Darkness is Coming

   Yang Xiaoqian felt unacceptable. He preferred to believe that this was just a scene co-directed by Liu Yuanzhou and Bai, but this scene had no meaning in existence, which made no sense.

   "Really?" Yang Xiaoqian looked at Liu Yuanzhou, although he could no longer trust him, his words were more believable than Bai's words.

   "Well." Liu Yuanzhou nodded, stretched out his hand again, and asked, "Drink tea?"

   Yang Xiaoqian's mouth was dry and he took the tea cup subconsciously. After hesitating for a moment, he still didn't lower his head to drink the tea in the cup.

   "Can I ask questions?"

When asked this sentence, Yang Xiaoqian firmly grasped the non-insulated tea cup, the hot tea transferred the heat to Yang Xiaoqian's palm through the wall of the cup, fine hand sweat appeared in the palm lines, and the hot burning sensation scorched his heart. It didn't make Yang Xiaoqian's icy heart active.

   Liu Yuanzhou, Liu Zhongqian and Bai nodded at the same time, Yang Xiaoqian hesitated and chose to throw the first question to Liu Zhongqian, only this child could make Yang Xiaoqian retain a little bit of trust.

"Liu Zhongqian, if what you just said is true, then I would like to know that after the disappearance of the dome, the temple has worked so hard to infiltrate Africa, South America, Europe, and the American Commonwealth in the form of religion to form such a complex network of relationships. Mastering nuclear weapons and sitting at the negotiating table. Seeing that they are about to get what they want, so that I know that war is more conducive to their development, and I have to decide to declare war purely because of drinking poison to quench my thirst... Why does the Temple surrender unconditionally at this time? " Yang Xiaoqian said a lot of words in one breath, as if he spit out the messy thoughts in his mind, and his mind became a little clearer. From the initial despair and chaos to the later blankness, and now after returning to normal, there is a clear and ethereal feeling.

   "Because I compromised and conceded defeat, the temple will surrender unconditionally. My control over the temple is deeply ingrained, and even if the temple is against the Holy Family, it will not make waves."

Bai rushed to answer this question before Liu Zhongqian opened his mouth. He didn't know when his right arm broke away from his body. After breaking free from the black mist, Bai walked to Liu Zhongqian's side and stretched out his left hand to pat Liu Zhongqian's shoulder, but the man who patted his shoulder The intention failed again, and this action caused him to lose his left arm.

   Yang Xiaoqian narrowed his eyes and took a timid look. Just now, he seemed to see a dim gray shadow flashing past, and he chopped off Bai's arm silently. The speed was extremely fast, and it was very secretive, making it difficult for people to notice.

After the left arm was chopped off, the round surface of the wound was quickly covered by a layer of fleshy membrane, and no more blood was sprayed out, Bai raised his two bare elbows innocently, and continued to say to Yang Xiaoqian carelessly: "As for the blood. Why did I admit defeat? The reason is very simple, Liu Yuanzhou on your side has failed, and he has no chance of winning, of course he can only admit defeat."

"I didn't ask you." Yang Xiaoqian said coldly. In fact, his subtext was "I didn't understand". If he didn't want to listen to the nonsense, he wouldn't pay attention to it at all, just a rare and ridiculous insistence in his heart. He was reluctant to ask Bai questions.

"Ah, I know you didn't understand, well, I'll explain it to you in detail." Bai pointed at the cylindrical translation machine with his elbow and said, "See, Zero One, you old Liu Kaihang made it. Yes, the first non-carbon-based life in human history, do you know how scary it is?"

  Yang Xiaoqian was silent, thinking back to the various powers of the "system" in the Zero One base before the birth of Zero One, and then thinking about how easily Liu Zhongqian invaded his heavily encrypted office computer...

"It sent the same message to one hundred and sixty-eight clones all over the world at the same time, and it also sent this message to some screens so that my clones who didn't carry any electronics could see it. This news." Bai used a shrug to express his helplessness, because he lost his arms, this action became very funny, "You know, there was a genius named Finch Harold in the United States, who created the A large-scale surveillance and identification system called 'machine' is used by the US federal intelligence agencies to search for terrorists planning terrorist attacks to eliminate potential threats and security risks."

Yang Xiaoqian heard about this when he came to Zero One Base last time, and Xu Le's interrogation statement also mentioned it. Hearing this, Yang Xiaoqian's heart moved. Since the same monitoring system can find out those terrorists with disguised identities, then after Can the mutants who are disguised as humans and lurking in human society be identified after the transformation?

  Vaguely, Yang Xiaoqian captured a crucial point in this battle that never existed.

"As soon as I heard the news, I immediately started robbing Commander Liu, but unfortunately I didn't get it. Because of his early experience, Finch paid special attention to personal privacy and security. Coupled with his godlike skills, he could easily I erased all traces of myself, and even the paper files left in the CIA’s confidential intelligence room were replaced. It’s ridiculous that those fools in the CIA still took the paper files and believed them to be true. So, I lost a step here, lost this step With Finch's help, Commander Liu avoided too many detours, saved a lot of time, and created Zero One before I mastered the negotiating capital."

"With Zero and One, there is no possibility for the saints to sneak into and hide in human society. They can only escape far away, fleeing to a desolate place with no network signal - even if they escape to an uninhabited island, they must always be cautious. Avoid the satellites overhead, haha, how is that possible! The saints have lost their foothold and opportunities for development, while humans have powerful artificial intelligence technology, and the saints will die sooner or later exterminate."

  Bai raised his head, looked at the ceiling at a forty-five-degree angle, and sighed pitifully: "There is no way, for the continuation of my clan, I have to compromise and admit defeat."

   "I want to confirm." Yang Xiaoqian turned to look at Liu Yuanzhou, "Assuming everything you said is true, he will die after the temple unconditionally surrenders? Really?"

Bai immediately replied: "Yes, it will really die. In fact, I reminded you when we first met. Earthworms have limited ability to divide, and my brain's ability to divide is also limited. Go into the brains of the same family to make them feel emotions, but there are still some limitations on the clones I can split. Including this clone, the total number is one hundred and seventy-four. Before I evolve new abilities, or split new ones. Before I clone, eliminating these one hundred and seventy-four bodies will probably wipe me out of this world, um, probably like this. Unfortunately, all of my one hundred and seventy-four bodies have received Liu Commander's ultimatum."

  Yang Xiaoqian took a deep breath and finally asked Bai, "Since admitting defeat means death, why do you obediently admit defeat and surrender unconditionally with the temple?"
