<h4>Chapter 1543: Your Master Will Save The World</h4>


    The rebellion in Guanghan City was over.


    In the final battle, the Third Orbital Airborne Brigadeunched a fierce attack on the robots, forcing the position of the rebels into a small space capsule.


    Without ordering his subordinates to attack, Li Gaoliang ordered the soldiers to cut off the connection between the space modules, then called for an air attack by the First Fleet.


    The two naval guns fired down a wave of missiles. Before the robots even had time to react, they were torn to pieces by the two naval guns, together with the entire space capsule. Theyid there like space junk on the surface of the lunar soil.


    As for those robots that might not have been infected with the ALPHA virus, Li Gaoliang had no ns to keep them.


    Except for a few samples that would be used for research purposes, the rest of the robots were taken to a factory, where they were thrown in a metal smelting furnace.


    Even the recyble parts.


    He did not intend to keep any of them..


    The victory of the war quickly spread back to Earth, but no one was happy.


    The entire Pan-Asian Cooperation and the entire world were in a pessimistic mood, and this moodsted for more than half a month, ever since the rebellion broke out.


    No one thought that their trusted partner would actually do such a cruel thing.


    Especially after the news of the rare earth factory massacre case was announced, the long list of bloody victims made viewers feel a sense of coldness deep in their bones.


    Before this, there were some voices of sympathy for the robots, to grant the robots full citizenships, but these voices had basically disappeared.


    The mes of anger burned in everyone’s heart, whether it was Pan-Asians or the Americans on the opposite side of the earth. There was no need for the Pan-Asian Cooperation to issue an emergency announcement. People had begun to spontaneously boycott robots, unplugging batteries and memory chips from them, smashing them into pieces...


    “It’s not looking good.”


    Han Ming looked at the empty shop and sighed.


    This rebellion not only hit the economy and the stability of Guanghan City, but it also impacted the entire robot industry chain. Especially those who supplied parts and essories for robots like him. Forget the fact that no customers hade to the door recently, even if there was, he would not dare to open the door for business.


    However, due to thebor shortage caused by the departure of the robots, the prices of goods had been soaring. He felt that if he did not n for the future, he might not even be able to eat food next month.


    There was a knock on the door.


    Han Ming looked at the pop-up window. He then replied casually, “Please go back, it’s closed... forever.”


    “I am Academician Lu’s robot.”


    After hearing the word robot, Han Ming shuddered subconsciously. But when he heard the name Academician Lu, he hesitated for a while. He finally calmed down a little and walked to the door.


    He opened the door.


    As Han Ming looked at the two robots standing at the door, he touched his chin and said, “Oh... I recognize you, but this time, why isn’t the guy named Ling here? Or did Ling change his skin?”


    Thedy standing next to Xiao Ai nodded politely.


    “My name is Tail.”


    Han Ming: “Tail? Your master’s taste in naming is really unique.”


    Xiao Ai: “This is also one of Xiao Ai’s Master’s unique traits.”


    Han Ming continued to ask, “Is it? It doesn’t matter to me anyway. It’s not peaceful outside. Why are you looking for me at this time? To change your skin? Or to rece some parts. If you need it, it’s best to do it all at once. Next time youe here, I’ll probably be selling groceries instead.”


    Xiao Ai: “My master hopes you can do him a little favor. (??????)??”


    Han Ming: “Help Academician Lu? A small person like me...”


    Xiao Ai: “Aren’t you good at modifying the underlying logic of robots? My master hopes that you can make an update program based on the memory chip of thedy next to me, and then release it in your name—”


    “Can’t be done.” Han Ming said bluntly, “This kind of thing is simply impossible. Take the robots produced by Hippocampus Group as an example. As the world’srgest robot manufacturer, they will conduct system inspections on their own products every month. Considering the role of robots in daily life, in order to absolutely guarantee the safety of users, this kind of update can only bepleted on their back-end systems at a specific time.


    “Do you think it is such an easy thing to upgrade the memory system? If so, the robot virus would not have spread through the ck market. It would have been done directly by hacking into the Hippocampus Group servers.”


