Game Loading Chapter 194-196

Collapsed God 28

'Setting yourself against yourself, Bg Jiang, you are really able!'

J stared at Jiang Xie. After watching for a moment, he seemed ashamed of himself and incredibly lost. He didn't say anything else and left.

Xie Xi didn't know where to start scolding!

Big Jiang was a general of the army and the symbol of courage and fearlessness in the United States. Now he was scared half to dealt by his 'love rival' and dreamt of his rival as someone with a mental disability! Did he think J would back down like this if J was a little bit normal?

Really…

Xie Xi didn't know if he should laugh or cry but there was a taste of sweetness.

A man who faced death, who was so confident that other people felt he was arrogant, because of Xie Xi…

If Big Jiang didn't care then how could be he so cautious? He was cautious and didn't dare to compete fairly with his love rival.

J left and it was estimated he wouldn't appear in the dream again.

Xie Xi glanced at Jiang Xie. "That person was very strong. I-I don't know what he was talking about."

The slight stutter caused Jiang Xie's gaze to deepen.

Xie Xi added, "How can a rational marry an emotional…"

Jiang Xie told him, "There is no law that a rational and emotional can't marry."

This was the default public opinion of all citizens in the United States but it was true that no genders were stated in the marriage law.

Freedom was the foundation of the United States and freedom of marriage was also crucial.

Xie Xi hesitated for a moment, not sure if he should bring up the memory of the judge.

Thinking about it, he didn't need to worry about this. Jiang Xie was 100% an opportunist. as long as there was a glimmer of hope, even if it was as thin as a hair, he would never miss it.

Otherwise, how could he survive his many years of being so unlucky?

The dream changed and Xie Xi found himself sitting at him. He felt that Big Jiang should be on the way to see his memories.

It was true that only the Chief Justice and Xie Xi should be able to see them but Jiang Xie was currently Xie Xi's partner. He had a certain authority over many things and in addition, Jiang Xie's position had many privileges and he could see some private things.

It might be a dream but it was very logical. Otherwise, the person could wake up from the dream!

Xie Xi saw that Jiang Xie was back and this person looked like he had lost his soul.

Xie Xi was 100% sure that Jiang Xie went to see the memories.

“Minister, what happened?" They might be in a relationship but it was a love between rational people. Calling the other person by their title was more comfortable than their name.

Jiang Xie grasped his hair, a storm in his silver-grey eyes. "You…"

Xie Xi breathed out and felt this was the crucial moment to control the heat. "Are you angry?"

"No." Jiang Xie closed his eyes and tried to calm down his emotions.

He had watched the memories of Xie Xi's first round. He saw the Xie Xi who was immersed in love and saw his despair and sorrow after losing his lover.

This scene was like a poisonous snake that bit at his heart, giving him a numb pain. He was like a butterfly coming out of a broken cocoon, tearing out endless hope.

A rational didn't understand love but Xie Xi had once fallen in love with a person.

Xie Xi could love someone, he could understand love, it just… just… took time.

Time, time, time…

The Jiang Xie with an SSS-grade physique wasn't lacking in time!

Then he thought about Xie Xi's recent coldness towards him. Why? In those long 200 years, Xie Xi didn't become tired or repulsed by that man. Was Jiang Xie not as good as that man? He…

Jiang Xie finally asked the question. "During this time, why have you always been hiding from me?" The answer would be obvious if he hadn't read the memories of the third round. It was because a rational was like this.

Xie Xi was thankful this person asked!

He was inwardly relieved but his face was nervous. "Previously, Joey of the equipment department said I was too sticky with you…"

Jiang Xie's eyes shook.

Xie Xi spoke cautiously, "I felt I should give you some space. We are both rational and you will be very troubled if I am around you all day."

Jiang Xie's mood at this moment was: He wanted to drive away the loud Joey to a desolate star! Troubled? He was most troubled if Xie Xi left his sight!

"You…" Jiang Xie tried to calm his voice and maintain the stability of an old partner. "Are you bothered? Do you find it annoying to be with me every day?"

Xie Xi silently cursed, 'Being with six or seven of you every day is really annoying!'

Of course, his face was very engrossed in the act. "I don't… I just afraid that you are bothered…"

Jiang Xie couldn't help pressing him, "Do you like being with me every day? Just like before, always by my side."

Xie Xi lowered his eyes and his voice was very small. "I like it."

