As for the main computers of the human brain array, we had considered freeing them from the very beginning. Because the Mellowans relied on the special attributes of the soul to control the starship, they did not completely destroy the corresponding souls of the human brain array, only suppressing the intensity of their activity to a very low state. In other words, there was a possibility that the human brain array could be resurrected.
And yet, there would be a lot of trouble if they were truly resurrected.
The technology of fusing multiple consciousnesses and resurrecting in the form of a new individual was nothing new. There were many examples around him, and the one that left the deepest impression was Sandora's adjutant back then, and the current commander-in-chief of the Fleet of Vengeance: Warlord PL-15. He was a collective consciousness reborn. Those commanders who had followed Sandora for many years, but later sacrificed themselves on the battlefield and could not be resurrected, voluntarily gave up their independent personalities in order to continue fighting for their queen, choosing to be reborn in the form of a collective consciousness and continue to charge to the frontlines. The Warlord's legendary experience was a typical Schilling heroic officer image: loyal, brave, sacrificing everything for the Empire and monarch, never stopping for victory — but his experience could not be reproduced in any mortal species other than the Shiring Apostles.
There was a reason why the Shiring Apostles could return to the battlefield in the form of a collective consciousness after death. Their souls were special: powerful, resilient, and filled with an unstoppable will. Even after death, as long as the soul remained, a Shiring Apostles could maintain their complete self, and if it was for a worthy goal, the soul could achieve it at any cost, including giving up itself. Secondly, the Shiring Apostles were a race where every individual grew up in a spiritual network. Their minds were independent yet unified, and with their own will, the entire race was driven by a higher collective will. This collective will laid a second solid foundation for the collective consciousness reborn: even if they gave up their independent personality, the souls of the Shiring Apostles would not dissipate due to losing themselves like mortals, because they still had a collective will to hold on to. This was something no other race possessed, and perhaps even the Protoss did not have such a special talent.
Apart from that, the Shiring Apostles' special ability to think independently and turn on and off emotional and rational thinking also affected their souls from the body. A purely logical Shiring Apostles was no different from a computer. Since it was a machine, it could be connected in parallel, which was why there were many collective consciousness reborn among the Shiring Apostles.
One last note: The above characteristics are only for the use of the Shiring Apostles. Mortals recklessly using it may cause cerebral palsy, so please be cautious …
This was the problem. The Shiring Apostles could create a new individual in the form of a collective consciousness while retaining all the memories of the original, but ordinary races could not do it — at least not on such a large scale. As far as he knew, a few ordinary races indeed had the ability to fuse their consciousnesses, but those were all small-scale projects. A few good friends who could synchronize their consciousnesses when they were alive might be able to do it, but that would require a huge risk, and the largest scale would not exceed two digits. This was completely different from the situation with the Grand Warlord. Like the Xi Ling Apostles, who could easily merge thousands of consciousnesses into one and be reborn, and could even expand according to the situation, it would be a crazy thing to say to an ordinary race...
However, there was a mortal race that was an exception, and in his impression, it was the only one he knew: the Fourth Exile Fleet's "Parliament."
The female leader was an amalgamation of the entire race of the Yonad people — their numbers were in the tens of thousands. At the same time, according to what he had heard, the Yonad people were a carbon-based species. In other words, their physical bodies did not have many of the special talents of the Xi Ling apostles, such as pure logic mode and the like. The strength of their individual souls could not be compared to the Xi Ling apostles, who stuffed themselves into the research to strengthen a new branch race when they had nothing better to do. In other words, they had a way to achieve what the Xi Ling apostles had done with the "quality" of the souls of mortals. Of course, I also knew that the birth of the "Parliament" relied on the Yenad race's talents. The latter were a mortal race, but they also had special talents. At the very least, compared to the Shiring Apostles, they looked closer to ordinary races, didn't they?
If they knew how to successfully fuse the fragile mortal souls together, then perhaps the innate talents of other races could be made up for through technological means.
"Compile a copy of the information about the human brain mainframe, including their complete life form, soul structure, and current situation. The more detailed, the better. Then hand it to the 'Parliament.'" I looked at Alleria. "Also, when do you think we can dismantle all the human brain mainframes?"
"Probably a week. That's the fastest. After all, we have to ensure the survival of the human brain arrays. Every dismantled mainframe has to be made into a matching support system. We don't have the corresponding production equipment, so it will take some time."
"Oh, that's fast. Before that, I have to meet the 'Parliament' …" I thought about it and felt that was all. "Speaking of which, the Fourth and Fifth Fleets' impression of the Empire should have improved a lot. It's a good time to go and see what's going on … The Merovans were lured out by the Fifth Fleet."
After that, I understood some other things about the city in the Heavenly Realm. Seeing that it was already quite late, I took Alleria and Alaya with me and bid farewell to them since we probably wouldn't be able to make it back in time for dinner. Although I had a sudden thought before I left that I wanted to see what Alleria looked like when her wings were uncomfortable, I thought that she might be one of my few subordinates who had a good impression of me, so I didn't dare to say it out loud. At most, I'll just let Alleria show me how to do it …
It was really late when I got home, but just as I expected, my family was still waiting for me to eat. Seeing that Sandora's eyes were green, I felt apologetic. The time spent in the Celestial City was a little longer than I had expected. I didn't expect the whole family to be waiting for me. This was family.
