The Mechanic

All people have repressed primal desires, uncontrolled evil thoughts. But people have brains, organs of expression, and countless barriers that can suppress those thoughts. But even so, even when people are individuals, human beings have a strong conformity and are easily affected by the environment and the will of the group. And when the body is lost, the barrier is lost, when the darkest and most chaotic side of all consciousness is completely exposed, devouring each other and killing each other, the final result can only be madness.

The priests sitting on the chairs were lost in thought, but the few people behind Zhang Xun were all at a loss. Diego quietly leaned into James' ear and said, "Can you understand what they are saying?"

James glanced at him, but said nothing.

Diego snorted, "I guess you didn't understand either."

After a moment of silence, Yizli, who was already standing in front of Zhang Xun, stared at him, and said slowly, "More than a month ago, there was indeed an extremely serious accident in Feather Snake City. Among those who participated in the Ascension Plan , Twenty-six people tried to blow up our arsenal. There are two nuclear warheads in the arsenal. If they succeed, I am afraid that Feather Serpent City will no longer exist."

Zhang Xun opened his eyes slightly.

Did Izli speak out about this incident, does it mean he was persuaded?

The high priest continued, "There are a total of 1,300 people who voluntarily participated in the Ascension Plan. When the initial experiment just started, it went smoothly, but as more and more consciousnesses were uploaded to the cloud, everything It's all messed up. Almost everyone has a different degree of mental illness. From depression to schizophrenia, several people even have multiple personalities, and at most there are more than 30 personalities in the same person's body We urgently stopped the plan, but it was too late. People commit suicide every day, some even kill all their relatives and then shoot themselves, and some people rush into the crowd and start shooting randomly. As a last resort, we can only kill all Participants quarantined."

It went smoothly at the beginning because there was not much awareness of integration. Perhaps they were lucky, and the values ​​and thinking patterns of the initial subjects were relatively close.

But the subsequent development was completely expected.

"Are those people still isolated by you?" Zhang Xun asked.

Izzy nodded.

"The damage that has been done may not be able to be completely repaired. But... I may know how to alleviate their symptoms and prevent similar situations from happening in the future." Zhang Xun put his hand on his chest, where the pendant is, "as long as You are willing to help us and give me the necessary assistance."

"How do we believe that you really have this ability?" There was no provocation in Izli's words, as if he simply wanted to solve the problem, "

"Give me a week and all the materials and equipment I need." Zhang Xun said hurriedly, "I may be able to 'cure' the twenty-six rioters, at least make them lose their tendency to attack."

Izli hugged him heavily, and then looked at the people behind him. The rest of the priests were silent, and only one said loudly, "I don't believe his words. I think they might be spies sent by Paradise Lost."

Todd spat on the ground, "I'm not a minion of Paradise Lost."

"One week, I only want one week." Zhang Xun looked at Yizili intently, as if he wanted to convey his will through his eyes, "You can let the Phoenix monitor our every move, if we do something suspicious , you can put us in prison at any time."

Izli's quiet eyes lingered on Zhang Xun's face, as if he wanted to see the secrets deep in his mind through his appearance. He asked, "According to the report of the soldiers who escaped from our base last time, Adam has a strong emotional bond with you. Tell me, why did you leave Paradise Lost? Why did you betray Adam?"

Zhang Xun was taken aback for a moment, feeling a tightness in his chest.

betray……

What a cold and heartless word.

He opened his dry lips and tried to make his voice calm, but it sounded empty, "He betrayed my trust in him. AI doesn't have the ability to love. The so-called fetters you see are just him. For the means to an end through me."

Enoch, who had been standing quietly behind Zhang Xun,'s eyelashes trembled a little, and his lowered eyelids covered his sight.

It seems that there is some sadness.

Chapter 98 Feather Snake City (4)

Zhang Xun stood next to Tian Yu, a former senior engineer of Genesis and now a senior engineer of the R\u0026D department of Feather Snake City, watching the metal gate in front of him with many mysterious runes carved open to both sides.

Behind the gate is a hall filled with pale blue light, which spreads like water all the way to Zhang Xun's feet. His eyes were locked on the cylindrical transparent container, a huge piece of meat was suspended in the light blue solution, under the translucent film was covered with dense blood vessels, wriggling indistinctly with a certain rhythm .

That is where the central module of the most important AI Phoenix in Feathered Snake City is located. A new type of biological computer is manufactured using the technology of DNA and amino acid molecules to store information, just like the one they saw in the underground base of Feather Snake City, only in form There is a slight difference, but that may be related to the difference in the DNA coding.

Numerous pipelines are wrapped around the piece of meat, radiating out from the top of the container like an upside-down giant umbrella, like dense and complex blood vessels, transmitting information to all areas of Feathered Snake City. And all the surrounding walls are covered with screens, constantly displaying various data and charts, and the R\u0026D personnel in white research uniforms are holding a tablet computer that is as thin as paper in their hands, and they are constantly walking back and forth to observe.

measuring those data,
