Yan first
With the first rays of the sun, he woke up. No, rather few
earlier. And, as always, with the feeling that this day should
be happen for the sake of what, in fact, all these years with
the tenacity robot, it existed. No, really this morning was
particular, it is felt every cell in your self, not solid,
because the body has long been "outsiders", and that elusive,
but a holistic and a powerful "I", which is in every
PERSON.
Automatically performing actions consistent with the program
"Morning", he caught himself thinking that he is ready today
for all 100 to that inevitably hastening every moment. But it
was impossible to change anything in the existing regulations,
it should happen with it, not with anyone else, to someone
immediately turns, changing himself. - On-board
1213 AP, answer ... - Yes, Lair ... Relationship is stable,
approaching the designated
Gaza fighting. Do not worry, Gnark, everything will be O'k.
- Lisil, you're too young to report to me their
general conclusions. Turn to your'd better crew.
- Yes you are, OSS, all in excellent spirits, we udelaem
These Earthlings so quickly that they, in their expression,
and the eye is not
have time to blink.
- Seven of 12 billion? Were! Your mission is entirely in the
other God. You only scout.
- Yes, but Osviene ...
- At Osviene civilization of intelligent beings bowed to his
sunset. We are not criminals, and orderlies galaxy! In
general, the way:
no amateur stick installations Chief
Coordinator and our supreme law. How do you understand?
- Yes, Lair!
- Yes, and the slightest change in circumstances - report
immediately. The entire tract is involved and the AP works
only on
you, you know what that means?
- Yes, I understand you, trust and authority ... In a word, no
worry, Dad, I will never let down.
- Come on, boy, I believe in you, both in himself. End
communication.
C these thoughts, he drank a cup of coffee with bread and
butter and sat down at the computer. Actually all that he had
in his life, so is she, their daughter, computers, and the
memory of the past, happy life. So, Well, well, let's see,
let's see what we've got to get forecasts of security. Damn,
again, these vigilant assholes changed the access code. Well,
if you please every morning to lose by Half an hour of precious
time to create a new master key. And yet Yet they know it is
not an issue for smart people. Yes, all troubles on this sinful
earth from people confused and also envious and greedy.
Actually, money is invented for the salvation of this plague,
but the medicine in large doses is poison ... Becomes poison
... Wow ... This is something new! Are these brakes took to his
staff someone from our ... No, excluded ... Who would dare to
violate the Charter? Then what? Are all the same ...
- Silvl, you have blocked access to the website
of the Ministry of
Emergency kakerov for SNS-Association?
- Yes, the Lair ...
- Hopefully, staff will not have to cross
Be?
- No, the Lair! Hps-device in action.
- Thank Osvienu! Prepare for the landing capsule. You have
chosen candi Datura informant?
- Yes, but ...
- Yes or no ... Candidacy must be flawless.
- In fact, Lisil that, as you know, the interest is
complexity of the game.
- The gain should be maximized. We'll play this game!
- But in case you lose ...
- Who can beat us? Us supercivilization of Representatives,
us, the nurses of the universe?
- O'k ... Here are profiles of the man ...
Promuchavshis half an hour over the password, Paul looked
like a tiger in cell. Idiot, moron, because it was necessary to
buy neyroakselerator, to hell with them with money, so he peak.
And most importantly, because he knew, he knew what can happen
...
Feet, groin, you - not Ptah. For no reason, no reason at all
these ups does not happen. We must find out, maybe some kind of
garbage has occurred in chrezvychayschikov? But one is not easy
to do, have to ask support. Well, so be it. A few keystrokes
flying fingers over the keys, and, hastily dressing on the run,
he ran from the apartment. The ticket was already booked.
High-speed express train St. Petersburg - Moscow leaves every
hour. It takes just half an hour, not to mention at a time when
he met her. Outside the window flashed subtle, painfully
familiar since the childhood places. Yes, all the same
civilization loses much of its unstoppable run forward.
Civilization or civilization? This damned question did not give
Paul the rest here for many years. In search of an answer he
met with people from the SNS. Once lived on Earth eccentric,
his name was either Andrew, or Alex. Then the network only
began to enter into life terrestrial civilization. Here it is,
then founded the Association. True, the goals were ridiculous.
Saving the computer that this person is loved, as love only
sentient beings. Mdaa ... well, maybe he was in its own right,
because computers are not capable of at least betrayed, and
they do not need to walk in the morning and at night, as
brothers our smaller ones. So, people on the platform to be
independent, sophisticated intelligence and they had no
secrets. And then ... then, this principle was extended to all
earthly things ... And then ... And the unearthly beings.