To express my apology, I could only punish myself with a glass of wine. Sandora punished herself with seven bowls of fried paste noodles, although I didn't know what she had to punish herself for. Lamp came up curiously and wanted to secretly drink, but was dragged away by her sister. Then, a small incident occurred: Liliana, out of mischief, poured some beer into her sister's glass.
Currently, her sister was sleeping on the second floor.
Alleria was sitting next to me. This was originally the seat of Pandora or Visca, but now that the two of them had been successfully persuaded by the braised pork on the other side of the table, Alleria was sitting here. The angel sister was very interesting when she sat on the chair. Because she couldn't retract her wings, she had to wrap them around the back of the chair, the tips of her wings reaching the ground. Now, Little Bubble was crawling under Alleria's seat, trying to grab those glowing feathers. Speaking of which, after my sister and I'd persistently educated Little Bubble, she now knew that she couldn't just pluck the feathers off other people's wings. However, this didn't stop her from rubbing herself on those glowing feathers.
Alleria flapped her wings lightly to avoid Little Bubble's scratches, while fanning me. She had a faint smile on her face, and I could tell that she was very happy.
"You seem to be in a good mood," Icetis looked up at the angel sister and commented as though she was experienced. "Yeah, drawing circles on the ground with the tips of your wings. I also have this little habit when I'm in a good mood. Those with wings are more or less the same …"
"I'm not …" Lin, who was eating, lifted her head and said weakly. Icetis immediately rolled her eyes at her. "I mean those with a wingspan of less than a hundred meters. If you draw a circle, you would be able to dig out the underground water. "
"Oh …" Lin replied weakly, before lowering her head and continuing to eat.
"It's because I saw a lot of new compatriots," Alleria said as she lifted her left wing. I saw Little Bubble hanging from her wing. That little fellow had already stuck her entire body to the feathers. "Starting tomorrow, there will be a lot of work to do. Training new soldiers and so on … Yeah, I haven't done something like this for tens of thousands of years. I feel nostalgic."
I extended my hand and plucked Little Bubble from the angel sister's wing. At the same time, I heard Alleria's sigh, and I instantly felt apologetic.
It seemed that I had unknowingly neglected Alleria's loneliness.
Apart from when she needed to fight, she would always sleep in my mental world. Even when she came out to move around, she would seem lost and idle. But this wasn't because Alleria was lazy by nature.
For a very long time, Alleria was the only Schilling Angel in the new Empire. She had no soldiers, no compatriots, and there wasn't even much work that she could help with. The Concept Fragmentation made it impossible for us to create new angels. As the only individual of her species, Alleria could only spend her days hanging in the mental network, acting as a computing server. Other than that, there was nothing in the new Empire that she was familiar with. On the battlefield, Alleria was active as a powerful combat force. But without soldiers, without a fleet, what could a powerful individual general do? At best, she would be a super soldier.
But Alleria was a general.
It wasn't until the Concept Fragmentation was over and we found the lost half of our home planet that Alleria gradually became lively again. She began to enthusiastically devote herself to the construction of a city in the sky. Every day was fulfilling and happy. And today, when she saw that her new compatriots had finally gathered again, she finally revealed her most cheerful side.
Usually, my angel sister would always be smiling, as if she had never been in a bad mood before. She had such a gentle personality that I had forgotten that she could also feel wronged and depressed. She never complained about anything. She just silently did what she could do, and then spent the time alone in the corner that seemed to never end. Back then, when the Concept Fragmentation occurred, she was only a part of the world's arbitration organization. In order to ensure the integrity of the system, she was thrown onto the technological side of our home planet. At that time, she should have known what she had to face. Even if the best-case scenario were to occur and she survived, she would have to face a future where she would lose all her compatriots. But even so, she didn't say a word.
It wasn't until today, when I saw my angel sister showing such a cheerful smile to her new compatriots and her lively behavior for the past half a day, that I realized that I had neglected many things.
But in this situation, even if I wanted to apologize, it would be a little awkward. Thus, I could only look at the angel girl beside me with a little guilt. "Well, although I don't know what's going on, I should punish myself with another glass of wine …"
Sandora, who was sitting across the table, suddenly raised her head and raised her bowl. "Oh, just nice, I'll punish myself with another bowl of fried paste noodles …"
The angel sister's smile became even more radiant …
That night, as expected, the fox didn't return for the entire night. She must have spent the entire night with her old friends. Everyone knew the habits of those monsters. They would go crazy whenever they saw someone. As long as there was something worth celebrating, they would party and play all night long. Anyway, they didn't have many proper things to do. Even the few monsters that did business in the City of Shadows hung a sign that said, "This shop is open for business according to fate. Customers pay their own bills." How could you expect them to live a regular life?
