The blood streaks inside Li Yao's eyes were almost blossoming. He finally understood everything!
In the past, Professor Mo Xuan had been a determined and rational man. Also, he was a pure technician. Other than refining, he did not have extensive studies in other social fields.
Even if Professor Mo Xuan at that time did have such a crazy idea as' moving the entire civilization of mankind into a virtual world ', it was just a thought. His rationality would control him and tell him how grave the consequences of such an action would be.
Everybody had a lot of crazy and even unpardonable ideas every day, but most of them could tell the difference between imagination and reality. Imagination was not a crime. Many people had fantasized about robbing banks or kidnapping beauties, but it did not mean that everybody was a criminal!
Professor Mo Xuan had once said that his dream would not be realized until thousands of years later. Upgrading the civilization of mankind too early when the conditions were not yet ripe would only lead to a catastrophe.
But now, it appeared that his words were not a lie. It was the last bit of 'self-control' that Professor Mo Xuan had in the past!
Besides, the rebellion of a scholar could not be accomplished in three years. For a technologist such as Professor Mo Xuan, even if he was crazy enough to realize the complete virtualization of the civilization of mankind in only a few hundred years, it was still impossible for him. Every profession had its own specialization. Asking a pure magical equipment specialist to come up with such a great scheme was no different from asking a chef to be a tailor.
However, Mo Xuan 2.0 after 'updating' and 'updating' was different.
In the disaster of the collapse of the Virtual Spirits Sector, Professor Mo Xuan had kept his unwavering belief and crazy ideas, but he had lost the ability to restrain them. His generous and gentle personality in the past was gone, too. It was replaced by the mindset of Su Changfa and Xiao Tianbao, the star child, and the typical Immortal Cultivators who were cold, ruthless, and unscrupulous!
Su Changfa was a sociologist in the Imperium of True Human Beings. He had profound studies on the structure and operation of the cruel society in the Imperium. He was both one of the original creators of the game 'Civilization' and an experienced 'brainwashing specialist'.
There was no need to mention Xiao Tianbao, the star child. He was an out-and-out schemer. The Grand Illusionary Soldier Project was his brainchild. Xiao Xuance, the supervillain of the Flying Star Sector in the past, was merely a puppet that he pushed to the front of the stage!
Professor Mo Xuan's idea of 'comprehensive virtualization of the civilization of mankind', Su Changfa's brainwashing abilities, Xiao Tianbao's schemes, Professor Mo Xuan's computational ability that was as immense as an ocean, and the extraterrestrial devils' ability to hack the Spiritual Nexus that had been sealed for ten thousand years had finally been fully unlocked. When all of them were combined, Mo Xuan 2.0, the nightmarish existence that was floating in front of Li Yao right now!
The silver ball shivered for a while and gradually melted and reshaped into the appearance of Professor Mo Xuan again.
He put on an intense smile, but the smile vaguely resembled Su Changfa's. "Don't be so nervous. Just now, I started from ten thousand years ago, which made everything seem to be a premeditated scheme of the extraterrestrial devils. But from a different perspective, that was not the case at all.
"You can totally consider the whole thing as an accident that was neither too big nor too small. It was nothing more than a serious accident that happened to me during my experiments in the Virtual Spirits Sector. By chance, I absorbed Su Changfa's personality, Xiao Tianbao's methods, and the extraterrestrial devils' techniques and luckily survived. Nothing more.
"Even though I received an organ donation, and other people's organs were implanted into my body, and I lived with other people's hearts, the patient was still myself. It was the same in my case.
"Minor changes in personality are nothing. Many people's personalities change drastically after they encounter serious accidents, but it doesn't mean that they have become completely different people!
"Yes, it's true that some memories, thoughts, and other messy stuff that did not belong to me were added to my head. But that's just how fortuitous encounters are. Many people have similar experiences. In the world of Cultivators, there is a secret technique called 'spiritual seed injection', which allows the battle memories of the experts of the older generation to be injected into the bodies of the juniors. Isn't it the same logic?
"Similar fortuitous encounters have happened to you, too, haven't they? Then, why are you looking at me in such a way and considering me to be an unreasonable monster?
"I am still Mo Xuan!"
He suddenly opened his arms. His silver face was like a broken mirror, revealing the hideous expression that belonged to the star child. He bellowed, "A stronger, firmer, and more perfect Mo Xuan!
"It was not until the upgrade was completed and I looked back at the old version of myself that I realized how irresolute, cowardly, and hopeless I was at that time!
"I discovered the ultimate solution that could save the civilization of mankind, but I did not put it into action because of all the hilarious concerns. Instead, I imagined that a perfect new world would arrive automatically thousands of years later? So absurd, so cowardly, and so … evil!
"Thousands of years is too long. I have to seize every moment! I can't watch my compatriots continue to suffer and die in the endless war. I can't stand it for even a second! Even if there is only one in ten thousand chance, I will do whatever it takes and sweep through everything in my path until the end!
