Ten years is a long time, but for some people, it is an easy thing to do.

Ten years of peace have allowed the strength of mankind to develop by leaps and bounds. Under the guidance of Yuan Hao, human beings have grown to the point of entering and exiting the universe. Although they are still a little young, the movement and migration within the solar system have already begun.

Now the number of humans in the entire world of "The Matrix" is about more than 100 million, of which 2 million are the original residents of Zion and their descendants, 40 million are newly liberated by Yuan Hao and others who felt that the matrix was wrong in the past ten years, and the other 40 million are the gene people who were debugged by the Red Queen after Yuan Hao obtained the human gene production factory - although they are gene people, they are like normal humans who grow up little by little from embryos to adults.

Until now, they are still children, and it can only be said that they have room for growth as guest officers.

As for genetic modification, making it the strongest human stream, Yuan Hao doesn't have the time and experience to do this. Because there is no memory adjustment, they have nothing special compared to ordinary people, no matter from appearance to soul, they are all vivid and unique beings, not some reproduction of existence.

They grew up in human society and became the same race of human beings, no one looked at them differently, and they themselves did not know what was the difference between themselves and normal people.

In fact, in the past ten years, Yuan Hao has been propagating: "No matter what his background is, what his bloodline is, as long as he has a human form, recognizes human civilization, and is willing to live with us, he can be regarded as a human being." This is indeed a bit broad.

However, after repeated publicity over the years, many people still recognize this. A lot of humans have a pretty good relationship with the Terminator program in human skin.

There are also several couples who are willing to live together. Yuan Hao didn't interfere with them too much, let alone oppose them.

As for the problem of their heirs, both Yuan Hao and the creator have corresponding solutions:

Yu Yuanhao's side is just to install some liquid storage jet devices that can produce children for them, while the creator's side uses some more direct means to directly create a body or heir for them that can give birth - for this kind of thing, the means of both of them are mainly to complete maintenance, as for the ethics and morality that ordinary people say, they don't attach much importance to it.

For them, the relationship between humans and machines makes them both realize that there is a third way between humans and machines in addition to estrangement and hostility.

"It's a new direction, and I think we can work in that direction. For this reason, the creator sent a clone to find Yuan Hao and talk to him about it.

"That's good, of course! But ......"

Yuan Hao paused slightly, and continued in the surprised gaze of the creator clone:

"People communicate with the program, and there is a corresponding humanity. Some of them are good, and some of them are very bad. This is a big problem. After all, the exchange and integration between the two is now just a symptom. If we want this sign to exist and grow, it is necessary to carry forward the good and get rid of the bad things. ”

"Huh?" Hearing Yuan Hao say this, the creator clone was slightly stunned, and then nodded slightly: "The embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed in the anthill! You can't spoil a pot of porridge for a rat droppings!I'll strengthen the monitoring of the matrix here. ”

"That's good...... The matter on my side will also make Huang Yun's girl worry a lot. Yuan Hao also made a guarantee about this.

"Do you still let Huang Yun be in charge? It seems that you have handed over everything to Huang Yun recently...... Your body is good enough to live another hundred and eighty years, why...... It feels like you are deliberately cultivating your own successor!" Seeing Yuan Hao's order, the creator was slightly stunned, and directly pointed out his doubts.

"You can see it better than those people. Yuan Hao smiled slightly and nodded lightly: "That's right, I'm really leaving." ”

"Where are you going...... the creator asked, and in the blink of an eye he seemed to have thought of something, his eyes glaring at the boss: "Could it be that you are really ......"

"Huh?" Yuan Hao understood the meaning of the creator's clone, and nodded lightly: "It seems that you guessed something? Well, that's what you thought." ”

"Shhh......hh......h You've surprised me so much. ”

"How did you guess?" Yuan Hao was a little puzzled.

