Chapter 73 New God (2)
Single cell with the highest level of guards. The room has all the necessary furniture, the bed is soft, the sheets are clean, and there are even some books on the shelves to prevent the life of the prisoners from being too monotonous.
Zhang Xun knew that this was the cell that Adam had prepared for him, and it had been prepared for a while. Adam sensed his suspicions and anticipated that one day their relationship would take this far.
Adam has private dealings with the Round Table, and may even collaborate. Zhang Xun is curious about who is the internal response responsible for connecting with Adam, is it Jian Mo?
Zhang Xun doesn't want to recall, because after knowing the truth, all memories are tainted by suspicion. He was lying on the bed, looking at the white-painted ceiling in a daze, with his hands lightly pressing on his chest.
Across a thin layer of shirt, the box pendant was still lying on his heart.
He didn't want to think about the past, so he could only replay the last words Adam said to him in his mind over and over again.
Could Adam be right? Is the future of human beings to lose their individuality and evolve into a huge collective consciousness?
How to reconcile conflicting consciousness? Will there be relatively weak consciousness being swallowed up and obliterated, or suppressed in the deepest darkness
And, is that still alive? Losing the body, the ability to perceive the world, to make independent choices, to experience life, to have personal memories, to be aware of self. Friends, lovers, family members, all the joys and sorrows that may be experienced, all disappear. What's the difference between that and being dead?
Moreover, without the support of the body, emotions and survival instincts, pure reason cannot survive for too long. The structure of human consciousness is completely different from AI consciousness. It is a phenomenon that has been gradually formed and perfected in the continuous evolution of hundreds of millions of years, based on various chemical reactions in the body. It is a mysterious mandala that emerges from chaos and randomness. Without emotions and instincts, human consciousness cannot produce desires, so there is no goal, no motivation, and no meaning of existence.
Who can make this kind of decision?
Zhang Xun doesn't understand, Adam and he have experienced so much together, isn't there anything that Adam likes to miss? Is it because he is not doing well enough that he only sees the suffering of being a human being? That makes him want to make all human beings get rid of their human bodies and become something else
Is everything between them not worth mentioning to Adam?
Zhang Xun clenched his hands tightly and pulled the shirt into a ball. He didn't want to think about it, but he couldn't help thinking about it. Recalling every moment of their tenderness, every kiss they exchanged... Recalling Adam's completely trusting, focused and gentle eyes when he looked at him, as if Zhang Xun was the most important person in the universe, as if Zhang Xun was his whole world.
Zhang Xun swallowed hard the pain of choking in his throat, and his eye sockets were sore again.
He still has the last line of defense, although he doesn't know if Adam has removed that one as well. He didn't take the last step for a long time because he still couldn't make up his mind.
He is a coward.
At this time, the sound of gears turning came from inside the steel plate door of the cell. Zhang Xun immediately sat up from the bed, wiped his eyes vigorously with his sleeve, took a deep breath, and prepared for everything he might face.
After the door opened, the person standing at the door was not the Adam he thought.
The sixth chief, Miller, smiled at him in a neat white suit. Two guards entered the room first, handcuffed one of Zhang Xun's wrists to the iron railing of the bed, moved a chair and placed it opposite Zhang Xun, and stepped back to the side. Miller walked up to Zhang Xun and looked down at him, like a victorious general contemptuously looking at his defeated general.
"If you obediently handed over the control back then, you wouldn't be here now." Miller sat down on the chair with his knees folded, tilting his head slightly with an expression of Zhang Xun.
Zhang Xun's eyes were burning with cold anger, "You agree with what Adam did?! You are destroying Paradise Lost!"
The sixth chief raised his hand. The two guards exited the house simultaneously and locked the door. Miller snorted when he heard the sound of the lock being locked, "Destroy Paradise Lost? Is there anything else to destroy Paradise Lost?"
Zhang Xun stared at him in disbelief, not sure that these words really came from the mouth of the most powerful chief in the round table.
Miller leaned back in his chair, raised his head and looked at a light bulb hanging from the ceiling, his brows were a little tired, "Paradise Lost has no future. You should have seen it too, Eden wants to destroy us at any time. .We humans are too weak and limited to be Eden's match."
"So you took refuge in Eden? So you took the civilians who were supposed to be protected by you as test subjects?!"
"It's not a refuge, it's just a temporary cooperation. You may not understand, but this is actually our opportunity." Miller said in a contemptuous tone of simple-minded primitive people, "I'm fed up with the powerlessness of being born as a human. No matter what we do, we will never be able to compare with AI. Because they are more sophisticated and ruthless than us, and they don’t need to eat, sleep and waste time. Only faster than Feather Snake City
Only by creating a super consciousness, a super consciousness belonging to human beings, can we truly compete with Eden and artificial intelligence. "
