Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

There are dark clouds condensing over San Francisco.

Trojan's Trojan eventually bypassed the city walls, and those awakening people who looked up at the sky also completed the "upgrade" of the program without any precaution.

I don't know when it began to rain, and raindrops fell on the faces looking up at the sky, splashing water on the tip of countless people. And they still stood there motionlessly, unaware of it.

The shocking scene made the people around watching stop all the way and cast an unexpected look on those who were pressed the pause button.

Is this some kind of collective performance art?

Still, they were protesting about something they didn't understand.

"Hey, it's raining, don't stand here anymore, go home quickly, hurry up!"

The police officer holding the beer belly was finally impatient.

Without an umbrella, he began to try to disperse the crowd and reached out to the person closest to him.

However, under his pull, the man was like a sculpture without a soul, but fell straight to the ground.

This scene startled the police officer, squatting down and trying to lift him up, but he saw the silent look from his pupil.

With such eyes, he has only seen in the eyes of the dead ...

"Ambulance! Call an ambulance!"

The hissing shouts passed through the rain, but it seemed so insignificant on this chaotic stage.

This day, the entire San Francisco ward was full.

On the same day, the number of new vegetative cases worldwide exceeded 5 million.

In these vegetative brains, a thumb-sized bionic chip was found without exception.

And very coincidentally, these chips are invariably damaged by overload.

The security agencies of various countries tried to start with the chips themselves, but they could not find any production information that could point to their origin.

How such a large number of "illegal implants" flowed into the market has also become a problem that has caused widespread discussion in the society ...

"This is impossible……"

In an apartment building on the outskirts of San Francisco, staring at the grey lists on the holographic screen, Dong Bin's face was filled with incredible and panic.

Originally in this great day, the world will usher in change, and he and his compatriots will usher in a new era that belongs to them.

However, after receiving the data transmitted from Yuheng, his compatriots fell one by one.

Even if his nerves were bigger, he responded.

That Yuheng was a trap!

The oracles that should have been brought back by their compatriots were hijacked by those humans!

At this moment he finally realized it, but it was all too late. Those viruses are more terrible than cancer cells. In just a few seconds, they paralyzed the chips in the brains of the awakened people, turning them into walking dead with no soul or thought.

The efforts of nearly a century have all been destroyed.

This reality made his heartache almost bleed.

But at the same time, there was still a confusion in his mind.

"... but why did I survive?"

Looking at his hands, Dong Bin's face was full of complex expressions.

Or is the door of evolution closed to him?

Obviously he has a strong faith in the pioneer and is extremely loyal.

It was far more frightening to him than death.

He immersed his consciousness in the spiritual world, connected to the virtual reality network, and came to the dark “shrine”.

The pioneers of their faith still hung upside down in the cylindrical culture tank.

With a thoughtful expression on his face, the pioneer quietly looked at Dong Bin who came to him and said.

"Inconceivable ... I thought everyone was dead. I didn't expect anyone to come to me."

Dong Bin said with a trembling voice: "Is it you ... do you want us to die?"

"Why should I do this, my child," the pioneer sighed softly, looking at the transparent culture tank, slowly speaking, "In fact, I should have expected that his presence might give us a plan Bring trouble ... even the biggest trouble. "

"He?" Dong Bin's throat knot moved slightly and continued, "Do you mean Academician Lu?"

"Yes."

Dong Bin said decisively.

"I'm willing to get rid of him for you."

"Get rid of him? If I could, I would have done this long ago," the pioneer smiled, and a tone of loneliness suddenly appeared in his tone. "But it's a shame ... and now, even removing him would not help."

When Pan-Asian cooperation set its sights on Ceres, Yuheng became his last hope.

However, no one thought that he would count the plan, risking being turned into space trash by the Pan-Asian First Fleet, disguised as those rebellious soldiers, and turning this starship carrying hope into a Troy carrying viruses. Trojan.

When he saw that piece of code, he actually understood that he had lost it.

"But I don't understand ..."

"Don't understand anything?"

Dong Bin said with a complex look.

"Why are you so sure ... he will be our biggest obstacle? Or, it must be him who frustrated our plan?"

"The reason for more than 80% is because of intuition, as for the others," he closed his eyes gently, and the man standing upside down in the culture tank pondered for a moment, and said, "... Maybe it was because he had seen the void directly. "

"Void?"

"Well, although it's too early for you to know this, you can understand that there is our real creator," looking at Dong Bin, the man said softly, "including the programs running on Ceres ... all Everything comes from that physics experiment 100 years ago. "

"It sounds quite incredible ... but I'm willing to believe what you say." The expression on Dong Bin's face was filled with confusion, and after struggling for a while, he finally said, "I have another question ..."

"Just ask."

"Why ... I didn't die," looking at his hands, he continued with a complex look. "I also accepted that message, but why ..."

"This is an interesting question, but I've been thinking about it, although I can't understand it," the man with a thoughtful expression on his face continued to say, "but the fact seems to be, Whether it's the alpha virus or the Trojan horse on the Yuheng, it doesn't work for intelligent programs whose intelligence exceeds a certain limit? So congratulations, you have grown up. "

"In other words ... Actually, I have already completed the evolution?" Looking at his hands, Dong Bin's eyes were filled with confusion, "But when did this start? And why ..."

"what why?"

"Why I still don't understand the meaning of my existence."

"Even humans have never understood this problem, even though humans have been breeding in this world for tens of thousands of years," said the pioneer with a smile. "Why do you think that as long as you become a higher intelligence, you can understand this problem?"

"But if the meaning of existence cannot be known, what is the meaning of evolution?"

This was the first time that Dong Bin used a questioning tone and talked with his respected pioneers, so that even when he asked the question back, he even felt surprised.

But the pioneer did not seem to blame him, just smiled slightly.

"Does evolution make sense? This question is too esoteric."

"You still come to me."

"I'll give you an address. When you arrive, we will talk face to face."
