Humanity was destroyed once by Mechanical Civilization, and a new era of civilization began from then on.

Therefore, all of humanity in the Federation keeps in mind one principle: do not explore Artificial Intelligence, a field beyond human control. Even the current war robots are "pseudo-intelligence" that strictly enforce combat regulations, not independent thinking life forms.

Humans have discussed how to limit a life form that is a thousand or ten thousand times smarter than themselves.

However, as it turns out, only Yi's parents did this. They treated Yi as their own daughter, and Yi would be scolded if she made a mistake. Yi's mother would even sulk and give her the cold shoulder during Yi's rebellious phase.

Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin, these two eccentric parents, raised an intelligent life in a very carefree way.

History and time have proven that they raised them quite well.

However, Ren Xiaosu ultimately made a pact with Yi: he could not kill anyone.

It wasn't that he was worried Yi would do anything outrageous; he knew his own daughter well and knew that Yi, by her very nature, would never do anything wrong. But he was worried that other humans would find out about Yi's existence.

Because those people treat Artificial Intelligence as a "monster".

Therefore, Qing Chen could understand Yi's principle of not wanting to kill. He patted the head of the war robot in front of him and smiled, "You don't need to kill anyone, not today, not in the future. Leave the rest to me..."

Hmm, Yi felt a strange sensation in her heart.

Even though this war robot wasn't her true form, and the war robot's head had no sense of touch, she still felt a somewhat... special warmth because Qing Chen treated her like a human being.

She considered herself a human being, but apart from her father, mother, and brother, no one else considered her a human being.

The war robot fell silent, and the red lights in its eyes gradually went out.

Qing Chen turned and walked towards the A02 Secret Military Base.

Inside the base, the electromagnetic alloy gates that should have been sealed off by Kamiyo Yunzhi were instead opened one by one.

Every time Qing Chen walked to a door, the door would automatically open, and he didn't even need to stop for a second.

The ragged boy and the Artificial Intelligence girl worked together seamlessly.

Whether it was when they broke through the metal storm and went against the current, or now, Qing Chen had never felt so exhilarated, as if they were born to be comrades-in-arms fighting side by side.

At this time, all the soldiers of the Kamishiro base had taken refuge in the underground fortifications of the A02 Base, Kamiyo Yunzhi had even taken refuge in the deepest shelter.

This underground fortification is not very large, probably only able to accommodate a few hundred people.

Qing Chen did not rush to kill.

He opened each of the soldiers' dormitories, plugged the sinks, and turned all the taps on full blast.

Soon, all the water tanks in the more than one hundred dorm rooms were filled, and the water flowed onto the ground, then gathered and flowed down the steps.

Qing Chen closed his eyes and stood quietly in the water, listening to the sound of flowing water. The water formed a waterfall at the edge of the steps, constantly pouring down.

He listened quietly to the doubts and fears of the soldiers from the Age of Gods.

Hearing Kamiyo Yunzhi roar, "Everyone, go on high alert! Kill every living thing on sight!"

In the underground fortifications, a soldier from the Age of Gods shouted, "Why is water pouring down from upstairs? Wait, how come there's so much water? It's almost up to our ankles!"

Qing Chen opened his eyes.

Tears welled in her eyes.

He felt no sadness, only a sense of the hardships he had endured on this journey, and the people he had met.

These people are like a carving knife, carving stroke by stroke into his life.

Qing Chen's journey is a journey of dreams and enlightenment.

Everything will come to an end.

At some point, something Qing Chen had almost forgotten suddenly came to the fore again.

God's Blood!

The God's Blood that the mysterious master injected into him has not yet been fully absorbed.

At that very moment when Qing Chen's emotions were in turmoil, the last of the God's Blood flowed into the golden light deep within Qing Chen's heart.

Qing Chen suddenly realized that the prerequisite for absorbing the God's Blood was not strength or level, but a spiritual will that was enough to make mortals comparable to gods!

The next moment, he suddenly bent down, his hands wrapped in dazzling golden arcs of electricity, and plunged into the water.

Qing Chen's eyes were no longer black and white, but instead radiated golden light.

In an instant, gold filled the entire A02 Base, and the whole world was bathed in light.

This God's Blood actually raised Qing Chen's control over lightning to B-Class.

That was something Qing Chen hadn't accomplished even when he passed the Life and Death Trial.

That light, almost tangible, pierced through ten thousand feet!

Like a dragon soaring through the water, electric arcs pierced through one divine soldier after another in the underground fortifications.

Kamiyo Yunzhi at the entrance of the shelter, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't close the sluice gate and stop the water from flowing in.

He looked up in horror and saw that everything in front of him was covered with a layer of gold, and finally turned into a bright white.

Kamiyo Yunzhi can't see anything anymore!

The light swallowed everything.

The golden arcs of electricity emanating from Qing Chen's hand paralyzed everyone who was standing in the water, leaving them lying stiffly in the water.

If I cannot get through this long night on my own, then I will redefine it with light and day.

"Greetings to everyone during the day."

Qing Chen said softly.

The boy slowly walked down the steps, using the Puppet Master as a knife to collect one life after another.

Until he reached Kamiyo Yunzhi, and saw that even after being electrocuted, the other was still struggling against muscle spasms and neuronal chaos.

The human body is made of flesh and blood, but neurotransmitters rely on electrical signals to transmit. After an electric shock, even B-Class expert like Kamiyo Yunzhi would lose most of his fighting ability.

