Consciousness floated in the air, and it took a long time for it to finally land.

Shu Yungui couldn't feel his own weight, as if he could take off into the air with a slight jump, and the ground under his feet could not provide him with any gravitational force, and of course he himself did not have the slightest gravity.

He was surrounded by a world of darkness and light, why did he describe it like that, because the world he was in now was pitch black, just like the scene that humans saw when they entered the universe, and the darkness here was more pure than in the universe, and there were stars in the universe that would shine and heat, but there was nothing here.

The white color comes from Shu Yungui's own vision, even though he clearly knows that he is in a dark, but his vision is unexpectedly clear, as if there is a high-wattage light bulb hanging above his head, he doesn't know where the light source comes from, but when he looks at it, he can clearly see everything in front of him.

This is a very wonderful visual experience, and it took Shu Yungui a while to get used to this magical sight where his gaze turned, and it seemed that it was because he was in this world that he could get such a feeling.

Could this be the legendary "New World"?

In the records of the New World Project, Dai Yingzhi's description of the New World was clearly recorded.

She said that this is a magical world that human beings have never imagined and have never set foot in, where human beings will abandon all birth, old age, sickness and death, and the new world will provide them with all the physical and spiritual needs they need, and human beings can live forever and enjoy happiness and joy forever.

Such a statement is simply ridiculous in modern society, and not many people will believe it at all, but in the period of natural disasters, the general education level of human beings is low, and they have been invaded by wars and natural disasters for a long time, and they urgently need a so-called "Garden of Eden" to escape the weight of reality, so the "new world" in Dai Yingzhi's mouth has become the only place where people can place their hopes.

At the height of the New World Project, there were a large number of supporters in the underground fortresses of various sectors around the world, and Gu Xingtang and his research team received more than 200 million applications when they announced the opening of the first consciousness upload quota.

You must know that at that time, the people of the lower classes of the underground fortress did not have many electronic devices, and they had to wait in a long queue in front of a computer, and many people stayed up for days and nights to queue up to submit an application.

Snowflakes of applications poured into the AI Institute through the Internet, and during that time almost everyone at the institute dropped their work to help Project Shinsegae screen the first "lucky" consciousness uploaders.

As they are the first batch of uploaders, the selection conditions are particularly demanding, and in order to pass the screening, applicants must pass the status test, physical health and dual quotient test.

Their IQ can't be too high, because smart people need to be left to government schools to work for the continued development of human technology.

At the same time, the applicant's body should not be too strong, because a person with good physique should be selected to join the army and perform escort work inside and outside the fortress.

The most important thing is status, the civilians at the bottom of the fortress are practically impossible to choose, because the government thinks they are genetically inferior, and they have never thought about anything serious in their heads, and this consciousness is like spitting in bread when it is transmitted to the muse, and once such a lowly consciousness is transmitted, it will be difficult for the new world to attract high-status upper-class people.

Of course, the government will not explicitly reject the applications of those who are in the lower classes of the fortress, but their applications will be directly filtered out by the computer system, and will not even be transmitted to the Institute of Artificial Intelligence.

In addition to the lowest level of civilians, the leaders at the top were not allowed to participate in the first phase of the New World Project, because they were very desperate, and the electronic human consciousness was a new project, and the leaders would not easily choose to believe in this new technology unless it was tested for a long time and with a large audience to ensure its authenticity and safety.

In this way, the target audience of the first phase of the New World Project experimenters was limited to the middle level of the fortress, those civilians with formal status, and even one or two government workers in their homes, who were mentally stable, and this time the number of uploads was 5,000.

In the end, only 5,000 volunteers were selected from 200 million applications, which is a huge workload that is difficult to complete by manpower, and the data screening is basically handled by the MUSE server itself, which accurately selects all the eligible people, and even those who are not selected by the first phase of the plan, but are very qualified, and marks the sign of "applicable to the second phase".

Obviously, Dai Yingzhi was very confident in the New World Project at that time, and she even expected that this plan would develop for a long time, and she could use a large amount of human consciousness data to nourish her daughter's consciousness, hoping that her daughter could really grow up.

But the human consciousness she has collected for her daughter over the years does not seem to have raised Gu Jinyi into a good child, if the little girl in the pink skirt that Shu Yungui saw in the family building of the research institute is really Gu Jinyi, then she is far from being a "little girl".

