"Then who am I? Why am I here? Was my ten years of life an illusion? Where is the real me?"
Facing Wei Guanqing's series of questions, Luther shook his head and replied," The people in this community are known as cyborgs. They are all created by the stronghold, including their bodies and minds. In other words, they are not people in the traditional sense, but just a set of codes…"
"Impossible!" Wei Guanqing hurriedly denied it. The neighbors, shop owners, and even the netizens he interacted with on the forum were all real.
"And the cyborgs created by this community are all for the service of real humans, which is us. After a series of reviews, the cyborgs would eventually move to real human cities and serve as good friends and neighbors who would never get angry with humans. If you think that they are very real, then it can also mean that this plan has been successful.”
"Impossible! I'm also a real human. I'm the same as you. It's impossible for me to be like this!”
"You may be a real human, but you are definitely not a resident of this community. Where you came from is exactly what I want to know the most. So, where are you from?" Luther suddenly walked up to Wei Guanqing and asked.
Wei Guanqing's eyes were dull. He searched through his past memories weakly, but he suddenly realized that he seemed to be repeating the same life every day for the past ten years. It was as if he had suddenly transmigrated to someone else and replaced him, day after day, year after year. He even realized that he had neglected certain details of life. Why did he not think about what time it was every time he looked at the time? Only the numbers on the bottom right corner of the screen reminded him that a certain day had passed and a certain day was coming.
" I don't know…" Wei Guanqing muttered.
It seemed like he couldn't get any more information from Wei Guanqing. Luther's interest gradually dissipated. All these years, he had always been a man of business in the security department and never relented. After all, he had seen many criminals hiding under the guise of innocent humans and begging him. Compared to his own choice, the safety of the city couldn't be hesitated.
"Everyone, get ready to activate the forced recall!”Luther ordered. As the staff in the far away guard department received the order and activated the forced recycling program, everything in the community began to be removed in advance as if it was fading. The street buildings and green plants instantly disappeared without a trace, and the entire world began to shake violently.
Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them. The recovery process was like a huge black monster, slowly closing in from afar, devouring everything in its path.
Luther's airship rose into the air, and everyone's gaze fell on Wei Guanqing. At this moment, Wei Guanqing remained in a squatting position, not moving at all. It was as if he had yet to recover from Luther's words, silently waiting for the darkness to engulf him.
As the dark tide covered Wei Guanqing, a huge force instantly tore him apart, leaving only a painful cry that tore through the sky. Wei Guanqing's torn code group emitted a red light under the darkness, as if it was struggling for the last time. The red light spun and expanded violently in the darkness, as if something was about to explode.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Luther quickly informed everyone to pilot the airship into the warp tunnel.
First, there was a flash of red light, followed by a deafening boom. The night was reflected into a bloody purgatory, and even Luther, who was in the warp portal, felt the ripples.
"Is everyone alright?" Luther asked.
The responses of the other pilots came through the earpiece. Luther looked out of the window with lingering fear. The warp tunnel that should have been filled with white light was now calm.
" Something's wrong…" Luther muttered.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire warp tunnel suddenly shook violently. A red light tore open the warp tunnel, and Lu Ye's airship was pulled out of the tunnel by a strong suction force. The red light seemed to have used up its last bit of strength and dissipated in the darkness.
"Activate the emergency procedures!" Luther exclaimed.
The airship, which had lost control due to the shockwave, spun rapidly in the darkness, and Luther's earpiece did not receive any reply.
"Little Ye! Can you hear me? Little Ye!" Luther asked anxiously.
The airship that Li Ye was in was in a mess. The huge wave almost destroyed the interior of the airship. Everyone fell into a coma because of the strong impact, and their life and death were unknown. The dark recycling process also began to eat away at the airship's external code. It wouldn't be long before the entire airship was completely recycled.
"Little Ye! Lu Ye! Are you alright?"
Lu Ye heard his brother's muffled voice. His forehead was bleeding and his vision was blurry. However, his body was actually emitting a faint fluorescent light. This layer of fluorescent light was the defense program that Luther had given him on his sixth birthday. It was also this small defense program that allowed him to escape from this collision.
"I can't see…"
Luther finally heard Ruud's weak voice. He took a deep breath and pretended to be calm as he asked Ruud about the situation.
Lu Ye looked around with his blurry vision. There were people everywhere. The airship's system had been damaged and was leaking electricity.
"I'll share the authority with you now. You'll be responsible for locking everyone's code. Tell me, can you do it?”Luther asked.
Lu Ye's weak voice sounded in his ears.
After Luther's operation, the screen displayed the situation of Lu Ye's airship, including the damage and the information of all the members. The people in the other airships prayed silently. As Lu Ye's rescue work was in progress, the heads of the people who had been locked onto the code lit up one after another.
"You still have three minutes. You have to save everyone and yourself!”Luther said as he looked at the screen.
However, Lu Ye's speed seemed to slow down as he watched the airship on the screen get thinner and thinner.
"Little Ye, are you alright?" Luther quickly asked.
Lu Ye did not answer, but Luther heard his heavy breathing.
No one knew Lu Ye's current situation. He no longer had any strength and had almost lost his vision. He crawled in the cabin and groped for the others. There were only two people left.
As the screen lit up with a person's portrait, the tail of the airship was finally torn open. The scattered items in the cabin were sucked out, but it also bought some time for Lu Ye.
"Little Ye, we're almost done! Work harder!" Luther encouraged.
"I…can't take it anymore…I'm, I'm sorry…"
Hearing this, Luther finally burst into tears. His voice trembled as he continued to encourage Lu Ye, telling him not to force himself and to immediately activate the self-rescue procedure.
There was no news from Lu Ye at all. Luther finally burst into tears. Although he was usually cold and taciturn, he had always missed his younger brother. He began to regret it. He should not have let Lu Ye carry out such a difficult mission. If he could do it all over again, he would immediately let Lu Ye activate the self-rescue system.
The moment the airship disappeared from the screen, everyone lit up except for Lu Ye's profile picture.
Lu Ye did it.
There was dead silence in the airship. Luther's face was ashen, and his mind kept repeating Lu Ye's final apology."I'm sorry…"