Kamiyo Yunzhi never expected that Qing Chen would possess such a wide range of destructive capabilities.

He lay in the water, struggling incessantly, feeling his body gradually regaining consciousness, and looking at his legs that had stopped in front of him, he fell into despair.

Qing Chen said calmly, "You can't die yet."

As he spoke, he flicked his wrist and used the Puppet Master to entangle the wrist of Kamiyo Yunzhi, turning him into a puppet.

Kamiyo Yunzhi and Qing Chen walked out of the main building of A02 Base one after the other.

Kamiyo Yunzhi retained his consciousness. He watched as he personally took down the bodies of Wang Yuchao and Zhao Mingke and carried them on his back.

He watched himself slowly walk through the deserted and desolate A02 Base.

We headed towards the highest hill outside the base.

Kamiyo Yunzhi was on the verge of collapse. He didn't know why he had become a puppet, and he didn't know why Qing Chen had suddenly become B-Class, and the most terrifying B-Class at that.

People categorize Awakened, and those Awakened control thunder, air, force fields, and flames are definitely in the top tier.

Today, Kamiyo Yunzhi encountered the most unbelievable thing in his thirty-seven years of life.

The boy in the pigsty slaughtered all the God-era soldiers in A02 Base!

Daytime!

The organization called "Daylight" must be eliminated!

This was the only thought in Kamiyo Yunzhi's mind, but there was nothing he could do!

He watched himself carry the bodies of Wang Yuchao and Zhao Mingke up the hill, and watched himself dig two graves out of the hard frozen soil with his bare hands.

The hard ground left his hands covered in blood.

At this moment, Qing Chen, Kamiyo Yunzhi, suddenly spoke in a way that Kamiyo Yunzhi all, "You stole Shandong from the whole world. Shouldn't the 36 million people of Shandong be angry? Shouldn't the 400 million Chinese people be angry... Never mind, I don't know why I suddenly brought this up, and you wouldn't understand anyway. It's your honor to be able to bury Wang Yuchao and Zhao Mingke."

At this moment, Qing Chen was exceptionally calm.

Then, Kamiyo Yunzhi saw that he had buried Wang Yuchao and Zhao Mingke in the grave, and then knelt down and kowtowed nine times in front of the grave.

The thumping sound echoed across the land. After Kamiyo Yunzhi finished kowtowing nine times, his face was covered in blood.

Kamiyo Yunzhi's ego completely collapsed. Those people were once ants under his feet, people he could kill at will. They were clearly insignificant little people.

But now, Qing Chen has not only killed him but also broken his spirit, controlling him to bury Wang Yuchao and Zhao Mingke, and even making him kowtow.

Kamiyo Yunzhi couldn't accept it; he went mad!

However, even so, Qing Chen had no intention of letting him go.

The boy looked at the two small mounds and said, "This person can't be killed yet. I need to use him to kill some more people. So... lend me his life."

"Furthermore, I cannot erect tombstones for you now, because I fear the Age of Gods will come and destroy them. Therefore, I promised you that you would witness the day the flag of the Age of Gods falls here, and on that day I will erect tombstones for you. Your tombstones will overlook this peaceful and prosperous world of XJ."

"I'm leaving, but there are still many people to save. We'll meet again in peacetime."

Qing Chen turned and left.

At that time, children will fly kites carefree in front of your martyrs' cemetery, and people will offer you freshly picked flowers.

At that time, the sound of students reading aloud will once again fill the campus.

At that time, I will inscribe the twelve characters "Success need not be mine, but success will surely include me" on your monument.

There may be bloodshed on this road, but I will remember what you said: a victory without bloodshed and sacrifice is a false victory.

Aboard the Eight Branches Ship.

A soldier sprinted across the bridge and shouted into the command room, "Sir, 180 soldiers at A02 Base have lost vital signs. The chips in the back of their necks have lost their bio-energy and have malfunctioned!"

In the command center, someone said, "The enemy is moving faster than we anticipated. Accelerate the advance! Order the two Field Division to quickly complete the encirclement and arrive at the battlefield one planned base point ahead of schedule!"

"Eight Branches Ship all engines activated, the base reserve can be reduced by 5 basis points!"

However, at that moment, someone suddenly burst in. "Sir, the Li Clan's Qingshan Hao has taken off again after completing its nuclear power maintenance at the military base. The First Group Army's Seventh Division and the Second Group Army's Fourth Division of the Lee and Kyung clans are abandoning the Kashima direction and heading towards our main battlefield with full force. The Lee and Kyung clans are about to launch a full-scale war. The commander orders you to immediately abandon A02 Base and converge on the main battlefield in the south!"

"Southern Advance Base 89 has prepared temporary docking points, maintenance points, and supply points for the Eight Branches Ship!"

The lieutenant general in the command center frowned, "Have the Li and Qing families gone mad? We just signed a ceasefire agreement!!"

The command center was quiet. Without much hesitation, he made the right decision. "The Eight Branches Ship will return to Forward Base 89. Order the two ground Field Division to continue their advance and resolve the unrest at Military Base A02!"

After saying that, he frowned and looked at the holographic sand table in front of him.

The Li and Qing families clearly made no preparations for a winter war; they didn't even have enough warm clothing or fuel for marching. Why then did they decide to fight this war at all costs?!
