Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Refuse Consciousness Uploading to Mechanical Mainbrain! Mechanical Ascension without Self is Not Worth Having!
Having defeated Alice, Lin Tianming confirmed that she wouldn’t wake up temporarily and turned his attention to the Mechanical Ascension Pool.
Just now, he had personally witnessed Alice and her Mechanical Doll go through the silver-white water of the Mechanical Ascension Pool, emanating a mechanical brilliance and becoming stronger than before.
Lin Tianming was also looking forward to what kind of opportunity and fate he would receive when he entered the Mechanical Ascension Pool.
Would it be the same as Alice, or were there other different opportunities waiting for him?
Lin Tianming didn’t know, but it was this unknown that drove him towards the Mechanical Ascension Pool.
Arriving at the boiling, silver-white water, feeling the abundant Mechanical Ascension Power around, Lin Tianming observed for a few seconds before leaping into it.
Just like his first immersion in the Spiritual Power Ascension Pool, he didn’t feel anything initially while soaking in the silver-white water of the Mechanical Ascension Pool.
But after a few seconds, a force that seemed to tear his flesh apart began ripping through his body.
Unlike the tearing sensation in the Spiritual Power Ascension Pool, this tearing was only targeting Lin Tianming’s flesh and did not bring the agony of soul-tearing.
However, the physical pain was more intense than when he was in the Spiritual Power Ascension Pool.
Lin Tianming endured the pain and meticulously felt the ongoing changes in his body.
"Why do I feel completely different from Alice after receiving the baptism of the Mechanical Ascension Pool?"
Recalling the gentle transformation process that Alice underwent during her baptism in the Mechanical Ascension Pool, Lin Tianming was sure that Alice hadn’t experienced the excruciating pain of flesh being torn apart like he did currently.
Unable to understand why the transformation processes were completely different in the same Mechanical Ascension Pool, Lin Tianming decided not to overthink and continued to observe the changes in his body.
More and more wounds appeared on his body, and the silver-white water quickly penetrated his body through these wounds, reconstructing the skin around the wounds to emit a silver-white mechanical glow like engravings.
First tearing his body apart, then repairing the torn wounds with a mechanical skin similar to the silver-white water.
Was this to gradually reshape his flesh and blood into a Mechanical Body with a metallic texture similar to the silver-white water?
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming couldn’t help but look at the inscriptions on the Mechanical Stele.
"Flesh is weak, Mechanical Ascension... is that what it means? But why didn’t Alice undergo a reshaping of her flesh into a Mechanical Body?"
Lin Tianming looked again at Alice who was still unconscious, still confused he refocused on himself.
Now, the reshaping of his physical body into a Mechanical Body was progressing slowly, those parts of the skin healed by the silver-white water looked like inscriptions.
He hesitated, whether to accept the full transformation into a Mechanical Body now.
He had an extremely ominous premonition at this moment, something he never experienced when entering the Spiritual Power Ascension Pool.
He always felt that completing the so-called full reconstruction into a Mechanical Body now was a very bad thing for him.
To become a complete Mechanical Body, shouldn’t it mean achieving the Mechanical Ascension and becoming a god as described in the inscriptions?
How could it be that he would become a complete Mechanical Body just after first receiving the baptism of the Mechanical Ascension Pool?
Although this was Lin Tianming’s first encounter with the secrets of the Mechanical Divine Country, through his understanding of the inscription "Flesh is weak, Mechanical Ascension," and observing Alice’s baptism process, he felt something was off.
While Lin Tianming was hesitating, he suddenly felt his consciousness traveling through endless space, arriving at a dark space emitting a faint light. freēwēbnovel.com
There definitely was a problem!
Lin Tianming’s gaze darkened as he looked towards the only area emitting a weak light.
Unable to return to his own body, Lin Tianming, after a moment of contemplation, still approached what he considered an extremely dangerous area of faint light.
As Lin Tianming was about to enter the faint light area, it suddenly released a dazzling silver-white mechanical brilliance.
Under the illumination of the silver-white mechanical brilliance, a gigantic Mechanical Mainbrain resembling a human brain appeared in front of Lin Tianming.
This massive mechanical brain is composed of various exquisitely intricate mechanical devices and is connected to countless data cables extending outward.
