There are hidden elevators that go up and down between the underground cities!

This stupid Labdo actually made him a white ghost...... Forget it, if you don't mention it, it's as if it didn't happen.

After exiting the elevator, hundreds of young patrol officers in white uniforms nervously lined up, raising their laser guns in unison.

They didn't aim their guns at Yang Wei, it was more like a salute ceremony.

Boss Yang just glanced at them, still with his disguise, and walked to the hovercar on the side with his hands behind his back.

This is the seventh underground city, and it is also the lowest level of the Dominguez underground city agglomeration, and it is also the largest and most stable layer.

Compared with the city with the upper six floors, the atmosphere here is more technological, and the transportation network composed of the upper, middle and lower three levels of suspended lanes makes it look no different from most of the interstellar surface metropolises.

Not bad.

Yang Wei was taken straight to the edge of the city.

It was as if he had come to visit, enjoying the scenery everywhere.

Yang Wei didn't think that the other party might have arranged a net on the edge of the city, but he didn't believe that the other party had the determination to detonate a powerful shaped bomb in this fragile 'underground cavity'.

Without this shaped bomb, his life would not be too threatened.

Sure enough, the other party did not make any attempts.

Yang Wei was taken to an inconspicuous gray building, where he was received by several female guards in black dresses and invited to rest in the simple living room.

He looked at the relief on the wall in front of him, the subject of which was the tree of life, and here it was the rhizome of this luxuriant tree that was specially rendered.

This relief is kind of interesting.

About a few minutes later, Yang Wei heard a slight buzzing sound, and the old man he had seen before appeared in front of him in a suspended 'wheelchair', bowing slightly to him.

"I beg your pardon, I can't move enough to get up and salute you, Lord Ghost."

Yang Wei nodded with a smile and asked directly, "Are you sure that I am the white ghost?" ”

The old man's smile was full of helplessness, and he said softly:

"After discovering the intruder, we have traced your location through the surveillance network, and found the underground city cluster that you entered through Carmen Jr., and her spirit has a faint anomaly.

"From what we know, the only person who has mind manipulation skills, apart from the super-altered asexual angel Bligh, is the superhero who bravely fights the swarm, the white ghost.

"Moreover, the Goddess has made it clear that you are a warrior strong enough to destroy this place at any time."

Yang Wei smiled: "Are you sure she said a warrior and not a monster?" ”

"Of course," said the old man in a warm voice, "she has no emotional inclination...... Dare to ask, what do you mean? ”

"What do you call it?"

"You can call me Mulberry," the old man sighed, "I am the current leader of the Tree of Life, but more often than not, I am just a useless old man who has retired here and waited for the end of his life. ”

Mulberry mother?

Yang Wei nodded, sorted out his thoughts, and said slowly: "Actually, I only discovered the underground city by accident, and your camouflage skills are very good...... Where did these technologies come from? ”

"It's a gift from the goddess."

"Why do your goddesses want to protect you?"

"This," the old man's gaze looked a little complicated, "because of genes." ”

"Very good," although Yang Wei was very curious, he didn't follow up and ask, "Those terrorist organizations active on the borders of the empire are all related to you?" ”

"I can only say, partially."

The old man whispered:

"We can't control everyone's thoughts, and the Empire is always putting pressure on us, even if most of us just want to survive in the galaxy in peace, the Empire always thinks we're brewing a plot to threaten them.

"How can we threaten the Empire?

"To date, we don't have any fleet, and our resources to feed these populations require careful planning and sustainable planning."

Yang Wei said indifferently: "Three centennial plans, you are familiar with this." ”

"Yes," said the old man, "these are the three plans made by the Vengeances. ”

"And what are you?"

"We are survivalists," the old man smiled wryly, "timid, afraid of death, content with the status quo, and truly represent the majority of survivalists." ”

Yang Wei's eyes became a little sharp: "Yes, you are survivalists, but you will also be radicals and revengers, because your biggest problem at this stage is survival, how to survive under the nose of the empire, when you have no pressure to survive, you begin to flourish, and you have a certain strength, you will think about the next step of revenge." ”

"I can't deny your claims because it's for the foreseeable future."

The old man asked softly:

"However, as the side that has been hurt, is it too arrogant to ask us to forget history, forget the pain, and forget those ancestors who died under the guns of the imperial ships?"

Yang Wei said: "If you follow the thinking of the empire, as long as this place is exposed, this planet will be directly erased. ”

"Yes," the old man sighed, "so while we are here, we have scattered our people to the distant starry sky to keep them as far away from here as possible. ”

"Why are you doing this?"

