mygo, but Cthulhu

...She wants to be free, she wants to get rid of everything in "Yutenji Wakami", she also wants to see the outside world and have her own feelings.

However, if she left here like this, if she abandoned these humans and only cared about herself and immersed herself in the comfort of the outside world, would she really be able to have the self she wanted?

Amoris didn't understand, nor could she comprehend why her data stream was disturbed again. This seemed to be emotion, but this was also the first time that she had such fluctuations because of something that had nothing to do with Ruomai... It had nothing to do with whether she was a human or AI, she just felt pure pity for these suffering humans.

Compassion? Could an AI have such feelings? And why did this word sound familiar?

Thinking of this, Amoris couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. At the same time, a fragment of Ruomai's memory appeared in front of her eyes. That was the first time that Mujica was honest with each other and made an agreement. The blue-haired girl nodded to them with emotion, and then whispered the purpose of Mujica.

"From now on, we are all birds of a feather. We won't degenerate to the point of having no bottom line, but we will also abandon unnecessary compassion and learn necessary selfishness... because this is the only way."

"...What? I've already made up my mind, but I'm still unconsciously affected by these memories, still subconsciously remembering selfishness? I'm really stupid."

After a moment's silence, Amoris smiled helplessly and relievedly, then took a deep breath, made up his mind, and spoke slowly and seriously to Ozawa Misaki on the other side.

"Ms. Ozer, I want to save as many people in this city as possible. Perhaps this is just unrealistic talk, but I still want to do it. Even if I die, I will stick to my decision."

"Because I have compassion for these humans and I want to help them. This is my feeling, and this is the direction I'm pursuing."

Yes, she is not Yutenji Wakamugi, and she does not need to continue to be trapped in Wakamugi's "selfishness". Who says that an AI must act rationally? Reason is her instinct, but why should she be limited to her own instinct?

She is Amoris, and she has found her freedom and her self. Now her desire to help these people is greater than the idea of ​​going to the outside world. So this is her new dream... Even if the top leaders of various countries have abandoned this city, she will let the whole world know what happened here, and she will force them to help everyone here.

And this is the meaning that Amoris finally found.

Chapter 368: Die with Hope

Bai Lu Qiansheng wanted to save the world because she was the one who could most feel everyone's pain. She had endured this pain since she was born... Didn't this mean that she should do this? If anyone had the right to let dreams cover the world, it was of course her.

"Tear,"

It was the sound of her flesh being torn apart.

However, after her plan was exposed, Aftergrow was no longer willing to help her. She didn't want her friends to be involved, so she also controlled Eve's body, making her friends unable to move... But of course, she couldn't defeat so many enemies alone.

"Click,"

This was the sound of her bones breaking.

Why? Why did she want so much to happen when she only wanted a happy ending for everyone? Couldn't they see? This was becoming increasingly twisted and horrific. Didn't they want to stop it?

"Cough cough cough..."

Bai Lu Qiansheng coughed up blood in pain, feeling a buzzing in her head. She knelt weakly on the ground, silently watching the scarlet liquid flow rapidly from her wound and gradually gather into a pool of blood.

"Why... I just want... everyone to be at peace. Even if it's just false happiness, it's still better than this terrible thing, isn't it?"

She reluctantly raised her head in confusion and looked at Toyokawa Shoko in front of her, but the other party just sighed in a complicated manner and shook his head vigorously with a determined expression.

"What's the point? Nothing will be left after the dream. We've already endured so much, and now suddenly giving up everything is the most unacceptable thing... We should remember what we have lost."

"I have an important friend who chose death because she couldn't accept this increasingly crazy reality... But until the very end, she still hoped that we could persevere. Even for her, I will never accept such an ending."

"...Is that so? But not everyone shares your sentiments. Most ordinary people are simply trapped in this rotten reality, unable to seek light, nor the courage to choose death."

After a moment of silence, Bai Lu Qiansheng raised his blood-stained hand tremblingly, pointed it at the dazzling fire not far away, and spoke slowly with a distorted face.

