The secret of "Mother Goddess"
"Is the blue whale tattoo on Hao Feiyang your masterpiece? And..." Liu Xia looked around. The voice was like a surround sound, and he couldn't pinpoint the specific location at all. "Who the hell are you?"
The question was very impolite, and Liu Xia didn't intend to waste time talking in circles with the "Mother Goddess".
"As far as I know, this tattoo is the logo of a company called 'Whale Fall' from three hundred years ago. Don't tell me you're some kind of monster that's lived for three hundred years, or a machine like the ones that brought us here?"
"I haven't seen you for three hundred years, and it really makes me sad to be called that by Xiao Xia the moment we meet."
A blue holographic image appeared in front of Liu Xia again. It was a familiar woman who was looking at her and smiling gently.
"Bai...Bai Fei!" Liu Xia's eyes widened uncontrollably, her pupils shrinking in shock. "You...how could it be you? You're still alive?!"
The holographic image couldn't simulate her complete demeanor, but one could still see Bai Fei smiling gently as always: "I guess she can't be considered completely alive."
But he said some words that sounded creepy.
"You've lived for three hundred years? That's impossible. What else can you say you can't be considered fully alive?" Liu Xia spoke incoherently, and unconsciously took two steps forward to shake the hand of his old friend, but naturally he grabbed nothing.
In response to Liu Xia, the floor beneath his feet suddenly became transparent, revealing the space below. It was a sea of countless black computer cases flashing blue light, with tens of thousands of wires converging at the core.
There was a culture chamber made of pure white metal and transparent glass. Compared to the blue ocean of stacked computer cases, the light surrounding the culture chamber was white and warm.
There is a complete brain floating in the cabin, quiet and strange.
Bai Fei chuckled and murmured, "If being alive with only a brain left is considered living, then I am still alive."
The voice was still as gentle and peaceful as in his memory, and it seemed as if time had gone back and appeared in Liu Xia's ears.
Liu Xia squatted down to see more clearly, her eyes fixed on the incubator. This completely overturned her imagination: "How is this possible?"
Hearing this, Bai Fei's voice was accompanied by a confused and helpless sigh.
"Those scientists had the same reaction as you did. They also thought it was impossible. The fact that only one brain remained alive and still maintained high levels of activity, even showing a 100% match with the brain-computer interface source code, is truly incredible."
Amidst his chaotic thoughts, Liu Xia caught sight of a familiar term: "Brain source code?"
"Perhaps my survival is inextricably linked to you... As for why the brain source code is so compatible with my brain nerves, perhaps no one can explain this anymore."
Hearing this, Liu Xia's heart suddenly tightened, recalling that she was the one who fell from the building while holding Bai Fei. Her blood played a crucial role in He Tianlin's survival. Could it be that her own blood in the real world also had an effect on Bai Fei?
This possibility is very high, but the bizarre and strange thing that one can live for three hundred years just by relying on the fusion of the brain and the brain area source code is still somewhat unbelievable and incomprehensible.
As Bai Fei said, I'm afraid no one can answer this question.
Another point that is hard to understand is how Bai Fei knew that she was the Liu Xia in the real world? She didn't say this when they first met.
"How did you know I was Liu Xia? If I remember correctly, this was the first time we met. How did you recognize me?"
Bai Fei's holographic image suddenly appeared beside Liu Xia, and with a chuckle, a strange memory suddenly appeared in Liu Xia's mind.
A little girl who grew up in an incubator appeared before her eyes. Her face was clearly her own when she was five years old. Then she was thrown into the garbage area by several humanoid robots.
"You are Xiao Xia's most perfect replica. Of the tens of thousands of copies, only you survived and inherited her memories perfectly. Although I don't know why your consciousness disappeared briefly, perhaps it's like Venus, with some harmless omissions."
The voice suddenly became gentle, as if coaxing a child who had broken a toy.
“How can this not be a kind of imperfect beauty?”
Liu Xia leaned forward, his body weakened by shock and disbelief, his knees slamming onto the ground. He clenched his hands and punched them hard on the transparent floor, but the immense force only left a slight sound, as if the force had been absorbed by the ground material.
"Liar...you're talking nonsense!"
