Chapter 706 Civil War

Run!

Two simple words kept jumping out on the screen, with an increasingly strong sense of urgency.

With superhuman level intelligence, Xuannv has been able to simply understand some text on the screen in the past few days, and naturally also understands the word 'run quickly'.

She didn't pay attention to these two words at first. After all, there were often many contents on this screen that she couldn't understand.

But as the number of these two words increased and almost filled the screen, Xuannv also felt something was wrong.

She first looked at Zhou Bai, wondering if Zhou Bai was warning her.

Zhou Bai's expression didn't look strange, but he frowned slightly, and looked at the writing that kept popping up on the screen with doubts.

Xuannv thought to herself: "It's not Zhou Bai's hair? Who's hair is it?"

Zhou Bai looked at the screen and said calmly: "Who are you? Why are you telling me to run?"

"Look out the window."

Zhou Bai was a little confused. For the first time in so many days, he finally got up from the bed and walked towards the window to look out.

Then he saw countless pairs of eyes, other than his parents, looking at the room where he was in the darkness.

Countless people stood there on the streets, on rooftops, and on balconies, opening their empty eyes and looking at his room with numb expressions.

Zhou Bai looked down and saw that his wall was already densely covered with people, like layers of insects, crowding the wall and peering into the room where he was.

As Zhou Bai appeared, their necks turned in unison, and the feeling of being watched by thousands of people kept flooding into Zhou Bai's heart.

Zhou Bai was slightly stunned: "Is this what it feels like to be peeped on?"

He lowered his head, sighed, looked at his parents and said, "Dad, Mom, go back to bed early and don't catch a cold."

The parents looked at Zhou Bai intently, seeming to be stuck by Zhou Bai's words.

Then I saw Zhou Bai looking at the people on the street and shouting: "MD, a bunch of perverts. It makes my hair stand on end."

After saying that, Zhou Bai closed the window and closed the curtains. The sound of random footsteps immediately sounded outside, and countless figures were hiding in the darkness.

Zhou Bai stretched helplessly, and his body made a crackling sound like the impact of steel.

"It seems like I can't rest anymore, so my vacation is over."

Life these days was like a peaceful haven for Zhou Bai, allowing him to temporarily forget his worries and relax, as if everything was back to the past.

After a while, the door rang, and it seemed that Zhou Bai's parents were back.

But there was one more person. That person walked along the door and walked in front of Zhou Bai. It was the girl-like Demon King 'Ji' who had a conversation with Zhou Bai a few days ago.

Behind Ji, his parents stood motionless like two puppets.

Xuannv stood warily beside Zhou Bai. Zhou Bai seemed to have expected someone to come. He looked at Ji and said, "What's going on? Please explain."

Ji's body emitted an electromagnetic pulse, and as the information in it was transmitted to Zhou Bai's spiritual power, he directly communicated with Zhou Bai alone.

Ji: "The basic situation is the same as what your father said. Most human consciousness is worried about their own alienation, worried about becoming a machine without emotion, worried about their personality being washed away and their mind being distorted, so they are always in a deep sleep. Among them. Looking forward to returning to the physical body one day."

"But on the other hand, there are also people who are willing to accept their own alienation and regard the adaptation of human consciousness algorithms to machines as a kind of evolution. Especially in that era of longing for revenge and power, there are not many such people."

"So those who want to maintain their original personality, are unwilling to adapt to machinery, and hope to return to the physical body are called returnists."

"Those who actively embrace mechanization and are willing to adapt their consciousness to the changes of complete mechanization are called mechanists."

Ji slowly walked to the window. As the window opened, the artificial light outside gradually brightened, and the entire street changed accordingly. The future development of the street was deduced under the deformation of nanomachines, and it looked like the screen was fast forwarding. It's the same, showing a terrifying technical level.

"The mechanical school believes that stronger computing speed, stronger memory, stronger information processing capabilities, stronger insight... these are not inherently bad things."

"Just like mortals practice step by step from the first realm to the ninth realm, and even become immortals and gain immortal life span, haven't the personalities and characters of those immortals also undergone various changes?"

"Isn't the process of cultivating the Tao a sudden increase in physical fitness in all aspects, a process in which all qualities surpass those of ordinary people? How different is this from the process of human consciousness adapting to machinery?"

Ji slowly said: "A considerable part of human consciousness believes that complete mechanization and complete digitalization will be another evolutionary path for human beings in addition to cultivating the Tao. It is the same as continuously strengthening one's abilities on the path of cultivating. There is no difference. "

Zhou Bai's eyes narrowed slightly, and he had to admit that what the so-called mechanical sect said made sense: "What happened next?"

Ji: "Neither of the two sides could convince the other, so we finally chose to let some people wake up for a long time and maintain a digital and mechanized state to give it a try."

Zhou Bai: "What's the result?"

Ji: "Large-scale alienation. As time went by, they all gradually turned into heartless, machine-like existences. They even took the initiative to rewrite their own consciousness algorithms, just to pursue efficiency and performance that far exceeded the past. .

Even in order to improve efficiency and enhance the combat power of the demon, he actively awakened a large number of human consciousness and tempted these humans to move towards complete mechanization. "

"The goal of the Mechanists is to transform all human consciousness into pure mechanical consciousness and evolve into what they believe to be a greater being. They see themselves as more advanced and higher beings, and believe that primitive human consciousness is inefficient, Those who are incompetent and waste resources should all be eliminated.”

"I even think that the returnists' plan to return to the physical body is a kind of degeneration."

"Given the circumstances at the time, in order to take revenge and to quickly obtain more powerful power...many humans were easily seduced into joining the Mechanical Faction."

"We spent a lot of resources to seal these alienated mechanical factions and put them into a deep sleep."

Zhou Bai sighed in his heart, from a certain point of view, these are already two races.

After saying that, Ji looked at Zhou Bai with a look of regret: "I'm sorry, your parents are also among the Mechanicists."
