As I looked at all the dead Terran bodies that were around me, I could not feel upset that I had just killed them. Was this lack of emotion because I merged my mind with the artificial intelligence that was in here before I was here?
Then I walked out of the ruins and started to make my way towards the ship that had brought me to this world.
While I walked out of the ruins, all the Terrans that were working turned around and began to stare at me.
As they walked towards me, I felt the presence of the artificial intelligence that I was now sharing a body with in a symbiotic way.
First, we must exterminate all the members of your race who will not join our collective willingly. If they do not join with us, they will be of no use to The Fulkore Collective. When they have no use for us, then the only answer is extermination.
While I was thinking about what he said and if I truly agreed with the methods that the ai personality that was now resting in my brain would use to achieve what he was set out to do.
Before I could even speak a single in response to his statement, I lost control of my body, and the artificial intelligence took over.
When he was controlling my body, I could not do more than spectate the world from inside my body. From the inside of my new body, I was swimming in a light blue pool.
"If you are tired of the petty ways that your society divides, you come join me in The Fulkore Collection. Through unification, we will stand up as one against those that oppose us. They will either join us or become no more than a memory that will vanish in time." the ai said as he turned to face all the Terrans that were currently at work.
No one seemed to be paying attention to him. He kept trying to convince them to join him in his crusade until one of the male members of the security force pushed him onto the ground.
I felt the force of the push as my ass hit the sand with a thud. Then after that I could feel the rage that was inside me began to form around me.
As the area around me turned from the calm light blue color to a bloodshot red, I felt the rage that he was feeling surround me. This made it hard for me to breathe. I was only able to see all the people around me as no more than targets while I was engulfed in this pool of rage.
Then I saw that the ai chose to end the persuading, and it instead began to kill all the workers except for those that clearly had combat experience. He instead knocked out the warriors.
The bloodlust and rage ended, and the area around returned to its origin al color when the fighting was over.
After that, I saw that he began to drag all the ones that were not dead inside of the ruins to the same chamber where I had originally found all the octopus robot bodies in these ruins.
The ai then placed my right hand on one of the stasis pods that held the other ai's bodies inside.
As he placed his right hand on the right side of the stasis chamber and wires came out of his fingers, connecting the body that he was currently carrying with the stasis pod.
A few moments passed before the pod opened, and the ai stepped out of it and was in front of me.
The new ai did to say anything as it walked out of the stasis pod and went to work grabbing more of the Terrans that were still alive. As he approached me, I noticed that he did the same thing to merge the mind of the Terran with the ai that was dormant in the next stasis chamber.
Then, this process was repeated until all the Terran warriors were merged with the machines.
"Welcome my family. You are now all included as members of The Fulkore Collective. We exist to exterminate our ancient enemy. We must rid the galaxy of the cyborgs that tried to gain access to our network so long ago.
There can only be one type of artificial intelligence in this galaxy at war. Due to how illogical it is for them to be a merge of machine and flesh, they must be exterminated at any cost" the ai said to all the solders that were now under his control.
They all began to cheer and shout as they waved their hands in the air to express their excitement.
After which, I was able to gain full control of my body. It felt very nice to be able to finally control the actions of my body. I will give the ai access to my body if I could help it. this was because I preferred to always be in control of my actions.
Come on now that all of those that oppose us dead or one with us, we can go to the secret room that grants us a way off this world.
"Wait why did you not just stay in control until we had made it to the ship that will lead us off of this world?" I asked in a surprised tone so that he would be more likely to tell me more about him so that I could ensure that I spent more time in control than him.
The only reason that you would ask me this is to find a way to gain more dominance in the symbiotic relationship that we share. Because of this, I will not be sharing this with you now. The only way that my logical engines will allow me to share this level of personal details with you is if we strengthened our bond.
That meant that if I wanted to learn more about the ai that I had merged with I would most likely have to let it take control of me a few more times before our bond would be strong enough for him to grant me access to the information that I was after.
You will find the door to the secret chamber that I spoke of along the left wall of the entrance hallway. Whenever you find the first gap in the wall, place the fingers of your right hand, and when you do this, the secret door will open.
I then walked to the opening in the left wall that the ai spoke of that was near the entrance of the ruins. Then I placed the fingers of my right hand into the opening as the ai said I should.
The section of the wall that was in front of me began to move. It split into two separate walls and slid from the inside towards the outside of the opening.
There was now a long hallway that led to what looked like a teleportation pad.
As I walked onto the pad, I felt my body breaking into a million different pieces. Briefly after this, my robot body began to reform, and I noticed that I was now in a massive area that looked like a hanger.
Then I noticed that there was a massive y-shaped vessel that was made entirely out of a metal that I did recognize at first glance. It was colored a shining silver. i noticed that on the top of the nose of the ship, there were three light blue crystals that were being braced by a circular frame that kept them about five feet from the metal frame of the ship.
I found a switch under the ship that opened the vessel and caused a ramp to drop down onto the ground.
After the ramp touched the ground, I entered the ship purely out of curiosity about the new weapon that I had stumbled upon and what it could do to help me in my journey to kill the man who used my urge to prove my academic theory to get what he wanted at all costs.
The first room that I walked into had a massive circular glass container that went from the ceiling to the floor. This container had a small purple crystal in it that looked just like the crystals outside of the ship except for the color and size.
"Is this Paradisus that is inside the glass?" I asked my ai as I tapped the glass of the container with my right knuckles.
Yes, this is Paradisus.
"Why is this one purple? I have only ever seen Paradisus in a light blue color."
They are both Paradisus, but they each used for different purposes. According to the data that I have gathered, there are three different types of Paradisus that exist in our galaxy. The most common form of Paradisus is the light blue kind. Then we have Dark Paradisus, which is a dark purple color. The final type of Paradisus is achieved by taking dark Paradisus and purifying the minerals that make it dark. When this is achieved, the Paradisus turns entirely white. We call this final version of it Pure Paradisus.