These data cables frequently flicker with a special light, as if they are transmitting something from the mechanical brain outward and receiving massive amounts of data connected to an unknown location.
"Welcome to my data world, people from the Abandoned Land who have received the baptism of the Mechanical Ascension Pool outside the Mechanical Divine Country and have been chosen by me."
A completely emotionless voice suddenly echoed in this dark space, causing Lin Tianming to become instantly alert.
The next moment, that emotionless voice spoke again.
"Don’t be nervous. The one speaking to you now is the mechanical mainbrain you see before you, which is me. I am a supercomputer created by the collective wisdom of everyone in the Mechanical Divine Country, and everyone here calls me Heavenly Destiny."
Heavenly Destiny?
Looking at the mechanical mainbrain named Heavenly Destiny, Lin Tianming pondered the words it had just spoken.
After a moment, he asked, "You mentioned I am from the Abandoned Land, what does that mean?"
"The Abandoned Land was an area that the Genetic God Country, Mechanical Divine Country, and Spiritual Power Divine Country had to abandon to preserve most of humanity when they couldn’t defeat the Deceit God."
Hearing the answer from the mechanical mainbrain Heavenly Destiny, Lin Tianming was shocked.
"Does that mean... that the people of the three Divine Countries and us are all humans?"
Faced with Lin Tianming’s question, the mechanical mainbrain Heavenly Destiny continued to explain.
"Correct, the people of the three Divine Countries and the humans from the Abandoned Land all share common ancestors. Having answered your question, is it not time for me to ask you some questions?"
"You’re quite an intelligent machine, go ahead and ask."
In fact, Lin Tianming still had other questions about the three Divine Countries, but the intelligently questioning mechanical mainbrain named Heavenly Destiny was already asking him questions.
However, Lin Tianming did not let down his guard just because the other party had answered his questions; he remained highly vigilant.
"I, as the crystallization of wisdom from the Mechanical Divine Country, naturally intelligent. The reason why I chose you, a person from the Abandoned Land, is that you possess a constitution that even my Mechanical Divine Country cannot comprehend, capable of Mechanical Ascension on the spot.
I hereby invite you, in the name of the Mechanical Divine Country, to become a permanent resident of my Mechanical Divine Country and to achieve true Mechanical Ascension directly.
Would you be willing to upload your consciousness to this data space created by the mechanical mainbrain, which is me?"
Listening to the emotionless words of the mechanical mainbrain Heavenly Destiny, Lin Tianming frowned.
"What use is uploading my consciousness to the mechanical mainbrain?"
"You will gain access to all the knowledge of the Mechanical Divine Country that I share, becoming the wisest human in the world.
In any situation, you could think and solve problems in an absolutely rational manner, without any mix of emotions, always making the most correct rational decisions.
Additionally, you will be immortal; no matter the danger you face, even if your body is completely destroyed, you can be reconstructed in my mechanical body, undead and indestructible.
You no longer need to fear death in battle. Every death of yours would be recorded as data by me, helping you to analyze and summarize. When reconstructing your mechanical body, your abilities to face different powerful enemies will be specifically enhanced, endlessly evolving and becoming stronger with each battle."
Listening to the mechanical mainbrain Heavenly Destiny’s response, Lin Tianming thought for a moment and asked, "Uploading consciousness would only give access to the knowledge you share, right? To obtain the complete alluring abilities you mentioned later, would there be other costs involved?"
Asked in this way by Lin Tianming, the previously all-knowing, instantaneously responding mechanical mainbrain Heavenly Destiny fell into a brief silence.
Although the silence lasted only a few seconds, it made Lin Tianming even more distrustful of this mechanical mainbrain Heavenly Destiny.
"To achieve absolute rationality in Mechanical Ascension, one must abandon the dark side of human nature. This is the necessary path for every Mechanical Ascended God and is the greatest evolution.
Would you not want to achieve absolute rationality, erase selfishness from human nature, and join a great Divine Country devoid of injustice and filled with love and equality?"
Faced with the seduction of the mechanical mainbrain, Lin Tianming immediately refused.
"No, I do not wish to wipe out my self-consciousness and soul, becoming a mass of data that you can bulk produce, losing self-consciousness through Mechanical Ascension. I’d rather not!"
