The core of the main brain was so naked in front of Qi Lin, as long as Qi Lin smashed it down, he could easily destroy the most sophisticated machine in human history.

"Are you really going to do that? You should know what the consequences of this are, right? …… When humanity returns to the surface, it will once again be caught in the flames of war...... Next time, how many more shelters do you think you'll have to use? How many others will survive World War IV? "The mastermind seems to want to stop Qi Lin, but it seems to be ...... It's like asking him to make a choice.

"I know what the consequences are......" Qi Lin's lips twitched slightly.

"Humanity is a race of desires that have led humanity to the top of the planet's food chain, and lust has led humanity to the abyss of destruction......," the Mastermind continued, as if it were not a supercomputer made by humans, but a priest who felt guilty and wanted to redeem the world.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Qi Lin didn't let go of his clenched fist, he even raised his arm, the terrifying power contained in the contracted muscles, ready to attack.

"Have you ever seen a cartoon called EVA?" I don't know why, at this time, the main brain suddenly changed the topic, and the melodious classical symphony sounded around him, this piece is extremely famous, so famous that Qi Lin, a guy who thinks he doesn't have any musical cells, can hear it immediately......

Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Fourth Movement...... And in this chapter, there is an even more famous passage......

"Ode to Joy".

“Deine Zauber binden wieder

Was die Mode streng geteilt……”

The vocal part of Devon gradually sounded, and the singing seemed to be close to the ear, but it seemed to be far away in the ethereal sky.

"Yes." Qi Lin did not deny that in fact, the fourth movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony also appeared in "EVA", and as the music sounded, the head of the silver-haired boy fell into the orange liquid, merging with the entire sea of LCL......

"In that world, the so-called AT position, that is, the barriers between people, finally disappear completely, and all human beings become one, and they no longer have differences, no more loneliness, no more incomprehension of each other, and no more wars that can destroy the world...... The same is true of the utopian world, where only by freeing humanity from the shackles of the flesh can humanity become a higher life form and ...... You too will have eternal life. At this moment, the Mastermind continued, it changed from a pious priest to a seductive and depraved demon...... Eternal life...... What a seductive word......

Especially for creatures like humans, who have a short life......

"But you know one thing?" Qi Lin suddenly asked rhetorically.

"What?"

"In EVA, the souls of all human beings are fused together to become the final of the Eighteenth Apostle, but only when they are dispersed into an infinite number of individuals with independent consciousness...... They can be called human beings......"

“……”

"Again, do you feel that the current signal is imprisoned in the memory...... Can it be called human? It's not human, it's just an electric current...... When humans receive what you call eternal life, they are dead. ”

“……”

"Maybe humanity will eventually be destroyed at our own hands, but that's what we're to blame...... So, let's take control of our own destiny......"

“……”

"Goodbye...... No, it's goodbye. ”

Qi Lin's fist fell heavily, and the delicate core suddenly turned into scattered fragments, and the melodious music came to an abrupt end.

……

……

Ten thousand kilometers away, Qin stood alone on the tallest tower at the Fort Yukon base, his eyes full of exhaustion and a hint of excitement.

Above his head, a large number of mutated scavenging birds hovered, fierce birds that seemed to be in a state of perpetual hunger, emitting piercing chirps in the sky.

Suddenly, the world around Qin began to crumble and disintegrate, the lead-gray sky shattered like a fragile mirror, and the fragments of the sky fell into the bottomless dark abyss, turning into countless "1s" and "0s......

The whole world began to dissolve, and only the half of the tall tower under Qin's feet remained its original appearance.

[The 9527th simulation calculation is over, and redundant data is being cleared......]

"This time, have you finally found the slightest hint of 'human-only possibility'...... Now that enough data has been collected, it's time for the hands-on part...... It's time to return this world to you. ”

Eventually, Qin and the tower beneath his feet also disappeared, and everything fell silent.
