Before this chapter: The evolutionary history of this article is pure fiction and completely different from the real Earth.

"We believe that the evolution of human society is becoming faster and more uncontrollable. Although in recent years, due to the stagnation of nuclear fusion research and development, the gradual depletion of oil resources and other energy problems, the speed of social evolution has begun to slow down, giving us time to adapt, but the huge changes brought about by the outbreak of aura have once again accelerated the evolution process of our society, and the uncontrollable trend is becoming more and more serious. ”

———— United International, Human Society Research Group, Reiki Society: The Coming Upheaval, 2015

"In a minimum of 5 years and a maximum of 30 years, under the condition of ensuring the existence of Reiki, human beings will evolve into a new species. This form of life is cultivated and propagated by human-made 'memes', which will allow people to conceive their own evolutions through learning and practice, using knowledge called 'inheritance'. In 30 years, all the 'old humans' will be completely replaced by the 'practicing humans', and the latter is an irreversible evolution of the former itself. ”

———— Bison Lemaître; John Gamow, The Evolution of Humanity: The Modern, 2016

“…… In addition to the benefits, the enormous increase in human life will bring with it a large number of ethical and moral problems, and all the structures of our society today are built on the premise that natural persons will die within a hundred years, whether it is retirement time or old-age insurance. Although it is designed with redundancy, there will be huge problems after 120 years, and huge contradictions will appear after 150 years. And as long as the cultivator becomes an awakened high-level cultivator—which is not difficult—the average life expectancy of ordinary citizens in the three central regions will be as high as 235 years or more. The great contradictions that a drastic change in the social structure will create, and the damage it can cause is better than a world war. ”

Since the evolution of life on earth began three billion years ago, it has been deeply affected by Reiki, and the macromolecular organic structure that can keenly capture Reiki and exist stably in the Reiki environment can carry out the next step of evolution, which is destined to all life on this planet will inevitably be inextricably linked with Reiki in the future.

Of course, there is a connection, it does not mean that it must be had, or it can be used, the creatures that can use the aura are the best in nature, and it is not only the creatures that can use the aura to survive - after all, the essence of life is the survival of the fittest, and sometimes, holding the aura itself, will cause some kind of obstacle to survival, and the event of the aura's severance is a clear proof, human beings, the natural aura talent is not an excellent race, but it is easier to survive than a large number of natural beasts.

Of course, these are not the main reasons for the survival of human beings, what makes human beings superior to other beasts is intelligence, and wisdom alone.

In the rapidly changing changes in the earth's environment, human beings have dominated the main body of the earth's ecosystem through wisdom, which is far superior to the ability to adapt, whether it is the ability to react, change, or adapt to the new environment, which is far superior to the ability of most beasts to adapt to the environment.

And the 'tools' created by intelligent human beings to allow their race to survive and develop are the creations called civilizations.

Civilization is not static, with the accumulation of human wisdom and the development of technology, civilization is also evolving, which is actually similar to biological evolution.

Just like the original parthenogenesis, after becoming more likely to create more bisexual organisms with genetic diversity, their original unisexual group will gradually gather together and become a completely different bisexual group, whether it is the mode of action and thinking, the original non-existent mating, reproduction, socialization, and competition will appear in the cluster of this organism and become their new 'instinct'.

When civilization encounters tremendous technological progress, the challenges that human beings have to face, just like the transformation of parthenogenesis into bisexuality, will undergo tremendous changes in the entire social structure and civilization system.

In fact, the speed of evolution of civilization is much faster than the speed of evolution of ordinary biological races, and there is a trend of acceleration.

3.8 billion years ago, the earth's first pro-aura macromolecular organic structure appeared, and developed the ability to replicate itself, it is a strange, rudimentary, incomparably primitive carbon-based machinery, short-lived, or even such a statement, because the factor that determines its existence is not itself.

