"Yes, I can even guess this."

The electronic synthesizer was surprised, "This 'Ascension Instrument' is indeed used to transform natural people, and every hive settlement will have it.... Otherwise, where do you think so many hives came from? It's not all made from natural people!"

The hive people, are they really all transformed by natural people....

Hearing this answer, Su Xing couldn't help but freeze in place.

On the surface, the hive and the natural man are two completely different races, and the two groups are also hostile to each other.

As everyone knows, all this is just deliberate by the high-level.

Its purpose may be to transform the contradiction between the upper echelons and the hive and the natural person into a racial contradiction between the natural person and the hive.

In reality, however, the two groups are completely from the same roots.

It is the same root, but why is it too anxious to fry each other?

After understanding the reason, Su Xing said, "Then according to this, the reason why there are a large number of natural human babies in the hive settlement is not because the hive enslaves a large number of natural people, but only for the hive to reproduce the group?"

"It's not just the hives that breed the population."

may feel that Su Xing has entered the tiger's den, and there is no possibility of getting out alive, so the electronic synthesized sound does not shy away from talking about it.

He explained: "Almost every year, some of those babies are taken away by natural people, why do you think? The technological level of the hive settlement is stronger than that of natural people, how can it be so easy to be attacked by natural people? Isn't this done so that natural people can also expand the number of ethnic groups.... Only by maintaining a stable population in the settlements can we have a steady stream of people enslaved for us."

The synthesized voice continued, "If it weren't for the deterioration of the ecological environment caused by the war waged by the ancient people, and the gradual loss of fertility of human beings, we would not have had to go to such great lengths to maintain the population..."

Su Xing caught the point of the other party's words.

He realized, "So the babies that natural people snatched from the hive tribe were not bred by man, but were bred by machinery?"

"What do you think? The queen bees have long since lost their fertility."

The synthesized voice continued, "Some of the babies that were bred with robots would be taken away by the natural human team and used to expand the population... The other part is used to transform into a hive, but because the babies are too weak to withstand mechanical modifications, they have to wait until they reach a certain age."

Hearing this, Su Xing had completely figured out the origin of the natural person and the hive clan.

But there was one thing he still didn't understand: "But you didn't just spend so much effort to create two races, and then play against each other to consolidate your own rule, right? There are other ways to do this."

In other words, there must be other reasons for the high-level people in the settlement to do so.

"If it's just to secure power, it's not like that."

"We created the Hive Folk to see how well the mechanical modification technology works, to find the shortcomings, and then to improve them... In short, the Hive is just a swarm experiment, and with them, we can continue to refine the Mechanical Ascension technology to achieve true immortality."

Su Xing once again caught the key in the other party's words, and took the opportunity to ask, "Listening to you say this, could it be that your mechanical ascension technology is still not mature?"

"First of all, it is still possible to not grow old and not die, and the oldest of us who have successfully ascended has lived for more than 800 years.... However, there is a slight drawback, this technology is not yet truly immortal, and if Queen Bee faces a catastrophe in the future, and the "container" that carries our consciousness is destroyed, then we will also die."

While talking to the electronic synthesized voice, Su Xing had also followed the stairs and corridors to the deepest part of the underground of the council hall.

As soon as he arrived, he saw a laboratory door open in front of him.

Inside the laboratory, there is a huge glass petri dish.

Inside the petri dish is a "giant brain" shaped like a human brain, but the size of a house.

The entire brain is mechanical, with numerous transistors and electrical components embedded in it.

It seems that this should be what the high-level people call the "container" used to carry their consciousness.

Seeing this "container" that was completely different from the cultivation civilization, but could also achieve immortality to a certain extent, Su Xing said with interest: "If all of you consciousness is contained in this "container", won't you be able to hear or see it? Is there any difference between losing one's five senses and being imprisoned indefinitely?"

"Hehe."

The electronic synthesized voice sneered and said, "If it's really like what you described, then immortality and immortality will become a kind of torture."

At the same time as the other party said this, a large screen also appeared in the laboratory.

Looking at the environment on the screen, it seems to be in the middle of a very luxuriously decorated house.

The house is luxurious because the floor is paved with translucent agate diamonds, and the tiles and ceiling are white, making it look like they are made of white jade.

In short, this house is so magnificent that it does not look like a human scene.

And that's not all.

There are also young men and girls wearing various styles of clothes everywhere in this room, and they are all among the best in appearance.

At this moment, these men and women are surrounding a group of bigwigs who are dressed up and very similar to the modern people of the earth, doing all kinds of indescribable things.

In addition to the stunning accompaniment, there are also a variety of delicacies on the table next to the bigwigs, all of which are rare and excellent ingredients in the world.

"How? Do you still think that we can neither see nor hear?"

screen.

One of the female bosses seemed to be able to see Su Xing directly in the laboratory through the screen.

She hugged the two handsome and impeccable teenagers beside her, and said to Su Xing, "As long as you are willing to join us, you can enjoy all this in the mastermind.... Anything you can imagine, the main brain can simulate for you, and the touch and reality are completely different from reality."

Boy.

I have to say that if it is just enjoying this aspect, the cultivation civilization is not comparable to the scientific and technological civilization in any way.

Even if it is a monk of the three realms of immortals, gods and Buddhas on the birthday star, even if it is the three big men of the god king, the Buddha master, and the emperor of heaven among the monks, I am afraid that it is not as happy as in this "main brain".

Even Su Xing, who was bent on going further on the path of cultivation and touching a higher and deeper realm, couldn't help but feel excited.

But at the same time, he also saw the disadvantages of this "mastermind" at a glance: "It is indeed a pleasure to live in this "mastermind", but the "mastermind" is a mechanical mechanism after all, and someone has to maintain it from time to time, right? There are also natural people and hive groups .... If something goes wrong with these two forces and you are no longer provided with resources to keep the Mastermind running, won't all this be sustainable?"

"The problem of maintaining the mastermind, of course, we can do it by controlling the mechanical body, and this is not a problem at all."

On the screen, the female boss who seemed to be the leader of the crowd said, "The only thing we have to solve now is the problem of the instability of the hive group and natural people.... These hives and natural people have their own minds, and they all have the potential to rebel."

The female boss continued, "Therefore, if we want to truly rule for a long time, we must control all the queen bees ideologically and fundamentally, and transform all the queen bees into hives, so that their children and grandchildren will also be enslaved for us for life and generation, and provide us with resources."
