Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

Emma was shocked by what was in his presence. He looked from one angle to the other. After looking at the scene for few minutes. He recovered from the initial shock. He took his first step like a robot. Shortly, his walk was smooth. He looked at everything with wide eyes.

Ha! Ha! Ha!

Emma laughed like a madman. "This is a goddam military secret base."

He took a deep breath. He tried to calm down from his exhilaration. Tears of happiness hang at the edge of his eyes. He looked at the transparent glass wall from top to bottom. He knocked the glass and grinned.

[Have you not see something like this before.]

"You won't understand"

[You bet, I won't understand.]

On the other side of the transparent glass wall, there were multiple computers with a giant screen at the front. 'This base is over 30 years old. This facility had existed before the new age.'

"Lily, what do you think could happen here?" Emma asked.

[How would I know? Don't ask me a stupid question.]

"Is it wrong to have a decent conversation with you?"

Emma stood at the front of the glass for a few seconds while his grin never disappeared. 'Let me check other places. There won't be only this room in the facility. There may be something else inside this facility.' Emma walked with caution.

After a few seconds of walking, Emma came across the restroom but everything was not functioning. Emma walked deeper and came across a door. He opened the door and saw something that gave him goosebumps.

There were two skeletons on top of each other while a rusty military knife was beside them. Emma saw holes on the wall while marks of fighting were everywhere in the room. 'What could happen here?' Emma thought.

He took a deep sigh and walked with a light step. He kicked the skeleton and jumped back.

[Why are you such a pussy? Those bones are long dead.]

"You won't understand." Emma picked up the rusty military knife. He used the knife to separate the skeletons. Seeing nothing out of ordinary.

He passed the skeleton while looking back frequently. At the end of the room was an enormous door. The door was slightly open. At the foot of the door was a bone that obstructs the door from closing. The door was an electric door with a self-closing mechanism.

Emma tried to open the door but found out the door was difficult to push open. 'Don't tell me you're going to stop me from going forward.' He furrowed and looked at the door in deep thought. He looked at the room but he found nothing useful. The room was empty except for those two skeletons.

[Get down and push. Lazybones.]

"I know, I know. I'm just trying to see if everything is alright."

[What could go wrong in this desolate place?]

"You never can tell" thinking about the tales surrounding the area. Emma shuddered. He shook his head to shake off the scary thought.

Emma pushed the door with everything in his power. Creak. The door only moves by an inch. While Emma was sweating profusely. 'Why the hell did this door so hard to move.' He yelled in his mind.

[How is it? The door is easy to push. Easy Pizzy. Hurry and let see what is on the other side.]

'Easy your father.'

Emma groaned and pushed the harder.

[Don't tell me this door is too difficult for you to push.]

"Me! I'm just warming up. Let me show how easy it pushing the door." Emma rolled his eyes and wanted to puke out blood. 'Why must you add to my burden? Can't you see am already trying my best?'

Emma groaned continuously. His clothe drench in sweat. Creak. The door makes another sound. Emma smile.

[See. With all the fat in your body. You can't push the door open. Do you realize how useless you are now? Hard work will take you so far but laziness will make you redundant. Work harder and never find yourself in this ridiculous situation again.]

Emma did not utter a word. He pushed the door like his life depend on it. After pushing the door for two hours. Emma had pushed there to a considerate distance that allows him to pass through the door.

He walked through the door and all the lights switch on automatically. Walking deeper, Emma came across many rooms and saw many skeletons but he was not surprised.

Emma came up to the server room. He saw rows of gigantic supercomputers. His jaw dropped. 'What did hell are they doing in this facility.'

He looked at the big room and noticed that the ventilation system was still working.

What!

[Don't be surprised. Something of this magnitude will have their separate ventilation system.]

Emma nodded. He continued his tour. Reaching the last room. There were many big pips, tanks, cables, and machines. Emma looked at everything trying not to be surprised anymore. He saw three enormous batteries. 'I guess this is why the ventilation and light are still working.'

After looking at everything. He discovered that those pips and cables came from the end of the room. The wall which the pips and cables came through was seriously secure with an unknown material that Emma couldn't identify.

"Surely, they took their security seriously," Emma murmured.

[Of course, they would. If not, the enemy could come through this channel.]

"Hmm, where will they go?"

[Probably to a power source.]

"You are right" Emma nodded.

Back at the main room. Emma sat on one chair inside the glass room. He looked at everything and was deep in thought.

"Do you think they will still work?"

[Probably. Since the ventilation system is still working. It would preserve those machines. While some may need a little repair.]

"Then I need to make them work."

[I have you decided what you wanted to do with this.]

"Yes."

[What]

"it's time I go back to my old dream. I have always wanted to understand the logic of how the AIs worked. But my debauchery life took me away from my dream. So with this, I can achieve it and probably reach the level I never imagine."

[Do you understand what it takes for your dream to come into reality.]

"Yes!"

[Computer science and technology is a versatile field. Are you ready for it?]

"I refuse to be useless again. I'm ready"

[Then….. you have my support.]
