Non-human Gene Complex

In 1860, CANC was established.

Sixty years ago, Zero One was over a hundred years old. He knew when he would die, so he recruited two proud students. In his heart, the future of CANC was entrusted to them.

Zero One gave a choice, who is willing to abandon the body, occupy the Iron Dogma City with his own consciousness, become an intelligent life, live forever, even if he wants to die.

Without any hesitation at all, Themis made a choice.

At that time, Joshua hesitated a little bit.

Themis thus became Supreme Leader and inherited Containment 001.

Many people know of the existence of this containment object, because it is Zero One's containment object, but they only know that the containment object is very powerful, but no one knows what it is. Zero One's secrecy and cover-up are very thorough.

While Themis became the preacher of Iron Dogma City, she also became the only person who knew about Containment 001.

Because Zero One died the next day at the age of one hundred and eight.

Before he died, he told Themis this secret, describing the omniscient consciousness.

In the secret conversation at that time, Zero One said something: "You are my most proud student, bar none. I believe you will not forget my teachings, the iron dogma will last forever, without exception."

"From now on, this city will be called the Iron Dogma. It is your true bondage. You will be imprisoned in this container forever... Eunomia, I believe you can do it."

The Steel City didn't have a name, but it has since. The soul of Themis is imprisoned here for eternity, or perishes.

At first glance, this passage does not make much sense, it is just an exhortation.

But Themis is so clever, he heard Zero One's hint.

The iron dogma is his cage, and Themis is the cage of No. 001.

The reason Zero One chose Themis, who was more determined, and the host of Iron Dogma City as the supreme leader, was that he hoped Themis could reject 001's temptation and seal it in his memory.

Themis understood this meaning at the time. When Lingyi 001's truth was revealed, he became an intelligent life and was extremely calm. He himself was unwilling to sign the contract. After hearing this, he understood even more.

He understands his teacher's vague expectation of inconsistency.

Seal 001.

Zero One relied on Containment No. 001 to fix CANC, but at the same time he became involuntary.

That contract made him have to tell the next CANC leader about the existence of 001, as if this organization specialized in handling contained objects had become a puppet of 001.

Zero One tried his best to make CANC get rid of 001, so he began to formulate iron-like dogma and carefully cultivate the next generation of successors.

Themis and Joshua are the best among them, and Themis is undoubtedly the more in line with the Zero One plan and the safer candidate.

He wants to let the agent's identity end from himself, so he can only use this kind of hint, hoping that Themis can use his own thoughts to become 001's containment measures.

Zero One's entrustment was not in vain, Themis is undoubtedly the real preacher, he has the courage to make a completely different choice from his teacher.

He had the courage to correct his teacher's mistakes with a cold heart, and rejected the eternal contract.

Themis spent her whole life burying this secret, and for this reason she did not hesitate to imprint herself with her thoughts. Just like the Glamorgan family, the Wallfacers Lan Mu met back then, they are all the same kind of people.

Even if CANC was destroyed, even if it encountered an irresistible enemy, Themis did not break this seal and turned to 001 for help.

But fate is like a big net, he failed in the end, Qu Bo read his memory, and Lan Mu read Qu Bo's memory.

Lan Mu frowned, feeling very bad.

"How did Zero One know about the 001 containment? And when he died, why was he so upset and helpless?"

In Themis's memory, there is another episode, that is, the day after the selection of the heir, Zero One died.

He obviously already knew the date of his death, he had arranged everything properly, and he was already waiting there to die, but before he died, he showed a very unwilling expression.

This scene troubled Themis a lot, he couldn't understand Zero One's last hint.

In Lan Mu's view, Themis' persistence is actually useless. If 001 can really change the world, it would be too naive to keep it in memory.

Especially Lan Mu felt that 001 seemed to have looked for him too.

It was the existence who secretly wished to sign a contract with him when the heroic spirit transformed.

If the two are really the same existence, it means that Themis' behavior is meaningless.