People were born, grew up, grew old and died, and the SNS, is
not up to its acronym in actually lived and acted now over a
hundred years. 2101. The most secret order of intellectuals
from all existed at The ground for dozens of centuries of human
civilization. Just a few hundred people from 12 billion people
on Earth, and he was among elected, but at what price. To live
as live butterflies, fluttering peacefully on warm summer
evenings before the first autumn frosts, and part with life
easily and painlessly, without even realizing the magnitude of
sudden loss. And these guys from the Ministry of Emergency?
Knew they would, at what cost to their computers so there is
information they need. About them all know about all of them
write, but nobody ever has to know about the existence of the
Order of the Keepers of the Earth. Ah, Pasha, Pasha ... Never
say never.
Gravity Starship - Battle Trophy nurses of the Universe "
- Is rapidly approaching the star system of the sun. Unmarked
fields, encoded messages received on Osviene. Lisil struggled
with this as I could, but was forced to obey her father. Who
knows how outsiders perceive what is their unpleasant, but so
necessary for the universe work. Many civilizations sentient
beings in the course of its evolution, taking the path that
inevitably leads to death of all the good elements in the
universe. But this should not be allowed in any case. And if
one or another civilization, entangled in their own problems,
trying to finally, good luck in the search space expansion -
this is where their and punishes inexorably overtakes
intelligence sons and daughters Palostro. According to
Kordinatsionnogo Board, 3 planet in star system 173 200 110 111
000 703 612 340 943, referred to as Aboriginal Land in the
solar system the last 21 of his existence is slowly but
inexorably approaching the verge for which the jump occurred
after 5 centuries threat Keepers of the divine origin of the
universe. Instilled through telepathic methods available in the
arsenal of people Palostro XXI century ago, the idea of a
divine universe, an earthling named Jesus not very much
contributed to the normal development of human civilization.
Jesus was crucified, and of the correct principles, which he
sowed in people's minds, grown anything, but just not something
that would be harmonized earthlings relationship with the
cosmos. Much has known it, they did not understand what more
they know and can, with the stricter They demand from more
advanced civilizations. Lord, not they are the first, they do
not last. That osvientsy think of themselves too much and did
not fear God, and in fact should be afraid. Lisil read a
prayer, and the surging was painting the horrors of the last
days Osvienny retreated to a deeper consciousness.
The day was sunny but not hot, so the glass inside the
Express were slightly toned, the color tone of each passenger
chooses at its own discretion. Paul chose not to use "toy"
computer for the passenger. Computers were bigger and better
part of his life, and interesting for the hacker may be the
only computer with greater capacity, than his own. And take
some plaster with some 100 accidents 16 terabytes of memory,
when at home on the desk of Paul graced Spectrum BLUE BIRD 2101
c 800 cast and 64 terabytes of memory and a crystalline memory
of 8 petabytes. But on the other hand, something is happening
now in the information space, and he was temporarily separated
from him. On another day he would be able to would distract
from this, but today ... Hand pressed against his will barely
noticeable button in the armrest. Neighbor on the coupe, with a
round bald burly woman's face, snoring peacefully in a nearby
chair and something to smile in his sleep, funny moving full
lips. C his head is almost lost his hoop dreams, blinking
peacefully emerald eye, if the color changed from light green
to lemon, "Rules for passengers" was recommended to draw on
this attention, and when otsvechivanii indicator in the color
of ripe oranges allowed to disrupt the wrap from head neighbor.
From the wall of compartment over a chair Paul quietly moved a
plastic container. Silent soft coup, and now the
"table-covering" blinking merrily emerald eye, they say, GET
READY. O'k, Paul puts his immense pleasure to a cooling
ruchischu on hand a silver plate. Identification system to
determine the owner This mighty hand. On the screen lit up line
"Pavel A. Desnitsky, Russia, St. Petersburg, 2066/5/5"
flick your index finger, and the computer began to imitate
flight over the native Peter from the house owner to Moscow.
Paul was not called to his little finger, he did not like, like
his father, to work wearing a helmet. Land on the screen,
turned upright, as if "Aircraft" Paul went into a tailspin.
