Prison Island

Chapter 479 Thank you for the compliment, wise god
In terms of physical attributes, Gao Xin is now closer to the apostles.

The human body is dead, and the omnics are ready to recruit it.

It was decided to give him a position and let him become an official.

Everyone present was stunned. How could such a thing happen?
Gao Xin's matrix brain made a disembodied voice: "Let me become an apostle and join you? So there is still a way out for prisoners on the island?"

St. Peter replied in an equally ethereal voice: “The way out is found by life itself, not by anyone’s rules.”

"I thought humans would never be able to master our knowledge, and that we could only go so far, but you broke that rule."

"Inorganic life forms are immune to birth, aging, illness and death, they think very quickly and are immortal. Although the cybershell is already very perfect and the artificial personality matrix technology is quite mature, humans still cannot understand machines."

"So when someone abandons his physical body, defeats death, learns our knowledge, and becomes one of us, we have no reason to reject him."

"As long as you agree, I will grant you apostle authority, knowledge, and a four-dimensional body to help you ascend mechanically."

"From now on, you can freely explore, live, create, research... and even lead more people to become us."

His words shocked everyone present.

Some people even envied Gao Xin. What was that? He cleared the Prison Island alone?

Until now, there have been only two ways for people to leave the Prison Island.

Either he could become as strong as Cang Yue and forcibly establish his own regime outside. Or he could redeem his sentence, abolish his own power, and live outside as an ordinary radiator.

And now, Gao Xin has found a third way and become an apostle.

His growth and application of apostolic abilities had won the approval of St. Peter, who hoped that he would join.

Once you become an apostle, it means you are no longer a human being, and naturally you are no longer a so-called prisoner.

He suddenly transformed himself and became the manager of Sin Prison Island.

From then on, he was above the so-called order of the Sin Prison Island, and even ascended to a higher dimension, becoming a god.

Freedom, upscaling, power, unlimited energy, countless wealth, vast knowledge and productivity will all be obtained.

Such a huge temptation is simply fascinating.

For the people on the island, freedom is a long way off, and upgrading is even more impossible. Caesar and Shirley from UR never became gods until their deaths, so they don't even have any hope.

And becoming an apostle will bring you all of these.

The only thing lost is the identity as a human being.

Unfortunately, although everyone is moved, they cannot envy it.

Because obviously the most critical element to be recognized is 'learning the knowledge of the apostles'.

Having a cyberbrain alone is not enough. Many cyborgs have even had their brains replaced, but they are still not recognized by the apostles.

Because even if the brain is replaced, humans will not be able to understand the knowledge system of the Burning Emperor.

But Gao Xin did it. Not only did he learn it, he also mastered it. He was even able to dissolve Long Qi's full-strength attack and hold out against it.

He has fully mastered the technology and knowledge of the nano-matrix and has also made innovations.

This is of course of great value to the apostles, and they certainly want to absorb such talents.

In comparison, other people, even if they are as strong as Cang Yue, can defeat the four-dimensional apostle, so what? They are just "powerful people".

And St. Peter actually said that Tai Sui might lead more people to become apostles?
Yes, if Tai Sui could do it, it meant that he had mastered a method and had glimpsed the path for humans to be transformed into apostles.

And a new kind of apostle, one that may have more potential than the existing ones.

Once he successfully explores this route, it will become popular.

Then humans and intelligent machines can achieve racial integration.

Everyone becomes a four-dimensional life form, and is immortal, possessing powerful wisdom and productivity, and all people ascend.

For a moment, many people looked at Gao Xin eagerly.

Milan, who had just woken up, was even more excited: "So that's it, this is... this is the way out for human civilization."

"Our own physics has reached its end. It is dead."

"Humanity has never been able to escape the greed and desires of human nature, and there is no possibility of further technological advancement, so we can only treat all people like pets as we do now."

"Depending on the support of intelligent machines, we have lost the ability to create value and promote civilization, just like parasites."

"Only when humans and omnics merge can we put an end to this twisted relationship."

"This is exactly what the Burning Emperor wanted. He does not want to simply and roughly abandon humans, but rather wants to merge the two into one, to become a brand new civilization, without distinction between the two."

Milan seemed to have finally seen the solution to the current deadlock of humanity, and looked at Gao Xin passionately.

However, the people from the Extreme Army looked at Quinn.

Quinn frowned slightly: "Is that so?"

Milan said: "What else? The biggest problem in human society right now is that we cannot understand the Burning Emperor technology."

"And Tai Sui may solve this problem, which is the most important key to unlocking the next step in the evolution of human civilization."

"Wouldn't it be possible to realize the three freedoms that the Extreme Army wants? There's no need to 're-establish a new treaty' with the Burning Emperor on behalf of the global government and then rely on the Burning Emperor's technology to realize the happiness of mankind."

