Chapter 1 Smart One
It was already evening. In a room at the Center for Theoretical Physics Research at Tianjin University, Xu Zhenghua put down his pen, stood up tiredly, walked to the window, staring at the sky and dazed.
As one of the most famous researchers in modern physics and a scientist with profound attainments in quantum field theory, mathematics, M theory, etc., his work has always been very heavy. At this moment, even when he is resting, his mind has been habitually thinking about some difficult problems that perhaps only he can understand in the whole world.
This sentence is not an exaggeration, but the development of modern science is too meticulous. Except for some popular fields, many people are studying, some relatively unpopular fields are often only a few research teams in the whole world. Some don’t even have a single team, and only some scientists are conducting research.
This is the direction of research that Xu Zhenghua has studied. As of now, he has only been doing this research direction with a few graduate students in the world who have started.
When he chose this research direction that was generally not optimistic about by the scientific community and considered a dead end, many people expressed regret for this, believing that it would waste his genius brain. Even being able to recruit graduate students was because of his previous fame.
But Xu Zhenghua has always believed that this direction is the most correct way to explore the truth of the universe.
As he was staring at the sky in a daze, a shining star that had never appeared before suddenly appeared and entered Xu Zhenghua's eyes.
This is very strange.
Xu Zhenghua frowned slightly.
A star suddenly appeared in the night sky, and thousands of kilometers away, the capital city was now in the daytime. Next to the bustling Human Square, in front of the gate of Wenhua Palace No. 3, a dedicated guard seriously stopped a young man trying to enter.
"Sir, you don't have a document and can't go in."
Wenhua Palace is a collective name for a large area of mountains, rivers, lakes, and modern buildings. This is the residence of the Earth government, the absolute heart of the entire earth and the entire human civilization.
The young man who was stopped looked sunny and handsome, always with a harmless smile on his face.
"I have something important to talk to your head of government on earth."
The guard still had a blank expression: "You can't go in, please leave immediately."
The young man still had a smile on his face: "Very good. Well, just Sanguan City, Sanguan City will be destroyed in half an hour because of your rejection."
After saying that, he turned around and left, and sat down leisurely on a bench not far away.
The sun is still bright at this moment, and the tourists are still bustling around.
Here at the Research Center, Xu Zhenghua looked carefully at the star that suddenly appeared in the sky, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.
It is not a meteor because it is very stable. It is not a planet, because it will not appear suddenly. And such a bright planet must mean a huge enough volume and mass. In this way, it should have been discovered long ago. It is not a comet, the same reason as above.
Comprehensive analysis shows that it is very likely to be a supernova.
A star suddenly exploded in the distant deep space means a lot of physical information. At this moment, many scientific researchers on the earth should be busy because of this emergency. But this has little to do with Xu Zhenghua, so someone will naturally hand over the observation conclusions after the observation.
Sanguan City is a small and medium-sized city with a total population of about four million. At this moment, citizens are working and living as usual. But suddenly, with a dazzling light suddenly appearing in the sky, it seems that everything is different.
The waiter holding the plate suddenly fell down, and the delicacy sprinkled all over the floor; the couple who were hugging and kissing each other fell down, and held each other's arms and spread them weakly on the ground; the cheerful puppy fell down in an instant without having time to make a cry of sorrow, and its owner fell softly to the ground.
The uncontrolled car collided violently, caught fire, underground trains roared forward, and the carriage was filled with the bodies of passengers.
The dazzling light flashed in a flash, but in this moment, all the lives in Sanguan City had died. Including people, including pets, wild dogs, wild cats, birds, bacteria, viruses...
All dead.
It turned into a ghost town.
At this moment, there are still crowds of people on the Human Square, and there is peace.
At this moment, a tourist sitting next to the young man flipped through his cell phone and suddenly said to himself in shock: "An unknown incident occurred in Sanguan City, and no survivors have been found yet?"
Hearing this sentence, the smiling face of the sunny and handsome young man became stronger.
The news was conveyed quickly like fission, and even the guard who had previously refused the young man to enter the Wenhua Palace heard it.