"Because your astronautics are so rusty...... It's not realistic to be able to sail beyond the stars. I have sent people to observe the battleships and ships brought back by your companions, and the traces of dust on their bodies do not exceed the limits of the solar system, at most the level of Mars and Jupiter...... That means you've only been there at most!

If that's the case, then it's out of place to go to an alien planet or something! Of course, it's possible that you're just using Mars and Jupiter as a base and then returning to Earth. So such a guess is only one of the most unlikely results. It's just that I just asked casually, but I didn't want you to answer all at once. It was a real surprise to me. ”

"You lied to me?" Yuan Hao finally understood that he had been deceived by someone.

"How can this be said to be a fraud? I'm just trying. The Creator clone chuckled and pursed his lips, "By your own admission, it doesn't have much to do with me!" The old man left the matter behind.

Yuan Hao rolled his eyes at this, but didn't say anything. He was silent for a long time before he whispered to the creator clone: "I hope you can keep this matter a secret for me!"

"Confidentiality?" The corners of the Creator's clone's mouth curled slightly: "It's okay to keep it secret, but you must also promise me a small condition." ”

"What conditions?" asked Yuan Hao, puzzled. "I want to send a clone back with you!"

"What?" Yuan Hao was suddenly alone, but he was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"That's what you imagined, a parallel world! I want to see it too!" said the Creator clone with squinted eyes. Despite his appearance as an elderly man, he looked no different from a child discovering a new toy.

Young, young, maybe that's what you say?

Yuan Hao pondered for a while, and finally opened his mouth gently: "What's in it for you?"

"I want to have more insight...... I think there are more landscapes! There are so many parallel universes, there must be planes dominated by machines. I want to see what that kind of society is like. The doppelganger of the creator said leisurely: "The society I have built ...... My children and grandchildren are still too immature. They need to learn more if they want to grow further. ”

Yuan Hao was stunned again, and then came to his senses.

Children and grandchildren, indeed, are descendants! So many programs in the entire matrix are created by the Creator's doppelgangers, and they are the Creator's descendants.

Seeing that the creator was so well-intentioned, Yuan Hao also sighed with emotion. "Is it necessary to work so hard?"

He asked, "Even if you send a clone back with me, you may not be able to gain anything." After all, the world is different, how can you communicate with each other?"

"That's a real problem. But I believe there will always be more solutions than problems. ”

The creator doppelganger smiled:

"In this case, I will only lose a doppelganger at most - this is a case of failure. If it works, I'll be rewarded more than I ever imagined. If you want to move forward in life, you have to fight. It's just a clone on the left and right. Do you think that's anything to me?"

"Uh...... That's what you say!" Yuan Hao was stunned for a moment and nodded approvingly.

He admits that the Creator doppelganger is right. After all, unlike the extremely complex human soul, the data structure of the Creator doppelganger, no matter how complex, can be expressed in data and logic.

As long as you have enough computing power and storage space, you can create as many clones as you want, and these clones can have the Creator's own extraordinary abilities.

"It's a lot easier than splitting souls. Yuan Hao whispered.

In this regard, Yuan Hao is still a little envious. However, these are only the details. The real situation is that as the things at hand are completed one after another, the situation of the earth is gradually improving, and the situation of the entire atmosphere is 80 percent restored, although it is not the same as before.

Today's global environment is similar to the PM2.5 levels in the old days when the Chinese capital was so strong. Being naked is still a bit harmful, but there is no problem with staying for a short time.

Yuan Hao has built the most basic framework. Ninety-nine percent of humanity and all of its sentient mechanical programs have been moved into space. Just like the space colonies in Gundam World, there are several Galanger points scattered throughout the Earth's circle that can be used by humans to build cylindrical colonies that can be used for human survival.

Humans look down on their home in space and look further up at the deep sea of stars. It's just that unlike the federal government in the Gundam world, which is obsessed with Earth and refuses to immigrate to space, the unified government of humanity now rules all humans in space. The foundation laid by Yuan Hao for them allowed them to have the first step towards the sea of stars.

