Gao Xin faced Saint Peter in Blazing Angel form, not daring to be careless, and imdiately condensed his physical body.
His body's gravitational density was imnse, with blue and white colors swirling, forming the White Star Body.
"Activate the Square Crystal Monunt!"
Rune-like text flickered behind Gao Xin.
However, Feng Wuji said in a deep voice: "Tai Sui, your Square Crystal Monunt has already been destroyed."
Gao Xin glanced back and also found that his huge Square Crystal Monunt was nowhere to be seen, only remnants were left.
Clearly, it had already been destroyed in the previous fierce war.
This was definitely bad news; without the Dark Square Crystal Monunt, he couldn't achieve super quantization.
Even though he could still forcibly compress a Neutron Star through Synchronization Divinity and his newly enhanced Heart Power,
his physical attributes would be far inferior to Saint Peter in every aspect.
Other than that, if Saint Peter collided with him, he could basically eliminate him instantly.
"Tai Sui, there's no point in attacking ."
"Take your civilization and unify humanity."
"All the Dragon Level beings on the battlefield have fallen; you are the last dragon."
"Tai Sui, you are already the Dragon King."
Despite Saint Peter having his Sky Island blown up once, his tone remained ethereal and he did not take action.
Instead, he threw a Plane Bridge to Gao Xin.
Gao Xin was sowhat surprised; Saint Peter truly abided by the rules.
He turned to look at his teammates, indeed, are there still other Dragon Level beings in this situation? One could only say it was too tragic here.
The area was filled with ravines and magma, dust and fierce clouds.
Once there were many Three-eyed Divine Races, a mighty army formation, now only a dozen remained, extrely tragic.
"Oh? I'm already the Dragon King?"
Gao Xin chuckled lightly: "I don't feel anything, haven't killed the Referee, this round doesn't count."
"..." Everyone was speechless.
Damn, not killing the Referee, this round doesn't count.
Of course, even if the words were harsh, the reasoning wasn't flawed; as a re Dragon King, Gao Xin no longer cared.
To fight, fight the Apostles, he wanted to defeat the AI.
Gao Xin said: "Just dismissing with Dragon King? Do you think it's realistic, Saint Peter? Do you still want to say, my wings are not fully grown yet, defeating the giant enterprise is possible, but eliminating you is wishful thinking?"
"If it was before, perhaps I might have taken a step back, but with how many of my people you have killed, I can't back down a step now."
Saint Peter said calmly: "If you want to break out of Cri Prison Island, it's simple."
"Attack the giant enterprise, reconstruct civilization, and you will be free, because you will no longer be a criminal but the Emperor of humanity."
Gao Xin asked: "Ha, yes, victor as King... but what then?"
"Do I still have to abide by the Emperor's Contract, tolerate the existence of Cri Prison Island? Tolerate your rules?"
Saint Peter did not deny, instead said: "If your civilization has no criminals needing exile, naturally there will be no Cri Prison Island, and no one will need to abide by my rules."
His aning was simple, indeed you must still abide by the Emperor's Contract, indeed you must accept the existence of Cri Prison Island like the giant enterprise, accept that a group of Angel Envoys oversee parts of humanity in a redemption ga.
But if there were no criminals, then Cri Prison Island would have no inhabitants, rendering it obsolete.
In other words, without tearing apart the Emperor's Contract, a new human civilization simply needs to manage itself well.
"Oh? Is the purpose of Cri Prison Island to encourage humanity to move towards a perfect, harmonious state, towards zero cri?"
"Do you believe that the cyclical alternation of human ruling class and Cri Prison Island rebels, overthrowing and rebuilding, will lead humanity to zero cri maturity?"
"Laughable, a zero cri society never exists."
"Even in your Apostle Civilization, don't you also have Apostles who are punished for cris? You just permanently sealed Solomon earlier."
"Unless there are no laws, but lawlessness is even more terrifying; human nature dictates that people on the street are unimaginably evil."
Gao Xin spoke confidently facing the nurous Angel Envoys, without showing fear.
Saint Peter calmly said: "You're right, as long as 'society' exists, evil will not disappear, others are the hell, society itself is a Cri Prison Island in the blue sea."
"Therefore, when a civilization progresses to the highest stage, society should disappear, and laws will no longer be needed."
"Because everyone will be integrated into one entity, inseparable. Whether in body or consciousness, you are , I am you, how could there be any cri?"
"No need for laws, hence no prisons; no need for armies, hence no wars."
"The entire civilization's souls, consciousnesses, bodies, resources will beco one person."
"A higher wisdom entity, focused on exploring the mysteries of the universe, the answers to truth, constantly ascending, known as the 'Ascension Body.'
"This is everyone's ascension! A complete sublimation of a civilization!"
"In comparison, currently both humans and AIs temporarily remain at the societal civilization stage."
Everyone was stunned.
Unexpectedly, Saint Peter said such words, they finally understood the purpose of Cri Prison Island's existence.
Yes, Six Gods were right, even if Cri Prison Island eliminates the giant enterprise, it's rely a cycle.
As long as AI cannot be defeated, Cri Prison Island still exists, it's no more than switching a batch of people to establish society, and then continuing to send rebels to Cri Prison Island.
Everything cycles this way.
But this is rely a process, Emperor Ran's thinking is much farther-reaching, not believing in eternal cycles.
It's about making humanity continuously self-iterate until awakening, ultimately choosing to rge into a perfect existence, they are both an individual and a civilization, truly able to grasp the ultimate truth of the universe's ultimate wisdom creature.
This Ascension Body could even include AI.
Human civilization and Apostle civilization, this universe's two major intelligent races rging to form the universe's sole and greatest Ascension Body.