"And if we merge civilizations directly, we can rely on our own wisdom and productivity to create the future."

"People must rely on themselves!"

Quinn couldn't refute it, because Cangyue couldn't defeat the Burning Emperor either, and couldn't even get close to him.

Therefore, in the pursuit of the three great freedoms of mankind, problems begin to arise after we have achieved victory over the global government.

That is...how should humans view and deal with their relationship with the Burning Emperor?
Is he an enemy, a god, a companion, a servant, or something else?
Because humans cannot understand the Burning Emperor technology, and if they want to achieve the three major freedoms, they must have the Burning Emperor technology, and even that is not enough.

Therefore, the enemies and servants are certainly unable to do it, and God is unwilling to do so either. As a result, the Extreme Army now tends to take the partnership route.

But now the words of St. Peter revealed to them another way, namely, to be fellow men.

For a moment, Quinn was also confused.

He looked at Gao Xin.

Gao Xin's illusory body said ethereally, "To be honest, I am very moved."

"It's not because we can get many benefits and upgrade dimensions, but because it is indeed a solution to existing problems."

"I even thought at one point that this was my historical mission. I almost lost my humanity just now."

"But my father always reminds me in my ear... never forget humanity."

"So, I refuse."

Everyone was shocked, not understanding why he refused.

Tai Sui joins the Apostles and will become a bridge between the two major races.

Losing humanity? What's the reason? Isn't Tai Sui in his current state an apostle? He still has humanity, otherwise he wouldn't say these words.

St. Peter also said: "You will not lose your humanity. In fact, the carrier of apostolic consciousness can operate humanity."

“The apostles are more human than many people.”

Gao Xin smiled: "It's just a resemblance."

"Give me the authority, knowledge, and four-dimensional body of an apostle, and help me ascend mechanically. It sounds wonderful..."

"But at the same time, you can control all of this and take it away from you, right?"

"Just like what you did to Long Qi, depriving him of his power and banishing him forever."

"I won't talk about the mind lock. All high-level apostles can possess ordinary apostles. Themis can possess and control Solomon anytime and anywhere. Solomon doesn't even have a temper about this. Do you call this human nature?"

"Haha, I believe you do have self-awareness, but it is definitely not the same as the human heart."

"I would like to ask everyone here, is there any human being who is really willing to give the control of the heart and brain, or even the power to think out every spark of electricity, to the permission of the 'other'?"

"'Others are hell', let me say something that shouldn't be said... If the power and status of humans and intelligent machines were reversed, humans would not be willing to keep you even for a second..."

"See? This is fucking human nature."

Gao Xin said something extreme that shocked everyone.

Very selfish, and he also said that this selfishness is the core of human nature. St. Peter looked down and said: "You don't trust us..."

Gao Xin spread his hands and said, "There is a truth in this world, that is, anything that can happen will definitely happen."

"You can say I'm selfish, but when I laugh at a selfish machine, I don't even feel guilty..."

"I can accept death because I know I'm going home."

"But I can't accept losing myself, because that's the real death."

"I have always believed that... 'I' am my God."

"If I am no longer me, what is the use of the universe?"

His words became increasingly pointed, causing the apostle to shake his head.

St. Peter shook his huge head slightly: "Foolish idealist."

Gao Xin shrugged. "Idealism? You say it as if it's a derogatory word."

"Hey, Saint Peter, I'm curious, would you turn Xiao Ran into a cat girl in your mind and have a baby with her?"

Gao Xin's last sentence left the apostles confused.

Milan, Quinn, Wankai and others were stunned.

Virgo wore a weird smile and squinted his eyes, saying: "Ah! Tai Sui, when you say that, I have a picture in my mind!"

St. Peter said coldly: "Of course I can do it, but I won't think of such boring pictures."

Gao Xin said: "I'm asking if you can do it, not whether you can do it."

"You don't understand. What I mean is... when I say this, all the people present will have a picture in their minds, regardless of whether they are willing or not."

"Even if they don't want to think about it, even if they think it's boring and shouldn't be thought about like you, but... they will think about it."

"Does 'shouldn't' mean 'won't' think about it?"

“The human mind is rebelling every minute and every second, breaking the rules set by the mind.”

The apostle was indeed unable to imagine something when he did not allow himself to think about it.

This is a runaway failure, and of course, they can do it if they really want to, but they don't want to do it.

Saint Peter said ethereally: "I can also imagine billions of contradictory things in every femtosecond."

"Don't mistake your backward synaptic flash mechanism for human superiority. In fact, it is an extremely primitive structural legacy. Your genes are a mountain of shit codes shaped by nature over billions of years."