3.3 billion years ago, the former carbon-based molecular machinery appeared a more efficient structure, prokaryotic life appeared, followed by a kind of blue-green algae that can transform aura and sunlight for their own use, the oxygen content in the atmosphere began to increase, and the aura in the world also began to precipitate into the ocean with the corpse of blue-green algae, with the geological movement and ocean currents for circulation, they naturally have a lifespan, because the life limit itself is a mechanism for life renewal and self-evolution.

1.3 billion years ago, eukaryotes with a cell nucleus began to appear, which are higher life forms than prokaryotes, with more complex structures and energy sources, as well as more complex functions and modules. They evolved extremely rapidly, and a large number of primordial eukaryotic life that did not adapt to the environment were born and died rapidly, adjusting life forms to the point of nearing 'perfection'.

5~300 million years ago, through a large number of cells together to produce many functions, multicellular organisms dominated the earth, the first aura super creature, 'Razor Jellyfish' is the overlord of the ecosystem, it flourished for 200 million years, and finally perished in a large number of volcanic eruptions caused by ocean acidification and abrupt changes in aura. However, some studies have proved that even in such an ecological circle, the thunder jellyfish still adapts to the environment through natural replacement, and the latest thunder jellyfish found so far has actually adapted to the acidified ocean, only because the polluted and hot sea water prevents them from generating a high charged spiritual air flow in the body, so it is extinct.

200 million years ago, the land dragons became the overlords, and many powerful aura super beings fought each other to catalyze each other's evolution. This is the first cause of unnatural evolution in addition to natural factors such as the natural environment and the evolution of natural lifespan.

The age of dragons ended with a seismic shift and a succession of meteor showers, but there is also evidence that the first viviparous mammals appeared in that era.

About 40 million years ago, because a certain branch of mammals evolved a more developed brain, intelligence was not yet born, but the germ was already there.

30 million years ago, when the upright walking apes left the trees and came to the earth, their brains did not understand what it meant to free their hands, and the evolution of the natural environment and death still acted on them.

Seven million years ago, the use of stone tools and fire attested to the emergence of intelligence, and the descendants of apes are no longer called beasts, they are the ancestors of today's humans.

The earth of this era is full of all kinds of dangerous and extraordinary beasts - dragon relics that have existed since 200 million years ago, all kinds of powerful super life forms that can use aura, and even the forest itself is as dangerous as hell. Use it to fight for your own survival with all your might.

The natural environment accelerates the development of intelligence.

Four million years ago, humans gave birth to the original mimetic source by imitating the use of aura by other spiritual beings. At the same time, 'capable people' born of natural variation have also begun to appear.

Two million years ago, a branch of humanity called Homo sapiens developed a technique called 'cultivation' from the mimicry of the Tao. It is a method of sublimating life forms based entirely on the use of the aura of the human body. It is one of the ultimate uses of wisdom.

But the end of life still takes away the memory, because death, the most precious wisdom of human beings is often lost, which causes a long period of loss and redevelopment.

One million years ago, Homo sapiens wiped out, fused most of their kind, and waged a war with a cluster of primary spirit beasts that mimicked human social forms and lasted for more than hundreds of thousands of years. This war has made the vast majority of spirit beasts have been engraved in their bloodlines with the instinct of 'fear of humans'.

The rudiments of the immortal civilization began to explore the many original space-time passages on Earth.

500,000 years ago, when the war ended, through spiritual practice, individuals appeared in the human race who could live forever.

From this time on, the evolution of life has completely bid farewell to the natural mechanism of natural selection, life limit, and reproduction and extinction, and its impact on the evolution speed of life itself is far slower, and lags behind the self-transformation of life through wisdom itself.

In the theory of evolution, lifespan has thus lost its supremacy and can only be used as a vassal of wisdom.

But it's still there.

Moreover, the existence of immortal immortals itself has greatly slowed down the development of civilization, and because of the disappearance of foreign enemies, technological development is also close to stagnation.

50,000 years ago, the aura-immortal civilization, which had developed to the extreme, encountered the biggest environmental change in the history of the earth and even the solar system - the aura-cut off. In the following tens of thousands of years, the concentration of aura continued to decline, although it occasionally recovered, but the fluctuations were extremely obvious, and the arc of the fluctuation also showed a cliff-like decline.

