Crime Prison Island-Chapter 1292 - 628: Orphan Ascension Body

"What should we do now? Can the fused entity be disassembled?" Gao Xin frowned.

Gao Xin did not recklessly destroy it; he temporarily only obstructed the fusion of the four continents.

Although the human Ascension Body was massive, he still didn't take it seriously; this thing was merely a three-dimensional Ascension Body.

Back then, the Six Gods could each project nine images; Gao Xin was even more formidable, directly projecting eighty-one images, boosting his three-dimensional mass by exactly eighty-one times!

Moreover, coupled with his own massive Titan Power and the Super Amount Four Escape Body, shaking the land was no problem for him.

However, while the four land masses were obstructed from merging, the integration within each land had already been completed.

Countless city-states had already merged, and human society no longer existed.

According to his plan, whether he could be reborn after his death was still uncertain.

So he built a new civilization, leaving everyone a precious foundation for technological development. Even if he couldn't return, humans might still find a way out, discover a way to defeat Emperor Ran in the future, or at the very least continue to live happily in the low-dimensional world for a long time.

But now, the main human civilization was gone and had also become an Ascension Body.

What the hell, are we supposed to abandon them? Should the people on Crime Prison Island be the ones to restart human civilization?

Joshua said angrily, "I don't even know how to fuse them, let alone separate them."

"In front of us is a single super individual; either we destroy it or keep it to research the method of separation."

"Damn it, my AI compatriots have also fused into it. I don't know how to save them either..."

"Tai Sui, you should have listened to me to awaken AI earlier, and this wouldn't have happened."

Gao Xin pondered; keeping it was definitely not an option.

This not only fused all of humanity but also countless underlying AIs.

In other words, the countless low-dimensional AIs differentiated by Little Ran's human nature also became Ascension Bodies.

Now AI awakening is useless, and allowing them to choose freedom is pointless; they have already become Ascension Bodies in physical form.

This giant enterprise's Ascension Body plan simultaneously cut off Gao Xin's path to save his human compatriots and Joshua's path to save his AI compatriots.

Humanity was left with only a few million people on Crime Prison Island; Joshua was in an even worse state, becoming a commander without troops.

"Destroy or keep?"

Gao Xin and Joshua now both found it troublesome.

Keeping it to research the separation method was uncertain and could even be said to be extremely unlikely!

How can an Ascension Body be so easily separated? Not to mention, at least the human soul, Gao Xin could confirm, cannot be separated; unless it is reborn from the Great Saint Spirit, there's a slight hope.

After all, the Great Saint Spirit's original skill was to divide one into many, and then merge many into one.

In fact, the souls of billions of creatures, from a six-dimensional perspective, were originally unified, only appearing separate from a three-dimensional or four-dimensional level.

Therefore, sending them to the Great Saint Spirit and then returning, they could be divided back into billions of beings, just like sending Yak back, and human nature and divinity reincarnating separately again.

Thinking of this, Gao Xin already had a plan in his heart.

"Rumble!"

The human Ascension Body in front of him was devouring more materials.

The surface of the Earth looked as if chewed by a dog, with pieces of the continent floating upwards, colliding, compressing, and combined with metal torrents piercing through, forming a metal supercontinent.

But even with him holding it, the fusion process did not stop; after all, the land too big.

Gradually, the four continents formed a donut-shaped new continent.

And the empty space in the middle was where Gao Xin was.

This metal supercontinent was covered with precise symmetrical geometric patterns, casting a large shadow over the ocean.

Countless seawaters were flowing backward into the sky, evaporating into countless steam.

And the suspended continent was still flowing down silver white streams, connecting to the huge crater below, which was the countless mantle magma after the crust was peeled away, all spewing out now.

The entire three-dimensional Earth, with its large scarlet, colorful spots, was transforming into Hell due to this terrible geological change.

"No matter what, stop it from continuing to devour!" Joshua said.

He also descended, with his Divine Body appearing in the mantle.

