Son of the Stars

Chapter 153 Special Changes
"Everyone has already set off. The farthest destination is No. 33 - he will be in position in about ten hours." On the other side of the world, in the nuclear submarine base in the Bay of Biscay, the residue on his face still remains S3C7, who was wearing graffiti, asked No. 42, who had his back turned to him, "Since you have all set off to the expected location, can the base expansion work be stopped?"

No. 42 did not answer directly. He came to his senses and opened his mouth, but said nothing.The omniscient Doctor of Truth rarely appeared in front of S3C7, looking anxious and concerned about gains and losses.

S3C7 circled around No. 42, his faded and blurred face looking a little surprised, "You don't look good. Is there something wrong with your body?"

No. 42 took two deep breaths, and then shook his head vigorously.The distracting thoughts in my mind were thrown away as if they had entities.He patted the non-existent dust on his white cloak and said, "The expansion project will continue. Just follow the supplementary construction drawings I sent you."

"Each room must be expanded into a regular hexagon, and pipes and circuits should be laid in the walls." S3C7 repeated the key points of the supplementary construction drawings, "I still want to remind you that such a room must be comfortable in terms of living comfort. It's still very poor in terms of functionality. The honeycomb building layout is a nightmare in actual use - the innermost room requires drilling into dozens of other people's rooms in order to enter..."

"The expanded base is not for human habitation." No. 42 said after hesitating for a moment. "They will be connected to a large number of culture tanks and use the existing genetic material data to cultivate enough clones."

"You and your brothers plan to kill all humans in the world. This machine has no objection to this - this machine is just a self-organizing robot focusing on the field of engineering." S3C7 looked at No. 42, and it turned He turned around and continued, "But for the sake of efficiency and the mental condition of the client, I hope you can explain the purpose and significance of your plan to me."

It circled around No. 42, and the two LED lights used to represent its eyes on its face flashed strangely. "Killing all human beings and then creating a bunch of clones is not an efficient operation." , it’s even a little silly.”

Regarding S3C7's doubts, No. 42 affirmed without hesitation, "You are right, this is indeed a very stupid behavior."

He looked at S3C7 and asked, "But can you come up with a better way? A better, safer solution?"

"Insurance...what?" S3C7 asked sideways, "What plan are you worried about, and why is the project seeking insurance?"

"No one has seen God, not even the original body and I." No. 42 sighed, "No one knows whether we clones can see God after death - the original body said we can't , many classics also regard the soul as the most important basis, but we have no way to clearly know whether the soul exists or whether it exists in our bodies."

He was really worried about this problem.

"So, I have to make some preparations and have a backup plan." No. 42 said to S3C7, "If the clones have no souls, then the humans cultivated in the base will not affect the restoration of God. The original body and all others Human beings can all be reunited at the knees of God, and we clones... can sing and serve God in the human world, which is good."

"But if the clones can enter heaven, and your clones have an impact on God..." S3C7 asked, "Can you then resurrect and return to the base to kill those clones?"

"I'm afraid not, my friend." No. 42 was obviously worried about this issue, but he shrugged with a calm expression, "If that happens, God will send revelations again to summon those children."

"It's like you leave the rest of the work to this machine." S3C7 complained very calmly, "You are planning to leave the rest of the work to your god." The truth is always not so good Popular, even if No. 42 really thinks so, he is too embarrassed to say it directly.

"No wonder you want to stay here - if you set off with the other brothers, no one will be able to do the subsequent work on the clones." S3C7 figured out the intention of No. 42, and then asked, "You are going to the world Everywhere, preparing to induce the largest collapse in history. Will this action have an impact on you personally? Will it have an impact on the replicas staying in the cultivation chamber?"

No. 42 smiled slightly, "Who knows - as long as I do everything I can do, the rest will be left to God."

"So, you can't say this casually on the phone." Tang Qinglong and Lu Chen faced each other. As they talked, Tang Qinglong boiled water with an extremely noisy electric kettle. "The accusation or the coalition government may want to Weaponizing the Great Collapse is a poke in the back of the coalition government - if they get desperate, they will do anything."

Lu Chen expressed deep agreement and strong agreement with this inference. After all, he had personally experienced the "interrogation" of the General Investigation Bureau.Now Lu Chen just wants to complete the task in his hand and then verify his speculation.If a more effective way to treat the Great Meltdown could be found, it would be well worth the effort.

As for other things... As long as they don't affect him much, Lu Chen really doesn't care too much.Especially after hearing Tang Qinglong say that he had reported it, Lu Chen had no reason to be a lone hero.

"Don't spend too much energy on the digital body thing yourself. It's just an experimental verification platform, not the final solution." Tang Qinglong poured the boiling water that had been boiled many times in the kettle into the sewer, and started working on it again. Another pot of water was placed on the stove, "You are one of the few clinicians in the research team, so you still have to be careful about the treatment plan."

Lu Chen nodded and said, "I do have some ideas that I want to test, but... I don't have enough patient specimens. The experiment needs to be reviewed by the ethics committee, and it needs to be carefully planned..."

"The coalition government is planning to weaponize the Great Collapse. Are you still worried about the ethics committee's review?" Speaking of the "weaponization" part, Tang Qinglong showed a wry smile, "If you want to start verifying your ideas and experiments as soon as possible , I have a little suggestion - don't go through any ethics review, go directly to the special approval channel of the coalition government. If you need some samples for use now... then don't go to the basement of the Institute of Physics to take a look."

"Are there any unused brain specimens in the basement?"

"Yes and no - the brains of Watanabe and No. 14 are in the basement. You can use them to practice first."

　This chapter is updated to ensure that your investment is not interrupted, and the content is now available.

　　The beginning of the new book is basically finished. If nothing else happens, I will start writing it this week. The goal is to have at least [-] words in the first week.

　　The title of the book has not yet been decided, but it should be a fairly interesting story.