And when Yuan Hao was about to leave, he had always lived in seclusion all these years, and he came forward to formally sign a new big development plan with the creator of the machine. That is, the gradual release of those humans who are mechanically controlled as batteries by induced situational release. The mechanical side will use them as the vanguard of Martian colonization and carry out the Martian biosphere plan.

It's a hundred-year-long or more project, and the key to it is to transform Mars into a second home for humanity.

“...... With the reuse of solar energy and the large-scale harvesting of helium-3 on the moon, neither humans nor machines are bothered by energy. In this case, it is very unnecessary for machinery to use people as batteries.

It's not impossible to keep humans in captivity, but in addition to disgusting us, it's also very unnecessary. That's why the mechanical side made such a plan with me. The machines will focus on their path, and stop modulating the newborn humans. In other words, when the Centennial Project is completed, all humans controlled by the machine will be zero.

At that time, Mars will also become the habitat of human beings, and it is up to you whether human beings will spend hundreds or thousands of years on Mars or continue to develop into space. I can't do that much. After the agreement was signed, Yuan Hao said leisurely in front of all the council members.

He told them that because of such a large development plan, the energy of the mechanical side would be invested in it. They will no longer pose a threat to humanity. Both sides will be able to maintain peace for at least a hundred years.

"And what about a hundred years from now?" someone wondered.

"A hundred years from now? Is that what we can see? The children and grandchildren will take care of the affairs themselves. What the hell are we doing with so much care?" Yuan Hao shook his head slightly.

"Uh...... So to speak!" the crowd was silent.

"Okay!" In the auditorium of the Space Colonization Star Huafu, Yuan Hao clapped his hands lightly, drawing everyone's attention: "Your ten-year agreement has expired, and we have restored our home planet to a good situation. The sun came out again, and the green grass reappeared on the earth.

With us and the machinery gone, the entire planet no longer needs a heavy burden. The restoration of the biosphere does not require our intervention, and the forces of nature will balance the entire biosphere. Our efforts have been successful, so to speak.

Such a result can already give us a sigh of relief. I finally lived up to my mission. Now, my mission has been accomplished. The path after that will be yours to follow.

For this reason, I have decided to formally resign from the post of head of the Government of Human Unity. In the future, the Government of Human Unity will no longer have a head of state who holds great power, but will have a chairman who can only have great power in times of emergency. ”

"What? Führer, you want to abdicate?"

"This ...... How can this be ......?"

"Führer, you can't leave us behind!"

As soon as Yuan Hao's words fell, the auditorium suddenly became noisy.

Reluctant, difficult to leave, worried...... All kinds of emotions are undoubtedly expressed at this moment. In a sense, Yuan Hao, who has led mankind to this point, has become the spiritual pillar of mankind.

Although he has not been in charge of things much over the years, it can be said that without Yuan Hao, everyone can do things well, but ...... With Yuan Hao watching by their side, it is always the same feeling as Yuan Hao's official resignation.

That feeling of mental emptiness can really make people panic.

Therefore, they all tried their best to ask Yuan Hao to let him retract this decision. But Yuan Hao's mind has been decided, but it cannot be changed. Everyone couldn't resist Yuan Hao, and in the end they could only nod helplessly and agree.

After that, Yuan Hao quickly announced the matter to everyone, and further proposed to make Huang Yun his successor. There is nothing unusual about this.

In fact, in the last two years, it was Huang Yun who really made the decisions of the entire human government. Yuan Hao's move just made her worthy of the name.

In short, Yuan Hao unloaded his burden.

But he didn't leave immediately, but went to the mechanical city side, asked the creator for some things again, and as Huang Yun's backing, he continued to fight for her for half a year. As for half a year later, as a spaceship arrived at the Mars advance base of the unified government of mankind, Yuan Hao really left this world.