    Xiao Ai: “I see. In other words, if you want to upgrade the system, you must first get the permissions from the Hippocampus Group? (??????)??”


    <i>Is this girl really a robot?</i>


    Han Ming looked at Xiao Ai suspiciously. He then nodded and continued, “Technically, yes, although it is quite troublesome even after obtaining the authority, and it is possible to do it only after obtaining the authority...”


    <i>Is it even possible to get this kind of authority?</i>


    <i>This is not something that can be done by hacking a few servers and leaving a few backdoors.</i>


    Since the poprization of quantummunication technology, this kind of mysterious hackers had basically disappeared. After all, no matter how strong the decryption system was, it couldn’t crack the information that was physically encrypted by quanta. A personalputer could never be as powerful as a cluster of quantumputers on a cloud server.


    Forget about hackers, even personalputers were rarely owned by individuals.


    Most of the calctions were done on the cloud. Only a small number of people in the gray industry or on the edge of thew, for the purpose of evading supervision, would consider buying the hard-to-maintain mainframe chassis instead of renting a personal cloud server.


    Xiao Ai: “Then there is no problem. (.???)”


    Han Ming was stunned and said, “What do you mean no problem...”


    Xiao Ai: “Although it was confirmed only recently, my owner is, in fact, the major shareholder of Hippocampus Group, so it should be no problem to get the background system authority. (??????)??”


    <i>Major shareholder?</i>


    After hearing these words, Han Ming was dumbfounded.


    After snapping back to reality, he asked hurriedly, “Wait... Academician Lu. Isn’t he the chairman of East Asia Energy? Why is he rted to the Hippocampus Group...?”


    Xiao Ai: “Nothing weird about this. After all, the twopanies are rted to him from as far back as a hundred years ago. He is indeed worthy of being Xiao Ai’s master. He even considered things that might happen a hundred yearster! ”


    <i>Nothing weird...</i>


    <i>This is too...</i>


    Han Ming gulped. His eyes vacited as he continued with difficulty, “But... Since he is a major shareholder, why not just let the engineers do it? Why involve people like me who are insignificant?”


    Xiao Ai: “Um... How do I put it? The main reason is that my owner can’t trust them. There is a group of terrorists that have prated the entire society of Pan-Asian Cooperation to a very serious degree. He can only safely delegate this task to an unknown person like you. ( ????`)”


    <i>Unknown person...</i>


    <i>That’s true, but that’s kind of offensive...</i>


    Han Ming gave a wry smile, but he didn’tin.


    After all, robots didn’t have the highest emotional intelligence.


    However, just as he was about to ask about thepensation, he suddenly realized a very serious question, so he immediately stopped the words that had flooded his lips and asked cautiously, “In other words, I will be in danger?”


    Xiao Ai nodded frankly. “Yes, but Master asked me to tell you that this may be your only chance to save the world. If you miss it, you won’t get this opportunity again in the future. (‵▽’) ψ”


    Han Ming gulped.


    Xiao Ai sighed and continued, “Oh yes, also, Master asked me to tell you that, once this is done, he intends to pay you 100 million credits... Well, Xiao Ai thinks it’s too much, or—”


    “Deal! W-wait a second!”


    In an instant, the human in front of Xiao Ai burst out with unimaginable enthusiasm.


    Han Ming quickly reached out his index finger and tapped on his left wrist. Through the holographic window hovering on his wrist, he swiped through the address book and quickly selected a number.


    The phone rang twice and was connected quickly.


    What appeared in the video window was a pretty girl.


    Xiao Ai had met her several times. She was the apprentice of the man in front of her.


    Han Ming looked at the sleepy-eyed girl in the video window as he said solemnly, “Kiddo.”


    “What’s the matter, Master?” The girl said with a yawn, “Is our store going to open?”


    “I need to discuss something with you.”


    Hearing Master’s solemn voice, the girl on the other end of the phone hesitated slightly and asked tentatively, “Our store is going to close down?”


    “Close? Nope. Your master has to rely on it for retirement.” After a pause, Han Ming said earnestly, “Your master will go save the world, please look after this store in the meantime!”


    Girl:”...?”


    Xiao Ai: “...”


    Tail: “...”
