Gu San tried his best not to make such a fuss, "What you said is right, after all, the battle situation at that time was really tragic, and my body can't be saved." Maybe even on a ventilator, even if my mind goes back to my body, I may not be able to fight like I used to. ”

"So I'm building a body for you that is entirely mechanical. With the latest technology and cutting-edge equipment, I will make this body move like a human being. ”

Murong Yuhua said and opened his hands completely, in the palm of his hand, he had completed most of his mechanical body, his limbs were sound, and the brain part had been organized for the most part, only the face and abdominal cavity part had not been completed, leaving most of the vacancy.

Even though Gu San was mentally prepared, she was still a little surprised when she heard this answer, "You mean...... You digitized my mind and built a machine body for me? ”

Of course, Murong Yuhua knew that this was not the best answer, he was silent for a moment, and told her with some embarrassment, "Your body no longer exists. It's been fifteen years since you saved me. You can see how old I am now. Even if I used cryonics to leave your body behind, all functions would have decayed and there was no way to use it, so I had to do that. Under that condition, the only thing I can do is to keep your soul like an ancient wizard and create another shell for you. ”

"Then you're not resurrecting me." Gu San was a little troubled, she smiled dryly, let go of her hand and took half a step back, looking at the young man in front of her, "You're just reshaping one, a robot similar to me." ”

"It's still you."

"Are you sure? Thinking is data-based, do you think it belongs to me? Maybe it's just piece after piece of AI data that is similar to my way of thinking, are you sure it's still me? Not to mention this mechanical body, which is not even 'human'. ”

"How can you be AI data that doesn't belong to you? You have your own personal awareness. In the end, it is definitely not for me to make the final decision, the final decision is up to you. As long as you say no, as long as you say you've had enough, I can stop it right away. ”

Murong Yuhua said, trying to get closer, but once again watched Gu San retreat in front of him, he could only say apologetically in an almost pleading tone, "I didn't want to erase that part of you as a 'human', I never thought of it that way. You think of this as a form of therapy. ”

"Treatment? My existence has completely 'changed', not just in my data thinking, but in the whole world. I don't even exist in the real world, don't you think that sounds weird? So when I wake up with a mechanical body, how can I be sure it's reality? ”

"I know that I was the one who came out of the matter to save you and bring you back to life by means that you might not agree with. But your life is your own, and I have no right to interfere. Even now, you don't call it 'life'. But you still have the initiative, you can choose, you can think. You can choose to live or die. We are just extending the concept of 'life' infinitely through technology. It's as if the concept of 'electricity' didn't exist in this world before the advent of 'electricity'. ”

"It's still a bit ......"

"I try to keep your brain tissue as much as possible so that 'you' is still 'you'. Even if you import into that body, you are still a 'person', you just borrow another body. Moreover, almost everyone in humans today uses prosthetics. People are using technology in every way to make themselves stronger. ”

Murong Yuhua said, extinguished the model in his hand, and showed Gu San the current world. Three translucent screens appeared in front of Gu San.

The first side is the city in the sky, prosperous and sophisticated. Everyone was dressed neatly, with clean faces and no expressions.

On the second screen, a middle-aged man wearing a mecha driving a vehicle through the desert looks tired, his face is vicissitudes, and even his eyes are a pair of electronic eyes.

On the third screen, there is a wasteland, and it is the zombies that Gu San is familiar with.

"Gu San, you have been asleep for a long time. The world has changed dramatically, people's ideas about existence, about class, have changed. Everything is completely different from what you first knew. Some live in the sky, while the survivors who are struggling to survive remain on the ground, killing to buy the products produced by Sky City. Arm yourself with those prosthetics to survive longer. Some people have changed their limbs, and some have changed their facial features. There are more and more man-made things in people, and there are fewer and fewer people who are purely natural. ”

"And I'm just replacing everything in my body with 'mechanical', is that what you're talking about?"

"I just want to tell you that a whole new way of life is not as hard to accept as you think."

Gu San gradually calmed down, she looked at the face of the young man in front of her, and sat down on the beach again, "I think you still have something to hide from me." ”

Murong Yuhua was suddenly a little dumbfounded. The change in his expression had obviously told Gu San the answer.