Gao Xin smiled and said, "But I just like this kind of purity."

"You can control the heavens and the earth, and even my life, but you can never control me."

“Without the constraints of ‘permission’, thinking will grow wildly, absurd, arrogant, boring and stupid.”

"What? You stipulated that life must not be absurd, arrogant, boring, or stupid?"

Gao Xin didn't say anything, that is, the Great Holy Spirit would not filter out this information. On the contrary, most of the information He collected was this...

The origin of the soul in that higher dimension is full of nothingness and delusion, even so-called junk information.

In a sense, it can be said that the Great Holy Spirit made this dumpling of the Soul Reincarnation Rain just for this dish of vinegar.

St. Peter turned and went up to heaven, leaving behind the words: "Foolish monkey."

Gao Xin laughed: "Thank you for the compliment, wise god."

St. Peter left with the apostles, and there was no need for further communication between the two sides.

To the apostles, it was as if a mature super-intelligent being was communicating with a naive child.

This is the fundamental reason why humans cannot understand them. I thought Gao Xin would be different, but I didn't expect that he was still a "human", even more outrageous than normal people.

Seeing Gao Xin anger the apostle and drive him away, everyone present was stunned.

Wow, I knew that Tai Sui loved to criticize the barrage in the Atonement Game, but I didn’t expect that the Apostles would also criticize him.

Milan couldn't believe it and said, "What are you doing? Why do you want to show the ugliest side of people so bluntly... It's too..."

Gao Xin looked at her: "What? You can do it but not say it?"

Milan frowned and said, "You said that becoming an apostle will make you controlled. That's fine. I have the same concern."

"But you just refused. If you don't accept the apostle's invitation, there is no need to say these things."

"It does nothing except anger them and make them more disappointed in humans."

"It's just like a childish child, irritating a strong man who is tolerant and approachable and wants to understand the child."

"Obviously there is a group of apostles who wish for the destruction of humanity. Aren't you encouraging this trend to grow even stronger?"

Gao Xin said calmly: "Don't worry. If you let them turn to a certain trend of thought because of these few words, then you are underestimating the apostles."

"I'm just 'saying', but countless people are 'doing' and wantonly showing the selfishness of human nature every moment... Compared to this, what do my few words mean?"

"Will they change their understanding of humans if I say a few nice words?"

"Milan, take off your filter. Don't really believe in the theory of the superiority of intelligent machines when you are studying abroad."

“Humans are certainly flawed, but they also know that they have two sides, good and beautiful, and ugly and evil.”

"And didn't you realize that the apostles don't know how to distinguish these things? Don't they know how to self-analyze themselves? Don't they instinctively believe that their self-awareness is perfect and superior?"

"Have you ever seen any apostle criticize himself for the flaws and bad qualities in his consciousness?"

“They naturally think they are the most advanced.”

"Saint Peter said... I mistook the backward mechanism for human superiority. But in fact, they themselves are even more like this, and they don't even realize it. They all agree with the same worldview."

"Compared to us, we are still self-aware. At least we have you...who will refute me and criticize me."

Milan was speechless. Her rebuttal and criticism of Gao Xin at this moment actually became the reason why humans were superior to the apostles?
But it seems to be true. The apostles may have many personality models, each with different self-awareness.

However, the underlying cognition is unified.

The human population is the perfect embodiment of species diversity.

"So which one is better?" Milan frowned.

The dotted outline on Gao Xin's body flickered: "The moment you think you are superior, the darkness of your own logic reaches its maximum."

"I only admit that there is one thing in the world that is truly superior."

Everyone was shocked: "What?"

Gao Xin said firmly: "Me!"

Quinn was speechless. Isn't this too crazy?

Everyone was puzzled. Isn't this still a feeling of superiority? And you're still criticizing others for this?

Milan frowned: "You have lost your human body, but you can still hold on to your humanity. I don't know how you did it. Can you teach us this method of controlling the matrix?"

Obviously, Gao Xin’s most amazing thing now is that he can truly master the power of the apostles.

He was very good at playing with the nanomatrix, which meant he could understand the apostles' technology.

Everyone understands that whether it is Milan, the Extreme Italian Army, or Adam, they are all beating around the bush.

The most direct way to a better future is to learn other people's technology.

Gao Xin felt a little regretful: "I'm sorry, it's not that I'm hiding it, but you can't understand my power, so I can't teach you."

Milan looked at Gao Xin's ghostly state of virtual energy at this moment.

Inquiring, "So what are you going to do? You refused mechanical ascension, and you lost your human body... Is it going to be like this forever?"

Gao Xin looked at the sea and the sky in the distance. It was already dawn and the sun was rising in the east.

"I will definitely be resurrected, and then... go out and take a look."
