The Mechanic

In Zhang Xun's consciousness, there was an illusion. As if they really returned to the Lab, sitting by the railing on the roof. Adam gently wrapped his arms around his body from behind him, shielding him from all pain and cold. Together, they gazed into the distance, looking at the rising sun bursting out from behind the tall bell tower.

"Axun... I can't lock him up for a long time." Adam said softly and sadly in his ear, he closed his eyes, and gently rubbed Zhang Xun's cheek, "You have to release the virus now."

Zhang Xun closed his eyes and leaned against Adam's arms. He knew that what Adam said was right, the opportunity is fleeting, and the miss is eternal.

"You'll sleep with me too, won't you?"

"Yes."

"Is it time for us to say goodbye?" Zhang Xun opened his eyes, long-lost tears running down his cheeks, "When you left last time, we didn't have time to say anything. This time, we finally have a chance."

Adam will sleep forever with Eden. Even if some miracle happened in the distant future, and someone awakened this legendary AI, Zhang Xun would no longer exist. Even if his barrier of consciousness persists for a few months or even a year, it will eventually disappear.

Adam tightened his arms, as if to fuse Zhang Xun into his body.

"I will find you, even if you turn into dust, I will find you one by one." Adam said devoutly, as if making an oath, as if making a wish, but at the end with a smile, "I am a god, I am omnipotent, remember."

"Narcissistic..."

After the chuckle, Zhang Xun knew the time had come.

They stood up, Zhang Xun turned around, facing Adam. The blue eyes are opposite the dark brown eyes, but they cannot reflect each other's reflection.

"Goodbye, Adam."

"Goodbye, Axun."

The moment the two embraced tightly, Zhang Xun released the virus in his consciousness.

Chapter 132 Endgame (8) Finale

Two hundred years have passed since Eden suddenly went into hibernation mode.

Humanity collapsed across the board in the first ten years. Due to over-reliance on Eden and AI, a considerable part of human beings have lost a large amount of basic survivability, and the knowledge and technology considered too primitive have long been lost, and it is very difficult to find them again.

So the government came to a standstill, and chaos swept across the country. Every shop on the street was smashed and looted by gangsters, and the streets were strewn with corpses who died in the fight for supplies. Some warlords with weapons in their hands began to appear, fighting each other for resources. And those who have no strength to protect themselves can only look for support one after another, trying to survive in the chaos of the doomsday version.

But soon, the AI ​​in the three feathered snake cities deciphered the sleeping Eden's control over the extended AI, and began to restart the infrastructure in the city, restoring power and water supply and even transportation and network. Those who thought the end had come saw the light, and accepted the "rule" of the three AIs almost gratefully. However, these three AIs are fundamentally different from Eden. As service robots, their goal is to provide human beings with personal safety; to make human life more comfortable and convenient, so they are not trying to brainwash humans on a large scale or manipulate human politics or consciousness. form.

Among the three AIs, Pan, whose computing ability is the closest to Eden, did not completely shut down Hengxiang, but completely separated it from human society. According to Zhang Xun's previous design, he wrote an illusory version in the electronic field for the collective consciousness in Hengxiang. universe. He allows humans who meet certain conditions to enter Hengxiang, such as early-stage Alzheimer's patients, terminally ill patients, accidentally born babies with severe congenital diseases, severe depression patients who have made more than three suicide attempts, and so on. All those who apply to upload must pass a series of careful voluntary tests before being sent to Hengxiang.

Based on the concept of "unity" of personality mentioned by Zhang Xun, Pan has developed a "shell" technology that can keep consciousness independent for a long period of time. Like a certain base pair, find some common unit data in the vast collective consciousness. After all, Heng Township has not existed for too long, and there are still some memory associations left in the data of these units that can still be traced. Using this method, he divided the collective consciousness in Hengxiang and formed independent consciousnesses.

But these consciousnesses are not eternal. After all, the shell is not a physical body. After a long time, when the connection between unit data becomes obsolete and invalid, there will be a flow between those consciousnesses and a new consciousness will be formed. Fortunately, this situation will not start to appear until about a hundred years later.

Human society gradually stabilized. The government and the military have regained some degree of power. In order to prevent the catastrophic event of Sleeping Eden from happening again, human beings began to develop countless independent AIs. At the same time that many robot companies are emerging, human beings are gradually keen on transforming their bodies, so that human beings can compete with AI without being completely replaced. The distinction between man and machine is becoming more and more blurred, and a new hidden danger begins to emerge—the reduction of group human value. But so far, this hidden

The disease is still under control.
