The two metal warheads staggered through the air, piercing each other's bodies, and the red blood began to spread on the floor, and the two strands of blood were intertwined, gradually indistinguishable from each other.

"But how the world has maintained such a fatal contradiction, I can't think of it."

"Of course, because the ability to think is in me."

"Then let's answer, how the world has survived in contradictions."

"The answer is, alive."

"Alive?"

"Maintaining physical survival is just like what people in our original world have always done. Angels, demons, vampires, werewolves, cultivators, demons... Corruption, oppression, encroachment on rights and interests, war, aggression, and ideological abuse, these things exist in every world, so why can the world exist, and why can people exist in the face of so many unreasonable existences? ”

"I don't know."

"The answer is, alive."

"Alive...

"In this world of programs, the master program has done only one thing to settle most of the contradictions, and that is to implant a piece of code in all the AI, which can be summed up as [as a human being, survive], and the need to maintain physical survival is enough to erase all these contradictions. AI and humans, who have been given such a thinking circuit, will consume most of their energy just to keep their bodies running, and they will not have time to collapse themselves because of contradictions. If we look at it this way, we are just immortal, and there is no fatal contradiction in this world. ”

"Is that so..."

"But there are also people who are frantically investigating [our] so-called secrets, wanting to get the secret of [outsiders'] immortality, which is the behavior of those well-fed and untroubled AIs who want to get relief from their contradictions, and they will get answers."

"Liberated?"

"If the answer is just another contradictory lie, it is not liberation."

"So... How is it? ”

"Death."

"Death?!"

"When the death of [human] is recognized, there is an opportunity for liberation, and the editing basis of the thinking circuit given to the AI in this program world is the information fragments deposited by human beings in the network for decades and nearly a hundred years, among which there are various definitions of human beings, but only one definition is the most widely accepted, that is--- people will die."

"Will the death of the AI bring them liberation?"

"Yes, if we, who were closest to them at that time, could give their death such a definition [of human death], then they would be accepted from a logic that the system itself cannot deny, and then they could face the contradiction, and that would be the beginning of liberation."

"Death..."

"Then, we too can usher in the first step of liberation."

"What's that?"

"Confirm that past memories are real."

"If memory is the cornerstone of action, our cornerstone is undoubtedly the weakest, and if a so-called [100% reduction] game can convince you that you really live in a world, then it is easy to create a memory in your mind... Our dad, our mom, and the bell's experience, did those really exist? It's because we subconsciously have doubts about this that we fall madly in love with her in this world, don't we? ”

"Because at least here she is..."

"Yes, with the liberation of the AIs, we will also get the tools to liberate ourselves, and these AIs will understand one thing--- and that is that they understand how to make us understand and believe in the truth of a world, and they are part of this real framework that is built according to our world, and if we are with them, we can be both defendants and judges."

"What is this..."

"If you don't even have a body, you can't find a body, and if the subject is a ghost, can it still be considered a homicide?"

"Are you talking about it for the sake of our current situation, the blood is almost gone, but you can't feel the fainting sensation that you should feel as a human when you lose blood."

"That's because you, as an emotional person, will rationally recognize that in this world of procedures, bloodshed does not exist, so you don't feel that, on the contrary, when I am facing you... Cough... I'm feeling so uncomfortable right now that I'm going to die... This is the truth that the death shock program can be controlled... ”

"When we face death in this world of programming, the information that would make our brains think that this is a mortal shock will be injected into our soul program anyway, but the claim that the death shock program can be controlled is false."

“。。。。。。 yes, false, something that was always being advertised at the time... You are still ... Remember, right? The so-called "pain" is adjustable by what percentage ... Is that... That... ”

"That's not relying on system regulation at all, but relying on self-regulation, thinking that this is the world of programs, and that it will not cause [death], so there is resistance."

"That's exactly right ... So... Do you know what liberation means... ”

"If you're in tune with the AI, you inevitably have to recognize one thing, and I know exactly what it represents."

"That's good...

A voice grew low, and a man stood up, shouting out the door:

"Guards!"

In the port of the ships of the colonial satellite [Caucasus], among the captured people, the mercenary Blood Moon is waiting blankly for the subordinates who should still be hiding in the ship, trying to break into everyone's cell locks to complete their work. Suddenly, he saw the soldiers patrolling outside suddenly fall down as if their bones had suddenly weakened. At that moment, the door to the cell opened.

"Kevin, what did you do...

"I 。。。。。。 I don't know, but boss," the young mercenary, who was lying inside a pipeline, looked at the surveillance images of the colonial satellites displayed on his wrist terminal in confusion, "There is chaos inside the base now, and many soldiers have fallen like that!" ”

“。。。 No matter what, pull someone out and talk about it, go to the predetermined place to meet! ”

"Hey!! Centre!!! Centre!!! What's going on?! "On Ptolemy, one of the [Immortal's] guards in the cabin where Stana and the others were held watched his colleague fall, and hurriedly shouted to the communicator. Leaning against the wall, Hallelujah snapped to his feet, resting his head on the guard's chin.

Cong Yunxiao also saw a guard flying up in a daze because of his colleague...

Such a scenario erupted simultaneously in various parts of the colonial satellite.

"Those who look at the mirror are also those who do not become demons," the man who had made himself the core of his weapon shook his head in the depths of the colonial satellite, the huge device that was ready to shoot Samuel shockwaves to Earth, "but the speculum can't last long, I'm almost at the limit, Miss Huang, do you hear me?" ”

"Arrando ... Are you in... "On Ptolemy, as soon as the newly freed tactical forecaster sat down in front of the captain's seat, he saw the screen in front of him light up, and Arlando, who seemed to be inside some huge device, jumped out of it.

"Take everyone out of here, there's a time limit for me to be able to harness this device."

"But you...

"Forget, I'm an outsider, yes... Can't die. ”

"Ahh Oh, yes, then how about the regeneration site in Ptolemy? ”

"Certainly, the warships of the Federation cannot be trusted, and it would be good for the warships of Ptolemy and the mercenary forces to get out."

"Regeneration... This is probably one of the few times ... ”

An hour later, on the three warships that were 14,000 kilometers away from the colonial satellites and were fleeing at full speed, all the core personnel gathered on Ptolemy in a daze, watching the colonial satellites gradually flying towards the earth in the tactical seminar room where the floor was a circular information projector, and watching the sun-like light suddenly erupt inside the colony as the golden GN particle brilliance on the earth gradually faded out.

The filter was immediately activated, but the light radiating from the circular tactical projector on the floor did not seem to be diminished, forcing everyone to either close their eyes or block the light with their hands, and voices rose from the light:

"The night does not wait for dawn, the scorching sun is like a flower, and it will eventually wither... Guo Zhouyi, who has completed the "rebirth" in front of everyone's eyes, has one pupil reflecting the "dim" earth, and the other pupil reflecting the colonial satellite that is blooming with strong light due to the internal nuclear explosion. After a long time, the colonial satellite was destroyed from the inside by a nuclear bomb, and the light dimmed again, and the darkness of the universe was attached, and the earth looked like it was shining in the dark universe again.

【Forced Self-Memory Lock】

Guo Zhouyi fell down suddenly.
