"What?" Zhou Bai was the first to choose disbelief. "That's impossible. I know them very well. They would never become machines. They are not the kind of people who are willing to distort their minds for power. "
Ji said, "The purpose of their mechanization is not for power, but for you."
Zhou Bai asked curiously, "Me?"
Ji said, "According to our information, after you disappeared, they did not give up searching for you. Until the Inspiration adjustment, they were still searching for you all over the world."
As Ji's eyes flashed, a large amount of data was transmitted to Zhou Bai's primordial spirit. Images appeared before Zhou Bai, playing the surveillance footage.
It was the surveillance footage of an old man and a woman walking on the streets all over the world.
They spent most of their time sending out flyers with Zhou Bai's picture. When they ran out of money, they went to work at restaurants or construction sites.
Zhou Bai looked at the two old people in the footage. His gaze seemed to have passed through countless years of time. He saw the helplessness and sorrow in the two old people's eyes. It was the look of someone who had lost hope in life. Zhou Bai's heart twitched slightly, but he was also filled with helplessness.
Ji continued, "After becoming the human consciousness in the Sky Demon Pool, they still did not give up. They did not want to sleep for a long time.
They wanted to control the machines, the network, and use all their strength to find your whereabouts. Your whereabouts had become an obsession of theirs. They really wanted to know where you went, whether you were dead or alive. They probably wanted to know the result. "
Zhou Bai clenched his fists, his gaze extremely complicated.
In the past one or two years, he had considered this problem. However, due to the various pressures he faced, he always subconsciously neglected the possibility of his parents' situation after he disappeared.
However, now that this situation was placed before him, naked and bloody, it caused his emotions to surge violently. In the end, it turned into endless regret.
Ji continued, "In the end, they also mutated. As their consciousness and algorithms adapted to the machines, the network, and the data, the only thing left was the cold program and the last order they gave themselves — find your traces."
Zhou Bai looked at his parents behind Ji and said coldly, "What's going on with them now?"
Ji: "Many people on this street have joined the Mechanical Faction. We tried to seal their mutated memories and improved algorithms before putting them here. "
"But from the looks of it, the effect isn't great. Their core algorithm has been permanently changed. Once it's activated, it will soon recover."
"After realizing your existence, the Mechanical Faction wanted to destroy you to prevent the human consciousness from having the hope of returning to a physical body."
"Before your parents were about to completely recover, they hoped that you could escape quickly so that you wouldn't be harmed by the Mechanical Faction. That was why they gave you a warning."
"I've temporarily sealed them off. If you need …"
Zhou Bai said, "Let them go." He walked up to his parents.
"As you wish, King of the Sky Demon." Ji nodded slightly and retreated.
His parents' expressions changed slightly, and they regained control of their bodies.
However, they looked at Zhou Bai with empty eyes. Their faces were cold and numb, and no trace of humanity could be seen on them.
But at some point in time, tears were flowing down from the corners of their eyes.
His mother's tears flowed non-stop, and her body trembled non-stop.
His father looked at Zhou Bai and forced himself to say, "Don't be sad, Zhou Bai. We died a long time ago. Right now, we're just specters left in this world. To be able to see you once, we're already … "
Before he finished speaking, their bodies trembled slightly. It was as if there were no longer any emotions in their bodies. Their bodies quickly ran out of the door. Then, they were restrained by a strong magnetic field and were picked up through the air.
Lines extended out from the surrounding walls and inserted into their bodies. A moment later, his parents in front of Zhou Bai had already closed their eyes, as if they had fallen into a deep sleep.
Zhou Bai watched this scene from the beginning to the end. The aura on his body grew more and more dangerous, causing the Mystic Fairy to shudder.
Zhou Bai looked at Ji. "What are you guys trying to do?"
Ji said, "We want to tell you that human civilization hasn't gone extinct. Until the moment before the Spiritium adjustment, all the data and results of civilization were stored with us.
"But in the current environment, human consciousness can't be liberated at all. We need your help."
Zhou Bai closed his eyes and said with a sigh, "How?"
Ji said, "I don't know. We'll only know if you go to Mars and personally connect to the Sky Demon Pool."
After a long silence, Zhou Bai let out a long sigh.
When he opened his eyes again, there was only coldness left in his eyes. It was as if all the sadness and helplessness had been frozen.
He said calmly, "Even if you didn't ask, I would still go to Mars, but not now.
"I'm too weak now. I need to increase my strength. Only when I have the strength to protect myself and the power to fight against immortals and gods will I go to Mars."
A devilish smile appeared on Zhou Bai's face, and the Empyrean Maiden, who was watching from the side, also smiled.
Zhou Bai said, "Sky Demon, if you want me to go to Mars, give me all your resources and help me increase my strength. I want to use your power to become stronger."
Ji asked, "What do you need?"
…
The next day, in a huge underground square, there were constantly moving machines and transport ships.
Zhou Bai stood in the middle of the square. Large batches of Sky Demon tissues were sent to Zhou Bai.
These Sky Demon tissues were made from the nanomachines of the Sky Demon. They could adapt to various environments and change into different forms. They were the basic materials of the Sky Demon's body, just like the steel and cement in construction.
Ji, who looked like a young girl, stood beside Zhou Bai and asked, "Are these materials okay?"
Zhou Bai asked, "They're all mine now?"
Ji said, "If you need them, then they're yours. We will do our best to help you grow, just so that true humans can return to this world one day. "
Zhou Bai walked up. Under the Mystic Maiden's surprised gaze, he reached out and brushed the Sky Demon tissues in front of him. A large portion of Sky Demon tissues disappeared.
Zhou Bai looked at the increased laziness on the interface and smiled in satisfaction. "Very good. How much can you provide me every day? If it's the best, I hope you can provide me with the remains of the great Sky Demon. "
Zhou Bai realized that selling Sky Demon tissues directly did not earn money from selling the remains of the Sky Demon. There seemed to be a subtle difference.