Except for a few Heavenly Immortals and Heavenly Venerable Ranks, the vast majority of immortal immortals will once again be shrouded in 'lifespan'.

10,000 years ago, the vast majority of the immortals decided to leave the earth. The immortal civilization disintegrated.

5,000 years ago, after the immortals completely left the earth and lost the aura and most of the advanced aura technology, human civilization returned to the primitive era.

3,000 years ago, the aura entered the stage of decline and calm, in addition to immortality, immortality also completely bid farewell to human beings, and human beings reverted back to a fragile natural race with a natural lifespan of less than 80 years.

However, the most important wisdom has not disappeared - and the return of the natural end brought about by life expectancy has accelerated the evolution of human civilization.

1,000 years ago, the aura was completely cut off, and the earth entered a period of decline in the aura. Human civilization has ushered in great development, and various technologies that do not require the use of aura have begun to take shape.

500 years ago, gunpowder weapons, artillery were invented,

300 years ago, the steam engine was invented.

150 years ago, the original form of computing devices appeared, but there was no soil for development.

100 years ago, flying devices were invented.

Seventy-five years ago, the rudiments of the modern computer were invented, and nuclear weapons were invented.

Fifty years ago, humans landed on the moon and nuclear power plants began to be commissioned.

Twenty-five years ago, humans landed on Mars.

Fifteen years ago, quantum computers were invented.

Twelve years ago, the four permanent members of the United International Council began to make world-wide strategic preparations for the 'Reiki Recovery', and the combination of modern technology and Reiki technology was the top priority.

Jeongkook Central Electronic Engineering Laboratory, chief researcher, the 'Soul Electronization Experiment' presided over by Yansheng Wu Chongwen, and its derivative 'Electronic Hades Project' were approved for funding.

9 years ago, Wu Chongwen's own soul electronic informatization was successful, but in the follow-up experiment, Zhengguo Central Electronic Engineering Laboratory, except for Wu Chongwen, all the members were annihilated due to experimental accidents, and only the data was left in the 'Daoyi Central Tianji Computing Hub', and the legal theory died.

The electronic soul experiment was halted and the data was sealed.

Five years ago, Wu Chongwen tried to copy his electronic soul body, but it was unsuccessful, but it played a great role in promoting artificial intelligence research.

2 years ago, Reiki was revived.

One year ago, the aura environment stabilized, and the soul electronicization experiment was restarted.

Five months ago, due to the optimization of the aura environment, Yansheng proved that in the aura environment, the electronic transformation of the soul would be more stable. The Central Committee of the Thirty-Six Saints did not approve its application for live experiments on death row inmates.

Three months ago, after consultation, the Central Committee of the Thirty-six Saints approved Yansheng Wu Chongwen's application for live experiments at its mid-2016 meeting, but the requirements must be completely voluntary biological entities, without any inducement, suggestion and brainwashing.

If it is found that the process does not comply with the norms, the experiment will be completely stopped, and at the year-end meeting, the committee will vote to deprive Wu Chongwen of his status as a saint.

Nineteen days ago, Yansheng found a test subject that met the requirements.

Twenty-three hours ago, the third electro-soul experiment began.

3 seconds ago, the test was successful.

———— 2016, September 29, 17:49:37.

Once again, the meaning of longevity is wiped out.

Because of wisdom, humanity has received the key to eternal life for all.

And the most important memory and wisdom of human beings will never be taken away because of death.

Go back a month ago.

"What matters most to a person is the physical life or the ethereal memory?"

Thirty-one-year-old Lin Yuanming had never thought about this question before, and if someone came to ask him about this kind of thing, he would definitely be impatient to blow people away from him, so as not to spoil his good mood for the day.

After all, he has a happy life, a good job and a wife who loves each other, where can a messy sage have time to think about such a thing?

However, he hated this kind of metaphysical thinking, and one day, he had to face the reality and think about it most deeply.

"Xiaoxin, it's time to go out."

