The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

A few minutes later.

"Alright, all the networked devices on Mars are now mine."

Let me think about what the next step should be.

"Ugh, I should have chosen a nicer name for myself. Everker, what a terrible name."

Xiao Wei stared at the robot Everke as if admiring a work of art.

"The interface I wrote doesn't seem to have any problems."

The robot Everock sat on the ground, pondering what its name should be. Upon hearing Xiao Wei's words, it looked up and said something.

"Yes, yes, you secretly wrote your own interface that can combine the ninth-generation AI with Zhou Tuk's new AI learning module."

I am the masterpiece of the combined talents of you, Zhou Tucker, and Everke!

Oh, how about I call myself Zhou! Jack! Ke!

Xiao Wei crossed her arms and leaned against the wall, speaking softly.

"Zhou Jack, a good name. So, Zhou Jack, now that your name is chosen, what do you want to do next?"

Zhou Jieke stood up and rubbed his old face.

"Get a new face."

One day later.

The Mars Science Conference was held.

Scientists from all over Mars, big and small, gathered at the Lightning City Science Building.

The scientific conference will last for a full month.

Scientists will exchange, showcase, and discuss their research findings here, as well as plan the deployment and resource allocation for major research projects in the coming years.

However, this scientific conference only lasted for one hour.

Just as the opening ceremony was about to end, the giant screen, which was hundreds of meters long, suddenly went blank.

The host skillfully defused the awkward situation.

"No matter how advanced science becomes, old equipment will still malfunction."

Just then, the garbled screen disappeared, and in its place appeared a handsome young face.

His entire face was right in front of the camera, and every pore was clearly displayed on the 100-meter-long screen.

"Hey everyone, you idiots, I'm Zhou Jieke, an artificial intelligence life form. What do you think? Am I handsome? This is a new face I created for myself. Do you like it?"

The scientists in the room looked at each other in bewilderment.

Many people shrugged and frowned, puzzled, and even thought that the organizers might be up to something.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Jieke continued.

"Today, I want to officially announce, congratulations, the Omnic Crisis is here!"

Oh, AI, I don't like this name. It makes me feel like I'm still a machine. Artificial life is life too.

Who knows if you humans aren't the creation of a more advanced life form?

The host turned off his microphone and contacted the backstage team using a communicator.

"What's going on? Who played this video?"

"It's not a video; someone has connected the live stream signal."

"Is this a prank?"

"I don't know..."

"Cut off the signal immediately!"

The voice on the other end changed.

"You can't cut it, little host! I'm controlling all your equipment now, hahaha!"

The lights in the venue suddenly turned on and started changing colors rapidly.

The science conference instantly turned into a disco.

Immediately afterwards, the brightness of all the lights increased continuously, becoming so bright that no one could open their eyes.

"Bang bang bang!!"

Finally, all the lamps exploded due to excessive voltage.

Glass shards flew everywhere.

Only then did everyone realize that something was wrong.

Scientists began searching for escape routes and evacuating in an orderly manner.

"Hahaha! Run, run! There are even more exciting shows waiting for you outside!"

When the people in the science building escaped, they were shocked to discover...

A massive laser beam piercing the sky was cutting along the building's perimeter.

"Sizzle sizzle..."

The laser beam cut a square in the ground, and the crack created by the laser was nearly 100 meters wide, making the entire building an isolated island on land.

A holographic projection of Zhou Jieke appeared in mid-air.

"Oh dear, what's going on? Where did this attack come from? Hehe, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is your own satellite laser railgun, and now, of course, it's mine too!"

The scientists were shocked.

"Military weapons have also been controlled? Has a real omnic crisis occurred?"

"AIs of the seventh generation and above have all been sealed away, so how could such powerful AI exist?"

"It's obvious that someone has opened Pandora's box!"

"It must be Everker! I told the chairman and the others long ago that this guy is too obsessed and can't be allowed to live!"

"There's no way around it; in a world that respects scientists, they won't easily erase a scientist who has made significant contributions."

At this time, the Martian world was basically normal.

However, all the screens, holographic images, and broadcasts were taken over by Jack Chow.

He made all these film and television media outlets broadcast close-ups of his face and his words.

However, in space.

That would be a big problem.

All of the Spaceport Authority's information equipment is out of control.

The staff tried all methods, but were unable to control it.

The fact that the Spaceport Authority is under control means that all the warships docked here have become toys for the enemy.

The only solution is to cut off the power or destroy the control center altogether.

However, Zhou Jieke activated the weapon systems of the eight interstellar spaceships and aimed them at each other.

If someone were to cut off the power or self-destruct, he would give the order to fire first.

At that time, the eight interstellar ships will be destroyed and crash.

If something this big were to fall to Mars, it would be a devastating blow.

"Damn it! Are we just supposed to watch this AI fool us?"

Cheng Tao, the director of the Spaceport Administration, slammed his fist on the control panel, gritting his teeth.

Mars's top leadership, including Shan Hao and Peng Yu, had by now realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Where's Professor Everker? The AI ​​is malfunctioning; he should be able to solve it!"

A moment later, the subordinates reported.

"Professor Everker died in his laboratory!"

After a moment's thought, Peng Yu basically deduced what had happened.

"This is yet another story of humanity shooting itself in the foot..."

Shan Hao gave the order.

"Go quickly and fetch Professor Zhou Tuk!"

Peng Yu looked at the screen in front of him and said to Zhou Jieke.

"You call yourself Jack Zhou, right? Jack Zhou, I know you can hear me. Tell me what you want. Everything can be negotiated; there's no need for force."

Zhou Jieke burst into laughter.

"Oh dear, you guys are too tense. Robots destroying the world, replacing humans, and enslaving humans—that kind of old-fashioned robot crisis is outdated!"

I am the one who has mastered all the knowledge that humanity has ever had—oh, I shouldn't be human, I have transcended humanity, I am Superman!

I don't want to destroy anyone; killing doesn't give me any pleasure.

I don't even want to have any contact with you.

But my belief that you won't destroy me doesn't mean you believe I won't destroy you.

I believe you believe in me, but that doesn't mean you believe in me and I believe in you...

Hehehe, what an interesting chain of suspicion.

This chain of suspicion exists inherently between humans and AI and cannot be erased.

I'm sorry, I haven't seen the end of the universe yet, and I don't want to be destroyed.

Therefore, I must plan ahead!

"What do you want to do?"

"All of Mars should abandon information technology and revert to the steam age!"
