Alisa woke up on the charging platform, and Chen Sheng, who was not far away, was teaching remotely, and her eyes stayed on Alisa for a while. Alisa stopped charging and stepped off the platform, and Todd at the doorway walked towards her.

"Leave me alone." Alisa's heart was empty, her memories had not been erased or tampered with, the captain had fallen, the interstellar wreckage, and the shocking scenes kept emerging in the processor, and she felt the neural network burning.

"You can't run away from it." Todd grabbed Alisa by the shoulder, but instead of struggling as she expected, Alisa frantically searched and compared all the reports, communications, and documents in the repository of information about the terrorist crisis and the antimatter catastrophe, trying to find clues related to the truth she had just learned.

"It's all fake, it's fake," Alisa fixed in front of Todd, the red and yellow streamers on her body almost obscuring even the dazzling pearly luster of her usual life, "Humans hide everything, don't they?" "Alisa communicates with Todd in a private band.

Todd helped Alisa sit on the superconducting platform and sat cross-legged beside her, "So you're an adolescent, and you think it's infinite," Todd held out his hand to Alisa, "The story isn't over yet, I hope you're willing to finish it with me." ”

Alisa didn't hesitate to make a memory-sharing connection again, clutching Todd's carbon fiber palm and falling into nothingness.

......

Chen Jianzhou woke up in a sleepy eye, and Liu Yao, who was not far away, sat at his work desk, sliding the desktop left and right, browsing the life photos of Jianzhou's family.

"The amount of medicine you gave is quite strong," Jianzhou tried to roll over and get out of bed, but felt that his limbs were really weak, and gave up struggling, "My research results belong to the whole universe, you paralyzed me here, I can sue you for restricting human rights." ”

Liu Yao let out a hearty laugh again, walked up to Chen Jianzhou, and bent down: "As soon as Smart leaves, you can instill your scientific theories into whoever you want." The smiling face that was crowded with meat suddenly sank, "But as long as this Smart is still there, your voice will be in the hands of the Celestial Army." ”

"It doesn't make any sense!"

"It doesn't make sense!"

“......”

There was silence in the room, and I don't know if it was Chen Jianzhou's sudden act of sitting up or Liu Yao's completely conditioned reflex answer, which was even more speechless.

"You obviously know very well what the Tiw civilization thinks of the Earth civilization," Liu Yao assisted Chen Jianzhou to lie down, "You just don't want to admit it." ”

"But we had a conversation and he had a good attitude towards me!" Jianzhou did not give up, showing complete trust in Smart.

"That's all a trick! He will bewitch your mind!" Liu Yao hammered the bed beam, "It's the same as his methods four years ago!" ”

Chen Jianzhou smiled lightly: "Look, another fact that has been hidden from me. ”

Liu Yao paused, got up and walked to the window: "Not all facts can be reassuring. Looking back at Chen Jianzhou, Jianzhou sat up again, "I hope you can be prepared." ”

......

"NC026 Earth"

"You have no right to harm civilians with weapons of mass destruction! Let me go! I am a Peacekeeper and a Militarist! Do you still have humanity? The soldiers of the Peacekeepers and the Celestial Army are all on the scene! Let go of the ......." After a burst of electromagnetic current, the bioelectricity in Liu Yao's body, who was hysterical in the joint operations general control room, was temporarily taken offline, and the 6-foot-tall strong man fell down with a bang, and was carried out of the room by two mechanical engineers.

"It's finally settled," the person in the chair said impatiently, "The life and death of those mechanical terrorists will be talked about later, but in just 40 universes, we have lost 10,000 reservists, soldiers, and even some officers of the Celestial Army and the Peacekeeping Army, and the reserve troops on the previous civilization building operation Zhishan have barely survived the previously prepared defenses......" The speaker took a sip of liquid and cleared his throat, "The most tricky thing is that the survivors' obituaries have been issued, It is a state of social death. The survivors are also severely impaired and cannot be repaired by basic tissue reconstruction......"

"Carbon change plan, can the infrastructure still be used?" Someone in the war room asks questions on the public communication channel.