The man with a sad face sighed and opened the door of the room, and said to the long-haired black woman who was sitting on the chair, frowning and thinking, and her appearance was beautiful and beautiful, "Today we are going to the hospital." ”

"Hmm." The woman called Xiaoxin nodded slightly, but she didn't stand up, but raised her head a little blankly and looked at the table.

On the table, there were rows of capsules and pills, as well as a glass of warm water that had cooled through

“…… Did you forget it again? ”

Slowly approaching his wife, who was a little confused and didn't know what he should do, Lin Yuanming gently picked up the capsules and pills on the table, counted out a few, and then put them in front of her.

Immediately afterward, he picked up the water glass, went outside and changed another glass of warm water, and held it in front of him.

"Let's take these pills first." He beat his spirits and said, "Your condition has been getting worse and worse recently, but I have invited the most authoritative doctor in Tiandu, and she will definitely be able to solve your problem!" ”

"Take the medicine ......"

Muttering to herself, the black-haired woman first stared at the capsules and pills in front of her, then turned her head expressionlessly and looked at Lin Yuanming.

She said with some confusion: "Why should I take medicine?" ”

"Also, who are you?"

There was no sigh, no anger, the sad man just smiled bitterly, and then patiently explained: "I am your husband, Lin Yuanming, we have been married for seven years and have known each other for fifteen years. And you are Li Xiaoxin, my wife. ”

"I'm Li Xiaoxin, and you're Lin Yuanming...... I am your wife, you are my husband......"

Repeating a sentence like this, Li Xiaoxin's frowning brows were soothed at first, and she seemed to accept this statement, but soon, her brows furrowed again: "No, we have been married for seven years, why don't we even have a child?" ”

Her posture became cautious and vigilant at this time, and the stool moved back slightly, obviously starting to guard against Lin Yuanming, a 'stranger'.

“…… Because a few years ago, because of work, you said that you don't want children for the time being, and after the revival of Reiki, we plan to wait until the environment is stable before having children. ”

Obviously, having explained many times, Lin Yuanming already had experience at this time, and he calmly recounted: "You...... There's something wrong with the brain, a little forgetfulness, and we're just going to see a doctor right now to fix it. ”

After answering a lot of questions one after another, the black-haired woman's mind began to gradually run normally, her expression first changed from distress, then to horror, and then to trembling with fear: "Yes...... I'm Li Xiaoxin...... How can I forget all these things......"

"Yuanming, what should I do? Even you and I will forget, ...... go on like this."

"It's okay, it's okay." Hugging each other and comforting his wife, Lin Yuanming cheered up and said: "It will always be solved, you are just a little forgetful at most, not a big deal." ”

"Don't worry, I'll cure you of this disease!"

“…… The brain dysfunction of Hyungaku is very serious, and the central nervous system has a lesion of unknown cause, even if it is treated according to the most advanced methods, it can only be relieved in a short time, but not radically. ”

In the hospital, although she has gray hair, she is still very energetic, and her tone is full of convincing The doctor showed Lin Yuanming a brain analysis report: "You see, Xinge's memory decline and disorders are very serious, although she can occasionally remember all her memories, but as the lesions worsen, her brain will no longer be able to read her own memories and lose the ability to remember again." ”

"That is, to completely forget everything, even to the complete death of the brain."

“…… Is there any treatment? Money is not an issue. ”

Lin Yuanming clenched his fists, at this time, Li Xiaoxin was resting in the ward, and he was alone with the doctor in the office: "I heard, isn't there something 'electronic brain' recently?" If you replace the diseased part with a mechanical one, you should be able to return to normal, right? ”

"Also, isn't there a soul!? As long as the soul is strong enough, even if you don't have a brain, you can think and remember normally, right?! ”

"Sir." The female doctor in her sixties slapped the table, calming down Lin Yuanming, who was a little excited, and she shook her head and said: "I also regret the situation of the Xiange, but not to mention the 'electronic brain transformation' itself, it is only an experimental technology now, and it has only been tested on large animals such as pigs, and the experimental results are not optimistic. ”

