Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 42 Schwarzkopf and Clara

"Is it simple?" March 7th listened to Yunzhi's mutterings, momentarily stunned. "Wouldn't it be even harder to persuade a robot that only recognizes calculation results?"

The calculation result is generally fixed, and it would be very difficult to change it, since it involves modifying the data.

Schwarzroth must have investigated a lot of data to arrive at a certain conclusion.

In this situation, is it really that easy to change things?

"At least I think it's perfectly fine."

Yun was very confident that disrupting a robot's calculations was much easier than persuading a stubborn person.

Thinking about Cocolia from Honkai Impact 3rd, and considering the possibility of going up to persuade the Great Guardian, Yunzhi felt that it would be easier to bully the robot.

"But the problem now is, how do we get an audience with this big shot, Schwarzkopf?"

Danheng raised this very practical question.

Although they say Schwarzrod is entrenched in the hearth, no one can guarantee he'll always be there.

"Go check out your newly discovered mineral deposit. The appearance of these robots is no coincidence. Perhaps there will be a surprise there."

The appearance of these robots seems more like a way to prevent the conflict from escalating.

There will at least be someone in charge nearby.

But to Yunzhi and the others' surprise, they actually met a person in charge.

But it's cuter than I expected.

------------------

"Mr. Schwarzlo, this is why everyone started fighting..."

A soft, gentle voice drifted on the wind from afar.

Yun was taken aback and immediately noticed the sound coming from the wind.

"This mine can sustain Belloborg's energy supply for at least 231 days, plus or minus seven days," another mechanical voice said. "But you summoned me here, not for these ores, Clara. What are your true intentions?"

"Yes, many homeless people and miners have been injured as a result. Mr. Schwarz, can't you help them?" It seemed to be a child, probably a little older than Hook.

The mechanical voice continued to reply: "I have stopped the conflict between the two camps and temporarily taken control of the mining area. There will be no large-scale conflict for at least thirty days."

As the robot finished speaking, Yunzhi, the fastest of them all, had already arrived at the location of the mine.

However, upon hearing what the robot had just said, Yunzhi couldn't help but complain: "What a brilliant idea! As long as there's a stronger enemy, there will naturally be no conflict."

How similar it is to the Immortal Boat Alliance back then! The struggle between commoners and nobles—if it weren't for the Jin people's rebellion and Yuanqiao's loss of control, they don't know how long they would have continued fighting.

"Ah, it seems I haven't disturbed you."

Despite having a lot to complain about, Yun Zhi swallowed back the history of the Immortal Boat Alliance, thinking that the two people in front of him probably didn't know about it.

It was changed to another sentence.

At the same time, take another look at the two people in front of you.

A tall robot, and another... a little girl in a red dress.

For a moment, Yunzhi didn't know whether to call her the little match girl or Little Red Riding Hood.

"Hello, I am Yunzhi from the Starry Sky Train."

"Hello, my name is Clara."

Clara reflexively replied, "This is Mr. Schwarz."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Clara."

Both sides fell silent.

Schwarz's single, red-glowing eye was devoid of emotion, yet Yunzhi always felt as if she were seeing the Venerable Master Boshi.

Bo Shizun also has a big red light bulb.

Clara looked back at Schwarzkopf, then at Yunzhi, but said nothing.

How embarrassing...

Yun Zhi really felt embarrassed.

Why did you suddenly use a textbook-style self-introduction just now?

Let's break this awkward silence!

"I just heard you say 'calculation,' right?"

Fortunately, the awkwardness didn't last long.

Yun Zhi smiled, a slight smirk playing on his lips: "Numbers are the foundation connecting all things. I've seen the most powerful computer in the celestial sphere. How do you compare to it?"

The most powerful computer in the celestial sphere = Bo Shizun.

Schwarzschild couldn't read Yun's mind, but Clara unhesitatingly defended her Mr. Schwarzschild:

"Mr. Schwarz is also very capable."

"Yeah?"

Yun Zhi looked on with disbelief: "Then, Mr. Schwarz, are you able to calculate my origins?"

They started by giving him a big challenge.

It's not surprising to have complete confidence in your calculations, but what if you introduce variables?

What else can be calculated from that?

Clara tilted her head: "Huh? Isn't big brother from the upper district?"

Basically, everyone assumed they came from the upper class because their clothing didn't resemble that of people from the lower class.

But Schwarzrod denied this answer: "No, he came from outer space."

"You got one point right."

Yun Zhi continued smiling: "Anything else?"

The robot fell silent, seemingly evaluating the various functions of the cloud.

Yunzhi didn't urge him, and waited for him to see.

The suffocating silence didn't last long, as the three little ones and Earthfire caught up with them.

At a glance, one could see Yunzhi confronting the giant robot.

His partner immediately rushed over and stood beside him.

"Zhi, what's the situation now?"

Dan Heng held a long spear, his whole body tense, staring at the imposing robot in front of him.

Yun patted him on the shoulder: "This is Schwarz. It's alright, I was just testing his computing power."

Let's see what he can figure out for himself.

Analysis results: Not affiliated with the "Earthfire" organization. Background: Unknown. Category: Unknown information.

Finally, Schwarzlo gave his answer.

And at the end, it added: "Suspected to belong to an organization called 'Starry Sky Train'."

Yunzhi: ^ー^.

Schwarzlo: ...

He was silent.

Yunzhi: ?

and then?

He thought it that way, and he asked it aloud.

"That's it?"

Perhaps due to their isolation from the world, the robots' database isn't that comprehensive.

Schwarzko nodded: "Yes, you're not one of Belloberg's people."

"Mr. Schwarz is a robot created by the builders of Belloberg? You look quite old."

Yun skipped over the question of his origins and instead inquired about other aspects of his past.

A red light flashed in Schwarz's eye: "That's a story from a long time ago."

It seems you don't want to reminisce about the past?

"Speaking of which, you seem to have always had complete faith in my calculations?"

Schwarzko nodded calmly: "That's right. According to the calculations, the lower level is the most suitable living space, while the upper level is no longer suitable for habitation."

This can be seen from the expansion of the rift and the intensification of wind and snow.

"Then, recalculate it here, adding variables."

Yun raised his hand.

A fragment radiating murderous intent floated in his hand.

The murderous aura caused those around to take a step back, and those unfamiliar with Yun Zhi became wary.

Yunzhi ignored them.

Instead, he looked at Schwarz and said coldly, "In your calculations, add a variable—the variable of the Star God."
