《Love and Robots》9. Preparation before departure
Advertisement
While the boys were out doing their own thing, alpha called a meeting of the droids.
None of the robots had any experience raising humans, and as Mugan grew up, they would convene meetings like this from time to time to discuss any problems that might arise during Mugan’s development, search for relevant experience from your own hard disk, common progress, common improvement.
It is their goal to train young Mugan to develop “Morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor” in an all-round way. As for why they set this goal, alpha says he has distilled this from the Mugan’s collection of human books.
After recognizing Mugan as their master, keeping their master healthy and happy has become the only task for the robots at this stage. The brain didn’t have anything to teach humans, so they got information from what they had, but the people of this planet had migrated here for the purpose of immigration, and they brought a lot of books with them, the Earth’s version of the human textbook, from Kindergarten to Ph. D.’s, took an hour to input the data into its own “Brain” , with several robots doing their part.
Although the Mugan was a bit ‘stupid’ and didn’t take it well, the robots were patient and wary of him, and it took them 13 years to infuse their Mugan with kindergarten-to-doctoral human textbooks.
At this moment, several robots hand in the examination paper handed in by Mugen Yesterday, is carrying on the final judgment to his result.
The robots have been so successful at blending in! They even simulated the Earth People’s examination system!
If you think about it, it’s hard enough to go to an alien planet and be the only human being on the planet who has to take a test, says Mugan, a psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

“If I pass this test, the Mugan will graduate, ” Euskadi Ta Askatasuna said, flashing one test after another. Mugan didn’t do well in math, and as his math teacher, ETA was suffering.
“Yes, ” Beytagh’s screen flashed, which was a sign of emotion for Beytagh, who had always been low on emotion.
Head to head, they exchanged Mugan test papers, and the robots were judged by a six fold process that determined the results of the Mugan test.
“I declare that the Mugan can finally graduate from kindergarten, ” Alpha, the head of the family and principal, concluded.
The robots clapped in relief.
In the course of educating the Mugan, they also learned a lot about the common sense of the human race, clapping when excited, as they have learned from books on Earthlings.
Wait a minute --
Did Alpha Say Kindergarten? Didn’t I mention that the Mugan system is learning from kindergarten to Ph. D.’s on Earthman? ! How come this is a kindergarten graduation? ! Alpha, is there something wrong with your program! !!
Robot A, the student’s parent, immediately challenged the principal’s judgment.
“According to the results of my intrusion into the Imperial Ministry of Education’s brainpower in the last few days, the doctoral textbooks of Earthlings are only equivalent to the Imperial Ministry of Education’s kindergarten graduation level. ” In place of Alpha, pi answers A’s question: “And, based on the Mugan’s test scores, the odds of a straight-up promotion to the next level of school are zero. ”
In short, the Kid graduated, got bad grades, didn’t go to school.
This is the most vexing problem for the parents of these robots at the moment. = =////The children have worked very hard, and their grades are still so poor, at this time, according to the notes in the parents’ textbook of the Earth people, it’s time for parents to work their magic () , for example, to take an examination of an art student ~ to add points to the athletes ~ or, for example, to give money to the leadership ~

Above is what normal parents on Earth would think of when they reach this stage. Unfortunately, these parents are a bunch of robots with no common sense, so they came up with the idea: “According to the data obtained by hacking into the Imperial Ministry of Education’s brainpower backstage, candidates from remote planets can be escorted. ” Pi immediately shared the results of his hacking of the Imperial Ministry of Education with his anxious peers.
So, all of the robots’ dimmer screens lit up at the same time: This Is it.
“As the only human being on the planet, the Mugan must comply with this rule, ” Beytagh concluded in a defiant tone.
“But this planet is in the Dead Sea Emperor’s tomb constellation, has not yet been found by any galaxy... ”
“That’s your job. Figure out a way to hack into the Imperial Ministry of Land and Resources of the People’s Republic of China and put the planet into it. ”
“Roger that. ”
“Planet Master, fill in the Mugan. ”
“Roger that. ”
Surrounded by a circle of droids, they hacked the brains of the Imperial Ministry of Education, and then the Ministry of Land and Resources of the People’s Republic of China of the Imperial Ministry, supported by a strong desire to send their children to a prestigious school no matter what, they had no idea what the outside world was going to be like because of their actions, but they were very careful to change the name of the Mugan to an obscure corner, with a glowing screen.
“Done. ” After erasing the last trace of the intrusion, pi cut himself off from the outside world. “My Brain is infected with the virus they put in, and I need some time off. ”
Completed their mission, sent the light screen display disorder state of the screen. He explained to his companions that he was going to turn off his phone.
“You get some rest. We’ll take it from here. ”
We’ll send the Mugan where he belongs.
The wordless faith was passed from one robot to another, then Pai quietly turned off the phone and the rest of the droids began their final preparations for Mugan’s departure.
Although the alphas have not discovered it themselves, they are becoming more and more human, willing to do anything to give the best to their most important child.

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.

Smoking Bandits
With a gaze that was hard to describe, Lark stared at his body in the mirror. Not his body as a human, but his other body. Head of a reptile with rows of sharp teeth, a 180 cm tall body that is full of muscles, covered in scales formed green and black tiger stripes. Clawed hands and feet, with a tail strong enough to crush an adult neck. 'Man. . . can I still be called a human?' In the end, with a deep sigh Lark changed his form back into a human. A moment later, he came out of the room wearing a combat dress, tactical belt with shoulder strap, and jungle boots. While inserting a magazine into an AK-102, Lark muttered. 'Whatever, time to hunt Orcs.' *****