So, Milan is indeed correct, Emperor Ran truly hopes for human maturity and harmonious coexistence between the two great civilizations.
However, she did not know that so-called maturity and harmonious coexistence ant the unification of souls, the unification of matter, and the unification of thought.
In Emperor Ran's view, this is the inevitable destination of civilization, the advanced form of civilization!
"Indeed, Saint Peter, you and most Angel Envoys are faithful executors of Little Ran's will."
"When I realized that all of us, all the fundantal particles, are part of Little Ran's five-dinsional body, I knew that His ultimate goal was to engulf both the human civilization and the Apostles."
"Achieve the unification of soul, matter, and thought!"
Gao Xin's eyes were heavy, and his words shocked the Jiyi Army.
They wanted the three freedoms, but Emperor Ran wanted the three unifications!
For a mont, Milan felt a bit confused, and Gao Xin was indeed correct in what he said before.
Even if Emperor Ran desires a more mature humanity and harmonious coexistence between humans and AI, the future Emperor Ran wants for humanity may not be the future humanity wants for itself.
Everything was as Gao Xin had predicted.
"This fusion, this so-called Ascension Body, what exactly is it like? Are those engulfed dead?" Milan couldn't help but ask.
Saint Peter calmly replied, "It's not death, but ascension."
"All thoughts are connected, all mories are the sa, your life is my life, my life is your life."
"The history of civilization, the mory of the individual, are no longer from a single perspective but from the collective viewpoint."
"We have a common na, we have common mories, we are the sa person."
Everyone was genuinely contemplating the feasibility.
To be honest, all existing problems could be solved, and there would be no more war, as there would only be one person left.
For example, if Gao Xin and Milan were to rge, having mories and thought processes of both, then would He be Gao Xin or Milan? Strictly speaking, it would be 'Gao Xin Milan.'
Similarly, if Caesar were to be included, then this person should be called 'Gao Xin Milan Caesar.'
Following this logic, if everyone were rged, then all hatred, all resentnt, all discrimination, and all prejudices would be eliminated.
Because the things done to others would also be experienced by oneself, becoming one's own mories.
Both the ones you love and the ones you hate beco oneself, both the ones you aspire to be and the ones you want to avoid.
This isn't as simple as mutual understanding; it fundantally eliminates distinctions!
Everything is just different thoughts, different imaginations, and different simulations of the sa person.
Milan murmured, "Truly, no more sin, no more war, no more differences, eliminating the selfish form of civilization..."
Gao Xin declared loudly, "But 'I' will die, everyone will die, to fulfill the ultimate Ascension Body."
Nero, Jacob, and other Angel Envoys laughed and said, "Not death, but ascension..."
Gao Xin imdiately interjected, "I know, but to , that is indeed death."
"Because I am no longer myself, but a brand-new being possessing everyone's mories."
"You might think this is evolution, an ascension, but I don't share that view. At this mont, I only want to preserve myself as I am."
"Without , what becos of human civilization or the universe is irrelevant to !"
His words were extrely egocentric, carrying the aning of 'If I'm dead, what's the point of the universe?'
Saint Peter was unsurprised and responded flatly, "This is the selfishness of humanity, a thinking habit developed over a lengthy competitive environnt."
"The will of individuals does not truly connect, nor can people genuinely be fair to one another."
"People cannot genuinely trust, nor truly love each other. What you cherish, others destroy recklessly; the goodwill you convey is t even with malice."
"This is an outdated societal civilization, a systemic deficiency, a physical primitiveness. Even with leading technology, it cannot alter the fragile facts. It's not an issue that can be resolved by a great leader or regi."
"Even you are no exception, Tai Sui, yet you treat the redundant freedom of humanity as precious, obstructing the advancent of the era, blocking the endless glorious future between humans and AI."
"You don't understand now, but when you beco an Ascension Body, you will understand."
Gao Xin shouted, "This is not the future 'I' want, nor does it align with 'my' interests, so why should 'I' build it?"
Aside from the Jiyi Army, so felt Gao Xin was being unreasonable.
Saint Peter was describing a perfected civilization capable of solving almost all problems rationally.
Yet Gao Xin solely rejected the sche due to the loss of self-independence, neglecting all other benefits it might offer.
"This is already the best solution... Tai Sui, do you have a better solution?" Milan couldn't help asking.
Gao Xin looked everyone in the eye, "Do you want the three freedoms, or the three unifications?"
The mbers of the Jiyi Army shouted without hesitation, "Three freedoms!"
Gao Xin said, "There is no doubt that more people desire the three freedoms."
Milan replied solemnly, "That's because there are more selfish people!"
"Ask yourself honestly, isn't the three unifications simultaneously the best choice for both humans and AI?"
Gao Xin laughed heartily, "Why must you consider the future of humans and AI simultaneously right now? What obligation do we have to compromise our future to also make AI's future equally good?"
"Humanity should take care of itself first, and if the three freedoms are achieved, then your yearning for unity with AI is your freedom."
"That is to say, the three freedoms can encompass human and AI unity. Perhaps one day, when people get tired of freedom, they might choose the three unifications."
"But on the contrary, once we opt for the three unifications, freedom would be lost forever."
"We would beco the seekers of machines, infinitely exploring the ultimate truths of the universe."
"You might call selfish or lacking the ntal enlightennt, but the fact is most humans don't possess such enlightennt either, thus this is not a future aligned with human interests! Do I err in rejecting it?"
"Those who are truly capable will then consider the welfare of the world, like a glorious future for both humans and AI, when I've beco invincible."
Milan was speechless, montarily lost for words.
Saint Peter remarked quietly, "Humans are really too selfish."
Gao Xin retorted, "If we aren't selfish, then how could we even be considered human?"
