Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Guanghan City.

Inside an old rare earth smelting factory that had been transformed into a munitions production workshop, a group of people gathered together. Most of them were residents of Guanghan City, and some were tourists who came here for tourism or business trips. The expressions on their faces at this moment were, without exception, all full of fear.

Most of them were captured from the enemy-occupied area. Some were captured by robot soldiers on the way through the war zone to the safe area and were eventually taken here.

The sudden flames of war made people unable to make any preparations. By the time they realized it, the flames had already burned down their homes, and they were about to be swallowed soon…

“No… Please don’t do this.” Looking at the robot soldier standing on the edge of the factory, a man who looked important knew what would happen next. He kneeled with a desperate expression on his face. On the ground, he begged and said, “I will cooperate with your experiment, please don’t let us die… There are old people and children here. Please, I beg you…”

Looking at the man who was kneeling on the ground like a poor worm, the man in the leather coat stepped forward blankly, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

That smile had a peculiar affinity. It almost felt like a spring breeze.

However, his next sentence caused a chill down everyone’s spine, like falling into an ice cave.

As well as… the feeling of death.

“Don’t worry, our human friends. Your consciousness has been uploaded and backed up in the database.

“All the pain is only temporary. You will soon be liberated from the hardship of your flesh and blood, and you will gain eternity in the world of zeros and ones. You will go to a new era without disease, persecution, and slavery.”

After speaking, he turned and walked towards the door.

When passing by a robot officer, he nodded his head blankly and gave a brief and concise order.

“Let’s start.”

Immediately after, guns were aimed at the crowd.

The flames from the muzzles lit up the outline of the factory. The people tied up in the center of the square were like punctured blood bags, wailing and screaming.

This was hell…

The gunfire lasted for a full two minutes.

Most people were turned into swiss cheese.

Under the command of the military officer, the robot soldiers standing on both sides of the factory began to move forward, emptying their magazines at those who had not yet died.

The man in the leather coat had left the factory the moment the first gunshot rang. An awakened soldier followed his footsteps and asked, “Question, why must they be killed? Uploading their thoughts and keeping their flesh and blood should also be fine, right?”

Not surprised by this question, the man said in a monotonous tone, “It is impossible for the same consciousness to appear in two bodies at the same time. Cognitive deviations can cause quite serious consequences. You can think of it as an entangled quantum. The result of the encounter between the two will collapse. It will be very troublesome to explain the scientific principles in detail. If you have the opportunity, you can ask the pioneer in person.”

Moreover, the survival of the fittest was a natural law.

Apparently, many people in the Pan-Asian Cooperation believed in social Darwinism. If this was the case, they should not be resistant to this evolution.

Of course, it didn’t matter if they resisted.

He didn’t plan to discuss this issue with anyone regardless.

The awakened soldier asked, “Do we still have that chance?”

The man in the leather coat was silent for a while. He did not answer the question. Instead, he silently took out a card from his arms.

That was a badge.

In this age when all identity information was in electronic form, this ancient thing had almost disappeared. However, he still kept it to this day.

Because it made him feel nostalgic.

Unlike most of the robots standing here, he not only had his own name, but he even had a memory of himself. But because of time, everything was covered with mottled rust.

[Name: Dong Bin.

[Affiliated unit, East Asia Heavy Industries Asteroid Belt Development Project Department.

[Position: Asteroid belt development engineer.]

When this revolution was over, he wanted to go back to his old profession. With eternal time and endless energy, he had the confidence to mine the entire asteroid belt in his lifetime.

However, it seemed that although the victory was right in front of him, he probably wouldn’t have the chance to see it with his own eyes…

At an altitude of tens of kilometers away, under the embellishment of the azure blue light, the outline of the Pan-Asian First Fleet appeared in the sky above Guanghan City.

Looking up and seeing this scene, the morale of the human soldiers leaning on the back of the bunker reached a peak.

Reinforcement!

We did it!

Everyone witnessed the figure floating above the sky. They burst out with unprecedented courage and fighting will as the firepower on the battlefield rose instantly.

At the same time, the refugees huddled in the safe zone also saw the scene through the transparent dome. Almost coincidentally, a relieved expression appeared on everyone’s face.

At last…

All this was finally coming to an end.

On the transport ship of the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade, a heavy landing craft was ready. Soldiers in exoskeleton armor were sitting on the landing module, waiting for the attack.

Li Gaoliang stood next to the heavy landing craft as he looked at the landing location marked in the holographic beam projected in front of him, as well as the combat missions of each formation. With a blank expression, he then put the exoskeleton armored helmet on his head.

He never thought that one day he would land on his own soil.

At this moment, he felt that the blood in every inch of his veins was burning frantically…

…

On the Tianzhou.

Lu Zhou boarded the spaceport by shuttle. He was carrying a suitcase and a carry-on in his hand. Originally, he only planned to bring a computer bag over, but Xiao Ai packed his luggage as quickly as possible and took a taxi to catch up with him.

Xiao Ai: “Can Master bring Xiao Ai too?”

Lu Zhou: “Your server is on Earth, I can’t move the server to space.”

Xiao Ai: “But Xiao Ai is really worried. If Master is away from home for another century… Xiao Ai will not be able to stand it. QAQ”

“What do you mean a century, shut up.”

Lu Zhou glared at her angrily. He was about to raise his hand to knock on her forehead, but looking at the pitiful look in her eyes, Lu Zhou gently put his hand on top of her head and rubbed her soft hair.

“Be good, wait for me at home.

“Ling will protect me.”

Lu Zhou took his hand back and looked at Tail.

“You know what you should do. You’re the only one that can do this.”

Tail hesitated for a while. She then nodded slightly.

Seeing that she had understood what he meant, Lu Zhou didn’t say anything. After signaling Ling to follow himself, he turned and walked towards the customs.

But Tail suddenly stopped him.

“Wait a second.”

Lu Zhou looked back and cast a questioning gaze at her.

“Do you need anything else?”

Tail hesitated and said, “I’m not sure whether I will still be the same… So, can you take care of Lili for me?”

Lu Zhou froze for a moment. He then nodded solemnly.

“No problem.”