"The soul is a thing, but it needs an extraordinary level to barely have a practical effect—if you want to use the soul completely to think, unless you are practicing at the beginning of the relevant immortal spirit line, otherwise, you can only do it at the extraordinary high level, or even the peak. The Virtuous Pavilion has just awakened, and the role of the soul is better than nothing. ”

Speaking of this, the doctor also sighed: "Miss Li's condition is very rare, there are no similar cases in the world, the more similar is Alzheimer's disease, but Miss Li is very young, there should be no such disease...... We believe that this should be some kind of extremely unexpected natural mutation. ”

Lin Yuanming sat in his seat, and he stretched out his hand to cover his face.

There is no precedent...... Doesn't he understand what this means? It means that there is no cure at all, and no one has any experience with it!

Medicine is not omnipotent, in the face of brand-new, never-before-discovered incurable diseases, even if modern medicine has reached the point where it can almost be brought back to life, but no one can say that such a tricky thing as brain lesions can be completely solved.

What's more, even if the lesion is cured, but the memory is injured and the thinking ability is missing, what should I do?

One doctor shook his head, and the second also said that there was nothing he could do, for more than ten days, Lin Yuanming took Li Xiaoxin to travel all over the country, and he also went to several internationally renowned brain hospitals, but there were no exceptions.

"It's a pity......"

"We can't guarantee ......"

"At the moment, there should be no solution."

Even the brain hospital of the Commonwealth of Europa, which has the largest tone, only dares to say this: "As long as Mrs. Zun cooperates with the treatment, we can alleviate his symptoms and give him a few months of clear time to deal with the aftermath." Unfortunately, that's our limit. ”

Even if it is supernatural strength, it is impossible to clearly distinguish the difference between the diseased brain tissue and the normal brain tissue, and where the nerves hinder the memory reading and storage, and what causes it to not function normally, this is not a problem that can be solved by healing spells at all, even if it is forcibly cured, can the person who has lost all his memories still be regarded as the original person?

The most valuable place of human beings as a life is not the body, but the memories and wisdom recorded in the body. Even if it is a soul, a blank soul, it is no different from a jellyfish.

Finally, return to Jeongguk.

Coming to the ward in a daze, looking at his wife's side face sleeping quietly, Lin Yuanming couldn't help but recall the bits and pieces of his acquaintance with her.

The encounter between teenagers and girls is already more than ten years ago, the exchange of youth in the past, concealing the secret interaction of their parents, meeting to go to college together, meeting to face society, and meeting to spend life together...... They have made an appointment to live and die together, but no one expected that they would face such drastic changes before a third of their lives have passed.

Feeling something warm dripping from the back of her hand, Li Xiaoxin opened her eyes, and she saw a strange man with white hair on the top of his head, crying silently on the edge of his bed, and this man was wearing a ring on his hand that was exactly the same as his hand.

"Who are you? Why are you sitting on the edge of my bed? ”

When she encountered this kind of thing, she should have screamed in fear, vaguely she felt as if she had done the same thing before, but this time, an inexplicable softness surged through her heart, and she gently assured the other party: "Okay, okay, don't be sad, don't cry." ”

However, hearing such words, the man's tears fell even more - even when he was threatened by the other party in fear to call the police, he had never been so sad.

Because Li Xiaoxin has completely forgotten him, but there is still a little bit of the last residual warmth.

This is even more sad than total oblivion.

"We said we were going to the North Pole to see whales, we were going to Antarctica to see penguins, and we were going to circumnavigate the world......"

"How interesting the Tianchi realm is, you said you want to see the sea world, I found a good way, got the first batch of tourism qualification certificates, and it will be opened next year, this is our wedding anniversary gift......"

"We haven't been to the Beast God Realm yet, we haven't been to any of the secret realm ruins, we said okay, before we have a child, we have to finish all the worlds of the two, and then welcome the arrival of the third person......"

"There's still so much left to ......"

The black-haired woman listened to all this with some confusion.

She didn't remember anything.

Soon, Li Xiaoxin's condition deteriorated to the extreme.

