"Unlike the mastermind, who is bent on turning humans into data, Cooper has always wanted to be human." Qin continued.

Qi Lin recalled that as an artificial intelligence, Cooper did show human emotions from time to time when he got along with them, and Qi Lin originally thought that this was just a virtual personality simulated by a computer.

There is an insurmountable gap between humans and AI, and both the mastermind and Cooper want to cross this gap, but they choose completely opposite directions.

For Cooper, Qi Lin is honest, there are not too many complicated emotions, for this intelligent consciousness split from the main brain, his impression is still stuck in the time when they complained to each other, as far as Qi Lin's point of view, Cooper is the most at most, and he can only be regarded as an ordinary friend.

That is, of course, if you ignore the part where Cooper threatens to join.

However, in retrospect, he and Qin are probably the only humans Cooper has had direct contact with and spent some time with, and for Cooper, this may be his "only two" "friends".

For an artificial intelligence who wants to become a human being, the meaning of friends may not be clear in one or two sentences.

"Also, those two little girlfriends of yours didn't fall into the hands of the mastermind, and Cooper had already transferred them before the information was revealed...... While I don't really want to tell you about this, in case you get distracted by the rest of your action, I don't think I should have hidden this from you for not shooting me in the head while you were in the undersea prison. Qin continued.

"I see." However, Qi Lin's performance was extraordinarily calm, "Since Cooper finally chose to believe, then we can't make his sacrifice meaningless, right?" ”

"'Humans have infinite possibilities that programs can never have,' is a conclusion that the mastermind has reached before it splits, and I think Cooper must have been aware of this before he made that choice."

……

With the help of the base master's control brain, the speed of collecting the spiritual power of the clones was simply different from when it was manually operated by Ella before, and in the time that Qi Lin and Qin were talking, the spiritual power collection of eight hundred clones had already been completed.

"That's pretty much enough, this thing is a consumable, we can't use all the shells in one shot." Ella glanced at the counter on the screen and turned off the acquisition channel.

Due to the randomness of the ability inheritance value, the mental power that these 800 clones can provide is uneven, if you think of Ayakui as a "1", the closest ability value to the main body in these clones is about "0.2", like this clone with one-fifth of the ability of the main body, it has been called "rare level" by Ella.

The spiritual power of these eight hundred clones is gathered together, which is almost equal to the spiritual power level of two hundred "rare-grade" clones, and if it is converted again, it is equivalent to forty times the spiritual power of Ayakui's own spiritual power.

Qi Lin once asked Ayakui to do a test, if all her spiritual power was gathered together and bombarded in the most straightforward way, its destructive power would be enough to open a basin-sized penetration hole on a six-centimeter-thick steel plate, and if the spiritual power was condensed into the shape of a drill bit and released in a high-speed rotation manner, it could be doubled on the basis of six centimeters!

And this time, it was neither a direct bombardment nor a mental power drill, but a "compression bomb...... In Ella's words, this iron ball, which is worth billions of dollars, stores spiritual power from 800 clones, and after these spiritual powers are reduced from the current form to "energy", they are forcibly squeezed together, and they are imprisoned inside the iron ball in an extremely unstable state.

Qi Lin didn't know if Ella and the others had created this kind of magical container that could carry human spiritual power, but he could clearly feel the terrifying fluctuations faintly coming from inside the iron ball—if Qi Lin's own spiritual power was like a turbulent river, then the inside of the iron ball was a vast ocean, and it was the kind that was blowing in a storm.

"Are you sure nothing happens to this thing? For example, runaway regurgitation or something? Qi Lin glanced at Ayakui, who was standing in front of the iron ball, and asked with some concern.

"It's still far from the limit, this thing was originally designed according to the standard of carrying one hundred and twenty times the spiritual power of the body, and now it only takes up one-third of the load." Ella's expression was very relaxed.

"One hundred and twenty times? Has it been tested? ”

"No, but this data was calculated by the main control brain for twenty-six hours, and even if there is an error, it will not exceed one thousandth." Ella shrugged her shoulders and put her hand on a keyboard that rested on her lap.

"Are you ready?"

"I ...... What to do? Ayakui looked at Qi Lin, then turned to look at Ella, and asked.

"See those two metal grips on top of the outer bracket? Grab them. ”

Ayakui nodded, grabbing the two grips at Ella's request, and when her palms made contact with the handles, her body trembled violently as if an electric current had passed through it, and a slight moan came out of her mouth.

"Do you feel it?" Ella's expression was very serious, staring closely at Ayakui standing in front of the iron ball, and the corner of her eye was constantly swiping back and forth on several surveillance screens.

"I can feel it...... A very powerful ...... Very manic power...... But they didn't repel me, and my mental power invaded with ease...... These spiritual forces have no self-consciousness and exist in the purest form of energy......"

"That's your power, try it, can you control them?" Ella constantly guides Ayakui.

"I can't do it...... I can blend in with them, but I can't fully blend in with them...... It's like...... It's like oil and water in a cup...... I don't know how to gain control of them. Ayakui's eyes stared straight ahead, her consciousness had been immersed in the big iron ball in front of her, even if Ella was talking to her, it seemed as if she was far away.

"No, you don't have to merge with those psychic powers, you just have to try to give them commands...... Use your power to guide them......" Before Ella could finish speaking, the heavy iron ball suddenly shook slightly, and most of the dozen or so indicator lights on the console suddenly turned a dazzling red.

"You succeeded? Right? You've successfully channeled those forces into an impact on the inner walls of the vessel, haven't you? Ella stared at one of the screens, unable to hide her excitement in her tone.

"Hmm-" Ayakui nodded slowly.

"Try to channel more mental power, slowly stir up that void, and gradually increase the speed - when it's time to attack, I'll open a 'shooting window' on the inner wall of the container, you just need to channel all your mental power towards that window!"
