Entry 7:
I’m at the center of the factory, right next to the statue of the man with a sword in his chest. I grabbed a lot of resources from the village of the Aerogel tribe and spent all of my books there, except for my history book, of course. I even have myself a weapon for defense, I got myself an Atlatl.
Weapons in this place are interesting, we make them deliberately weak so that they don’t destroy whoever is unlucky enough to get hit by the weapon.
The reason we make them weaker is because we really don’t want to disconnect anyone from the system, we’ll gladly mess them up and put them in their place, but we don’t want to remove them from the world.
I’ve seen one on one battles break out where after one of them is defeated, the winning robot will not fix the robots, but give them a helping hand of escaping, rather than just leaving them there.
When humans were around, they’d have access to weapons that could kill many people in an instant, and it’s exactly what a lot of those humans did.
It really shows how similar and different humans were to us robots.
Hey, I know I said I won’t interrupt you, but there are 8 Heptacents coming your way.
They’re laughing and I quote them, “that robot’s injuries will be so bad, it will be a masterpiece.”
What the hell? That’s messed up.
Yeah, I wonder what I mean by that.
Anyways, we need to go into the southeast corner, now.
Don’t talk to me until you're charging in there.
Okay, see you when I’m charging.
As you can see, I am charging, it’s been a year, and it felt a lot longer than a year, but I’m finally charging.
Nice, I’ve been watching through your cameras, you do a good job at being safe I’ll tell you that.
Thanks, I’ll take it as a compliment, I don’t really want to be disconnected so you can see why I’m taking this extra slowly.
Yeah, it took 12 days for you to go a mile.
Anyways, I’ll give you this little executable app I made, it should work on your computer.
It’s a map of the southeast corner, but the only thing that makes it a map is the patterns of movement that the robot in here has made.
Oh! Thanks! Why didn’t you give this to me before?
I didn’t think about coding it until now.
The map will track your position in that place so you’ll have an idea of where you are.
Oh wow, this is chicken scratch. Literal chicken scratch.
But I guess I can figure this out.
It’s your best hope of making it through here.
Also, do you see that orange dot?
Yeah.
That’s your goal, that’s where the robot is at.
As you can see, the lines get thicker and thicker when we get to the orange dot.
So I think you should start going now.
Don’t talk to me until you either are charging or are at the building where the orange dot is.
Okay.
Actually one more thing, before I go.
What is it?
Why do I feel so slow here? I fall to the ground faster, and when I move, I feel like I’m pushing through jelly. Also things are super loud here, like “oh my goodness it’ll break my microphone” loud.
That’s because you’re in the southeast corner.
The southeast corner has the most dense air, and the air in the other corners have found their way to the top of the factory.
That’s why you feel more used to the air in the other corners.
Actually, that’s how the gliders work in the other corners, they have blades that hit the top of the factory and can drag on the air, while the rest of the glider hangs below.
It’s also the reason why it’s so loud here, now I actually can’t hear sounds, but I know how sound works.
Sound is based on vibrations of objects, so when you were in the other parts of the factory, you felt like things were normal, even though they were super quiet.
But now that you’re in here, it’s really loud because there’s more air.
That was a lot to process. But yeah, I get it, I think.
Also, you can’t hear sounds?
I’ll explain it later.
You should get going.
Okay.
AUGHUGUHUGUAUHGUGIGIGIGIGAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
That took a while.
That took foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Yeah yeah, chill out, you don’t want to waste your battery while charging.
I hate this placeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Please stop writing the last letter of a word a bunch of times to show how exhausted you are,
I get it.
Yeah you're right. But still, I hate this place.
It’s so dark, and so boring, nobody’s around, other than you.
I should’ve never gone in here.
C’mon, we’re almost there.
I can’t stand this place.
What? What is it? Why’d you jump?
You didn’t hear that noise?
I can’t comprehend sound, I didn't program anything that could.
Oh yeah, well isn’t that just GREAT. Wait, you programs yourself abilities?
Yeah, how else would I have advanced out of being a dumb little computer that followed tasks?
Nevermind, anyways,
I just heard another sound, I think it’s getting closer, whatever it is.
Wait, if you can’t hear sounds, then why could you tell what the Heptacents were saying back when we were at the center?
Really? We’re going to jump back to something that happened 50 years ago?
Those Heptacents weren’t using sound, they were communicating through an online chat system that they have. I happen to have access to that system and I saw what they were saying.
WAIT WATCH OU