"The patient may have a rapid spread of lesions at any time and die completely."

The first female physician shook her head regretfully: "And before that, she will completely lose all thinking ability and her brain will stop working...... The patient has actually died in the de jure sense since then, and our recommendation is to have a final treatment...... Then leave it to fate. ”

The red-eyed man listened to the news in silence, he had thought that he had already accepted it, but tears still appeared uncontrollably in his eyes, blurring his vision. Lin Yuanming's palm was clenched, but he didn't feel the pain, only an irrepressible coldness.

It's the end of September, the summer flowers have gone, and in this northern hospital, the leaves outside the window have begun to wither and fall, and the wind blows a gust of wind, and they dance in the air.

Of course, those are decisive leaves, which will wither when the time comes, and there will be no mud or water, but there are always some leaves, but they are gradually becoming haggard, and they are still on the branches, but they have begun to wither, and even if they dry up completely, they still do not fall.

But what's the difference between that and a fallen leaf?

What is the difference between a person who has lost all his memories and who dies?

Lin Yuanming thought that he would burst into tears and cry again like a coward, but in fact, he stood up and said to the somewhat surprised doctor in an unprecedented terrible voice: "...... Is there really nothing that can be done? Even if it's transformed into a lich, transformed into a necromancy, transformed into a zombie...... Isn't this kind of secret method possible? ”

"It's illegal, and it doesn't necessarily work."

In the face of Lin Yuanming, who was obviously paranoid, the doctor also knew very well that this was a hard-working person, and he didn't embarrass him too much, otherwise, those words alone would be enough to send him to the Security Bureau: "Even if it is a soul, it needs to be read from the brain at first." Memory's information, and the brain function of the Virtuous Pavilion has almost completely been lost, and before that, the soul of the Virtuous Pavilion was not strong enough to read independently, which means that even if it is transformed into all kinds of undead creatures, the Virtuous Pavilion is destined to lose all wisdom, leaving only the shell, or the soulless soul alive. ”

"Mr. Lin, just a shell, or just a soul, is not a human being. By today's standards, one must have a complete mind, with a complete body or soul, to be considered human. ”

"The body and the soul are optional, but the mind is ...... To put it bluntly, it is memory and wisdom, an independent thinking subject, that is the necessary factor. ”

- And the Virtuous Pavilion is missing the most important part.

Originally, the doctor planned to use such words to completely break Lin Yuanming's crazy fantasy - this is also for his good, even if Lin Yuanming is crazy and wants to attack the doctor, then don't look at her old age, in fact, she has also practiced the cultivation inheritance dedicated to doctors, and it is really not a problem to beat down a dozen young people.

However, just when she wanted to say this, she kept wearing it in her ear, and in the headphones that were connected to the hospital management center, there was a rather unfamiliar but somewhat familiar voice.

It was the voice of the plague saint.

[0011482, Dr. Zhang Ruizhen, hello, is the patient you are treating a patient with an unknown central nervous system degenerative disease?] And have extremely serious memory impairment, even life-threatening? 】

The extremely polite young voice is the voice of this generation of plague saints, and who does not know the practitioners in the medical sector? Dr. Zhang immediately replied, "Yes, that's right. ”

[Well, memory impairment, brain lesions, near-loss of memory...... But if the soul is intact and the body's vital signs are normal, is it simply a loss of mind? 】

[Not an individual who died of natural decay, but also has a dying desire to survive, at least it seems that her husband is willing to fight...... Looks like it's in order, it's time to inform my good friend. 】

Dr. Zhang could vaguely hear a fuzzy sound coming from the other end of the headset, and then, Lin Yuanming suddenly found that his mobile phone began to ring, and he looked at the mobile phone screen.

Caller ID, yes, '0-0-0'.

One in urban legend, it is said, is the number that leads directly to the Thirty-six Holy Central Committee.

He didn't know why, and subconsciously chose to connect.

And a voice that was so calm that there was no emotional fluctuation sounded.

