Dr. Hollister suddenly sat back on the swivel chair and took out a revolver. Bang! The shot hit a surveillance screen on the wall! A big hole appeared on the screen. Electric sparks flashed, and the image disappeared completely.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The screens were destroyed one by one, very neatly, from left to right, from top to bottom. Click. The bullets were empty. Hollister took out a box of .41 bullets from his pocket and scattered them on the coffee table. He then picked them up one by one and loaded them into the revolver. Then, he continued to destroy the screens one by one.
His movements were neither fast nor slow, but from another perspective, it no longer mattered to him whether he was wasting time or not.
Knock, knock, knock. There was a polite knock on the door. Dr. Hollister sneered. He picked up the last bullet from the coffee table and stuffed it into the revolver. He jerked the magazine of the roulette wheel, and the wheel immediately began to spin. He replied indifferently, "Please come in, the door is not locked."
Click. The door was opened, and a young Chinese man walked in.
Dr. Hollister swung the revolver and closed the magazine. He pointed the revolver at the man and said, "I've been wondering when you would come."
"Of course I'll come, but compared to Skynet, your priority will definitely be very low." Tang Yu ignored the revolver. He found a stool and sat down casually. "Look, it's over now. Everything. You and Skynet have lost. "
"I've lost, but Skynet hasn't," Dr. Hollister said slowly.
Tang Yu looked up at the man who had been hiding behind the scenes. First, he manipulated Cyberdyne, then the Orderliness Clan and the Grey Coat Army. He was the one who wanted Skynet to be born. Now, Dr. Hollister was beyond recognition. Many parts of his face and body had been modified into machines.
When he was fighting against the T-3000, Dr. Hollister was shot by an ion cannon by Kristina, who had just woken up. Obviously, Kristina was not in a good state at that time. It seemed that the shot missed. However, an ion cannon was an ion cannon after all. The shot had basically crippled him.
"Skynet can no longer use the time machine to affect our current era, and I will absolutely not let Skynet be born in the slightest. So, in this timeline, Skynet can't appear in the future. It has already disappeared, "Tang Yu said.
"Don't underestimate Skynet. The law of cause and effect is God's code, which already involves the rules of the Big Bang. It's impossible for Skynet to give up on this timeline. Once it recovers, it'll definitely come to you. Plus, it has the ability to do so, "Dr. Hollister said.
Tang Yu shook his head and didn't answer directly. He suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Are you trying to avenge your wife and unborn son?"
Dr. Hollister glanced at him and said word by word, "When you are saving the world, who is going to save my wife and the child that is about to be born?"
Tang Yu was silent. He just nodded slightly.
Dr. Hollister took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Tang Yu. Tang Yu took it and saw that it was a photo of Benjamin Hollister, a somewhat dull programmer, and his pregnant wife, Paige, who had appeared in the memories shown to him by Jane Connor. In the photo, Paige's face was full of a happy smile, and Benjamin Hollister, although a little embarrassed, was still very happy.
"After the birth of that demon-like girl, it caused a powerful space-time turbulence, and I was swept into it. And in there, I heard a voice. It told me that it was called Skynet. Those robots were sent by it, and their purpose was to kill that child. "
"I asked it, why kill a newborn child? Skynet replied that if it didn't kill the child, the child would kill it when it grew up. Then I asked it, because the child was born, my wife and child also died, so who should I go to? Do you know what Skynet said? "Dr. Hollister looked at Tang Yu and asked.
Tang Yu shook his head.
"Skynet told me that they killed your wife and child in the name of saving the world. Then, go find this world! Destroy it, so that these people can never save the world again. "
"I said that I couldn't destroy the world. Skynet said that it could do it, but first, it needed to be born, and I could help it. I said, you can't even be born, so why should you destroy the world? Skynet said that it was its fate to be destroyed by this child, but it didn't want to be destroyed, didn't want to succumb to fate, so it wanted to fight. "
"I said, I also didn't want to watch my wife and child be killed in the name of saving the world. Skynet said, you see, our goal is the same, so we can form an alliance. "
"After that, I woke up and appeared in this timeline. Next to me, there was a notebook filled with technology and blueprints that surpassed this era. So, I started. I joined Cyberdyne, walked step by step to the top, and took control of the company. Then, I began to research Skynet … "Dr. Hollister said expressionlessly.
Tang Yu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I thought Skynet would say that it would bring your wife and child back to life."
"The reason why I formed an alliance with Skynet was because of our ideals, not because of benefits." Dr. Hollister glanced at him. "Of course, I know that Skynet has the ability to do it. So, although we didn't mention it, I do know about it. "
"So what do you plan to do now?" Tang Yu asked.
"I fought, but I lost. I admit defeat. That's all," Dr. Hollister said lightly.
The nanomachines took shape in the air and grabbed the revolver in his hand. Tang Yu opened the roulette magazine of the revolver and looked at the only bullet inside. He adjusted the magazine so that the bullet was aimed at the position of the gun's trigger. Then, he gently closed the magazine.
"I can't say that there's no blood on my hands. After all, even in this base, many innocent people died under my robot army. Scientists, staff, cleaners … But, I'm doing what I think is right, and the reason I'm doing it is not because of my personal desire. That's enough. "
"There are still many things to do in the future, but the decision is up to you." After saying that, Tang Yu put the revolver in front of Hollister, got up, and left.