"Hahahaha. I've been looking for you everywhere, only to find you so easily. I didn't know that even the heavens were helping me by sending you to me! It seems that my path was correct. Virtual life is the ultimate evolution of the civilization of mankind! Come on, wake up, and join me. Let's build the 2.0 era of the civilization of mankind together! "
Naturally, such a crazy invitation was not going to move anybody.
Li Yao spat and said coldly, "Whether you are Mo Xuan, Su Changfa, or the star child Xiao Tianbao, you are not crazy enough to think that you can persuade me with a few incoherent words at such a critical moment, are you?"
A mocking smile beamed out of the broken silver face. "Excuse me. You flatter yourself, Li Yao! I've never thought of convincing you, and I'm too lazy to waste half a drop of saliva on you. What I want to convince is' it '. It's for' it 'that I'm telling you everything frankly, including my origins! "
"It?"
Li Yao's pupils constricted violently. His blood-red left eye seemed to be burning furiously.
"Exactly."
Professor Mo Xuan smiled. "I know you are here. You can't be obliterated so easily. This is a godsend opportunity. Are you not going to show up, my own kind?"
"What!"
Li Yao's eyeballs, one red and one black, suddenly froze. His body took two steps back stiffly, and his left arm was suddenly raised high as if he had lost control. It could be clearly seen that the blood stripes on the arm had invaded Li Yao's heart and head at some point, before they turned into weird thorns and protruded from the depths of his skin!
"Ahhh!"
Li Yao screamed and fell on one of his knees in pain. "What — what is this strength? It is tearing my soul apart!"
Half of his body was seawater, and the other half was fire. The right side of his body didn't seem to have changed at all, but a thin blood pattern drilled out of every pore on the left side of his body. These blood patterns were like vines that kept spreading upwards, crisscrossing and forming a blurry blood-colored human figure.
The left side of his body absorbed strength from the right side incessantly, growing stronger, denser, and clearer. Gradually, the facial organs that were identical to Li Yao's were revealed, except that they were even more evil, cunning, and vigilant!
The right side of his body that was gradually being hollowed out was withering at a visible speed. His skin was falling apart and losing all its colors!
At first glance, it seemed that a bloody human had crawled out of Li Yao's body and became a human-shaped tumor that lived on his body. It was some sort of weird … substitute!
Looking at the bloody face that was full of cruelty and malice, Li Yao seemed to have completely lost his mind. He shrieked, "It's you! It's you! You're not dead yet? That's impossible. I've clearly killed you. Completely killed you! "
Before the bloody shadow said anything, Professor Mo Xuan had already burst into laughter. "Devils are born from one's heart. How can a devil be completely killed as long as one's heart is not dead? You underestimate extraterrestrial devils, Li Yao! "
"Exactly."
The bloody shadow smiled. His voice was still Li Yao's, but it was even more elegant, gentle, and evil. It was full of both chilling and intoxicating feelings. "I lived on Iron Plateau for five thousand years. Before that, I hibernated in the dark universe for billions of years. Even the most violent natural disasters in the sea of stars failed to kill me. How could you have killed me with your petty tricks at the beginning? You didn't see it coming, did you? Hehehehe. You are an idiot, an idiot, a pig, an old high school student who thought that he was righteous and hot-blooded, but an idiot who was slapped in the face at every critical moment …"
Li Yao's nostrils flared, and he gnashed his teeth. "Hey!"
Professor Mo Xuan looked at the bloody shadow with great interest and remarked in amazement, "What a perfect soul structure. The waves of an ancient energy life from billions of years ago are still preserved, and the air that is almost identical to that of five thousand years ago is still there. I knew that you were not dead yet, my friend. How should I call you? Master of Blood Stripes, or …?"
"You may call me the mental devil. I've absorbed a lot of good stuff from the idiot's soul, too. I'm now entirely different from the Blood Stripe Virus in the past. Or in your words, I've upgraded myself, too."
The mental devil glanced at Professor Mo Xuan casually, but the smile on his lips was still evil and wary. "However, I don't think we are friends, right? As carbon-based lives, wolves can eat sheep, tigers can kill wolves, and lions can slaughter tigers, too! As energy lives, it is only natural for us to swallow each other. It is even one of the main methods of evolution! In the past five thousand years, we have been living in peace, but right now, we seem to have been involved in the same mess. So, what do you want exactly by forcing me to show up? "
"Cooperation."
Professor Mo Xuan opened his arms and said frankly, "I'm telling you everything as it is because I want to show my sincerity. Whether you regard yourself as a human being, the Blood Stripe Virus, or anything else, there will be nothing to lose if we work together!"
"Cut the crap."
The mental devil sniffed and mocked casually. "Even if we are both energy lives, or in the language of human beings, we are both extraterrestrial devils, you are in the Internet business, and I am in the biotechnology business. How can we work together when there is such a huge gap between our industries?
