After A2 leaves, 2B also wants to say something to 9S, apologies, guilt, or both, which is a mistake she has made anyway.

However, 9S didn't listen to 2B's explanation, just glanced at her wordlessly, and followed A2 into the teleportation pillar.

2B knew that he could not ask for forgiveness, so he sighed helplessly and walked in.

Through the pillar of light of the planetary engine teleportation tower, all the members of the Sending Leaf Force came to the Wandering Earth, and finally saw the once glorious human civilization that they had heard of countless times.

Of course, this is another human civilization.

As far as the eye can see, there are thriving towns all around, a far cry from the ruins of Neil's world. The human beings, who have long been extinct in the world of Neil, are in the wandering earth with people coming and going, and the traffic is busy, but the parasitic troops as artificial intelligence robots have become a minority.

On the planetary engine transmission tower, you can see hundreds of planetary engines spewing out columns of plasma light, like a huge palace, with countless huge pillars standing up to the sky, each pillar emitting a blue-white strong light like a huge fluorescent tube.

Everyone present is a bacterium on the floor of the huge palace, and one can fully feel how small they are compared to the earth, and how great it is to realize this project.

Everyone present showed a look of surprise, even 2B and 9S, who had already been here once, were still amazed by this.

"Welcome to, Wandering Earth."

Qiao Lu introduced to the members of the Jiye Force that this was their new home.

"Well, may I ask ······?"

A member of the Sending Leaf Force with a more lively personality raised her hand and asked, she was the liaison officer of 2B, 6O, a cute girl with golden double twist flowers, who seemed to be full of yearning for the scenery of the earth.

"Will we be working on Earth in the future? Or is there a new orbital satellite base? ”

6O, as a logistics model, has almost never left the bunker, and once asked the commander to go to Earth has been rejected without suspense, and now that she has come to a brand new Earth, how can she not be excited?

The commander rebuked her: "6O, we can't be capricious, how can we have the luxury of living on the same planet as noble humans, and it is our duty to defend the earth in orbit." ”

It seems that this is also the reason why the headquarters of the Jiye troops is not on the moon, but on the orbiting satellite base. But in fact, of course, it was only the Moon Human Council that prevented them from discovering the truth and prevented the Leaf Sending Force from coming to the moon.

Qiao Lu shook his head and said, "No, you can stay, this will be your new home in the future." ”

"Great!" 6O jumped up excitedly and said.

Qiao Lu further announced: "From now on, we will no longer treat you as cold machines, you with your own personality and personal emotions are already intelligent beings equal to human beings. There is no need to be arrogant and feel inferior, and there is no need to talk about noble human beings, there is no need to use such words, what we are pursuing is equality. ”

"But we are only automatic human beings without souls, and we cannot ask for more rights so exceedingly."

The commander of the Sending Leaf Force couldn't accept such a change for a while, she thought that the Sending Leaf Force was just a change of owner, and the loyalty to the human race should still be the same.

Qiao Lu asked rhetorically, "Is this really your own idea?" Or is it just because the implanted program requires you to do so? ”

The answer is obvious, the members of the Leaf Sending Force are implanted with a very strong "love for humans" program, which is why they behave so humbly in the face of humans.

However, this implanted program does not fully control the minds of the Parasitic Leaf Troops, for example, 9S once raised his weapon to Qiao Lu, which means that they are not completely controlled by the program, and it is also a symbol of self-awareness.

Therefore, Qiao Lu needs not to rely on the superficial loyalty maintained by the program, only equality can allow them to truly integrate into the society of the wandering earth, just like Optimus Prime and other Autobots.

"If that isn't enough to change your minds, then it's up to me to grant you the same souls as humans!"

Naturally, what Qiao Law needed to use was a soul gem, and only this Infinity Gem could do such a thing.

Qiao Lu took all the members of the Leaf Sending Force to a clearing on the Wandering Earth, and asked people to bring the soul gems, and then it was the time to witness the miracle.

He picked up the Soul Gem and said, "This is the Infinity Stone we got from another plane, it has the ability to steal, manipulate, or modify souls, and now I will use it to grant you souls." From now on you are no longer soulless automaton humans, but beings with the same soul as humans. ”

All the members of the Jiye army looked at this soul gem that emitted orange light, they didn't expect that there was such a thing in the universe, let alone that Qiao Lu would do this, so that they could get rid of the limitations of artificial intelligence and become truly independent individuals.

The Soul Gem radiated an even more dazzling brilliance, and then a transparent phantory shadow appeared in front of each member of the Leaf Force, matching their faces like a mirror.

"That's what it is······ Soul? ”

2B held out her hand in surprise, this was something she had never thought of being able to have, the rules of the Sending Leaf Force nominally forbade members to even have emotions, let alone a soul that symbolized self-consciousness.

The rest of the Wing were just as incredulous at what was happening in front of them, and as AI robots, they had always only regarded their consciousness as a mere program, never thinking that they could have souls.

Qiao Lu's behavior is to truly admit their self-consciousness, no longer a simple cold machine, and not just a tool!

Some of the members of the Jiye army hugged each other excitedly and cried, even A2, who had always been arrogant, had shaken the expressions on their faces at this moment, they had really gotten rid of their tragic fate in the past, and they had a new life at this moment.

Eventually, each member of the Leaf Force became one with their souls, declaring that they would henceforth be equal to human beings, capable of starting a new life on the wandering earth.

After the ceremony, Qiao Lu silently put away the soul gem, and then only needed to negotiate the specific details.

In the vault below the United Government Headquarters, Qiao Lu was about to inlay the soul gem back into the fire source, but when he turned around, he found Luo Feng waiting for him.

Luo Feng opened his mouth and asked, "Did you really grant them souls with Infinity Stones?" ”

"How is it possible, I'm just holding it in my hand and making a show." Qiao Lu replied with a slight smile.

He re-grasped the soul gem in his palm and injected spiritual energy, and an illusion that was exactly the same as just now appeared in the air, and the so-called granting of souls was just that.

Luo Feng seemed to have seen through everything, and asked tacitly, "Is this good?" If you really want to do it, you can do it. ”

Qiao Lu shook his head and said, "The so-called soul has long existed in their bodies, and all I need to do is make them aware of it." ”

He put the soul gem back on the Tinder Source, and that was enough.