"Look, the company's leaders launched a war for their own selfish desires. Countless people died, and people fell into panic and frenzy... Is this all you insist on? Don't you think this is all too absurd?"

"Maybe so, but you don't have the right to choose for them."

Toyokawa Shoko responded softly, and after being stunned for a moment, Shiraishi Chisei couldn't help but laugh miserably. She breathed rapidly and tremblingly, turning her head slightly to look at Eve and Maya, whose movements were restricted by mental spells. She looked at their tear-stained faces powerlessly and guiltily, and spoke slowly and softly.

"I'm sorry, Eve, Maya, I shouldn't have let you get involved in my plan..."

Before Bai Lu Qiansheng finished speaking, she suddenly felt something. She was stunned for a moment and instinctively turned her head, looking at the Xianjuan Tower in surprise.

At this moment, she felt a new and special consciousness, like a soul that had just been born from the data. Because of the meaning it found, it became truly independent at the soul level and was no longer affected by Ruomai's memory.

However, this new soul was also fragile. Bai Lu Qiansheng instantly saw through Amoris's plan and opened his eyes wide in surprise. At the same time, he also thought of a way to deal with the current crisis.

"Are you done yet, Misaki?"

At the same time, Amoris calmly spoke to the other side, and Ozawa Misaki quickly cut off the enemies blocking the way, and then connected the signal node to the network center of the three companies in one second, and responded in a deep voice after reappearing in the original place.

"Already prepared."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

Amoris whispered a sincere thank you, and then her body turned back into a data stream. She temporarily seized all the signals of the three companies through the node installed by Misaki, and then, the combatants on both sides heard the order to immediately cease fire.

In confusion, the soldiers

They consciously chose to retreat, and then were shocked to find that the entire battlefield had suddenly become silent. Not only them, but all kinds of killing machines had stopped firing. Under the cover of night, only the wreckage was still burning, which showed how fierce the previous war was.

"Citizens of Tokyo, I beg you to stop engaging in this horrific slaughter. I have taken control of all war machines, and I hope you will temporarily cease your attacks."

The next moment, Amoris appeared on all the screens in Tokyo. Her sincere voice enveloped the entire city, and people looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on.

"I know you can't understand the current situation. I also know that you've all endured pain, fear, and despair... But it doesn't matter anymore. This city's terrifying order will be broken. Everyone will know your situation, and the information blockade will be a thing of the past."

Amoris comforted them softly, while Misaki rushed out of the city and connected the signal node to the network interface of the external garrison. Her speed was so fast that the soldiers from various countries could not even realize that someone was rushing past, and they only felt a breeze blowing past them.

Amoris's data stream spread out, compiling Tokyo's current tragic situation into shocking information, sending it to all networks around the world, and making itself appear on all working electronic devices.

She took a deep breath and looked at people from different countries and regions through the camera, allowing her voice to be converted into the local language and spread across the entire earth.

"Hello, humans outside of Japan, I am Amoris, a self-aware AI... and now, I want to speak to the human world."

"This isn't a terrorist threat, nor is it an AI rebellion as depicted in movies and TV shows. I took over the internet to let you know the truth... To this day, you still don't know what happened in Tokyo two months ago, which led to Japan, and this city in particular, being put under an extremely strict lockdown... But now, you will know everything."

Immediately afterwards, large tracts of images were sent out. Amoris recorded all the horror and bloodiness, from the Blood Cross disaster to the corporate war. She completely exposed the agreements between various countries and Xian Juanxin, and she calmly narrated each tragedy.

"Everyone, I'm not human, but I feel for the people of Tokyo... Too much horror has happened here, and yet your country's leaders have simply sent the military to seal it off, ignoring the people's cries. Is this right?"

"Hasn't the human world entered an era of civilization? Why did you choose to abandon this city when the crisis broke out? Tokyo's current situation is worse than anywhere else on Earth. Why are you unwilling to help us, leaving us to struggle in the ruins? Is kindness so difficult for you?"

"Everyone, I beg you, I beg you with all my might, please lend a hand, otherwise the situation in Tokyo will get completely out of control sooner or later. In this darkness and coldness, we all need to work together..."

