Chapter 389 The Definition of Death

With the sudden return of consciousness, Baninger suddenly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a strange world where water and sky connected, stretching as far as the eye could see.

A cold touch came from under his feet. Baninger looked down and saw that he was standing barefoot in the water. The completely still water just reached his ankles. As his feet moved slightly, a series of ripples slowly spread.

At this time, Baninger realized that he was wearing a summer training uniform, and his trouser legs and sleeves had been "carefully" rolled up to prevent them from getting wet.

At the same time, a series of memories appeared in Baninger's mind like a floodgate - the burning battlefield, the bloody broken arm, the lifeless Memphis, and the Boss falling from the sky.

This was his last memory before his death. Baninger was very sure of this, but he had no idea why he was in such a state now.

"I remember what happened. I must be dead?"

The veteran looked around in confusion. There were no buildings or reference objects, only the endless water extending out.

"Do you think I went to heaven?"

Baninger suddenly had this thought in his mind. After all, the scene in front of him was somewhat different from the scene of 'hell' that the world imagined.

Although the boundless water surface in front of him didn't have any charm, it at least gave him a feeling of tranquility and relaxation.

"Damn you, you didn't expect someone like me to go to heaven? In the eyes of ordinary people, shouldn't I be a murderer?"

"Unfortunately, this is not heaven, and you are not dead~"

An unfamiliar female voice sounded from behind. Baninger turned around almost instantly and assumed a defensive posture. At the same time, his right hand moved towards the non-existent 'weapon rack' behind him like muscle memory.

It wasn't until the moment he got empty that the veteran realized that he was not wearing a combat exoskeleton or powered armor.

Baninger stood up straight and looked at the 'person' who suddenly appeared behind him.

This is a woman who appears to be a human floating in mid-air. She is wearing an extremely gorgeous purple dress, with long black hair hanging straight down her waist. Her face is so beautiful that it seems that it is not human, as if it was directly modeled.

"Who are you? Why do I appear here? What do you mean by what you just said? I clearly remember that I died in the battle."

Baninger asked a series of questions to the woman in front of him like a barrage of questions. He was also very curious about this 'person' who suddenly appeared and was able to communicate.

"For 'death', I personally have some different definitions from you. From my perspective, you are not dead, you just changed to a different life form~"

The woman smiled and said:

"As for me, I'm not a stranger. In fact, we have interacted with each other every day before."

When Baninger heard this, the confusion in his eyes became more serious. He was very sure that he had never seen such a woman before.

You must know that he spends 90% of his time in the teaching team. The only human men around him are Roma men. If such a woman appears, he will not have any impression.

Such thoughts continued until the woman in front of him spoke again.

"Today's check-in has been completed. Thank you for your contribution to Atlas Group."

"Your personal performance statistics for this month have been completed. Please check them in time. If you have any objections, please contact the Group Human Resources Center."

"Warning, high-energy reaction detected, please find a bunker in time!"

A series of familiar voice prompts sounded in Baninger's ears as the woman in front of him opened her mouth slightly.

Especially after hearing the final tactical warning, his whole body was shaking as if he was having a PTSD attack, but Baninger quickly controlled his body and calmed down after taking continuous deep breaths.

"How is it? Does it bring back your memories? Do you know my identity now?"

"I probably guessed that you should be the management AI of the group."

Baninger said with some uncertainty. After all, in his previous knowledge, Atlas Group's management AI did not seem to be so anthropomorphic.

"Forget it, let's introduce myself formally." The woman shook her head and fell from the air. She tapped her toes and the water surface rippled, and then she said:

"In front of you is - Atlas Group Data Center Director, Group Administrative Center Management Personality, Group Combat Force Auxiliary Personality, Amber's Eternal Love, Digital Leviathan, God in Charge of Virtual Space, and the First Person in History Strong artificial intelligence Lilith~"

When he heard "Amber's Eternal Love", Baninger couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and at the same time sighed in his heart, "He is indeed a Boss, and his scope of coverage is far beyond ordinary people's imagination."

Baninger calmed down and asked: "So you are the AI ​​that is hidden and watching everything in the legend within the group?"

"Hmm~"

"Then can you explain to me what my current state is and where this place is?"

"From a human perspective, you are indeed dead, but from a digital life perspective, you have just been born. As for here?"

Lilith raised her head and looked around, then continued:

"This is the virtual space I control, and it is also where you digital beings will live in the future~"

"you?"

Banninger caught one of the key words. According to Lilith, it seems that the "digital life" she mentioned is not just her own.

"It's your teaching team."

Lilith raised her hand and waved it. A virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of Banninger, which showed more than a dozen storage cards inserted in a terminal.

And the veteran immediately recognized that these were the storage cards that were put into the microprocessor behind their necks at that time.

According to the statement at that time, these cards were used to extract the combat data of their teaching team, but now it seems that it is not so tense.

"Of course, several team members were directly blown to pieces by the heavy particle cannon, so I couldn't let the "worker bee" retrieve their storage cards. I am also very sorry for this. I didn't think it through."

Lilith lowered her head slightly, with a hint of apology on her face.

"Does the boss know about what you did?"

Banninger suddenly asked, and his eyes became serious and sharp.

"Oh? You are very perceptive, Captain Baninger~" Lilith rarely showed a trace of approval.

"Master naturally knows about extracting combat data. These digital cards are now in the data laboratory of Infinity.

But Master is not aware of turning you into "digital life", or it can be said that this is an experiment, and only I know it.

And you are also the first "digital life" I awakened."

"What exactly do you want to do without telling the Boss?"

Baninger asked with a bad face. It is obvious that he does not like Lilith's behavior.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you are really loyal. The Master will be moved to death when he knows it~"

Lilith looked up and down at the veteran. She really didn't expect that the veteran who had just died in battle would actually stand by Amber.

"But don't worry, I will never betray the Master~Everything I do now is to help the Master, but it is just kept secret for the time being~"
