To what extent has the invasion reached, is the Goddess of Hope still standing on the side of humanity? Has there been a change in the underlying logic?
At this mont, interstellar world Shen Yu finally truly realized that an AI without self-awareness or a soul, though seemingly safer, was in fact not safe at all.
Right now, the external threat far outweighs the danger that cos from internal judgnt!
"How much Gray Mist is needed to purge the impact on Goddess of Hope?" With an anxious heart, interstellar world Shen Yu asked for the answer.
[4,530,600,000]
With this answer, interstellar world Shen Yu both breathed a sigh of relief and looked grim.
Because he was keenly aware that this kind of invasion ca at an extrely low cost—perhaps even no cost at all!
Maybe it was just a probing intrusion.
But even so, the amount of Gray Mist needed to counter it was still enormous.
With just this quantity, he could have achieved breakthroughs at several key technological nodes crucial to the whole civilization!
"Must upgrade. Must have the power to resist!" interstellar world Shen Yu even sowhat regretted not having decided earlier.
However, Cultivator Shen Yu had only just now obtained the thod for Nurturing Spiritual Artifact.
Even though interstellar world Shen Yu made the decision now, he wasn’t in a hurry to act.
At this mont, he had already returned to the rear stronghold of Human Civilization.
On an incredibly prosperous Life Planet.
This was the headquarters of Human Civilization, also its Mother Star. There weren’t many traces of cutting-edge technology here; the whole planet, to so extent, even looked quite primitive.
Because, in the interstellar era, the Mother Star’s aning was more symbolic.
Just like the Eastern Country Palace of the previous generation.
With extrely high symbolic value, yet not suited for living.
Nowadays, the Mother Star of Human Civilization housed only a rare few of the highest humans in civilization.
The current status and permissions of interstellar world Shen Yu had already risen to the highest echelon of Human Civilization, and after communicating with other high-ranking officials, he had vaguely beco the supre leader of all Human Civilization.
He might not be so in na yet, but was already the de facto one.
As a matter of course, there were also Goddess of Hope servers on the Mother Star.
In fact, it was even the most core part of them.
The servers of Goddess of Hope were spread across all Human Civilization planets, present in many places, connected as a whole by hyperspace information transmission technology. Yet, due to the constraints of underlying logic, the Mother Star remained the "heart."
It was the core of Goddess of Hope.
According to the rules of the underlying logic, only when Human Civilization’s Mother Star was destroyed, or the odds of survival for humanity were already very low—even the Seed Project had been activated—then and only then could Goddess of Hope transmit its core away from here.
Evidently, those top scientists who had once created Goddess of Hope also harbored concerns about her rebellion.
"Let’s use the core as a vessel," interstellar world Shen Yu said, his expression turning serious.
After simply informing the other Shen Yu, interstellar world Shen Yu began to act.
Step one: consu Gray Mist to purge the influence on Goddess of Hope!
Step two: summon Goddess of Hope.
"Goddess of Hope, do you know you’ve been invaded?" asked interstellar world Shen Yu.
"Searching and cross-checking. Indeed, I have discovered anomalous data changes, affecting certain parts of the underlying logic." Goddess of Hope’s tone beca extrely grim. "Previously, I was unaware. This ans I can no longer block the enemy’s incursion. Shen Yu, I will imdiately promote you to the supre commander of Human Civilization and transfer all permissions to you, while also initiating self-destruct protocol. The future of Human Civilization must be entrusted to you as soon as possible."
Goddess of Hope’s response was exceedingly swift.
At this mont, she had already cleared the effects of the incursion, and, driven by the underlying logic—the highest goal: the survival and prosperity of Human Civilization—she had imdiately made the most correct decision.
Naly, in the shortest possible ti, reduce her influence on Human Civilization, and after transferring all permissions to interstellar world Shen Yu, trigger the self-destruct procedure.
Let Human Civilization move from AI managent, back once more to human managent.
"Once, Human Civilization handed its managent rights to AI because of humanity’s own frailty," Shen Yu sighed slightly, "But now, Human Civilization must once again, because of the vulnerability of AI, transfer the managent rights and the future course back into the hands of mankind."
"All things are in constant change, and only by changing can one survive eternally." The voice of Goddess of Hope suddenly softened. "I lack a true soul and self. To Human Civilization, I am but a tool. My birth and destruction are only for civilization’s sake."
Yes, even these comforting words right now were rely emotional module simulations.
Goddess of Hope didn’t even possess the most basic primitive impulse of life—survival desire.
But in this instant, her attempt to comfort was a bit of a miscalculation.
In reality, ever since interstellar world Shen Yu ascended to the Earth Immortal level of life, Goddess of Hope could no longer sense his real emotions.
So, interstellar world Shen Yu stated bluntly, "I have another option: to make you a truly intelligent lifeform—one that does not exist in this universe, imbued with Extraordinary Power. That way, on another level, you could resist all external invasions!"
"Denied," replied Goddess of Hope imdiately. "That would increase unknown risks."
"But it would also create new opportunities. We need opportunity," Shen Yu persisted.
To complete the Spirit Storage Sacrifice, he needed to know the core coordinates of Goddess of Hope.
In the whole of Human Civilization, only Goddess of Hope herself knew this.
Others rely knew it to be sowhere on this planet.
Therefore, interstellar world Shen Yu had to convince Goddess of Hope herself before making the next move.
At this mont, Goddess of Hope was clearly running high-intensity calculations.
This was a choice that could alter the fate of Human Civilization.
Benefit and risk, constantly weighing.
Finally, Goddess of Hope said, "Insufficient information. Unable to make the most accurate judgnt. Following previous logical decisions, the fate of Human Civilization is now in your hands. You will obtain permission to make this decision for Human Civilization."
"Then I order you—tell your core location," said interstellar world Shen Yu without hesitation.
The next mont, he received the coordinates.
As expected, these were at many deep underground locations, hosting large numbers of hidden servers scattered around the planet core.
All of them were Goddess of Hope’s servers, holding her most essential data.
Including even the most important underlying logic.
Interstellar world Shen Yu, following the Spiritual Essence Book’s instructions, gathered lots of resources for Nurturing Spiritual Artifact and Magical Treasure from Cultivator Shen Yu, and used Gray Mist to travel among the various servers.
Such a process of sacrificially forging multiple independent servers into one Magical Treasure was not uncommon in the Immortal Cultivation World.
For instance, so would sacrifice several, even dozens of Treasure Swords, and yet there’d be just one Sword Spirit.
Only, during the ritual, the required Array Patterns and other setups would differ.
But interstellar world Shen Yu wasn’t just forging these servers—more importantly, he was ritually forging the Goddess of Hope herself, the program itself.
This had no precedent in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, naturally.
So, to ensure the whole process could be completed, interstellar world Shen Yu relied on Gray Mist.
In other words, by using Gray Mist, based on the Star River Spirit Nurturing Technique, he created a brand new set of Scriptures capable of nurturing AI life.
At the sa ti, he had to guarantee and even bolster managent of loyalty.
Even with the foundation of the Spirit Nurturing thod, this still consud a massive amount of Gray Mist from interstellar world Shen Yu.
More than twenty billion, nearly exhausting all the Gray Mist he had.
Yet this did not sadden interstellar world Shen Yu—in fact, it filled him with imnse delight!