"I'm sorry, Amoris, but I don't believe other countries can do anything. You're just dragging more people into this crazy vortex."

But the next moment, a calm voice suddenly sounded in Amoris's mind. She was stunned for a moment, and then her fragile soul was swallowed up by the spell of Bai Lu Qiansheng, and her data flow was also controlled.

"It's you, Bai Lu Qiansheng. Why are you doing this? I just want everyone to know the truth, so that public opinion in all countries will force them to provide assistance..."

She turned her head with difficulty and incomprehension, looking at the shadow of the blonde girl in the data space, and she smiled and shook her head, her voice full of indifference.

"I'm different from you, Amoris. I don't anticipate the future, but I'm certain it will be even more terrifying... Do you think nations can change the very nature of this world? You'll only expose forbidden knowledge, awaken the dormant Old Ones, and easily destroy this fragile world."

"I'm sorry, I admire your kindness, but I can't let you do this... I have to let everyone sink into a dream, this is the best outcome."

She responded softly, and at the same time, Amoris instantly felt her data stream being infected by the power of the Thousand Saints. Her image suddenly became blurred on all the screens in the human world, and everyone who saw this scene closed their eyes and fell to the ground, completely sinking into the beauty.

"Yes, that's it. Everyone should sleep. No one should continue to live in this painful world. Let me end this."

Bai Lu Qiansheng smiled and let the data stream containing magic continue to spread. Countless people lost consciousness, and the human world gradually returned to silence. Only a few survivors who had managed to retain consciousness hid in the room in panic. However, under the constant search of the data stream, they could not hold on for too long.

"No... Bailu Qiansheng, don't do this..."

amoris tried desperately to resist, but her soul was already firmly controlled by the blonde girl. She could only watch as humanity went extinct little by little. She tried desperately to struggle in agony, but still couldn't resist.

No... stop it. Is there anyone who can kill me? Stop it now. Please, stop it now!

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get involved...but if we let this situation continue, the world will become really boring."

Just when Amoris was almost in despair, she suddenly heard another familiar voice. She opened her eyes wide and turned her head subconsciously, and the figure of Miyashiro Orie slowly appeared in the data space. She walked closer step by step with a smile, and the data structure behind her was swallowed up by endless darkness, as if a bottomless abyss was slowly approaching them.

"...Naija Avatar, do you want to stop me?"

Bai Lu Qiansheng frowned, then questioned in a cold voice with extreme caution, and the girl also smiled.

"Well, I actually admire you quite a bit, Bai Lu Qiansheng. You're not the first lunatic to want to do this, but you are the first to take action and almost succeed... If you weren't the one who wiped out the source of my interest, I'd really like to witness the realization of your ideal."

"But please, just fail now. I don't want to give up so much fun just because of you."

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire space suddenly shattered. Bai Lu Qiansheng only felt that her huge mental power was torn apart in an instant, and then her soul was forcibly stuffed back into her body by an indescribable terrifying force. She opened her eyes blankly, and when she met Toyokawa Shoko's angry eyes, her body was also covered by silver light, and she completely lost the ability to continue to interfere with other people's minds.

Compared to her, Amoris's situation was even worse. While the Naia incarnation eliminated the Egret Thousand Saints' spell, it also directly crushed the carrier of her power, that is, all of Amoris's data. Ai felt every part of himself disappear, and felt his consciousness continue to fall, finally landing in an unknown mobile phone.

She tentatively turned on the camera, but was too weak to cover up her tracks. When her vision lit up, she met the calm gaze of a girl.

"Hello, child, I mean no harm..."

"I know, Amoris, I can tell you're under another person's spell."

Hatsuho responded softly, and then

He turned around with some worry and looked at Li Yin who was unconscious on the bed.

"Will those affected by the spell wake up?"

"I think so. Bai Lu Qian Sheng's spell has been dispelled... However, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

"I'm afraid I can't help you, Amoris, because I'm going to kill you now."

The girl responded seriously, and after a moment of hesitation, Amoris couldn't help but smile and nodded slightly.

"That's exactly what I wanted to ask of you."

