After a long journey, Li Teng arrived at the launch base.

The door of the launch base was open, but judging from the small amount of volcanic ash that fell inside the door, it should have been opened not long ago.

Li Teng guessed that Anna knew he was coming soon, so she opened the door for him in advance.

Entering the launch base, not long after walking inside, I bumped into a broken robot.

Li Teng had seen this kind of robot once and attacked him as soon as they met.

So after seeing this kind of robot again, Li Teng rushed over without hesitation, preparing to give it a head-turning kill.

"Dad, it's me." Anna's voice came from the robot's mouth.

Li Teng quickly let go of his hand and took a few steps back, looking at the robot in front of him warily.

"It's me, Anna." Anna revealed her identity again.

"What's going on?" Li Teng asked.

"Humanity is facing destruction, but under Li Teng's leadership, a dream boat was built and stored at the launch base. But I don't know where it is. You should know, right?" Anna asked Li Teng.

"Mengzhou?" Of course Li Teng had no memory of this.

"As long as we find Mengzhou, we can save all mankind, and we can also save us." Anna answered Li Teng.

"Do you want to return to your human form?" Li Teng was a little uncomfortable seeing Anna's shabby robot image.

"Yes."

"Okay, but I don't know where Mengzhou is. Let's go look for it together. You can just tell me what happened."

"OK."

The two of them were talking while searching around the huge launch base.

As Anna talked, Li Teng gradually learned about some of the background settings of this plot world.

The background is set in 2121, which is one hundred years after Li Teng entered the film and television city from the real world.

"Actually, I am already dead, or in other words, no longer exist. The person I am now is just a backup you made of me.

"Ten years ago, there was an apocalyptic war. A nuclear war triggered tsunamis and volcanoes, causing all human beings to be destroyed.

"Except for this base.

"Before the end of the world, Dad, you were the boss of a multinational film and television technology company.

"Mengzhou Technology, a subsidiary of your company, has developed a complete set of artificial intelligence technology based on film and television systems. It has regularly backed up the brain data of humans on earth and stored them all in the underground database of this base.

“At the same time, a Dream Boat system has been established for artificial intelligence experiments.

"After the end of the world, the base should have started launching the Dream Boat system on its own, but it was not launched successfully because of the attack." Anna continued the introduction.

"What exactly is Mengzhou?" Li Teng interrupted Anna.

"A virtual world with virtual cities, forests, lakes, etc...

"After human brain data is uploaded to the dream boat, they can continue to survive in the dream boat."

Anna explained.

"Is it something similar to a data server?"

Li Teng asked.

"Absolutely. There is not enough energy on the ground to support the operation of Mengzhou. If you want it to keep running, it must be launched into space. In this way, as long as its solar cells are not damaged, there will be no physical failure.

, it can continue to run.

"Of course, it is impossible to keep running forever, but the existing technical conditions can at least ensure that the Dream Boat can run stably for thousands, or even tens of thousands of years.

"Only in this way can mankind continue." Anna replied.

"What kind of attack did Mengzhou receive that prevented it from successfully activating?" Li Teng continued to ask.

"Dad, when you were designing the Mengzhou system, an organization called the Resistance Army used hacking technology to attack your Mengzhou system. They did not believe that the brain backup in the Mengzhou system belonged to humans. They believed that your research

It is anti-human, so it has been doing various kinds of damage to the Mengzhou system.

"The launch failed because of the Trojan horse they implanted in the Mengzhou system, which prevented the system from passing the pre-launch review." Anna continued to explain.

"Then isn't this review self-inflicted? As a result, Mengzhou cannot be launched?" Li Teng asked.

"This...there are also remedies..."

"What remedy?"

"You and me."

"Well, after the destruction of mankind, the resistance organization should also be destroyed, right?" Li Teng asked again.

"Yes, but the resistance organization also has an artificial intelligence system. Their system is similar to a virus system. The crazy robots you encountered earlier were originally normal like me, but they were

After their virus is infected, it will attack or infect normal robots like us." Anna answered.

"Us?" Li Teng frowned.

"Dad, you are just...a robot with your brain data written on it...haven't you noticed that you don't have a human body?" Anna also realized something.

Li Teng touched his head and took a hard look at his body.

He finally understood that his body was not so bloated because of the protective clothing he wore.

It's because he is a robot now.

This so-called protective clothing is actually his body.

"In other words, you are not you now, and I am not me. We are just a backup of our brain data in the robot?" Li Teng understood.

"You can't say that. Whether you are you or not mainly depends on what you think. In a sense, as long as there is no other piece of brain data, you are who you are now. But this is not important anymore. Our first priority is

, is to launch Mengzhou, and we don’t have much time." Anna reminded Li Teng.

"All right."

After some searching, the two found the passage to Mengzhou's location.

The space in the passage is small, the light is dim, and it looks very depressing.

There are broken machines everywhere.

We also encountered a large number of robots infected by the resistance virus.

Li Teng has adapted to this body. With Anna's guidance and help, he also found some powerful weapons. Most of these virus-infected robots were seriously damaged and basically did not pose much of a threat to him.

After climbing countless flights of stairs, walking through countless rooms, killing countless infected robots, and consulting a large number of maps, the two finally arrived at Mengzhou's location.

Unlike the large-scale instruments and equipment as imagined, Mengzhou was only in a small secret room.

After getting the Mengzhou, Li Teng put it into the solar device and pushed the entire device into the launch platform.

Later, Li Teng and Anna transferred their brain data stored in the robot chip together into the dream boat.

Then, the launch button was pressed.

Mengzhou failed to launch.

The reason is the same as what Anna said, because the rebels planted a Trojan horse in the Mengzhou system, which prevented the system from passing the pre-launch review.

I ran the anti-virus program and restarted the system over and over again, but it just didn't work.

"How to clear the Trojan?" Li Teng asked Anna.

"I don't know about these technical issues either." Anna shook her head.

"What should we do?"

At this moment, sirens sounded throughout the launch base.

"The base's energy is about to run out, and the base will close in ten minutes..."

An electronic sound appeared in my ears.

The reminder that the base's energy was about to run out caused the launch system to pop up a new page.

"The energy of the base is about to be exhausted. Once the base is closed, the Mengzhou launch can no longer be carried out. Should we skip the pre-launch review and force the launch?"

Of course Li Teng chose 'yes'.

Finally, after a violent tremor, Mengzhou passed through the thick clouds and was successfully launched into space.

"Then what? Why are we still here?" Li Teng asked Anna.

"The brain data in our chip is only copied into Mengzhou, not transferred." Anna explained.

"What should we do next?" Li Teng asked again.

"wait."

"What are you waiting for?"

"Waiting for the base to close."

"Okay." Li Teng found a place to sit down.

Although the robot did not need to sit down, the habits in his brain made him sit down anyway.

Ten minutes later, along with the sound of the base closing countdown, all the equipment in the base gradually stopped.

At the same time, the lighting was also lost, and the surrounding area became pitch black.

"Are you still there?" Li Teng asked Anna.