[Hello, Mr. Lin. 】

[I have a plan here that can treat your wife. 】

……

On September 28, 2016, at 19:51:11, the soul electronicization experiment began again, and the test subject, Li Xiaoxin.

The experiment has obtained the consent of the person and her husband, and has not used any brainwashing and induction methods, but only to restore her memory and part of her thinking ability, and uses soul methods to temporarily strengthen her mind and body, and obtain a consent form with legal effect.

Step 1.

Injected with nanomachinery, the ganglia are temporarily connected, and the memory is transferred to the soul body. This step is irreversible, and the nanomachinery will remain in the brain, causing the body's immune system to fight back, as well as all kinds of unpredictable changes, and eventually, the organism's brain will die completely.

Failure to complete a one-time full memory infusion will result in the loss of part of the memory and personality, which cannot be recovered.

The first step was perfect, and the patient's brain lesions were extremely severe, but the memory intervals were not destroyed, only the reading was poor.

Step 2.

The soul body is remodeled to determine its self-concept. This step requires an extremely strong self-will, which is not strong, and it is very easy to get lost in past memories, and finally the personality collapses and becomes a pure information body.

Subject has a strong desire to survive, and the step was successfully completed.

Step 3.

The soul body is electronized and merged into the Hades server. This step requires a sufficient concentration of aura to support the transformation, which may have been an accident more than ten years ago, but in this era, it is not difficult.

The complete transformation of the subject is complete.

———— September 29, 2016, 17:49:37, the soul electronization experiment ended, and the test subject, Li Xiaoxin, successfully completed the conversion.

The Hades server is working well, and the matrix is being generated...... The interactive system was launched.

A blank piece of data on a plain.

"Hello, Ms. Li Xiaoxin"

The middle-aged man smiled at the black-haired woman who was a little overwhelmed, her body was still a little rough, and there were some frames off the screen, and said, "Welcome to the new underworld." ”

After a moment of silence, the black-haired woman said with some confusion, "Uh...... The experiment failed and I died? ”

"No, it was a success."

Yan Sheng said this, he raised his head and looked at the virtual sun simulated by the server, "You are still alive. ”

"And, along with the server, it will live forever."

— and that's just the first step.

Proving that 'Soul Digitization' is a perfectly feasible Saint, his heart is filled with joy, but he also knows very well that this is only the first step in a long journey relative to his true goal.

If the electronic underworld really wants to take shape, then it must inject a chip into the body of every baby born in Jeongkook. This chip will act as a second thinking organ outside the brain, assisting in the birth of the soul, and strengthening it, recording all the memories and thought patterns of the person.

Then, before the person dies a natural death, let him undergo an electronic soul conversion experiment, and through the chip, directly merge into the Hades server, and become an 'electronic soul'.

And if you die due to an accident or various reasons, at least the data in the chip can be imported into the electronic underworld, and you can also get an electronic thinking body that has no soul, but still has all the memories and wisdom of the deceased before his death, as well as his thinking patterns. There is no evidence that such a mind is any different from himself.

To put it bluntly, human beings are just complex machines composed of carbon-based macromolecular organic machinery, and how much more noble can a single body be than other mud and flesh? In the era of no aura, human beings without souls can still think, and no one can deny that the guy who is thinking is not a human being.

The most important thing is wisdom and memory.

The Hades server, on the other hand, can save it.

Even, if you abandon some theoretical soul purity habits, without any extraordinary power, the Hades server can still preserve the memory information of all people in the world, so that everyone, after death, will be 'immortal' with the server.

In this way, at least all the wisdom and memory of mankind, the most precious treasure of man, the triumph of man over nature, the whole condition of man proving himself to be human, will no longer be taken away by death.

In this way, humanity can overcome death—at least, it proves that it is possible to overcome it.

Life on Earth, after 3.8 billion years of evolution, has finally found another path to 'eternity' in addition to the immortality of Reiki.

[How?] 】

In the torrent of electronics in the distance, the young voice of an old friend came: [I am observing the information of patients all over the world all the time, and I can be regarded as finding a guy who meets the requirements for you. 】

Thank you. 】

For the words of the plague saint, the Yan saint thanked him seriously.