Shu Yungui walked slowly forward in the dark but clear world, strings of electronic codes flashed around him from time to time, he felt as if he was standing at the entrance of the legendary underworld, and the codes that flew past him behind him were the human consciousness transmitted by the muse server from all over the universe through the consciousness extractor.

He didn't know what would greet him if he continued to walk forward, they were like a group of lonely souls and wild ghosts, waiting to cross the Nai He Bridge, to be absorbed by Gu Jinyi, and the remaining consciousness was imprisoned and became a weapon when the muses attacked the human world.

What kind of new world is this, it's simply an electronic hell, Shu Yungui raised his hand, although he could see his complete body, but the bones and flesh hidden under the translucent skin seemed to be gradually codified.

Shu Yungui was a little worried, he didn't know much about electronic procedures, but it was estimated that as long as his body was completely coded by this world, he would also lose the power to control his body and consciousness, and become a part of this hell like the pieces of flying code around him.

In the electronic world, his mutation ability could not be used at all, he didn't know how to deal with this critical situation, and it seemed that he couldn't resist Dai Yingzhi and Gu Jinyi's absolute hegemony in this world just by saving himself, so he stopped and pondered for a while, and decided to find Gu Xingtang first.

He didn't stop for long, and the code behind it hit his back, I don't know why those people became strings of codes as soon as they were uploaded, and he was still able to maintain his human form, which may be related to his third-order mutant physique, but it doesn't seem to be entirely the reason for this.

The code behind wanted to push Shu Yun forward, but he refused to move, and those codes kept hitting him, and they didn't even know to deviate a little bit and go around the road.

It seems that just as Shu Yungui thought, these codes have completely lost the ability to think for themselves, their consciousness has been plundered by Gu Jinyi, each string of codes is Gu Jinyi's nutrients to understand the outside world, and their personality, experience, and three views before their death will have a subtle impact on the growth of Gu Jinyi's consciousness.

Shu Yun returned to the way, and those unconscious codes continued to fly forward, they had no emotions, they didn't know how to be angry or grateful, and the once living people became like this after being extracted from their consciousness, and they didn't even look as good as the walking dead.

There were mixed feelings in his heart for a moment, although people died like lights going out, but seeing this kind of scene, Shu Yungui still felt very bad in his heart.

He cautiously avoided those codes and moved forward, looking around for Gu Xingtang's figure, as the creator of the muse server, Shu Yungui didn't know if Gu Xingtang would have preferential treatment in the new world, he searched for a long time but couldn't find Gu Xingtang, and even began to wonder if Gu Xingtang's consciousness had failed to support it, and had already become code and was absorbed by his daughter.

This thought made him a little creepy, but after thinking about it, on the Butterfly Nebula, Gu Xingtang's consciousness had also entered the electronic world, and he had successfully expelled the muse's doppelganger, even if he was facing the muse body now, he shouldn't have sacrificed earlier than Shu Yungui, right?

"Gu Xingtang!"

Shu Yungui shouted, "Gu Xingtang, did you hear me! If you hear it, squeak!"

There was still silence all around, except for the non-verbal code, but after a while, a string of words that he could understand floated in front of him.

[Brother Shu

！！！！！ 】

With the bright red font and the five huge exclamation marks at the back, Shu Yungui could already imagine Tang Yue's grinning expression now, he must have successfully linked to the first generation of the muse server, wanting to find their consciousness in the electronic world.

It's just that Shu Yungui didn't know how to reply to him, he shouted "I'm here", but obviously the sound in the electronic world can't be transmitted to the real world, if he wants Tang Yue to hear his voice, he has to convert his voice into digital audio, but unfortunately the flight academy has not taught this, Shu Yungui doesn't know how to operate.

Soon, a second text drifted in.

[Where are you?!] If you can see a message, grab a random piece of code and remove the character at the very end of it! 】

Although he didn't know why he did this, Shu Yungui still obediently grabbed the little unlucky guy who floated past him, and twisted it slightly, just like twisting a sandwich biscuit, and the last character of the code was easily removed.

Because of the lack of characters, this code immediately turned from green to red, and the code was displayed on the display screen outside the muse server and reported an error, Tang Yue, who was anxiously staring at the screen, immediately jumped up, made a few boxing movements, and shouted in a suppressed voice: "Great! I've finally found Brother Shu!"

The people who were also very anxious in the corridor stood up at once, Cheng Sikong and Zhu Xinyue squeezed into the door at the same time, but Jesus behind them was even more excited, and came directly between them, and asked urgently, "What about my father? Have you found my daddy's consciousness?!"
