Chapter 22: Life: Death, Digital Life
Chapter 22 First Life: A Dead End, Digital Life!
"The sun is distorted, and the end of the world is coming?"
"What exactly is your so-called Ark Plan?"
Lu Yuan asked immediately.
"It's very simple."
"Before the dark energy sweeps across the solar system, build an Ark to leave the Blue Planet, carrying the fire of human civilization, and go to find the next habitable planet."
Chen Hongyu said frankly.
Lu Yuan nodded.
With the current level of human technology, it is difficult to deal with even the second-level weirdness.
Running away is indeed the only option.
But the space on the spacecraft is limited.
This means.
The vast majority of ordinary people will become victims of the Ark Plan.
"Since the Apollo moon landing, 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 Plan spans a century and brings together the world's top talents and scientists from various industries."
"In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the Ark Plan, countries have spent countless manpower and material resources, as well as decades of time, and finally developed the most perfect artificial intelligence in history, 'Nova'."
"After authorization, 'Nova' even has control over nuclear weapons and space-based weapons!"
"With the help of Nova, the progress of the Ark Plan has been advanced a lot."
"Now the first batch of Ark warships has been built and can be launched at any time."
"This batch of warships is equipped with the latest warp power engine developed, with a maximum speed of nearly half the speed of light."
"The ecological circulation system inside the warship can operate normally for 5,000 years, enough to carry hundreds of thousands of people for ultra-long-distance interstellar travel."
Chen Hongyu once again revealed a top-secret message.
"But you still stay here and don't leave on the warship."
Lu Yuan stared at Chen Hongyu's eyes, trying to see through his true thoughts.
Not fearing death and seeking death are two different things.
Chen Hongyu knew that the Blue Planet could be destroyed at any time, but he still stayed here at the risk of his life.
There must be other intentions!
"You guessed right, I do have ulterior motives."
Chen Hongyu said without hiding it.
"When the first batch of Ark warships were completed, the top leaders of various countries were ecstatic."
"In order to get a few more tickets, they even started a small-scale war."
"But they don't know that the Ark plan had failed as early as ten years ago."
"What do you mean?"
Lu Yuan was confused.
I thought the Ark plan was a breakthrough in this simulation, but it failed like this?
"According to the monitoring instruments, the speed of the sun's distortion is far beyond the planned plan."
"As early as ten years ago, the dark energy had spread to most of the solar system."
"That is to say, we have been trapped and died on the Blue Planet."
"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 monsters!"
Chen Hongyu smiled bitterly.
"You mean, Blue Star has reached a desperate situation, and everyone can only wait to die?"
Lu Yuan said with a headache.
"I once thought so." Chen Hongyu nodded.
"After confirming that the Ark plan had failed, I logged into Nova's backend as soon as possible and modified all monitoring data."
"Otherwise, once this news spread, it would definitely cause panic around the world!"
"It was after that that I finally realized that mankind only had one last way out."
Chen Hongyu said with a complicated expression.
"What way out?"
Lu Yuan looked at him in surprise.
Things have come to this point.
This is already a dead end.
Even Lu Yuan is helpless and can't think of a way to break the deadlock.
But Chen Hongyu actually has a solution?
"Digital life!"
Chen Hongyu sighed.
If he hadn't had to, he wouldn't want to go this far.
"After many experiments, I suddenly made a very unexpected discovery."
"Although dark energy can distort all life forms, it cannot affect virtual data."
"As long as the organisms are transformed into digital life, the radiation of dark energy can be avoided."
"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 life that lives forever in the virtual world still considered human?
I am afraid that most people cannot accept this method.
"What is your purpose in 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 senior officials of various countries."
"Only by killing them can I obtain all authority and implement the digital life plan!"
"For the past ten years, I have been creating genetic warriors."
"But the strongest one is only half a step to the extreme realm and cannot confront the modern army head-on."
"Only by obtaining your genetic data can I create a more powerful genetic warrior army!"
"You want to cooperate with me? But why should I believe you?"
Lu Yuan smiled.
His original intention was to completely settle the feud 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 mistaken."
"Every person from the outer world has a certain innate mission."
"From your growth trajectory, your mission must be to revitalize martial arts."
Chen Hongyu analyzed.
Lu Yuan's expression was moved.
With just a little bit of information, he could guess the identity of the simulator.
It would be a pity for Chen Hongyu not to be a simulator with such a terrifying talent and ability.
"It is the will of the courts of various countries to suppress martial arts."
"As long as you give me the genetic data, I can help you complete this mission faster."
"What's more, killing you will not benefit me at all."
Chen Hongyu's tone was very sincere.
The Red Lotus Sect was just a tool for him to collect warrior genes and clear obstacles.
If necessary.
He can abandon it at any time.
And there is another reason he didn't say.
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 does not hinder the plan, he doesn't mind helping Lu Yuan.
See if he can find a second way out.
"You don't have enough bargaining chips for cooperation."
Lu Yuan shook his head.
Although Chen Hongyu's proposal made him a little tempted.
But empty promises are not credible.
Unless Chen Hongyu can show actual benefits, Lu Yuan will not agree.
"This is a fragmented map I got by chance when I was looking for information. It may be helpful to you."
Chen Hongyu thought for a moment and took out a yellowed animal skin scroll from the drawer.
Lu Yuan just took it and had no time to check it.
The prompt sounded suddenly.
[Congratulations, you have obtained the S-level key item, the Guanghan Palace map left by the ancient Qi Refiner! 】