He turned his head and slowly searched the young man's traces in the square. When he saw the target still sitting leisurely on the bench, his pupils suddenly shrank.
After thinking for a few minutes, he took out the walkie-talkie that was blocking his waist.
Ten minutes later, a large number of police arrived quietly, and helicopters began to appear in the sky.
An inexplicable solemn atmosphere began to spread over the square.
After the tourists were evacuated, a team of policemen walked towards the handsome young man who was still sitting on the bench.
"Sir, you need to go with us."
The young man smiled and said, "I really want to go with you, but I have more important things to do. Unless you don't care that another city is destroyed."
Several policemen's expressions changed drastically, and some even subconsciously raised their guns and aimed at him.
But his face was still full of smiles.
The policeman in charge picked up the communicator and whispered something, and after a moment, he said, "What do you want to do? Maybe I can help you."
The young man pointed to the Manhua Palace ahead: "I said that I need to talk to your head of the world government."
After asking for advice, the policeman said, "Please come with me."
The young man stood up and walked towards the gate of Wenhua Palace No. 3 under countless gazes. In the past moment, more than a dozen trucks with ordinary appearances and various precision detection equipment inside were parked on both sides of the gate.
After he left, the bench he had sat on, the floor he had stepped on, and the things he had touched were taken away as fast as possible. More than a dozen air specimens were collected next to the bench.
He walked straight into Gate No. 3, and this time, the guard did not stop him.
In the Doomsday No. 1 Base, which was urgently activated, a latest report was placed before the head of state.
"The target is not a creature, but a mechanical creation."
The head of state frowned slightly.
This means a lot of things.
A robot that looks no different from a normal human from the outside, just like destroying a city in an instant, means technology far beyond the human world.
At the gate of Wenhua Palace No. 3, led by the policeman, the young robot who looked sunny and handsome finally came to an inconspicuous small room.
Many details show that the small room has just been hasty construction, such as exposed cables, raised iron sheets, steel nails that have not been fully drilled into it, etc. But he ignored it.
The small room is simply decorated, with only a large desk with a large furniture, and a computer is placed on it, and a chair is in front of the desk.
"The Head of State cannot have an interview with you, you can talk to him through video links."
The young robot smiled and said, "Yes."
The police left and strictly blocked the room. The young robot clicked the mouse, and a slightly old and arrogant face appeared in front of the young man. At the same time, in the Doomsday Base, the head of state, many members of the think tank team, many officials, as well as the politicians, scientists, and members of the think tank team, also had the faces of the young robots in front of the head of state, many members of the think tank team, as well as the politicians, scientists, and members of the think tank team at the rest of the base.
"Hello, Head of Earth Government. I am Smart One."
The name Smart One clearly shows the identity of the young robot. It seems that he has no intention of hiding this point.
In the video, the head of state slowly said, "Who are you representing?"
“I come on behalf of the savior’s civilization.”
When the five words "Savior Civilization" appeared, I don't know how many people felt that way in their hearts.
"What do you want to do when you come to Earth?"
"Announce something to you. From now on, your human civilization is the vassal of our savior civilization."
A sudden fury flashed through the head of state's eyes, but it calmed down in an instant.
Smart No. 1 smiled faintly and continued: "Destroying a city is just a small display of force to avoid any unpleasant things in the future."
The head of state said in a deep voice: "What do you want from the earth?"
"Resources. A huge amount of resources. After providing a sufficient number of resources, we will leave."
"Where are you from? Where are you going? How did you discover our civilization? You..."
Before he could finish his questions, he was interrupted by Smart No. 1.
"You don't need to know that much."
The voice of the head of state became colder: "We need some guarantees."
"ensure?"
"A guarantee that we will not perish after providing the resources you need, and... the guarantee that the process of providing resources will not hurt our civilization too much."
"I can guarantee you."
Smart No. 1 snapped her fingers: "Okay."
There was still a faint smile on his face, as if he was just telling some jokes.
But just a few minutes later, a message reached the head of the ears of the Doomsday Base.
"The city of Hellos disconnected all contacts from the outside world a few minutes ago. The first witness reported that he saw many bodies..."
The head of state's arm bulged with blue veins, his eyes full of anger.