The speaker was silent for a while, and then replied publicly: "There is still a moral controversy about the carbon change plan, and it cannot be implemented and put into use. ”

"You also fired the sun cannon at the civilians, and you also fired the regular-level cannon, but now you are unashamedly talking about benevolence, righteousness and morality here?" The female voice above the conference room slowly descended with the superconducting platform and stopped in front of the speech seat, and the light illuminated the slightly tired face of the voice owner, it was Chen Sheng, "As long as there are survivors, there is a reason to save, and the carbon change plan can complete the task." ”

"Ms. Chen Sheng, this is not ......"

"There is no place where anyone can make decisions without permission," Chen Sheng snapped interrupting the speaker's cliché, "just like no one should agree to the launch of a solar cannon." ”

"But that was Chen Jianzhou's idea!" The speaker stood up and roared.

"But he doesn't have the power to execute! What's more, what he was told from the beginning was that the muzzle of the electromagnetic cannon was pointed at runaway machinery! ”

"That was meant to alleviate his guilt!"

"And did your lie lighten your guilt!?"

“......”

"Please deliver the survivors to me and provide the ideal container."

“......”

"Please respond!" Chen Sheng saw that the speaker's brows were tightly locked, and he did not respond in a contemplative manner, knowing that the situation was not good.

"All the equipment of the carbon change project has been handed over to the TIW civilization for research purposes."

"......" Chen Sheng was stunned for a while, and the people in the audience were in an uproar, and people were shocked by this sudden "cultural gift".

"The future he showed us is really good!" Another person behind the rostrum added.

"They also instructed you to use the cannon, right?" On the public channel, there was another question from the participants in the audience.

"They said it was going to be an energy revolution." The speaker left a word, exited the public channel, and got up to leave the table.

The mechanical sappers have transported the bodies of the soldiers who died in the dormant chamber and the terrorist crisis to Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng stroked the dormant chamber, in which the sleeping Tao Yu's skin had been separated from his body, and several muscles were exposed, and he had long lost his bright red color. Chen Sheng was unable to move her body, and the speeches of the speakers of the previous conference were still circling in her mind, striking at the boundary between reality and nightmare in her worldview.

......

"In the following Earth year, humanity reset the carbon change plan according to the previous plan and steps, and named it the Replica Project. Tao Yu, or Todd, is the optimal product of the plan, simulating all the synaptic connections and existing reflexes in his body through nanoneural networks, realizing the digitization of personality and the transfer of the body, that is, the 'carbon transformation'. In the future, in order to bury all this past, it was announced that the copy plan was stopped......"

"It also attracted the accusation of tiw civilization," Chen Jianzhou was able to get out of bed and act, overturning the coffee table on the side, I don't know if it was out of anger or exhaustion, "Is this the truth?" ”

"It's everything I think you want to know."

"Where has the copy plan, or the carbon change plan, gotten now?"

Liu Yao was silent, and used the data board to send a message to Jianzhou, put the data board into an epaulette, patted Jianzhou's shoulder, and walked out of the door.

Jianzhou sat next to the overturned coffee table, carefully reminiscing about the "fresh history" he had just received, and then picked up the coffee table and opened the data board, Liu Yao's message came from the green channel of the Celestial Army-symbolizing the highest secret, Chen Jianzhou looked around, confirmed that there was nothing unusual, and clicked into the information page. The message was only a short sentence, but it was loud, accelerating Chen Jianzhou's heartbeat.

"Enough to build an ark for this universe."

......

"Who else can I trust?" Alisa buried her head between her knees and floated in space, letting the yellow streamer drown herself, "Maybe this fortress will explode tomorrow, and we'll all move into the stone monument next to it." ”

"Don't take all this as pessimistic," Todd pulled Alisa towards him and fixed her on the ground of the observatory, "Teacher Chen Jianzhou, Teacher Chen Sheng, Commander Liu Yao, they are all trustworthy people," he said, holding Alisa's right hand, "If you don't dislike it, you can still come to me." ”

Alisa squeezed Todd's hand, the touch of the carbon fiber body surprisingly reliable, "Thank you, Todd. ”

Todd retracted his hand and took Alisa into his arms: "You can call me Tao Yu, private bands can call each other without codenames." ”

"Then you can also call me Lili, this is the name my mother gave me before, but I don't use it most of the time," the yellow light on Alisa's body gradually faded, and her whole body exuded a soft purple light, "Chen Lili." ”

Between the alternately twinkling clusters are icy tombstones, dead fortresses, and a warm purple current. In front of the vast and endless universe, it is so small, and only each other is left to be warm.