A splitting headache suddenly crept into my mind. I don't know if it was because I absorbed too many words that I couldn't digest at once, but those lost memories came back all at once, as if they were reviving.
It turned out that she was actually Liu Xia from the wasteland world, not Liu Xia who traveled from the real world. This meant that everything she experienced in her childhood actually happened to her. This information was somewhat unexpected for her.
"Why are you so angry? You are Liu Xia, even stronger than the original Liu Xia."
Bai Fei's voice was gentle and tinged with compassion, but the words she uttered seemed devoid of any human aura: "You have no moral shackles, nor are you burdened by emotions... You are my sharpest knife."
"Those scum who caused the destruction of the world shouldn't exist in this world. Don't those scum deserve to die? Aren't you happy when you recycle that garbage?"
Countless silver threads stretched out from the ground, just like when they swallowed Song Xuan, gently from bottom to top, but without rushing to swallow him, instead they wrapped around Liu Xia's neck and gently soothed him.
Just like when Bai Fei comforted her in the real world, with Bai Fei's unique voice, gentle and considerate.
"How did the nuclear explosion happen?"
Liu Xia's question was like a key that instantly pried open Bai Fei's memory, which was also the memory of the "Mother Goddess" that had been sealed for three hundred years.
The light in the hall suddenly dimmed, and the holographic projection receded like the tide, replaced by a blurry image.
In the underwater research base in the real world, the time displayed on the electronic calendar on the white wall was about a week after she and Bai Fei fell from the building.
Researchers in chemical protective suits were running back and forth. A human brain was floating in the central incubator, and outside the incubator were connected countless neural network-like wires.
Liu Xia's breathing stagnated when he saw the time. He took a deep breath and asked, "Not long after they took your body away, they directly removed your brain? Where's your father? Doesn't he care?"
Bai Fei chuckled. "If a man who sold his daughter to save his own life is worthy of being called dad, do you really think he has the ability to mobilize so many mercenaries to play along with you? If it weren't for saving his life, I wouldn't be like this."
Her voice was calm, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
But the tremor caused by the gentle silver fluid still exposed Bai Fei's emotions, but this tremor only lasted for a moment and quickly disappeared.
"They connected the brain-computer source code to my brain, and it was very successful. From then on, they started calling me the 'Mother Goddess'."
Liu Xia took a deep breath and calmed her chaotic emotions. She suddenly heard too much information that was beyond her cognition, and the fragmented memories that flooded into her mind made her mind a little confused.
Now that I have come to my senses, I have discovered some points that I had not noticed just now because of my emotional fluctuations.
Bai Fei seemed unaware of the reason why his consciousness briefly left his body, or where it went after leaving.
So do the experiences in the real world really exist, or are they just memories that exist in Liu Xia's body?
Liu Xia quickly accepted the possibility that he was a clone. Even his consciousness could travel between two worlds, so what was impossible?
But this does not mean that she should completely trust Bai Fei, who only has a brain left. She has learned from her mistakes and does not want to experience Bai Fei pretending to be kidnapped in the real world again.
What's more, it involves the brain-computer interface brain source code. Who knows if this thing is still the Bai Fei she knows. Maybe it is an AI in itself. Whether it is hostile or friendly to humans, these are only known to her.
This time, Liu Xia did not intend to continue following the rhythm of Bai Fei, the so-called "Mother Goddess".
We still have to find a way to figure out how the nuclear explosion happened. If this damn brainiac is planning something bad, Liu Xia doesn't mind sending it to hell.
Liu Xia looked up at Bai Fei's holographic projection again, and feeling that the atmosphere was about right, he continued to ask, "So what does this have to do with the nuclear explosion?"
When Liu Xia, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, Bai Fei chuckled and nodded, still staring into Liu Xia's eyes with those electron-formed eyes: "You humans sometimes really like to cover up your mistakes and find ways to shift the blame to others."
Seeing that Bai Fei was finally willing to continue talking about her topic, and had even revealed some words that she was not even aware of, Liu Xia prepared to continue guiding her step by step, just like old friends reminiscing about the past.
"Covering up a mistake? I'm curious how this relates to the nuclear explosion. Can you tell me in detail what you went through?"
There was a hint of nostalgia in Bai Fei's voice. "At first, I was just an experimental subject under observation, until these researchers discovered that I could influence people's thoughts, although at first I had to be in close contact, and it was just a thought."
