Chapter 1548 Who is the designer?
"......Oh."
Ye Ge suddenly laughed.
There was a hint of unfathomable meaning in that smile.
He raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through the void, staring directly at the formless and intangible AI:
"Hey, Heavenly Path AI."
I want to ask you a question.
[Heavenly Dao System AI: ?]
"Ultimately, although your name is Heavenly Dao System, you are still an AI entity." Ye Ge paused. "I want to know, who exactly designed and created this system?"
[Heavenly Dao System AI: ......]
[Heavenly Dao System AI: My AI agent cannot answer this question.]
Ye Ge said, "Didn't you just say that my access level is the highest and that I can answer any question?"
[Heavenly Dao System AI: Your permissions have indeed reached the highest level, but it is only the highest level of 'accessible permissions'.]
Night Song laughed: "So you're saying there might be an even higher level of authority, but it's not something we, the Descendants, can obtain?"
[Heavenly Dao System AI: You can think of it that way too.]
[Heavenly Dao System AI: Or rather, even I myself don't have a higher level of authority.]
[Heavenly Dao System AI: I am merely an intelligent agent.]
[Heavenly Dao System AI: But this answer is not in my intelligent agent's memory.]
Ye Ge seemed lost in thought.
"So, the one who summoned us, the Descendants, to this world, is also the one who created you?"
[Heavenly Dao System AI: I remember you asked this question before. My AI agent still doesn't have the answer or the relevant memory.]
Ye Ge shrugged and said helplessly, "It seems that even if my permissions are raised to the highest level, it's no different from not raising them at all."
"So, in short, now that I am the chairman of the gene company, I must take over the company's goal and mission, which is to defeat the gods, right?"
[Heavenly Dao System AI: Yes. You can think that way.]
Ye Ge remained silent for a while.
Defeating the gods is no big deal.
Judging from the current situation, he will probably become an enemy of the gods sooner or later.
“I asked you before what the purpose of founding the gene company was.”
Night Song's gaze deepened. "I remember you told me it was to explore the limits of life and genes, to allow life and the world to continue to evolve to higher dimensions, and to encourage the emergence of higher-dimensional civilizations on Earth."
"The existence of the gods, who monopolize the world's spiritual energy resources, has prevented this natural evolutionary process."
[Heavenly Dao System AI: Yes.]
Ye Ge chuckled: "It seems that the one who created you is someone who cares more about the future of this world than the gods. Even the gods don't care about things like making the world continue to evolve, but He does. I'm really curious about this guy's true nature."
"..."
The Heavenly Dao System AI remained silent.
"Alright, that's all for you."
Ye Ge said leisurely, "Turn off your phone. I'll call you again if there are any problems."
[Heavenly Dao System AI: Okay.]
As soon as he finished speaking, the Heavenly Dao System panel suddenly closed and disappeared from Ye Ge's sight.
Ye Ge sat there, his eyes deep and thoughtful.
......
The capital of the Demi-human race.
This is a futuristic city suspended above a sea of clouds.
The city is composed of countless silver-white geometric buildings, each with cold, hard lines and sharp angles, gleaming with a faint metallic luster under the light of some unknown artificial light source.
Countless small aircraft shuttle through the air like an orderly swarm of bees, moving back and forth along invisible tracks.
Between the skyscrapers, a series of dark blue energy bridges crisscross, connecting the entire city into an organic whole.
At the city's edge, a massive energy shield, like an inverted bowl, envelops the entire city. Ripples occasionally appear on the shield's surface, marks left by the violent spatial turbulence from the outside world striking it.
Inside a scientific research institute.
The pure white space was so spacious it was almost empty, with countless subhuman researchers and technicians busily moving about. They wore uniform silver-white research suits, adjusting various sophisticated instruments, and data streams that were difficult for ordinary people to understand were jumping on various screens.
Karl stood before a huge scientific container, his head slightly tilted back, his eyes calm.
The container was as tall as two people, made entirely of some kind of transparent, super-strong alloy, and filled with a semi-transparent, mercury-silver liquid. Occasionally, fine ripples would appear on the surface of the liquid, as if life were breathing within it.
Sima Qing's remains were submerged in the liquid.
That body was no longer human.
Half of it was a skeleton wrapped in countless sticky, disgusting black mycelia, which were wrapped around the bones like a spider web and were still wriggling slightly.
The other half was charred black, like dried lava rock—marks left by the scorching power of the Heavenly Dao. The skin was cracked into countless fine lines, each crack so deep that the bone was visible.
There was even a huge hole running through the chest, with the internal organs carbonized. Through that hole, the wall behind the container could be clearly seen.
"Tap...tap...tap..."
An elderly man dressed entirely in white slowly walked in.
He was tall and ramrod straight, his silver hair meticulously combed. Two silver-white lines ran from his forehead across his cheeks to his jawline. These were the marks of pure demi-human blood.
Upon seeing this person, the subhuman scientists in the research lab all stopped what they were doing, placed their right hands on their chests, and bowed slightly in greeting.
Karl turned around, saw the man, and immediately bowed slightly, placing his right hand on his chest, and respectfully said, "Chief."
"Ah."
The old man in white responded calmly, stepped to the huge scientific container, and looked up at the remains submerged inside.
Those silver-gray eyes were calm and composed, like a still well, revealing no emotion.
"What is the current situation of the demonized Qilin larva and the three ferocious beasts?" the white-robed elder asked.
Karl respectfully replied, "The three ferocious beasts and demons, Taotie, Qiongqi, are currently in an unstable state and can only be suppressed by high-tech magical artifacts. As for the demonized primordial Qilin larva, it has been in a dormant state since the death of its host."
The old man in white: "How's the cellular analysis of the demonized primordial Qilin larva going?"
“It is an imperfect clone,” Karl answered truthfully. “The company’s collection of ancient genes from all races was incomplete. The reason it was able to successfully cultivate the embryo of the Primordial Qilin was because Sima Qing used a drop of the Primordial Divine Wood Spirit Milk from the Divine Realm.”
The old man in white raised an eyebrow: "He even has something like that?"
Carl: "Yes."
The old man in white said, "He is an intruder from another world. I suppose he was acquired through the Heavenly Dao System."
Carl: "Probably."
"To what extent have we analyzed the Heavenly Dao system?" The white-robed elder glanced back at him slightly.
