Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

After Chen Yiran left, the atmosphere in the auditorium didn't improve much. Anyone who wasn't a fool could understand the meaning behind Chen Yiran's parting words.

There are bad people among the crowd!

Except for a few carefree individuals who started grabbing food from the self-service area, most people cautiously observed their colleagues. Originally, because they were all in the same major and striving for an ambitious goal, the relationships between colleagues within the project team were quite close; quite a few couples had even formed later in life.

But now, everyone has to consider whether their spouse is a traitor.

However, Chen Yiran's speech was quite effective. That evening, after the banquet, several people directly declined the paid consulting requests they had previously agreed to from the research and consulting firm.

So-called investigation and consulting firms are actually intelligence companies disguised as legitimate businesses; they are a form of commercial espionage.

They have a list, and once a company comes in with a request, they will make phone calls based on that list.

They'll discuss the boundaries of the conversation beforehand, but when it comes to actually talking about things, straight men with STEM backgrounds often don't realize which questions they've inadvertently crossed the line.

Such consultations are, of course, paid, and the price varies greatly depending on the situation. For some basic things, such as if the terminal company wants to know some data about Tomato Company's books or review standards, they can contact a consulting firm to have an editor from Tomato Company conduct a paid consultation. Two or three thousand yuan per hour is very tempting for working people.

For high-end biological laboratories, it's possible to be charged $10,000 per hour for consultations.

Moreover, the risk of receiving this money is very low. Even if it is discovered that you have received consultations, the specific details cannot be found out, and it is usually covered up.

However, Chen Yiran is now offering an outrageous reward of over a million US dollars, and if the final result is good, it could even be three million US dollars. In that case, we can only apologize to those unscrupulous consulting firms.

Eleven people in the project team had previously agreed to pay-for consulting services from outside sources. This is not an exaggeration, given that Chen Yiran's actions were quite significant. For a research field that is already a small circle, this was essentially a move to change the ecosystem, and all companies had to find out what he was planning to do.

Now, ten of them have rejected their previous requests, but one person remains stubborn and, based on the principle that even ten thousand is money, has chosen to take the risk.

Besides these people, there are five others whose situation is even more complicated.

If the previous dozen or so were merely misguided, these five are undoubtedly pure problem individuals. From the very beginning, they came to Lanai Island with malicious intent.

Two of them were external agents recruited by the CIA. The other two were corporate spies for a British biotechnology company, who had come prepared to steal intelligence.

The last one, Vivian, is someone who has been brainwashed by extreme environmentalism. She previously joined an organization called Primitive Earth, and this time the organization sent her here to destroy the evil experiments of scientists like Chen Yiran.

These five people had already sent out a lot of messages and maintained contact with the outside world. However, what's ridiculous is that they didn't know that Vicky had already hijacked their communication channels, and their information had never been sent out.

Two days later, Vicky, posing as several different voices, tested the five individuals. Surprisingly, the two CIA outsiders and the two corporate spies didn't even answer the phone, instead throwing it into the sea.

All four of them unanimously chose to sever ties with the past. They only earned a few dollars a month; now millions of dollars were beckoning them. Only a fool would cause trouble. The one named Vivian, however, was still harboring malicious intentions. She even called her accomplices outside, hoping the organization could find a way to quickly destroy all the laboratories on the island.

Vicky's accomplice readily agreed to Vivian's request, saying that the organization would rent a small sightseeing submarine to try to approach Lanai Island, and that they could simply bring bombs and blow up all the experimental equipment at night.

A few days later, on a dark and stormy night, Vivian deliberately dressed in all black, preparing to go out for a rendezvous. She intentionally chose to meet around 10 p.m.

Lanai Island has very little nightlife, so this time is already considered quite safe. Moreover, if she is unfortunately discovered on the street, Vivian can pretend to have insomnia and go for a run.

To complete the routine, she first actually ran around the coastline for a while, and then began to carefully observe the surrounding situation.

Fortunately, it's supposedly Pidan's birthday today, and all the security dogs on Lanai Island have been sent back to attend the party. The remaining robotic dogs, after recognizing her face as matching the island's list, didn't trigger any alarms.

At 11:30, several people in diving suits silently swam out from a shallow beach. The leader smiled and said to the others, "It seems Vivian was right, this island isn't dangerous at all, there's practically no defense."

The others behind them were also very excited: "We were too weak. We were scared by Chen Yiran's actions earlier. Now we see that he was all talk and no action. In reality, he had no defense at all."

Although the group said that, they still observed the area for a while and found a large rock to hide behind.

A short while later, when Vivian ran back here, she glanced at the time, went straight down to the beach, and soon found a hiding place for several people.

Both sides were very happy after meeting, and everyone hugged Vivian.

Vivian was excited: "How many bombs did you bring? This time we're going to give that unscrupulous scientist Chen Yiran a big surprise! He actually wants to make a human computer! They're destroying the world! Science really isn't a good thing. An agrarian society is much more suitable for the healthy development of humanity."

