Chapter 236: The Last Trace of Humanity in Reason (Part II)

The news was like a hammer hitting Lawrence's brain, knocking his consciousness buzzing, and he was a little conscious for a while.

All the battle plans were based on this piece of information, and everyone came here to fight for life and death, but now you told you that this piece of information is just a false trap released by the other party to attack the west?

Subconsciously, his gaze was on the ceiling above his head.

His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the thick armor and walls at this moment, and he saw the Torch Colonial Ark, which was in space orbit at this time, and was making final preparations for the final work, and when this fusion core was sent into the Torch, there was no need for this war to continue.

"Captain, I've received a communication request from the public band, and the signal is from ...... Inside the Torch!"

Suddenly, the spider spoke again.

Before Lawrence could react, the communication was automatically transferred to the large central screen in the control center, and when the communication signal stabilized, the screen was presented with a real-time picture of the inside of the Torch bridge.

But when he saw the figure in the picture, his complexion changed rapidly, and his anger was immediately filled with the shock just now.

"Curry !!"

Almost with an attitude of blood hatred, Lawrence subconsciously took a few steps forward after seeing who the person on the big screen was, and roared in a low voice: "*** still has a face in front of me?!"

The man in front of him, the chief executor of the Torch Project, is also the person the KPA wants to kill the most.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, so is that the first thing you said when you saw me was this?"

"Looks like you've gotten quite a lot."

But Curry's face was calm, as if he didn't care about the anger that Lawrence was looking at at this time, and the first thing he said when he took the initiative to contact here made people feel like two old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

In fact, it is.

Everyone present looked at Lawrence, who was furious, but there was nothing strange about it, and they also knew the stories of their captain's past.

Looking at Lawrence in the holographic projection screen, it seemed that he was going to eat himself, and Curry, who was standing in the bridge of the Torch, seemed to see a little of the past days from the other party's face, the days of peace.

It's just that fate is hard to judge, the two have played since they were young, and after they succeeded in their studies, they embarked on two completely different industries.

One became a scientist, the other joined the army.

After the outbreak of the Doomsday War, when the two met again, they found that the former ancients had now become undying enemies.

"No matter how much I have become, I am not as much as you."

Lawrence stared angrily at Curry on the big screen, and when he knew that the information was fake, he suddenly appeared here, which already made him guess what happened: "Let me guess, the false information that the fusion core will appear here is actually planned by you, what are you going to do when you suddenly appear in front of us now?" Declare the victory of you filthy magnates?"

"I really saw the wrong person back then, I didn't expect you to be such a vicious guy, a lackey in the hands of a powerful person! A spurned liar!"

But without waiting for the other party to speak, Lawrence, who was walking back and forth with a rifle in one hand, raised his hand and pointed at the other party, and scolded angrily: "You keep saying that you want to protect the continuation of civilization, but your protection is to take hundreds of thousands of powerful people around the world to abandon hundreds of millions of ordinary people around the world and flee to a star system dozens of light years away? This is *** to protect the flame of civilization! This is *** civilization!"

"What the hell did you say when I was helping you beasts build spaceships?! Ah, that's forgot?!"

"Why don't you die now!?"

"Preach? Victory?"

Curry, however, was still very calm, calm enough to give the illusion that he was more like a robot: "No, Lawrence, you're mistaken, this operation is intelligence

The people of the ministry have nothing to do with me, and the reason why I am contacting you now is because I only know who is leading the assault team to rush in, and I just want to say goodbye to you as a friend one last time when I am leaving."

"Who the fuck is your friend?!"

Unexpectedly, Lawrence interrupted the other party's remarks with a series of pure national curses, and directly pointed the rifle in his hand at Curry in the screen: "The Curry I once knew is dead!" Now in front of me is just a dog subservient to the powerful, you fly empty checks when you need us, and kick us away when you don't need us! Do you know who built this spaceship under your feet, how many people chose to believe you because of your reputation, and do you know how many people died on the way to build it for your bullshit torch project?! The result? You're doing something again?! You, and the entire post-war government, are outright liars!"

"But it's the most reasonable plan."

In the face of Lawrence's angry scolding, Curry didn't even frown at the change in his expression, he still replied calmly: "The supercomputer has calculated to this moment today before the Torch Project was released, and you also know that the data estimates that our civilization has no future on this planet, and the resources we can use are no longer enough for us to restart civilization, otherwise I would not have designed the Torch Project, and our resources are not enough to make hundreds of millions of people around the world leave this planet together, The continuation of civilization must be rational, I ......."

"And then the *** one lied to us?!"

"If we don't do this, the Torch Project will not succeed, and our civilization will definitely be extinct, as the supreme leader of the Torch Project, my primary responsibility is for the continuation of civilization, and all sacrifices are allowed."

"Do you think you're a god?! Why do you decide the fate of other people just by deciding casually?! The lives of the powerful are fate, but our lives are not fates?!"

"The Powerful?"

Curry asked rhetorically, and continued: "All the members of the Torch Project have been screened by supercomputers, including all the elites and high-level intellectuals we have left, I don't know how you understand the concept of power, but I can tell you that the Torch is not something that can be used for money."

"All the elite and high-level intellectuals have already boarded the ship in the first batch, and the continuation of civilization is sufficient, and all the remaining people who have not yet boarded the ship and those who have not been selected are discardable resources."

"I must be responsible for civilization."

Curry's remarks were very clear, but for everyone on the scene, they felt cold when they heard it.

What kind of person can say such things so naturally?

"Civilization?"

But when Lawrence heard it, he was immediately happy, as if he had heard some extremely funny joke, in fact, he listened to this joke every day: "You call it civilization? What kind of people would call deception and massacre civilized? Now, who is the real civilized person between me and you? Is there humanity at all?!"

"Humanity?"

Listen up.

Curry looked at the angry Lawrence, and for some reason he suddenly felt an indescribable feeling of not wanting to make eye contact with him.

He spoke again:

"Human nature is a necessary ingredient for civilization, but human nature is also a necessary ingredient that can destroy civilization, as the primary person in charge of the Torch Project, my primary responsibility is to continue the flame of our civilization, any sensibility may destroy the fragile flame of the Torch Project, only absolute reason can maximize the highest success rate."

"If I don't, the Torch will never succeed, and our civilization will eventually be reduced to ashes in the universe in a new wave of infighting."

"But, Lawrence, my friend, I am not as dehumanized as you described......

[Recommended,

said.

His face was a little serious, and he said word by word, "...... Now that you stand here, I will contact you now, bid you farewell, and acquiesce in the rebellion you have set up from beginning to end......

「…… It is the only vestige of humanity left in my reason."