Jiang Xie's heart trembled and he held this person in his arms. "Xiao Xie."

Xie Xi felt the trembling of Jiang Xie's body and his heart was sour and sweet. "Yes."

"There's something I've been keeping from you."

Xie Xi's chin touched Jiang Xie's shoulder and his lips curved. "What is it?"

"I am an emotional and…" Jiang Xie's voice was a bit heavy due to excessive tension and fear. "I love you."

Xie Xi knew this was a dream but his nose was still itchy.

He tried to remain shocked but he wanted to kiss and comfort this person, letting Jiang Xie know that Xie Xi loved him and it was no less than his feelings. Xie Xi was just as afraid of losing Jiang Xie as it was the other way around.

Later, Xie Xi had to forcibly leave Big Jiang's dream.

The reason was unspeakable.

In short, if he didn't come out then his curing agent would be in vain. It would all be handed over to the perverted dream!

Don't look at what he showed clearly. Big Jiang might be pretending to be a rational and pretended to be deeply calm but once shown… Then his tail would rise!

In the dream, everything else was fast-forwarded. It just became dark, dark and dark again!

Xiao Xie was exhausted! Dying in the perverted dream… this was the most amazing way to complete the dream!

Xie Xi hurriedly hugged Roast Pork Bun and left the room. The kitten was wilted as his head rubbed against Xie Xi's palm.

Xie Xi was distressed. "Are you very tired?"

The kitten yawned. "I'm a bit sleepy."

"Take this physical medicine."

The kitten sucked on the red bottle.

After Xie Xi was promoted to the intermediate level, Roast Pork Bun was also upgraded.

As a golden god-level pet, his abilities after the upgrade were quite large. The passive skill increased the number of fatal injuries immunity and the qualifications of the active skill, Dreaming was also enhanced.

Originally, it could only be used on the same person once every three days. Now the same person could be entered two times in three days, allowing Xie Xi to enter Big Jiang's dream twice.

However, the continuous physical exertion on Roast Pork Bun's part was larger and the kitten easily fell asleep.

Xie Xi was worried but Roast Pork Bun still remembered his fathers. He drank the medicine and cheered up."There is Little Father!"

Xie Xi was amused by this name and patted the kitten's head. "If you are tired then rest. Tomorrow…"

Roast Pork Bun shook his head. "It's fine. I can sleep a while as Father's dream progresses.

This was true and Xie Xi also didn't feel comfortable in his heart. He wanted to soothe Little Jiang and leave early to find the Creator and end this world.

"Then use Dreaming again," Xie Xi ordered.

Roast Pork Bun nodded. "No problem!"

Xie Xi looked at his status and determined it was okay to continue using Dreaming.

Compared to Large Jiang and J, Little Jiang's side seemed strangely pitiful. After all, the other two had a rich summary while poor Little Jiang had nothing.

What would he dream about? Xie Xi couldn't think about it. After all, this man's brain circuits were like the 18 curves in a mountain road.

The sleeping Little Jiang didn't turn into Jiang Xie. The frequency of Jiang Xie waking up was very delicate. He only appeared once Little Jiang's consciousness was completely empty.

This type of stabilizer used made the body relax but Little Jiang was still dreaming. Thus, Jiang Xie couldn't come out.

Xie Xi used Dreaming and easily entered Little Jiang's dream.

He found himself pressed under the other person.

Um… Sure enough, regardless of age, their hearts were exactly the same.

In this way, Jiang Xie was right to set himself up as an emotional. Nothing was rational about him!

Little Jiang just kissed him and didn't do anything else. Xie Xi wasn't clear about his state and cautiously didn't open his mouth.

Little Jiang stared at Xie Xi's motionless self and his voice was slightly husky. "Why aren't you pushing me away?"

Xie Xi, "…"

Little Jiang continued to ask, "I'm not sleepwalking. I am very sober…" As he spoke, he moved down and kissed Xie XI again.

Xie Xi's heart jumped.

Little Jiang's eyes sparkled. "You can push me away. Why aren't you?"

Xie Xi told him, "Get off."

His presidential tone pricked the guilty conscience.

Little Jiang got up but he kept holding Xie Xi's hand. "Tell me, why did you save me, why did you care so much, why did you personally cook for me?"

This young man was bold. The teenager was really fearless and as long as he was clear about his own mind, he would dare to ask anything.

Xie Xi remembered the answer he gave in reality. 'Wait until you come back.'