The group was a little confused. They looked at each other and the leader said in surprise, "Didn't you say that Chen Yiran was selling young girls here, and that he had brought a lot of them over to clone beauties and sell them in bulk, and that you wanted us to bring cameras to secretly film and expose them?"

Vivian was completely bewildered: "Wait a minute, I just talked to you on the phone yesterday, what were you talking about?"

"Yes, I just spoke to you on the phone yesterday. What were you talking about?"

Just as both sides were confused, a series of sounds came from all around, and more than fifty mechanical dogs equipped with machine guns surrounded them.

Then, more than twenty fully armed security personnel tied their hands and feet and brought them to Amit.

The group didn't resist. So what if they were caught trespassing? They were used to it. At worst, they'd just go to jail. For people like them, it was a symbol of fame. They could even post videos and gain some recognition while in jail.

Vivian began to feel uneasy. Among this group, she was the only one who was truly a highly educated intellectual. Although she still believed that humanity needed to return to an agrarian society, she was much smarter than her companions.

She asked tremblingly, "Is current AI technology capable of completely simulating human voices? So all this time, I haven't been able to send any messages? Have I been talking to AI the whole time? So, even with all my efforts, I still couldn't stop him?"

Amit sneered, "Stop? I don't know what you're thinking. The entire island's signal belongs to us. What makes you think you can send out the message? With brains like that, you think you can cause trouble? A bunch of idiots."

Nuno then came ashore in a small boat and approached Amit, saying, "Everything over there is taken care of; it was quite simple inside the submarine. Have you decided how to deal with these people?"

Amitra whispered to Nuno, "The boss said as long as the body isn't found, it's fine, but I don't want them to bury it on the island. I feel like it taints our island. How about we tie them to heavy objects and sink them into the sea?"

Nuno shook his head: "Unprofessional. Throwing it in like that is troublesome. If it's not deep enough, even if the carcass is eaten in shallow water a hundred or two meters deep, the skeleton plus the iron ball is still a big target and could easily get caught in the fishing net."

"Then what do you suggest? You're the professional."

"...I'm a veteran, not a professional cleaner! Sigh, leave it to me. I had a feeling I'd have to handle something like this, and I'm already prepared."

If you ask me, this kind of thing should be handled by me directly. You want me to cooperate with you? The boss is giving you too much credit; in the end, I'll be the one who does it anyway.

Amit warmly put his arm around Nuno's shoulder: "Oh, I'm the head housekeeper, this kind of job is definitely mine. Tell me, what's your idea?"

Nuno whispered, "A while ago, we bought a hospital ship, and I had someone install an alkaline hydrolysis chamber. We just throw the bodies in and close the door, just like a washing machine. There's only a slight sound from the water pump; it's quieter than a refrigerator."

I've tried using animal carcasses, and all that's left is a puddle of water and a bunch of limp bones.

"Let's try this this time. We can just dump the final dissolving liquid into the sea. The bones will be softened and broken up by the wash, and the fish will eat them. We won't even see any blood throughout the whole process, which aligns with the boss's pursuit of elegance."

Amit gave a thumbs up: "Great job, bro! I'll leave it to you. We're living the most comfortable life right now, and the boss's ambitions are only getting bigger."

My boss recently asked me to run for office in Hawaii, saying that if I run, I'm almost guaranteed to win. From now on, I might not just be in charge of Lanai; I could be in charge of all of Hawaii.

You're in the same boat now, in charge of Lanai. Who knows what will happen in the future, when we become stronger? Maybe even the military bases in Hawaii will have to listen to you.

"As long as we do our job well for the boss, none of this is impossible."

"Well, I can tell you're going into politics. You're starting to give me empty promises."

"Haha, let's practice a bit."

That evening, Vivian disappeared without a trace. The next morning, the island's security personnel beat up the person who had accepted the paid consultation and took him away, telling the other researchers that he was suspected of leaking secrets.

Suddenly, the researchers began to feel uneasy, as if they had been tricked.

But they had no choice but to proceed with the project at an increasingly aggressive pace. The laboratory had started operating 24 hours a day, and these middle-aged scholars had brought in over two hundred oxen and horses to do the groundwork.

Finally, on Children's Day 2014, a historic moment arrived.

Looking back on this day, future generations will find it truly remarkable, as three major events occurred simultaneously in different parts of the world, events that would change the entire world.

The first thing Chen Yiran did was to forcibly start the human consciousness transfer experiment. There was no other way; Gerald Edelman and Paul Paterson were already at their limit, and the doctor said they might only have two or three weeks left.

The latter two issues are both related to war. First, Iran launched a surprise attack on Israel, with a large number of drones conducting a nationwide raid on Israel.

Secondly, Russia escalated its war against Ukraine, launching a full-scale war.

Five years after his rebirth, Chen Yiran finally created a major butterfly effect by relying on drone technology.