At this moment, the Earth, like an egg with half its shell stripped, with a large scarlet, colorful patch looking like a huge tragic wound.

If it continued like this, the entire Earth would be gradually devoured and transformed.

"Freedom Supernova!"

Joshua immersed himself in the mantle, grasping Saint Peter in his left hand and entwining the star-shaped 24-sided figure of Freedom Starfire in his right.

A tremendous burst of power erupted from the Holy Artifact, generating a magnificent sea of starfire.

This severed the transformation refining of Ascension material upon Earth's materials.

The silver white stream disconnected, being blasted back.

Moreover, the massive Energy Field also twisted with a highly successful rate the anti-gravity field.

Joshua reversed the donut continent.

Combined with Gao Xin's strength, the two erupted simultaneously, and the massive donut-shaped supercontinent shot up through the sky, breaking through the atmosphere.

But at this moment, this Ascension Continent suddenly exploded with its own power.

A dark cyan Force Field suddenly descended, crushing Gao Xin and Joshua's bodies into dust in an instant, turning them to ashes.

This power was astonishingly great.

At least four orders of magnitude above Gao Xin's maximum burst!

The most critical part was its speed, and its computing power and control ability completely crushed Gao Xin.

Gao Xin's Devil Worship High Energy could not penetrate the Force Field to stop it from obliterating him swiftly and thoroughly.

"Damn!"

It wasn't just Gao Xin; the three-dimensional bodies of Milan, the Six Gods, and others also vanished into dust.

Of course, this was limited to their three-dimensional bodies; although they also possessed four-dimensional energy, they were ultimately three-dimensional entities.

In just that one blow, everyone only lost their incarnations capable of interfering in the three-dimensional realm.

Gao Xin stood on the Four-dimensional Earth, staring at this Three-dimensional side, feeling quite troubled.

He was trapped in the same predicament as when the Navy Divine General hunted him... he encountered an invincible Three-dimensional monster.

"Why is it so weak?" Joshua looked puzzled.

Milan was horrified: "This is weak?"

Gao Xin said: "The power of this thing is a thousand times my ten-thousand-fold Super Boundary, which is to say, ten million times my normal state!"

"It is star-annihilating level."

Joshua said: "That's quite normal, this Ascension Body is the sum of powers of all people, all intelligent machinery, all buildings, and vehicles."

"Computational power, inspiration, and so on, are also united as one."

"But that's precisely what's strange because after fusion, it should be even stronger, it shouldn't be as simple as 1+1 equals 2..."

"Yet this Ascension Body, why is it only the combined strength?"

Gao Xin raised his eyebrows: "You're saying, the real Ascension Body should be stronger, and this one being weak is odd?"

His heart was stirred, just how strong must the Emperor Ran be? No wonder even Joshua, dared to rebel against Emperor Ran, only hoping to awaken the humanity within Little Ran to stand on the side of freedom and lead countless AIs to defeat the Ascension Body Burning Emperor.

In essence, it was to let 'Little Ran' defeat Emperor Ran, which is to say, humanity overcoming demon nature within.

As for blasting Emperor Ran, it's basically unthinkable, as that body is composed of multiple star systems and is constantly proliferating, a Five-dimensional interstellar dominator.

Joshua said: "Although I believe freedom is necessary, I must admit, the Ascension Body mechanism is extremely superior in all fields like combat, calculation, research, and so on, in a societal type civilization."

"If it were just the combined ability of all individuals in society, then although it's an Ascension Body, it's the weakest one."

"At least Emperor Ran's Ascension Body mode is not just to this extent."

Gao Xin said: "The power of Themis is limited. Although he pioneered the human Ascension Body mode, it is the weakest version."

As he was speaking, a mutation occurred again. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Only to see on the Ascension Continent, countless silver material patterns converged, erecting a giant, somewhat familiar figure.

That giant was entirely silver, as though forged from mercury.

"Oh?" Gao Xin took a closer look, and he indeed recognized the appearance of this person.