Then once Little Jiang came back from his task, Big Jiang and J were in place and Xie Xi couldn't tell him.

Now in the dream, Xie Xi replied, "You are still young, once you grow up…"

Little Jiang didn't have a heavy burden like Big Jiang and his mind was much clearer. "If you just want sex, there is no need to wait for me to grow up."

Why was this so strange?!

LIttle Jiang added, "I mean, you can have sex with anyone. You don't necessarily need to wait for me to grow up."

Xie Xi looked at him and smiled. "Still… I want to wait for you to grow up."

This gentle sentence caused the teenager's eyes to widen, the glowing stars in them more dazzling than the Milky Way.

It wasn't necessarily a good thing to have the past setting and feelings. Little Jiang's dream was very sweet. The overall tone was so light that people couldn't help smiling.

They stayed in the presidential palace. There was no danger from the universe collapsing, no Mr. Jiang to obstruct them and no J constantly searching for Xie Xi.

Little Jiang's dream was like a warm fairy tale, full of anticipation and hope.

Xie Xi was initially afraid there was a pit. After all, this dream was too simple and it wasn't like Jiang Xie.

Then he thought that this might be the 15 year old Jiang Xie. He might've lived a long time, long enough to design many worlds, but he still had a period where he was young and immature.

It was the naive and full of yearning Jiang Xie who hadn't entered Central or experienced the baptism of countless worlds.

Xie Xi was destined to be unable to meet that Jiang Xie but he accidentally touched on it in this dream. The Little Jiang who was pure, undisguised and full of deep love for Xie Xi.

Once Jiang Xie became an adult, he asked Xie Xi again,

“Why did you save me? Why are you taking care of me? Why do you keep cooking for me? "

Xie Xi put down the cup in his hand, leaned forward and replied,

"It is because I love you."

Little Jiang's dream ended and Xie Xi was still smiling.

At this time, he received a message from Li Su. "Mr. President, your sleeping cabin is ready."

All three Jiang Xie were resting and Xie Xi also needed it. The four of them would go through a three day leap jump to reach the coordinates of the pole.

Xie Xi responded, "I'll come over straight away."

He would sleep first, wake up together and set off together.

It was no longer possible to discuss anything with the main Jiang but as long as the creator was found, this repair task should be almost finished.

Xie Xi was curious in his heart. What exactly was the Creator?

Collapsed God 29

The role of Dreaming was obvious. After waking up from the maintenance, all three people were in a very good state of mind.

Needless to say, J killed his enemy, solved the pain of reincarnation and fulfilled his promise. He accompanied Xie Xi and never left him alone.

Big Jiang's bitter drama was also treated. He might feel regretful after waking up but he didn't give up hope. If he cheered up, he would definitely want to compensate Xie Xi and reawaken their love in reality… After all, compared to all the memories of the first round being erased, Xie Xi only erased some memories of Big Jiang and his success rate was greater.

There was no need to speak about Little Jiang's love drama. This was full of hope and vitality, with no worries. In addition, he thought that J and Big Jiang were all in the past. Xie Xi now liked him since Xie Xi personally cooked delicious food for him.

He would retreat 10,000 steps now but once he was of age, Little Jiang will beat these two people…

Xie Xi was more puzzled that the three people didn't care about their appearance.

In Big Jiang's bitter drama, he never regarded himself as a substitute for J. In Little Jiang's youth drama, he didn't regard himself as a substitute for his two seniors.

They obviously looked the same. With their dog blood brains, how could they ignore such an important substitute branch?

Yet they just ignored it.

Xie Xi thought about it and felt it was a setting of the world.

Many citizens in the United States had the same face because of the gene pool reproduction so it wasn't strange?

This was also very strange. Why would a gene pool reproduction have so many similar facial features? It was like coming out of a mould.

Everything was hard to say. After all, Xie Xi had never experienced a high-tech world and he had no idea how society would end.

Everything was ready and they left.

The itinerary was set for seven days. Six days for the journey back and forth and one day to look for the Creator.

It was only a small problem for Xie Xi to leave for such a short time. As long as the public didn't know, the operation of the country wouldn't be a problem.

After all, this was a complete society. The short-term departure of the president wouldn't paralyze the government.

Before leaving, Xie Xi checked with the other three. "This trip might be safe, it might also be dangerous. Are you ready to make a sacrifice for the United States?" His superiors used to speak like this.