The next morning, when I washed my face and went downstairs, I almost tripped on the stairs. I lowered my head and saw a big golden furball lying on the last step of the stairs. The fox must have rushed home early in the morning because her ears were still wet from the dew that hadn't evaporated yet. She probably wanted to go upstairs to sleep. Although she often slept by the door, the fox actually had her own room on the second floor. In the end, she fell asleep after climbing the first step.
I bent down and pulled the fox's big tail. Surprisingly, she didn't wake up. She just moved her body to a more comfortable position and curled her other tail to cover her body. When I got closer, the fox's body reeked of alcohol. I almost stumbled when I smelled the mixture of alcohol and a girl's body fragrance. Then, I saw that there were footprints on her tail. It wasn't strange to have footprints, but it was her own. How did she do that? Did she trip on her own tail while walking? And she even walked backwards?
How crazy was she last night?!
Based on the fox's current state, she wouldn't wake up for a while. When I went to pull her ear, she only mumbled in her sleep and her ears trembled twice. My trump card had failed. I planned to carry her to a place that wouldn't get in the way. But then I thought about it. Although she had nine tails and was a canine, she was still a girl. It wouldn't be appropriate to move around. If Sandora or Shallow Shallow saw her, they might bite her for the rest of the day.
Of course, more importantly, when faced with a monster girl whose tail was larger than her body, he really couldn't find a place to start. He couldn't be like Xiaoxue, who didn't know what to do and dragged her all the way to the second floor, could he?
Just as I was looking at a furball girl who was sleeping in a daze, not knowing what to do, Bryndis suddenly appeared at the staircase of the second floor. The female hoodlum who had just woken up rushed down from above, not giving anyone a chance to stop her. Then, I watched helplessly as she jumped down the stairs and finally stepped on the fox's tail.
The fox's scream woke everyone in the house up …
"Sigh … Although it's my fault for being careless, the main reason is that this guy is sleeping on the stairs …" Bryndis was slightly sober from her crazy state in the morning. She scratched her head awkwardly and said. The unlucky fox was still running around in the living room, mumbling something. I was sure of one thing: she was completely sober now.
In the end, Fox finally calmed down. Due to the pain, she tiptoed in front of me and showed me her tail, full of resentment. Of course, Sister Bing was from the God Race, so she had a purifying aura. She had reached the so-called Untainted Realm, so there weren't any footprints on her tail. However, I still nodded at her sympathetically. Then, I expressed that I wouldn't be able to defeat that female pervert if I didn't use my ultimate skill.
Thus, the fox immediately raised her tail and smacked it on my leg to express her displeasure. She probably knew that I was the only one in the house and wouldn't hit her …
"Alright, alright, I won't give you food if you keep messing around." I grabbed the girl's tail to calm her down. "Let me tell you something. Did you see the new girl in Monster Town?"
"… En?" Fox raised her head and looked at me in a daze, as if she had completely forgotten the reason why she went back to her parents' house yesterday. Seeing her hopeless appearance, I immediately felt a headache coming on. I took out Ding Dang from my pocket and placed it on her head, "Ding Dang, help her sober up. Even a yawn from this fellow is 42 degrees! What's with a fox who likes to drink so much! "
After struggling for a long time, the fox finally woke up and remembered that there was an unfamiliar girl in Monster Town. She shook her head when I asked, "I didn't see her. I don't know where she went either."
"You didn't see her? Did she leave the town? " I was surprised. The monsters were usually a little messy, but they always guarded their territory very strictly. This was probably an inherent characteristic of a group of 80% wild animals. I didn't expect the person who suddenly appeared to disappear just like that!
"Ah, I think she stayed in the town for two days. She said she was a local or something …" The fox scratched her ear. "We thought she was a Grand Priest from the Great Temple or a caretaker of the Departed Garden. After all, she could move around freely in Avalon, so we didn't ask much."
"You've more or less met all of Avalon's current management and clergy members, as long as they're leaders." I glanced at Fox. "Normal soldiers and low-level cultivators wouldn't leave their base, nor would they go to Monster Town to eat and stay for free for two days. More importantly … there haven't been any new personnel entering Avalon recently, so it couldn't be a new high-level Grand Priest or the commander of the Departed Garden. Do you understand? "
The fox wasn't stupid. In fact, she was quite smart. It was just that she usually lazed around at home, giving people the impression that she was an idiot. This time, she instinctively thought that everything was under the control of the owner … En, the landlord, so she didn't think too much about it. She just happily went back to her parents' house for a night. Now that I had explained the situation to this point, she immediately understood what was going on.
"Could a place like Avalon also be …" The fox girl's ears perked up, the fur on them slightly standing on end.
"In theory, the probability of this happening is zero. It's impossible for someone to sneak in, but it really is a little strange now." I looked at the fox's golden eyes. "Go to Avalon again and find Artemis … En, the smurf one. Let her check the flow of information in and out of Avalon. Let me inform the Departed Garden and the local garrison. Liliana — "I glanced at the Grand Priest loli who was wearing a teddy bear pajamas as she came down from the second floor." Inform the Great Temple to have them scan the entire territory of Avalon and find anyone who isn't registered. "
After delegating these tasks, I exhaled. The next step was to see if I could find the "stranger" who suddenly appeared.
