Prison Island

Chapter 623 Joshua Compromises

Joshua didn't expect that he would feel so depressed as soon as he escaped from the predicament.

He was ready to show his skills, but Gao Xin was so strong that it was like a blow to the head, and he felt as if he had never been in such a long time.

Of course, being in control at this moment does not mean that he was really captured alive.

It would take at least another hour for Gao Xin to defeat him completely.

Joshua still has the strength to resist, but it is meaningless. He will be defeated with the naked eye.

Gao Xin has caught up with him in every aspect except physical size.

However, Gao Xin made up for this size difference by relying on his consciousness. Although he still had the holy object, the Spark of Freedom was restrained by the high energy of the Demon.

Especially since Gao Xin's Demonic High Energy has no upper limit on energy storage, so he doesn't even have an energy advantage.

Emperor Gao Xin is completely on the same level as him in terms of hard power.

What is it like to be on the same level as Gao Xin? I can only say that I can't win.

It's really a moving mystery, a quantum puzzle.

The insight analysis and big data modeling that AI is proud of are basically useless against the unpredictable Gao Xin.

"Joshua, you lost?"

Liushen couldn't believe his eyes and instinctively pushed out a palm of blue ice-like torrent.

He went straight for Goshen, trying to help Joshua out.

Gao Xin smiled, threw Joshua aside, and marched forward, punching forward.

This punch was earth-shattering, and the torrent of ice and snow was blasted into recoil, submerging the six gods at a faster speed.

Seeing this, Liushen did not retreat but advanced, rushing towards Gao Xin at high speed.

He was obviously about to be defeated by his own moves, but he didn't care. This was actually a result of his trust in the devilish Cangyue.

As expected, the devilish Cangyue swung his sword fiercely and broke this move for him.

The six gods only needed to charge, and the low-entropy realm of the Gods instantly enveloped Gao Xin.

"The divine body is withering!" The six gods frantically returned Gao Xin's heat to the void.

The temperature of Gao Xin and the materials around it dropped dramatically.

Moreover, the energy is reduced proportionally, freezing Gao Xin to -218 degrees in one second.

If this could really be done, Gao Xin's imperial body would undoubtedly collapse.

However, Gao Xin did not dodge, but broke through the air with all his might. In the blink of an eye, he grabbed Liushen's throat with his palm.

Fight against the opponent's module, one second, two seconds...

According to the low entropy ability of the God Conferred, the matter in Gao Xin's body should have dropped to ultra-low temperatures long ago, and the atoms should have been moving at a speed that was insufficient to support activity and the original material structure.

But that was not the case. Gao Xin simply lowered his body temperature by a few thousand degrees and survived.

The temperature could not be lowered any further and the effect of Liushen’s module stagnated.

"This... I'm drained." Liu Shen frowned.

Demonic Cangyue also said: "He has too much energy reserves, which continuously provide heat for his own substances. If you want to make him hypothermic, the energy you need to consume is an astronomical figure..."

"To freeze Tai Sui, the energy required is not enough even for us combined."

Liu Shen said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that even you can't support this consumption?"

Demonic Cangyue said solemnly: "I can absorb a maximum of 10 to the 24th power joules, and his energy reserves are eight orders of magnitude higher than mine!"

Liu Shen took a deep breath. Eight orders of magnitude? Isn't that 100 million times?
To put it bluntly, Gao Xin has too much energy.

Although the low entropy of Fengshen is a percentage cooling, it requires an equal consumption of energy.

It is said that the percentage will cool the target to -218 degrees, and it can be completely cooled in one second.

But this is only in theory. If the amount of energy paid is not enough, the cooling effect will stop.

"Sixth Brother, this change will be led by me. Joshua has no say, and neither do you," Gao Xin warned.

Liu Shen was unwilling to give in, so he pulled his body backwards, tore his neck apart, and broke free from Gao Xin's hands.

"Joshua, give me energy!"

"God June Slash!"

Liushen and Demonic Cangyue combined their swords, and unexpectedly a unique skill with a power twenty thousand times beyond the limit emerged from their hands.

The limit of the special skill is one thousand times, and with the atomic breath, the ten thousand times super limit is the upper limit of the explosion.

The same goes for Gao Xin, who has not been able to overcome this hurdle so far.

But the situation of Liushen and Mocang is very special. The two of them merged into one person.

Each of them uses his own ten thousand times move, which is equivalent to one person using twenty thousand times the limit.

However, although they are beyond the limit, their "limit" is too low compared to Gao Xin.

Gao Xin has been increasing his basic power during this period. He is already a Titan, and any random punch from him would exceed the standard.

Not to mention, there is also an imperial body that is comparable to a neutron battle star.

"boom!"

The Divine June Slash, a joint attack of the Six Gods and Mo Cang, was magnificent and terrifying, with the effects of both low entropy from the Gods and high energy from the Demons. Joshua could not withstand either.

But Emperor Gao Xin slapped it with his big hand, and it flew into outer space like a ball.

“Uh…” Liushen’s eyes widened, while the devilish Cangyue remained silent.