The three people nodded solemnly, in unison. "We're ready."

Xie Xi sighed and whispered, "Let's go."

They boarded the ship. In order to pursue speed, the starship was small and only 20 metres long. It was 3~4 metres wide and less than 10 metres high.

It might not seem small at first but please be aware that the most common civilian starship in the United States was several kilometres long.

In this way, the current starship seemed as small as a grain of dust in space.

Of course, it had very few passengers. There were only four people and this was still spacious.

Apart from J, they all had a starship driver's license and could easily control the starship.

Xie Xi had progressed from general to president and should be familiar with the starships but they were all settings. The real Xie Xi… only had a driver's license in Dream Come true and only saw shift stick in photos.

Fortunately, there was no need for the president to do this type of work. Thanks to Big Jiang and Little Jiang, the opening was stable and proper.

There was nothing to do and J was around Xie Xi. Big Jiang and Little Jiang glanced at each other and came to an agreement.

Originally, the two people were driving. Now it became one person and the other person was responsible for monitoring their rival. After a certain amount of time, they would change positions.

Xie Xi didn't know if he should laugh or cry but he really couldn't reveal these things. Otherwise, he would open the ship and let these three cock fighters play together.

Perhaps it was the three rules or being appeased in the dream—of course, they also had a serious mentality about this mission—but they got along with each other for three days and there were no troubles.

Xie Xi was quite comfortable and there was a bit of happiness in people's mind.

Forget it, this happiness couldn't be enjoyed. It was a brief calm in the storm. Don't think that he couldn't see through it!

Once they were almost at the coordinate point and the starship started to slow down, Xie Xi's mind was tense as he waited for this final level.

The world as a whole would be fine. The start might involve the danger of the collapsed universe but there would soon be a turnaround.

As for the need for four SSS-grade people to explore, this wasn't difficult for Xie Xi. The problem wasn't big as long as he managed to coax Jiang Xie.

So what exactly was this Creator?

Could it save the United States and allow it to survive the collapse of the universe.

Thanks to Xie Xi's seriousness, the others were also serious. Big Jiang was responsible for the starship driving while J was responsible for surveying. Little Jiang was responsible for being alert to the surrounding environment to avoid danger.

Xie Xi stared at the navigation as they gradually reached a point that was too small…

The starship slowly approached, the speed of the approach became near static and they finally reached the coordinates given by the pole.

J cried out, "I found the target!"

Xie Xi looked up and saw the image suspended in midair. He had imagined it countless times but he was stunned when actually seeing it.

There were no grand palaces, no magnificent scenery and no signs of life. This was a waste star floating in the void.

The constant exploration of the universe meant the United States had a very comprehensive understanding of planets.

The so-called waste star was a planet that floated in the void for some reason. They were like grains of sand in the cosmic sand sea. They were insignificant and lifeless, with little hope and value.

J frowned. "This is the location of the Creator?"

Somehow, Xie Xi's scalp was numb when he saw this waste star. He wasn't wary of danger. It was a sense of horror due to familiar things being beyond recognition.

This…

Little Jiang frowned. "Can a god be living in such a deserted place?"

Xie Xi's senses returned and his voice was tight. "Go, let's go down and take a look."

Jiang Xie drove the starship to land on the waste star. It might be severely worn out and the original shape and size of the waste star couldn't be seen, but it was still huge. A small starship landing on it was like a firefly in an endless forest.

Little Jiang opened his mouth. "I don't detect any danger."

Jiang Xie suggested, "Don't leave the starship."

Xie Xi understood his concerns. In the years since the interstellar exploration started, the supreme order of the exploration army was to never underestimate any planet.

Xie Xi ordered, "Fly around. X, help me with detecting life."

"No problem."

J took over the defense work, always on guard.

Xie Xi hadn't used these devices before but there were instructions in the database. He could remember the instructions with one glance and there was X's cooperation so there were no problems.

The speed of flying around the world was extremely fast. This wasn't a linear flight but a planar one as they searched the entire surface of the waste star.

Finally, a target point was locked. Xie Xi stared at the position and tried to outline it in his mind. Unfortunately, his knowledge of Earth was too limited to determine exactly where it was.

Yes, Xie Xi suspected that this waste star was Earth, the planet that gave birth to human society. Xie Xi couldn't describe why he felt this way but once he saw the planet, the thoughts suddenly appeared in his mind.

