Chapter 22: One Life: Mortality, Digital Life!
“The sun is distorted, the end is coming?”
“What is your so-called Ark Plan?”
>Lu Yuan asked immediately.
“It’s simple.”
"Before dark energy sweeps across the solar system, build an ark and leave the Blue Star, carrying the fire of human civilization to find the next livable planet."
Chen Hongyu said calmly.
Lu Yuan nodded.
With the current level of science and technology of mankind, it is difficult to even deal with the second-order weirdness.
Running away is really the only option.
But the space of the spaceship is limited.
This means.
The vast majority of ordinary people will become victims of the Ark Project.
“Since the Apollo moon landing, various countries have discovered the existence of dark energy.”
“The panicked elites of various countries have reached a secret agreement and formulated the Ark Plan.”
"The Ark Project spanned a hundred years and brought together the world's top talents and scientists from various industries."
"In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the Ark Project, various countries spent countless manpower and material resources, and decades of time, and finally developed The most perfect artificial intelligence 'Nova' in history."
"After authorization, 'Nova' even has control over nuclear weapons and space-based weapons!"
"With the help of Nova, the progress of the Ark Project has been advanced a lot."
< br>“Now the first batch of Ark battleships have been built and can be launched at any time.”
"This batch of warships are equipped with the newly developed warp power engines, and the maximum speed can be close to one-half the speed of light."
"The ecological cycle system inside the warship can operate normally for five thousand years, which is enough to carry Hundreds of thousands of people make ultra-long-distance interstellar travel.”
Chen Hongyu once again revealed a top-secret news.
“But you are still here and did not leave on the battleship.”
Lu Yuan stared at Chen Hongyu’s eyes, trying to see through his true inner thoughts.
Not being afraid of death and seeking death are two different things.
Chen Hongyu knew that Blue Star might be destroyed at any time, but he still stayed here at the risk of his life.
There must be something else!
"You are right, I do have ulterior motives."
Chen Hongyu said without any secret.
"When the first batch of Ark warships was completed, the top leaders of various countries were ecstatic."
"They even did not hesitate to launch a small-scale war in order to get a few more tickets."
" But they didn’t know that the Ark Project had failed ten years ago.”
“What do you mean?”
Lu Yuan was confused.
I thought the Ark Project was the breakthrough for this simulation, but it failed like this?
“According to monitoring instruments, the speed of the sun’s distortion far exceeds the planned plan.”
“Dark energy has spread to most of the solar system as early as ten years ago.”
"In other words, we have been trapped and died on the Blue Star for a long time."
"Once we leave the atmosphere, we will be exposed to the radiation of dark energy. Before we leave the solar system, we will become Deformed monster!”
Chen Hongyu smiled bitterly.
"You mean that Blue Star has reached a desperate situation and everyone can only wait to die?"
Lu Yuan said with a headache.
“I thought so at one time.” Chen Hongyu nodded.
“After it was confirmed that the Ark Project failed, I logged into the Nova backend immediately and modified all the monitoring data.”
"Otherwise, once this news gets out, it will definitely trigger panic all over the world!"
"It was after that that I finally realized that there is only the last way out for mankind."
Chen Hongyu said with a complicated expression.
“What’s the way out?”
Lu Yuan glanced at him in surprise.
So far.
This is already a fatal situation.
Even Lu Yuan was at a loss and couldn't think of a way to break the situation.
But Chen Hongyu actually has a solution?
“Digital life!”
Chen Hongyu sighed.
He wouldn't want to come to this step if he didn't have to.
“After many experiments, I suddenly made a very unexpected discovery.”
“Although dark energy can distort all living things, it cannot affect virtual data.” “As long as By transforming living things into digital life, you can avoid the radiation of dark energy."
"And this is the only way to continue human civilization!"
Lu Yuan was silent.
Compared to genocide, this path is not unacceptable.
However.
Are digital beings who live forever in a virtual world still considered human beings?
I'm afraid most people won't be able to accept this approach.
“What’s the purpose of telling me so much?”
Lu Yuan asked.
“I need your genetic data.”
Chen Hongyu said frankly.
"Most of Nova's authority is in the hands of high-level officials in various countries."
"Only by killing them can I gain all authority and implement the Digital Life Plan!"
"In the past ten years Since then, I have been building genetic warriors. "
"But the strongest person is only half-step to the extreme level and cannot confront the modern army."
"Only by obtaining your genetic data can I create a more powerful one. Gene Warrior Legion! ”
"You want to cooperate with me? But why should I believe you?"
Lu Yuan smiled.
Originally, his original intention of coming here was to completely settle the grudges between the martial arts world and the Red Lotus Sect.
But who knew that the situation would develop into what it is now.
“In fact, there is no conflict of interest between us.”
"If I'm not wrong."
"Every outsider has some kind of innate mission."
"Judging from your growth trajectory, your The mission must be to revitalize martial arts."
Chen Hongyu analyzed.
Lu Yuan looked moved.
The identity of the simulator can be guessed with just a scratch.
Chen Hongyu has such terrifying talent and ability, it would be a pity not to become a simulator.
"Suppressing martial arts is the will of the imperial courts of all countries."
"As long as you give me your genetic data, I can help you complete this mission faster."
"What's more, killing you won't do me any good."
Chen Hongyu's tone was very sincere.
The Red Lotus Sect is just a tool he uses to collect warrior genes and clear obstacles.
If necessary.
He can throw it away at any time.
And he still didn’t say part of the reason.
He once thought that digital life was the only hope for the continuation of human civilization.
But the appearance of Lu Yuan made him see new possibilities.
Therefore.
As long as it doesn't hinder the plan, he doesn't mind helping Lu Yuan.
Let’s see if he can find a second way out.
"You don't have enough chips for cooperation."
Lu Yuan shook his head.
Although Chen Hongyu’s proposal made him a little moved.
But empty promises cannot be trusted.
Unless Chen Hongyu can provide practical benefits, Lu Yuan cannot agree.
"This is a fragmented map I occasionally got when I was searching for information. It may be helpful to you."
Chen Hongyu thought for a moment and took out a yellowed animal skin roll from the drawer.
Lu Yuan just took it and didn’t have time to look at it.
The prompt sounded suddenly.
[Congratulations, you have obtained a key S-level prop, the Guanghan Palace map left behind by the ancient Qi Refiner! 】