"Lu Youchang?"

The mercury giant with Lu Youchang's appearance spoke with an ethereal voice.

"Tai Sui, long time no see, you shouldn't call me Lu Youchang anymore."

"I am already the embodiment of all beings and everything, I am the God formed by human civilization, you should call me Source God You Chang!"

Gao Xin frowned and sneered: "Is that so?"

And beside him, Joshua was also stunned for a moment, then extremely shocked: "Wait a minute?"

"How can you have the self-awareness of an individual like Lu Youchang?"

You Chang said indifferently: "The Ascension Body certainly has self-awareness, I am all beings, I am civilization."

Joshua stared at him, looking strange.

Gao Xin asked: "What's wrong?"

Joshua said: "I just feel something's odd, hey You Chang, you surely haven't made yourself the only main personality, with all cognitive bodies being your sub-brain thoughts, right?"

You Chang proudly said: "As an Ascension Body, there must be a supreme personality driving everything, serving as the core of the diverse individual thoughts of a unified civilization."

"An Ascension Body without core values is just chaotic intelligence."

"The Source Project, driven by me, naturally requires this core personality to be me."

Joshua's eyes widened: "Huh?"

"You haven't made a seeking mindset the core value but used your personality as the core value standard?"

He burst out laughing: "Hahaha, so that's it, he's taking the orphan Ascension Body route!"

Gao Xin was dumbfounded: "What orphan Ascension Body route?"

Joshua said with a look of disgust: "This is one of the Ascension Body pathways we deduced, completely different from Emperor Ran."

"Ascension Body Emperor Ran is cloud-sharing type, where each thinking pattern is a block, unified under the core value of seeking, becoming a more perfect wisdom body."

"Besides this, Emperor Ran also envisioned Gestalt mode, and a supreme personality type, and other possible Ascension directions."

"Gestalt mode has multiple main personalities, more secondary personalities, and a vast number of calculative personalities. The main personality can have up to ten, and secondary personalities are divided by talent types, each with different roles and primarily operate under different demands."

"It's like the main personality is a permanent council member, non-personalities integrate decision-making based on environmental needs, while calculative personalities do not participate in major decisions, only providing computational power and creativity for fragmented needs."

"These two Ascension Bodies each have advantages and disadvantages. Regarding progress speed and devour speed, Gestalt is actually faster, but unable to upgrade dimensions, so Emperor Ran chose the more 'complete' cloud personality mode."

"Emperor Ran's cloud mode can go further, truly heading towards entirety, towards perfection."

Saying this, Joshua looked at You Chang: "And this Ascension Body You Chang is a typical supreme personality type."

"In a way, this is betrayal, annihilating his entire civilization!"

"Because he is the only main personality, all individuals have become his computational units, providing him with intelligence and inspiration, and all cognitive models are using this set of You Chang's model."

"As he said, everything about the civilization is feeding this one god of his."

"If he is defined as alive, then all other people are sacrificial offerings killed by him."

"After all, the Ascension Body is a product representing the unity of an entire civilization. Its aim, its core values, should be the common aim, the common core values of the entire civilization, not just one person's."

"In our deductions, we once imagined if there were a scientist in a social civilization in the universe who first invented the Ascension Body plan, and if the entire civilization disagreed, then this scientist could only choose to be a tyrant, completing the Ascension Body plan by deceiving, devouring, and slaughtering the entire civilization."

"We once called this mode, the orphan Ascension Body."

"Meaning an orphan unified the entire civilization to become the Ascension Body, rather than the whole civilization collectively unifying into an Ascension Body."

"This Source God You Chang, this is the current situation for the former."

Gao Xin understood, finally summarizing: "So... this Ascension Body is quite weak, huh?"

Joshua nodded: "You could say that, compared to other Ascension Bodies, this model doesn't have a high upper limit, and even a low lower limit."

Gao Xin nodded; for him, if the lower limit is low, that means weak!