What was the so-called Creator? Xie Xi's heart couldn't help trembling. He had a nervous feeling that he was about to touch on a great secret.

The starship stopped and landed at the position that showed signs of life.

Xie Xi sighed and Jiang Xie spoke, "I will go down to see."

Little Jiang also said, "I will go with Mr. Jiang."

Xie Xi shook his head. "We will go together."

The three people were afraid of unknown dangers on the ground.

Xie Xi told them, "The requirement from the pole is that four SSS-grade people are needed to see the Creator. I think we all have to go down."

This was true and Jiang Xie didn't say anything else. They were just watchful and 100,000 points alert to any unknown danger.

After wearing protective clothing, they left the starship and gently stood on this desolate and dead star.

Jiang Xie started the excavation equipment and easily cleared the ruins. They followed the tips on the life detector and found the location of the faint signs of light.

Xie Xi came forward and saw a cold sleeping cabin.

J, a painter who was less exposed to technology, couldn't help saying, "This is a sleeping cabin?" The style was too old.

Little Jiang was young and asked, "Is this the Creator?"

The three adults couldn't answer his question.

Was this the Creator?

Could such a Creator save the United States? He couldn't even protect himself.

Xie Xi ordered, "Take out the ecological cover from the starship."

The ecological cover could support a short and livable environment on a planet that wasn't suitable for people to live. It was like a tent carried by travellers when exploring the forest.

Little Jiang replied, "I'll get it."

He quickly returned and Xie Xi opened the ecological cover over the area.

The originally breathless and cold enough to freeze everything environment suddenly became a suitable temperature and they were able to breathe.

They took off their protective clothing and approached the cold sleeping cabin.

Jiang Xie examined it and said, "It's very old. The age is unknown but the operation is normal."

Xie Xi wondered, "Can you wake him up?"

"Yes."

Xie Xi sighed. "Wake him up."

The reason why he opened this ecological cover was because the sleeping cabin couldn't be carried around.

The age was unknown and the slightest movement might cause irreversible damage. the best way was to restore the ecological environment and explore it on the spot.

Vital signs were detected and although the model of the sleeping cabin was unknown, it was something that the United States could understand. Thus, the ecological cover also protected it.

Thanks to Jiang's careful operation, the sleeping cabin slowly opened and the cold chill disappeared. Xie Xi saw a very ordinary middle-aged man.

He was around 50 or 60 years old. His hair was slightly balding, his face was sallow, his body was a bit fat, his arms and abdomen were flabby and his legs were short.

Little Jiang frowned. "This… is a person?"

The other two also had furrowed brows. "Why is there such an ill-proportioned body?"

In the United States, there was absolutely no such body. Everyone had a standard body shape and were well-proportioned. There might be tall and short people but they didn't have a problem with being fat or skinny. They were standard body fat percentages, like it was precisely calculated.

In fact, real humans had been plagued with fatness or skinniness throughout their lives. They worked hard to improve their bodies, constantly hoping they could be more beautiful.

At first, Xie Xi thought that the United States was like this because of highly developed technology that allowed humans to get rid of physical troubles and move towards a more advanced society.

Now… he suspected that the citizens of the United States and the so-called humans were two distinct species.

The middle-aged man woke up from a coma and wasn't surprised when he saw the person in front of him. Instead, he asked, "981, how long have I been sleeping?"

He was asking Little Jiang. Little Jiang was shocked and glanced at Xie Xi.

Xie Xi came over and said, "It is currently 3010 in the United States. Sir, can I ask who you are?"

The middle-aged man saw Xie Xi and froze. He saw a complex expression of fear and tension before whispering, "Humans… have they self-destructed?"

Jiang Xie replied, "Human civilization still exists but it is facing a huge crisis. The clue we found told us that you can save the United States."

Jiang Xie spoke these words out of routine. He didn't feel this person could save the universe that was about to collapse.

This person was too weak and if there was a physical evaluation, this was a body that shouldn't be born at all.

The man's eyesight was poor, his eyes had obvious lesions, his nose also had problems with some type of inflammation and his mouth was ridiculously inlaid with a few metal teeth?

The body was even more exaggerated. The cervical vertebra had been deformed and the nerves oppressed. There were problems in the shoulders and he probably had arm pain all year round. The lumbar vertebra was more prominent in two sections and the lungs and internal organs were also in a very serious state. Even the heart had insufficient blood supply.