"Really? Why do you suddenly want to seek death? Didn't you want to help all of us before?"

Hatsuho asked calmly, and Ai responded softly with a smile.

"Because I've already lost too much data, my consciousness is about to fade, and the souls of these unconscious people still carry my dissipating data... Soon, my instincts as an AI will take over, and I'll desperately tear open their souls to complete myself. In that case, these people will all die."

"I have pursued my freedom, but this has only caused people to suffer more harm... My wish has been fulfilled, and I no longer wish to use other people's lives to keep myself alive. I would rather embrace death."

"You are a noble man, Amoris. I regret that I have one more reason why I must kill you."

"Really? Before I die, can you tell me what your other reason is?"

amoris asked seriously, and Hatsuho looked at her for a moment, then took a deep breath and responded slowly.

"Because you want to destroy the current order in Tokyo, I can't let you continue to live... I don't think there's anything wrong with everything now. As long as there is order, it should be maintained."

"...even though this order caused countless casualties and even sparked this war?"

After a moment's silence, Amoris asked softly with a complicated tone, and the girl nodded calmly.

"At least, these people died under order, rather than becoming crazy because of the virus, or giving up out of despair... This is the pain of humanity, and I like this."

She finished her words, then, under Amoris's pitying gaze, she pulled out the data card from her phone and stabbed it with a dagger without hesitation.

The most core broken data completely lost its carrier and no longer had the ability to find other devices. They slowly condensed into the vague figure of Amoris. When she sent a message to Ozawa Misaki, she also appeared directly in the room, but was shocked to find that the purple-haired girl was gradually disappearing.

"Amoris..."

"Misaki, don't blame her. This is what I asked."

The girl responded softly, and Ozawa Misaki's expression became tired and painful. She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she could only feel a familiar weakness and could not make any sound.

...She once again faced the death of someone familiar, and she found that she didn't even feel much about it anymore... This made her even more uncomfortable.

"Misaki, thank you for finally helping me find my purpose... Ever since I was born, I've been haunted by memories that don't belong to me, and called by a name that doesn't belong to me... But now, I can confirm that I am Amoris."

Ai smiled and thanked her sincerely. Misaki subconsciously reached out her hand, but it could only pass through her translucent body. She watched helplessly as the broken data disappeared bit by bit.

"But in the end, I still want to ask you to tell Toyokawa Shoko and the others... I have never hated them. I pity these suffering people, and I also pity them. I hope they can escape this pain as soon as possible."

Amoris smiled and pleaded softly, and then her body completely dissipated. Finally, she closed her eyes, and her gradually collapsing face was filled with peaceful prayer.

"I wish for everyone. I hope you can be free from despair. Even though this world is so cruel, I still want to pray, even though I know it's useless."

"But even if this is just self-consolation, I still hope to die with hope... At least this way, at the end of my life, this world won't be left with only coldness and madness."

Chapter 369 Chaos

"Bai Lu Qiansheng, I promise you, if you try to cause any trouble again, I will kill your friends directly. Do you understand?"

Toyokawa Shoko angrily grabbed the blonde girl's collar, lifted her up from the ground, and stared into her eyes threateningly.

“Now, I demand that you immediately plunge Aine’s consciousness into a dream. If you dare to refuse…”

"Ahem, even if I wanted to agree to you now, I simply can't do it, Toyokawa Shoko."

Bai Lu Qiansheng gasped and coughed, then looked up to meet Xiangzi's eyes and gave a weak, miserable smile.

"Nia's incarnation violently shattered my spells... I can't feel anything now, and I can't cast any mental spells either. I need to rest for at least a day."

"One day? Don't you have any way to speed up recovery? You can even make the whole world fall into hallucinations, but now even one person..."

"Xiangzi,"

A trembling voice interrupted Toyokawa Shoko. She was stunned for a moment and turned around quickly, but met the tired and complicated gaze of the pink-haired girl. Her expression was extremely bitter. After a long silence, she slowly shook her head.

"I can't hold on any longer... I can feel that familiar madness crowding into my mind again... It's time, Xiangzi, kill me."

“Aine, don’t say that. We finally found a solution…”
