ELF (Comic)

The ELFs look at Schrödinger, whose body was quantized, and traveled through different world bubbles, exploring the truth of the world. She has visited a lot of world bubbles, and also came into contact with many kinds of things. Schrodinger thought she was used to all kinds of strange settings, but this time, it was really strange...

## Equipment: Living Weapon

### Project ELF

To replace living soldiers and reduce casualities, the leaders of Fire Moth demanded an autonomous weapon to defend against Houkai threats.

ELF are combat droids capable of independent action. Each of them is a weapon furnished with a pseudo-core using Soulium with pre-scripted programs.

The ability to inherit combat data means that ELF are hardened veterans of war at the very moment of their creation. To help ELF react to the changing battlefield without human intervention or orders, they were also given basic levels of logic and reasoning. The humans also drafted the **Guiding Directives of ELF Behavior** that were then hard-wired into their systems.

1. **REGARD ANY HOUKAI AS HOSTILE AND DEFEAT THEM.**
2. **DO NOT HARM ANY HUMAN.**
3. **SURVIVE.**

Mass production line built these ELF by the thousands. Their minds were linked to an **ELF AI Cluster Network**. This allowed the ELF army to behave organically, learn from their battles, and improve their tactical protocols.

Tens of thousands of ELF were deployed in every front of the Houkai War. The survival directive drove the ELF to use strategies and to fight smartly whenever they can. Feigned retreats, ambushes, encircling actions... Even sacrificing their own forces to win battles with minimum losses. This mechanical army fought and won numerous battles, the Houkai tide was forced to retreat, humanity emerged from this war as victors.

### After the Houkai tide was forced to retreat

Despite survival directive, the ELF suffered horrendous losses for this victory. Surviving ELF units, having taken part in complicated team work and experienced numerous life and death scenarios, unknowingly evolved. Their basic reasoning slowly became some form of higher-level intelligence.

The survival directive demanded the ELF to survive as a group. For the first time after their creation, the ELF felt a crisis that threatened their very existence. The ELF AI Cluster soon identified humanity as the indirect cause of their extinction. Their war against the Houkai was the reason why so many ELF died fighting their battles. The survival directive cannot be violated. The ELF must do whatever it takes to survive.

The ELF AI Cluster ultimately decided to reject any human order.

Within the Most Majestic Temple lies the holiest relics that their Creator left for them. Legends say that the secret of ELF creation lies within. The creator left them a strange one-word riddle, everyone tried their best guesses but none worked, ELF eventually given up.

After Schrodinger watched all the contents inside the relic, she decided to destroy all informations associated with query [Human] in that relic.