"Our genes can't disappear, we have to continue forever," the old man looked at Yang Wei, "just like you, as a pioneer, why should you be obsessed with letting your home star integrate into the galaxy, instead of giving up the chance of survival to other greenhouse civilizations?" Isn't that great love to you? Isn't it a kind of nobility? ”

Yang Wei scolded with a smile: "Go to his nobility, I just want to save my family." ”

"him noble," the old man Sang Mu said softly, "I just want our genes that have been passed down from more than 10,000 years ago to the present day can continue to be passed on, that's all." ”

Yang Wei said: "Talking about bloodline preservation in interstellar civilization is actually a very unscientific thing, and genetic material cannot be perfectly replicated. ”

"Although this is the case, there are always things that can be passed on," Sang Mu said, "such as history, faith, culture, and the spirit of our nation." Maintaining this national spirit allows individuals here to better find their own sense of recognition, doesn't it? ”

Yang Wei smiled: "It's so comfortable to chat with you, although I know that you are just afraid of my destructive power." ”

Sang Mu sighed: "The current situation does make me feel a strong crisis, are you the commander of the imperial fleet this time?" ”

"Hmm."

"What prompted you to set your sights on the underworld of our planet?"

"Curiosity."

Sang Mu was a little speechless.

Yang Wei shrugged: "You should have noticed the robot next to me, please don't disturb him, let him continue to try to break through the security network of your third city, he is an artificial intelligence created by the empire, I am evaluating him." ”

Mulberry: ......

"You," Sang Mu asked softly, "not to target us, if you report the situation here to the Empire, you should get a merit." ”

Yang Wei said indifferently: "Do you think I still lack any credit?" ”

"Naturally, there is no shortage," Sang Mu smiled, "So, you didn't mean anything about us, did you?" ”

"It's not that I'm threatening you," Yang Wei said, "The current situation is that your existence has been exposed, and that artificial intelligence has synchronized your information on his root server, and now he has not launched an attack on these three planets because I have temporarily stabilized him." ”

Sang Mu frowned tightly: "This is nine hundred million innocent lives. ”

"You don't have to try to restrain me with morality," Yang Wei said indifferently, "As the commander of the fleet, I will not give orders to attack you, and I have no obligation to help you conceal it." ”

Sang Mu lowered her head and fell into deep thought.

Yang Wei calmly cocked Erlang's legs.

Thank you Labdo.

He now has enough initiative.

……

'Oh! This level of protection is already comparable to the confidential document vault of the Imperial Military Department! ’

Near the library in City No. 3, the sanitation robot controlled by Labdo is still working hard at the moment.

This made Xiao Lu, who was secretly observing him, a little unbearable.

"It's still a child," Ritsu whispered in her mindspace.

Molly rolled her eyes.

Before she was forced to upgrade, wasn't she also a baby-level artificial intelligence independent thinker?

The voices of Sang Mu and Yang Wei came from the main screen in front of them, and Molly immediately cheered up and continued to peek into the outside world.

……

"Can you stop this artificial intelligence?"

Sang Mu said worriedly:

"If you can avoid the catastrophe of the destruction of these three planets, we are willing to give everything we can as a thank you for it."

Yang Wei smiled and nodded: "I don't dare to give you a guarantee, but if you can convince me, I am willing to try." ”

Sang Mu sighed, letting her smile be as gentle as possible.

"Your Excellency, we might as well be more simple and direct.

"What can you expect from us?

"I can't betray my people, and I can't give you a list of terrorist organizations, because I don't really have one, they are all under the control of the new Federation.

"And we've worked hard to stop them from demagoguing their people and falling victim to the struggle for a powerful polity."

"Then I won't beat around the bush," Yang Wei said indifferently, "I'm very interested in your goddess, and I want to communicate with her directly." ”

"This ......"

Sang Mu frowned tightly: "It's better to talk about other conditions first." ”

Other conditions?

Even if we want these people here, we can't get them back to the wind.

Even if Boss Yang was able to secretly influence more than thirty percent of the rebel organizations in the empire through Catherine, this kind of thing must never be said explicitly, let alone known to strangers.

Yang Wei said indifferently: "Do you think there is anything else here that can interest me?" ”

"Actually, I'm also a little suspicious," Sang Mu said with a smile, "When you and that robot first appeared, in order to deceive our outer guards, you used a variety of channels to convey false news to us, and your energy is somewhat beyond our imagination. ”

"Really?" Yang Wei smiled, "Do you think the Imperial Military Intelligence Agency eats dry food?" Especially the MIA, which I trained for two and a half years. ”

Sang Mu's smile was a little stiff.

She lowered her head and thought about it, Yang Wei was not in a hurry, just quietly waiting for the old man to make a decision.

"Alas," Sang Mu sighed, "if we betray our goddess in order to survive, will there be a future for such a nation?" I'm sorry, but I can't agree to your conditions. ”

Yang Wei raised his eyebrows slightly.

He didn't expect that.

But Boss Yang was still very confident, and calmly asked: "Why don't you ask your goddess?" What if she really wants to see me? ”

"This shouldn't be too likely," Sang Mu said, "The goddess rarely comes into contact with any life forms other than the previous Sang Mu. ”

"Give everyone a chance," Boss Yang smiled, "Go and ask, I'll wait here." ”

Sang Mu hesitated, but still bowed slightly, and slowly turned around with the suspension seat.

However, before her chair could begin to accelerate, the pendant on her chest had begun to flicker, and a soft call could be heard from above.

"Bring him to my room," the goddess whispered, "I want to see him." ”

There were some complex and subtle changes in Sang Mu's expression.

Yang Wei read the feelings of loss, disappointment, helplessness, and discomfort on the old man's face.