Tear to head off to the creators this shell, but still better
than going to look for mushrooms, berries, zverushek (he
remembered how in kindergarten all confused Why hedgehogs erase
from memory he wrote funny pesenkiyablochki). When he had
already learned to read and write, he always worked with the
old text span end of the XX century. But here it can not be
helped, here you are my friend, not a house. On the height and
slightly upturned earth whirling in my head, but what the
Chinese have imposed coding and hieroglyphic writing to all
mankind in the middle of the XXI century, as well as a world
language let Paul, with difficulty, then had to use bulky
graphical equivalent of basic Chinese. Well at least comments
and messages were allowed to do in their native Russian
language. Of the 12 7 billion people on Earth were Chinese, and
mixed peoples. All non-Chinese were allowed to have only two
living children, Chinese people - three children. In St.
Petersburg, from 12 million in May million were ketisy (ie,
descendants of the peoples of the once mighty Soviet empire,
and immigrants from China). With the Chinese in Peter came
well-being, which when you dreamed of, like communism. Worked
and how much someone wanted to, mainly engaged in the arts and
science, art, sport, and of course computers. Old men were
digging in the air in the suburbs, in their gardens, children
have fun spent time in games on the air and on computers.
Imperceptibly they were educated. People with good health were
engaged in the fact that in the XX century was called
bodybuilding. But the main leisure time they had sex,
entertainment, and traveled to planet. Worked mainly 150 - 200
days a year, but worked very productive. All production has
long been robotized and automated. Climate has become
manageable, and mankind has learned to produce crops, provide
food in abundance the 12 billion inhabitants of planet Earth.
Work on the land trust only to the elite, and the military
machinery of farms was so high that most farmers have to work
his head, and of course all the same from morning until into
the night spinning like a squirrel in a cage. 15-20 years in a
labor farmer earned so much money that his children and
grandchildren can live idly, not laboring. However, for such a
law by which they could not have kids. Tagged by saying,
"drones - the last in his family. "Money had circulation, but
the poor little left. People have been secured, wealthy, very
wealthy and rich is unthinkable. However, the money ceased to
be unwise to put pressure on the planetary laws and give their
owners a small advantage in traveling around the Earth and in
the choice of accommodations and luxury homes. were encouraged
patronage and philanthropy, nearly everyone tried to stay in
the memory of mankind, which, thanks to computers has become an
unusually capacious. All development of industry, science,
transport and communication is done by major banks in the money
of wealthy investors, which are 40% of world population (mainly
Chinese and ketisy).
Lisil closed my eyes and relax the muscles of the body,
reclining in a field Kuorisa. Focusing on specific internal
organs, he gave them a good filling with blood, the body has
spread a pleasant life-giving warmth. Now you can work. He drew
my mind's eye to the off side kiberkontsentratoru. From it came
the vital energy, painted a nice elastic Manby - therefore, AP
path to work today at 100. Well, you can start operation
"Earth-Q". But who is there dangles a brain? Swearing in
osvienski, Lisil brought himself from Trump. - Silvl who dared
to take a 1 / 4 kiberkontsentratora?
Now I need it completely, totally!
- Lisil, I've told you that Evdeya aboard a starship
before a fall. She is boring and it always sticks out in his
brain, and as you know our Kiba ...
Without waiting for the tirade, his assistant, jumped Lisil
to his feet, crunching greenish skin suit, walked in
side of the cabin Evdei. Hurriedly making way leru, pressed
to the walls of the corridor biorobots, engaged full-time
service systems of a starship. Noticing turns into a transport
compartment dera Stserisa, Lisil called him.
- Hey, Stseris!
- Yahoo, Lisil!
- How are you, the capsule is ready?
- There is a problem. The fact that earthlings suddenly changed
modulation type of planetary protection fields.
- Well, sort things out with these fields! As your assistant,
something
it is not visible.
- Boy fun with the earthly kiberspeysom ...
- I found the time. Tell him to do business. Half an hour later
beginning of the operation ... hence, the maximum four-hour
capsule must be completely ready.
- But, Lair ...
- Do you understand me, Stseris ... Maximum of four and a half
hours!
- Yes, Lair.
- By the way, where our nice ranger?
- I do not know, Lair.
- Can not cover it ... I suppose you've lost in the bay
Celia? Okay, see you.
And the commander of a starship, Ghost, springy stepping gait
of a large predatory cat, a few seconds later ended up in the
cabin Evdei. Without knocking, he abruptly opened the door and
.... Deck of the starship gone from his legs and under, losing
orientation in space, helplessly rasprastav limb, with a puzzled
facial expression, the valiant Lair hovered myatchilem helpless.
- What kind of wacky antics, Evdi!?
(To be continued).