"At first, the group's top management was very excited and conducted numerous experiments, believing this could help them gain more power and wealth, until..."
The air froze for a brief moment, and then Bai Fei's playful laughter, which was a little out of tune, came from all directions, as if he was talking about something interesting.
"Until what?"
"It wasn't until the first nuclear bomb flew into their own territory without warning that they became frightened." Bai Fei's playful laughter paused, a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "Humanity is always like this, creating things they can't control, and then destroying them in the name of 'safety'."
Liu Xia clenched her fingers nervously. She could sense the malice of this "Mother Goddess" in Bai Fei's guise towards humans. "Did you do this?"
Bai Fei didn't answer the question directly, but nodded in agreement. "This sudden nuclear bomb has plunged the entire world into panic, and the group is also considering destroying me."
"So you're going to let the world be buried with you?"
Hearing Liu Xia's words, Bai Fei showed a helpless expression on her face. Her eyes were helpless and tired, as if she was facing a child who misunderstood her.
"You think I can control a nuclear bomb? Destroy the world? Liu Xia, you think too highly of me... My abilities aren't that exaggerated. After so many experiments and upgrades, I can still only implant a thought in someone remotely. I can't actually detonate a nuclear bomb around the world."
"And I don't want to destroy the world. Most humans are good."
Liu Xia's eyes were cold, and her heart was firm and unmoved. After all, she was the one who triggered the first nuclear bomb. What was she planning to do by pretending to be pitiful now?
"That's just because you can't do it." Liu Xia sneered and exposed her lie.
"After all, although there are many nuclear bombs in the world, the launch procedures for each one are extremely complicated and require various secret keys to activate. Even some nuclear bombs cannot be easily activated by the country that owns them, let alone a nuclear bomb sweeping the entire world at the same time."
"You're indeed very perceptive..." Bai Fei chuckled, her tone remaining calm, showing no sign of being caught. "Okay, I did hide it. If I truly had the ability, I would personally eliminate the hidden dangers of war. Although the end result would still be humanity's own destruction, it still wouldn't be as quick as if I had done it myself."
Liu Xia sneered: "Haha... What you mean by eliminating the hidden dangers of war is to trigger a nuclear war around the world?"
"Otherwise, do you have any better way to quickly disarm humanity? Without humanity's wanton destruction, it's only a matter of time before the entire planet becomes green again."
Bai Fei had an indifferent smile on her face, as if even if 90% of the world's human population disappeared, she wouldn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.
"So, the Hyena Gang is also your pawn to disarm humans. Am I right?"
Liu Xia suddenly understood why Hao Feiyang was so crazy. The Hyena Gang was able to lead mutant beasts to attack the Black Gold City, which was also influenced by the ideas implanted in Bai Fei's subconscious mind.
"Xiao Xia, you are still very smart. If you think about it more, you will understand my deep meaning."
"Although there are indeed countries in this world that use force to enslave others for selfish reasons, the vast majority of people are innocent. I cannot understand your behavior."
Liu Xia already understood what the fuse of a nuclear war was in the real world, and did not intend to continue discussing this topic with Bai Fei, which was a mutually unconvincing topic. It was just a waste of time.
She calmly asked the question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time, her tone steady, as if this matter had nothing to do with her: "You were able to create so many of my, no... should I say, Liu Xia's, clones. Could it be that Liu Xia also died after that fall?"
In fact, his fingers were tightly pinching the hem of his clothes, his fingertips were pale, and he was extremely nervous.
Bai Fei lowered her head and sighed softly, then said quietly, "Yes, my best friend Liu Xia died to save me, and her body was also recovered by the group. That's why I have these raw materials to make the clones."
It seemed that only when talking about his good friend Liu Xia from three hundred years ago could Bai Fei, whose heart was calm, feel a ripple.
"I shouldn't have… abandoned my father to save his own life, and ended up killing her. Xiao Xia was the only one who completely trusted me. Even though she knew I'd lied to her, she still chose to jump down and save me. I really shouldn't have…"
Bai Fei's voice and image disappeared in this white space, and no sound was heard for a long time. It seemed that he was immersed in the memories of losing his friend and could not extricate himself.