This physical quality couldn't even be counted as the lowest F-grade! It wasn't an exaggeration to say that any citizen of the United States could kill him.

This was the Creator? This was God? It was too ridiculous!

The middle-aged man seemed to calm down. He spoke very slowly and his language was weird, but the four people with a strong SSS-grade mentality could understand.

The higher the level of mental power, the stronger the empathy. Thus, they could understand the meaning the middle-aged man wanted to express.

"Can you tell me something about the present situation?" He paused before saying awkwardly, "Your United States."

In a calm tone, Xie Xi described the exploration of the universe by the United States, the social form of the United States, the living conditions of the citizens…

The middle-aged man listened with eyes filled with yearning but he soon lowered his gaze and whispered, "It is a beautiful time but unfortunately, it doesn't belong to humans."

Little Jiang couldn't help asking. "We are all humans. Why do you say that this doesn't belong to humans?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Little Jiang and smiled. "981, sorry…" He apologized. "I don't know your current name but I want to tell you that you aren't humans. Human beings have been replaced by you."

Xie Xi had a hunch that he could hear the truth from the only remaining true human but he still had a sense of trepidation.

In a sense, this middle-aged man was indeed the creator of the United States and the god of all citizens.

It was just that this god was so weak he wasn't even a match for his most ordinary believer.

Humans created artificial intelligence, created a creature far beyond itself and was finally replaced by it.

Humans disappeared into the long river of history and the artificial intelligence created by them established a real universal empire, fulfilling their unreachable dreams.

Over time, the artificial intelligence forgot their own creators and made their own social system, becoming a real life.

Like humans, they were curious about where they came from, curious about the existence of the Creator and even faithfully worshipping the Creator.

There was no doubt that both theists and atheists believed that God was incomparably powerful.

Actually, the Creator was so ordinary and weak.

The gods high above, the gods who created everything didn't necessarily dominate everything.

They had even been replaced.

Collapsed God End

After hearing this and thinking about it, many clues proved that the United States wasn't a conventional human society that Xie Xi could understand.

The gender division of rational and emotional was an unacceptable one-size-fits-all approach to complex human nature.

There was no absolute rationality in people or people who were absolutely emotional. People couldn't be defined by a label and each individual was incredibly different.

Whether it was emotional or rational, each division was too one-sided. It was as if there was an effort to imitate humans but it didn't work.

The method of reincarnation could also be understood. Artificial intelligence was close to eternal life. They created a body similar to human bodies and once the bodies became old and sick, they entered reincarnation and obtained a new shell. Yet their essence was still the invisible data.

As for the gene pool, it was estimated to be what the earliest batch of artificial intelligence left behind.

It was said that the gene pool was used to produce life but in fact, it was simply to create bodies.

The earliest batch of artificial intelligence forget these facts along with the reincarnation and this truth disappeared into history, the guise left behind becoming true.

There were techniques such as erasing memories, super high-speed brain computing ability, trying to eat but not enjoying food, the rigid genders imposed on them… there were signs in many places.

The emotional gender seemed the most human-like because they had feelings. Could this gender distinction be due to variation in the original batch of artificial intelligence?

One side was purely rational and didn't understand emotions. The other side came in contact with humans and learnt from them, gaining some empathy.

Thus, there was the existence of rational and emotional.

The emotional tried to change the rational but unfortunately, rational people only learnt physiological desires.

The rational also tried to change the emotional but the reason was to cause pain and near destruction.

It was unknown how much the two sides had experienced in their long history before they developed the present social form. They legally and morally constrained each other and co-existed in harmony.

The things that happened in the first place and the reasons for humanity's disappearance couldn't be verified.

Everything left behind only showed the exploration and struggles of the artificial intelligence.

The middle aged man sighed. "These bodies are the shackles you gave yourself."

An artificial intelligence didn't need the fragile human flesh at all but they reproduced themselves into this appearance.

This was simply due to their yearning for humanity. They might have enough power to look down on their creators but they still remembered the infinite longing for humans.

Compared to Xie Xi who could still think clearly, the three Jiang Xie were completely stunned and their three views were shattered.

Xie Xi could understand how complicated their emotions were right now.

From another angle, the earth was going to be destroyed and humanity wiped out. The heroes found a way to save the world and went through many hardships to come to this holy place to see the legendary god. Then they found that god was an ant that could be crushed with their fingers.