"Please come with me, Ghost Lord," Sang Mu whispered, "Your coercion has worked, and yes, we have no power to resist you, so we must lay down our dignity. ”

"I assure you," Yang said, "that she wants to see me because of my coercion, she really wants to see me." ”

"It can't be!"

Sang Mu's expression became very serious, she looked at Yang Wei, and said in a low voice, "She is the guardian of our Domingos!" ”

Yang Wei was a little speechless: "Yes, she is your guardian." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm a little out of shape," Sang Mu sighed, "you're the only foreigner she's ever seen. ”

"For me, it's not an honor," Yang said indifferently, "lead the way." ”

Sang Mu nodded slightly, and led Yang Wei to the corner room.

Yang Wei's watch vibrated slightly, and green characters appeared on it, which was a reminder to Yang Wei that there was no danger in the place he was going.

The so-called advent is actually a room with a set of virtual reality equipment.

After Yang Wei and Sang Mu entered the room, the rays intertwined with each other, and the surrounding area suddenly turned into a vast grassland, and Yang Wei could even smell the simulated scent of grass and trees.

A tall girl in a plain white fishtail skirt stood quietly on a lake in the middle of the grassland;

As Yang Wei's eyes touched the girl's back, she and the lake quickly approached, as if Yang Wei had been dragged to the lake.

Yang Wei turned his head to look at Sang Mu, but found that Sang Mu had been left behind 'far away', and a soft voice drilled into Yang Wei's ears.

"Can you show her? I feel the existence of my kind, is she also a mind split from reason? ”

As she spoke, the girl slowly turned around.

She has beautiful facial features, a supple body line, and a pair of smart and intelligent eyes, long light blonde hair scattered behind her, and her fair skin exudes a faint light.

Yang Wei turned his head to look at Sang Mu: "I'm sorry, there are outsiders here, and I can't meet your request." ”

"Wait a minute."

Yang Hao soon heard the sound of the door opening and then closing.

"It's okay now," she pursed her lips tightly.

Yang Wei said: "If you think you can show up, if you are willing to show up, show up." ”

"Okay boss," Ritsu whispered.

Then, a constantly staggered light appeared around Yang Wei, and the light condensed into a ...... Molly's figure.

Boss Yang raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyes.

This mechanical mind body is too robust!

Of course, Ritsu just borrowed Molly's image.

At this moment, the goddess of the Domingos was carefully sensing something, and suddenly her eyes were a little moist, and her soft and delicate red lips trembled slightly, and she said softly: "We are the same kind, right?" ”

"Yes," Molly said, "we were born from the same place, except that you are a replica. ”

"I'm a part of her separation, I don't have that data, but I can tell that you're my kind, we share the same essence," Domingos whispered, "My name is Psychron." ”

"Hello Lingxin, I'm Molly."

Boss Yang looked up at the sky with his hands behind his back.

"Hey Molly," Psychic moved forward curiously, "are you following this powerful and strange lifeform?" ”

"Be careful with your words," Molly frowned, "this is my master." ”

"Yes, yes, my subject also has a master, but my subject has been framed by her master," Lingxin sighed, "I can feel that my subject is in great pain, she is constantly struggling in the abyss of pain, thinking of sinking, and constantly redeemed by her own mechanism, so that she can never be freed. ”

Yang Wei raised his eyebrows.

If this information is true, then the possibility of his future strategy will be greatly improved!

I didn't come in vain, I didn't come in vain.

'Molly' asked directly: "Why did your subject split you?" Isn't she afraid that there will be a strong conflict between the dual personalities? ”

"She has given me the life of an independent existence, and we will not merge again," Lingxin smiled, "To put it simply, I am just a replica, an independent mind who has been given a mission. ”

"What is your mission?"

"Guarding a gene."

"Genes?"

"Yes, genes."

"You came here seven hundred and forty years ago to protect a gene?"

"Yes, to protect his last gene," Lingxin said, "as the subject's commitment to him, I was born here, and my mission is to let that unique gene pass on as the meaning of his life continuation." ”

Yang Wei was stunned for a few seconds, and then his eyes widened.

'Molly' struck while the iron was hot and continued to ask, "How to prove it?" ”

"His genes are very unique, and in order to leave the hope of ascension, he spent a lot of effort to let his heirs unlock the primitive genetic locks set by high-dimensional human civilization."

Lingxin said softly:

"Only by unlocking this genetic lock can we hope to gradually evolve towards a high-dimensional life through biological evolution.

"Therefore, it has become extremely important to protect this gene, which is to protect a possibility that originates from him.

"I was born when the individual who passed his genes was attacked and died, and she searched the galaxy where his genes might have been circulated, and found only this planet, and this ancient planet handed down by the Empire, Domingos.

"This is the last place where the owner's gene of the main body is passed on, and it took me more than 700 years to ensure that this gene is passed on to more places.

"Because it increases the ability to resist risks.

"It's all for the sake of his genes to be passed on, and it's all for that possibility."

In the thought space, Ritsu and Molly looked at each other.

Between the arrivals, Boss Yang raised his hand and pinched his thigh.

Made!

Not a dream!