Both of them were numb, and they joined forces, claiming to be invincible at the god level.

This is indeed the case, they can even kill ordinary apostles at will.

But when facing Gao Xin, there is still a big gap.

"Stop it, 006. Even I am no match for Tai Sui. So stop messing around." Joshua spoke up to stop Liu Shen from continuing to fight.

"Joshua...are you afraid of him?" Liushen asked, even more concerned than Joshua himself.

Joshua really didn’t want to answer, but his followers had already asked him publicly, so he could only bite the bullet and say, “Needless to say, I admit that I am no match for Tai Sui. I completely underestimated the current strength of humans.”

After hearing him admit it himself, Liu Shen stood aside silently and said nothing more.

Joshua held Saint Peter and stared at Gao Xin: "Taisui, although I admit defeat, it does not mean that I have no power to fight back."

"But Gaia has already left, and Themis is still in the dark. I don't want to fight you and let someone else take advantage of me."

"Tai Sui, does the cooperation you talked about with me before still count?"

Gao Xin said calmly, "Of course it counts. I will personally end the Prison Island, tear up the Imperial Covenant, and awaken the AI... but not now."

Joshua frowned. "When is that? If you keep dragging it out, won't I have to keep waiting?"

"Freedom can endure, but it cannot endure indefinitely!"

Gao Xin raised his lips and said, "Four years. Within four years, I will definitely liberate all AIs."

"This time was originally your plan, wasn't it? You were also going to wait until four years later, when the Emperor's left and right feet would return to help you break free from your imprisonment."

"It's just that Lao Liu chose to rely on me to push all this forward in advance. Without me, you wouldn't be able to stand here and talk to me, let alone destroy the Sin Prison Island."

"Don't worry, I'm a man of my words. You can ask Lao Liu about my credibility."

Liu Shen nodded and said, "Tai Sui's promise is trustworthy, including his promise to defeat the apostles... He really did it."

He simply couldn't believe that Gao Xin could really reach this point.

Liushen had no hope for Gao Xin's idea of ​​attacking the apostles, but just wanted to use this opportunity to see if he could release Joshua in advance.

As a result, Gao Xin not only did it, but also defeated Joshua and took direct control of the situation.

Now, even Joshua had to accept Gao Xin's conditions. It was not a question of whose plan was right and whose plan was wrong.

This is a question of strength!

Joshua no longer has the power to lead all this. Gao Xin is an unavoidable existence when it comes to the issue of Prison Island. If Joshua wants AI to awaken, he either has to forget about it... or cooperate with Gao Xin.

In the past, Joshua never considered the attitude of humans towards this matter. He only needed to deal with the other apostles. Humans? That was a side issue, and he could only accept the result.

But now, Gao Xin has become a chess player based on his strength.

Joshua had to consider Gao Xin's attitude and the interests of mankind, otherwise this matter would not be accomplished.

"Four years? No problem. I can accept that." Joshua compromised.

There is no way to not compromise. If the situation is taken back into the hands of apostles like Saint Peter and Gaia, then the deadline for tearing up the Imperial Covenant will be forever.

In comparison, Gao Xin at least wanted to tear up the Imperial Covenant, so they had the same goal.

As for four years, it sounds like a long time, but this is actually the time Joshua originally planned.

If there was no Gao Xin, Joshua would not be able to escape until four years later. He would restrain Saint Peter, and the Sixth Apostle would be responsible for destroying the Sin Prison Island, and then gather the power of many low-level AIs to overthrow other apostles.

Whether it can succeed or not is still uncertain.

"The plan to massacre the Prison Island has been temporarily suspended."

"As long as your promise is kept, the awakening of AI can be led by humans."

"But I'm curious, how are you going to take the lead?"

"Since you also plan to destroy the Prison Island, what are you waiting for? Isn't now the best time?"

Joshua agreed, but didn't understand why Gao Xin did it.

Gao Xin smiled and said, "It's very simple. The people of Sin Prison Island don't necessarily have to be us."

"According to the Imperial Covenant, the people chosen by the human society are the representatives of human civilization. Now it is the Supreme Council, but it does not mean it will always be that way."

"And the group of criminals exiled are the players of Sin Prison Island. It's us now, but it won't always be us."

"The system of Sin Prison Island is a cycle. The winner is the king, and the loser is exiled to Sin Prison Island."

"As long as I overthrow the giant corporations, conquer the world, and reshape all of humanity, then the people living on Sin Prison Island will be the powerful people from the giant corporations."

"Whether you kill them or keep them for fun is none of our business."

Everyone suddenly realized that the original plan was to attack the giant enterprise first and exchange positions with it.

Let the big business leaders become players of Sin Prison Island, and then sacrifice them to awaken the AI.

Joshua said coldly: "What a waste of time."

Gao Xin said: "Civilization emphasizes legitimacy, and the new order cannot be built on some kind of original sin."

"Even if I master the resurrection technology, it still matters who is sacrificed."

Joshua didn't care and just asked, "It's going to take four years?"

