling, house many works from other worlds.

There are both "Zen Zen and Motorcycle Maintenance Technology", "Faceless Moon", "Analysis of the Pros and Consciousness of the Separation of Powers and Constitutional Monarchy", and "Houm Adventure".

"ha?"

"Of course, these are all 'memories', not 'original'. If the content of these books exists differently from your understanding, please be sure to mark them. If you are lucky, you may get a commission."

Ye You looked at the ocean of books, "In other words, all the books here can be read at will?"

"Yes."

Ye You walked into it and swam in the sea of ​​books. After finding the books he was interested in, he sat down to read them.

[I suggest thinking about this question: Can machines think?

This question should start with a reexamination of the definition of "thinking". What is "thinking"?

People are accustomed to frame these definitions as often as possible in daily life—but this attitude is dangerous.

So, I try to explore a brand new model to explain what it means to think...]

Just as Ye You was focusing on reading the collection of papers of "Alan Turing", the Caledonia encountered an unprecedented attack.

“Retreat quickly!”

"All personnel are on the shore! There is not enough lifeboats? I swim over there too. If I continue to stay here, I will die!"

"I have never heard of such a sea monster in the shallow sea area of ​​Alexandria!"

Captain Shakespeare also has good martial arts skills. She held the sword and was back-to-back with the first mate "Iron-faced Man" on the submarine, staring at the sea nervously, and buying time for the crew members who were staying on the boat.

The huge sea monster that came from somewhere just now opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the crew member who was unloading it into his stomach in one bite.

Rita reacted immediately. After putting on her hands, she chased into the sea directly, but soon a second sea monster jumped out, causing huge white waves, and hitting violently at the submarine floating on the water.