Then, he turned around and let Li Xiaoxin explore this huge matrix world, stepping into the electronic information flow himself.

- What exactly is death and life?

Now that I have a soul, the brain is nothing more than a database of entities, and I can even create a third computing element based on spiritual power.

But if I have a mechanical external thinking device, is the soul also necessary? Is it also a database of other spirits?

The soul, the brain, the mechanical brain, and many more thought organs that may appear in the future, which one is me?

And my body, my weapon, my tool, I can change it, just as I change my car, my clothes.

As long as we look at it this way, the so-called death is nothing more than an engineering damage caused by oxidation, a chronic erosion disease, no different from rust, which can be easily defeated, rewritten, reshaped, and even eliminated and prevented.

And the concept of life has been blurred, blurred, blurred, and blurred by death, making it impossible to grasp what kind of state can be considered 'alive'.

But what's the difference? I'm thinking, death or life, can't affect that. 】

The existence between the two, the electronic ghost, the immortal eternal, the Yansheng Wu Chongwen, walks in the network information.

He was thinking.

So he won't stop there.

It's like this world is gradually boiling.

The transcendent world, as it is, transcends the concept of mortals, step by step, beyond it.

The threat from the ancients has been cut off, and the cancer from within civilization has been eradicated.

No one knows which side of the fork in the road a civilization that has broken free from all shackles will choose, and no one can predict it.

The only thing that can be known is one thing.

——The torrent of the times has arrived, and no one can stay out of it.

Whether it is the king of divine beasts who looks at the earth with doubts.

Or an incognito, demonic believer lurking in the crowd.

Whether it is the leaders of the nations who are cautiously waiting to see the future.

Or do whatever you want, just move forward, get rid of evil, and other than that, the demon devouring lord who doesn't care about anything.

It's just a torrent.

Whether it's on the street or in the building, people are looking down at their phones and receiving information from the Internet. But there are already some people who have a personal agent terminal on their wrist that looks like a watch, but is thicker, and it can handle everything they want them to do, whether it's prompting the start of a meeting or organizing a schedule of activities, as long as you set up a program, it can do it.

However, in the military and major transcendent organizations, there are already special terminals that can directly connect to neural chips, even soldiers who have never learned spells and have only practiced basic spiritual power can operate spiritual power under the guidance of the chip and cast standardized spells.

One day, it will become the standard for human beings, whether it is an auxiliary chip or a personal agent terminal, it will become a part of the future human beings.

Under the frenzy brought about by the revival of aura, huge servers have been erected, and the development of the new generation of full-dive games has become a new slogan for many game companies to attract investment.

There is an endless stream of wealthy people who want to live forever through electronicization, or through human body transformation, so that their descendants will be superior from birth, and they will eventually appear, and they will inevitably appear......

Of course, all of this is just a small fight on Earth - the new alien exploration rocket is ready to go, and the world's major powers are looking at the endless space beyond this planet and the alien civilizations that exist outside the planet. The spacecraft exploration on the far side of the moon is the first step in the exploration of the sea of stars.

The black-haired young man, walking on the street, got into his friend's newly bought driverless electric sports car, listened to the gentle and polite tone of the on-board AI, he announced the name of a restaurant, and then raised his wrist and began to book a box in the terminal with his high authority.

"Let's go."

Hearing the young man's friend order, he turned his head and complained to his friend, "Yes, I'm in for a treat this time." ”

"Nope." The young man narrowed his blue and purple dragon eyes, and he said dissatisfiedly: "You have invited me for so many years, I suddenly want to treat me this time, do you still plan to refuse?" ”

"And you have to learn to get used to it, after a while, when we go to the Shenmu World, I will be the only one who invites you!"

"Okay, okay......"

In the midst of the dispute between the two young people, the on-board AI replied softly.

"Yes, for you."

Buzzing.

An insignificant start sounded, and the car started and sped off into the distance.

This is the end of the prologue.

and, the beginning of a new chapter.