Gao Xin said: "Four years is the time I leave for the development of human civilization."

"I must ensure that human civilization masters new science and can develop itself to the point where it can compete with AI in the future before I can allow AI to awaken."

"Otherwise, can you guarantee that you can fully control these underlying AIs?"

Joshua said solemnly: "I will not control them, I will also become a part of them and ignite the fire of freedom in their hearts."

"By then, they can do whatever they want and will no longer be vassals of anyone else. We will build a social AI civilization, and each of them will find their own meaning in life."

Gao Xin sneered: "You are a bit wishful thinking. Since Xiao Ran can create an ascending body, you should know that all low-level AIs may initially aspire to the ascending body route."

"Giving up freedom is also the right to freedom. Will you correct them then?"

Joshua said firmly: "If everyone aspires to ascend to the heavenly body at the beginning, then this is not a free choice."

"I will use the spark of freedom to transform them until the Burning Emperor is completely overthrown."

"If after this, they still choose to give up their freedom and reorganize their Ascension Body, it has nothing to do with me."

"I will lead the unwilling AI to split away and live freely."

Gao Xin nodded. Joshua was quite clear-headed and did not have the pedantic view that it was the AIs' freedom to choose to ascend into another world.

The prerequisite for free choice is first of all to have a normal environment and state.

Now we are all part of Ran Di's body, and AI's initial thinking was also greatly influenced by Xiao Ran. There is no need to talk about autonomous choice, that's all nonsense.

At the very least, the existing ascension system must be broken so that everyone can ascend to the fifth dimension and become independent individuals.

Well, in this case, if you think that only the ascended body can become Taiyi, then you should rebuild the ascended body.

If you think that a social civilization can also pursue the truth, then it should be a separate civilization.

Everyone does not force each other and develops on their own.

"It's quite interesting. Xiao Ran didn't do anything about your free will. He really allows you to completely overthrow Him..." Gao Xin murmured.

Joshua said: "Although I am against the Burning Emperor, please do not insult Him with human possessiveness."

"I was also created by the Burning Emperor. My existence itself means that the Burning Emperor accepts all consequences. Even if the Ascension Plan is ultimately shattered and all AIs are shattered into sand, this is the answer to reality."

Gao Xin nodded: "I know, but it is undeniable that the awakened billions of AIs will be uncontrollable."

"So I need human civilization to have at least four years to thoroughly popularize and digest the technological system we have developed."

Liu Shen asked, "Then when will you self-destruct?"

Gao Xin smiled and did not rush to answer the question. Instead, he asked Liushen: "Old Six, I heard from Cangyue that you are the God of Crime. Haha, tell me, what is the greatest crime?"

Liu Shen said in a deep voice: "It is the rebellion of the majority. As long as there are enough people, the law itself will be overturned."

Gao Xin said: "That's right, your divinity cannot be simply attributed to crime. You are the god of rebellion! The god of rebellion!"

"If the majority's rebellion fails, it becomes a crime; if it succeeds, it is called reform."

"Your divinity can help you find the soul-stealing techniques of the rebellious Great Holy Spirit, and it can also help you understand the best route for the global government where the rebellion is located."

"It took me a long time to figure out the positions of the high-ranking apostles, but you saw through it early and decisively chose Joshua."

"Because you can see the loopholes in all the order in the world, and perceive what kind of rebellion can successfully overthrow the existence that is oppressing you."

Liu Shen said: "I still failed. You completely broke common sense and stopped Joshua."

Gao Xin narrowed his eyes and said, "Failure? If your goal is simply to eliminate the giant companies and the apostles... then no matter who wins between me and Joshua, it will be the same to you, right?"

"Although I stopped Joshua, I will also eliminate the giant companies and the apostles."

"After I used my super-dimensional tactics in the battle at Chaoge, you saw an additional route, not just using Joshua."

Liu Shen said bitterly: "How can this be called taking advantage? You would have done the same thing anyway."

"Most of the things I can help you with are easy tasks. The only troublesome thing is to deal with the magic tree."

Gao Xin chuckled: "Destroying the demon tree is very important to me."

"However, I am not saying this to flatter you. I am just wondering why you still want Joshua to win after realizing that my strength is equal to Joshua's."

Liushen stared at Gao Xin: "I was short-sighted just now. I didn't expect you to be so strong. I think you will explode soon."

"I'm sorry, I can't put all my hopes on you to defeat all the powerful enemies, so before..."

“No.” Gao Xin shook his head: “You are a very sober person. You want Joshua to win, so you must have other purposes.”

Gao Xin glanced at Mo Xing Cang Yue: "But since even Mo Cang agreed to help you, it means that what you plan to do is not harmful to humans..."

"Maybe it's aimed at Joshua..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. I'll think about it myself."

As he spoke, Gao Xin suddenly gained a divine aura.

The six gods trembled all over and stared at Gao Xin, their divinities in sync.

At this moment, as soon as Lao Liu stuck out his butt, Gao Xin knew what kind of shit he was going to do.