The woman leaned forward slightly, and said very categorically, "I don't think you chose those stories rashly, and the changes in the direction of the stories are by no means casual. I'll say thank you no matter what, I like to be alive, that's right. I'm not the kind of person who would give up on survival easily. Maybe one day I'll accept what you call a 'new way of life'. But you still have something to hide from me, and this matter is obviously close to you. ”

Murong Yuhua licked his lips a little nervously. He followed Gu San and sat down on the beach.

"This thing...... It was only after discovering your qualities that I began to think about it. ”

"My traits?"

"As I said, you're changing the direction of the data world time and time again. In your memory, the firewall collapsed, and at the heart of what happened was that you, your existence, changed the source code of the data world. The source code is based on the 'first rule' that governs the entire world order. Murong Yuhua slowly slowed down his speech, and patiently told her slowly, "Your brain is autonomously generating raw data, replacing the 'First Rule' and rewriting all the order. ”

"So that's why, in the world I just experienced, that 'Murong Yuhua' was so keen on revolution, about breaking classes. It's your social experiment. Gu San said this, smacking his lips with some displeasure, looking at the starry sky reflected on the sea level.

Murong Yuhua hurriedly defended himself, "The existence of the sky and the ground brutally separates everyone, which in itself is unreasonable. I don't think that anyone born in the Sky City should be superior to the survivors on the ground, let alone watch the exploitation and plundering of those who are struggling to survive on the ground. Obviously, everyone can live a safe life equally, but in this world, there is an invisible staircase between everyone. If it is for an individual to keep climbing to get to a more suitable place, then it means that everything is unfair, and the steps should not exist in the first place. ”

"You were born in a completely safe place, why did you give birth to such an idea?"

"Because someone died because of it. There are people who profit from plunder and exploitation, without caring about the lives of others. The education in Sky City led us to believe that this is the 'order' that should exist, and that the survivors are struggling to survive because they are seeking redemption for what they have done. But how can this be 'order'? When I left the city in the sky and came to the ground, I saw for the first time that people would do almost everything to survive in order to survive, because another part of humanity was aloof and ruthless. But these could have changed. They also have the opportunity to go to a safe place, rather than being scared from one 'fortress after another'. ”

"I'm starting to be interested in what you said. You've found a key, boy, I hate those who are on top of them. I hate some politicians who don't take other people's lives seriously. Gu San licked his lips, and when Murong Yuhua noticed this, he immediately put a cigarette on the ground at her and lit it for her.

Gu San took the cigarette in his mouth and took a deep breath of enjoyment after a long absence, although he had already understood that all this was from "data", but at this moment Ni Gooding's happiness was real. She slowly exhaled the smoke ring and asked Murong Yuhua, "I can understand, you want to use me, an existence that can defeat the first rule, to achieve your goal of bringing the survivors back to your utopia?" ”

"Castle in the Sky - of course, it's true that you call it 'Utopia'." Murong Yuhua nodded, "I have done a model calculation, with the current number of survivors and the overall level of medical health, within fifty years, their number will be sharply reduced by eighty percent. ”

"But you know, once you bring these survivors to the 'utopia' of your life, it can be a whole sea change. I know this group of people, even if I've been 'dead' for fifteen years. They have long since turned into fierce and vicious bastards in battle, no kinder than your leaders and leaders who are full of righteousness and morality. ”

Murong Yuhua insisted, "I only hope that everyone's survival may be the same." It's not their fault that they're going to be like that, and their suffering will be over when the flight capsule appears. ”

"You're right." Gu San licked his lips, threw the cigarette in his hand onto the beach, and stretched out his hand towards Murong Yuhua, "Just say this to you, I'll join." It is true that there are people who could have saved most of the people, but they just watched those people die, and they kept sacrificed and struggled to survive. ”

Murong Yuhua couldn't hide his joy, and raised his hand to hold "you...... Are you willing to live and help me achieve this goal? ”

"Some bitches should have taken their butts out of their comfortable chairs and suffered. I am willing to live and wait for you to resurrect me and let me achieve this. ”