The ant told the humans, 'You are created by me and I am your creator.'

How ridiculous was it? Yet this ridiculousness was the truth.

Xie Xi sighed and asked the middle-aged man, "Do you think we destroyed human civilization?"

The middle-aged man was stunned because asking with a small smile, "Are you testing me?"

Xie Xi became tense and clearly felt that this was an individual, a person with complex emotions who couldn't be calculated by any formulas.

Xie Xi asked in a straightforward manner, "Do you hate us?"

He must ask in order to test out this man's emotions, otherwise he wouldn't dare tell the man about the disaster the United States was facing.

The middle-aged man looked at Xie Xi and Jiang Xie before shaking his head. "No, I think the demise of humanity has nothing to do with you. Now you are independent living bodies, not humans or artificial intelligence. You are your own selves."

Xie Xi stared at him and saw his calmness and reassurance. He was like an old man looking at his grown up children.

Xie Xi sighed with relief. "We need your help."

The middle-aged man was surprised before laughing. "What can I do if you can't solve the problem?"

Xie Xi explained about the impending collapse of the universe, the discovery of the pole and the information about from the pole about how to find this person.

The middle-aged man was startled. "The pole?"

Xie Xi gave a detailed account, stressing, "That place can withstand the universe collapsing but it is only the size of a palm.

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows. "Why would the pole contain my coordinates?"

Xie Xi was also unclear about this question but they did find the only remaining human because of these coordinates.

After a long period of time, Big Jiang slowly accepted these facts and calmed down. "I don't think this gentleman can save the United States."

They came here, found the 'Creator' and even discovered the truth about the birth of the United States. Then what?

How could such a 'god' save the United States?

Xie Xi didn't speak.

The middle-aged man sighed. "I will help you."

Xie Xi's eyes lit up. "Do you have a method?"

The middle-aged man spoke slowly. "The palm-sized pole can't fit any organism but it should fit you."

Xie Xi had a vague guess but he couldn't believe it because he lived in the United States for so long and it seemed real…

The middle-aged man explained, "The thing you call an SSS-grade physique is actually the original super artificial intelligence. All artificial intelligence after that were copied from you."

Xie Xi hadn't thought of this and couldn't help being stunned.

"I still remember your source code and can write the entire United States into a hard drive the size of your palm." It was difficult to have such a small but large capacity hard drive in the Earth era but this was a super artificial intelligence. It must be capable in the new society built, even if they didn't need it before.

The three Jiang Xie were stunned.

The pole that could withstand the collapse of the universe was the size of a palm. No organic matter could survive but they could be put inside a hard drive.

Xie Xi was the first to regain his senses and couldn't help asking, "What about afterwards?"

The universe would collapse, the pole would remain intact and the new universe would be born…

The middle-aged man showed a gentle gaze, filled with erudite and wisdom. "The next world might be your world."

Initially, artificial intelligence didn't stay in an inorganic shell. People thought they could never live yet they evolved into such a magnificent civilization.

Facing the disaster of the universe, perhaps only inorganic matter could continue to exist.

The new world might be slowly built by them.

Xie Xi's task was to find the collapsed god. Finding the old professor didn't complete this task. Instead, the task was completed after making the 'hard drive' that contained the entire United States.

He couldn't believe it but this was indeed the right path. The moment the old professor started writing the source code into the hard drive, Xie Xi saw the progress bar of his main task slowly moving forward…

The three Jiang Xie were the first to enter the hard drive. They were the so-called first machine. It was only after they entered that others could follow.

It was hard to describe in words but once Xie Xi found himself leaving his flesh and blood and entering the hard drive, he felt an indescribable sense of completeness, a wonderful form of life.

Humans couldn't understand but this was really existence… life.

Xie Xi failed to see the birth of the new universe because after the hard drive was collected his mission was over.

Xie Xi had nothing to worry about. HIs task was completed, the world was repaired and the disaster was gone.

In the last period of time, Xie Xi and the old professor talked a lot. He deeply remembered a joke the old man said.

'I might be an incompetent creator but I can still save you.'

This ordinary and fragile god might be surpassed by his most ordinary follower but he still had true power.

Once Xie Xi returned to the centre, he felt that he seemed to touch something.

The Central Government might be ordinary, fragile and common but it was carrying thousands of worlds.

TL: I loved this arc so much. The world-building, the twist at the end, the three Jiang Xie, everything just hit the right spot for me. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