"Maybe Zero One's last annoyance was to find out that Themis misunderstood him?"

"Or maybe there's something else I don't know? It's a pity that Qu Bo didn't finish reading Themis' memories. This person has too much information."

Lan Mu soon found the memory of Qu Bo's communication with 001. Qu Bo did communicate with him, and it was a hidden existence.

But to Lan Mu's surprise, Qu Bo also rejected the contract.

"Excellent, Qu Bo is really calm. Facing the unknown contract, he suppressed his inner desire."

"To be precise, Qu Bo's desire for a perfect creature is so strong that he is afraid that after becoming a puppet, he will no longer be able to fulfill his dream."

If 001's purpose conflicts with Qu Bo's understanding, then it will be too late for him to regret it.

But here, Lan Mu became even more confused, because at this moment his experience conflicted with that of all other insiders.

That is the contract that is unknown to others, but he obtained the content of the contract in advance.

"Erasure all existence that hinders human development."

"Facing different people, contracts are different. Is it because I am strong enough that 001 told me the content in advance?"

Lan Mu raised his head and tried to contact containment 001.

In just a few seconds, the notification came: to become His agent and erase all existence that hinders human development.

"what do you?"

Lan Mu asked, but the answer came was that it claimed that it would allow him to use the contents without restriction.

"Sure enough, it's the same one."

The communication came to an abrupt end here. If he didn't sign the contract, he wouldn't be able to ask anything, and the other party would simply ignore him.

"It's a great temptation, but I refuse."

The second time he refused without hesitation, at least for now, as long as he refuses to sign the contract, then 001 has nothing to do.

Lan Mu combined all the known information and came up with his own understanding.

Blindly believing in other people's memory will only be disturbed by too much subjective consciousness.

First of all, the three major characteristics of the 001 containment do exist, but they are definitely more than that.

In addition, the so-called interference reality achieved by combining omniscience and infinite energy, Lan Mu suspects that without a proxy, 001 cannot interfere with reality at all.

Otherwise, with so many contained objects in reality, why does it rely on human hands to restrain them?

Where does infinite energy exist? If it can be born out of thin air, it means that it doesn't need an agent at all, and it can dominate the world at will.

Apparently, one of Themis' guesses was right, that it was severely limited in its abilities when no one knew about it.

That being the case, it must be useless without a proxy.

Just like just now, when Lan Mu rejected it, the other party had no temper at all, like a machine without emotions.

In this way, the so-called unlimited use of the storage is also based on the premise of signing a contract first, so it was actually the Heroic Spirit who modified some of the characteristics of the storage, not it.

The second point, from the perspective of 001 for the time being, it is a…containment object that stands in opposition to all containment objects.

Whether it is guiding the establishment of CANC, or hoping to erase all the existence that hinders the development of human beings, this is the group of hostile containment objects.

So why did Themis think it was the source of the containment? Create it yourself, and then find a way to fight against it? Enough support?

Maybe Themis had some kind of direct evidence, but it was not read by Qu Bo.

The third point, since 001 is so powerful, why are there so many restrictions?

Especially the biggest limitation, that is why there are so few insiders.

It is so little that it may be up to now, and there is no substitute.

If it had a representative now, then Lan Mu would have encountered a strong enemy long ago.

But no, this shows that Themis and Lan Mu are indeed the last insiders, and may even be the only insiders in countless worlds.

"Perhaps... the containment was created by stealing 001's power?"

"In this way, it can be explained as the source of the containment, and it can also explain its hostile relationship with the containment..."

"However... this still can't explain the containment objects such as life balls and pyramids."

Lan Mu thought for a long time, then suddenly woke up, and almost forgot another important thing.

"The countdown to the revenge of the abyss... Judging from the situation in memory, it seems that it will be in the near future."

Lan Mu hurriedly turned into a golden mouse and began to search for Otto's hiding place.

He must stop the Dark Portal.

"I should be far beyond the devil now, right?"
